Photoshop cs4 opens images black and only in camera raw

I'm running Photoshop cs4 on a pc. Recently, it began having 2 issues. First, it started opening everything into Bridge Camera Raw instead of just opening the image itself. Next issue is that when I attempt to open an image from Camera Raw, it opens black. I can see the image is there in a layer, but the working screen is black. Every once in a while it will open normally. This is with all images, no matter what size the are.

On a Mac I don't know which directory it should be in.
Camera Raw preferences: Bridge: menu Adobe Bridge/ Camera Raw preferences.
Inhere you can set the wished behavior for tiff. By default it shows tiffs
only in ACR when you choose to do so with right mouse click menu (open in
Camera Raw) or if the Tiff had earlier been altered in ACR, then it opens
automatically in ACR unless you choose not to do so.

  • Photoshop  cs4 opening image with Yello shade

    I would be really grateful if anyone can give me the solution for this problem.
    I have just installed CS4 Masters collection and using on a
    windows XP professional ver.2002 service pac 3.
    After opening any image on Photoshop, it shows in a yellow shade, the whole
    image. Cannot do anything to get rid of it. This makes it impossible to
    work on as the colors are all messed up.
    Help Please..!
    Thanks a lot in advance.
    Regards.

    Wuold be nice to know what kind of computer you have but in general i'm sure that you can solve your issue using this:
    Click on the *.exe of your adobe program with the right button of the mouse : "run as administrator"

  • Opening Nikon D600 NEF files using PhotoShop CS4 11.0.2 and ACR 5.7.0.213

    Hello,
    I've just bought a Nikon D600.
    I have Photoshop CS4 11.0.2 and ACR 5.7.0.213. 
    With these versions, I'm unable to open the D600 NEF files.  I get the following message:
    "Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document"
    Yet I can view the NEFs in other software that pre-dates the D600, e.g. FastStone Image Viewer 4.6.
    Does anybody know if I can get a plug-in from Adobe for PS CS4 that allows me to edit D600 NEFs?
    Many thanks for any help.
    Regards,
    Aisling

    Either upgrade to Photoshop CS6 or download the free DNG Converter and covert your NEFs to DNG.

  • I recently switched from PC to a Mac Book Pro and some things are different. I used to be able to open a jpeg or tiff in camera raw on my PC in Photoshop CS6 by going to file, open as, picking my image under file name and "open as" click on camera raw. Ho

    I recently switched from PC to Mac and I want to be able to open a tiff or jpeg in camera raw. I could do it on my PC but can't figure out how to do it in Mac??

  • Editing in Photoshop CS4 rotates image

    After making adjustments in Lightroom 3.2, if I then edit the image in Photoshop CS4, the image rotates slightly clockwise and affects any cropping and adjustments to the vertical I have already done in Lightroom. The rotation occurs as the image is opened in Photoshop so that when I return from Photoshop to Lightroom my image has changed (not counting those made in Photoshop). Why is this happening? I am working in Windows 7.

    Thanks, Dorin, for your response. That sounds like the right explanation. Would CS5 handle the perspective adjustments and lens corrections correctly?
    The files I am editing in Lightroom are pef (Pentax) or dng converted from pef by DxO. Right now I am right-clicking the image in Lightroom and selecting "Edit in Adobe Photoshop CS4". I get the same result with Ctrl+E; but Ctrl+Alt+E does nothing for me. Nothing happens with the latter. That may be because I am already using Topaz's tlfusionexpress2 as Lightroom's secondary editor.

  • Trying to get Photoshop CS4 functional with Mavericks and an Epson 3880 printer. CS4 fails to send a file to the print queue. Have reinstalled the Epson 3880 driver for Mavericks. All looks good but no file is sent.

    rying to get Photoshop CS4 functional with Mavericks and an Epson 3880 printer. CS4 fails to send a file to the print queue. Have reinstalled the Epson 3880 driver for Mavericks. All looks good but no file is sent.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    What EXACT version of Photoshop CS4 are you running?  You should be on Photoshop CS4 v 11.0.2.
    Also run Apple's software update to see whether it offers you the latest Epson update:
    Printer Driver v9.33
    Epson Stylus Pro 3880, Drivers & Downloads - Technical Support - Epson America, Inc.
    MOST IMPORTANTLY:  have Photoshop re-create its own Preferences:
    To re-create the preferences files for Photoshop, start the application while holding down Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS). Then, click Yes to the message, "Delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings file?"
    Note: If this process doesn't work for you while you're using a wireless (Bluetooth) keyboard, attach a wired keyboard and retry.
    Important: If you re-create the preferences by manually deleting the Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings file, make sure that you only delete that file. If you delete the entire settings folder, you also delete any unsaved actions or presets.
    Reinstalling Photoshop does not remove the preferences file. Before reinstalling Photoshop, re-create your preferences.
    NEW Video! Julieanne Kost created a video that takes you through two ways of resetting your Photoshop preferences. The manual preference file removal method is between 0:00 - 5:05. The keyboard shortcut method is between 5:05 - 8:18. The video is located here:

    Mac OS
    Important: Apple made the user library folder hidden by default with the release of Mac OS X 10.7. If  you require access to files in the hidden library folder to perform Adobe-related troubleshooting, see How to access hidden user library files.

  • Open item mgt and only balances in local currency

    Hi ,
    What is open item management and only banlances in local currency ?
    for which gl accounts v select open item management and only balances in local currency
    Pls explain urgent
    Regards
    umesh

    1. Only Balances in Local Currency:
    Indicates that balances are updated only in local currency when users post items to this account.
    Use: You would set this indicator for accounts in which you do not want the system to update transaction figures separately by currency.
    It is required to set theis indicator in:
    1.  cash discount clearing accounts
    2. GR/IR clearing accounts.
    It cannot be set in reconciliation accounts for customers or vendors. Setting it in all other instances is optional.
    Open item management:
    Determines that open items are managed for this account.
    Explanation: Items posted to accounts managed on an open item basis are marked as open or cleared. The balance of these accounts is always equal to the balance of the open items.
    Procedure: Set up accounts with open item management if offsetting entries are to be assigned to the postings made to these accounts. Postings to these accounts represent incomplete transactions.
    USE:
    A goods receipt/invoice receipt (GR/IR) clearing account should be managed on an open item basis so that you can check at any time whether invoices have been received for the goods received for an order.
    Set up accounts without open item management if no offsetting entry is to be made against a posting to this account.
    Accounts that are managed on an open item basis include:
    Clearing accounts:
    Bank clearing account
    Payroll clearing account
    Cash discount clearing account
    GR/IR clearing account
    Accounts that are not managed on an open item basis:
    Bank accounts
    Tax accounts
    Raw material accounts
    Reconciliation accounts
    Hope this is helpful. Pleas assign points if it is.

  • Hi! i took black and white pictures in RAW, but in Lightroom i see these only in color. what to do? thank you

    hi! i took black and white pictures in RAW, but in Lightroom i see these only in color. what to do? thank you

    You may want to read this I imported a mix of color and black and white raw files but lightroom changed all the black and white file to color?
    The Black and white you see is just the cameras representation of the "raw" pixel information straight from the sensor. The RAW file format has yet to undergo demosaicing, and so it contains just one red, green, or blue value at each pixel location.
    Lightroom, or any other RAW processor, doesn't recognize the in-camera processing because it is unique to the camera.

  • I bought CS4 a while back, and only loaded it one time on a PC with Windows XP operating system...

    I bought CS4 a while back, and only loaded it one time on a PC with Windows XP operating system. I understand I can load it 2 times. Will it work if I load it on Windows 8?

    You won't know until you try. These older versions were never extensively tested or certified on Win 8, but it should work for the most part iuf you follow the necessary procedures liuek turning off UAC and otehr fancies that may get in the way.

  • How do I ask photoshop elements to search for and only add pictures on my computer?

    How do I ask photoshop elements to search for and only add pictures on my computer?

    vbond0071 a écrit:
    Please tell me its a simple fix???
    [email protected]
    My suggestion:
    Read the help file carefully:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/elements-organizer/using/workspaces.html
    Now have a look at the the organizer display layout. Just over the main display panel where thumbnails are shown, there is a drop-down menu to choose the sort order. I assume you are on a recent version of Elements? If you are on PSE12 or 13 you can choose the chronological order (ascending or descending), the filename order, or the import batch. Additionally, if you are viewing an album you can have a manual custom sort.
    My other advice is that before you use the organizer, you take the time to read this help file carefully:
    Elements Organizer Help | Creating and editing catalogs
    The organizer is a very power tool if you understand what it can do and if you don't have misconceptions about how it works. It's a powerful toolset  based on catalogs. It can handle and manage folders and files, but that's not its main purpose. Its ability to manage the information included in the exif metadata of your files and the important information you enter with categories, keywords, captions, notes, ratings or the way you include pictures in albums, creations, stacks or version sets is very powerful.

  • After turning an image black and white, how can I color in a certain area?

    After turning an image black and white, how can I color in a certain area?

    How did you change it? Did you make your B&W on a separate layer? If so, just erase the part of the layer you don't want, or add a layer mask and paint with black over the parts you want to hide.
    If not, then you can copy/paste the original photo (you will need to press ctrl+A/cmd+A to select all before you can copy) into the new image. From there it depends on the relative proportions of B&W. Arrange the two layers so the one with the most area that you want to keep is on top, and either mask out the rest or just erase it away.
    For future reference, an easier way to do this when starting from scratch is to use the smart brush. Choose a black and white conversion style, turn on the inverse checkbox and paint over the part you want in color. The rest of the photo turns black and white, leaving what you paint over in the original colors.

  • How do you open more than one image at a time in Camera Raw?

    We used to be able to select more than one image from a folder and process one after the other in camera raw. Now we can only do one at a time. Is there a secret keyboard short-cut to allow this still?

    Which operating system are you using?
    One should still be able to open multiple files into camera raw.
    Camera raw files. tiffs and jpegs.
    If in the pse 13 Editor in the Expert mode you go to File>Open in Camera Raw, you aren't able to open more than one file into camera raw?
