Lightroom to photoshop and back. Doesn't seem to work in the new update!

Using lightroom (cloud based), I used to be able to use the 'edit in photoshop' feature. Then when i'm done in photoshop I simply save and close, then the file automatically transfers back to lightroom. This doesn't seem to happen anymore.

 

Has anyone found a workaround for this?

 

It's super frustrating : /

    I tested on an M1 running Monterey and have no issues. The file returns from Phootsohp to Lightroom (5.0). 

    I am guessing a Preference Reset of Photoshop may be in order.

      16" Macbook Pro (with M1 Pro) here. Clean install of latest versions of MacOS, Photoshop, and Lightroom CC. No importing of settings. Went the extra to delete the preference just in case they come over somehow. Still have the issue and have lost hours of work, very frustrating.

       

      My steps to reproduce

      1. In Lightroom CC, right-click image to edit in Photoshop. 
      2. The image will open in Photoshop and I can edit it to my liking.
      3. Save image and close the file.
      4. Go back to Lightroom CC and the file is not there and there is no indicator it is importing.

       

      It does not matter if the the file had one layer and I added another layer or it had multiple layers and I merge down to one, the same exact thing happens every time.

       

      PS, Are they ever going to fix the issue where there is a phantom image(s) that is always syncing? I've had this problem from day one years ago regardless of Windows/Mac or hardware.

        13" MacBook Pro 2020 M1 running Monterey. LR Classic and PS 2023. Same issue. I am at least glad to see it has nothing to do with me.

        I tried the easy fixes in PS Preferences. Could not find the user/library/preferences folder so did not delete that.

        When I go to "Import" in LR and go to the folder where the edited PSD files are, I can see them, and LR says they are already imported. I would be happy enough at this point to just be able to take the extra step to import all of the edited files. I tried doing it from within LR and also dragging them into LR. Neither worked. Anyone know how to do that?

        @Douglas27818280fsld  You may be better to start a new thread with your question.

        However your post is mixing Lightroom-Classic with Lightroom. Two totally different Apps, and you posted in the Lightroom Ecosystem forum- so which App is it?

        Using the [Edit In] function (for BOTH LrC and Lr) should automatically return the new Ps image to the Catalog.

         

         

        Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.1.1, Photoshop 27.3.1, ACR 18.1.1, Lightroom 9.0, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.2 .

        I see the same thing in MacOS Monterey on a 16" MacBook Pro M1 Max. The file opens in Photoshop, you can save in Photoshop and close it, but it does not come back in Lightroom. On closer inspection I found that it is saved locally in the Lightroom library (in a 'TemporaryEdits' folder) but does not seem to sync back to the cloud. I do not get the 'TIFF Options' dialog, however. It saves just fine without showing that dialog, so that might be a preference setting in Photoshop that you must change.

        How did you delete the photoshop preferences? I tried to 'reset preferences' but that didn't work for me.


        I've always been able to make edits in Lightroom, then Edit in Photoshop, then Save, Close Photoshop, and my photo with edits will appear in Lightroom. I've been researching for months, I've uninstalled and reinstalled both. It is not a filter issue, or located somewhere else in the album. Any help would be appreciated, I'm going crazy over here! Oh, and every once in a while it works, like once every 82 times I re-try to edit a photo. UGH

          Not seeing any such problems (MacOS Big Sur) when selecting an image in an Album, the retuned Tiff from PS is returned and automatically stacked with the original image in the same Album. Because it's stacked, the new returned Tiff appears on top of the original so to see both original and Tiff the stack has to be expanded. What source are you using: an album, All Photos, or a search/filter?

          I'm operating from OS Monterey. The old version (Big Sur) was fine. But now i seem unable to save back into lightroom. When I hit save this pops up...

           

           

          And no matter what option you pick none of them save back into lighroom.

            Check this: Go to Preferences - File Handling in Photoshop and make sure that 'Ask before saving layered TIFF files' is unchecked.
