Photos not sharp in photoshop express

When I view photos on my Adnoir device using the built in gallery app the photos are very clear and sharp. When I view them in Phtoshop Express however, they are much softer, almost blurry. Why is this?

Thanks for posting your observations here. You are correct, images viewed in Photoshop Express on Android devices can appear less sharp than when viewed in Gallery. There are reasons for this: performance and available memory. In order to display the image quicker, we are displaying a lower resolution version of the image. This does not effect the actual image though, so if you export the image it will maintain the expected resolution.
We hope to make improvements in this area and are investigating how to optimize this for our next update.

Raw pictures not sharp in photoshop

when I open a raw file in other programs like "ACDSee" it is sharp. when I open the same picture in photoshop it is not sharp.

Indoor photos not sharp

When taking indoor photos(i.e.: wedding reception) with EOS50D& EFS 17-55mm f2.8 zoom lens,in manual or automatic mode, the shots are not clear,not sharp and a little too dark. ISO1600,1/125th shutter and f4.5,auto focus. Can anyone help me? It would seem for a camera of this caliber, shooting in "auto" would be a breeze!!! Exposure level indicator smack in the middle. Thank you.
Solved!

If you are relying on AUTO to get it right I strongly suspect you don't know what you're doing. Low light & possible subject movement requires a proper understanding of photography & the rules relating to getting a great photo. Auto doesn't do that.
This is harsh. Did you read the OP's post? She/He said he tried it in manual too. The comment about Auto was to suggest that a fully automatic mode is generally reliable for well adjusted images. I see no reason to suggest that he lacks a "proper understanding of photography.." and the rest of the dressing down you offer.

Does photo not integrate with photoshop?

I've been using Macs and iPhoto since the start. I typically do edits in Photoshop, eschewing the simplistic edit tools aimed at consumers by using photoshop. Now with this "upgrade" it will not let me pick a preferred graphics editing software. In order to edit I've got to drag an image to the desktop, then reopen it in photoshop, edit it, then reimport it back to photos. Took what used to be a one click operation and turned it into something from a pre 2000 era version of windows. What gives? Do they not imagine that there are some people who prefer photoshop to the consumer editing the app provides? It would have been no skin off anyone's nose to allow this to be done as it was in the previous version. Also, why no control click for a contextual edit menu? iPhoto has been dumbed down it seems.

I'm in the same boat here. I used to import pictures from my camera's to iPhoto, organise them and drag and drop to Photoshop. This workflow, which is rather logic I think, is no longer possible. So now I have to export it first, choose a folder, go to Photoshop and choose the image to be able to edit it. I like the new Photos app a lot, but not being able to simply drag and drop images from the app to an external application (due to an api change), renders it useless to me. And I am absolutely sure I'm not the only one! It seems we're going backwards in time and if this is the roadmap for everything in OSX, eventually something like Ubuntu might become a better option. So I sincerely hope that's not the case.

Why will Lightroom photos not launch into Photoshop CC?

I just started Creative Cloud Lightroom and PhotoshopCC. When I try to move Lightroom 5 photos into Photoshop I get a message that says "The file could not be edited because Photoshop CC 2014 could not be launched." Even though I go to "photo" header in Lightroom and scroll to "edit in Photoshop CC 2014" it launches into my old Photoshop 4; I deleted Photoshop 4 but photos still won't go to Photoshop CC 2014. Frustrating. Would appreciate some suggestions. Thanks.

I suspect the problem is with Photoshop, not Lightroom. Uninstalling older versions of Photoshop after installing a newer one is known to potentially cause a lot of grief in some cases.
What happens is that the old version takes a lot of registry settings with it on the way out - leaving behind empty pointers to itself rather than the newer versions which it is not aware of. Lost file associations is a classic.
Sometimes these pointers can be re-established easily, but in other cases a full uninstall/reinstall is needed, perhaps with a run of the CC cleaner tool tossed in to clean the slate. Or, if you have the stomach for it - manually editing the registry. But then you should know your way around and backup as you go.
With Photoshop, the safe procedure is to always uninstall in strict reverse version order, then reinstall the newer version.

Leopard Preview Photos not sharp at screen size

I notice that when you double click a photo in Leopard, the image in Preview is not always sharp. If you expand the image to 100%, then it is sharp.
It was never like this in Tiger.
The image is not being re-sampled correctly to fit the screen.
If you open the same image in IPhoto, then it is sharp at screen size.

Photo not loading in Photoshop 2014

I updated to the latest Lightroom (5.6) and Photoshop 2014 today. Now, when I am in Lightroom and select edit in Photoshop 2014, Photoshop launches, but no photo to edit. If I select to edit as a smart object, it works. Any ideas as to what is causing the problem? Thanks - T.J.

looks like there is a manual fix here

Still photos not sharp

Does anybody know why my still images aren't as sharp when I pull them from my media pane to the clip viewer? The quality is excellent in the media pane but they become softened in the finished movie.

Problem with Photoshop Express IOS 8.02 - I recently installed IOS 8.02 on my iPad Air and Photoshop Express cannot access my full library of images. Also, when opening the app, I'm not given the option of selecting "Open from Adobe Revel", "Take a Picture" or "Open from Camera Roll".......I am taken directly to a small selection of images. The only images that show up are the saved photos previously adjusted through Photoshop Express. I also updated my iPhone 5s with IOS 8.02 and Photoshop Express works perfectly on the iPhone with all images in my library visible.
What could be the problem?

Yes, the Old Master file has a folder for each year where I find all photos from that specific year. I am attaching a screen shot of the file.
In the meantime i have managed to download all photos (it did not download any video files though in mpg, avi, 3gp, m4v,mp4 and mov format) to a new iphoto library. Unfortunately the photos are quite mixed and often doubled up. I ma considering to purchase iphoto library which checks all duplicates in iphoto. this will save me a lot of time. What do you think?

Why are my photos not as sharp and clear in online album

I've been struggling thru this make-an-album thing and will not given up. I have continued to work thru this first album to be posted on line. I'm almost there. I've sorted thru the templates and only found one that shows my photos large enough to see and appreciate but they seem to be degraded - not sharp and clear. And that template cuts off my captions to the photos. I just want a slideshow, full screen, full resolution and with all my captions. I thought that was what Photoshop Elements 8 and my Adobe acct allowed me to do.
I take a lot of pixs with a Pentax K20D at 14.5M. I have not been able to share any of my photos, as taken, thru my email because they are too big. Now it looks like PS8/Adobe dumbs they down.
I'm new to this....so what am I missing????

Get SmugMug photo sharing. For a few dollars a year your photos will look fantastic. It is much better value and has unlimited storage unlike Photoshop.com and the full screen slideshow with captions look even more impressive on widescreen monitors.
What's more, you can upload photos to your SmugMug albums directly from the PSE Organizer.

When trying to import photos with iPhoto from photoshop.. won't let me keeps saying that the photos are already in the iPhoto library but they are not... need to fix this

When trying to import photos with iPhoto from photoshop... won't let me keeps saying that the photos are already in the iPhoto library but they are not

If you are using Photoshop from within iPhoto the following may help with the workflow. However, we do need to know the answers to the questions posed by Terence and Larry to be able to help you.
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..
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:
Screenshots are from PSE 10
Note 1: 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.
Note 2: editing a RAW file with either PSE or PS creates a new file which must be saved outside of iPhoto, i.e. the Desktop, and imported as a new photo into the iPhoto Library.

Photo's in iPhoto are not sharp in the edit mode

Several reports with no solution - Most people do not see this - report to Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feeback
Reports are that a tiny zoom will clear the image up

Images in Photoshop Express 10 albums not showing in iTunes

iTunes and Photoshop Express 10 (PSE10) can collaborate to maintain a catalog of images contained in photo albums on the iPhone and in PSE10. This option is set in the iPhone window in iTunes under "Photos." The user is asked to check which albums should be copied to the iPhone being synced. I used this feature for several years with different versions of iTunes and PSE.
I recently re-installed my OS (Win 7 64-bit) and all my applications, including PSE 10 and iTunes. My PSE10 photo catalog was restored from a backup, and preserved my albums. There are 11 albums, each with 10-30 photos. When viewed in iTunes, the albums show the number of images associated with each of them. iTunes reports only a few of the images in each album, with none in most. I've even tried to re-create the albums in PSE10 by deleting all the images and then re-insering them into the albums, with no change. How do I get iTunes to "see" the photos in my PSE10 albums? I've tried asking this question in the Adobe Forums--they sent me here.I'm using the most recent, fully updated versions os PSE10 and iTunes.

SSharpPhotography I would recommend posting your inquiry to the Photoshop Elements forum.

I burned my first iDVD andpicture quality is not good. Originals are excellent. My photos are shot in raw or jpeg, both are not sharp when I view my DVD. I viewed it on my 1080 dpi tv and my new apple computer.

There are many ways to produce slide shows using iPhoto, iMovie or iDVD and some limit the number of photos you can use (iDVD has a 99 chapter (slide) limitation).
If what you want is what I want, namely to be able to use high resolution photos (even 300 dpi tiff files), to pan and zoom individual photos, use a variety of transitions, to add and edit music or commentary, place text exactly where you want it, and to end up with a DVD that looks good on both your Mac and a TV - in other words end up with and end result that does not look like an old fashioned slide show from a projector - you may be interested in how I do it. You don't have to do it my way, but the following may be food for thought!
Firstly you need proper software to assemble the photos, decide on the duration of each, the transitions you want to use, and how to pan and zoom individual photos where required, and add proper titles. For this I use Photo to Movie. You can read about what it can do on their website:
http://www.lqgraphics.com/software/phototomovie.php
(Other users here use the alternative FotoMagico: http://www.boinx.com/fotomagico/homevspro/ which you may prefer - I have no experience with it.)
Neither of these are freeware, but are worth the investment if you are going to do a lot of slide shows. Read about them in detail, then decide which one you feel is best suited to your needs.
Once you have timed and arranged and manipulated the photos to your liking in Photo to Movie, it exports the file to iMovie as a DV stream. You can add music in Photo to Movie, but I prefer doing this in iMovie where it is easier to edit. You can now further edit the slide show in iMovie just as you would a movie, including adding other video clips, then send it to iDVD 7, or Toast, for burning.
You will be pleasantly surprised at how professional the results can be!
To simply create a slide show in iDVD 7 onwards from images in iPhoto or stored in other places on your hard disk or a connected server, look here:
