JavaScript CS4 vs CS6

I have an old awesome HDR blending script that was written for Photoshop CS3-CS4 but will not run on CS6. Not being a programmer, I still would like to try and upgrade the script, but don't know where to start. Are there major differences in the JavaScript scripting between the two versions?

Yeah, it actually crashes it. First I get a window where I select the files to be processed, that works fine, and then when I hit Go and the script starts the heavy lifting, Photoshop just plain and simple crashes.
I did try to run the script line by line before, but not being familiar with the toolkit, I was very methodical in my approach and gave up when I thought I had found two different places where sopmething went wrong (by removing the first glitchy line ;-). I'll give it another try.
If you are curious about the script, I'm happy to send it over. I purchased it years ago from a guy named Tim Farrar, and it worked great. But he has since then stopped development and vanished...

  • I upgraded from Dreamweaver CS4 to CS6. but now "an TFP error occured - cannot make connection to host". I spent hours with the host technician and we cant find the error. I reinstalled DW4 and it connects to host perfectly. Anyone else seen this problem?

    I upgraded from Dreamweaver CS4 to CS6. but now when I want to upload I get "an TFP error occured - cannot make connection to host". I spent hours with the host technician and we cant find the error. I reinstalled DW4 and it connects to host perfectly. Anyone else seen this problem?
    Mac OS 10.8.5
    None of these issues are causing the error in DW CS6. We have double checked all of them and we have everything exactly right. Also I have exactly the same SiteSetup in DW CS4 and that works perfectly well. Could there must be factor in 6 that didn't exist in 4? Something that isnt in the SiteSetup but in some hidden dialog box ?
    I can also upload to my host using Fetch, a third party FTP. And as I said DW CS4 works fine. So the problem is not with my host, its with DW CS6 in particular.

    Thank you Jon, that fixed it perfectly. You have saved me from going crazy. The only difference I see now is in "Server Name" it changed what I had entered (my ftp address) to "Remote Server"; which seems odd -- but it works!   Although I know there maybe also some other dialog box I have never seen
    Of course I saw that menu item "Import"  and but I thought thats obviously not for me: "Why would I want to import an entire website?". I did not however see "Export the selected site" for thats only a tiny icon in the footer. However I would have thought the same:  "Why would I want to export my entire website?".
    An observation: I've seen this problem in a lot of Adobe software, the menu-names of items are  obscure, non descriptive. What would be better would be for the menu names or popups to say "Export Site Setup settings" and "Import Site Setup settings"

    I just upgraded from PS cs4 to cs6. All of my files open up viewing at .0625% - which is very irritating. How can I change this?

    Are you on a Mac or PC?  If the former, do you have the Application Frame visible?
    Could you post a screenshot of how Photoshop CS6 looks when you first open an image and have it show at the tiny size?
    Chances are you've made the main Photoshop window small, which is causing it to try to fit a newly opened image in too small a space.
    I'm going to make a wild guess that you're on a Mac, and have dragged the bottom edge of the Photoshop window up instead of turning off the Application Frame, so as to be able to see your desktop.

  • Im paying for cc but it will only let me down load cs4 or cs6 versions of the programs. help?

    I recently had trouble when opening Creative cloud to update Photoshop, illustrator..etc. Every time i went to open it it gave me an error message so i uninstalled cc. I  went threw the adobe chat support to reinstall cc, the guy sent me a link to download it. I just now went to open it and it will only let me install cs4 or cs6 on the programs i need it only shows about 2 of the programs being cc. Help me please. i have an assignment due tomorrow that i need to use Indesign for.

    What system? Did you actually run the cleaner tool? Are you sure you are not looking at the filtered section at the bottom of the CC app to access previous versions?

  • Is it still possible to upgrade from CS4 to CS6 after the upgrade offer ended in 2012?

    Is it still possible to upgrade from CS4 to CS6 after the upgrade offer ended in 2012?  I have not found the option to do so.

    My family owns and operates a non-franchise entertainment facility (miniature golf, laser tag, arcade, pizza, parties...).  I have a design background, so among the many things I do here I'm also able to create marketing materials and an online presence in-house which would be too expensive for us to outsource.  Over a five year period, that's given us a software cost of right at $1 per day since our CS3 license ran around $1800.  Our customers are the public, and the package we try to push for walk-in traffic costs $50 for four people.  In exchange, they get unlimited mini golf, a game of laser tag, and a large pizza.  Not a bad deal.  If we were to earn $1800 from that group of four every five years, assuming they spent $50 each visit, that'd bring them here close to two times every three months.  For our type of business in a city of 118,000 tight-fisted Germans, that's about right.
    What, are you trying make me feel GUILTY about being upset that Adobe's new strategy negatively affects my livelihood?
    As far as Adobe's policy change announcement goes, I have no idea how it was announced.  I DO know I was not sent an email notification, though they have my email address and record that I'm a CS3 owner.  Presumably it was announced somewhere on Adobe's website, and further disseminated through various digital and print trade publications.  I respect Adobe's right to not reverse its decision.  If our business decided to put a sign on the front doors (since we don't have contact info for all of our past customers) saying we'd closed that night at 5 PM instead of 11 PM as usual, we aren't obligated to let in latecomers.  But I'd also recognize their right to be mad at us for wasting their travel time.  What I WOULDN'T do is tell them it's THEIR fault for not being proactive and calling ahead to confirm the expectation that our hours are still the same as they've been for the last decade.  NOR would I be surprised if we didn't get their $50 that month.  These Germans tend to hold grudges.

  • CS4 and CS6 on the same pc?

    I cannot get cs4 and cs6 to work together on the same PC.  Can they work together?

    I actually have CS2, CS4 and CS6 all installed on the same computer. CS6 has never worked for more than 2 or 3 minutes. I can open the program, do a few things, then I get an error stating that the program has stopped working. Win 7 tries to find a  “fix” for the problem, but nothing is found. When you close that dialogue box, the entire program closes.  CS4 has been working up until a week ago (no changes were made to computer other than standard updates-no new software installed.) Now CS4 won’t even load, immediately comes up with This Program Has Stopped Working, then Win7 tries to resolve the problem. Nothing…close dialogue box and entire program closes.
    I am trying to figure out what the conflict is, why CS4 just started having problems, and how to resolve all of them.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Photoshop CS4 to CS6 upgrade

    I ordered the Photoshop CS4 to CS6 package but the box that came has a sticker on it saying that I have to input a CS5 serial number. Do I have the wrong box or can I use this to upgrade my PS CS4?

    Under Adobe's new "one version back" upgrade policy, only CS5 users can upgrade to CS6. Hence the sticker, I'm guessing.
    However, when CS6 shipped, Adobe granted special dispensation to CS3 and CS4 users who can upgrade to CS6 - but only until 31 Dec 2012.
    http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/faq/upgrade-policy.html
    Without seeing the box and the sticker, it's hard to be definitve but my guess is that you have the correct box and you can upgrade to CS6 using that box.

  • I can't figure out how to upgrade from Photoshop CS4 to CS6.

    you can upgrade from cs5 to cs6, but not from cs4 to cs6. 
    you can join cc to access ps cs6 and ps cc:  http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/buying-guide.html

  • Fireworks CS4 to CS6 - is there a setting that needs to be adjusted so that web pages look right in

    Fireworks CS4 to CS6 - is there a setting that needs to be adjusted so that web pages look right in Internet Explorer?  I was in the middle of creating pages with Fireworks CS4 and exporting them to Dreamweaver CS4 and publishing them to the website. Those pages looked fine. Then I upgraded to CS6 and the pages  look fine in  Fireworks, Dreamweaver and when I preview them "live" in Chrome but not Internet Explorer. Anyone know why?  Also, with upgrading the software I upgraded to a new computer.  Any and all suggestions are welcomed.  Thanks!

    Most likely caused by a missing document type declaration (DTD).  Truth is, the HTML code generated by graphics apps is not web worthy.  It's really only intended for quick mock-ups to show a client before you rebuild everything with CSS & HTML code in Dreamweaver.

  • JavaScript Tools Guide CS6 PDF

    I've found that the JavaScript Tools Guide CS6 PDF is not available for download from the Adobe website. It is only available as part of the ExtendScript Toolkit CS6 (ESTK 3.8).
    ESTK 3.8 is not available for download from the Adobe website either, but is included in all Adobe CS6 products.
    If you have an Adobe CS6 product installed on Windows, the JavaScript Tools Guide CS6 PDF can be found here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Utilities - CS6\ExtendScript Toolkit CS6\SDK\JavaScript Tools Guide CS6.pdf

    Thanks Todd, so posting the actual PDF documents themselves would not be allowed then? I ask only because the JavaScript Tools Guide CC.pdf does not have a link online. Search results return only for the JavaScript Tools Guide CS5.pdf

  • Replace an image by another with a javascript in Indesign CS6

    I am really desperate.  I have no idea where to start since I have no knowledge of javascript.  Can anyone please help?
    I need a javascript that replaces 5 logo's in an active, multi-page, CS6 document.
    In certain cases the logo's need to be replaced.
    For example:
    logo1.pdf  has to become logoA.pdf
    logo2.pdf has to become logoB.pdf
    logo3.pdf has to become logoC.pdf
    logo4.pdf has to become logoD.pdf
    logo5.pdf has to become logoE.pdf
    All the logo's are in the same folder.  The original and the new logo's have the same dimensions /etc.
    So it would be nice to select the logo's that need to be repaced and then run the javascript.
