Lightroom 4.4-Edit in Problems

I am working on a PC with windows vista-64 bit OS. I recently upgraded to Lightroom 4.4 and following that I uninstalled CS5.5 because I have CS6. When I go to work on my images in lightroom now and want to edit an image in photoshop, I right-click on the image/edit in/ and it gives me the option of opening it in CS4(which I don't have anymore) and Photoshop.exe. (Shown in Picture above) How do I change those options? Then it doesn't let me click on the last 4 options ("open as smart object in photoshop", "Merge to panorama in photoshop", "Merge to HDR in Photoshop", and "open as layers in photoshop"). How can I fix this? Please help!!
Edited:
Was informed by an adobe tech to uninstall all versions of Photoshop and Lightroom and reinstall it.

Lightroom edit in problem in photoshop

In Lightroom 5.7 CC, I experience "edit in" problem when I open a file (PSD, TIF or JPEG) to Photoshop CC.
The following message is displayed:
"Some of the application components are missing from the Application directory, Please reinstall the application."
Both ACR have the same verso (8.7).
Both Photoshop CC and Lightroom CC are up to date
Any idea what is the problem ?

When I define a second external editor into the Lightroom preference, pointing to the same Photoshop.app, everything work fine. It looks like Lightroom cannot set automatically the existing Photoshop CC as the primary external editor during the installation process.

Cropping in Lightroom and ACR+edit in Photoshop

Using the latest versions of Photoshop CC and Lightroom. After editing a raw file, including cropping, in either Lightroom or ACR and then
proceeding to Photoshop, the adjustments-exposure, white balance etc. are imported but not the crop! Very strange. Help would be appreciated in
solving this problem. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the quick reply Graeme. That is correct. I have tested the issue with a representative from NIK/Google. The "selective tool" was causing the problem. I was dealing with other problems too, like the "exposure" slider in ACR was jumping back all the time. I have been following another discussion concerning this (http://forums.adobe.com/message/5806682#5806682). I have not tried it yet, but there they have had success tackling the problem by changing the Country/Region.

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.

The only thing that matters is a valid serial number.

How to not create Lightroom duplicate when editing in Photoshop

When I choose to Edit in Photoshop from within Lightroom 3, the edited copy is added to Lightroom. This might sometimes be useful, but I want to choose whether or not the edited copy is added to lightroom.
How can I make this choice?
David

That's not my experience - maybe I've got some setting wrong somewhere.
I have two categories of images in Lightroom: DNG files originating from digital camera Raw files, and files which are PSD that were scanned from old photos.
Opening the DNG files in Photoshop then selecting "Save As" does not make the duplicate in Lightroom PROVIDED I have "As a copy" checked. But then the copy is not the file that's currently open so I have go find the copy and open it to do any work on it.
Opening PSD files from Lightroom in Photoshop, the duplicate is created immediately the file opens in Photoshop unless I select the "Edit original" option. But even then, if I subsequently use Save As within Photoshop, the copy appears in Lightroom.
My version of Lighrtoom is 3.4.1
My version of Photoshop is CS5.1
I'm on a Mac running Snow Leopard

I can not import photos into lightroom 4.4 Had no problem before this time.

I can not import photos into lightroom 4.4 Had no problem before this time. I have camera raw7.4 and use a NikonD7100. I have a Mac using 10.6.8. I can see the images and selected for import in Lightroom, but after I check "import" I get a message that Lightroom could not read the files. This happens with both raw and jpeg files. Thanks for a repl

thanks for the reply. would you please tell me how to check for the folder to have write permission. I have done the same settings as before but this time does not transfer. It says can not read files with a code "298". I can see the thumbnails on the screen prior to trying to import the photos, also can see them with the card in the camera and using the view mode. I have up to date camera raw 7.4 for my Nikon D7100 and the settings allow for 7.1 and above

I use Creative Suite CS5 Premium Design STUDENT edition, as well as Lightroom 3 STUDENT edition. Can I upgrade to CS6 and Lightroom 4 from student versions?

You can buy the commercial upgrades for CS6 and LR5. LR4 is no longer available.

Lightroom 4 Student Edition & photoshop student edition

I have downloaded Lightroom 4 student edition today and last year I downloaded Photoshop student edition. I am thinking of moving from a Windows computer to a Mac computer and would like to know how I move these programs to the new computer? Is this possible or do I have to purchase again? Do I have to do this whilst I am still a student? Can I upgrade my Photoshop (I don't have the latest), do I need to purchase again or can I upgrade.
Thanks

If you took the time to register Lightroom with Adobe then you can log into your Adobe account and get your serial number from there. If you still have the old computer with Lightroom installed on it the serial number can be retrieved from C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Lightroom. Open the lrreg file using Notepad and you can read the number. Note that the ProgramData folder is a hidden folder. It will be necessary for you to change so that your system browser will show hidden folders. If you are on a Mac the path is /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom.

Adobe Lightroom 4 Student Edition?

I just bought Lightroom 4 student edition and have it installed on my home computer. However, I am buying a new computer this year and was wondering if the application will allow me to uninstall on my home computer and reinstall on my new one?
Thanks

One other clarification, the "Student Edition" is exactly the same software install package as the "Regular Edition" you have just been able to obtain a special price for your License Key.
From here on you can just update and upgrade just like everyone else.

Lightroom 3 Student edition

Which website do I go to to obtain a serial number for my lightroom 3 student edition?

Sparky_hd1234 I would recommend reviewing the section How do I submit my proof of eligibility to get my serial number in our Education FAQ document. Feel free to respond to this thread if you have any additional questions.

Lightroom 3 and Photoshop CS6 problem when editing

Hi,
I have just upgraded to Photoshop CS6 and now when I 'edit in Photoshop CS6' from lightroom and save it, the image doesn't appear next to the original RAW file as it did before. Now lightroom creates its own folder with the edited files in.
For example, I edited a RAW file from a folder called Bissoe valley from Lightroom and saved it. When I go back to Lightroom the edited image is not next to the original file but in a seperate folder called 'Bissoe valley'. I then try to drag the edited image back into the original 'Bissoe valley folder with the original RAW file and it says 'the file already exists at the destination'
I appologise if this has already been asked. I'm guessing I need to buy Lightroom 4 because of incompatibility issues? It wouldn't surprise me if this is the case.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Victoria....you are a legend!
You can see here lightroom has created folders identically named to the folder which the original files belong to (coco, Harriet, Bissoe and independent assignment)
The really confusing part is that when I look in the original folder outside of Lightroom, the saved Tiff image is there next to the original.
I think I will try uninstalling ps cs6 and go back to cs5 to see if it solves the problem and take it from there....

[Consolidation-Locked] Lightroom 4 edit in problem

I purchased Lightroom 4 upgrade, installed it, converted my catalog, and set the preferences for "edit in" another application to Photoshop Elements 9. This works fine in Lightroom 3, but when I try to send aa photo from Lightroom 4 to Elements, nothing happens. No window to select the options, no lau=nch of Elements. Any ideas as to what is wrong? Anybody else having this problem?

PROBLEM SOLVED:
I fixed the problem ("Edit in" not working in Lightroom 4 on my Windows 7 machine). Here's what I did:
I found this page about a similar problem in LR3, "Edit In Photoshop Command Missing | Photoshop Lightroom."
I followed the instructions under "Solution 2: Recreate the Photoshop.exe application path registry key."
By default, the 64-bit version of Photoshop CS5.1 is installed here (copy and paste this in the Value Field mentioned in step 10): C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 (64 Bit)\photoshop.exe .
I skipped steps 13 through 16 since there was no "Path value" listed for this registry key.
Once I closed the registry editor and re-started Lightroom 4, all of the Edit in options were avaialble and they worked! Yippee!

Lightroom 5.6 "Edit in" with merge won't work with Photoshop Elements 13

I just installed Photoshop Elements 13 to edit photos from Lightroom. A single file will via "Edit in" will work, but all action on multiple files end in "could not start editor", even though the editor does start, it just won't open up any photos. Photomerge will work from files opened in Photoshop Elements, but i really don't want to organize my catalogue in both programs.
All combinations of export settings result in the same, i also deleted my settings again and tested it with another account on my computer.

None of my "Edit In" worked with the pictures in Lightroom for a particular folder. I expanded the 2014 folder and found that two subfolders had a "?" in front of the 2014-07-04" and another. In other words, the folder was missing. After I found the missing folders using the Lightroom "Find Missing Folder" option, I was able to use the "Edit In" menu item. The 2014 folders weren't expanded at first, so I didn't see the ? marks in front of them. With the missing folders, Lightroom's "Edit In" option was basically telling me there was no picture to "Edit In." Howerver, I have Previews and Smart Previews made when I import picture files into Lightroom. So, the "pictures" showed in the slide strip on the bottom, and also in the display in "expand," but it was actually only showing the previews I had built, not the actual missing pictures in the missing folders. I had accidentally moved some directories using Windows Explorer, and I didn't realize my "happy fingers" moved them outside of Lightroom. Of course, Lightroom has no way of knowing I moved them, and just shows the "?" before the missing folder name. After expanding the root folder, then knew what to do. Fixed it easily. It was frustrating, and took about 20 minutes to see the problem. And that fixed the greyed-out "Edit In" Photoshop CC 2014, and all the other plug-ins were greyed out too.
Hope this fixes your problem.
Mike
