RAW 4.1 won't save to JPG with embedded thumbnail

Title says it all. So many other applications can't see a thumbnail, and have to (slowly) open the full JPG for previewing the photo.
If I open the JPG in Photoshop and resave it, an embedded thumbnail *is* added. There seems to be no option in Adobe RAW to have it add the thumbnail. So my workflow is messed up, as every JPG created by Adobe RAW has to be opened and saved in Photoshop to aquire an embedded thumbnail :-(
Anyone kow how to fix this? I've created an action in Photoshop to open all the files and resave them and it works in batch mode, but is rather a naff approach...
W

Update ten minutes later: I'm finding that the "Save Image" from ACR,
in both Bridge AND Photoshop, does create an icon and preview that other software (iView) can see. So as long as I run my changes and then "Save Image" into the next folder in my workflow, I get the image I want.
However, as might be expected, this permanently saves the changes so the nondestructive part of the flow is disabled. All the settings are reset to zero. This is ok by me, usually, since it is basically what happened when dealing with JPGs in CS2, but with the much more flexible interface of processing the JPGs in ACR, and taking advantage of its batch develop commands.
I tried saving into DNGs from ACR but the file was 9 times bigger than the original max quality JPG. So screw that.

Camera Raw 6.7 won't save developer settings

I'm running Adobe CS 5 with Camera Raw 6.7 on a Windows Vista machine.
I have a Canon T3i that I shoot all of my Raw files from. Which Camera Raw 6.7 supports and have not had trouble in the past.
Recently everytime I've loaded the Raw files into a new project folder and begin to adjust the first Raw file, none of the develper settings are saved or the updated Raw file won't show anything on Bridge (The little triangle on top of the Raw file won't show on Bridge). The XMP file contains the adjustments but bridge and camera raw will not load the adjustments. I am not able to copy or paste settings from other previous Raw files either.
The weird part is that I am able to adjust Raw files and developer settings are properly saved in older folder created previously. This seems to happen everytime I start a new project and load the Raw files into it.
I've tried clearing out the Camera Raw cache, and export cache for that folder but nothing help. I've even tried rebooting. Only after a good amount of time has passed and I've tried to keep on clearing the cache does Camera Raw finally functions properly and saves the developer settings afterwards. It's very random and very annoying. I usually end up wating alot of time trying to get it to work and at times can get very frustrating when the projects needs to be completed.
Has anyone had similar issues with Camera Raw? Any solutions or work arounds? Or what's causing it, and how can I avoid it??
Any help would be greatly appreciated and would help me not loose too much sleep.

So after looking around in the forums I found the solution. Some other members had similar issues.
The issue stems from not having the correct time set on the camera. Here's the link to the forum post with more detail:

ARD won't save multiple computers with same IP and different port!

I'm trying to access multiple computers over the internet behind a firewall with port forwarding.
I can access each computer, but ARD won't save the IP address and port (in IP Address column of ARD 3.1) of multiple computers with the same IP address. It will only save ONE. I've tried 'add by address', adding a list for each computer or adding a list for all those computers. Nothing has worked. ARD will actually change the first computer's IP address to 0.0.0.0
Example: Static IP address
Computer 1 xx.xxx.xxx.xxx:51 (public port 51 is forwarded to port 5900 on computer 1)
Computer 2 xx.xxx.xxx.xxx:52 (public port 52 is forwarded to port 5900 on computer 2)
Computer 3 xx.xxx.xxx.xxx:53 (public port 53 is forwarded to port 5900 on computer 3)
Has Apple really overlooked this or am I missing something? Isn't this how most people would remotely manage multiple Macs offsite?
Thanks

ARD cannot do this as you're asking. If your
workstations get their addresses from an NAT device
rather than being "real", the ports also need to be
forwarded in the router to the workstation's internal
IP address. ARD uses port 3283 for the reporting and
updating function, so if your Macs are getting their
IP addresses through NAT, since you can only forward
a port to a single workstation, you can only get
reports, push package/files to etc. for a single
workstation.
ARD uses the VNC protocol for observation and
control, though, and there are a range of IP
addresses for that protocol, starting with 5900. ARD
uses 5900 by default, so that port would be forwarded
to the first workstation. You would, I believe, need
to install VNC servers on the systems (since the ARD
client cannot listen on any port other than 5900
while VNC servers can be set for other ports such as
5901, 5902, etc. You would then forward 5901 to the
second workstation (and on to 5902, 5903, etc.). You
can then use the following information:
Remote Desktop 2: How to specify a port number
for a VNC client
to connect.
The only other options are: 1) to run the ARD
administrator on a workstation on the network, and
then take control of that system from outside, either
via VNC or another copy of ARD, or 2) set up a
virtual private network (VPN) so that when you
connect from outside, your admin system is officially
part of the local network.
Hope this helps.
That definitely helps. I have ARD installed on my MBP and on a workstation on the LAN. I have used ARD from the MBP to control ARD on a workstation on the local network, but it can get a little tricky. I already have VNC setup on all the workstations. I used to use COTVNC prior to purchasing ARD 3.1.
I guess what I'm really asking is...
How do I add a list of workstations and save the settings (same IP address for each workstation with different ports?) to control/VNC via ARD?
I simply want a list that shows each workstation, so I can control/VNC them using ARD offsite.
Name: Computer 1 IP Address: 123.123.123.123:5901
Name: Computer 2 IP Address: 123.123.123.123:5902
Name: Computer 3 IP Address: 123.123.123.123:5903
I don't want to have to manually type in the IP address into ARD every time.
Will ARD simply not add another computer to the list if it has the same IP address but different port number as a computer already on the list? I haven't been able to find a way to make ARD do this.

Does anyone know why I get varying file sizes when I save a jpg (with same settings-None, 12, base "standard", preview checked) from PhotoshopCS5?

I opened a .psd file (300 ppi, CMYK, .jpgs (1626px x 2130px), I saved it as a jpg (None, 12, base "standard", preview checked).
I then closed the original .psd file.
I repeated those steps on the same file and saved a series of 6 .jpgs.
Of those 6 files, I received 2 large files (6.2MB) and 4 smaller (3.2MB) files.
My coworkers who were having trouble opening some of my jpg images in Windows Photo Gallery on Vista OS were able to open the smaller files but not the larger ones.
Do you have any idea why the same settings would give me different file sizes from CS5?
Is there a way I can make it consistently keep the smaller more compatible version?

How well a image data compresses depends on image content. Image with High detail do not compress well image will little detail will compress well and the file size will be small. Compare a image of a blank white wall to a wall with a black and white checker board wall paper. One is all white it white no other detail to detail the other has squares that vary in size because of perspective angle and distance a lot of detail must be recorded.
I do not know why they can not open some of your images. File size should not be an issue. All your image decoded are the same size Width number of Pixels Height numbers of pixels background layer only for these are jpeg files.

CS2 won't save jpg since LR2.7 has been installed

Hi folks,
A few weeks ago I purchased LR 2.7 (and don't regret it for a minute!). Since then my CS2 has developed some funny habits, though, and won't save any photos as jpg that have first been worked on in LR. The error I get is "Cannot save due to program error". I assume that CS2 (antiques, I know...) is not really compatible with LR 2.7. But at the moment I have to make do with exporting first from LR and then opening it again in CS2 if I need to go on there. Everything works fine that far but after all the work I put into the thing CS2 just won't play. No problem saving as psd file. And I have created a 'workaround' to save my efforts after all, pasting it into a new document in CS2. No problem saving then. But it seems rather strange to me.
I work with an XP PC with loads of space & an external harddisk, a dual core quad processor and 4GB RAM. The original photos are taken in RAW.
Anybody who can give me an idea why my CS2 is having these fits of jealousy since it got competition from LR?
Thanks and grts

Hi Victoria,
Thanks for the very prompt reply!
And yes, I indeed did use the adjustment brush in all the obstinate cases. I
think that I'll go for Jeffrey's for the time being and wait for my purse to
fatten up a bit to get the CS upgrade which I was planning anyway. Thanks a
lot for your help

I'll bet you've used the adjustment brush or graduated filter? There's a
CS2 bug that falls over that perfectly legitimate metadata. Your options
are:
>
    •    Upgrade to CS3 or later. (While we’re on the subject of CS2 and
upgrades, CS5 is the last upgrade that CS2 users can buy at an upgrade
price. Once CS6 is available, CS2 users will have to pay the full price to
upgrade, as only the previous 3 releases qualify for the discounted upgrade
pricing.)
    •    Check the ‘Minimize Embedded Metadata’ checkbox in the Lightroom
Export dialog, which will strip ALL of the metadata. It solves the problem,
but leaves you short of any metadata in your files.
    •    Use Jeffrey’s Metadata Wrangler to strip just the problem metadata
from the file, which is by far the best option.
>
To use Jeffrey’s Metadata Wrangler Export plug-in, you’ll first need to
download it and install the plug-in from
http://regex.info/blog/lightroom-goodies/metadata-wrangler
>
Select the plug-in in the lower left of the Export dialog, and you’ll see
the additional section appear in the main Export options panel — scroll down
if you can’t see them.
>
The only part you need to remove is the ‘crs’ block -– all of the rest of
the metadata can stay. The ‘crs’ block is the Camera Raw Settings metadata,
better known as the Develop settings, and photos exported with that block
removed will quite happily save as a JPEG, even with Photoshop CS2.

Help Please! my JPG files suddenly won't save paths

I'm using CS5 on a mac. I've always been able to save JPG files with clipping paths intact. Suddenly today the paths won't save. I do a 'save as' and the path is there. When I close the file and open it up again, the path (not work path, but a saved path) is gone. No path in the path panel list! I am guessing I must have accidentally changed a setting?? Not sure what else it could be short of a software bug. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks.

That's a bit strange. I am not aware of a setting that would cause the path not to be saved.
The two circumstances to investigate are: i) was the path not saved and ii) are you not seeing it for some reason. The only way I am aware of to not save the path is to save the file as a jpg via Save For Web & Devices.
If the file was parsed by some other viewer & saved after it left photoshop then you could loose the path, though this is not common. Also, if you happen to open the jpg via camera raw it would also not be parsed to include the path.
Paulo
P.S. Perhaps you could post a sample jpg file that you believe should have a path that you cannot see.

Camera Raw won't open certain JPG files from Bridge, others open in ACR with no problem.

Edit: This was orignally posted in the Photoshop > Macintosh forum, which I failed to realize was read only. Thanks to a PM headsup, I'm reposting it here. Thanks
I've searched the internet and the Adobe forums and cannot find a direct answer to what I'm dealing with.
The issue I am having is that Bridge CS5 (current version 4.0.5.11) will open some JPG images in Raw with no problem and others nothing happens at all. All the images come from the same source (Fujifilm Frontier SP2000) so I really don't understand why Bridge ignores some of them as being openable in RAW. For example, say this roll of film has 36 images. If I "Select All", right click, and select "Open in Camera Raw", it will open whichever it deems acceptable in RAW and nothing happens at all to the others (The RAW dialog will, for instance, only open 10 images instead of all 36, and the remaining images are not altered in any way).
I've made sure that Photoshop is prefering Adobe Camera Raw with Supported Raw Files and in Camera Raw Preferences I have the box ticked to Automatically open JPGs with Settings but nothing helps.
My work around is to one file at a time in the Photoshop Open dialog, selecting an affected JPG file and have it open them as Camera Raw instead of Jpeg.
Any ideas? It's done this for quite a while and I have no idea how to fix it.
Thanks.

Some CS4 Raw adjustments lost after save to jpg or tiff

I've been running Photoshop CS4 under Windows XP 64 bit (with 8Gb RAM) with no problems whatsoever (including use of GPU feature) since November 2008.
Very recently, with a difficult event photosession I have a bunch of photos that have are overexposed/blown out highlights which were easily fixed with RAW adjustments in Bridge CS4 with the generous use of the RECOVERY slider as well as EXPOSURE.
After converting to JPEG (quality 12) or Tiff (as a test) the initially overexposed photos which were fixed and look fine in both Bridge and in Photshop show up overexposed -as if the RAW adjustments have never been made. In other words the jpg or tiff version appears with blown highlights right next to the corrected RAW version (Canon CR2 files). I need to emphasize that when the adjusted RAW is opened in Photoshop it looks fine -with all of the adjustments perfect. But once it is saved in Photoshop, the saved file does not look the same, it now has blown out highlights.
In other words something in the workflow whether Photoshop or RAW is simply not working the way it should and the way it used to work.
I have downloaded and installed the latest RAW 5.5. It has not helped at all. I can't pinpoint the time when this problem first showed up because I normally hardly ever have images with blown highlights. This last event shoot was very poorly lit and it took a bit of time to figure out how to correct the exposure setting on the spot.
Have any of you experienced this problem? I can't get Adobe Tech support telephone support without paying for the privilege, in spite of the fact that I suspect that this is a program bug.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated and welcome.
Thanks,
Dan

Some additional findings:
When I looked at the JPEGs which had blown highlights in Bridge, with ACDsee, they looked fine! So I also tested with Windows Fax Viewer and they're fine again. Conclusion -Bridge is showing unedited exposure.
Then in response to posting this same problem on Dpreview I got the solution from Walter Wollert:
wwollert wrote:
" Do you have tif and jpg edit options enabled in RAW(ACR)? There was something I ran into that caused the problem like you have. I turned these options off and it cleared up. Why? Ur guess is as good as mine.
Again, I could be in error, since it happened a while ago and I sometimes have rolling blackouts.
Walter
Hey Walter,
Your suggestion solved my problem. Who would have expected that disabling JPEG editing in RAW would solve this problem? I have been told to make sure this feature was enabled and in fact I always had this enabled because on occassion I find it very useful to use RAW tools to fix problems in some old JPGs.
I've been terribly annoyed and depressed about this problem and it just about completely stopped my editing for over 2 weeks, so you can be sure I am extremely thankful for your HEADS ON solution.
Someone at Adobe should have their head dunked in toilet bowl perhaps?
I don't ever remember seeing this problem in the past, even though I had the JPEG & TIFF editing enabled, and therefore I thought this "bug" crept in with one of the program updates.
Thanks a MILLION!!!,
Dan"
So that's the answer to the problem!

Rescuing my RAW color from Photoshop's "Save for Web"

Hi,
I love the depth of colors the images have in RAW format (with 16bits per channel). However, when I go to Save for Web, the color profile gets trashed (in the preview as it would in a browser) and I'm left with a lifeless image that pales in comparison to the original. To prepare for this, what I've been doing, is switching to the 'Monitor RGB' Proof Setup and adjusting Brightness & Contrast. Is there a better way? Thanks.

>If I'm not embedding the ICC profile in the JPG, won't Save for Web/Monitor RGB show me what the file will look like in a browser?
No, it will only show you what it looks like on
your monitor in an unmanaged app. It will
not show you what it will look like on other people's monitors. sRGB was designed to resemble an average monitor, so if you want to know what your image will look like on average on other people's monitors in unmanaged apps/browsers/flash, you need to look at a sRGB version in a managed app. Otherwise you're just targeting your specific monitor and actually causing a bigger difference on other people's monitors because of it.

ACR won't save files other than in original file folder.

This has just started. All was fine until now. I recently was working on several files in camera raw. Went to save files but discovered that I am unable to save the image, no matter what file format I choose -- TIFF, PSD or JPG -- unless I put it in the original folder it came from. For example, I would choose Save Image from ACR, then Save in New Location, then Select Folder, choose another file folder (say Desktop) and then it would try to save it but would tell me the file could not be created. If I choose Save in Same Location, everything works fine. I AM able to open the RAW file in Photoshop and Save it from there. As I said this is happening all of a sudden. I am working with Vista 64 bit and with Photoshop 64 bit. I tried using the 32 bit program but the same thing happens. Any suggestions or should I just completely uninstall and reinstall? I have checked and have all the latest updates for both Photoshop and ACR. Thanks.

Hi Gingerdee1,

XY Graph Won't save to JPEG when Black and White...and run from TestStand.

I am creating an XY graph and manipulating the colors of the plots, background, etc. I am saving this graph to JPEG using the Write JPEG File vi and after it is saved I import it inot a test report. This works fine in color, but when I create a B&W plot, it won't save to JPEG. Let me clarify: It won't save to JPEG when I run the VI from TestStand. It does save to JPEG when I run the VI as a stand alone application in LabVIEW.
Problem:
Run VI from LabVIEW ~ Saves the JPEG in both Color and B&W.
Run VI from TestStand ~ Saves the JPEG in Color, but does not save the JPEG in B&W.
Here is how I am making all the plots and background B&W in my code:
Change all Active Plots to Black using property node.
Change all Active Cursors to Black using property node.
Change the Plot BG colors (major/minor grids, etc) to lighter colors using property node.
Does anybody have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Mike

A few questions: What version of LV are you using? How are you getting the control image that you are sending to the JPG? Third what exactly happens when you try to save the B/W image under TestStand? Error?

Watermark source file won't save in settings

I have successfully created several watermark images that have source files (both in PDF format and JPG format). But there is one that I cannot get to save. I have tried the image in both JPG and PDF formats, but for whatever reason, when I try to save the settings, the source file is not saved and it just comes up as blank text when I select it for use. I have tried over and over again to save this watermark.
As a result, whenever I want to apply this particular watermark, I have to go and browse for and find the file time and time again.
?? Any clue as to why this one won't save? Is there a maximum number of watermarks that can be saved?

You can look at the place where the settings are saved.
For Acrobat 8 and MS Vista the place is:

Problem with save as .jpg once edited in LR5 and sent to PSE11 to save as a .jpg

Several days ago I bought Lightroom 5 as I have recently started taking pictures in RAW. I love the process and how it works, pictures look wonderful. I use Blurb (BookSmart) to create a yearly book which I am in and out of all year long. When I edit a RAW picture in PSE 11 and save as a .JPG I can export my picture to Blurb. When I edit my picture in LR5 and send to PSE11 to save as a .jpg I can not export my picture into Blurb. Does anyone have a reason,?

Sorry - I am learning
- In Lightroom after I have completed my development of the picture I
1. Right click on the picture and select "Edit in" I select Edit in Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor I then select in "edit a copy with Lightroom adjustments"
2. The picture will eventually open in PSE as a PSD
3. If I am making more adjustments such as the "spot healing" which I like better in PSE - I select the spot healing brush - I select the area needing fixing - click on the spot and make the correction
4. Once I have finished with any edits I might make in PSE I select "File" - Save As and select Save As .jpg
5. The file at this point has been saved as a .jpg
6. In BookSmart (Blurb) I click on their icon for get photos
7. I select the file and the photo I want
8. I select open
9. At this point nothing happens - in normal circumstances once I have selected Open - the picture will upload into Blurb (I would normally see the picture upload).
If I do not use Lightroom and open the CRS file in PSE instead
1. I open the file with file open select photo which opens picture in PSE
2. Photo will open in the RAW editing program within PSE
3. I will make any adjustments I want to make
4 I will select "open Image" in the Raw plug in
5. The picture will open within the PSE editor
6. I will again make any adjustment I might want to make within PSE editor such as the spot healing
7. When finished edits I select Edit - File Save As - select .JPG
8. As above in Booksmart I select "Get Photos" - select the photos I want from the file
9. Select open
10. I will see the picture upload into Booksmart
11. The picture is ready to put into the book on the page I want.
I do hope this is what you want - thanks
