Lr4 and cs6.

This past few days my lightroom 4 and my cs6 photoshop stopped working. What is going on???

Without any specific error message the only steps I can suggest are those contained in Troubleshoot system errors, freezes | Windows | Adobe software - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/troubleshoot-system-errors-freezes-windows.html.

Metadata Conflicts between LR4 and CS6

I recently upgraded to LR4 and CS6 Extended. I will offer start in LR4 but switch to CS6 for additional editing. On some of my thumbnails, I will see a "!" in the upper right hand corner on the thumbnails. When I click on the icon, a pop-up window appear stating a Metadata conflict has occurred. The pop-up window gives you two options: Copy file data into the catalog or have the catalog overwrite the file data. What is the best thing to do knowing you are only working between LR4 and CS6?

This is a known issue with the latest PS update. Refer to the pertinent thread on the PS forum.

LR4 to CS6 not opening image.

Right clicking on image in LR4, then selecting open with CS6. CS6 program starts fine, but no image? If I select CS5, it works fine.
Also, I tried a workaround, by exporting the file to my desktop (DNG). Right clicking on the image, and selecting CS6, again will not open the image? If I open CS6, then Menu>file>open, all files are greyed out until I select "all documents" in the enable menu?

Thanks for support.
My posting is based on my experience with my main computer (MAC tower pro) at home. but I also have a mac book pro that i use for work/travel. this also has CS5, LR4 and CS6, and when i tested this when I got in the office this mornig, it worked fine - no problems.
i think when I get home this evening, i'll r-install CS6 and see if that works. for the record, my macbook is running:
LR4.1RC with CR7.0
CS5 12.0.4 with CR 6.6.0.261
CS6 13.0 with CR 7.0.0.308

Installing LR4 and PS6 on a 2nd internal SSD

I'm installing a second (2nd) internal SSD in my new computer and want to load LR4 and CS6 on the second internal SSD which will be dive letter "J". Will LR4 and PS6 launch and work properly from my second internal SSD drive? Windows 8 operating system will stay on the "C" drive.

It should work fine. Please keep in mind that there will still be shared components installed on the C: drive.

CS6 creates tiled image when moving from LR4 and HDR Effex Pro

Just recently I've had a problem with CS6 where it creates a partial (tiled) image when "Edit In" from LR4 and when saving back to CS6 from HDR Effex Pro. THe image may have one or several retangles which may be black, white, or part of the image that's in the wrong place if that makes any sense. All software is running with current updates. I've had the software about 6 months and never incurred this problem until the last week. Help!

I've run through several scenarios and find that it's always in CS6 that I have the problem. I opened a file in all modules of Nik as well as OnOne's Perfect Photo Suite. When I go back (save) to CS6 there is always a problem. When I save in CS6 and then open up in LR the image is fine. So the file must not be corrupt, it just doesn't present it properly in CS6. The GPU driver appears to be up to date....last update was in 2011 and I've had this computer since late 2012.

Colour difference between LR4.4 and CS6

Why is the colour different from LR4 to CS6? Using Spyder to calibrate screen and I know CS6 picks up the Spyder calibration but not sure is LR4 picks up the same calibration. Both are set for srgb colour space.

If you wish to have the best match between Lightroom and Photoshop it would be best to select Pro Photo RGB as your Color Working space in Photoshop.
If everything is working as it should (i.e. the monitor profile is good and valid), that normally makes no visual difference on screen. The only possible exception is if the document profile in Photoshop is sRGB and you have a wide gamut monitor. Then you might see gamut differences.
Other than that, the conversion from any color space to the monitor profile should give identical results - that's the whole point of color management. But if there is a problem with the monitor profile, one conversion may go bad but not the other, and so you see a difference.
In short, any difference that is not attributable to gamut clipping (and again that only applies to a wide gamut monitor) is diagnostic of a bad profile.

LR4 and Camera Raw 6.7

Hello,
This is my first post, so please bear with me if I do something wrong.
I got LR4 (update from 3) right after it was relesed. I also have Photoshop CS5, so I ran into the PS/LR4 interoperability issue like everybody else. I just checked the status of this issue and I read the followinng in the Lightroom Journal (posted by thogarty on March 12, 2012 under the title "Lightroom 4 Hot Issues":
The team would like to provide an update on several issues discovered since last Monday night’s launch. Thanks for your patience while we investigated and compiled this list.
Edit in Photoshop Workflow
Currently, the Edit in Photoshop workflow asks that you have the Camera Raw 7 plug-in installed. Please note that the Camera Raw 7 plug-in is not available at this time. The correct plug-in for Lightroom 4 and Photoshop CS5 compatibility is Camera Raw 6.7, currently available on Adobe Labs Please keep in mind that currently Camera Raw 6.7 is a a Release Candidate version of the plug-in. A “release candidate” label indicates that this update is well tested but would benefit from additional community testing before it is distributed automatically to all of our customers.
This is a little confusing. When I start up LR4 and go to Help>About I get the About window in whose upper right corner I see "Lightroom 4.0, Camera Raw 7.0". What is going to happen when the Camera Raw 6.7 gets released and I install it. Is it going to upgrade my PS plug-in only or, perhaps, downgrade my LR4 plug-in at the same time?
REgards,
Andy

I don't have Lightroom 4. And from what I had seen so far in the forum, I don't plan on getting it. But from what I have seen I don't think things are any different than they have been with previous versions. Lightroom 4 has been designed to work with Camera Raw 7, which will be part of Photoshop CS6. I don't have the CS6 Beta, and don't plan on getting it. But apparently ACR 7 is not yet ready for release. When you don't have the current release of Camera Raw my experience has been that Lightroom has always given that warning and provided you with the opportunity to edit a copy which includes the Lightroom adjustments. The reason this has to be done is that when you send a raw image from Lightroom to Photoshop Camera Raw Has to interpret the adjustments. And if you don't have the current version the best thing to choose is to send a copy that includes the Lightroom adjustments.
But there seems to be a problem at this point because Lightroom 4 has been released ahead of Photoshop CS6 and so things are out of sync at the present time.
When I was still using Lightroom 2 and even Lightroom 3 I was using Photoshop CS3. So my option was always to send a copy of the raw image to Photoshop. In those two versions of Lightroom the adjustments carried through and I felt the results were acceptable. Apparently, that isn't the case right now with the new version.
Sending a copy to Photoshop doesn't really cause problems, in my opinion. Even if you don't have to do that, once you have completed your adjustments in Photoshop that image has to be saved as a new image. The adjustments cannot be applied from Photoshop to the original raw image. That has never been the case.
In light of all the problems a lot of people seem to be having, I am steering clear of Lightroom 4, at least for the time being. I still get good results with Lightroom 3.6 and have full support for all my cameras. But it seems to me that it's going to take some coordinated effort from Adobe to get this Lightroom/ACR discrepancy resolved. Good luck to all of you. I'm just having a lot of fun with my Lightroom 3/Photoshop CS5 combination.

Should I Avoid LR4 and Get LR3 Because of My Huge Hierarchical Keyword List?

I abandoned LR2 several years ago because it crashed from my hierarchical list of 12,000 keywords. (Botanical and common names and other terms.) I have been using CS5/Camera Raw/Bridge to manage and edit my images. The hierarchical list is necessary for my stock photo business.
I will soon be needing to compare and edit images for a book publication and gallery show and I am thinking I may need to return to LR so I can work more effciently. I do not care about not exporting some keywords or synonyms etc. I think (right now anyway) that it is fine that all keywords associated with the images get exported for my stock submissions. I ususally check off only the sub-keywords or sub-sub-sub keywords.
Here are my questions:
1) Is LR 3 able to handle my huge list of hierarchical keywords which is now larger than 12,000 words?
2) Should I upgrade to LR3 and not to LR4 to avoid the keyword mess I have been reading about but don't understand very well?
3) Is it possible to even upgrade to LR3 now that LR4 is released?
3) Would LR4 handle my keywords better or worse than LR2? Than LR3?
4) Is there a work efficiency reason to upgrade to CS6 without using any version of LR and continue using Bridge and Camera Raw as I have been?
5) Is there anything else I have not thought to ask? I am somewhat technically challenged and dread learning new software, having been burned in the past with ExpressionsMedia disaster and LR2 which crashed etc.
Thanks for any and all input from the forum!

I try to answer your questions. I also have a large list of hierarchical keywords (funny ... also botanical names) but not as much as you have.
1) I think that Lr3 is able to handle your list of keywords. I have not heard from anybody that there is a limit to the number of keywords that Lr is able to handle.
2) There seem to be some keyword issues in Lr4. My keywords were perfectly fine in Lr3 but after upgrading to Lr4 some of my keywords were not populated, meaning that the keywords themselves were listed in the keyword list but the image count showed 0. I still have my Lr3 catalog so was able to check (with Lr3) that, indeed, in Lr3 all the keywords in question were populated with the correct number of images. Fortunately there were not too many of these not-populated keywords, so I corrected the issue manually.
Since correct keywords are mandatory for your stock business, you are right in hesitating to upgrade to Lr4. In my opinion, the improvements that Lr4 offers over Lr3 are mainly in areas that are - probably - not so important to a stock business: improvements in the Develop Module and new Process Version, the Book Module, the map Module. On the other hand I would think that image management is paramount for you and in this area Lr4 is not much different than Lr3.
3) You will not be able to get an upgrade to Lr3 from Adobe now that Lr4 has been released. So you had to find a 3rd party vendor (B&H? Amazon?) who still sells Lr3.
4) Apart from the issue described above, I don't see any difference in keyword handling between Lr3 and Lr4. Lr2 is too far back for me - I don't remember.
5) My suggestion for you would be: You have to upgrade at some point. The longer you wait, the more difficult the transition will be because the differences of future versions to Lr2 will become greater. Since at the moment version 4.1 is in the works (there have been two RCs (Release candidates) of version 4.1 already), maybe it would be wise to wait until the final 4.1 version is out. maybe the keyword issues have been fixed.
6) You can "upgrade" to Lr4 and still have Lr2 on your system. All the Lr versions are stand-alone versions, not "plug-ins" for the previous versions. So you can have two (or more) different Lr versions on your system. So I would suggest that you upgrade to Lr 4.1 (once this version is out) but leave Lr2 on your system. When you Lr4 you will be asked if you want to upgrade your Lr catalog to Lr4 and you have the option of saving the Lr4 catalog as a different file, so that your Lr2 catalog is still available for Lr2 (Lr2 will not be able to work with the Lr4 catalog!). That way, if anything is amiss in Lr4 you can go back to Lr2 and work from there.

No JPEG saved to LR4 from CS6?

Hi,
I'm running LR4.3 and CS6 on an iMac. I open a raw file in LR4, then open in CS6 from Lightroom. Edit a little, save as a jpeg, close, and the file does not come back into Lightroom. Either in a folder or in the collection. TIF and PSD come in... but not jpeg.
So I try to import the image. It does not show up in the folder as a non imported image... or at all. Then, I open my hard drive from Finder, go into the folder and there it is.
Why isn't LR4 reading my jpegs?
Help!

The Photoshop CSxx edits are automatically imported in Lr only when you do a <save> as opposed to <save as>.
A <save> creates a PSD or TIFF but to create a JPG you have to do a <save as>.
The JPG should show when - in Lr - you right-click the folder in question and select <Synchronize folder>.
Also, be sure to turn on the Maximize Compatibility option in Photoshop so that Lightroom can read the images.
Consider creating the JPG via export in Lr. If you check the box <Add to this catalog> in the Export Dialog, the exported image will automatically be imported in Lr.

Editing Nikon D800 RAW files from LR4 to CS6...Images are not appearing in PS6

I just downloaded the latest PS6 and Camera Raw files. If I'm in LR4 and chose to edit an image in CS6 the image does not load. I never had the beta version of CS6. The files are from Nikon D800.

You need the ACR 7.1 from the Labs page.

Just bought a Nikon d750 and confused about adobe LR4 and PS6 support for the RAW files. I have DNG 8.7 but wondering if LR and PS will import direct soon Thanks for any advice

Just bought a Nikon d750 and confused about adobe LR4 and PS6 support for the RAW files. I have DNG 8.7 but wondering if LR and PS will import direct soon Thanks for any advice

Support for the Nikon D750 was introduced in the latest version of LR 5.7 and ACR 8.7 on Novemder 18th 2014.
Further updates to LR 4 were stopped when LR 5 was released on June 9th 2013. No further updates for bug fixes and new camera support.
Nada, LR 4 will never support Nikon D750. The Nikon D750 was introduced into the market in September 2014 some 15 months after further development of LR 4 was discontinued.
You can use the Adobe DNG program (free download for the package) to convert the Nef (raw) files from your Nikon D750 to the Adobe DNG format which will permit you to import those into LR 4. This is the crutch provided by Adobe to allow for the processing of raw files with outdated versions of LR and ACR.
You can also update the ACR plugin for PS CS6 to version 8.7 which can also work with the raw files from the D750. For direct support in Lightroom you will need to upgrade (paid) to version 5.7.

LR4 / PS CS6 no image

This was all working prior to upgrading to CS6..... but now when I right click on an image in LR4 and choose "Edit In" --> Photoshop CS6 then Photoshop CS6 launches but the image never appears.
It all seems correctly configured in the Preferences, but there is no additional image being stacked with the original either.
Any ideas?

It doesn't stack the images like it used to with CS5 at first, nor does it ask me if i want to edit the original or the edited with LR changes. It opens a raw file with LR edits applied to it, even cloning and adjustment brush changes. Once you edit something in PS and save it, it will save it using what ever preference you selected, and then it will add a new file to LR and stack it together with the original. its a little weird but it works and thats all i care about
What you describe is normal behaviour for LR - it's working exactly as it should do.
You would only get a prompt to edit original, edit copy, etc if the file you tried to open in an external editor (PS) wasn't a raw file (e.g. if you tried to open a TIFF or JPEG), otherwise it opens directly into PS (having being rendered first using ACR but using the settings you applied in the LR develop module) without the need to save and stack an image first. The reason it was working differently in CS5 is because the two weren't directly compatible, so LR had to render an image before passing it over to PS, hence it giving you the "edit original" message, immediatley appearing in the catalogue, and being stacked with the original before you actually did anything in PS. Hope this makes sense!

LR4 and ACR still in sync?

As most here will know LR uses Adobe Camera Raw as its engine.
Now what got me wondering is the fact that LR4 has been released as a final product while ACR 6.7 is still at the release candidate state.
How is this possible?
Has LR4 been released prematurely?

I would have preferred them to take their time. I will give both a miss for the time being.
Not practical...LR4 and Photoshop CS6 (and ACR 7) are on separate but similar release cycles...no, they don't mess up exactly but Adobe has a history of releasing a "last" ACR version (ACR 6.7) before Photoshop CS6 and ACR (ACR 7.x). Do you want LR4 to be delayed because the dev cycles are different? Do you really want LR to be that tied to Photoshop?

Adobe creative cloud and CS6 Illustrator download was a disaster

After downloading Adobe creative cloud and CS6 Illustrator my system wwent into crash mode with one error after another. Had no less than 4 blue screens of death (BSOD) and I had to do restore but lost most of my files and cannnot get them back. What say you? I unistalled any leftover CC and CS6 illustrator thereafter.

We can't know. You have not provided any relevant technical info like system specs and the actual crash logs. just saying that it crashes is pretty useless.

Adobe Cloud and CS6 extended trial.

I bought CS6 recently and it is registered in my name. For some reason I found myself on a trial of Adobe Cloud and CS6 extended which I do not want. The trial has finished but when I try quitting it, it will not allow me to use my CS6. How do I get round this problem?

Hi Livlah-T,
Everything looked normal with your account but it didn't appear you had completed the 30 day license check.
My recommendation would be
- Launch Adobe Application Manager from either the Start menu (Windows) or Applications folder (Mac) and install all available product updates.
- Once this is complete launch whatever product was showing up as a trial and click the "License this software" and sign in with your Adobe ID.
If the next time you launch the product it is still coming up as a trial, you might try creating a new administrator account and going through the "License this software" process again
