After editing image in Photoshop the saved result doesn't look the same in Lightroom

If I edit a photo in Photoshop and then save the photo, and then view the saved photo (not the original) back in Lightroom in Develop mode, the photo does not look the same as it does in Photoshop.  The dark shadows have been crushed in Lightroom.  If I look at it in Expose mode it looks good, but in Develop it the blacks and dark shadows are darker than the image appears in Photoshop.  This is a newer problem for me, I'm not sure when it started.
I'm using:
Lightroom 5.5
Photoshop CC 2014
Mac Pro 8-core 2008
ATI Radeon HD 5770 GPU
Mac OS X 10.9.4
Apple 30" Cinema Display, calibrated with a Spyder3 Elite but the calibration doesn't seem to matter, I can change to another profile (e.g. a stock profile not from the Spyder) and still see the same problem.
This seems to happen with Photoshop CC prior to 2014 as well.

I'm using ProPhoto RGB in Photoshop.  I have a test file that shows this issue: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/84023411/shadows_test.psd
This is a 16-bit ProPhoto RGB image with just 2 colors.  The top part of the image is filled with RGB 10,10,10 and the bottom half is 0,0,0.  If I open this file in Photoshop and use Apple's DigitalColor Meter utility to read the displayed values of the color of the top, using "Display native values", the result is 18,18,18.  I expect it to be different than 10,10,10 due to the display profile but I would expect the same image viewed in Lightroom's Develop module to also read as 18,18,18 in the top half.  But when I do this (import the PSD into Lightroom and open in Develop) the Meter reads 12,12,12.  If I view the PSD in Loupe mode in Lightroom the Meter reads as expected, 18,18,18.
The difference should also be noticeable to your eye (at least mine) without using any measurements.
The result is that the dark shadows appear crushed when editing in Lightroom Develop mode.
The problem happens on both my 2008 Mac Pro with an ATI Radeon HD 5770 GPU and on my 2013 MacBook Air, although the values read on the Air are different than the Pro due to display profiles.
Normally, of course, I'm editing a RAW file in Lightroom and open that up in Photoshop (cmd+e), but this test seems to show that it happens with non-RAW files.

  • While using a drop-down menu i.e. File, edit, image, or even when saving as and choosing the file type; the list appears and I am able to highlight what i want but cannot click on anything.

    While using a drop-down menu i.e. File, edit, image, or even when saving as and choosing the file type; the list appears and I am able to highlight what i want but cannot click on anything. This is becoming incredibly frustrating. It happens at random time and a restart of the computer is all that helps, then with out any notice it starts to do this again.  Mac Book Pro i7 2.2 16 GB 1333 Ram, (2) 450GB SSD both internal to machine. At this point I am losing file because I am unable to save in the file type I need. Does anyone out there know how to solve this issue?
    Thanks

    I haven't been unify photoshop much in the past month, but I did try your suggestion and it seemed to work for a while. Today when i went to save a document the same thing happened: click on file>save at this point I can not click on save even though it is highlighted. Tryed to use command s that brings up the save dialogue box, but when I try to change file type I again cannot select it from the drop down menu.

  • I created an image in Photoshop and saved it as the PSD file. Now when I try and open it it says it is not compatible with my version. How could this be when I created it in this version?

    That depends on why it won't open.  Most of the time it means the file is corrupted and unlikely to be recovered. If you saved it right after adding or copying a LOT of layers - then it might just be the layer limit and we can attempt to recover it.

    Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS.  So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

    Want to edit image using photoshop elements
    Did the following
    IPhoto>Preferences>Advanced>Edit Photos: In drop down menu chose in Photoshop Elements
    Also control click and chose edit in external editor
    Drop down menu edit photos in external program>photoshop Elements
    Go to to the image I'm working on  --- selected the image, the clicked on edit. When nothing happened I double clicked the image. Still elements didn't open. Then I opened the Elements editor, went back to iphoto and tried the entire process again. the photo still didn't open on Elements 13 for editing.
    I have 3 Elements 13 books as well as looked on line--all my references say the exact same thing ---- iPhoto>Preferences>advanced>edit in external program>photoshop Elements
    I uninstalled and reinstalled both iPhoto as well as Elements.
    I spoke with application technical support.  There appears to be nothing wrong with my copy of iPhoto.  However there is no support from Adobe.  I waited for over 1.5 hours for chat support several days ago, and finally gave up.

    You are probably choosing the obvious file rather than the correct file as the PSE editor. The actual editor is hidden away inside the Support Files folder. The PSE file at the top level of the PSE folder in Applications is just an alias for the welcome screen and what you're describing is exactly what happens when you choose that. You want this one:

    But the Library is not a program.  I use SuperDuper, and it is smart enough to treat Finder Packages (such as the Library) as a whole bunch of files and folders, and overwrites only those that have changed.  Can't CCC be set up the same way?

  • How to hide the Save Results Layout checkbox on the Create Saved Search pop

    I need to hide the Save Results Layout checkbox on the Create Saved Search popup. Can anyone tell me how to do it?
    This popup is used when the user is on a query (rendered by the af:query component) and they select click the "Save..." button. The have three options, Set as Default, Run Automatically, and Save Results Layout. I have an implementation that supports everything except saving the layout. So I need to hide that checkbox.
    Thanks,
    Mike

    For anybody else who needs to do this, here is how I did it.
    Add this to your css
    /* This hides the Save Results Layout checkbox on the Create Saved Search screen */
    span[id$='saveLayout'] {
    visibility: hidden;
    }

  • The overall result shows * instead of the value

    Dear Experts,
    In my report i've qty in columns and item in rows. The qty is in all Ea. (Each). So when i run the report i thought all the noumber would be added for qty and displayed in the overall result.
    But in the overall result it shows a * . However in the formula bar in excel it displays a number like 44000.
    I tried using nodim() and it worked, but my question is since the qty is in all Ea.'s shouldnt it add up the value to be displayed in the overall result.
    Can someone shed some light.
    Thank you...

    No Jr., i dont any record with a blank value.
    Wond, i agree with you. I thought i should see the total since all the items are in Ea.
    Is there anything else i can check.

    The picture in the gallery is correct. The picture you are looking at before you capture it is a mirror image such as you are used to looking at, otherwise you would not be able to handle it.  Look at More Like This >>>>>>>

  • Publishing server doesn't work - error 'The request URL doesn't contain the query string for the client OS'

    Hi,
    I'm trying to setup an App-V environment in my lab.
    I've used the App-V 5.0 Trial guide to help me configure all necessary components.
    I'm able to install everything without error.
    when come time to publish an app, it simply doesn't show up on my client.
    after looking at events on the client and server, I found that the Publishing server is returning under Admin the following message.
    'The request URL doesn't contain the query string for the client OS'
    My setup is pretty simple.
    App-V Server managament and Publishing on the same box
    App-V database on my SQL server.
    I'm able to see the publishing "webpage" by using http:://localhost:889.
    It only display this :
    -<Publishing Protocol="1.0"
    <Packages />
    </Publishing>
    I've published one app from the management console.
    any idea what could mean this error?

    Hi,

    Hi, I have probably the same or related problem.
    After I made the upgrade to 10.8, the camera (integrated iSight) started making problems.
    When I log out or restart, everything works (PhotoBooth, Skype), but after a couple of days running
    the integrated iSight can not be accessed any more. Skype and PhotoBooth say "no camera".
    About my configuration:
    I have a 15" Macbook Pro Mid 2009, 2.53GHz with Nvidia 9400M 256MB RAM.
    I hope the coming update 10.8.2 will fix it.
    This is the my first time, where after an upgrade something stops working.
    I would almost say, this must related to Sleep/Resume because I never shut down my notebook,
    except for calibrating the battery.
