Synchronization of Lightroom with Bridge changes

I'm having a problem with synchronization between Lightroom 2.4 and the bridge (using Photoshop CS4, Camera Raw version 5.3.0.21).
I lighroom preferences defined as follows: unsaved metadata are checked for the icons of the cell in the grid view and automatically writing turns into metadata is selected in the catalog settings. In addition the Camera Raw settings are set to save image settings in sidecar xmp files.
Here's the problem:
If I make a change in Lightroom, the changes are automatically reflected in Bridge. However, if I may make a change to the bridge (Camera Raw) changes are not recognized in Lightroom. In fact, the up arrow on the Lighroom cell which indicates that the metadata was changed externally does not appear automatically. Is there a required refresh? How can I tell that a file has been modified outside? If I make a change in the file in question and then undo the Update icon change appears! but it is a strange way to know that the file has been changed. Any suggestions? much would appreciate your comments.
Thank you.

Lightroom is not continuously monitor what is happening outside the catalog and the method it uses to check periodically for external changes is a bit slow. The best way to ensure that catalogue Lr faithfully all externally applied changes to the metadata that has been applied to an image is to use the command to synchronize the folder. This command analyzes the file looking for external changes and new images. You then have the option to read the changes and returns to the Lightroom Catalog.

BTW: upgrade of Camera Raw 5.4

  • Two-way synchronization of Lightroom with Flickr?

    I have been using Lightroom with Flickr for a long time. A certain degree of two-way synchronization between the plugin Flickr (the one that comes with Adobe Lightroom) and Lightroom is possible. For example, coomments are uploaded to Flickr. However, there are some strong limitations on this plugin:

    (1) has problems if you have a lot of Flickr photo sets then you can't keep all registered in Lightroom, but you can update after post you them on Flickr. For example if you find an error in a name or retouch a photo. This is particularly the case if you move to a new computer or do a major upgrade and lose games photo appearing on the card.

    (2) If you import pictures from another library where you've set up a Flickr album then this album not imported to Lightroom in the Flickr publish the module. The connection to Flckr is lost!

    I am in no way suggest using Flickr as a backup, but it would be useful to be able to link to the existing albums in Lightroom and locate the existing files in the current library or to the list of missing persons so that the republication are then possible. If someone knows a way to get this answer please then.

    Currently I use Lightroom 4.3 on a Windows 7 PC.

    Thank you

    It's this piece from your original post that caught my attention.

    According to http://regex.info/blog/lightroom-goodies/flickr/publish#populate , that he should try to link previous Flickr updated with photos in your catalog.  I don't use Flickr for a long time, so I'm not up-to-date with the current functionality.

  • Lightroom and Bridge

    If I move pictures to a different folder or create new folders in Lightroom, I understand that Lightroom uses the photos in Lightroom. The original photos have not been moved and they still reside in the folder that they were originally put in when they have been imported into your PC. I'm clear on this process.

    Now the problem is that when I discovered my hierarchy in Bridge, one of these folders or photo that have been made in Lightroom movements do not exist. Is - it there anyway to 'marry' movements of Lightroom previously made in Lightroom with bridge?

    Bob

    If you move folders or images from a folder in Lightroom, they are placed on the disc and they will appear this way in the bridge.

    You must think of moving/creating collections and/or moving images, from the collection to the collection.

    I installed on my Mac Pro 13 "retina package Photoshop CC, CC of Lightroom and Bridge.

  • Lightroom or bridge, which is preferable to change the names of 20 m photo

    I would completely change the structure of naming of approximately 20,000 images and would like to hear opinions on what program, Lightroom or bridge, to use and if there are precautions with a program that I should be aware of.

    If the images are not already in Lightroom, I'd go with the bridge. You would skip the step of importing, and even the change of name is likely to be faster, because it does not update the LR database.

    On the other hand, if the images have already been imported, you need to use Lightroom to make the change of name, or you would have an absolute nightmare their reconnection to your database.

  • PSD in lightroom, edited in lightroom. When the changed data ('Edit Original'), returns to lightroom with original lightroom edits lost

    Hello

    It is a change, I've noticed since the upgrade to 2015 CC LR and PS 2015.

    My process usually looks like this:

    1) modify the RAW in lightroom (leave uncropped image)

    (2) with LR edits done, edit RAW file externally in Photohop (cloning, patching, etc.).

    (3) save PS edit, back to Lightroom to find new PSD alongside old RAW, with PS changes.

    (4) new DSP harvest at the end

    (5) fact

    Every now and then, I noticed that I forgot to do something in photoshop and bring back the PSD in the PS, choose when you are prompted to "modify the Original.

    Before the update LR and PS to the CC 2015 versions, I'd be able to do everything I wanted the PSD in PS, and when I got back to lightroom, LR would have kept the culture I had done in the PSD before resuming in photoshop (so I wouldn't have to redo a culture I can done in the PSD in step 4 above).

    Lately, since I've upgraded LR and PS to CC2015 I noticed that when I take a PSD already edited out of LR in the PS, he returned with the new PS made adjustments but the harvest of LR (step 4) are all lost, and I need to redo any cropping, I could have done.

    Is this a bug? Is it a setting I need to change? This is a feature that was simply lost in the latest versions of PS/LR?

    Any help?

    Thanks in advance

    Vineet

    I think I know what is different with my configuration of LR and what is the cause of the problem. I don't have 'include develop settings in metadata in JPEG and TIFF, PNG, PSD files"checked in the settings of my catalog? Do you have?

    I just tested this with "Including developing parameters in the metadata in JPEG, TIFF, PNG and PSD files" checked. Using "Manual" "save metadata to file" ("Automatically write changes into XMP" unchecked), I lose my LR changes when back and forth if I have not updated the metadata with the latest development changes. LR resembles returned PS 'Original Edition' file and bed in XMP changes rather than changes in the catalog. Even when you use "Automatically write changes into XMP" it mast be a delay in LR update metadata file with the latest changes to LR.

    If I do the new changes in LR to 'Edit in PS' TIFF and then try to do another edition in PS > edit the Original I get the following message below. If I choose "Settings Overwrite" TIFF opens in PS without the LR settings as expected. When the file is saved in the PS and returned to LR LR changes are applied.

    If you do not see the message below check "reset all warning dialog boxes" in LR preferences > general tab. It should be shaded below when all warnings are activated.

  • Photoshop or Camera Raw, Lightroom and Photoshop (with Bridge)?

  • I need to change the default 'open with' Bridge of photoshop to photoshop CC 2015.  How do I do that?

    I need to change the default 'open with' Bridge of photoshop to photoshop CC 2015.  How do I do that?

    Hi karen,.

    It can get a bit tangled. Bridge delay normally to some think the Finder is the default, and every OS has its own way for you to tell the OS what you say should be the default value. On Mac, it's in the file information dialog box. I think that Windows called something like properties. You can change an extension to open all files with an application in your operating system first, restart Bridge and see if she pays tribute to this choice by double clicking on a file and observing that it opens the right version of PS. normally, it will be. (By default) must also appear after this choice in the list open with contextual (right click on the file you want to open, select open with and find the name of the application in the list).

    If this does not work, you will need to manually choose your file association for the extension of the list next to him in the Bridge preferences > File Associations. Which is normally necessary only when you want to override the default choice of your OS System. For example, maybe you want to bridge to open in PS JPEG files when you double-click it in Bridge, but if you double-click on a file in the Finder/Explorer JPEG, you want to open with Viewer of this system. It will not say it is (by default) in the pop-up list more, but bridge will honor your file associated with the choice of your system.

  • Out of sync - Lightroom and Bridge

    I have about 550 images I shot in Raw of Canon. I launched Adobe Bridge so that I could do some universal/global changes to all images (camera profile, Balance White, contrast, brightness, clarity, etc.) in Camera Raw. After I made the changes, I launched Lightroom so that I could change the images individually. I would have the opportunity that he had to go back and forth between Lightroom and Bridge, when I don't want to make broader changes to multiple images.

    What I am now finding, is that the images are not synchronized between the two applications. I'll change several images in Bridge (Camera Raw) and then return to Lightroom, and the changes are not reflected. In Lightroom, I chose "Synchronize the folder" and it goes through the motions, but the images don't synchronize. When I go to open each image in Photoshop Lightroom & Bridge, I have still two separate images, completely different. If I open the image from the Finder, I get the Bridge version, which is the last version that I modified.

    Help!

    Thank you

    Jeff

    Before an explanation to have LR and Bridge/ACR see each and other modifications, please note that overall things, you say that you do in the ACR/bridge can be done just as easily in LR and maybe easier, using synchronization... button or settings of copy/paste and you will save yourself a lot of grief and need to be careful if forget you Bridge/ACR for massive things as much as possible as long as you use LR with the same images.

    --

    OK now to figure out how to bridge and ACR see each and other changes:

    Bridge stores the changes in an XMP sidecar, while LR stores internally and to synchronize is not always as easy as you would expect; However, if read you and write XMP from LR files manually, then you can make it work.

    First of all, make sure that your default settings for a toning and everything are identical between ACR and LR otherwise LR and ACR will use their default values for things that are not specified in the XMP files and you may have differences.

    If you do things in Bridge/ACR as a first step, it must generate XMP files that have the same name base as RAW format, but with an XMP extension.  When you import files in LR and then he will use what he sees in the XMP sidecar files to its initial settings, but then he internalizes them and what you must do something to save the changes back to the XMP files if you want to change in the bridge, once again.

    If your first step is to import the files into LR for sorting bridge know nothing about changes you make also unless you create the XMP files for the images that you have changed.

    You can either have LR automatically write changes into XMP files (a preference defines this) or you can do this manually by library / (select all) / metadata / write the changes to the files (note the S on the files if multiple files are selected which they aren't if you develop) and it's safer, anyway where LR has not caught automatically writes things for the XMP files if you did mass changes in LR.

    Once all LR changes are in the XMP files, then Bridge/ACR will see them.

    Once you are done with the Bridge/ACR, you have to do something to tell LR there is changes, to look for in the XMP files, given its prime location of changes in its internal database.  You can use a library / (select all) / metadata / change of playback of files to replace the LR settings with all that is in the XMP file.

    You must be careful with this and not clear changes in writing when you should be reading or reading when you need to write.  To solve this situation you are in, now, you have to renounce your changes in LR or bridge saying LR metadata editor to read files (replaces LR changes) or write metadata to the files (replaces bridge changes).

    In my view, that the synchronization can be used if the date in the XMP file is newer that what LR has internally, but I don't know if this still works and that someone else will have to give the definitive answer on synchronize.  I gave up using Bridge/ACR with LR long ago and just do all my mass edits in LR and just use ACR conversion in Photoshop when I use edit in Photoshop from LR.

    There are other things to know: LR write metadata to the files from the context menu of a library folder.  This is a shortcut for the production of the initial set of XMP files, but it doesn't do this for images where something changed in fact given that the file has been imported, or since the last update the XMP from LR, so you may need this thing by selecting all files and making a parent up and down something in the control panel rapid development - something like the clarity or Saturation that is not likely to be maxed out in any files you are tweaking the settings of just to make the "most recent" changes than last time.

  • Free version of Bridge and trial version of Lightroom and Bridge for Windows Vista

    Hello
    I installed creative cloud a free version of bridge and a trial version of Lightroom, but clicking on a raw image file appears ' to open the file must specify the program you want to open it.
    If I try to open camera raw (right click on the file imange) and select "open on CameraRaw" appears "the main application of the bridge is not enabled" and "To activate this bridge function requires that an original product has been started at least once.".  But I don't know what to do. I can only use Lightroom separately from the bridge.

    Another separate issue from the previous: are there and, if so, where it finds a version of Windows Vista Bridge?

    Thank you
    Francesco

    To open images in Lightroom, you need to start Lightroom and then use the import function. Double click an image not open in Lightroom. Camera raw is a plug-in for Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, and After Effects. It will not work with just the bridge. If you have installed the bridge you will also need to install Photoshop which is also part of the creative package. Then you can use Bridge to access your raw files, then open them in camera raw. The way you have to put things in place now with Lightroom and Bridge, you can open your raw files by starting Lightroom and using the import function. Lightroom is not affected by plug in Camera Raw.
