At present I am using Lightroom 3 with Silver Efex Pro2-1. If I upgrade to Lightroom 5 will I

(2) Is Efex compatible with Lightroom 5
I just downloaded an upgrade version of Lightroom 4. Silver Efex Pro 2 is listed in the "Edit in" menu but does not open when I click on the link. I can open Silver Efex separatelly, but no image is included.

Strange as LR3 LR4 Beta was installed the plugin worked
I just bought Silver Efex pro 2 after uninstalling a pirated version my sister downloaded. When I try to edit a photo in Silver Efex 2 through Lightroom 4 a box comes up and says unexpected error performing command: bad argument #1 to lower (string expected, got nil). I am not good with computers.
Also is there any way to restore factory defaults all throughout Lightroom. Maybe doing that and reinstalling Silver Efex would work? Even when I deleted the pirated version of Silver Efex the Silver Efex still showed up in the Edit In box. I need to get that one to go away so the new Silver Efex will appear in Edit in box I guess.
I'm having problems with Silver Efex Pro 2 after upgrading to PS CS6, worked fine in older versions of PS..Downloaded the latest installer from Nik Software..The installer only find my Lightroom 4.1 when installing, and I have to add CS6 manually (locating the plugin folder, also tried other folders).It works fine in LR4.1, but in PS, the software opens, I apply changes, and clik OK, NIK closes, but nothing happens to my image. The history tab says "Silver Efex Pro 2", but no layers/changes to the original image..64bits WIN7 Enterprise, 12GB ram
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have had a problem with the Nik Software Silver Efex Pro (SEP) plugin running extremely slowly, but only at certain times. It's been pretty good for the past few months, but it suddenly took a nose-dive a few days ago. It takes ages to load the presets and to process the image in Photoshop once I have made my selections in SEP. I just thought that as SEP is a direct plugin to CS6 Photoshop then perhaps it's something to do with the way Photoshop itself runs. I switched the running of Photoshop to 'Run as administrator' (just right click the program in the start menu and go to compatibility tab) and SEP now runs extremely fast. why running as Admin should make such a difference? Are there any problems in running in Admin mode?
I run Norton Internet Security, and thought that as I'm now OK in Admin mode it might be a virus-checker problem, and running in Admin mode was getting around the problem. I do have both versions of Photoshop (32 and 64 bit) included to 'allow' access in Norton.Here is my system config. My PC runs very well in all other respects.

I have loaded NIK Silver Efex Pro onto CS6. The plug in shows up in PS CS6 as normal, however when I have an image up and go plug ins and click on Silver Effex Pro 2 i get a notice saying that this programme has crashed.

View 1 Replies View RelatedPreviously, my LR5 worked seamlessly with both the most current versions of Photomatix Pro and HDR Efex Pro 2. Then neither program worked. Photomatix would accept images from LR5 would process them sometimes but wouldn't send them back to LR5. Sometimes Photomatix would allert me that some of the exported images had the same data - not true. Sometimes 2+,1+, 0, 2- & 1- brackets were interpreted as having a 3+ image. With the Nik software I'd get messages like "Launching external application failed" or "The command 'HDR Efex Pro 2' is not currently available. I contacted Google and we determined that the Nik software worked when opened in Photoshop CS5. It appears that LR5 may be the culprit. I uninstalled and reinstalled LR5. Nothing changed. The Photomatix and Efex Pro 2 plugins reappeared without me doing anything so I wasn't sure I got a clean reinstall.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have attached some pictures, you can notice the flash spots due to reflection on silver color. What's the best way to remove these spots and improve the photo quality. (I understand the best way is to shoot the photos in a specific environment to disallow this effect, but I am asking if there is away to edit it using Lightroom and remove the flash effect).

Each time I want to edit an image from LR in PS (edit in PS as hdr, edit in photoshop as panorama,...) I´m asked to update the ACR module from PS CS5 to ACR 7.3 which is not possible. Is there a possibility that this incompatibility will be abandoned in future updates of PS and/or LR?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am using Photoshop CS6 and Lightroom 3.6. If I open an NEF problem image from my D600 in the new ACR in order to take advantage of the extra power of Process 2012, "develop" it, and then save it as a new DNG file (version 6.6 or older), will ACR "render" the adjustments to the image so that the new DNG will have the changes made to the underlying data so that they will appear when the DNG opened in Lightroom 3.6? At which point the file is available for cropping, exporting, or other adjustments?
I am forced to use Windows XP. I have no choice in the matter for the forseeable future, yet the power and simplicity of Lightroom is too compelling to give up.
I just bought a new laptop with Windows 8..I need a cheaper older version of Photoshop Elements compatible with this....I have been using Elements 7, but no longer have this.Also what version of Lightroom is compatible with windows 8?

View 2 Replies View RelatedCurrently running Photoshop CS6 and a trial version of HDR Efex pro 2 downloaded from the official Nik website. The issue is simply this:
1. I click Merge multiple images or Merge to HDR Efex pro 2 in the file menu.
2. The program becomes unresponsive.
I can't select images, no box pops up for it. It just hangs..I can force quit with task manager and I can alt+tab to other windows, but the HDR efex 2 box and photoshop program can't be clicked, moved, or used at all. It is highly frustrating and I've reinstalled numerous times. I've also loaded up an old copy of CS5 that I had and the same thing happens.
I've recently reinstalled windows and previously CS 5 + HDR Efex worked fine, but since the reformat it now does this.
I get the spinning wheel when I try to instal this on my MAC. I have LR3 and 4, CS5 and NX2. I do not want to work in NX2 as I am not familiar with that software. I am not a tech person, had to let them go. I can get this action to use to complete a print and have it match what another photographer did with this action a few years ago.I also tried to install on my laptop and it seemed to install but I cannot find it...

View 12 Replies View RelatedI just got Nik's HRD Efex Pro2 and I'm having trouble with it. System is iMac running OSX 10.8.3 with 12Gb RAM. When I come back to PS CS6 from HDR Efex using either a Fuji X-E1 or Nikon D800 RAW file, the effect is properly rendered but there is a big black (or sometimes white) box somewhere on the image. Once this happens, all subsequent images loaded have the same or similar defects and the only way to get rid of it is to shut down PS and restart.
When I save the file despite the apparent defect and then look at it in LR4, the saved image is fine so it appears to have something to do with how PS is rendering the image on screen. I called Nik and they said it was a memory problem (a leak) in PS CS 5 and 6. I suppose that is predictable. Nik suggested reducing the size of the available RAM (I'm now at 56% down from 69% which is in the "ideal" range) and changing my Drawing Mode from "advanced" to "basic". Didn't work.
I have been using Nik HDR Efex Pro2 with Photoshop CS6 successfully for over a year on my aging MAC Pro and OS 10.6.8.Now all of a sudden HDR Efex Pro 2 crashes Photoshop as soon as I launch it.
Nik suggests my GPU is out of date but how could it be fine one day and out of date the next. To make sure I ran an update on the MAC OS software. (I cannot upgrade beyond 10.6.8 because some of my software won't be compatible.) I also tried their suggested replacing the .cfg code in the Nik HDR preference folder. In addition I did an update on CS6 and uninstalled and reinstalled HDR Efex Pro2.
During the time it went from working to not working I might have allowed the recommended updates such as iTunes, Airport, etc. Flash also wanted to be updated and I have heard of some different types of conflicts with this from others.
Still having problems with NIK plugins and CS6. The NIK Color Efex crashes and I get 'missing module' popup message.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI downloaded the trial of PSPx4 and sadly enough the trial does not include Nik's Color Efex Pro 3 (CEP3). What I would like to see, is if the CEP3 window actually fills the screen, or if it is smaller and the user unable to "maximize" it.

I installed 64 & 32 bit version per the installation instructions. Is there anyway I can install Nik Color Efex that came with x5 into x6?
Just recently I've had a problem with CS6 where it creates a partial (tiled) image when "Edit In" from LR4 and when saving back to CS6 from HDR Efex Pro. THe image may have one or several rectangles which may be black, white, or part of the image that's in the wrong place if that makes any sense. All software is running with current updates.

The problem is that whatever I do the embossing always comes out in white/silver when I'm trying to get black. Why the hell is that and why can't it be changed? Does anyone know how?
