RAW from iPhoto to photoshop

I can import Raw photos to iPhoto but when I move them to Photoshop they appear as JPG, anyone know why and how I can fix it?

If you set your Preferences in iPhoto to edit in Photoshop, the file will open with Adobe Raw, where you can adjust your settings before opening the file in Photoshop.
iPhoto: Preferences: Edit Photo: [ set this to Photoshop ]

Can I FTP large photos directly from iphoto or Photoshop Elements?

I have been uploading large jpegs onto another server using ftp plug-in with Aperture. But it strips the photo info, captions etc from the file, which is crucial information for my clients. Does any one know why this is happening, If I could ftp directly from iphoto or Photoshop elements even, it would be easier for me as I don't find aperture useful for multiple batch changes in file names and captions.
Currently I have been editing the file names and comments in iphoto, exporting 'version name' (other wise it exports the original file name) to a folder on the desktop and then importing these files into aperture where I use a plug in AperturetoFTPpro. I do have the export version box checked and not the 'master' box - By now i've lost track of which it thinks the 'master' or 'version' is!
not sure what's causing the problem, iphoto or aperture.
When i look at the metadata in aperture, I can't see the captions, but if i open the same file in photoshop and do 'apple i' the info is there.

To the best of my knowledge, there's no way to FTP directly out of iPhoto that's built into iPhoto, but you can try asking in the iPhoto forum where if anyone knows how you'll be more likely to get a response. There is a third-party product called PhotoUpLink that the developer says works with iPhoto that you could try.
The same applies to your Aperture question; try asking in the Aperture forum, though if you're using the demo plugin that comes in the Aperture Plug-In SDK, that's really not intended to be "production quality" but rather just an example of plugin development, so it may well lack capabilities or otherwise have issues. You might take a look at PhotoUpLink or Uberload for Aperture,
Not using Photoshop Elements I can't say about that, but Adobe runs their own forums for that here where you could ask.

How do I get my existing photo library from iPhoto to Photoshop?

How do I get my existing photo library from iPhoto to Photoshop?

Hello MWWWB,
Unlike iPhoto, Photoshop is only an editor. It does not store or organize images. In iPhoto preferences, you can choose Photoshop as an editor. You will then get a choice when you double click on an iPhoto thumbnail to use iPhoto or Photoshop to make edits. But Photoshop does not have a library to store images like iPhoto.
You may want to use Adobe Bridge or Lightroom to help name and organize your pictures. You can Export your iPhoto Library to a folder and manage the exported images there.
Personally, I hate the arcane manner iPhoto stores and organizes images. I use it only for photos from my iPhone.

How do you get your photos from iPhoto into Photoshop? Am I just duumb

How do I move my photos from iPhoto to Photoshop? I am feeling really dumb right now.

Hi Gramo5,
Please follow the below steps.
In the Finder, navigate to your iPhoto package file. By default, it's located in /Users/[user name]/Pictures, and it's called iPhoto Library.
Control-click the iPhoto Library file and choose Show Package Contents.
A Finder window opens that shows the contents of the package file. The Masters folder contains all of the photos that are in iPhoto.
Control-click the folder named Masters and choose Duplicate.
Drag the folder named "Masters copy" from the iPhoto Library Finder window to your Desktop and then you can import the pictures to Photoshop from the desktop.
Thank you for posting on Adobe Forums.

How can I pull photos from iphoto into Photoshop to edit them?

Uploaded some photos on my new Apple Mini (I'm converting from Windows to Mac) and they uploaded fine - but then I couldn't see how to get them from iphoto into Photoshop to edit them. Surely they must automatically save but if so, where??

Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Note: to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

Open photo in Camera Raw from iPhoto 08

Can anyone advise me on how I would open into Camera Raw (Adobe PhotoShop CS3) from iPhoto 08? If I open directly, i.e., double clicking, the photo becomes a jpeg. How do I get it to stay "Raw?" Thanks.

Set photoshop as the external editor in the iPhoto preferences and set the advanced preference to Use RAW when editing in external editor
Alternatively you can export the photo (file menu ==> export) with kind = original

Photos from iPhoto into Photoshop look pixelated

Photos that look beautiful in iPhoto and Preview, when opened in CS3 look pixelated. Same dimensions pixels, 3264 x 2448. Tried exporting from iPhoto to desktop at maximum quality and then opening as Smart Objects but still pixelated! Print pixelated too! Tried changing the resolution. No help. Going round and round. Help! Maybe the picture was bad to begin with and I just couldn't tell in iPhoto? Have a G5 mac. Want to blow up from 4x6 to 11x14 print.
Thanks!

Why can't I import photos from iPhoto to Photoshop Elements 6?

I've got Photoshop Elements 6 on my iMac desktop running OS X 10.7.4. When I click on File>Open in PE6, my iMac Finder opens. I then select Photos and all my iPhoto and Photo Booth files open. But I cannot click on (well, I can click on them but nothing happens) any photo to pull it into PE6. It seems a simple operation, but apparently not for me! Any help getting this application to work would be sincerely appreciated! Thank you.

You can't do it that way. The iphoto library is for iphoto's own use, and poking at from outside iphoto is the fastest way to corrupt it and lose all your photos. You have two choices:
1. Set PSE as your external editor for iphoto and open all images from iphoto, not by using File>Open.
2. Export the photos from iphoto, open the copies and save them, then reimport the edited photos as new files.

Why can't I open photos from Iphoto in Photoshop?

Editing a photo from iPhoto in Photoshop elements 9

I can no longer take a photo from iPhoto & edit it in Photoshop Elements 9. When I opened Photoshop Elements independently, it went to Revel, and for the past 12 hours, the bottom scroll says "Gathering User Information." There's no more information to gather! Help! Ann

Stop using the welcome screen. Go into the Applications folder and make a dock icon for the actual editor file, which is this one:
and be sure that is the one you choose as your external editor in iphoto, too, not the one below it in the list.

Importing from iPhoto into Photoshop CS5

I wish to create a collage image made up of photos that requires 300 dpi resolution for printing. The photos come from my digital camera via iPhoto. When I open them up in Photoshop and go to Image>Image size.. the photo shows as having only 72 dpi resolution. How can I open photos from iPhoto and retain the higher resolution coming from the camera?

Short answer: the dpi is set when you decide what size you're printing at.
Long Answer: Dpi means nothing in the digital world of your computer. There are no "inches" to have "dots per..." Size is measured in pixels. That's the same on your camera. It doesn't take 10 x 8 or 6 x 4 shots. It takes shots measured in megapixels. For instance 4,000 x 3,000 is a 12 megapixel camera.
Using that example, that shot from that camera has 12 million pixels. So that's how many "Dots" there are. To decide the ratio of dots per inch, you now need to decide the "inches" part. And that's printing. Print at 10 x 8 and the dpi will be 4,000/10 or about 400 dpi. At 6 x 4 then it's 4,000/6 or 660 dpi. Work the other way: Print at 300 dpi and the resulting image will be about 13 inches on the longer side.
So, your photo as a fixed number of pixels. Changing the dimensions of the print will vary the dpi, changing the dpi will vary the dimensions of the print.

I am having a problem opening images in the Editor from iPhotos into photoshop elements

PSE10 Wont open raw from iPhoto

have a new Mac Air, and have been using Iphoto '11 (9.4.2). I downloaded PSE 10 through the App Store. In Iphoto I have clicked the "advanced" tabs to use PSE 10 as external editor and to export files as RAW. However, whenever I try to open a RAW file in PSE 10, it becomes a JPEG. This is true for both NEF (Nikon d300) and RAF (Fujix-100) files. It is also true whether I try to open the file through Iphoto by clicking the edit button (with PSE 10 as the external editor), or opening the Iphoto file directly through PSE 10. Also, when in Iphoto, it shows the file accurately as either NEF or RAF, and I can use the RAW editing in Iphoto.
Meanwhile, PSE 10 has no problem opening either type as RAW when I use a source different than Iphoto, for example from the memory card directly out of the cameras.
I feel there must be a simple solution to this, but I'm sure not finding it. Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Case

Move from iphoto to photoshop

I just got Photoshop elements and would like to stop automatic download of my photos into iphoto. I figured out how to edit the photos in Photoshop but can't seem to find an iphoto setting that will stop it from being the default program that opens and downloads photos from my camera [a Nikon D60]. Any tips?

When you set Elements (or any editor) as an external editor what happens is as follows:
You opt to edit in the external editor - the specifics are in the preferences -
iPhoto makes a copy of the original and sends it to the editor
You edit.
You Save.
The file saved back to the Library and becomes the +current version+ of the file. A new thumbnail is created and shown to you in the iPhoto Window. iPhoto tracks its relationship with the original file.
Note: you only Save in the editor, not 'Save As". If you use Save As then you create anew file in the editor and iPhoto has no way of knowing about this file. If you're processing Raw this way it's the same as Save As. In that scenario you need to Save As to the desktop and import the image as a new photo.

How do i edit jpeg photos from iPhoto in Photoshop CC?

I just downloaded Photoshop CC on to my new iMac. Most of my photos are in iPhoto. I have the iPhoto program setup to open Photoshop CC to edit the pictures. However, I got a message that CC cannot open jpeg files. That has to be a mistake!
Can someone help me with this?
