Opening from LR4 into Photoshop

Is anyone else suddenly having issues with opening an adjusted image from LR4 into Photoshop, and the adjustments not showing up? Never had this problem, even in beta versions. I have checked "open in Photoshop with LR adjustments. Been using Lightroom since the original beta.

I believe there is a problem until a Photoshop update occurs. I make changes in LR
command E" to import to Photoshop when the dialogue box appears with this option "Render Using Lightrom" I choose it. It brings LR edited Photos inot PS with your changes.
Hope this works and I got it right, works for me.

Raw files do not open from Lightroom into Photoshop 2014

I developed files in LR and trying to open them into PS 2014 CC, it launches the program but do not open. Any idea what to do?

Hi,
This is a bug resulting from an uninstall of the previous Ps CC version (14.x). We are working on a fix for this currently.
If you would like to resolve this before we can post the fix, you need to uninstall Ps CC 2014 (15.0) [you don't have to remove preferences when asked], and then reinstall.
Sorry for the hassle.

Why wont my psd files open from Bridge into Photoshop

When I try to double click on a psd file is Bridge, it opens in some other image viewer... not Photoshop. Under File>Open With, there are a number of
possibilities, but none of them are PS. There's Fire Fox, and Microsoft Mail and Painter X but not Photoshop. I can open Raw files but not Psd's or
jepgs... What could possibly be wrong. I cannot find a preferance I've marked incorrectly.

First, I have never made any changes to this area in Preferences. When I saw the suggestion to check file associations in Bridge Pref., I looked through the file asssociations and mostly I found listed 'none beside most types,' but beside Psd, Tiff, and Jpegs it said, "Explorer Settings." Why in the heck would that be there? I clicked on that and noticed I could direct a search through my computer for something else, so I when straight for Adobe and on to Photoshop Cs5, and clicked OK. After that, I could open the psd's in Photoshop and under File>Open With, PScs5 was listed now as the defautl... YEA!... But when I tried the same with jpegs, it didn't work. I put in PHcs5, but they are opening in Camera Raw. Now while I could want that option, I don't want that as a default. I'm totally perplexed as to how this could be happening. I've been using Bridge since it was first introduced into PS, and I've never had a problem like this. I hope someone who is more educated in this area will please shed some light on this for me.
I'm in an advanced Digital Imaging class, and I asked my all knowing teacher and she was confused as well.
Thanks. 7SUS

Open Photoshop image from PDF into Photoshop and change cmyk text to 100% black

when I have a supplied PDF file that has cmyk text, I open the image in Photoshop but I don't know how to change the cmyk text (some very small and some large) to 100% Black. I used to know the short cut key to do this but I can't remember. I used to use the marque tool then use a short cut key that would knock the cmy out of the k. Can some one please tell me how I can achieve this in a flattened photoshop file opened from PDF into Photoshop. Thanks

One way to do this:
Use a hue/saturation adjustment layer, click the Colorize box and drag the Lightness slider to -100. The black will go to C:0, M:0 Y:0, K:100. I'm not aware of a shortcut for this, perhaps someone more informed could help there. You would only want to apply it to the text, clipped to a separate text layer ideally, but if your file is already flattened you could apply it via a selection/masking.

Opening photo from bridge into photoshop converts to smart object

Instead of opening the psd-file normally from bridge into photoshop the file converts to smart object.
I used to work with CS3 where double-clicking in Bridge on a psd-file would open it in Photoshop. Now, when I double click in Bridge (CS6) it opens a "quick time pro" file, which I definitely don't want. When I use the right mouse to "place in Photoshop" it does so, but then automatically converts the file into a smart object, which I don't want either. What need I do to open a psd-file in Bridge as normal psd-file in Photoshop?
Thanks in advance for help.

Hi C. Pfaffenbichler
yes, there is a "Photoshop Document" in the list, but it has not
association. when I click on the little arrow on that line it "searches"
and shows all the files in the "program X86" on the C-drive. but I don't
know what to associate it with, or said differently, I don't know what file
in "programX86" to associate it with.

How can I pull photos from iphoto into Photoshop to edit them?

Uploaded some photos on my new Apple Mini (I'm converting from Windows to Mac) and they uploaded fine - but then I couldn't see how to get them from iphoto into Photoshop to edit them. Surely they must automatically save but if so, where??

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.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
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 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.

Is it possible to preserve the layer name when I copy and paste from Illustrator into Photoshop?

Is it possible to preserve the layer name when I copy and paste from Illustrator into Photoshop?
At the moment it just appears as "Vector Smart Object" in Photoshop and I have to take another step and change the layer name.
Thank you!

Not that I know. PS doesn't care for these kinds of things and uses its own naming system.

Importing selected files from Bridge into Photoshop stack?

Hi Guys,
Is it possible to run the "Load files into Stack" script from Bridge having selected your files in Bridge itself. There are work arounds but if this script can be run in this way it would save me alot of time.
Not sure if the script can be dropped into the a Bridge sub folder or whether or not Bridge can read jsx files? I do seem possible in the fact that some Photoshop scripts can be ran from Bridge but to my knowledge these are not jsx files.
Basically I just need that to run exactly the same way but be launched from Bridge into Photoshop with those selected files
Any help would be very appreciated.
Many thanks.

I am not exactly sure what you are asking, but I know you can create stacks in Bridge by simply selecting the desired files and pressing ctrl G on the PC (command G on MAC?) I believe there is a forum dedicated to Bridge scripting. You might have better luck there.

Importing from Illustrator into Photoshop

Hello
I am struggling to learn Creative Suite CS4, and it is very hard.
Can anyone help me with the following problem.
I have made some line art in Illustrator CS4 using a wacom pen and the pencil tool. it has about 8 layers.
I have brought the artwork into Photoshop CS4 so that I can color it in Photoshop. I find that it has been merged into just one layer in Photoshop.
Is this what is supposed to happen? I expected the drawing to still have all the layers intact.
can anyone tell me how to move stuff from Illustrator into Photoshop and keep the layers structure?
Thanks for any advice.

How did you bring the art into Photoshop?
Try File > Export > PSD in Illustrator and tick the "Write Layers" option in teh second dialog window.
Be aware though... you can't maintain layers and have traditional smart objects at the same time.
If you want smart objects and layers, you need to select an AI layer, copy. Move to PS, create a new layer, paste. Then repeat for each AI layer. And finally realign all the layers in PS so they are positioned correctly.

Jpg won't open from Explorer in Photoshop

So odd...
After I deleted CS4, I can't seem to open a jpg image from Windows Explorer in Photoshop! Even if I do a "Open With", Photoshop is not an option, and even if I browse to the correct Photoshop exe (CS5 64), it will not open in Photoshop. However, .psd files will open directly into Photoshop!
Should I re-install Photoshop (ouch) or is there an easy registry hack??
thanks

You "un-associated" things when removing CS4. Since the installers don't know about each other, this happens with "ambiguous" file types that in theory could belong to different programs. PSD is unique, so it sticks. I see no problem in running the CS5 instalelr again, though. Unlike in the past, this is really a safe operation and pretty quick. Should not take more than 10 minutes for PS alone, but may of course take longer with a suite install.

Photoshop CS5 - drag images from web into photoshop issue

Has anyone had this happen or know a solution? Photoshop CS5 at work does this, but the one I bought for home doesn't... weird
When I drag an image from the web directly into Photoshop, the program almost freezes, I can select tools, but cant use them, I can get the handles to display with Free Transform, but then cant scale it. I have to actually close the file, then re-open it to continue working.

The exact same thing happens with my photoshop CS5! very irritating! My boyfriends photoshop CS5 works fine and does not have this problem either! HELP!

From Scanner into Photoshop into iPhoto problem

I have scanned an old picture using my Epson scanner into Photoshop for enhancement, but I can't figure out how to import it into my iPhoto library.
I have tried the "add to library" in iPhoto, but no luck. What I'm I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Lolo

Hi Lolo,
Save the image from Photoshop to the desktop. Open iPhoto and drag the image into the open iPhoto viewing Window. You cannot save an image into the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder. If you did, drag it out of the folder and use iPhoto to import the image or drag the image into an open iPhoto viewing window. More info for you:
--First thing to know and remember is this...Do not drag any images, folder of images into the iPhoto Library in the Finder. Images have to be imported into iPhoto within the application. Do not scan images and save them into the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder. Save them to another location such as the Pictures folder or even the desktop. You can then import them into iPhoto.
--All images that you import are sown in the library view. You can choose how you want to view, by rolls, by date, by rating, etc. When you put images in an Album, slideshow, book, etc, you are actually just putting pointers to those images in the library. You are not adding more images. If you delete an image from the Album it will still be in the library. If you delete an image from the library it is deleted from iPhoto's database and your hard drive (unless you have it backed up somewhere else)
--You have a folder of images on your hard drive and want to import them into iPhoto. Drag the folder of images into an open iPhoto Library window and the folder of photos will be copied into the library, resulting in a new roll with the name of the folder. You now have two copies of those photos, the ones in iPhoto's database and the ones on your desktop. You can keep the ones on your desktop that you just imported as backup or you can delete that folder.
-- you scan a picture/pictures and save it in a folder. You cannot scan directly into iPhoto or the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder.
You want all your photos in iPhoto so you import them into iPhoto.
Now you have two copies of that picture/pictures, so you can delete the originals that were in the scanned folder and keep the one/ones that were imported into iPhoto.
-- You download pictures from your camera into iPhoto.
There is now one copy of each of the pictures.
You want to change something about a picture you imported, such as
cropping it or changing the size, or changing the orientation.
Once you do that to a picture, you now have two copies of the picture
in iPhoto, the original and the edited one. The edited one will be in the library organize view. The original is packed away in an Original folder in your iPhoto Library folder under the date of the roll. You can always revert to the original by control clicking on the photo and choose "revert to orginal" You will not have this choice if you used iPhoto Diet to get rid of the Originals.
(a quick note on cropping within iPhoto...when you are in edit mode, you automatically will be in the crop mode with cross hairs to highlight the crop area. To finish cropping you must click the crop button and then go back to library view and your cropped picture will be there.
3.You want to use Photoshop or another graphic program to edit a picture in your iPhoto library.
You can open up prefs for iPhoto and choose "when double clicking on
photo ..do" choose "other" and select Photoshop. Now you can edit all
pictures in your iPhoto library in PhotoShop by double clicking. If you save the photo with the same name and as a flattened file it will be saved right into iPhoto and you will see the changes. If you don't want to save it into iPhoto then do a "save as" and save to the desktop. You will then have the original photo still in iPhoto and your new edited photo on the desktop.
Or, with iPhoto open, you can drag a picture from the library window
to your desktop (you see a + sign on the pic you are dragging). You now
have two of the same picture, one in the iPhoto library and one on your desktop. You can open up the one on your desktop in any graphic program and work on it. The one in iPhoto stays the same. You can also share/export the picture/pictures to your desktop or folder to work on them or do batch processing, etc. You will still have the originals in your iPhoto Library.
Or, you can open up the ~/Pictures/iPhoto Library/folders and option drag any
picture out of the folder to your desktop. Notice that you will see a plus sign while dragging the photo. This is copying the file to your desktop
I would advise anyone not to do this as they might forget to use the option key and drag the photo out. Next time you open iPhoto the photo will be missing.
Two Apple kbs for you to read
Don't tamper with files in the iPhoto library folder
About the iPhoto Library folder
Don't forget that in Library view you can Control click on any picture and get a contextual menu with many options. One is to revert to original.
