Question

Topaz Sharpen AI doesn't work with LRC version 11.3

When I take a photo from LR version 11.3 to be edited in the Topaz Sharpen version 4.1.0 plug-in the system adds a duplicate photo to the library without actually going into Topaz to edit.  The plug-in is showing as active in LR.  Anyone experiencing this?  It was working fine until I updated LR.

 

Thanks

    I had to recreate the menu options in Lightroom Preferences->External editing. Simply select the preset that isn't working and hit the choose button and choose the current Topaz app. Then save it as a new preset and delete the old one. Here you can also change the default to use zip compression to save a lot of disk space. Never understood why the ones the app installs do not use compression. There is no loss of quality and it saves you a lot of disk space.

    Make sure Lightroom is closed:

    Delete the plugin located at "~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom/External Editor Presets/TopazSharpenAI.lrtemplate"

    Download the full installer of SharpenAI:

    https://downloads.topazlabs.com/deploy/TopazSharpenAI/4.1.0/TopazSharpenAI-4.1.0-osx-Full-Installer.dmg

     

    Launch SharpenAI and in SharpenAI go to Help->Install Photoshop plugin.

    Now try and see if it works. I had the same issue and this is how I resolved it.
