Why do my edits/changes to files outside of Lightroom not update inside Lightroom?

I'm using version L1.4.1 on a Mac and have noticed that if I bring in a RAW file (either CR2 or DNG) to Lightroom, but then have to make edits/changes to it in a program outside of Lightroom, say Photoshop CS3 (RAW reader) later, it won't update the file and its new changes inside Lightroom unless I were to 'remove' the file from the library altogether and reimport it. With jpgs however, they update will be made, why is that and is there a way to do it?

Did you notice lrdata file in your catalog folder? The lrdata file holds previews of your images – but not the original images.
When you work with images in Lightroom: change levels, apply templates, etc – all of them run very quickly, and are completely reversible. You can go back in the process because LR DIDN'T CHANGE original files itself. Instead it stores them into lrcat and lrdata files.
LR uses these files to show you previews you see when browsing the catalog. As long as LR doesn't know the file has changed, it shows you an older preview.
As far as I remember, you can use the Library - Previews menu item to force LR to rebuild previews from updated files you upload.

  • Is it possible to edit/change audio files in a published html5 file?

    Is it possible to edit/change audio files in a published html5 file?

    Theoretically, YES, but they would need to be in exactly the same format and have the same filename.  Why would you be wanting to do this?  If the new files are not the same playing length, this could potentially throw out any synchronisation with other elements in the presentation.

  • Why cant I edit My raw files from Canon 6D

    Why cant I edit My raw files from Canon 6D.

    It is difficult to know why because we don't know what version is your PSE and what is your operating system.
    That aside, if your camera is fairly new then first try to update your software by going to:
    Help >> Updates
    If this doesn't solve then it may be that your camera is not supported by your PSE (mainly 10 and before) and so you may need to use DNG conversion utility.  The latest version is 8.1 but unpaid MVPs here will tell you more about it.

  • File to Rfc scenario,not updated in rfc

    Hi,
    File to RFC scenario,not updated in RFC?
    i checked communication channels ,smq1,smq2,sm58,cache refresh.but issue was not solved.
    Please advise where need to check?
    Thanks
    Amita

    Hi Amita,
    First check whether the configuration between PI and ECC has been set up properly.
    Are you using a stand RFC or custom RFC?
    Import the RFC metadata from ECC to PI and use that structure in your service interface and configure the remaining objects that we normally do.
    Now, try to process the file and check in the communication channel, whether file Adapter is able to pick up and send the message to PI system.
    If the message is successfully processed through PI system then check the messages in Queues. Also, check the RFC communication channel in the adapter engine.
    Follow the process, you might get some clue regarding the issue.

  • Why can't I change movie file type

    Hey all,
    I'm running iTunes12 on PC, and I have some mp4 movies I would like to put in the library! I added the file to the library and it goes straight to home videos, which is fine as I'm used to just right clicking and clicking on get info and changing that to "movie" so it adds to my movies library. Only problem is that now, all the information that I used to be able to change is greyed out and I can't change it or anything... not even the name. I really would like to find out what's causing this! I already checked the file and it's not read-only. HELP

    Thanks for your reply.
    I'm trying to print from organizer. It was all working fine with Elements 8 on my Dell but now I have a new HP and Elements 11. Tried Printer Preferences but it still didn't work. Ugh!

  • Why won't CSS changes save -  Are Reflected Locally, but not there when uploaded.

    I have recently re-installed Dreamweaver CC 2014.1.1. I am editing an existing site http://www.travelight.tv/test.html. CSS changes won't save (i.e ".righthalf" and <strong> and H3.)  I finally replaced the class with a table for the sake of time. Still can't save <strong> and H3 changes. CSS Designer Panel correctly shows the H3 font and the hex color (ee5e33) - but the color palate shows black. The uploaded document reflects gray. The changes are reflected properly locally, but not when uploaded to server. The time/date stamp doesn't update, despite saving several times. What am I missing?

    Sorry about that, I managed to get the test URL wrong. http://www.travelight.tv/test/index.html. I had to remove the righthalf class from the document, but the <strong> and <h3> tags are still having issues.As for the location, I am opening the one that is linked to the document from the bar at the top of the document - it is the only one named travelight.css. When I logged in this morning, I noticed that it is showing the icon as a Wordpad document even though the File Type shows it as a Cascading Style Sheet - I have tried saving it as an html file and have re-created it, but it remains a Wordpad document. Below is the a screen shot of the folder.

  • Lightroom not updating main preview with develop changes. Steps taken, please help...

    I have CC photographers package with the latest Photoshop and Lightroom (5.7) installed. Starting yesterday when I make changes to the develop sliders the image doesn't change. The filmstrip preview does but the main preview does not. If I switch to a different image and back I can see the changes but I can't edit that way. I purged caches, increased their size, made a new catalog, uninstalled (and left over files) and ran CC cleaner on the registry then rebooted and re installed. I did not uninstall CC or Photoshop. How can I make the slider changes show up in real time again? It isn't that the changes are lagging. I can change a slider and it WILL NOT change the image no matter how long I wait, but if I switch to another photo and back the changes show up immediately. Searching Google yielded only results about smart previews and was not helpful to me. I am not using smart previews and the actual RAW files are on the same machine Thanks everyone!

    I don’t know for sure, but if it just started, not when you installed LR 5.7, then something changed on your system.  A display-update issue would perhaps be related to video drivers, so did your system’s video drivers get updated, yesterday, or did you install some game that changed something?
    About the only thing I can suggest in this regard is to try rolling back your video drivers or installing the latest video drivers from the video-card manufacturer’s site, or if they have a list of older drivers, archived, then try installing the preview version or two back.

  • Mass update changes are showing as saved but not updating.

    Hi Gurus,
    When I try to do some changes for scheduling agreement line item using t-code MEMASSSA the message is showing as that changes are saved, but when I log into schedule agreement these changes are not being update, even I donu2019t find any change in the log, can anyone let me know why this is happening. Thanks in Advance.

    Hello,
    Mass change for SA is clarified in note 1046851:
    "BAPI_SAG_CHANGE and BAPI_SAG_CREATE are restricted for time dependent
    condition. Whether a document uses time dependent condition or document
    condition is defined in customizing table T161 field STAKO. This set up
    is stored in the document at header level..."
    If this was allowed previously, then this was a program error and
    subsequent will create inconsistency in your system as the
    functionality was intended to block in mass transaction. If not
    there are possibilities of problem described in note 1034912.
    1034912 MEMASSSA - document conditions are deleted
    See aso, 1046794 FAQ: BAPI for outline agreement question 1
    1.  Question:
    You want to change a scheduling agreement via BAPI_SAG_CHANGE and
    receive the error message MEOUT019: "Scheduling agreements with
    time-independent conditions are not supported". Why?
    Answer:
    BAPI_SAG_CHANGE (and BAPI_SAG_CREATE) can only treat scheduling
    agreements with time-dependent conditions. Document conditions are not
    supported. Therefore, this kind of scheduling agreements cannot be
    processed. This is a missing functionality.

  • Changes made in Design view does not update on Run

    Hello,
    I add a button, or move some components around has no effect when I run the application. I am using Flash Builder for PHP 4.5 and there is no way to tell FB to compile the mxml file. In other Eclipse distribution, you have Compile and Run. I only have Run.
    Previously, clicking Run would make the changes visible. Now, that does not work. I always see the old view. I have tried doing a Clean, but without success.
    I would appreciate any input on this matter.
    Thank you.

    So again: What did not work:
    1) Clean build
    2) deleting relevant swf files
    Point 2 hinted me what to do. If the file is inexistant and Google Chrome still opened it, then the most probable reason was the cache. After clearing the Chrome cache, my swf files were loaded with the changes I made.
    I have stopped using Chrome now, and back to old Firefox. Firefox is a memory hog, but it just works.
    Hope the above provides help to anybody having the same problem.

  • Sites files are examined but not updated.

    So here is my issue, I am trying to add some code to a dreamwever template file (.dwt) and when I go to update the site it examines all of the files but does not update them. The code is not placed in an editable region. The template is based off another template so to add the code I did have to open the file in notepad. I then reopened it. The idea is to try to avoid having to edit the original template because it would effects hundreds of pages on the site. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    The template is based off another template so to add the code I did have to open the file in notepad.
    There is no natural scenario I can think of that would require that you do this. When you say the code is based off another template do you mean that you are using nested templates? And what is it you are trying to accomplish?

  • CSS file in document library not updating

    I have a sharepoint 2010 team site. There i created a document library named Style Library to store CSS files.
    I uploaded a file name site.css in the document library. This worked fine.
    Later on i updated my css file and uploaded to the same library but new style did not impacted.
    I tried to library version settings and site publishing feature but nothing helped. 
    The workaround i found is to change the file name and uploaded which worked fine.
    Another thing i noticed is: When i downloaded thee css file from library using "download a copy" link it had my new styles but when i clicked the file name and downloaded it did not have my new changes.
    Could someone suggest something, i don't want to change file name again and again. 

    Hi Mohit,
    This is due to cache problem. Please go through following post where it was explained nicely and a solution was suggested for this problem using Query Strings:

  • Email changes on iPad via IMAP are not updating on Exchange Server

    I have set up IMAP access to my company email from the iPad. Reason being so that I can manage emails (delete, move to folders etc) whilst working off-line.
    Seemed to work fine for a day or so but now any changes made via the iPad are not syncing and updating the Exchange Server once back on-line.
    Any hints?

    I see. okay, well, on my iphone with iOS 3.x I always saw similar issues. I had email on 2 Exchange servers, so one of the accounts had to be IMAP, and it never worked properly.
    Yes, it would mark emails as being read, etc, but anytime I moved or deleted an email, it would do so, but would also keep a copy on the original mailbox it was in. Basically the IMAP "Expunge" command wasn't properly being sent by the iPhone
    I submitted this as a bug to Apple via bugreporter.apple.com and they confirmed it. Whether it's fixed or not in iOS 4 I don't know as iOS 4 has the ability to use multiple Exchange accounts so I no longer need the IMAP.

  • Changes to BI web templates are not updated

    Hello BI Experts,
    I need to find a way to advise my portal resource on how to resolve a problem we are experiencing.
    When we make a change to a web template, the changes are not updated and it appears that the old version is cached.  The only way we can get the new template to show is to bounce EP.
    Does anyone have suggestions where we can find the appropriate global settings to set the cache so that EP will retrieve new BI content as it is modified?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Tom

    Hi Tom,
    If there is some incorrect setting in the portal, the WAD templates does not get saved after the first Save action.
    I am not sure of the setting which needs to be done. But I can provide you an alternate solution. If there is no other issue than the templates not getting saved, you can use this.
    You can save your changed template using 'Save As' in a different name and then you can delete the original template. Afterwards, you can save this template with the actual name.
    I hope this would solve your problem.
    Regards,
    -Neethu
