CS is rotating some of my Horz. images and making them vertical. 3

[yavarsity]

I am trying to batch about 200 images, making an image 3 different sizes. But even before I get a chance to batch them I open them up in CS to brows them so I can get rid of the bad shots. After I get rid of the bad shot I batch them. However some of my Horizontal shot are turned into vertical (rotated 90°). The strange thing is they are not all doing this. I checked other forums and this was also a problem for others but their really wasn't any solution mentioned. Does any body know what is going on here and how I can fix this? I'm using CS1 with Tiger.
Thanks

I guess these are pics from a digital camera? If so, they can contain instructions for Photoshop so that they can open up in the correct orientation. Maybe you can turn this functionality off on the camera? I would just put up with this for this job

Sorry if i have misunderstood the problem

In addition to tweaking your camera settings, there is a setting in Photoshop to ignore camera orientation.

You are correct in assuming from a digital camera. However< I can not just put up with this. I post the images to a website and it doesn't appear to be very professional to make the viewers turn there head to view my images. Also, on the mid size I also put a watermark on the images... so I'm putting a horiz. Watermark on a horiz. Image that is turned vertical.
So ... Am i hearing that you think it might be a camera problem? And if I have the photographer change some setting this will not happen?

I looked for a photoshop setting... I could not locate one. Could you give me a hint where it might be?
Thanks for your post

My guess is that it is in the general Photoshop preferences under the 'Photoshop' or 'edit' menus. I am not at my CS computer now so I can only guess. I am sure it is in there somewhere.

I checked at both places and can't find it at either. Thanks anyway. If you have any more info for me on this I would greatly appreciate it.
thanks

I think this might do the trick...
If I open File Browser and view my images and then rotate them if needed. then under Edit in File Browser choose Apply Rotation. I guess that should work. My photos are not with me so I will have to try this out tonight.

Just go through the pictures once - and re-save the ones with incorrect orientation. This will remove the problem... then do the batch stuff

It wont take you that long to open 200 pics - surely!?

Yes - in the file browser highlight all the files you wish to rotate.
Then go to the Edit heading in the file browser and you can apply the rotation simultaneously to all selected.
If you are opening each picture in photoshop anyway, why not set up an action so that with one keystroke you can rotate each picture as required before re-saving.
