Multiple Photos in Actions

I am using automator to send photos to photoshop. each photo comes in for my camera at different times. I need them to all get inputed into photoshop and into the same photoshop document. If anyone has any ideas how to accomplish that, I would be very grateful. Thanks!

I am not going to build a photo booth. I am a photographer and I would like to set up a camera on a tripod with a wireless remote for guests to take the photos on their own.
That's the easy part.
I would like to have the photos being dumped into a single folder. That is Also easy. What I am looking for is a way for Automator to send each photo to a single Photoshop document (pre made template).
My problem is that Automator opens each photo in a new document. What I am doing currently is having it then run an action that duplicates the document and creates a new combined document.
But Automator and Photoshop don't know when to stop after 4 photos.
I hate PC and would like to keep it all down on my Mac. I don't script well or know java at all.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

How can I send multiple photos in an email?

How can I send multiple photos in an email?

In Photos, when looking at your pictures, click the Action arrow first (upper right), before selecting any pictures. Then you can tap select the pictures you want to send then click "Share" in the upper left. From there you can Email.
If you click and open one picture first, the Action button will only allow you to share that one picture.
(Yeah, took me a while to figure this out. )

Resizing multiple photos in Photoshop

I am trying to resize multiple photos by using the batch option. I have created an action and then go into batch and select that action. It's not working. Anybody have any ideas on how I can resize my photos all at once??

It sounds as if the Action is not correctly recorded. Have you tested it on a single image?
Is there a Stop" in it?
You can always use the one-step convenience of the Image Processor!

Lightroom 4 Keywording Multiple Photos

I'm in library mode and trying to add the same series of keywords to a group of about 60 photos. All these photos are highlighted at the bottom of my screen but one photo appears to be highlighted more brightly. I've typed in a group of keywords in my sidebar and then clicked enter. I thought that action should tag all 60 photos with the same keywords but it doesn't. Only the brightly highlighted photo gets the keywords. Surely there has to be a way to tag multiple photos with the same keywords all at once. I've watched Cris Orwig's video on Adobe and am following the same steps he demonstrates but the keywords are only tagged to the one photo. Am I missing something simple here?
Thank you
Mark

I just reviewed http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-lightroom-5/adding-keywords/ in which Chris Orwig clearly shows adding keywords to multiple images in the filmstrip, NOT in the grid view. Of course, MY Lightroom doesn't allow me to add keywords to multiple images using the method shown in this video. And just an added note that this is the EXACT same video shown under the label "learn-lightroom-4/adding-keywords/ so I don't know if this could be done in v4 but not in v5 and someone just screwed up by reusing the same video..... Thanks Jim Wilde and everyone else for your help. I was starting to pull my hair out.

PSE7: is it possible to process multiple photos?

Hi all
I am new here, and I am just learning to use PSE7 for my scanned slides (I am still shooting film only). My question is can you process (in PSE7) let's say whole film, scanned in TIFF, kept in one folder..............I read "Process multiple files"; and also in my PSE7 book I have there is mentioned proses multiple photos in camera RAW........ none seem to do what I would like to. The thing is I need to do one or two simple adjustmens (like warm it up and change tint a bit) and than aply it to whole folder (37 pics), since it is a sequence with identical lighting and the same colors and exposure (all I do is to try match slides as closely as possible) Is there a way to do it?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Not this kind of one in PSE.
In photoshop you can create action and then run it on your images. You can use that created action in PSE but you can not create action from PSE

How does one label and add description to multiple photos?

How does one add label and description to multiple photos in one action as one could do in iPhoto?

This link asks the same question, https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6994338?searchText=How%20do%20I%20add%20a%2 0description%20to%20multiple%20photos?
Someone shows the method to use AppleScript/ Automator to make Photos add the same description to multiple photos. I just opened up AppleScript editor and poked around the Dictionary for Photos and saw we have access to GPS longitude,latitude and altitude. So by using a third party app/web page to get those values, an Apple Script could be used to batch add the info to selected photos. That being said, I'm really busy these days and lack time to write scripts and migrate to photos.

If I open a photo in "preview", multiple photos open. I just want to open one, but can't figure out how to do it.

I keep multiple photos in a desktop folder to be quickly accessed by using Preview. But when I try to open ONE photo, it opens multiple photos. Can't figure out how to display just the single one that I select. OS 10.7.2

This is the resume feature of Lion. The last state of the application is saved when quitting (i.e last pictures viewed in Preview, last videos viewed in Quicktime etc).
You can switch it off for Preview by copy and pasting the following in to the terminal application
defaults write com.apple.Preview NSQuitAlwaysKeepsWindows -bool false

Can't email multiple photos

i received my new iPhone 6 with iOS 8.1 about a week Or two ago, and it's workjng great. Today I tried to email my mom about 4 pictures from the camera roll/photo album As I always have. unfortunately, after I clicked the mail icon, I was taken to the "add account" screen. If I try to add my gmail account, or even my hotma accont, it tells me the account is already set up.
Some some steps ive tried are: resetting network setting, resetting ALL settings, deleting all accounts, resetting phone and adding the accounts back in. My gmail account is set as the default mail account, I can send and receive fine. If I click the "more" button from within an email, I can add a single photo just fine. My email send and receives fine.
Anyome have any idea how to fix this? certainly not a huge problem, but annoying nonetheless.

tthough I had tried this before, I attempted it again when prompted. It setup my hotmail account fine, but instead of taking me to the email with attachments, it leaves me in the settings screen. When I go back and try to send them again from the camera roll, it briefly said "preparing" then went right back to the "add account" screen.
YEs, sending multiple photos through iMessage or SMS works fine, as does every other option other than email.

HT201317 how can I add multiple photos to camera roll

If you mean from photo stream, open your photo stream album on your phone in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos to select them, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.

Emailing multiple photos from camera roll

Search threads but didn't find. Can multiple photos from camera roll be sent in an email on the iPhone 4

In round about way yes.
Go to photos.
In thumbnail view click menu item (think moved to top right in iOS4) to enable multiselect.
Select photos (up to 5 ... sorta) and then you can click share.
The sorta part is that if you do more than 5 the share will go away, but you can still select more, then choose copy, then go open email and paste in more than 5.

Scan in mutiple photos in one file, can I crop multiple photos...

at same time?
I don't know how to scan multiple photos as distinct file. I scan 5-6 pics it comes out at one file that I import into iPhoto. While it's very easy to crop each photo out of the file, I have to import the file as many times as there are photos
to crop.
I hope I've been clear. Is there a smarter way to work. I don't see a way to scan
the 5-6 pics as different files in my scanner software.
Thanks

Joshua:
Vuescan is a 3rd party scanning application which can do batch scanning but is a little more difficult to set up. It works with most scanners.
If you have a Canon scanner you can scan in multiple photos at one time and have the scanner software crop, not as close as I'd like, each one individually and present to you in the editor of your choice or the one that comes with it.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

In an album in Photos touch the Edit button and then touch the desired photos (up to 5). A blue check appears in each selected photo. Next touch the Share button at the upper left and select Mail. This starts a email with the photos attached.

How do I import or move multiple selected photos to an existing album in iPhoto 9.6? In previous versions I could select and drag multiple photos into an album. Now I can only move one photo at a time. Help!

How do I import or move multiple selected photos to an existing album in iPhoto 9.6? In previous versions I could select and drag multiple photos into an album. Now I can only move one photo at a time. Help!

Try this general troubleshooting procedure:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete the contents the following folder: User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: For Mavericks and Yosemite, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

How can I delete multiple photos at once from the official Photos app?

Dear fellow Apple users,
I have many pictures on my Camera Roll in Apple's Photos app. What's the quickest way to delete multiple photos at once?
Thus far, I know how to delete photos one by one, but that's time-consuming.
Thank you.

No not box with arrow, that is share button. Edit is where it shows in the pic I posted
