    Edit in Photoshop

    Thanks Jim I feared that may be the answer. However, for now I've got around it by including PSE 11 as an Edin-in preset. Thanks for your help. Su

    Edit in Photoshop

    I've been using Lightroom for a couple of years and now on Lightroom 4. I have PSE 11 as my main external editor and it has always worked fine. Last night I uninstalled an older version of Elements that I hadn't used for a long while. Now when I try to edit in photoshop from Lightroom the link...

    Photoshop for finishing, Lightroom for? ...

    Interesting post Katherine. Like Victoria, I rarely use Photoshop since becoming a Lightroom user. My main use is after editing as fully as I can in LR, I go to Photoshop to remove things like reflections or to select and paste images onto a solid background layer (I take a lot of...

    which file format for images edited in photoshop?

    Hi Tom As I understand it Tiff is the better file format as it handles metadata more reliably. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. I'm not sure about the actual difference in quality though. Regards Su

    Editing in Photoshop Elements 11

    Many thanks for your comments and tips Tom and Pieterse, I can work around the issues, though I might just go back to Elements 8. I was aware of the F4 & F5 function but the annoying thing is that the tool bin opens over the picture and needs to be closed every time you select a new tool...

    Editing in Photoshop Elements 11

    I've used Photoshop Elements as a picture editor since version 1. It works well with Lightroom and I've been pleased with the results I was getting from PSE 8. In a rash moment I've upgraded to Elements 11 (mostly because it matches the latest camera raw plugin version) but I can't say I like...

    Sorting collection by user order quits working and requires exit/restart to clear

    Hi ken I'm having a similar problem when organizing large numbers of museum objects into collection sets and sub-collections, though I haven't had an error message. After moving around 100 or so pictures Lightroom won't let me move any more so long as it stays open. I thought I was going too...

    Can't publish photos to Flickr on LR 4.1

    Thanks for your replies. Victoria, I tried both solutions several times but it still wouldn't work. It seems there are quite a few people in Flickr's Lightroom groups that have had the same problem over the years. I have installed Jeffrey Friedl's Flickr plugin and can now export with no problem.

    Can't publish photos to Flickr on LR 4.1

    I installed LR 4.1 yesterday and everything's fine with some great new refinements. However, I went to publish a couple of pictures to my Flickr photostream tonight and Lightroom tells me it can't connect to Flickr services. On my settings everything is as it was before the upgrade with my...

    Twilight Zone Experience LR$

    Could these pictures have been accidentally cropped in camera? I've never done this so I'm not sure how it works with RAW files, but it might make sense.

    Troubleshooting: LR has encountered a problem reading this photo

    Many thanks for your reply Victoria. I came to the conclusion that the files were somehow corrupted. I re-imported the originals from my external drive with the same results, then discovered I hadn't processed them through Photoshop for my Organizer either. The folder was six years old and I...

    Troubleshooting: LR has encountered a problem reading this photo

    I have the same problem today in LR4. I've been editing a folder with 600 pictures. After 500 I started to get the message 'the file appears to be unsupported or damaged'. These are not RAW, but old original jpg files. Not every picture has this message, but it's about 8 out of 10 from the last...

    Captions becoming keywords on upgrade from PSE8 to LR4

    Hi Sue I'm fairly new to Lightroom (Lightroom 3.6 was my first version). When I installed it I converted my PSE8 catalogue that has also been going since Album. Like you, I am a heavy caption user (or title as it's called in PSE) as well as writing copious notes. On import, all my keyword...

    Which camera?

    I always used Nikon 35mm cameras, but my first digital was an Olympus. Since then I've used a couple of Canon compacts (last one was the SX10 IS). I like my cameras small and light for travelling so I've never really been tempted to go back to the heavy lens brigade of Nikon or Canon DSLRs as I...

    Hello from Cornwall, UK

    Hi all. I'm a long-time photographer who was reluctantly dragged into the digital age when my old Nikon SLR finally bit the dust (literally, in the Sahara Desert) about 10 years ago. I bought a digital camera and soon discovered Photoshop and life was never the same again - all those years...
