DXO now offering LightRoom Plug-n

Users of DXO Optics Pro will find a free upgrade to 4.5 that also features a plug-in to LightRoom, allowing users to either import images into LR and then into DXO and back out again to LR (probably the better option) or to import photos into DXO and then transfer them to LR (seems like you might miss the import functionality that LR offers).

Yeah, I hope DxO is updated so that it becomes a true plugin. I downloaded and gave it a try. Works well on my wide-angle shots with my Canon 5D full-frame sensor. Not so useful for my 1DMarkII and non-wide-angle shots.
Way too slow in launching from LR, adjusting and coming back to be useful as part of my LR workflow - better if you're adjusting a few prize images. TIF metadata also lost when file comes back into LR so you have to resync.
In conclusion, not useful in its current form to use well within LR's fast workflow. And the software isn't cheap.

    From Wes and Harry:
    October 28, 2011
    If you missed our mail last month you should check it out as it got a lot of people talking. Today we have a follow-up.
    Our web site has relaunched* and while the overall look of the site is similar there is a dramatic difference in how we are distributing our plug-ins.
    Starting today Pro Import AE, Pro Import FCP and Pro Export FCP (both versions, for FCP7 and FCPX) are available at no charge. You read this right. Free.
    We are unable to provide support at the same level as we have over the years, but we didn't want these plug-ins to go away while they remain useful. So if you can make use of these plug-ins in your projects, enjoy!
    Thank you to all of our users, working with you for the last 10 1/2 years was a truly wonderful experience.

    I don't have anything to add to my original reply - http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1433512. Which bit didn't you understand? And no, you don't need a folder for kaleidoscopes - you just put it in the filters folder as I originally told you.

  • Nokia offers FREE plug-ins for some devices not supported by iSync 2.4

    Nokia is now offering free plug-ins for otherwise unsupported Nokia mobile handsets in Mac OS X 10.4.9 and iSync 2.4 configurations. All support both Bluetooth and USB synchronization, and work only with Mac OS X 10.4.9 and iSync 2.4, bundled with it. The plug-ins listed below can be downloaded from Nokia here:
    http://www.nokia.com/A4299040
    Supported models include the…
    • E50
    • E60
    • E61i
    • E65
    • E70
    • N76
    • N93i
    • N95

    That's a good point, and I should have taken the time to point that out.
    It's not particularly important that Nokia has chosen to offer free plug-ins for a limited number of their mobile handsets not presently supported by iSync. The really important thing here is that a manufacturer has actually chosen to support the technology at all!
    I do support a vibrant developer community, and think that Nova Media and others who have taken the time to create plug-ins and, who continue to support them, deserve to be compensated for their efforts. It worth noting that Nova Media was out front with support for Nokia mobile handsets about a year before Nokia itself chose to offer support. And, as Jan points out, they continue to support units that Nokia itself does not.

  • DxO 4.5 with plug-in for Lightroom available

    Another great news, DxO released update 4.5 to its Optics Pro software. It incorporates a Photoshop plug-in and a Lightroom plug-in as well.
    You can send files from Lightroom to DxO, as you already do with LightZone, including autostacking with original... but you can also send files to Lightroom from DxO standalone version.
    Good stuff. DxO made clear that they want to push integration further but, for this, Adobe has to hurry with SDK release...
    Gilles.
    more info @ www.dxolabs.com

    Craig, I believe the DxO pdf manual (p.16) mentions that DxO always returns files in TIF format (http://www.dxo.com/intl/photo/learning/tutorials/dxo_optics_pro/integrating_dxo_optics_p ro_v4_5_and_above_with_adobe_lightroom)
    "Hint: RAW images edited by the DxO Optics Pro plug-in will always be returned to Lightroom as a 16-bit TIFF."
    If I've misinterpreted this and someone knows how to return the file in DNG or RAW format please let me know. I'd much rather continue Lightroom adjustments on a RAW file than a TIF file, especially since my 16bit TIF files are about 50-60MB compared to 13MB for my 5D .cr2 files.
    Wick, I'm not sure about the sidecar comment either. I have XMP sidecar files created and updated for all my .cr2 files but the metadata was still lost after the round-trip.
    Thanks for helpful comments guys.
    I really want DxO to work but it just isn't elegant when you need to process hundreds to thousands of different images quickly, which is what LR does very well. I do mainly travel photography so my favorite lens is the Canon 24-105 f/4L. Didn't realize how much distortion happened on the wide-angle side as I used to travel with a Canon 1DMarkII (1.3 crop factor). I'm now travelling with a Canon 5D and unfortunately that full-frame DSLR really shows up weaknesses in lenses :(

    But sorry for my ignorance. I understand how you mean it, but I don't know how to do it. I'm scared to lose the settings/edits of the images.

  • My external hard drive is no longer connecting. I was getting a message every time I plugged it in that it needed to be reformatted so I tried to do so and now when I plug it in the computer does not recognize it. It only shows up in utilities...

    Hey guys, I need some serious help. I have an external hard drive, iomega which apears to no longer work; I am sure it is something I have done and I cant figure out what! I am certainly not a computer expert and am in Turkey so I dont have access to a MAC store for assistance or anything like it. Yesterday I plugged my external hard drive into my MacBook and got a message telling me to refotmat. I looked up how to do so and through disk utilities thought I did it right. Now when I plug in the hard drive my laptop does not pick it up; the only place it shows up is in utilities, the same place I tried to repair and reformat. When I am utilities it looks like I have 2 hard drives, one under the other. One tells me the description of the hard drive, the other doesnt really tell me anything. So I erased both of them and I think that is where my problem is. Any help on how I could fix this? I tried to "mount" the one that is not "mounted but it didnt work....I dont even know what that means!!! Help!

    When you erased the disk did you select Mac OS Extended Journaled as the format option?

  • As an update, I installed an update 5.7on my Mac laptop, now the Lightroom 5.0 has become a "Lightroom Mobile" version.  How can change it back to the laptop version?

    As an update, I installed an update 5.7on my Mac laptop, now the Lightroom 5.0 has become a "Lightroom Mobile" version.  How can change it back to the laptop version 5.7?
    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    LR on your laptop is still a desktop version.  It is just now able to upload to the cloud to replicate photos to either http://lightroom.adobe.com/ or an iPad that has LR Mobile installed.
    I think you probably just want to change the LR 5 identity plate back so it doesn’t mention LR Mobile all the time.  Hover over the identity-plate area, and click on the little triangle that appears, then choose Change Identity Plate.

    I updated to 7.1 and now when I plug my phone into the computer, it says there are no pictures??????  When I have 500 pictures on it!!!!!  Im soooooo mad I did the update! Worst decision ever!!!!!!!!!!   I am SOOOO ready to leave the IPHONE alone- maybe throw it in the river or lay it on the train tracks.   Its been NOTHING BUT TROUBLE since the update!

    Just to be clear: Tap on the Photos app to start the app. Then tap on Albums at the bottom of the screen. You might have several albums but only one is named "Camera Roll." Are there photos in that album?
    If there are NO photos in the Camera Roll album there are no pictures to import. The remaining albums might have come from a sync with your computer or they might be your PhotoStream.
    If there ARE photos in the Camera Roll album, connect your iPhone to your computer and start your camera application on the computer. Your phone should be recognized as a camera.

  • If i selected to "Create a new backup" and then cancelled that option but want to go back and select "Inherit backup history"; how do i go back and do that since now when i plug in my HD, that option doesn't appear anymore?? Any Help?

    If i selected to "Create a new backup" and then canceled that option but want to go back and select "Inherit backup history"; how do I go back and do that since now when I plug in my external hard drive, that option doesn't appear anymore?? Any Help? I bought a MacBook Air, but decided to return it for the newest model, and I wanted to back it up so that I can then back it up on my new MacBook Air. I didn't understand the option to Inherit or start a new back up, and therefore selected the option to create a new backup. I believe I should have selected to Inherit backup history so that when i back it up on the new MackBook Air, it appears the same as the one I'm returning.... Is there anyway that i can re-select the option to Inherit backup history for time machine?

    I have a monthly subscription for PS and Lightroom.
    When I opened Lightroom this morning, it told me an upgrade was available through CC. I probably did something wrong, butI couldn't get it to download.
    I came on the forum and read a couple of discussions on your pages and found a reply that posted links to the pages where Lightroom 5.7 could be downloaded.
    I clicked the link and downloaded the update fine.
    However, now when Lightroom opens, it is asking whether I want to BUY or have a free 30 day trial and won't progress any further into the app.
    My CC icon reveals that my software is up to date but I can't get past this register screen, without selecting BUY or FREE 30 TRIAL .
    can anyone help please?

  • I have an ipod 2nd gen that was synced to a computer that i no longer have access to..now when i plug it in to my current computer itunes wants to delete all my songs!!!!!

    I have a ipod 2nd gen that was synced to a computer that i no longer have access to...now when i plug it in to my new computer it shows the ipod but wants to erase all my music on the ipod in order to use itunes!!!

    I think that's the way it's supposed to work. When you connect to a computer that has iTunes, but is different from the computer you are normally synced to, you are asked if you want to sync to the current computer. If you say yes, it will replace the content of your iPod with what is designated to sync in the iTunes. If you say no, it will leave your content alone, but you won't be able to load any new songs, but you can still use it in disk mode as a storage device.
    The exception is that you can transfer your iTunes store purchases to the new computer from the iPod, but I haven't done that myself. I'm not sure, but I don't think you can transfer non-store tracks, like those you burn from your own CDs. You have to copy those manually and then sync them onto the iPod.
    Anyway, that's how it works with a 6th gen and the latest iTunes. Not sure if there is a limitation with 2nd gen.

    Hi, Shadiamond Murray.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Sometimes a simple power cycle of the router can correct the issue that you are experiencing.  However, the issue could be a little more complex.  Wi-Fi routers need adjustments to settings periodically for optimized performance with the constant progression of wireless device technology.  Below, I have included two articles.  The first article will cover basic Wi-Fi troubleshooting regarding iOS device connection.  The second article cover the recommended settings for current Wi-Fi access points.
