[QUOTE="unrivaled, post: 1008804, member: 145839"] Ummm, I dont know how your going about trying to view your iphoto file in photoshop but let me try to help anyway... I am sure you realize that your Iphoto library is a 'package' which is comprised of several folder (i.e. originals, modified etc.) and metadata that iphoto assigns for internal use (i.e. event, faces, date etc.) and if your in PS CS4 and you click on file>open>(yourname)>pictures>"iphoto library" photoshop is not going to understand that your iphoto library is essentially a folder... That said...
