Lightroom 3's "edit in photoshop CS4" does not preserve "detail" values

Hi all,
I am giving lightroom 3 a try (finally...), but noticed that when I have an image to which I have applied "detail" adjustments to reduce luminescence and color noise, using "edit in Photoshop CS4" opens the image without the detail adjustments applied. I don't see the option to pick whether to edit "the image" or "the image with lightroom settings" anywhere, and I'm scratching my head trying to find an option in the preferences (both LR and Catalog prefs) that lets me pick "edit with lightroom settings applied".
It's a bit useless this way =/
Does anyone know how to make "edit in ..." for lightroom 3 always apply the image corrections to the edit copy?

I had been looking for that option, turns out the only way to get it back was to reset all warning dialogs. After telling LR to render with lightroom, things look great again.
Thanks!

Photoshop CS4 does NOT use RAM as scratch disk

Photoshop CS4 does NOT use RAM as scratch disk
as far as I can tell.
I have 20 GB RAM and still Photoshop uses the hard disk as scratch disk.
(OS = Win 7 64).
Can I force the use of RAM as scratch disk?

Hi PECourtejoie,
I really try to understand this, please.
I don't know if 'Hitting the hard disk brings unacceptable slowdowns in my workflow'.
Because I don't know what unacceptable slowdowns are.
Any operation in Phshp takes time, and you always want it to go as fast as possible..
I know that if Phshp only worked against RAM instead of constantly saving to (and reading from) the hard drive it ought to go faster.
But I still don't know if this is the case, because there is a constant use of a tempfile on the hard drive's Scratch disk!
So far I understand that Phshp may BOTH work in RAM AND save data to the hard drive Scratch disk.
It could be possible that the writing to the hard disk happens when Phshp is idle from other tasks and that the reading only happens when data has disappeared from the Cache in RAM.
That could be a scenario where a Scratch disk on Hard drive doesn't interfere with Phshps performance, and an explanation why we should not bother about the Scratch disk on the hard drive.
But I would very much like to have some confirmation on this, IF this is the explanation of how the Scratch disk on a hard drive works without influencing Phshp's performance??
Everybody just seem to assume that Photoshop uses (some) parts of RAM as work space - I just need a better understanding of this. And some correct descriptions.

Photoshop CS4 does not recognize raw photos taken with newer cameras. Anyone else have this problem?

Photoshop CS4 will not recognize RAW2 photos taken with my new Panasonic Lumix FZ100 camera. This camera is listed in Adobe's 6.2 Camera Raw update for Photoshop CS5 but cannot be loaded in CS4. I paid a lot of money for CS4 and don't want to buy CS5 just because I bought a new camera, but it appears that Adobe no longer updates Camera Raw for CS4 or with newer cameras. When I called the Help Desk to find out if there was some kind of patch I could get to make CS4 compatible with my new camera a gentleman in New Delhi informed me that he couldn't even answer my question until I paid $40 since answering questions about CS4 was a "paid service." I hung up in a rage. Does anyone else have this problem and is there a solution?

This camera is listed in Adobe's 6.2 Camera Raw update for Photoshop CS5 but cannot be loaded in CS4.
Adobe does indeed not update obsolete versions of Camera Raw for new camera types.
And guess what: It’s the camera producers who seem to like to change their raws – so how about spreading some of your indignation their way?
I paid a lot of money for CS4 and don't want to buy CS5 just because I bought a new camera
The upgrade is cheaper than buying the full version.
Anyway, you could try the free DNG Converter which should be able to handle everything the most recent version of Camera Raw can handle.

"Edit in Photoshop Elements" does not appear as option in Lightroom 4.3

After viewing this artical:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/edit-photoshop-command-missing-photoshop.html and completing all options related to the Mac, the "Edit in Photoshop..." still does not appear as a clckable option in my Lightroom 4.3 program which has all the current updates. Also, my Photoshop Elements 11 program also has all the current updates.
Please note that in the interest of time, that all of the "solutions" were attempted in the above mentioned link
Also, was on hold with Adobe Lightroom help phone support for over 1.5 hours without any agent answeing the phone. Also Adobe automatied phone support states that Photoshop Elements is not supported free of charge and it is fee based. How is a consumer suppose to have a problem corrected in Lightroom that stems from Elements when it is suppose to intergrate that way between the two programs but any help to try to correct the way it is suppose to work will cost you an addition fee in phone support for Elements?
And help on fixing this issue will be apprecitated.
Lightroom v 4.3 / Camera RAW v 7.3
Elements v 11.0 / Camera RAW v 7.3.0.71

Did this with Adobe support in LIVE CHAT, what a waist of time. Although this will correct the issue, it is like a work around and not solving why EDIT IN PHOTOSHOP... is not a clickable option (greyed out) in LR.
After the configure as suggested above, does this preclude and editing in Lighroom?
What I want to do is:
Edit the photo in LR except for:
the useage the great Spot Healing Brush Tool that PSE offers, edit that part of it in PSE then SAVE the results back to LR. Any problems or suggestions for this?
Thanks so much

Lightroom 2.2 edit in Photoshop CS4 command

Hello. I've tried to search for this topic in the frequently asked question, however I do not quite know how to enter it in the search field. I have a MacBook Pro 17" and have PSCS4 and LR 2.2. Earlier I was opening an Olympus RAW file using the "Edit in" command in LR2.2. The photo would open in ACR and then I could tweak the setting, if need be, then it would open in Photoshop and I could use the all the filters. I believe, not sure, that it opened as a jpeg after I clicked the open image button in ACR. Now, when using "Edit in..." command it will open the photo as an Olympus RAW file, skipping ACR and I will only be able to use a few of the filters.
Was I mistaken when I opened the previous files as RAW then converted to jpeg in ACR? How can I open the RAW file as a Jpeg and roundtrip the whole affair?
I hope this was written clear enough.
Thank you for taking the time to read this post.
Sincerely

I think you've missed the part that she's starting out in
b Lightroom.
There is absolutely NO reason to take a file from Lightroom into ACR, jpeg or otherwise. I don't think it's even possible, regardless of how ACR is set up.
Her quote:
>Earlier I was opening an Olympus RAW file using the "Edit in" command in LR2.2. The photo would open in ACR and then I could tweak the setting,
makes no sense at all. (even if it actually is a jpeg)
I agree there's definitely some confusion ....
I think her goal is to end up with a jpeg after using the Edit in Photoshop command in LR. A file opened in PS from LR using EIP is still technically a RAW file ... until it's saved. The default Save behavior is either PSD or TIFF depending on LR's prefs. To save as a jpeg, you'd need to do a Save As from PS. I think her main problem is that the file is 16 bit - which prevents the jpeg option.

Lightroom 5.5 edit in Photoshop CC 2014 not working.

PHOTOSHOP CS4 DOES NOT RECOGNIZE MY SCANNER

I just installed Photoshop CS4 64 bit in a new computer with Windows 7. I downloaded and installed Twain Driver and Epson Scan Utility v3.04A as recommended by Epson for my Epson Perfection 4990 Photo Scanner to use with Windows 7. The scanner works fine as a stand alone and works with Microsoft Paint, so the drivers seem to be installed correctly. But when I open PSCS4 and go to file/automate, the scanner is not seen.
I spoke with Epson tech support who tells me I am missing a 64 bit twain plug in for PSCS4 which is required for the scanner to be recognized by PS. They said there is no problem with 32 bit, but I need to wait for this 64 bit Twain Plug in to be released by either Adobe or Microsoft in order for this to work with my set up.
What are people doing with PSCS4 and Windows 64 bit and Epson scanner? I realize I can scan outside of Photoshop as a work around, but this is not ideal. Any suggestions.
Thanks,
Matthew Kraus

As John Joslin suggested... try VueScan. Excellent scanning software, very reasonably priced, unlimited upgrades, less than U$ 100. Just check if your scanner is supported (i just checked and it seems to be).
http://www.hamrick.com/
I used to use it and found it excellent. In fact, one of the cool things was that i could do all my scans in one session and then open the images in PS when i wanted / needed to work on them.

Photoshop CS4 does not release RAM

I run Photoshop CS4 on a Windows PC with 4GB. Even though I frequently
"purge", Photoshop does not seem to be releasing RAM even when all files
have been closed, often holding on to some 2GB RAM. Only when I terminate
Photoshop, the RAM it grabbed is released. This means I would have to exit
and relaunch Photoshop many times a day.
Any suggestions?

>the RAM is reused
Yes but since PS claims the RAM (for very good reasons, I agree) it seems only available to PS itself, so sometimes a plug-in (like PTlens) reports that it doesn't get the RAM it needs. Only one normal camera file is open.
After relaunching PS it works.
Sometimes RAM actually seems to get released within a session, why that happens, I don't know.
I have no problem with PS working this way. I appreciate PS wants RAM that's contiguous and thus doesn't want the O/S to hand it out, but some parts of the workflow call for external plug-ins to join in.

Photoshop CS4 does not start

Hi there,
I just bought a web premium CS 4 suite. I am able to use all the other programmes however I am unable to use the photoshop CS 4. On start up, while it loads "reading preferences", another pop-up window appears with the message "Adobe Photoshop CS 4 has stopped working"
I know this question has been up several times. I have read through all of them and tried all methods but to no avail - I have tried deleting the preference file by the ctrl alt shift and manual method. I have disabled my anti-virus.. however i still cannot start my programme. any more advice to offer?
Thanks in advance.

Hi, this is probably a year toooo late but better late then never
Try clearing your perf file by selecting CTRL, Alt, Shift during PS Start up. You have to be quick with the open timing. A screen should pop up asking if you want to reset. Hit yes. A conformation should pop up after.
cheers, Andreas

Photoshop CS4 does not recognize my printers

I've been looking throught the posts on this subject back to
April or May and don't see any real answers.
My Os is Windows 7 (64bit). All the printers are
networked. The printer i want to print to is an Epson
7800. PSD and modified photo all come up with the error
message stating that I need to install printer. Unmodified
photos don't have this problem. Also my laptop running
Windows 7 (32 bit) works fine. So a gather from what is am
seeing in my system and on the web, PS has a problem
dealing with networked printers while running Win7 (64Bit).
Any one have any new thoughts on the problem?
Thanks, Les

Hi,
Exit Photoshop.
Go into windows devices and printers and change the default printer to Microsoft XPS Document Writer.
Open Photoshop and when you get ready to print something and the print window options comes up change the printer in there to the network printer you want the job to print on.
See if that works.

Dowloaded Lightroom 3. Now Photoshop CS4 will not open??

Please help. Can anyone explain why my photoshop program will not open.. I use Photoshop Bridge then double click on an image and Photoshop opens.
After I downloaded Lightroom 3 which I purchased through an on-line re-seller, I selected some images and imported them into Lightroom.
I do not understand why Photoshop CS4 does not open.
can anyone advise me.

What kind of files anyway?
What is the format’s »File Type Association« (check under Adobe Bridge CS4 > Prefernces)?

Edit in Photoshop CS4... does not open the selected file.

Sorry if this is an old topic, but I can not seem to find the answer and I was hoping someone here might know.
When in Lightroom (2.2 or 2.3) if I select "Edit in Photoshop CS4..." or any of those dropdown commands, Photoshop opens....and that is it. The selected photo from Lightroom is NOT opened/merged/panoramaized. duuh. frustrating.
So I re-installed Lightroom, updated to the 2.3, re-installed CS4. all with the same effect that Photoshop opens, but the selected file is NOT opened.
Has anyone experienced this? Any solutions?
Thanks in advance.

When you remove the obvious,
that which is left must therefore be the truth -- Sherlock Holmes
Short version:
When I created a new lightroom catalog, and imported a single, standalone file, It worked fine. But when I imported to the new catalog, any photos from my existing catalog, it would fail.
Turns out that I was doing something a bit out of the ordinary with the IPTC Copyright field. In order to make my copyright information look "different" when I would export a file.
One would normally put in that field something like "© 2009 someone". I discovered a few months ago that I could make this field display as a multi line entry.
ie.
if you wanted to put XY into the copyright field, but wanted it to display as:
X
Y
all you would have to do is to put a carrage return between the two characters. (hint ctl^enter). Now when you displayed the "copyright" in an output file, it will display
vertically instead of all the characters in a horizontal line.
After being frustrated by this for a couple of weeks, I simply started removing every option that I might have applied to photographs that I would import with Lightroom. One of the last ones was the "vertical" information I put in the copyright field in a Preset. (when you remove the obvious...).
Funny thing is that no program really cares about the formatting of that field, or if it has multiple lines in the data, or special characters.......It even opens up just fine in Photoshop / Gimp / PSE / etc. with no problems.
But, if you have multiple lines of data in the Copyright Field (and I suspect others as well),
AND you want to open up the file from Lightroom in Photoshop, using the standard menu item of " Edit with Photoshop CS4", for some reason Photoshop will start, but never open the designated file. I would expect some parsing something just giving up after it encounters a CR.
But.....All is well that ends well. Now I can quit obsessing, and move on to something else...
Best,
Jim

Lightroom 5 file edited in photoshop cc 2014 does not appear back next to original after save. Is anyone else having this issue? If so what is the fix. The edited image appears back in lightroom in a new folder.

Lightroom 5 file edited in photoshop cc 2014 does not appear back next to original after save. Is anyone else having this issue? If so what is the fix. The edited image appears back in lightroom in a new folder.

I'm performing a normal "Save", not "Save As". Work flow I'm using is as follows: Select photo in Lightroom 5.7 >" Edit In" Photoshop CC 2014 > (after working on photo is PS) > Save > close PS. Photo returns to Lightroom 5.7 in a new folder rather than next to the original. Prior to purchasing the monthly plan and upgrading to PS CC 2014, I performed this same work flow using Lightroom 5.6 and Photoshop CS6 without any issues.
Just for fun... I attempted to move the edited file back into the original folder. I received a prompt that said the file already existed in the original folder, however I can't see it except the new folder that LR created. I tried several different sort orders, etc without any success.
*** Follow up: Was unable to resolve the issue using Photoshop CC 2014. Uninstalled PS CC 2014 and went back to using Photoshop CS6. Return trips from LR 5.7 to Photoshop is now performing as it should: returning edited photo back to the original folder in LR 5 and placing next to the original image.
Should anyone have a suggestion on getting Photoshop CC 2014 to do the same, I would love to be educated.
Thanks for the help, dj_paige.
