is iphoto compatible with photoshop

Yes:
Using Photoshop CS3 or Photoshop Elements 9 as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's Advanced Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
Click to view full size
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
Click to view full size
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 edited and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 9 the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:

s  I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatibility be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:

NOTE: If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS/PSE 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 "Edit Photos:  in iPhoto".  That will let you either edit in iPhoto using the Edit button or Control-clicking on the thumbnail and selecting "Edit in iPhoto" or in PS/PSE by Control-clicking on the thumbnail and selecting "Edit in External Editor" in the Contextual menu.
Click to view full size
This way you get the best of both worlds.
NOTE: Currently there is a bug in iPhoto 11 when using PS or PSE to edit a .png, .tiff or .psd file in iPhoto.  iPhoto makes a duplicate copy of the file, saves it as a .jpg file and tried to open it for editing.  Since the .jpg is the wrong extension for those three file types an error message is generated. 
However, editing .jpg files with PS in iPhoto works.

  • Iphoto Editing with Photoshop Elements 9

    I am going into Iphoto, clicking the Edit button and it brings up Photoshop Elements 9.  I make changes, they
    look OK so I save it.  When I get back to IPhoto, it looks like the change has been made.  However when I go
    back later in the day and click on the updated photo and there is a triangle with an exclamation point in the middle.
    This means it can't find the original.  They're all located in Iphoto, what is happening?  Why does it look like the changes
    are make and then I can't find them?

    I do use a Mac, so I don¹t think versions is an issue. I would rather
    pictures edited in PSE, which began life in iPhoto, should always be saved
    back to iPhoto, as they were in Elements 8. That is not happening. Neither
    do I know where to find pictures that PSE has saved.

    >> The save dialog sees an original and asks for permission to change it.
    If you see the save as dialog you don't have your saving files preference set
    correctly. To make versions, you must set it to Save over Original.
    However, note that there is a big ol' bug in the mac version that if you even
    open that particular preference window (even if you don't change anything
    there) PSE will no longer add file extensions when you save. When using PSE as
    external editor it doesn't matter so much, but if you ever save to the desktop
    you will need to add the file extension manually to the saved file.

  • Is Extension Builder 2.1 using Flash compatible with Photoshop CC also in the future? (There are speculations, that it will be switched off, what will destroy my investment in that code)

    I have codes a lot of stuff using Extension Builder 2.1 using Flash technology to be compatible with Photoshop CS6 and Photoshop CC.
    There are speculations, that the support for this would be removed in Photoshop CC. This would destroy my investment in this code and my customers would not be able to use my products anymore, when they are using Photoshop CC.
    Is there any workaround planed for customers using Photoshop CC to be able to run extension build with Extension Builder 2.1 and Flashbuilder 2.6 also in the future?

    Can you supply a link?

  • IPhone 2.0 software now compatible with Photoshop Elements 6?

    While the current software is compatible with earlier versions of Photoshop Elements, it is not compatible with Elements 6 since Abobe changed their database (nor longer using Access). I notice that the specs on iPhone 3G say compatible with Photoshop Elements.
    Can anyone confirm that means Elements 6?

    However, to be fair, while there may be savings to be had, your company would have to replace existing phones with iPhones and tie everyone into one carrier (which accross a multi-office environment may not be practical, due to coverage issues). The iPhone does not offer the level of encryption available to a Blackberry/RIM handset, or the ability to enforce security policies on handsets, which may be a concern to your IT and Security people. It also misses some useful features (such as searching email for words/phrases. This is a feature I use regularly on my Blackberry, and I'm disappointed to not find it on my iPhone. ). And there is the whole, One Vendor issue that may worry some (you can connect non-RIM, e.g. Nokia, etc, phones to your BES providing the phone supports the required blackberry software).
    I've got to say, as much as I love my iPhone (and I'm personally migrating from my blackberry to it) I don't think I'd recommend it as an enterprise phone.... yet... It's still got a way to go. As a personal+business phone, I'm giving it a shot (as the personal side is quite good). My current employer is a small company, with no BES, so I use my carrier's BIS, and get by with it. As such, the calendar+contacts sync available through mobileMe is a plus . If I was planning IT direction for a larger organisation though, I'd be considering the iPhone (if for no other reason than an excuse to play with one ), but I wouldn't be preparing a migration just yet!

  • How do I get a free version of iPhoto compatible with Mac OS 10.8.5?

    After upgrading to Mac OS 10.8.5, my previous version of iPhoto would not work. I have since trashed the non working version of iPhoto. The available free download versions of iPhoto will not work with Mac OS 10.8.5. How can I get a free download version of iPhoto compatible with 10.8.5 without purchasing a new copy??

    There is no free upgrade for Mountain Lion. The free upgrade is only for Mavericks.
    The iWork apps are free with a new iOS device since 1 SEP 2013. They are free with a new Mac since 1 OCT 2013. They are also free with the upgrade to OS X Mavericks 10.9 if you had the previous version installed when you upgraded.

  • Existing Actions and Plugins Compatible with Photoshop CS5?

    I have actions and plug-in products, and while I've done everything I can to make them future-proof, I'm wondering if any Photoshop CS5 beta testers can speak to whether existing actions and plugins are generally compatible with Photoshop CS5?
    Specifically:
    Are existing 32 bit Windows (PC) plugins proving to be compatible with Photoshop CS5?
    Are existing 64 bit Windows (PC) plugins proving to be compatible with Photoshop CS5?
    Are existing actions (both platforms) proving to be compatible with Photoshop CS5?
    I'm anxiously awaiting the go-ahead to download my copy to verify everything, but I'm just trying to get a feel for whether I'll have work to do.  I'm hoping for the level of compatibility seen in CS3 and CS4 - all my software worked perfectly with no changes.
    Thanks.

    I appreciate you all taking the time to answer, but none of you has actually said what DOES happen with your existing actions / plugins and CS5 beta.
    I know that experience with one set of actions and plugins doesn't guarantee operation with another, but if, for example, someone actually stated, "all my old plugins failed to work with CS5" or "they all seemed to work okay" then I'd have a better idea of what to expect.
    Please keep in mind I've been developing commercial actions since PS6 and plugins since CS2, and all my software works on all 32 bit versions and 64 bit CS4 on Vista x64 and Windows 7 x64, so I'm intimately familiar with what might happen and what should happen.  Plus I've programmed them to be quite resilient, and I don't expect any of the CS5 feature changes to break them.  What I don't know is whether Adobe has fundamentally altered the plugin interface this time around, or has deprecated any old filters, causing a plugin or action that used to work to fail now.  The word "rewrite" has been used to describe CS5, and that has me wondering.
    In short, I'm really looking for actual experience with the CS5 beta here.
    Wish I could get the CS5 SDK already.  I don't understdand why Adobe doesn't release that in advance.
    Thanks.

  • How to make iPhoto compatible with OS X Yosemite

    How can I make iPhoto compatible with OS X Yosemite? I can't seem to find an update.

    If you have an older version of iPhoto, you'll need to download the latest version from the App Store - you won't see updates in the Updates tab. You can search for and download it - it's free.

  • I want to download iPhoto compatible with  Snow Leopard 10.6.8

    I want to download iPhoto compatible with Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Which is the suitable version?

    Thanks. No I don't own a version of iPhoto11, although I was using iPhoto on my iMac Duo2 (late 2006) - operating system Lion or Mountain Lion I seem to remember - until the hard drive packed up. A few days ago I bought  a Snow Leopard installation DVD from Apple Shop online and yesterday successfully put it on a My Passport for Mac external drive (£49 from Maplin), a much cheaper option than replacing the internal hard drive. No-one from Apple Support had suggested this!!!
    Everything is working fine but I am missing my iPhoto.  iTunes downloaded free online works well.  I have a packed-full Iomega portable hard drive which I had backed up using Time Machine for the past several years.
    Do you think I could get a compatible iPhoto from this

  • Using iPhoto 08 with Photoshop elements

    I am a recent Mac convert and I'm loving it.
    However, I need some help understanding how best to use Photoshop Elements in conjunction with iPhoto 08. I was thinking I could use iPhoto to keep track of photos and do basic edits and link to other iLife apps etc, and use Photoshop to do more indepth editing.
    I would like to know the most efficient way to open photos from inside iPhoto, into Photoshop. And how to get them back into iPhoto.
    I realise I can drag a photo and create a copy on to the desk top and then open it with Photoshop, do some editing, save it to a/any folder, then import it back into iPhoto but…
    1) is there a better way to do this?
    2) I'm concerned with filling up my hard drive with multiple copies!
    I'd be greatful for any help, Thanks

    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.
