Photoshop :: Migrate My Saved Actions

Mar 30, 2009

I just switched to Vista 64 on the weekend. I spent a day uploading my programs and figuring out how to kill that annoying UAC pop-up. I installed free Comodo firewall as well, so between newly installed Comodo and Vista's UAC, I was forever confirming and RE-confirming what I was doing. The Mac tv ad wasn't that far wrong - except for the fact the chubby PC guy can dismiss all the annoying UAC guys by disabling them.

I just downloaded a trial copy of CS4 to see how it runs with my 8 gbs of RAM.
I was able to located and enter the Adobe Labs presets for my camera in to ACR.
I still have XP and CS3 installed on another hard drive.

What is the easiest way to migrate my saved actions in CS3 to CS4?

Photoshop :: Where Are User Created Actions Saved To?

Apr 22, 2007

Where are the user created actions saved to? It seems that when my computer is restarted that my actions that I've created in CS2 dissapear. In an attempt to fix this (aside from saving my actions) I'd like to see why the IT folks are dumping that folder, or keeping PS from saving the actions I've created.

Photoshop :: CS6 Recording Actions / Graduation Layer / Settings Not Saved

Feb 7, 2013

I want to record an action which creates an graduation layer and uses the "auto" function  layer in the layer settings. But this adjustment will not be saved  in the action (up to CS 5.5 this was no problem).Is this possible in CS6, too?

Photoshop :: Actions Stopped Working After Downloading More Actions

Aug 31, 2004

I downloaded a couple of actions from the web to my actions palette and they worked fine, but then I got greedy and downloaded a few more and that’s when things went south. Now none of the actions work - by not working I mean when I mouse over the Play Selection icon at the bottom of the action palette I get that little circle with a line through it. This happens with the PS default actions as well (I also get the circle on the Stop Playing/Recording and Begin Recording icons).

Somewhere in the following is probably what messed things up.

I downloaded actions to my computer in zip files. Copied them over to the actions folder (or somewhere) and unzipped them. I went back to the actions palette and hit “load actions” and loaded them. On the second set of actions that I downloaded I remember thinking “why am I copying and pasting these files - I bet I should cut and paste them, so I did and that may have been the start of the great crumble of 2004. PhotoShop help says: (under Saving and loading actions) “Actions are automatically saved the the Actions Palette folder in PS7.0 Settings folder. If this file is lost or removed, the actions you created are lost”.

I have searched for the settings folder and couldn’t find it, but the actions still show up on the actions palette - they just don’t run.

I’m a little fuzzy on the details on the above steps. In fact, I probably did something different on each download.

one more thing, I reloaded PhotoShop, but still nothing.

Photoshop :: How To View All Actions In Actions Panel

Nov 24, 2013

My computer crashed and I removed all apps and reinstalled so now none of my actions appear. However I do have a backup file of all of them and want to reinstall but before when I was using cs6 ( Im assuming same thing as CC as it was all on the subscription plan ) I would click actions then the right arrows and it would bring me a big screen of all the actions ( even the ones that were just preloaded in ps ) and it was a big box with all the actions and some options to record etc...Now that box isn't there and it's just a single column drop down menu.

Photoshop :: Actions: Where I'm Putting My Actions

Nov 17, 2006

I like to put my actions somewhere special on my hardrive, not in apps folder.

Now, in past, when I saved actions CS2 would "remember" where this folder was, making real easy to save.

Lately, it keep defaulting to save as in the app folder-- even though I did navigate to my special area on last save as.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Last Saved By And Last Saved Date Drawing Template Properties

Jul 15, 2013

I'm trying to customise my drawing templates to keep them up to date and also include accountability.I seem to be having trouble in including the name of the person who has last saved the model, and the date the model was last saved.

Manually including this information isn't ideal as people will forget, and it makes it harder to trace revisions.I can't see anywhere on the iProperties where the 'Last saved by' feature is available, but I thought maybe the information could be pulled from the username from the application options?

The last saved date should be easy, as there is a modified date in the model's iproperties; however, I cannot pull this information.I have used other cad packages in the past and this was never an issue. With all the customisation of Inventor, I thought this would be relatively straight  forward.

GIMP :: How To Restore Layers Or Previously Saved Version Of Saved XCF Image

May 2, 2012

I have a capstone lab project due tomorrow for my graphic arts class and I made a HUGE mistake!!! I created an image using 20 something layers and did SAVE AS as a .xcf image (with all layers open). Part of the project was to save in different formats: .xcf (with open layers), a .png, and a .jpeg (optimized). So, I did the first save and then flattened the image to SAVE AS a .png with a different file name.

Long story short, I was tired and had way too many images open at once. When I was closing all of the images I accidentally saved the changes (flatten image) to my original .xcf (with open layers)!!!! Now, my .xcf that is supposed to have open layers only has one layer...the finished project!! I tried going to the file properties to restore a previous version, but it says that no previous versions were found! I also downloaded a norton "unerase" utility, but maybe I am not scanning properly to locate the file!?!

Lightroom :: 4.3 - How To Make Metadata Saved To XMP File Stay Saved

Mar 12, 2013

When a raw file badge shows that the file has been changed, I use Metadata Save to File & for the large majority of my images, the badge goes away and Metadata Status Changed does not show the file.  For some of my files, however, the Save to File command doesn't work properly.  If I am only displaying files with changes, the file briefly disappears, then returns.  Even if I go to Windows Explorer and delete the xmp file, then again Save metadata to file, it pops up again with the badge saying it needs to be saved.  I'm using Lightroom 4.3 64 bit on Windows 7.

Photoshop :: Actions In CS6

Feb 19, 2013

I am currently trying to find a faster way to create the images I use for our website at work. We sell phone cases with lots of different printed designs on but all of the actual surrounds of the cases are the same, either in Black or White.

I have created a Black and a White template and kept the front, back and side shots of the phone case on separate layers so they can later be manipulated as needed. I have all of the 'design inserts' saved as separate files which then need to be pasted into the templates (in between certain layers) and saved (one for each case colour).

I am wondering if there is an action or a way in Photoshop that I can set it to import the design into the template, then save the design, then import the next design and save, and so on and so forth? As we have well over a hundred designs and creating the images manually can take a very long time.

I have attached images of a template, a design and how I need it to look after.

Photoshop :: Actions In PS CS3

Aug 19, 2009

I have created an action to prepare images for web posting.  The action resizes images, sharpens them, adds a frame writes into the frame my contact details and lastly adds the name of the subject (location, or person's name) and then outputs the image to the correct folder.  Typically I run the batch on a folder of say 30-40 images at a time.... sometimes upto 100.  All run from either bridge or as a droplet via Lightroom. The action works great... except that each batch I run it on the "subject name" I need to insert is different.  Is there any way at all to get the action to prompt me for just that bit of information.  I've tried checking/ticking the dialog on/off option for the text field in the actions pallet and that works, but... when I'm applying the action to a batch of images it asks for the text EVERY time and doesn't remember what I typed in last time. At the moment, the solution I have is to open one image that I want to run the batch on. Make a copy of the action and enable a stop before the text prompt... run the script to that point.  Then run/edit the text line, remove/disable the stop.  If necessary create a new droplet.  I can then go over to bridge or Lightroom and process the images using the new action. Ideally the what I would like to hapen when I'm running an action like this is when processing the FIRST image in the batch for PS to ask me what text I want and then use that same text on all the other 30 or 40 images.

Photoshop :: Actions

Jun 22, 2007

i have about 100 photo cds with 80 to 100 images on each...i have copied each one to a dedicated external drive for storage and access...i would like to convert each cd (folder) to 16 base at 300dpi

to access an image now for photoshop, i have to process each image through graphic converter...

Photoshop :: Actions

Jun 7, 2006

trying to create an action which moves a particular item to a certain place every time, and then resizes. This place must be absolute, as I need it to be the same on a variety of images. The problem is whenever I try to use the move command, it uses a relative position. Is there anyway I can tell an object to move to the same place every time?

Photoshop :: Actions

Mar 17, 2004

I use Photoshop 7 on a laptop with 900 mghz and 128 ram. Using actions along with batch processing my goal is to open a folder, and, in no particular order, apply the crop tool, levels, curves, and save for web.

Problem is I can't individually apply curves, crop, levels or save for web without batch processing coming to a stop. All files don't require generic applications. When contructing action I've inserted a stop with and without the "allow continue" option and still the batch processing stopped.

Is this manipulation of the action command not combatible with the batch processing command? Do I need to break action into several actions?

Photoshop :: PS CS Actions

Jun 23, 2005

I have just discovered 'actions' in CS and started to use them to place a frame around some pics BUT one of the actions 'Recessed Frame' has me beaten & confused.
When I play the action I recieve the following messages:-

The command duplicate is not currently available. (and the others saying that others are not currently available) 'set, delete, set (again)' then the message 'warning no pixels were selected' and again currently not available, 'delete, channel frame edge' and at the end of all this I have a totally black picture area.

Photoshop :: Actions

May 16, 2008

I want to do a simple thing - create a frame around my picture. The Help directions in the product are so ridiculous in that you cannot follow them. They tell you to look for Photo Frame which does NOT exist, then etc., etc. I've tried exploring Actions, reading all the help - the whole thing makes no sense.

Photoshop :: Actions

Mar 12, 2005

Is it possible for someone to give me the short run down on how to do the following with an action? It doesn't have to be batch-applied to a bunch of files. I'd just manually apply it to the files I wanted.

1. Converts from INDEXED to RGB Mode

2. Creates a new HUE/SATURATION adjustment layer with a setting that would turn the file from say, red to blue

3. Save the file in the same format the original was (preserving transparency) and naming the file in the following manner:

original file : top_left_red.gif

new file name : top_left_blue.gif

I could then either modify this action or create a new one that could do the same but apply an orange/green/purple/teal HUE/SAT adjustment and naming convention instead. This would save me a great deal of work and time.

Is there an in-depth Tutorial online that will help me create actions of my own...I can find very basic tuts only.

Due to the basic tuts I can now make an action, but I want to extend this knowledge further such as entering the instruction test boxes, and for another example, creating a new document that has the dimensions from the windows clipboard.

Photoshop :: Moving Actions From CS5 To CS6

May 17, 2012

I just read that the easiest way was to save the Actions in CS5 in a specific folder then go to CS6 and load the individual Actions. Sounds easy, however I can't get past the first step. Photoshop won't let me save the Actions in SC5. What can I do?

Photoshop :: CS6 Actions Recording Bug?

Oct 22, 2012

I upgraded to CS6 two weeks ago and so far I haven't recorded a single action that has not been EFFED UP in some way! I'll record the action on a test file, but when I run it on another file or a batch of files it will have at least one bizarre mistake...like the saturation will be set to 100%...or a channel in Selective Color might be set to -78%...or the opacity of a layer will be 100% instead of whatever lesser value I set it to when I recorded the action! I check the test file and it is always fine.
