Opening an image to edit from within Lightroom

Hi there
I have just installed Lightroom 5 on my iMac running Yosemite.
When I click on 'edit in', I have the option of opening PS CS5 or Elements 13, both of which are installed.
If I choose CS5, the image opens OK. When I choose Elements, the image doesn't open for editing.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Peter

Go to Preferences, then click on the External Editing tab, then under Additional External Editor click on "Choose" and then (remember, this is on Windows, not Mac) point to PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe

Cant move or rename images or folders from within lightroom 5.

Lightroom wont allow me to move or rename either single images or folders within lightroom. Keep getting an unknown error occurred message. All images are currently on an external hard drive. Any ideas?

Yes. All images are imported into lightroom and editable. Green light is also showing on the folders tab just the same as with my c drive. I can move/rename images and folders etc from explorer but then have to locate them for lightroom to find.

Trying to post images to Facebook from within Lightroom

I know that this will work, but unfortunately I have not been able to get this to work, and after spending nearly 3 hours with technical support, I am no closer than when I started the call.
I get the following error message
This content is currently unavailable
The page you requested cannot be displayed right now. It may be temporarily unavailable, the link you clicked on may have expired, or you may not have permission to view this page.
Has anyone seen this or know what to do with it since technical support kept getting this and did not know what to do?
I am on Windows 7 with latest updates along with Lightroom 3.4.1 on a 64 bit system with 12 gig of ram. Lightroom was originally installed on D drive but per support, it is now installed on the C drive which resulted in the same behavior.
The account setup on Facebook appears to be corrrect and the image appears to post until clicking on the "view on Facebook" is selected.
Thanks,
David

I recently switched to Aperture. When I opened an image I imported from iPhoto, I don't have an option to edit it. Top of "Adjustments" tab says "image offline". How can I adjust Aperture so I can make adjustment to my iPhoto images?

I never tried importing from the iPhoto library as referenced images. I wonder if Aperture can access images stored in an iPhoto library package? Even if it would work, it sounds like a bad thing to do.
You might consider starting over and this time have Aperture manage the images. That will copy them to the Aperture library, leaving the iPhoto library untouched. This assumes you have sufficient space to make a complete copy of all the images in your iPhoto library plus another copy of each image that Aperture makes as the preview image. You can then back up your iPhoto library (two backup copies, just to be sure) then remove it from your hard drive when you start getting too low on space. As I write this I don't know where your iPhoto or Aperture libraries are/will be located so I'm assuming you have them on your HD.

Can I change Filename from within Lightroom?

I am in the Trial Period with Lightroom, having just used it for two days. I assume that one must be able to change a photo's filename from within Lightroom, but I surely can't see how to do it, having looked in the Help file and through all the menus.
Here's what I'm trying to do. When I take photos, I create a descriptive filename that tells me what's in the image. Then I import a big batch. What I want to do is to create slideshows from those images in a different order from the importing order: maybe it's slide 23, then 15, then 10, etc. I was hoping to do this by sticking sort numbers on the front of the filenames (changing the filenames), and then sorting on the filenames to create the desired slideshow sequence.
But, I can't find a way to change the filename within LR. If I do it outside LR, then I lose whatever work I've already done on the images.
Am I overlooking some obvious better way to do this?
Thanks
Bob Chapman
I'm running LR 1.2, Windows XP, 2 GB RAM, big disks.

Even easier, select the image or images and press F2 to rename. <[email protected]> wrote in message news:[email protected].. > Hi Bob, > > To change the filename for an individual file select the file from grid > view and look over at the Metadata panel on the right side of the screen. > Click on the filename in the metadata panel and it should change > appearance to show that it can now be edited.

Saving/Opening documents to SharePoint 2013 from within Office 2010 applications

I was hoping that Office 2010 would work nicely together in terms of saving to and opening documents from SharePoint 2013. Alas, I was disappointed and somewhat surprised to see that opening/saving documents in SharePoint from within Office still
involves copying, pasting and hacking the URL of the document library in the Save or Open dialogue box. I was fully expecting that Office 2010 would have display some sort of SharePoint navigation so you could view your sites and document libraries in a similar
way to folders. A mature document management system this ain't!
Anyone have any advice on how to improve the Open/Save to/from SharePoint experience in Office 2010? I'm open to the idea of Office add-ins whether third party or official Microsoft.
Thanks in advance

Thanks for the reply, but that's from within SharePoint, not Office?
An example scenario: I create a new document or receive a document, I'm in the document, and I want to publish the document to a document library in SharePoint. At the moment I would have to save the document, load up SharePoint, navigate to the document
library and then go through the upload process.
I should really be able to, from within Word, select File - Save to SharePoint (say) and then be able to navigate to the document library I want to publish to. Really basic DMS stuff that I'm surprised isn't there!
Similar thing to opening a document. I should be able to Open from SharePoint, navigate to the document library via some sort of navigation box, and open it.
Thoughts appreciated.

Editing images in PS CS6 within Lightroom 5

If I import my raw images into my Lightroom 5 library and edit some of them in CS6 within Lightroom 5 by using the tab. How can I save them from CS6 back into my Lightroom 5 Library after making further adjustments?
Many thanks!

In the Library there is Sort Order and with some settings the edited file will be at the end rather than next to the original file. I use Capture Time and they return exactly.

Image editing from within DWCS3

Greetings~
For some reason I can not edit images from within DWCS3. Any time I try to launch the "inhouse" editing tools from the "Properties" pannel I get an error that reads:
"Unable to launch C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS3\Photoshop.exe. Please be sure that this application exsists and that there is enough memory to run it."
The strangest part about it is I have removed Photo Shop from my list of Editors through the Preferences. The only editor that I have in the "Editors" list is Fireworks which is set to Primary).
Any ideas? Thanks guys/gals!

Which operating system are you on?
Can you launch Fireworks the conventional way, via a shortcut?

PS5 crashes when loading an image to edit from LR3

I'm using LR3 and PS5 in my workflow. When in LR3 I try to "edit in Adobe Photoshop CS5" (CTRL +e) CS5 launches, I then get the "reading camera RAW format" dialogue, and when it finishes I get the Windows "Adobe Photoshop CS5 has encountered a problem and needs to close" dialogue. I can open the same image from within CS5 directly no problem, or open it to CS5 from Bridge.
Does anyone know the fix for this? Is it a known problem with Adobe are working on?
I'm running Windows XP SP3 on a PC with 3GB of memory.
Thanks in anticipation,
Rowteight

Go into your editor settings in Lightroom and see if there's anything amiss. Also, export a photo using those settings and try to edit using CS5 independent of Lightroom.

RAW not opening in PS when triggered from within LR

When I select a RAW image in Lightroom, right click and select "edit in" –> "Edit in Photoshop CC 2014", Photoshop launches but does not open my image.
I would expect that it takes me to the Camera RAW module or at least throws me a comprehensive error message but – nothing.
Any Ideas?

Hallo Skandal1986gr,
erst einmal herzlichen Dank für die Antwort und für den Hinweis, dass ich hier auch deutsch schreiben kann. Das macht vieles einfacher.
Neuinstallation ist so ein Thema. Ich würde ja gerne, habe aber fast immer ein Zeitproblem. Muß schließlich arbeiten mit der Software.
Wenn ich jetzt ps cc 2014 dainstalliere, was passiert mit meinen Plugins?
Muss ich die auch alle neu installieren oder erkennt die Installationsroutine den verbleibenden Photoshop-Ordner und "füllt ihn auf"?
OS ist übrigens Mac OS X 10.9.4

Opening files through mini bridge, from within photoshop.

When opening files/images from within photoshop use adobe mini bridge, the files open slowly with a long delay?
Can't figure out why, but when files are open directly from photoshop it is lightning fast.
Running on a iMac OS X Yosemite
Version 10.10.2

Okay.. Yeah, that's why I'm running Windows 7 still
This may have to do with some of the bugs Apple introduced into Yosemite. They are working on a fix. Can't really think of much else, other than make sure everything is up to date. Maybe someone with more knowledge of Mini Bridge will find this post.

Please confirm, I cannot open RAW images in CS2 from EOS 50D

Platform: XP Pro SP3
After shooting my first session using the new Canon EOS 50D DSLR I cannot open RAW images in Photoshop CS2. Canon told me there was a free upgrade available to replace my current RAW editor ver. 3.7 BUT it appears from what I've read that I must buy CS4 to open RAW files created in the new Canon 50D. Thank you for your efforts.

> ... from what I've read that I must buy CS4 to open RAW files created in the new Canon 50D.
Considering the $$ you paid for the 50D, updating CS2 to CS4 for the sake of all the improvements in ACR would be well worth the $200.

Fragment fields suddenly become editable from within the FORM

When we added a schema to a form that contains fragments, suddenly the fragment fields became visible and editable from the FORM. The fields in the fragment are normally not editable unless you edit the fragment. (Designer)
This is a huge concern for us, especially as we have new developers coming and going on this project. It is my understanding that fragments should only be editable within the fragment xdp, not from within a form that the fragment is on.
This is a problem that we can repeat / reproduce. Would like to know if it's a bug.
Please advise,
Thanks,
Elaine

Hi Elaine,
I thought this was a good thing that you can override fragment properties in the document that uses it. Do you get a message "This fragment reference has local overrides to one or more properties of the source fragment" in the Warnings tab.
If you don't want the fragments properties to be override you could wrap the fragment in a custom object.
We have a fragment that has a multiline textfield with a character count and we use the ability to override the properties to update the databinding, caption, traversal, etc., this is then wrapped in a custom object so they can't update what they shouldn't.
The custom object looks something like this;
<subform usehref="..\..\Fragments\MultiLineTextField.xdp#som($template.form1.multiLineTextField)" name="name" x="0in" y="0in">
<bind match="dataRef" ref="$"/>
<draw name="questionNumber">
</draw>
<field name="value">
<traversal>
<traverse operation="next" ref="$"/>
</traversal>
</field>
</subform>

Buying prints from within Lightroom?

I'm a pro and currently buy quite a few prints for clients from within Aperture. The convenience, price and quality is great. However I'm switching to Lightroom and the only thing that seems to be missing is buying prints from inside the application. I've looked for a plugin with no luck. I guess there probably is one? The other option is to export pictures and upload them to a lab but that would complicate the workflow and take longer. Any ideas? I'm in the UK. Thanks.

Hey Michael, I've been in touch with a few labs in the UK to see if they had an API (software interface for developers), but none seemed interested in allowing someone to creata a plugin for their services. You could look at Smugmug or Zenfolio as services for print buying, and while there are publish plugins for these, it's still a step extra to order.

Edit in Photoshop CC from within Lightroom 4.4

I have replaced a Windows 7 installation of Photoshop CS4, with CS6, then with Photoshop CC. Now, when I right-click an image in LR to Edit in Photoshop, the menu option for Photoshop appears in the submenu as the Windows pathname to the old CS4 program, and I don't see an option to Edit In Photoshop CC. Clicking on the option that's presented, and selecting to edit a copy, simply creates a new PSD in LR, then nothing. Photoshop doesn't fire up.
[Edit] I have the same problem trying to 'Open with' in Bridge CC - it tries to use the old CS4 filepath to open Photoshop.
I've tried re-installing Lightroom but that hasn't fix it.
Please tell me how to update the 'Edit In' menu to show an option to run PSCC?
Thanks for your help...

Problem was solved after a chat with Adobe Support. It was a matter of changing a couple of filepaths in the Registry.
