.jpeg changes in PSE11?

I have used Elements since version 7 to scan CD covers which I embed in files which I create in .mp3 format using Easy CD DA Extractor for many years. These files are then played back using Winamp with a plugin that displays the embedded album art.
Since updating to PSE 11 from 10, the embedded art (which is there, and visible within Windows 7) will no longer display in the Winamp plugin (this plugin has not been changed or updated for several years). I have confirmed that it is the file format that must have changed by saving the exact same artwork (.jpg) on an older system that I have running PSE 8, and re-embedding the image (no other changes to the .mp3 were made). I am saving the file using the exact same options from the save as dialog on both PSE 8 as on PSE 11.
Has the format/header/defaults for saving a .jpeg file in PSE11 changed? And if so is there a setting somewhere that would alter the behavior to be like previous versions?

I used PSE10 with perfect results for the last year. (I had skipped version 9 moving to 10 as soon as it was released from version 8)
Before upgrading to version 11, I revoked my version 10 registration and uninstalled the software.
I am curious as to the 'EXIF' information as I can now see 1 difference:
Looking under 'Details' of the file in Windows 7 under the 'Advanced photo' category, .jpg images which I had created (all done using Canoscan 9000F Scanner) prior to version 11 have no information next to 'EXIF version' or 'Photometric interpretation'. If the same file is then loaded and re-saved in PSE 11, 'EXIF version' has a value of 0221 and 'Photmetric interpretation' has the value 'RGB'.
Under the preferences menu in PSE11 'Saving Files', 'File Compatibility' checking the option to 'Ignore Camera Data (EXIF) profiles' does not change this curious output.
So there is a sign that the meta-data has changed, which is likely the cause of my problem. The question remains is there a user-controllable solution? I collect 1000s of CDs and would hate to have to revert to PSE10 for something that seems so mundane, but this change does affect my music collection.
Any further advice is welcome (and thanks for the thoughtful replies everyone!)

  • JPEG changing color during export to Word

    When I export my file into Word, one of my jpegs changes color dramatically. From a gold hue to bright purple. Does anyone know why this might happen (no other colors in the file are changing) and how to prevent it?J

    Are you sure that it is a .jpeg? This happens when the colorspace of the file is not defined or is alterred by the receiving System/Software. Usually .jpegs are OK but other formats may have different colorspaces that the PC System is not reading or reading incorrectly.
    If it is not a .jpeg it maybe in a format with indexed colors, indexed in a low bit setting that is again being misread by Windows.
    You could try opening and resaving the particular file in Apple's Preview.app to jpeg which should apply some colorspace at least a default one and may correct the problem.

  • If I move a picture from one project to another in aperture why doesn't the jpeg change folders if all my pictures are referenced?

    I started importing all my pictures into Aperture and have been debating whether to use a managed or referenced library.  I'm leaning toward referenced, but before import everything that way, I do a couple of "test drives".
    In Aperture, I moved a photo from one project to another expecting that the jpeg in finder would move from the original folder to the new one, but it didn't.  Anyone know why?  Is there a way to make this happen?  Is it bad that I want this to happen?  Should I just use a managed library.  I like having control of the actual files (thus wanting to go with a referenced library).
    Any thoughts?
    Mark

    In Aperture, I moved a photo from one project to another expecting that the jpeg in finder would move from the original folder to the new one, but it didn't. 
    Mark, Aperture does not store the originals organized by project, but by the date of the Import Session. So moving an image to a different project will not change, were the original file is stored.
    This has a big advantage for backing up the originals. If they never move or change, you do not have to backup the originals other than directly after importing, if your library is referenced. And even incremental backups of a managed library are quicker.
    Is there a way to make this happen?
    You can always use the command "File > Relocate" to move the original files anywhere you want.
    Is it bad that I want this to happen?  Should I just use a managed library.  I like having control of the actual files (thus wanting to go with a referenced library).
    If it is bad, will depend on why you want to have control of your originals. If you just want to know where they are, it is o.k., or if you don't have enough space on the drive with the library and need to split the library across several drives. But it would be bad to move, edit, or access the referenced originals in any way. Let Aperture do the handling,  or you will be risking broken references.
    Aperture has several buil-in ways to show you the original: The "M" key will switch the Browser to the original, "File > Export > Original" will give you an exact copy of the original, or you can relocate the file to another folder.  I simply open the aperture Library in iPhoto, when I want to view my managed originals. iPhoto has a command "File > Reveal in Finder > Original" that will show you also the managed originals in the "Masters" folder inside the Aperture/iPhoto Library package.

  • Save as JPEG changes CMYK colour

    Hi,
    I have a solid colour in Photshop that I set CMYK values for (I work in CMYK image mode). When I save as JPEG, the resulting JPEG file changes one of the CMYK values by 1 percentage point. When I save as TIFF, it works fine (CMKY values match original photshop file). What is going on?
    This is for CS4.
    Thanks.

    I'm confused. If your goal is to print the image, why not open the jpeg in Photoshop, do a save as using the native .PSD Photoshop file format, and just continue to work and save in that file format? Going back to jpeg makes no sense.
    In the first place, Jpeg does not support the CMYK color space, so every time you save it, it will save in the much smaller sRGB space. Also, between this and the fact that it compresses the image even at the highest settings, you are going to get changes in the image, including in the colors.
    Just avoid all this and work in .PSD file format.
    Another point: all of the photographers I know usually work in an RGB color space, Adobe rgb for example. As I understand it, CMYK is used in graphics and publication, often because you want to split the image into four channels to use in commercial four-color offset printing.
    If you're going to be doing inkjet printing, or via a service, I'd suggest staying in an Rgb workspace--you can still decide to use the CMYK menu to select your colors.
    Color management can be tricky, so I'd suggest you do a bit of research.

  • Renaming a jpeg, changing the original file?

    I belived that LR5 was a non-destructive program. I have been told repetadly that all information was stored in the catalog and the original files are safe.
    However when I now renamed my old jpeg-files from within LR5, I found that the original filenames was changed by LR5!
    1) Does the renaming process only save the new filename (EXIF/metadata) in the original file or are the full image saved?
    My concern is since jpeg is destructive format I will loss a generation and I may end up having a result I do not want.
    2) Anyone know a good relable source to some facts about how EXIF information and metadata are actually handled?
    Looking forward to your feed-back.

    biggles-2 wrote:...  LR5 never touches the originals
    This is an incorrect statement
    it is true that Lightroom never touches the image portion of the original jpg file. However, there are many other ways in which Lightroom can modify the original jpg file, just not the image portion.
    To me changing name from for example IMG957 to 201403_K5II_0957, will give me advantages within LR5 and LR5 saves the information in the catalogue and nowhere else.
    If Lightroom thinks the name is 201403_K5II_0957 and your operating system thinks the name is IMG957, then Lightroom will not be able to find the file, and thus will not be able to perform any operations on this file. So it gives you no advantages whatsoever, in fact it make Lightroom useless on this file.
    I would also suggest/recommend that you organize via keywords and other metadata, rather than use file names as a place to store metadata like K5II, whatever that is. There are many reasons for this, but quickly, this is the strength of Lightroom, and the weakness of file names and operating system constructs, in my opinion.

  • B&W jpeg - change date (also master) - unsupported image format

    Seeing postings for unsupported image format I found one to be reproducible:
    - scan a picture in black & white, store it as B&W jpeg (I use Vuescan for that)
    - import it into aperture
    - change the date of the picture to the past (I scan old postcards, so year might be 1900 or so)
    - tick "also change master file"
    --> bingo, when next time trying to view the picture I get "unsupported image format". Reproducible. Bug.
    best regards,

  • Why does the Pixel size of a jpeg change on a different computer?

    I have a Mac OS X version 10.8.2 and Adobe Illustrator CS6.
    When i save a file "for web" as a jpeg with a specific pixel size (320x50 for example) and then send it by email to someone, when they open it the dimensions somehow change.
    Even though on my mac when i "get info" from the jpeg the dimensions are correct...
    Please how can i stop this from happening?
    Thanks!

    DId you check clip to artboard when yo made the jpeg, did your image size shwo the correct dimensions.
    If you are checking the file on your end and it is correct, then we need to know more about what is going on at the recipeient's end and how they are determining the size is wrong.

  • JPEG changes color when I import to fcp 7

    I created this image on photoshop but when I import it to FCP, the grays become brighter. I've made sure it's already in RGB Color mode not CMYK. I've imported other pictures and there seems to be also a color change, not as drastic as this one though. So I believe it's a FCP problem not photoshop. Please help!
    EDIT: I'm on Mac OSX 10.7.5

    Delete the still from your project.
    Go to the menu Final Cut Pro > User Preferences.
    Click on the Editing Tab.
    Set "Imported Still/RGB Video Gamma" to 2.20.
    Click OK, and re-import the graphic.
    Does this help?

  • Jpeg changing sizt automatically

    I just did a fresh install of final cut studio onto a brand new hard drive. I have set all the settings to what I can remember they were but every time I import a picture, in jpg format, it changes the scale of the picture from 100% to 112.5% in the motion tab of the viewer. Are there settings that I am missing? I am scaning all the pictures @ 720x480 300dpi. Please help!!!!!!!!!

    Thanks for the tip, however, I am running Final Cut Studio Version 1 and I can't seem to find the setting that you are recommending. I have looked in all the tabs of all the different settings.

  • Jpegs change in brightness when posted

    I recently created a new website with iWeb '08. During the creation everything looked good. The images were correct in color, contrast, and brightness. However, once the site was uploaded and published the contrast and brightness changed on all the images. Now they are all too dark. Anyone else having this issue?

    There has been a huge amount of discussion in this forum about this very subject. Here's an example..

  • Bridge Image Processor always creates JPEG or TIFF folder, how do I change that behavior?

    I have searched the web, Bridge forums, and Photoshop forums, and come up empty-handed. (The strange thing is, I know there used to be a post that answered this question a few years ago.) Anyway, I use Image Processor quite a bit, and it works great except for the annoying behavior of always creating a new folder to store the newly-created images.
    I remember the solution is to change some line in a (XML?) file from "JPEG" to "". For the life of me, I can't find which file that is! I think it used to located down inside Application Support. I think.
    Thanks for help on this, it's driving me crazy!
    Jeff

    Thanks for replying! I'm running CS 5.1. Oh, now I see...I've never run Image Processor from within Photoshop, just from Bridge. You're right, it does offer different options than Bridge.
    Anyway, I found it what I was looking for.
    Open up (don't run!) the Image Processor.jsx file. I opened it up in ExtendScript Toolkit. The path is /Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS5.1/Presets/Scripts/Image Processor.jsx
    I'm on line 1574 (in other versions, the line number may vary)
    This is what the line says:
    var subFolderText = inFolderLocation + "/JPEG/";
    Change to:
    var subFolderText = inFolderLocation + "//";
    Problem solved. Repeat as necessary for other folders you don't want created (TIFF, PSD)
    Back to work!

  • Changed jpegs in camera raw but not changed.

    Does one have to run a batch on these? When I open them in preview, they are not adjusted or changed, even though they were altered in camera raw. thanks.

    kevin4545 wrote:
    …I wonder does that degrades the jpeg if I start with a jpeg, change look in ACR and then use image processor to make 10 quality jpegs?
    Yes, it does.  Every time you save or re-save and close a JPEG, it gets degraded.

  • Misteriously Colour Temperature change from my computer to others

    Ok, I've been stuck with this strange problem now. Out of the blue it started happening and realised when I uploaded some pictures on Flickr. I open my NEF file (from Lightroom) as a Smart Object and start working upon it as normal. I move it to 8 bits when finished the first steps, save as a JPEG. Close the TIFF, open the JPEG, change a couple of things as some of my filters only allow me to work JPEG (at least they are always disabled otherwise). And save again. IF I open it up from my computer, the colours are ok. Whenever I upload to Flickr OR Facebook, OR email them to anyone, the colours change. Specially the temperature. And no, it's not the monitor because I can see them on Flickr with a different colour from my very own computer.
    My basic workflow is as follows:
    Lighrtoom 2.4 => [Open as .NET smart object into CS4] => CS4 Camera RAW [Adjust Colour Temperature, Saturation, Contrast, Vibration, etc, click ok, open all adjusted on CS4 Again] => Filters adjust [Topaz Adjust, Sometimes Noisewaire or Portraiture, Nik Colour Effect (I GUESS here is the problem but not sure).
    When done with this first set, I change the picture from a 16bits format into a bits image in order to save as a JPEG. => [Save as] > .JPEG 12 (Minimum compression). I then close the open TIFF image and open the respective .JPEG image. All colours are exactly as I saved. All the same. I work upon a couple of more things (such as LUCISAR SE, for instance, smoothly). Save again. And that's it.
    I found an answer in stuckincustoms.com. He had the same problem and found the answer in correctly Colour Settings:
    [EDIT]=> [COLOUR SETTINGS] // Then select [Colour Management Policies] and move RGB to 'Convert to working RGB', all other 2 as OFF and click on 3 icons underneath. Save as a new file, close it all. Send. This seems to work sometimes, but not always. I'm not sure if it's the 'Nik Software Colour Effect' which is not holding...
    Here are two links as an example. The first one is with the right colour settings. I've done what Ratcliff told. The second one 'cooled down', even so I did what he told me to. I mean, same workflow both, different results.

    What do you mean "it dropped during transition."  If you are maintaining temperature at some level, then the transition should have no affect on the temperature unless you reinitialize or have wired a default number to the temperature you are trying to control.  I tried loading your program.  I don't have the instrument controls for the instrument you are using -- not a problem -- but it is hard to follow what you are doing.  It looks like you have many different setpoints all coming from the ni435x read.vi in a 2d array.  You should check that the values you expect out of that array are correct for each of the points that you use it.

  • Convert png photos to jpeg

    Help!  My daughter took a photo on my iphone 4 that is saved as a png file.  I can't pull it up in windows to print it out!
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Both of those cameras should be supported by PSE 12.
    Just open the NEF file in the editor. It will first load the camera raw where you can do some adjustment.
    When satisfied, make sure that the bit depth option is set to 8 bits/channel (bottom middle of camera raw window).
    Click on Open Image to open the image in the main editor window.
    Make any further adjustments you want to and then go to the File menu and select Save As
    Change the format to JPEG, change the name if you want to and then click on Save.
    You can adjust the quality on the next box (higher quality = larger file)
    If you get a message about unsupported file format, it could be that you have use the old Nikon transfer program to copy the images from the card to your hard drive. This is knoow to cause corruption. See the following for a tool to correct the files.
