Unable to view CD photo’s

Why ? when loading photo’s from CD and editng in CS I am unable to view when saved back on to CD
Any HELP appreciated

Because you can’t save them on to the CD. They don’t work like floppies or your hard drives. You have to use special software to do it. Something like Nero or Roxio Easy Media Creator.

IOW you cannot save back to the CD direct from PS, and you should have gotten an error message when you tried.(cannot save to read only or such)

Open the image from CD, work on it, SAVE to a location on your computer or use save as
Then if you want to overwrite the file on the CD you do need the CD writing program to do it.
(make sure you are using an appendable CD and there is enough space on it and the file name is the same)

It could be something simple like a file type mismatch or a copy protection issue. Are you saving the files using the same extensions? Are the photos part of a ‘show’ that is not designed to be modified by the end user? If this is the case you will need to defeat the copy protection possibly by creating another show or using a different player.

Good luck,
Ron

This question is been a little tricky to nail down. By "player" I assumed the OP was referring to an application, like a slideshow player, not a drive. I also assumed the drive must be a CD/DVD but I could easily be wrong on both counts.

do CD’s play in a DVD player??

I have a DVD-R player connected to my TV. It will show pictures on a CD-R on the TV. I just bought the player so I don’t know if older DVD players will do this but the original poster seems to be saying hers does but it doesn’t play the ones she has edited with CS?

Where did the original CD of photos come from? Did you burn it or did it come from a photo lab or some other place that burned the CD for you?

As a work-around, try saving the edited photos onto a new CD that you burn and see if your DVD player will show them on the TV.

Is you OS XP?

Is the disk a CD-R or a CD-RW? You can add new files to a CD-R (if it has been closed properly). I am not certain what happens if you try to overwrite an existing file.

Do you mean that the photo has not changed, or that you cannot view the (original or changed) photo at all, or that the message is "Access Denied"? I have read all of the posts, but I still don’t know what your problem is.

I got his second post that he makes slideshows using some sort of program that burns a CD that he then plays on the DVD player he has hooked to his TV. If this is the case he will need to recreate the slideshow with whatever software he is using and then burn a new DVD with the slide show.

As was pointed out before you can not write to a CD or DVD unless you are using CD or DVD RW discs. For some reason this person isn’t making things clear. Like what he is using to get the photos on the CD, what DVD player, etc. Until he provides complete and detailed information he won’t get an answer that is going to help him.

Yes, DVD players will play CDs.

Well, assuming that this is the case then he/she/it needs to figure out what the problem is with the images he/she/it is sending to CD. There is something that the player doesn’t like. Read the players instructions on this and the requirements the player has for this. The images could be too big, they don’t like the camera metadata in the file, they have to be saved at a certain compression level, they need certain filename structure, they need to be in a sub-folder, they need to be in a certain color space like sRGB and not Adobe 1998 RGB, color profiles in the images are causing problems. The list goes on.

I find it odd that this person was able to do a disc that would play but now all of sudden can’t. You would think following the same steps they did for the disc that worked would be a simple thing to do.

Is it a Kodak PhotoCD? If that is the case you can forget it. PhotoCD format is dead and Kodak never really released consumer software for making them. They did for awhile, but charged and arm and a leg for it so it died along with the format.

Multisession discs (adding more stuff to a CD-R that has the space) can cause problems. This could be the problem he/she/its player doesn’t like mulitsession discs.

Absolutely.
Most car CD players or TV DVD players do not accept multisession CDs, typically they read the first session only.
Just make a new CD with all the pictures in session 1.

More information, please. Describe what format the original photos are in, and what format you are saving the edited photos in.
