Photo shopping images... Can it be done??

Hi
I'm creating a 'target' doc. Basically, as we raise money I want to colour in the image to reflect how much cash we have. I don't have photo shop but surely there's something on Apple that can do it...? Have tried all sorts and am not having any luck! Please bear in mind when answering that I'm a novice!!

Hi Trueginger70
Welcome to the forum. You could try Pixelmator which is a handsome program offering much of what Photoshop has at a fraction of the price:

You can also do something using a shape as a mask:
+Toolbar > Shapes > Choose+
You can play with the color/stroke/fill/gradient/transparency in:
+Inspector > Graphic > Fill/Stroke/Tint/Shadow/Transparency+
You can also drag an image into the shape and by clicking on the Edit button then drag the image up or down to progressively fill the shape.
By overlaying the image with a transparent gradient you can also slide up or down color to give the appearance of progressively coloring the image.
Another method is to have a white .pdf file with a shape hole in it to cover over another image and do similar tricks to the above.
Let your imagination loose.

I just updated Photo Shop but can't access it.

When I click on Photo Shop it takes me to the page for downloading Photo Shop. But it's already on my computer if I updated it right?

Hello Dan,
Are you trying to access Photoshop CC? I checked your account as I did see that you have an expired subscription. If you are trying to access Photoshop CC. I would suggest to start a new subscription here.

Icloud photos: changing order of photos inside stream, can it be done

Is it possible to change the order of the photos posted inside a particular icloud stream?
Have tried selecting and dragging photos to desired place in stream sequence without success.
Help appreciated.

Is it possible to change the order of the photos posted inside a particular icloud stream?
As the name suggests - a Shared Photo Stream is a stream of photos to be shared (up to 5000 photos). The streams are ordered by the time you add the photo. It is not a shared album, that can be dynamically updated and rearranged. As you add new photos to the stream, you may need to delete older photos, to make room for the newer photos.

How can I reinstall photo shop in my new computer?

I installed photo shop 5 in my new computer, the photo shop 7 up-grade is looking for a previuos version of photo shop, but can not find it. I had this configuration on my old computer which broke down.

You should not need to install 5, you should only need the serial number from it so that your installation of 7 as an upgrade can be confirmed.

Photo shop and frame by frame touch up

Hi Group:
I am using FCP and would like to touch about about 5 seconds of video using photo shop. Can anyone outline the steps.
I have done the following>
Open Photo shop.
Click import (Frame by frame)
Select the video from the browser
picked a frame and made changes
this is where I get stuck ...........how do I save it so that the frame gets saved directly in the video. As opposed to a still frame that is kept separate from the video?
What is the most efficient way to do touch up in photo shop?
JIm

Once you import a frame of video into Photoshop, it is no longer video, but a still image. The method I'm familiar with is to set an IN and OUT point in FCP's Timeline for the portion of the clip that you need to touch up. Next, export that section as an Image Sequence. Specify the file type and other options (use a non-compressed format for best results - not jpg), then export to the location you specify. Open the images in Photoshop and do the touch up work. If there isn't much movement from image to image, you may be able to record actions to automate some of the work.
When you're done in Photoshop, launch FCP and set the Still Image Duration in FCP's preferences to 1 frame. Import the folder containing the image sequence. Place the Timeline playhead where the images need to start. Set the Target track and drag the entire folder to the Timeline.

Drag and drop to photo shop no longer works after installing Apple "Photos"; It was working fine before the latest Apple update (10.10.3) . what can be done?

Nothing. It's nothing to do with PSE; this is a limitation of Photos, as is the loss of being able to use an external editor without exporting copies of your images.

I need to register my PS and I have the numbers but it wont let me register online, only on the phone. So I called the number and it I have to take a surve for a freaking trip that I DON"T want. If I don't regiester my photo shop it will not stay up. How

I called the number to register my photo shop but I have answer some questions for a freaking trip that I don't want supposed to be "FREE" and I asked to be redirected but the people wont do it. They hung up on me twice. Can someone PLEASE help me register my Photo shop? It will not stay open if it is not registered.

This whole deal reeks. I do not know where you got your product from, but that's not how Adobe Photoshop works.
Go here first: Contact Customer Care
That is the official contact.
Contact Customer Care by chat or Phone.
If the website you went on is not www.adobe.com, close the browser.
If the number is for a "survey" to "win a trip", hang up. It's a scam to get your credit card in order to "secure" the trip.

Can't delete photos using Image Capture

I just upgraded from an iPhone4 to 5s....all of a sudden I can't delete photos using Image Capture like I used to. The "delete" menu item is grayed out. The "delete after import" checkbox in the lower right is available, but I don't need to download all of these photos videos. I poked around in the iPhone settings but didn't see anything which seems to control this.

Hey guys, I had the same problem on iOS 8.0.2, I couldn't delete any pictures from my Mac neither in Image Capture nor in iPhoto. I've just figured out how to resolve this. You have to disable iCloud Photo Library (Beta) under Settings > Photos & Camera. Since it seems to be an iOS 8 related issue, I'm not sure if I am referring to the same problem as in the original post but I thought I'll let you know anyway.

Can newer versions of Adobe Photo Shop convert a scanned in raster pdf to a vector pdf?

Can newer versions of Adobe Photo Shop convert a scanned in raster pdf to a vector pdf?
I scanned in a paper electrical schematic to Adobe Photo Shop and want to revise it in AutoCAD but to use an AutoCAD plug in, PDFIn, it must be a vector pdf as opposed to a raster pdf.
Is that possible?

Not in Photoshop, but you can try Live Trace in Illustrator.
You may have to try several different settings and compare the results. Also the cleaner the scan the better.
The results may vary from great to really bad.
Sometimes it is better and faster to simply recreate it Illustrator. You can use the scanned image as a partially dimmed template layer and redraw over it on new layers.
If you really need this to work in AutoCAD, try creating a small section as a test to see if the plug-in for AutoCAD that you mentioned works ok.

I edited photos in photo shop that I took off of my camera and then whenI was done I saved them in a folder in my documents as a JPEG. Now when I try to open them there is an encrytion error me assage.

The folks here would need far more information from you before they provide help.
You know the drill: Exact OS...PS version...etc. The more you provide, the better.
What is the exact message that is displayed?
What have you tried so far?
Do the files display on your browser? In Bridge?
What are you doing when it happens?
Are the files still on your cameras card? If so and,you copy one to your desktop and save it without changes, does it reload properly?
Don't worry about providing too much information. Every little bit helps.

How can I send multiple pictures to the Kodak link (under file & then order prints)? if the photos are not sequential can it be done?

Does the order matter here?Because the photos will be sent for printing. If there is any other reason, can you please cite example.

The iPhoto library should be in your user folder/Pictures unless it was moved.

Hi,
You can visit Common catalog upgrade issues | Organizer | Elements 6 or later and see if it works.
You can also visit Converting a catalog from previous versions | Learn Photoshop Elements 11 | Adobe TV for visual help.

Make the iTunes window wider.

Hi I have the old photo shop elements 10 on my computer and want to update and was wondering what the differences between photoshop, lightroom and photoshop elements are?
Also when I upgrade does it have to be with a monthly membership or can I just purchase the product out right like you use to be able?

You cannot "update" from what you have to any of the applications you mention. It will have to be a straight purchase or subscription at full price.
Photoshop is a professional level application that makes no apologies for its very long and steep learning curve.
Lightroom is all about volume, and very light editing.
