actions not available in batch commands

[nelsonmason]

I am trying to batch convert iPhone 14 photos to a smaller size from .hiec to give to people that don't have support for heic monitors.  I need to do color correcting: auto, tone, contrast, and downsize. I have PS 2023 and did this a few years ago. Here ia a pic of trying to set up a batch window. The drop down menu seems to show my only options. I have searched for help, but I think things have changed since a few ydars ago. I seem to be only able to get the default actions and settings. I also want to add keywords to my photos.

In your actions panel, load your saved .atn action set file so that it's available for the batch command.

You would need to save and load the old action that you previously created into the new Photoshop.

If you can't do that, then yes, you are going to need to re-create it.

If you can't remember how to record/create actions:
