Transferring photos in aperture to photoshop

How do I transfer photos in Aperture to photoshop on Macbook Pro?
Thanks

Thank you for that prompt answer. It has answered part of my query.
It is part of a wider issue which is how to get photos taken on an iPhone into Photoshop. It seems from what I have try to find out that you can only take photos from the iPhone into Aperture or iPhoto first. I have not found any solutions without going into these first.
thanks

  • How can I swap or cut & paste a head from one photo into another for a holiday photo using aperture or photoshop?

    I've got an almost perfect family photo that I need to swap one face in as my son was not looking at the camera and I can't redo the shoot.  Anyone know how to take a headshot from one pic and swap it into another using Aperture or Photoshop?  Thanks!

    select the head with one of Photoshop's selection tools
    When doing this, I find it quite helpful to create an intermediate image with a transparent background that contains only the head to be pasted into the second image. First I paste the head onto this transparent background, scale it, rotate it or skew it to make it fit into the other image, adjust the lighting, then select it.
    To be able to paste the head seemlessly into the second image (and without aliasing effects), I make the border of the selection soft (⌥⌘D); my Photoshop has a german interface, so I am not sure about the english localization, this command must be something like "selection -> modify selection -> soft border".
    I would not bother to get the lighting and color excactly right in Photoshop, that is  far easier with the "dodge" and "burn" brushes and color adjustments in Aperture.
    To do this completely in Aperture, you would have first to combine both images into one (for example by creating a book page), then use the retouche->clone tool to stamp the head from one image to the other. I use this occasionally to stamp a face into a flower bud or for  similar effects. However, for this to work you need a plain background and nearly circular shapes to be pasted.

  • Getting photos from Aperture to Photoshop

    I've been trying to figure out how to get pictures from Aperture to Photoshop. I can't access Aperture directly and if I save a picture to the desktop, then it turns into a jpeg when I open it in Photoshop. I'l a fairly new PS user, any sugestions? And yes, my whole system has slowed down with Snow Leopard.

    Thank you so much, just couldn't figured that out. Do you know how to access camera raw in photoshop? I've watched some tutorials on PS and it shows different ways to make adjustments to pictures using camera raw, but I can't figure out where on the menu it is.

  • Exporting Photos From Aperture to Photoshop Elements for Layer-Editing

    Back when I paired iPhoto with PSE to do layer editing, it was easy to export the first layer-picture from iPhoto, then click-and-drag the second photo directly on top of the first in PSE, then 'stretch to fit'.
    I've since moved to Aperture 3, and although I can 'edit in Photoshop Elements' the first picture, I can't drag or export so that it superimposes ready for opacity adjustment and effects...

    What happens if you select both images in Aperture, and then click to Edit in External Editor?

  • Transferring photos in Photoshop 11

    Have just transferred photos from old to new computer. Photos transferred OK but folder names did not. It would save a lot of work if folder names could be transferred as well. Running Photoshop 11 and Windows 8.1
    Any help would be appreciated

    The best method is to use backup and restore, starting in the Organizer on the old machine.

  • Transferring photos from Lightroom 5 to Adobe Photoshop Elements 12

    I have over 4k photos installed On Lightroom 5. I recently purchased and installed Adobe Photoshop Elements 12. Can you please
    advise easiest way to export photos from Lightroom to Photoshop? Am having significant difficulty. Thanks

    You can't do it that way. Any attempt to poke around in the iphoto library from outside iphoto is very likely to damage the library and cause you to lose your photos, so PSE won't let you. You have two choices:
    1. Set PSE as your external editor, send the photos from iphoto, and save them without changing the name or format (you may need to adjust the editor prefs>Saving Files>On First Save to let you do this). Then iphoto will remember your original and the last edited version.
    Be sure to choose this file in Applications>Adobe Photoshop Elements 10>Support files as your external editor, not the one at the top level of the PSE 10 folder in Applications:
    2. Export the photos from iphoto, use File>Open in the PSE editor to open the images and then save them with whatever changes to name or format you like, and reimport the saved images to iphoto as new files. This way you can save as many versions as you like.

  • Transferring photos from laptop to Itunes

    I had to do a systems restore on Iphone. The only thing that bothered me was losing the photos, i found most of them stored on my laptop. Is there any way of transferring them to Itunes and thus onto my Iphone when i sync?

    They don't get physically copied into iTunes, instead when you have your iPhone connected to iTunes, one of the tabs on the iPhone's window should be photos - you should then be able to specify which folder(s) to sync photos from. The iPhone iOS 4 manual (page 60) says :
    +Photos Pane+
    +On a Mac, you can sync photos with Aperture or iPhoto 4.0.3 or later, and videos with iPhoto 6.0.6 or later. On a PC, you can sync photos with Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.0 or later. You can also sync photos and videos from any Mac or PC folder that contains images.+
    As I don't have a Mac (and therefore don't have Aperture nor iPhoto) and I don't have PS Elements on my pc I have to sync from folders, which have to be subfolders off the same 'master' folder i.e. I can't sync c:\folder1\pics1 and c:\folder2\pics2, I would first have to move/copy pics2 to be a subfolder of 'folder1'

  • Edit from aperture to photoshop

    When I edit my photos from aperture 3 to photoshop it transfers from a raw file to a tiff file. Is there an easy way to transfer a raw file from aperture to Photoshop and maintain it as a raw file. I presently have to export the raw file from aperture to my desktop and then drag it to Photoshop.

    That is the only way to do it. Aperture is designed to utilize the RAW file as the Master which will never be altered. Therefore it does not send it to external editors, but instead sends a lossless format file that includes the RAW interpretation of Aperture, along with any edits you make.
    Why do you feel the need to use the RAW in Photoshop, btw?

  • Picture file handling between Aperture and Photoshop

    Hello
    I have transferred several photos via "edit in external editor" from aperture to photoshop.
    In photoshop I made different operations:
    a) just looking (no special manipulations) -> no saving
    b) manipulations on a particular photo -> saving via "save" in PS
    c) combination of different photos -> saving via "save as" in PS
    Meanwhile I have learned, that option C just saves the file in the file system, but does not update the database entry in aperture. I have also found different versions of photos in the file system, which I had just opened in PS (case a). "File system" means in that case, that they are under the folder "masters", when I drill down the Aperture Data File. Case b seems to work OK.
    I have now different questions:
    why are photos, which I have just opened in PS, still in the file system (even when I have deleted them) in Aperture? Seems that those versions are kept. Is'nt that blowing up my database? (case a)
    when I reimport pictures from case c, are they stored a second time in aperture or does the aperture database point to the particular file (because the file already is under the folder "masters")
    Any feedback to data handling between PS and Aperture?
    Thanks in advance,
    Vanillia

    IMO today you are very likely to be best served by the inexpensive Photoshop Elements. However, Adobe's world is changing at the end of this month (March 27) with official announcement of MacIntel versions. You may want to re-ask this question then, being careful of April Fool's Day wags.

    Also, version 2 of Aperture is expected in the next few months, and I will be surprised if simple color tools such as you describe are not included.

  • I transferred photos fr laptop to iPad. When I transferred more, the ones fr before were gone. This happened every time I added more. How can I save them on my iPad?

    When I transferred photos fr my laptop to iPad, the photos put on the iPad before, we're gone. this happened every time I put more on. How can I stop this happening and save the photos on my iPad?

    Since this is not icloud related, I suggest you post over in the iTunes forums.  Or the iPhoto forum if that is what you are using, or the Aperture forum (these two are for mac users).
    It would also help if you tell us whether the laptop is mac or pc.

  • Aperture or Photoshop Elements?

    I am an amateur photographer and photography is a keen hobby of mine. I have recently been pondering the idea of purchasing a photo-editing package from the app store and have come across both Aperture and Photoshop elements. I enjoyed using iPhoto but it felt a little limited. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Aperture and Photoshop target different needs - if you are a serious photographer you should get them both, see         Re: how to combine breketed photos in one like in photoshop                                            
    Aperture serves two purposes:
    It is an excellent tool to manage and organize huge photo libraries for fast retrieval, tagging, geocoding, and efficient storage of different versions of the same photo.
    And it has excellent image processing tools to develope high resolution photos (raw, tiff, jpeg) into a rendered version and to adjust the photo (noise reduction, contrast, retouche, white balance and color color correction, sharpening, ...).
    But Aperture deals only with image files taken with a digital camera, not with graphics. It does not support transparency for example. For this the program offers an interface to use plug-ins or external editors, like Photoshop or the free Gimp.
    Photoshop is a graphics compositing program; it offers basic image processing tools, but you can use it to add graphics annotations to your image or two combine parts of different images - it is great to work with transparency, layers, arbitrary shaped selections.
    I use Aperture do organize my photos - my Aperture library now includes all images I own, reaching back to 1910, the including the first photos my greatgrandparents have taken. Developing the raw images or adjusting jpegs Aperture is very intuitive and easy to do. And if I need to do compositing I use a plug-in or Photoshop.
    You may want to have a look at Gimp. It can do similar things as Photoshop, but is free. Also, have a look at the Aperture tutorials on the Aperture Support page: Aperture Support

  • How do I transfer photos from aperture and iPhoto to bridge?

    How do I transfer photos from Aperture and iPhoto to Adobe Bridge.  I am using Photoshop CS6.  Many of my original photos were stored as raw files.

    Here's how to access Mac iPhoto images for use in Photoshop
    and so that they may be viewed by choosing that folder in Bridge..
    1. In the Finder, navigate to Users > [user name} > Pictures > iPhoto Library.  
    2. Control-click (Right-click) the iPhoto Library file and choose Show Package Contents.
    3. A Finder window opens that shows the contents. The Masters folder (or called Originals folder) contains all of the photographs that are in iPhoto.
    Photoshop cannot access this folder, but if you make a duplicate of the folder, the dupe will be accessible -- so:
    4. Control-click (Right-click) the folder named Masters (or Originals) and choose Duplicate.
    5, Drag the duplicate folder which is named "Masters copy" or “Originals copy” from the iPhoto Library Finder window to the Desktop.
    6. Open images in Photoshop from file on desktop or view them in Bridge.
    7  Rename the folder and move it elsewhere (probably to the Pictures folder), if desired. 
    And here is a Forum thread related to Aperture-to-Bridge
