Edit Photo with CS3

I have been using LR with PS/CS3 for a while but for some reason the behavior seems to have changed when pushing a file to PS. To maintain layers when working in PS I have to push the file to PS by choosing "Edit a Copy with Lightroom Adjustments", make the PS changes, and then Save. No problem there. The next time I push the file to PS from LR I have to choose the option "Edit a Copy" to access the file with the layers retained in PS. My question is then .... why can't I just always edit a file in PS by selecting "Edit a Copy" from LR in all cases. It's a pain with the volume I work on to first select "Edit a Copy with LR adjustments" then remember for that file to choose "Edit a Copy". Am I missing something?

Do you really need to create a new, additional, copy each and every time?
First time you need to select "Edit a Copy with Lightroom Adjustments" because that's all you can do when working on a RAW file. Next time you need to carry out further edits, simply select the TIFF and "Edit Original". That way you've always got just your Master RAW file and your Master (edited) copy.

New Photo in OS X option to edit photo with external editor such as Photoshop has been removed. will this be back!

Hi
I have just updated my iPhoto to Photos in OS X and i have noticed that the option to edit photo with external editor such as Photoshop has been removed. will this be back!
Its now a pain to send a photo directly to my favourite photo editing software.
Ross

Thanks Terence
Totally understand being a new app and not an update.
So i'm a ammeter photographer and i like the way i can view my photos in iPhoto and i'm happy with the new App for this also, however i like to edit my photos in PS from time to time and i shoot in raw. As i can no longer select edit in external editor from the photo app i tired to drag a RAW photo to PS but this didn't work. i then tried dragging to desktop but this then made a jpeg so i loose my raw advantage. I would like to be able to find my original raw photos easily so i can edit them in PS.
Hope that makes sense?

How do you edit photos with photoshop from the new Photos app? The edit in external editor menu item seems to be gone.

Tell Apple what additional features you want in Photos via both http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html and http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html since they don't have a feedback page for Photos as yet.

Edit Photo with Adobe CS3

I have RAW pictures ( NEF ) which are displayed in the Library of LightRoom . When I want to use the "Edit with Adobe CS3" fonction, I can only select "Edit a Copy With LightRoom Adjustment" . I can never select "Edit a Copy" or "Edit Original". Why ?? Am I doing something wrong.
PS: I use Lightroom 1.1 in English.
Regards

On this subject, one of my compaints about LR is that there is (as far as I can tell) no way to 1) open a batch of photos in PS to edit and 2) if you open a file in PS to edit LR creates a new file even if you don't want one (yet). I often just want to do a quick edit and convert for Web display. There is a way to create a special action/droplet in PS to have and use in the Export dialogue box, but this seem rather unelegant and is not useful for opening to edit, when in CS3 you just select files in Bridge and Open in Camera Raw/CS3.

I can't access edited photos with iphoto

I am new to iphoto 08.
I have preferences set up to edit iphoto images with photoshop CS3. After editing a photo, I use the option save in same folder but iPhoto does not show the edited photo, just the unedited photos. I can see the location of the new photo using spotlight (the path indicates that the photo is in the same folder as the unedited photos in iPhoto) but am unable to see the photo in iPhoto.
Any ideas? Thanks, David

David:
Maybe this will help:
Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 6 the Saving File preferences should be configured: "On First Save: Save Over Current File". Also I suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.
If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Huge size of edited photos with plugin

Hello,
I'm using Imagetrends Fisheye-hemi plug-in because I have 8mm camera lens. One photo usually have about 25MB and after editing with plugin about 50MB. I tried to change Aperture Export settings to 72dpi from 300dpi and .tiff to .psd but nothing happend. Is there some way to export photos into .jpeg or same size as original?
I mean that one reason will be export photos into .jpeg, import them into library back and then edit them. But it's annoying.
Thank you

Aperture creates a version in either .tif or .psd for use with plugins and external editors. Have you checked the size of the version created for this, before editing?
With the doubling of size, I am wondering if you have selected to use 16 bit vs 8 bit you have started out with in your Masters?

How can I fix iphoto 08 so it will edit photos with Snow Leopard?

Ever since I upgraded to SL, my iphoto 08 (ver 7.1.5) won't edit photos anymore. I just get the beach ball of death if I try to edit in full screen. I have sent two feedback msgs to Apple but have not received any sort of "fix." Where can I find this info? I have looked and read, and hoped....... HELP! Thanks so much!

Bak to the main Library:
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

How do i edit photos with out geting rid of the orginal

I try and edit photos, in Iphoto, but how do i edit a photowith out it geting rid of the orginal?

Hi Robbin,
When you edit in iPhoto, iPhoto saves the original in an originals folder and the edits are made on a copy. You can always revert back to the original by control clicking on the image and scrolling to "revert to original"
If you want to see both the original and the edited version in the library, duplicate the original and edit the duplicate image.

How do I share edited photos with other apple devices.

Photo Stream does a great job of sharing photos between your mac, your ipad, and your iphone UNTILL you want to edit them. How do I edit a photo and then be able to see the edited version on all my devices? If I edit on my Macbook, the changes are made in the iphoto library. If I edit on my phone the changes are in the camera roll. But the Photo Stream image remains unchanged yet it is the only version that can be seen by all devices. Very frustrating when you edited a bunch of photos for better viewing, but can only see those changes on the device you made the edits on. Also, trying to remembering which photos you edited on which device is impossible. Any ideas on how to keep ONE editable photo database accessible from all your devices?

If you edit a photo in iPhoto on your Mac and then use the Share button at the bottom and select iCloud ➙ MyPhotoStream
the edited version will be added to the MyPhotoStream on all devices. It has to be manually added. It's not automatic.
If that edit is removed in iPhoto, i.e. Revert to Original, the edited version in My Photo Stream remains.

Edited photos with 4 can be opened with 3?

Dear All,
I would to try the beta version of lightroom 4. Actually I have lightroom 3 installed with all my catalogs and I'm really interested in the new features that have been added.
If I edit some of my photos/catalogues with lightroom 4, and for some reason I cannot use it anymore, is it possible to open them again with version 3 or there is no compatibilty?
Thank you for your kind reply,
dk

dk,
The standard wisdom about using a Beta version is "Don't do anything that you'll need to keep."
No, changes you make won't be backward compatible. They will be compatible (most likely) with the official release of LR 4, however.
The purpose of the Beta isn't to produce useful work for you or for me, but to do us a different, but very handy goodness: shaking the bugs out of the program while risking nothing. We need those bugs to be found and fixed before we trust the program, and it's good that we can help find them.
Anyway, if you choose to work with the Beta, only use copies of your master files, not the files themselves.

Share an edited photo with PS Express?

I recently took a photo that had one element that needed a targeted color adjustment. I have Photoshop Mix, PS Express and Lightroom Mobile on my iPad so I thought great, I can select/isolate the object in Mix ( color adjustments there are limited to presets and none of them fit my needs), and then open the selection in Lightroom or Express and do the adjustments. The only format I could find to save the image in Mix that would preserve transparancy was the "save to photohop" option which saved a PSD to Creative Cloud. The only problem here is that I can find no way to then import this PSD from Creative Cloud to Express (I realized at this point Lightroom Mobile, with it's limited file support, was out). I also tried Revel and that doesn't work either ( that I could figure out). So really, am I to believe that with the 3 different ways of sharing files, Lightroom Mobile, Revel, and Creative Cloud, there is no way to move files from one Adobe Photoshop type app to another on an iPad?!?!? Please tell me I wrong.

I resolbed the acces to the admin page. On X.6.2 and less, Icould acce the CUPS interface with my IP address recived from my router ex: 192.168.0.100.
On x.6.3 I need to use localhost to acces the admin page.
I've always used localhost (127.0.0.1) to access the CUPS page. Using the assigned IP has always been an issue Tiger, Leopard and now Snow.
The terminal did accept the command but no printing using lpd lpr.
I finally used IPP pri ting with succes.
Lpd was the only way I could use my inkjet printer on OS 9 and less.
If anyone has a way to reenable it on X.6.3 that would be welcome.
Good to read that you got it working with IPP.
I'm not sure that anything additional needs to be re-enabled for LPD/LPR to work. For a standard install of 10.6.3, after adding LPD to the "Browse Local Protocols" command via Terminal, I was able to print to my shared Canon MP980 inkjet from XP SP3.
Maybe someone else can offer some insight...

Edit Photos with Photos App iOS 5.0.1

Hi,
I modified some pictures with the integrated iOS 5.0.1 Photos App with my iPad 2 and saved the changes.
If I show the picture on the iPad 2 I see the changes, but if I send it per Email or copy the file to my computer (with Sync-Cable) I have only the original version of the picture and not the modified version.
How can I get the modified picture?
Many thanks

No idea?

How to keep edited photos with original date

After installing Adobe Photoshop Elements 11, I imported all my photos from my files on my computer. Many of the photos were upsidedown and needed to be rotated. When I rotated them, they were moved to the current date (when edited). How can I keep them in their original sequence (date)?

Good day!
