Getting photos from Nokia mobile phones
Now in Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0, you can get photos from camera-enabled Nokia Suite 6.5 compatible
mobile phones with the Adobe Photo Downloader. For information on getting photos, see “Getting photos” on
page 1.
Two important notes:
•
If your mobile phone stores photos on a removable flash or memory card, you can use a card reader to transfer
the photos to your catalog.
•
If you’re having trouble getting photos directly into Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0, you can save the photos
in a folder on your computer and then bring them into Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 as described in
“Getting photos from your computer” on page 3.
You can also export photos to your Nokia phone by choosing Send to Mobile Phone from the Share button in the
shortcuts bar.
Getting photos from CDs and DVDs
When you get photos from CDs and DVDs, you can choose whether or not to bring the photos onto the hard disk
drive of your computer, or leave them on the CD or DVD, known as keeping them
offline
. A low-resolution copy, or
proxy file
, of a master photo kept offline is shown in your catalog so you can continue to view the photo in Photoshop
Album Starter Edition 3.0. When you perform an operation that requires the original photo, you will be asked to
insert the disc on which the offline photo is stored. You can then decide to use the proxy file, bring in the master
photo, or cancel the procedure.
When you choose to keep a master photo offline, Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 asks you to give the CD or
DVD a
reference name
. The reference name you choose should be meaningful to you. It’s smart to write the reference
name you’ve chosen on the CD or DVD or on the disc’s jewel case. When Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0
requests the master disk, it will provide the reference name so you can insert the correct CD or DVD.
To get photos from a CD-ROM or DVD:
1
Do one of the following:
•
Click the Get Photos button
in the shortcuts bar, and then choose From Files and Folders from the pop-up
menu.
•
Choose File > Get Photos > From Files and Folders.
2
Navigate to your CD-ROM or DVD drive.
3
Select the photos you want to import from the CD-ROM or DVD.
4
Select Keep Original Offline to add just a copy of the photo to your Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 catalog.
If this option is selected, a low-resolution copy (or proxy file) will be downloaded on your computer, and Photoshop
Album Starter Edition 3.0 will reference it from that location. To download the master photo, leave this option
deselected.
5
If you’re keeping a master photo offline, type in a Reference name for the CD or DVD that will make it easy for
you to identify the disc in case Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 requests it at a later time. It’s also a good idea
to write the reference name on the disc or its case.
6
Click Get Photos. Your photos are brought in to Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0.
Note:
An offline photo has the CD icon
in its thumbnail. Its file location references the drive from which the CD was
inserted.
