When I use the spotting tool on a very dirty image it bogs down. Can I collapse the work?

What is the best way to save or collapse the work I have done on an image so I can get back to working at a good speed? I am guessing if I saved the image as a JPEG and reimported it that would add noise. There is probably a simple way to solve this.  Any answers?
Thanks

Robert,
There is still a known bug where LR (including 3.3RC) bogs down when large number of spots are utilized.  Every system is different and most systems appear to not have this problem.  Personally, on my system, cleaning up a BW scan will bog down when I add around 50 spots and become unbearable by 100 - sometimes even hanging for 30 seconds or more.
Some improvement was provided with the 3.3RC in that the hanging is less likely; however, the slowdown is still experienced and adding more spots once it gets to this phase is not an option.
If 3.3RC doesn't solve your problem, and space is not an issue, you might consider exporting (and automatically re-importing) in TIFF format.  You will probably lose the least amount of detail and introduce the least amount of noise that way as opposed to a JPEG file.  You can then continue working on the re-imported TIFF file as your original and you should be fine for a few more spots.  I would probably delete the file you exported from so you don't get confused about which file is your image file (just my personal preference not to have two files of the same image unless they are VCs).
Also, I find that exiting and re-starting LR every 5 or so images while in Develop module can help but that is huge pain.
Best of luck.  I am patiently awaiting updates to fix this issues once and for all.

  • When I use my brush tool, it works fine unless I overlap the brush with another brush stroke.

    When I use my brush tool, it works fine unless I overlap the brush with another brush stroke. When that happens it turns bright red. How do I fix this and turn it back to the default setting?

    I was all ready to say you have fill turned down until I got to the bit about it turning red.  Does this happen on a new document with a single layer, or only on multi layer documents?  So like cp says...  brush or layer mode most probably.  I did wonder about Quick mask though.

  • Why does my photoshop keep giving black and white lines when I use my lasso tool?

    why does my photoshop keep giving black and white lines when I use my lasso tool? It has never done this before last night. It filles the Whole lasso seleted box with (what it almost looks like) black and white caution lines. then when I go to zoom out, my zoom option starts to mess up where you cant click and move your mouse to zoom in/out with ease but where you have to click to zoom out (many times).
    Can ANYONE help me?

    Please don't shout!   Using all uppercase means shouting on the internet.  If your keyboard is stuck please say so, otherwise people will think you are being obnoxious.
    Now the first question is, when you are saying connecting to personal hotspot, have you always been using the iPhone to connect to the internet?   Are you someplace where the only place to connect is available via tethering to the iPhone's celluar network?  Or do you have other options?

    So what is your question?
    If you forgot your encryption password:
    Warning: Make sure it's a password you will remember or write it down for safekeeping. If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and forget your password, you can't restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable.
    If you can't remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and chooseset up as a new device when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore.
    The above comes from here:

    A lot more information about your hardware and software is needed.
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CC", but something like CC2014.v.2.2) and of Bridge,
    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,

    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.

    Since upgrading to Firefox 27.0 some webpages will not load when I click on them. It gives me a message saying that Firefox can't find the server. I have to click the link several time before it will load and sometimes when they do load it does not show the page right. It is like the HTML is messed up or something. I have tried everything I can think of. I started in safe mode, still did it., I removed add-ons, still did it., I reset Firefox and still did it., I completely uninstalled Firefox and re-installed Firefox and it still does it. I have tried Malware Bytes Anti-Malware scans and Avast boot-time scans and found no malware or viruses. I have found that those websites open the first time with no problems on my IE9 and they used to do so in Firefox 26.0. I'm at my wit's end. The website links are in my bookmarks and are used all the time so they are trusted and my avast is set to allow them. They range from news websites to gun websites and everything I have read says that Mozilla does not filter those unless something has changed recently.

    When I start firefox, the previous tabs are there but blank and say new tab, can I restore the tabs?
    how can I do this?

    I'm not sure what causes this.
    As the first step, I recommend backing up your existing sessionstore files.
    Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using
    Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
    Scroll down to the files whose names start with sessionstore. You should find at least sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak. If the .js extension does not appear on sessionstore, you should turn off the Windows feature that hides file extensions from you, so that you can work with file names as accurately as possible. This Microsoft support article has the steps: [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/865219].
    Make backup copies of all the sessionstore files to somewhere like your Documents folder for possible later restoration.
    Next, try one of the data mining techniques in these posts to rescue the URLs from the sessionstore.js or sessionstore.bak file:

    CS6 problem. When I open the Mask panel, it takes up the entire screen width and the Looks controls disappear, Also, there is a new panel below the Mask panel that seems to have no purpose that I can find. The documentation says "Mask and Look panels - The Mask panel is now placed next to the Look panel. WIth the masking and grading tools placed side-by-side, you can now work faster on the mask workflow." Is there a way to move, hide, or otherwise manipulate the panels for a custom layout? All the examples I can find on the Web show the Looks panel to the left of the Mask panel where the controls are available.

    Ok, here is what I have so far. Appdelete the iWork and reinstalled. Pages and Number work, but not Keynote.
    Now, I downloaded a couple apps that I need, and no matter what I did, the spinning ball came up and the download stopped till it unlocked itself. It is really frustrating because the download was not completed and whatever came through would not mount. Could this issue be the internet connection? Permission fix showed a lot of Airport issues. I will try to run permissions fix again.

    You should be able to select Force Quit from the menu beneath the Apple icon in Finder
    and choose to Quit iPhoto from there, without messing up the Mac OS X in the process.

    Not sure if rebuilding the iPhoto library would help this issue. However if you had to
    turn off the computer without the correct method (unplug, etc; instead of menu choice)
    the system may have accrued damages and should be checked, maybe repaired by
    use of the Disk Utility in the system. Or restart the computer in Safe Boot mode, then
    run 'repair disk permissions' while it is running in that reduced mode; then restart after.

    When I try to open iPhoto, I get an error message that says it can't open the application because it may be damaged or incomplete.

    Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
    Happy New Year
