Problem with CS2 edit file size

When I create a new version of a 3-4mb original, make a few simple modifications in CS2 and save back to Aperture the resulting version is almost 70mb. If I export this version from Ap back to my desktop and check file size it is back to near the original size. Yet, when I check the file size stored in my Ap library, it is 70mb. This will fill my hard drive in a hurry! Can someone help explain this ??

I did a little more experimenting by making external edits in PS on a 3.9mb JPG file in both Aperture and Lightroom to see what the resulting file sizes were. In both cases I left the master outside the library so that I could see file additions in both the application library and in the folder containing the originals and revisions. I looked into the file directories to determine real file sizes rather than relying on info from the applications. The increase in library file size was small in both apps. However, there was a significant difference in the revised file size between Aperture & Lightroom in the folders containing the originals. The best I could do in Aperture produced a 24.6mb psd revised file, which showed as a version in the App., in addition to the master. Lightroom gives the option to revise the master or revise a copy of the master when exporting. When revising a copy of the master, the result was a new jpg file approximately the same size as the master - 3.9mb - which appeared as a version. This is what I would like to be able to do in Aperture.
I have been using PS for several years for all my photo enhancements and have developed a pretty comfortable and effective routine. Having used Aperture for a couple of months now, I can see that most minor edits can be done more easily in Aperture, but the same is true of Lightwell. Although I would probably only use PS on less than 25% of my keeper photos, this increased storage requirement seems more trouble than the advantages of Aperture vs Lightroom are worth. Maybe Apple will make a change in the next revision that will effect this situation and make Aperture more desirable for JPG shooters.
Thanks Again,
Bob

I'm having problems with CS2 (mainly illustrator and photoshop

I'm having problems with CS2 (mainly illustrator and photoshop ) randomly shutting down while trying to save a file. Reformatted my laptop for fear of a virus and reloaded... I have gotten nowhere.
Please Help!

CS3 still had issues with the preferences becoming corrupt, so a possible workaround would be to reset the preferences.
The file is called AIPrefs and is located under 'Documents and Settings/User/Application Data/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS3 Settings'. It is a hidden file. Delete it with Illustrator closed and when you launch the program again the file will be rebuilt.
May be it is also sounds like you need more memory for your computer. If you can navigate to your computer's memory controls, and allow your operating system to use a portion of your hard disk drive (HDD) as RAM (maybe 2Gb or so) it may solve your issue.
How is about: http://www.filerepairforum.com/forum/adobe/adobe-aa/illustrator/383-%E2%80%8Bcorrupted-fon ts-in-illustrator-file-urgent-help-need – resource has non-commercial specialty
Third party software Illustrator Repair Kit also must be good solution
It has free demo version at:- http://www.illustrator.repair/
Hope this will be helpful.

InDesign CS5 causing problems with InCopy assignment file but not content files

I'm having a strange InDesign/InCopy CS5 issue (Mac OSX 10.6.6; all system & Adobe updates are current). In my InDesign doc I have one assignment file containing two content files. All of the InCopy pieces work fine in InDesign (i.e., I can check out/in, edit, etc.). When I go to open the assignment file in InCopy, InCopy starts to open it but then crashes. If I try to open each content file directly in InCopy, no problem. I've tried deleting and recreating new assignments in InDesign, but they all have the same result in InCopy.
I think this actually is a problem with the InDesign file because if I export the InDesign file to IDML, then try to open the IDML file, InDesign crashes! I've trashed my InDesign preferences, made sure all cross-references are up to date, etc. Anybody have any ideas what else to look for in my InDesign file that might cause this problem?
Thanks!
Andrea

Thanks John!
1) Here are the first 10-ish lines from the crash report that is generated when I try to open the IDML file:

2) That works. Moved all pages (frame threading was preserved) to a new doc, exported to IDML, opened new IDML file just fine. Woo hoo! One of my editors won't be pleased that all of the tracked changes have disappeared, but at least the file functions now
Wish I knew what caused the problem in the first place so we could (hopefully) prevent this from happening again. Any ideas?
Thanks again for your help!

I have a problem with external editing preferences where Photoshop will not launch when I choose "Edit In"...

Hi. I have a problem with external editing preferences. If I add Photoshop as an external editor, it won't launch when selected, if I add it as an additional external editor it will. Why? How can I fix this as I need to use Photoshop and another program as the additional external editor.
I use a Mac running OS X (10.8.5) and PS CS4 and LR 5.7. Any ideas on a fix? Thanks in advance.

I don't know why Photoshop won't start. However, it's possible to create external editor presets using the additional external editor tools. There are instructions on how to do this in the Lightroom help. You could assign Photoshop and create one preset, and then assign another program and create another preset.
I don't know if deleting your preferences would fix the problem or not. It can sometimes fix other problems.

What are you going for....DVD-VIDEO Widescreen on DVD disc or AVCHD format on DVD disc?
Are you doing your burn to disc with a check mark next to "Fit Content To Available Space" in the burn dialog?
When you have the DVD 4.7 GB/120 min in the burner tray and are in the burn dialog ready to hit Burn, what does the burn dialog quality area show for Space Require and Bitrate with and without the check mark next to "Fit Content To Available Space"?
Just in case mention....the DVD disc with the 4.7 GB/120 min in reality is 4.38 GB.
The goal is to find out if you are overlooking the "Fit Content To Available Space" option in the burn dialog. Depending on the circumstances to be defined, use of that option does not necessarily mean a compromise in the end product quality.
Let us start here and then move forward based on the details of your reply.
Thank you.

Tempo problems with imported wav files

Hey everyone, sorry if there's a quick fix for this in the forums that I couldn't find, but I've been having some tempo problems with imported .wav files.
Long story short, my system couldn't handle playing all the tracks for a song while recording drums, so I bounced out an mp3 of the song and put it in a new Logic file so my drummer could just play along to that as I recorded him. Unfortunately, the original song is at 167 bpm, but I forgot to change the bpm in the new Logic file with the .mp3 file of the song to 167 bpm, so it was left at the default 120 bpm.
So, the drums were recorded at the correct 167 bpm, but Logic thinks that those new drum .wav files should be played at 120 bpm, so when I import my drum tracks back into the original file, they do not play correctly at all.
I could get record it all again, but I wanted to check if there was a way I could salvage what I already have, since my drummer lives about an hour away right now and can't just come over whenever he wants.
Thanks for the help! I really appreciate it.

Hi,
First, do not use MP3 in Logic, the sound quality is less than AIFF, WAV or CAF, and Logic has to decode it for playback, making it a heavier burden on the CPU than an uncoded audiofile, such as AIFF, WAV or CAF.
Secondly, audio files are independent of Logic's tempo. If you bounce down an audio file in any format (other than Apple Loop), it will play back at the same speed, +regardless of Logics' tempo setting+, either at recording or playback. Logic doesn't 'think' anything. The BPM is only important to MIDI tracks, or to the spacing between audio files. The audio files themselves *are not affected* by the tempo setting. If you import an audio file of tempo 167 into a 120 BPM project, the file will still play at 167, only Logic will indicate the wrong bar positions.
regards, Erik.

Problem with preview PDF files on Windows 7 32bit

Problem with local editing after update to SP13

Hallo,
we have updated our Enterprise Portla 7.00 to SP13. Now many user have Problem with local editing. The error message is "The download of the document fail".
I know that every PC needs the "Docservice" Active X component installed. The "Docservice" is also installed.
At my PC theres only this problem with "html" documents.
What could be the problem. ?
Please help.
Many thanks
Ronald

We found that there is a problem with the Docservice Active X Component.
If we work in a deeper folder there is a problem with the length of the url. I changed the TEMP Setting
"Setting a different TEMP directory:
In cases that it is problematic to use the standard %TEMP% directory,
setting the environment variable SAPKM_USER_TEMP pinpointing to a
corresponding directory path (e.g.
X:\SHARES\USERS\xxx\CheckedOutDocuments) will be also supported. If the
access to that directory fails the standard %TEMP% directory will be
used as fallback."
I used "C:\TEMP" and now it works....... but this cant be the solution....

Problem with uploading a file in Clustered Environment

Hi,
I have a problem with uploading a file in a clustered environment. I have an iview component which facilitates an upload action of an xml config file. The problem is that the upload of the modified XML file is reflected only in the central instance of the cluster and not in the dialog instances. The dialog instances hold the old config file.
Is there any solution to upload the file to all the nodes in the cluster.
Thanks
Kiran

Hi,
This is a known problem with clustered environment. Remember that your portal component runs on just on dialog instance and it doesn't automatically have access to the other nodes. However, there are some ways to get around this
1. Use KM to store files. KM is a common repository for all application servers and therefore you needn't worry more
2. Use an external batch oriented product (suresync/robocopy) to synch folders on the different DIs. You basically use your existing portal component, but there is a batch job which makes sure the upload folder is identical on all DIs (however, there is a slight delay depending on how often you run the batch job)
3. Store the files on a shared disk directly from the portal component.
Cheers

Hi, I have problem with importing MOV files from SJCAM 4000. MOV files are in supported formats for Adobe Premiere Elements 11. But if I'm importing MOV file, only audio part is imported, video part is not imported. How can I solve this problem?

Hi, I have problem with importing MOV files from SJCAM 4000. MOV files are in supported formats for Adobe Premiere Elements 11. But if I'm importing MOV file, only audio part is imported, video part is not imported. How can I solve this problem?

haben
From looking at the specifications of your camera (SJCam 4000), we know already what video compression your camera is using. It is H.264.
A H.264.mov file should be supported by Premiere Elements 11. On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 11 running?
Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer? And, are you running QuickTime and Premiere Elements 11 from a
User Account with administrative privileges? Please go to Premiere Elements 11 Publish+Share/Computer/QuickTime to confirm that you find
presets there for the QuickTime choice there.
What are the properties of these H.264.mov files - is it 1080p30 (1920 x 1080p30) or something else? Do you know if this camera is recording with a variable or
a constant frame rate?
Please review and consider and then we will decide what next.
Thank you.

Hi! I´m having problems with showing video files in Qlab on my Macbook Air. A sound/video technician told me to "blow out" my Mac. Was told to use cmd+ r when restarting. Is this the right way?

Hi! I´m having problems with showing video files in Qlab on my Macbook Air. It started suddenly. Consulted a sound/video technician who told me to "blow out" my Mac. Was told to use cmd+r when restarting. Is this the right way to clean up my Mac? And is it likely that some kind of bug is causing problems for Qlab to show video files? I´ve already tried with a bunch of different video files and sometimes Qlab plays them and sometimes not. I need the Qlab playlist for a theatre show and only have a week until showtime so starting to really worry. Is there anyone out there who can help?

Your Mac runs maintenance in the background for you.
Command + R gives you access to restore, repair, or reformat the drive using OS X Recovery
No idea why that was suggested.
You may have a third party video player installed that's causing an incompatibility issue.
Check these folders:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
/Library/Input Methods/
/Library/InputManagers/
/Library/ScriptingAdditions
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/

~/Library/ScriptingAdditions
The first four locations listed are in the root-level Library on your hard disk, not the user-level Library in your Home folder.The tilde (~) represents your Home folder.
To access the Home folder in OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, open the Finder, hold the Option key, and chooseGo > Library.
