PS CS5 importing images issue!

Hi folks,
i got a problem with ps cs5.
I opened an 300 DPI A5 document and started to design it out.
After some time i wanted to import some of my .png files into the composition.
But then it happend, Photoshop boosted the size up of my image... its an 72DPI PNG and the old
PS CS4 used to resize it correctly and I just could start to work with the original size of that image.
for now I am very unhappy about this issue because I have to resize all those images again by hand.
That means I lose quality and it takes a lot of time.
Would be great if someone could tell me if I can workaround that problem somehow.
thank you!
Pete

I can only imagine that Adobe got feature suggestions from people claiming that when they placed their different images together they would rather have automatic resizing per the ppi value, and not hearing praise from people like you just expecting a pixel to remain a pixel, they changed it without an option to keep it the old way. I had high hopes that that checkbox in preferences would get you the older functionality back, but alas it isn't so.
What is that [ ] Resize Image During Place checkbox supposed to do anyway, if not this? A quick glance Help doesn't turn up much on this setting. Maybe it's buried in there somewhere, but it's not popping out.
I even tried placing images using all the combinations of modifyer keys I could think of. That would have been a nice touch, but nope, it didn't work.
A while back I started a thread in which I ended up actually catching some flak for asking that every change in user functionality be accompanied by a setting that allowed users to have things the old way if they desired. This kind of situation is exactly what I had in mind, but people apparently have trouble thinking at this level.

PDF import images issue

My question is, I am importing a 23-page PDF with 26 images
in it. After importing into RH7, the image files are created, but
most are just gray rectangles with white dotted lines around them.
Did I import incorrctly? Is this a known bug?
Thank you.

Fireworks cs5 slicing images issue

when i go to export images only to be sliced and i have those images selected, and i press "export," nothing. nothing appears in my folder as it would with photoshop. why can i not export images only? i've tried every possible setting in the export dialog box, and maybe it isn't exporting any of my selected slices!

Well I'm glad you're having fun.
You have multiple overlapping slices, some of which are only one pixel in size. Slices should not overlap. It causes nothing but problems. That, tied in with the fact that you have one huge slice covering all your other slices, is what's causing the issue. Remove (not hide - remove) overlapping slices or edit the existing slices so they do not overlap.
When I did this and exported the files, I was successful.

I got the same problem. I tried to import into Flash cs3, cs4, cs5 - constant error in each application.
But seems I've found the reason why this happened in my case.
I just deleted the installed system video codecs (divx, xvid, third-party codecs).
I do not see a direct connection with the import objects into flash. But fact, immediately after the removal of codecs it has to work.
I suspect that the reason could be a third-party codec that is associated with playing QuickTime. Maybe.
Also if it does not help you this way, I used a temporary solution.
Open the psd in Adobe Ilustrator, copy images to clipboard, paste it into flash.
In my case the images are not displayed on the screen after insert, but put into the library.
Don't touch objects, just save the file, close the Flash.
Launch Flash and open saved file. In my case in the first run was an error.
Close the application and open it with file again.
The second time the error was not followed, the images were within the document 8-)
This option made it possible to work until the issue is not solved completely (adobe, wake up!).
win7 64, cs5 (cs3, cs4 had the same issue)
Perhaps it can be useful for someone.
thx

Importing images into Premiere Pro CS5

Hi all. I have a problem that has just occurred. In an HDV project in CS5 Premirer Pro, I am importing images from a source file into the project window and then onto the timeline. These are separate jpg images, each one with a different filename albeit the first three letters of the filename are the same. When the images are imported, although the filenames are as they appear in the source folder, the actual images are all identical - usually to the first image in the group. It makes no difference whether I import the images separately or as a group - the same problem persists. I have tried clearing the media cache and re-starting the computer. No use. Any ideas?
Many thanks, Ivan.

Open and resave the images in Photoshop. This rewrites the header info and usually solves the problem.

Image Capture: permissions issue on imported images...

Hello.
I've noticed that, when using Image Capture to import images from an iPhone, the resulting images that are imported are assigned the following permissions:
Owner (me) = Read & Write
Everyone Else = No Access
This causes an issue later in one of my worflows because a user other than myself is trying to access these images and can't (because they don't have permission). For example, I have a folder that I copy certain images to that I want displayed on my Apple TV (via iTunes). But, because of the "Everyone Else = No Access" permissions, the Apple TV is unable to displaying these images. Images from other sources (for example, copy from a point & shoot camera's SD card using Finder) have the correct permissions, so when copied to the images folder the Apple TV accesses, the Apple TV has no issues displaying these images.
I've tested this on two separate Macs running Mountain Lion (both running 10.2.8) and the same thing happens on both machines.
Anyone have any suggestions on fixing this on the Image Capture level? Currently, I've writen a script that fixes the permissions on import, but that's not a permanent fix.
Thanks,
Kristin.

I noticed after upgrading to Snow Leopard that images imported with Image Capture have "No Access" for Everyone. I used Image Capture a lot under Leopard and Everyone had "Read Only" or "Read & Write" permissions. Before and after the upgrade, I stored the images folders I created (with Image Capture) in a Shared/Pictures folder.
I couldn't find any answers on why the permissions are set this way by Image Capture with Snow Leopard. I found this article http://www.ehow.com/how_2314896_fix-permissions-mac-os-x.html which at least helped me change the permissions of all images in a given folder.
Seems one should not have to change the permissions after importing images....

I own Lightroom 4 and have updated the software however, I am unable to import images taken on the Sony A6000. I have also updated the raw converter and am still having this issue.

I own Lightroom 4 and have updated the software however, I am unable to import images taken on the Sony A6000. I have also updated the raw converter and am still having this issue.

You can either upgrade to Lightroom 5.4 or later, or use the free Adobe DNG Converter version 8.6 to convert your RAW photos to DNG, which then will import into Lightroom 4.

Lightroom - imported images corrupted

Hi,
I am using LR3.3 and have a Canon 7D. When importing my images, some are corrupt. I have ruled out my card reader as some images are still corrupted when imported directly from the camera. If I open the image from the SD card using PS CS5, the image is fine. SO this suggests the problem rests with LR. I have also tried importing the same images using LR2. Some images are corrupted following import, but not necessarily the same ones as in LR3. I have attached a copy of one corrupt image.
Could anyone suggest what the issue might be?
Regards,
Hugh

Hugh,
If you do a search in the forum, you will see that this issue comes up from time-to-time. It is nearly always a hardware issue. (I say "nearly" only to cover myself. ASAIK, it has always turned out to be hardware and not LR.) Some of the things it can be:
-memory card
-card reader
-USB connector or cable
-hard drive (even when it tests okay)
-memory (even when it tests okay)
You have to follow the entire pathway through to see where it fails, checking things one by one. Keep in mind that many software programs will only look at the embedded JPEG preview and it can be fine while the main image is corrupted. LR works in different ways than other software programs and can show problems that others have not seen (yet). Some hardware issues will show up in random ways as well.
Good luck in searching it out. Some of the many previous responses to this issue may provide additional suggestions.

After importing images from my card using LR 5.4, the GPS data does not show in the metadata panel. However, when I look at the imported images using Bridge, the GPS data is visible. Anybody know why LR is not seeing the GPS data? Camera is Canon 6D.

Ok, the issue seem to be solved. The problem was this:
The many hundred files (raw and xmp per image) have been downloaded by ftp in no specific order. Means - a couple of files in the download queue - both raw and xmps. Most of the time, the small xmp files have been finished loading first and hence the "last change date" of these xmp files was OLDER than the "last change date" of the raw file - Lightroom then seem to ignore the existence of the xmp file and does not read it during import.(a minute is enough to run into the problem)
By simply using the ftp client in a way that all large raw files get downloaded first followed by the xmp files, we achieved that all "last changed dates" of the xmp files are NEWER than the related raw files. (at least not older)
And then LR is reading them and all metadata information has been set / read correctly.
So this is solved.

Importing images with Lightroom 2 & Camera RAW 4.5

The following query has been raised with Adobe Technical Support (5 days ago and I am still waiting for a response/reply. They claim to reply within 24 hours but they have not on this occasion......they seem to be ignoring me
Perhaps a fellow user can help to identify or resolve the problem.
Operating System:
Windows XP Professional (Service Pack 3)
Software:
Adobe Design Premium CS3 (10.0.1); Photoshop Lightroom 1.4 (which was working fine) and Lightroom 2 (on trial and not working particularly well)
I am using a trial download of Photoshop Lightroom 2 (with Camera RAW 4.5 in Photoshop CS3).
I am having a few problems with editing Lightroom 2 images in Photoshop CS3 but I understand that Adobe is currently investigating a solution to this problem.
I have also noticed another potential problem since I have started to import images from a computer drive to Lightroom 2 and converting the Manufacturers RAW files to DNG (with the option to leave the files at their current location/drive).
My RAW and JPEG files open ok in Camera RAW (v 4.5) for basic editing and subsequently to Photoshop for more detailed work. The problem is that all my images are now opening as Smart Objects by default in Photoshop CS3, as opposed to opening as a Background layer". (I have not knowingly opted to use the Open as Smart Object option.
I am not entirely sure how this came about but I have also lost the capacity to edit images with empty Levels adjustment layers or percentage (%) grey fill option).
I am able to highlight the respective layer and create the empty Levels adjustment layer, change the blend mode to either Multiply or Screen, fill the Layer Mask with Black (Alt & backspace), change the opacity level as desired, select the brush tool and change the foreground colour to white to enable the applicable Dodge or Burn processes.
Unfortunately, it does not function irrespective of the preferred opacity level. The Dodge or Burn feature is static with no effect on the image.
I cannot recall any settings to open all files as Smart Objects in Photoshop CS3 but would welcome some help in identifying such a setting if it exists. Alternatively, I would welcome any other suggested methods of correcting the above difficulties.
The same difficulties are evident when I try to use the Dodge or Burn features via the Edit and Fill option with a percentage of Grey and the Overlay Blend Mode.
The "Common Denominator" of the above difficulties appear to be Lightroom 2 and Camera RAW 4.5 (individually and or collectively) and now I am stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Are any other users experiencing similar issues or have any suggestions about how I might correct or resolve these problems? ......
I am not afraid of hearing or accepting that the "Dummy Factor" has played some part or how I may release myself from the said "Dummy Factor".....any help is welcome help.
Adobe Technical Support seems to be ignoring me......I wonder why?
Regards
Bob Wallace

Essentially you are wrapping the raw image data into a special type of layer, a "smart object". You can then revisit and fine tune the Camera Raw conversion as often as you want and take advantage of working directly on the raw data in its pre-Photoshop purity. You can also apply to this smart object layer a number of Photoshop adjustments and filters - and again redo and fine tune them as often as you wish.
You'll find them explained in a number of recent books. I know Scott Kelby is keen on them, there are examples on Russell Brown's site, and my own book last year on B&W strongly advocated their use.
Have a play.

Iphoto unable to import images from card or from desktop

A recent update to the operating system for my imac with Maverick has rendered my iphoto incapable of importing images, creates a mirror shift of the frontpage as it is opened up and requires a long time for iphoto to open. When I try to import a photo from the desktop or from a card the program spins into dysfunction and I am forced to force quit. Program functionality seems to be impaired as I look for images, select, etc. Permissions verified and fixed in Utility disk. Restart computer several times.....I would be grateful for assistance. Kind regards to the community.....HP

Well that suggests the issue is with the main Library. So
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

When importing images into LR5 on my laptop, the photos all have a wide yellow streak through them. This only happens on the laptop; I can import the images onto my desktop LR and there isn't the streak of colour. Can someone help?

When importing images into LR5 on my laptop, the photos all have a wide yellow streak through them. This only happens on the laptop; I can import the images onto my desktop LR and there isn't the streak of colour. Can someone help?
This is happening even with photos that were taken on another camera, not just mine. My daughter told me that the laptop recently fell. The yellow streak is not anywhere else on the laptop, just on the photos in LR.

I have had this problem on my desktop. I have been attempting to reproduce it where it can be debugged. Here are some observations/facts in my environment--no conclusions:
1. I do not import from camera or memory stick directly into LR. I copy all images (using Explorer) from camera to two different locations (backup location first); and then my working area. In both cases, after files are copied I mark them Read-only.
2. Poor observation, but in any event: the issue has only occurred when I do a large number of images. Its a poor observation as I have no exact number. I suspect when I do less than 50 always works well every time. However, I have also done some very large imports without issue.
3. Error only occurs with my RAW images--for me that's NEF. I have multiple cameras--those that only capture jpg images have never had an issue in LR.
4. Even if the file is marked Read Only issues can still occur. I then remove the image from the disk using LR -- and then manually (Explorer) copy in my backup image -- re import again and all is well. I think one time I exited LR and replaced the bad file with a backup and restarted LR and all was well again.
5. When it occurs I have performed a HASH value on the broken file and on the backed up file to determine if the file contents has changed--and each time the file contents has changed.
6. I have had this occur immediately after import, but most often it occurs like this... import large number of images; Make changes in Development Module on random image, export jpg of changes--exit LR. Open up LR and file is corrupted.
7. I have had this issue on multiple USB drives ( okay just 2 different drives have been tested ).
What next--fire up Process Monitor and monitor the system (specifically LR) to see if it reports any file open for write access when this occurs. So, far I have not had process monitor actually running when it occurs--one of these days.

Unable to import images to iMovie, or copy and paste images.

As the title states, I am unable to import images from either iPhoto, the iMovie photo selector, or finder. Furthermore I cannot copy the rest of my timelapse from a second project into the origional, it just pastes one image in a different size and quality many times over. I was able to make a time lapse not more than five days ago before the update, so what gives? I am very frustrated. Everything is slow, it eats up all of my ram, and will freeze when I attempt to import images. I have all the updates, new retina pro, reinstalled iMovie; all the basic steps.. These are all images from a GoPro camera, and the first timelapse used all of the same files, I know it isn't a .jpeg problem or anything like that. So far it seems like a complete software failure and it is beyond my hands now but I would greatly appreciate some input.
Thanks.
Jake.

So if you select a protion of a clip, it gets outlined in yellow, and then when you mouse over it the cursor should be a little hand icon.
If you're not seeing that, you've got a problem.
Do you have another user account on your computer so you can try to see if you have the same issues? Maybe even create a new one for testing purposes.
Are you near an Apple Store you could drop by?
I'm not sure what else to suggest.

Imported image sequence in PP CC 2014 causes animated layers to flicker

I have a project which has a primary layer formed of imported JPGs that are in sequence. These are shots from a time lapse and are sequentially named and imported without issue into Premier Pro. I then have a secondary layer with a simple After Effects composition that comprises a slow fade and animation of some title text. The problem I have is that during playback in PP (or once rendered) the animation of the text in the AA layer flickers. Watching it frame by frame in the preview window it is slowly fading in but each alternate frame it's opacity seems to go back one frame before advancing.
Now I can completely fix this by exporting the image sequence clip in my bin to a video file. If I then replace the image sequence with a video made using exactly the same images it works fine and the animation is perfectly smooth. My question is why does PP not treat the imported image sequence the same as a video with its interaction with other layers?

Hi there.
Looking at the footage, you are exporting at 24P. There are books written on 24P and how to shoot (or edit) for it. What I see as a possible mistake.
You are moving the photo too fast across the screen. That could be the same as panning too fast in 24P. Same result. The video clips are moving much slower and don't show the staggering.
Give it a try.
