Reference :  Adobe Photoshop

A new flag warning has started to appear each time I try to open Adobe Photoshop  :-
        " apl is either nor designed to run on Windows or it contains an error,  Try installing the
           program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator
           or softare vendor for support"
Problem :    I have used this apl for a very long time without this warning.
                     I have no idea where to find the original installation media, systems administrator
                     I cannot remember what vendor I  bought it from.
Help  ! !       Where do I go from here ?

Wow Jeff  !       As they say in the Kentucky Fried chicken advert   " Service is sudden "
I am most impressed   You seem to have replied in one minute (11.09 ) after my email ( 11.08 ).      I think the UK time is 8 hours ahead of you.
I  have been using Adobe Photoshop Version 7.0 for a long time.  This new flag has only appeared in the last week.   I don't really understand it, as it is not interfereing with the operation of the program.     Should I be using a later version  ? ?

  • Adobe Photoshop Album 2.0 to Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 Organizer catalog conversion

    I'm having trouble converting Adobe Photoshop Album 2.0 catalog to Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 Organizer.  I get a Conversion Failed error which tells me to repair with the program that created it.  I have tried several things including deleting all .avi files from the catalog, deleting references to missing files and backing up then trying to convert from an external HD.  I'm running Vista Home Premium on a HP laptop.  The Organizer optimize and repair don't seem to help in this case.
    Does anyone have any history with this or advice?

    Please refer to following KB article which deals with catalog conversion failures:-

  • Adobe Photoshop 11 with Premire Elements.

    I purchased this program the first weekend in August and have worked on learning it and creating a slide show of our recent trip to Africa almost every day -- a whole month.  In the preview it is perfect but when it shows on the TV it is blurry. Even when I preview in full screen on my PC it is a tad blurry and the letters are a little choppy.  I have read some other comments and I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong.  I created the slide show in the Organizer, choose output and the DVD NTSC 720x480 setting, I rendered it, and then burned the DVD.  I have made six DVD trying different setting and nothing is working.  I had an old program that I created slideshows with and had success on all my DVD's but decided to buy Adobe Photoshop 11 with Premire Elements because I wanted to have more options with my photos.  I have spent so much time on this project and I am so disappointed with my final product that I could cry!  The slideshow only runs 45 minutes so it is under the 60 minute maximum. It shouldn't be this hard -- HELP!!

    Thanks for the follow up. Sorry that your news was not better.
    I do not work for Adobe nor am I affiliated with it in anyway. So, what I am about to say is addressed solely in your interests.
    If you have confidence in Pinnacle Studio and you can get the slideshow video you want, then go with that. Some even suggest the use of Windows Live Movie Maker and the Windows DVD Maker for creation of the DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc.
    But, if you think that you want to give this one more try, I will work with you (step by step, all the steps) through this thread to try to get you a good quality Premiere Elements video representing your slideshow. Just let me know:
    a. number of photos, original pixel dimensions
    b. any videos going into this slideshow, what format
    c. is this going to be DVD-VIDEO standard 4:3 on DVD disc or DVD-VIDEO widescreen on DVD disc?
    d. are you applying pans and zooms
    e. what transitions are you using
    f. what effects are you using
    As reference point, what is the basic problem...playback quality of the DVD-VIDEO produced? Where are you playing it..on computer of TV DVD-Player or other.
    I will go as basic or technical as you want so that we get the job done. If I write something and you think "What in the world is that person talking about?", do not hesitate to communicate that to me. It will not hurt my feelings. I will rewrite what you do not understand. But in sync follow up on both sides is important.
    Whatever your decision, we wish you success.
    Thanks.

  • Just updated to OS X 10.8.5 - and got "You can't open the application Adobe Photoshop CC..."

    The full message is "You can't open the application Adobe Photoshop CC because it's not supported on this type of Mac." - why ?
    I notice people had the issue back in June, but this after the new point update for Photoshop CC - the update was OK but I can't access the program and it's regularly used.

    It's OK now - but seems that it was tied in with the .5 OS X update for any future reference !!!!

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 DVD Menu

    I read somewhere that I could make a DVD menu, in Adobe Elements for Adobe Premire Elements 10, but I am having troubling figuring out how to do so. Dose anyone know if there is a written or video tutorial for making a dvd template in Adobe Photoshop Elements 10? As that would really help me out, and I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

    The Menu Sets in PrE are very involved, as PrE does a lot of semi-automatic authoring, so things have to be done a very specific way. This ARTICLE links to a thread in the Photoshop Forum, where I discuss the naming conventions, etc..
    When on is working with PrE Menu Sets, I have several recommendations:
    Only start with, and Save Copies of the Menu Sets.
    Keep one of the Menu Set Templates handy, as a reference.
    Remember that Photoshop can both create and edit Layer Sets (the structure of Buttons), while PSElements can only edit them, and not create them, unless something was changed with PSE 10.
    Sub-picture Highlights (the Button "activation" part), can only be 2-bit, and cannot have any FX.
    The Layer, and the PSD naming conventions are extremely important. Those special characters are what make the Menu Set work.
    When done, Save into a new folder, withing the DVD Template folder hierarchy, and also do the PNG files, just like the DVD Templates have, so you can see them in PrE.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    PS - I think that Steve Grisetti covers a lot of this in his PrE and PSE book.

  • Solved: "Error in loading DLL" adding vb Reference to Photoshop CS5.1 (CS5.5)

    It took me a while to solve this so I thought I'd post the solution.
    On two machines (one 32-bit the other 64-bit) running the new Phonoshop CS5.1 that ships with CS5.5, I had trouble adding a reference in vb (vba) to the Photoshop Object Library for scripting:
    I would just get: Error in Loading DLL
    It appears that on both machines, the CS5.5 installer incorectly referenced the dll which is called "ScriptingSupport.8li" (not exactly a .dll-looking name but anyway ;-)
    The Adobe CS5.5 installer set the system registry to look for the file in:
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 (64 Bit)\Plug-ins\Automate
    or
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5.1\Plug-ins\Automate
    but installed the file to:
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 (64 Bit)\Plug-ins\Extensions
    or
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5.1\Plug-ins\Extensions
    I copied ScriptingSupport.8li from the Extensions folder to the Automate folder and it started working.
    Hope this helps someone else. :-)

  • Need advice - "Adobe photoshop CS5 has stopped working" upon startup

    Hi All,
    Hopefully someone can assist me with this as this seems to be a fairly common problem.
    Basically, upon starting up PS it comes up with the error message:
    "Adobe Photoshop CS5 has stopped working..."
    I'm just working off a surface pro 2 with 256gb ram, i5 processor (I think)
    I’ve installed no new drivers of late and not undertaken any system changes that I can think of that would affect the program.
    Funnily enough it’s the same problem across all the adobe suite e.g. illustrator and indesign both won’t start up (illustrator has the same message whereas indesign’s error message mentions that it requires a certain amount of free disk space).
    Hopefully that is enough info. Please ask if there is anything else that you would need to know in order to ascertain the problem.
    For reference here is the excerpt from the windows error log:
    Faulting application name: Photoshop.exe, version: 12.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x4bbc5b10

    My scenario and history:
    Windows Vista Ultimate and now Windows 7 Ultimate
    NVidia Quadro Fx 4500 driving 4 monitors total SLi on or off - makes no difference.  Drivers irrelevant.
    2 x Xeon 5160 (so total 4 cores)
    24Gb RAM
    PS CS 4 or 5
    4 monitors - - yep it is the 4 monitor thing.
    Fails everytime as you describe.
    Observation - If you Remote Desktop Connection onto the computer - and so in effect are using only ONE monitor - PS works fine.
    A WORKAROUND for 4 or 5 - I don't consider this a fix because you lose some functionality but it gets you 99% there and is the same workaround for CS4 or 5
    Go to<drive>:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64bit)\Plug-ins\Extensions\    (or CS4 - depending on version)
    Locate File:
    ScriptingSupport.8li
    Disable this extension by renaming the file with a tilde in front of the file name.  Thus:
    ~ScriptingSupport.8li
    Start Photoshop - it works and is mainly functional.
    The only real downside I have discovered is that disabling this scripting extension means you cannot use some of the built in scripts under FILE - SCRIPTS - the biggest PIA for me being the Contact Sheet builder no longer works.  But as I now use Lightroom to create contact sheets - this is not a big loss.  Other scripting functionality - I am sure is affected - but not to a point I find PS unusable.
    ADOBE - if you read this - it has been that extesion now for the last two editions of PS.

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 7   - Comparison with Picasa and Canon Zoom Browser

    I have recently bought a new computer and connected it to a USB hard drive which contained all my photos and a copy of an Adobe Photoshop Elements (APE) 4 catalog which permitted me to run APE 4 directly from the USB drive. The new computer runs on Windows 7 with Adobe Photoshop Elements 7. When I attempted to open the old catalog, created in APE 4 APE 4, APE 7 needed to convert it. The converted catalog then needed to reconnect with files and this took hours because APE seems to be incapable of sorting this out automatically. On the other hand Picasa 3 dealt with the matter in minutes and Canon Zoom Browser dealt with it in seconds. Why is this? What are the advantages of using APE 7 over Picasa 3 or Canon Zoom Browser?

    John McQuade wrote:
    I avoid keeping photos on the C Drive of my computer because of adverse past experiences of losing data when problems arose and it was necessary to reinstall Windows. I prefer to use two separate hard disc drives connected to my computer using  USB ports so that I have all photos and catalogs on each drive. PSE catalogs appear to be drive letter specific so that a catalog created on one drive will not function if simply copied to the other. In PSE-4 I overcame this problem by opening the copied catalog and changing all references to drive letters. In PSE-7 I am unable to open the database and my goal is to find a quick and efficient way of modifying a copied catalog so that it functions on a drive different to the one on which the catalog was created.
    Finally, and at long last, a kindred spirit that won't keep photos on the OS drive. I was told as recently as >> yesterday << that my post about saving photos anyplace else but  "C:/" was "non-sequitur".
    Second, I'm sort of accustomed to "USB drive", as a synonym for "flash drive", and "Ext HDD" referring to an external HDD, (this makes sense, at least in my twisted individual perception), so accordingly, I apologize for my knee-jerk lecture about it.  (In hindsight, perhaps the only child in me is expecting too much also).
    I never use external HDDs, but rather install additional HDDs internally to accomplish the same net result. My sensibilities here are, they are quite a bit less expensive, they do the same job, and you don't have addional s*** laying all over the place.
    IMO, you are overthinking the database issue. I get to say that since I have no such ability to do so, and additionally, I have never been unable to reconnect a catalog other than within the normal Windows environment.
    Therefore, I suggest changing the drive letter(s) to that of the old drive(s), and remain in blisslful ignorance as to whether PSE-7 is using the SN# or Drive letter to do its "dirty work".
    As Mr. Ellis has pointed out, you're trying to do too many things at once. I'm going to suggest an "experimental" fix which is sort of backwards from Mr. Ellis', but retains the same spirit.
    Install PSE-4 on the NEW machine! Insert its catalog file into its (PSE-4) correct folder. This location can be found by "Help" > "System Info".
    Upon installation, PSE-4 will generate a new catalog, "My Catalog", therefore you must change the old catalog's name, (say "My Catalog 2"), to avoid a conflict.
    You might have to change the "compatibility" mode for PSE-4 several times, before PSE-7 will be able to follow the file path.
    As an additional note, since PSE-7 is technically, (according to Adobe), "incompatible", you can match its compatibility mode with PSE-4's, at the onset. After you have stabilized the system, change PSE-7's mode back to whatever works best.
    If you need any more info on these operations, please feel free to post back.
    I would like to add, that my PSE-7 in Windows 7 runs poorly in comparision with the same program in the XP environment. This seems not to be "typical", but IMO, worth mentioning.
    Please also bear in mind that you can paste the entire catalog file into the "Open Catalog" dialog box, and PSE will place in its folder for you...!
    Then, assuming the HDD letters are the same, it will reconnect "instantly", or in the case of a PSE-4 ".psa" cat file, PSE-7 will convert it, then open it instantly.
    As an afterthought, by changing the drive letters, then pasting the .psa file into the "Catalog Open" dialog box, you do not have to make any additional installations of PSE, nor muck about in any database.

  • Can only access G5 iPhoto library via Adobe Photoshop

    Just tried to add 5 photos from a jumpdrive to my iPhoto library and now the library is inaccessible.  Photos are still there--they open via Preview or Adobe Photoshop CS2--but the library itself (iPhoto app) is BLANK.  7 years of photos (reference and documenting my paintings) gone.  I have just copied, via Finder, the last few folders from 2011 to the portable hard drive, so the photos are backed up.  My question: how to restore the iPhoto library so that application is useful? 
    G5 (non-Intel) OS 10.4.11

    Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
    What version of iPhoto are you using?

  • Using Adobe Photoshop CS5 Manual???

    When I purchased Adobe Photoshop CS4 I was able to purchase separately from Adobe "Using Adobe Photoshop CS4" which was a 688 page instruction manuual.  I tried ordering one for CS5 at Adobe store, but they said they didn't have one and offered me "Classroom in a Book". I am not looking for "Classroom in a Book" which is more of a training book, but a user manual/instruction book which I can use for reference when I have a question.  I am aware of the PDF help guide, but I am looking for a paper book.  Any thoughts on where I may find this book for CS5?   Is it possible Adobe is no longer offering this type of manual?
    Thanks,
    Matthew Kraus

    I'm glad I could help you, and your friends!
    But do search on your hard drive, there is an adobe help application that loads the content from the web, lets you load different help files, shows the PDF links, but also lets you show the comments.
    I'm currently in process of adding a lot of relevant info in the help files, and will also update the FAQs of this very forum, those resources indeed deserve more visibility.
    Another reason that the help file is on the web is that its content gets updated every now and then. So, do check regularly!
    To easily find the help files: Adobe.com > help > select your product, then click the Help link (usually the third one)
    Keep spreading the love, the world is much better that way

  • Help, cannot set references to Photoshop.Application in VBA

    Hello,
    I have used CS5 in the past and have had a well-functioning VBA program (running within Access 2010) that ran fine, opens 32-bit Photoshop, and controlled photoshop CS5 normally, allowing me to manipulate photos, read metadata, etc.  (It was my understanding that at least for CS5, scripting programs including VBA needed to run the 32 bit version of Photoshop, not the 64 bit version.)
    I installed CS6 about 6 months ago and the VBA program continued to work just fine, provided it still opened the 32 bit version. (I had to be sure I was not running 64 bit Photoshop when I started the VBA program).  CS5 was still installed but not being used.
    I just uninstalled CS5, leaving CS6 installed.  For some reason, this left the VBA program disrupted in that the References (which you set in the VBA code window with Tools > References) no longer appear to be valid.  I am unable to set a new Reference to Photoshop.Application and the program has become unusable.  That is, the "Available References" no longer list Adobe Photoshop CS6 Type Library or Adobe Photoshop CS6 Object Library.  I browsed to the the file C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)\TypeLibrary.tlb to add this reference manually.  The programs still does not compile (i.e., Dim appRef As New Photoshop.Application  causes an error "User Defined Type not defined").  I get the same failure to compile if I browse to and install a reference to the 32-bit version, C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6\TypeLibrary.tlb.  In the past, I also had a reference to the "Adobe Photoshop CS6 Object Library".  I have tried to manually set this to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6\Photoshop.exe or to the 64 bit version of Photoshop.exe, but these files are not accepted and I do not otherwise know the file location of the Object Library. 
    I very much need help from someone who knows how to fix this problem in transitioning from CS5 to CS6 for using VBA.
    Thank you,
    EGibbon

    There are global keys that get overwritten with each version of Photoshop. Photoshop.Application for example gets set for each install of Photoshop. When you uninstalled CS5 those keys got removed.
    Can you install CS6 again? You don't need to uninstall. Just install again if it will let you.
    I have a script that wil set them but I don't really like to use it on other folks machines as it messes with the registry and I don't want to make it worse for you.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS6/ Bridge & Lightroom Keyboard Shortcuts

    I would be grateful if someone could direct me to a pdf list showing keyboard shortcuts for Photoshop CS6, Lightroom and Bridge.
    Thanks

    For a reference to Adobe Photoshop's keyboard shortcuts, take a look at the new Photoshop CS6 Quick Reference Guide. It is in its beta form, but it is a great way to find shortcuts, as well as find a menu location that might have changed from CS5. We are looking for your feedback, which you can contribute on the site as well.

  • Which of the two monitors do you recommend for Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5:  EIZO CG 277 Coloredge o

    HI,
    Which of the two monitors do you recommend for Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5:
    EIZO CG 277 Coloredge or NEC PA-272W.
    Thanks in advance for your reply.

    It depends on where you are. Things are very different in Europe (Italy?) compared to the US situation.
    The price difference between comparable NEC/Eizo models in Europe actually goes in Eizo's favor. The regular NEC PA272 in Europe cannot be hardware calibrated (it has a firmware lock) and the comparable offering would be either the NEC Spectraview 272 or the Spectraview Reference 272. These are more expensive than the Eizo CG277.
    Note that the European PA272 can be hardware calibrated with the US Spectraview II software - but that software cannot be bought in Europe and has to be imported from the US.
    All these displays are top reference quality. As for calibration software, which is a very important part in the equation, my vote goes to Eizo's ColorNavigator (I have a CG246). It is a superb piece of well thought-out software. The US Spectraview II - which I also happen to have - is a very, very close second, but the European Spectraview Profiler software that you get with the EU NEC units isn't all that impressive.
    Photoshop supports a 10 bit display pipeline, with either display, as long as you have a video card that also supports it. Lightroom doesn't support it.
