No presets working in Lightroom 4

I downloaded the trial version yesterday, but I am not able to use any presets, the default ones or some I downloaded. I put the mouse over them and the image in the navigation bar does not change, nor does the picture change if I click on them. How can I make them work? Thanks!

The main image does not change on roll-over, i.e. putting the mouse over them. Roll-over only changes the image in the Navigator.
You have to click on the preset to apply it to the image. But not every preset is visible, particularly not when you are not viewing the image at 1:1.
Which preset are you trying to apply? What is your image? is it a Raw image or a JPG? And is this in the Develop Module? Or which Module if not Develop. Give us some more details.

  • Photo bundle serial will not work in lightroom 5.4.

    I just bought a photo bundle membership but the serial number will not work in lightroom 5.4.
    I hade a tril version of LR5.4 which has now run out so I purchased the PhotoShop LightRoom bundle but the serial number will not activate LightRoom.
    I get a big red x
    Can any body help[ plaease.
    Regards
    Rik

    You have to install Lightroom 5.4 through the CC Application Manager. Before you can do this proceed as follows.
    Uninstall the LR 5.4 trial (Mac drag the application from your Application sub folder) win use the Control Panel feature to uninstall. Your user presets, catalog etc will remain in place.Reboot your system then open the CC Application Manager and the LR download should be available for download. You will not have to actually input the serial number.
    Both applications are the same just the licensing procedure is different in the Creative Cloud.

  • Presets Missing in Lightroom 4 on my Mac

    Hi!
    When I am in the develop mode on my Mac in Lightroom 4, the presets are missing.  I am new to LR4, and also to my Mac, however, I am very familiar with LR as I was using LR3 on a PC prior to this purchase.  How do I get them to show up?  It appears that they are there, but, I cannot open them or expand them.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!!

    Hi Victoria,
    I tried to reply to you, but, it looks like it didn't go through.  Anyway, I think I have figured my issue out.  My issue was this, when I was in the Develop module and wanted to use the Lightroom default presets, such as Lightroom B&W presets, I could see the group headings and an arrow, but, could not expand it to see the actual presets.
    So, I went under the Lightroom dropdown and into Preferences and then into the Presets folder and clicked on the button that says Reset all default develop settings. 
    I am not 100% sure that this is what worked, but, they are now there and available.
    Thanks for your question.  I am relieved that they are now there.

    Now, when I go to work in Lightroom 5, I have no pictures.
    Could you provide more details? Is this the copy of your catalog, or the original catalog? Are you sure you didn't accidentally open some other catalog? If you try the catalogs under File->Open Recent, do you find your photos?
    I did check the back-ups, and all the pictures are there, however with a ? on every photo. What do I do to get my photos back into my original Lightroom 5 without the ? marks?
    Backups will work properly if you restore the catalog file and the photos to their ORIGINAL locations.

  • Can I install presets on the Lightroom trial version?

    Can I install and use presets on the Lightroom trial version?

    Yes. The trial version is the full version of Lightroom, and it is fully functional for the 30 day trial period.

  • Edit In doesn't work in Lightroom 5.5 from Photoshop CC 2014

    Edit In doesn't work in Lightroom 5.7.1 from Photoshop CC 2014 even after uninstalling and reinstalling both LR and PS (2014.2.2). Suggestions?

    Thanks for your response. When you choose "edit in PS" in LR, PS will open but the file from LR never opens. I had this problem before and uninstalling LR and PS then reinstalling fixed the problem. The problem has returned and the above solution does not work. I even used "Adobe CC Cleaner Tool" from Adobe to now avail. Opening PS first does not help.
    Also the Automate->Photmerge function no longer works. Maybe Adobe will be able to help on when tech support is available on Monday.

    Why Photoshop stopped working with Lightroom and how to fix it?

    As I am editing photos in lightroom and just right click on the photo to select to edit in photoshop the opting shows up in gray out  but it isn't available for selection anylonger. It was working just fine a few days ago.
    Thank you for your reply!!!

    I'd be grateful if one of you gurus shed some light on the possible cause.
    Cheers and happy new year!

    That panic was not caused by third-party software, and it's the kind that is usually caused by a memory fault. If your model has user-replaceable memory, and you've upgraded the memory modules, reinstall the original memory and see whether there's any improvement. Be careful not to touch the gold contacts. Clean them with a mild solvent such as rubbing alcohol. Aftermarket memory must exactly match the technical specifications of the machine.
    Apple Diagnostics or the Apple Hardware Test, though generally unreliable, will sometimes detect a fault. A negative test can't be depended on. Run the extended version of the test, if applicable.

  • New Flip minoHD camera at 60fps. Will PE9 preset work?

    Flip has recently introduced their new mino HD video camera that has a frame rate of 60fps. The new PE9 has a preset for the Flip minoHD, however this preset is set at 30fps. Will the PE9 preset work with this camera? Are there any special editing issues with video at 60fps that I should know about? If I keep the output resolution to 1280x720 will that help in rendering speed? (Does PE9 support "smart" rendering?). I'm new to video editing so I hope these questions make some sense.

    I'm not quite sure of Flip's strategy, going to 60 fps. It's not like the human eye can see the difference between 30 and 60 fps. So it would seem to my limited understanding that you're just creating  a lot of extra video frames!
    Oh well.
    Many camcorders use 60i. This is technically not 60 fps, but it's really just 30 integrated frames (each frame composed of two interlaced frames). But this is based on the old TV standard, back when ALL TV video was composed of integrated frames.
    The Flip, though, seems to spec out with 60 progressive frames -- or 60 genuine frames per second. Hmm.
    Anyway, I'd assume you can use it with one of the existing Flip presets. But I'd sure like to hear the definitive answer for my own personal reference.
    As for Smart Rendering -- Technically smart rendering means that the same video goes in as comes out, except when effects are added. So, no, Premiere Elements doesn't do this with Flip video. Though it does seem to edit Flip video natively, which is very different.
    Editing video natively means that the program works with the video in its native state, without constant rendering. Native editing is indicated by the fact that, when you add the clip to a timeline in a properly set up project, there will not be a red line above the clips.
    Sorry for the long post, but you've asked some very deep questions!

  • Will Photoshop Touch work with Lightroom?

    I have read that Photoshop Touch for the iPad will work with Adobe CS5.  Will it also work with Lightroom?  Being able to easiy import photos etc.?  thanks,

    Hi Evertsa,
    Sorry for the delay. There is a plug-in for Photoshop that allows you to import Photoshop Touch project files into Photoshop CS5 on a computer by transferring the file through a the Creative Cloud website (https://creative.adobe.com/) and importing with a special plug-in. If you sent out jpeg copy of a project from within PS Touch to somewhere you could import it on a computer into your Lightroom catalog that would work (via email would be the easiest), but its not natively setup to work with Lightroom.
    Check out this doc that describes the workflow with Photoshop CS5.

    Hope that helps,

  • Can't dump cards and work in Lightroom simultaneously

    Ever since installing Snow Leopard I can't dump cards from my reader and have Lightroom running.  If I'm working in Lightroom and I put a card in the reader, the card doesn't show up.  I have to quit Lightroom in order to dump cards and I'd like to be working in Lightroom while dumping cards.  I need to multitask.  Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Do you mean:
    (1) That the LR import process doesn't start automatically when you insert a card, or
    (2) If you insert a card and start the LR import process manually (via the Import button) that the card doesn't show up in the available sources?
    If it's (1) then check your preferences general settings...be sure "Show import dialog..." is checked.
    If it's (2) then is the card mounted as a drive on your Mac? If not it possibly indicates some sort of hardware issue.
    It's also confusing what you mean by "I have to quit Lightroom in order to dump cards...". This implies the card is mounted as a drive. Where the's destination you are "dumping" the card? And what do you do after the card is "dumped".
    What version of Lightroom and OS X are you running?

  • Anyone having problems getting Photoshop CC14 to work with Lightroom 5.5?

    I installed Photoshop CC 2014, but Lightroom wouldn't export photos to it. Spent 3hours on the phone with Adobe support, they wiped all my Adobe apps without warning me and I lost all my presets. Was told higher level support would contact me - didn't happen. System still not fixed, even after an hour trying to get to the right person today. I've never had a problem installing before - anyone else having a similar issue? Who do I contact for better "customer service" (or does it exist)?

    Hi David_B,
    Thanks for your reply! I've installed PS many times (since version 3, I think), and nothing like this has ever happened. I use and teach PS and LR for a living. The tech person I spoke with told me it is not unusual to have this happen when upgrading to CC 2014.
    What happened is that PS CC2014 would not open the image in PS if I used the Photo>Edit In>PS 2014 command unless I used Photo>Edit In>Open as Smart Object. Once opened as a smart object, PS would not save the file. I think it said Error 2.
    The tech took control of my computer, removed PS and LR and all the associated files a few times. He told me I'd have to have a high level person help me, but they didn't call me, so I phoned in. After waiting an hour to get to the correct person (not a high level tech) he said he'd have to uninstall everything again and start over and that it would take over an hour. I don't have the time right now to fix it as I'm headed out of town until the end of the month to teach LR.
    In the meantime, LR works, but I'm using a trial version that expires in 30 days. It exports to PS ok, but I had to reload all my plug-ins, and apparently LR can't find Photomatix. LR is not installed in my usual applications folder - the tech put it on my system backup drive.
    My case number is: 185696477
    Thanks so much for your willingness to help!

  • Can I convert a Camera Raw preset to a Lightroom preset?

    I have number of presets in Camera Raw that I use in PS compositing. However, I'd like to use some of them in Lightroom now for my photography. Is there a way to convert them? The Camera Raw presets are saved in an .xmp file, while the Lightroom preset have a .lrpreset extension. They have similar information, but the formatting is a bit different (the .xmp looks more like an XML file). Any ideas?

    Thanks David, that worked. I had been using Save Image in Camera Raw and didn't know why the .xmp sidecar wasn't being saved. I do wish there was a more automated way to do this, but my searches have come up empty. Lightroom puts a, presumably, unique ID at the beginning of each preset that the Camera Raw versions don't have, and who knows where it's generated from.

  • Lost preset  tone curve - Lightroom Default

    I think I deleted by accident. I cannot find any way to restore factory defaults. Surely there must be. Tried right clicking but that does not work. I am running LR 1.1
    Any suggestions?

    Lee, thank goodness I run Powerquest image backup. I was able to open the backup browser and find the preset on the backup drive and restore it. Never did find a way to do this within Lightroom.
