IPhoto 11 duplicates photo when modify it with photoshop

Hi friends! I have a problem: now with iphoto 11 when I modify a photo with photoshop a new foto appears in iphoto library ( with iphoto 9 the original photo was updated and not duplicated! ). This is a problem for me !
Can I change this setting/ error ?
tnks !!!

I agree that it's a bad idea feature if it were intended. Now you have another 2-5 Mb photo and it's not easy to tell which is which. AND if you open it a second and third time to continue editing you get a second and third copy with NO way at all (not even date/time info window) to distinguish them!).
Apple, fix this please!

That's not the workflow that I use. I have my Lightroom preferences set to create TIF images when going to Photoshop. I keep the original raw file and the TIF image (usually reduced to an 8-bit image) and only export JPEG's when they are needed to send to a lab or to send to someone over the Internet. JPEG files are highly compressed. I only create them when they are needed, and they are discarded as soon as they have been used for their intended purpose. I keep the raw file and the Photoshop-created TIF in my library. This requires extra disk space. But I always have the highest quality files available.

What version of Premiere? And is it Premeire Pro?
Premiere Pro has a feature to export a still frame, which I would think would fix any pixel aspect ratio issues automatically.

IPhoto crashes when I edit with Photoshop!

Whenever I edit an iPhoto photo using Photoshop, iPhoto crashes when I try to import it back into iPhoto. This happens whether I export the photo, Photoshop it, and re-import it, or whether I use iPhoto Preferences to select Photoshop as my editor. I can import other photos into iPhoto, just not photos that have been edited with Photoshop. Help would be much appreciated!

Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

IPhoto duplicates photos?

I am wondering if someone can clarify this for me. I always download my photos directly from my camera to iphoto. Once they are on my computer, I will go through them and delete the ones that are not any good. I was then looking in my finder and noticed that the ones that i deleted are still found on my computer. Is there anyway to stop this from happening.
Also I have noticed that if i use iphoto to edit a photo, I find duplicated of the picture in my finder (usually in the form of an original size file and a smaller one).
Any thought onto why this is happening and how to stop the Mac from making duplicates?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. First, are you emptying the iPhoto Trash bin after moving the photos to the trash? If not then the photos will still be in the library and on the HD.
When iPhoto imports a photo into the library at least two files are created, the original and a thumbnail file, located in the Originals and Data folders accordingly. If the photo is a portrait oriented image and comes from a camera with the auto-rotate capability a 3rd version will be created and placed in the Modified folder. If you edit a photo a modified version is created so that the original file, the digital negative so to speak, is left untouched. It's the nature of the beast.
That is how iPhoto works and you should not rename, move or delete any file or folder inside the iPhoto Library while you in the Finder. If you do you'll damage the library and have to start over from scratch.
If you need to use photos outside of iPhoto then read Terence Devlin's treatise on file access for use outside of iPhoto.

I keep getting duplicate photos when downloading from my card reader.

In my PSE11 Camera and Card Reader preferences I have checked "Copy new files only". Yet whenever I download a camera card that still contains photos that were previously downloaded, I end up with duplicate photos in PSE11.
I prefer to leave my photos on the camera card as a "backup" in case of a hard drive crash or other loss of data on the computer. Once the card is full I archive it.
Why do I get duplicates even though this setting makes it clear that I should not? It is very annoying having to look through my photo collection and manually delete dozens or hundreds of duplicate photos.
Thank you.
Jon

First, try contacting the developer of the app here > http://support.aspyr.com/home
If you do not get a reply within three to five business days, report the issue to Apple here > Apple - Support - Mac App Store - Contact Support
Apple's policy states, "all sales are final" > TUNES STORE - MAC APP STORE -TERMS AND CONDITIONS but if you explain the error and you haven't received areply from the developer, it can't hurt to request a refund.
You're sure there's enough free space on the startup disk?

IPhoto 11 bug when using external editor (Photoshop Elements)

In iPhoto 11, my iPhoto database is confused/corrupted whenever I edit a picture in my external editor (Photoshop Elements 8). I believe this is an iPhoto problem because the picture is not corrupted until I quit iPhoto try to re-open the edited version.
Steps I take:
1. Pick a file, and "Edit in External Editor". Duplicate of the file is made (ThisPic.jpg becomes ThisPic_2.jpg), and that duplicate is opened in PSE. I edit the photo in PSE, and hit Save - PSE updates ThisPic_2.jpg. I close PSE, go back to iPhoto, and I can do whatever I want to the file - double click to view larger, export, everything seems fine. When I pick "File | Reveal in Finder" and use either the "modified file" or "original file" option, they take me to ThisPic_2.jpg in the finder.
2. Close iPhoto
3. Re-open iPhoto
4. Now, that file seems to be corrupt in iPhoto. I can see the thumbnail image for ThisPic_2.jpg, but nothing else works. I double click on the file, and I get a black screen with a triangle and an exclamation point in it. When I try to export the file, nothing happens.
The interesting thing is when I go into "File | Reveal in Finder". When I pick the "modified file", it doesn't seem to find it - I am shown the root of my hard drive in the finder. But when I pick "original file", it takes me to ThisPic_2.jpg, and I can use preview to see that my edits are still there.
I copied that file to the desktop, re-imported it into iPhoto, and I can access that photo again through iPhoto - everything works, even after I close and re-open iPhoto.
I reported this through the iPhoto Feedback option. I thought I'd share what I found in case it helps anyone else.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. I get the same response when I follow your workflow. If you select the thumbnail of that photo and use the Photos ➙ Revert to Original menu option you will be able to view the photo in full size.
Evidently editing in iPhoto with an external editor puts the edits on the duplicated original file and puts that file in the same Masters subfolder as the first file was imported into. Once iPhoto is restarted the links are messed up and the Revert gets rid of the "edited" link and keeps the link to the file in the Masters folder.
It definitely is a bug. However, it's not taking up more space on the hard drive than the edit that resulted in a modified file linked to the original file. There still are just two files.
Subsequent edits to the file with the external editor result is the edits being added to the file with no problems if iPhoto is closed and relaunched. The downside is that if you make 3 edits to the file you can't go back one edit. It's non reversible. The edited version can be deleted leaving the untouched original version.
Subsequent edits to the same file with iPhoto work as usual, with a modified version being created.
So Old Toad, I have just gone from iPhoto 9 to iPhoto 11 and step by step this is what is happening for me.
In iPhoto 9 if I selected photoshop to alter an image it created one duplicate version of the image and put that into the modified folder and that edited image became the image you would see in the events viewer. All very logical.
Now iPhoto 11 is doing the same for me but is creating multiple duplicates ie. everytime I select photoshop to edit an image. One image I edited recently has now got 6 versions in the library. If that is the way iPhoto works then that will be fine as it is doing it's job for me but the caviat is have I got 6 times the memory space being used up or does it just appear that way? If the memory space useage isn't being increased then I am OK with this new way of doing things but if the memory space is being used up then it is a fiasco - especially as apple are concentrating on writing their systems to use up less space than before in line with current thinking.
Look forward to you clarifying this point if you can.

Bridge cc duplicate photos when downloading from camera

When downloading photos via bridge cc from a nikon d800e, all photos duplicate, two of each photo. Any suggestions appreciated...

Hi Lawrence -
Thanks for your response! I'm on a Mac so my options are different, but I think about using a more basic viewer and went to iPhoto and looked at the pictures on my phone as a device, and they all look fine (or some are not duplicates) - so maybe it's just a Photoshop import thing or ghosting issue?

How do I create full width photos for a website with Photoshop - Fireworks - Dreamweaver CS3 ?

Greetings & Help!
I'm trying to create a full width photo layout using Photoshop or Fireworks CS3 and then end with Dreamwaver CS3 without the photo's being tall.
Exactly as the following websites - which all seem to be using the same size of photo or very close to it.
This site is static with full width photos that are not tall.
http://www.jenniferhandyproperties.com/selling
This site is static for the most part and full width photos that are not tall
http://www.gnvpartners.com/web/
This site is Flash with full width photos that are not tall.
expodesigncenter
I would love to create a flash site just like expo but at this point I would settle for a static photo with the same size being the same on each page.
Also I would like my site to be a liquid layout so the photo and everything else (text, Links etc) on the page flows correctly.
The problem...
I'm trying to use photo's from Istockphoto.com. The size of the photo's they offer are
425 x 282 px (5.9" x 3.9")
849 x 565 px (11.8" x 7.8")
1698 x 1131 px (5.7" x 3.8")
I'm selecting horizontal photo's. I do not know how to match the same width, height and appearence as the websites I mentioned above.
If I choose a photo that fits the width then the length is too long. Also if I choose a large photo and have to crop it then most of the detail of the photo is lost.
I'm attempting to create a mock-up for my web in Fireworks CS3 and after search Adobe and www I came across the mock up should be 1004px which would end up being 1024 with vertical scroll bar and small margins.
I also have Photoshop & Flash CS3 but should mention (if you haven't already guess it by now) I am a rookie when it comes to creating a website.
So if you can offer a solution in "Non-Tech Terms" I would appreciate it.
Thank you in advance for your time.

In the second example, the photo is set to background with a tile. The other parts are over top of the photo and done with layers with a background color setting.

Help: Iphoto 6 photos missing, gray box with exclaimation point

Hi all. I am a terrible manager of my 14K photos. My husband said my system could not process updates because I have so little hard drive space, so I went on this massive effort to purge photos I did not need. I thought I was being virtous by going to the pictures folder from finder, finding the album, and deleting there, but now I have learned that I actually need to delete from the iphoto library. Now, when I go into i photo, there are a lot of big empty gray boxes with an exclaimation point, including for photos I know I did not delete (I can still see the thumbnail in some cases). I am using i photo 6 and would hate to lose these pictures. We have an external hard drive and I was in the process of moving some of the files and videos. Can someone help? I am also wondering what the best way to clean up my library is. Thanks in advance for anyone who can help! I live abroad and so can't go into an Apple store for help. Thanks!

That's an indicagtion the the file path to the original image files has been broken. Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
Happy Holidays

I get duplicate photos when I sync my iPhone 6

When I plug my iPhone 6 into my iMac, duplicates of each photo on my camera roll appear in iPhoto.
I have Photo turned off in iCloud.
Any ideas?

Hi KiwiniD,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
I'd like you to please check a setting on your iPhone that might be causing this issue where you see duplicates of each photo. The setting is for HDR photos, and if you keep the normal version as well.
Settings for Photos are in Settings > Photos & Camera. These include:
iCloud Photo Library beta, My Photo Stream, iCloud Photo Sharing, and Upload Burst Photos
Photos Tab
Slideshow
Camera Grid
HDR (High Dynamic Range)
Photos settings - iPhone
Take care,
Alex H.

How to move photos to external harddrive with Photoshop Elements Organiser 9 - Mac user

I have managed to move a few photos using the organiser to an external harddrive as a trial but noticed that the photos are all stored straight onto the external harddrive and not kept in the subfolders that they are in on my harddrive. Is there a way to keep them in the subfolders - which is basically mostly folders indicating the date they were taken?
I also noticed that PSE 9 organiser is very slow - I have a lot of photos and a lot in raw - about 21000. Is it better to use LR to catalogue them?
Last question, has anyone else experienced problems since upgrading to Mavericks when using PSE9? Is there a fix? I read that upgrading to Yosemite has improved how PSE9 works but after my previous experience with upgrading to Mavericks I am not in a rush to upgrade.
Thanks
