Images saved out of PS Extended showing up as placeholders in clients' e-mails

I have been having a problem saving images out of PhotoShop Extended (Mac) and sending them to clients or uploading them for clients to grab from web. They are showing up as placeholders only. I think this is just happening for clients using Windows e-mail and browsers but, since ALL of them do, I have to solve the issue.
By the way, I can save out of FW not have the same problem. However, I have to fix this. I am using PhotoShop all the time.
Help and thanks.

No. Not zipping files under 2MB. Just attaching "Windows Friendly" versions. They appear as little boxes with the red "x". I know prior to upgrading, I sent tif, eps, and jpg. Is it possible something has changed with CS3?
It's interesting that it's not just an e-mail problem. I can upload to my server and see the images perfectly in my browsers but the same customers see the same little box with the X.
As I mentioned, saving out of Firefox seems to be OK but is sure isn't convenient.
Any other ideas? Do appreciate.

Images saved in PS CS5 show as red boxes

The folks in the Photoshop forum say that this is a RoboHelp 7 issue, so here I am.
My company recently upgraded me from Photoshop CS2 to CS5. Now, when I update an image in CS5, it shows up as a small red square in RoboHelp 7. If I re-open the image in CS2 and resave it, it loads correctly in RoboHelp. I've checked the save settings in CS2 and CS5 and they match and have not been able to find anything in RoboHelp that would change how it loads images saved in CS5.
So, is there a setting I'm missing in either CS5 or in RoboHelp that would get the images to show up correctly in RoboHelp?
Thanks in advance,

Hello again
I've been performing my own testing from this end. I just used an existing JPG image, then edited it in PS5 and saved back as JPG and am seeing what you are reporting. Definitely something is amiss here. CS5 HAS to be doing SOMETHING to the format because as you said, if the image isn't touched by CS5 it appears just dandy. But once you make any sort of a change to it in CS5, poof! (or is that a crash?)
I reached out to a Photoshop guru friend and she is stymied as well. Said it shouldn't be happening. As a workaround, you can save as PNG and that should work. I'll send a note to the RoboHelp developers and see if they have an answer. Maybe they can engage in a conversation at Adobe that will result in something.
In the mean time, you should consider filing a Bug Report on this to report it to Adobe. I'll also report from my end. (Link to the Bug Report form is in my sig)
Cheers... Rick

When saving out transparent web pngs, they are showing up 'dirty' in other applications (like Gimp). Help?

I've linked one of the images in question; a 16x16 px icon for a settings page we're using. When this image is opened in another program (Gimp, in this case- the dev team does not have Photoshop), they are finding 'dirty pixels'. Specifically, if you are looking at the image, just above the base row of blue, where it should be white, it's showing up as a 10% transparent blue row all the way across. This does not appear in Photoshop, nor can I remove this area by deleting, etc.
I assume the issue is either how it's being saved out, in which case, is there a best way of saving out small transparent web images? Or, the issue is with Gimp (which I would be happy with), I am just not familiar with the application to know. Or, I am just creating the images wrong.
Thanks!

This what i see in gimp
Maybe this is what they talking about, that there is some blue areas that should not be there, yet are after filling in the alpha channel (transparency channel in photoshop)
Same as doing Layer>Layer Mask>From Transparency in photoshop.
Upon opening in gimp
After filling in the alpha (transparency) channel
Which version of photoshop and operating system did you use?
When i tried several different variations in photoshop cc 2014.1, i always had visible pixels that shouldn't have been there after saving as a png
Doing the same in photoshop 6 yielded the expected results of what was there before, was there after saving and no more.

Problems with images greyed out. Downloaded folder not showing up in Left Panel

Downloaded folder and it showed up in Lightroom. Next day images greyed out Folder doesnt show in Left Panel. Lightroom says no images to Import. What do I do?

Thanks so much dj for your response. Unfortunately I did start in the Library module and the folder wasn't there to click on. It was really strange, but the usual 'Previous Import' link wasn't showing anything! That's why I tried to reimport.
If the folder doesn't show in your Library module, then you probably (accidentally) imported the photos using the MOVE option instead of the ADD option. You have to search for the desired photos by file name, and NOT by folder. Perform all of the following 4 steps, and you will find your photos
Go to the Catalog Panel on the left in the Library Module and click on All Photographs
Turn off all filters (Ctrl/Cmd-L once or twice)
Expand all Stacks (Photo->Stacking->Expand All Stacks)
Search by file name

Saving photostream to iPad or show photostream images on map

Hey all,
myt iPad crashed one week ago. It was completely broken, but I could still save my images.
Now, I have a new iPad and I copied all the images onto the new iPad via the upload folder of windows that does an automatical synchronization with the photostream.
Now, I would like to show the pictures to my family by showing them the card and the different places I've been. But the images from the photostream don't show up on the map.
I also tried to kind of "save" the images of the photostream on my iPad but this didn't work either ( I copied them to an album, which worked fine, but only a few showed up in "camera roll" or "photos". Those that show up in the camera roll and in photos, are also shown on the map.
Any solutiooojns for that?
Thanks!
yokolini

I'm not clear on your problem
if you select a photo in an event in iPhoto and press the delete key and then empty th eiPhoto trash and teh system trash that photo will be gone
They originated from Adobe PSE 11 which infiltrated my Library.
Please explain exactly what you mean by this
I manually deleted them fro MacBook
What exactly does this mean? Are you saying that you used teh finder to delete photos from the iPhoto library? -- NEVER do that

Colour profiles problem - images saving too dull. Please help.

I realise you have probably had this question a million times before and I have looked at enough related threads, but I am still at a loss as to what to do. Please note I'm not the most computer-savvy.
For the record I am using Photoshop 7 (yes it's old, but it suits my needs just fine!) and Windows Vista Home Premium.
What I do is take photographs of my artworks, edit them in Photoshop until they look accurate, then post them online. Images have always looked identical in every program, and I had never had any problems, until I got connected to the Internet on Tuesday. This computer has not been connected to the net for a good few years, and so lots of updates got installed. I'm not sure which ones exactly, as my boyfriend took care of that, but I'm convinced this has caused the problems I am having now:
First I found that an image I had edited and saved as .jpg for web use was showing up overly saturated and contrasty in the Windows Photo Gallery preview. I assumed I had saved it wrongly. I re-opened the jpg in Photoshop to check - it looked exactly as I had saved it. I figured something had messed up with Photo Gallery during updates, so I uploaded the jpg to the Internet. The image that uploaded was the overly-saturated, contrasty one.
After realising that suddenly ALL the images I had uploaded online, and all the images saved on my computer, now had this awful over-saturated look, and yet the thumbnails on my desktop looked fine... I realised it must be something to do with the colour profiles, and tried to find out the answer online. My monitor colour profile was set to "21.5 inch monitor" so I changed that to sRGB as default. I can't remember what Photoshop was set to, but at any rate I set it to sRGB also.
I thought I had it fixed, as it seemed to just be Photo Gallery that was not matching up (it was displaying my images with less saturation than as I saved them).
However today I took a new photo of a drawing I'm working on, to load onto my blog. I had to take it into Photoshop to make edits and correct, as always. I opened my photo in Photoshop... lo and behold, far too contrasty and saturated!!
This time, Windows Photo Gallery preview is showing the (unedited, straight out of camera) photo as it should be... Photoshop opens it too contrasty.
I made my edits anyway, saved for web as .jpg, checked the jpg in Photo Gallery before uploading... It saved duller than it should have done!
Uploaded the jpg to the internet... and I have the dull image uploaded.
So first they were too contrasty, now they're too dull. I have tried to follow advice given on similar topics, to no apparent avail.
Being an artist who displays work online and has a certain reliance on the internet... my images have to be accurate and consistent all the way through. Is there anything I can do to set things back to the way they were before?
I appreciate any help.

eartho - All my images are already converted to the sRGB colourspace by default, as far as I can tell. My images out of camera, the ones I have edited and saved as jpg - I even checked some old images. Through Mode/Convert to Profile, they're all already set to sRGB.
emil emil - Thank you. I will do that in the morning - right now my head hurts and I need my bed.

PSD files saved for web and devices show up as broken when opened Dreamweaver. How can this be fixed?

PSD layouts saved for web and devices show up as broken links in dreamweaver. Previews in browsers are fine, but I keep getting and error message that says the files have been blocked. What is the fix for this?

You can also try out Project Parfait. It's a new experiment from Adobe that’s currently online and free to try out and use.

Image from blog entry page not showing up on 'home' page of blog

My first blog entry went well. I created a blog first page, then created an entry, and dragged a picture to that entry. I saved, published, and all looked great. Even the comment area worked. But when I created a second entry page, and dragge a picture to it, and saved, the photo is not showing up on that first page of the blog, the one that reads like a list only with a picture and teaser part of the entry...See http://web.me.com/brendatharp1/brendatharpblog/OnTheRoad/OnTheRoad.html
The entry listing is there on the first page, and when you click on the title link, it takes you to the entry page and the photos are there. I noticed that on the first page, the Sept 13th entry with photo is inside a text box of sorts - this was the layered paper template I used and then modified. Dbl-clicking to make that box interactive shows the black floating box for dealing with the placement of the photo in that list; but that box only relates to that one photo from the 13th. If I drag and drop the 15th's photo there, it just sits over the text and doesn't interact. AND I didn't have to do that with the first entry. Any ideas out there? Thanks much, Brenda.

Does this thread help http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1711038&tstart=15
I have experienced this and it was because I removed the placeholder and just added the image on the entry page. I duplicate blog entries and delete content to add new stuff so don't have to reformat every time, if you do that don't remove the image just add on the top - it should replace the previous image. Hope this helps, it is frustrating at times but the more you learn the easier it becomes.

Need to save the image saved in the System Clipboard in using JDK 1.3.1

I don't want Firefox to "remember" the folders I've saved in from websites before. How do I return Firefox to its old image saving habits?

I recently got a new computer and upgraded to Firefox 8. Now, when I save an image from a website, Firefox will "remember" and, the next time I save an image, open a random folder that I saved an image in last time I was on that site, and choose to save it there. This wouldn't be a problem if, 1) it wasn't a random folder out of the several I save into, and 2), if I have to cancel out of an image for any reason, the next time I go to save (seconds later, without refreshing/leaving a page), it will have chosen another random folder for me to save in and I'm misplacing my files.
I'd like to return Firefox to the previous image saving habits, where I have to choose the folder each time, and it doesn't "remember" anything that I've done, as it is only causing headaches.

I have been frustrated by the same aggravating Firefox 8 "improvement".
I have several hard drives, several partitions on each hard drive, hundreds of folders on in each partition, and hundreds of subfolders below them. When I am researching something, I download whole Web pages, PDFs, JPEGs, FLVs, and many other files from all over the Web. It is totally frustrating to be taken to different drives all over my computer each time I want to download a new file to the same folder I jut downloaded to. I have to drill up and down drives and folders to get back to where I was.
In previous versions of Firefox, Save As opened in the last folder I saved to, and all I had to do was create a file name and hit Save. In Firefox 8 I am taken to some totally unrelated subfolder on some totally unrelated drive. The folder in which I last downloaded a file from Wikipedia, Fox News, BBC , Flicker, or any other URL usually has absolutely nothing to do with what I am presently researching.
Why would anyone want to make the default download be the desktop? Total clutter and confusion. All I want Firefox to do when I hit the Save As button is to open the same folder I last downloaded '''''anything''''' to irregardless of the URL.
Is there some way via modifying the about:config file that I can change this behavior of Firefox 8?

Saving out .tiff to .jpeg using "Save As"

Hi peoples,
I hope you can help me with this saving out issue i have,
If i open a .tiff from lightroom into photoshop cs6 with LR adjustments, I click "save as" .JPEG in a new location, I am now editing the .jpeg and not the tiff.
Yet if I open the same .tiff from file explorer and not LR and "save as" .jpeg in a new location, I am still editing the .tiff (This is what i want because i want to create an action which will save multi jpegs into different locations, with various color profiles, i want to ensure these jpegs are the best quality possible, therefore i want them saved from the .tiff as the source and not another .jpeg!)
Hope you understand
Thanks for your help

No in both cases your editing a Photoshop Document. Photoshop is not a file editor. It open files into a document and it save files from documents. When you save a file the document you were exiting is still open in Photoshop. The document may have layers Tiff file camnalso have layers however if a tiff file is layered LR can not handle these layers it does not support layers. I have no use for lightroom one reason is it lack of layers support.

Again Photoshop Open files into documents and works on documents. If you use save as and save a Jpeg fron a document you opened from a Tiff. The Save As would not delete the Tiff file there would be two image file on you disk for the image, The original Tiff file and the new saved jpeg. The image may or may not look the same it depends on what you did in Photoshop before saving the jpeg and wither or not you also save out an updated tiff after you saved the jpeg.

Images saved from Mobile Safari are significantly degraded

When I tried to use an image saved from Mobile Safari as my wallpaper I noticed that it looked horrible. It was blurry and more importantly the dynamic range of the image had been compressed, blowing out all the detail in the bright areas of the image and making it contrastier. This is especially bad on the type of photo I was trying to use, a high-key image, where most of the detail is in the light tones. Much of the image was simply displayed as blank white.
As a test I tried emailing the image I had saved into Photos to myself and compared it to the original I had saved from the web. Sure enough, the image was blurrier and had less dynamic range so it's not just an iPhone display issue. Also, the image was only 27% smaller in file size and the pixel dimensions were actually slightly increased. A quick re-save in Photoshop with JPEG quality set to low (4) reduced the file size by 53% while still not affecting the image anything like what the iPhone did. So it doesn't make sense that the poor quality is only due to resizing for faster transmission.
Can anyone else confirm this or replicate the issue? I've verified this with a 1st gen and 3G iPhone side by side, both running OS 2.1.

No, it's not only you.
I noticed it too. As a matter of fact, I just posted a really long post in a thread about iPhone/iPod Touch's photo quality.

Images saved in Photoshop appear with distortion horizontally across - like a faint line

Images saved in Photoshop appear with distortion horizontally across - like a faint line.
It happens in all formates I try such as JPEG, TIFF, PDF and PSD files.
It looks like broken pixel lines across and if it runs through a word or logo can break it up.
Please help???

I know you cant see probably from the photo below as I had to try to block out the faces, but the person on the far right, under her eyes you can see almost a double eye and then if you follw that line across the 2nd person from left look like funny chin.
This distortion happens horizontally.
Also see the letter number below. That break line runs across the entire page but is obviously more noticable in different areas of the image.

JPG Image saved in CS4 not opening in IE,but works in Firefox

Hi All,
I have received images from my client which are edited & saved in CS4. But when i m trying to open these images in IE its not opening, but it is opening in Firefox.
Wat is the solution for this??
I m here attaching a file in which i have shown the screenshot of IE and Firefox. And also the properties of images saved in CS3 and CS4.
Please mail me at [email protected]

Are the documents all RGB? Most browsers don't speak CMYK.
Also, next time, use the camera icon to add an image, don't put them as attachments -- the virus scanning queue for attachments is busted at the moment.
