P: Lightroom Classic>Edit in PS: Long Delay+Erroneous Error Message opening Ps Beta 2024 25.0

I just recently updated Photoshop Beta to 2024 v25.0 on my Windows 11 machine.

 

Now when I try to open photos from LR 12.4 using the "edit in...", it hangs up for a time and then comes up saying "The file could not be edited because Adobe Photoshop 2024 could not be launched."

 

When I hit "Ok" it then opens the file in Photoshop 2024. 

 

This happens with every file, even if Photoshop 2024 is already up and running at the time. 

 

This does not happen with 2023 v24.7.

After updating LrC to v12.5 the pass-through to Ps v24.7 is not working for me.
 
Understanding LrC v12.5 resolved the issue for Beta Ps v25.
 
Again removing Beta Ps v25 and rolling back LrC to v12.4 and Ps v24.6 then restarting Mac all is now well.

In der aktuellen LR Classic Version (12.6) ist es mal wieder nicht möglich, Bilder

zu Bearbeitung an Photoshop zu übergeben. Photoshop öffnet zwar, aber das Bild wird

nicht geladen. Wenn man es als SmartObject aus LR öffnet klappt das aber.

Es klappt werder mit Photoshop noch mit Photoshop beta.

 

Kennt jemand einen Workaround?

 

Vg,

Hallo,

habe festgestellt das ich keine Bilder mehr von Lightroom in Photoshop als Smartobjekt öffnen kann. Es kommt die Fehlermeldung "Datei kann nicht gestartet werden da Photoshop 24 nicht gestartet werden konnte" Außerdem habe ich die Beta Version in der cloud installiert da geht es!!! Und ich habe das Gefühl das er immer zuerst auf die Beta Version zugreift, wie kann man diese gegenenfalls vermeiden.

The Lightroom command: "Open as layers in Photoshop" does not work. Photoshop starts but no image is loaded. Mac OS Monterey, Lightroom 12.5 Photoshop 24.7.0 Does anyone know a solution?

I have the same problem. I only can open it in PS as Smart Object.

I can confirm that the issue with external editing in PS Beta 25.0 has been fixed with the latest Lightroom update to version 12.5. It worked again.

Greetings all,

 

Lightroom Classic 12.5 released this evening.  If used in conjunction with PS Beta 25.0 or later, this erroneous error message plus long open wait time should be mitigated. Please install LrC 12.5 and make certain that your Beta is up to date.

 

If you do not see the update in your Creative Cloud Application, you can refresh it by hitting [Ctrl/Cmd]+[Alt/Opt]+[ R ].

Note: It may take up to 24 hours for your update to be available in your Creative Cloud app.

 

This thread will be closed as of this posting. If you see continued issues with an error message or long load time (minutes), please start a new thread and include complete system and software version information.

 

Thank you for your patience.

Downgrading worked before, but not we have to "upgrade" to the broken version in order to use Generative Fill. Good job Adobe!

Hi emrosedee,

Have you tried using the export option in LRC suggested by RichPolk on about page 41 of this community chat? It's a workaround that will certainly reduce the time that you spend waiting for the file to open in PSbeta 25.0. It'll certainly get you through till Adobe fixes the problem properly. Well worth a try. 
Good luck.

Hi, I'm still having issues with mine, and I use it in Windows. I checked my external editor stuff via the preferences menu, and it's set to Adobe Photoshop 2024, with no options to choose any other programs.

The lengthy wait to do AI generative fill is too long in my workflow. And not being able to revert back to 24.7 is really unhelpful. I get that the program is still in beta, but it's a HUGE inconvenience to creatives who have become accustomed to using the generative fill. It takes several minutes before an image from Lightroom eventually opens in Beta, and even then, I get a handful of error messages first. Any chance of this being fixed soon?
