Why does Lightroom color not match when editing in Photoshop CS3

I just started Using Lightroom 4, the only version of lightroom that I have used. Short version, saves me heaps of time. But I went to edit more in photoshop and noticed that the color is dramatically different. I have Photoshop CS3 (10.0.1)and the color space is ProPhoto to match lightroom. If I make edits in lightroom, say removing dust spots, it shows in the photoshop version. It seems that on the shadow side is where it really shows. My workflow would be to import as original RAW in lightroom 4 (canon 1d mark II) and go about editing. Right click to edit in Photoshop CS3, and this is where colors go crazy. Then if I save the file with no edits done in Photoshop and compare side by side in lightroom, they are completely different. What is causing the drastic difference?
These are screenshots where in the left screenshot the original image is the dark image and the lighter is what it looks like when opened in Photoshop. The compare in lightroom on the right screenshot is what it looks like when I saved the file from Photoshop. So how does opening in Photoshop, then hitting save change the image? If i make the edit in lightroom then export the jpeg and open in photoshop, I get the appropriate color, exactly the same as my original lightroom raw. 
My external editor settings in lightroom are tiff, prophoto colorspace.
photoshop preferences are to preserve embedded profiles.

Just to make sure we're talking about the same thing, when you "Edit in" Photoshop CS3, it should give a warning dialog that says the version of ACR in Photoshop isn't compability, with the option "Open anyway" (won't work well) or "Render in Lightroom" (which should be fine).  Or, if you've created your own "Edit in" preset, you should get the option "Edit a copy with Lightroom Adjustments". 
So long as you've chosen "Render in Lightroom" or "Edit a copy with Lightroom Adjustments" (depending on how you've edit up "Edit in...") then colour should be OK. 
Colour options in PS should be something like:
Check all the "Ask when..." options, just to make sure you get warned of mis-matches.  And I suggest the RGB policy should be "preserve...". 
And the final thing: to be sure of no colour mis-match, you need a calibrated/profiled monitor (with a hardware tool like Spyder, ColorMunki, Eye-One etc).  When there isn't a monitor profile containing a colour space (which needs a hardware tool, generally) then different programs can make different assumptions and display the same image differently.

  • Why does i photo not launch when i click on icon in dock?

      Help why does i photo not launch when i click on icon in dock?

    The icons in the Dock are aliases. If iPhoto isn't launching from the dock the alias may be broken. What you can do is first test to if iPhoto is working by launching the app from the Applications folder. Once you have determined iPhoto is OK then remove the old Dock icon by holding it down and dragging it to the desktop, it will disappear in a puff of smoke. Then go to the Applications folder and drag the iPhoto icon to the Dock and test it.

    I think the subVI is working just fine when called from the main. I think what you're expecting is an indicator on the main VI to update as the subVI runs. What you will see on the main front panel is just the last value that a subVI has. That is the intended behavior of subVIs and function calls in all other languages. If you want to to update a front panel indicator while a subVI runs, pass a reference to the indicator into the subVI and update that reference instead of the indicator on the subVI. The other way is via a global variable. I've attached a modified version of your porgram.

  • Version Set is not created when editing with Photoshop CS4?

    Last week I was working in PSE7 and opening files into PS CS4 for editing. I open the files by clicking the Open with link and choose Photoshop. I edited several dozen photos and when I closed them from PS CS4 Version Sets were created in PSE7 like they should be. At some point that stopped happening. Now when I do as before and open the files into PS CS4, edit them, and then close them the Version Set is not being created in PSE7. I look in the folder containing the files and the file has a new modified date but it still has the same file name instead of being saved with the - edited name as before. Does anyone know why the version sets are no longer being created when editing with PS CS4? I can edit the files with the PSE7 editor and the version sets are created as they should be. Thanks!

    Okay so tha there is no misunderstanding here is exactly what I'm doing. From the PSE7 Organizer I select a photo (file name Tetons & Jenny Lake 026.jpg) and click the Fix tab. I then click More Options and select Photoshop. The photo opens in into PS CS4. I make my edits click the x on the tab to close the image and I'm asked "Save changes to the Adobe Photoshop document "Tetons & Jenny Lake 026_edited-1.jpg" before closing?" I click Yes then click OK to save the image at maximum quality. I go back to the PSE 7 Organizer and there is no version set. I check the folder the original image was in and see the original file Tetons & Jenny Lake 026.jpg with a new modified date and time. I can even choose Save As from PS CS4 and it asks me if I want to overwrite Tetons & Jenny Lake 026_edited-1.jpg and I select Yes, but I get the exact same results. Thanks!

  • Why does spot EPS not output when converted to CMYK or grayscale?

    Apologies if this is a known issue but I can't find it anywhere... I'm using AI CS3 (13.0.2) on an Intel iMac/Os 10.5.4 and I can't figure out why a white logo made from text outlines outputs fine to PDF if I use a spot color but if I change it to grayscale or CMYK, part of the logo doesn't output at all.
    The part which self-destructs is a supplied roundel of Caflisch text which has been converted to outlines (unfortunately I don't have the font on my system to do any deep testing). Another part of the supplied logo is a line drawing which outputs fine in any color mode.
    So I'm really looking for something to explain why the text part of this roundel outputs fine as a spot color but disappears from view when converted to CMYK or grayscale. I have been placing the file in a Quark 7.1 document and then exporting to PDF but I see the same problem when using the Flattener Preview.
    Thanks for any help.
    Simon

    Sorry for talking to myself like this -- been doing it for years...
    Finally found out what was wrong: the submitting designer had set the white coloured text objects to overprint. When I set them to knock out all was well.
    Kudos to Acrobat Pro Preflight for pinpointing the problem.

  • Why does some CSS not render when viewed from DW in a browser

    I make a copy of my site on my local machine via ftp on my
    local machine. The CSS does not render correctly for my top div tag
    with the css nav in a browser from my local. It renders everywhere
    else, even in the design view but does not render the same when I
    view it in a browser from DW. Also, I know that there isn't a
    problem with it on the remote machine bc when I go to the site,
    everything is fine and the CSS nav renders correctly in the
    browser.
    Is there a setting I am missing? What is going on? Its very
    annoying!

    What has Rome ever done for us? :)

  • Why does my cursor not work when hovering in certain sites?

    My cursor does not bring up information when i hover in sites like appointment plus. I use safari, when i downloaded firefox and signed on the cursor worked, is there something i am missing? I prefer safari, but will switch to firefox if i have to.
    At my office i have an old mac with snow leopard and the cursor works on that while on safari. my home computer has lion and it doesn't work

    Your Mac sends traffic to the interface at the top of the list in
    System Preferences > Network
    When you plug in the second Ethernet, that Interface jumps to the top of the list and all traffic goes there.
    The solution is to cable that Printer to your Router, not to your Mac.
    Alternatively, you could add a small Switch and connect your Mac and the printer to it.
    If you really want to you can use Internet Sharing to add the Ethernet port going to the Printer to the Network connacted to the Internet.

  • Why does my .vi not work when used as a sub vi

    I have a vi that produces a picture on the front panel. Displayed in the picture are solid grey levels for testing. Two grey levels are chosen inside the vi and then the picture flickers betwen the two. When I run the vi by itself it runs wonderfully, but when I run it as a sub vi it does not work. Even when I just place the sub vi in the block diagram and connect all of the controls and indicators up it doesn't work.When I use the highlighter it shows that the control values go into the sub vi and the sub vi lights up, but there is nothing output from the sub vi to the wired indicators. When I open up the Block diagram of the original vi from which the sub vi came, and highlight it while running the subvi, it
    shows that it is working with information running to all of the indicators. If I start a new program with only the sub vi in the block diagram and all of the controls and indicators connected, should it not behave as the sub vi? I will attach the vi that I am using as a sub vi, and I welcome anyone to place it in the block diagram of a new vi, connect all of the controls and indicators up and see if it works. I know that there is something completely obviopus that I am missing, but I can't see it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Why does diadem intellisense not work when using scriptinclude or for global object

    I have a script with a different classes in it (scripted 1).  When I create an object of a class in the script 1 intellisense works.  Intellisense is when you type name of the object created from a class it shows all the possible variables and functions contained in that object.  But when I write another script and use scriptinclude(scripted 1) the intellisense does not work.  I also tried a global object and intesllisense does not work.  Is there a way to get intellisense to work when using scriptinclude?  I am working with version 2012.

  • Why does this program not stop when not highlighted.

    When I highlight the execution of this program it runs through and stops. However when I take off the highlight then the program does not quit running. I have encountered this problem on other programs as well. What causes it?

    Hello,
    Thank you for contacting National Instruments.
    I took a look at your VI. I think the problem may be that you are using a Continue if True loop condition in your first While Loop. If you press the stop button wired to this condition or if an error is generated in your VI, that first loop will continue to run indefinitely. Try right clicking the loop conditional and changing it to Stop if True. You may then need to change your Less? function to a Greater? function within that same loop to preserve the intended behavior of your program
    I hope this solves your problem. If not, let me know.
