CS3 wont open .psd files from Lightroom

I am working on a Mac in Lightroom 2.6, when I use the keyboard shortcut for open or toggle a file to open in CS3, the menus open alongside of the CS3 window but the images itself is not opening. I attempted to use the selection edit in CS3 without success also. I am able to use the selection edit in Photoshop Elements and the image opens in Photoshop Elements and I am unable to get the files/images to open in CS3. I might have struck an errant key at some time. I am about to pull what little hair I have left out. If anyone has the cure or remedy, it will save me from being bald thanks

Right-click on the psd in LR and select 'Edit in PHotoshop'.That will open it in Photoshop with its current filename or a new filename with Edit added to the end, with or without any LR edits you may have added to it.

How to open PSD files from lightroom

What's the easiest way to open a photo that was edited in LR and then passed to PS-CS3 and saved back to LR as a PSD. I can view the PSD photo in LR but then what's the quickest way to reopen it in PS to let's say make some more changes? Thanks.

Can't open psd files from Bridge CS6

Had both CS4 and CS6 installed, CS4 Bridge added itself when I wanted just CS6 Bridge, so uninstalled CS4. Now cannot open psd files from SC6 Bridge. What do I do?.

What is Bridge doing when you try to open the PSD file? Do you get a warning, does nothing happen? Did you open the preferences in CS6 bridge and set the file opening preferences to make sure they are set to PS CS6?

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!!

Elements 13 wont open raw files from Nikon d750

Elements 13 wont open raw files from Nikon d750 camera, wont update either from the help menu, any ideas what to do.

carper
According to Adobe document, you require installation of at least Camera Raw 8.7 for your Nikon 750 for your Photoshop Elements 13 and Premiere Elements 13.
https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
And, I believe based on the following that Photoshop Elements 13 Premiere Elements 13 ships with Camera Raw 8.6.
https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
Consequently, the solution appears to revolve around getting the Help Menu/Updates to work since there is no manual install of Camera Raw 8.7 for 13.
Until the Premiere Elements update problem is resolved, you may have to resort to using the Nikon software. There is also the DNG 8.7 Converter
which you can download from Adobe link, not requiring the Help Menu/Update as does Camera Raw 8.7.
Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7
There have been several reports of Help Menu/Update failures. I have not seen a generalized solution. I can only offer the
the typical "Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?"

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!

Can Photoshop CS3 be used with files from Lightroom 5?

I have Photoshop CS3 and I am considering buying Lightroom 5. Does anyone know if output from Lightroom 5 can be processed in Photoshop CS3?

The process engine in LR 5 is equivalent to ACR 8.1(Process version 2012) in PS CS 6 or PS CC.
So if you are using LR 5 you have the equivalent of the latest version of ACR, do all the processing of your raw files with Lightroom. When you are ready to make other advanced editing functions in PS CS3 you use the "edit in function" and a tiff or psd file is rendered by LR and sent to Photoshop.
The only disadvantage is that you cannot use the "edit in function" to make ACR in PS CS3 render the raw file with LIghtroom adjustments, since it is just not capable of reading the full adjustments from LR 5.
PS CS3 uses ACR 4.x (Process version 2003)
This is why you have to use LR to create the tiff/psd file for use in PS CS. In the final analysis when you have completed your work in PS CS you still are left with an additional file tiff/psd.

Excel 2008 wont open excel files from at WHS network share.

hi all
i have a strange problem here, i own a mac mini the 2.53ghz model bought a month ago, and a macbook (the white model) also bought a month ago, both running all the latest software updates, and office 2008 for mac, with all the latest updates
on the mac mini, i can´t open any excel documents that are stored on a shared folder on my windows home server, it just says
excel cannot open this file the file might have been damaged or modified from its original format
but when i try to open the same document on the macbook, it opens just fine?
i have tried to remove office 2008 and reinstall it on the mac mini, but that didnt help, and the strange thing is if i move the excel files, from my windows home server, to another windows home server, it opens just fine on the mac mini
i then suspected that it was the WHS that was ****** up, and deleted the account on the WHS where the folders were stored, rebooted the whs, and added the account again, but with the same result, the mac mini wont open the excel files, it will open word files, from the same folder.
and the macbook will still open both excel and word files, from the same folder?
i´m really confused now, and cant seem to pinpoint the error, and hope that someone can give me some pointers of where to look?
sincerely

You're pobably better off posting your question on Microsoft's own forums for their Mac products, as it's their software you're having issue with:

Open PSD files from Bridge to Photoshop CS6

In previous version I can open psd files to Photoshop with double clicks. Now it open to QuickTime only. How can I go back to the the old way? And I don't want to "place" the file to smart objerct either.
Please help.

Hi,
In Bridge cs6 look under the Bridge preferences (Ctrl+K or Cmd+K) and then under File Type Associations, where you can choose the applications to open files from bridge.

Aperture wont open raw files from my panasonic fz18

Hi Everyone, I have been using aperture 3 for about a year and have no problems opening raw files from my nikon camera but I thought I would use my old panasonic FZ18 when I go kayaking just in case the camera gets wet. To my surprise when I downloaded my raw files into Aperture from my FZ18 they would not open. Is there a codec or program update that will enable Aperture to open my raw files.
Thanks Colin

The FZ18, FZ35 and later are not supported by Apple RAW processing mostly due to the exotic barrel distortion correction that needs to be applied for wide angle shots. Even Adobe DNG converter will not convert the .RW2 files to DNG unless you use dngsanitize to remove the lens correction metadata. You can then bring the DNG files into Aperture.

Opening .psd Files from cs3 In CS5?

I'm new to photoshop CS5 and I'm getting this error on some PSD files "Could not complete your request because it is not a valid photoshop document" and I think its because these .psd files were made/saved in CS3. So is there any way I can open CS3 .psd files in CS5?
If CS3 .psd files should open fine in CS5, then does anyone know what could be my problem? thanks!

There should not be an issue with PSD's from CS3, in CS5. There were some compatibility issues way back, but Adobe offered the ability to include that backward compatibility.
My first thought would be that there is a problem with those particular PSD files. Do they Open in PS CS3? Do they Open fine in programs, like IrfanView?
Now, if there IS an issue with CS5, someone will correct my assertions.
Good luck,
Hunt

CS3 Hangs Open a File from a DVD

I was opening some images from a DVD and everything was ok. Then Photoshop hung up and I had to force quit. After that I could not open any files even ones on my local drive. I launched other CS3 apps and they worked fine opening from both the DVD and the local drive. I launched Photoshop and created a new image and tried to save it and it hung up. Finally I launched photoshop and quit it without trying to open anything, then launched it again and it worked. I also had rebooted the machine at times in this sequence.
A few days later I put a DVD in and it happened again. This time nothing worked until I removed the DVD from the drive.
Every application can read and open files from the DVD drive including other Adobe apps. I am not sure if this is an issue with Photoshop CS3 or the drive. Can just Photoshop have trouble accessing the drive?

Gary,
There have been several reports here of folks who have problems using their computers (and/or Photoshop) if there is a disc in the drive as you have. As I recall, the solution (or workaround, if you prefer) is simply to copy whatever files you need for the day's session off the disc onto your hard drive. Remove the disc from the drive.

Photoshop CS3 wont open any files?

I'm running photoshop cs3 and recently every time I try and open a file nothing happens, well what happens is I see the open file box pop up and disappear and then I can not do anything in PS, every time I click something I hear a noise and thats it, I have to restart Photoshop.
The only way to open a file is if I drag and drop a file in PS.
I'm running windows XP service pack 2 if that helps at all, and yes I have reinstalled and the problem still persists.

and if that doesn't work, try this:

After a recent upgrade I am no longer able to open NEF files from Lightroom to Photoshop

I receive the error: The file could not be edited because Adobe Photoshop CS6 could not be launched. After the error, LR creates a tif file and that does open up in PS. I have uninstalled and reinstalled PS and LR but the error comes back. I am running LR 5.7 and PS CS6 both with ACR 8.7. I have seen numerous posts on this issue but I have not found any resolution.
Please help.

Thankyou for your suggestion. I launched the updater from Bridge and now all my files have returned.
Thanks once again

I cannot open a file from LR5 into CC2014 unless it is a smart object. also will not save back to LR at all it gives me an error message "Line: 1 - photoshop.notifyLightroomDocClosed ('lightroom-2.0', 'B53AFA39-A49B-4709-A9BD-0B6467C175C3', 'Macintosh H

I cannot open a file from lightroom into CC2014 unless I open it as a smart object. CC opens, just will not display my image. i am given an error code when I save an image, and can only save to my desktop or other locations, not automatically back into my lightroom.
I am using LR5 latest update, as well as CC2014
Below is the error message:
Line: 1 -> photoshop.notifyLightroomDocClosed ('lightroom-2.0', 'B53AFA39-A49B-4709-A9BD-0B6467C175C3', 'Macintosh HD:Users:BPexposures:Desktop:_DSC5962 as Smart Object-1.psd');

I was also having this issue, and I did some more searching and found this answer in the Adobe forums: Re: Photos from Lightroom 5 to Photoshop CC (2014) and back.... The issue appears to be caused by having not updated Lightroom to the latest version prior to having CC2014 installed (wow that's stupid). The trick seems to be to uninstall Photoshop CC2014 and to then reinstall it after having upgraded to Lightroom 5.5.
