Automation of Actions without ever opening Photoshop

Hello

I was wondering if it is possible to write a script that will
1. open a PhotoShop file
2 perform a set of actions and
3. save the new file
without ever having to manually a user of the computer, open the file?

I know that it is possible to the Scripting of actions but would like to know their automation without launching the program user.

I hope it is clear and there is experience this. Thank you very much!

I think you can write a script to do the treatment you want to save the document in a file and close Photoshop.  Can record you an action that has a single step 1 menu file > Scripts > YourScriptName.   You can then create a drop on your desktop using the file menu > automate > create droplet... and use action that contains the script in one step.   Close Photoshop.

On your desktop you should see gout you created, when you drop a file on this drop Photoshop starts.  The file will be processed and saved by Photoshop and Photoshop will be closed. As if by magic.

So that answers your question?  Answering a question by a new question why not?

  • I don't know what to do about Java - my Mac is horribly slow, and I was advised to remove Java. But now it will not open Photoshop without Java.

    I don't know what to do about Java - my Mac is horribly slow, and I was advised to remove Java, it installs adware. The more I studied, the more information, I've seen say that most of the Web sites and software do not use Java on Mac more. So I deleted everything related with Java. But now it will not open Photoshop without Java. It will be safe if I get it directly from the Oracle site?

    You can download the installer for OS X directly from Oracle. Be sure to uncheck everything installs 'optional' which can appear at the beginning (I think on Windows it wants to install McAfee trial or the toolbar Bing - not really malware, more as desired and useless crud-ware).  I have a course Java JRE install on my MacBook Pro retina like some internal tools we have developed to work are currently java and I use a tool of u. Toronto called CytoScape is Java.  Sites Web will use Java Script, a very different beast and does not require a full Java or JRE install.  But with Java/JRE installed, just be sure of the source of any software that you download and install that is java based (as you should with all the software that you put on your machine).

    In addition, for PhotoShop, it says that you need the legacy Java 6 for OS X?  If so, then don't waste your time on the current version, just install that release 6 legacy.

  • Cannot open photoshop without buying license

    When I open photoshop, I have an option to buy a license.  I paid full freight for photoshop, which is CS6 for Apple.  If I refuse to purchase the license, photoshop quits.  How can I open photoshop without buying a license for the use of my own property?

    If I'm not wring so I understand that you have a uninstalledalled of instOnce CC desktop application which asks you to purchase whenever you try to use CS6.

    If that's the case then you can use the cleanup tool to uninstall the desktop app CC as well as the CS6 use the Adobe Creative Cloud cleaning tool to solve installation problems

    Once uninstalled and then re install the CS6 from the disc or the direct download link. Other downloads

    For Photoshop CS2 activation has been reprocessed, so your original drive and the serial number does not work.

    As an owner of CS2, Adobe has a copy without activation and serial number, to which you are entitled.

    The serial number is to the right of the download link for Windows. You'll need this one, not your old number.

  • Why Adobe Premiere have a "criticism-hiccup" when I open Photoshop?

    Hello

    I use a Windows 7 Toshiba Satellite with 4 GB of RAM and 500 GB HARD drive.

    I downloaded Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Media Encoder, Adobe first Pro CC.

    I used first to make a video for the work. I have a strict time limit and a very slow internet connection, but I wanted a high-quality software that can help me do the editing work.

    I imported my own graphics, animations, etc.. And I realized that I made a small defect with one of the graphs at the end of the video. No big deal right? Open photoshop, make a slight adjustment, reimport.

    I opened Photoshop, while the first remained open in a separate window. Finished my photoshop graphics, saved under a new name. I went back to the first and discovered my audio playing is no longer. After confirming that it was not my speakers, settings or preferences, I decided to look at my task manager to see if it was a problem of RAM. 1 GB used by the first, but I know that I attributed my PC to handle it with ease. Closed all the windows, first open upward and I got this:

    [Please uninstall and reinstall the product... blah blah blah... error 16]

    Tried to open Illustrator, same thing. Media Encoder, same thing, photoshop, same thing. Tried to uninstall it and reinstall (which took forever on my connection), same question. Uninstalled and reinstalled CC, same thing. Tried to follow this guide:https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/configuration-error-cs5.html

    And has concluded that the SLStore file does not yet exist, nor does Adobe PCD...

    So now I'm in a bit of a pickle. I can't use Sony Vegas because it can support more than 32 files simultaneously. And none of my Adobe products work (and I just uploaded :/) 2 days ago so I'm left with the task of making a high-end, without software video to do. We all know that Windows Movie Maker will not cut it.

    Does anyone know why it happened or how I can fix this?
    And I have to redo my whole film editing if I saved the file, saved the copy and placed the copy in my documents?


    Any help will be appreciated.

    Hey John, thanks for your response. I use a laptop, but it isn't dual graphics. I have only a graphics card has. I managed to solve the problem by uninstalling CC and all applications, then I went into my registry and delete everything regarding adobe. Then I downloaded and reinstalled CC and it seems to work from now on, if I will not open two adobe products at the same time.

  • I am currently unable to open photoshop CC/Win7

    I have the monthly service. I use uses a windows system 7. I opened photoshop twice and now it won't open. When I click on it the hourglass flashes and then nothing. Everything else seems to work fine on my computer.  I read through some of the other discussions and trried to use the Manager of tasks without success. I stopped and restarted, only to find Nations United has changed.  I'm trying to open the files of my photos photoshop, nope. As the administrator right click option and nothing. In my view, that it can be caused by not closing the program. Any ideas?

    1 reset your preferences: hold ctrl-shift-alt keys at startup ps cc.  If done correctly, you will see a confirmation dialog box.

    2. in case of failure: uninstall ps cc, restart your computer and reinstall ps cc.

  • Action needed to open save dialog box and STOP it. Help!

    So, here is the background information, in which case it is useful to know why I'm looking for this option - I'm in pulling photos off the coast of an internal database of the company. I can't access these pictures as normal files - I have to go to our Web site, enter an employee number and do a right-click, copy. Therefore, all options related to the editing commands, if they even help otherwise, come out for that first step

    In the meantime, I created an action that opens a new doc and resizes the photo in the pasta. Assigned as the shortcut F5. Then, to save my dexterity (: P) I also reassigned the shortcut 'open save for web and devices' to f6.

    However, it is such a massive project, and coming from a lack of time, what I really want to take the measures which I have created even more cutting of this second stage (open save w / f6).

    I googled and I'm apparently not phrasing the question right, no matter how hard I try.

    HOW in the world, if possible, add a step to my action which simply OPENS the save for web and devices dialog box? I know how to open and save, but not anymore. I need to open and everything STOPS here, so that I can simply hit enter and enter the desired file name.

    Is this possible? I will love you forever if you can tell me what and how to do it! BTW, I'm on Photoshop CS4.

    For your F6 save action files, save it to a file saving (it's okay what or where at the moment)

    Now in the actions palette, click on the box to the right where your backup is action. A dialog box appears saying "this will toggle the State of all the dialogues in this action...". "Click ok beacause we want to cede control of the backup user. Now, when you run your backup action dialogue will appear and you can save the file where and as you want.

    I hope this helps.
