Lightroom and Photoshop Elements 12 transfer/sharing problem'

I'm new to Adobe Lightroom 5 and Photoshop Elements 12.   I open a Lightroom image in Photoshop Elements 12 by using Photo-->Edit In--> PSE12.  I make a change in PSE12, and then "save."  I understand that I'm supposed to overwrite the default file name.  But, when I go back to LR, my PSE changes are not saved.  What am I doing wrong?

I noticed the same problem when I upgraded to elements 12 in december. Also using LR 5.3 on mac running 10.8.5. When using the save command in PSE usually the saved file was not visible in LR. I posted in the forum then without any positive responses. As I worked the problem myself  I noticed that when saving from PSE if I used the "save as" command instead of the "save" command and then answered in the affirmative to overwrite the existing file the edits would save back to LR without fail. I have been using this technique for the last 6 weeks or so and haven't had any edits fail to return to LR. I have no idea why this would fix the problem as all the instructional material says not to use the save as command. I suspect it is a bug in PSE12 but because it's "only" elements no one at adobe is paying any attention. Anyway, try that and see if it solves your problem. It worked for me although I can't explain why.

    Hi I have the old photo shop elements 10 on my computer and want to update and was wondering what the differences between photoshop, lightroom and photoshop elements are?
    Also when I upgrade does it have to be with a monthly membership or can I just purchase the product out right like you use to be able?

    You cannot "update" from what you have to any of the applications you mention. It will have to be a straight purchase or subscription at full price.
    Photoshop is a professional level application that makes no apologies for its very long and steep learning curve.
    Lightroom is all about volume, and very light editing.

  • How can I syncronize Lightroom and Photoshop Elements data?

    How can I syncronize Lightroom and Photoshop Elements data?

    Hi Palsaran,
    As i understood, your requirement is to POST data from UI to backend.
    The above code you given is not correct if you want to use model based implementation.
    In UI5 you don't need to do an explicit Ajax call, for which we can use Models like OData, JSON etc.
    For your JSON example, you can use like,
    var oModel = new sap.ui.model.json.JSONModel();
    var oData = "YOUR JSON DATA";
    oModel.setData(oData)
    oModel.loadData(yourURL/Entityset,"POST");
    For ref, you can use the below link
    JsDoc Report - SAP UI development Toolkit for HTML5 - API Reference - sap.ui.model.json.JSONModel
    Thanks

  • Catalog sharing between Lightroom and Photoshop Elements

    Can the catalog be shared between Lightroom 2 and Photoshop Elements 10?

    Lightroom and PSE cannot share catalogs (although the same image can be in both)
    PSE catalogs can be upgraded to Lightroom catalogs, but then changes made in Lightroom are not reflected in PSE. You cannot go the other way, Lightroom catalogs cannot be converted to PSE catalogs.
    Lastly, I strongly recommend that you use only a single "organizing" application. The idea of using two (or more) different "organizing" applications will lead to confusion and errors and lack of synchronization.

  • How to install Lightroom and Photoshop Elements from my old pc to my new pc?

    I have a new pc and want to install Lightroom 5.7 and Photoshop Elements 12 from my old pc to the new one.

    For LR here is a useful link:
    http://www.lightroomqueen.com/how-move-lightroom-to-new-computer/
    There is also a video tutorial which covers moving a LR catalog to a new computer:
    http://tv.adobe.com/watch/the-complete-picture-with-julieanne-kost/how-to-migrate-lr-to-an other-computer/
    For Elements you can simply install the application and then set up the Elements Editor for external editing in the LR Library prefs. I’m assuming you won’t be using Oranizer as well as LR. That can lead to confusion and broken links unless you are very disciplined.
    If you do intend to use Organizer the method is backup and restore, starting with an Organizer backup on the old PC.

  • Link between lightroom and photoshop elements

    Hello.
    A few days ago I installed photoshop elements 6 on my Leopard 10.5.3 instance. I have also Lightroom 1.4.1 installed, but he/she doesn't seem to detect the elements installation. I can't do an edit in photoshop.
    With which mechanism the Lightroom program detects if there is any photoshop installed?
    Should I use the alternative editor path to call Elements 6? And if so, will I have the same functionality then?
    Is the direct link only there for CSx?
    In order to test in a "clean" environment, I have made a fresh installation of Leopard, Photoshop Elements and Lightroom on an external disk, but even then Lightroom doesn't detect Elements 6.
    However, if I install Photoshop Elements 4, everything works fine.
    Any help is much appreciated!!
    Marc.
    PS: this tech note doesn't help me - www.adobe.com/go/kb401629.

    Kenny,
    1) There are known problems of LR not recognizing Photoshop CS / PSE automatically as present. Uninstalling and reinsalling PSE might help.
    If now successful, and if you're on a windows system, adding the following key to your registry might solve the problem:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe]
    @="C:\\Program Files\\Adobe\\Photoshop Elements 8.0\\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
    "Path"="C:\\Program Files\\Adobe\\Photoshop Elements 8.0"
    2) You can have as many external editors as you like. Go to Preferences/External Editing, setup the executable and format you want to pass to it, then do a "Save Current Settings as New Preset". This will establish an additonal external editor for LR.

  • Colors are different between Lightroom and Photoshop Elements

    I have a new monitor and I have the SyderPro4 calbration software.  My monitor is the Dell UltraSharp U2713HM.  When calibrated with the Syder my colors are different when I go into different programs.  The same photo looks different in Lightroom than it does in Photoshop Elements. When I export the picture from Lightroom to Elements the picture becomes very orange. I have already talked to Dell and to Datacolor about my issue and they both are telling me this shouldn't be happening. When I uninstall my calibration software my problem goes away, and the colors of the images stay consistant between the two programs. Does anybody have any advice to what maybe wrong?

    I am having this problem too.
    my site www.redsmartie.com looks fine on everyone elses computer but on mine the red background #660000 is not displaying right on the jpg images
    see here http://homepage.mac.com/redsmartie/colourerror.png
    I have rgb colour profiles managed by a Pantone Huey device and haven't previously noted a problem. This was added recently so I recreated the images which corrected things on my screen but made the red around the images too dark for everyone else.
    The images were created in Photoshop so I changed the photoshop profile back to CinemaDisplay that it previously was on and now everyone else is ok but my screen shows the red around the images much to light.
    I really need some help with this as its a disaster waiting to happen on work I do for other people, especially if I'm producing work that looks right on my setup but is wrong for everyone else!

    How do you export to Elements? Directly from Lightroom? If so, what profile are you choosing? What resolution are you specifying? I normally use proPhoto RGB which is the profile that LR more or less uses internally and 330.

  • Im having an issue with my newly installed Lightroom and Photoshop Elements working together.

    I want to edit Lightroom photos in PSE-13 (merge to pano) but it says that "The files could not be edited because Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor could not be Launched."  I see a lot of people have had this issue, but I don't have any reason to believe that there is one KNOWN solution.  Even two photos won't merge in PSE-13.  can you help?

  • Difference of Photoshop Lightroom and Photoshop Elements

    I'm using PSE5 since some years, starting with PSE2 already. On the first look LR seams to have more or less the same features as PSE, but better suited for professional users. What would be the arguments for changing from PSE to LR and is there a comparison available of this to products? Has someone experience migrating from PSE to

    My oppinion, as a "former" PSE7 user:
    The library in LR (organizer in PSE) offers much more functions like filtering, collections, smart collections, compare view, ...
    The development workflow in LR is much more logical, by having all the different development tools in one panel, one after the other in the sequence in which one usually goes thru changing a picture
    The way of non-destructive editing is a big advantage over changing and saving the image after change. One has to get used to this though, because it's a different concept
    One big thing PSE does not have is the adjustment brush, I've been using Nik Viveza for that in PSE, which I rarely use anymore now.
    All together, LR to me seems much more straight forward and logical to work with pictures than PSE. I've been using LR for 3 months now and I really love working with it, it's well worth the money. I rareley ever go back into PSE again, unless performing functions that LR does not have, like scene cleaner, Photomerge panorama etc.
    I've invested quite some time watching LR videos to understand how to work with it.

  • Blotchy image in Lightroom and Photoshop/difficulty waking from sleep

    I am suddenly having problems with my 15" 2.4ghz MacBook Pro. There are two problems actually, the first is that I am not looking at gradient colours when I open an image in Photoshop or view it in Lightroom. The image looks blotchy, almost as if I had set my monitor to 256 colours, when in fact my monitor setting is 1440 x 900 at MILLIONS of colours. I don't have this problem with every image, only those I'm viewing in Lightroom and Photoshop.
    The second problem is in waking my Mac from sleep, sometimes it just won't wake up and I have to do a forced shutdown and then re-start.
    Does anyone know a fix for either problem?

    *A few suggestions:*
    Change the energy saving options, to put the display to sleep and the computer to sleep at the same time.
    Enable (check mark) put the hard disk to sleep when possible.
    Lock the padlock.
    Optional: Repair permissions &/or restart.

    Check your Energy Saver settings to make sure they are correct.

  • Photoshop Elements 12 and Lightroom transfer/sharing problem

    I'm new to Adobe Lightroom 5 and Photoshop Elements 12.   I open a Lightroom image in Photoshop Elements 12 by using Photo-->Edit In--> PSE12.  I make a change in PSE12, and then "save."  I understand that I'm supposed to overwrite the default file name.  But, when I go back to LR, my PSE changes are not saved.  What am I doing wrong?

    I have LR 5 and PSE 12 and the interaction works fine for me. When I select the Edit in PSE option in LR, a TIFF file is created in LR, which is then being opened in PSE. Once done with editing in PSE, I choose Save, which brings me the overwrite file dialog and the TIFF file save settings dialog (compression, etc.) afterwards. Once saved, the TIFF is visible in LR with the changes.
    Here's a question - when you open the TIFF file you just saved from PSE in PSE again, do you see the changes ? If not, the problem is in PSE not saving the changes correctly.
    If you do, the problem is with the file not being shown properly in LR. Check the file structure in an external tool (Windows explorer or Finder). Do you see the TIFF file ? Is there only one or perhaps some others with the beginning of the file name ? What is the file save date on the TIFF(s) ? That might give a clue as to what can be wrong with the process.

  • New Mac: Why are CC and Photoshop Elements not working when Lightroom and Reader are fine

    Last week I changed computers (swapping an old Mac for a 13-in MacBook Pro Retina running OSX Yosemite 10.10.3. I copied all my data over to the new machine using Migration Assistant.
    All programs work fine (including my copy of Lightroom 3 and Reader XI). But my CC and Photoshop Elements 10 do not. I have tried uninstalling both, but whenever I try to reinstall PE10 from its disk or download it just stops almost at the end. I then I get an "initiation failed" message, along with a request to download the now defunct "Support Advisor" app!
    I cannot download Adobe Application Manager, or the CC desktop app either - for the former I get an "initiation failed" message, along with the "download Support Advisor" app" message again! For the latter I get a message saying "Adobe Creative Cloud Is Needed to Resolve this problem - however it is missing or damaged." Then I get a message and a link to download Creative Cloud. Then when I've downloaded it and I click on the installer... it runs for a bit and then I get the message again: "Adobe Creative Cloud Is Needed to Resolve this problem - however it is missing or damaged." And I get a prompt and link to download the CC app. Guess what happens next? And so it goes on. And on and on, in a tedious circle.
    This is incredibly annoying and frustrating as I have work to do! Anyone have any ideas what's happening?
    Cheers

    Yes you can. In iPhoto create a Album with the photos you want in it. You can drag them from your Events folder. In iTunes with your iPad connected go to Photos by cliking on your iPad. You can then select the album or events you want.
