Problem editing photo's from LR 2.0 in Photoshop

I have a problem editing photo's from LR 2.0 in Photoshop CS4. When I select a photo to edit in PS PS starts up but nothing further happens. This goes for all the different options (in layers, as HDR, etc) except for editing the original photo (in this case a jpeg-file). The option "edit original file" works fine. Help!!

Don't know whether it will fix it, but you should ditch 2.0 and install 2.1 RC (see top of the forum for the link). There were many bugs like this in 2.0 that were fixed in 2.1, so certainly worth a try. If nothing else, you'll have a much smoother running Lightroom.

Problem editing photos in iPhoto 6

Hi,
I am having a problem editing photos. When I click on a photo to edit I get the following error message:
Unreadable Files
The following file could not be imported. (The file is in the iPhoto Library folder.)
/Users/myusername/Pictures/iPhoto Library2006/Modified/2006/Roll2183/DSCN0164.jpg
I have rebuilt the photo library. I also backed up my iphoto library and reimported the photos. I have not messed with the photo library at all. I import my photos from the camera and generally work with them. I think this has been a problem since upgrading to 6.
Has anyone else seen this?
Thanks!

Hi
Welcome to the Apple DIscussions:
This could be a file permissions issue:
Download BatchMod from
http://macchampion.com/arbysoft/
And apply it to the iPhoto Library Folder using the settings found here:

How to stop photos opening in preview. I have always edited photos right from my desktop and now they are all opening in preview.

I have always edited photos right from my desktop and now they are all opening in preview. How do I change it back? Thanks!

They open in Preview by default.
However, if you open Picture Folder in Preview, navigate to any photo ( without opening it ) then right click on the photo and select Get Info from the dropdown menu.
About 2/3rds' of the way down on the Get Info tab you'll see a Marker ' Open WIth '. Enter whichever editing program you're using.
Whenever you open a photo from whatever it's location it will open in the chosen editing program.
Hope this helps.

Saving edited photo separate from original

How do I save a photo that I have cropped and modified in other ways as a separate photo from the original? If I choose "return to original version" I lose the changes.
One other question if anyone can help me has to do with my iPhoto Library. I have a lot of photos, but none of them appear when I use Finder on iPhoto Library.
Thanks in advance.

How do I save a photo that I have cropped and modified in other ways as a separate photo from the original? If I choose "return to original version" I lose the changes.
Duplicate the pic first, and make your edits on the duplicate. If you want multiple versions from a single master you'll need to use another app - Aperture, for instance.
One other question if anyone can help me has to do with my iPhoto Library. I have a lot of photos, but none of them appear when I use Finder on iPhoto Library.
Since iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is now a Package File. This is simply a folder that looks like a file in the Finder. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
Want to look inside the Library? Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Standard Warning: Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
*For Users of 10.5 and later*
You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
*For users of 10.4 and later* ...
Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
*If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
For users of 10.6 and later:
You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and later:
Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

Photoshop and elements 13
Working in iPhoto
Want to edit image using photoshop elements
Did the following
IPhoto>Preferences>Advanced>Edit Photos: In drop down menu chose in Photoshop Elements
Also control click and chose edit in external editor
Drop down menu edit photos in external program>photoshop Elements
Go to to the image I'm working on --- selected the image, the clicked on edit. When nothing happened I double clicked the image. Still elements didn't open. Then I opened the Elements editor, went back to iphoto and tried the entire process again. the photo still didn't open on Elements 13 for editing.
I have 3 Elements 13 books as well as looked on line--all my references say the exact same thing ---- iPhoto>Preferences>advanced>edit in external program>photoshop Elements
I uninstalled and reinstalled both iPhoto as well as Elements.
I spoke with application technical support. There appears to be nothing wrong with my copy of iPhoto. However there is no support from Adobe. I waited for over 1.5 hours for chat support several days ago, and finally gave up.

You are probably choosing the obvious file rather than the correct file as the PSE editor. The actual editor is hidden away inside the Support Files folder. The PSE file at the top level of the PSE folder in Applications is just an alias for the welcome screen and what you're describing is exactly what happens when you choose that. You want this one:

Batch edit photos coming from iPhone 4s

I use iPhoto and iCloud to gather and organize photos taken with my new iPhone 4s. It works really well apart from the fact that when compared to pictures taken with my DSLR the iPhone photos are too "warm". I would like to make a standard adjustement of the temperature for all photos coming from the iPhone. Is there a way to do this in iPhoto, with a batch edit f.i.? If not, are there other tools that can help? I would like to keep the workflow as simple as possible. All suggestions are welcome.
Tx,

HT4236 Problem deleting photo albums from device - previously synced from PC

I am unable to delete synced photo albums from my device and do not know why. I have changed my settings when syncing to try and remove the photo albums but the albums are still on my iphone.
I cannot delete the albums manually on the device either.

You have to deselect the albums/folders/photos, under the photos tab in iTunes, then hit the "Apply" button to remove synced photos from your phone.

Problems with rotating/editing photos trans from ipad to pc

Have been trying to transfer photos taken on ipad to my pc That bit is OK But whether i transfer individually via email or via the photo transfer app the pictures are all rotated automatically in the pc and nothing I have tried will allow me to save any amendments I thought it was because I had uploaded from photostream but have re-uploaded the photos from the photoalbum but still having problems it seems to default to landscape setting Any suggestions for correcting this problems? Thanks

Had the exact problem. Many pictures I took with my iphone or iPad would be rotated in photostream and I could not rotate them back to the correct orientation. I tried emailing them, saving them under a different name, etc. I decided to open the pictures up in Adobe Photoshop. For some reason when it opens in photoshop the picture is oriented correctly. I then clicked on "Save As" from the FILE dropdown menu and saved the picture back to the same folder with the same name with the difference being that I saved it as a JPEG file. It will ask if you want to overwrite the original. Say yes to both the windows that appear. Once it is saved back into the photostream file the picture was corrected. I did this with all of the rotated pictures and they were all fixed. Hope this helps.

Unable to edit photo imported from iphone 4S

Hello,
After I imported photos from my iPhone 4S to my PC (with Windows 7) every picture that I try to edit (rotate) I receive an error: "Windows Photo Viewr can't save the changes to this picture because there's a problem with the picture's file proprietes"
I checked the proprietes and all seems to be ok
Any ideea what is the problem?
Thanks

On XP, this fixed the problem for me: When you connect your iPod to your PC, use the Microsoft Scanner and Camera Wizard to import the pictures. I was just going directly to the folder and copying them to my PC manually and was getting the error. Using the Wizard, everything works fine. Hope this helps.

PSE 6 - problem with photos disappearing from Slideshow

Hello,
I worked on a slide show recently and then exported it to a .wma file. I returned to the slide show project in Elements a couple of days later to add another slide. Out of the 27 slides only three were intact. In 25 slides, there were no longer any pictures, but the captions were intact. The other one that was intact was a slide with just a caption. Also the timestamp on the slide show project was 2/12/2009 at 10.37 but I saved changes on 2/14 and those were saved (like the slide with just the caption I mentioned above) I don't know what happened or how I can get back to where it was before.
Thanks for the help!

> When I installed Adobe Lightroom, I was asked if I wanted to create a separate catalog for Lightroom or merge with the one from Photoshop elements. I chose the separate catalog for Lightroom and all the photos in the Photoshop elements organizer got wiped out (including a previous slideshow I had made)
I dont think that would normally occur, so something screwy was going on with your installation. Lightroom can import a PSE catalog, but it should never overwrite it. But Im not a Lightroom expert perhaps someone else more knowledgeable can help on that.
> I read other people having issues with catalog when upgrading to PSE7. So would that also be a case where you can lose the catalog(and the slideshow along with it)when you upgrade?
There are many potential problems that occur when you upgrade from PSE 6 to PSE 7. Of the ones that have been posted here, most people who have stuck it out get the problems fixed eventually, though I think many people give up in frustration before then.

Mail problem receiving photos videos from Iphone

Hi,
Writing from France so sorry for my poor english.
I have an issue since a few wekks to receive properly photos or videos sent from Iphones (ly wife's or mine).
In fact here is what I get in Mail window.
I cut the mail but it is quite long.

I have absolutely no problem with standard mails but each time I receive a picture or video from my wife's iphone I get this result which is quite disturbing.
Could you please help me?
Best regards.

Problem accessing photo's from icloud when upgraded from iphone 3gs to 5

I upgraded from an iphone 3gs to a iphone 5, but I don't seem to be able to access my photo's that were stored on icloud. As these consisted a lot of my granddaughter from birth I would not like to loose them, even tho I have some copies on my computer. Am a bit of a novice at all this but can anyone tell me how to access them. I have tried to follow what it says to do, but only seems to have the photos that I have since taken on my new phone. Nothing from my old one.

Ensure on your on you iPhone 5 that you have Photo Stream enabled. Go to Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream. Ensure these settings are on.
And also ensure that you have signed in with the same Apple ID that you had on your 3GS.

Can i access and edit photos direct from finder rather than import and duplicate in iphoto?

Hi, I have tens of thousands of photos so would rather not duplicate them in two places and eat into my storage. Is it possible to access photos saved in My Pictures direct from iPhoto without having to import them directly (and therefore duplicate them) into iPhoto? Any help appreciated! Thank you

Yes but you don't want to.
It's called running a Referenced Library and you can read about the issues and pitfalls in this thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3062728?tstart=0
Frankly the better way to work is to import them to iPhoto and let iPhoto copy the files. Live and work with it for a while and when you're content trash your pre-existing filing system - it's of no use to you any way. If you use iPhoto (or similar apps, like Aperture, Lightroom etc) you access the photos via those apps and not the Finder - the point of using a Photo Manager after all.
If you have a folder tree or pre-existing organisation structure you can recreate it quite quickly in iPhoto. For instance:
If you want to duplicate your Folder Tree in iPhoto:
Start at the bottom of the hierarchy and drag a folder of images to the Album Heading in iPhoto. The pics will be imported and an Album of the same name created.
You can then create the Enclosing Folders in the iPhoto Window (File -> New Folder) and drag the Album to it. Folders can contain other Folders (Nested Folders) and Albums.
However, is your folder system date based? Then this form of organisation is a bit pointless in iPhoto when Smart Albums or the Calendar tool (Click on the wee magnifying glass in the Search Box) mean you can find the photos taken on any day, month or year at a click. With Smart Albums it's easy to find photos from specific range - say, June 3 to August 25, 2009 etc.
If your folder system is theme based - Xmas pics, Birthday pics etc, then you'll find Keywords are much more flexible, and can be used in conjunction with other criteria for making Smart Albums and searches.

Problems with photo import from iphone 4 with ios5 to pc

Help, when I try to import my pix using windows it will only import my first 77 pix which are already on my computer from past imports. The other 100 pix on my iphone do not import or even attempt. When the window comes up to import I click yes and it says importing 77 pix??? Why will it not import the other pix. I've recently updated my software to ios 5.0.1 but I'm not sure when I did this vs. the last imported pix. I have icloud but I clicked no on syncing pix to icould just because of all the space it would require. Any ideas???

More info: I can manually copy the pix from my iphone in the pc then paste to my folders in the pc??? I'm using Windows 7 home edition. And the 77 number is not the start/ending point of old pix new pix during software update.
