Viewing original files after editing

When I edit a photo, the edited version is saved and can be viewed in Photo Well/Organize/Calender windows. I know the original is still saved without any changes made to it, and I can find it in the same folder when I go "my picture - adobe - named folder." But in Photo Well/Organize/Calender windows, the original picture no longer appears. So I can't make any new changes on the original (I can only work from the edited photo). Could someone help me with this problem?
I apoligize if this issue has been posted elsewhere already.

Perhaps this needs to be a different discussion topic, but I thought I'll buy CS2 mostly because I don't know what Photoshop Element is capable for. I've used CS2 on other people's computers and had lots of fun with Photoshop on it. But I have no training on computer graphics and I know I'm not fully utilizing the program. Plus, I don't know if I'll ever use other programs on CS2. So I am open to the idea of buying Element and I did wonder if Element will be enough for me, but I just haven't able to find out what are the differences between Photoshop Element and Photoshop on CS2. Only things sales people at stores could tell me were that CS2 has more functions and has multiple programs :(

How to sync two excel files, the content is the same in both files after edit.

I have two excel files, which are data and edit by multi users, how can I sync the master files to the copy files after edit?
Is this operation required VBA? marco?

Hi,
Your request could be done via VBA code. Here are two ideas.
One:
Syncing the data from master file to the copy file without opening copy file. Sample code
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
Dim cnn As Object, SQL$, s$
Select Case True
Case Target.Value = ""
s = "null"
Case IsDate(Target.Value)
s = "#" & Target.Value & "#"
Case IsNumeric(Target.Value)
s = Target.Value
Case Else
s = "'" & Target.Value & "'"
End Select
Set cnn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
cnn.Open "provider=microsoft.jet.oledb.4.0;extended properties='excel 8.0;hdr=no';data source=" & ThisWorkbook.Path & "\test folder\Book2.xls"
SQL = "update [Sheet1$" & Target.Address(0, 0) & ":" & Target.Address(0, 0) & "] set f1=" & s
cnn.Execute (SQL)
cnn.Close
Set cnn = Nothing
End Sub
Two:
Saving the master file as copy file before closing. Reference:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff194765.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
If you have any further question about coding, I recommend you post the question to the MSDN forum for Excel

How do I import images from my hard drive without losing resolution? My original files after import are significantly smaller. What should I do?

How do I import images from my hard drive without losing resolution? My original files after import are significantly smaller. What should I do?

Hi Keith, and all others chiming in, I do have the correct option checked in advanced settings telling iPhoto to copy the images into the library. What is a refernced library? Perhaps this is where I am getting confused. I exported my entire photo library from an old iMac5 to my external hard drive, from there I attempted to import the entire library to my new iMac. Am I overlooking an obvious and easy way to import from the hard drive to the new iMac--I dragged the entire photo pholder from the hard drive to the open window of iPhoto on the new computer. Now, I only get preview file sizes in iPhoto, unless I have my external drive open. Perhaps I need to import the original images from the hard drive in a different way...?! (This is making me feel pretty stupid.)

What do you do with source file after edit and export

Hi
i wounder what people do with the source file after edit, they are taking up a lot of space on my computer. I can hardly bring myself to delete them, but neither can i save them, beacuse of space on Hdd. have thought of, only export those clip you have used in your timeline, uncompressed?

If you don't need them at all, you can delete them. People usually store them in external drives if they need them.

Didn't really get this part. Do you mind explaining this?

Missing original files after attempting to move all files to external drive

After reading numerous threads regarding iTunes not being able to locate the original file after moving it to an external drive, I'm in a slightly different boat since most seem to be able to "locate" their original music. It appears the order in which this is done is particularly important and I suspect this is where I screwed up. I posted this earlier in response to another thread mistakenly under iTunes for Windows, but now I'm realizing where I may have made my main mistake.
Over a year ago, I had moved my iTunes folder from my Music folder from the HD to my 250 GB external drive. I did not rename it. Kept it the same name. Went into the Advanced folder in iTunes Preferences and chose to use the external drive as my source for music and everything worked fine. Don't remember consolidating and it appears based on the way that I did it, I may not have had to.
Recently I found a folder in my Music folder on the Mac's HD titled iTunes and assumed this was holding the original files and that my iTunes wasn't actually running from my external drive at all, but that it had been using the HD on the Mac the whole time (didn't realize that it kept a copy there). So, I took that file and moved it to the external drive. Not sure if I "replaced" it or "deleted" the old one on the external drive (it was late and it was a few days ago). Now I'm realizing that I probably took out my true original files as now all that is there is about 16 music files under "iTunes Music". I tried consolidating and this didn't make any difference since it just consolidated all of the same files. If I open iTunes and hold the option key down that doesn't make any difference either since it still can't find the originals.
Now that I realize what I've done, thinking back I should have been more surprised that it was only 1.3GB of music when really my library is closer to 40 GB. I've just lost a lot of music. Is there anyway to retrieve the rest of the original library or am I cooked?
Many thanks for any help.

Why does imovie need to keep the original file after I have edited?

I record basketball games with my ipad and I keep the footage but cut the video so I can make highlights for the season. Thing is, these original videos are usually close to 10GB each and over an hour long.
I might have 5 minutes of highlights when Im done.
So to save space in my Imovie projects, I kept the clips i want and deleted the videos. When I came back to add more video to my season project, it said missing file.
Does it need to save the entire original media after I cut the video? I dont want to keep every game on my computer, I just want to keep what I cut and throw the rest out. But Imovie is asking for the original file.
Any solutions for this, or do I need to upgrade to a more professional editor?

Hi
You are using a - Non Destructing Video Editing program.
Meaning that Your movie in making ==> Project - DO NOT contain any movie or material at all - BUT only a text document pointing to where material is stored e.g. folder iMovie Event's, other hard disks, DVDs, CDs or USB-memories.
And if any of these storage's are moved or disconnected - iMovie get's lost and can not View Your Project.
iMovie - do not have any "Media Managing Function" as FinalCut Pro (as it can reconnect moved material and create a complete contaning folder)
Even when You Shared Your movie - there still will be links back to material - to make it possibly to further editing's, and Sharing in other resolutions.
This is the cost of working this way. So I use an external hard disk for storage
- MUST BE - Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted - UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange will not work for VIDEO
- Moving Video Event's - MUST BE DONE WITHIN iMovie Application - ELSE connections will be broken - meaning HARD to IMPOSSIBLY to mend later. Be aware !
All other material I store in Folders named as movie project + date - all from start on the external Drive.
Yours Bengt W

When is my RAW file changed? Upon import? Upon viewing? Only after edit list started?

All:
I now have a "second copy" made in a separate hard drive when I import files from my camera cards. I want an untouched file for possible comparative "developing" or rendering in DxO or PhotoNinja. Might convert everything to DNG someday.
Asking LR to do this at the top of the Import pane is I assume, creates a copy *and* makes NO changes to the RAW data.
OTOH, Lightroom will offer me the image in Camera Raw to view, create, and interpret my edit/develop decisions. But I have been thinking about this and need to ask all of you: Is that CR2 file in my dated Lightroom database folders a changed file in any way from the RAW file while it was still on the card? The decision to hold edit data in sidecar files plays a part in this, right? External sidecar files means even after edits I can copy the CR2 file and use it in other [RAW]converter's software?
jonathan7007

Being a "non-destructive editor", Lightroom does not (cannot) change your CR2 files....with one exception, which is when/if you choose to edit the capture time of an image, in which case the changed date is written back into the file header's EXIF field. But apart from that, it is never ever changed.....all edits are stored primarily in the catalog's database, and optionally you can have them written into XMP sidecars. Having the XMP sidecar would allow you to open the raw file in another XMP-capable Adobe program, outside Lightroom, and see the edits applied. Not sure if other non-Adobe raw converters would be able to interpret all of that XMP info.
For non-proprietary raw files (e.g. DNG, Tiff), you can also choose to save the XMP data but in this case it would be written directly into the files header, not into sidecar files. The underlying image data is still, however, unchanged.

View original media after clicking on video clip icon?

Hello
Does anyone know if it's possible to change the FCS configuration so that I can view the original media after clicking on video clip icon? Normally this opens proxy files but I would like to change the default behavior.
thanks
sj

I don't know if you change the behavior by default.
But you can for example
1. Right click the asset and select View - Original Media
2. Click and drag the asset on top of the Quicktime icon, If the device you're Original Media is located is configure for Edit-In-Place.
Hope this helps.

Saving Photo File After Editing

Once I edit a raw image in Photoshop Elements 5.0 and then try to go back to the organizer from editor, the program requires about 4 clicks to save the file. If I'm editing multiple files, I must do each of these clicks for each of the files.
Does anyone know how to streamline this save process?

Hi All -- I'm going to ask this question again as the issue continues to vex me.
I'm now using LR 2.2. The changes flushed to a image file (I use DNG) reflect the current 'before settings' in the develop module. In order to get recent develop module changes into the image file, one has to first execute "Copy After's Settings to Before", then save the image settings (cmd-S). That seems totally reasonable.
Here's my problem. I visit lots of images making edits. I don't always remember to "Copy After's Settings to Before" after making edits. In order to determine which image's I've made changes to I step through all my images in the develop module using the before/after view, executing "Copy After's Settings to Before". This is a big hassle. I need a better approach. First I don't always know which images I've edited and I usually don't care anyway. What I want is a macro that will perform "Copy After's Settings to Before" for multiple images. Is there such a feature or is this missing from LR?

View original Files in Finder

Hello,
I just updated from iPhoto 5 to iPhoto 6 and I have a little problem:
when I right-click on a thumbnail (Ctrl+click) of my library, the option "View original in the Finder" appear in grey ... so I have to go myself in the Finder to retreive the original file...
Can somebody help me?
Tks,

iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

The Show Original File is grey because the image has not been modified. In this case the menu option is Show File. Once you edit an image then the Show Original File becomes availble.

Is there any benefit to keep the RAW file after editing outside Lightroom creates a TIFF

When working with RAW files in Lightroom and you choose to edit in Photoshop, the only option is "Edit a copy with Lightroom Adjustments" (Edit Original is grayed out). This creates a .TIFF so after you come back from Photoshop you now have two copies of the photo--the RAW file and a TIFF version.
In my normal workflow, I make additional edits to the TIFF file in addition to the changes Photoshop made so I'm left with a "out dated" version of the RAW file. Is there any benefit to keeping the RAW file at that point? I'm doubling my disk usage by keeping it.
Fire away.....

Answering this question:
This got me wonderig why LR turns my 25-30mb CR2 RAW files into 80-95 mb TIFF files when it sends them to Photoshop for editing but Photoshop can open the same 25-30 RAW file in DNG format and save it as a 25-30 mb TIFF. Why are the TIFF's LR creates 3x larger than the ones created by PS?
Camera RAW file formats are compressed to a small file size using manufacturer proprietary information about the image sensor pixel layout. This provides a more efficient loss-less file compression algorithm than TIFF's LZW or ZIP compression algorithms. LZW or ZIP compression is not used when Lightroom exports and opens an image in Photoshop for editing, but you certainly have that option when saving the file after applying your PS edits. DNG files using loss-less compression can produce a file size slightly smaller than RAW format, but I have no experience with DNG.
Answering this question:
CS3 can't read Canon .CR2 RAW files (at least mine can't unless there is a plugin of some kind).
Support for newer camera models like your Canon 7D are only added to the then current (and later version) Adobe Camera RAW Converter and Lightroom. Newer Adobe Camera RAW converter versions (6.3) are not supported in older version of Photoshop like CS3. It is the nature of business marketing and also due to the large expense to support older application versions with "new" plug-in features. It would be a support nightmare!
Hypothetical Example:
"Why doesn't Adobe Camera RAW 10.3 work properly with my Canon 1600 D MK XV 45 Megapixel camera in Photoshop CS3?"

Steps or path to revert to original file after Media Encoder has shortened video length by 15min

I was trying to encode the video to decrease the upload time and instead reduced video length by 15 minutes. I dont know how or what happened. after selecting encode. It seemed to do what it was supposed to and then upon viewing the movie i realized much of the import video is not there... I would appreciate any steps or measures i can try to rever to the original file. i have the original on an sd card but, even when i right click and play its the 5 min video instead of 20

What apps are you using to open the original file that you copies to your local drive (list all that you have tried? QT, VLC, WMP, PPro)?
You say original was 20 min and is now 5 min. I don't see how AME or other Adobe apps would have done this to original file.
I'm wondering if there was an issue with file before it came into AME and AME encoded what all the other media player are seeing which is only 5 minutes.
In Windows, if you right click on the file and get properties, how long does windows think it is?

Viewing ePub files after export

I am new to InDesign running a new installation of CS5.5 with latest update on a new Mac. Whenever I export a file to ePub format, the file is displayed in Text Edit, but it is empty. Only after viewing the file in a different viewer did I realize that I, in fact, did have content in my ePub file. Obviously, TextEdit does not display ePub files. True? Is there an alternative to viewing exported ePub files through InDesign?
My apologies if this is a duplicate post; I received an error message when I first tried to post this message.

There are several epub viewer for the Computer.
Eg. Adobe has Digital Editions:

Can't find original files after uploading photos through iPhoto

I'm a recent "convert," and yesterday I uploaded some pictures directly through iPhoto for the first time. Then I tried to log onto Facebook to create a photo album and couldn't find the original photos in my "Pictures" file or anywhere else. I found I could access the "iPhoto Library" option but it distorted my photos by zooming in on the faces of people in the picture!
Where are my original files?

iPhoto used to place the photos in a standard directory "iPhoto Library" but this has now become a package, which hides access to the contents--just like in many applications--to keep you from rearranging them. You (or I) cannot directly access the contents but the "package" is just a specially marked directory. If you know a filename of one of the pictures or albums then you can search for that and it will find the file/photo. Then you have access to the directory and can go up, down, or over. It uses the same names in several of them.
The head shots you are seeing may be the "Faces" feature of the new iPhoto. They will be in a separate directory, as well as directories for original, modified, and others. Interesting, it did not find the photo names on the backup disk. Differing degrees of hiddenness? You can get there with Terminal. This is what I found in mine--notice the thumbnails used in album views:
2001 Dir.data Thumb64Segment.data
2002 Library.data ThumbJPGSegment.data
2003 Library.iPhoto face.db
2004 Library6.iPhoto face_blob.db
2005 Library6.iPhoto.bak iPhoto Selection
2006 Metadata Backup iPhoto.ipspot
AlbumData.xml Modified iPhotoAux.db
AlbumData2.xml Originals iPhotoLock.data
Auto Import Roll 249 iPhotoMain.db
Data Roll 251
Data.noindex ThemeCache
Your best bet is to select the photos you want and export them where you can have the JPEGs.
After import, I export so I can use shootShifter to adjust the names to be their exposure dates in yymmdd hrmise format. (You did set the camera's date.)

How to edit and save a file ( after edit in CS6 in LR) to keep it in LR collection where it was?

I understood that I could select a file from a LR collection, start editing it in LR then pass it to CS6 (I chose the option to make a copy and keep the LR changes) , makes the changes in CS6 and save it from CS6 (Saved it as a PSD file) .Afterwards I can see 2 files (one being the original file,the other the PSD file saved in CS6 in the original folder of the file, which is fine ) but the file seems to have disappeared from the LR collection. I am new to LR.

When you edit in CS6, do you do a "Save" or "Save As..."? You need to do a Save and not a "Save As..." You also can't change the file type from whatever it was when Lightroom created the file.
Works for me when I do it that way.
