what is acr?
Adobe Camera Raw - the raw convertor in Photoshop CS. 
For compatibility with LR4 you need ACR v6.7.  Go to Help menu, About plug-in > Camera Raw...
If it's not 6.7, then when (in LR4) you try to "Edit in" and choose Photoshop, it should warn you it's not compatible and offer you "Render in Lightroom" or "Open Anyway".  You need to choose "Render in Lightroom".  If you don't see the choice, go to (in LR) Edit menu, Preferences, General tab and click "Reset all warning dialogs". 
Or upgrade to ACR 6.7 - in Photoshop go to Help, Updates.  Note ACR 6.7 requires CS5, which you say you have. 
If it's not that, I don't know what the problem is!

  • Problem exporting from Lightroom 4 to Photoshop CS6

    When using the ctr E keyboard shortcut to edit in PS6 frpm LR4, multiple raw files are generated in PS CS6 and only stop creating when PS is forced closed.  Using the Drop Down menu in LR makes the transfer to PS6 no problem. Am I doing something wrong?

    Maybe a keyboard issue - shortcut key toggling multiple times. But, if you're sure your keyboard is fine, then try this:
    Reset LR preferences:Windows 7/ Vista: The preference setting file is Lightroom 4 Preferences.agprefs, in C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Lightroom\Preferences\. Rename/ move this file to a different location. LR will recreate preferences during next launch. See if this fixes the issue. The reason we're renaming or moving it is so that if it doesn't fix the error, you can move it back there so you don't have to recreate your in-application preferences again
    Reset Photoshop preferences: Follow instructions here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/375776
    See if either or one of the above suggestions works.

  • Edit Lightroom images in Photoshop - problem

    Hi,
    I have recently started to use lightroom to eidt my images. When i go to edit with an image lightroom adjustments  from lightroom 3 into photoshop cs4 it won't allow me to save it as a jpeg from photoshop. I understand that i can change it from 16bit to 8 bit and it will then save as a jpeg but the when i send the prints to a lab (a few different ones i have tried) the images come back dull and flat. The images look fine on my screen.
    Any ideas??
    Cheers

    Hi Geoff,
    Thanks for your reply. I chnaged the colour spce to sRGB and still it has made no difference - won't let me save as a Jpeg. I might chane it 8bit and get a test print done to see if it makes a difference. Thanks for your help.

  • Exporting from Lightroom 4 to Photoshop CS5

    I have a workflow I have followed for a long time now. Things changed and I can't figure out what I did:
    I make adjustments to images in Lightroom 4 then send the image to Photoshop via EDIT-IN method [ctrl-E] on my PC.  I make my changes in Photoshop and then SAVE-AS a TIFF followed by a JPEG.  Normally both files return to Lightroom where I can see them in the filmstrip.  However, I cannot see the JPEG's anymore.  They are not displaying in the filmstrip anymore.  I have made some changes recently in my color settings and I checked my Preferences but I can't see anything that would prohibit the RETURN of the JPEGS.  Any thoughts?
    Thank you!!!

    It is important to understand how Lr works.
    Lr displays photos only when they are imported into Lr. A (seeming) exception is for a Raw image that is edited in Photoshop and <Saved> to the default settings that you selected in external editing of Preferences in Lr. So if the default setting is for PSD and you just hit <Save> in Photoshop, a PSD will be created and automatically imported back into Lr so that it will be displayed there. So, this is not really an exception from the rule that an image has to be imported into Lr - it is an automatic import. This automatic import works only for the <Save> to the default settings;it does not work when you do a <Save As> and select a different file format than the default setting. In your case you did a <Save as> to create a JPG. This JPG will not be automatically imported into Lr, you have to import it manually - either through the Import Dialog or by <Synchronize Folder>.
    Apart from that, and as JimHess said, why do you create a JPG in Photoshop from the same file? If you need a JPG, in Lr just export your PSD as a JPG when you need it.
    I often need JPGs from my file, but I create them only when needed by exporting them to a folder of my choice. Usually I delete them after a while. I don't see a reason why I should have JPGs sitting around on my hard drive(s). They can be created again (from the Raw files or from PSD's/Tiffs) if the need arises.

  • Opening Lightroom images in photoshop cs5 ACR

    Is there any way to edit Lightroom 3.0 images in Photoshop Cs5 ACR? If I choose Edit in Photoshop the image goes directly to photoshop and bypasses ACR. I have tried creating an ACR option in Preferences but cant find the ACR file. Can anyone help?

    No...and there is no reason to do so. Lightroom and Camera Raw share the exact same processing pipeline–assuming you are using the same rev version. The only way to take a raw image into Photoshop and use the Camera Raw dlog is to open as a Smart Object which will give you the SO version of Camera Raw inside the Photoshop document.

  • Problem: importing a transparent image from Photoshop to Premiere.

    Dear Adobe community,
    I am trying to import a transparent image from Photoshop to Premiere Pro CC. Whatever file format I choose to export from Photoshop, Premiere Pro CC will not import the file correctly. When I import is, two things occur: 1) the image gets imported, but the white background is still there or 2) the image gets an error "The importer reported a generic error".
    Does anyone have an idea how I can get an image with a white background transparent into Premiere Pro CC.

    Thanks!

    You need to make sure the image has an alpha channel.
    Images like jpeg dont have an alpha channel.
    Psd or png do and the image has to be RGB.
    Make sure the background in PS is also transparant.

  • Colour shift when exporting from lightroom 5 into Photoshop CS6

    Hi there,
    Having a really weird problem in Lightroom/Photoshop that no amount of Googling can seem to fix.
    When I grade an image for colour in lightroom, and then use the "edit in" function to send the file to Photoshop, the file is a completely different colour.
    Here's an example:
    I'm using SRGB for both Lightroom and Photoshop, and the "preserve embedded profiles" is selected for RGB, CMYK, and gray.
    If anyone can shed some light on this, it would be great. I don't want to have to use ProPhotoRGB, because most of my work is delivered online.
    Thanks in advance
    John

    I am also having this issue with the "Merge to HDR Pro" function in both LR5.2 and PSCC. When the image is viewed at 50% image size in the HDR app everything appears fine. However, once you start to zoom in the image begins to crop out segements starting on the right hand side. See the screen shots below:
    Image at 50%
    Image at 66%
    Image at 100%

  • Help needed exporting from Lightroom 4 to Photoshop CS6

    I'm running LR 4.4 and Photoshop CS6 on an iMAC and I'm having issues with the edit in photoshop option.  Used to be able to right click and image, go to Edit In and choose Photoshop CS6 and Photoshop would open and the image would open.  I could then make my changes and save them and those changes would copy back over to Lightroom.  Now when I choose Edit In>Photoshop, Photoshop opens but the image never opens.  It would prompt saying Open Anyway or Render using Lightroom.  If I clicked Open Anyway, the image would NOT open in Photoshop.  If I clicked Render using Lightroom, the image WOULD open in Photoshop.  Well now I've upgraded my software and it's no longer prompting me to Render using Lightroom.  Can someone help either fix the root probelm or tell me how to get my raw files to Render using Lightroom?

    Same problem here on the PC side.

  • Exporting from Lightroom 4 to Photoshop Elements (Both trial version)

    I have downloaded both the trial versions of the software and wanted to experience how they interact with each other.
    I cant seem to be able to export my file from lightroom to photoshop though
    Is this possible with the trial versions?

    Trial version should make no difference.
    One does not "Export to Photoshop" - Export is for one-way output.
    Photoshop, or Elements, or other editor is called in as a partner program via "Edit In..." and the options for this are set up in LR Preferences / External Editing tab.
    If Elements is not automatically appearing there, and you don't want to re-install anything in order to resolve that, you can instead manually set that up in the "additional editor" section below. Choose the Elements editor program file, a filetype and colourspace and bitdepth, and name this setup as an external editing preset. This preset then appears in the Edit In.. section of the context menu when you right-click on a photo in LR. A new file is made on disk according to your specifications, in the same folder, reflecting your LR adjustments to date, and Elements is started with this file open for editing. Save and close when finished (not save as). LR now shows a new image version, next to the original you started with, reflecting your external edits. These edits (any layers etc) remain available for further work thereafter via the "edit original" option.
    So you can go back and forward as required between the two programs, always remembering that these two KINDS of adjustment / editing, are physically independent.

  • Problems exporting Raw to use in Photoshop

    I searched past posts and found this problem but did not find a solution. When I export a file from iphoto 6 in raw photoshop will not recognize it, either as photoshop raw or camera raw. When I open it by setting all document in the dialog box, the file is greyed out. I know I can convert the file to a tiff or a jpeg but I really want to edit it as a raw file.
    Thanks,
    Bill

    Hello Harrison
    i have the same problem. i have the panasonic FZ30 and the RAW and TIFF files are not supported by iphoto 6. the TIFF files from the previous version of this brand was recognized and can be imported. the only way i can import the two file types is with image capture and only TIFF is recognized. the RAW files have a label but no image just blank.
    my solution came to me when i looked at a photoshop CS book. i had already downloaded the new RAW plugin from adobe for elements 3. launch elements 3, browse for file, select file and open. image appeared with all relevant data on how it was shot. clicked "open" at the bottom of the page and there was the picture i shot. double-clicking on the file only showed me a greyed out nothing picture.
    i repeated this two more times to make sure it worked and it did. it might work for you.

  • Problems exporting an edited image to iMovie

    When I edit an image, and then export it to use in Imove, all of the stacked versions go into Imovie.  How do I solve this problem. (I have 'unstacked' the versions in Aperture.

    What you say is happening is hard to follow. If you export a version from Aperture a single file of the  type spesified in the export ipreset s created from the version, JPG, TIFF, whatever.
    When exporting a version stacks have no bearing on the outcome. A version can be part of a stack but when exported (unless the stack was selected) only that one version is made into an external file.
    So  what format and export preset are you using? When the image is exported and you look at the file with preview before you import that file into iMovie what do you see?
    How are you actually doing the export? Léonie asked you  but your answer was vague. You wrote back that you were exporting the version as described but Léonie described three different ways to export.
    If you could respond to these questions we might be able to clear up the problem.

    I'm trying to export a raw image from lightroom 5.6 to Photoshop cc 2014 2.1.  I right click to export menu in lightroom as I've always done to export to Photoshop.  Photoshop opens, but it can't open file, window opens to find a file to open.  I'd like this to export my lightroom images to edit in photoshop as it has always been able to do for me.  What fix do you recommend?

    Hi Ashley Clavette,
    The Initial view setting works perfectly when the file is opened in Acrobat after setting the desired Initial View.
    When you upload the file onto Wordpress, and view it on that website in the browser...it might be using a different pdf handler program which might be causing this issue ( it would be helpful, if you could provide the screenshot) , however when you download the pdf again from wordpress server...and open in Acrobat/Reader...then what  exactly happens ?  Does the pdf opens in the desired Initial View setting?

  • Lightroom won't open an image in Photoshop CS2

    I have Photoshop 1.1 on a PC running Windows XP. I can't open a Lightroom image in Photoshop CS2 through the "photo" menu because the menu selection to open an image in Photoshop is dimmed. Also in "Preferences" in the "external editors" tab it says "Photoshop not found." My Photoshop is on the same drive as Lightroom. Am I wrong in assuming LR should open an image in CS2?
    In a related matter I opened a Photoshop customer support case about this, but did not receive a reply. Is this typical of Adobe? Isn't this the kind of question they should answer even without a paid support plan?

    Richard,
    What I did when faced with a similar situation was to go to Control Panel, and select Add or Remove Programs, then select Uninstall or Change for Adobe Photoshop CS2, then when prompted whether to Uninstall or Repair, choose Repair. This will fixup all the registry entries that appare to be missing from your system.
    Works for me at least.

  • Can I export a Lightroom curve preset into Photoshop?

    Is there a way to export a lightroom curve into photoshop? I tried it but photoshop won't import the .xmp curve adjustment.

    See my reply on CGTalk (and I'm sure, you'll hate me for it). Aside from that, please follow some advise laid out here and don't cross-post. You're only wasting everyone's time with scattering posts all over the place - your own and ours.
