Lightroom "Edit in" no photo in Elements

My photo does not show up in Elemements 10 when I use  "Edit In" button in Lightroom 3? I am working with a photo in lightroom and select "edit in" (Elements 10) and Elements opens but no photo shows up. What am doing wrong?

Is this the mac version? If so, see this:

  • Cannot edit Lightroom 2 photo in Elements 9

    I am using OS 10.6.5. I have  Lightroom 2.7 installed and I just purchased Photoshop Elements 9. I am  trying to edit my Lightroom photos in Elements by going to the Menu,  selecting Photos and then the selecting Edit In, but I am not able to select any  of the options from Edit In as they are grayed out. I have uninstalled and  re-installed both programs and that has not helped. Any suggestions?   Let me know if more info is needed.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    I think LR should automatically detect PS Elements, and set it up as an external editor, when being installed. However, if there's a problem and it doesn't automatically set it up, you can try and set it up manually yourself. The instructions on how to do this are here;

    I had an old version of PS Elements on my system when I started using LR, and LR didn't pick it up as an external editor - I assume this is because I have PS CS5 installed, and it used that instead.
    Hopefully, this workaround will solve the problem.

    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.

  • Can layers be used to further edit a photo in Elements after editing in LR? [was:Tacoma Grandma]

    Is there a way to use layers to further edit a photo in Elements after editing in Lightroom?

    The "Edit In" option of Lightroom is the usual way. This creates a new image that PS / Elements can work with. The starting image and the new image (showing the results of your editing, once those are saved) both then appear in Lightroom.
    Exporting does not pair up LR and Elements (or other image editing program) in quite the same easy and transparent way.
    As to the Layers query: probably the most usual format chosen for external editing is TIFF, but PSD is also used. Both preserve any layers intact when saved (unlike JPG) allowing returning to a layered file for further editing in the future. These editing files include a further fullsize preview, if layered (this is unnecessary for a flattened file, in which case LR can just read that Background layer directly).
    The preview is a losslessly compressed full colour bitmap, updated at each time of saving, representing the then-current combined appearance of the "layer stack" as seen within Elements.
    Lightroom cannot understand about whatever pixel and adjustment layers, layer interactions and effects etc the file may contain -  but it doesn't need to, because it can look at the "compatibility" preview instead.

  • Lightroom ~ Edit in Elements?

    On Macbook Pro in Lightroom 4 I have set Photoshop Elements to Edit. However, when I go to Photo>Edit in Photoshop Elements 10, Elements opens but image does no appear? I have to export a jpeg image, again Photoshop Elements opens but no image appears, I have to open the jpeg file from within Elements.

    I've managed to sort the problem, I have a Mac so in LR Preferences go to External Editing, Adobe Photoshop CS for me was already chosen in the upper box. In the Additional External Editor box go to 'Choose' navigate to Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements/Support Files and choose 'Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor'.
    Just choosing the first Adobe Photoshop Elements opened up the Elements window where you choose Organise or Edit and failed to open the file from LR.
    I do thing it's poor that Adobe cannot fix this problem or give clearer advice, I only realised when viewing Adobe's tutorial 'Using Lightroom and Elements together' and it shows navigating to Elements Editor. How many people like me intuitively chose the first Adobe Photoshop Elements icon when navigating, it's certainly not intuitive to go into support files. So come on Adobe, fix this or make it clearer.
    Hope this helps those who have this problem.

  • I have Elements 11. Sometimes, if I edit a photo in Elements Editor, the date gets changed to the current date. Why does that happen? It doesn't happen all the time, so I can't isolate the cause. Any ideas?

    IIs there an export function from Lightroom? Did you export? Does the exported file contain your edit?
    THe hard drive file size doesn't matter. What matters is the image size, it's dimensions in pixels.

    Just for background, in what format are you exporting your images?  Also, are you able to export them to your hard drive in your chosen format?  I haven't tried exporting directly to CD, but if you're able to export to hard drive and copy to CD, that may be one solution.

  • Can't edit RAW photos in Elements 6

    Hello,
    I imported my RAW photos from my Nikon D80 to iPhoto '08 (v7.1.4) When I try to edit the photo in Elements 6 (by double clicking on it), the photo opens as a JPEG in Elements. Same thing happens if I try to drag the photo from iPhoto to my desktop - it automatically converts to JPEG.
    Any thoughts are appreciated!

    Ozark
    iPhoto Preferences -> Advanced -> Check the box at 'Use RAW when using external editor
    Dragging to the desktop will always get you the current version. Try exporting (File -> Export) setting the kind: to Original.

  • IPhoto 6.0.4 crashing after editing photo in Elements 3.0

    After I edit a photo in Elements 3.0 (double-click to edit, make changes, save as JPEG, max quality, close) and click back to iPhoto, iPhoto crashes suddenly (no error message). Thereafter, I cannot view the photo I edited in full screen mode, nor can I view the photo adjacent to it in the roll. The link to the full-size photo, as opposed to the thumbnail, appears to be corrupt. Opening iPhoto while holding down shift+option doesn't help.

    Steven:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    double-click to edi
    I'm assuming you've setup iPhoto to use Photoshop Elements when you double click on a thumbnail, right?
    Try downloading and running BatChmod on the iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, substituting your account name for mine. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field. See if that will help.
    If not create a new library, import a couple of photos and try editing with PSE as you do in the other library. If that one crashes then it's either an iPhoto problem or a system wide problem. If it doesn't crash, try rebuilding the library by launching iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and following the instructions to rebuild the library. Select all the options.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

  • In LR 5, "edit photo in Elements" makes PSD & launches Elements but photo doesn't open in Elements

    Preferences are set w/ PSCC as first external editor and Elements 10 as second.
    Elements 10 is set up for PSD file, 16-bit etc. as recommended by Adobe Help.
    Repro:
    Select photo in LR
    Open Develop module
    Select Photo/Edit in ... Elements
    LR makes PSD
    Elements launches
    No photo in Elements (does not open with photo, project bin is empty)
    Expected: PSD from LR to open in Elements

    Under the "Additional Enternal Editor" / Application you are probably pointing to "Adobe Photoshop Elements" instead of "Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor"   See here for more info

  • Photoshop Elements, Lightroom and Nik Software Lightroom Edition experience working together?

    I have Photoshop Elements 10 and number of plugins, like Topaz Labs ones. I have also just acquired Lightroom. I do want to get CS5 eventually but that is not in the near future.
    I am thinking of getting Nik Software's Complete Collection. It does not support Elements 10, but it does support Lightroom. So solution seems easy, just use it in Lightroom. That solution could also result in $200 saving as edition that includes support for Photoshop and Lightroom is right now $399 while one that supports just Lightroom (and Aperture but that is not of relevance to me as I am a Windows user) is $199.
    However, I do not want to lose benefits of other plugins I have so going with solely Lightroom edition means increased going back and forth between Photoshop and Lightroom.
    So question for those experienced with 3 of these together: Do you foresee issues with getting edition that just supports Lightroom? What things I might feel are missing / might frustrate me with this approach?

      I’ve not used Nik Software but have used Lightroom and PSE together and the two programs integrate well. If Elements was already installed Lightroom should automatically recognize it as your external editor otherwise you need to set up external handling in Lightroom preferences.
    I assume any changes made in Lightroom with a Nik plug in will register as part of the Lightroom Develop settings. Is that how it should work?
    My usual routine is to highlight an image in the Lightroom Library and then
    1) Press Ctrl+E to edit in photoshop - choose PSD with Lightroom settings
    2) Image opens automatically in PSE Editor
    3) Do further editing in PSE and press Ctrl+S to save an overwrite the Lightroom export copy. Click OK
    4) Press Ctrl+W to close the saved PSD file which automatically updates the Lightroom thumbnail.
    It all works quite seamlessly. Use the PSD copy in light room to export a jpeg or any other format of your choosing.
