Lightroom 5.5 and HDR Effects pro 2

Just updated to LR 5.5 and when using HDR Effects Pro 2 I select the files for output to HDR Effects, they are sent to the program, I make what changes I need and save the file back to LR. Noticed no LR export file seems to be there to send the output from HDR back to. Since the update I am getting this message but not every time. LR pops up this warning and all changes are lost "unable to export, an internal error occurred: addphoto: no file at path". The frustration is that it is intermittent and like most errors has no explanation. LR 5.4 had no issue with this. Using Win 7 64 bit. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for the quick reply. The following are my system specs. This feature has worked in the past but since upgrading from LR4 to LR5, this feature has stopped working. I can print to a printer, but not to a PDF.
HP Z800 Workstation
Duel Intel Xeon X5670 @ 2.93GHz Processors

It will go through the motions, as if it is creating the PDF, but it doesn't output anything. I've restarted Lightroom and rebooted my system, but nothing seems to help.

Help with PS and HDR Effect Pro from Nik

I altready have a help request into Nik Software, but was hoping someone here could offer some suggestions.
I'm running the Nik Complete software program on Win 7 64Bit, Raid 5 machine. 8800 GTS 512 MB card; 12gb of RAM, i7 quad core, 2.67 GH, PS CS5 and Lightroom 3.2, Wacom Intuos 3 tablet.
I have the most updated drivers for video, wacom tablet. OS is current with updates. PS CS5 is updated, but I am NOT running Lightroom's 3.3 RC.
I updated all software updates for the NIK software collection from their site and still have the same problem even after uninstall and re-install.
When I attempt to run HDR Efect Pro I get the menu window to select my images, click ok and with in seconds I get the message that Adobe Photoshop CS5 has stoopped working and must close...
I've gone to their site and looked into their FAQ/troubleshooting and did all their recommendations, update drivers, look for color profiles with 0 Bytes in the system color spool for both 32 and 64 bit apps and still no luck. This also happens with CS4 and CS3 and if I attempt to use the program form Lightroom and Bridge. Any ideas, work arounds, suggestions? Their automatic reply from my support request says 2-3 days due to the high populaity of their program!!!
Thanks for any and all help.

Outside of suggesting some pretty generic things, I can't offer much help... I don't use Nik products myself
You could try disabling the "Use OpenGL Drawing" setting in Photoshop as a workaround to see if that helps. Perhaps between Photoshop and the plug-in problems are being caused in the OpenGL driver for your particular video card.
Also, given that 3rd party plug-ins and Photoshop could be competing for memory, you could try changing the amount of memory Photoshop is allowed to use in the Edit - Preferences - Performance dialog.
Good luck.

I have lightroom 5.7 and a macbook pro 10.9.5. Occasionally when I am editing a photo in the develop module, I suddenly get a "file not found" message and the editing ceases to work. There is no "exclamation" icon below the histogram box in the Library

I have lightroom 5.7 and a macbook pro 10.9.5. Occasionally when I am editing a photo in the develop module, I suddenly get a "file not found" message and the editing ceases to work. There is no "exclamation" icon below the histogram box in the Library module or on the photo in grid view, and the histogram is gone. What is going on? Trying to find it using the "find missing photos" in the library menu does nothing.

CS6 creates tiled image when moving from LR4 and HDR Effex Pro

Just recently I've had a problem with CS6 where it creates a partial (tiled) image when "Edit In" from LR4 and when saving back to CS6 from HDR Effex Pro. THe image may have one or several retangles which may be black, white, or part of the image that's in the wrong place if that makes any sense. All software is running with current updates. I've had the software about 6 months and never incurred this problem until the last week. Help!

I've run through several scenarios and find that it's always in CS6 that I have the problem. I opened a file in all modules of Nik as well as OnOne's Perfect Photo Suite. When I go back (save) to CS6 there is always a problem. When I save in CS6 and then open up in LR the image is fine. So the file must not be corrupt, it just doesn't present it properly in CS6. The GPU driver appears to be up to date....last update was in 2011 and I've had this computer since late 2012.

Lightroom 5.4 and Acrobat XI Pro - print contact sheet to PDF not working

Lightroom 5.7 and Wacom Inutos Pro - Blots

Hello I have a problem in LR5.7 with my Wacom Intuos Pro S. Most when I'm drawing at the start or end of the painting there will be blots without the sensitivity.
I have just reeinstalled my PC completly, but the problem is not solved. In PSE 13 I have no problems with the Wacom. So the problem must be in LR5.7.
All drivers are actually.
My System:
Win7 64Bit
I7 2600K
8GB RAM 1600
AMD HD 6890.
What can I do?

Try resetting the Wacom Tablet Preferences using the 'Wacom Tablet Preferences Utility.' Click 'Backup' so you can 'Restore' the original Preferences file if the issue isn''t resolved:
NOTE: I suggest removing BOTH 'My Preferences' and 'All User Preferences.'
Next step is to try resetting the LR Preferences file. Rather than delete the current file rename it with a .OLD extension (Lightroom 5 Preferences.agprefs.OLD). That way you can easily restore the original file if the issue persists.

Using Lightroom 4.2 and DXO Optics Pro 7, DXO FilmPack 3, DXO ViewPoint 2. Problem with ViewPoint 2 plug-in.

I am not seeing the plug-ins for DXO ViewPoint. The plug-in is there for FilmPack 3, but not for ViewPoint 2. Any suggestions? Does this have to do with the version of Lightroom, or the version of DXO? Is there something I need to do to make that plug-in appear? Thanks

The only thing that works is to go to Photo, Edit in DxO Viewpoint.
As you'll have seen from the DxO page I linked to above, that's how it's supposed to work:
Select a photo from your Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom® 5 catalog.
Go to the Photo menu and select Edit in > DxO ViewPoint. You can also right-click on the image and select Edit in > DxO ViewPointfrom the context menu.

HDR Effects Pro2 (Nik-Software PlugIn) out of Bridge CC

I want to order HDR Effects Pro2 out of Bridge CC - get an alert: crash - but if I ask to do the same thing not in Photoshop CC, but in CS6 - it works! who knows what to do?
and before the upgrade to Mountain Lion, anything was okay in SnowLeopard

I had the same problem. I'm on a Mac and NIK collection and HDR eFex Pro 2 was showing up under tools in Bridge CS6, but not when I installed Bridge CC. Going to Peferences > Startup Scripts in Bridge CC showed that HDR Efex Pro 2 was not there to be enabled.
Clicking on 'Reveal My Start Up Scripts' showed the HDR Efex Pro 2 Script was not being seen. So the challenge is, how to get the HDR Efex Pro 2 Script into Bridge CC?
Here's what you do. Launch Adobe Bridge CS6. Go to Preferences > Startup Scripts the click on 'Reveal My Startup Scripts. In the folder that appears you should see a file called 'HDR Efex Pro 2.jsx' If so drag it out and copy it to your desktop.
Close down Bridge CS6 and launch Bridge CC. Go to Preferences > Startup Scripts and click on 'Reveal My Start Up Scripts'. Once the folder appears copy the HDR Efex Pro 2.jsx file from your desktop into the Startup Scripts folder, then quit Bridge CC and then relaunch it. You will get a prompt saying that HDR Efex Pro 2 has been added to you Startup Scripts, do you want to enable it, just click 'Yes' and 'Nik Collection' should now appear under 'Tools' in Bridge CC with HDR Efex Pro 2 enabled

Any explanation for frequent crashes on PP CC 2014 and Windows 7 pro?

I've had many problems with crashes using PPCC 2014. I originally downloaded it this summer and it was impossible to work with so I quickly went back to CS6. I've tried it again lately, thinking that maybe some updates could have solved the crash problems.
If my timeline is pretty straightforward and doesn't include 3rd party effects, it seems to be smooth, but I don't think we're fully compatible with many frequently used 3rd party packages...specifically New Blue Transitions.
Has anyone else been having problems with those transitions?
I don't know what I'm going to do. I hope CS6 continues to be supported because I don't think I can realistically switch all my projects to PPCC 2014. It's just too unstable.
My specs:
Windows 7 Pro (64bit)
i7 950 @ 3.07GHz
24 GB ram
Nvidia Quadro 4000
Third party software:
New Blue transitions and video effects
Pro Dad, stabilizer, transitions and video effects
Magic Bullet Looks, Mojo, Universe
Would love to hear from others about any like problems, or be steered to the right thread.
Thanks so much.

I was getting this same error/crash - it started right after I did the most recent update about 3 days ago
since then I can export to media and it randomly crashes while using the program
(windows 7, 8gb, laptop, i7, 2.00ghz, premiere pro cc 2014.2 8.2.0 Build (65))
well I'm not sure if this is a fix or not but it worked for me been up and running all day today with no crashes and have exported to media on several decent sized projects
so after some reading I went to
preferences>memory and changed it from performance to memory
and then also changed my "ram reserved for other applications" to it's lowest setting (mine was 1.5gb) which opened up .5 gb of memory for premiere pro (now 6.5gb)
again been working all day when it was crashes quite frequently (after the last update)
hope this helps someone!

I started a creative cloud student membership but Premiere Pro and After Effects are not in the app

I started a creative cloud student membership but Premiere Pro and After Effects are not in the app and won't download from the adobe website, all that happens is that the creative cloud app opens and sends me to the list of programs available for download which still do not contain Premiere Pro and After Effects

Premiere Pro and After Effects are 64 bit only apps.
They require a 64 bit computer and a 64 bit operating system.
If you're running Windows 7 32 bit or Windows 8 32 bit then you will not be able to download, install or run Premiere Pro or After Effects.
See http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/faq.html#desktop-products
Which desktop applications in Creative Cloud require 64-bit operating systems?
With the new CC apps, most of the pro video and audio applications now require 64-bit operating systems to run. These native 64-bit applications include Adobe Premiere® Pro CC, Adobe Audition® CC, After Effects® CC, Prelude® CC, and SpeedGrade® CC. Flash Professional CC, Photoshop CC and Lightroom® also require 64-bit on Mac OS.

Is there a way to create a pan and zoom effect in a lightroom slideshow?

Is there a way to create a pan and zoom effect in a lightroom slideshow?

Nope. Be a great feature. For that I use FotoMagico after exporting JPEG's from LR.

I need to reinstall my computer, how do I deal with Premiere pro and After effects?

Hello,
As my question states I need to reinstall my computer (laptop) and I'm not quite sure on how to deal with Premiere pro and After effects.
I am thinking that I need to do some sort of backup and save my projects and footage on a sepparate drive.
If I reinstall my computer, install my creative suit production premium, and move back all of my projects and footage, won't I have to re-link every single clip?
I am currently workning on several different projects and having to re-link everything is something I don't even want to think about, that would take me days if not weeks.
Another option on my mind would be to use Creative cloud. I do have the free version but I have never used it even once before and I'm not quite sure what the purpose of the cloud is and if this is a way to use it.
I have no idea how to go about this computer reinstalation without either loosing tons of work or having to re-link every single clip used.
I am videoediting only as a hobby so I have no experience working with other people and sharing projects or the like, wich is my understanding of what the cloud is for.
Any and all help would be grealty appreciated, I know this is probably really easy but ever since i got my Suit I haven't reinstalled, upgraded och changed my computer so I am just clueless as to how to go about this.
I have Creative suit production premium, I also have the free Creative cloud.
It is only Premiere pro and After effects that I am using and am worried about.
Thank you for any help.

Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects CS5.5 Lagging Horribly with Dynamic Link

I just bought a brand new computer. It is a beast
Windows 7 64-bit
Intel i7-980 6 cores with HT = 12 CPU cores
Nvidia GTX 570HD 1280mb 328 bit
120gb SSD sata 3
600 gb Velociraptor drive 10000rpm
8gb DDR3 1866MHZ ram
So you would think I would get no lag. But for some reason, when I edit in premier pro or after effects, especially when I use dynamic link with premiere and after effects. It lags realllllly badly. I am talking about 5fps and I have to pause and wait like 20 secs then hit play again to get 5 secs of smoothness and then the laggyness returns. I am not even using heavy footage. It is footage off of a Canon 5D Mark II h.264. I tried messing around with all the settings but I cannot get anywhere. Anyone know what the problem might be? I don't have any other programs running since I just installed these. This lag is really holding me back and I cannot edit properly because of it.

Your memory is ill configured, since you are using it in dual channel mode instead of triple channel mode and 8 MB is about bare minimum. You would be better off if you were to increase memory to 24 GB. Secondly, your disk configuration is the absolute minimum requirement, so adding a couple of disks will help performance as well.

Mistake. It is one of the most demanding codecs on the market. Look here: Adobe Forums: System requirements for CS5
You could try the PPBM5 Benchmark to see how well your setup performs.

Nikon D7000 .MOV files in Premiere Pro and After Effects CS5.5

I recently upgraded from Production Premium CS5 to CS5.5. Initially Nikon D7000 .MOV files used in previous CS5 Premiere Pro project would not play well in CS5.5. Now .MOV files do work in both PP and AE CS5.5. Here are the steps I followed. Not recommending you follow my steps exactly, just providing info for those that are interested.
1.       Launch Premiere Pro CS5.5 and open previous PP CS5 project, convert project to CS5.5 and rename project file as not to replace previous CS5 project file.
a.       At this point .MOV files do not play in new project or in AE CS5.5
b.      Close Premiere Pro and After Effect if still running.
2.       Using Adobe Bridge CS5.5, batch rename;
a.       Make copies of original files to new folder location while renaming file extension from .MOV to .mpg
b.      Let Adobe Bridge finish creating all new thumbnail previews.
c.       Leave Bridge running in background.
3.       Launch Premiere Pro CS5.5, let Premiere finish recreating thumbnail previews if needed.
a.       Attempt to preview existing .MOV file in project. It worked for me.
b.      Attempt to play sequence containing .MOV files. It worked for me.
c.       Attempt to play or modify sequence .MOV files in AE CS5.5 via Dynamic Link within Premiere. It worked for me.
d.      Close Premiere Pro project and AE projects if open.
4.       Create new Premiere Pro project and sequence
a.       Import a different Nikon D7000 .MOV file not previously used or renamed.
b.      Attempt to play this newly imported .MOV file. This worked for me as well.
c.       The new, previously un-renamed .MOV file also worked in AE CS5.5 for me.
I will perform additional tests but at the moment Nikon D7000 .MOV files are working for me in CS5.5 after initially performing a batch rename in Bridge CS5.5 from .MOV to .mpg and letting Bridge create preview files. Even .MOV files not renamed now work.
An example of Nikon D7000 footage edited with Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5, After Effects CS5.5, and Sound Booth CS5 can be seen on my blog, http://stevelandonsmyth.typepad.com/steve-landon-smyths-blog/2011/07/my-first-hd -video-shoot-with-nikon-d7000.html

Hello,
I see 2 post in this thread from Todd that say they are working on a fix and it should be out soon. One is from July, the other from August. It is now Sept 7th and I still see no patches or fixes for any bugs. I spent 400 dollars on an upgrade, but is this upgrade going to be supported?
This is making me rethink upgrading to the .5's in the future.
It is a minor bug to most, but in that sense it should be an easy quick fix. Am I wrong? Is this really a complicated issue?
I apologize if this comes off like a rant, but thats kinda what it is. It is not hard to batch rename files, but its a pain to have to relink all those files in PP.

I have a sony handy cam model HDR-HC1 and a mac pro running osx10.9.3, are they compatible? as far as downloading movies from my handy cam. thanks in advance

i have a sony handy cam model HDR-HC1 and a mac pro running osx10.9.3, are they compatible? as far as downloading movies from my handy cam. thanks in advance. If not, is there a different route i can take to get those recordings in to my mac pro?

See if the cam shows up under Devices in the Image Capture app.
Image Capture is located in your Applications folder.
Launch Image Capture then connect the camera.
The camera should show up under Devices top left side of the Image Capture window.
Now look at the bottom left side of the window. Click the: Connecting this (device) opens: pop up menu and select an application to import your photos.
You can also select a folder to import photos from the Import To: pop up menu.
Selet the photos you want to import then click Import or Import All on the right.
