Edit in PS CS4 problem

When I try to edit a photo from LR 2.0 in PS CS4 PS starts up but nothing further happens. This is the case in all cases except when I choose "edit original". Then everything works fine. Help!!
thnx,
Saam

Thanks, Ian, for the prompt reply!
It's a bit of a standard solution fot most of the profile-corrections I read. Nothing wrong with it.
Only, bringing it to PS following the second route I'll have to "save with adjustments" and will reset all my sliders to 0 (not to mention the mask and brush adjustments!!). Having various import develop-presets applied, it's a pretty darn thing to resume editng from there on. Starting with applying the second route in my workflow will also destroy a lot of presets as well (and imagine having all RAW files as PSD too!!).
Using the Lens profile creator, could I temper with the adobe-profiles to let them work with the PSD's as well, or, could I make my own 12-24 profile and get it applied ond PSDs?
Thanks,
Alex.

CS4 PROBLEM EDITING DV FOOTAGE!

I have just built a new system thinking it would be the one to get hd/sd editing done with no problem. When I export the footage into the project dv widescreen at 29.97 fp everything works fine. Once i put the footage on the time line and play the footage on the screens it goes from sharp to blurry/pixelated. If i scroll the mouse through the footage looks fine. I was not able to test out hd footage yet. I need to be able to work on sd as well. So if someone could help or at least guide me to what others have done with their systems would be appreciated!!!

Edit in Photoshop CS4... does not open the selected file.

Sorry if this is an old topic, but I can not seem to find the answer and I was hoping someone here might know.
When in Lightroom (2.2 or 2.3) if I select "Edit in Photoshop CS4..." or any of those dropdown commands, Photoshop opens....and that is it. The selected photo from Lightroom is NOT opened/merged/panoramaized. duuh. frustrating.
So I re-installed Lightroom, updated to the 2.3, re-installed CS4. all with the same effect that Photoshop opens, but the selected file is NOT opened.
Has anyone experienced this? Any solutions?
Thanks in advance.

When you remove the obvious,
that which is left must therefore be the truth -- Sherlock Holmes
Short version:
When I created a new lightroom catalog, and imported a single, standalone file, It worked fine. But when I imported to the new catalog, any photos from my existing catalog, it would fail.
Turns out that I was doing something a bit out of the ordinary with the IPTC Copyright field. In order to make my copyright information look "different" when I would export a file.
One would normally put in that field something like "© 2009 someone". I discovered a few months ago that I could make this field display as a multi line entry.
ie.
if you wanted to put XY into the copyright field, but wanted it to display as:
X
Y
all you would have to do is to put a carrage return between the two characters. (hint ctl^enter). Now when you displayed the "copyright" in an output file, it will display
vertically instead of all the characters in a horizontal line.
After being frustrated by this for a couple of weeks, I simply started removing every option that I might have applied to photographs that I would import with Lightroom. One of the last ones was the "vertical" information I put in the copyright field in a Preset. (when you remove the obvious...).
Funny thing is that no program really cares about the formatting of that field, or if it has multiple lines in the data, or special characters.......It even opens up just fine in Photoshop / Gimp / PSE / etc. with no problems.
But, if you have multiple lines of data in the Copyright Field (and I suspect others as well),
AND you want to open up the file from Lightroom in Photoshop, using the standard menu item of " Edit with Photoshop CS4", for some reason Photoshop will start, but never open the designated file. I would expect some parsing something just giving up after it encounters a CR.
But.....All is well that ends well. Now I can quit obsessing, and move on to something else...
Best,
Jim

LR2.2 to edit in Photoshop CS4 yield lighter images in PS

I notice a problem since upgrading to PS CS4 from PS CS3, that when I select Edit in PS CS4 from within LR 2.1, the image that opens in PS is noticeably lighter by about one stop. I get the same result if I edit as smart object or as a TIF. If I make no changes within PS but just save the TIF file and then go back to LR, the new TIF saved from within PS and the original CR2 (or DNG) file appear to be at the same exposure when viewed inside LR2.1. I was hoping that upgrading to LR2.2 would fix the problem, but it has not. It is exactly the same.
I've checked all of my LR and PS settings and preferences and there is not additional processing that is being done when I edit in PS. It's really strange.
My monitor, an Eizo ColorEdge CE240W, is properly calibrated. I'm running a MacPro 8 core with Leopard 10.5.6.
I have exactly the same software and settings installed on my MacBookPro 15" but I do not have the problem there.
I tried uninstalling PS-CS4, deleting PS and LR preferences and reinstalling PS-CS4 to no avail. I did not have this problem with previous versions of LR and PS.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Lightroom 3's "edit in photoshop CS4" does not preserve "detail" values

Hi all,
I am giving lightroom 3 a try (finally...), but noticed that when I have an image to which I have applied "detail" adjustments to reduce luminescence and color noise, using "edit in Photoshop CS4" opens the image without the detail adjustments applied. I don't see the option to pick whether to edit "the image" or "the image with lightroom settings" anywhere, and I'm scratching my head trying to find an option in the preferences (both LR and Catalog prefs) that lets me pick "edit with lightroom settings applied".
It's a bit useless this way =/
Does anyone know how to make "edit in ..." for lightroom 3 always apply the image corrections to the edit copy?

I had been looking for that option, turns out the only way to get it back was to reset all warning dialogs. After telling LR to render with lightroom, things look great again.
Thanks!

Tracking Edit Original in CS4

Hi All,
How can we know if an image has been edited with 'Edit Original' option in CS4.
In previous Indesign versions (before CS4), the UIDRef of the link used to change if the image is saved after editing. In CS4 it doesn't change.
In previous version I was trapping the ActionID for Edit Original and checking the UIDRefs to see if the image is saved after editing.
Is there any method for this in CS4. Or some link attribute that can be checked to know if the image is saved or not after editing.
Regards,
Jasmine

I am developing a plugin for adobe InDesign CS4.
From my plugin, when I select a link and right click on it, I am getting "Edit Original" and "Edit with" options.
But the "Edit with" option doesn't list the applications.
I am able to edit the link using "Edit Original".
The code I mentioned is not able to get the list of applications in the appList array.
currently I am doing the below in LinkResource Handler::CanEditResource().
AppInfoList appList;
UIDRef LinkSelectedInLayout = Utils<ILinksUIUtils>()->GetSingleLinkUIDRefSelectedInLayout();
if(LinkSelectedInLayout.GetUID() != kInvalidUID)
InterfacePtr<ILink> SelectedLink(LinkSelectedInLayout,UseDefaultIID());
if(SelectedLink)
//UIDRef linkResourceRef(::GetDataBase(SelectedLink),SelectedLink->GetResource ());
Utils<ILinksUIUtils>()->GetEditOriginalEditorList(appList,SelectedLink );
//Utils<ILinkUtils>()->GetEditorList(linkResourceRef,appList,kFalse);
Any Guide will be a great help
Thanks

After I use the Develop module in LR4 I edit in PS-CS4, now the develop changes do not show in CS4.

You need to send the file over to CS4 as a PSD (with Lightroom Adjustments checked)
CS4 cannot interpret the newer processing version used by Lightroom 4

Version Set is not created when editing with Photoshop CS4?

Last week I was working in PSE7 and opening files into PS CS4 for editing. I open the files by clicking the Open with link and choose Photoshop. I edited several dozen photos and when I closed them from PS CS4 Version Sets were created in PSE7 like they should be. At some point that stopped happening. Now when I do as before and open the files into PS CS4, edit them, and then close them the Version Set is not being created in PSE7. I look in the folder containing the files and the file has a new modified date but it still has the same file name instead of being saved with the - edited name as before. Does anyone know why the version sets are no longer being created when editing with PS CS4? I can edit the files with the PSE7 editor and the version sets are created as they should be. Thanks!

Okay so tha there is no misunderstanding here is exactly what I'm doing. From the PSE7 Organizer I select a photo (file name Tetons & Jenny Lake 026.jpg) and click the Fix tab. I then click More Options and select Photoshop. The photo opens in into PS CS4. I make my edits click the x on the tab to close the image and I'm asked "Save changes to the Adobe Photoshop document "Tetons & Jenny Lake 026_edited-1.jpg" before closing?" I click Yes then click OK to save the image at maximum quality. I go back to the PSE 7 Organizer and there is no version set. I check the folder the original image was in and see the original file Tetons & Jenny Lake 026.jpg with a new modified date and time. I can even choose Save As from PS CS4 and it asks me if I want to overwrite Tetons & Jenny Lake 026_edited-1.jpg and I select Yes, but I get the exact same results. Thanks!

Hello MacHeads: I downloaded Handbrake 0.9.1 for Tiger, so I can upload a homemade DVD for editing in imovie. Problem is I can't even access Handbrake Help book, because I think my firewall settings are preventing me. I tried turning off all my firewall

Hello MacHeads: I downloaded Handbrake 0.9.1 for Tiger, so I can upload a homemade DVD for editing in imovie. Problem is I can't even access Handbrake Help book, because I think my firewall settings are preventing me. I tried turning off all my firewall settings.? IDK if I'm even doing that right. Can anyone help out here?

You don't need Handbrake for that if it is your own DVD.
You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle.
a DVD is in a compresed format called mpeg2, which is standard across all DVDs. This is what is known as a 'final delivery format' and is not suitable for editing. Because is is compressed, a 4.7GB DVD can hold a two hour movie (dual layer DVDs twice that), whereas the DV stream from a video camera, which runs at about 13GB per hour, is not compressed and IS intended for editing.
In other words you have to 'reverse engineer' the DVD back to an uncompressed format in ordfer to edit it. There is a penalty for doing this in terms of slight quality loss, but it is one you can live with.
When you have your DVD as an icon on your desktop, double-click it, and it will open to reveal a TS-Folder containing a number of various files, some called VOB. These are the constituent parts of any video DVD.
When you have downloaded and installed mpegStreamclip, and purchased and installed the Apple mpeg2 plugin, open mpegStreamclip and drag the entire TS Folder into its window. Then using the various menus available to you (just explore them and you will get the hang of it) ask it to convert to DV.
That DV file, which will be many times larger than the original TS Folder, and which can a while to create (be patient - make coffee or prune the roses!) is what you can now import into iMovie for editing etc.
When you have finished doing that, you then have to turn the project back into a DVD.
mpegStreamclip can be downloaded from here:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/mpegstreamclip.html
which is free, but you must also have the Apple mpeg2 plugin :
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
which is a mere $20.
Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
which costs $25.
For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.

CS4 Problems on new iMac

1. I installed CS4 on my new iMac running Mavericks. I ran the updater but the updater can't update itself ("couldn't access disc image") so now I can't update any of the CS4 components. Help!
2. My RAW files (imported from my previous Mac using Time Machine) all appear as unconverted DNG files. I'd like to avoid spending hours converting them all again. Is this a CS4 problem or maybe a Mac problem? Should I restore my photo library from Time Machine again, now that I've installed CS4? Any ideas on solving these problems would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

CS4 is unsupported under Mavericks. Someone who has successfully done this
may be able to help, but unfortunately you're pretty much on your own here.

Encore CS4 - Problem creating DVD folder

I have been trying to create a DVD in Encore CS4 and have discovered that if I select the option to create a DVD folder on my hard disk, the resultant VOB files are corrupted in some way (although their sizes and names seem to be correct). However, if I instead burn a disk directly from the transcoded sequence, the result is often fine. Has anybody else encountered this strange issue?
I'm using a quad core (Q660 2.4GHz) PC with 4GB of ram and plenty of spare hard disk space, running the 64 bit version of Vista home premium (SP1 applied). The footage (edited in Premiere CS4) is 1080 25p from an XDCAM PMW-EX1, transcoded to 720x576 (i.e. PAL).

In reply to the two responses so far posted (and thanks for these, by the way):
1. I have not tried creating an ISO image instead. To be honest, I am more interested in knowing why the DVD folder creation fails.
2. I check the VOB files by attempting to play them in a software DVD player (Power DVD). The corrupted ones result in a blank (black) screen and no audio. The ones successfully burnt straight to a DVD will play fine when the folder structure is copied onto my hard drive.

CS4 problem when importing older CS3 Project, mismatched edits

I am trying to import a CS3 project into CS4 and for some reason some of the edits don't match up. It's only in some parts, most of it is fine. I really want to be able to use the new Media Encoder so I can make a DVD from the CS3 project (I was unable to do this in CS3 + older Media Encoder because it would always crash on my long length project).
I also tried bypassing Premiere CS4 by using the Media Encoder CS4 standalone project import option and selected the CS3 project and then the sequences....I scrubbed through the player and the same edits are mismatched/incorrect.
If I go back to the project in the older CS3, all edits are fine...but of course I can't export a MPEG for DVD because CS3's exports crash.
What is the deal?
If it matters, I am using 720p P2 footage.

Well I'm interested in this thread because I'm having a similar problem importing CS2 projects - audio filters are screwy, especially EQ.
I can't finish this project in CS2 for several reasons.
I can't seem to convert every project CS2 project -- some work, some do not. Missing preview files, probably. I know that CS4 conversions hanging are a separate documented issue.
So I'm trying to import projects instead. Everything looks all right but everything does not SOUND all right.

Edit in CS4 Problem.

For some reason when I right click on a an image in LR and go to edit in photoshop I don't get any options anymore like I used to .It opens in CS4 as a raw file and not a tiff. I haven't changed anything. Does anyone know why?
It's a problem because now when I want to brush in some adjustments via Nik's vivenza etc. plug-ins-I can't-just like if I open it as a smart object from LR.
Thanks.

That has been the case ever since LR 2.0. You will only get the dialog when you open a non-RAW file. When you edit a RAW file, it will always open it directly. It will use it's own ACR to render into a 16-bits prophoto standard tiff file (the default, change it in LR preferences). The title is just a temporary tag until you save the file in Photoshop, which is when it will change automatically into .tif. In the contextual menu in Lightroom you should also be able to choose whether you want a smart object or a normal file to be opened. If your plugins don't work, it probably has nothing to do with Lightroom. Do these plugins not support 16-bit files?

Problem with "Edit With" in CS4

what is the best place to call GetEditOriginalEditorList or GetEditorList to get a list of application that can open a placed file in the Links Panel.
when I place a asset for my InDesign CS4 plugin and rightclick on the placed file I don't find the application list.
Can anyone guide me on this?
Thanks

Seems to be fixed now. I reinstalled LR and CS4, with the difference being that I downloaded LR from the Adobe site. Maybe there's a corrupt file on the disc copy that I have??
