Is it possible with 5.7 to double click a photo to open Lightroom. Still possible with 5.3.

With Lightroom 5.3 it is possible to open Lightroom by a double click on a photo and to import the file. With 5.4 id didn't work any longer. Is this repaired under 5.7 now?

I can't speak for Adobe. But if Lightroom 5.3 did this it was an oversight. That isn't the way the workflow should run. An efficient Lightroom workflow involves you understanding the catalog, and how utilizing the it is central to effective management of your images in Lightroom. The catalog is a database. Images need to be intentionally added to the catalog and stored in specific folders on your computer. Those folders are chosen by you. By allowing you to double-click on an image to open in Lightroom, that completely destroys any capability to efficiently manage a folder structure.
Lightroom isn't like other programs. It isn't a file browser that simply looks at every image on your computer. You need to intentionally import and place images in an organized fashion so that they can be managed effectively.

    Can you open the application from programs list ?
    Also, please verify if the application is installed correctly and if not then probably a re-installation would be required.

  • Occasionally,  some of the image borders turn dark grey (medium grey is the default) and then random other  images cannot be opened with a double click.  They only open when selected using the arrows on the keyboard.  They also cannot be moved to collecti

    Occasionally,  some of the image borders turn dark grey (medium grey is the default) and then random other  images cannot be opened with a double click.  They only open when selected using the arrows on the keyboard.  They also cannot be moved to collections.  Anyone have a solution for this?

    When you say  "could not be opened"- what are you referring to?  A double click of the mouse should view the clicked image in Loupe view- the same as pressing [E] on the keyboard for an enlarged view. (And a second double-click will take you back to library grid view.)
    To "open" an image in the Development module requires you to select the image then press [D] or click on the [Develop] button.
    When you say "could not be ...moved" -what are you referring to?  Are you trying to move an image file from its place in a folder to another folder? Are you just wanting it in a collection? When you drag an image to a collection you are only placing a link to the image in the collection- not actually moving any file. The image will stay exactly where it is in its original folder and will remain as a thumbnail preview in the Library Grid view.
    Are you having any "mouse" problems that may be changing its actions in LR ?
    Do you see an exclamation mark on any image borders ?
    Let's keep working on this. I am curious to see you find an answer.

  • When i double click a photo in iphoto to edit, the screen goes black

    when i double click a photo in iphoto to edit, the screen goes black.  I'm using 10.7.5 with iPhoto 9.4.2.  Can anyone help?

    There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
    1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
    2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
    4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
    5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    If none of these help:
    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • How do I enable double-click on toolbar to open new tab?

    I used to open a new empty tab by double clicking next to already opened tabs. This caused opening new one. This was removed in one of the updates :( I miss it a lot.

    Does it work when you start Firefox with Add-ons disabled? (''Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled'')
    *Do NOT check any boxes when entering Safe Mode, just click to continue
    *If it works in Safe Mode, then an extension is causing the problem and you must determine which extension.
    *To exit Safe Mode, click ''Firefox button > Exit'' OR ''File > Exit'', wait a few seconds (10-30) for Firefox to close completely, then use your Desktop icon to start Firefox.

  • Double-Click on photo = Black Screen

    I have some high quality (for me) photos that came from a professional wedding photographer. They are about 4mb a piece. In iPhoto 08 I had no problem with them. I could move them around, print, do whatever I needed.
    With iPhoto 09... when I double-click on them to bring them up to the larger size so that I can see greater detail and edit them... the picture goes to black.
    Any clue as to what is going on?? My wife is going to kill me if she can't get to her wedding pictures easily!

    Hi Guys,
    I have read with interest all your posts on this issue but unfortunately, for all your suggestions my problem is not resolved. I have done the following:
    1. Rebuilt the iPhoto Library (both the small thumbnails, all thumbnails and file permissions)
    2. Examined the version of 'AppleAppSupport.framework' which is at 1.5 in my machine
    3. Downloaded and reinstalled 'Mac OS X 10.5.6 Combo Update'
    4. Examined the Console log to determine if any error messages appear when I double-click a photo (there are none)
    5. Examined the color-profile and other properties of some photos which exhibit the problem (they are the same as the other photos in the event taken with the same camera)
    6. I even tried editing the photo (which is the only time I can see it) and saving it but with no change
    I hope that someone here can shed some light on this most strange issue which only started after upgrade to iLife '09.
    Regards,
    Michael

  • HT3159 When I double click on IPhoto to open and look at my photos the APP store trys to open it. I never had this issue before. Why now?

    I was using IPhoto looking at creating a Book when I uploaded the book for purchasing the site froze.

She found it in the trash.It worked fine for a day or two, I uploaded more photos from Nikon camera closed IPhoto and now it won't open. The App Store trys to open it but it times out and won't connect.

    Try dragging a photo to the desk top, highlight it and press COMMAND I this will open the info window, in the drop down menu "open with" select either preview, or other, then select iPhoto. Preview is the default.
    Then click "Change All"

    my business partner signed up for the acrobat xl pro, and added me to the account.  it send me an email to download and install, but after it downloads, nothing happens, can't double click on it to open, it just does nothing on the double click.  I tried to download again, and still same thing.  I am on a mac with latest OS.  Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

  • Iphoto is quitting unexpectedly when I double click a photo

    iphoto is quitting unexpectedly when I double click a photo within iPhoto to enlarge it or scroll all the way to the top to the most recent pictures.  Any ideas? I have the most recent version and all updates are done.  HELP!

    Now we try repair the original Library. Switch back to it:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
    Then assuming you're using iPhoto 09 or later:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    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.

  • Before I upgraded to 8.0 I could double click and see all open Apps and then close them. Now when I double click I am not sure what I am seeing or what to do?

    Before I upgraded to 8.0 I could double click and see all open Apps and then close them. Now when I double click I am not sure what I am seeing or what to do?

    The format keeps changing but the basics remain...in the center of the screen are large images of the recent apps which you can close by swiping up and away.

    Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen!
    My question concerns the impossibility to open RAW-files directly from the program Adobe Bridge. At the moment when you open a RAW-file from Adobe Bridge by double-clicking, RAW-file is opened only in Photoshop. In the settings Adobe Bridge - in "open RAW-files by double-clicking in Adobe Camera Raw» box is checked. When you try any changes in the settings Adobe Bridge system displays a message:
    Bridge's parent application is not active. Bridge requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature.
    The entire line of Adobe products on my computer updated to the latest updates. Previously, a family of products Adobe Photoshop on your computer is not set. Computer - PC, Windows 7 Enterprises.
