Lightroom 5.3 automatically bumps up saturation on import. How can I prevent this?

I did a quick screen capture, and as you can see, the picture on the right (saturated) is the "unedited" version in lightroom, and the picture on the left is the raw file opened (used IrfanView). As you can see, my original file is quite flat, and I like it that way (easeier to edit), but lightroom imports it, and when I click on it to develop, it adds saturation. If I wanted to make it look like the origianl, I have to manually bring down the saturation by ~ -30! Why is Lightroom auto adjusting my images?
Also, please note I have not experienced this issue before, just recently started.
I used a Canon 6D to take this picture.

"Thanks for your reply. This is an ongoing issue, and from what I have been reading, Lightroom doesn't recognize "User Defined" picture styles. This is kind of odd, because I see the RAW files differently when I open them outside lightroom (with Windows picture viewer, IrfanView etc), then when I open them in lightroom. The original RAW files appear to have the "user defined" picture style that I have selected."
This is where the confusion arises.
a. You are quite correct Lightroom does not recognize "user Defined" picture styles. Lightroom is third party software for processing raw files from digital cameras and apply their there own profiles for processing the raw file data to produce a viewable image.
b. You cannot view raw files unless the data is processed, what you may see when utilizing other software like (Windows picture viewer, InfranView etc) is the imbeded jpeg file produced by your camera firmware and included with the raw file data. With the Lightroom rendition you see the "Lightroom Chef's rendition of the raw data".
c. Why would you purchase a third party software package at an additional cost to provide you with the same rendition that the software provided by your camera manufacturer provides for free. Adobe is about providing you with an alternative option with lots of additional opportunities for improving the rendering of the raw data.
d. The rendition produced by your camera firmware and their software is propritory and their own "recipe" which they believe is acceptable and pleasing to the user. It is not accurate or superior to other software renditions.

    Sounds like your phone has the jitters.
    This is sometimes caused when a DLL fle is missing when you restore, so the ipsw pacakge wasn't installed corectly.
    You could back up and restore, but if it doesn't help go to http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/ and then download the same firmware your on.
    Open up iTunes and hold Shift+Restore and select that firmware, you can't use anoy ther firmwares though.

  • When importing raw photos from Nikon D90 aperture seems to automatically adjust exposure darker. why? How can I stop this?

    When importing raw photos from Nikon D90 aperture seems to automatically adjust exposure darker. why? How can I stop this?

    This is typical of the default NEF RAW conversion of Aperture and the best thing you can do is set up a few presets to apply to all of your RAW images to get a tone curve and colors that is pleasing to you as a default. The in camera JPEGs / embedded JPEGs (that you first see during import) are treated to the Nikon "Picture Control" settings that are set on the camera - the RAW's as interpreted by Aperture are not.
    I have written extensively and even have a few downloadable presets on my site - look for NEF...

    some sites that use flash (or other issues) dont want you trying to view the site in your browser on an ios device, because they know it will not be a good experience - they detect your device, and if it is an ios device  they want you to use their app instead of your browser.

    Duh, install Flip4Mac. It has been Microsoft's officially recommended software for playing wma files since they stopped development of the Mac version of Windows Media Player some years ago.

  • When I import Nikon NEF photos from my D3S, it automatically converts them to jpeg. How can I fix this?

    When I import RAW photos from my D3S, iPhoto automatically converts them to jpeg.  I want to edit my images in a RAW format.  I used to be able to save my images as a NEF in iPhoto and edit them in RAW on Photoshop.   Can this be fixed, or do I have to find a new software to manage my RAW photos?

    RAW files are just sensor dumps of the raw data and can't be viewed unless a jpeg version is created. The jpeg version of the photo is created by iPhoto for display purposes.
    Make sure Photoshop is set as the external editor in iPhoto's Advanced preference pane and that RAW files are edited when using the external editor.
    You do know that when editing a RAW photos with Photoshop from within iPhoto the edited version must be saved to the Desktop and imported into iPhoto as a new file.

    * Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
    The setting in "Tools > Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.

  • Thunderbird automatically changes resolution of attached incoming and outgoing image files to 72 dpi. How can I prevent this?

    Using Thunderbird 31.4.0 on Win7 Professional with full Admin rights. It seems that all jpeg files larger than 50 KB (or maybe even smaller) are automatically altered from their original resolution of 300 dpi (or higher) to 72 dpi, both outgoing as well as incoming. I have tried unchecking and checking the "Display Attachments Inline" checkbox in the View menu but this does not change the behavior.
    In the Config Editor, the setting 'browser.enable_automatic_image_resizing' is set to False. In addition, the setting 'image.high_quality_downscaling.enabled' is also set to False. Please help!
    Thank you!

    Yes, fortunately, I am a Windows user, but I don't want to start a religious war here And it is also possible to run multiple versions of Adobe products simultaneously under Windows - why shouldn't that be possible? Currently I have CS3 and CS4 and somtimes use CS3 when CS4 is just too buggy to get the job done. Before that I had CS and CS2 on the same machine.
    But I wouldn't keep all versions back to PS 6.0 or CS, that would be a bit too chaotic and I'd had to spend days of installing if I get a new computer. I expect those programs to be a little bit backwards-compatible, so I don't have to use many different versions. And for Photoshop, this is mostly the case. It's just very tiny details like Smart Object resizing that seems to work differently.
    Otherwise I'm really happy that in CS4 I can finally link Masks to smart objects and apply warp and perspective on them, that's a big plus!

  • I have two iphones and i synced them now i cant delete my contacts off one phone without it automatically deleting off the other.. how can i fix this?

    please help!!

    That's what syncing does. It keeps the information on multiple devices "in sync" with each other. It is working as designed.
    What are you syncing your iPhones with? iTunes, iCloud, Google Sync, Exchange?
    If you don't want one phone to sync with the other, you'll have to turn off syncing on that phone, or change what it syncs with.

  • How can I prevent old version of Lightroom startup

    When I startup my Windows XP system my old version of Lightroom -- 1.4.1 -- opens automatically. I use a later version of Lightroom -- 3.4.1. -- and would like neither version to open automatically. How can I achieve this?
    Wendell

    Wendell,
    There's a system utility msconfig that (among other things) lets you have some control over what gets run at startup.
    You can run it from the "Start/Run..." button.
    Hmmm...early versions of Lightroom used to have a separate program that started up with the system and waited for you to insert a card with pictures on it, at which point it would fire up Lightroom. The name was apdproxy.exe . It could be that there's something plugged into a USB port that is triggering that. Removing it from starting by running msconfig, would probably solve your problem. Look for it in the Startup tab.

    Log in to your account, and move all your files to your home folder. No other users should be able to access them there and they won't show up with a Spotlight search.
    Make sure your kids' account(s) do not have admin privileges.

  • When I click on Firefox, the page comes up as "work offline" and I have to uncheck this option under "File" before I can get on line. How can I disable this automatic start option "work offline"?

    Firefox starts up "Work offline" and I am notified "Having trouble loading page." I am then advised to "uncheck" the "work offline" option and "retry" getting connected to the internet. I would like Firefox 4 to automatically come up as a Browser on line, just as 3.6 did. How can I achieve this goal? Is there a way to disable the automatic "offline" start-up?

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
    * Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)
