2018 Nik Collection Not Compatible

[chrisl1966]

Have just downloaded the new update for PS 2018 and it would appear that you can no longer re-install the Nik collection as a plug in as it is not compatible.  Anybody else noticed this yet or found a way around it?

[chrisl1966]

Well it took some working out but finally sorted.  You can use the plug in but you must un-install first

I've uninstalled and reinstalled but Nik Collection still not working; shuts down Photoshop. I should say Analog and Color Efex not working. HDR seems to work. Haven't tried others. Won't give up yet, but I like the Collection a lot and have used it for awhile. Kind of wish someone would pick it up from Google and keep it going. Guess there's too many alternatives at this point.

Hello,

I am having the same issue, Have you found any solution?

regards

[cocotinho]

Yes. I was worried I would lose my recipes, but I un-installed the whole thing, then installed again. It works with photoshop CC 2018 now. And I didn't lose the recipes. Happy Nikking!

was no problem here. I just restartred

PS, and it was working

[mylandscapeshots]

Works perfectly for me. I just copied and pasted my Nik plugins folder from the PS 2017 folder into the 2018 folder, restarted PS, and it's all there. Works without issue. Didn't need to uninstall/reinstall anything either.

I'm on a MacBook Pro (2014) running MacOS Sierra 10.12.6.

I did the same and it worked. iMac running High Sierra 10.13

[jvansyckle]

I must be doing something wrong. I’ll try again. Also iMac running High Sierra 10.13

Literally copy the Google plugins folder from PS 2017 to PS 2018

I did exactly this and the Nik appears on the menu but all I get is black screen.

It's very poor Adobe don't automatically move your plugins across.

Same every time. Very inconsiderate.

[mylandscapeshots]

They probably don't move it for liability reasons. They don't want to deal with automatic migration issues, so it is up to you to move your plugins.

[Suso Conejero]

But even moving the plugins from the 2015 folder to the 2018 new one it doesn't work, at least in my case.

[mylandscapeshots]

right so i'm asking if you tried deleting the application preferences plist file?

[Megharupa]

Where are the application preferences plist file to be found?

[JerryBEsq]

I don't know. I just moved the apps and it worked. I assume they're where I had them before and the apps found them without any trouble.

Worked a treat, thanks for sharing .

[SummerShaddow]

Moving the Google folder from old Ps plugins folder to the new one worked.  Move it, close it, open it, use it.

Correct in my case, everything works like a charm

Thank you so much

I tried the copy google 2017 to google 2018 trick and it worked fine. I don't know what will happen when I turn off the computer and back on. Thanks!

We are all in luck, DxO has just acquired Nik from Google, so we may see development again
