P: “Send to Lightroom” in Photoshop for iPad not working

Hi there,

 

On an iPad Pro I am trying to use the full workflow starting from Lightroom Mobile, editing in Photoshop for iPad and, after my edits, returning back to Lightroom using the command "Send to Lightroom" now available in Photoshop for iPad (ver. 2.3). The issue is that, after hitting "Send to Lightroom", although the control is returned to Lightroom (where I can see a message saying "Receiving Photoshop Document" and the wheel spinning in the little cloud icon (top right) and "Loading Photo" message), the loading process never ends and I cannot see any Photoshop document popping up in Lightroom as it should be. The problem has been presenting itself on and off, but it seems now to be permanent. All apps and iOS are updated to the latest version. Has anybody else experienced the same issue or have an idea of how to resolve it? I have a ticket open with Adobe, but so far no resolution.

 

Thanks for your help,

Nic

At the risk of being annoying, have you tried restarting the iPad?

The open in Lightroom tan disappeared from my iPad overnight. Any idea what the issue is? Using iPad Pro

It seems to get stuck and I I often need to tap “Edit in Photoshop 2-4 times before it completes. After editing in Photoshop, send to Lightroom seems to work consistently fine

Addition, sometimes Lightroom sends to Photoshop ok, and other times not. I just tried to edit something in Photoshop from Lightroom and the image did not pass correctly. Inconsistent.

Not working again. Sends as designed from Lightroom, will not round trip from Photoshop back to Lightroom. No option to do so. It seems to have vanished. Have uninstalled and reinstalled photoshop. Have restarted the iPad. Currently using the Publish and Export workaround. Any solutions?

The only time that it doesn't work is when Photoshop wants to show you a new feature and it opens with that screen instead, but that's common with iOS apps

Since recent Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop on iPad this feature is working flawlessly. I am ususing Lightroom v7.1.1 and Photoshop version 3.2.

I'm glad to hear it turned out to be working. It sounds like we could both  improve on the performance and the information to the user about results. Thanks!

I was probably impatient as I saw later that it saved the corrections that I had made in Photoshop and I was able to access the file in Lightroom, thank you for the reply
