Question

"Edit in Photoshop" not working in Lightroom Cloud

I am running the latest version of Lightroom CC (Cloud Based) and Photoshop 23.5. In the past, I have been able to open a picture from Lightroom CC to edit in Photoshop and upon saving, it imports those changes back to Lightroom CC. I haven't been able to do this in the past few updates of Photoshop and thought it would be fixed.

 

After searching for answers, all the previous answers were in regards to Lightroom Classic CC. Nothing found for LR CC. Attached is a screenshot of my issue.

Hi there,

 

Thanks for highlighting this issue.

Which version of Windows do you have? Did it start happening after an update?

Also, is there more than one version of Photoshop installed on your system? Which image format are you working on?

Would you mind sharing your workflow? 

"Edit In" will not work if the original files are unavailable to Lightroom. Where are the images located?
Could you please try deselecting "Use Graphics Processor" in Lightroom's Preferences > Performance, then relaunch Lightroom and let us know if it helps?

 

Thanks,

Ranjisha

I have Windows 10 and this was not an issue a few months ago before I updated Photoshop to I believe version 22 or version 23. 

 

How I go about my workflow is I import photos from a shoot to Lightroom and do batch editing there. If I need to fix something such as using the Clone Tool in Photoshop, I used to use the Edit in Photoshop feature under the Edit tab up top and it would open in Photoshop. Once done, I would save the image on Photoshop and close the document and it would import itself back into Lightroom with those changes from Photoshop.

 

"Edit In" used to work with this workflow while using Lightroom (not Classic) and had no issues before. I have tried the Use Graphics Processor deselection and nothing changed.

Thanks for the details.

You can try resetting Lightroom's preferences using the steps mentioned here: https://adobe.ly/2JSym5e.

Please back up your preset prior to resetting the preferences. Let us know how it goes.
