Lightroom not detecting Photoshop cs5

Lightroom 4 only detects Photoshop cs2, not cs5, so I can't jump over to cs5 for further editting. Is there an easy way to correct this? I assume it is because cs2 was installed after cs5 (don't ask, it wasn't me!)

Do a repair install of PS CS5 and it should correct the issue.

  • LR3 Not Detecting Photoshop CS5

    Suddenly LR3 does not want to detect my newly installed Photoshop CS5. It detected fine yesterday, but today all the options for the Edit In > menu are grey except Photomatix. Photoshop opens and runs fine by itself.
    Any ideas would be great.. I am really hoping I won't have to reinstall Lightroom.

    These are the recommended procedures to solve your problem. Unfortunatel, reinstalling PS is the first one to go, but you can try the registry edit first.

  • Lightroom 3 does not see Photoshop CS5 as Primary EXTERNAL editor

    After removing prior versions of Lightroom (2.7) and Photoshop (CS4), Lightroom 3 does not recognize Photoshop CS5 64 bit or 32 bit as the PRIMARY external editor.  I can select the file and edit in the proper file, but the other options are greyed out.

    Missing Registry entry caused by uninstalling CS4 AFTER installing CS5.

    Any ideas?

    My student has been using Lightroom 4 with Photoshop CS5 on her Mac for well over a year. Because of the difference between the Camera raw version available to her in Photoshop CS5 and the raw process in Lightroom 4, she has been exporting her raw images from Lightroom and choosing the "Render using Lightroom option when it popped up in the dialogue box. She has been doing this for over a year and a half without any problem. Today when she hit Command E no dialogue box appeared and the image just opened in Photoshop. I'm concerned that all of her Lightroom edits are not being rendered to Photoshop. Anyone have an idea as to how we can get the "Render using Lightroom" dialogue back?

  • I cannot open files directly from Lightroom 4 into Photoshop CS5.

    I recently changed to new Macbook Pro and uploaded my Lightroom 4 and Photoshop CS5.
    Now when I go to 'Photo - Edit in - Photoshop' in Lightroom 4. Photoshop opens. But no image appears.
    I've updated the Camera Raw reader but this hasn't helped.
    Anyone got a suggestion that might help?
    I have been making attempts to download updates for my Photoshop PS5 but after 4 attempts I get the same failed window asking me to try later.
    Anyone any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance.

    It is important to understand how Lr works.
    Lr displays photos only when they are imported into Lr. A (seeming) exception is for a Raw image that is edited in Photoshop and <Saved> to the default settings that you selected in external editing of Preferences in Lr. So if the default setting is for PSD and you just hit <Save> in Photoshop, a PSD will be created and automatically imported back into Lr so that it will be displayed there. So, this is not really an exception from the rule that an image has to be imported into Lr - it is an automatic import. This automatic import works only for the <Save> to the default settings;it does not work when you do a <Save As> and select a different file format than the default setting. In your case you did a <Save as> to create a JPG. This JPG will not be automatically imported into Lr, you have to import it manually - either through the Import Dialog or by <Synchronize Folder>.
    Apart from that, and as JimHess said, why do you create a JPG in Photoshop from the same file? If you need a JPG, in Lr just export your PSD as a JPG when you need it.
    I often need JPGs from my file, but I create them only when needed by exporting them to a folder of my choice. Usually I delete them after a while. I don't see a reason why I should have JPGs sitting around on my hard drive(s). They can be created again (from the Raw files or from PSD's/Tiffs) if the need arises.

  • Can I Extract a Frame from a Video (in Lightroom 3 or Photoshop CS5)?

    I'm running Windows 7 and have Lightroom 3 and Photoshop CS5.  Extracting a frame from a .MOV file is way over my head, but I want to try.  Right now the file is in Lightroom, but the "Open in" options are grayed out.  I have exported the file to my desktop, and  I can play the video with Windows Media Player.  I bet somewhere, somehow there is a way to do what I want.  Any help, ideas or references would be much appreciated!

    When you say "Extract a frame", do you mean saving one of the frames as an image from Photoshop?
    Here's what you can do:
    1. Open the video in Photoshop, File > Open, and choose the .mov file.
    2. Once the video opens in Photoshop, open the Animation panel, Window > Animation
    3. In the Animation panel move the playhead to the desired frame, and save it as an image, File > Save As.
    and Voila!
    Any questions, just ask. I'll be more than happy to help.

  • Lightroom Linked to Photoshop CS5 32 Bit not 64 Bit

    Hello.
    On my computer I have Lightroom 3.6 64-bit, Photoshop CS5 32-bit and 64-bit. When I'm in LR and click to edit in Photoshop, LR brings up the 32-bit version rather than the 64-bit version. What can I do to fix this?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Chris,
    As a workaround, you could bring up Photoshop 64-bit manually and leave it running. I think that when you do an Edit in Photoshop, LR will send the file to that one.

  • Editing from Lightroom 4 to Photoshop CS5

    HELP!
    My Lightroom 4 is not working great these days.
    1 - When importing my photos from my memory cards, my "Catologue" area in Lightroom is GONE, no where to be found. How can I recover this!? It was pretty important to me to have this option.
    2 - When I am wanting to edit a Lightroom 4 photo (CR2 file) into Photoshop (CS5), it wont work. What will happen is Photoshop will open, that photo I edited WONT save back into my Lightroon Library, it will save into my "PICTURES" section on my MAC laptop. What I want it to do, as its done before, is save it as a edited JPEG right back into LIGHTROOM so all my images are together. This is getting extremely frustrating !! I NEEED ALL THE HELP I CAN GET PLEASE ANYONE!

  • Lightroom 5 and Photoshop CS5

    I am about to upgrade to LR 5. Currently I use LR4.4 which uses Camera RAW 7.4.  LR5 uses Camera RAW 8.2.  Will I be able to edit RAW files in LR5 and still continue to edit the resultant files in Photoshop CS5 without using a DNG conversion?

    The only practical limitation is that you lose some of the functions under "Edit in" - smart objects, layers, hdr and pano. These are Photoshop scripts that rely on ACR processing the raw files.
    Just to clarify in case of any confusion: if you are previously used to being able to override the default filename and folder location of your LR edits into Photoshop, by using "Save As" - you will need to stop doing that, and only use "Save".
    [When ACR is not involved - when it is LR which carries out the rendering of the adjustments and the creation of a working file for PS to edit - the file has already been saved before PS ever sees it. So that is where the editing changes made by PS have to be put, in order for Lr to show them as an update.]
    Also, if you are previously used to sometimes changing your mind about doing a PS edit "midway", and exiting PS without having saved anything - this working scenario will still leave that brand new editing file on disk, plus a new thumbnail inside LR corresponding to that. That pairing would require manual deletion, separately, from inside LR.

  • Opening Lightroom images in photoshop cs5 ACR

    Is there any way to edit Lightroom 3.0 images in Photoshop Cs5 ACR? If I choose Edit in Photoshop the image goes directly to photoshop and bypasses ACR. I have tried creating an ACR option in Preferences but cant find the ACR file. Can anyone help?

    No...and there is no reason to do so. Lightroom and Camera Raw share the exact same processing pipeline–assuming you are using the same rev version. The only way to take a raw image into Photoshop and use the Camera Raw dlog is to open as a Smart Object which will give you the SO version of Camera Raw inside the Photoshop document.

  • Lightroom Not Regonising Photoshop CS2.

    Hi all
    Just selected an image and others in Lightroom 1.3 and when you right click my option to edit in Photoshop is no longer their. I only get the option to use Windoes Explorer. When I go into Edit> External editing, it states Photoshop is not found. Huh
    So what do I need to get he Photoshop options back.
    Thankyou josel

    What shows up in your preferences under External Editing TAB. (shortcut to get there is CTRL, (CTRL comma on Windows). The top entry should show "Edit in Photoshop CS2".
    Adobe has an article for fixing this for Photoshop CS3, but it should work for CS2 as well, if you substitute references to CS3 with CS2:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb401629
    That article recommends two steps for Windows (and Mac). For Windows it recommends firstly reinstalling Photoshop. However, if Photoshop is installed and working, you should follow step 2. It involves registry editing. If you do not want to edit the registry, then you may try the registry export described here:
    http://blog.rrdphoto.com/2007/05/how-to-fix-lightrooms-edit-in-photoshop.html
    Download the fix_PSCS3_path_reg file, edit it to refer to CS2 and double-click the edited version to update your registry.
