Program changes .jpeg to .tiff

My Photoshop Starter 3.0 changes images taken in jpeg into .tiff when downloading from the camera.
It only does this with my new Canon Powershot A470, not the old Olympus D-390.
Is there a way to stop this????
Thanks!

There's no setting to change file formats for download, but cameras are capable of capturing and storing files in either JPEG or TIF; my guess is that you are capturing the original file as a TIF on that camera.

  • Change jpeg to tiff

    I am a new lightroom user. I have a catalog of 2600 images that are jpeg files. I would like to change to file type tiff.
    What would be the best method to get things changed?  THANKS for any suggestions.

    Geoff,
    the OP is talking about converting the thick end of 3000 jpegs into tiffs, and that's fairly pointless.
    It'd only make any sense (and even then not a lot) if he intends to do multiple edits/saves on the files in a non-destructive way: but if he wants that tiff benefit, the files really should be tiffs from the start - all the advantages of 16 bits' worth of data are already gone, and any "damage" to the files caused by jpeg compression will be "baked in".
    He's thrown the baby out with the bathwater if he's going from jpeg to tiff to - eventually - go back to jpeg.
    As an aside, I'd use the batch conversion function in Irfanview to do the job.

  • Photoshop Album Started changes .jpeg into .tiff

    I use Photoshop Album Starter 3.0 and have been very happy with it when using my Olympus Camera. I recently purchased a new Canon Powershot A470, and when downloading images from the camera, Photoshop Album changes a .jpeg into a .tiff.
    How do I tell the program not to do this?
    Thanks!!!

  • How does ACR save edited JPEG and TIFF files?

    When a JPEG or TIFF file is edited in ACR, are the edits destructive when you click the "Done" button, permanently changing the file? Or is the edit info saved in sidecar files like with edited RAW files, not affecting the original file?
    If I reopen a previously edited JPEG file in ACR, will the adjustment settings be the same as where I left off, allowing me to change those edits, like a crop or HSL adjustment? Thanks.

    First: There is a Camera RAW Forum.
    http://forums.adobe.com/community/cameraraw
    Second: It should be fairly simple to test your hypotheses.
    And on my station at least it appears the data is stored in the file and not as a sidecar-file.

  • Open Jpeg and tiff in ACR as a choice

    It would be nice to be able in choosing wether to open jpeg and tiff in ACR using right mouse click menu. AFAIK now you only can set preferences to open these files always in ACR or never.

  • Jpeg to tiff - is this possible?

    Is it possible to convert a jpeg file to a tiff file
    in Aperture or any other program?
    debcoo

    Converting a jpeg to tiff sees no loss in image quality from the process as there is no compression involved in the creation of a tiff file, ie. it is uncompressed. Going to jpeg there is compression of varying degrees and therefore a loss of information.
    The real issue with the lossy compression files types, depending on how much compression is applied, is not so much the first time they are created, but rather every time you re-save a jpeg as a jpeg you throw away more information.
    It is easy to work out what size a files should be, eg 2000x3000pixels=6000pixels total, x3(RGB)=18,000(KB) or 18MB, using this allows you to get a feel for the amount of compression applied, this file saved as a tiff will be 18mb, from here you can see how much info you have lost.
    enough rambling

  • I wish to export several still images from iMovie as JPEG or TIFF. Is it possible to do this using iMovie, if so how? Any advice is greatly appreciated. I've already managed to add a freeze frame to extract the desired frame but I can't export it. Thanks.

    Ach... I found a solution thanks to previous posts which came to light after I'd posted what was obviously a question that had been asked before.

  • How do you assign program changes to external controllers in mainstage 1

    i would like to use 6 specific buttons on my controller to toggle between patches
    i know how to scroll through patches using my controller by assinging the next and previous patch functions to 2 buttons on my controller
    however what i want is to just be able to push button 1 and go to my gladiator AU synth, then push button 3 to go to my sylenth AU synth. basically i want to be able to change in real time on the spot, spontaniously without premeditation or having scroll between multiple patches to get to the one i want to use.
    in the previous posts it says
    on the patch list select the instument
    in the patch inspector go to attributes
    select program change, then assign it a number
    then assign a midi controller button to trigger that program change number
    i can do everything except the last part
    how do you assign a program change to a controller button? i cant see anywhere how to do this,
    i am using mainstage 1.0.2 thank you so much for any support you can give me

    I am not sure about that. Do you mean that all I have to do is provide the interface <cc:attribute name="value" type="lvl1.lvl2.someClass"/> and when I run the method, the returned result will be written into the expression provided in "value"?

  • I bougth the sf2 program change for garagaband, but what is it exactly and how do I make it work?

    I couldn't find out what exactly the sf2 program change is, but it seemed nice, so I bought it, hoping that it would explain itself when installed. It hasn't. I did hope that it would give me some more midi instruments, and it seems like it should, but how to get them into garaband (10.0.2)?
    This thread seems to explain it: How to do use Soundfonts (.sf2 files) in GarageBand 10?
    It says I can add "audio unit plugins" to a track. Now I don't know what an audio unit plugin is, but I assume that it is a confusing word for a sound, and that it refers specifically to the sf2 sounds. I got as far as the smart control inspector but then "Click an empty part of the Audio Units area, choose Audio Units, then choose a plug-in from the submenu." What is the audion units area? I have clicked the empty part of whatever I could find here, but there is no submenu anywhere.
    Is there anybody out there who could give a really basic explanation of what it is that I have purchased and how I can make it work? I would really apreciate it.
    Ahston

    I got a bit further. I found the submenu and I am able to load a default instrument. But I cannot change that instrument to any other.

  • How to make GB respond to a program change

    I'm using m-audio keystation 49e and I can get all the different instruments but I can't get Garagebend to recognize the instrument I'm playing, the musical typing function and the playback play it as #0 acoustic piano. I was messing around with it and may have accidentally pressed a button to make it work because I've got one track with timpanis that is working fine.

    I'm not sure I understand what you're asking - but GarageBand doesn't know about program changes. It's one track, one instrument. And it doesn't know what instrument you want it to play unless you select one.

  • Sending Program Changes to external MIDI device

    Just getting started with MainStage, so excuse the basic question . . .
    I'd like to use MainStage with two main pieces of hardware – an Elektron Monomachine acting as the master clock and sequencer, and a Machinedrum, which is slaved to the Monomachine. I'm running MainStage to use a soft synth or two sequenced from the Monomachine, and for effects. So far so good.
    Patterns on the Machinedrum are selected externally with MIDI Program Changes. Conversely, when you select patterns on the Monomachine, it sends out a Program Change message so that you can lock the two machines together pattern-wise.
    In Layout mode, I drop in a rotary knob, hit the Learn button and change patterns three times on the Monomachine; the knob says Program Change and the number of the Program (all correct).
    Next, in the Patch editor, I map that screen control to Machinedrum > MIDI Controller > Program Change. If I turn the knob using the mouse, it changes the Program (pattern) on the Machinedrum (all correct).
    BUT . . . now (in either Edit or Perform mode) when I change the pattern on the Monomachine (sending a Program Change message), the knob doesn't move. I see the Program Change message being received by MainStage in the MIDI monitor, but it doesn't get routed to the screen control.
    What could I be doing wrong? Why does it respond correctly in Learn mode, but then not in Edit or Perform mode?

    Hi
    Could it be that MS thinks the incoming PC messages are intended to change MS patches?
    In Edit mode, select the Concert in the Patch list, and change the Program Change Device/channel etc in the Attributes Inspector to something other than the Mono

  • Can't make a selection of my pathes even if i have set a program change number for each one.Why is that happening?

    Hi everybody!
    I send program change messages from my midi controller and the messages are accepted by mainstage 3 as shown in the midi message window,but i can't make a selection of my pathes even if i have set a program change number for each patch.Why is that happening?
    I use a novation SL mki or a KORG Triton Le or a m-audio axiom 49 as midi controllers.The program change messages are transmitted by all the devices i mentioned above and shown as received in the midi messages window of mainstage 3.
    Has anyone the same experience?

    Hi
    Have you selected the correct device as the Program Change device and MIDI channel in the Concert Inspector?

  • Can I automate the writing of XMP metadata into JPEG and TIFF files?

    I have written an ASP.NET 3.5 website application on behalf of an annual international photographic competition. Entrants will be uploading digital photos in either JPEG or TIFF format. Ideally, I would write entrant identity and image title information into the XMP metadata for each image immediately after upload - but so far, I have failed to find any way to do this in ASP.NET.
    Thousands of images are involved, so I need to find a way to automate the metadata insertion, perhaps with some sort of script that uses a text file (extracted from the SQL Server database on my website) as the source of the metadata for a batch of images. Is this the sort of task that can be done by writing a script for Bridge CS3? Are there any scripts already in existence that I could use? I am a total beginner in this area.
    I use a Win XP PC, though I have a colleague who, I think, has CS3 on his Mac (running under the Leopard OS), so scripts for either platform might be usable.

  • I use images for presentations. Recently I've noticed a decrease in quality ( sharpness and definition) of pictures copied into Keynote. Same problem with both JPEGs and TIFF files. I've recently upgraded to keynote 09, but with no improvement.

    I use images of paintings for presentations. Over the last 3 months or so I've noticed that I cannt copy images (either JPEg or TIFF) without a reduction in sharpness and definition. Hope someone can help with this problem.

    Figured it out myself! yay!  (only took my entire moring)
    The solution:
    Dont print to PDF!
    SAVE AS COPY, then select Adobe PDF and click SAVE, this will bring up a dialog box with the options you need (including the "High Quality Print" Adobe PDF Preset)
    This was not clear in any of the instructions i read
