Workflow "issues" with Lightroom when used to using Bridge

Ive been using bridge & Photoshop to process and edit my RAW images for a few years now. I'd love to move over to using Lightroom to take advantage of its improved features and vastly superior response time. But Im finding working with Lightroom is more cumbersome in the processing part.
With bridge Id find the RAW image I like, adjust it using ACR and one click brigs it into photoshop. I edit the photo and save it as a psd. Often I crop and sharpen or otherwise process the psd file and save the result as a jpg in the best directory. The latter file is typically the one I show. With Bridge doing all this is straightforward.
With Lightroom its more involved. Using the develop module I adjust the image and hit Ctrt-E to edit the picture in Photoshop. A dialog box opens and I always select Edit a copy with Lightroom adjustments (be nice if we could say always do this dont ask me each time). The photo now opens in Photoshop but not before Lightroom has created a psd file in my RAW files directory. Why? So now I edit and save the result in my Before crop directory. I then crop and sharpen and save the result in my best directory. Of course Lightroom doesnt see either of my new photos in the B4 crop or best directory so I have to import them.
Is there an easier workflow that Im missing? I dont want psd files in with my RAW files and I want to keep my best files separate.

Mikepa, if you want to keep your PSD and "best files" separate from your raw files, then simply export the raw files to the format of your choice in the folder of your choice. You can later import these to Lr but in my workflow these exported images that I manipulate in Photoshop do not return to Lr. Instead I use Bridge as my TIF/PSD image manger.
In short, Lr for RAW; Bridge for TIF/PSD. Why? I have thousands of RAW files that require the efficiencies that Lr deliver, but the far, far fewer TIF and PSD files I create are handled better in Bridge (with it's tight integration to Photoshop actions and scripts).

  • My MacBook Pro 13" (2012) is running Windows 7 on Bootcamp and there is an issue with the headset I'm using.

    My MacBook Pro 13" (2012) is running Windows 7 on Bootcamp and there is an issue with the headset I'm using. I use a cheap Logitech Stereo Headset H130, but since there is only on audio plugin on the computer, I purchased a 3.5 mm 4-pin smartphone audio adapter thingy. That allowed me to put both my the sound coming to my headset & the microphone on my headset onto one wire. Everything worked wonderfully when running the Mac OS since they probably have support for that kind of stuff. The problem is though that once I try to use the same method in Windows 7, the OS doesn't recognize my headset microphone at all, but, instead when recording my voice decides to use the built-in mac microphone. Using this adapter still allows me to hear from my headset, but not use the microphone and that becomes a problem. It might be so that Windows 7 doesn't have support\drivers for that... How should I continue from here on out? Any advice?

    From what I have read from others on here you may be out of luck. You would need the appropriate Windows drivers for the Cirrus chip in the Mac and no one has been able to successfully locate them. Apple wouldn't support this since Windows is an optional install.
    Sorry to bring the bad news.

  • Issue with PR conversion to PO using ME59 withqty of similar line items

    Hi All,
    I'm having an issue with PR conversion to PO using ME59
    I have a PR with the following line items with all same details except quantity
    ex 1
    Mat  Qty  Unit Plant   St Loc
    M1   1    EA   P1      S1
    M1   29   EA   P1      S1
    The PR brings in the Unit automatically
    EA is Base Unit Of Measure -Material Master
    BT is Order Unit           -Material Master
    Conversion
    30 EA = 1BT
    When i convert this PR to PO using ME59N then i see 2 lines items
    M1   1   BT
    M2   1   BT
    Its doubling the qty (2 BT = 60 EA)
    ex 2
    Mat  Qty  Unit Plant   St Loc
    M1   1    EA   P1      S1
    M1   2    EA   P1      S1
    M1   27   EA   P1      S1
    The PR brings in the Unit automatically
    EA is Base Unit Of Measure -Material Master
    BT is Order Unit           -Material Master
    Conversion
    30 EA = 1BT
    When i convert this PR to PO using ME59N then i see 2 lines items
    M1   1   BT
    M1   1   BT
    M1   1   BT
    Its 3 times no
    PR Qty = 30 EA
    PO qty = 3  BT = 90 EA
    I guess during conversion to PO
    It sees PR Line item 1 and looks for another line items with similar fields ( in our case it sees line 2 in ex 1 and 2 and 3 in ex 2)
    i adds the qty 1 and 29 in ex1 and converts the total 30 each to 1 BT and when it moves to 2 line it see item1 and again creates 1BT but the line item 2 was already considered and it should be ignored
    Similarly if you see ex2 then it creates 3 limes with 1 BT each
    Let me know how to resolve this issue
    Thanks

    As for std SAP ME59N - make sure there is not rounding value is activated in the Material master as well as info record
    If this is not the case than check any custom code is activated for ME59N
    becuase generally in many compnay when they use ME59n they don't want the same material from diff PR to create the diff line item in the PO so using the custom logic in the user exist they trick the code
    it might be the case for you where you have issue.

  • Anyone else having issues with Lightroom 4 crashing constantly?

    I'm having an issue with Lightroom 4 crashing constantly. It happens with 4.3 and 4.4 (I was hoping the upgrade to 4.4 would fix the problem but no...) I'm running Windows 8, 16 GbRAM an AMD FX-8120 processor (not sure if that helps or not) an NVIDIA GeForce GT 620 Graphics card. Not sure if any other info would help. I've tried deleting/moving the preferences file, creating a new catalogue and all the usual fixes I could think of but to no avail. There doesn't seem to be any particular trigger. I could be in the develop module or the Library Module. It just either gives me the blue screen (sometimes with the error "CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED which is a somewhat disturbing but unhelpful error) and reboots itself or the screen just goes blank and I have to manually reboot it. I am totally hamstrung without Lightroom and I have clients waiting for their photos. I am at a total loss.. Can someone please help?!?!?!

    Sadly my research since having the problem agrees that the AMD FX are not good for what I am doing which thoroughly annoys me as it was recommended by so called professionals when the build was done in Nov last year. These so called professionals also failed to see the need for cooling fans in the box which I believe is definitely contributing to the problem especially when the temp in NZ gets up to 30 deg C I am definitely looking at getting some fans in there ASAP as well. Thanks for the confirmations of the inadequacy of the proc and the heat issues.

  • Serious issues with Timer when RunTimeExceptions are thrown in TimerTask

    Hi All,
    I am facing serious issues with Timer and TimerTask.
    Runtime exceptions thrown in TimerTask kill that one thread, thus making Timer dead i.e. scheduled tasks will not run anymore. Is there any way we can overcome this with Timer or it is just not possible?
    I used try, catch blocks in TimerTask for RunTimeExceptions but no luck. Timer is not running any more once TimerTask throws any exceptions. Why it is not able to catch them? Is this known issue with Timer?
    I am using Java 1.5.0_08.
    Any guidance is appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,

Is this known issue with Timer?It's perfectly possible for you to catch a RuntimeException, in a TimerTask or anywhere else. If you were thinking that there is a language feature or something which makes catching exceptions work differently in a TimerTask, you weren't thinking right. Your code is just wrong.

  • TS1398 I have the ipad retina display version - I have a BIG issue with this when out and about that on about 50% of the time will it see my HTC mobile WiFi hotspot - rebooting either, or both devices doesn't cure the problem it drives me MAD!!!!

    I have the ipad retina display version - I have a BIG issue with this when out and about, that only about 50% of the time will it see my HTC mobile WiFi hotspot - rebooting either, or both devices doesn't cure the problem it drives me MAD!!!!
    The HTC hotspot works fine with everything else I connect to it.
    Also - ipad will not connect to my HTC via bluetooth. Again, I can connect to everything else with my HTC other than my ipad.
    I have to say this is my first venture into Apple products and I have always wanted to get away from my windows based laptop to get a MacBook, the problems I have had (flash player etc) & continue to have (as above) are putting me right off swapping over. I HATE technology that doesn't work and my ipad has been hard work!

    I stated my ipad as being an ipad2, but I now think it is a 3??? It was new Jan this year and is the 64gb retina display version.
    I really would like to get to the bottom on this problem wit mobile hotspots as it is sitting on my desk next to me now and I cannot get it to connect to my HTC mobile hotspot!!!! It might be taking a flying lesson soon at this rate!!! Grrrrrrr...........

  • Issues with pagination when using Adobe table with Web dynpro for ABAP

    Hi All,
    I am facing strange issue with table text.
    I have three cols in table, one is of type Char255 and other two cols are of type string.
    The text in the col 1 is displayed perfectly but in other two cols of type string whenever we have pagination the text in table is getting truncated and in next page new row starts.
    Could you please tell me the settings that will enable flowing of text in the row of table to next page.
    Thanks,
    Arti.

    Check the properties of the text field you use for those columns (if you want to control it on this level) or check the same attribute for the row subform (one level up control): "allow page break within content".
    Regards Otto
    p.s.: we all have deadlines... and manage to pay something back. Think about it.

  • Issues with Images when used w/ Caption Widget & Book File Size Q

    Hi Everyone,
    I was having issues with images not showing up and determined it was the caption widget causing the issue. I now have one of two issues happening consistently. Either the image does not show at all or just the caption box with bkgd gray and caption text shows, but without the image.
    Anyone else have this issue?
    Ay ideas would be greatly appreciated. I wasw just about finished with this project when this started!
    Also, the size of the book is considerably larger than I realized.It is 81 mb. . . How does this compare to any of your books?
    THANKS SO MUCH!
    Belinda

    Belinda,
    I can't speak to your main issue, as I cannot recreate the problem over here.
    As a guess, have you checked to make sure you're not running out of harddrive space? iBA can consume space quickly, and behaves oddly when it begins to run out of room.
    But as far as filesize goes, I can only wish for an 81 MB book. Mine is currently a little over 2 GB and growing. Tonight I had to split it into 2 volumes just so iBooks Author can run at a reasonable pace. I was getting tired of waiting 1-2 minutes after dragging a video around on the page before I could get control of the program again.
    You should note that Apple is expecting large filesizes for this new Multi-Touch format. The docs on iTunesConnect say the largest allowed upload size for a book is 16GB 2BG (see link below)

  • Issue with SharePoint foundation 2010 to use Claims Based Auth with Certificate authentication method with ADFS 2.0

    I would love some help with this issue.  I have configured my SharePoint foundation 2010 site to use Claims Based Auth with Certificate authentication method with ADFS 2.0  I have a test account set up with lab.acme.com to use the ACS.

  • Has anybody else been having issues with their home button after using assistive touch for a little while?

    Me and my brother have been messing with Assistive Touch on and off since iOS 5 canme out. We been noticing that when we actually move to use the home button, sometimes it doesnt respond. Though I'm all for thinking my home button my be on the fritz, it wouldnt explain how mine and my brother suddenly have issues with our home buttons at the same time. Both of us had a time where the home button didnt respond at all. and its been intermittent ever since. Anybody that has an answer or another case like this I' d like some information

    Reset Home button steps:
    (1) Tap Settings App, when it is open:
    (2) Hold Power button until "slide to power off" bar appears.
    (3) Don't slide it, release power button.
    (4) Gently, continuously press Home button for few seconds until home screen appears.
    (5) Done.

  • Issues with a Credit Card Machine using a VG202

    Has anyone run into any issues with using CC machines with using SCCP on a VG202?
    Setup: 2 CC Machines--> VG202 --> connecting to Call Manager 8.6 using DHCP.  Both of my CC machines work fine doing a normal CC transaction, but at the end of the day the client runs a batch report on the cc machine but the cc machine will time out after 1 min.  The Batch report usually takes about 3 to 4 mins to complete. 

    Thank you!
    Adding "network-clock-select 1 T1 0/0/0" to the config resolved the issue. No more slips and credit card machine runs smoothly now.
    I very much appreciate your assistance.

  • SPD 2010 Workflow: Issue with Associated Column

    We have a SP2010 Workflow that is attached to a Content Type and mapped in the Retention Policy settings. This workflow uses a DateTime column which is used within the Workflow and hence the DateTime column is used within the Workflow as an Associated Column.
    The issue being faced is that when we manually run the workflow, it runs successfully and is able to get the value of the associated column. When the Retention Timer job starts the workflow, we find that the Workflow is not able to get the value of the Associated
    Column (this we realized by logging messages to a List).
    Any pointers/guidance on how to overcome this issue is much appreciated.
    Blog: http://dotnetupdate.blogspot.com |

    Thanks for the suggestions. 
    From the debugging there is no issue from a functionality perspective or the date calculations. It works perfectly well when we manually run the workflow or if I set the workflow to start when an item is uploaded.
    The behavior is different when the same workflow is getting triggered from a Retention Policy as a Stage. Is this something to do with access permissions or security context when a SPD 2010 Workflow gets triggered by a Timer Job/Retention Policy?

  • OS 10.7.4 compatibility issues with lightroom 3

    i use lightroom 3.  i just had to get a new computer and got a macbook pro with os 10.7.4.  lightroom is saying it does not recognize the images on the camera, so it will not import them now.  the settings on the camera are still in RAW, so that is no different than it was with my old computer.   I'm wondering if it is a compatilbilty issue with the new OS and Lightroom 3? 

    it says " the following files were not imported because they could not be read"  and then says items 1-325, which is all of the images.  i am able to view all of the thumbnail images when I go to Import, but it won't acutally import them.  The camera is set to RAW only, no JPGS.
