Live Photoshop 3D Import Help

I've been trying to get a 2D logo imported into after effects as a 3D image with a slight extrusion to add some depth. I can create the image as I want in photoshop as a 3D image layer, and I save it as a .PSD file. Whenever I try to import the image into after effects as a composition, I do not get the checkbox for "Live Photoshop 3d". I've been looking around, but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Any help?

Seems odd to remove features.
Look up the "It was too much work" threads on this forum for explanations why things got chopped.
What was it replaced with?
Nothing. you need to buy plug-ins to import 3D geometry.
I've tried the extrusion in AE, but it only works on solids.
Read the help! It works with text and shape layers.

Can you still import a 3D photoshop file into After Effects to edit in 3D? (not getting the Live Photoshop 3D choice?)

trying to import a 3d photoshop file into ae, but it is not coming through as a 3D file despite the hundreds of videos that I have watched on it. I am not getting the live photoshop 3d tick box as an option on import...help!!!

No, these features have been removed since CS6.

3D photoshop file to After Effects live photoshop 3D help CS5!

please help,
I can make my photoshop 3D logo but I try to open the .PSD in After Effects and change it to a compossision and enable live photoshop 3D, but when I open the comp its just a 2D picture and only has 1 layer and no cameras. My 3D logo is from a imported .jpg that I made in illustrator. I select it then make a repousse and it works but the problem is importing to AE. I've tried 3D > Export > 3D file saved as photoshop format, and I've tried saving as just a psd but they both do the same thing. All I get is a psd in after effects with only 1 layer containing my logo in 2D on a white background.
please help! what am I doing wrong?
much appreciation.

Probably, not too long to go...

I`d like to import a 3D-psd-file. Missing the "Live Photoshop 3D"-field in the import-window.

I got a 3D-file (3ds). I would like to animate it.
In Photoshop there all layers and the gfx is perfect.
Saving.
While importing the file into After Effects, I should chose "Live Photoshop 3D", but there isn't any possibility.
This should be an add-on, plug-in, etc.
Does anybody know, how to get it..?

What version of AE do you have? If you have CC or CC 2014 (versions 12 and 13 respectively), you can use Cinema 4D to render this. Cinema 4D Lite comes free with After Effects! details of CINEMA 4D integration with After Effects CC

Live Photoshop 3D

Hi!
i was amazed when i found out that this was possible but was very pissed to find out that I cant make this work. when i import it, the .psd file is just a 2d image like a normal boring picture in the composition. it doesn't have any cameras or null obejct in it. i've done everything but for some reason my after effects can't read the .psd file with the 3d layers or there's something wrong with my photoshop.
when i right click it (02:53 on the video) a message appears:
after effects error: no photoshop 3d layers were found
importing it and enabling live photoshop 3d like in the video doesn't work for me
so basically what i've done is open a .3ds or .kmz or. DAE (since i can export models in three different formats and from what i've been told photoshop can handle them) i didn't do anything to them and just saved them as a .psd. then i imported them in after effects clicking the live photoshop 3D and making it a composition. after that it just imports it just like a normal 2d image without a camera and null object inside a composition.
i have cs5 of photoshop and cs4 of after effects.
thanks in advance!

Hi!
Thank you all for your help and answers but unfortunately the problem still persist....
I've re-Installed my Photoshop CS4 and done the same things again. Here it still doesnt work.
It's like i never even installed CS4. It still gives me the same results like before..
I dont wanna give up but this is getting on my nerves...
Thanks anyways guys!

Surely you realize the simple issue this creates: neither solution works for CS6 users. Hence, why I feel like such users are left in the cold when it comes to importing 3D.
Am I crazy? What am I missing about this simple issue? Pre-CS6 users didn't have to pay extra to import 3D; CC users don't have to pay extra to import 3D; why should I?
After Effects (any version) doesn't have the capability to directly import and use 3D model files, if that's what you desire. Plug-ins for After Effects CS6 like Video Copilot's Element 3D, AtomKraft, and Zaxwerks ProAnimator and 3D Invigorator allow you to work with 3D files. Cinema 4D and 3DS Max have integrated workflows with After Effects CS6 that exchange their 3D data with After Effects.
Outside of this, a common workflow is to render your 3D model to a sequence file, and then to import that into After Effects. This works regardless of which 3D modeling application or which version of After Effects you are using. Here's some information and links to resources:
http://helpx.adobe.com/en/after-effects/using/preparing-importing-3d-image-files.html#impo rting_and_using_3d_files_from_other_applications
There's lots of information available about workflows between 3D modeling applications and After Effects that don't involve Photoshop. If you're having trouble finding what you need, I recommend creating a new thread with specific information about what applications you're using and what you're trying to accomplish.

Photoshop CS activation help needed

My desktop computer died and had to be replaced. I installed Photoshop CS and have had the world's worst nightmare trying to get it activated.
1. Attempts at on-line activation produce repeated messages that the on-line activation service is not available and suggests phone activaiton.
2. The automated phone activaiton system tells me it is unable to complete the activation and tells me to press a number to get phone help. Pressing that number gives you a recorded message saying that phone line help is no longer avaiable and sends you to www.adobe.com/go/activation.
3. www.adobe.com/go/activaiton automatically switches you to http://www.adobe.com/products/activation/, which then gives you a page not found message and leaves you on a page with no useful help.
How can I get a phone number that lets me reach a real live person who can help or a real email address that allows asking a quesiton from a real live person?
Argggggggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

I installed Photoshop CS and have had the world's worst nightmare trying to get it activated.
Not surprising really. The activation server was permanently decommissioned in 2012.
You now need to download a fresh, non-activation version of CS2 from Adobe and use the new serial number provided to license it without requiring activation. Your existing serial number will no longer work.

Where do the MEDIA FILES live after I import them from camera to iMovie (Mac Mini OS X 10.9.2)? I need to MOVE MEDIA FILES to external hard drive.

Where do the MEDIA FILES live after I import them from camera to iMovie (Mac Mini OS X 10.9.2)? I need to MOVE MEDIA FILES to external hard drive.

Hello bbryson68,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post I understand you're wanting to move iMovie project and event data to another drive. I found the following information in the iMovie help that answers your question.
Copy or move projects, events, or clips between libraries or storage devices
Connect a storage device that contains the target library to your Mac, or copy the target library to your Mac.
Choose File > Open Library, and choose an option from the submenu.You can choose from recently opened libraries, locate an existing library on your Mac, or create a new library.The selected library is opened in the Libraries list, with the first event selected and its contents displayed in the browser.
In the Libraries list, select the event that contains the item you want to move or copy.
In the browser, select the item you want to move or copy.Tip: To select multiple clips or projects in the same library, hold down the Command key as you click the items you want to select, or drag a selection rectangle around the items.
Do one of the following:
To move items between events or libraries: Drag the clip or project to another event or library.
To copy items between events or libraries: Option-drag the clip or project to another event or library by first starting to drag and then holding down the Option key as you drag.
Work with multiple libraries

Menu Overlays created in Photoshop aliasing badly - help

Hello all, I'm creating a menu pages using flattened images from photoshop, once imported, if I select them in the viewer they appear good but once I apply them to a background image they alias badly. I've tried both highlight selections (simple & advanced) really no improvement. What am I missing here? I'm sure it's simple. Thanks in advance. Oh and I've set my photoshop files to 720 x 480 at 72 dpi- also tried 720x534, no improment there either.

All overlay files look un anti-aliased because the subtitle stream does not supprt antialiasing. Take any Hollywood movie and look at the overlay highlights, they have the same problem to deal with.
The key is to optimize your design to cut down on the jaggies. I use retangles as highlights all the time. Any rounded edges will show jaggies. Reducing opacity sometimes helps to hide it as does using advance overlays and creating a stroke around your highlight.

Can't download Photoshop Can anybody help please?

I am the proud new owner of an extended photoshop subscription.
Unfortunately a virus has caused a general meltdown and I have had to reinstall my operating system.
Now I am unable to download and reinstall photoshop
Can anybody help please?

Which version of Photoshop are you trying to download? Is it Photoshop 5.1?
What operating system are you using?

Why can't I access Photoshop CS4 online help?

Why can't I access Photoshop CS4 online help?

Yes, you are right. The web-based online help is available only for the current version of Photoshop. I also discovered how to access the online help that originally came on my CS4 disk. You turn on the offline option (Windows>Extensions>Connections). With the online help from the disk and the PDFs you pointed out, I am happy. Thank you very much. (I hope I have replied to everyone correctly. I am new to this.) My thanks to everyone.

Cannot install my costco photoshop 12 please help. it is now installing itself. Will take it back tomorrow.

I have been working on installing this software for weeks now and am at the end. The first time the organizer installed but the editor wouldn't. I have uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times and am ready to take this application back to the store. I have a Vista machine.

It still didn't work. I paid for Photoshop 12 at Costco. The organizer downloaded just fine but when I tried to use the editor, the screen appeared asking for my Adobe sign on, I signed on, and then the application just churned. I had to use task manager to stop it. Per your instruction, I downloaded Photoshop 13 from the site, it downloaded fine and then asked for my Adobe sign on and then just churned. I can now access Photoshop 13 organizer but still can't get editor.
This is ridiculous. Last night I did the msconfig.exe and followed the instructions on changing the start up menu and disabling everything.
I am furious about this. It looks like you want me to pay for Photoshop Elements 13 when I can't get 12 to work. This is a Vista machine.
