PSE12 compatibility with iPhoto 11 v 9.5

Is it possible to edit Apple iphoto11 v 9.5 images in PSE 12? I get a blank editor screen each time.

That usually means you chose the logical file as your external editor instead of the correct file. The actual PSE editor is hidden away in the Support Files folder:
The file at the top level is only an alias for the welcome screen.

  • RAW format compatibility with iPhoto

    I am looking for a new camera that supports RAW. It is my understanding each camera manufacturer uses a different file extension on their RAW images implying there is a difference between the file formats. The list that Apple supplies for cameras that can be used with iPhoto is not up to date as many newer cameras do not show up on their list.
    Would it not be safe to assume that if, for example, Canon comes out with a new camera with RAW format support their file type which is .CRW would automatically work with iPhoto. The same would be for Nikon, Olympus and the rest. If the new camera uses the same file extension as one of the older cameras by the same manufacturer on Apples compatibility list the new camera will be compatible.
    Here is the list of extensions I found by manufacturer.
    .raf (Fuji)
    .crw .cr2 (Canon)
    .kdc .dcr (Kodak)
    .mrw (Minolta)
    .nef (Nikon)
    .orf (Olympus)
    .dng (Adobe)
    .ptx .pef (Pentax)
    .arw .srf (Sony)
    .x3f (Sigma)
    .erf (Epson)
    .mef .mos (Mamiya)
    .raw (Panasonic)
    .r3d (Red)

    This document should answer most of your questions: Digital camera RAW formats supported by Mac OS X 10.5.
    Oops, didn't see that you were still using Tiger. This document may be more appropriate in that case: iPhoto 6: Supported RAW format cameras. There may be a Tiger doucment like the one for Leopard but I wasn't able to find it just now.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Tiger compatibility with iPhoto

    I am about to update a G4 with iPhoto to Tiger. I am currently running 10.0 on the machine. Is there a danger of losing iPhoto when I install the new Tiger? I have backed up the photos themselves. Thanks.

    Hi macinyart,
    first of all: WELCOME TO THE DISCUSSIONS!
    Yes, you will lose all your applications and data, so make sure you have a complete backup! Reason: in order to upgrade from 10.0.x to 10.4.x you have to perform an Erase&Install. You will have to either reinstall your applications from the original disks or restore them from your backup after you upgraded.

  • Help: Nikon D50/RAW compatability with iPhoto

    I'm going to buy my first Mac tomorrow (20" iMac for those interested) and I'm wondering if I need to buy Aperture right away or wait a while. If iPhoto can handle Nikon's RAW format, which is NEF, I will hold off on Aperture. Does anyone have experience with this? Any help is appreciated!

    I don't use RAW but, from what I've heard, iPhoto doesn't do very much with it. Of course, I never did understand why amateurs want to use it anyway. Be that as it may, why not wait until you get your Mac and find out for yourself?

  • Help With Panasonic DCM-LX1 RAW Compatibility with iPhoto

    Can someone share their successful experience of importing RAW files into iPhoto from their Panasonic LX1? I posted this question earlier but all replies were lost somewhere in web Limbo when sent to my email. My Mac will import photo and video files from the LX1 in a JPEG & TIFF format but will not recognize and will not import photos shot in RAW, my personal format choice. Your help will be greatly appreciated.

    I have the same camera so i checked out the raw images--sorry no spots show up.

  • Olympus Evolt E-500 Digital SLR is compatible with iPhoto?

    Does anyone know if the Olympus Evolt E-500 Digital SLR is compatible with iPhoto ( I do not want to have to use Olympus software)? I know it is not listed on the official Apple list but am curious if anyone could speak from experience. I am looking at purchasing a digital SLR and am considering the Evolt E-500 but would like to understand its compatibility with iPhoto.
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    RAW ORF files will not work as of yet. JPEG and TIFF are okay. I have CS2 and had to download a RAW beta from Adobe to process my RAW files. I knw that my friend had problems with CR2 files (Canon 350D) when Tiger was at 10.4.2. He would see the thumbnails in finder column view but Preview and iPhoto before the last update would not work. When 10.4.3 came all is well; so I ma hoping 10.4.4 will let us use ORF RAW files fromour E500. If you get a chance check out the forums at www.dpreview.com and the Olympus DSLR forum and the MAC tools forum. When I got my E500 I started shooting RAW right away. You will find more control in processing the the RAW to jpeg. Hope this helps.

  • Problem with iTunes compatability with iMovie and iPhoto

    I purchased some music from the iTunes music store and wanted to use that music in a homemade DVD I made. I also have tried using the purchased music when I play a slideshow in iPhoto. In both instances, an error window popped up saying that I needed to launch iTunes and authorize the computer to play the song... Well I bougth the music on the same computer and it is authorized. I typed in the authorization anyways and then after that iMovie and iPhoto both pop up with an error saying that it can't use the file.
    Thinking it might just be one song file... I have tried this with many purchased song. I have had the same problem with all of the purchased songs I've tried.
    Are some purchased songs not compatable with the iLife applications? How can I fix this problem? I'm running iLife 05 and I have installed all of the updates, including the most recent...
    iTunes 6.0.2
    iPhoto 5.0.4
    iMovie HD 5.0.2

    Do you need to update Quicktime as well?

  • All of a sudden File compatability issues with IPhoto & digital camera

    Anyone have issues or solutions for solving file compatability issues with IPhoto & digital camera?  Worked okay for years but all of a sudden giving me error messages about file format.  My camera uses Jpeg.

  • Trouble with iPhoto after latest update for compatibility with RAW-files

    Hi all, I'm having serious trouble with iPhoto since the latest update for compatibility with RAW-files for digital fotocamera's (version 2.4).
    After connection with the camera iphoto starts up as usual and i can start importing my pictures. So far all goes well. After having imported my pictures (visual with thumbs and so one) and having created an event iPhoto isn't able to show any pictures. Stopping and restarting Iphoto gives a message that there are a number of photo's available that havent been imported yet (!!???). I can choose to import or ignore. Whatever i choose i'm not capable of visualising the photo's.
    Anyone with a similar problem and the solution? Can i remove the update?
    I've tried several camera's all with the same problem.
    thx for any replies
    niki001

    Hi Terence, thanks for the reply (i'll wait with the downgrade for now ;-p).
    I made a small step by step report of my findings:
    1. Attach camera to imac
    2. iPhoto starts up with previews of the pictures (so far so good)
    3. Give event-name and start import ( so far so good)
    4. 'Latest Import'-report all fine, previews ok, check with event : previews fine. All seems well
    5. disconnect camera, stop iPhoto. As far as now all seems normal.
    6. Restart iPhoto : Message 'iPhoto Library contains photo's which havent been imported. Import Y/N?'.!!!???
    7. Option Y : IPhoto imports photo's imported in step 3 in a new event box (shown as a 'black box' on screen). Last made event (step 3) shows up as a black square in overview all events. Double click on event gives empty squares where previews should appear. Double click on photo preview gives large explanationmark on screen.
    8. Drag event-box over screen shows thumbs within square, release event returns to 'black box'.
    9. Shut down iPhoto.
    10. Restart iPhoto jumps back to step 6 as long as i keep answering Y.(Each time creating a new extra 'black box event').
    11. When i now look within iPhoto Library i can find a map Import in which i can find back the last imported photo's from step 3.
    12. Dragging these pictures to my desktop (preview gives no problem at all) and from there back in to iPhoto simply recreats a new 'black box event'.
    13. In step 6 option N gives a message 'creat iphoto Library recovered'. In iPhoto Library map Import has disapeared.
    14.When looking into map 'iphoto Library recovered' i can find my originally iported photo's. However same problem as in step 12.
    I used aperture (trial version) to see wether the problem could be photo-related, but here al goes well.
    So, any idea's???
    thx

  • IPhoto 6.0.6 compatibility with  Canon powershot A530

    I want to use my USB Cable to download the picture in my computer. Nothing happens. So i downloaded the canon software, now i can have it but i don't want this sofware... Is there a way to connect directly with IPhoto to use the camera like USB Key. (It will be great).
    Right now i use USB adapter for my memory card to have the picture.

    Good morning. I can tell you that the Powershot A620 works perfect with all my Macs. I've traveled to Ireland twice with it and to the West Cost and the pictures were and still absolutely stunning. I even used iMovie to make a little vid log of our trip to Ireland and they play it here in my local pub. People are asking the owners were did they buy the Ireland DVD? I'm getting a big head over those photos.
    Here is a link to some of them as seen on Google Earth:

    I think it is safe to say you won't go wrong with a Canon. That model has photo stabilization if I remember correctly. I don't have that but I wish I did.
    Good luck.

  • IPhoto CD compatibility with PCs

    I'm having a problem getting photos printed because commercial processors can't read my CDs, all TDK data CD-R 700MB. This also happens when I put a CD into a Fuji self-operated machine.
    When I open a CD on my Mac and hit Command-I, it tells me that the Format is Mac OS Extended, as one would expect. All the photos are ".jpg," some converted from TIFF to suit commercial processing. One of my CDs is a Multisession burning -- so as to separate single-copy photos from those needing two copies and others again of a different size. But multisession or regular -- no go.
    I'm soooo tired of processors telling me their **** PCs don't work with Apple

    fortes:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. How did you burn the disks? CDs that are burned by iPhoto via the Share->Burn menu are not intended for use by PCs or any computer not running iPhoto.
    To create a disk of photos from iPhoto for use by PCs you need to export the selected photos to a folder on the desktop using the File->Export->File Export menu option. Once the files have been exported to the desktop put in a blank CD, drag the folder to it and burn. That will create a disk of just jpg image files that the PCs can use.
    There possibly be a smaller file accompanying each photo file that the PCs will see. Those are the resource fork files that the Mac OS uses but PCs don't. They should not be a issue with the processor but can be removed with 3rd party applications before burning. One that I use is QuickImage CM, a contextual menu application: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19253.

  • Is there some secret to getting Pentax K-3 .dng files to display thumbnails when importing to an iPad (mini w/retina)? Files import fine, but no thumbnail. Mac OS has compatability with those files.

    Is there some secret to getting Pentax K-3 .dng files to display thumbnails when importing to an iPad (mini w/retina)? Files import fine, but no thumbnail. Mac OS had compatibility with those files added long ago. Am I missing something?

    I agree Terrance. However, I was able to copy other large batches of other files (my music for example) without any issues. The issue only showed up when copying iPhoto's library and/or the photos themselves. This was repeated 3 times; I copied all my other files to the drive then it unmounted on iPhoto. And, as I said, again when I started with a fresh reformat and just iPhoto. That does not seem like hardware to me if it is only happening with one set of files.
    I have managed to get the iPhoto library to work on my other external drive. It wanted a rebuild twice and a thumbnail rebuild once. I am now attempting to copy it over to the new HGST internal drive.
    Anyone have a suggestion for alternatives to iPhoto? I have aperture, maybe I will try that. But from what I understand, it just shares the same library as iPhoto.

  • Using PSE13 as external editor with iPhoto w/MAC OS

    Upgraded from PSE12 to 13 and now unable to use PSE13 as an external editor with iPhoto on a MAC OS V 10.9.  Have reinstalled and no change.  Preferences in 13 differ from help for older versions.

    Are you sure you are choosing the correct file? In recent versions adobe has hidden the actual editor away in the Support Files folder in the PSE folder. The file at the top level is just an alias for the welcome screen. You want this file:
