Problems importing Photoshop edited images...

Hi to all of you smart people. Let me know if there is already a thread on this topic...
So here's my question. I am having problems importing images I converted to grayscale in photoshop into iPhoto. They show in iPhoto as if they are negatives. Thanks!

Hi Rebecca, Yes that is a known problem and there are numerous threads on the subject. Do a search for "greyscale" or "grayscale" (how do you spell grey anyways?)

  • Photoshop edited image not appearing back in Aperture!!

    I'm a Lightroom user but thought I'd try out Aperture 3 for a new project to see if I prefer it.
    I scanned in an old family photo album and imported them into Aperture. Some of the photos got torn as I removed them from the pages (they were glued!!) so I thought I'd repair them in Photoshop and also try to remove the paper texture that also got 'scanned' for some of the photos.
    When I choose the option "Edit with Adobe Photoshop CS4", I can see a TIFF copy is created and it appears alongside the original image in the viewer. I can also see the physical file in Finder.
    However, after I finish editing the image in Photoshop, and save and close it, switch back to Aperture, the TIFF image just disappears from the viewer.
    I checked to see if a stack is created, but there isn't one. The physical file still exists in Finder though.
    I tried manually importing the edited TIFF image back into the project, but it still doesn't appear!!!
    The Aperture library file has increased though, so it seems like something has happened but I just can't seem to access my Photoshop edited image in Aperture.
    I have tried this a few times, with different photos, but get the same results.
    The other option I tried was regenerating thumbnails for the project but still nothing happens.
    Anyone have any suggestions, what's going on??

    How did you fix this? I'm having a similar problem!

  • Importing Photoshop RAW images into Aperture

    When I import Photoshop RAW images that I have made adjustments to, into my Aperture library, they show up as the original RAW files and not with my adjustments. Is there a way to get the RAW adjustments imported as well.
    The only reason I need to import them into Aperture is to post them in a web gallery. Or is there a way to create a ME web gallery directly from Photoshop files? How about creating a ME web gallery directly from Lightroom? Anybody have a clue?)
    (Btw, in attemtpting to research this topic, I find I am totally unable to do a search of the discussions. Even with a search word like "Aperture", I get no messages. Not matter what search word I enter I get no messages found. ???)
    Thanks!
    Jim

    Thanks for the reply Allen.
    I am saving them all as TIFFS now. I was just trying to avoid that time-consuming step. I do not really need them as TIFFS right now. It is to show edited RAW files to a client. Later, when selections are made, I would save that much smaller number of images as TIFFS. But it seems that there is no other way to import the RAW files with the edits into Aperture.
    I used to create all of my web albums for clients in PS. But once I got a .mac account, I love and prefer the look of the .mac web galleries. But of course that necessitated importing all my PS files into either iPhoto (not an option) or Aperture. But can these PS web galleries be exported to a .mac web gallery?
    Thanks!

  • After editing in photoshop cs6 my photoshop edited image does not appear in Lightroom 4

    after editing in photoshop cs6 my photoshop edited image does not appear in Lightroom 4 can anyone help?

    In Library, set your sort order to Filename instead of Added order and see if the files show up, then. 
    How are you doing the Save in PS, using Save or Save As—one will show up, one won’t, I think, but I don’t remember which.

  • Problem: importing a transparent image from Photoshop to Premiere.

    Dear Adobe community,
    I am trying to import a transparent image from Photoshop to Premiere Pro CC. Whatever file format I choose to export from Photoshop, Premiere Pro CC will not import the file correctly. When I import is, two things occur: 1) the image gets imported, but the white background is still there or 2) the image gets an error "The importer reported a generic error".
    Does anyone have an idea how I can get an image with a white background transparent into Premiere Pro CC.
    Specs:
    MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, eind 2013)
    2.8 GHz Intel Core i7
    16GB RAM
    1536MB Intel Iris videocard
    Thanks!
    Christiaan

    You need to make sure the image has an alpha channel.
    Images like jpeg dont have an alpha channel.
    Psd or png do and the image has to be RGB.
    Make sure the background in PS is also transparant.

  • Move to Aperture with Photoshop edited images?

    There was just a new thread which asked about iPhoto edited images being moved to Aperture. Didn't want to be accused of hijacking a thread by asking an elaboration in that thread, so here's a new one.
    A further question that thread brings up:
    I too have edited images. (Very few are in iPhoto).
    I do have way too many edited images that have little clones, in various states of edit & possibly recropped in Photoshop, as well. Saved as various resolutions of *.png or *.jpg or *.psd. It appears daunting to move all those in a coherent way.
    Is there a way to handle a move to Aperture that reduces the pain of such a messy state?

    In Aperture you have two different flavors of organizing structures:
    Containers (projects and folders): In the projects you store your images, and the folders help to group them hierarchically for easy access, see Kirby Krieger's essay: Re: Organizing in Aperture, concise long version:
    Output structures: Album, smart albums, slide shows, books, webpages, ...: The output structure does not actually store the images, but references them for specific uses and describes relations between images, bases on properties of the images, like keywords, captions, and other tags.
    What you need to do, when designing your own library structure, is to clearly seperate the aspects - storage and use:
    The storage structure should be simple, but consistant - I am a follower of Kirby's maxime: "one shoot - one project" - just like in the old times of rolls of film - one box per film roll. As to the allocation of folders to contain your projects, there are different approaches; you may go for a chronological scheme How do you structure you library? or group by categories, anything is fine, as long as it isn't to involved, straight forward, and easy to maintain.
    The output structure should be flexible; you will find that you will frequently adapt it to the project at hand. Since the ouput structure heavily relies on the tags and keywords, you should invest some effort into define import presets, to get most of your tagging done automatically on import.
    Thus said, back to the problem at hand:
    Looking: If I use "Stacks," I can group/clump them together. That's a pretty good use for stacks, especially if judiciously assembled into a project container.
    I recommend against using stacks for long-term structuring. Stacks are somewhat weird, transient creatures between storage and output structures: they don't fit completely into one of the above categories. They are used by Aperture as storage stucture on import, but their use is restricted - you cannot move single  images contained in a stack to another project (all images in the stack will move together), and special rules apply if you use stacked images in books and slide shows. Also you will need stacks for other uses, and you will want to be able to stack your images according to other criteria. It easy to unstack all images by mistake - happens to me all the time - then your storage structure will be broken.
    I suggest to group related images by filename on import - using a custom import preset for filenames. That way your structure will be persistent not as fragile as when based on stacks.

  • Workflow - Aperture to Photoshop, edited image back to Aperture?

    Hi experts...
    I'm sure I am doing something wrong here, I just don't know what it is...hoping you can give me some advice.
    Let's say I have a RAW file in Aperture (a referenced file, if it makes a difference) called "A". I want to tweak this photo and then post to Flickr. For various reasons, I choose to edit this particular image in Photoshop. So when I tell Aperture to edit "A" in an external editor, it creates a version (I think?) called A.TIF and then takes me into Photoshop.
    After my edits in Photoshop, I want to save the image as a JPEG for exporting to Flickr. I save it as "SomeDescriptiveName.JPG". Before I exit, Photoshop asks me if I want to save the changes I made to the TIF. "Naaaah," I think...I've got the JPEG.
    Now, here's where it goes sideways. I would hope/expect that when I return to Aperture, "SomeDescriptiveName.JPG" is 'linked' to the original version, or at least appears in the catalog. It doesn't. I have to import "SomeDescriptiveName.JPG" into Apeture.
    This seems really messy - is there some way to have the edited image show up in A3 and have it linked (version, whatever) to the original? If not, is there a way to at least have the edited image automatically show up in the Aperture catalog?

    Aperture expects the same file format back. In PS, just close the file (save when asked) and it will show up in Aperture with the PS changes (and in the format in which it was sent to PS). You can then use Aperture to export (in any way you want).
    Alternatively you can just export from Aperture and then save/save-as from PS. In this case your edited photo is not in your Aperture Library. This method is generally considered less desirable.
    Here is the relevant section from the Help file:
    *To use an external editor in Aperture*
    Select an item in the Browser.
    Choose Photos > Edit with > {application name} (or press Command-Shift-O).
    Aperture creates a new master (leaving the original unchanged), converts it to the chosen file format, and then opens the file in the external editor. The file is tracked as a new master stacked with the original master.
    When you’ve finished modifying the image, audio, or video file in the external application, save the file.
    The saved file is automatically updated in Aperture.

  • Problem importing some jpeg images

    **** all
    For some reason I cant import selected jpeg images, about 75% of them are grayed out for some reason, the images are jpegs I have collected on line and are the only images I seem to have a problem with.
    Any idea way ?
    Thanks

    yes I have the actual image, I found the problem .
    they where all grayed out cause of the image size, I downloaded desktop images.
    I'm glad I worked it out cause I'm using these images as backgrounds and, have 487 of them. I ran them through easybatchphoto and resized the width on all of them to 800. now they all work fine.

  • Photoshop edited images move to iPhoto & iWeb

    I plan to redesign my web site and publish in iWeb. Previously, my web site was developed with FrontPage and hosted on an Earthlink server. My photo images were edited in Photoshop. I assume I will need to import my photos into iPhoto before designing my web site in iWeb. Any advice on photo size, resolution, and file type before I import my photos into iPhoto?

    I suspect you will get other responses, but if you haven't seen this it's from the Iweb Help and may be of interest.
    good luck
    Resampling (or downsampling) is a method of reducing a photo’s file size. Downsampling helps your website publish faster and helps photos display and download faster for your visitors.
    Photos you add to a Photos template are imported full size and downsampled automatically when you publish.
    For very large, high-quality RAW and JPG images, you can choose iWeb > Preferences and select “Optimize images on import.” This setting reduces the size of imported images by up to 60 percent so they don’t take up as much space in your Domain file.

  • Problem importing a scanned image

    I am a new user to Elements 11 (previously having used Paint Shop Pro).  In many of the previous Elements and their tutorials says there is a Get Photos/Image not on Elements??  So I go File -> Import -> WIA Support.  This leads me to my HP printer/scanner (that is plugged in and works fine in Paintshop Pro OCR etc...).  Then I scan the photograph or image on the Flatbed.  It appears on Elements 11 ok.  BUT I cannot work on it??  Things like Layers just won't work.  You cannot rename the layer of this background.  Just about all the Menu options are greyed out??  In some other applications you have to let the application know that you have finished with the scanner.  I can't find anything like this.  I saved the image say as PNG/JPEG whatever and then opened the saved image still can't work on it?? I scanned to a file and then tried to work on that scanned and saved image.  Still can't manipulate the image.  It appears locked down or out??  Can anyone help me as a new user to Photoshop Elements (never used it before).  Have gone straight to Elements 11.  Many thanks

    Hi
    This didn’t work but the image was a printed page IE black and white.  If I go Image -> Greyscale then everything swings back into life.  If I scanned a colour image via the Scanner I might need to use the 8/16 bit image.  My problem at the moment is finding everything and how they work on Elements 11.  I have looked at the video tutorials but they are not all on Elements 11 many are older versions.  Is there a good User Guide to purchase written by any indepentant authors publishers?
    But thanks for your prompt and helpful reply.
    Regards

  • Aperture. Imported libraries, edited images corrupted!

    All existing libraries (old and newer) imported into this latest version of Aperture appear corrupted - not all the images, only the ones round-tripped through photoshop and back. The images show up either as a blanket of messed up coloured lines (garbage) or a black screen with "image format not supported" error. All these images were originally imported in aperture and round-tripped back into aperture - Never touched by any other software and saved in .psd format.
    Has anyone else run into this? Any thoughts would be much appreciated as I have hundreds of hours of editing tied up in the editing of these images and now they are all messed up! Older versions of aperture had no issues like this!
    Please see attached screen grab
    Thanks!
    ~Cliff

    A lot more than 10% for me unfortunately! The masters seem fine! I had just archived a bunch from my laptop a little while ago and thought that I could then transfer them to my mini easily - well one of Aperture's famous updates screwed that idea up!
    Yeah I too am in the process of trying to re-edit etc. and save some of them. But soo much time already invested. I had one project, among so many, with over 200 pictures heavily edited for a particularly artsy project and not a single one renders properly! And worse, I posted tiny copies of them so people could review and now those that want them want what they saw - So now have to try and duplicate those exact edits! This program is getting far to useless!
    Aperture WAS a good idea but it's costing me much than the organizational help it provides!
    Sorry for the rant, hope you get your stuff sorted out!! And thanks for the thumbnail suggestion, tried that too!

  • Problems exporting an edited image to iMovie

    When I edit an image, and then export it to use in Imove, all of the stacked versions go into Imovie.  How do I solve this problem. (I have 'unstacked' the versions in Aperture.

    What you say is happening is hard to follow. If you export a version from Aperture a single file of the  type spesified in the export ipreset s created from the version, JPG, TIFF, whatever.
    When exporting a version stacks have no bearing on the outcome. A version can be part of a stack but when exported (unless the stack was selected) only that one version is made into an external file.
    So  what format and export preset are you using? When the image is exported and you look at the file with preview before you import that file into iMovie what do you see?
    How are you actually doing the export? Léonie asked you  but your answer was vague. You wrote back that you were exporting the version as described but Léonie described three different ways to export.
    If you could respond to these questions we might be able to clear up the problem.

  • Problems importing Photoshop docs

    Hello-
    Hopefully someone can help me with this: My Phooshop docs are importing without an alpha channel (I.e.: all transparancy turns to white).
    I don't recall having this problem before; but then again, this wouldn't be the first time that I stepped away from a program for a couple of days, only to return having forgotten acres of technique.
    Thanks In Advance.

  • Problems importing keywords with image

    I have exported keywords from another program (IMatch) to both embedded iptc and xmp files. The problem is that I can't get LR to assign the keywords to the pictures when importing, or when trying the "import meta from xmp file" option. I have tried with both jpeg- and cr2-files (cr2 is raw from EOS 20D). The strange thing is that all keywords assigned to the pictures shows up to the left in the keywords panel, so LR somehow reads the keywords from the files and knows about the existence of these keywords, but, as I said, does not assign the keywords to the keywords field of the respective images. The keywords show up perfectly fine in Adobe Bridge.

    Can't say, as I don't have Aperture installed- actually did, but trial ran out- to test definitively.
    <br />
    <br />Either someone with same experience will come along and say, or you could try a small controlled experiment to see if perhaps you didn't select All photos on importing the xmp file, etc.

  • Problems importing and editing audio in Captivate 4

    Hello.
    I'm using Captivate 4, and am currently working on a video about 83MB in size.
    As I am importing audio (in mp3 format), I'm noticing that Captivate is cutting off my audio files, and garbling them up.  What I end up getting is something akin to scratching records for a narrative.
    I saw that there were other people who mentioned similar problems for Captivate 5, but I can't seem to find any existing posts about this problem for Captivate 4.
    Would someone please point me in the right direction, or give me some suggestions as to how to fix this problem?
    Thanks,
    Ottawagirl05

    Welcome to our community
    First off, while you say you are using Captivate 4 trial, hopefully you are aware that you may not actually purchase that version. Adobe now offers version 5.5 and if you choose to purchase, that's the version you will get. (Unless, of course, you are purchasing the older version from a software reseller. I guess that's possible)
    At any rate, the trial is fully functional. Nothing (other than time to use it) is restricted.
    I do suppose that you might be missing a patch that would possibly address an issue.
    Cheers... Rick
