PSD files not importing properly into AFX CS5?

I'm having a bit of trouble with After Effects CS5 and Photoshop CS5 .psd files.
Basically I've got a few images that I want to import into AFX as .psd files but when ever I do, all the images show the exact same image, yet when I open them in Photoshop CS5 the image that I made is there so I know I haven't saved over my files.
This occurs wether importing as multiple files or singular. I click the Photoshop sequence option as well as clicking the composition - keep all layer styles.
What am I doing wrong and why aren't my images showing up as individual images but rather all of them being the same one image regardless of what I've imported?
Do I have to import as footage rather than composition?
Thank you and hope that made sense, if not, please ask me to explain as I need to fix this quite fast.
Thank you.

Thank you for that.
I've just been importing them as footage and that seems to be working fine as well.
I shall try without the Photoshop Seqeunce ticked.

  • RAW files not importing correctly into iPhoto

    I'm having problems importing .CR2 files into iPhoto. This didn't used to happen with Tiger, so I'm trying to figure out what the issue is. I'm using iPhoto 7.1.1 (354) with Leopard 10.5.1. I previously had 10.4.8.
    I'm wondering if it's an issue with networking. Currently, my iPhoto Library is on a NAS because it's big (about 86GB) and I have RAID redundancy on the NAS. The original files are fine, but the imported files (not just the thumbnails) are corrupted. If there's a problem with data transmission, would that show as a data corruption?

    Michael
    I don't have a NAS myself and my ignorance of it and networking one is pretty much total. However, this thread
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1100543&tstart=0
    records a discovery by one user using a similar system. It has to do with iPhoto using ':' for temp files and folders, and Samba having a problem with the character.
    Hope that helps.

  • Layered PSD files not importing correctly

    Hey all,
    I'm working on an animation, and I'm trying to animate some text layed out in a specific way in a .psd document. I export the psd to the desktop with the layers box checked, and I keep "maximize compatibility" on. When I quick-look the file or re-open it, it appears correctly. However, when I import it into FCPX (v. 10.0.6) all of the text, which is black, shows up as just a black image. When I drag the file into the timeline the layers separate as they should and have the correct titles, but they appear black. In the original document it was black text on a transparent background. I never had this problem in FCP7, it's new to FCPX. Why is this happening and how can I fix it?
    Thanks in advance!

    Is the PSD 8-bit RGB? Was it made on a Mac or PC? Are each of the layers rasterized or in bitmapped form?

  • Transcoded files not importing properly.

    I'm new to Premiere (coming from FCPX) and I've been trying to import a video file for the last few hours. I can't seem to swing it.
    1. The file(s) in question are 720p 422 AppleProRes .mov files, 8track audio sampling at 48k, transcoded from r3d files (in red cine-x if it matters).
    2. The files play fine as stand-alones, in my Quicktime Player.
    3. They also import and play fine in FCPX.
    4. I am able to import audio songs and other finished movies into Premiere Pro. They all play fine.
    5. When I attempt to import my transcoded files, the picture seems to import fine, but the audio is this horrid maxed-out static noise on all channels.
    6. In other transcoded video, instead of the audio maxed out, there's missing audio channels, and the channels that do exist are extremely loud and heavily distorted.
    7. I tried re-transcoding into HDV, but I get the same audio distortion when I import to Premiere.
    8. I have tried playing with different Sequence settings, and I have also tried matching the Sequence to the clip in question.
    9. I tried importing my raw r3d files, but Premiere does not allow them to import. Since I've read that Premiere is able to read r3d, I am reinstalling my copy of Premiere.

    Hey Ronin, thanks for your reply! The audio codec is Linear PCM.
    The audio codec options I have, from redcine-x, are:
    Linear PCM
    AAC
    Apple AES3 Audio
    Apple Lossless
    MPEG-4 AAC Enhanced Low Delay
    MPEG-4 AAC Enhanced Low Delay with SBR
    MPEG-4 AAC Low Delay
    MPEG-4 HE AAC
    MPEG-4 HE AAC V2
    Would one of them be better?

  • My photos are not importing properly into iPhoto! They import successfully but never appear in my library!

    Whenever I import photos recently they will be in the Last Import folder but when I click my photo library they are not in it. And then when I go back to last import they aren't in there anymore. I have already lost a lot of pictures since I always select the delete off of memory card option after importing. I think it is ever since I upgraded to Lion. HELP!

    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 Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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. .

  • High ISO RAW files not importing properly since upgrading to Yosemite

  • Why is my .psd file not rendering correctly in ae

    Some layers of the .psd document are not rendered correctly. However they are imported.
    The strange thing is that when I first move from Photoshop to Illustrator, save it as an .ai file it is rendered properly (in Ae).
    I am kind of clueless as to what is causing this issue.
    Kind regards,
    Jelle

    Okay if more information is needed, i'll provide. However you may disregard my initial comment about illustrator. It flattens the photoshop layers so I do not have any flexibility in After Effects. In other words, my main question remains: why is my psd file not rendering correctly in ae?
    Further details:
    -photoshop cc and after effects cc.
    -macbook pro retina
    If still not clear enough, please tell me what details you are looking for furthermore

  • M2t files not importing audio.

    Hi
    I split a clip in Prem. Elements 7 into 2 parts and encoded them into m2t files.
    When I test both clips in Windows Mew\dia Player both play fine - video & audio.
    BUT when I import both into Prem CS5 only one clip had audio?
    How can I get the other one to import audio too, like the first? It is there because I can hear it correctly in Media [player?
    Thanks  Vince

    When it plays in WMP it does not automaticly mean that it will play in Premiere.
    Do these clips play in Elements?
    What if you do not split the clip and bring it straight into CS5.
    What is the source of that clip?
    What are the export settings Elements?

  • PSE5 slideshow won't import properly into PSE8

    Hi,
    I have a number of large slide shows created in PSE5 which function properly in PSE5 but won't import properly into PSE8.  All of the transitions, pans, and zooms are there (from the .psess file), but all of the photos are blank (black).  Ocasionally there's totally unrelated photo in one of the black slots.
    I've read numerous posts here and in the Village but so far I've not been able to resolve the issue.
    What I suspect is that something in the structure of the PSE5 access database (Catalog) is corrupt preventing the proper transfer of slideshow details into the PSE8 SQLite dabase.
    I've spent numerous hours trying to kick-out a solution but so far nothing has worked.  Here's what I've tried so far (all with copies of the original database).
    1) In PSE5 I've removed all slideshows, creations, albums, and photos except for one single slideshow.  Import to PSE8 fails.
    2) Numerous catalog recoveries, optimizations, and repairs both before and after conversion to PSE8.  No joy.
    3) Database investigations with Mr. Ellis' psedbtool.  Nothing wrong is ever reported.  I can't really deduce what has been corrupted.
    4) Create New slideshow in PSE5 and convert to PSE8.  Some success since most photos make it through but some photos are complete un-related.
    The ONLY thing that as worked is the following:
    Create New Catalog in PSE5.   Create New slideshow in PSE5.  Convert to PSE8.  Slide show works fine in PSE8.
    I'm hoping that someone can help me determine how to fix the PSE5 access database or find a way to kick the slideshows out of the corrupt PSE5 catalog so that it converts properly to PSE8.
    Thanks, in advance, for anyone who takes on this challenge and will lend a hand.  Throw some ideas out there and I'll give them a try.
    Paul

    Are you creating a standard menu or a layered menu? I would warn you that there are a lot of problems with layered menus. They are best avoided.
    There is a tutorial on creating custom shapes at;
    http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/shapes_droptemplates.html
    But you are really best off creating your entire background in Photoshop and importing it as one piece.

  • I can not import photos into lightroom 4.4  Had no problem before this time.

    I can not import photos into lightroom 4.4  Had no problem before this time.  I have camera raw7.4 and use a NikonD7100.  I have a Mac using 10.6.8.  I can see the images and selected for import in Lightroom, but after I check "import" I get a message that Lightroom could not read the files.  This happens with both raw and jpeg files.  Thanks for a repl

    thanks for the reply. would you please tell me how to check for the folder to have write permission.  I have done the same settings as before but this time does not transfer.  It says can not read files with a code "298".  I can see the thumbnails on the screen prior to trying to import the photos, also can see them with the card in the camera and using the view mode.  I have up to date camera raw 7.4 for my Nikon D7100 and the settings allow for 7.1 and above

  • I am having issues with Sidebar files not appearing from within InDesign CS5.5. They show up fine from other Adobe applications. Using OS10.6.8.

    I am having issues with Sidebar files not appearing from within InDesign CS5.5. They show up fine from other Adobe applications. Using OS10.6.8.

    I would first of all trash the preference file for InDesign, make sure the application is closed then find the prefs in
    /Users/USER NAME/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign and just throw the entire folder away, it will generate a new one after you launch InDesign again.
    Now launch InDesign and see if the problems are resolved.
    If not I would repair your permissions on your hard drive wih disk utility, and if that fails then di-install InDesign and re-install that single application.
    Let me know if any of these suggestions work for you
    I will be checking my email although you might have to wait for a response as I will be taking a microlight flight over the Victoria Falls tomorrow. Yay can hardly wait.

  • Files not imported because they could not be read.  L5.3 on Mac from SD card in reader RAW photos

    Files not imported because they could not be read.  L5.3 on Mac from SD card in reader RAW photos and video visible when card inserted but not able to import.  Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?

    This message means that you don't have permission to write to the destination folder or disk drive. This is an operating system issue that can be resolved by changing permissions. And you can get plenty of information on how to do that by doing a web search for "change disk permissions".

  • We think 5.0.2 has fixed it! (InCopy Files Not Synchronizing Properly)

    Last year there was a topic (now archived) titled 'InCopy Files Not Synchronizing Properly' which discussed a problem with InCopy breaking the VC link after editing the story.
    5.02 update ID and IC seems to have fixed it. We have only done a quick test but would be grateful if others users involved in this topic would have a look and report back to this thread.
    I don't seem to be able to post to an archived topic, but am keen to let others know, so I have started this new thread.
    With hope
    Alan Edwards

    We've only produced one magazine since upgrading to 5.0.2, but I've noticed *significantly* fewer version control issues (2 versus about 20) since last issue. A dramatic improvement.
    Now if they could only fix that darn text wrap bug.
