Iphoto to photoshop cs6? Picture is distorted

I am trying to edit a photo in photoshop cs6 from iphoto. When I bring the photo into photoshop the picture is distorted and looks like a collage of parts of my picture. I also see that gray and checked background. I don't know what's happening

I'm having the same issue and your tech support told me that there is an issue with the update(s) and wireless connections. I switched to wired and the same issue exist. On the page from the link you posted, there is no update for Photoshop CC CS6 BUT the Adobe Application Manager AND "updates" within PS says that there is. I just signed up for CC 1 app but if you cannot support the end-user(s) any better than this I will cancel my membership.

Thanks Terence. What a relief. I still don't understand what the book I read was talking about then. Here's a quote from the section I was referring to in "iPhoto 08: The Missing Manual" book, p 91 (ISBN: 0596-516185):
"Note, however, that the instant you edit a TIFF-format photo (Chapter 7), iPhoto converts it into JPEG.
That's fine if you plan to order prints or a photo book (Chapter 11) from iPhoto, since JPEG files are required for those purposes. But if you took that once-in-a-lifetime, priceless shot as a TIFF file, don't do any editing in iPhoto-don't even rotate it- if you hope to maintain its perfect, pristine quality."
After my test results, I thought maybe this was something that had changed from iPhoto 08 to iPhoto 09, so I went to the bookstore yesterday and checked the same book for iPhoto 09, and there it was, the same quote! (on a different page, of course).
Anyway, thanks once again for your confirmation that my test was indeed correct. Linda

Why is Photoshop CS6 not an option for editing iPhoto image?

I've read everywhere that to edit iPhoto pictures in Photoshop CS6, I need to select it as the application to used to edit the image. However, I don't have that as an option, only Preview. And yes, I do have Photoshop installed, I use it every day. Any ideas on how to get it to where Photoshop is the visual editor? Frustrating. Thanks.

You already have selected preview as your external editor - to change it select it again and then select the new external editor

I have set up iPhoto 11 so that pictures will be edited in Photoshop elements 11. I selected the option to edit in another application. But when I select edit in iPhoto, elements opens but the photo does not open in elements. What is the problem?

It relates to Elements 10, but it's the same for 11.

Images appear fine in Photoshop cs6 and cc, but print too dark, and also show too dark in Windows picture viewer. How can I correct this? Is this a Photoshop setting issue or what?

Ok, look at your files in Photoshop. What is the profile assigned to them? You can find this out by going to the Status bar at the bottom, clicking on the right-pointing triangle and choosing document Profile from the list.
Then in Windows, go to your Control Panel > Color Management and add sRGB (if it isn't there) and select it as your default profile.
I hope that will work.

How can I access images from IPhoto on my Mac to Photoshop CS6

How can I access images from IPhoto library on my Mac to Photoshop CS6? I enable jpg with format "Photoshop" and this is what comes up - "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file"

Photoshop is not a format. It's an application.
What you are looking at are not true JPEGs, just iPhoto's "tease" representations of the hidden images it swallowed, as explained above.

Photoshop CS6 content (pictures, etc) will not display (or only partually) on the stage.

I just purchased and loaded Photoshop CS6. Pictures (actually this is for all content in any layers) will not display at all or only partually display (see picture below). I uninstalled and reinstalled the program but there is no change. The other Adobe products from the Master Suite Collection run fine (Flash, Encoder, etc). I am thinking that my instalation disc may be corrupted. Can you give me any advice?

Most likely the video card driver. Update it in GPU makers website. Need make and model of video card.

How to Reset Photoshop CS6's Preferences File | The Complete Picture with Julieanne Kost | Adobe TV

In this episode of The Complete Picture, Julieanne demonstrates two methods for one of the most common trouble shooting techniques: resetting the Photoshop Preferences.

Been looking for one of your tutorials referencing the kind of problem I seem to be having, but haven't located it. It concerns Photoshop CS6 and saving files to jpeg when an image has been created using levels and layers. The problem is this:
Recently I got Photoshop CS6 and started using Layers. I put stars into a night sky. Followed basic proceedures starting with noise filters and reducing the number of stars through levels and screen settings etc, I created an image that started with thousands of stars to around a hundred or so. I added some light to the stars and some color, then saved it as a photoshop image. All fine. When I tried to save the image as a jpeg, some of the layers went missing and the final saved image contained all the thousands of stars I started with. Is this a bug in the program and if so is there a fix for it. If there is another way to get around this problem and allow me to save the image as a jpeg without losing layers, that would be fine as well. I've tried grouping layers and images together and other collective methods, but the end results are still the same. Layers go missing and the sky is filled with all the stars (noise filter settings), not the finished product.
Thanks in advance

Wanting to use Photoshop CS6 to open images directly from iPhoto 11.
Using OSX10.8.2 and iPhoto 11. Just installed Photoshop CS6 and want to open
images directly from iPhoto. Before I installed PS I was not able to edit photos
in iPhoto 11. Nothing happens when I click on ‘edit‘ it is blank.
And now it will not work using Photoshop CS6 either.
From Help Center I have gone to iPhoto/Preferences/ Advanced and chosen Photoshop CS6 to Edit Photos but then cannot find an 'Open' to click? Perhaps this is the problem?
When I select a photo in iPhoto and click the Edit button - nothing happens.
Please advise. Glenys

This may be of help to you:
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.

Iphoto and MobileMe - duplicate pictures, distorted...

I posted this originally under MobileMe and have received no answers at all and it's more an iPhoto 11 issue I think.....
I'm having trouble with iPhoto and my MobileMe gallery. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
I upload photos to the MobileMe gallery from iPhoto 11. I just click on that share button in left corner. That goes fine.
But when I to go my mobileme gallery there are duplicates and some of the duplicates are distorted (and when you open them they are sideways). It has something to do with the feature that automatically uploads to my MobileMe. Even when I'm not clicking on the "share" button when I open iPhoto I can see on the left side where is says "library" then "Albums" below that is "web" and it gets that little sort of sync symbol each time I open iPhoto.
Once I close iPhoto, I go to MobileMe gallery and delete the duplicates and distorted photos and all is fine..... until I open iPhoto again then that sync symbol happens and it uploads the photos in that folder under "Web" (which is called Susan) and then I have the doubles and some distorted photos. Oddly when I look in the folder in iPhoto called "susan" under "web" in iphoto there are no duplicates or distorted photos. And it doesn't make duplicates of all of the photos in that "susan" folder under "web" in iphoto, just a few of them.
Take a look at the gallery: http://gallery.me.com/pixiegirl#100025 The problem is in the "pixie, family, friends" album.
In the top row, ""Cay and Ms Pix" is a duplicate and distorted. And the "Chris" pix is a duplicate. How do I make it so it stops update with the distorted pix every time I open iPhoto. And why since in iPhoto none of the pix are distorted or sideways are they distorted in MobileMe? If I delete the folder in iPhoto under "web" will it also delete the photos in MobileMe.
I'd just like to understand what the heck is going on here.
Very confused. Thanks for any ideas.
Susan

The rotated pictures usually occur with portrait photos that come from cameras with the auto rotate feature. I've not see landscape photos do that.
Export those two from the top row to the desktop as full size, max quality jpegs and open them in in Safari. Safari does not read the tag which tells applications how to display the photo. If the photos are OK in Safari then you can import them into iPhoto and use them to replace the original two.
As for the duplicates, I don't know. Here are some fixes you can try:
Backup the library and try the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
Fix #2
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select options #1, #2 and #6.
Click to view full size
Then launch iPhoto and republish the gallery.
I noticed that may of the photos are of low resolution when enlarged. Are you aware of that?

What do you use instead of picture package in photoshop cs6

What can you use instead of picture package in photoshop cs6. You cannot import it anymore to make pictures. I do not want to print one at a time.

I think the Bridge Output Module comes as standard with CS6, but I might be wrong. Even if you have CC, you can download the Output Module.

Photoshop CS6 - blurred/jagged picture at irregular zoom levels

I'm using Photoshop CS6 on a desktop running Windows 7 with AMD Radeon HD 6750 and I noticed that when I zoom at 66.7% or 33%, the pictures edges look "jagged"/blurry, etc. and the image only has a smooth rendering at 100%, 50%, 25%, etc.
I wouldn't ask about this except, I have the same exact version of Photoshop on my laptop, running Windows 7 with Intel's HD 4000 built-in graphics, and this computer displays smooth rendering of images at any zoom level, no matter what. So why the difference? The settings in the Preferences > Performance section is identical on both computers.

Yeah, sorry. Computer won't let me update the driver. First I installed the wrong one and crashed the computer, then I reinstalled the old one, downloaded the correct one, it installed, no crash, the computer restarted and it told me I had no driver, so I had to reinstall the old one. No hope of updating apparently. I hope that wasn't the solution to the Photoshop problem >.<
I also keep getting conflicting messages from my computer. Photoshop said I had the 6750, but Windows said I had the 5750. When the second install failed (of the 5750), Windows now tells me I have the 6750. I don't get it. But I guess this a question I should ask AMD.

Why can't I edit LANDSCAPE pictures in iPhoto OR Photoshop?

Help!! Having just returned to the wonderful world of the Mac after years away on a PC, I'm struggling to edit my photos and successfully comprehend the links between the original jpeg files I'm downloading and the thumbnails onscreen.
I'm reasonably technical, a Photoshop user and don't understand why it is that I can't DOUBLE CLICK on a LANDSCAPE picture and edit it...
For some reason, I can't even edit my landscape photos in iPhoto (which I'm resorting to as in a hurry with a particular project)....
Is there some reason why LANDSCAPE pictures aren't appearing in iPhoto's EDIT window? It only display's portrait pictures - all the landscape pics are replaced with a grey window and an exclaimation mark '!'
The pictures are still there, just WON'T OPEN in edit mode in either iPhoto or Photoshop when I double click them (and yes, I have set the Preferences to default edit in Photoshop).
Can anyone help please?

Problems keep color same in picture in Photoshop CS6?

Whenever I zoom in, in Photoshop CS6 the color changes between the orignal photo color, to a more contrasted color, and then back. It happens when I also use the lasso tool, patch tool, zoom, etc. I would just like help making this go away. Any information would be helpful. I've included a video, with a random image. P.S The effect happens with any picture in RBG, but goes away when I switch to CMYK. It also happnes If I type in text.

This means either your card or driver are not up to the task. Find the make and model of the card and go to manufactors website and download the latest driver version. Win8 is still new so all the fixes are not in yet with drivers. Good luck.
Some with Win8 are experiencing screen flickering which MS and GPU manufactors are aware of. Seems to be more prevalent in ATI cards.
