Why are PNG & PSD files coming in disproportionately?

Just started using Muse; very experienced PS user. Using PS CC I created a logo at both Hi-rez (600dpi) as a layered PSD and a low-res version Saved for Web as PNG (needed transparency). When I Place the Layered PSD, it asks if I want a Composite or specific layers. Tried both, both came in as empty boxes. (?) With PNG, when Placed, the proportions were distorted and I usually, could make it larger or smaller but not the correct proportions, or if I could re-preportion it, I had no way to tell when it was 100% x 100%. Holding shift key down didn't help. Hate hitting a wall like this so early on.

It is that easy to place an image in Muse proportionally:
Only one way:
Press cmd+D (on a Mac), choose the image and place it by click. It will be proportional.
Or: Place the image by clicking and dragging. It will be proportional.
You want to resize it: Simply drad a corner of the image and it will scale proportionally.
The only thing you should remember: Muse scales proportionally without pressing shift and unproportionally by holding down the shift key. This is not standard, but I think much more plausible.
Concerning your PSD-problem: Could you post here a small psd-file so that we can reproduce your problem? I never ever had this issue.

Why are ACR PSD files 10-20 percent larger than the same file resaved in PSD?

Why are ACR > PSD files 10-20 percent larger than the same file resaved in PSD? I posted this many years ago and never found an answer. Now that my drives fill up quicker, I thought I might chase this question a little bit further.
Same .CR2 saved within ACR either with cmd-R or open ACR within PSD, the saved file is 34.5mb. Resave that same file (no edits) within PSD either with or without Max-compatible and the file is now 30.7mb. Another file that is 24.5 becomes 19.5MB.
Why the difference? Is ACR and PSD actually using different compression strategies?
thanks.
Mac 10.8.5 / CC / ACR 8.4.1 - but this has been a consistent behavior over many years and versions, CS6 / CC.

Hi Jeff
If it is RLE it's not as efficient as LZW:
Saved ACR>PSD = 40.1MB (sample image this AM)
opened in PS and resaved as PSD = 30.8MB
resaved as TIF without LZW = 40.1MB (this adds to your thought that the ACR>PSD doesn't us any compression)
resaved as TIF/LZW = 9.6MB

??? I hope that the Adobe engineers are fussing over 10-20% efficiencies.
I'm within arms reach to a rack of 40TB of drives (doesn't include off-site drives), and all 2TB drives are being recycled to 4TB drives, as a result the rack is always growing. Actually the ACR>PSD files don't really make a difference in our long term storage, only for the nightly backups. But anyway, how you save, what you save etc. should all be part of the discussion.
.... so in my case, throw in an excess MB here and there and all of a sudden you are talking TB's. Plus advantages in backup times, drive life, and energy use.
Somebody added compression into the PS>PSD format, but it wasn't included in the ACR>PSD format, was it a decision or an oversight? If it's just a matter of making ACR compatible with PS when saving the same PSD format..... then why not?

Why are my RAW files coming over grainy from Lightroom 5 to Photoshop CC

My images are transferring grainy over the last week. Any ideas why?

What camera raw file is it? Can you provide the EXIF data?

Why is my .psd file not rendering correctly in ae

Some layers of the .psd document are not rendered correctly. However they are imported.
The strange thing is that when I first move from Photoshop to Illustrator, save it as an .ai file it is rendered properly (in Ae).
I am kind of clueless as to what is causing this issue.
Kind regards,
Jelle

Okay if more information is needed, i'll provide. However you may disregard my initial comment about illustrator. It flattens the photoshop layers so I do not have any flexibility in After Effects. In other words, my main question remains: why is my psd file not rendering correctly in ae?
Further details:
-photoshop cc and after effects cc.
-macbook pro retina
If still not clear enough, please tell me what details you are looking for furthermore

Why are my exported files not going to me email? I have used 3 different ones.

Why are my exported files not going to my email (receipts & business card)? I have used 3 different ones...2 yahoo and 1 hotmail. I have checked spam box also.

For the Receipts app I chose to export the info as a PDF file..an email was requested..I entered info and clicked send. For the Business Card app I chose Send, not Print..an email was requested..I entered info and clicked send. I haven't received anything, not even in my spam folder.

Why are my photoshop files distorted and not the tifs?

Hi,
I've been importing tifs and photoshop files into my FCE project, and here's my problem. When I view the .psd file in my canvas viewer the still is squeezed and does not fill the entire frame with white background above and below the still. I then import the same file but resaved as a tif and it appears in the canvas frame in the correct aspect ratio. What is going on? (The image properties are 1920x1080 aspect ratio: square) This happens with all the .psd files that are imported into my FCE project. All imported tifs appear correctly.
Other info: I have started with a baseline photoshop template that is 1920x1080, aspect ratio: square. I saved the images either as a .psd file with one layer or tif with one layer. The reason for the .psd file is that I need to have some areas of transparency in my FCE project (I have overlays). Which leads to another question: If I need transparency within the still in FCE, can I save the file as a tif with "save transparency" box ticked on?
Thanks for any info!

when saving as a png should interlaced be set to none?
Also regarding the tif images...I had been saving them, as a copy and under tiff options:
image compression: none
pixel order: interleaved
layer compression: discard layers and save a copy
I assumed that this tiff file would be one layer. Am I incorrect?
And I did a test save with "save transparency" ticked on and imported the image into FCE. It appears that the transparency is there when I view the still in the canvas window. Can I do it this way? Are there disadvantages/advantages to using png files rather than tiffs?
Thanks!

Why wont my psd files open from Bridge into Photoshop

When I try to double click on a psd file is Bridge, it opens in some other image viewer... not Photoshop. Under File>Open With, there are a number of
possibilities, but none of them are PS. There's Fire Fox, and Microsoft Mail and Painter X but not Photoshop. I can open Raw files but not Psd's or
jepgs... What could possibly be wrong. I cannot find a preferance I've marked incorrectly.

First, I have never made any changes to this area in Preferences. When I saw the suggestion to check file associations in Bridge Pref., I looked through the file asssociations and mostly I found listed 'none beside most types,' but beside Psd, Tiff, and Jpegs it said, "Explorer Settings." Why in the heck would that be there? I clicked on that and noticed I could direct a search through my computer for something else, so I when straight for Adobe and on to Photoshop Cs5, and clicked OK. After that, I could open the psd's in Photoshop and under File>Open With, PScs5 was listed now as the defautl... YEA!... But when I tried the same with jpegs, it didn't work. I put in PHcs5, but they are opening in Camera Raw. Now while I could want that option, I don't want that as a default. I'm totally perplexed as to how this could be happening. I've been using Bridge since it was first introduced into PS, and I've never had a problem like this. I hope someone who is more educated in this area will please shed some light on this for me.
I'm in an advanced Digital Imaging class, and I asked my all knowing teacher and she was confused as well.
Thanks. 7SUS

Why are my ".pdf" files not opening in Creative Cloud? The tumbril shows up as a blank page!

I just switched over from Adobe Acrobat Cloud to Creative Cloud; a tedious task. Most of my files open up fine, but some of them show up as a blank page thumb nail. They do have ".pdf" extension. Any ideas as to why this is happening, and what I can do to correct the issue?
Ty

@masood131 - A few questions:
Are the pdf files without a thumbnail password protected? (Probably not but just checking since we will not be able to provide a preview for such a file).
If you click on the blank thumbnail to view the individual file page do you see a larger preview image, or is that blank too?
If you refresh the browser page does the thumbnail image show?
If you upload the file a second time do you see a thumbnail image?
If there is a problem with a specific file feel free to share a link with me via a private message and I can investigate further.

Why are all jar files not compressed in the JRE installer?

I used 7zip to unpack jre-6u12-windows-i586-p.exe (Oracle JRE Installer). On unpacking, I got a core.zip, a zipper.exe and a few other files.
Again on exploding core.zip I found a few things. core.zip contains all the jar files just like it would be after installation except for 7 jar files.
charsets.jar
deploy.jar
javaws.jar
jsse.jar
localedata.jar
plugin.jar
rt.jar
Instead of these jar files there exists the corresponding packfiles
charsets.pack
deploy.pack
javaws.pack
jsse.pack
localedata.pack
plugin.pack
rt.pack
I think these are files created by pack200.exe & unpack200.exe is run on them after installation to create the corresponding jar files.
So now I have a few questions
Why are only these 7 files run through pack200.exe. I assume its because they are bigger than other files. But it wouldn't take that much effort to pack all jar files & unpack them after installation.
The .pack extension suggests that these are packed but not gzipped. Again why would Oracle not do a gzip also? for eg with rt.jar packing reduces size from 45 MB to 12 MB, while adding gzip also reduces it to 6 MB.

Whatever the truth of all this may be, you won't find it here. This is a user to user forum, not Oracle support or a channel to the developers. All you will get here at best is valid post hoc reasoning: at worst, guesswork. And if you're trying to bring this issue to Oracle's attention, again this isn't the place to do it.

Why are my desktop files not showing on the desktop

Why are the files in my desktop folder not showing on my desktop?

An add-on can put its icon on the bar automatically if it likes, but some add-ons do one of the following:
* Add an item to the Tools menu
* Add an item to the right-click menu (depending on the context)
* Put a button in the button palette so you can add it to a toolbar if you like (''to call up the button palette, use'' View > Toolbars > Customize ''or right-click a blank area after the address box on the Navigation Toolbar and choose Customize from the pop-up menu'')
Also, you might want to double-check that the add-on is enabled.
Tools > Add-ons > Extensions
If you have the orange Firefox button, it's Firefox > Add-ons > Extensions
Does that help? (If you have problems with a particular extension, you could mention which one it is for more specific comments.)

Why are my saved files now xmp?

I'm using elements 10. I've been uploading to picasa, editing in elements, saving a psd file to picasa, then exporting to a folder as a jpeg. As of last night, my saved files are now xmp??? and are useless to me. I don't know what happened??? Please help me. Thank you so much!

PSE does not save your images as .xmp. Your images shoud still be there, in their original format.
These .xmp files are placed there for other reasons, usually when you edit RAW files in PSE/ACR.

Why Are My Cache Files & Other "Hidden" Files/Folders Visible? & How Do I Get Rid Of Them?

I hid mach_kernel and private, but the cache.db, cache.db-shm, cache.db-wal of both the system and user folder are, also, visible. Yesterday, I had to restore from a Time Machine backup because something had suddenly eaten all the space on my startup drive. However, these files were visible prior to the restore. So, why are they there and how do I safely dispose of them or hide them to prevent their return to visibility? Thanks.

Why are unwanted vi files produced when building executable?

I'm using LabVIEW 9, and when I build an executable, it creates 3 unwanted folders containing a number of .vi files that I don't want to have. The 3 unwanted folders that are automatically created are:
NI_HTML, NI_report, and NI_Standard Report
Why are these folders with numerous .vi files created automatically, and where is the option to exclude these when building the .exe? Ok thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I assume this is a executable build description is created in LabVIEW 8.6 (or earlier), look in your LabVIEW 2009 build settings, there should be an option 'Use LabVIEW 8.x build layout' (or something similar), this is probably checked, please uncheck.
