Elements 5.0 and Lightroom

How compactible is lightroom with elements 5.0

Howard.....
If you try and import an Elements Catalog it can produce quite a messy library. Keyword hierarchy and DateTime of image may not be honoured.
Other than that you can invoke Elements as your Editor from LR.

  • Converting from Elements to Photoshop and Lightroom on the Cloud

    Hi all,
    I have an existing Elements Organiser structure (9 I think). Is it possible to upgrade to the Cloud and not lose the Elements filing existing structure?
    My thinking is that the full version of Photoshop will take over as the "organiser" and then I can use Lightroom as my initial editor before taking the pictures into Photoshop for filing etc.
    Advice would be appreciated.
    Cheers
    Zaak

    You are allowed to have two activated installations, so if you prefer you can keep the original installation intact.  If you prefer not to then the minimum you need to do is deactivate it.

  • False colours in Photoshop Elements 5.0 and Lightroom (trial)

    Both these applications seem unable to display certain dark colours. Areas that appear a subtle dark brown or grey in other apps (Windows Picture and Fax viewer, Windows Photo Editor, Picasa) appear in Adobe as a restricted range of dark green, blue or black. This does not happen on my laptop with the same images. It's typically only a small area of each image
    Details: Windows XP with Service Pack 2
    Evesham PC with Athlon 64 X2 dual core CPU, 1GB RAM
    Graphic card: ATI RADEON X800 GT with 256 MB RAM
    Monitor: Sony SDM-HS95P using DVI-D interface

    And you don't have to qualify with (Trial) the Only difference is the Serial Number entry letting you use it linger.

    Because I listened to Adobe earlier today about whither uninstalling Elements would affect Photoshop and Lightroom on my computer, Lightroom no longer sees Photoshop in the EDIT IN Menu of Lightroom. I found an article on the help site saying to delete the filecom.adobe.Photoshop.plist, which I looked for, its not there so it can't be deleted. The next step is to uninstall Photoshop and reinstall. This isn't an option because of all the plug-ins and modifications of the work space. Does any one have a better solution?

  • I'm trying to understand the difference between Photoshop Elements and Lightroom software.

    Does one have things the other does not?

    Hi,
    Lightroom is to manage photos and produce derivative images without ever modifying an original file. Its processing functionality has a narrow feature-set covering the most common needs of professional photographers whereas Elements is a simpler yet powerful photo manipulation tool. Elements is designed to satisfy the needs of photo enthusiasts who like to manipulate images.
    You can also go through the thread to understand the basic difference between PSE and Lightroom.
    Check if this helps.
    Thanks,
    Swapnil

  • I replaced PC with MACbook, can I download my Elements and Lightroom or do I need to repurchase?

    I replaced my PC which is broken and no longer usable with a new Macbook Pro.  I would like to download my Elements and Lightroom in the Mac OS version.  Can I do this or do I need to repurchase.  I just bought the Elements in August 2014 and the Lightroom in 2013.
    Thanks so much
    Teresa

    you do not need to re-purchase.  both those are cross-platform products so you just download the mac installation files and use your mac serial numbers to install on your mac.

  • Different file count between Photo Elements 12 and Lightroom 5.

    To Whom it might concern:
    When I check properties the file count in Photo Elements 12 is different than that of Lightroom 5.
    In one case Photo Elements shows 743 files and 51 folders and lightroom shows 734 files.
    I counted each a every file and found Lightroom to have the correct count and Elements the same count
    but properties shows a count of 743.
    Please answer.

  • Elements 13 and Lightroom 4

    What, if any, problems should I expect with compatibility of Elements 13 and Lightroom 4? (I have not previously used Lightroom. And I plan to upgrade from Elements 10 to Elements 13.) I will be using Apple's Yosemite. Thanks very much.

    Thanks very much.
    My tentative plan has been to do as you suggest in the second section of your reply — to use the Lightroom Library Module and Develop Module and then use other editors when I need more features than in the Develop Module.
    My original post was prompted by concern that because Lightroom 4 is older than PSE13, there might be some problem in using PSE13 as an external editor in Lightroom 4.
    Respectfully and with thanks,

  • Elements 9 and Lightroom 4

    I am considering using Lightroom 4 in conjuction with my current elements 9. Some comment no problem -  fully compatible while others
    comment the way photos are loaded into elements 9 will not necessarily show all the edits made in lightroom 4. Also, if you use the 2012  system on your raw files they are not compatible with the ACR version in elements and the changes will look wrong. Is there value in these views.
    Do I keep with elements 9 and get lightroom 3 or get elements 10 and lightroom 4. Any advice would be appreciated

    I'm not sure about compatibility with Elements 9. But IF ACR isn't fully compatible with Lightroom 4 then you can have Lightroom render a TIF file that includes all of the Lightroom adjustments and then open that in Elements. It works seamlessly. Even if Lightroom and Elements 9 were fully compatible, once you make changes in Elements a TIF or PSD file has to be created anyway. So you can work with Lightroom 4 and be completely productive with it.

  • When is Adobe going to support 64bit, I7 CPU's in Elements and Lightroom?

    I have an I7, 64bit computer almost exclusively for multitasking photoshop exercises.  It appears that both elements and Lightroom only use one of the eight cores.  this is very inefficient for me.  Any clues as to when support for these high end computers will be forthcoming?

    Hmm, when I use File > Process Multiple Files to convert a dozen raw files to PSDs, resizing them as well, I see both CPUs on my machine being used:
    In general, I think that the full Photoshop does use multiple CPUs for compute-intensive tasks, and the PSE Editor, a stripped-down version of full Potoshop, also uses multiple CPUs.  How well it does that, I don't know.

  • I have Elements 11 (and Lightroom). I just bot a SONY   RX100-II camera.

    I tried to load the photos shot in RAW, but nada. I need to know how to get the program I need so that I can use Elements 11 and Lightroom with this camera, shooitng in RAW. Am leaving for Cuba in 5 days.
    [email protected]

    If you update to the latest lightroom 5.2, that should open the Sony RX100-II files.
    Unfortunatly pse11 can only use up to camera raw 7.4 and your files require camera raw 8.2
    Photoshop elements 12 is able to update to camera raw 8.2 though.

  • Will Elements and Lightroom open RAW files fro the Sony DSCRX-100 camera?

    Will elements and l;ightroom  open RAW files from the Sony DSCRX-100 camera ?

    I have the RX100 and confess to be an Adobe fan.   You did not say which Lightroom or which elements you want to use.  You need the latest versions.
    Photoshop Elements 11 comes with Adobe Camera RAW (ACR) version 7.0 in place when you install it.  Under the help menu, there is a choice to check for updates.  If you do, ACR 7.2 installs.  The RX100 is included in 7.2.  Previous versions of Photoshop Elements will not udate to 7.2.  When you open a RAW photo, a screen pops up that lets you adjust, convert and save to something Photoshop Elements can handle. 
    You have to have Lightroom 4.2 to get RX100 usefulness.  Lightroom uses, but hides, the ACR engine.  Instead the slider controls are built in the user interface.  When you buy it, it installs as 4.0.  The help menu also has an update choice so that you can get to 4.2 from 4.0.
    You didn't ask, but Premier Elements 11 is a good choice for video because it is he first version that "officially" supports the high quality 1080p60 or "PS" setting in the RX100. 
    On T day, I shot RAW photos of my granddaughters dancing to a Wii game in terrible light.  Yesterday I "adjusted" the batch of RAW shots taken with the RX100 in Lightroom and saved them as .jpg files.  Today, I wll make a video in Premier Elements from those .jpg images, put in some pan and zoom effects, add a sound track and put it on Vimeo. 
    My view is that an RX100 owner needs PSE 11, PrE 11 and Lightroom 4 to take advantage of the camera's capabilties.  Setting it on "fine" .jpg and uploading snapshots to Flicker leaves an awful lot on the table!

  • Does Photoshop CS5, Elements 8 and Lightroom 3 support Windows 7 64 bit Home Edition?

    Does Photoshop CS5, Elements 8 and Lightroom 3 support Windows 7 64 bit Home Edition?  Any issue installing these products on a new PC when I already have it installed on another PC?  I am getting a new PC to replace XP machine I already have.

    Yes, Photoshop runs on all editions of Windows 7 as far as I know.
    And the Photoshop EULA does give you the option to install and activate the software on a second machine.  Once you no longer need the XP system, assuming it's still functional, just deactivate the Adobe software on it and you'll be able to have the same flexibility again in the future.
    If ever you have a licensing agreement question, all the EULAs are online here:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/
    A side note:  Windows Home Premium may do all you need for now, but keep in mind there is a Windows Anytime Upgrade you can buy in the future that will allow you to move up to a higher edition of Windows 7 later if you should feel you need more features.
    This page has some information on that, and also describes the edition differences pretty thoroughly.  I especially like the nice table they've built:

    my photoshop elements and Lightroom serial numbers won't work for my new mac. I bought these softwares via download on my windows laptop but returned that laptop because the quality was not great. I decided to buy a mac and now can't use my serial numbers to download the software.

    Moving this discussion to the Downloading, Installing, Setting Up forum.
    Stephylei you will want to download the Mac versions of the installation files.  If you purchased the software from Adobe, and choose the download option at the time of purchase, then the download will be available under your account.  You can find more details at Find a download link on Adobe.com.

  • Elements and Lightroom installed in Mac Mini. Do I need to buy separate products for my MacBook?

    I have purchased Photoshop Elements and Lightroom and installed them in my table Mac. Now I'm going on travelling and would need them with me also in my laptop (MacBook Pro). Is there any chance to update my current purchases so that I could use the programs also in my laptop, or do I have to buy separate products for this? Could not find an easy way to do this. Thanks!

    I don't know about Lightroom, but PSE allows you to have activated installations on two computers, so you're good there. Just install it on the laptop.
