Photoshop and Lightroom much more saturated than rest of PC

Let´s see if I can explain what is going on

Whenever I edit in lightroom o PS and export an image, colors are less saturated and less bright.

Sent a tiff file to a friend that uses Mac, opens my image, export it and looks the same as my exported image, both tiff and exported jpeg.

So I guess both LR and PS are using different color profiles than rest of my PC.

Hope I´m making myself clear on this, sorry for my english.

No, but Lightroom and Photoshop support color management using icc profiles, which a lot of other applications don't.

 

It sounds like you are sending from Lightroom to Photoshop as ProPhoto RGB. The problem is that ProPhoto absolutely requires full, end-to-end color management to display correctly. Without color management, a ProPhoto file looks dull and desaturated, a little dark and slightly greenish.

 

I suggest first of all that you go into Lightroom Preferences > External Editing, and change the color space to sRGB.

 

A screenshot would make it a lot clearer.

Actually no, I'm sending from LR to PS in rgb. 

There are no differences in color betwen photoshop and lightroom. This happens when exporting files on either programa.

On mi friends Mac it doesn't happen

There is no such thing as "RGB". That's a generic model. What we're discussing here is specific color spaces: sRGB, Adobe RGB, ProPhoto RGB etc.

 

Go into Lightroom Preferences > External Editing and see for yourself. It will be set to ProPhoto if you haven't changed anything. Change it to sRGB.
