Moving edits from lightroom 2.2 to cs3

i'm having issues with moving edited images from LR 2.2 to CS 3 with the right mouse click (right click moves pics from lr to cs for more editing)
seems lightroom or cs is hanging up. either way, cs isn't receiving the image.
i had deleted the old lr 2.2 and re-installed 2.2 again in hopes of solving the adjustment brush hang ups..now this is a new issue ugh... :(
signed,
frustrated

Deleting Preferences may have a better effect. Onna Mac, Cmd-E opens a LR RAW file in PS. Are you talking about the contextual menu you get by right clicking on an image?

Save as DNG in Photoshop when editing from Lightroom

When transfering from Lightroom 2 to Photoshop CS3 (Windows) and after editing as a smart object in Photoshop how do I save the file back into Lightroom as a DNG file

You cannot save DNG files from photoshop. This is because DNG lacks the support for the features you need.

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!

Elements won't open when trying to edit from Lightroom

I was trying to move two photos from Lightroom to Elements to edit. I click on the photos, tell it to edit in Elements and it goes thru the process, says complete, but Elements will not open???? I recently changed the default editor to CS5 with the alternate as Elements. Any ideas?
Thanks

Oops, answered my own question. Seems when I set up preferences, I goofed and somehow didn't get the correct app. Sorry

Problems editing from lightroom to CS3

Hi everyone,
This has quite possibly been addressed in the forums already, but I'm at the stage where I need this fixed now and don't have the time to sift through the existing discussions. I hope that's ok?
I really hope that someone can help me out here. I've tried everything I know already before bothering others to help.
My problem is I'm running a new Lightroom 2 program at work and for some reason it won't convert the RAW files to PSD's for editing in CS3. It doesn't even offer the "What to edit Dialogue" after right clicking on the photo in the flimstrip and choosing "edit in Photoshop CS3". Therefore I don't have the option to "edit a copy with Lightroom adjustments" or "stack with original"....there's nothing. Lightroom immediately transfers the RAW file straight to CS3. In the past it has always converted the RAW file to a PSD. The "Preparing File for Editing" which appears in the top left of the screen also does not appear. After the editing process in CS3, the filmstrip in Lightroom doesn't have stacks of processed photos either...just the original RAW file exists.
I also run lightroom on my computer at home.....with no problems what-so-ever. I even went as far as to copy all the preferences from my home computer to compare with the computer at work. Still no luck. Now for the first week using this on the work computer, I never had any problems....all of a sudden I'm noticing the changes....like in the last week or so. I don't know if some of the settings have been altered by another user, but this is frustrating me no end!!!
Any help or solutions would be greatly appreciated.....I thank you in advance and hope someone can help
Cheers.......SHARON GALLAGHER

Jim thanks for the reply. It's possible that the option not to show the dialogue has been checked....so probably explains why it no longer appears. Since my home program is working fine, I copied all the preferences from there to the work computer like I said. But maybe I missed something??
But the file that lightroom sends to photoshop is indeed a NEF file. (I'm Nikon). In all the external editing preferences in Lightroom, I've chosen PSD files....NEF isn't even there as an option!
There is a status bar that appears in the top left corner of the screen in Lightroom showing the progress of the conversion of files from RAW to PSD (or TIFF) as the program prepares the RAW files for editing in CS3......it's the same as the status that appears when the originals are being imported into Lightroom.....but this doesn't happen appear! There is no conversion taking place the file name is still a NEF file one opened in CS3.
When I finish editing in CS3, only then do I get the option to save changes......and even then the message is - "Do you want to save changes to
****.NEF before closing?" It is after I click "Yes" to this option in CS3 that the file appears as a PSD File. So something strange is happening here.
Is there a way to reset everything factory defaults? Where do I find that option?
Thanks again for your help

Moving images from Lightroom to Photoshop 2014 CC – Color Problems?

For some reason, whenever I select "Edit in Photoshop 2014 CC", the image color is not only extremely different from what's displayed in Lightroom, it's dark and dull. However, if I export the image as a .jpg and then import it into Photoshop 2014 CC the color looks the same as what's displayed in Lightroom and this is with NO color correction.
Why is this happening and how should I be moving files between the two apps? BTW, I shot the images with a Canon T3i that saves the image as a CR2 and JPG.
Thanks!

I'm running Lightroom and Photoshop CS3. "Edit image in Photoshop CS3" works fine for me. I'm on an iMac and had Lightroom installed first, only thing I noticed is it takes PS a little longer to open up.

Photoshop CS5 unable to open for edits from Lightroom 3

Have been experiencing numerous issue with the new LR and Photoshop not playing nice with each other on my Mac Pro w/10.6. Photoshop CS5 is will open in 1 attempt out of 8, and won't open from LR for editing purposes (it did once). Have been using in 32 bit mode to accommodate NIK and Topaz filters. I have reinstalled three times so far. Anyone got any ideas?

Try deleting the prefs folder for Photoshop. Mine was doing something like this where it would not open the image inside
of CS5 when you right click on the image and try an "open with". But it would work from the menu, most of the time. The cost is having to recreate custom settings inside Photoshop but since my CS5 was a new install as was LR3, it did not matter to me. It did require a reboot for the new preference file to fully take effect.
From Adobe's own workaround
5. Re-create the Photoshop preferences files.
Re-create the Photoshop preferences file to eliminate problems that a damaged preferences file might cause.
Note: Re-creating the Photoshop preferences file restores settings to their defaults.
To re-create the Photoshop preferences file:
Quit Photoshop.
Rename the Users\[username]\Library\Preferences\Adobe Photoshop CS3 Settings\Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.psp folder to Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.old.
Start Photoshop. Photoshop creates a new Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.psp file.
If the problem continues, then the Photoshop preferences file isn't the cause. To restore custom settings, quit Photoshop, then delete the new Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.psp file and restore the original name of the previous Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.psp

Transfer of edits from Lightroom to Bridge

I've edited lots of photos in raw in Lightroom (Rated / cropped / adjustments etc.) When viewed in Bridge, the editing does not appear in some cases. The metadata is held in xml files, I can see them. I have even ticked the 'Save metadata to file option'. Clearly I'm doing something wrong, but it is clearly frustrating as the results are inconsistent!

The presence of XMP files does not guarantee that the metadata is up to date.
I would resave metadata to file and see whether this fixes the problem.
All develop edits writen to XMP files should be fully interpretable by ACR and Bridge.

Edit from Lightroom 4 to Elements 10

I recently purchased Lightroom 4 and tried to edit in Elements 10. I got the same error message that has become popular on many forums. Has Adobe come up with a fix for this yet? If not, what is the timeframe for the fix? I purchased Lightroom 4 with the intent of editing in Elements so this is very frustrating. Also, what is RC2 that I have seen referred to on many posts? Thanks for your help.

Have a read of the Lightroom Journal website where all the recent official information is available. The articles there will clarify the present situation.

How can I do a Photoshop batch edit from Lightroom?

In Bridge, I can go to tools > Photoshop > Batch and select a Photoshop Action to apply to some group of photos. Can I do this in Lightroom?

IF you create a droplet you can drag the files directly from the Library Module on to it (Mac)
If part of your process involves making derivative files from Raw then you can specify in the export dialog to run the droplet after processing.

Photoshop from Lightroom 5.5 to CC Phjotoshop 2014.

Updated to 2014 and now when taking a photo partially edited from Lightroom 5.5 to Photoshop 2014 it will not open. Preferences in Lightroom appear to be correct. Any suggestions?

I have the same problem.
Further symptoms:
- When opening the image as SmartObject in PS CC the slide for e.g. brightness can be moved. When moving the focus to an other slider, the previous changed values (brightness) is reset to 0.
- it seems that the auto lens correction in LR5 causes the problem sometimes
I found out a workaround which seems to work:
- close an app:
First I thought it was "Parallels" running. I quit Parallels and everything works fine. Next time the problem occured "Parallels" was not running. So I quit the app "Textwrangler". It solved the problem again. Yesterday I solved it quitting the MacOs-build in "Mail" app, because it was the only other app that was running.
If someone can tell me how the files are exactly taken to Photoshop CC from Lightroom I probably can search for reasons of this behavior.
Any ideas?
Hope my workaround helps you too.
Regards,
Knut

Editing In Lightroom and Uploading with Picasa?

I have about 10 years of photos organized with Picasa, but I recently bought a D90 moved over to RAW capture and processing. I just got Lightroom, and so far I love it. However, if I do cropping or exposure stuff in Lightroom, and then open the folder in Picasa for uploading, I only see the original, unprocessed images. Is there anyway to make Picasa "see" the edits from Lightroom?
I know there's a plugin for Lightroom to upload to Picasa Online directly, but for now I'd like to keep the ability to at least view and organize photos with Picasa.
Thanks!
John Huntington

Thanks for the response.
Picasa actually works just fine with both DNG and Nikon Raw files, and when you upload from Picasa, it just automatically creates JPG's. It's very convenient, but I prefer the editing tools in Lightroom.
The only solution I see now is to do as you say, but then I end up with two sets of photos which is a pain.

Opening CS4 32bit from Lightroom 2 64 bit

I am using Lightroom 2.6 64bit on a Windows 7 64bit PC. I have both 32 & 64 bit versions of Photoshop CS4 installed. I need to use the 32 bit version of CS4 as I have plugins that will not work in the 64 bit version. When I try to open a file for editing from Lightroom it automatically opens in the 64 bit version. I would like to know if there is a way to enable Lightroom to open the files in CS4 32 bit version by default. Thanks to anyone who may be able to help. A Merry Christmas to one and all.

Hi Hal,
Thanks for the prompt reply. I tried it and it worked. Someone else suggested setting the 32bit CS4 as the secondary editor but I have not tried it.

Image will not load from lightroom to CS5

I am having an issue with external editing from lightroom to CS5! From develope>edit in CS5>images does not load! CS5 loads but the MAC finder app comes up asking me to choose a file! Never have I seen this. I looked into the preferences and the external editing, but its in the external editing already. Help!

Make sure your external editor settings link to the application in support files (hidden on Lion) rather than a shortcut.

Edits in Lightroom 5-then in Photoshop CC -back to Lightroom

Hi,
Hope you can help.
1) Imported a raw image from camera (converted to dng) into lightroom 5.
2) performed some edits in the "Develop" module.
3) Did some further external edits in Photoshop CC-by switching to Photoshop CC trough Lightroom -"edit in" Lightroom menu item- Lightroom edits preserved in photoshop.
4 "saved" in Photoshop CC
5) Back to Lightroom-- Original edits from lightroom no longer in edited copy from photoshop.
Question-- How to preserve Lightroom edits? Tried doing a copy of the Lightroom settings before going to Photoshop and then pasting back into the edited copy form photoshop. Did not work out-Don't know which setting to save-saving everthing- terrible result.
Thanks.

When you send to PSD with Lightroom changes, it should render one layer in PSD that represents the original image and any changes you made in LR. So if you're seeing all those changes in PS, I'm not sure how that layer could have things undone to it. Are you sure the changes are represented in PS and not simply the PS showing the image differently? Can you try it with a drastic change in LR like a heavy, heavy vignette and make sure that shows up in PS?
Was that the first trip in to PS for that image? I've seen some inconsistencies before with multiple trips in to PS with XMP turned on where Lightroom gets out of sync with the changes that were made in PS. I did a post about it over on my blog that's a bit complicated so I'll link it here: http://bit.ly/14khoR2. Not sure if the same situation can happen with the DNG.
When you get back in to Lightroom, does the film strip have a little icon on the image that looks like three lines and an exclamation mark? That's the "I'm out of sync" with the metadata warning flag.
If you export to Photoshop as TIFF, do you see the same behavior?
Finally, does it do it on every image or just one? Maybe LR got glitched with what it thought were changes for that specific image and needs a kick.
