Morning all,

I have an annoying problem with Lightroom. When passing an image from LR (with develop alterations) to PS (CS6) it isnt taking any of my develop settings. The image goes into Photoshop as a completely untouched RAW file.

Previously it was passing it from LR to CS6 as a JPEG with all my develop settings applied.. as far as I know, I havent changed anything, so not sure why its not working?

Any help much appreciated!
Thanks
 
I'm sure it usually asks me each time I do that. Not that I do very often. Sorry can't offer any real help.
 
I'm not at my Mac at the moment but when you click edit in...Photoshop, you should get a pop up with an options box.

If this doesn't appear, try checking Edit > Preferences>external editor (I think that's the path) and see what settings you have.
 
just had a play and you have to send it from the develop module, then you get the option, hth mike.

edit just opened same shot in the library module and it now has that option most bizarre!!!

You should be able to do that from any of the modules. I presume that since you are trying to create a JPEG you have LR5 - yes? Also after you do the Edit In, do you see the any warning about a mismatch between LR and the ACR version in CS6 - are they the same version anyway?

It still shouldn't prevent you any way, as you still have the option for Lightroom to render the image, not ACR.
 
That's true, but if you choose to use the Open Anyway function and also turn off the warning for future use, it defaults to this option all the time and you can't select the Render in Lightroom option next time around. To do so you need to reset the warning dialogs and make the choice again when the warning pops up.

I have a mis-match between LR3.6 and CS4 and using the Open Anyway function, launches CS4 but doesn't hand over the image, so I always use Render in Lightroom.

Of course this may or may not be relevant to the OPs problems but worth noting anyway.
