Photoshop :: Batch And Actions

Apr 3, 2008

I've been looking for this one a long time, but I just don't get it to work properly. The problem is this, I need to save a whole lot of pictures into jpeg in my PS file. But the time it takes me for selecting every one of them and pushing ctrl shift s, then inputting the number and save as jpeg. Is driving me horribly insane.

So I looked up some things on google, but that didn't help, thus I landed here. I know you could do this with the automate - batch command but I simply don't get it to work. Using the action command doesn't help either, it saves the picture but always overwrites the former one (since it always saves with the same name)...

Photoshop :: Using Batch Or Actions Closes CS5?

May 9, 2012

Whenever I try to run an action or use batch I get an error message that Photoshop CS 5 will now close. What if anything can I do? I am running XP. There are actions in the plugins/actions folder. The actions tab contains my actions and the original ones.

Photoshop :: Batch Actions Don't Work In CS5?

May 14, 2013

I can record a batch action but when I try to apply it to opened files or folders, the batch window doesn't even appear and all the photoshop menu options are frozen and greyed out. I have to force quit the program to recover. This started happening last week and there was no updates or any other changes made to the computer or software. I have tried to delete the preference files and repair permissions and restart the computer, but nothing works. It happens every single time.

Photoshop :: Batch Actions CS3 (Only Default)

Jan 31, 2013

When I try to do a batch action, the only action set offered is ONE "default set".  Which has vignettes, molten lead, gradients, etc.  I need to batch process a a folder of .pict images to .jpg

It's been a long time since I used the batch feature, but I have done this process in the past (maybe years ago).

What has happened to my action sets or how i might restore them?  I poked around in Time machine, but don't know enough about where to look.

Photoshop :: Using Actions And Batch Files

Mar 18, 2009

I made an action that opens, resizes, saves and closes files. I loaded it into "file>automate>batch" and designated both source and destination folders(which are different). For some reason the batch processed files are not saving to the designated destination folder specified in the batch gui.

How can i correct this?

Photoshop :: CS3 Actions Batch Mode Bug?

Jun 12, 2009

I posted this in the Mac forum but received no responses after a couple of days, so I am trying it here. Photoshop CS3 Actions seem to have a bug such that when used in Automate > Batch mode it will use the name of the first file opened in the batch session for every file processed in that session. Since that name is used in Save step, this means having to deal with the "File Already Exist" dialog for every file in the batch because it is attempting to save at the designated location with the same file name. If the continue option is chosen each time, the final result is one file with the first opened file name, but with the contents of the last processed file. To confirm that this is a problem particular to the opening step, I have disabled all processing steps as well as the saving step by toggling them in the Actions panel. I then ran the action in batch mode on a folder containing 4 files. This resulted in 4 opened files all with the same name but different image content. This was with the "Override 'Open' Action Commands" checked/not checked, and the "Suppress File Open Options Dialogs"  checked/not checked. The  problem described also occurs when using a Droplet. By comparison, Photoshop CS exhibits the expected behavior: when an action is used in batch mode to process an entire folder of files, the name of each file is retained after opening and used after processing in the save or export step. The above described behavior of CS3 is a change acquired along the way to the CS3 version (I do not have the CS2 version to test). But more importantly, can someone please report if the CS4 version behaves as I described for CS3, or if it has been returned to the CS behavior? OS X 10.4.11G4 800 MHz 2 MB L3/processor 1.25 GB SDRAM Is this a known bug?

I tried to run an Automate batch action (to resize my photos) but it will asked me in the "Jpeg Option" folder for each file, which mean I am not able to go away and let Photoshop carry out the action by itself.

Photoshop :: Automate And Batch Actions

Jan 27, 2009

I am converting tiff files to jpeg using the Automate then Batch Actions. I select my source folder and Destination folder. The program converts and send the jpegs to the Destination folder but it is also sending a copy of every jpeg to my DESKTOP. Nothing in my Destination folder shows the desktop as a destination. I set up a destination file on my e drive and it still sends the photos to the desktop.

I am using CS2 Photoshop.

Photoshop :: Migrating Batch Actions Ps7 -> Cs3

Feb 1, 2008

I have a number of actions under the automate/batch menu item that are on a win2k machine with 7.0. I want to migrate them to an xp machine with cs3. I can't boot the machine with 7.0 on it but I do have complete access to the disk (long story of another problem).

I cannot figure out where they store them. I've seen the .atn file but they just seem to be standard default files. So what I want to do is to get them into cs3 without having to redo the dozens of actions by hand. It's sounds easy (and I'm sure it is), but in my searching, I'm coming up with nothing. Ideas?

Photoshop :: CS5 - Batch (actions) Conversion Of PSD To JPEG?

Sep 26, 2013

Up until a month or so ago, using photoshop CS5 - windows,  a batch psd conversion of nummerous files say fred1. psd through fred10.psd gave me fred1 jpeg through fred10.jpeg. I saveconversions to a dump jpeg folder on another drive where there are also, dump psd and dump tiff with tiff not being much used.
 
Using actions, the first conversion of a series will be fred.jpeg but thereafter it will be fred1 copy.jpeg through fred10 copy .jpeg. No big deal for a few files as the word copy can be deleted. However, if a jpeg file say fred.jpeg needs to be updated in say a slide show or web site then the new conversion of the updated file as fred copy.jpeg causes identity problems.
 
how can I return to the situation where fred.psd becomes fred.jpeg and not fred copy.jpeg. This does not seem to happen for individual conversions the manual way. I tried to convert to jpeg 2000 but the same happened. I'm not sure about jpeg 2000 and how it would work if taking to a phot processor for "photographic" prints.

Photoshop :: Batch Processing Actions In Layers

Jul 18, 2013

I've got to submit about 130 images in JPG form to the media department by 1 o'clock today EST.
 
Basically, this is my setup up in PS CS5. I have a simple graphic (a black decorative border) in its own layer. Below this, I have a mask so that the images below it can peek through the decorative border. The sample below only has 1 image, but in my actual document there are about 130 layers under this mask, each with a different image.
 
I have to export every single image as a JPG. Not all the images are the same size so I have to turn off all layers, and leave only the layer being exported visible every time.
 
Is there anyway I can batch this? I don't see how can PS turn on/off layers automatically as it exports.Or how could I have done this differently for future reference?

Photoshop :: Batch Layer Actions (like Images)

Dec 3, 2008

Is there a way I can perform an action to similar images?

For example, lets say I have one big circle, and another circle that's smaller. Is there a way I can resize the two circles so they scale together?

Goes the same with colors. Is there a way I can apply the same color effect to multiple layer images at once? Or do I have to go manually one by one if I want to change something?

Photoshop :: Automation Batch Scripts Actions

Mar 29, 2008

I'm trying to resize and save a bunch of .bmp pictures.
I tried tinkering with some options, but couldn't get it to work any faster than doing each one individually. I think I'm going about it all wrong...

Is there an easy to way to import all the pictures at once, change the Image Size and then save as a JPEG in a new folder?

I'm using Photoshop CS2.

Photoshop :: Running Multiple Batch Actions On Same Folder?

Jul 27, 2012

We run Actions on a group of images using CS4 with the File->Automate->Batch function. We use this to take, for example, 200 images from a set folder, run an action to change them into a different colour and save in a different folder, we need to do this 20 times on the same images running a different script each time to change them into a different colour and save them in the same folder (with different file extensions)
 
Is there a way we can instruct Photoshop to run all of these 20 scripts (one after the other in a queue as it where) without having to "Babysit" it and ask it to run each one off ourselves?

Photoshop :: CS6 Actions / Batch Saving Images To Clipping Mask

Apr 14, 2013

Target a folder with xxx .gif patterns (in the same size)- Setup actions to batch open each image from the folder, copy the pattern image individually over to a .PSD file that have a silhouette of the sleeve.- Apply the individual pattern to the clipping mask- Save it out as .png
 
Issue:So far ive only had the automate > batch process to save out one .png with the pattern correctly applied to the silhouette.
 
I close down everything and initiate automate > batch process then Photoshop will complain about not being able to locate the clipping mask.In my action setup I first open my .psd containing my sleeve shape, then open an actual pattern image and then all other steps ending up with saving the .psd with pattern clipping mask to .png. URL....
 
In this one below, ive closed everything and run the automate > batch process, which gives me the error you can see here: URL....

Photoshop :: Complex Batch Editing

Jun 26, 2013

Photoshop cs6 64  windows 7 64. I'd like to do a highly repetitive action to a single open file. In this case:

file save as currentname_print.psd
then commit action save as currentname.png
then commit another action and save as currentname_small.png
 
at the moment batch seems to be great for running the same action for many files, but if I want to run a repetitive action such as this I can't seem to figure it out. but I cant seem to get it working, and searches only seem to turn up questions about doing the same action to multiple files.

ps: it seems strange that within the action menu I cant create sets that have variables aka current file name+afix, if the actions feature had this I'd be golden.

ps+ also seems that this could be handled by bridge quite efficiently.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Batch Editing Pipe Materials

Sep 27, 2012

I have a drawing with at least 100 pipes in it.  Unfortunately there was an error in the spelling of the pipe material in the network parts list and all of these existing pipes have to be edited.  The only way that I can find to access the material property is to open the property dialog for each pipe and fix it one at a time.

Any other solution that would allow us to batch edit a series of pipe material properties?

Photoshop :: Editing Actions Outside Of Photoshop

Apr 17, 2009

I have 17 actions each containing multiple saves in different sub-folders ( I basically have to save files in 102 different folders) and that has to be repeated in 40 different folders.

Since I do not see myself opening each one in Photoshop to edit the "save to" path 4000+ times, is there a way I could edit that path outside Photoshop? I tried a Hex Editor but I could not figure how to change the path since I could not find it in the script..

Photoshop Elements :: Why Can't Get Any Actions To Play

Dec 4, 2012

All the loaded actions worked yesterday....none will play today.  I can bring up yesterday's work and continue to work on the action run, however, when I closed that out and went to another project, I was unable to run any action loaded.  I deleted the actions and re-entered turning off the computer after each action loaded. Still would not work.  I finally uninstalled 11 and then re-installed it.  Still no luck. Are ACTIONS suppose to be a preset folder?  I don't have a preset Actions folder in my program files...not even after I re-installed.
