Photoshop CS4 Extended - cannot paint on .kmz files in 3D

Hello, ist there anybody who can help me with a special problem ? I try to generate my own 3 D Object in Sketchup but in Photoshop CS4 Extended ein cannot paint on this, even i can with 3D objects out of the Photoshop Library.
Thanks a lot,

Hi,
Sorry for the delay on the attachment. It looks like it cleared 'customs' and is no longer in the queue.
I used SketchUp 7 (7.0.10248) (not Pro), so you may want to update, but I did find some useful things.
This was just using a rectangle pulled up into a cubic geometry. If you use a solid color for each face, the export creates a unique map for each face. If you leave the geometry face styles undefined, the export will create UV mapping that overlaps. And if you use the tiling textures, you get really tiny targets which you can't paint at all (like what you saw).
To see the UV mapping in Ps, open a diffuse map and then go to 3D> Create UV Overlay> Wireframe. This will create a new layer and draw in the UV triangle mapping. For painting you want to see non-overlapping triangles, that are fairly equal in area, and openness (think triangulated squares). Tight angles, and small area makes for hard targets to project in clean pixels.
Hopefully this makes sense and helps.
regards,
steve

    Everytime i open a CS3 psd file in Photoshop CS4 extended 64bit the application crash after few minutes or seconds... this is very very very frustrating...

    In PHOTOSHOP CS4 extended 64bit i think the problem is opening CS3 files containing text layer ...

    - a file with a simply text layer and masked image > CRASH
    - a file with masked image > apparently OK
    all file are 640x480 72dpi RGB

  • Photoshop CS4 Extended Win XP x64 Help files (Documentation) Prob

    Hi
    I have just updated to CS4 extended.
    Help>Photoshop Help [F1]
    Launches the default browser taking me to
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Photoshop/11.0/search.html?AH_ION=true

    Why no application documentation?
    How can I install it?
    Thanks in advance

    Sorry I was obviously not clear-- I found the connections tab but it has no option to keep offline.
    There are two options > Kuler
                                    >  Connections
    The latter opens a connections tab which enables one to enter an email address and password.
    When login is activated  F1 takes me to :
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Photoshop/11.0/search.html?AH_ION=true
    which is a page with a single link:
    http://community.adobe.com/help
    which when clicked upon takes me to:
    http://community.adobe.com/help/?l=acrobat_product_adobelr
    It does not appear to take me to the page you guys suggest.
    To digress a little>>>>
    I have two User IDs with adobe. One was originally with macromedia and the user ID is an email address. My original Adobe ID (since 1999) is the other. That ID is NOT an email address but a simple string. The log in refuses to accept a login ID that is not an email address.!!! All my adobe products are to be found under that ID!

  • Photoshop CS4 Extended Fails to Open Some Files

    >Thousands of files (images)have been save to a hard drive under CS, CS2 & CS3 in various formats, such as *.CR2, *.tif, *.psd, *.jpg, *.mrw.
    >When I attempt to open the images the following messages are returned depending on the file extension:
    >Could not complete your request because a JPEG marker segment length is too short (the file may be truncated or too short). (*.jpg)
    >Could not complete your request because it is not a valid Photoshop marker (*.psd)
    >Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document (*.CR2 & *.MRW).
    > Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you. Bob Hartman

    Normally that means you have corrupt files, usually due to disk errors.
    JPEG and raw files could indicate a problem with ACR, or the "open JPEG and TIFF in ACR" setting. But PSD files never touch ACR.
    You could try copying the files to another machine and see if they open, or use another application to try and open the files (it might skip over the corrupt bits).

  • D7000 raw files not seen in my iMac OS 10.7.5; Bridge and Photoshop CS4 Extended

    Please help!!! I just bought a Nikon D7000 and my iMac OS 10.7.5 does not recognize it, I cannot see the D7000 on the Desktop, Bridge, Photoshop CS4 Extended, etc Please assist. 

    ACR 6.x only works with Photoshop CS5, not CS4.  The latest Camera Raw you can install into Photoshop CS4 is 5.7.
    You have two choices, one free, one not:
    1.  Use the latest version of the free downloadable Adobe DNG converter to convert all your raw D7000 images to .DNG files each time you shoot, then open the .DNG files into Photoshop CS4, which it knows how to read with Camera Raw 5.x.
    2.  Upgrade to Photoshop CS6, which will give you maximum convenience and integration to be able to just open the D7000 raw .NEF files directly through Camera Raw.

    I'm trying to process RAW images from my new SanDisk Ultra memory card and unable to do so. I'm currently using Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended, is this the right one or do I need to update?

    …and you absolutely have to specify the camera model that generated those raw image files.

  • When I try to install Photoshop CS4 extended, machine locks up

    Down loaded LION.  Photoshop CS4 extended was working initially.  Then experienced hiccup, my daughter was going to clean up my machine for me and deleted a bunch of files.  Things were so screwed up I had to restore LION.  In the process, CS4 got corrupted somehow.  Tried to reinstall and whenever I do, the machine locks up and the dark screen of death appears.  I've tried everything to get CS4 to work but to no avail.  Sure would appreciate some suggestions, I really depend upon CS4 for my photographic work.  Thanks

    Since my last post (initial question/problem) I logged onto Adobe.  Among their recommendations was to download Adobe CS5 cleaner; which I did.  Still cannot even install Photoshop.  As soon as I try, I get the dark screen of death which requires that I power down and restart.  Any ideas?

  • Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended, owned for ages, licensing for this product has expired? Was using it two months ago.

    Hello,
    I have been trying to get Adobe's help for over a month now. I've been on the phone twice to them, opened up three seperate cases and still arrived at no solution. I was bought Photoshop CS4 Extended awhile ago and use it for my studies (I'm an art student). Two months ago my harddrive on my computer failed and I had to have a new laptop. I went to reinstall Photoshop and "Licensing for this product has expired" comes up. I've uninstalled, inreinstalled many times and used Microsoft Fix It Programme for uninstalling to make sure all the files are gone.
    Surfing the forums I learned that there should be a folder with back up and Adobe PCD but I don't have that folder at all. The serial number I use is my original serial number that I know works and adobe have even said it's a technical error. What do I do? College starts again in two weeks and I don't have the programme I use for it!

    Try the License Repair Tool Adobe - Adobe Licensing Repair Tool
    Other suggestions if this doesn't work: Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Windows
    Also if you must uninstall, use the Adobe CS Cleaner tool, not the Microsoft one. Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

  • Photoshop CS4 Extended, issues with resolution and font sizes on Mac

    I have Photoshop CS4 Extended, which worked fine on my old 15 inch Macbook Pro, I think it was 2011 and had high definition display.
    I now have a new 15 inch 'late 2013' Macbook Pro with retina display (2880 x 1800), and OS 10.9.4
    I have 2 problems:
    1) Using photoshop now, the resolution is a lot worse than with my old computer, even though my screen is higher resolution.
    For example, the images themselves are worse resolution on my display, far less crisp and more pixelated than any of my other programs. And even the windows such as 'save as...' screens are terribly pixelated also. Is there a way to fix this?
    2) When using the type tool, I cannot find how to change the size of the font. There used to be numbers which I could change, and also select the font type, both on the top menu bar always visible. Now there is not anymore. What there is there at the top, is what looks to be a bar on top of another bar. The top layer bar is on the left and reaches about one third of the way across the top, and I can drag it by its corner so it can extend more, but not less. It looks like there are things behind it which I cannot see, because it is over the top of them. Perhaps the text size and font options are stuck behind that. What can I do?
    Many thanks!
    Justin

    Hi JJMack, you said "Seems like you want a low resolution display hook and external display to it." I do not know what that means. I did a google search for "low resolution display hook" and it came up with zero results. Also I do not have an external display, only my laptop.
    Does anyone know what I can do to fix this issue? I would greatly appreciate any solution.
    Thank you!

  • Can I use Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended on my brand new iMac? I had PS on my old Mac using the student licensing.

    About four years ago, I purchased Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended while I was in undergrad. I downloaded it to my Mac. Since then, I've purchased a brand new iMac. Can I use this same software? I know it's been four years so the software is very updated, AND my new iMac does NOT have a cd drive. This may all be in vain. I'm just clueless! Thanks!

  • How do you make a 3d octagon in photoshop cs4 extended?

    How do you make a 3d octagon in photoshop cs4 extended that you can map artwork to? I've been searched online for a solution that doesn't involve using a 3D program but can't find anything. Can't you extrude a shape like in Illustrator, or exporta true 3D shape from Illustrator that will work? I'd use Illustrator but the mapping thing is finicky, and doesn't alow wrapping images around angles. (now someones going to say: "Don't mention any other programs in a PHotoshop forum!" Yeah yeah, there should be a forum then about using different Adobe programs together.) End of rant, any suggestions much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Thanks for your prompt response!
    Suggested Bridge Update
    It turns out that I got a message that this update had already been installed, which led me to more carefully look at the Bridge window and (finally) see that the Output module had a Quality dropdown: Full, 300 ppi, 150 ppi, 96 ppi and 72 ppi.  Thanks!  I decided to compare the CS4/Bridge results to those I got in CS2 with its convenient File/Automate/PDF Presentation/Multi-Page Document routine that I like.
    My project was an 8-page PDF made from scanned pages of handwritten notes into which some fairly small type had been insert using the Photoshop CS2 Type tool.  In Photoshop CS2, I had settled on "medium quality" JPEG compression as giving a "reasonable" file size (about 7 MB) and "very good/excellent" image quality.  I experimented with making the PDF in Bridge, using all five Quality levels.  See table below.  The Bridge "good minus" file was about the same size as the file produced in CS2, which I judged to be "very good/excellent" and slightly better visually than the 300-ppi, 23.5-MB Bridge file.
    Bridge Quality:
    Full
    300 ppi
    150 ppi
    96 ppi
    72 ppi
    File Size:
    25.2 MB
    23.5 MB
    7.6 MB
    3.2 MB
    2.1 MB
    Subjective Quality:
    Very good
    Very good
    Good minus
    Poor
    Useless
    I appreciate that you may not be all that interested in these observations, but it seems to me that Adobe has done us no favors in the multi-page PDF department in going from CS2 to CS4!
    Install the Old Contact Sheet/Picture Package Plug-Ins
    I had already done this some time ago, in order to get in CS4 the File/Automate/Contact Sheet II feature I liked in CS2.  It does not appear to me that this plug-in has anything to do with make multi-page PDF's.  Perhaps I'm missing something.
    Again, thanks for your response!

  • Photoshop CS4 Extended and Lion 10.7.4

    Does Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended work on Lion 10.7.4? when I get the "Licensing for this product has stopped working" and I advance to where I'm to click on the License RecoveryLauncher.app it does not appear. A file called License Recovery Launcher does appear with the circle with the line through it.

    Since this post is 4 months old, but for some reason only appeared today,  assume problem solved.

    I recently upgraded to Mac OSX Yosemite 10.10
    When I try to open Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended it says error 150:30 Licensing for this product has stopped working.
    I followed the help advice which says to download some software to mend the problem but it wont launch - error message You can’t open the application “LicenseRecoveryLauncher” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.
    How can I fix the problem?

    OS 10.7 and above uses the python script (.py) which is included in the License Recovery kit.
    Mac OS X 10.7
    a. Double-click the LicenseRecovery111.dmg
    Note: Leave this window open and proceed to the next step.
    b. Double-click your Hard Drive.
    c. Double-click Applications.
    d. Double-click Utilities.
    e. Double-click Terminal.
    f. Type “sudo python “
    Note: There is a space following “python”. Do not press Return.
    g. Drag LicenseRecover.py from the LicenseRecovery folder onto the Terminal Window and press Return. Note: Make sure that the Terminal window has the command and the path to the APP file. For example: "sudo python /Volumes/LicenseRecovery\ 11.6.1/LicenseRecovery/LicenseRecover.py”
