Why won't image change in aperture once I've export to edit in photoshop?

On going learning issue!
I finally managed to edit in photoshop via aperture. I have to change the photo from 16 bit to 8 bit so I can edit it. I like to take the photo into Photoshop (elements 4) to fix some spots and such.
It's supped to change in aperture when you are done editing in photoshop..right?
What I see is a new version of the photo, but the changes have not been made.
What am I doing wrong? I can see this becoming a problem when I try to export to print, burn a CD or even to web.
How I fix it?
Thanks!

3) Execute a File > Save command in Elements. (NOT a
Save As...).
4) Close the file in Elements.
The edited version will show up in Aperture
automatically with all of your changes applied.
<...>
One note on that excellent summary - you do not have to close the file after saving, you can continue to work on the image and save multiple times. Each time you save Aperture will recognize the changes and update the Aperture thumbnail.
As to the original problem, it sounds like possibly you were saving the image somewhere else? Converting to 8-bit should be fine, as is resizing the image - Aperture should adjust for any changes made to the image.
Another possibility is that Elements does not have something called "compatibility mode" turned on for PSD saves - if you've turned that off to conserve space turn it on again, because that compatibility mode saves a flattened image which is what Aperture uses to recognize image changes.

  • Why does the image not open in Elements when I opt for Edit in Photoshop Elements 11 from the Photos tab in Aperture?

    With an image in Aperture, when I got Photos one of the options offered is "Edit in Elements Photoshop 11", but although selecting this opens Elements, there is no image and it is necessary to open the image in the normal way from within Elements.  Other plugins, e.g. from Topaz work superbly from within Aperture.  I am puzzled to know the reason, and in particular if there is any setting in either Aperture of Elements that need to be attended to.  I would be very grateful for any suggestions.

    Hi Frank, and many thanks.   I can now get the picture into Elements, and work on it.  However, when I have finished, I save it (giving it another name that I can recognise if the amendments are slight) it puts the file back into the same folder, but I have then to import it into the Aperture library in order to see it back in Aperture.  Not a big problem, but an interesting one.
    Again, many thanks

  • When moving to Aperture 3, why upgrade the imaging system all at once?

    I have been reading about the library migration issues when upgrading to Aperture 3 and my question is this: what is the advantage, if any, of attempting to migrate all the images instead of just upgrading the database and tackling the images as needed? For example, with a 60 gig library of previously edited images, why would I bother migrating all the images when I could simply do that one image at a time, as needed, to take advantage of the new editing tools? Wouldn't this approach make the upgrade process infinitely smoother and faster?
    Apple says much the same thing is their support article here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3945
    So, for those of you forcing the images update process along with the database upgrade, my question is why take the risk? Yes I know it is supposed to work, and it probably does for most people, but why bother taking that risk for images you have already edited when you can easily do it an image at a time? Am I missing something?

    IDImager allows for Keywords to be written in hierarchical format. This means each individual keyword includes the parent keywords like this: "Others|Import|2009|2009-02-22". The only debate in my mind is about what will be more time consuming, writing and debugging a script to have exiftool extract the keywords and apply them hierarchical, or doing this task manually.
    From playing with the Aperture trial I deducted that making changes to keywords in the keyword HUD applies these changes to all images. Changing the "fred" keyword to "Freddy" will update all images that have the original "fred" keyword applied.
    We'll see. I am certainly not new to programming but have not used AppleScript before. Am still searching for a comprehensive guide and scripting examples that would help in pulling this off. But as I get closer to having the pre-processing outside of Aperture done for all of my images and very little accomplished in terms of the script I am leaning towards manually fixing my keywords.

  • Why won't images from Aperture sync to iPhone or iPad?

    Hi
    Whenever I try to sync impages in my Aperture library to my iPhone or iPad I get en error message:
    iPhone - The iPhone "iPhone" cannot be syned. An unknow error occurred (-50)
    iPad - The iPad "iPad" cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found
    I have repaired my library and previews have all been produced and I can access them for other app like iWeb so I'm a bit baffled by this one.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance

    Forgot to mention - iPhoto library synce just fine

  • Why won't images load on firefox?

    I have a macbook from 2009. Lately images do not load on Firefox or Safari. Sometimes streaming videos do not work either. It's been fine before so I don't understand why all of a sudden, it's not working. Can anyone give me suggestions?

    When I started in "Safe Mode" Bing images appear.
    So next I:
    Turned off hardware acceleration. No change.
    Was already running default theme.
    Disabled all Plugins - No change
    Disabled all Extensions - CHANGE!!
    Now imagines are showing in Bing.
    You are brilliant!! It turned out to be '''HTTPS-Everywhere 3.2.3''' not allowing Bing to show images. Wow! Thank you so much.
    I have no idea if you can help with this, but is it possible for you to tell me if I need all these Plugins? I don't even know what some of them are or how they got there:

    At the moment they are all disabled. Will I get notification that such and such Plugin is needed to view this?

  • Why does my image change when imported into Mac Captivate?

    The image is a png and originally part of a Captivate 6 template created in Windows. When I import the image into Mac OS X Captivate 6 the quality literally changes before my eyes.
    Can anyone tell me why this is happening? and how I can correct it?
    Thank you!

    If that's the only place you used that unique font, yes.  Convert the textbox to an image file by applying a drop shadow to the font and setting the opacity of the drop shadow to 5%.

  • Why won't name change on some photos take?

    I am trying to change the names on photos in a photo album.  Sometimes the name change takes, but other times, after changing the name, after a few seconds, the name changes back to the previous one.  Why is this happening only on some photos and not others and how can I stop it?

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • Why won't Safari change its key bindings?

    I've been using XCode a lot lately, and then by habit I hit Command-T. To my suprise, a tab opened instead of the usual format box. Hurrah! Now, I've gone a little tab-happy. I found a new shortcut for switching tabs: Command Left/Right Arrow. Then, I tried to make Safari conform to the same shortcut. So I went into the System Prefs app, the Keyboard panel, and the Keyboard Shortcuts section. I set "Select Next Tab" to Command Right Arrow.
         When I looked in Safari, the shortcut didn't work. After ten minutes of trying every combination of restarting safari and closing system prefs, I saw that, in Safari's Window menu, The short cut HAD changed. The "Select Next Tab" item did display Command Right Arrow as the shortcut. It just didn't work.
         I suspect the Forward menu item is hogging the command. But I can't change it, because it isn't a menu item. I've tried opening Safari's app package, but its menu is in the nib format, NOT xib format. Therefore, I can't change it through developer tools.
    I'm running a Macbook Pro early 2011 with 10.7.2 (Lion). This happens to Safari 5.1.2 in both windowed and fullscreen modes.
    I am NOT looking for an alternate shortcut. I want THIS shortcut. How can I do this through any means neccesary, including hacking/modding safari.app?

  • Why won't CSS changes save -  Are Reflected Locally, but not there when uploaded.

    I have recently re-installed Dreamweaver CC 2014.1.1. I am editing an existing site http://www.travelight.tv/test.html. CSS changes won't save (i.e ".righthalf" and <strong> and H3.)  I finally replaced the class with a table for the sake of time. Still can't save <strong> and H3 changes. CSS Designer Panel correctly shows the H3 font and the hex color (ee5e33) - but the color palate shows black. The uploaded document reflects gray. The changes are reflected properly locally, but not when uploaded to server. The time/date stamp doesn't update, despite saving several times. What am I missing?

    Sorry about that, I managed to get the test URL wrong. http://www.travelight.tv/test/index.html. I had to remove the righthalf class from the document, but the <strong> and <h3> tags are still having issues.As for the location, I am opening the one that is linked to the document from the bar at the top of the document - it is the only one named travelight.css. When I logged in this morning, I noticed that it is showing the icon as a Wordpad document even though the File Type shows it as a Cascading Style Sheet - I have tried saving it as an html file and have re-created it, but it remains a Wordpad document. Below is the a screen shot of the folder.

  • HT1349 Why won't "show duplicates" show up in either my File or Edit menus?  And, why does my entire library keep getting duplicated?

    I have a new computer and I'm trying to reload my library and my playlists.  I also have a new iPhone 5 and I'm trying to load that too.  I'm getting duplicates of everything in my library.  When I try to find the "show duplicates" tab in my File menu and/or my Edit menu it isn't there.  Any ideas?  Thanks!

    Yes, it has always worked in the past.  The past projects audio clips do not change names.  I obviously did something different in this current project, but unfortunately I have no idea what.

  • Aperture 2.1 does not show edits from Photoshop Elements 6 on a PPC

    I am trying the Aperture 2.1 trial - and, so far I like it. However, when I use it with Photoshop Elements 6 as an external editor in Aperture on my iMac G5 PPC it seems to create another copy (as it should) but when I try to save the edited version in Aperture I see two versions of the original - both the same! I do not see the edited version at all. The copy has a round circle in bottom right corner. I have tried for hours with many edits and cannot find them in Aperture.
    However, when I do exactly the same edits - on the same photos - using my Intel Macbook Pro it works as it should! I see the original and alongside is the edited version!
    Why does this not work the same with my Power PC?
    I have tried trashing the .plist preference of Aperture on the PPC but still does not work.
    Cab anyone please help? I have a lot of 35mm slides to scan - using the Macbook Pro - and I want to edit using the iMac as the screen is much bigger!
    thanks

    Brilliant! Problem solved - thank you Barbara! Thanks also Victor who identified the 'save' as the problem!
    Just for your info I then realised why this had happened. I first used the trial with iPhoto - on the PPC - and I chose in the Preferences 'Save as' rather than Save. I forgot the non destructive nature of the edits and that 'saving over' is not the same as replace! As soon as I changed the preference on the PPC back to the default of save over - it worked as on the Intel Mac. My edit now appears alongside the original (and it has a small circle at bottom right corner)
    This is great - I have now ordered Aperture and look forward to testing how to get the best out of using it with PS Elements 6 (which is also very good)
    Thank you all for these discussions. It is fantastic to be able to get such speedy advice - and problems solved - by so many helpful experts!
    I am grateful - best wishes
