Corrupt files from Lightroom.

I use Lightroom 5.3, Photoshop CC 14.2, OSX 10.9.1 and Nef files from D3s and D800.
When I use croptool or lenstool in Lightroom and then try to open them in PS the files are corrupt or don´t open.
If I open a file wich I haven´t modified in LR then PS works.
With Apple Aperture and Capture One there are no problem.
What shall I do?

There's currently a problem which seems to trigger on a combination of LR5.3/PS/Mavericks/Nik Plug-ins. You have 3 out of 4, don't know about the Nik plug-ins.

How do you separate corrupt files from good files on a external hard drive importing them to my macbook pro

how do you separate corrupt files from good files on a external hard drive importing them to your macbook pro

You open them one at a time into thier respective programs and see if they are good or not and then send the bad ones to the Trash and the good ones to the appropriate folder.

Can photoshop CC open raw files from Lightroom 5?

Trying to open raw files from Lightroom 5 in Photoshop CC 2014, with no luck.
Anyone?

Problems are as follows— all versions are current.
1. When in Lightroom, trying to open a photo in Photoshop,-- choosing Photo>Edit in Photoshop CC 2014— Photoshop opens but no photo appears. The only time a photo opens is if it is a JPEG… CR2 does not open, dng does not open
2. When trying to open a JPEG in Photoshop, dialog box opens offering choice between "Edit Original", "Edit a copy", or "Edit with Lightroom adjustments", Only choosing “Edit Original” allows photo to open.
3. When in Photoshop choosing “Browse in Bridge” does not open Bridge… opens CC app and prompts me to install another version of Bridge, or keep version I have. (See attached screenshot) Either way it’s a malfunction… as I said earlier all versions are leanest.
PLEASE HELP!!

Photoshop CC locking up saying "Reading Camera Raw Format" when opening file from Lightroom

When I open a file from Lightroom, CC opens and asks about sending data to Adobe, and no matter what answer you give the program locks up at the "Reading Camera Raw Format" prompt.

What files from which camera do you use? Where are they stored? What system? Are Lightroom and Photoshop properly updated and use the same RAW settings? Provide more info.

How to recover my files from Lightroom Catalog?

I lost my (NEF) files from hard drive.My Lightroom 1.4 Catalog is on separate hard drive.It is possible to recover my files?

If you have no way of recovering the original .nef files then these are gone forever.
The best then that you can hope for is to extract .jpg files from Lightroom's Preview files. These are in the .lrdata folder next to your catalog (.lrcat) files. Your results will also depend on the size/quality of previews that you had generated.
If you are on Windows (I have only ever tried this on Windows Xp), then you can download lightroom_recover from here:
http://www.ploki.info/index.php?pagename=Main.LightRoomRecover
It will extract .jpg, but they have the same unwieldy names as Lightroom gives to the preview (.noindex) files.
If you still have the disc from which you lost your .nef files it may be worth searching for a data/image recovery program or indeed having a look at recycle/trash first.

Open one than more file from Lightroom to photoshop at the same time

Hi,
i'm a PS Elements-User and i have a question. Is it possible to open more than 1 file from lightroom into photoshop with one click? Thank you in advance for helping me.

I use PSE9 and send several derivate files (TIFFs) from LR to PSE9 all the time to do panos.
I've recorded a little screen capture showing 4 images being sent to PSE9 from LR3.6. You can see the 4 tiffs being added to the catalog before calling PSE9 and then the 4 TIFFs arrive in PSE9.
What Operating System do you use? Can you show a screenshot of the external editor settings for PSE?

Major problem: I can not export NEF files from Lightroom

This is just plain weird: I can't export NEF files from Lightroom 2. I can export any other file format, but not NEF. With Lightroom 1 this was no problem.
It makes no difference whether I choose the export command with my mouse, via the menu or with a key stroke - nothing happens.
Lightroom version 2.0
Camera Raw version 4.5.0.175
Camera Nikon D3
Photoshop CS3 version 10.0.1
MacOsX version 10.5.4
I've called Adobe, and they simply don't know. I have reinstalled Lightroom 2 with no succes. Restarting, repairing permissions, nothing helps.
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Marsel

Marsel, your language is confusing, First, you cannot 'export' NEFs to PS. You can send a copy there from within LR as a tif or psd.
Exporting per se takes place through the Library module under the Export function. When Nef's are exported by choosing 'original' in the export dialogue, the file is the 'original' NEF accompanied by an XMP. That Nef, if opened directly in PS from your file system should appear in the Camera Raw window, where you can make whatever new edits on it you want or change the original adjustments you made in LR. Then, once you open that file in PS from the Camera Raw window, any further work you do will be pixel editing. That work can then be saved in a number of formats, but not as a NEF.
Transferring files to PS from LR for editing is another matter. That sends a copy of the original NEF, including LR adjustments to PS as either a Tiff or a PSD (your choice via the dropdown). After you have edited that Tiff or PSD in PS and hit save, it will send a copy back to LR as a Tiff or PSD, which will appear next to the original nef.
These procedures work perfectly on both my windows 32 and 64 bit machines with LR2 and 2.1. with all my NEFs from several camera models.
When you say 'export' do you really mean sending a copy to PS or do you mean 'Export' as LR defines that term?

Opening RAW File from Lightroom is automatically saving a PSD or TIFF. How to turn this off?

I recently upgraded to LightroomCC and Photoshop CC however now when I go to open my RAW files from lightroom it is automatically saving a PSD copy when the file is opened. I don't want it to do that because I don't need those files - for some of my stuff I just need to open the file, edit, and save a jpg when done. This was not a feature on the older version of Lightroom and I can't find any place to turn this off.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks!

Erase a corrupted file from Premier without opening

Is there any way to erase a corrupted file from Premiere without opening it? Choosing to "Skip" the file when it asks for its location does not help. It is still on the timeline and freezing up the opening process. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the advice. I used the term "corrupted" in a very loose way. The file is not officially corrupt but it is the one that was hanging up the program. What was weird is that my auto backup copy (which I am now using) was only 31 megs where as the ppro file that was hanging was 110. Not sure how it almost quadrupled in size?
How do I go about deleting rendered files?

Corrupted files in Lightroom

I just took pictures at a Race last weekend (took 1,000 pictures), and about a dozen of them are corrupted in Lightroom (see attached screen capture).
If I open them from the card in Photoshop, they're OK, but in Lightroom they are corrupted.
Anybody has seen this? Why are they corrupted?
Shot Raw. Canon 20D. Mac OS 10.4.11. Lightroom 2.4
Thanks.

YES A POSSIBLE SOLUTION (cut-to-the-chase at the bottom):
my equipment:
iMac - 2.33Ghz core2duo - 4GB RAM - Snow Leopard
External USB 1.5TB+ where the RAW files go
Lexar firewire 800 CF card reader (this was introduced into my workflow... things started to get corrupt when I factored this into the equation)
Genaric USB card reader
16GB Kingston @ 133x (a few of these... could be the problem too)
16GB SanDisk Extreeme III 30MB/s
5D mkii
Lightroom 2.5 (CAMERA RAW 5.5)
back story: I've only been searching for about a few hours (after I discovered the corrupt files). I called Adobe... not the people you want to call when you have a fustrating situation like this... cause you get and indian guys, who is hard to talk to and super slow and pretty much said there is no solution. He didn't see if there where other people who had this problem or ask another support person... just cannot fix it. Shame on Adobe for hiring people who are hard to talk to and don't really understand. Adobe support = F in my books.
Sorry, back to the backstory. I had no problems or any corrupt files until recently. I would get one here and there, but no to the point that ever twenty pictures a few in a series would be corrupt and have white and pink lines and such.
Possible problem: There could be multiple factors it could be, and I'm slowly pining them down. I ultimately think it is combination of equipment I have especially pertaining to the LEXAR Firewire 800 card and the Kingston 133x cards. I'm definitly gonna change up my combination of equipment. My speculation is I think the LEXAR 800 is ripping the files too fast from the card reader.
MY SOLUTION:
I faced the fact... this is an project from a month ago and I've used my CF cards numerous of times, so I know the pictures are gone... no way to recover them from the cards again. So I did find a program called FILE JUICER (mac only, sorry) that extracts the JPG from the RAW file. Works great... even better is that the JPGs are all 21 mega pixels, yippie! So thanks File Juicer for saving the day!
I hope the person who ends up with the same problem will find this post.

Crash in develop module RAW files with sidecar files from Lightroom 3

The issue probably has to do with the differences in settings between the two versions but I figured I would document what I am experiencing.
I am using the 64 bit version of Windows 7.
I imported a group of pictures with the XMP sidecar files generated with Lightroom v3. All the image files, a mixture of Canon Mark 5D II RAW and jpg files from my point & shoot UFO camera, imported without issue picking up all my tagging and GPS settings. When importing you are put into the Library module and from the Library module I could click on any RAW or jpg file, look at the meta data and view full screen.
I then entered the Develop module with a jpg picture selected and none of my settings made it across. The process was set to 2012. I was able to try out the new adjustments and all worked very well.
I then selected a RAW file while still in the Develop module and all hell broke loose.
I got a tip window pop up, the film strip went orange, the rest of the app screen then became greyed out and then behind tip pop up a crash window containing this information appeared:

There was no other path but to have the app close after that. Now since Lightroom has left off with the RAW file in the develop module when I restart the app it starts in the develop module with that same RAW image selected and I crash before I can change to a jpg. I am probably going to have to delete and recreated the data file to use the app again
After the all this I went back and checked to see how I had the catalog settings in LR 3 set because there were no sidecar files for the jpg images. I did not have the option to write settings to jpg and tif files but did have write settings to sidecar set. So I have a bit of a mystery why I have no sidecar files for jpg files when I should have based on the way the settings were. This probably explains why I had no issues at all with them in LR 4.
I am going to get LR 4 working again and then import the same batch of pictures without any sidecar files and see if I have any issues. I will report back soon.

When I imported the files without the sidecar files I had no issues at all but the RAW images came under older process not the 2012 process. There were no settings without the sidecar files so why would the app not start the images at the most recent process level? I updated then to 2012 and some of the setting sliders changed. I tried all the adjustment might use with both RAW and jpg files and no issues were observed.
The new develop module does seem to light darker areas without impacting other lighter areas better. The brush toll does work better and I see some additional settings were added along with presets.
As I posted elsewhere, I am disappointed content aware fill and healing were not included. This is the functionality that would save me from going to Photoshop when I have some undesirable reality in an image.
I tried out the new geo coding functionality and I really like it as it beats using Google maps on the web (painfully slow these days), dropping latitude / longitude markers, copying and pasting the data from the markers into a Lightroom plug-in and then going through a time consuming three step process.

Sending Raw files from Lightroom 4 to Elements

Hi,
I am using the trial version of Photoshop Elements 11.
However, I can't send Raw files directly to Elements from Lightroom 4. Only PSD, Tiff or Jpegs.
I have downloaded the latest camera Raw plug ins so both Elements and Lightroom have Camera Raw 7.3.
Please can anyone help.

Hi,
Lightroom 4 doesn't contain a native ability to do what you are asking, but I wrote a plugin that might help you do what you want. It's called TPG Elemental. It helps with those many situations (e.g. creating panoramas or opening files in layers) where creating intermediate files on disk is pointless and just creates more work (or consumes more disk space) for you to manage.

Can't open a raw file from Lightroom to Photoshops ACR

I got used to using Lightroom 3 as a place to catalogue and store my images but still process my Raw files in Adobe Photoshops Raw Convertor. Now that I have Lightroom 5 I can't find out how to do this. With version 3 I just highlighted say 3 files and hit command E.
I know I can open an image as a smart object and go about it that way but I can't open multiple images from Lightroom to ACR.
I know people will say '' hey well do your Raw work in Lightroom'' but I got used to using the Photoshop Raw convertor and I spent a lot of time and money learning it.
Surely there is a way to open say three images from L5 to ACR ???
Please help this has been driving me nuts, It's suggested I will need to start using Bridge but I'm bewildered and don't want to start learning something new.
Thanks in advance.

It has been a long time since I even had Lightroom 3 installed on my computer. I don't recall the behavior you are describing. ACR is used to translate the adjustments made in Lightroom as the image is transferred to Photoshop. You may have become accustomed to a certain behavior, but it doesn't work that way. The process of moving from Lightroom to Photoshop works on the assumption that you have done your raw adjustments using Lightroom, and you are now passing that image to Photoshop.

Organize files from Lightroom Mobile on Hard Drive

Hi! I am working on refining my workflow for getting images from my iPhone into Lightroom. One approach I'm considering is to use Lightroom Mobile's Camera Roll auto-import feature, since it works pretty consistently well, and would allow me to start rating and sorting images on either my iPhone or iPad, and do heavier editing when I get back to the desktop. My idea is I'd have an "Inbox" where images are coming in from the iPhone (either that I've shot with the iPhone itself, or transferred to the Camera Roll from an Eye-Fi card -- but that's neither here nor there), and I could sort them into other collections when I get back to the desktop.
Quick background note: I'm coming from Aperture, where I had referenced files on an external hard drive, neatly organized in folders by year > month > day, and named in <yyyy-mm-dd> - at - <hh-mm-ss>.ext format, easily searchable via the filesystem, if need be (yeah, I read The DAM Book).
My problem with this Lightroom Mobile workflow so far, is that once the images get into Lightroom on the desktop, the image files are buried somewhere in the Mobile Downloads.lrdata folder, eating up space on my internal hard drive. I'd love it if I could have them stashed away on my external drive, where all my other photos live.
So - my question is, does anyone have suggestions for how to go about moving them to that external drive, respecting the organizational structure I've got in place (folder + file naming convention)? They don't necessarily have to stay synced with Lightroom Mobile once I've started organizing inside of Lightroom on the desktop, although that would be nice. Or is this a ridiculous and convoluted way of getting images into Lightroom on the desktop? How are other people handling this kind of scenario? I'm not averse to something script-y, like AppleScript or maybe a Hazel recipe, but I could use some suggestions for getting started in the right direction.
As an aside, this all started for me when a) I bit the bullet and switched to Lightroom at the beginning of the year (the writing was on the wall, way before Apple announced they were killing it), and b) I started shooting with an Eye-Fi card in my Fuji X100S. Unless I'm shooting RAW (which I rarely do with that camera), it's so easy to sync images wirelessly over to my phone, and seems redundant to then import images off of the card into Lightroom.
Anyway, thanks for any suggestions you might have.

I want to take all of the photos off of my computer and put them on an external hard drive. If I am in lightroom and plug in my external hard drive, if i just move all the folders over to the external hard drive does take them off of my comptuer?
Also, what I want to do is make one folder for each calender year along with the edits made to the photos. So, If I back up my catolog and move it over with the photos, that means that all of the edits I made on those photos will stay with those photos?
With having all my photos off the computer, if I wanted to reopen a folder from my external hard drive through lightroom, will they will automatically open with all the edits still done to them?
Point 1: yes Lightroom will move them from your computer to the external. However I wouldn't recommend doing this, I would copy the files from the computer to the external using your OS and when you have verified the copy is ok and you have "Updated the folder location" in Lightroom then you can delete the folders from your computer.
Point 2: You can do this manually in Lightroom using the Sort options to achieve the older you want or craete a new catalog and import from your current one and at the import stage move the files to new folders with date order.
Point 3: yes it will but you will not be able to "work" the files that are on the offline drive unless you have generated Smart Previews.

CS2 problem with 5D MKII RAW files from Lightroom 2.2

Ok, this one is weird. I have tried it on two different computers with the same resulting problem. If I convert a full size RAW 5D MkII to Tiff in the new Lightroom 2.2, then bring it into CS2 and covert it to 8-bit and try to save as JPG, it always comes up with a program error. I tried an sRAW file with the same process and it worked fine.
Just to make sure I did have something else messed up, I converted in DPP to tiff and then went to CS2 and saved as JPG just fine.
Anyone else try this and see a problem? Looks like it's a combination of a problem with the new Lightroom, plus CS2.
It almost seems like CS2 doesn't have enough memory to convert the file to jpeg. I have had this program error before in CS2, but with much larger files. The 5D MKII should not overrun memory.

This is a known bug in CS2 where it trips up because of the (valid) metadata written by Lightroom. You need to delete the xmp metadata written by Lightroom from the file before saving as jpg or export from lIghtroom with minimize metadata checked.
