  1. Yes please. Then, when you again try to open a photo from LR to PS, it should come up with a dialog with some options. Does it?
  2. One more question, then I'm completely stumped ... I know that Photoshop, in its Preferences, has a button that says "Reset all warning dialogs". I assume Lightroom has the same button in its preferences. Can you find it?
  3. Whoa. That's weird. Haven't you got the latest version of Photoshop?
  4. Ok, that's interesting. If you go and find a raw file on your hard drive, and double-click it, what happens? In which program does it open?
  5. Ok, now check Lightroom's preferences to make sure they're pointing to the right version of Photoshop, I guess. 30 days, Jenny. Just give me 30 days to change your life. https://www.damiensymonds.net/bridge-30-day-challenge Not only will your life be MUCH simpler, your images will be better as well.
  6. Also, have you checked with photos from a few different sessions? Are none of your photos at all able to open in Photoshop? Or just from one set?
  7. Just to check - you don't have any older version of Photoshop installed on your computer?
  8. Ok, we'll come back to the colour profile problem. Let's fix this problem first. Does it give you an error message when you try to open a photo from LR to PS?
  9. Have you checked over your settings? https://www.damiensymonds.net/color-space-settings-for-the-lightroom-user.html
  10. That's correct. Yet another reason why the "Macs are best for photographers" belief is a big fat fallacy. Macs are the WORST. So, do you have another screen in your house that you can plug in to the computer and run as a second screen, and see what happens when you calibrate that? If you could elaborate on that, it would be great.
  11. A couple of hours for Channel Mixer if you didn't actually stop to experiment along the way.

  14. Trust me. On the basis of this photo, I can confidently say you are NOT on top of raw editing.
  15. Do you think this would be ok? I hope you'll start with the Raw Class. It's the first step in the workflow, and everything hinges on it.
  16. The patch tool is definitely a legitimate approach here. The only thing about that tool is that it can get tricky when you get very close to hairs - have you found that? Here is another method I tried (a combination of this and this). How does it compare to your patch tool one?
  17. Yes, that's what I'm after, thanks, but please read the instructions again.
  18. Oh. Actually, I'm very worried about what the moisture has done to the texture of the dress. May I also have a 100% crop from about here?
  19. Hi Jo, While I'm experimenting with the dress, can you show me a 100% crop of the dry skin area?
  20. Please note how my method kept all their hair. No haircut necessary. I can show you the PSD if you wish.
  21. Yes, it should be "White LED", almost certainly. Ok, so the problem is mainly in the reds and oranges range of the colour spectrum? How are they neutrals, and the blues, greens, browns, etc? Yes, that's my fear. If the bulbs are too warm it can certainly contribute to this. No, the problem isn't the light in which you're calibrating, the problem is the light falling on your prints when you're viewing them. If you turn the lights off and just use the window light, is there any difference?
  22. Hi Wendy, it might be akin to the old "black boxes" problem. Try this: https://www.damiensymonds.net/2015/09/black-boxes-and-other-weird-behaviour.html And yes, try to run CleanMyMac regularly: https://macpaw.com/cleanmymac
