Lightroom: Why edit in External Editor who worked doesn't work now?

Similar Questions

• After update, Lightroom grayed out of external editors.

  I have followed the instructions, removed the preferences of the location in Windows (appdata etc.) ... reinstalled Lightroom and Photoshop (CC 2014).  External editors were not blurred only once.  It's only since the last update.

  Does not help restart.

  In the Plugin Manager, it shows them all installed and working properly.  The truth is, Lightroom won't let me not even select Photoshop.  Does anyone else have this problem?

  ACR?  Maybe I'm not awake yet?  I've uninstalled and reinstalled Lightroom and Photoshop yesterday... then where can I perform this function?

• External editors

  It's amazing to me that the internal editor of Acrobat is limited to such a small amount of code, which requires an external editor.

  My problem: I need to transfer all of my javascript code from a PDF form to another file. I don't have to remember what "elements" have been changed.

  However, I tried several editors and the results have been bad: Acrobat Pro XI would be just "hangs".

  This includes:

  (1) visual SlickEdit V11

  (2) Windows 7 Wordpad (write.exe)

  However, I was able to get Win 7 notebook to work (which was surprising for me!).

  But it's a crap editor of rudimentary.

  What is the best to use external editor who has some intellisense for Javascript... which is optimal for the badly matched tasks {}.

  Notepad ++?

  You use the text editor and not a word processor, Write.exec or integrated coding environment. Notepad ++ or TextPad are both capable when properly configured for the type of file being processed.

  See the following free documentation provided by Adobe:

  Using an external editor

  Specification of additional features to your editor

  The PDF functions moving from a PDF file to another can be easily done by inserting a PDF file with the code in another PDF and document level functions will be added to the PDF document level scripts. Also actions such as print, print, will save, did save, close, etc. is merged in the combined PDF file. Open page and actions closely page will remain associated with the page and all the scripts in a field will remain in the fields. Once you get the scripts combined PDF needed, you can delete the page.

  You can even use FDF files to import document level scripts.

• Can I use 10 PSE as an external editor for iPhoto?

  I just downloaded a trailversion of PSE10. I chose it as the iPhoto external editor.

  As I clicked on a Photo in iPhoto and select "Edit in external editor" PSE10 started, but the picture was not that it is used in PSE8 for example.

  Thank you

  You have probably chosen the wrong file. Adobe is playing hide and seek in 10 PSE:

• Lightroom CC - edition in the external editor with images located on the external hard drive problems

  I have recently moved most of my image containing folders on external hard drive. In general, everything works smoothly in Lightroom (running latest CC). However, if I try to use an external editor of in Lightroom, I managed opening image in Photoshop CC if it is chosen. However, if I try to edit in a NIK Collection programs (i.e. Viveza 2) or affinity Photo I get error messages. The copy of Tiff is generated within lightroom, but at the spearhead of the external editor the following messages are met...

  • Viveza 2 - 'News file. Plist could not be opened"
  • Photo of affinity - "'could not open the file - / Volumes/4Tb iMac/2015-10-20-202036/Macintosh of the castle of my book 2 Backup/Backups.backupdb/Neil HD/Applications/Adobe Illustrator CS5/Plug-ins.localized/Photoshop Filters.localized/Unsharp Mask.aip/Contents/Resources/he.lproj/InfoPlist.strings the file type is not supported.". " My external backup drive is " " " 4 TB my book 2 backup" but my images are on an external drive called "4 TB My Book 1" ".

  However, if I move the folders containing images of problem on my desktop (iMAC 27 2015) in Lightroom external editor command change... works very well. The images open with Nik Collection and Photo of affinity and save in Lightroom when save. Everyone knows about this problem? And if you have, is there a resolution?

  
  

  Any help/advice greatly appreciated.

  Looks like I solved my problem with Lightroom. I disassembled my external backup drive, but upheld the disk external drive containing the photos up and then restarted my mac. After the reboot, I open Lightroom and chose the image on an external drive for mounting in affinity Photo and Collection of Nik. Both image successfully opened in editors. I reassembled the backup drive and rebooted time machine and repeated the same opening picture in external editors. Once again, works great. Have no idea where the original problem. Looks like a bad path was stored in a config somewhere file.

  Not because the LRDATA file is fair previews, what LR displays on your screen for a faster loading of the image and will be recreated. The previews only stored in the folder LRDATA is the basic overview created at time of importation for the display of thumbnails and previews of 1:1 for images that you have actually looked in the Loupe View or I guess that appears in the develop module.

  He get all the data to create the image themselves file extracts.

  If you have several files on your system that have pictures in them and you select one of them that you have not looked at in a while, you will notice LR creation of previews for these images, there will be 3 white dots in the upper right corner of the thumbnail. It's LR creation of previews for the thumbnail view. If you scroll quickly in the grid view, you'll notice a few thumbnails of images are gray, until you stop scrolling, then the upper left tile will come in clear view and the white dots will appear on the other images. It's LR creating previews for those of other images. Once LR created the preview of thumbnails that are on your screen, white spot will disappear. If you scroll down again, you will see more white dots

  If you switch to another folder that LR begins again create preview images in this folder. The total number of previews created and stored based on caching of the preview you have in the catalog settings dialog in the management of the files tab.

  If not, you need not the LR Previews.lrdata folder. Whenever LR is not very good this folder with a catalog he recreates it to store previews in.

  

• photos from Lightroom does not open in elements such as external editor

  I put 11 items PS as my second choice after CC for external photos of Lightroom edition, but it only opens PSE without the selected image. CC works perfectly. Any ideas?

  During your installation, make sure you select the application, and not an alias (shortcut). Go to this link which is for PSE14, but the setting is the same.

• Using Photoshop Elements and Photoshop CC as an external editor in LIghtroom

  I've recently upgraded to LIghtroom CC and it came bundled with Photoshop CC.  I've always used what to change in the past and now is no longer an option of Lightroom Edit - on the menu drop down. The only options for me on the menu drop down LIghtrooms is CC in Photoshop and Color Effex Pro 4.  I am unable to do certain things in Photoshop I did for years in the elements. Can I add items back as secondary external editor or am I forced to use one or the other... Appreciate any help you can provide

  Under the options "Additional external editor", the second line is an application. There is a button to choose, you can click on browse and find Photoshop Elements and that it is the secondary external editor choose.

• Question Lightroom external editor

  Hey everybody, after a recent update for Lightroom (latest version) Despite me saying the prefs I want to open this file in Photoshop CC 2014 he continually ignores this and opens the file in the 2015 version - the option is there in the export dialog, but he simply ignores my instructions. Is Adobe trying to discourage us to use the 2014 version now? I really hope not that I need to use the version of 2014 due to the problems of brush healing in 2015 - anyone else seeing this?

  Definition of the 'old' version of Photoshop is also simple to add to the list "of additional external editors" in the preferences.

  For Ironman - The default Photoshop will be CC2015.6.1 and the 'additional external editor"CC2015.1.2

  (or default CC2015 and additional CC2014 in the case of Andy).

  When setting up the 'additional external editor"it is important that you choose the appropriate version of 'old' app/exe program file.

  When you right-click on a photo and click [Edit-In] you will have two lists for the PS, one for each version.

  In the same way, you can create several 'additional external editors"that point all to ch, but with different options for the type of file and profile (for example PSD, TIFF, JPG, etc.)

• Lightroom spoil the photos when you use the external editor

  Hello world

  When I export images to an external editor, Lightroom moves the image and the copy of it at the end of the stack. This is a new phenomenon, generally the image remains in place and the copy is simply attached to it (chronological order). I use Lightroom 5.7, external editors are PSE 14 and affinity Photo. Problem with the two editors as well. No recent update, no change in the settings. Can you help me?

  Thank you!

• How to edit images of intelligent preview using external editors (PS, NIK and Topaz) with the source is disconnected?

  Is it possible to use an external editor on a preview image smart when the source file is disconnected?  Advice welcome.  Thank you in advance, DW

  In general, it is better to wait that the source of the photo file is back online to change via the external editor - for this reason, the options for external editing are disabled.

  That said, if you can't wait too long (for example you are traveling and you want to download would be a Topaz or Nik copy on the web before returning home), then here's how you can change a smart preview outwardly, in such an "emergency":

  * Download and install MiscLrScripts (free, written by me).

  * Select the photos with smart thumbnails.

  To call "import Smart Previews' script.

  * Change in... (as you would for any photo online).

  Just be aware: be you editing a file dng with reduced loss of ground and changes will be NOT transportable to original photo when source file returns online.

• Implement 10 element as external editor in Lightroom 3, don't worry.  What's wrong?

  I use Lightroom 3.  Just bought the item 10 and put in place in Lightroom as an external editor.  It does not at all.  What's wrong?

  Make sure you link the application and not a shortcut. If you use Mac OS x, you may need to show hidden folders.
