IPhoto + PSE 8 als externer Editor = nur 4 Fotos auf einmal bearbeiten

Hallo zusammen,
wie schon beschrieben nutze ich PSE 8 als externen Editor zum bearbeiten meiner Fotos, die alle in IPhoto '08 organisiert sind.
In IPhoto ist also PSE 8 als externes Bearbeitungsprogramm eingestellt und öffnet sich automatisch beim klick auf den Bearbeitungsbutton. Dies funktioniert auch wunderbar bei einzelnen Bildern.
Wenn ich aber mehrere Bilder in IPhoto makiere und auf bearbeiten klicke, dann öffnen sich nur die ersten 4 Fotos in Photoshop.
Brauche aber unbedingt alle makierten Fotos in Photoshop um z.B Stapelverarbeitungen schnell zu erledigen.
Vielen Danke für eure Hilfe!

Hab meine Frage mal im Englischen Forum gepostet und eine hilfreiche Antwort bekommen:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2642063#2642063
Dies ist eine Limitierung von iPhoto, dass heißt egal welches externe Bearbeitungsprogramm man verwendet, es werden immer nur vier makierte Bilder von iPhoto in dem externen Editor geöffnet.
Wer also z.b. einen Filtereffekt bei mehreren Bildern in einem Arbeitschritt anwenden möchte muss die Fotos erst in vierer Gruppen von iPhoto im externen Editor öffnen um dann alle auf einmal zu Bearbeiten.
Ziemlich dumme Sache die Beschränkung, aber gibt glaub ich keinen Weg darum herumzukommen

  • IPhoto + PSE 8 external Editor = opens only 4 images at a time

    I'm using IPhoto to Organize my Images. In the preferences of IPhoto, Photoshop Elements 8 is set as the external editor.
    When I select e.g. 10 Images in Iphoto and pushing the edit button, Photoshop shows me only the first 4 images of my selection.
    Is that normal? What is your experience?
    Thanks for your answers!

    Thanks for your reply Barbara,
    then I have to add my images in four-groups, if I want to edit it with the same filter effect in Photoshop.

  • Iphoto 11 + PSE 9 externer editor

    Hi,
    Because the organizer of PSE 9 is very slow, I use iphoto 11 on Mac OSx to organize my fotos. If I edit a foto with iphoto, I get one modifieded picture in iphoto. If I work with PSE 9 as an external editor, iphoto does a duplication of my foto and I get 2 fotos (original + modifieded) in iphoto. Is it possible to get one modifieded foto with PSE 9 in the organizer of iphoto with the option to get back to the original?

    No, this is a quirk of the current iphoto with any external editor. Most people think it's a bug, but apple evidently disagrees.

  • Editing iPhoto photos in external editor, i.e., PSE

    iMac running Mavericks OS.
    From iPhoto, when I click a photo to edit in external editor (PSE), I am taken to the pse editor, but my photo is not.
    Why is the photo not appearing?

    Because you chose the logical file instead of the correct one as your external editor. The PSE icon at the top level of the PSE folder in Applications is just an alias for the welcome screen. The actual editor is buried way down in support files:

  • MacOSX Photos App (versus iPhoto): edit in external editor?

    Just a quickie to see if my deduction is correct. In the new Photos app on OSX I can find no manner via which to "Edit in external editor" as is (was?) possible in iPhoto. I deduce the manner for this now, is to export a photo, edit it (and rename if so desired), then re-import it. Correct? (No more of the handy, immediate-seeming path.)

    I just realized that Photos doesn’t have a Feedback feature and at the moment there’s no Photos support there. Hold that thought and look back at the Apple Feedback site I linked to. With luck in a short while we can feedback our wishlist on Photos. I know this one is high on my list.

  • Aperture 2 no longer supports iPhoto "edit in external editor"

    I've ordered Aperture 2.0, but I'm still using the demo.
    iPhoto 2008 Help says I can use Aperture as an external editor.
    I just tried. Aperture opens, but the image does not appear.
    I suspect this functionality broke in either Aperture or iPhoto.
    Anyone else test this? I'll probably submit a bug report for iPhoto on this.

    Terence Devlin wrote:
    Aperture has never worked as an external editor for iPhoto, and I could not see anywhere in the iPhoto help where it says it does.
    Here's the text from the Help file (emphasis mine):
    "Choosing what happens when you click the Edit button
    When you want to edit a photo, you can have the photo open in one of four ways: in the same window, in a separate window, in full-screen view, or in another application..
    Under Edit Photo, select one of the following options:
    In main window: Opens the photo in edit view in the main viewing area.
    In separate window: Opens the photo in edit view in a separate window.
    Using full screen: Opens the photo in full-screen edit view.
    In application: Opens the photo in another application you choose, such as Aperture or Photoshop."
    Anyway, thanks for confirming that it really doesn't work now. Probably it never did, there was just an error in the documentation.

  • 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.

  • How do I make Photoshop the external editor

    I upgraded to snow leopard and now the "Edit in External Editor" option is grayed out in iPhoto. How do I choose Photoshop as my external editor?
    I tried opening the pictures in Photoshop, editing them and then saving them - but the changes don't show up in the iPhoto file. How can I save the changes to the iPhoto file?

    In the iPhoto preferences you set PS as the external editor - when you finish editing you save (not save as) - and the photos is returned to iphoto and the iPhoto database correctly updated to keep the original and the modified version
    iPhoto has the capability to directly interface with any external editor - simply go to the iPhoto preferences (iPhoto menu ==> preferences ==> General and set the Edit photo option to in external editor - select the desired external editor and you are set - now when you edit photos they are sent to the selected external editor and when you are finished editing you save (not save as) and the edited photo is returned to iPhoto, the original is maintained in iPhoto and the iPhoto database is correctly updated.
    If you want the option of editing in either iPhoto or the external editor after selecting your external editor simply set the edit in back to main window - now when you right click (control Click) on a photo you will get a menu which allows you to select either.

  • Using external editor PSE to crop photos for iPhoto

    For years I have used PSE (Photoshop Elements) as the external editor in iPhoto (iPhoto 8 - 7.1.5).  Recently I upgraded to a new machine which has iPhoto 11 (9.4.2) installed.  I decided (amongst other things) to crop a photo in PSE using the "No Restriction" option.  When this photo was re-opened in iPhoto, iPhoto rendered it as a "stretched" photo - like it was trying to force it to the original photo ratio.  Obviously all the dimensions looked weird in this "stretched" photo! As an experiment I reverted the cropped photo to "Original" and then performed the exact same crop within iPhoto itself.  No problem. The photo was rendered exactly as you'd expect.  So why does the new iPhoto not seem to handle externally cropped photos properly?  Is there a solution? (other than forking out another 50 quid for the latest version of PSE - which may or may not have the same issue!)
    Yes I'm using an old version pf PSE (6 in fact) but everything else (at least everything else that I've tried!) seems to work OK.
    Thoughts anyone?

    I may be preaching to the choir here but there may be some PSE tips here that might help, particularly regarding PSE's preferences:
    Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts 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..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements  the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
    I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
    Note:  to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

  • When using Photoshop Elements 9 as external editor my iPhoto version does not update

    I am using Photoshop Elements 9 as an external editor in iPhoto V9.4.2
    My photo's are Raw and they open in Elements fine for me to edit. When I go to save or exit I have problems. I get options to choose from - I am assuming that saving them as JPEG now they are edited is the best choice. However it shows me a file location where it will be saved and this is not the iPhoto libary. Even so, I save them where PSE wants to and when I go back to them in iPhoto they are not shown as edited (either in preview thumbnail or full version and regardless of which folder I look at them from). I shut iPhoto down and re-open and still they are not changed. I have watched the Adobe lesson on this and it is identical right up to the point of 'saving'. I have read other question on this and followed some advice but not getting the desired result of showing up in iPhoto still.
    Thank you.

  • IPhoto 11 and PS Elements 10 - external editor issue
