Trouble importing from Photoshop CS2

I'm have trouble importing my photoshop files to iphoto, the pictures come in black, and when I open them they are inverted?
Any help out there?

What color space are the pics? iPhoto supports RGB, if they are another - such as CMYK or GrayScale this will cause problems.

Imports from Photoshop CS2 after editing

I frequently use Photoshop CS2 to edit my digital photographs; however, I like to use iPhoto to view or otherwise manipulate the images into different albums, slideshows, or uploads to my .mac account. When I open iPhoto to import a photo edited in photoshop, I get an "Unreadable file" error message stating that the requested image is "an unrecognized file type or that the does not contain valid data." I can't get the edited photos added to the iPhoto library.
I've tried importing photos saved in several different formats - jpeg, RAW, TIFF - with no luck.
Is it possible to import an image into iPhoto from Photoshop? If so, what am I doing wrong? thank you.

Kyle:
Also if you set iPhoto to use PS as the editor of choice by going into iPhoto's General preferences and selecting PS in the "Edit photo:" menu. Then when you double click on a thumbnail, PS will open, you can edit the picture and save it. This way the thumbnail will be updated as well.

MetaData import from Photoshop CS2 Bridge to Lightroom??

Dear all,
I have 2 questions.
1) I am trying to figure out whether Metadata import from Bridge to LR will be supported?
2) I am not satisfied with Bridge as a Data Asset Management tool and due to an urgent project have to organize all of my >250 Giga data. ASAP. Any suggestions for a workaround until LR is released for purchase?
Thanks in advance,
Siana

1. Yes
2. Can't help with that, sorry.

Import from Photoshop Album PSA to Lightroom (same in Elements?)

Hi,
here my experience with the import from Photoshop Album to Lightroom.
1. Tags and Collection import
> OK
2. Tagging of the imported images
> NOT ALL of the imported pictures where Tagged!!!
This is really annoying, as you have no way to know it
before you search for them.
3. Import of the edited version of the pictures
> When a picture as been edited in Album, only the ORIGINAL one
is imported in Lightroom, not the edited one.
> At least, the edited one could have been imported with the original
in a stack!!
Import functionality is crap for now if you ask me.
What is your experience?

Because I've used PSA, PS and now CS2 and 3 for years, I had really hoped--indeed, assumed--that LR would be an elegant and trouble-free solution with which to migrate a large and growing catalog away from the slowness and lack of view in PSA, as well as adding RAW-handling ability (since storage dropped through the floor, I shoot JPEG and RAW by default). While the LR interface is pretty and the fleur-de-lis whimsical, LR is in my admittedly-limited experience neither elegant nor trouble-free from a database perspective. Perhaps in a few versions it will be, but it isn't now. The PSA import was a joke, operations are slow, and despite preference settings, it fires up whenever I hook up anything which XP considers to be an external drive. I have since licensed a previously-installed demo copy of IMatch, which I'd been holding off doing based on my flased LR assumption. Importing PSA to IMatch requires some simple under-the-hood work in Access (there are posted routines to accomplish this), but once that was done the import was flawless, with all PSA tags in their own cubbyhole and associated with the proper images. Why Adobe didn't facilitate this is a real head-scratcher.

Import from photoshop to fce

I'm trying to import a title page that I created from photoshop cs2 into fce. I kept it as a .psd file and when I import it , the color is no longer there - it is grayscale.
Any suggestions?
Susie

It was created in photoshop on the same mac I'm using for the video. The contents are wording, a background and a colored border. If I flatten the image and save as a jpeg, the color appears. I wanted to keep as a psd in case I needed to make changes and I've been able to do similar titles in the past.
Any suggestions?

Cannot direct upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 Extended

Despite the information in various spots on Adobe's website, it appears that it's not possible to simply upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 Extended. After entering the CS5 serial number, the installer asks for the serial number of a "qualifying product". This includes a dropdown list that only has
Photoshop CS5
Photoshop CS4 Extended
Photoshop CS3 Extended
Here's the view:
Entering the CS2 serial number == fail.
A call to Adobe support get past this issue, basically reading out a challenge/response from the installer to the guy on the phone. But this seems remarkably stupid to me. Was it really more effective to force me (and anyone else following this upgrade path) to call tech support just to install the software I just past $350 for? And if this was the plan, why not SAY SO ON THE ADOBE WEBSITE?!?
Has anyone else run into this issue? If so, was calling tech support the only way out?

You are correct in wishing Adobe made it clear that you do need to go through Customer Service to accomplish this.
Most users make the purchase through Adobe and straighten this out before installing.

How do I import from Photoshop elements 12 to Lightroom for Mac OS?

How do I import from Photoshop elements 12 to Lightroom for Mac OS?

I never did it from Windows to Mac.
I assume you need to move everything to Mac PSE12 (or PSE 13) by downloading the 30 day free trial of PSE 12 or 13, and then once everything is working, use File->Upgrade Photoshop Elements Catalog in Lightroom. Your tags and albums will remain intact. I believe the face recognition transfers as well to keywords, but the location in the photo of the face will be gone as Lightroom has no such feature.

Can I upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 after installing Lion?

Can I upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 after installing Lion? Or should I have done it before installing Lion?

I think you are missing my point.
For the last many editions of the creative suite they have each been completely independent. There is no "going over a previous version. Each version stands on its own and is a clean install — as long as you haven't installed that specific version before.
And "obsolete" is a pretty relative term. With products as complex as the creative suite there are often features (or even whole applications) that change between versions. Many people I know keep earlier versions around, just for that very reason.

Problem upgrading from Photoshop CS2 to CS4 Extended

I purchased the retail box Photoshop CS4 Extended Upgrade (Windows) from a retail store ($349.99 + tax). I am upgrading from Photoshop CS2 and this is the version that the Adobe website says to purchase for this upgrade path. The problem is that CS4 doesn't see my installed, working, activated, and registered CS2 installation so it brings up the next screen offering to allow me to install it as a trial version OR list my qualifying product and serial number. The way that it offers to let me enter my qualifying product is via a drop down box with a single entry of CS3 Extended. No way of entering my CS2 there and it doesn't like my CS2 serial number entered with a CS3 product being shown there (says it isn't a valid CS3 serial number...of course it isn't). Does anyone know how to get this thing to install? Adobe tech support is gone until Monday and then I'll be at work, unable to try anything they might suggest.
Why does Adobe make upgrades so painful? I remember CS2 was a PITA and took Adobe tech support a week to figure out how to get it to install.

No, this shouldn't be extended to extended (I wouldn't expect to shell out $350 twice for extended). This is Adobe P/N 65015396 which their website says is for PhotoShop CS, CS2, CS3, and CS3 upgrades and retails for $350. The face of the box is identified as Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended Windows and the side of the box only says that I must have an "eligible older version of Adobe or Macromedia software." It also says to check the website, which says this P/N is what to buy for my upgrade path. A mess? YES!!!

Importing From photoshop to flash

After importing from photoshop to flash to create a website, the background image that i had within photoshop was set to 1304x700 pixels but when i imported it into flash the image changed to the canvas size that i had made the document in photoshop which was 1000x700 pixels. Now i can change the size of the image when it has been imported into flash to 1304x700 but it obviously messes up my pic quality.
Can someone please help me lol im new to this. I might go mad shortly, ive tried importing it three times now.
Thanks in advance to anyone that helps me.

Upgrade CS2 standard from Photoshop CS2

Hello,
I've bought a second-hand imac with CS2 standard, the guy which sold it to me has reinstalled OS so I have to re-install everything... Photoshop CS2 is installed successfully but when I want to install the CS2-standard upgrade it doesn't recognize the serial from Photoshop CS2! It should work cause it did before! (note: the owner who worked with it has deceased and the guy which sold it to me didn't know anything about mac; it are legal versions for sure!).
I really hope someone can help me out cause I can't contact adobe right now!
Thanx...

Do you own the software or did it come with the computer you bought?
If the latter it is basically pirate software you need a letter of transfer from the previous owner.

Why is everything I import from Photoshop pixelated?

I'm using both Adobe After Effects CS5 and Adobe Photoshop CS5 and no matter what I import from Photoshop, wheather it'd be an image or text or anything, it is always pixelated.. It has nothing to do with the size because no matter what the scale is, it's always pixelated.. I'll create an image in Photoshop and then save it as either a .jpeg or a .png file and when I import them to After Effects they are very pixelated to the point where you can't make out what the image is.. Is there a setting I need to change or something? I need help fast.. Please help Adobe Community!

FOR NOW? Hmmmmm, that's a telling comment. Perhaps its genesis will be revealed at NAB.
Frankly, I don't know one way or the other. I haven't read many of the emails waiting at home from Adobe because I don't get on my home email very frequently.

How to import B & W from Photoshop CS2

Hi, I'm new to this forum, so be gentle! <g>
I'm trying to make a slideshow, mixing color and black-and-white images. All of these images are scanned, from prints or slides. The b&w images are then converted from 16-bit RGB to 8-bit grayscale, then edited in Photoshop CS2, then imported into iPhoto.
(Just as a sidenote of possibly dubious relevance, the color images begin digital life as 16-bit, the grayscale as 8-bit.)
These images look fine as 8-bit grayscale images in CS2, but when I import them into iPhoto, either in a batch, or individually, they show up as black rectangles. If I click on the rectangle, I see a negative of my image.
This used to work ok, before I upgraded both to CS2 and iPhoto 6. How can I get this to work again?
I have both a 15-inch G4 Powerbook, and a dual 2.7 GHz G5 PowerMac, running the current system and the same version of all software. The PB has 2 GB of RAM, the tower 3.5 GB.

Hi! Thanx for your response.
It is not clear that he has imported it as wmv or pdf, but the slideshow has to be imported in such a manner that it can still be edited (Captions, effects etc.)
Creating a wmv or pdf will not allow the same.
Any Ideas?

IPhoto Won't Import JPGs from Photoshop CS2

Hello,
I find that if I save a JPG from PS CS2, it will open in Preview, and other applications, but will not import to iPhoto. I have read the other posts here on this topic, but they have not addressed my experience.
For me, it does not matter whether ".jpg" is added or not. If I open the file in Preview, and simply re-save it, with no other changes, it will import to iPhoto as usual.
Thoughts?
Thanks!
Michael Morrison

Hello,
Thanks for your thoughts.
I do have color management turned on, and the profile is Adobe 1998, rather than sRGB. When I re-save the file in Preview, I am also saving it with Adobe 1998, so it does not appear to be the presence/absence of a profile, nor the type of profile (sRGB or Adobe 1998).
Further, the article you suggested indicates that this is a problem related only to Power PCs, and I have this trouble on botht Power PCs and Intel machines.
Further thoughts?
Thanks again,
Michael Morrison
