Lightroom colours differ from Photoshop Bridge

RAW images in Lightroom 2.0 are discoloured and totally different from Photoshop Bridge4 display.
Please advise

Could be a corrupt monitor profile. Try killing it temporarily and seeing if the both become the same.

  • Some colours change from Photoshop to Illustrator in Swatches saved in Exchange format

    When I save a colour swatch in Photoshop Extended CS3 in the .ase format and load it into Illustrator CS3, some of the colours change completely - e.g. a bright orange #ffbb29 (in Ps) appears as a pale grey blue #B2BACE (in Ai). The problem seems to be with the use of upper or lower case - if the orange is question is saved as #FFBB29, it appears correctly in Illustrator (although bizarrely this seems to only affect some colours that feature (hex) letters).
    Is there a way of getting Photoshop to automatically give the values in upper case? I know I could just retype them all, but it would take ages (I use Swatches all the time) and it kind of defeats the whole Exchange idea. Or is there another way round the problem? My colour settings are synched (via Bridge) across CS3 Design Premium. Thanks in advance.

  • Edit In doesn't work in Lightroom 5.5 from Photoshop CC 2014

    Edit In doesn't work in Lightroom 5.7.1 from Photoshop CC 2014 even after uninstalling and reinstalling both LR and PS (2014.2.2). Suggestions?

    Thanks for your response. When you choose "edit in PS" in LR, PS will open but the file from LR never opens. I had this problem before and uninstalling LR and PS then reinstalling fixed the problem. The problem has returned and the above solution does not work. I even used "Adobe CC Cleaner Tool" from Adobe to now avail. Opening PS first does not help.
    Also the Automate->Photmerge function no longer works. Maybe Adobe will be able to help on when tech support is available on Monday.

  • Colours differ from Lightroom to Photoshop

    Hello,
    Can someone tell me how it is possible that when I edit an image in Lightroom, it is much brighter and more saturated in Photoshop, than in Lightroom? Is it because you chose a colourspace? Is there a different colour-engine-source?
    Is it Windows Vista that handles colours different? Because it seems to me that the Windows photogalery has more or less the same colours than lightroom. When I put one of them as a wallpaper on my desktop, they seem to have more distinct colours.

  • How can I integrate metadata and keywords in Lightroom with those in Photoshop, Bridge, and Photoshop Elements? In other words, is there a way to retrieve common metadata templates from all modules? Thanks!

    Keyword and Metadata Integration throughout Adobe Modules

    Thanks! That's helpful.
    What I mean by "common metadata", is a unified, updated, most current metadata, which I could update in each program. That is without overwriting the metadata, but appending new keywords to the metadata I created in the previous program.
    I use Bridge, then Lightroom and finally Photoshop. That's the regular workflow: Bridge for preliminary sorting and and adding some keywords; Lightroom for organizing and picking the best images; finally, Photoshop for processing. I got Photoshop Elements on trial. Doesn't work for my purposes.
    I need to share and update the metadata / keywords when I go from one program into another. Can't retrieve metadata I set up in Bridge into Lightroom. Same happens with Photoshop, where I can't retrieve keywords I add in Lightroom. It's tedious to write up the keywords again.
    Thanks for your efforts!

  • CMYK values differ from PhotoShop

    Why are the CMYK values for a given RGB color differ in kuler

  • Colours differ from screen when printing

    Together with my Mac I bought Photoshop Elements9.  When printing the colours between the screen and the actual phot are vastly different. The printed colours are much darker.
    My printer is a HP Photosmart D5460 which I have been using with my Photoshop Elements 6 and a laptop before and never had any colour problems.
    Please can anybody help me.

    Is your monitor calibrated? For one thing, the current macs usually come with the monitor set to be very, very bright. Try reducing the brightness of the monitor and see if that helps. Also, be sure that you aren't double-managing color. Start by trying with the color management option in PSE set to Printer Manages Color, then make all your color, ink, paper, etc. choices in the OS X print dialog that opens AFTER you click Print in the Print window in PSE. If you decide then to try letting PSE manage color, make sure you turn color management off in the OS X print window.

  • Uploaded image colours different to photoshop

    Hi, I've never had this experience before, however I started using lightroom 3 and photoshop CS4, and the colour calibration from photoshop to uploading is completely different. The only way past it is I've found to screen dump it, then save it as a png, yet the colours are still very distraughted .

    Slightly better then the last but the colours are still completely wrong. The colours are fine when I send the picture over by email to someone, the colours are also fine in programs like word, paint and fax viewer (which you would expect to have no colour correction).
    For the first image I showed, I combined it together, then I cropped it, saved it as a jpeg, and it still had the distraughted colours, I had to save it in png. I can't directly save it as a png because the colours are still distraugted :/
    All browsers I've tried have done it, as on my friends computer. We've tried Firefox, chrome, internet explorer and oprah, ff on linux also.
    Photos have been 16 bit modified to 8 bit, however, I've done that plenty of times in the past and its made no difference to the colours. 2nd image is 16 bit png and still weird :/
    I've also tried to upload them to about 5 differnet sites, (facebook, devientart, flickr, imageshack & photo.net gallery). Attachments also do not look fine (however attachments for other sites do :/ *is very stumped*
    Please help. *note, 1st image was edited in lightroom > cs4 > cs3*
    Thank you

    Both images are RGB, I think it might be something to do wiht lightroom, since when I import it into lightroom to CS4 save it and then go into CS3. Colour space is RGB, and both pictures have been converted into 8 bit, however, wihtout the conversion, they still have the desaturated colours.
    Before I was using Adobe CS3 and the in built RAW photo editor, which has been fine. Ever since I've been using lightroom / CS4 combination (I switched both programs at the exact same time), its been a problem. However some images have a greater effect then others (for black and white you hardly notice).
    Would it have something to do with the rendering mode in lightroom? Since I do not have the correct graphics drivers to render in CS4 because my fan doesn't work in my GPU...its holding on till I get a new one, barely...

  • Photoshop to Lightroom Colour Shift

    Hi all,
    I've recently upgraded from CS5 to CC after purchasing a Nikon D7100 over christmas and thus needing the latest versions fro RAW support (Nikon NEF).
    My problem is I am experiencing colour shift between Photoshop and Lightroom after upgrading. I have set Lightroom to use 16-bit ProPhoto RGB images when editing in Photoshop.  My computer is a Late 2012 MacMini with an Apple Thunderbolt Display.
    I originally posted this in the Photoshop forum and have moved it over here after being recommended to do so.
    The image below shows the problem, where the colour is correct in Photoshop, but not in Lightroom.
    In the other thread we went through the motions and eliminated:
    D7100 Camera Raw Profile
    Lens profile
    Screen calibration and profile
    It seems most likely at this point that Lightroom is applying some kind of alterations to the image settings. If I Right Click a problem image in lightroom and say "edit in photoshop with lightroom adjustments" that colours appear incorrect in photoshop, too.
    Can anyone make any suggestions here?  I can't seem to get anything I shot last weekend out of lightroom with the correct colours!
    Thanks,
    Dan.

    A “raw” HDR image has darks that are too dark to see detail in and lights that are too bright to see any detail in.  The process of “tone mapping” is what scrunches all the floating point values into the normal range of black to white.  Once an image is tone mapped its pixel values all fall into the range of zero to whatever the maximum value is for white in a 16-bit or 8-bit format and it can be saved as such.  The 32-bit floating point image is supposed to be temporary on the way to an 8- or 16-bit image.  Personally I save the original 32-bit image in a separate file from the tone-mapped 16- or 8-bit image so I can always go back and revisit the tone mapping operation.
    LR supports 32-bit images otherwise you would see nothing.  Here is a discussion about why things look different that includes Eric Chan, an Adobe Raw Engineer, to someone bringing up a similar concern a little over a year ago:
    ttp://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/lightroom_preview_of_hdr_tonemapped_i mage_doesnt_match_what_is_shown_in_photoshop_acr
    It used to be that Photoshop was the only Adobe product that could open 32-bit files and tone-map them to 16- or 8-bits and I would argue that it did an unsatisfying job.  Eventually this capability was added to LR and the ACR plug-in for Photoshop which does a better job, but being raw converters, the starting point looks brighter on screen.
    Photomatix is a payfor product that also does a good job with both merging and tone-mapping to 16- or 8-bits.  It comes with both a standalone and a plug-in interface.  There are others, but Photomatix is the one I’ve tried in the past.

  • Shadows differ in Photoshop vs Lightroom

    SUMMARY: Photos saved in Adobe RGB (1998) from Photoshop has much better shadow performance than the same unmodified image in Lightroom. Artifacts pop up deep down in the shadows, despite the rest of the image is rendered almost identical in the two programs. I can not find a way around the issue, and I wonder what it is?
    DESCRIPTION:
    I have scanned photos at high resolution (profiled by inCamera), which are treated and optimized in Photoshop CS3 and then saved as JPEG quality 12 in Adobe RGB to be imported into Lightroom 1.3.1 on a MacBook Pro. (I don't want to use TIFF since those are more than 100 MB each, whereas the JPGs are just under 10MB.)
    In Lightroom, I make sure there are no develop settings being applied by using the preset called Zeroed. But since Lightroom has touched the image, metadata is changed and written to the file, and when I reopen the image in Photoshop, it invokes CameraRaw! A bit strange, but I guess it is because LR has written some metadata to it, although all the develop settings are zero(?)
    Except for those deep shadows, the image look identically in Photoshop and Lightroom, so profiles appear ok. My monitor is a good one: SpectraView 2690 profiled by Gretag eye-one and SpectraView Profiler 4.1.7 (same as basiccolor).
    Shadows are deep, and have been lifted in photoshop, so they are a bit noisy and grainy, and it is really critical to get those right without artifacts. When zooming to 1:1, and just looking at a deep shadow section, it is obvious that the carefully balanced noise and black point settings are being mangled by Lightroom, creating blotchy artifacts and color casts.
    To make sure it was not a cache issue, I deleted all previews, thereby forcing LR to rebuild them, and I also restarted the machine. It is also pretty strange that the shadows look different in the Library module from the Develop module!?
    The following are links to screen captures of that dark section (PNG images, between 600 and 800 kB each):
    (These are dark, so close everything brighter than mid gray on your screen, otherwise you won't see much. The images are in Adobe RGB, but it doesn't really matter if you see them with the correct profile or not, since the important and strange thing is that they are different. The best is of course if you download and view them in Photoshop.)
    In Photoshop: http://photo.bragit.com/pics/Shadow_LR_PS/PS.png
    In Lightroom, Library module: http://photo.bragit.com/pics/Shadow_LR_PS/LR_L.png
    In Lightroom, Develop module: http://photo.bragit.com/pics/Shadow_LR_PS/LR_D.png
    Lightroom uses Perceptual rendering intent, and claims to be using ProPhoto internally.
    To see if I could change settings in Photoshop to make it look like Lightroom (just for testing purposes), I changed the color settings in Photoshop to perceptual and also tried the Apple CMM instead of Adobe (ACE). But that didn't make any difference.
    To see if the reason Lightroom makes it bad is caused by a roundtrip to ProPhoto, I converted the image in Photoshop into ProPhoto, and then to my monitor profile; but also in this case it didn't make any difference.
    QUESTION:
    So, there must be something else causing this.
    What is it?
    I want Photoshop to be the norm, and don't like Lightroom inventing shadow casts of its own. But I want to make slide shows and prints from Lightroom...

    The way to prevent this is to NOT use a preset. Lightroom will not apply any settings to non-RAW files. Second, you should NOT enable "automatically write metadata to xmp" as you appear to have done in Catalog Settings. This will ensure that Lightroom will not touch your originals and will make Lightroom much faster.

When zooming to 1:1, and just looking at a deep shadow section, it is obvious that the carefully balanced noise and black point settings are being mangled by Lightroom, creating blotchy artifacts and color casts.
    Probably a rendering intent issue (see below)
    >It is also pretty strange that the shadows look different in the Library module from the Develop module!?
    This is due to the fact that Library uses a preview jpeg that is generated from your file in adobeRGB. You do NOT see the actual data in Library. In develop, Lightroom renders the file into prophotoRGB. Perceptual rendering into the monitor profile from prophotoRGB will give different results than perceptual from adobeRGB, even if you have the same absolute color data. This is why you want to have no perceptual rendering intent defined in your monitor profile (see below)
    >Lightroom uses Perceptual rendering intent
    Indeed, and this is how it differs from Photoshop. You cannot setup Photoshop to use perceptual rendering for the screen profile. If your monitor profile has both intents, your display will differ between Photoshop and Lightroom. To get rid of this recalibrate using your profiler, making sure you only create a relative colorimetric intent, forcing Lightroom to go through that.
    >To see if the reason Lightroom makes it bad is caused by a roundtrip to ProPhoto, I converted the image in Photoshop into ProPhoto, and then to my monitor profile; but also in this case it didn't make any difference.
    Apart from the fact that Lightroom doesn't use prophotoRGB but uses a linear version of prophoto (i.e. a color space with prophotoRGB primaries and a linear gamma instead of 1.8), you should get similar results if you use perceptual rendering when you convert into your monitor profile. Lightroom uses the exact same color engine as Photoshop, so if you set it up correctly, you should get almost identical results.
    Lastly, many of these differences seen between photoshop and Lightroom are caused by corrupt monitor profiles. Many of these are canned profiles from the monitor manufacturer. Trash them and never touch them again. Only use profiles from a hardware calibrator. Also, make sure your graphics card driver is up-to-date. Lots of these problems are caused by outdated graphics drivers.

    I have a Adobde CC account but when i open the app to download the different software, i have illustrator, indesign, photoshop, bridge to install but premiere pro, after effects, lightroom, etc. to "test"...???
    Before (2-3 monate before) i had no problem to access to lightroom & after effetcs...help me please. Thx

    That's okay , besides I got nothing to do lol hehehe atleast I can make myself useful for someone else hehe
    1)Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc and look for file named hosts inside etc folder.
    2)Copy the hosts file to Desktop and open the same with notepad.
    Check with the hosts file entries , let me know if there are any Adobe entries like 127.0.01 xxx.,adobe.com .activate.adobe.com....etc?
    If there are no Adobe entries in Hosts file .
    If you wish , you may uinstall and reinstall the app .
    You may try below steps :
    Open Control Panel and Navigate to Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features .
    Under Program and Features list, locate Adobe Creative Cloud and uninstall it.
    End all Adobe related Tasks from Task Manager.
    Open C:drive and navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe.
    Open Adobe folder and delete folders named Adobe Application Manager and OOBE.
    Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe.
    Open Adobe folder and if present delete Adobe Creative Cloud folder.
    Press Windows button (located between Ctrl and Alt buttons) along with R button together at a time , you will get a run command window.
    Type in below command and hit 'Enter' key.
    appdata
    Then navigate to Local>Adobe.

    Once the installation process is completed , sign in and check.
    Still same issue ?? let me know

  • Can Lightroom invoke the same Photoshop functions as Bridge can?

    Bridge has a tools menu with a Photoshop item sub-menu. It can invoke a number of Photoshop functions such as "Image Processor" and Auto "batch" functions on a selection of images from within Bridge. Does Lightroom also have this capability?

    Lightroom replaces the functions of many Photoshop batch capabilities, with its own Export and Publish and Print to JPG features. The usual expectation for a LR user, would be, that Lightroom carries out the creation of different sized JPG versions etc. It is in some ways more efficient and economical at this than Photioshop is.
    The specific batch tools you mention, are in effect scripted extensions of PS which I don't believe LR can access. In any case, the images that LR itself manipulates may include entities that Photoshop tools could never access, for example Virtual Copies.
    That said, it is possible to reference a Photoshop Action in a "droplet" file, add this droplet to a list where Lightroom can see it, and then invoke this as a postprocessing step as part of a batch Export initiated by Lightroom. So, if you are creating a set of JPG (TIFF, whatever) images which need standard treatment as far as resizing, colourspace etc but also that need some kind of a standardised Photoshop operation to happen, this is a way to do it.
    The PS postprocessing in this scheme, happens only to a brand-new, separate,  exported file. If you want PS to modify the master image as viewed in LR, then you are getting more into LR's standard external editing function instead - which is done image by image (and which similarly spins off a new image version and new file saved on disk). Any file-changing editing of the type that Photoshop does, it completely at odds with the nondestructive approach of Lightroom - like chalk and cheese, and this is reflected in the quite compartmented workflow under which these happen.

  • Trying to open Adobe Bridge from Photoshop CC 2014 will launch Creative Cloud

    As written in the subject, I have the problem that Bridge doesn't start anymore since updating to Photoshop CC 2014.
    Instead the creative Cloud desktop application is launched and tries to reinstall Bridge CC (although it is already installed)
    All old Bridge version were uninstalled without result.

    I have the same issue when trying to Browse in Bridge from Photoshop CC 2014. When I click "Browse in Bridge" in Photoshop CC 2014, the Creative Cloud desktop client window opens up and asks "Are you sure you want to install this version of Bridge"?
    Like you, I also thought it was an update so I clicked' "Yes, install this version" option.
    Bridge will launch from the dock icon I have set up, but not from within Photoshop CC 2014.
    Any solutions to this bug anyone?
