I've just ordered a new PC and want to keep it lean, solely for photo and video editing. To that end, I don't want to install AV and intend not to use it for internet access.
Is there any way for me to manually update PS by downloading updates to my laptop and then transferring them to my new PC. I know I can do that with ACR, but cannot find any information on doing it with other updates.
I have a job where some one has manually written valves into the titleblock fileds that should be coming from sheetset manager is there a way to reinsert the titleblock and have the fields come back.
i just noticed that there is no manual update file for ACR 7.2. most of our company computers are offline.
how should we update them without a manual update file?

adobes says the final ACR 7.2 update is available through the CS6 update.well that is of no use when you have offline computers. This update will be released as manual update file too?! any infos?
When transfering images from Lightroom to Photoshop HDR for instance. message says update Camera Raw. Update attempts all come back to 'update server is not in service' --
Instead of Photoshop, et al using my Win7 x64 ICC monitor profile, I would like to set it manually, as I'm able to do in other applications. Is this possible?
The reason why is that I have a Dell U3014 and using the software that comes with it, I want to use its sRGB mode (and an associated sRGB profile from my Spyder 4 set as my Windows default) for all of my regular apps, and AdobeRGB mode (and profile) for my CS and other color-aware apps. My other apps DxO, PhotoMechanic, Canon SLR apps, etc. let me choose the profile.
While editing two very similar photos and using the CS6 auto-tone command, one of the photos photoshop was able to truly fix up while the other barely changed. Here is the example:
Photo A was very blue and dark; the auto-tone command magically fixed it up to have nice color variation in the rock and made it brighter. Here is the before/after:
On the other hand, photo B didn't work out the same way; the auto-tone command barely did anything, even though I thought both photos looked to have very similar problems (blue, dark, etc).Here are the links to the full original photo A and photo B in case they are useful...
how can I achieve on photo B the same effect that auto-tone did for photo A! Is there any way to find out what adjustments auto-tone made?
I have just purchased Photoshop CS6 and ran the updater from within Photoshop. I know some of the updates worked but not all. So I ran it again 3 or 4 attempts now have failed with this message:-
It has failed to install - Extension Manager 6.0.6 Update with the error message -Installation failed. Error Code: U44M1P7
I have found a solution on the forum- Download and install the updates manually. Go to [URL]...updates and download the update that you are trying to install.There is no update available there which refers to Extension Manager 6.0.6 Update
I opened the Adobe Application Manager and run it for updates, it reports I'm good - no updates! But when I then try for an update from within Photoshop I still get the same message telling me I need to instal ExtensionManager 6.0.6 UpdateI have tried to find the error log from within my system - but failed misserably (I am on Windows 7-64)
where do I go from here? Do I need Extension Manager? What does it do? Is it vital I install this update?
In PS CS2 I used to manually align 3 images in Photomerge to make a triptych (not a panorama). I can't figure out how to do this in CS6. Do I need to work with a tool other than Photomerge?
I have a Photoshop action that, amongst other things, performs various fill-type operations on parts of an image. I want to run the action on a number different images, but I need to select different parts depending on the image.
Is there a way that I can manually position the cursor (i.e pick the correct area to process) while running the action? Or do I have to break the action up into shorter actions and do the fills manually in between?
Ive tried the dng download but it did nothing in putting the new raw 8.3 into my Photoshop elements 11. How do I do it manually? Ive just bought a Canon 70D and now cant read the raw files.
Photoshop Elements wants to use Google Maps to identify 'Places', and allocating place names in the Organiser. Some of the names are not what I want, and in an English Edition are even coming out in arabic script. How do I rename the place names or, even better enter them manually?
So I've got a couple thousand PSD documents that need to be manually cropped down to best encompass the subject. Since I am unable to find a script that simply opens up the next document in the folder and I would have to manually find the next file each time (remember that files are unselected in Finder after having been saved), which would prove to be quite tedious.
I am using CS4 with Windows XP and lately when I try and use my actions I have to manually click on each step of the action to complete it. Some steps fail to work and the action is useless.
I was working with Elements 7 and have switched to the new Elements 11.
I used to be able to minimize my images and have them on my workspace side-by-side. I liked the convenience of dragging and dropping as well as seeing things right beside each other.
I've had this issue with every recent version of PSE.I'm using 64 bit Windows 7.When I close the organizer, the "Elements 12 Organizer" process is left running.
This prevents PSE 12 restarting, without me manually killing the process from the task manager. I have created a shortcut to the organizer, as I know using the launcher has had issues in the past. I had a forum entry from December 2012 for the same problem with PSE11 which went away when I stopped auto-analyzer in the preferences. This seems to make no difference with PSE 12, which runs "ElementsAutoAnalyzer" anyway!
If I kill Auto-analyzer process it also makes no difference to PSE 12 Organizer restart.
I get the following error message when I attempt to update X6. Not sure what to do about it.
CRC error: The file C:ProgramDataCoralDRAW Graphics Suite X6.1CGS16w_cproc_p_11.1.048_redist_intel64.exe doesnt match the file in the setup's .cab File. The medium from which you are running the setup may be currupted; contact your software vender.
I made a change to my materials library. I changed the color (from dark grey to light grey) of one material. I then saved this back to my library.
Now, when I start a new part, I get a warning that the material does not match the library. So, rather than using the material in the part, I opened the template and updated the material to match the library. (Manage >Update Styles).
This is where the problems come into play. In the update styles dialog, if I compare materials against my custom materials and then compare it to my Favorites, it just a continuious circle. It is like the favorites are stored inside the part and do not get updated to match the custom materials library. (I thought the whole idea behind using a library was to get the information out of the parts).
Here is a short video showing what it does. [URL] .....
The only way I can get the favorites to match is to delete the favorite material, update the style and the add the favorite back in. That is a bunch of work. The problem I got with this is that there are thousands of parts that have been created that has this favorite in it. The only way to update these is to open each part (if I knew which one), delete the favorite, update the materials and then add the favorite back in.
Sometimes I can manually set the x & y coordinates, and sometimes I can't: I change the number from say 54.0001 to 54, and Illustrator changes it back to 54.0001. Or, more commonly, it will not allow me to specify a float when the coordinate is an integer ( 54 -> 54.1 ).
The layours/shapes are not locked and I disabled all snapping options (snap to grid, snap to point, snap to guide).Why does it decide to work sometimes and not others?
Also, why, even when I have all the snaps enabled, does Illustrator insist on setting coordinates to a float that is JUST off of what it should snap to? Say I have a Guide and the left side of Shape A at x-coord 60; Illustrator absolutely refuses to align the right side of Shape B to x-coord 60 when dragging. Instead it decides 59.9897 is better. Both shapes are simple, are solid/filled, and have no stroke or effect/filter.
Even if I select Shape A and Shape B (Shape B is a copy of Shape A) and use the align palette (specifying Shape A is the key object), it will still set the x-coord of Shape B to 59.9897 instead of 60. WHY?
I noticed Illustrator setting erroneous/illogical xy coords since CS3 (it might have existed earlier), but I've always been able to force the x-coord manually to be the position I want; until now.
In contrast to version PSPPX3, the new PSPX4 has implemented a tool that will remove all necessary keys and folders from your system. It works on all supported systems without problems.
follow the description below if you want to remove PSPX4 from your system.
How to remove PSPX4
Go to Start - Control Panel - Add and remove (XP) / Programs and Features (Vista, Windows 7) and remove PSPX4.
Restart the system if you want to reinstall it.
Additional note: No further action is required. Using other uninstall tools is neither good nor necessary.
My problem is My PSP X2 stopped working so I tried a repair all to no avail ..I then tried removing it via windows add and remove which it said it had done ..I then tried reinstalling it But a message came on the screen saying I already had PSP X2 installed on my computer still? I then used Revo unistaller program which found I still had it on my computer and which removed it (according to Revo) and again I tried to do a fresh install only to yet again get the message I had PSP X2 installed ..So somewhere in my computer PSP resides
How to draw along a path I created. But everything that I've found seems to be telling me to use the "Stroke Path" tool. But I don't want the program to actually draw the line for me. It doesn't provide the same style as if it was done by hand.
Is there any way to 'lock' my cursor along a path I created so that I can draw along it manually?
