    Photoshop will not open from Lightroom Classic CC v 13

    I try to open PS 2024 from LR and the splash page opens and stalls. Closing the PS splash page and back it goes to LR and I get a message "The file could not be edited because the Adobe Photoshop 2024 could not be launched" Choosing "OK" the PS opens directly into the work space skipping the...

    Photoshop takes forever to load from LR Classic

    I shut down everything that is not Windows. Same behavior. Sometimes it opens appropriately but only after a long start up. Other software like Topaz, DXO open quickly from LR and PS. But PS shows the same behavior.

    Photoshop takes forever to load from LR Classic

    It takes a long time, up to 5, once 10 minutes, to load from Lightroom Classic. Also sometimes it get stuck on the first splash page which shows recent photos that have been working on. If I close it I get a message "The file could not be edited because PS 2022 could not be launched. I choose...

    "Metadata has been changed..."

    I like the idea of ignoring the message. I have never been aware of any problem with the metadata when I got this message. I am well acquainted with LRC weirdnesses, I will just add this one to the list. Thank you!

    "Metadata has been changed..."

    I understand what you are saying. Looks like I should use "Output" for exported files only which I will not change in "Output" with LRC with any catalog. If I want to make a change to a photo that I have exported to "output" then I should go back to the catalog that produced it. I am trying to...

    "Metadata has been changed..."

    I see the message "The metadata for this photo has been changed by Lightroom and another application, etc." Under what conditions should I check "Import Settings from Disk" or "Overwrite Settings" ? I have one folder of photos that appears in two different LR Catalogs. ZB, folder "Output"...

    "Done" missing on new masking feature screen

    Thank you, thank you many times... I should have known better, but ... I didn't. Sometimes I go down a rabbit hole and stay there. Again, thanks!

    "Done" missing on new masking feature screen

    When I choose to use the new masking in LR 11 this morning I noticed that "Done" is missing in the lower right corner. See attached image. Any ideas as to what is happening? A bug or did I upset some setting or other? I can't continue on until I can close the masking capability.

    "Your graphics processor is incompatible"

    Thanks for telling me that. I could not find that on the NVIDIA www. I think it is some incompatibility with my particular system. There are millions of my graphics boards out there and at least 1000's of them are photoshop users. One would think that if others are seeing this that there would...

    Catalogs Can I move the LR V11 catalog?

    It seems that the catalog should be left on the fastest drive which is your laptop drive. I tried using an external drive for my catalog and it slowed down so much as to be unusable. I back up my catalog by backing up the zipped catalog file and not the huge (in my case) catalog itself. I have...

    "Your graphics processor is incompatible"

    I realized (too late) that I had already posted this problem. Sorry! but it remains un solved. But ... it seems to be causing no harm. Clean install makes no changes.
