I am trying to correct chromatic abboration on an image with a lot of purple orange and pink.

Is this possible:

E.g. whne to remove this:

but hten a different part of the image looks like this:

So if i pull to one side i get destortion in another aprt.
I could load both into PS and use deffrent defringe values and mask as required if this is the solution.

You can use a brush mask, and apply the defringe locally.

I often prefer this method, since globally applied defringe can cause color spill in other parts of the image.

It can of course be a lot of work, depending on the image.

I take it you have checked the box for auto correcting Chromatic Aberration? (in the Lens Corrections / Profile panel)

Your screenshot looks more like lateral CA to me - which is what that checkbox addresses. This characteristially varies around the image, but always shifting different hues by varying amounts, working radially from the image's centre in a systematic way.

That's by contrast with the symptoms of longitudinal CA or of overspill 'bloom' - which the fringing controls are there to address. and which can show up anywhere in the image.
