Linking Files to Elements

Does anyone know how or if Adobe Acrobat 3D Version 8 can link files to an element in the 3D drawing ? I can add in a link but cannot tie it to an element so that the link follows the element when the 3D PDF is rotated.
Thank,
Vinnie

I second this question.

Is there a way for photoshop to AUTO UPDATE all linked files after modified?

Using the new Photoshop 2014 (version).
This is a very frustrating task for anyone using a lot of linked files.
As a web developer, I may have 50 files that contain one linked element. If I go edit that element, I then have to find the layer on each and every file it's contained in and click "Update Modified Content". There HAS to be an easier way. I really hope I'm missing something here.
Thanks to everyone looking to help.

OK. Now I see what you meant.
And you correctly understand workaround instruction. The problem is it does not work and I don't know why.
I'm not so familiar with Automator and indeed seldom use it except for a simple services wrapper under 10.6. So I don't know of any workflows off the shelf which use "Ask for Confirmation" action. But it is easy to create a workflow that, for instance, consists of "Ask for Confirmation" action only and is set to receive no input or input from Finder or input from other application and test to see if it gets keyboard focus. As far as I can tell, this action obtains keyboard focus automatically.
Here's another workaround you may try. Replace the "Ask for Confirmation" action with a "Run AppleScript" action with the following contents. This will show similar dialogue to let you choose two options.
on run {input, parameters}
    tell application "Finder"
        activate
        display dialog "Are you sure?" with title "Permanently delete"
    end tell
    return input
end run
The workflow will look like this.

Can't open Canon Rebel T5i raw file in elements 10

I am trying to open a raw file (CR2) in my Elements 10 program, but I keep getting error messages that it's the "wrong type of file".
I've looked around & downloaded the plug-in that was supposed to fix that, but it still isn't working.
What am I missing??
PS - I am also using Windows 7, the camera raw plug in version is 6.7.0.339, and my camera is a Canon EOS Rebel T5i
*edited to add*
so I just followed this link:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=5316&fileID=4946
because it looked like my camera raw plug in needed updating, but I got an installation error code: U44M2P7

my camera is a Canon EOS Rebel T5i
The Rebel T5i was first supported by Camera Raw 7.4 which is only compatible with Elements 11 and later
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
Unfortunately Elements 10 is only compatible with Camera Raw up to version 6.7. It's not compatible with Camera Raw 7.4 so it'll never be able to open T5i Raw files.
If you want to open T5i Raw files in Elements, you'll have to upgrade to Elements 12.
Alternatively, if you want to stick with Elements 10, you can download the free DNG converter from Adobe, convert all T5i Raw files to DNGs. Then open the DNGs in Elements 10.

Linked files broken in Photoshop CC 2014 when working in the cloud across multiple computers (PC and Mac)

I'm using the new linked file option in Photoshop CC 2014, which is great. I'm working with my files in the cloud, however because I'm working on both a PC and Mac it breaks them links every time I save the file. Is there a way around this?

Hi, yes I'm having the same issue. The problem is that Adobe is not correctly connecting the linked files. They are using absolute paths user/folder/folder this is just crazy and I hope they fix this.
Changing this will fix our issue.
I'm a professional web designer and I find the use of linked items really good. My workflow consists of creating a UI folder with different elements linked into photoshop documents saved in another folder.
UI - elements
Front page folder
Second page folder
etc.
Moving these folders is impossible. Making my life really hard.
Moving them to a network drive doesn't seem an option when you need to link all the files again, for each doc.
Adobe kudos on the idea now fix the paths so this is usable across computers.

Opening Nikon D7000 raw files in Elements 8

I am unable to open Nikon D7000 NEF files in Elements 8. I have been unsuccessfull in downloading the version 5.7 update from the web site. After downloading several times the files are still not recognized in Elements 8.

I am using Windows 7. I tried selecting the folder that contained the folder holding the pictures to be converted. I then single-clicked the folder holding the pictures and hit select. A message came up stating that the source folder did not contain any supported camera raw files.I have spoken with my Elements software supplier and this is his response:
"I've done some digging and it turns out the Nikon D7000 wasn't supported in elements until the release of version 6.4 Adobe Camera Reader.So to make sure you have the latest ACR update installed. You can check which one you have by going into elements and clicking Help>About Plug-In>Camera Raw. And if it's not 6.7 then Help>Updates will find it and let you install the latest version. You could also try saving your camera files as .RAW instead of .NEF, and then opening them in elements. Adobe lightroom 4 should already have these plugins available right outside the box, but if you can save the money and run updates instead that would work just fine." I have checked for Elements updates for the Camera Raw plug-in and the message appears stating no updates are available. The camer raw plug-in version is currently 6.1.0.250.

What operating system are you using?
The most common cause is pointing the dng converter to the actual files and not just to the folder that the camera raw files are in.
There is an example of how on a windows system in this thread:

.MTS files in elements organizer: no thumbnails, not playing

Some google searching shows that i´m not alone with this problem, but i haven´t found a solution.
.MTS files plays in premiere elements (lagging terribly though) but not in elements organizer, where i get this error message:
Updated quicktime as suggested, no improvement.
Source of .MTS files is a Panasonic G5.
Running W7 64 bit. same problems in both elements organizer 11 & 12.
If it was a codec issue i assume it would not play in Premier elements either?
Any suggestions?

Hi A.T.
1. I'm using Premiere Elements 9. I have an Asus laptop with windows 8.1
2. I believe i have the latest driver. I have Intel HD Graphics. I ran a check to look for updated drivers and it came back as saying I had the latest.
Background
I've only had the laptop since October so that's how long the program has been on the computer.
I was able to use it a few days ago. At that time I had been using video from the same camera but that time it I had saved it originally to the camera's internal memory. When I had the problem last night it was with video I had saved to a memory card. A message which I do not remember came up asking if I'd like to change the preset as my current settings didn't match the video format. I said yes and then nothing worked after that. I can't even view the project I did several days ago now either.
How I search for the presets? I've never changed these before.
It is AVCHD file type and 1080 but I am unfamiliar with the how to know anything further.

You put yourself at a disadvantage by tagging on to an older thread and not starting a new thread of your own. I just saw your post now.
So let us get to the troubleshooting...
1. What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
2. This has all the symptoms of a display problem. Do you have the latest version of your video card/graphics card according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card? If so, we are going to need to delete the BadDrivers.txt file. But I need the information in "1" to tell you how to get there and do that.
Some background information please....
1. How long have you been working with this version on its current computer operating system?
2. How would you class this issue "It worked before but not now" or "it never worked before"?
3. What is your project preset?
4. What are the properties of this .mts files...AVCHD video compression? 1080i or 1080p or other?
More later in the morning.

Linking Questions cs5: Linking within the Same file, Sharing links, file size bloat

I have to make print cards for my job. Print cards being a 1 page version of the Larger package layout that the place I work manufactures. On this print card is a section for customer info on top, and the print representation on the bottom. What I've been doing is using two files. The first file is the full-scale art on one artboard, and the customer info on the second artboard, but both within one file.
On the second file, I combine the two. I still use two artboard because it's a front and back print-off. The front page (1st art board, 2nd file), is the customer info at the top (linked from the 2 art board, 1st file) and the full art shrunk to fit below (also linked). the back page (2nd art board, 2nd file) is the individual elements of the artwork, zoomed in for easier viewing. For the second page, I use masked links from the fullsize art, sized appropriately. The reason it's important that they all use links, is so if I update the art, it will update the print cards as well.
I've been trying to stream-line this process. This works ok, but the numerous links bloat the file size, and I have to email these to customers. I've started using "Flatten Transparency" on all my Print cards (2nd file) and saving it as a separate .pdf. This cuts out the links, but then all of my masked images are hiding the whole original file behind their mask. So then I started manually cropping each individual masked area, which helps, but once I've gone through this whole process, I don't think I've saved any of the time my template was supposed to save.
file://localhost/Users/troubleinthemaking/Desktop/PRINT%20MINI%20EXAMPLE.pdf
My questions are these:
Is there any way to link to elements within the same file? Like from a different artboard?
I've successfully 'Placed' an artboard from the same file, back into that file (but a different artboard), but this creates a never-ending Save/Update loop. I'd like a better way to do this.
Is there a way to have all instances of a linked file, draw from the same place? i.e. When you update a single link, all instances of that Link would update. plus this would, in theory, cut down on the file size.
Is there any way to automatically have every masked link crop itself after using the flatten transparency command?
Even if I had to select them first. I haven't had any luck selecting them all and then using the pathfinder crop tool. I've had to do each one individually.
I know this last one can't really be answered without seeing everything on my machine. I don't even know what info I'd need to give...
WHY MY FILE SIZE SO BIG!
Thanks ahead of time.
-Jefferson

Jefferson:
There's a few things you can do to make your files smaller, such as using the Action "Delete All Unused Panel Items" which will removed all unused Symbols, Graphic Styles, Brushes and Swatches from your Illustrator files. Those little items add up to bloating a file.
You also need to examine the images that you place into your Illustrator file. Any unnecessary layers or channels? Can the files be flattened before being placed in Illustrator? You can always keep a "working" Photoshop file of all that extra goobledeegook and then flatten the file and do a "Save As" and place that in the Illustrator file. And that could be a Photoshop EPS saved with a TIFF Preview and JPEG Encoding (Maximum Quality), which will save some MBs.
But, you should never sacrifice file size for quality. If these files are going to print, you should be using an FTP program to transfer the files and not email them. Email should not be used for files over 5 MB. If all you want to do is send the customer a Low Resolution PDF Proof for approval via Email, that's fine and dandy, but send the final large size files to the Printer via FTP.

Not all my Jpeg files from elements moved to Revel, why?

I went in to check what files from elements were downloaded in the new Revel system and a significant number of my Jpeg pictures did not move over. Is there a reason? OMG I hope figuring out which ones weren't moved will be easy like "download whole elements library" or something to that effect.
I got an email that said my download was complete but on some page somewhere in the MANY places I have been to sort this out the "all files have been downloaded" was not yet highlighted so does that mean that things are not done yet?
OMG I am so frustrated. I am ready to store my pictures on Amazon Cloud. Seems like a more friendly system. I am not a tech savy person. I know enough to be frustrated.

You'll need to use ACR 8.3 RC1. I found it at http://www.freewarefiles.com/downloads_counter.php?programid=24402. ACR 8.3 final won't work with PSE11. Make sure you click the correct download link - 'Direct Download 1' to get the zip file 'cameraraw8-3cs6_r1_win_110713.zip'.
If your system can't open zip files I highly recommend the free 7-Zip (Google it) to do so.
The '1033' file the instructions refer to is in payloads\AdobeCameraRaw7.0All-051113155157\Assets1_1.zip.
* At your own risk! If any of this is incomprehensible stick with the DNG converter - that's the officially supported method and you'll need to install it anyway to get the profiles installed.

I have a canon D70 camera and I can't download my raw files to elements 11 or lightroom 4

I have a canon D70 camera and I can't download my raw files to elements 11 or lightroom 4

If you don't use the DNG Converter to create DNGs from your raw files, then you'll need to purchase LR 5 to us LR with your camera that is newer than LR4; however, there is something you can do for PSE11:
ACR 8.3 will work with PSE11 to open 70D files, but there is no installer, so you have to be a little devious to get things to all work. You also need to be on a Windows 7 or 8 since ACR 8.3 supposedly doesn't work on Vista. I should also say that the process outlined below does work on my Windows 7 64-bit computer, but I also have PS-CS6 and PS-CC installed on it, so it is possible that ACR 8.3 is dependent on something that wouldn't exist on a computer with only PSE installed on it, but someone else will have to confirm that.
I was able to get 70D files to open in ACR 8.3 on PSE11 by doing the following:
Download the ACR 8.3 for Windows update for PS-CC via the direct download link on the Adobe Blog:
http://blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2011/03/keeping-photoshop-up-to-date.html#notconnected
Unzip this downloaded setup.zip to a folder somewhere.
Inside the files from that zip is a folder called payloads \ AdobeCameraRaw8.0All-031213015928. Note that this is the folder without x64 in the path. PSE11 is a 32-bit program so we need the 32-bit version of the plug-in.
Inside that folder is another ZIP called Assets1_1.zip so unzip it somewhere.
Inside Assets1_1.zip there is a file called 1003. This is the largest file in that zip and is the plug-in you need.
Copy this 1003 file into the existing PSE11 camera raw plug-in folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 11\File Formats or for a 32-bit Windows OS, into: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 11\File Formats
Rename the existing Camera Raw.8bi to Camera Raw.8bi_7 (in case something doesn't work and you need to rename it back, later).
Rename 1003 to Camera Raw.8bi
After these steps you have the ACR 8.3 plug-in installed in PSE11 but not the camera and lens profiles, so install those by downloading and installing the DNG Converter 8.3:

Hi,
The D7100 requires ACR 7.4 to read the NEF files.
You would need Photoshop Elements 11 to be able to install that ACR or version 12 which has it in already
You could get Lightroom but if you do any manipulation of images using layers and the like, you might still need an editor like the Elements editor. Lightroom doesn't have facial recognition if you use that facility.

I need to know how best to import .mod files into elements 7

I need to know how best to import .mod files into elements 7

lornamarieslade
Are you working with .mod standard or widescreen?
If .mod standard, less problematic. The file just might import without issue. Worst case would probably be changing the file extension from .mod to .mpg just prior to import.
Now .mod widescreen is another story that revolves around maintaining the 16:9 flag that scretches the video for display after encoding. Some have said that the 16:9 flag is lost in the transfer to computer; some say certain editors such as Premiere Elements just cannot read/recognize the flag. Whatever the case this is what you should consider in your Premiere Elements 7 Windows.
a. If you need to rename the file extension from .mod to .mpg, do so prior to import.
b. Import the .mod or .mpg counterpart into your Premiere Elements 7 project using the project preset NTSC or PAL DV Widescreen (NTSC or PAL depends on your location of interest). You will probably see that the video does not fill the space in the Edit Mode Monitor (you will probably see standard 4:3 looking image rather than widescreen 16:9 looking image).
c. Right click the file in the Project media area, select Interpret Footage, and, in the Interpret Footage Dialog/Pixel Aspect Ratio section, dot the Conform To: and change the setting to
D1/DV NTSC Widescreen 16:9 (1.2)
or
D1/DV PAL Widescreen 16:9 (1.422)
depending on your location of interest.
A while back there used to be a program called SD Copy that did the job of file name change and adding the 16:9 flag prior to import of the .mod widescreen into Premiere Elements. But, I have lost track of the SD Copy and suspect that is it no longer available. I have dealt with this issue many times at a forum that I formerly frequent. Most have reported back that this workaround worked for them. It is worth a try. I am looking forward to your results.
If you do opt to upgrade to Premiere Elements 11 Windows (please go tryout before purchase), I am eager to learn how your .mod widescreen is handled by version 11 in your computer environment.
Thanks.
ATR
Add On...I just came across this download for SDCopy. It does not give the appearance of the original the link to which is broken. I have not downloaded and used the following since I do not have any .mod widescreen. So, no guarantees. Please let us know the outcome if you try it if Interpret Footage does not work for you.

ID CS4 Anti-Alias problems with Linked files

All the linked files i have put into Indesign CS 4 whether they are PSD, Tiff,layered or flat have shown up slightly pixelated. When i print the same file from its native program (in this case Photoshop CS4) the files print clean and crisp and the text and artwork have clean edges but when i link the file into an Indesign CS4 doc and then print it off, the file comes out fairly clean but there are jagged lines on the text and art.
Mac OX 10.4.11
Intel Mac Pro G5
4GB Ram
2X 2.66 Dual Core Intel Xeon
250GB HD

I now understand your question and yes in the graphics tab in my Indesign print settings I have it set to send all data. I exported the indesign file as a high res PDF and the output on the printer was the same. I don't believe its a printer setting because when i switch my display performace from typical to high-res the text and art from the linked file look pixalated. On the layered psd file the text files are not converted and yet when displayed through ID CS4 the text looks fuzzy and slightly pixalated.
Any Help would be greatly appreciated.

Unable to open linked files in new CS3 install

One of my clients just purchased a new PC (Dell Inspiron 537S) with Windows Vista Home Premium to replace his old Inspiron 530 (also running Vista HP). After installing CS3 Design Studio and attaching an external drive loaded with his file archive, all of his Illustrator files which include links load with the following error:
"An error occurred trying to read the linked file "file.xxx". Choose Repair to locate the missing file, Replace to select another file or Ignore to leave the link unchanged."
This shouldn't be unusual, if the path to a linked file has changed, you'd need to point the link to the new path, but clicking Repair or Replace and browsing to the linked file (which invarably is in the same directory as the .ai file, and is usually a .psd which opens just fine in Photoshop) just cycles back to the same error message, ad infinitum. After about 30 tries, I got one of the links to load correctly, resaved the document, thinking that would repair it, but when I opened it again, got the error.
These files were created on multiple computers, and none of the other computers (all with CS3) have ever had any trouble opening them. This despite the drive letter on the external drive being unstable on the old system (would often be J:, K: or L:, and images always worked).
Any new .ai files we create on this file which have links all work fine.
Manually replacing the links in a file is not an option for two reasons:
1. There are thousands of .ai files in this archive, and re-linking images in them will take weeks.
2. It simply doesn't work. I tried ignoring the error on one file to load it, and re-linking the .psd backgrounds to re-save it, and the images still didn't load after re-linking them.
I have already tried doing a factory-restore of the system and reinstalling CS3, making sure that there were no errors in the install. What else might cause this behavior, and how can I resolve it?

What else might cause this behavior, and how can I resolve it?
Outdated permissions on the files from your old computer. Right-click, Properties --> Security --> Advanced, disable Inherit settings from parent folders, chose to copy. After that, delete outdated security keys and assign current ones. You may even need to go so fart as to Take Ownership of some files to correctly restore the new system's default security settings.
