My External Editor is Not Working!

I have CS3 and Fireworks CS3, recently upgraded from Macromedia 8 suite. Now when I try to access Fireworks CS3 from DW I get an error message.
I did check the preferences panel to make sure that I've specified Fireworks as the primary editor with the types of files I need. But the pencil button on the properties panel won't launch anything.
The error message says its looking for the Fireworks 8 program, not the new version even though I correctly pathed the new version in the prefs panel. It also says there may not be enough memory to launch, but I have 2gb, and the Task Manager panel shows I have 1.4 GB available.
What am I missing?

Hi
First thank you for the compliment on the site, it's not finished yet, (and probably never will be completely finished) but I wanted to try my 'experimental' dreamweaver extension for using php's pdo on a live site, so I 'publish before it was really ready.
One thing to check before you re-install is that your old installation is uninstalled, (should not make a difference) as I seem to recall having a similar problem until I uninstalled my old version of Fireworks.

Edit in External Editor does not work

Hi,
I added as External Editor Photoshop CS3, but no matter what option I chose as file format, bit depth or color space, Lightroom will always apply the defaul setting in "Edit in Adobe Photoshop CS3" preference tab, rather than the one I select.
Do you know how to sort this problem out?
Thanks

Apparently Adobe associates the Edit In settings with the physical path of the executable so you cannot specify two sets of settings with one EXE; however, you can trick it into working by making a copy of the executable with a different name, and associate that second copy with the secondary Editor. I copied Photoshop.exe to Photoshop_.exe and the settings can be independently specified.

Sending to external editor does not send adjustments

Hi all - having an issue sending to more than one external editor.
I send to a NIK plugin (color efex), apply a fillter and then save.
After that I may want to send to Photoshop.
If I make any ajustments in Aperture (to the filtered file - the new TIFF master) before sending to the second external editor thos adjustments will be ignored.
For example -
I start with a RAW file. I make adjustments in Aperture. All Good.
I send this to Color Efex and give it a cross process. Save.
Back in Aperture i now have a TIFF file (cross processed).
If I then (for the sake of this example) completely desaturate the color (now its black and white) and then send this TIFF to photoshop using the send to external editor command the image in photoshop will be *color* - with the cross processing on it.
If I cancel this and then go back to Aperture and send the Black and White Picture to Colour effects again, it's also not black and white.
In summery the adjustments made after the first "send to external editor" do not carry to the second "send to external editor"
(It should be noted that any adjustments made before the first "send to external editor" do in fact carry to the external editor. It's only the second round that does not.)
Am i looking at a bug here?
Any others had this experience.

Here is an Apple provided tip for working with Photoshop as an External Editor (which by extension currently applies to any use of third-party software used to edit images in conjunction with Aperture).

when I send the RAW Document for external editing (Elements 10) nothing happens at all ... zero :-(
a friend of mine has the same problem - also updated from LR3 to LR4, external editor: elements 10
Which process version is the image you're trying to edit externally?
You right-click (I'm assuming PC, can't help Macs), there should be a context menu option "Edit in". You choose that, and there's an option for Elements 10 or not?
If so, what happens when you select it? Do you get any further message?
If not, you may have to go to Edit menu, preferences, External Editing tab and create a preset for Elements. In the "Additional External Editor" area, click "Choose" and navigate to wherever Elements is on your machine and you can create a new external editor.

HT6065 I have a problem with my Mac book pro, my external monitor is not working and i need it to do my business. Please can someone help me with this. I am running windows 8 on parallels.

It was working untill i did the update

My Ipad 2 external speakers does not work and headphones has popping sound. This all occured at the same time as my Iphone and Ipod headphones only played mono (no, the "mono" option is not on). How can there be audio issue for all these devices?

My IPad 2 external speaker does not work and the original headphones have popping sound when used. This all occurred at the same time as my IPhone and IPod headphones only plays mono (and no, the "mono" option is not on) with the original headphones, as well as, other headphones tested. How can there be audio issue for all these devices at the same time?
As you may have noted from the list of Apple devices I own, I believed in the Apple and the products it was producing; but it is hard to believe from my experience and the other voices within the Apple Community that we are all experiencing the same hardware issues. Especially since I recently, I upgraded to an IPhone 4g (no, my faith in IPhone 5 series is very little) and is experiencing the same audio problem as described above. So now, I am off to the Apple store again to be told that it’s a hardware problem on new IPhone. Really? Apple, what happen to the pride in the product you were producing?

Everyone does things a little differently. I love to "jam " along with iTunes ( or old Lp's) . Always have. That's where/how I've learned to play .
I'm sure leonieDF is giving a proper way to jam along on a keyboard with an iTune. He blows my mind all the time with what he knows. Nuff respects to him !
What I do is make a GB project I call "Jam With". I'll make several new tracks that are blank. Just has a few instruments named in the blank tracks. You can change those per song ...
Because I'm not concerned about changing the pitch / key.... of the iTune or the tempo ... I can simply play along with it.
Peace,

External mouse scrolling not working

The scrolling function of my external mouse does not work when the MacBook Pro is not plugged in with its powercord. The mouse buttons seem to be functioning. So does as an external keyboard. My wife has the same problem (using 10.6.2 OS). There are no options in the System Preferences that deal with this. Is this just an oversight by Apple? This basically makes using an external keyboard and mouse a nonviable option for a laptop unless you are near an electric outlet. If you know of a workaround I would appreciate the information. If not, it is something Apple will have to correct as it a pretty obvious oversight.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Tony

Check your settings when it is unplugged to make sure they are still properly configured. You might even want to try and disable the trackpad when a mouse is being used. I would also check out USB Overdrive (Shareware).

You need to get some software that allows your Mac to read and write to the NTFS disk. There's a whole bunch of stuff out there, but this program has a good review, and you can try it for free. I would move everything off of your external drive, reformat it into Mac OSX extended, and use it for your Mac. You don't need NTFS anymore, unless you still have a Windows computer that needs it.

External command is not working in File Receiver Adapter

Hi,
   I have tried to copy the file which is mentioned in my File Adapter (Receiver) to 3 different folders thru OS command. The purpose is to save time. I have created one CC for Source(File) and one CC for target(File). After the target file is created, I want to copy this file in 3 folders. For this I have written one batch file in my system.
File Name: copy1.bat
@ECHO OFF
COPY %1 C:\TEST1\arch_t1
COPY %1 C:\TEST2\arch_t2
COPY %1 C:\TEST3\arch_t3
DEL %1
The command which I entered in the Receiver CC (File Adatper is)
Run Operating System Command After Message Processing
Command Line: C:\FILES\copy1.bat %F %f
Timeout(secs): 60
Terminate Program After Timeout - Check box is selected.
But, this external command is not working. (because the target files are not created in those directories C:\TEST1, C:\TEST2, C:\TEST3)
   I did this scenario by refering the Michael'w weblog:
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2007/02/08/xipi-command-line-sample-functions
   In this blog, he has also given how to troubleshoot external command. I tried this also. It is not working.
    I use Windows XP OS. XI 3.0 SP 18.
   Friends, Could you kindly tell why this external command is not working? What could be the problem?
Thanks in advance.
Kind Regards,
Jeg P.

Hi, Jeg.
As the note says, please check the java Runtime.exec behavior
with the proper user.
If in doubt, check if the command can be successfully run through
the Java Runtime.exec(...) API. Also note that the command is run
as user "<sid>adm" (Unix) / "SAPService<SID>" (Windows).
So, Could you check the following(very dirty one!) Java in your
XI server and check if it works? For simulating %F, create a test
file C:\FILES\test.txt whatever the content is.
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class ExecJava {
public static void main(String args[]) {
    try {
      Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
      Process proc = rt.exec("C:/FILES/copy1.bat C:
FILES
test.txt");
    } catch (Exception e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
Good Luck.

Adobe photoshop elements 12 organizer works, but adobe photoshop elements 12 editor does not work--it thinks it is a trial version

adobe photoshop elements 12 organizer works, but adobe photoshop elements 12 editor does not work--it thinks it is a trial version.HELP
If I try to register 4 boxes circle endlessly.Why should I have to register editor separately from organizer?

jaroFocb'15 wrote:
This is almost the same as the problem I had. I'm my case the Editor installed but not the Organizer! Adobe chat told me they no longer have chat or any other services for Elements 12. I guess they want people to buy their new Elements 13, but that leaves us in a bad place and doesn't say much for how Adobe cares about their customers After it moves on to their next version. I posted a message like yours over a week ago, and only got one email from an Adobe staff person, asking me to answer a couple of clarifying questions, but he never followed up on my response, so my problem is still unresolved. If you are luckier and are given a solution please let me know what it is -- it might work for me too, and I'd be very grateful! My email: [email protected]
Good luck.
Have you checked whether you have folder for PSE Organizer? It is normally at this location in Windows 7 and Windows 8/8.1:
<C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 12 Organizer>
If the folder is there then try double-clicking on the file called: PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe
If the folder isn't there at all then you need to re-install the package again using your original disks or from download from Adobe website. <Download Photoshop Elements products | 13, 12, 11, 10>
Hope this helps.

Help! My PSE8 Editor will not work!

When I try to open it, the editor will not load and I get an error message when I attempt to open a previously saved document I did in photoshop. the message says that the editor will not work. I already tried the ctrl+alt+shift keys at startup.

I am having the same issue. In my case the software was inside the new computer that i've purchased.It is a vaio with windows 7, 64bit.The organizer runs normally from the first time.When I tried to open the editor, appeared the license agreement on which you have to accept in order to continue. I clicked accept but absolutely nothing happened.Then I had to start task manager and close the program because it didn't respond.
I also tried to restart my pc and re-do the whole process, but again nothing changes.Any ideas?

the best way would be to copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music or media folder) from <MacintoshHD>/users/<yourname>/music on your Mac to the external, then launch iTunes while holding the option (⌥) key, click on choose library when prompted, and select the iTunes folder on the external.
I have pointed itunes towards external but still not working,driving me nuts!
that tells iTunes where to put new additions to your library, not where the content currently is.

Audigy Platinum eX External Bay is not work

So I posted a few days ago with this same problem. My external bay is not working, and not even getting power. I uninstalled my Audigy, removed the card and put it in a different PCI slot. Then I reinstalled it. I also unplugged all cables and then put them back in to make sure they are well attached. Still I have problems, and the external bay is useless and unpowered. Anyone have any ideas?

LoopyG,
If you have done all of these steps and you are still not getting any power from the dri've bay then you will probably want to contact Technical Support to arrange repairs. Their contact page is: http://us.creative.com/support/custsup.
