Lightroom won't open photoshop CS6.. Edit in Photoshop doesn't work

Lightrrom 4.2 can't use the right click, "edit in" photoshop CS6. I have tried edit, preferences, and created a Preset and pointed it to the CS6 photoshop.exe... still a no-go. Help!!!

I had this problem. You must run Lightroom as administrator - even if the account you are in has administrator priviliges.
Test if this is the problem you are having  by opening lightroom in administrator mode:
Open Windows explorer and navigate to where the lightroom.exe file is located.
Usualy in  C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.4
Right click on lightroom.exe and select "Run as administrator" from the pop up menu.
Test by selecting a photo and selecting the "Edit in Adobe photoshop CS6" option.
If this works then close lightroom and go back to the "lightroom.exe" folder location,
rightclick on the lightroom.exe file but select "properties", then select the "compatibility" tab and
select "change settings for all users" button.
A box called  compatibility for all users should appear, at the bottom there is a checkbox "privilige level"
make sure the "run this program as administrator is checked".
Close lightroom and reopen it.
Hope this helps.

  • Lightroom won't open my RAW files in Photoshop

    I've had this problem for a few months now, but I thought I'd test the waters and see if there's anyone out there who can help me now. Here is a video of what happens when I try to open ANY raw file from ANY camera type in Lightroom to edit in Photoshop. This happens if I go through the menus or if I control+e to open them.
    Photoshop CC Opening RAW Problem - vidme
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times. I have reinstalled PS first and LR second like some have suggested. I've gone as far as reformatting my ENTIRE computer TWICE with two different OS versions and installing LR+PS on those versions, still no luck. My workaround has been editing the RAW files in LR, saving the metadata, then navigating to the folder in finder and opening the RAW files directly into PS. That works, but is horribly inefficient.
    Anyone have any ideas? I am on the latest versions of LR and PS with my CC subscription.

    I do not use a Mac but Windows as delivered from Microsoft does not generate Thumbnails for RAW files or even Photoshop Files like PSD  in order to seen the in Windows UI like Windows File Explore (Mac Finder) or in File Open and selection Dialog one needs to install some windows add on.  I use FastPictureViered Codec Package,  When installed on Windows I can have the thumbnails your looking for.  Perhaps You need some Mac add on or Apple Update the see thumbnails for RAW files. I see things like this on the web Digital Camera RAW Compatibility 4.06

  • Image won't open when clicking "Edit in Photoshop". Running Lightroom 5.5 and Photoshop CC2014

    Photoshop opens, but then nothing happens...

    Hi PJ,
    I am searching this forum for the same issue. I am a hobbyist photographer, who used to work on LIghtroom first and then open the same photo from LR to photoshop CC and made few minor adjustment. After installing CC 2014 version, this feature is gone. Photoshop CC is opening and nothing is happening. Again, I have to open the image in photoshop CC manually, which is really annoying. Hope someone from photoshop team is listening.

  • How do I prevent Lightroom from creating duplicates if the edit in photoshop is not saved?

    Hello!
    How do I prevent Lightroom from creating duplicates if the edit in photoshop is not saved?
    So... Quite often I choose to 'Edit in photoshop' from Lightroom but then end up not saving the result. (for example, because I just wanted to experiment with the photo, or I'm not satisfied with the results)
    However, Lightroom always creates a copy of the original photo, which stays in the catalog even if the photoshop changes aren't saved.
    Is there a way to stop this, and only add a photo if it has been edited in PS?
    Using LR5 with PS CS6 on a Mac 10.9
    THANK YOU!

    Select 'Open the Image in PS as a Smart Object'. The image will be rendered by ACR in memory without being written to disc until you save it from within PS.

  • Loaded 5.7.1 now Lightroom won't open

    loaded Lightroom 5.7.1 now Lightroom won't open?

    I just upgraded to 5.7.1 and get the same on OS X 10.10.1. The messages is
    Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 cannot be opened because of a problem.
    I tried deleting Lightroom and reinstalling, just the same.
    I tried deleting the preference file in $HOME/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.Lightroom5.plist
    again crashes just the same, and Lightroom crashes before recreating the file.
    Tried a reboot. No joy.

  • RAW images in Lightroom aren't opening in camera raw in Photoshop.  Instead, I have to open the image in Finder before it will open in Camera Raw in Photoshop.  How can I correct that?

    RAW images in Lightroom aren't opening in camera raw in Photoshop.  Instead, I have to open the image in Finder before it will open in Camera Raw in Photoshop.  How can I correct that?

    Your question is a little unclear. In a "normal" Lightroom/Photoshop workflow the raw images do not open from Lightroom into Camera Raw. Lightroom has all of the Camera Raw functionality in the develop module. When you choose to open an image in Photoshop, and Lightroom and Photoshop are synchronized (i.e. referencing the same version of Camera Raw) then Camera Raw is simply used to interpret the Lightroom adjustments as the image is transferred to Photoshop. If Camera Raw is an older version then Lightroom offers you the choice to open the image or create a PSD or TIF file that includes all of the Lightroom adjustments. But in either case, opening in Camera Raw is not part of the workflow. It is possible to open the image as a smart object or convert the image to the smart object in Photoshop and then open it in Camera Raw. That is done from within Photoshop or is one of the open options in Lightroom. If you choose to go the smart object route the image first has to be opened in Photoshop and then from there you can open it in Camera Raw.

  • Lightroom won't open on my mac

    I am attempting to activate Lightroom on a mac. I've used it on this computer in the past and it suddenly stopped working. I deleted the file and installed the product again. The installation went through, but Lightroom won't open. I tried deactivating the product before deleting, but there was no option. What am I missing?

    What happens when you try to open Lightroom?
    What is the error message?
    What version of Lightroom?
    What operating system?

  • Lightroom won't open, says it's open in another application?Lightroom won't open, says it's open in another application?

    Lightroom won't open, says it's open in another application..

    Depending on your operating system, use Windows Explorer or Finder to open the folder containing your catalog. In that folder you will find a file with the same name as your catalog, but with the .lock extension. That file needs to be deleted, and then you will be able to start Lightroom.

  • Indesign CS4 files won't open in CS6

    Installed CS6 on new MBP. Moved CS4 design files over to new computer.
    Files won't open in CS6. Get the following message:
    Cannot open "filename.indd". The file "filename.indd" is damaged (Error code: 4).
    This happens with ALL of my CS4 Indesign files. (*Note: they DO open on old MBP)
    I tried exporting one as IDML on old machine - same thing.
    Any suggestions? I was told all older version files will open in NEW CS versions. True?

    The Voodoo is in the basics. - turn it off...turn it on?
    I just quit InDesign CS6 and reopened...now all of my files are opening fine in CS6!
    @Bob - just to double check - moved files from old mbp - onto external hd - then brought them over to new mbp...is there a better way?

  • Cannot install Photoshop CS6 ugrade to Photoshop CS4 on Windows 7 PC.

    I cannot install Photoshop CS6 upgrade to Photoshop CS4 on my Windows 7 PC. Error reads - Serial Number you provided is valid, but a qualifing product could not be found on this computer. I then selected CS$ as the product and entered the serial number with Error - This serial number is not for a qualifying product. CS4 is currently running on the PC. Any advise?

    If you recently purchased CS6 as an upgrade then the versions that qualify for the upgrade were reduced a couple years ago to only include CS5 and CS5.5.  If you purchased CS6 a couple years ago while CS4 was still in the upgrade path then you should contact Adobe support using chat and see if they can help you get thru the activation.

  • How could I update from photoshop cs6 standard to photoshop cs6 extended?

    Hello,
    I'd like to update my photoshop cs6 standard to photoshop cs6 extended to work with the 3d features. I've looked on adobe's website but I can only buy the update from photoshop cs5 standard and not cs6. Is there any solution?
    Thanks, regards

    CS6 cannot be upgraded.  If you join the Creative Cloud and download PhotoshopCC2014 you get it with the 3D features.

  • I am using CS4. Can I open CS6 files? I am receiving "plug-ins not available on your system" messages and I'd like to open anyway but clicking on OK doesn't work.

    I am using CS4. Can I open CS6 files? I am receiving "plug-ins not available on your system" messages and I'd like to open anyway but clicking on OK doesn't work.

    InDesign CS4 can open .indd, .indt  and .inx files from earlier versions, but not from later. It should, however, be able to open .idml files saved or exported from newer versions, with the understanding that unsupported features will be lost, text will probably reflow due to differences in texts engines between versions, and that the greater the gap between versions the more likely there are to be noticeable differences from the original. You will need to be sure CS4 is at version 7.0.6 to read the .idml.

  • When I click on the 'help' key in the elements 12 program it wants to open it in Firefox2. Firefox doesn't work on my Macbook Pro Air. I use Safari. How do I get it to open?

    When I click on the 'help' key in the elements 12 program it wants to open it in Firefox2. Firefox doesn't work on my Macbook Pro Air. I use Safari. How do I get it to open?

    Hmm, that is very strange. I agree with MichelB that it's probably best just to get the PDF, but you can try going to your username>library>preferences and deleting:
    com.adobe.PhotoshopElements.plist
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 settings
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 paths
    To see the library, click the Go menu in the Finder and hold down the option key and it will appear below the little house for your user account. While you're in there it wouldn't be a bad idea to go to the Saved Application States folder and delete anything pertaining to PSE.
    Repair permissions and see if that does it.

    I have tried repairing the disk from the installation CD and repairing the permissions and I have also tried re-installing Mountain Lion but the feature still does not work. Any ideas?

    Open Finder, press Option key and select Go > Library. Open Preferences and delete com.apple.systempreferences.plist. If you can't open, do a backup, format and install
