What is Adobe Photoshop LIghtroom 3?

I'm just upgrading to PS Elements 10 and now along comes (in the package!) an ad and 30-day trial CD of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3. What's this? An add on to PS Elements? Replaces Elements? Thanks so much for our answers! George

Lightroom is excellent but don’t bother with LR3 get the Beta LR4 version free download and try it out until the end of March.
Lightroom provides a total workflow for photographers and combines the best features of Bridge and Adobe Camera Raw (full CS5 features). Something Elements cannot match.
Lightrooms’s non-destructive editing tools come in an intuitive interface meaning little recourse is needed to pixel editing.

I used to have an OLD Photoshop cd but it has been lost and my program is no longer on cd. I talked with some photographer friends and this is what one of them told me to get: Adobe Photoshop Lightroom and CS CC... HELP please?

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom has encountered a problem and needs to close. (ver 1.4.1)

I completed a search for this problem here and other forums, and found very useful information, however, I still need help. My laptop is an HP Pavillion dv1000, Intel Centrino, Windows XP, 1.24G of RAM; Camera is a Canon 5D, shooting JPEG only.
After a couple of weeks enjoying a vacation in the Caribbean, it was time to load all the new pics in the computer. I removed the card from my camera and using windows explorer, downloaded all pics in MyPictures folder. I created a new folder for this trip, and while I was there, I decided to reorganize several folders from previous trips. I renamed and moved folders around, deleted pictures, etc. (I believe that all the changes that I made created my problem.)
Once I finished all the changes with my folders, I launched Lightroom (ver 1.4.1) with the idea of synchronizing the folders and start working on my new pictures. After apx 8 seconds, I got the message: Adobe Photoshop Lightroom has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
After a google search, I found a lot of potential answers to my problem, including this one, which I tried:
"It might also be worth trying a temporary test catalog, just to see whether it's specific to that catalog. To do so, go to File menu > New Catalog and create a new catalog somewhere easy - Desktop perhaps - and just try importing a few photos into that test catalog and see if you can get it to freeze. I'm wondering if the catalog's been damaged slightly by that initial unexpected close, and if so, we'll see if we can get that sorted out for you."
I did exactly that (created a test catalog) and I don't get the error. I am not clear on what does that mean. Could you help me understand it? What do I need to do to use my old catalog? Is it damaged? How can I fix it? Did I loose all the work that I did in my previous pictures?
If I go back to my original catalog, I still get the error.
Thank you in advanced for your assistance.
Tony

Tony,
Here's something you might try:
Create a new, empty catalogue and try File->Import from catalog... and specify your broken one as input. With luck the damage will be left behind.
If that doesn't work, try deleting or renaming your preferences file. Look here for its location.
And if that doesn't work, try deleting or renaming your presets folder. See that same website for details.
Let us know how you make out.

I did not try the free evaluation program of adobe photoshop lightroom 5 on my mac, but since i downloaded it long ago, it will not allow me to try it now

has anyone had this problem and know how to work on the program?
i recently got a macbook pro, migrating to it from windows XP pro. its operating system is OS 10 X; however, the most up to date mac OS is really (on my mac) called OS mavericks.
when i downloaded adobe reader for mac--some months ago--adobe gave me the chance to download adobe photoshop lightroom 5 as a trial evaluation. the download took a lot of time.
i never had the time to try this application yet, and now i need to do that.
the reason i have not yet tried it is because i am still in the learning curve learning how to use my macbook pro.
I REALLY NEED TO WORK ON SOME PHOTOGRAPHS! the free mac apps for photos have proved to be difficult and very time consuming. they do not have capacities to perform tasks like i want, for instance, to compress a photo, or to work on editing some photos as a batch operation. in fact, i cannot even "select" a number of photos that i need to work on. it is driving me crazy!
at this time, i need to try this product. i opened it, but the only thing that i can do is provide the license number, as though i bought the product. I NEVER TRIED THE EVALUATION COPY. not one time at all.
since i never tried it out, what can i do to try it now?
must i uninstall the program from my macbook and then reinstall the trial version? would that work since i work at home, so therefore adobe would recognize my IP address.
thanks for any help!

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64-bit has stopped working [Lightroom 5 Beta]

I was looking for a Lightroom 5 Beta forum but am unable to find one. Today, I downloaded and installed LR5 Beta on my new HP Envy 64-bit Windows 8 machine. After running an installation, I started the program. At first, it asked about opening a catalogue during which time I created a new one as I have no intention of using my LR4 catalogue for LR5B. After creating the catalogue, it stated the following:
"Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64-bit has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
After it closed, I tried opening it again. Same result. No matter how many times I tried, the program would not open. I tried reinstalling the program to no avail using the "repair" feature. Finally, I just removed the program.

Fujifilm Tethered Capture Plug-in for Adobe Photoshop Lightroom

Hi!
Today Fujifilm shared "Tethered Capture Plug-in for Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom®". And they shared only 1 exe file, which i can't open on my Mac=). I try open it on PC, but it can't open without HS-V5 ( i needn't it, because it work only on Windows)
They write:
To use "Tethered Capture Plug-in for Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom®" you need to purchase "Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom® 5".
*For customers who don't have the HS-V5, "FUJIFILM Tether Shooting Plug-in" will be able to be purchased at Adobe Exchange site."
So...i already purchased Adobe CC for photographers. I try find it in Adobe Exchange, but doesn't find it.
May be somebody know anything?
Or may be somebody knows about tethering future with fujifilm X-T1 in new Lightroom 6?

The current situation seems to be this:
You are licensed to use the plug-in on a Mac or a Windows PC if you have purchased and installed H5-VS software. Since H5-VS is only a Windows product the download for the plug-in is a Windows EXE because when you run that EXE it'll check for the H5-VS software installation and if it doesn't see it, it'll stop, so to be successful in extracting the Mac plug-in you have to use a Windows PC and have purchased some Windows software.
You can examine the contents of the LRPLUG.EXE by renaming it to something like LRPLUGIN.EXE.ZIP and opening it with 7ZIP; however, the contents aren't something where you can just extract and run w/o the license check.
The only way forward seems to be to purchase the H5-VS software and install it on Windows and then download and run the LRPLUG.EXE on that same Windows computer to extract the plug-in installers, and then run those on the appropriate platform.
However, the H5-VS software doesn't appear to be for sale, anywhere, although the Fuji people do seem to hint they will have a solution at some point in the near future--perhaps it is only available in Japan ATM.
Most of this information was gleaned from the download page for the plugin, here:
Tethered Capture Plug-in for Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom® (Windows 8 / 8.1 / 7 SP1, Mac OS X 10.7-10.10) | Fujifilm Glob…
Which is the page you get to after agreeing to the terms and conditions of downloading the plug-in from this page:
Tethered Capture Plug-in for Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom® (Windows 8 / 8.1 / 7 SP1, Mac OS X 10.7-10.10) | Fujifilm Glob…
The bottom line is that while the tethering plug-in is for both a PC and a Mac the licensing dependency is on a Windows-only program so the plug-in installers are contained within a Windows-only program and the missing link is how to acquire the required H5-VS Windows program to satisfy the licensing requirement for the plug-in packaging utility so it'll extract the plug-in installers for each platform.
From what the pages, say, there is also going to be a version of the plug-in available on Adobe Exchange that won't require having H5-VS already, I guess, but that is not available, yet, either, so lots of announcements, and mostly a lack of follow-through..

Adobe photoshop CS3 versus adobe photoshop lightroom 2.3

I already own adobe photoshop CS3. Is it worthwhile to get adobe photoshop lightroom 2.3? Is it easier to use?

You can check out some of the free Lightroom tutorial videos here
http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/lightroom/articles/lir2am_videotutorials.html
to get a sense of how workflow goes in Lightroom, and what Lightroom can do. I also agree that taking the free trial is going to give you a better sense of whether Lightroom will meet your specific needs than any answers you'll get here.
Lightroom is considered to be more newbie friendly than Photoshop. All arts editing programs, as far as I'm concerned, if they're any good, have a learning curve to master the features, and Lightroom is no exception, but LR's learning curve does tend to be less steep than Photoshop's for many users.
Many forum members who do have extensive experience with both programs have posted here that they now do the great majority or all of their editing with at least most of their images in Lightroom. Photoshop still has things it can do that Lightroom cannot do or cannot do as well, so it's not uncommon for people to post here that with an image that needs something exceptional, they'll still go over to Photoshop and put in some heavy duty editing time there. Adobe has made bouncing back and forth between the two programs easy. But often with Lightroom, you can make an image quite good with just a minute or two of edits, once you quickly get the hang of the program, and it offers many advantages in organization of large blocks of images.

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 updates won't work? Also tried DNG converter but will not work either.

Does anyone know how to get the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 to update so you can use it? I can't process raw files with my new Canon SD Mark 3.
It looks like they stopped doing updates.
Next I tried the DNG converter but it was useless. It could not find any of my photos.
SOS - I needed to complete a job with this last night and their site won't help and they finally respond by saying we will get back to you in a few days.

That camera requires at least Lightroom 4.1. There is no update for Lightroom 3 that will support the files from that camera. I'm guessing that you're having the typical problem that new users at the DNG converter encounter. The converter prompts for the *FOLDER*. If you open that folder then the DNG converter will tell you there are no files to convert. Just choose the folder. I know, it's really stupid prompt and method. But it is what it is.

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 (Student/Teacher): Questions before purchasing

Hi,
I'm considering purchasing Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 (Student/teacher version). I have several questions I was hoping to get answered before I do so. I'll list them here...
Does the Student/Teacher version have all the same capabilities and functionality as the standard version of this product?
The software is being offered as a download by a [reputable] 3rd party vendor. Can the software be downloaded to more than one computer in my household? (The same vendor does offer a hard-copy version for a mere $2 more, and I'm wondering if I shouldn't just buy that one to be safe.)
One of the primary tasks I need to do with my digital photos most often is resize them, in large batches. Does Lightroom 5 have the capability to do that?
And finally, is anyone familiar with purchasing Student/Teacher software? Is my email address with .edu extension enough to satisfy eligibility requirements?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can answer any or all of these questions!
-Steve

Lightroom and Photoshop or two completely different animals in a lot of ways. It isn't a question of either/or, but rather when to use the Lightroom and when to turn to Photoshop.The differences are too great to go into a detailed explanation on a forum such as this. I use both Lightroom and Photoshop. Lightroom is my starting point for all of my work, and I do easily 90% of my work using Lightroom. But sometimes there are things that Lightroom can't do, or Photoshop just does better.
Without going into a lot of detail, Lightroom does not modify the pixels in your image file. All changes and adjustments are stored in what is called the catalog, which is really a database. When you want copies of those images to share that include all of the Lightroom adjustments you export copies for that purpose. Because of this approach to editing, there are some things that Lightroom cannot do. That's where Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, or some other editor comes into play.
Looking back, it's easy to start editing using Lightroom. The thing I had a hard time getting my head around at first was the need to export copies of images to share with others, or to send to a lab, etc. As soon as you have that concept ingrained into your workflow I think Lightroom can be a very powerful tool. But it won't do everything, stitching panoramas, removing objects from images, and other such tasks are easier performed with other software. I'm not saying this to discourage you from Lightroom, but rather to encourage you to consider purchasing Lightroom with another product such as Photoshop or Photoshop Elements. There is "interconnection" between the two programs built into Lightroom that makes the process of going back and forth between the two very simple.
You are probably scratching your head right now wondering what I'm talking about. I apologize. Here is a link to a good set of videos you might want to watch. Then, hopefully it will help you make a better decision.

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom

I cannot open my Adobe Photoshop Lightroom program, the message I get is:Lightroom - Opening Catlog:VIDEO_TS.BUP.lrcat then Adobe Photoshop Lightroom has stopped working. I have uninstalled and installed and the same message appears.
My new email is :[email protected]

Well, you may have no idea what that all means, but really I can't say it any more plainly.....to fix the problem that you have created, the Lightroom Preferences file needs to be reset. Instructions on how to do that were in the link that I provided. Did you look at that? What part of post #9 in that link did you not understand?
Here is another post which sets out the process of resetting the Preferences file in more detail, see if this is any more help:

If you need to have someone talk you through this, you'll need to contact Adobe Customer Support....this is a user-to-user forum where users such as me try to help other users with their problems. We are not Adobe.

Okay — I tried downloading with Safari instead of Chrome. I ran the installer and had the exact same error.
Then I logged into another user account on the machine — the 'useradmin' one that our IT guys put on all the laptops and ran the installer. The same error occured eventually, but something new happened — I was told that the installer was untrusted and when I went to reveal more, I thought I should grab a screenshot, which I've attached.
If I click the "Always trust.." checkbox, I still get the error.
Weird.
Let me know what else to try — I'll do whatever you suggest.

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3.4 Problem

Hi,
I have windows 7 ultimate installed on my system.
The problem that I am facing is..when I export images from Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3.4, I can not use the folder to which I have exported the images.
Explorer.exe starts using more than1.5Gb RAM. And system becomes unresponsive.
Please let me know what can be the issue.

What are your export settings? Type of file, quality, dimensions, etc. I don't know that this will solve the problem, but have you considered updating to Lightroom 3.6? It's a free update. The only thing that would be better would be to move to Lightroom 4. But that is your choice, of course.

Trying to download and install Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.1.

trying to download and install Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.1. and keep running into "Ligfhtroom_4_LS11_w_LS11_w...exe 730/730 MB, Interupted" after the 7-8 minute down load. ANy thoughts as to what I amor am not doing cauing this interruption?

Stay on the download website, do not navigate to a different website, and do not use the back button on your browser.
If nothing od the above applied inyour case - it might just be a lot of traffic on the download website. Try at a better time - with less web traffic - for instance in the morning.
Alternatively: If you see a <Continue> button after you get the "interrupted" message, click on it.
