Save as DNG in Photoshop when editing from Lightroom

When transfering from Lightroom 2 to Photoshop CS3 (Windows) and after editing as a smart object in Photoshop how do I save the file back into Lightroom as a DNG file

You cannot save DNG files from photoshop. This is because DNG lacks the support for the features you need.

  • DNG files will not open in photoshop when launched from lightroom

    This just started, I can't open DNG files in photoshop when launching from within lightroom.  Not sure how to fix this.  the dng files launch fine from bridge.

    As for your issue with DNGs in CS, did you bother to update ACR to version 2.4?
    See the detailed instructions on the download page.
    >What I need to know is whether or not my PS CS will work with files converted by Adobe DNG.
    Of course ACR will, if you correctly install Adobe Camera Raw 2.4.
    No version of Photoshop opens raw or DNG files, only ACR does, hosted by Photoshop. But you do need at least version 2.4 of ACR, which was the first to support DNGs.

  • How can I do a Photoshop batch edit from Lightroom?

    In Bridge, I can go to tools > Photoshop > Batch and select a Photoshop Action to apply to some group of photos. Can I do this in Lightroom?

    IF you create a droplet you can drag the files directly from the Library Module on to it (Mac)
    If part of your process involves making derivative files from Raw then you can specify in the export dialog to run the droplet after processing.

  • Saturation Loss When Exporting from Lightroom.

    This happens to me when exporting from Lightroom 2 or 3. It happens regardless of the color profile, file format, bit depth, image size, compression, or the method of export. I regularly profile my one-year-old iMac monitor with an Eye One Display 2. My working color space for Photoshop CS4 is ProPhoto. After exporting, I am viewing the images in Photoshop, Safari, Firefox and Apple Preview, with the same result. I have used pretty much all the available export methods in Lightroom, including exporting with Lighroom ad-ons such as SlideshowPro. And, conversely, if I edit an image to my liking ourside of Lightroom, there is a saturation increase when I import it into Lightroom.  The effect tends to be most obvious and bothersome with shots taken outside on sunny days, with lots of blues and greens.  I am shooting raw files with a Canon 5d II and I use the Adobe Standard profile in Lightroom.
    There is a section at the back of Martin Evening's Lightroom book where he talks about the Lightroom color space and Lightroom versus Photoshop curves, which seems to relate to what I am seeing, but I have the feeling that what I seeing is more pronounced than what he is talking about there.  It is a real dullng of the look, not merely a slight difference in how the colors are rendered.

    Looks like Lightroom doesn't like your display profile.
    Try removing the profile (don't know how to do it on a Mac) to leave your display uncalibrated. Are the colors still different in Lightroom and Photoshop?

  • When I take a photo and try to edit in Photoshop Elements 11 from Lightroom 4, it brings me to PSE 11 and opens the photo in there, but doesn't allow me to do anything - no layers, masks...anything.

    I work on a PC - Windows Vista, and currently use Lightroom 4. When I try to choose the 'edit in' option and go to PSE11, it will go there and open the file, but it won't let me do anything with it.  All the buttons/masks...etc are faded out and when I scroll over them a circle with a line through it comes up. Is there any way to fix this so that when I edit-in from Lightroom to PSE11 that I can actually use it? And if not, how should I save my files then so I can re-open them in PSE11? Would they need to be JPEGs, or something else? I shoot in RAW.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hillsitter,
    I use a Windows PC and PSE Version 8.
    However, I set up the link to PSE by going to Edit > Preferences and
    clicking on the External Editing Tab.
    I then clicked on the 'Choose' box and browsed to > Program Files > Adobe >
    Photoshop Elements 8.0 and I then clicked on the Elements Organiser 8.0.exe
    file to create the Link to the Elements Organiser. I could have linked to
    the PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe file.
    I know this will be somewhat different on a Mac but the principle should be
    the same i.e. link directly to the .exe file.
    I hope this helps.

  • Image Bands/Corruption in Photoshop CS5 When Editing from Aperture

    I'm having some problems when editing Aperture images in Photoshop. When I choose an image I want to edit, it opens in PS CS5 with bands of corruption in the image. Now, I hate to use the term corruption, because when I zoom the image to 100%, the bands disappear, so the image isn't truly corrupted. You can see what's going on with the images here: http://gallery.me.com/drewje#100004
    I'm using Aperture 3.1.1 with RAW image formats and using an Aperture-managed library, not referenced. I've tried opening in Photoshop with both TIFF and PSD 16-bit formats with identical results. I'm using the high performance energy saver setting, to enable my NVIDIA GeForce 9600m video card in my first gen unibody MacBook Pro. I'm using version 12.0.2 of Photoshop CS5.
    I'm getting no help on the Adobe boards, so was hoping someone over here had some ideas or thoughts on how to fix this. Anyone?

    I'm just getting back to check on this thread now, but this does appear to fix the problem. I hate to call this "solved" because it's clearly a bug that exists, but it's nice that there's a workaround. I was just about to look at moving to Lightroom. I should be able to live with this.

  • Photoshop PSCC 2014 stops responding with NIK Collection Plugins and when loading from Lightroom 5

    I have lost the ability to be productive since purchasing the photographers CC plan and installing Photoshop CC 2014.
    1. Send photo from Lightroom 5.7 to PSCC 2014 then edit using photoshop and NIK collection plugin. Photo begins to loads into PSCC2014 then hang-up and PSCC stops responding causing me to force quit PSCC or photo loads into NIK Collection Plugin without any issues, editing is performed, but when I click "OK" the program hangs up, ( photoshop stops responding), resulting in a Force Quit and loss of all work.
    2. Send image from Lightroom 5.7 to Photoshop CC 2014 using "Edit In". PSCC2014 hangs up while loading image and has to be forced to quit or it loads photo, work is preformed and after clicking "SAVE" to return to LR 5.7 photoshop hangs up and stops responding, causing loss of all edited work.
    I have uninstalled PSCC 2014 along with presets and then reinstalled. No change in outcomes! I have updated and reinstalled the NIK Collection Plugin with no change in outcome. I am unable to get any work done for the last 4 days. I am considering canceling my CC account and trying to return to working with LR 5.7 and Photoshop CS6 as I had before purchasing CC photographers plan providing I can with success return to that configuration.
    Can anyone help? I sure hope so.
    Thanks… gwj

    Benjamin,
    Sorry it took so long to respond to your suggestion. Long work schedules doing video production have kept me away from my home base.
    I did as you suggested in you're reply and photoshop cc worked without issue and returned the photo work back to LR normally. So, I assume by this, that the issue is
    the NIK plug-in? Do you now what I can do to get the plug-in working correctly? Perhaps contacting Google/NIK for a solution?
    Any additional suggestions and knowledge you can pass along related to the issue at hand is greatly appreciated.

  • Editing from Lightroom 4 to Photoshop CS5

    HELP!
    My Lightroom 4 is not working great these days.
    1 - When importing my photos from my memory cards, my "Catologue" area in Lightroom is GONE, no where to be found. How can I recover this!? It was pretty important to me to have this option.
    2 - When I am wanting to edit a Lightroom 4 photo (CR2 file) into Photoshop (CS5), it wont work. What will happen is Photoshop will open, that photo I edited WONT save back into my Lightroon Library, it will save into my "PICTURES" section on my MAC laptop. What I want it to do, as its done before, is save it as a edited JPEG right back into LIGHTROOM so all my images are together. This is getting extremely frustrating !! I NEEED ALL THE HELP I CAN GET PLEASE ANYONE!

  • 64bit lightroom3 opens 32bit photoshop when "edit in"

    Hi,
    I have both 32bit and 64bit versions of Photoshop on my machine, simply because some of my plugins still only work in 32bit mode.
    The problem is that Lightroom 3 (running 64bit) defaults to the 32bit version of Photoshop when I choose 'edit in Photoshop' for an image.
    How can this be rectified ??
    Thanks,
    Jez

    On Windows, the path to the right Photoshop is stored in the Registry. On a Mac in a configuration file.

  • OpenGL issue when launching Photoshop CS5 Extended from Lightroom?

    I noticed about 2 weeks ago that the scrubby zoom and rotate commands stopped working.  Obviously OpenGL was not
    enabled and was greyed out, not letting me enable it.  I have a 295GTX video card with dual GPU's and I have updated all drivers NVidia 280.26.  When I went through the Adobe troubleshoot doc I reset my preferences/defaults by holding <CTRL><ALT><SHIFT> when launching Photoshop and it allows me to enable it.  I can even open a bunch of images and everything works but only if I open them FROM within Photoshop.  If I pick an image from Lightroom (Latest Version) and launch it to photoshop it will not allow me to run OpenGL features any longer and the only way I can get it to work again is to reset it doing the <CTRL><ALT><SHIFT> move.
    Any suggestions or knowlege of issues / bugs?

    As a temporary workaround, you can uninstall the driver and try using an earlier release.  Sometimes they break new things with new releases.

  • Elements won't open when trying to edit from Lightroom

    I was trying to move two photos from Lightroom to Elements to edit.  I click on the photos, tell it to edit in Elements and it goes thru the process, says complete, but Elements will not open????  I recently changed the default editor to CS5 with the alternate as Elements.  Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Oops, answered my own question.  Seems when I set up preferences, I goofed and somehow didn't get the correct app.  Sorry

  • Cannot save as jpeg in CS2 after exporting from lightroom

    I'm so frustrated. This began happening only a couple times here and there after starting to use lightroom (can't remember if it was the 1.4 version, or the beta version). I don't think it's my photoshop program, since I have completely re-installed it twice and reinstalled onto my computer.
    Anyway, now it's happening all the time. I export images from lightroom into CS2 to make final edits, sharpen for print, crop, etc and then photoshop will not let me save it as a jpeg. I can save as a psd, or a tiff, but not a jpeg. I have tried exporting in jpeg format, or tiff format, and everything is fine until I try to save either type as a jpeg. It lets me choose the quality, 10-12 etc, then when I click OK, A red box with "could not complete your request because of a program error" pops up.
    I have Vista, edit in sRGB, export in sRGB, etc..... just don't know what to do since I NEED to be able to edit and save to send to print. Please help.

    Find the solution here:
    http://www.flickr.com/groups/adobe_lightroom/discuss/72157607023379578/
    basically you delete the camera raw info put into the file that trips up CS2 (but not CS3!)

  • Image not being opened in Photoshop cc 2014 from Lightroom

    I am using the latest lightroom and photoshop.  When I go to an image in lightroom and right click, select edit in Photoshop cc 2014, it opens Photoshop straight away but it does not pass the image along... Any suggestions?

    I've tried everything I can think of to no avail.  It takes several minutes now to load an image from Lightroom into PS CC 2014.  PS CC 2014 is already open.  I just noticed a pattern.  If I edit a file (TIFF) format that has already been edited in PS and saved back to Lightroom, it loads very quickly.  However, if I am trying to process a RAW file, that is when I notice a significant lag time.furth
    SUCCESS!!!  Upon further investigation and seeing issues from other members regarding RAW cache issues I decided to move my RAW cache file path in LR to a different drive.  That seemed to fix the last issue.  I think the drive I had selected is going bad.  So the reinstall fixed my integration issues between LR and PS CC 2014 (thanks to everybody who suggested that) and changing my RAW cache file path seems to have fixed the last of my performance issues.  Now to reinstall my plugins and get back to editing my clients' images!

  • Photoshop Images Transferred from Lightroom

    Each time that I try to transfer an image from LR 4.1 to PSCS6 the transferred image shows blocky areas of transparency. (See the attached image for an example). These are not permanent in the image and sometimes go away when you change the View. With this one, I can't make it disappear.  I tried using Bridge to open the image in ACR and then PSCS6 and there are no such problems.  My normal workflow is Import to Lightroom and then Edit in Photoshop, when necessary. With some more testing, it seems that this effect happens only when Photoshop is not loaded, but is loaded when invoked from LR.  If PS is up and running, then the pictures transfer normally.  However, many times, I use Photoshop to edit a picture and then close it until I need it again.Note this is Win 7x64

  • Problems opening files when jumping from Lightroom 3

    Hello,
    I've been editing exclusively with LR3 since I switched over to Mac from PC a few months ago.  I finally got around to buying and installing PSE 9 for Mac today and set it up as an external editor in Lightroom.  However, when I try to jump from LR to PSE, the file doesn't open.  PSE opens, but no photo.  When I close PSE and go back to Lightroom, there are additional copies of the file there, suggesting that the file did in fact go over to PSE, but I couldn't see it. 
    Any tips on what I might be doing wrong or what I should try?  I'd appreciate the help. 
    Thanks!
    Jaye

    Hi Jaye
    This may be a Mac problem as some users on 10.6.4 have experienced erratic behavior with the PSE9 Editor. There are definitely bugs with OS6 and some Mac users have even switched back to OS5.
    The problem seems to disappear if both Organizer and Editor are in the dock. You may have no need of Organizer if you use Lightroom but it’s worth a try to see if you experience any change in behavior.
    Use Finder to locate the Organizer application and place it in the dock along with the Editor.
    The usual sequence from Lightroom after selecting a raw photo in the Library is:
    Cmd+E (select edit with light room settings and choose 8 bit tiff or PSD)
    Edit Image in PSE9
    Cmd+S (to save and click OK to overwrite the file created by Lightroom)
    Cmd+W to close in PSE9
    Return to Lightroom to view your edit.
    PSE9 has limited support for large 16 bit files and you can’t use layers which is why I recommend selecting 8 bit.
