Manual stitching of photos in Photoshop CS5

In Photoshop CS5, is there a way to manually stitch non-overlapping photos together, rather than using the auto layouts in photomerge?

Put the photos on separate layers, align them by moving/rotating the upper layer, then use a layer mask or the eraser tool to remove parts of the upper photo where they meet up with those same parts from below (partical opacity can help you judge where this is). You can even distort images using the Transform tool as needed.
Besides matching brightness and color, if you mask the upper layer so that it's not on a straight boundary, but rather the transition follows natural lines in the image, you can make the transition between photos practically impossible to see.
As an example, I did up a composite photo of the moon from many high magnification exposures that way.

How can I use the Epson scanner Perfection V600 Photo in Photoshop cs5.1

How can I use the Epson scanner Perfection V600 Photo in Photoshop cs5.1
I am not able to see the scanner in photoshop.

Are you using a mac or windows? And what version?

I can't edit my photos in Photoshop CS5.

I'm not able to edit my photos from iPhoto in Photoshop CS5. I've already tried the Preferences and chosen Photoshop as my editing program. I can't even drag and drop the photos into Photoshop. I've even tried to email them to myself. No luck. All I can do is LOOK AT them in iPhoto! Help, I'm on a deadline!

Are you able to open and edit a photo outside of iPhoto with CS5? When you selected CS5 as the editor in iPhoto's preferences did you select the folder that holds CS5
or did you select the application:
Some have made the mistake of selecting the folder. Be sure you haven't.
The following are tips on using Photoshop from within iPhoto:
Using Photoshop CS3 (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
(the PS screenshots are from CS3)
1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's Advanced Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
Click to view full size
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
Click to view full size
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 9 the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
Click to view full size
s I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Click to view full size
NOTE: If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS/PSE without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in iPhoto". That will let you either edit in iPhoto using the Edit button or Control-clicking on the thumbnail and selecting "Edit in iPhoto" or in PS/PSE by Control-clicking on the thumbnail and selecting "Edit in External Editor" in the Contextual menu.
Click to view full size
This way you get the best of both worlds.

How to insert EXIF date time data on photo using Photoshop CS5.5

Is there any script or function available in photoshop CS5.5 which can help me in inserting date time from EXIF onto the photograph.
An automated solution which can do multiple images at once will be preferable.

Before proceeding further, it is to be highlighted that the version being referred to is Photoshop CS5 Extended which is actually Photoshop Version 12.1 and is a part of Adobe Master Collection CS5.5. A screenshot of the version information is attached below for information.
Hence, I dont understand the concern expressed by many about the lowest version eligible for scripting being available in the product.
My version is in effect 12.1 and not 7 or 8.
Accordingly someone may advise on what script to use for inserting the EXIF data onto the image. I also want that the positioning of the text is predetermined and same for a batch of images required to be processed. I dont want to fix the position of text for each individual image.

Removing Print from a Photo with Photoshop CS5's Content-Aware Fill

If I have a whole line of type on top of a photo a clients sends me and I want to remove it, can I mark the whole line off with the Healing Brush Tool and proceed? Or do I need to select each letter individually?
Thank you.

I was able to remove the whole line of typ at once and have Content-Aware Fill do its magic to the whole area where there'd once been type.

Stretched photos after editing with photoshop CS5

When I crop a photo with photoshop CS5 and then go and review it in Iphoto the picture looks like the unedited version in the "events" but when i double click on it it appears streteched. How do I fix this?
Also, when I edit a photo with CS5 (for ex: cool a picture if it is too warm) then go to look at it in iphoto it looks like the unedited version and once I click on the photo I can see the edited version.

The following is how Photoshop should be used from within iPhoto:
Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.

This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Note: to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

I downloaded all my photos on to photoshop cs5 trial period but the trial ended before I was ready can anyone help me to retrieve my photos

I downloaded my photos onto photoshop cs5 for a trial but the trial period fininshed before I was ready. Can anyone help me to retrieve my lost photos.

What are you talking about?
Photoshop is not a "container" for images, those must have existed somewhere else. (With the exception of newly created unsaved images, but as you claimed you downloaded them this case does not seem to apply.)

Photoshop CS5 - Compatibility with "Canon Easy Photo Print Pro"

Hi,
I have just downloaded and installed the trial version of Photoshop CS5, only to discover that in the Automate option (Under Files), Canon's Easy PhotoPrint Pro is no longer listed.
Canon have advised that it is not their problem.
I found that with Photoshop CS3, that this method of printing, provided most accurate colours,
I would be interested in other subscribers, who have CS5 and who print with the Canon Pixma Pro 9000,
(1) Have you found a method of using Canon Easy Photo Print Pro, and if not
(2) What settings do you find give the best results from your printer - What options do you select in the print dialogue box, etc.
Brian

Hi,
Thanks for this information - Canon came back to me with a similar responce.
Pending a resolution, which allows something similar to Canon's Easy PhotoPrint Pro to be installed as an "Add-in" to Photoshop CS5, I plan to allow Photoshop to manage colours.
This requires you to disable the printer from managing colours.
For those who have a similar problem and are not sure, how to disable Colour Management in the Pixma Pro 9000, the following is a quote from Canon:
Thank you for contacting Canon Support. Your reference/ticket number is 1031274.
We are sorry to hear about the problems you are having with your Canon Pro9000.
Please go to the 'Printing Preferences' and then select the 'Main' tab.
Here you will see a 'Colour / Intensity' option, make sure this is set
to 'Manual'. The 'Set' button will now appear active, press this button
and then go to the 'Matching' tab. Once here make sure 'Colour Correction'
is set to 'None'. This will deactivate the colour management completely.
Should you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to contact us
on the telephone number below ensuring to quote your Canon Helpdesk ticket
number noted in the subject line above. Alternatively, you can reply directly
to this email by navigating to the link below.
Best regards,

I hope that will be of help.

Want to open Kodak Photo CD files (.PCD) in Photoshop CS5. In CS4 i copied file "Photo CD.8BI" from an older version into the File Format folder. This does not work with CS5. Any fix?

I have several old Kodak Photo CD with PCD image files. I am now using Photoshop CS5. Some years ago while using Photoshop CS4 I copied a file: "Photo CD.8BI" from an older, CS2, version to the Plug-ins/File Format folder of CS4. This does not appear to work with CS5. Any fix?

It can be made to work, but you have to run the 32 bit version of Photoshop CS5, and as I recall there's an additional DLL called pcdlib32.dll that's needed from the old installation.

Hi please can you help me. I have photoshop CS5 extended, I bought a new camera Nikon D610 I want to edit my photos adobe camera raw , but when I try to open photoshop CS5 it will not open. Please can you tell me how to download and install the camera raw

HI bought a new camera Nikon D610 , I am using adobe photoshop CS5 extended, I want to edit my photos in camera raw but it is not possible to do so . I need to download camera raw plugin for CS5 can some tell me how to do so or if there is a link for the camera plugin.
Many thanks Pitt.

For that Nikon model you need ACR 8.3 that means CS6 or CC. Or you can download the DNG converter convert your Nikon RAW files to Adobe RAW files. And then process the Adobe RAW files with CS5 ACR version 6.7

Photoshop CS5 keeps closing when I try to open a photo

Ok...Photoshop launches just fine but as soon as I try to open a photo I get the message:
"Adobe Photoshop CS5 has stopped working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
Anyone else expereinced this?
thanks much!

More or less standard advice in this kind of case is:
1. Your display driver may be buggy.
Try disabling OpenGL drawing by choosing Edit - Preferences - Performance and unchecking [ ] Enable OpenGL Drawing. Restart Photoshop.
If this helps, then chances are good that you need to update your display driver. Go to the web site of the maker of your display adapter (video card) and download and update their latest. EXCEPTION: If you have an ATI Radeon card, avoid ATI Catalyst 11.3 and 11.4 - use 11.2 instead.
2. You may have a corrupted font on your system.
If you have installed any fonts since the last time Photoshop worked, this is especially likely. The workaround for this is to move all non-original Windows fonts to another folder temporarily and see if the problem goes way.
3. Your preferences may have gotten corrupted.
Photoshop maintains a lot of preferences in files, and if any kind of system fault has resulted in nonsense values being written in those files, it may be driving Photoshop batty. The preferences can be returned to defaults by pressing and holding Control - Shift - Alt when first starting Photoshop from its menu or shortcut. If you're quick enough it will prompt you to delete your preferences.
4. Your document may be pointing to a non-existent printer or something's wrong with your default printer setup.
I've seen several folks have their problems here solved by tweaking the printer setup, though I don't recall exactly what any of them did.
Good luck.

How do I export HDR photos made on Photoshop CS5 onto a flashdrive so I can use them on a window machine for commercial purposes. Adobe support claims it is a apple problem not theirs. PS the other window machine doesn't have Photoshop cs 5 installed?

Hi, How do I export HDR photos made on a macpro with photoshop cs5 onto a flashdrive so they can be imported correctly into a windows machine that doesn't have photoshop installed on it? Already exported to a HP flashdrive but they do not even show up on a windows machine. Need that capabillity since this is for commercial printing. My wife's mac laptop only shows 3/4 of the picture the rest is grayed out. Adobe support claims it is a Apple problem. Love the finger pointing and hold me blameless atitude on their part. Told them creating a picture should be like gas that can be used in anybody's car, just not their Adobe equipped ferrari. Do I need to convert the file struture so it can be read by the window machine? How would I do that ? Any comments appreciated. Doug

I certainly wouldn't expect to read native PS CS5 files with all features intact and supported on a machine that doesn't have CS5 installed. Try saving the files as flattened (no layers) TIFFs before moving them to the flash drive and trying to open them on the Windoze box.

Unable to upload Photos edited in Adobe Photoshop CS5

Hi All,
I have edited some Raw photos in Adobe Photoshop CS5.
The photo size is less than 5 MB, but while uploading them to the sites such as Picasa or Facebook, I get an error.
Not a single photo is getting uploaded.
Can anybody help me what's going wrong ?
Regards,
Vilas

Hi All,
Providing common responce to all:
I was converting the Raw files into JPEG format and was trying to upload to the online printing service sites so that I can get good quality print outs.
Since my requirement was a quality print, I would not compromise on the file size.
Also the printing sites were having one file size limit upto 10 MB.
I am using Windows 7, and recently had upgraded my browser to IE 9.
After suggestion from Manish Kumar, I tried Google Chrome, and bang.... it worked !!!
Thanks Manish and all for helping me out... The problem is sorted out now, but the upload speed is pathetic.. that I have to live with the Internet speed.
Thanks a lot once again.
Regards,
Vilas
