Facebook Settings in Lightroom Publishing Manager

I have Lightroom 4 and I am able to upload photos to facebook via the Lightroom Publishing Manager, but only to my Wall Photos. In the Publishing Manager settings under the "Facebook Album" drop down menu, I only have "Wall Photos" as an option, but that drop down menu is greyed out, so I'm not given an option to pick any other albums.
I am abl to right click on my Facebook service and "Create a Collection", but I'd like to know if I can create another default setting in the Publishing Manager.
Any help?

Try the 4.4RC - there are some Facebook related fixes http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/lightroom4-4/

Can't set up Lightroom Publish Services, internal error occurs

I'm trying to use LR 3's publish service for SmugMug. I'm a little scared since
I have a large number of photos to sync up.
When I click on "setup" on the SmugMug export services, I get a popup
error with this message:
"An internal error has occurred: ?:0: attempt to index field 'exportSettings' (a
nil value)"
Any idea how to fix this?
The same message appears for any of the publish services (Flickr, Facebook).
If I go the Publish manager, I can authorize the SmugMug account. It then says it syncs the hierarchy, but afterwards nothing seems to have happened and the account is not longer authorized.
Thanks.

Thanks Mark, but that's not it.
I'm not using Jeff's plugin, but the new built-in one for LR 3.2 and LR3.3. I did try to install Jeff's plugin just before LR3.2 came out. I uninstalled Jeff's version (or at least tried to - it doesn't appear anymore) before I ever used it.
I'm not even to the point of exporting to SmugMug, I just click 'setup' and get the error.

Ptinter Settings? Lightroom prints are TERRIBLE

Hi!
I would greatly appreciate some suggestions on what I can do to resolve this problem.
I am trying out Lightroom because I am really interested in its features. However, one of the things I am running into problems with is with printing pictures. They all come out washed out, dark. I've tried several of the settings in Lightroom as well as in my printer driver (Canon MP760) and nothing seems to work. (And I've wasted a lot of ink and photo paper!)
On the other hand, other picture tools like Google's Picasa do a superb job with the printouts... and I did not have to fiddle with the printer settings at all.
I am telling Lightroom to let the printer manage color (the default setting) and in the printer driver I am using the exact same settings that I use with Picasa. It seems that Lightroom is messing around with the pictures before passing them along to the printer.
Thanks!

Same problem for me with a Canon Pixma IP5000 printer and Lightroom-- and for me, it wasn't just Lightroom prints-- I had the same issue as you if I used website photo printing firms-- but I was able to resolve it and get a reasonably good match of Lightroom print to monitor view. (Don't expect perfection here with the average consumer-level monitor. You'll make yourself crazy. But you can come pretty darn close.) Here's how I did it:
First, explicitly Remove any existing color calibration settings other than the one for your monitor in Windows. You may think you don't have one, but check. I'd forgotten until I checked that I had installed one for use with Paint Shop Pro photo software; it was messing me up. You remove color calibration profiles by right-clicking a blank area of your desktop, choosing Properties>Advanced>Color Management, highlighting any color profile other than the one for your monitor, and Removing it.
Then get and use a Color Vision Spyder 2 express monitor calibrator. I thought, Ah, that's silly, I can calibrate my monitor close enough for jazz using website calibration screens, but these gadgets do much better than I could at free websites and are well worth the money considering what Lightroom and other photo software AND throwaway prints cost. These calibrators are priced well under $100 shipped at websites such as amazon or newegg. I have a Sony SDM-HS95P LCD monitor, and I can't just go with the Spyder2 calibrator settings... I have to make an additional minor adjustment on my monitor of Brightness from the Sony default 50 to 10, and from Color Temperature to User Adjust>Red>101 instead of default 128, after calibrating. YMMV, of course, depending on your monitor, but the point is, you may still need to experiment and adjust a tad after calibrating to find a good match of monitor to print. Still, using a monitor calibration device helped me A LOT and I highly recommend biting the bullet and trying one, given your issue. Of course, you want to use Spyder2's color management profile as your default, that loads at bootup.
OK, on to Lightroom settings for your printer. Remember, I have a different Canon printer than you have, so again, YMMV, and you may need to make some adjustments here to what works for me, but it should still give you a good lead on how to proceed with your Canon printer. Canon printers do seem to need some custom settings compared to other brands for success in printing within Lightroom. What follows is copied from notes I keep in a .doc file on my PC for making 4x6 prints with Canon Photo Paper Plus Glossy in Lightroom.
To enable borderless printing of 4x6 images, first click Page Setup on the Printer module of Lightroom to enter printer settings, and then Properties>Page Setup and check Borderless Printing. If you don't do this first before trying to set up Lightroom, Lightroom won't let you set Margins to 0.00 or do borderless printing.
Set Lightroom: Print>Print Resolution 240 dpi for 4x6, Print Sharpening>High, Color Management Profile NOT Managed by Printer, but by Canon iP5000 SP2 (SP is for Photo Paper Plus and 2 is for Quality Fine {setbelow-- to 2, to match this setting here}; if you click Other and select MP instead, that's for Matte Paper, and if you select one of the PRs, that's for Photo Paper Pro). These profiles, incidentally, get installed by the Canon Printer Driver. Rendering Intent in Lightroom should be set to Relative, not Perceptual; Relative is a better color and gamma match to monitor.
Press in Lightroom: Page Setup, Print Settings, or Print (it doesn't matter) to set Canon printer Setup as follows: Size 4x6, orientation Portrait (even for a landscape image), Source to Paper Feed Switch. Click Properties and set Main>Media Type>Photo Paper Glossy, Print Quality>Custom>Set>Quality>High>2 (this number matches the number corresponding to the paper profile you selected in Lightroom's Color Management Profile) and turn on Diffusion. OK. Color Adjustment>Manual>Intensity 17 (makes prints slightly darker to match what you see on monitor. For some prints, you have to adjust the Color Balance numbers. These changes are best made from Page Setup in Lightroom, not Print>Properties; doing it the latter way, changes often don't take, i.e., the program seems to save the changes but goes ahead and prints it unchanged(!) and restores the previous settings as if you hadn't changed them(!!). Contrary to what you might expect, do NOT turn on ICM in Manual. ICM here definitely messes things up on my Canon printer. Page Setup tab: check Borderless Printing. Move the Amount of Extension slider to second position from far left (despite Canon's recommendation; otherwise, it cuts off too much of the image-- as it is, second position from far left cuts a small amount, but far left position leaves a tiny white border in prints). Effects tab: uncheck everything, including Vivid.
More info I drew on to connect all this together is found in
http://www.steves-digicams.com/techcorner/June_2005.html
Info on Canon's paper profiles and matching monitor to printer on Canon's website, unfortunately, was unclear and inadequate for me, anyway, and judging by Adobe forums, for others as well.
Now back in Lightroom's Printer Module... On right, under Image Settings, check options: Auto Rotate to Fit, and Repeat One Photo Per Page (assuming you're printing images and not contact sheets.) (Be careful about Zoom to Fill Frame-- it cuts off a small part of the sides.) Set Margins to 0.00 and Cell size to 6.00 and 4.00; if you can't hit these settings, go back to Page Setup and recheck Borderless Printing. Scroll down on the right and set Print Job/Print Resolution to 320 dpi...
Press the key on the Pixma to pull photo paper from the top and insert photo paper glossy side up the long way.
The first time I tried printing, it wanted to print every print in the filmstrip. Look in the bottom left to see how many photos it thinks are selected. If it's all, and you want just the one image selected, don't proceed, or it will print the first image in the filmstrip. One workaround, I found, is to put the photo(s) I want printed in Quick Collection, and then I can print one, or a few.
Once you click Print, it will take awhile to set up before printing actually starts. Look in the upper left of Lightroom you can monitor the printing prep process (remember, it's converting RAW files to printable format, often, so this can be slow).

Using Lightroom publish service for either Flickr or SmugMug. I have many images with a keyword Madd

Using Lightroom publish service for either Flickr or SmugMug. I have many images with a keyword Maddy. This frequently doesn't show up in SmugMug or Flickr. All my other keywords seem to work fine. Anybody experience anything like this?

You only get one opportunity to set up the hard drive under publish and the folder cannot be changed unless you get a plug-in to provide a work around.
However you could just create a generic publish folder - something like Photo Lab, or Print Job.
But you could then right click on your publish folder and select “make target collection” - you will see the plus sign added.
Simply highlight the photos you want to print and press B (the same as adding to a quick collection) and your Publish Services folder on your hard drive will be populated with the exports.
The real problem is that you would need to edit the publish settings every time you required different dimensions etc (not sure possible). I use a similar system, which works well and I like how I can see what has already been published and what is still to be published but my prints are always the same size and resolution.

Apps not showing in iphone 5 facebook settings

I recently did an upgrade on a free game app I have used for months without any problems. This particular game can also be played on Facebook. After the upgrade the game no longer shows in my phone's Settings even though I can access the game through the shortcut icon on my phone. The app also does not show in Facebook Settings>Allow these apps to use your account.
I have done everything I can think of to get it to work but cannot understand where the app may be 'hiding'

There are other people reporting this same issue, so I'm inclined to believe it's on Facebook's end.

SCVMM Virtual Switch Provisioning ignores "Inherit settings from the physical management adapter" setting

When provisioning a new Hyper-V hosting into SCVMM I have a situation occur that causes loss of management to the server, which really should not be happening. When I add a new host, I set the 'Virtual Switch' adding a new 'Logical Switch' as well as a 'Virtual
Network Adapter' for the management OS traffic.
The first NIC in the team is active and configured with correct static IP information, which is allowing VMM access to the server to perform these steps. The 'Virtual Network Adapter' has a checkbox in the 'This virtual network adapter inherits settings
from the physical management adapter.' option box.
From my understanding what should happen is when the virtual adapter is created on the host the IP information should move to the virtual adapter from the physical adapter that is now part of the NIC Team. What is actually happening is the NIC Team seems
to create OK, but it picks up a DHCP IP address instead of assuming the first physical NIC's IP information. I tried this with only one NIC as well as both NICs in the team to see what happens. Either case the same problem presents.
To get around this, what I did was sit on the console after I started the provisioning process. As soon as I saw Teamed NIC create I applied the static IP address via PowerShell manually to that Teamed NIC virtual adapter and then VMM just continued along
normally. It then moving the IP from the NIC Team adapter to the Hyper-V virtual adapter properly. I did get a warning back from the creation (below) which hints me to the problem.
The Error code details as 2147942465 which is a "Network Access Denied" code followed by "Error while applying physical adapter network settings to teamed adapter". So, this is telling me there was a permission issue of some sort during
the step of adding the original physical NIC IP settings to the virtual NIC.
The VMM Run As user 'HVAdmin' is a Local Administrator on the Hyper-V host, this has been verified. It has also been temporarily granted Administrator access on the domain to see if it helps. No go.
Searching around the net has now revealed this problem so far, has anyone else seen this? It makes provisioning a bit of a chore because I have to be at the Hyper-V console and on VMM at the exact same time to add a new host.

It's a workaround but this works best.
When initially configuring the host use a dedicated Nic.
Configure the new team with a management Vnic and assign the Vnic an IP.
Now disable the dedicated nic and you can start working the the team and the Vnic.

Lightroom Publish Services to Creative cloud

Why can´t I publish pictures from Lightroom to Creative Cloud with LR Publish Services???? The only reason I bought a Creative Cloud membership was because I assumed it would work seamlessly with Lightroom publish Services.....Anyone with a soloution here?

There is no current integration with the CC Files, and they don't usually announce their roadmap in advance. I do agree it could be useful though.

Can't get Lightroom Color Management to select custom profiles

I can't get Lightroom Color Management to select custom profiles.
- I select "other" in Profile,
- a pop-up box shows me numerous profiles to choose from
- I select a profile and the selection is highlighted
- I press "OK" and the pop-up box disappears
- but if I go back to the "Profile" selection line, only "Managed by Printer" is available.
What's wrong here?
Is the inability to select a profile the reason that prints from Lightroom look way to dark when I print them?
Vick

Oh, I'm on Windows, XP with SP2.
The profiles are in C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\color
I used the .exe that was provided by Epson for installing the drivers.
Nothing fancy, nothing different.
For Lightroom, I installed it off CD, and got the 1.3.1 update off their Adobe site.
Any clues there, to solve the puzzle?

Logic of Lightroom Color Management

There are, I know, endless posts about Lightroom color management issues. This question, I hope, will be somewhat different, as I don't have a specific problem, yet, but am trying to understand the logic of the software in the hope of avoiding problems down the road (as when I add file types, e.g.) I am also reading a book on color management, but it is on general theory with specific references to Photoshop CS3 (or 2), not to Lightroom. So here are my two questions and I'm hoping that the answers, should I be fortunate enough to receive any, will help not only me but other neophytes.
First, the Adobe online manual says this: "For rendered files such as TIFF, JPEG, and PSD files, Lightroom uses the images embedded color profile to display the image, histogram, and color values. If the image doesnt have a profile, Lightroom assumes the sRGB profile, and the image may not look as expected on your monitor." Clear enough, but what does CS3 do when it is launched from Lightroom to do pixel editing on an image primarily managed in Lightroom? That is, if CS3 is used essentially as a Lightroom plugin does CS3 adopt the Lightroom color management or does CS3 independently have to be set appropriately for the image to appear the same in CS3?
Second, the online manual says this: "Raw photo files generally dont have embedded color profiles. For raw files, the Develop module assumes a wide color space based on the color values of the ProPhoto RGB color space. ProPhoto RGB encompasses most colors that cameras can record." This is confusing, at least to me. Consider the paragraph above in this post, where the manual explains (or at least intimates) that if you create a file with values of a broad gamut such as Adobe RGB but don't embed that profile Lightroom will think it has a narrower gamut, sRGB file and the display will be off (unsaturated and washed out, I presume). That makes perfect sense. But why, then, does Lightroom assume for RAW files the wide Prophoto RGB color space when a camera might not record across this gamut? Wouldn't a camera that records in a narrower gamut cause the same problems for the display as does an Adobe RGB file read as if it were an sRGB file?
Thanks in advance.

>For rendered files such as TIFF, JPEG, and PSD files, Lightroom uses the images embedded color profile to display the image, histogram, and color values. If the image doesnt have a profile, Lightroom assumes the sRGB profile, and the image may not look as expected on your monitor.
Funny but if this came from the manual it is actually incorrect. For tiff, jpeg and psd files, the image is rendered into the linear lightroom color space using the embedded profile or assuming sRGB if there is no color tag on the image. The histogram Lightroom shows is always based on the Lightroom color space with a gamma 2.2 toning curve applied no matter what the source of the file. To answer your question, if you do an "edit in CS3" from Lightroom a copy of the file is rendered in the color space that you requested in the dialog and CS3 uses that space if your Photoshop is correctly set up to respect embedded profiles.
>Raw photo files generally dont have embedded color profiles. For raw files, the Develop module assumes a wide color space based on the color values of the ProPhoto RGB color space. ProPhoto RGB encompasses most colors that cameras can record.
The manual is again not correct here! Embarrassing. I have never seen a RAW file with an embedded profile so generally is incorrect. Also, for RAW files, the module DOES NOT assume prophotoRGB color space. The actual primaries are actually stored in a internal database that is based on calibrations that Thomas Knoll and other ACR engineers did of the specific type of camera. They ARE not the prophotoRGB primaries. The RAW files are rendered into MelissaRGB using those primaries. MelissaRGB has ppRGB primaries but a linear gamma instead of 1.8.
>hat makes perfect sense. But why, then, does Lightroom assume for RAW files the wide Prophoto RGB color space when a camera might not record across this gamut? Wouldn't a camera that records in a narrower gamut cause the same problems for the display as does an Adobe RGB file read as if it were an sRGB file?
See above, the manual is wrong. Lightroom knows the actual gamut of your camera and uses that, not prophoto.

Lightroom image management - ready for professionals?

Hi
I have a client, which is doing professional gardening photography for various magazines in this topic. Her business ranges from magazine reports about individual gardens to delivering single images to different publishers as requested (for example by flower type, color etc.). The main thing is that her image portfolio isn't organized so much in individual shoots or contracts. An image can be sent to many publishers at any time. She needs to kepp track of this. She needs to know, which image has been published when and where.
Before moving to digital recently, she kept track of here jobs with cumulus, which had more database capabilities, but much less possibilities in image adjustment. Shooting only raw with a Canon 1 series camera, she choosed Lightroom as here image editing and managing tool. Beeing pleased with the friendliness of the user interface and many of its image editing and managing capabilities, she (actually we) are astonished, that even in a version 2 it is still not really possible to keep track of what happens to the images in a professional environment (despite the claim of Adobe that the product is made for professionals).
In essence the program isn't really capable of managing image data, which has a one to many relationship to the image (i.e. the instances of cases an image is sent to a customer). We experimented with virtual copies, which can carry individual metadata, collections (which cannot carry metadata) or storing the required data in the large description field. None of these possibilites were really satisfying. The most promising solution in using virtual copies, ended up in a maintenance nightmare, because it was too easy to forget, where to do which data management (at the master raw file or at the virtual copy).
Then, I learned that with Lightroom 2 there is a possibility to extend metadata, but, unfortunately with the usual limitation of not supporting one to many data (in the SDK-documentation called "spreadsheet type data"). The rest of the SDK documentation did not reveal any other helpful way of solving the problem as the SDK deals mainly with export plugin programming or web stuff, which is of no use to the client. It is rather disappointing that Lightroom's extensibility is still so limited. Where is the programming interface, that allows the development of complete new modules?
Given the slow pace, Lightroom development takes (I can expect that "breakthrough" extensions to the SDK will take even longer), I guess that my client can wait for another 3 or 5 years until anything close to true image management will come up.
So we have to look for some intermediate solutions. Whereas other software (expression media, idimager, cumulus) may have better database capabilities, they lack in raw editing completely and are often more awkward to use. Therefore, I would like to ask the community here, how they handle the tasks described above with Lightroom or with other tools? Perhaps we have overlooked a Lightroom capability?
One thing I thought of is to develop a special keyword hierarchy for contracts, but this also would not allow, all the images tracking needed.
Any ideas? I guess there aren't any plugins, which can deal with one to many data.
Kind regards
Thomas

Actually, we haven't ruled out keywords yet, in fact, at the moment it seems to be the only realistic possibility. However, I wonder if a growing keyword hierarchy can become unwieldy at the end, so I am sceptical, if this idea would deliver.
In general, I think that Lightroom should more move into the direction of beeing a platform for other vendors. The limitation to web stuff and export solutions isn't enough. I hope to see third party vendor modules, eventually one which provides more professional image management and tracking capabilites, exploring the fact that Lightroom has a database underneath it.
I would like to see a DxO raw conversion module or a lens correction module, fields where I think Lightroom and ACR are still not the best in its class (I think LightZone and DxO are the better raw processing engines).
Unfortunately, I do not see Lightroom going much into this direction. Probably this is already too late for the version 3 release, due in 2010 (?), so we need to wait until v4 (in 2012 ?) until the situation improves?
I believe many customers (especially professionals with precious time) need a fully integrated system, which can do image management and image adjustment at the same time. Lightroom is the right platform for it, if Adobe let it be.
Kind regards
Thomas
