PSD file import: always the same layers no matter what psd file

So, another problem has just popped up! Picture is, I imported a psd file into ae and made a cool vid out of it, which is all well and good. However, I decided to do a new one and as I imported the NEW psd file (as in COMPLETELY new, different file name with different drawings, different layer names etc) into ae... surprise surprise! The OLD psd file is displayed in the ae screen (???) It says it has imported my new psd file, but the layers and images displayed are from the old one (which, as I said, has nothing to do with the new one, except in matching canvas size).
Thanks!

How did you import and what exactly are you viewing? The source view? The comp view? The timeline layer view? Did you use "File --> Replace Footage"? Naturally, unless you actually replaced the elements, the latter two will keep showing your original PSD as they are referenced by the original project. Otherwise the source view should correctly reflect your new document. That aside I seem to vaguely rember an issue with this in some older version of AE (something with AE misinterpreting paths for identically named layers in different files), but since you did not make any mention of your AE version nor platform, operating system or hardware, it will be impossible for anyone to be more specific....

  • Podcasts are "stuck"; keep getting the same podcasts no matter what

    Greetings,
    Gee, it seems the only problem I ever have with my iPhone is syncing. And it's started again.
    I have subscriptions to about 30 podcasts, about half of those are checked to sync with my iPhone. About a week or so ago, I would listen to a podcast but when I synced with iTunes it would get marked as "new" again, reset, and stay on the iPhone. If I manually deleted it on the iPhone, the next sync would copy it back.
    I've have this kind of problem in the past and it eventually just corrected itself, so I've just ignored the problem for several days.
    Now it's gotten completely stuck. Trying to get the iPhone and iTunes to "re-sync" I turned off several podcasts in Podcast tab of iTunes and synced. Nothing happened. The podcasts are still on the iPhone. So I manually deleted from the iPhone and synced again. iTunes copied the disabled and deleted podcast bask to the iPhone!
    So I tried to get radical. I reset and restored my iPhone from backup. Turned off all podcast syncing. All of the podcasts were still on the iPhone. I then turned podcast syncing back on, but unchecked every one of my regular podcasts and then check one, and only one, podcast that I normally never listen to on the iPhone. I then manually deleted +every single podcast+ on the iPhone. When I synced with iTunes, *iTunes (again) copied every single one of the disabled podcasts back to the iPhone!!!* Oh, and the one podcast I asked iTunes to put on the iPhone; it's not there. ;(
    How can I "reset" the synchronization of podcasts between my iPhone and iTunes so they're talking to each other again? And please don't say wipe your iPhone—I have dozens of applications with settings and data that would all be lost. It would be easier to give up podcasts than the day it would take me to reconfigure every iPhone app.

    I appear to have found a fix.
    I changed my sync settings to 'manually manage music'.
    Once i applied this the podcast icon underneath my device disappeared.
    I then unchecked 'manually manage music' and applied the change.
    the podcast icon underneath my device in itunes flickered on and off a few times then when it was finished syncing all the podcasts had gone.

  • I am receiving updates everyday for creative cloud, always the same updates (sometimes even two time

    i am receiving updates everyday for creative cloud, always the same updates (sometimes even two times a day . Is there a way to stop that?

    Checked out that link and everything seems to be in order on this machine at this time.
    I only have CC installed on this one machine, not even my secondary machine like is permitted. it seems odd that I'm asked to re-accept the Licence Agreement as often as I am. If I had to guess, it's almost every week, if not multiple times some weeks, that all the software will decide I should have to view the licence agreement.
    Edit: I've never had any noticeable "errors" activating or anything like that. I just get asked to do it quite frequently.
    This activation screen isn't too annoying (it involves clicking one single button), but like I stated earlier, if I'm trying to launch the software by double-clicking on a PSD, AI, PPROJ, AEP, etc... that file will fail to open.
    I feel like that's probably not really a bug, but it is frustrating, since I did launch the application with the intent to edit that specific file I tried to open.
    Again, something that you guys may consider working on.
    Another annoyance is that: agreeing to the licence agreement is a per-application task, so if I see that Licence Agreement dialogue window by opening Photoshop (for example), I know that every other piece of software I have in the suite (Illustrator, Premiere, After Effects, Audition) will be showing me that screen on it's next launch. Probably deliberate for legal purposes that I can't just agree once for the whole suite, but heck, it would save me a lot of minor headaches if it was a unified agreement.

    In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • Export & Import in the same DataBase

    Hi,
    I'm trying to export and import in the same DataBase but in different User/Tablespace, the imp procces create the objects in the same Tablespace of the export. What can I do to create a copy of a schema in the same database?
    Thanks. JEA

    I am not sure if I am reading your question correctly, Create a new user in your database.
    Use the command line (DOS) command 'exp80 username/password@hoststring'
    there are a number of parameters here, you can find their meanings online if you search for 'export ORACLE command line parameters', I don't know what your requirements are but you have to set the FILE parameter with the name of the file you wish to store your output in(ext should be .dmp).
    To import, use imp80 and log on as the new user you created then the following parameters need to be set:
    File= your file name
    SHOW = n
    IGNORE = n
    GRANTS = y
    ROWS = y
    FROMUSER = old user name
    TOUSER = new user name
    TABLES = *
    I hope this helps.

  • Copy Multi-Layered Drawing-Object and keep the same Layers

    Good evening
    We often have to clone a Drawing-Object and the clone should use the same Layers. We expected that we can just select the Objects on the related Layers, Drag and keep a key (e.g. Ctrl) and Drop the copy
    An example:
    The original Object has an rectangle and a text on two layers:
    Layer 1: Rectangle (Original)
    Layer 2: Text (Original)
    After cloning, we should have:
    Layer 1: Rectangle (Original) Rectangle (Copy)
    Layer 2: Text (Original) Text (Copy)
    Thanks a lot for all ideas in advance,
    kind regards,
    Thomas

    Thank you for your fast answer!, unfortunately it does not work as expected: after the Copy-Operation I always have more Layers than before. To use my example again:
    The original Object has an rectangle and a text on two layers:
    Layer 1: Rectangle (Original)
    Layer 2: Text (Original)
    Then I select the Rectangle and the Text an copy these Objects.
    I always get:
    Layer 1: Rectangle (Original)
    Layer 2: Text (Original)
    Layer 3: Rectangle (Copy)
    Layer 4: Text (Copy)
    What I expect after copy is:
    Layer 1: Rectangle (Original) Rectangle (Copy)
    Layer 2: Text (Original) Text (Copy)
    Kind regards,
    Thomas

  • Cannot open CS6 Bridge.  Always the same ERROR: Bridge has a problem and cannot read the cache

    Cannot open CS6 Bridge.  Always the same ERROR: Bridge has a problem and cannot read the cache

    Try this.  This is for CS6 but substitue CC and Bridge 6.
    ~library/caches/Adobe/Bridge CS6 and inhere should be 2 files:
    Adobe Bridge Plug-in Cache
    and the folder called Cache. Inhere should be 4 folders called '254', '1024', 'data' and 'full'
    All those folders carry the content of the respective quality of the thumbs and preview as well as 100 % cache and Bridge database.
    Any way, Since you have not used Bridge you have no relevant amount of cache and I would suggest you quit both PS and Bridge and manual delete both the items (plug in and folder called cache at the end of the Bridge CS6 path mentioned above.
    (both files will refresh itself after a restart of Bridge).
    To be on the save side also visit in same user library the folder Preferences and look for the file called "com.adobe.bridge5.plist" (yes it is Bridge 5 that comes with CS6, all Adobe apps have their own version number and they are presented in the same Suite version. CS6 has PS version 13 and Bridge version 5 )
    also drag this file to the trash.
    Then hold down option key (alt) while starting Bridge and this should give you the option to reset the preferences as mentioned earlier in this thread.
    Choose reset prefs and try again.

  • I cannot back up my i pad to my iTunes, but the error message is not always the same.

    I cannot back up my i pad to my iTunes, but the error message is not always the same. I get everything from could not back up "because the iPad disconnected" to could not back up "because the iPad was not set up."
    Here are things I tried that did not help:
    1) I turned my iPad off then turned it back on.
    2) I backed up my iPod touch to see what happened, and it went fine.
    3) I tried a different cord to connect the computer to the iPad.
    4) I updated my iPad
    5) I updated my iTunes
    Any other suggestions? Thanks!!

    There are multiple places where these photos could be stored:
    - a recent iCloud back up
    - on your PC/Mac if you imported them
    - Photostream if you used it
    Unfortunately if the photos are not stored in any of these locations then they have been lost for good.
    All the best

  • IPhone 5s restored from 4s all but my photos and won't finish.  Have tried reset and restore several times but always the same thing. Pat bottom of screen it shows downloading but no pictures transfer.

    Have tried 4 times to reset, erase and restore but always the same result.  Everything restores except my photos. When I go to photos at the bottom of the screen it says downloading but the pictures never transfer.  Every time I turn my phone on it asks to continue restore but it never finishes. It won't let me upgrade to the latest iOS due to incomplete restoration.

    How long has it been since you let the restore just happen? Sometimes photos are what takes the longest to bring back from an iCloud back up. I would recommend that you let it just keep restoring for about 2-3 days and see if more photos come back than what you're experiencing. Also make sure that you are connected to wifi as much as possible so that those photos can be downloaded faster. It is a waiting and being patient kind of thing. I did an iCloud restore from a backup that took 4 days to finish bringing down all my photos.

  • When I listen to music on Apple TV 2 my pictures from iPhoto come in, but always the same album (which I nevr asked for), always in random order and always in a different format. How can I control what is going on and choose the album myself.

    When I listen to music on Apple TV 2 my pictures from iPhoto come in aafter about ten minutes, but always the same album (which I never asked for), always in random order and always in a different format. How can I choose a different album myself and control the order and format?

    Thank you Winston for a helpful response and for reminding me of something which I found nearly a year ago and then lost (in my mind) because I did not use it. I am grateful for a correct answer but it still only achieves part of what I wanted.
    I can now choose my photos, decide how long they stay on screen and choose one of a variety of presentations. Two things I still can't do.
    One is to get it to play the photos in the chronological order in which I have carefully set them in an album; it still tends to be random and repetitive. The other is that I cannot get any of them them to saty on screen for more than about 20 seconds. I guess this is all due to the way Apple TV is constructed.
    But still thanks, nevertheless.
