PS CS6 files are now inflated by 1.4 MB

I'm using PS CS6 (13.0.1) 64 bit with Windows 7. I noticed recently that new files created in PS are inflated by almost 1.4 MB. For Example:
I Go to File> New> Width 100 pixels, Height 100 pixels, RGB, 8 bit, Color Profile sRGB
It tells me the 'Image Size' is 29.3 KB. Click OK and save the file as a JPEG or TIFF and the files size is slightly over 1.4 MB. I checked the file for metadata in Bridge, but don't see anything that could account for the additional 1.4 MB. I opened a JPEG image with XnView and saved the file with 'Keep IPTC Data' unchecked and the file size dropped to 12 KB. On examining the metadata in Bridge or EXIF Tool GUI there are no IPTC data entries in the original PS file.
What's interesting is if I Import the same 1.4 MB+ file into Lightroom 4.4 and Export it full-size the file size also drops to 16 KB. This indicates to me that there is 1.4 MB of data being added to 'New Files' created inside PS that is not seen or used by Lightroom 4.4.
I realize I can use 'Save For Web' to reduce the file size by removing metadata, but I'd like to identify what is causing the the additional 1.4 MB.
I'm inserting a 1.4 MB+ 100x100 pixel JPEG file here, but not sure if the orignal metadata or file-size will be retained:

Very bizarre!
That ridiculously tiny 100 x 100 pizel square is indeed 1.4 MB.
How did you generate it and save it?   Did you just append the .jpg extension to its name?
A true head scratcher.
Here's some of the metadata:

TS3981 After migration files are now shared between two user accounts. How can I combine them into one account?

After migration, from PC, files are now shared between two user accounts.I have to switch users to access files. How can I combine them into one account?

See Pondini's Transferring files from one User Account to another, for starters

I select the images I want uploaded, NEF files, click the "IMPORT" button, process bar comes up and shows work in progress, but no progress. after about 2 minutes, dialogue box appears with message: "unable to import because the following files are unreadable: NEFxxxx, etc."

New user- all my files are now read only -

I am using a Dell Inspiron 8600 laptop with Windows XP and my husband has a Dell Dimesion 4600 desktop. Two weeks ago I installed a Linksys Compact Wireless-G USB adapter on his computer and then installed a WRT54G v.6 wireless router. All is working fine for internet connection. Today I discovered all my files are now read only and even when I uncheck the read only box and click apply, then close the file, on re-opening it it is again read only. Even the files on my external hard drive are now read only.
I am backtracking to see where a change was made that was unintended and the wireless router was the last thing I installed. Is there a connection? And if so, can someone help me make the necessary changes or tell me where to find out?
I read through a lot of messages but did not immediately see this situation addressed.
Sandra

seems to be an OS issue , because there is nothing on the router setting that could change the configuration on the computer....try System Restore....can't think of anything else at this point...

Old Quark files are now Unix Executable Files

I made hundreds of archive CD's with Mac's running OS 9 back in 1990's. They contain Quark files and .tif's. I've referred back to these CD's many many times over the years with no problems. My new iMac has the intel processor. I pop an archive CD in and all the files (with no extensions like "tif" or ".qkd" or ".eps") are now "Unix Executable Files" that won't open.
I simply add an extension to the images files (like ".tif") and they work. HOWEVER, it's not so easy with the Quark files. I add ".qkd" to the file name and it still remains a Unix file.
I launch Quark and try to open the file through the finder and it doesn't work. I took an archive CD to a friends house whose on a G5 and the CD worked properly with no extensions needed to be added.
So I figure the problem is with the Intel/PC based processor. I shouldn't have sold my old G5.
One forum claimed that a program called "File Buddy" did the trick for him. Does anyone have any other ideas other than me buying a non-Intel Mac.
I love our new iMacs but I need these archive CD's to work!
Thanks

I automatically run OnyX once a week for maintenance, but it didn't help this situation.
Those chores won't reset the LaunchServices database. Go to the Maintenance heading and click on the Reset tab. Turn on the check box for "LaunchServices database" (all other check boxes off). Click the Reset radio button and then Execute. Restart your Mac.
OS X will automatically rebuild the database according to the applications on your hard drive, giving preference to Apple applications as they would be when you first install OS X. So if you have the Acrobat Reader set up to open PDF files, you'll have to do that again as they will be set back to Preview.
Actually it's .qxd not .qkd for Quark XPress file extensions.
That's it! I knew .qkd was wrong, but Quark 6.x won't show you the old extensions when you save a file, and I couldn't remember it (been using InDesign steadily for a while now).

Photoshop CS6 files are compatable with CC files

My college is using photoshop CS6 and I have installed photoshop CC. I was told that files are not compatable between the two.

Standard Photoshop PSD files can be backwards compatible (with the caveats mentioned) – here is a test of saving back from CC to CS6 & CS5:
http://davecrossworkshops.com/2013/05/10/moving-files-backwards-photoshop-cc
There are also some practices you can use to increase compatibility between versions, not just for Photoshop but for all the Adobe CC apps.

Backup files are now Unix Executable files

I backed up my iPhone on my laptop (pc) but when i but transferred all my iPhone backup files to my iMac there was a couple of folders that are now Unix Executable files which are coincidentally are the same backups that I cant use to restore my iPhone without receiving an error message.
Also, is there a program that I can use to read the history.mapsdata file? Thanks

.mov files are now renamed

Why are my .mov files suddenly getting renamed when I add them to Keynote? They used to retain their original names. Very confusing now.

That's a well documented limitation of JavaFX. Mov files are simply not supported.

You should vote for the corresponding JIRA entries.
Maybe it helps.

Files are now organized how? Under O/S 4!!!!!!! Alpha, Numeric, Roulette?

Under O/S 3 Files were organized by name, in alphabetical order, or that certainly seemed to the way it was done. Now on 0/S 4 there is no rhyme or reason in the way files are organized, what the ?l l e h lol
null

What files? Where?
Are you referring to an App? Or something else?

Image files are now empty

I never had a problem with Skype receiving images until recently.
A few weeks ago I was no longer able to open images that were sent to me. The thumbnail would appear but when I would click on it I could not view the full image because the size would be zero. Even when trying to save the image, it would save it with a file size of zero and I wouldn't be able to open it.
I checked my version and noticed there was an update so I updated to the latest version. That worked as I was then able to view and save images again ..... until today.
I am now experiencing the exact same issue again. Thumbnails are appearing but I cannot view or save the full image because the size is zero.
My versions are:
Internet Explorer 10 version 10.0.9200.17183
Skype version 7.1.0.105
Windows 8 64 Bit
Any idea what is causing this?
Solved!

Win2008/Vista/2003/XP can't install IE11, so need use Skype 7.1 and always need get url at Skype web storage.
Skype 7.2 doesn't require IE 11 on older OSs. You just need to update to the latest/last IE for that particular OS ( IE8 or IE9 ). I've tested Skype 7.2 on Windows XP ( IE8 ) and Vista ( IE9 ) and I did not run into any issues with image files.

Can I continue to edit in LR after exporting an image under edit. i see that my PSD file are now only JPG

Newbie at using LR. I tried my hand a first of images. I firgured out how to export to JPG but then found that in my LR I no longer had PSD file and all my editing Histroy was gone. I could see the JPG files.
Is there a way to print out (to JPG) incremental changes but still continue to work on the images?
Thnx

...I exported to JPG in my Hard disk. Unitl this point I could see all the edits I made in History and the actual photo showed as a PSD file. After doing the export, when I look at the history it is empty. and the file now shows as a JPG. This means that I cannot build on the previous edits.
Because you're new to Lightroom you might not have noticed that the selected image changed when you exported. But more than that, the selected image source in the catalog changed. In the Library module, I'm sure that when you were editing your PSD file, the folder it was in was selected. But after you do an export, that changes so that it says Previous Export shows in the Catalog panel on the left, and the only contents of the Previous Export is the one JPG, so that's all you can see right now. But if you were to go back and re-select the folder on the left with the PSD in it, you'd see your PSD again. And when you select the PSD, all the edits will be there.
So nothing is lost, it's just that you're now looking at a view that contains only the exported file.
If you exported the JPG to the same folder as the original, you can choose Library > Go to Folder in Library and you'll be back there with both the original and the JPG listed. There are other ways to get back to the preview source like the left Back arrow at the top of the Filmstrip if you have that open.

My Outlook Data Files Are Now .OST - How Do I Backup & Recover Local Contacts (I'm using Office 365 Home Premium)?

I recently upgraded to Office 365 Home Premium and at the same time changed my email protocol from POP3 to IMAP4.
I've now noticed that my Outlook data files stored at C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook are in .ost format.
I use the Calendar in my Microsoft Account as my main Calendar but I store some of my Contacts locally - which .ost file will they be held in and how can I recover them if anything goes wrong?

Hi,
A simple way to know which data file the Contacts are stored in, is to right click on the Contacts folder, click
Properties. Under General tab, find the
Location of it.
We can export the contacts to a .pst file to back up them, for the detailed steps, please refer to this link below and read the information under
Export contacts to an Outlook .pst file:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/outlook-help/import-contacts-HA102919678.aspx
If the data file is corrupted and you need to recover the data, we can choose Scanpst.exe from Microsoft:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/272227
In addition, if the email account you are using is an Microsoft Account, I suggest you choose Exchange ActiveSync instead of IMAP. Thus all the contacts are synced between your Outlook Client and the server, Calendars of the account will automatically be
added into Outlook, you don't have to add the calendars separately:
Add an Outlook.com or other Exchange ActiveSync mail account to Outlook
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/add-an-outlook-com-or-other-exchange-activesync-mail-account-HA104025313.aspx
If I misunderstood anything, please feel free to let me know and correct me.
Thanks,
Melon Chen

My Windows built AE CS6 file is now saying that it is an incompatable MAC version 13 file - can I recover?

I am running AE CS6 on a Windows 7 pc. I ran it on the work lab MAC system running CC. Now my machine will not open the file. I have done this before and it worked without a hitch. Can I recover the file?

Thanks... I was on a deadline for this AM so last night I actually downloaded the trial version of CC and made the "save as". WORKED!!

Video Sharing - Videos upload issue to Vimeo because files are now too large post iOS7.

Videos taken prior to iOS7 update uploaded without issues to Vimeo. Vidoes taken after iOS7 update will not upload because videos are too large. I am videoing the same type of activities for the same duration post iOS7 as I was pre-iOS7. What has changed with iOS7 that is causing my videos to be saved as larger files? This is a HUGE issue for what I do! HELP PLEASE!!

You're going to have to edit them on a computer before uploading them, unless you can convince Vimeo to change their limits.

My MPEG4 videos files are now audio only files

I updated to the newest version of Quicktime. Now, when I launch an MPEG4 video, all I get is the audio. The video is gone. What's going on here? I need these files to go back to the way they were. What can I do????????? HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

I have to say that I am a bit disappointed that no ONE person answered this post. I mean; it's not like I switched to Windows LOL.
Anyway, I found a fix for my problem from another post. If this helps you, please thread this message saying it helped you too. This is what I read from another post:
I fixed this issue on a MacBook by swapping out the mp4 component for an earlier version.
You can find it in /System/Library/Quicktime/
I advise backing up the original (later version 7.4.1), this is just good practice.
For those of you who don't have an older version kicking about on another Mac, download it here:
