Png-24 import into photoshop cs3

Anyone know a way to import png24 into photoshop cs3 / cs4?
whenever i do it all i get is a solid transparency.
i want to be able to batch several icons. lowering them in image size.

Does that remove the transparency or show the mask? The reason I ask is I have someone on another forum that is quite inquisitive. And would like to know how to do this. He states it is possible to do in AE so it should be possible in photoshop.
I currently only have CS3 but hopefully that changes next month.
The images that he needs this done on are renders from a 3d program. I assume he prefers png format even though it does support of formats including those that don't support transparency or an alpha. The thing is some images can take quite awhile to rerender.
The work arounds I told him about was to either
a)render just the background and place it on its own layer below the image. or
b)use a 3rd party program that does not support transparency or alphas like MSPaint.
I will forward your suggestion about CS5 though as I don't know what version he is using.
If anyone is interested in the other conversation you can find it here at http://www.spinquad.com/forums/showthread.php?29237-Photoshop-equiv-of-AE-s-quot-ignore-al pha-quot

Avi imported in Photoshop CS3 is blank / transparent

Hi, had this problem and have spent all morning finding a solution. I found another thread on here that answered it, but I thought I'd share the solution again for anyone else with the same issue.
Problem is when importing an avi file into Photoshop CS3 (XP in my case, can't see that it would make a difference), the file opens as a transparent or blank document. Video ran fine in Windows Media Player.
Photoshop uses Quicktime encoding, so test it in there first. If it doesn't play, you need codecs. Download gspot (great little freeware program), it will tell you what codec you need. Google and hope for a Quicktime version of it. In my case, it was the EnSharpen codecs from Techsmith, http://www.techsmith.com/download/codecs.asp.
After doing that, the avi ran like a dream in Quicktime for me. However, when putting it into PS, it was still mostly transparent and missing a great deal of the movement.
This was solved by going to Layer > Video Layers > Interpret Footage. I chose Ignore under Alpha Channel, and voila, all perfect!
Hope that helps someone else with the same issue at some point. :)

This ARTICLE will give you some background on AVI "wrappers."

My Images won't open in Photoshop CS5 when I click on Edit in Lightroom - even though this option has been selected? To edit in Photoshop I have to export image from Lightroom then import into Photoshop. I have other programmes such as NIK and if I wish to edit in these everything works fine.

Same here. I've never had trouble with this function before.
It opens the Photoshop application with all the menus/windows, but it never opens the actual image I chose to work on.
I'm on a Mac, using OS X Yosemite, 10.10.1 Lightroom is version 5.7 Photoshop is CS5, version 12.0.4
FWIW, I also can't automate>Photomerge ... . Makes me think Photoshop, not Lightroom, is all wacky. I tried dumping PS preferences

Epson 2450 Scanner no longer available as an import into Photoshop

Hello,
I am having a problem with my Epson 2450 scanner importing into Photoshop. Last week with thoughts of upgrading, I purchased an Epson V700. I installed the scanner but found it not to my liking and returned it. Yesterday I downloaded and ran the Uninstaller to remove the V700. This however deleted my 2450 driver as well. I reinstalled the 2450 driver from Epson but then, and after repeated attempts, found that the 2450 is not showing up as an import option. Please note that I am still using Tiger. Any suggestions to getting this all working again as it has for the past 8 years would be greatly appreciated. One simple use of an uninstaller has turned for the worse - I wish I had just kept the V700 installed and just ignored that it was still listed in Photoshop as an import choice. (Please note also, that I am a high school photo teacher and was planning on giving the 2450 to my school. I was not able to load the driver and use the scanner through Photoshop on our school Macs either.)
Thank you,
Nick M.

Hello, did you repair Permissions & reboot yet?
One possible option is Vuescan...
http://www.hamrick.com/
It supports the 2450, can be made to send the scan directly to PhotoShop, and has many more features than Epson's SW does.

How do I import into Photoshop touch a PSD file from sketchbook pro mobile?

How do I import into Photoshop touch a PSD file from sketchbook pro mobile?

I don't believe you can at this time. The only way to get PS Touch to import a PSD is to upload it to Creative Cloud first (but even then it'll flatten any layers).

Captivate 3 is wrong size when importing into Flash CS3

I've tried exporting, publishing etc. and no matter how I
try, when I import into Flash CS3 the size of the Captivate content
(background screens, in particular) are too small. For example, I
captured a 423x424 area for my Captivate project. When I import
into a Flash CS3 project with the same dimensions the Captivate
content (screens) are more like 203x203.5 and the mouse path and
slide context starting positions are upper left corner. I've tried
adjusting some of the importing settings but can't get the screens
the right size unless I resize each one manually - and I have
around 100. Any help greatly appreciated!

I am using captivate 3 and I get an error whenever I try to
export to flash cs3. unknown error.
why the hell doesnt Adobe say that flash is required to
export to flash BEFORE I buy the software? I am using my pc for
captivate, but am primarily mac based and was going to edit in
flash on my mac. but captivate didnt allow for me to export to
flash at all without any kind of flash installed. I installed a
demo version of flash, but the export is coming up with an error.
any ideas out there? adobe??? I'm currently using vista OS.
thanks in advance. r

Problem with m2t clip import into AE CS3

I have footage that I need to use AE to stabilize, but something odd is happening on import. The footage is 24p/1080 HDV shot on a Canon XH-A1s, and I'm importing the native .m2t files into AE CS3. I have the AE project settings on 24 fps, but when I import the m2t clips, they shift to 44.96 fps for no apparent reason.
If I open up the Interpret Footage box for the imported clip, it's clear that AE *thinks* the footage is 44.96 fps. When I then change the frame rate to 24 fps in the Interpret Footage box, it still doesn't get it quite right (e.g., a shot that is exactly 15s00f long now reads as 14s22f).
I tried using 23.976 fps as the footage intepretation, but it didn't make a difference...not that I thought it would.
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance,
Stu

You need to convert that m2t footage to a different codec. AE 9 can't handle that kind of footage.
Since I'm a Mac guy, I like to go with Quicktime's PNG codec: it's lossless.

How to get ImageReady CS slices into Photoshop CS3??

I have several website interfaces designed in Photoshop CS and sliced in ImageReady. I update these sites weekly and need to work within the established slice areas. I now have Photoshop CS3 and none of the slices come with the file when opened thanks to Adobe dropping ImageReady.
Am I missing something here?
Please help. Updates long overdue to these websites while I try to figure out this problem.
Thanks.
Kirk

The slices are for the entire interfaces on database-driven ecommerce sites, so when a product photo changes, etc. I need to replace it and the new one needs to be the exact same size obviously. Given that the interface is built by the database, the various areas that make up the interface (page top, side navigation, etc.) are not in a single document. This makes the option of redrawing all the slices and getting the resulting HTML back into the database very unattractive.
Isn't there some way of getting the existing slices out of ImageReady and into CS3 or Fireworks? Export as something and bring in as slices? Something?
Thanks.

Import into photoshop as layered smart objects

is there a way to import images into mulitiple images into photoshop as smart objects from bridge?
Thanks

I tried to using the ACR export setting: 'open as Smart Objects in PS' and
hit done, revert to Bridge and with Tools - load to layers.
It seemed the obvious route for me but it did not work sadly enough.
However using the load to layers tools gives you the option to select the
layers in the file and then convert to smart objects, only you have to do it
one by one I'm afraid.

How do you export a Premiere Pro screen shot without distortion when importing into Photoshop?

How can I take a screen shot in Premiere Pro (CS6 or CC) without it becoming distorted? Lately, when doing this, the images are elongated. Then, when I bring the image into Photoshop, it looks fine, except that the Pixel Aspect Ratio has been automatically engaged. I seem to not be able to do anything to the image to correct it and when saved, it goes back to its distorted form. What am I doing incorrectly? What is the fix for this? Is this a Premiere issue or a Photoshop issue? BTW, I posed the same question on the Photoshop forum. SIDE NOTE: I tried to resolve this via a chat session...that was an exercise in futility.
Thanks!

The MTS files that I imported into my project are 1080i 29.97 fps, upper field first, 1.0 pixel aspect ratio.
I tried encoding an AVI with the Lagarith codec with these settings and had better results this time but the frame rate still stuttered.
I even tried making an MOV with the H.264 setting and had strange results.
I can make an H.264 MP4 at 1920x1080 with no problem.
What are the exact settings for an MOV or AVI just in case I missed something? I really want to have an uncompressed file to archive that can be easily edited later on. I'm thinking that MOV would be the most flexible format.

Video looks terrible after imported into Encore CS3

I have a great looking m2v file (for Blu Ray) that I compressed with Squeeze. After I import it into Encore CS3, it looks poor in preview. The clips starts off with white text on a black background. In preview mode, the text looks aliased or "jagged". I thought this was a preview issue, but it looks just as poor after I burn it to BD-R and play it back on our PS3.
Encore project specs : 1280 x 720 59.94fps MPEG2
The specs of my m2v file: 1280 x 720 59.94fps av, bitrate is 28000 kbps.
Naturally, our client is getting impatient for an explanation. Any help on solving this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Vince

You should wind up with an encoded asset (your clip) as 1920x1080 m2v which should be automatically created, if you use a BluRay Project and select MPEG2 under the project settings.
Why don't you try that and then burn a BluRay folder and burn the disk with IMGBurn, using a BD-RE disk, so you won't waste money on several BD-R disks?
I'm not sure where the "encore specs of 1280x720" come in.
I'd be interested as to how this comes out.

Does Apple's ImageKit really allow scan import into Photoshop?

On this page Adobe claims:
If your scanner manufacturer does not support scanning in 64-bit mode, or you have issues scanning with TWAIN, you can scan into Photoshop CS6 using Apple’s ImageKit technology, which is built into Photoshop CS6, does not need a plug-in to be installed, and provides access to a large number of scanners.
That doesn't work with my Epson Perfection V350 Photo. I wonder if it actually works with any scanner. With Photoshop CS6 have wiped out many scanners that don't have 64-bit compliant drivers, why doesn't Adobe connect with Apple's Image Capture app? Why doesn't the V350 work with the ImageKit technology alllegedly part of Photoshop CS6?
Adobe needs to restore the import from scanner capability that has been part of Photoshop for years.

Hi nicmart,
The ImageKit scanning feature in Photoshop CS6 supports exactly the same scanners as Image Capture does. Unfortunately, this feature is currently broken in Photoshop when running Mountain Lion (CS6 was released prior to the release of Mountain Lion). We are working closely with Apple to resolve the problem. This issue has been discussed in detail in several other forum threads since the release of ML. As soon as we have more information, we will let people here in the forum know.
If you are running Lion or Snow Leopard, you should find that indeed a large number of scanners are supported without any additional software needed, and can be used to scan directly into Photoshop CS6. Apple publishes a list of hundreds of supported scanners in a tech note, which you can find at <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669>

Problems placing ai and eps files into PhotoShop CS3 on a Mac

When I place any ai or eps file into PhotoShop using File > Place, the images are pixelated. It does not matter if the PhotoShop file size is 72 dpi or 300 dpi, the end result is still the same.
Placing images used to work a few days ago, and now all of a sudden it does not. Are there any settings that may have been changed?

I can’t reproduce the problem, but as with all unexplainable Photoshop-problems You might try trashing the prefs (after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences You’ve changed) by pressing command-alt-shift on starting the program.

KMZ and 3d Google file import problems (Photoshop CS3 Extended)

I'm new to the forum, so, I hope I didn't miss any answers about this in the FAQs, etc.--I did look.
I have PSCS3 Extended and have downloaded and installed the Google 3D Warehouse plugin. I can access the plugin which takes me to the Google 3D website and I can navigate to and download 3D models. However, when the model is actually brought into Photoshop, it looks very strange. The model is only visible in fixed shape area that appears to be the shape of the initial 3d model. But when I rotate and move the model, it simply slides the view of the image inside the fixed shape area. Very strange. I've tried this with about 8 different downloaded KMZ (Google Earth 4) models and they all do this same strange behavior. Additionally, I downloaded Google's free SketchUp program. The models load and appear fine in that program. I've exported from that program, but the files still have the same problem when loaded up into Photoshop.
I'm really baffled by this. Any guidance would be much appreciated.

Problem solved!
Prior to my posting here, I had checked Dell's Customer Care driver download site for the latest video card driver and had downloaded the most recent one they had posted for my video card. I also had let Windows Vista "check for updated driver" for the video card and it reported that I had the most recent video driver.
WRONG!
Instead of relying on Dell's Customer Care driver download web site or Windows Vista's updated driver button, I decided in one last desperate attempt to go directly to nVidia's web site to check for the most recent driver (I know, I should have done this to begin with, but if Dell and Windows offer driver updating ease, I had the silly idea that it would actually work correctly!). The nVidia site had a driver that was one month newer. I downloaded it and installed it and now the KMZ file is appearing correctly in PSCS3, and, so are all the other 3d file formats (3DS, DAE, etc.)!
Hope this information helps anyone else out there who might be having this problem. And, the problem was NOT PhotoShop or Google or the plug-in, the problem was Dell and Microsoft's driver support not updating driver support in a timely manner.
