Photomerge problem in CS3

I am trying to stitch together a fairly low contrast 3D rendering made that was divided into 4 sections. I have tired photomerge in CS3 all afternoon - with no real success (though it works with other files). Generally three of the 4 section blend well, with one that doesnt remaining separate from the others; or coming up with different lighter shading than the rest of the sections. Any suggestions to get it to work?
Also, I dont know much about the layer styles that result. How can I delete them to work on the remaining section?

I think I found the best solution for this file (other than going over the seams with a partially transparent rubber stamp). I unchecked blend images together box in the interactive layout, and then blended each of the 4 sections two at a time (the top two, them merged them and auto blended the bottom right quarter, then did the same to the last left hand corner bit. I had to undo, then I repositioned the sections a couple times (after one section turned a lighter shade; or had a white line between it and the section it was meant to join) ...and then I retried the auto blend. It finally worked.

Epson Printing Problem with CS3

My Epson Stylus Pro 9600 has a problem with CS3 printing. When printing large images (i.e. 36x60) a portion of the image would be missing at the bottom (blank) The 10.01 update addressed this issue but it seems not completely. The problem was attributed to using a "Custom" print resolution however I still have this problem and after much testing I have narrowed it down to the "Finest Detail" check box under the custom, advanced tab. Checking this "Finest Detail" check box reproduces the problem.
I'm not sure where the problem lies whether it be Photoshops new stripped down print code or Epsons drivers. For the mean time I will keep this feature de-selected. Hope this helps other frustrated Epson Owners.
Vista 32, dual quad xeon 2.33
Photoshop CS 3.3 Extended (Masters Collection)
Epson Stylus Pro 9600, Drivers ver 5.52, current printer bios

Adobe blamed Epson drivers for not anticipating CS3's changes. Like they're clairvoyant or something. Their reason was that it was too hard to take into account every printer on the market when writing the new (unasked for) CS3 printing module. A feeble excuse when it comes to Epson pro machinery, though - it is the industry standard, after all.
Solution? - use CS2 for printing, authored back when Adobe wrote its software to be compatible with existing equipment and drivers, not expecting the world to fall into line with whatever it decided it would do. CS2 works flawlessly with my 7800, CS3 remains a basket case for the same reasons you mention, though checking/unchecking the fine detail box makes no difference. CS3 is erratic - sometimes it works as directed, but then out of nowhere it will suddenly decide to attenuate a pano print.
We'll see if they get it right with CS4's "improved" printing, but don't hold your breath.

Has anyone had a problem with CS3 crashing after downloading OS 10.8.1 on a imac?

Has anyone had a problem with CS3 crashing after downloading OS 10.8.1 on a imac?

Peggy
You are probably correct. I tried all different variations to test it. As long as I quit each document separately, i.e., red dot it, I seem to bring up only one document after that whether I click on the document itself or open it within pages. The same is true with numbers.
Two more questions:
1) can you turn off the "resume" feature? If so, how? I could not find a way to do it.
2) why the "save a version" feature in pages? What happened to the old "save" and "save as" features?
Thanks so much, you saved me a lot of frustration but I am still going to install MS Office for Mac.

Problem installing CS3, being asked for CS4 disc

Hi,
I'm having problem reinstalling CS3, during the installation I'm being asked to insert CS4 disc. All I want is to reinstall CS3.
Also, the liks to download CS3 products don't work.
Anybody can help me with this? Thanks!

Karniak which operating system are you using? I would recommend removing any current installations for Adobe Creative products on your computer. Once removed please use the CC Cleaner tool to insure complete removal. You can find more information on the use of the CC Cleaner tool at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.
Once you have used the CC Cleaner Tool please reinstall CS3. If you need a fresh copy of the installation files then you can download them from http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs3-product-downloads.html. Is this the same location you were attempting to download from previously?

Installation Problems - DW CS3

Hi all
I have tried to install DW Cs3 on my wintel box, I have
removed DW8 from the system, cleaned any registry entries and
common files in c:\ common files folder, deleted any refs to dw 8
from docs settings applications etc etc etc before attempting an
install, it can install all the adobe crap i don't want to have on
my system, but can't choose not to install, but no dw components
install, i have tried this reinstall many times with no
firewall/virus checkers enabled every thing you could imagine I
have tried
Can someone point me in the right direction to get it
happening?
Cheers Ron

I've had my own problems with CS3, but nothing like this. Are
you
installing from the DVD media? Try removing everyting and
then download the
trial and install that (it will be void of all the other
stuff you don't
want anyway). The Trial is actually the same as what comes on
the DVD. You
still need to provide your CD-Key to make it a full version.

HT1338 We are currently running CS3 on Macs with OS 10.5.8 but need to upgrade the OS in order to prepare e-books. Will we have any problems with CS3 running on the later OS?

Photomerge CS5 vs CS3

I upgraded to CS5 a while ago but did not have an opportunity to work with CS5's photomerge. In CS3 I used either Automatic or Interactive. In CS5 both appear to be "broken". I tested this be using the same images I used to make the CS3 panos in CS5. This test used images from the NASA Apollo archive (
http://www.apolloarchive.com/apollo_gallery.html ) where I had copied some Apollo 17 images to merge into a pano. Automatic split them and gave me two rows of images.Used the same images for the CS5 Reposition and Reposition moved the images around and I could not modify their locations. I tried it again and then the images moved down on one end. Images attached below.
Is it possible to get the routines back from CS3? I found the interactive one the most useful and the Automatic was much more robust.
CS3 Interactive Image
CS5 Automatic
CS5 Repositon

Okay, I managed to download a number of "pan" images from that site, though not the ones you used specifically.
One of the issues is that things are changing between frames, because the astronaut doing the shooting didn't rotate the camera around one spot perfectly, or because things like his own shadow moved between frames.
The above was on Automatic, and you can clearly see that it chose Cylindrical for the top set and Perspective for the bottom set.
I'm going to experiment some more. Maybe I can think of some ways, such as pre-processing the images through Camera Raw to normalize the exposures better or downsizing or something to help Photooshop better find the commonalities between the frames.

Probleme mit CS3 nach Windows updates

Hallo,
Mein CS3 war registriert und lief sauber. Nach dem in den letzten Tagen zig Updates von Widows kamen und installiert wurden, will CS3 eine neue Registrierung.
Aber wenn man online erneut registrieren klickt, passiert nichts.
Im meinem Account bin ich angemeldet.
Was tun, weiß jemand Rat?
Beerchen

Danke für die Antwort.
So ganz genau kann ich es nicht nachvollziehen. Aber nachdem ich das Programm
mit dem Task-Manager geschlossen habe, anders wollte es nicht.
Und das Programm neu geöffnet habe hat es wieder funktioniert. Möglicherweise
war mein PC ein wenig Durcheinander durch die 40 updates, obwohl ich mehrere
Neustarts gemacht hatte.
Vielen Dank für die Hilfe.
Ich hätte aber noch ein 2. Problem.
Mein Haupt-PC, ich habe 2, hat seinen Geist aufgegeben und ich würde gerne diese
verlohrene Lizenz für mein Laptop nehmen, habe aber keine Ahnung wie.
Wissen Sie wie ich die Lizenz deaktivieren kann und für mein Labtop aktivieren?
Danke und schöne Feiertage,
Dotthy

Problem with CS3 Photomerge and creating jpegs

Just created a panorama out of 4 jpegs (together about 33MB) and saved it as jpeg.
Now I want to create another panorama out of 10 jpegs (together about 73MB), it worked fine, but I can't save it in jpg format. CS3 only offers .psb, raw or tif. So whatswrong or did i miss something?
Otto

The original jpegs were all 8bit (created with LR from Canon raw). My resolution for the moment: saving within CS3 as tif, open the tif with my freeware viewer Faststone and saving it as a jpeg (size is 39033 x 2710 pixel). Even this, opening the tif and saving as jpeg is not possible within CS3. So what is the problem?

Mouse pointer Problem with CS3 and windows 7

Upgraded
to a new PC which has Windows 7(32bit) as an operating system. Installed my Photoshop CS3 and everything seems ok except when I magnify in the navagator panel. Once I zoom in my mouse pointer changes to 3 hands in the navigator panel. I powered up my old laptop which has Vista and my CS3
then matched up the mouse settings in the control panel on the new PC. Used the same usb mouse on both PC's, the older Vista laptop worked fine but the windows 7 PC would get a tripple pointer in the navigation panel when I magnified. In the windows 7 laptop I then set the compatibility for Photoshop CS3 to run in XP mode but the problem did not clear. I see in FAQ for CS4 people have complained about tripple cursers in windows 7 but the replies indicated that the recommended fix did not work. Any help apreciated.
Tom

Thanks for your solution. I by changing the setting to 125% I am now able to use CS3 without tripple pointers.
My eyesight is challenged so the decrease in text is a challenge but I can change the setting when I will use CS3 so I have a workarount.
Thanks,
Tom

Problems Installing CS3 Web Premium on Windows Vista x64

I was (key word) having problems with my installation of CS3 on my brand new (3 days old) computer with Windows Vista x64. Finally after two days of installing and uninstalling, I called Adobe support. I was pleasantly surprised with how quickly they solved my problem (if only I had called sooner).
Having worked on this for 2 days I have seen and tried everything except of course the cure. So I wanted to put this out there for any one else that is having problems.
The symptoms:
- Everything seemed to install correctly (except acrobat which is another story. you can find lots of post about that.). No errors during installation. And when it finally completed installing, all that was left was to click "finish" which indicated to me that installation was successful.
- Open Photoshop. PS would open and immediately stop working. Vista said it was not responding.
- Open any of the other programs and the little vista circle would spin for 5 to 10 seconds then nothing. Program did not start to open. Just nothing.
The problem: Unbeknown to me (never saw an error message) "Licensing for this product had stopped working". When I described above symptoms tech support went straight to this.
The solution: Download the Licensing Service Update and run it. http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb401528
Once I ran this, Photoshop opened and let me enter serial number and activate CS3.
If after your installation, Photoshop or any of the other programs seem to get stuck or you never get the dialog box to enter serial number, the Licensing Service Update should fix things for you.

wow...thank you so much for this posting. I just got home & followed your steps and now I have CS3 up & running. After 4 days of stressing out, finally someone was able to assist. Why can't the Adobe Experts & Employees on these forums supply this much needed information?????
I seriously understand why people want to get crack versions of this software rather than paying hundreds of dollars like us and avoid all this BS and get no support whatsoever!
Thank you again!!

Activation problems with CS3 and PS6

I own CS3 standard edition for Windows. Recently I upgraded Photoshop only to CS6.
All works well with PS/CS6. However, when I go back to use CS3 applications, the programs won't run. In Acrobat - the program I'm trying to run now - I get the error "Adobe Acrobat 8.1.3 cannot be launched..." and am told to open another CS3 program. I tried that, only to be told my CS3 is no longer registered.
I got out the CS3 disks, entered the serial number, and am now told I have too many activations. This makes no sense at all, as I just removed CS3 from my laptop.
Can someone tell me how I can run my CS3 programs with PS/CS6? I cannot afford to update the whole suite; that's just not an option.
Thanks,
Ed B

Hi Ed B,
First, if I understand your initial question, you have two fully purchased licensed Adobe products: CS3 Standard and PS6. Second, you had CS3 installed on your desktop and laptop…within Adobe is licensing agreement. Third, when you began to experiencing problems, you uninstalled CS3 from your laptop and proceeded to reregister CS3 on your desktop—I can help you with that.
If you did not “deactivate” CS3 on your laptop prior to its uninstallation, it’s still showing as one of your two permissible registrations. I ran into the same issue with CS5.5 after a rebuild. I had to call Adobe licensing division and tell them what I did; they corrected my error on their part and I was good to go. For future uninstalls:
fire up any CS3 app
click the Help button on the main menu
select “Deactivate”
then uninstall your product.
Now, as to PS3 and PS6 being on the same system…there’s no problem. Just make sure that PS6 has its own/correct license number. To check this is the same method as when you deactivate:
Open PS6
click Help button
select Activate and make sure the code displayed is correct, or put in the new product code.
After that, you should be good to go.
Hope this helps.

Brightness/Contrast Problem in CS3 & CS2

When I adjust (using legacy option) the sliders, then hit okay, the adjustments don't apply, and the image reverts to it's original state as if I hadn't adjusted the contrast or brightness at all. It did this in both CS3 & CS2. Has anyone else had this problem before?
My workaround was to make a B/C adjustment layer and then merge visible to a new layer, but it did the exact same thing. The new merged layer didn't have the B/C applied to it. This is very strange.

We should move on but calling someone rude because they misunderstood something and made a poor judgement is uncalled for.
Moving on I think that the advice to use curve instead of B?C would offer better control
As to why the adjustment layer you used did not have an effect as expected there may have been a small selection active when you invoked the layers adjustment everything seem to work but it is is only being applied to what might be a very small selection. Perhaps one you are accidentally creating. Check to see if you have a selection tool active and watch how you are moving the cursor.
I hold the stylus in a funny way and sometimes make a selection and swear i am not touching the tablet with the stylus but on more careful observation or by just hitting escape or command D and then making the adjustment all is well.
This might not be your problem but it is the only one I can think of at the moment.
if this is the problem keep in mind this is not really a photoshop problem or solution and an unlikely scenario, even though it is a possible one.
No one here would be expected to know this and of course it can be quite off base.

Flash image viewer, picture scale problem in CS3

Please someone help me. I have built a website 3 years ago, and I still have this problem. In CS3 I added a flash image viewer (slideshow.swf) as a slideshow to show gardens we have made. When you first visit the site and look at the pictures (wich are bigger than the viewer window because of picture quality issues) they don`t shrink to fit into the viewer window, you only end up seeing a fraction of them. But when they download and you go back to see them again a second later, they become the right size. It also swiches to the right size when the loop play gets back to the first pic again.
In the flash element properties I tried the different scale settings, and looked at other settings too but I couldn`t make it work.
I think making the viewer window as large as the pictures, would look odd. Maybe buying on other slideshow program to insert into dreamweaver would work.
If you would like to see the site its: tsugagardens.com , than look in the photo gallery and after the pics download go back with the back button and see the difference in the pics.
Thank you for your efforts,
Tibor
