Lightroom :: Sync History Movements

May 11, 2012

For the second time, which is two times too many, I've found myself browsing through images and noticed they were all starting to change. Essentially I've apparently instigated a sync settings command to too many images and it wasn't immediately noticable when it happened so I couldn't just do a Ctrl-Z to undo it. I want to make sure I'm not missing something that would allow me to sync all selected images back a step in History. I would think this would be an easy enough feature to add to any version of Lightroom (using LR3 for now because I'm waiting for the LR4 I purchased to get an update that might speed it up). I've checked out auto script programs but they're a bit unweildy and frankly Lightroom should have that feature available.

Lightroom :: 4.4 Metadata Auto Sync Switch Missing From Sync Button

Jun 29, 2013

I am using Lightroom 4.4 on a 2013 Macbook Air OS 10.8.4.
 
I cannot see the Switch enables auto sync on the Metadata sync button. Its currently visible on another machine a MacPro with Lightroom v4.3. I find this useful to be bale quickly enable and disable the syncing of metadata. Has this been dropped in v4.4 or have I missed a prefs setting somewhere?

Lightroom :: Toggle Sync Button To Auto Sync State

Jun 12, 2012

I am trying to adjust two D800 files simultaniously. Thus I select both images, toggle the Sync button to the Auto Sync state.
 
But, the adjustments done to the most selected image do not copy over to the other image, while this is the expected behaviour.

Photoshop :: Couldn't Use History Brush Because History State Doesn't Have A Corresponding Layer

Aug 20, 2013

I am trying to learn layers and layer masks.  I loaded an image, than control J to duplicate it.  I then added a layer mask.  Everything good so far.  I then went to filters chose a blur.  Then went to brushes with black as my foreground color, I just wanted to brush away the blur, and got an error message. "could not use the history brush because the history state does not have a corresponding layer."

Photoshop :: Could Not Use History Brush - History State Lacks Corresponding Channel - CS6?

Mar 24, 2013

Everytime I try to use my history brush, that error pops up and I have no clue why. If I try to just open a blank document and use the brush it does not give me this error and I can "use" the brush but you cant see anything on the project.

so when this error happens im trying to do a project and say I place a file(picture) into the project and this is the very first thing I do. I place it, then I size the image down some. I then make a new layer to use the brush for behind the picture and then this is when I get the error. I have no clue what is wrong

Lightroom :: Can't Sync From IPhone

Oct 3, 2012

i've been able to import photos directly from my iphone by plugging my phone into the USB/iPhone cable (and then into my mac) and then doing "Import Photos from Device" and my iPhone would appear with the standard grid of photos.  Ive imported a thousand photos or so from my phone that way. 
 
when i plugged my phone in and tried to import my photos, in LR 4.1 (not 4.2), many of the new photos said "no preview available".  I thought that was odd, so i thought i'd disconnect and then reconnect the phone. 
 
At that point, the import screen says "no photos found".The photos are still available on the phone itself, but not in LR. I rebooted and upgraded to LR4.2, but still i'm getting the same thing.

Lightroom :: Brush Name In History Panel?

Oct 12, 2013

I would like to know if there is a way to see the names of the brushes used in the History Panel??  All it says is "Add brush stroke"  I that if you click on the brushes dots on the photo that you can see which brush is used, but I hate editing with those on, so I turn them off.  Which means I have to do several clicks just to see what brushes I have already used. It would be so useful to just be able to see in my history which ones I used especially when you have to stop editing before you are totally finished with the photo and come back to it later.

Lightroom :: Copy Part Of History?

Sep 28, 2013

Using Lightroom 5 I made several changes to a photo.  One of the first changes I made was to crop.  I now find I cropped too much.  Is there a way to copy or save the several correct changes and redo the crop?  Is there a way to start a new copy of the photo with some of the changes from the first copy?

Lightroom :: 3.4.1 - History Missing After Repair

Jan 7, 2012

I am using Lightroom 3.4.1 and Windows 7.  Upon shutting Lightroom down I got a message that Lightroom was unable to backup my catalog until it was repaired.  When I reopened Lightroom it gave me the option to repair the catalog.  The repair was "successful" and Lightroom opened as usual.  However, the history panel of every single picture is blank BUT the pictures did retain my Lightroom changes. How to get that back?  I do have a catalog backup but it does not include the work I just finished as I was shutting down Lightroom.  I also have all my RAW files as well as their sidecar files.

Lightroom :: How To Move Develop History

Oct 19, 2013

I know it's in my catalog in the back up, but is there an easier and less data heavy way to move this data?
 
I only ask before previous iterations of LR had the develop history in the XMP data but it's changed location. I hand off my edits to a supervisor who oversees the final pass before it reaches a client's hands and he like seeing my work progress and teaching small corrections (as to tune to his studio image standards). It hasn't been a problem for a long time but he recently found the lack of develop history.

Lightroom :: All History Steps Disappear

Sep 17, 2013

LR5 Win7.  I open a previously edited image in Develop module.  I click on the first step of the history ("import....").  Immediately, all the history steps disappear, and a new step appears, "Post-crop vignette style: paint overlay."  There are now just two steps in my history. When I try to click on the first/origial step, LR doesn't let me do that, it immediately jumps to (highlights) the "post-crop..." step.  If I go to the Effects panel, the only option under style is "paint overlay."  If I add a few more edits (change color, etc.) they work fine. But as soon as I click on the first history step, the same thing happens again.
 
Update as i work on this: if I click on ANY previous step in the history, LR adds the "Post-crop..." step at the top and does not then let me click on any previous step.
 
This does not happen with photos I have edited recently.  It only happens with previously edited photos.  I think it only happens with photos with 2003 or 2010 process, but it doesn't happen with all of them.
 
Then I tried opening one of these photos in the Develop module.  I create a virtual copy, then go back to the original.  I click on the first history step in the original, it does this strange thing described above.  If I add more history steps to the original, then click on the first step, it also does this strange thing.  However, if I add edits to the virtual copy, then click on the first step, it does not do this strange thing.
 
What I have tried:

-I have opened and restarted LR.
-I have gone back to a catalog from a few days previously and it exhibits the same behavior.
-I have tried updating the process before clicking on the earlier step, and this does not prevent the behavior.
 
I wanted to try to re-install LR, but when I try to download it, I get this message, "We're sorry, something seems to be wrong on our end. Please try again later."

Lightroom :: 5 History And Interface With Photoshop CC?

Dec 10, 2013

I understand Lightroom 5 does not change the original image; instead it maintains a delta-like file within its catalog.  When, in Lightroom 5, I select 'edit in Photoshop CC' and make changes then return to Lightroom 5 does Lightroom 5 delta those changes in its catalog or is the original image replaced?.
 
Also, in Lightroom 5, when I go back using 'History' and find a version I like; how do I lock that in.  That is how do I ignore/delete the most recent changes I no longer want?

Lightroom :: 4 - How To Export Files As RAW / DNG With History

Say I have a file with the following history: 

Export
Crop
White Balance: Custom
Auto-Tone

Lightroom :: Sync Spots Not Working In 5.3

Dec 12, 2013

Spot syncing with "no" spots is not working in Lr5.3 (did not work in 5.2 either)
 
If I reset the spotting on a source photo and sync the "NON" spotting to a target photo that has spotting, the spotting is not cleared as it should be on the target photo.
 
If I reset the spotting on a source photo and put ONE new spot in the source photo and sync this ONE spot to a target photo that has spotting, all the spotting is removed from the target photo and the ONE spot is the only one in the target photo as expected.
 
Shouldn't the sync of spotting always work the same, with or without spotting in the source photo?
 
I think this should be considered a bug or at least a design flaw.  OSX 10.8.5   LR5.3

Lightroom :: No Sync Settings Function?

Lightroom :: Synchronize Folders Is Out Of Sync

Nov 28, 2012

I keep my photos in a folder, with hundreds of sub-folders.
 
I use Photo Mechanic for tagging, selecting, purging and meta-data management becuase it is very fast.  Then I import into LR by asking it to synchronize with the top folder.
 
The problem is that LR4 (and LR3 before it) identifies a couple of thousand photos as being "new" and needing to be imported, then when I tell it to Import by clicking the "Synchronize" button, it grunts for a minute or two and then comes back and says "No photos or videos were found to import".  So if there is nothing to import, why does it keep saying there are 2,563 "new" photos?  It hangs on this same number for weeks at a time, though it has crept up from LR3 when it was only about 1600.
 
Why is Synchronize out of sync?  How can I get it really sychronized and keep it synchronized?
 
I have the box regarding JPGs adjacent RAW checked so that they are treated as separate images.  I've tried checked and unchecked and it has no effect on this problem.

Lightroom :: 4 - How To Find Images Preset History

Nov 28, 2012

I am using Lightroom 4 and developed a picture in it last week.  I saved the picture onto my desktop and sent it to my client.  She loved the way it looked and wants other pictures to look the same way (tone/cold color, etc).  I did not save the history as a preset before I exported it out.  How can I get the history back from when I worked on it last week?  Is it stored in the pictures data somewhere or do I have to try and recreate the image adjustments??

Lightroom :: Missing History Of Adjustments After Importing?

Jan 12, 2012

I have installed the new Beta for Lightroom 4. It is unable to use or import from the existing LR3 catalog so I've had to create a new one.
 
Aalthough the most recent adjustments have been applied, I've lost the history and also attributes such as flags and ratings. This also happens when in LR3 I've imported images from aother LR catalog.
 
No one seems to understand what I mean but I can't explain it any more clearly!
 
I would like to find a way to restore the history or record of adjustments for each image. They must be saved somewhere as LR3 had them.

Lightroom :: Removing Reset On History Stack?

Jun 22, 2013

I'm using Lightroom 3.6
 
I have a large catalog of images I have touched up to prepare for use.
 
Today when I loaded the catalog, every image has a 'reset' at the top of this History stack. This is undoing all my modifications, but all the operations I did perform are still listed under that.I want to remove the 'reset' from the top of History of every image in this catalog so I get back to what I had already done.

Is it possible to make a VC where the copy hase the detail of the changes made to the original.

Currently, all the changes are in the copy, but the detailed history of changes is not there. This precludes making the same backward steps that one could do with the original.
