actinic not seeing images worked on xp moved to vista

[Kev Challis]

Hi all,

Just moved over our site to a laptop running vista. Was previously on desktop running XP.

I have been working on our site today with my manager sorting new images for some new products.

The images have been taken with a digital camera, worked upon in Paint Shop Pro 8 on the XP machine that actinic use to be on. I transfered them over using a usb drive, moved them onto my laptop running Vista.

Went to select them in Actinic, but Actinic doesn't see them

Went into c: drive and found them in the relevant folder, but only by clicking on 'Capability Files'.

Paintshop Pro 8 on my laptop reads the images just fine.

Anyone experienced this or know how to get actinic to read them?

Thanks again for any advice.

Kev

you need to make sure your site is under the documents part of your machine, you can not edit any files under the program files directory structure when you run vista with uac on

vista will ignore any changes made unless you turn of a number of security settings.

thanks for the prompt reply, much appreciated!

I'll do that in a sec and get the folders moved.

If any of you are ever in Market Bosworth, Warwickshire....Make sure you pop in to our Bistro, you can have a drink on us!
