Help..two problems..photoshop cs5  buggy freezing, cannot import raw from lightroom..

I need help, the first problem is that photoshop cs 5 bugs up..no matter what I do ...repair permissions or repair disk, restart the computer..the program bugs..I cant open adjustment panels, or they freeze up, click on one and the window does not open need to change workspaces sometine to get to history or actions...the layers palette sometime wont move at all..I cant get direct support through adobe, I need someone to talk me through this problem, I have clients that need images retouched immediatly and I am moving at a turtles pace...no direct phone service with adobe, cant do live chat...damn it took me half an hour to just get here......
2nd problem, Light room, cant open up the raw images directly in photoshop, must convert them to tiffs first in plug in software through light room...every time I make an adjustment in the raw I have to open it up in  export it into anyother softwar than photoshop, that converts it to tiff then from light room I can open it up but if I wish to go back and do adjustments I have to clone it and start a whole other image...
I had purged the  cash in the preference panels in photoshop and that is when the problems with importing the raw directly from light room started... I am stuck, with two softwares that dont work seemlessly together at all for the moment, I cant work and my dead line is monday...I need help.....
sincerly,
Nancy

  • Lightroom 4 launches to Photoshop CS5 when I try to print from Lightroom. How do I change it

    Lightroom 4 launches to Photoshop CS5 when I try to print from Lightroom. How do I change it, so the printing goes directly from Lightroom to the printer.

    MartyOretsky wrote:
    Let me try again. I am in Lightroom and click print. Then I am launched to PS.
    This is not possible.
    What you are seeing is not PS, it's your printer dialog. PS does not have an ICM button.
    And you say: " Lightroom doesn't stop working; rather CS5 stops working"
    And what does the error message say that you posted in the screen shot?  Does it not say "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom has stopped working" ?
    Do not be confused. Adobe Photoshop Lightroom is the official name of Lightroom. This is not CS5 that has stopped working. CS5 does not come on when you hit the print button in Lr.
    It is Lr that has stopped working.
    And you say: "My next step is to click on ICM so the color controls are done by the software."
    This is wrong. When you want Lr to do the color management, you select a profile in the Print Module, in the <Print Job> panel under Color Management / Profile.
    In the screen shot below I have selected a profile for my HP printer and paper. And that's where you select a profile for your printer and paper.
    You do not click on ICM in your printer dialog. You click there only when you want your printer to manage colors.
    So try to print by selecting the profile in the print Module as indicated and do not click on ICM.
    By the way: Which OS? Are you on a Mac?

  • Photoshop CS5 unable to open for edits from Lightroom 3

    Have been experiencing numerous issue with the new LR and Photoshop not playing nice with each other on my Mac Pro w/10.6. Photoshop CS5 is will open in 1 attempt out of 8, and won't open from LR for editing purposes (it did once). Have been using in 32 bit mode to accommodate NIK and Topaz filters. I have reinstalled three times so far. Anyone got any ideas?

    Try deleting the prefs folder for Photoshop. Mine was doing something like this where it would not open the image inside
    of CS5 when you right click on the image and try an "open with". But it would work from the menu, most of the time. The cost is having to recreate custom settings inside Photoshop but since my CS5 was a new install as was LR3, it did not matter to me. It did require a reboot for the new preference file to fully take effect.
    From Adobe's own workaround
    5. Re-create the Photoshop preferences files.
    Re-create the Photoshop preferences file to eliminate problems that a damaged preferences file might cause.
    Note: Re-creating the Photoshop preferences file restores settings to their defaults.
    To re-create the Photoshop preferences file:
    Quit Photoshop.
    Rename the Users\[username]\Library\Preferences\Adobe Photoshop CS3 Settings\Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.psp folder to Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.old.
    Start Photoshop. Photoshop creates a new Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.psp file.
    If the problem continues, then the Photoshop preferences file isn't the cause. To restore custom settings, quit Photoshop, then delete the new Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.psp file and restore the original name of the previous Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.psp

  • Cannot import RAW into Lightroom 4 (Sony@500)

    I am unable to import my RAW files into Lightroom 4.  My camera is a Sony Alpha 500 DSLR.
    All reasearch I've done online hasn't resulted in any help.  Has anyone else had this issue?

    Welcome to the forum.
    Give a little more info. Are you trying to import direct from the camera, from a card reader, or are the files on your hard drive.
    If you are getting a message that the files "could not be read" it is possible that you may be trying to copy the files to a location where you may not have full permission to read and write.
    Your camera is listed as supported.
    Are you updated to the latest version of LR 4.4?

  • Cannot import RAW from Canon Powershot S50

    Hello,
    I am trying to import RAW files from a Canon S50 and I get a message stating that the files are unreadable. I can open them in Photoshop if I move them from the microdrive to the system.
    Any ideas.
    Erik

    Hello Erik
    is iphoto telling you that the file is unreadable? what version of iphoto are you using? i use to have a Canon S50 and had a "unreadable" file message. i used image capture to download the file though it was a jpeg error message.
    i used the packaged software to download and uncompress the RAW files instead of using iphoto(had ver. 4 at the time).

    Thank Silkrooster for your prompt answer. I just figured out my trouble was caused by the font size was 12pt while the photo resolution was large 20M pixels. By changing the font size to 200 I was able to see all the text. Thanks again!

    You cannot open Raw files from the Samsung NX300 in CS5.
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
    You need Adobe Camera Raw 7.4 or later which is only compatible with CS6 or later.
    Some choices:
    Upgrade to CS6
    Join the Cloud
    Join the CCPP
    Free option: download the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all Raw files from the NX300 to DNGs then edit the DNGs in CS5

    My Images won't open in Photoshop CS5 when I click on Edit in Lightroom - even though this option has been selected?  To edit in Photoshop I have to export image from Lightroom then import into Photoshop.  I have other programmes such as NIK and if I wish to edit in these everything works fine.

    Same here. I've never had trouble with this function before.
    It opens the Photoshop application with all the menus/windows, but it never opens the actual image I chose to work on.
    I'm on a Mac, using OS X Yosemite, 10.10.1  Lightroom is version 5.7  Photoshop is CS5, version 12.0.4
    FWIW, I also can't automate>Photomerge ... . Makes me think Photoshop, not Lightroom, is all wacky. I tried dumping PS preferences

  • Photoshop CS5.1 won't read raw files from Canon EOS M

    Photoshop cs5.1 won't read raw files from canon eosM, what to do?

    The EOS M requires at least Camera Raw 7.2 but Raw 7.2 is only compatible with CS6 or higher (CS5 is only compatible up to Raw 6.7)
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    To open and edit Raw files, either upgrade to CS6 or join the Cloud and get the CC version.
    Alternatively convert the Raw files from the EOS M to DNGs using the free DNG converter then edit the DNGs in CS5.1

  • I cannot import photos from my camera card into light room 5 or photoshop

    I cannot import photos from my camera card into light room 5 or photoshop

    There is no "into". LR and PS just reference your photos on the hard drive.
    When you import your photos "into" the LR catalog, LR can copy the images off your memory cards to the hard drive if you have not already copied them, but the photos are referenced by the LR catalog by the path and filename for the files.
    If you are having problems getting the images off the cards, what steps are you using and what error messages are you getting?

  • I cannot import fotos from my PC to IPAD, help, pls,

    i cannot import fotos from my PC to IPAD, help, pls,

    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

    Launch Lightroom and from the menu go to:
    Lightroom >> Preferences >> general (tab)
    Ensure there is a checkmark in the box “show import dialog when a memory card is detected”
    Then quit Lightroom and insert the card again. Does LR launch ready for import?
    If not, check that your card is mounted. You should see an icon on the desktop.
    Launch Lightroom and click the import button (bottom left)
    Expand the tree in the left-hand column of the import dialog e.g. from Mac HD >> Users….down to desktop.
    Highlight your card.
    Choose “Copy” at the top and either a named folder on the right or automatic dated folders.
    Then start the import.

  • ITunes freezes when importing music from CD and also when playing,

    Just recently iTunes has started to freeze when importing music from a CD - it just stops and the progress bar remains as it it. The whole mac then freezes and I get the spinning beachball. I can't use any other application. The same thing is happening when I play music - it's ok for a song or two and then freeze and the beachball appears. I've downloaded iTunes again and reinstalled and it's just the same. Using Safari and Mail etc is no problem at the moment.
    I also have a problem getting the iMac to recognise external hard drives - it won't show them on either firewire 400 or 800. I can see my 1TB drive using usb ( it shows up on the desktop, whereas on firewire it doesn't do this) but if I try to open it and see the contents in finder, it opens, but doesn't dispaly the contents of the drive. I can see the disk size but just get a grey spinning wheel in the bottom right hand of the finder window. Timemachine does not work.

    I have had the same problem & itunes crashes when i try to import a file. Now i can't even start itune. I've reinstalled itunes so many times, without a fix, I've lost count.
    I did post and had no reply. I'll watch this post with interest.
