Hi before when i used to select edit photo in photoshop, any changes i made were brought into lightroom as an alternative version of the picture - this is no longer happening and any changes I make in photoshop are not showing in lightroom.
How do I get my photoshop changes to be imported back into lightroom as I thought one of the purposes of lightroom was to have access to all your pics
It should work but some people make the mistake of using “Save As” in Photoshop. That creates a new document. You need to save and overwrite the rendered tiff file sent from Lightroom
Right-click thumbnail and choose open in Photoshop or press Ctrl+E
Edit in Photoshop
Press Ctrl+W to close and send back to Lightroom
Click Yes to save changes
Go back to Lightroom and you should find a stack with a #2 icon
Right-click and choose Ungroup stack to see both side by side.
Sadly that doesnt work on the new version. This used to work perfectly when I had the old photoshop that was installed locally on laptop, but since moved to new cloud version for 2020 (and earlier), this basic function no longer works
You are still using a version that is installed locally. There is no version of Photoshop that runs in the cloud, you just install it and update it from the cloud. The problem is not the version of Photoshop, it's how you save the image. Photoshop for iPad does indeed save to the cloud, but Lightroom for iPad cannot (yet) send images to Photoshop, so you won't be using that combination.
People that say that the image does not come back usually find that the image does come back, but it is hidden. For example because they filtered on raw (and what comes back isn't raw). Did you check if the image is in 'All Photographs'?
