Photoshop :: Mac Os 10.6.8 And 5 - Can't See Trace Of Camera On Desktop?
Jan 12, 2013
I recently received a new Imac running 10.8.6 and when I attach a digital camera the images go directly to iphoto and yet I don't see any trace of the camera on my desktop or in my finder and therefore can't import them onto my hard drive as customary. if this is an issue with photoshop 5 that will be transparent if I upgrade to photoshop 6? or is there a download that will address this issue is PS
Given that I can use LR on two computers (but not at the same time), how do I move camera profiles that I have created for my personal use, from my desktop to my laptop?
how to use Live Trace in Illustrator but now instead of the Tracing Options window having a button that says "Trace" it's now showing a button that says "Set to Default." I'm sure something isn't selected right or something similar, but I can't figure it out. why "Trace" is no longer an option?
I'm loving CS6 Illustrator, except for one thing. Image Trace. Here, Adobe seem to have taken away the two most usefull settings from Live Trace, and replaced all the presets with ones that are pretty much unusable. I almost always used either 'Comic Art' or 'Lettering' to trace hand-drawn images, but they're both gone. None of the new settings are good enough, even if I make a custom one. The main issue is that the sliders in Image Trace are for completely different things to those in Live Trace, so it's difficult to translate one set of settings into the other.
With Image Trace, I cannot get the same results as with Live Trace, and so far, have found myself having to have Illustrator CS5 open at the same time as CS6, just so I can get workable traces.
I don't know if it's possible, but is there any way to import the presets from Live Trace, or even the full tool, into CS6, to replace the new Image Trace presets?how to make the equivelant of Comic Art in Image Trace's new settings?This is a close up of a file I was trying to trace, showing the major difference in quality between the two CS versions.
Left: CS5 - Comic Art setting. Right: CS6 - This is a custom setting, but is the closest I have come to Comic Art thus far.
As you can see, the definition of Image Trace is far lower in quality than Live Trace, giving me one large connected blob of colour rather than the distictly separate lines produced in Live Trace.
I just started using CS6, jumping from CS3. A major tool I use is Live Trace, and I have custom settings for that. I cannot find a way to make Image Trace behave the way Live Trace did for black and white line drawings. The results I get in CS6 are far inferior to those I got in CS3 in terms of retaining the look of the original raster image. Otherwise, I will have to leave CS3 installed just to do my Live Trace.
Here is a sample of what I mean. You can see the quality degredation in CS6 compared to CS3. (And it's much more obvious when it's full size and full resolution.)
My settings used in Live Trace (CS3) were:
The settings I tried in CS6 that gave the above result were:
Can't open file from Nikon D7100 in Camera RAW Plug-In,i have Photoshop CS5 and plugin is upgraded.Format NEF from Nikon D 7100 is not in this plug-in photoshop.
I am using Photoshop Elements 11, using WIndows 7 Operating System. I have a new camera Canon Rebel T5i, and having problem viewing images in raw format (cr2).Message in PE11, states, "Camera model not supported by installed version of Camera raw."
Canon software views images. Suspect my minimum camera raw plug in version does not support this new camera..I am unable to locate in the software any menu item that allows me to view the camera raw plug in version.
Have no choices in the camera calibration tab inside camera raw plugin. Use CS3 and Raw 4.6. Are choices only available in later version or PS? Also in Raw preferences choice for camera serial number and also setting as defaults. Where to enter serial number etc.
my PSE11 was working fine until i bought a new camera and tried to upload photos from my RAW files. It gave me this message
"Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw.Please visit the Camera Raw documentation for additional information."
so i tried to install the update.... installed it fine, kept getting the same message when i would try to open the photo. after researching online i found the suggestion of uninstalling and reinstalling photoshop elements. i did that once, tried the update again...same results. uninstalled again. tried the update again and still getting the same message. ive checked the adobe website and everywhere i look says the version of the camera raw DOES support my camera (nikon D7100).
After an, automatic, update to camera raw 7.3 in Photoshop Elements 11 all Camera Profiles are gone. All that is left is "Matrix". I use Elements 11, windows Vista on a 64-bit machine, my camera is a Nikon D7000.
I own a GoPro Hero 3 Black camera. I saw the Russell Brown demonstration of Camera RAW to correct lens distortion (
[URL].......
In this instruction, he takes images into Camera RAW and selects a tab called Profile, and it automatically detected the camera from metadata and made corrections.
I was sold, subscribed to Adobe Cloud, downloaded Photoshop and started following his tutorial. When I got to the lens correction part, my Camera RAW has no Profiles tab. Brown does say that you need the latest version, but I have assumed that since I just subscribed and downloaded, that I have that.
Ive got a drawing that I scanned, I changed the Levels a bit so most of the jarble is out of it, and now i want to trace it, and have it look nice. Ive tried using the pen tool, it may just be me, but it doesnt turn out good,
I have a picture of a logo I want to trace, is their like an auto trace that will make it look even? cause when I use that one tool to trace is hard to get it to the right curve.
best way of converting some inked line drawings into vectors. I currently do a lot of fabric designs which consist of very simple line drawings, which I then ink up. What I'd like to do is scan these in and then fill them. I'd also like to be able to resize them, hence the vector conversion.
I've had a play with the Live Trace feature in Illustrator, but have to admit that it baffles me slightly. I currently can't find a setting within Live Trace that will trace the image without increasing the size of the stroke - e.g. all the presets just turn my nice fine sketches into big fat black splodges.
I am also having trouble in taking the converted Vectors and transfering them over to Photoshop - any time I either try to copy the layer directly over or open the saved Illustrator file in Photoshop it comes out all jagged.
someone will be able to describe the steps I need to take to do the following:
1. Convert a line drawing into a Vector without drastically increasing the line weights.
2. Take this new Vector from Illustrator to Photoshop without losing any image quality.
I am trying to figure out how to go about tracing the image below, but I'm not having much luck.
The shape itself is quite simple, and yet I'm not sure where to start. I figure once I get one of the leaf shapes I can rotate it 6 times to make the inner star. As for the outer shells, I don't really have a game plan since the inner star creates the center of the six outer shells.
The image itself looks hand drawn, but the shape could obviously be created to be symmetrical. Which brings me to my next point. Symmetry. Using guides and the rotate tool seems like it should be enough to keep things lined up correctly. Yes?
When you run the 'trace edges' filter, you are left with an outline of your image and all its contrasting points. - this line is about 6 or 7 pixels thick, does anyone know a way of reducing the thickness of these 'lines'?
I drew a line art picture, traced over it in pen, scanned it into Illustrator.
I selected the autotrace tool and clicked it on the lines, it didn't work. I clicked IN the lines, and it traced around the lines...see attachment. Also it left out a bunch of shapes.
I'm rather confused. Should I just not use auto trace for this? If so, what's the better tool?
You know how you see the pictures that are traced via illustrator and such? well, is there a filter for this in photoshop? one to download? ive tried doing the tracing and such, well......doesnt come out so well But anytype of filter etc.
For some reason when using the path option in inventor studio for camera animation the camera rolls for no reason?? I have created two helical curve sketches around my product, the outer curve is the path for the camera and the inner curve is the path for the target. Both curves are the same height and have 1 revolution. When i play the camera it works out fine untill it hits 1/4 of the way through and suddenly flips 180 degrees so now the camera is upside down, once it hits 3/4 of the way it flips back again to the correct rotation. If i dont create an inner curve for the target and place the target directly in the centre of my product with no path to follow the camera spins all over the place when it follows the curve.
Everytime I start CS5 Photoshop I receive an error that states - "The procedure entry point sqlite3_trace could not be located in the dynamic link library sqlite.dll".
I then get a message that Suitcase Fusion 4 is unable to start and auto font activation is turned off.I am using XP Pro SP3. how to reslove this issue.
I managed to get my logo to white and looking nicely but when I try to create a border around it it doesn't look sharp. I am selecting the text, growing by 1 or 2 pixels around and filling a second layer with black and exporting as PNG (to maintain tranparency). You can see what the finished product looks like at [URL]..... in the slider on the main page. It does not look sharp at all. how to do this in a cleaner looking manner?
Let's suppose I find a photo or an image (illustration or cartoon or something) that I would like to use in my project. I want to trace it and therefore, have an outline of the image I want.
How do I do this using an action or plugin or something.
I know I can do this manually using the pen tool. But are there other ways?
1. Are there other ways to doing this manually? 2. Are there any actions or plugins to do this?
If I use an action, the outlines might be too detailed for what I need.
3. How do I get a simpler outline? Would it be possible for me to choose that?
I don't know how to phrase it correctly but the 3d camera tracker inside of After Effects will only apply key frames to the null object. This causes the footage to rotate around itself.
I shoot photos with a Nikon D2X and my wife uses a Nikon D70. If I open a D70 raw file, and then go to camera calibration, the profiles available are for various standard profiles and D2X profiles. The D70 profiles do not show in the drop down list. All of the profiles have been downloaded, from Adobe, and installed.
If I open a D2X raw file, the standard and D2X profiles are shown in the dropdown box.
Have I missed something in the installation? Do the profiles have to be loaded somehow?
I'm an amateur moving up to LR 3 and have been trying to learn this program by reading the LR3 book by Scott Kelby. He shows that the Camera Calibration feature has some settings for specific cameras yet the drop down menu has none listed. I've upgraded to 3.6 and the images were copied from raw to DNG.
