Is there a replacement for Photosmart Premier photo editor for Windows 8 ?

I just upgraded to Windows 8 with a new HP computer but I have lost a fabulous photo editor Photosmart Premier. The drivers on my OEM cd would not install so I have downloaded all the drivers for my C4680 colour printer for Windows 8 but Photosmart was not included. Is it called something else now and I have just missed it? Thanx for your consideration. SB

Hi SnowBird43x80. It does appear the HP Photosmart Premier photo editor is not available for Windows 8.
The replacement software is called HP Photo Creations and is available here:

  • Replacement for Photosmart Premier to print on CDs

    I recently moved my Photosmart 5160 to my main Windows 7 computer, downloaded the drivers and was able to print photos.  But I used this printer to print on ink jet-printable compact discs and the software that HP offers does not print on CDs as far as I can see.  What can I use in the style of Premier?

  • Photo program that is compatible HP Photosmart Premier 6.5 for Windows 8.

    I need a Photo program that is compatible with HP Photosmart Premier 6.5 for Windows 8. Can anyone help me? as the program in Windows 8 does not recognize the flash drive to upload.

    Hi,
    This is a third party software, I think the contract ceased few years back. The latest version is v7.0 dated 2006-06-09. Now HP uses a product called HP Photo Creations, you can download from the following link:
       http://www.hp.com/hho/hp_create/themes_partners_hp_photo_creation.html
    Regards.
    ps. This is also a third party product (from Rocketlife).

  • Best photo editor for mac?

    I am looking for a comprehensive photo editor app.
    I have downloaded FX Photo Studio Pro, but I  am very unsatisfied: the actual editing tools are very limited.
    I don't care about effects or frames: I need tools to reduce image size, select parts of an image, copy, paste, etc.
    any suggestion?

    yes, oddly enough, I suggest FOTOR, and its FREE , ..go figure, very highly rated.
    The best "almost as good as photoshop but not as complicated and easy to use" is PERFECT PHOTO SUITE 7
    Pixelmator is probably the best cheap "does it all great photo APP" and many agree on that.
    Acorn and Graphics converter are close runners up.
    In this order
    1. FOTOR (free and awesome)
    2. Pixelmator
    3. Graphics converter / or  Acorn
    4.  only #4 due to cost, but great stuff,...is PERFECT PHOTO SUITE 7
    The best of course is Photoshop, but its expensive and takes 100 years to learn all its functions.

  • Is Aperture for me? (Photo organisation for a non-professional)

    I'm not a professional photographer, I'm just looking for a way to better organise my personal photos. However I am a graphic designer and know my way around editing photos and I have some of RAW files too.
    So, currently, my iPhoto library is a wasteland- mostly duplicates that I imported at some point for some reason or another.
    The rest of my photos are simply in named folders. I have about 200 gigs of the stuff, going back to 2006 (plus older ones on other drives)
    Currently, I simply use cover flow and quick view to browse photos. It works surprisingly well, but it's no match for a proper solution (geotagging, face recognition, creating books, flagging, rating, etc.)
    So, if you use Aperture, I'd love to ask you:
    • Is Aperture your primary photo organisation tool, or do you also continue to use the finder or other solutions at the same time?
    • How is storing photos on an external drive handled in Aperture? Is it easy, or does it involve a lot of dragging stuff around and messing up your existing events/albums?
    • Once photos are stored on an external.. how do you back them up in case that drive fails?
    • On the Apple "iPhoto to Aperture" page, they say iPhoto and Aperture share their libraries. So what happens to photos Aperture has moved to an external drive, do they disappear from iPhoto?
    • How's the speed? I always found iPhoto to be slow and unresponsive. I do have the 13" MBP from 2010 (2.4 Ghz, Intel Core 2 Duo) but it does everything else smoothly so I fail to see what is so intense about iPhoto to justify the poor performance.
    I plan to upgrade to a new MBP, so maybe this is a moot point.
    • Is importing all my old photos gonna be pretty straightforward? I'd assume Aperture will take the dates on the files, rather than the date I import them.
    • Since I never used iPhoto much, I don't get the difference between an Event and an Album- though I assume that events are for separating photo dumps (say, your visit to italy and your skiing trip) and albums are for combining an arbitrary set of photos (for instance your best travel photos featuring images from italy and the skiing trip among others), so when you delete one from an album, the image is still in the event, but if you delete from an event, it goes to the trash?... is this correct?
    • any other advice you may have
    Thanks!

    I will comment on some of the items and exclude the external drive questions as I use a 'Managed' library on the internal drive.
    • Is Aperture your primary photo organisation tool, or do you also continue to use the finder or other solutions at the same time?
    I use Aperture specifically for organizing, viewing and enhancing images from my camera (with one proviso noted at end of this section). Since I use Photoshop and Illustrator to create composites and other graphic images, I keep that type of work outside of Aperture and use Bridge to view those in the finder disk structure. Basic line of thought here is just like iTunes is for music files, Aperture is for camera image files.
    Although I could hold composite PSD files from Photoshop inside the Aperture library, I don't simply because I don't know if Apple may decide not to support those fully in the future. I used to keep PSD files in the library, but moved away from that practice.
    Note - the proviso mentioned above is that I do have one Project that contains imported composites and rasterized Illustrator files that I wish to sync with iDevices. This is the only place I keep anything other than JPEG or RAW original camera files in the library.
    • How's the speed? I always found iPhoto to be slow and unresponsive. I do have the 13" MBP from 2010 (2.4 Ghz, Intel Core 2 Duo) but it does everything else smoothly so I fail to see what is so intense about iPhoto to justify the poor performance.
    I plan to upgrade to a new MBP, so maybe this is a moot point.
    Aperture's speed depends on what you are doing in the program. Importing many images can take a little time, but no more so than other programs (e.g., Lightroom or even Bridge - which has to build it's cache). Face detection can take some time if you have a lot of faces in the images, but once it completes it is done.
    Making adjustments to images can be quick in most of the adjustment bricks and HUD's, although; the retouch and skin softening brushes can become slower when you are adding a lot of local adjustments. This is no different than in Lightroom or Adobe Camera RAW when using brushes. Photoshop actually edges out these programs if you use layers and masks when brushing as far as processing speed goes, but that takes time to create a layer > fill > brush adjustment. Since Aperture does the masking for you on the fly, the speed is pretty much a wash.
    Note - if iPhoto is slow and unresponsive on your machine, it may be due to something in the library database being the issue. However, it seems that most software creators (Apple, Microsoft, Adobe, etc.) always want to take advantage of the leading edge hardware when possible, which can lead to depleted performance in underpowered machines. With your machine, I would probably look at the library first aid items to improve performance though as iPhoto should be able to run decently.
    • Is importing all my old photos gonna be pretty straightforward? I'd assume Aperture will take the dates on the files, rather than the date I import them.
    Importing is easy and you have a number of options. Aperture will read the metadata of the image files and if the date and time are there, you can use that as the naming scheme if you wish. I would suggest reading the bit about file naming presets here:
    http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/index.html#chapter=4%26sec tion=6%26tasks=true
    I will leave the external drive ideas to others who run a reference library as they will have much better information than I can provide.
    • Since I never used iPhoto much, I don't get the difference between an Event and an Album- though I assume that events are for separating photo dumps (say, your visit to italy and your skiing trip) and albums are for combining an arbitrary set of photos (for instance your best travel photos featuring images from italy and the skiing trip among others), so when you delete one from an album, the image is still in the event, but if you delete from an event, it goes to the trash?... is this correct?
    In either iPhoto or Aperture, you have to import image before the programs know about them and therefore before you can work with them in the program. iPhoto uses 'Events' to hold imports and Aperture uses 'Projects'. They are really the same thing - a container for the imported images.
    In both programs, Albums are manually created collections of 'aliases' to the imported images that reside inside the Events / Projects. If you delete an image alias in an Album, it only removes the link to the image in the Event / Project. If on the other hand you delete the imported image from the Event / Project, then it will remove the image as well as any aliases to that image that you have created in Albums.
    In both programs, if you delete an image from the Event / Project where it resides, it will go to the program's internal Trash first. If you then emtpy that internal Trash via command, it will go to the Finder trash. Note - you can put an image back from the program's internal Trash without re-importing. If you send to the Finder trash, you will need to re-import the image if you want to replace it.
    Both programs also incorporate 'Smart Albums' which are created using filtering criteria and remain dynamic. Meaning any current image that meets the filter criteria will be shown as well as any future image that meets said criteria (either via import, ranking, keyword, adjustment, etc.).
    Note - the library structures in both programs don't really mirror the file structure on disk. While you can try to set it up that way (and many users may well do that) - I just felt it was too time consuming for me. So I just use Aperture like I do iTunes. Camera image in > organize > enhance as needed > enjoy.
    One thing in Aperture that is really nice is a feature called 'Quick Preview Mode'. With the click of a button or a keyboard press, you can tell Aperture not to worry about rendering an adjustable version and just show you the image as it currently is. Really great for cruising the images. Just remember to switch off the Quick Preview Mode when you want to make adjustments.

    WOW! That font is difficult to read. But, see if this support document helps you http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3989. Photos stream is based on date and photos more than 30 days old are removed. Photostream is designed as a temporary storage to allow you to download the photos to the computer.

  • Photo Editor for iMac

    I have several tasks I'd like to do in iPhoto, but maybe another application would be more appropriate. I need to touch up photos to do things like:
    Make the sky "blue-er" in overexposed shots, globally change one color within the photo to another (for effect), remove objects from scenic shots.
    Is there a Mac based product which can do these types of tasks?

    Bill:
    As Terence pointed out there are 3rd party editors that can do the trick. He mentioned Photoshop but Photoshop Elements for Mac, about $90, has around 80% of Photoshop's capabilities at 1/7 the cost. It is capable of the advanced editing that you want to do. Amazon.com often has deals on PSE - around 10$ off the usual price. I got lucky and got my copy when I bought my Canon 8600F scanner. So if you happen to be in the market for a scanner you can kill two birds with one stone.
    Do you Twango?
    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 written 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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Microphone doesn't seem to work on iPhone4 for Built-in Photo App for Video recording

    I have an iPhone4 and I used the built-in Photo app to record a video. When I played it back on the iPhone or on my Computer I heard no sound! I used the built in Voice Recoder and I could record and play back voice memos! Any idea of the fix?

    i had the same problem.
    try this. when you press go live and the chat thing comes up, right click on where your video is supposed to show up and then press settings then click on the tab with the picture of a webcam. then press the drop down box and select usb video.
    it should work.

  • Looking for a goot *.txt editor for windows.

    Hi,
    so does anybody know one? It should handly files of any size. And it would be great, if one could choose which words should be shown in a different color (so that I can highlight keywords). Or maybe one, which already supports java like this site does, when I use the [ code] tag.

    there are probably 10,000 for all I know. But a good cheap one is textPad . It allows you to define syntax definitions and a bunch of other stuff.

  • HP Photosmart Premier 6.0

    Hi,
    I used to use HP Photosmart Premier 6.0 on Windows XP and since I upgraded to Windows 7 I can't find a match.
    I used to use this software to create multiple (different) images on 1 sheet and all images resized like passport size on 1 sheet.
    Can someone suggest a good alternative that still allows me to do this?

    Hi CLD79.
    As Banhien says, HP Photo Creations can place multiple photos on a page. 
    For a gridded layout, pick the Multi-up Prints project, then choose Grid or Wallet.
    For more control, start with a collage print or photo book page project.
    Please let us know if those don't do what you want.
