Help with CS2

I am having a issue with Photoshop CS2 rotating images when it opens them. I don't want it to. I have various actions setup that I brought from PS7 and this is throwing them off. Not sure if it is a setting or what that can turn this off. Thanks

    I probably shouldn't reply to this, because I don't have the solution for you, but I have the same problem too! I tried to check to see if it was some sort of tag from the camera on the picture, but I can't really figure it out, in compy or in CS2.

    Photoshop is looking at the Orientation field of the EXIF data. I would think that there has to be a way to get Photoshop (and bridge) to ignore the orientation, but I haven't found anything ne_nau.gif

    I'll keep looking.

    What are your actions doing? Would it be possible to make a new copy of all your actions and just remove any rotation steps?

    Well the actions are setup so that all the pics are vertical, not some vertical and some horizontal.

    I don't know if this is on your camera's menu, but on my 20d it has an auto rotate that you can turn on or off-I assume that when it's on it tells the camera and ps to rotate the pic, say, -90 degrees-

    I thought that just affected the display in the camera's LCD, not the EXIF data. ne_nau.gif

    gee, nobody else care to try it out?-

    turned off the auto rotate on the 20d-

    shot this pic vertically-

    this pic stayed this way on the camera-

    and this is the way it stayed in ps cs2-

    orientation showed 'normal' vs '-90'-

    Cool. I considered briefly doing a test but figured someone more serious would correct my idle speculations. Cheers, George. thumb.gif BTW is that a Gibson SG custom hanging there? I used to have a standard a long time ago and really loved it. Ooops, wrong thread. :D

    Ok, interesting info, but I still want to be able to have cs2 not rotate the orientation upon opening. I can't seem to find any info on how to turn this feature off.

    I think bham is interested in finding a fix for pics he's already shot.

    my bad-

    I told you I was brain dead-

    I guess you could rotate back the pics that ps rotated and save and then the orientation would show normal and also maybe do it in batch--but I don't know if that would help-

    good luck, bham-

    I'm sure if it can be done someone on here would know how to do it-

    I hope I can find a way. Otherwise it will add some more work to an already somewhat long process. Thanks everybody.

    Right now I am still using PS7 until I can figure this out.

    rotate.
    I persoanly like the program and how it rotates it, just bugs me when I save it and they go back to side ways vs. the currect way... I persoanly like bridge or ps2 to correct the view, to bad there is not a option for who wants it turned and who doesn't and when it saves it saves it as seen.
