LIghtRoom color problem vs PhotoShop CS2 on Nikon RAW

I recently bought Adobe Lightroom and I was surprised to notice some huge color differences compared to PhotoShop CS2.
Im using Nikon D80 and shooting RAW. I have calibrated semi-pro monitor.
The same RAW file opens in LightRoom pretty well until you get the rendering preview. Once the preview is done, the picture becomes desaturated in red and blue and has a green cast especially in the shadows with much lower contrast. If I use Edit in PhotoShop option, the picture becomes even worse (even more desaturated and greenish) when opens in PhotoShop. If I open the same RAW in PhotoShop directly (using the NEF plug-in, not CameraRaw!) everything is just fine. The picture looks as opened in Nikon Picture Project or as I saw it when I took the picture.
After doing some research, I think that my problem relates to the way that Adobe Camera RAW, Bridge and LightRoom open a Nikon sRGB 4.0.0.3001 (D80) raw file. However, all the things being equal, PhotoShop CS2 (using the NEF plug-in) renders the same colors as Picture Project does (and what I saw on my camera and in reality). I also noticed that choosing sRGB in Camera Raw bring the things closer to the Picture Project colors but far from identical. Anyways, there is no way to change anything in LightRoom, outer than manually twicking all colors until I think it looks good. Which, I think Is very subjective and is different for every picture.
Right now, my Creative Suite Color Settings is North America General Purpose 2 (synchronized for all CS applications) and no application asks me anything about changing the color profile when opening the file. I shoot (with D80) in raw, Normal camera mode (no saturation / contrast, color profile change). I opened the same file in all mentionned applications (LightRoom, CameraRaw from Bridge, PhotoShop and Picture Project) and save them as .jpeg (same size, dpi, etc.) without changing anything (no camera calibration in ACR or LR; no printer profile in PhotoShop). I sent the .jpegs to my local Costco and printed them on glossy paper. All of them printed the same way that they look on the screen. LR, ACR - desaturated on red&blue, color cast on green and low contrast, while great vivid colors and contrast from PhotoShop and Picture Project. For me it looks pretty much as Adobe applications convert Nikon sRGB into a very unappealing Adobe sRGB (and way different from what I saw in reality). I know this is very subjective; some people may argue that Nikon profile is too reddish and oversaturated. But I find the whole story rather unusual. They all work in the sRGB space and there shouldn't be any differences. I've done lot of testing with color profiles and replacing the Camera Raw plugin file format (common files) with Nicon plugins and vice-versa. But still the same result.
I create a User Profile in LightRoom and I get pretty decent colors now, but when I want to edit the file in PhotoShop (from LightRoom) I get the same green and desaturated version.
What do you think?

>Regarding LR, what I'm looking here is a "factory made" solution; something that can give consistent results in the initial conversion (like Nikon plugin for PhotoShop, for e.g.)
The problem with that conversion is that you cannot change it. In lightroom you change the actual conversion parameters, which gives you far more leeway and allows for far better conversions in the end. Currently (this will change with Lightroom 2.0 apparently) the only recourse you have if you prefer Nikon's colors is to shoot jpeg, or run your NEFs through capture and create 16-bit tiffs. This is just the way it is. A hammer gives a different result than a screwdriver.
>It's hard for me to believe that Adobe has invested so much energy and resources in color profiling but it's unable to get nearly close to the Nikon raw colors.
Nikon's colors are far from colorimetrically correct which you can see in many tests. Here is an example for the D300: http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/D300/D300IMATEST.HTM It is off in the deep reds, the saturated blues, and the Olive-like colors. Profiling the camera does not help you get close to Nikon's colors, but it will get you closer to the ideal colors. I doubt it has been Adobe's goal to get close to the in-camera rendering with Lightroom upto 1.4. They profile all the cameras and make some value judgments on what is more important. Skin tones vs saturated colors etc just like Nikon does.
Regarding getting close to camera colors, there is a trick that you can do to get close to the camera jpeg that involves the ACR calibration scripts. You do need PS CS3 though.
>I find rather strange that apparently there is no way to get professional conversion. This is defying the main purpose of Color Profiling, I think.
Why is Nikon's conversion professional and Adobe's not? They are both just interpretations of the sensor data. Adobe's is actually colorimetrically more correct in many cases. Colorimetrically correct often means boring unfortunately. This has to do with the fact that our eyes are not color measurement devices but that we have brains interpreting the data. To get pleasing results, Color Profiling does not help as much as you'd like. My issue with the in-camera or Nikon software approach is that it locks you down creatively to the
creative choices the Nikon folks made. Now, be aware that in the Lightroom 2.0 forum the Adobe folks have hinted at major changes to the rendering engine that will bring colors closer to the vendor rendering. How they will do this is unknown right now.

Lightroom - Opening Catalog: DSC_1555.jpg.Ircat?

Something took place with my catalog. I tried to switch to a training catalog while Lightroom was operating and the following took place.
Adobe Photoshop Lightroom has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
Click Here for more information.
I can't open Lightroom 3.3 at all. I get this message in black and white - Lightroom - Opening Catalog:Dsc-1555.jpg.Ircat on the screen
I click for more information and get the following.
AppName: lightroom.exe AppVer: 3.3.0.10 ModName: msvcr100.dll
ModVer: 10.0.30319.1 Offset: 0008d635
Please tell me how to fix this problem. First problem I have had!!!!
And yes I did something else stupid. I restored Lightroom using my trial software and now have Lightroom 2 and Lightroom 3.3 installed. That was dumb.
I would appreciate an e-mail from support on this matter, as soon as possible.
Please ignor all the stupidity, and help me to correct the problem. But I did back up my catalog 1/24/11

Can't open Lightroom 3.3 at all. I get this message in black and white - Lightroom - Opening Catalog:_3106660.ORF.lrcat
on the screen. I could not find this file which happen to be one of image file.
Click for more information and get the following.
AppName: lightroom.exe AppVer: 3.3.0.10 ModName: msvcr100.dll
ModVer: 10.0.30319.1 Offset: 0008d635
However, today I did fixed the problem (I think) and LR runs again as it should.
Thank you much to contacted me and tried to help.

Lightroom opens fine initially, but when trying to open a different catalog it will go through the process but never reopen again. I can't get it to open at all until the computer is reset.

Lightroom opens fine initially, but when trying to open a different catalog it will go through the process but never reopen again. I can't get it to open at all until the computer is reset. I have been using Lightroom 4 for 18 months now and this problem just started happening in the last month.

No error messages. It acts totally normal but just never reopens when I try to reopen a new catalog. I create a catalog for each of my clients....I have done this since I started using lightroom as it seems tidy to me. But, I have never had this problem until now. I am using a pc and vista and Lightroom 4. Thanks.

"Lightroom -- Opening Catalog Studio Session-003.JPG.lrcat"

For more than two years I had no problems that were encountered using Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3.2 (which was upgraded to Adobe PS Lightroom 3.6). Until last month I could not open my Lightroom v 3.6. with this message on the screen --- "Lightroom -- Opening Catlog Studio Session-003.JPG.lrcat"
To remove the cause which I believed was in the later version of Lightroom v 3.6, I uninstalled Lightroom v 3.6 and reinstalled the Lightroon v 3.2 from the DVD I purchased more than two years ago.
After reinstalling LR 3.2, I restarted my computer and after that I double-clicked the LR icon giving me this message: “Lightroom – Opening Catalog: Studio Session-003.JPG.lrcat”
In the box I saw this message:
Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64-bit has stopped working A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. Close program

The name of the Catalog file indicates that you have inadvertantly selected a jpeg image file as a name for a new catalog. I am not sure the full and correct way to resolve the issue but I believe it includes removing the offending "inapproprately named catalog file".
Maybe someone else will provide some additional info. In the meantime if you could post a screen capture of the contents of your "user>(your name)my pictures> Lightroom" folder. This will assist.

Lightroom 3 problem

I purchased a new in the box Lightroom 3. When I tried to import a JPG photo from my computer I failed. Now when I try to open the program a small window opens at the top of my monitor saying "lightroom - opening catalog img 4339. jpg Ircat and another window opens below it saying Lightroom has stopped working. I cant open the program Help!!!! Jim Dorsey

How did you try to import a JPG into Lightroom? Seems like you created a catalog with the characters .jpg in the catalog file name, which I'm thinking isn't good. Did you use File->Open Catalog (which isn't good), or File->Import (which is correct)?
To fix the problem, I think you need to delete your preference file and then try restarting LR.
http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/preference-file-locations-lighroom-3.html
But perhaps you need to view some tutorials on basic Lightroom usage, such as this one: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/max-2011-design/lightroom-3-crash-course/
Or this one:

How to find-" Lightroom-opening Catalog: DSC00155.jpeg.ircat" Where is it?

I have downloaded Lightroom When I try to start the software it shows. -" Lightroom-opening Catalog: DSC0024 JPG.Ircat " Then a windows Window opens and said "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64-Bit has stoped working A problem caused this program to stop working correctly Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." ANY Help ??? I cannot start the software.

Did you ever successfully open Lightroom by double-clicking on the Lightroom icon? If so, we can probably advise you what to do next.
Are you trying to open a file (DSC0024.JPG) into Lightroom via right-clicking on the file in your operating system, and selecting some command to try to open into LR? This won't work at all, you can't open JPG (or other image) files that way. Or did you try to associate JPG files with Lightroom, then try to double-click on it and open it? That won't work either. If that's what you did, please let us know, we can advise you on what to do next.
Or, if you did something else, please let us know what you did.

Don and John,
I must be dumber than I could possibly look, but I do thank you both for your help.
Don, I have already checked and un-checked that first check item in "import" under preferences, to no avail. I have crossed refferenced it with my MacBook and regardless of whether it is the same or different the problem still occures.
John, I will admit to being smart enough to change from PC to Mac relatively recently but appear dumb enough to not being able to discover how to set the Mac to do nothing on card insert as you describe.... could you advise please.
Many thanks

You need to delete your preview cache and have Lightroom rebuild it. Cache location can be found here.

I have a monthly subscription for PS and Lightroom.
When I opened Lightroom this morning, it told me an upgrade was available through CC. I probably did something wrong, butI couldn't get it to download.
I came on the forum and read a couple of discussions on your pages and found a reply that posted links to the pages where Lightroom 5.7 could be downloaded.
I clicked the link and downloaded the update fine.
However, now when Lightroom opens, it is asking whether I want to BUY or have a free 30 day trial and won't progress any further into the app.
My CC icon reveals that my software is up to date but I can't get past this register screen, without selecting BUY or FREE 30 TRIAL .
can anyone help please?

Image open problem in nokia 5230

Dear All,
I have nokia 5230 mobile & i am using from last 10 months but from past few days i am facing problem regarding image/songs open problem. whenever i trying to open image my phone gets hang & it shows nothing in it but i have 100 pics in memory card, same problem is with songs whenever i put some songs in memry card but songs gallery after refreshing shows nothing.
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Vipul

im not sure what to do about the images but the same happened with the songs. here is waht i did:
1. make sure you have the latest firmware installed (fw. 50).
2. when it is installed copy all tracks to pc and install nokia ovi music.
3. delete the folder called 'music' on your memory card.
4. open ovi music and add songs to playlists and copy to device. this will create a new folfre called 'music' and the error should be fixed
if that fails you should try a program called lcg jukebox as this is a much better music player

Desktop.open() Problem

I recently put together an application that relied heavily on the Desktop.open( ) method and several other methods from the Desktop class. However, all of a sudden the Desktop.open() does not work. I believe I read some where that this was due to the ShellExecute function or dll or something like that.
However, since my app is targetted at the Windows platform I resorted to using windows Explorer to launch the system default applications for files using a the code below
public static void openFile(File file) {
try {
    Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
    runtime.exec( "explorer.exe \"" + file.getAbsolutePath() + "\"" );
} catch(IOException) {
    ioe.printStackTrace();
    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Could Not Open File Location: " + file.getAbsolutePath());
}The code works as expected, but my problem is that I am loosing cross-platform functionality.
Can any point my to solution to this Desktop.open( ) problem, or probably add the my list platform dependent launch procedures so at least the code works on Windows,Linux and Mac.
ICE

Thanks Andrew,
I've do a more simple example of the problem. I create two files on "\\fiuu\proyectosShared", one called "test.txt" and the other one called "te st.txt". I execute your exact source for the who paths whith these results:
File f = new File("//fiuu/proyectosShared/test.txt");
System.out.println(f + " exists: " + f.exists());
dt.open(f);
RESULT:
\\fiuu\proyectosShared\test.txt exists: true
(notepads opens the file)The second test does'nt work:
File f = new File("//fiuu/proyectosShared/te st.txt");
System.out.println(f + " exists: " + f.exists());
dt.open(f);
RESULT:
\\fiuu\proyectosShared\te st.txt exists: true
Exception in thread "main" java.io.IOException: Failed to open file:////fiuu/proyectosShared/te%20st.txt. Error message: El sistema no puede hallar la ruta especificada.
     at sun.awt.windows.WDesktopPeer.ShellExecute(WDesktopPeer.java:59)

     at java.awt.Desktop.open(Desktop.java:254)
     at DesktopTest.main(DesktopTest.java:14)
(translation of error message: System can't find specified path)I've also done some tests with Desktop.browse(file.toURI), and some others with no success.
Something curious: try to execute Runtime.getRuntime().exec("explorer " + f.getAbsolutePath) for a file that has thow white spaces on his name....
File f = new File("//fiuu/proyectosShared/te st.txt");//with two white spaces
System.out.println(f + " exists: " + f.exists());
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("explorer " + f.getAbsolutePath());
\\fiuu\proyectosShared\te st.txt exists: trueSystem says:

La ruta '\\fiuu\proyectosShared\te st.txt' no existe o no es un directorio.
Aceptar
(spanish version of File not found alert message)Note that in alert message one white space of filename is lost!
Thanks again
