Answers
1
You can make an action skip a step by selecting the Toggle item on/off check mark to the left of the
step.
2
To avoid overwriting existing files when a file name is added in an action, you can turn on the dialog
box for the save or export step. This allows you to change the name before saving the file. You can
also use a batch action in which you can include a File Naming script to change file names and add
extensions to them.

An error can occur when running the Photomerge action when the images have no significant overlap
in image data for Photoshop to match up.
