I am wondering why when I try to edit a file in photoshop it will only open when I choose the render using Lightroom option.  If I choose open anyway it simply does nothing. Same thing if I choose open as smart object nothing happens. I am have the latest updates. Using latest version of lightroom and Photoshop CS5.1.  Can anyone shed some light on my issue?

    I love Julieanne Kost’s videos.  The one on the print module did not mention some gotcha’s.  I find this module very frustrating.  I have thousands of pictures of wild horses and decided to print a few pages with photos of the right and left side of the horse to make it easier to identify the many pintos.  I made a grid of 4 x 2 cells on each page and then tried to drag and drop the photos from the film strip.  The first cell filled as expected but when I tried a different photo in the next cell it replaced the first cell’s photo!  I could not figure out what was going on.  I didn’t know you had to move the photos in the film strip to put them in the order I wanted.  I had only used the print module to print single photos and had not used collections before.  After spending a lot of time trying to find out what I was doing wrong I found out you couldn’t drag and drop in the Single image/ contact sheet layout!  This took over an hour.  I tried a different style only to find that the picture package would only use one picture.  Well, the custom package did what I wanted it to do.  Great, so now I needed to print the captions with the names of the horses and spent another hour trying to get that to print only to discover you could only do that in the Single image/ Contact sheet!  In that layout you can only have cells the same size with no mixing of portrait and landscape orientation!  Not only that, I only had a picture of one side of a few horses and couldn’t skip a cell in that layout so had to go to Photoshop and create a blank photo to use as a place holder.   I had to fill the bottom of a page with blank photos to get a new page if it didn’t want pictures in all the cells of a particular page.  This all caused me hours of frustration and pounding my head on the desk.  I tried going to the book module but couldn’t create an 8 photos per page like in the contact sheet layout. 
    Maybe you could tell us why we aren’t allowed to print captions in all of the layout styles and why we can’t drag and drop in all the layout styles in any order we want.  Why the Custom Layout style isn’t the only one.  Why all the templates supplied are not using the Custom Layout package.  Why is this so hard? 
    Thank you  -- Eric Hill

  • Getting started with trial version of Adobe XI

    I downloaded the trial version of Adobe XI.  Once installed I attempted to convert a PDF document into a Word document by clicking on the "tools" as instructed in the tutorial.  I then chose convert to "Microsoft Work" and clicked on "convert".  A box then popped up asking me to purchase a year long subscription to be unlimited downloads.  I don't want to make that purchase and the pop up box asking that I purchase the subscription will not go away nor and when I click on "convert" again, it does nothing. 

    What do you mean by "Adobe XI"?
    You seem to be mixing up two entirely different ways to go from PDF to Word, because you have elements of both of them in your question.

    Hi Christoph and WarriorAnt,
    Thank you both for the replies.
    I don't know anything about GarageBand because I've never used it. I've never used any music software before, (other than iTunes, Ha!)
    I don't have GarageBand on my Mac because it wasn't stock on the old Powerbook G4, so I would have to buy it. I'm happy to do that if I can figure out that it does what I want ... but I'm overwhelmed by the info at Apple's site. Too much for a beginner like me. Even the wikipedia.com entry for GB uses too many terms I don't know, so I'm easily lost.
    I just want to be able to set up drum loops and play along with them. The main thing is that I'm able to use third party loops. There are so many really amazing loop products out there ... jungle drums, acoustic jazz drums, lounge, etc. I don't want to get caught up in anything proprietary (like Band-In-A-Box) because the selection is limited. I'm sure GarageBands loops are great, but I want access to all these other third party loops as well ... loops that were not specifically made for GarageBand.
    Will GarageBand let me drop in any and all drum loops from these other companies?
    And does GarageBand work like a basic sequencer, where I can program up an intro, X number of measures of a loop, then a turnaround, then a variation loop, then an ending, etc?
    I know the high-end stuff like Native Instruments Kontakt does this, but unfortunately it also does a kazillion other professional-level things I will never need and don't want to pay for (and which make the software more complex and daunting).
    Thank you again, both of you, for responding and helping me with this project.
    Just a little more advice on those two questions would really go a long way.
    -JOHN

  • I have Lightroom 1.4.1 and I just started shooting the Nikon D700.  I cannot get Lightroom to read my new raw files, help...

    I have Lightroom 1.4.1 and I just started shooting the Nikon D700.  I cannot get Lightroom to read my new raw files, help...  Is there a plug in or update I can get?  I can't afford new software after new camera and new lense!

    Lightroom 1.4.1 does not support native (NEF) files from the D700 because the camera didn't even exist when it was released. To get support you have two options: upgrade to Lr 2.x (paid for upgrade) or convert your NEF files to DNG.
    DNG converter 5.4 can be downloaded from http://www.adobe.com/downloads/ (see right hand side of page)

    If you are having the same problem, i.e. a disk permission problem, open your favorite search engine and search on, "change disk permissions", and I think you'll find plenty of information on how to fix the problem. This is a Lightroom forum. Your problem is with your operating system. There is no sense in rewriting instructions that are already available if you do a simple search.

    Sounds like you have an [Alt/Opt] key stuck down. Pressing this key changes to the Reset mode. If your key isn't stuck, did you recently custom map some keystrokes?

  • After upgrading to 8.0 the add-on compatability tool runs and the Getting Started web page loads every time the browser starts.

    After upgrading to 8.0 from 7.0.1 every time I start FF I get the add-on compatibility tool to run and the Getting Started web page loads along with my homepage in separate tabs as well. So far I have tried running the installer again, disabling all add-0ns and custom settings and restarting and turning off automatic updates. Nothing worked there. I got the same behavior each time. I don't know what else to try other than a full uninstall and reinstall. Something I'd like to avoid if it's possible because of the time involved. This is the second time I have posted regarding this issue. The first time I didn't get a response. A solution or a possible workaround would be greatly appreciated if anyone knows of any. As a staff member and a global forum moderator for an anti-virus company I understand how hectic things can be at times but some feedback, good or bad, on this issue would be very welcomed! Regards, Ritchie...

    Hi michaell, thanks for the reply. I tried everything in the Preferences are not saved link you provided and nothing worked there. If creating a new profile will delete all my add-ons and custom settings I might as well just do a complete uninstall and reinstall. That actually would be easier. That article told me how to save my bookmarks though so I don't have to loose those which is nice. I don't know if this makes any difference but there is a discrepancy between the preference file in the article which is: prefs.js and what's showing on my PC which is: prefs with no .js suffix. I tried to rename the file to prefs.js and restarted. No luck there either. It just created another prefs file. I guess we've pretty much exhausted all the avenues to try! I'm just going to go ahead and do a reinstall when I get the time. Thanks so much for your help michaell. I do appreciate the effort. Regards, Ritchie...

  • Signing up and getting started with HP INSTANT INK

    Signing up and getting started with HP Instant Ink
    Note: your printer must be connected to the Internet through a wireless connection.
    How does HP make sure you’ll always have ink? Your printer uses the Internet to let us know when to send more ink. Here’s how you can get all the ink you need, delivered to your door.
    Purchase an eligible printer.
    Enroll in a plan based on the number of pages you print.
    Ink, shipping, and cartridge recycling are included.
    No annual fee—Change or cancel your plan anytime.3
    We’ll mail special HP Instant Ink cartridges to you.
    Our cartridges have more ink than standard HP ink cartridges, so you’ll replace them less often.
    Billing and service start after you insert your first HP Instant Ink cartridge.
    Your printer will tell us when to send ink.
    Your service is not based on how many cartridges you use, so print as many high quality photos as you like.
    You’ll always have ink before you need it.
    See below for details on How to enroll for HP Instant Ink......

    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    When you enroll in an HP Instant Ink plan, you pay a monthly fee to print a defined number of pages per month. The plans are based on the number of pages that you print, not on how many ink cartridges you use. Your monthly fee pays for ink, shipping, and recycling. If you do not print all of your plan pages in a month, you can roll over up to the number of pages per month in your plan. If you print more pages, there is an additional charge. Ink is included — the plans are based on your usage so you pay for the pages you print, not the ink cartridges HP sends you. A printed page counts the same whether it is black and white, a color document, or a photo. Shipping is included.
    What are customers saying about HP Instant Ink?

  • I upgrade firefox from 7 to 8 and now when i start firefox everytime it opens "getting start with firefox" page, in options i select the option 'show a blank page" how can i resolve this issue?

    i upgrade firefox from version 7 to version 8, now when i start firefox everytime it open self the "getting start with firefox" website, in the options on firefox i select the 'show a blank page' but its not working. i am using firefox on windows XP- SP2.

    Try restarting Firefox, the one time page(s) after starting a new release should disappear. Actually this last time with 8.0 they did not come up for me.
    If that doesn't work then bring up '''about:config''' and place the url of the page into the filter. Right-click on anything that comes up and use "Reset".
