Image rotates when using the crop tool

New to Aperture my question is when I use the crop tool the image appears to rotate in one direction or the other. Then of course in limited to the size i can drag out the crop window by the edges of the photo itself. Any ideas

If you use the straighten tool first and then select the crop tool, Aperture will show the entire image including the parts that were cropped off during the straighten operation. Other than that, can't think of what you are seeing.

When using the crop tool the whole picture disapears!

When using the crop tool the whole picture disapears????
the screen is blank everything is gone!

1. Open the image file
2. Select Crop Tool
3. Click once in the picture to activate the crop tool (without dragging) <-- Once in awhile, I accidentally click and drag to activate, and the whole image turns gray, and I must hit undo.
4. Adjust crop edges

Aperture crashes when using the Crop Tool

I have tried using Aperture in 32 and 64 bit modes. I have the same problem in both when using the Crop Tool. Immediately after I hit "RETURN" key to finalize the crop I have chosen, the VIEW screen goes blank and the SPINNING BEACH BALL appears. I go to the "Force Quit" dialog and Aperture is highlighted in red--signifying a crash (unresponsive application).
THIS is happening more frequently.
Help!!

I had a similar problem. I solved it with these instructions on my blog.

Why when using the crop tool in Photoshop CS6 does it suddenly change the layer and file format?

I really need help with this. If I open a jpg in PS6 and crop it, the file transforms from a locked background layer to Layer 0 which is not locked. Then if I want to Save as a jpg I must flatten the layers as it is now a PSD file. SO frustrated! Anyone know what's going on?

Enable the Delete Cropped Pixels in the crop tool options up top—this is the phrasing in my PS-CC. I assume PS-CS6 has a similar crop tool option.
If you don’t delete the cropped pixels, they are just hidden, then a layer needs to be created to hold the hidden pixels.

My Photoshop Elements 9.0.3 will not crop photos as it did in the past. When I use the crop tool, the photo is changed to the size of a dot and is unrecognizable. Can this be fixed?

When i cropped a picture using the crop tool to 9x6" when it was printed everyone was stretched looking tall and thiner how can i crop pictures but keep the people looking as they do in real life?

oops put the while question in the wrong place!!! but I'm at a loss on how to do this every picture I took everyone looks stretched when I use the crop tool any help would be much appreciated,
I have PS6
thank you

I have been trying so hard to try and get my head round this since your last comment so what I think I know is with my Nikon d80 having 3:2 aspect ratio pictures that I wanted printed can only be the sizes you mentioned above which is fine as the pictures I got printed were 9x6" but it's from now I'm still bit lost when I use the crop tool and pre set the size to 9x6" with a resolution of 240 and crop out all the bits I don't want it comes back from printers stretched so i'm still lost as I don't know the point where I'm doing something that causes the stretching? thank you for your patience
Lets separate this into topics Aspect Ratio, resolution and size ... etc
Aspect Ratio is just the ratio of an image's two sides. Your camera captures an image with a 3:2 Aspect Ratio. If you want to print the whole image your camera captures it can be printed and image size that has sides the have a 3:2 ratio without distorting the image.
Images are re-sized two ways:
One way is to keep the pixels your camera captures and print them at different resolutions. Resolution is nothing more then pixel size. Pixels have no size till there is a resolution set. Pixels themselves may have a aspect ratio themselves. These days most devices use square pixel. Some video standards use non square pixels. So if you have square pixels and an image with 1800px by 1200px and set the resolution to 300DPI the print size will be 6" by 4" if you set the to 200DPI the print size will be 9" by 6". Its simple math. 300DPI means pixels are 1/300"x1/300" there are 90,000px/inch 200DPI 1/200"x1/200" 40,000px/inch 100DPI 1/100"x1/100" 10,000. Note how quickly the pixel count climes as resolution increase doubling an image resolution requires four times as many pixels not two timas as many.
The other way is to create a new image using the pixels you camera captures. Your Camera pixels are resampled(interpolated) into a totally new image not a single camera captured pixel remains intact the new image has a different numbers of pixels it a different image. There are different interpolation methods some work better then others depending on image content and the direction of the re-size. Any time you resample an image you loose some image quality. The pixels are generated they are not captured using optics and a sensor.
Normally I do not resample when printing I just set the DPI so the image prints the size I want. In the Image size Dialog I un-check resample and the set the print width or height I want to print. Photoshop will calculate the DPI and set the other side size. If you crop without setting a DPI resolution in the crop tool the crop tool will not resample the crop to a particular DPI it should just set the appropriate DPI.
I resample image for the web Cameras capture more pixels then can be display by displays. So in the image size dialog I check resample and constrain the width and height to the image current aspect ratio then I set the number of pixels I want the width or height to be. Photoshop will calculate the number of pixels the other side will be. The DPI is meaningless for web images for Web images are displayed on screens at the resolution a displays has. Your images will display large on a large Low DPI resolution HDTV screen and small on a high resolution cell phone display.
If you want to print you image a size that does not have a 3:2 aspect ratio without distortion you need to crop you image to the aspect ratio you want to print at. You need to discard part of your image. The Crop Tool does not distort it discards part of you image. It may or may not resample the crop selected. I do not use the crop tool but if I did I would not use it to resample the crop I would not set in a DPI resolution in the crop tool.
Photoshop can also resize an image from one aspect ratio to and other aspect ratio a non constrained resize. The resulting image will be distorted. However Photoshop does have have a content aware re-size that tries to maintain recognizable objects perspective during the distortion process. This process can also be aided by user masking.
Cropping:
A 3:2 aspect ratio image can in theory be cropped to an infinite number of smaller images that have any aspect ratios including an infinite number of images that have a 3:2 aspect ratio. All crops can be resampled to a particular DPI resolution. However digital pixels can not be sliced up so there are a finite numbers of crops you can hack form a digital image

PS4 crashes when I use the crop tool

I have CS4 Design Standard and it is loaded on my IMAC and Powerbook. When I use PS4 on my imac and use the crop tool, it just hangs up and I have to shutdown and restart. However, it works perfectly on my powerbook. Any suggestions?

First, just press the Clear button in the tool's Options bar.
You may simply have some values or units in the Options bar fields which are trying to generate a ridiculously large image.

How can I resize an image without losing resolution or using the crop tool? I am using Photoshop Elements 13 on a PC.

How can I resize an image without losing resolution or using the crop tool? I am using Photoshop Elements 13 on a PC.

Hi Peru Bob,
I've tried two images, the results were:
Image 1
Jpg, original file size 923KB, dimensions 848px x 279px.
After resizing to 848px x 180px with 72dpi, the file size decreased to 164KB.
Image 2
Jpg, original file size 809KB, dimensions 1200px x 1800px.
After resizing to 668px x 722px with 72dpi, the file size decreased to 307KB.
So, there seems to be a fair file size loss - is this to be expected?

When using the move tool and or crop tool my whole screen goes black

Hi 25Z4P,
Could you please take a screenshot of the problem you're encountering. I'm sure it is a black screen like you're describing, but it would be helpful to assess what is happening.
Thank you.

Adobe Photoshop CS4/5 Crashes when using the Move Tool

Hello. I'm here because I'm having an issue with Photoshop.
I was trying out CS5 when it started to crash every time I tried to use the Move Tool. It was the generic error message: "Adobe Photoshop CS4 has stopped working.
A problem has caused Adobe Photoshop CS4 to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
Thinking that it was a CS5 issue, I went back to my copy of CS4, only to find the same thing happening there (I also downgraded because CS5 was also crashing at other random times for some reason, but that's an issue for another time).
This puzzles me because both were working fine before. Granted, I hadn't opened them for a while, but it was a sudden thing.
My first impulse was to uninstall and reinstall CS4. No luck. So then, I uninstalled all third-party plugins, thinking that might be it. Still, the same problem. I started looking around on Google for solutions and found the instructions on resetting the Tool preferences (I chose to reset the preferences for ALL of the tools). When that didn't work, I tried deleting the preferences file outright, which said instructions recommended. Nothing.
I should note that Photoshop crashes when using the Move Tool to move an object without ant lines around it, i.e., a layer. I'll move the object, and after two to three seconds, the mentioned error message will appear and Windows will close Photoshop. This, however, only seems to happen after selecting, copying, and pasting part of a large object with some variation of the Marqee Tool (thus making that part a new layer by default) while working at a zoom of 100%. So, in short, working with a large image like <a href=http://www.wallpaper4me.com/images/wallpapers/ergo_proxy_267_1280-862301.jpeg>This</a> at 100% zoom. The image linked is the image that I was using and am currently using to reproduce the problem. It is 1280x1024 pixels. I have tested this with somewhat smaller, yet comparable images too. Same problem. I have never had this problem working with large images before, and I wonder if anyone has any suggestions short of formatting my hard drive.

Even a decent RAM upgrade is usually only a few hundred dollars nowadays, but it's not a trivially simple process. That said, with a little research and care you can do it. Alternatively, you can hire people (e.g., "Geek Squad") to do such an upgrade.
First, you'll need to know what your operating system capacity is. For example, a 32 bit Windows system can really only use up to a bit more than 3 GB of RAM, while a 64 bit Windows system can use all the RAM you can find a place to plug in. What version of Windows are you running?
Then you'll need to determine what RAM you have installed and what your computer's maximum RAM capacity is - usually you can do this through internet research, either by visiting your computer manufacturer's web site or doing google searches. There are even RAM manufacturer web sites that will tell you what kind of RAM your computer needs and suggest sources, for example:
http://www.kingston.com/
It may be that you can just plug additional chips into currently empty sockets, or it is possible you'll need to replace the RAM chips you have installed in your computer to make room for an upgrade. Every computer is different.
If you list your computer model and current RAM that you have installed here, it may be that someone can help with more specific advice.

Can you merge two user accounts on macbook? my wife has created a user on her new macbook , then inadvertently created a second one when using the migration tool. 1st ac has her office 365 install, yet 2nd has her itunes database, docs and contacts.

Can you merge two user accounts on a macbook? my wife has created a new user on her new macbook air then, inadvertently, created a second one when using the migration tool. 1st a/c has her office 365 install, while 2nd has her itunes database, docs and contacts. What is the best way forward to get everything into the one account? Not sure if the office 365 will allow another installation into the second account, otherwise would just do that and delete the first, if that is possible?

There is no merge but you can move data from one account to another via the Shared folder. Data is copied from Shared. Watch your free space when copying. These are large files. Do one at a time if you are on a small drive. After making copy, delete from other users before you start next copy.
Office365 installs in the main Applications folder and is available for all users on the computer. Activation is tied to the drive not the User.

Nobody can tell you anything without proper system info or other technical details. The standard answer with all text issues simply is, that you have a "bad font" on your system and need to get rid of it.

7. If you are using more than one video adapter, remove the additional cards.
Multiple video adapters can cause problems when OpenGL and Photoshop use the GPU. It's best to connect two (or more) monitors into one video adapter. If you have to use more than one video adapter, make sure that they are the same make and model. Also make sure that they both support the same versions of OpenGL and Shader Model. Otherwise, crashes and other problems can occur in Photoshop.
Note: Using two video adapters does not enhance Photoshop's performance.

Hi there - I think I am having problems associated withg Cause 9 in that in google mail I have another pop email address associated so that I can send using this email address, but then I have both addresses setup seperately in BIS. When I receive a mail from GMAIL I receive a duplicate with "received by: unknown" in the header. I had gmail setup so that it would send using by pop email address as default.
In your answer the settings for the two filters you recommend creating are broken links and I canot actually see them. What are they?
Also What do you recommend setup wise with gmail and a pop account. Some people say it is better to get gmail to receive the pop mail account and run the whole account from there. Blackberry doesn't seem to like this setup very much. Should I completely dissociate the pop account and to try and clarify the distinction between the two? Or should I setup a second gmail account and have that poll my pop account and then have the blackberry feed off these two gmail accounts? The reason I am considering this option is gmail provides a lot of storage and online continuity and this would effectively persist my account.
Your help would be much appreciated.. I have had blackberry woes now for over a month and I have spent hours with various support personel, tried deleteing and sending down new service books etc etc but had no luck yet.
thanks,
Nathan
