Using Edit in, LR3 wont open images in PSE9

Hello,  I'm traveling right now and so not in my natural environment, dont have full resources.  I'm using my Mac Book Pro and doing some light editing.  I can not, however, get Lr3 and PSE9 to play nice together though.  If in Lr3 I request <Edit in PSE9> it only tries to launch PSE even if it is already open but will not open the imaged.  If I drag the images from Lr3 to PSE it will be locked and I can not even create a duplicat layer.  Any suggestions?  Thanks for your help, in advance.
Best,
T

In the LR3 Lightroom>Preferences>External Editing did you define an External Editor (Additional External Editor) and point to the
Adobe Photoshop Elements.app
(Not the Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 with the little arrow on the icon)
As far as when you drag your camera raw images into pse 9, you probably have it set for 16 bits/channel
(bottom of acr dialog where it says Depth)
Set it to 8 bits/channel and then you can use all the functions in the pse 9 editor
(you could also go to Image>Mode and click on 8 bits/channel)

  • Using Photoshop as edit application fails to open image

    I have Photoshop CS selected as my edit application. PS opens to a browse screen and the selected image in iPhoto fails to appear for edit. With the new lib structure I cannot search for the individual image. I can export the mage and edit but then I am forced to import the edited file.
    Ideas? Thanks.

    You can set Photoshop as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically.
    IF you edit it the way you want to, iphoto will not reflect the changes to the file as it won't know about them.

  • Bridge wont open images in PS CC

    Hey there I have just installed PS CC last night along with bridge. both are located on the same drive (c). I am running 64bit. when I click on a DNG it opens in HP media smart photos and jpegs open in windows live photo gallery. I am assuming there is some sort of preference that needs to be fixed but i am not sure where to find that? I looked up the preferences in bridge but couldn't see anything there that lets me select PS as the default for opening images.
    Any help appreciated

    actually I have just found it but will leave this here in case anyone else has this problem. in Bridge go to Edit>Preferences>File Type Associations and select the particular file you are trying to open click on the drop down arrow and select browse. navigate to your program files on the drive you have PS installed in my case the C drive open Adobe the your PS CC file then select photoshop. Hope that makes sense im not very tech savy lol.
    The problem was when bridge installed it has "NONE" as the default file to use on all the file types when looking at the file type associations.

  • Edit Original fails to open image in Photoshop

    Hi Steve
    Finally solved the issue. It was down to InDesign. I had to completely uninstall InDesign and its preferences, then reinstall from disc. The installation had errors so after a restart and reinstallation, downloading updates etc. it now works!! Not sure what is was actually down to though.

  • Can't use "Edit in Photoshop" for RAW images

    I can't get Lightroom's "Edit in Photoshop" feature to work for CR2 RAW files (from Canon Rebel T2i).   I've installed the latest Camera Raw update, and Photoshop can open the RAW files.  However, when I use "Edit in Photoshop" within lightroom, Photoshop (CS5) opens, but then nothing happens.
    Previous threads have mentioned this issue, but none gives a solution that worked for me.  One user reported rebooting as the solution; other solutions involved trashing the preferences files for Photoshop and Lightroom.  I've tried those, but no luck.   The "Edit in Photoshop" feature does work for JPEG files. 
    Any further ideas?  I'm using Lightroom 3, CS5, and Mac OS (Snow Leopard).

    found the answer on another thread and it works!

  • CS6 wont open images, it says it cant find the file.

    Hello, this morning photoshop decided to play up and any new images that i try to open to edit, i get this message. 'Could not complete your request because the file was not found'.    The same problem occours with all file types except .psd files.
    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling photoshop with no luck.
    And incase its relavent, each time i click open the 'enable:' option is blank and 'Format:' is set to photoshop by default. With these settings all files in my finder and greyed out, so i change 'enable' to all readable documents which ungreys them. But when i open them, i get the message mentioned at the start. Please help!

    What’s your OS?
    Boilerplate-text:
    Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by pressing command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift while starting Photoshop until the appropriate dialog appears after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)

  • Upgraded from iphoto9 to iphoto11 using ilife dvd, now it wont open!

    i had iphoto 9 (i think) on mac and i just put ilife 11 dvd in to update the apps especially iphoto to 11. now every new and updated app seems to open fine except iphoto (the only one i use of course)- it wont open and says i need to update software but there is nothing to update. i checked the 'software update' on the computer and says everything is up to date.  So did i just loose all my pictures (no i have not backed them up, that i know of anyway)
    please help! im not at all computer savvy

    Repeat after me...
    I will not upgrade in the middle of a project
    I will not upgrade in the middle of a project
    I will not upgrade in the middle of a project
    Especially as big an upgrade as a whole new OS!!
    O.K. for starters, have you done the routine maintenance, repairing permissions, etc..?
    Have you installed the Pro Application support specifically for Tiger?

  • Is there a way to edit each frame as an Image in FCP

    Hello Folks,
    Just wondering how can I edit each frame as an image in FCP pro... let's say my cam shoots @ 24fps and I import that to FCP, well how can I import these 24frames into a photo editing program such as PhotoShop so I edit each frame and color correct and stuff like that? Also how would I bring it back each frame to FCP?
    What is this process called? Frame editing? I'm not familiar with this because I was told it is duable, i know in Adobe Premier the frames export to a folder where you can edit each image in watever program you want and bring them back to adobe.
    So how can I do this in FCP?
    Appreciate your great help,
    Joey Dee

    just for clarity:
    whilst there is indeed a direct Export option, there is no direct Import option. For Export: use FCP's File > Export > Using Quicktime Conversion.. >> Image Sequence option
    For Import you can first use Quicktime Player's File > Open Image Sequence... option, and export it out to the codec of the original clip/sequence using the File > Export... option. After that you can then import that clip back into FCP.
    its worth noting that this is not "roundtripping", there is no invisible link between the exported frames and the master clip/sequence

  • LR4 won't open images in CS6

    I cannot get LR4 to open images in CS6 using "Edit in". LR opens CS6 with no problem but no image appears. I have tried everything I know - uninstalled both, reinstalled both, cleared out registry, checked I have latest upgrades and both using same ACR (7.2) etc but it still won't work. Using Windows 7 by the way.

  • Itunes, Imovie, Final Cut   ALL WONT OPEN

    So i have recently deleted my quicktime, and then I tried to re-install.
    When i tried to re-install, It told me that quicktime was already on my computer so i went and searched for allll quicktime components i could find and trashed them, thinking i could completely remove it that way and then re-install.
    Now, my ITUNES, my IMOVIE and my FINAL CUT, well basically anything that uses video or audio wont open at all. It says it quit unexpectedly but it doesnt open in the first place.
    I SOMEHOW managed to install quicktime 7 but it wont open either. I guess i deleted something important, I just wish i knew what it was so i could try and restore it.
    PLEASE HELP ME!!!

    You now need to reinstall your entire operating system from the original install disks.
    You will also have to reinstall all Apple applications that install "add-on" QT components, as well as, any third-party components you may require. Depending on your specific method of re-installation, you may also have to purge PLIST files as well. If you really messed with the QT structure imbedded in the OS rather than simply deleting player apps and components that support the imbedded structure externally, I personally would back up all projects and data files I wanted to keep and then wipe and test the hard drive before performing a complete "clean" install. And, even if you only deleted the superficial apps and suppornt components, you will likely have to re-install the packages that would replace everything you've removed and stil may have to purge the PLIST files to get the replaced apps to open properly. Even then, you may come across some broken links to certain components owing to some apparent inconsistancies the in installation/re-installation and software upgrade work flow. (E.g., you may end up with the wrong or a non-functioning iMovie '08/'09 "AppleMPEG2Codec.component" being installed.) In short, as Klaus1 indicated, you may have opend a real "can of worms" from which it may be difficult to extricate yourself.

  • Using Lightroom 5.5 and Photoshop CC2014. Images no longer open in Photoshop when using "edit in" command. Photoshop opens but no image when trying to move between LR and PS. Any suggestions?

    Using Lightroom 5.5 and Photoshop CC2014. Images no longer open in Photoshop when using "edit in" command. Photoshop opens but no image when trying to move between LR and PS. Any suggestions?

    1. You have allowed Apple to auto-upgrade your Mac
    Turn off auto-update here:
    Menu > Apple > System Preferences > App Store
    2. The Icons on your dock are Aliases not real apps
    They point to where the apps really are which is:
    For Pages 5.2.2 in your Applications folder
    For Pages '09 in your Applications/iWork folder
    3. You are alternately opening documents randomly with either version of Pages
    Both Pages have the same file extension .pages and there is no certainty as to which version opens them when you double click on a file.
    right click on the file and choose which version you want to open it
    4. Pages '09 can not open Pages 5 files
    Pages 5 can not open Pages '08 files, and will convert and change Pages '09 and Word files.
    It will also auto save opened files into its own format.
    You can export these back to Pages '09 if you need to:
    Menu > File > Export > Pages '09
    5. Yes Pages 5.2.2 is a marked downgrade
    Pages 5.2.2 has a few improvements but has had over 110 features removed and is buggy.
    Sooner or later you will not be able to open a file or have it damaged in some way and it has a complex obscure file format largely incompatible with everything else, so you will not be able to rescue the contents of your file. If Pages or some third party server/eMail don't trash your file, eventually Apple will do it for you as it did when it released Pages 5 last September. I recommend using Pages '09 for the time being whilst you look for viable alternatives, some are here already and some are on the way.

    Wanting to use Photoshop CS6 to open images directly from iPhoto 11.
    Using OSX10.8.2 and iPhoto 11.  Just installed Photoshop CS6 and want to open
    images directly from iPhoto.    Before I installed PS I was not able to edit photos
    in iPhoto 11.  Nothing happens when I click on ‘edit‘ it is blank. 
    And now it will not work using Photoshop CS6 either.
    From Help Center I have gone to iPhoto/Preferences/ Advanced and chosen Photoshop CS6  to Edit Photos but then cannot find an 'Open' to click? Perhaps this is the problem?
    When I select a photo in iPhoto and click the Edit button - nothing happens.
    Please advise. Glenys

    This may be of help to you:
    Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop.  When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done. 
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window
    that indicates that  PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.  You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements  the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
    I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
    Note:  to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

  • Lightroom (Win7) 4.3 "Edit in" function opens Elements 11 but doesn't open image

    Howdy All,
    I'm running Windows 7 64bit Lightroom 4.3, right clicking on the current open image and selecting "Edit In" "Photoshop Elements 11.exe" which does cause Elements 11 to open but without opening the image originally selected from within Lightroom.  I saw that Mac users need to point the "Edit In" Preferences to the proper location of the Photoshop Elements Editor but I couldn't find info that confirms I'm pointing at the "right" Photoshop Elements 11 file for Windows 7 users.
    Note that I had to manually enter the "Photoshop Elements 11.exe" within the preferences settings because I had previously uninstalled Elements 9 which had been the choice within the preferences setting for "Edit In".
    How do I get this Lightroom4.3/Elements11 sequence to automatically open the RAW image in Elements 11 with the current set of edits made in Lightroom?
    Thanks, Dave
    (My 1st post in this forum!)

    Howdy All,
    After going back into Lightroom/Preferences for the thousandth time, all of a sudden instead of having PhotoshopElements11.exe as the only logical choice, I now had a folder within the Adobe folder called Photoshop Elements 11 (that had its own special Adobe folder icon) and within that folder was no longer "Photoshop Elements11.exe" but now "Photoshop Elements Editor"!  That, of course, was what I was looking for all along.  Once that was selected within Preferences, Elements now pops-up with an image ready for editing.  I'm not sure why Photoshop Elements Editor is now a choice when it wasn't last night.  I had already performed re-installs of both products, several re-boots etc. and never had Editor as a choice.  I hadn't even shut down my PC overnight either!  I was beginning to think that Editor was only a Mac term and that Win7 used some other name that I had yet to discover.  Maybe my PC was just waiting for 2013 :-).  All is well.
