Issues with exporting photos to be edited in Photoshop CS6 from Lightroom 5.6 using Yosemite OS.

Suddenly, I'm unable to edit my photos from Lightroom 5.6 in Photoshop CS6.  I have recently converted from Mavericks to Yosemite OS.  But, I haven't had any issues for the past week or two.   Now, whenever I try to Edit photos from Lightroom 5.6 in Photoshop CS6, either nothing happens.  Or from the drop down menu, the option to Edit in Photoshop CS6 is greyed out.  Both Lightroom and Photoshop are the latest versions.  I've even uninstalled, and reinstalled Photoshop CS6 without any improvement.  Help!!!

Sorry, I was wrong about the check box, that only works if you are importing images from a memory card.  If they are already in the catalogue, they will be greyed out in either case.
"I'm pretty confident therefore that it is not in the catalog but it appears that Lightroom for some reason thinks it is."  Well I can't read Lightroom's mind, but I think that Lightroom thinking it is in the catalog is the same thing as it being in the catalog.
When you still have the edited file open in Photoshop CS6, after you have edited and saved it as "IMG_4312-edit.tif," what happens if you try "save as," does it bring you to the correct folder to save it in?  If you try to save as without changing the name does it ask if you want to overwrite the original?  Can you now save it with a new name (e.g. "IMG_4312-Edit2.tif") and have it show up?
You type above, "IMG_4312.CRW, I do some edits in Lightroom but I want to do some more in Photoshop so I send it to the PS CS6 from within Lightroom. The image opens, I make my edits and I click Save. This creates  a new file called IMG_431-Edit.tif."  4312 vs. 431 just make sure you aren't making the same small mistake when searching for the file.

  • Edit in Photoshop CS6 from Lightroom 4.1 fails

    I am using LR 4.1 and PS CS6 on a Win7 64bit system.  Previously with LR3 and LR4 I was able to "Edit in Photoshop" from Lightroom to CS5 and all was well.  Now with LR4.1 and PS CS6 when I "Edit in Photoshop CS6" I get a partial image.  Any image that I try produces various versions of this.  The attached screen capture shows a blank area in the upper left corner.  Other images have shown several smaller blank areas in various positions on the image, and one image contained several blank areas plus a small inset of the image.
    This is quite frustrating, as I generally use LR to crop and make minor adjustments in a photo, then edit some photos in PS.  Now I can no longer edit anything in PS without first exporting the image from LR, work on it in PS, then save it and reimport it into LR.  Very inconvenient.
    Please advise what I am doing wrong or let me know if there is a workaround.
    Thanks in advance,
    -Herschel

    This is probably a video card driver bug which has been reported in the PS forum from time to time. It's a PS problem, not a LR problem.
    Assuming this is Windows, go to the video card maker's website and download an updated driver. Don't rely on Windows update; they're frequently several versions behind. On a Mac it would have to be through OS X updates.

  • Edit in Photoshop CS6 from Lightroom 4.3

    I'm in Lightroom 4.3 and right clicking on a image and clicking "Edit in Adobe Photoshop CS6". CS6 opens as if it's going to open up with my photo from Lightroom, but my photo doesn't show up?

  • "Edit in Photoshop" link from Lightroom has stopped working.

    My "Edit in Photoshop" link from Lightroom has stopped working.  If I hit "Cmd E" in Lightroom, Photoshop opens, but the picture doesn't appear.  I have LR 5 and PS CC 2014.  I recently uninstalled or deleted PS 6 & PS CC (not PS CC 2014).  Any suggestions?

    Same problem here. I uninstalled Photoshop CS5 and reinstalled. No change.  I also tried dumping PS preferences
    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.

  • Can't "Edit in Photoshop CS6" in Lightroom 4.1, after upgrading Photoshop from CS4

    I recently installed Creative Suite 6 Production Premium, and uninstalled Photoshop CS4, but Lightroom seems to be confused and doesn't show "Edit in Photoshop CS6" as an option. 
    Lightroom seems to be aware that Photoshop CS4 is no longer installed: the first command under "Edit In" is "Edit in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4 (64 Bit)\Photoshop...", and all the Photoshop-specific "edit in" commands (smart object, layers, etc.) are unavailable.  I tried adding Photoshop CS6 as a secondary editor, but this makes Lightroom export a TIFF to PS rather than opening the file in Camera Raw.
    I'm not sure what I have to do to convince Lightroom that I have Photoshop CS6 installed.  Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Well, I had searched the forums before and couldn't locate an answer, but ended up finding an answer through the "more like this" links at the right.  The CS4 path was stored in the Windows registry; I had to update it to CS6 and it's now working perfectly.

  • Editing in PS CS6 from Lightroom

    I have LR 4.4 set up to Edit in PSD format but LR 4.4 still uses jpg if original file is jpg. If I add some layers to the file and save it in PSD format, LR 4.4 won't see it until I import it. There is, however, a new JPG file with "Filename-Edit.jpg" in the library next to the original "Filename.jpg".

    Yes, I have the preferences set to export as PSD...
    Also, I have been doing this for many versions without any problems UNTIL 4.4.
    No, not exactly. Let me explain what I wrote in the original post more clearly.
    I scanned some photos (on my scanner) that saves them as a jpg file.
    I imported these jpg files into Lightroom 4.4
    Now, I want to edit one using Photoshop (as I have done thousands of time before 4.4)
    Yes, my preferences are set to edit in photoshop as PSD.
    I click "Edit in" and select Photoshop. It does not matter whether I choose Edit Original, Edit a Copy, or Edit a Copy with LR adjustments but the file it sends to Photoshop CS6 is a jpg file with the name "Orig Filename-Edit.jpg". Prior to LR 4.4, the file in this scenario would have been (and should be) "Orig Filename-Edit.PSD".
    The file shown in CS6 is the jpg file. The new file in the LR 4.4 list is the jpg. Prior to LR 4.4, the file in both places would have been PSD.

  • Edit in Photoshop CS5 from Lightroom 3.2 doesn't open file in Photoshop

    Hi,
    I've just made a complete fresh install of Lightroom 3.2 and Photoshop CS5 extended on my new iMac (OS 10.6.4, x64)
    Now I'm trying to edit raw-files in Photoshop CS5.
    Normally a popup should appear to ask in which format the photo should be opened in PS.
    But no popup is shown, Photoshop starts immediately, but without actually opening the photo.
    If I configure Photoshop as secondary editor this problem does not appear, and everyting works fine.
    But in that case I miss the option for a secondary editor like for example DxO...
    What to do?
    Regards,
    Menno

    Menno,
    I can't help you with your primary problem, as I'm not a CS5 user.
    But regarding your second concern with having CS5 as a secondary editor and therefore not having the option for additonal external editors:
    You can have as many external editors as you like, e.g. CS5 as one, DXO as one, Nik Viveza as one and so on. All you have to do is create different External Editor Presets in Preferences for each desired external editor.

  • Edit in Photoshop CS6 from LR4

    When I want to bring 2 images at once into Photoshop CS6 in order to put them side by side, I've tried Edit in & Open as Layers in Photoshop.  Then created a new canvas for these 2 images but don't know how to bring them into canvas.   The images seem to disappear from the right hand panel.  Thanks for your help.

  • IPhoto - issues with export photos

    I have recently added a QNAP NAS to my home network and am playing with the TWONKY / DLNA Media Server.
    Would like to put a copy of all of my photos onto the NAS so that I can share them from the server to DLNA apps
    I am trying to use "File / Export" from iPhoto to send the whole library to the NAS
    I have tried twice now and each time I get as far as about 3,500 photos when the following happens:
    I have over 28K photos in my library
    Is there an easier way to share them to the NAS than the way I am trying and why am I getting these fails ?

    The "Unable to create" error message is very typical for a problem caused by incompatible file systems.  Your NAS will have a filesystem that is different from MacOS Extended (Journaled). I that case filenames and folder names, that are acceptable on your Mac may be ambiguous and cause conflicts on the NAS.
    I get as far as about 3,500 photos
    Try to find out, what the next file or folder would have been, that stopped the export. Look at the folders, that have been created correctly, and than look in the iPhoto library, to see the next file or folder, that should have been created. Is there something unusual about the filename or folder name? Ethnic characters? A very long file name? Ctrl characters in the name? If you can identify the problematic item, try to skip it and continue exporting with the next items.
    Or use a different naming scheme for the export - use a custom name instead of "event name" and "original filename".

  • Edit in Photoshop CC in Lightroom 4 opens Photoshop CC on my backup drive (OS X 10.8)

    Hello,
    I am having an issue with Lightroom 4 that only began after I installed Photoshop CC. 
    Every night I clone my iMac to a bootable backup drive.  With Photoshop CS6 I had no problems with this.  Now, whenever I choose "Edit in Photoshop CC" from Lightroom, it opens the copy of Photoshop on my backup drive instead of the copy on my local drive.  I have tried everything I can think of to correct this behavior, bit every time it reverts back to doing this.  If I eject my backup drive it will then choose the correct copy of Photoshop CC.  But the next time I launch Lightroom, it will tell me that the location of Photoshop CC has changed and make me enter my system password.  Then it starts using the version off the backup drive again!
    This is very frustrating.  I don't want to have to unmount my backup drive every time I lose Lightroom.  I've tried reinstalling both Photoshop CC and Lightroom 4. 
    Between this and my continuing inability to publish to Facebook, I'm starting to think Adobe just wants me to upgrade to Lightroom 5.

  • Edit in Photoshop CS6 - after saving, file ends up in a seperate directory in Library module but ...

         Hi,
    I'm getting this really annoying thing when I edit and save a file in Photoshop CS6 from Lightroom. After I save and return to LR4.2 in Windows Explorer it puts the TIFF in the same directory next to the original RAW file as it should, however in the Library module it gets a different entry. So I end up with the same directory listing with the photocount 1 next to it. It also doesn't show up in the main directory where all the other files are, it's not next to the originel RAW.
    I can do "show parent folder" until the point I get to the root directory which then gives me an error message which says 
    Anyone know why this occurs?

    Image files are on a different drive, the catalog is on my main SSD drive
    I have recently bought a new computer with Windows 8

  • Issue with export in Excel in WAD

    Hi
    I have an issue with export to excel in WAD. I have a web template with two or more tabs.
    On the webtemplate I have two buttons to export to excel. One to export the content from the active tab and one button to export content in all tabs.
    My problem is that when I export to excel it always add the current/active content twice. I've tried with both buttons and they work as expected except that they export one table to much (the active).
    can anyone help / give a clue what to look for.

  • I cannot open photo's stored in my i photo library to edit in Photoshop Elements.  Adobe comes up with the message program error. I use a Macbook Air.

    I cannot open photo's stored in my i photo library to edit in Photoshop Elements.  Adobe comes up with the message program error. I use a Macbook Air.

    No, that is done deliberately, since letting other programs poke around in the iphoto library is the fastest known way to corrupt it and make it wither up and die, along with your photos. If you want to use PSE with iphoto you have two choices:
    1. Set PSE as your external editor and send the photos from iphoto. Edit them, then save without changing the name or format and iphoto will remember your last saved edits + original, although you have to lose the edits to see the original again. You may need to set the editor prefs>saving files>on first save to save over existing to make this work.
    2. Export the photos from iphoto, use file>open in PSE, make all the changes of any sort that you like, save the file, and import it to iphoto as a new file.
