    Layers not showing in Photoshop

    Thank you Johan. Yes I did tick layers in the window drop down menu. And tried many things but no layers window. Last night I did manage to contact Adobe and they played around with it - I gave them access to my computer and eventually the problem was fixed. I don't know what it was as...

    Exporting DNG files

    Thank you both very much....so I have some more to think about. If he does open my raw file in CS6 the process version will be 6 iterations behind what is on my updated subscription plan. Also I've noticed that if I open an old proprietary raw file, say 6 years old, which I would have on my PC...

    Exporting DNG files

    Thank you Linwood and sorry about mistaken identity!! I'm interested in pursuing this as it helps my understanding of Adobe & Lightroom. I still think exporting as DNG is better than TIFF. - Better still if my friend just gets the subscription from Adobe. I have an old computer (still going fine...

    Exporting DNG files

    I have a friend who still uses Photoshop CC6. When I send him images he requests them as TIFFs, stating he can’t open raws from cameras launched after 2013. Am I correct in saying that if I convert my proprietary raws to DNG in Lightroom and export as DNG they should open in the version of Raw...

    Lightroom graduated filter

    This is not a problem for me…but I have wondered why the graduated filter tool (and the radial filter) do not allow adjustment of temp. settings in Kelvin instead of just blue to yellow etc. as if the image is not a raw file? Des C

    Update Camera raw

    Since last post I have been in contact with Adobe and they accept there is a problem. They said they are having "Sales" look at it as there may be something wrong with the set-up to allow me updates. Fingers crossed and still waiting. Des C

    Update Camera raw

    Thanks, Yes, I looked at "installed" apps and "all apps" but no difference there. Since then I uninstalled Adobe CC Desktop App but when I tried to re-install it attempts to load but freezes at 5% along the indicator bar and remains that way. I get rid of this frozen window by Task...

    Update Camera raw

    Thanks Jim, Yes I forgot to mention that. When I click on those 3 vertical dots I get exactly the same thing...no updates etc. My computer is Toshiba laptop intel core i7. Operating system is x64. RAM 8g. Sometimes my photo files will build up to almost 1g and it handles that OK. Recently my Wi...

    Comments Panel at end of Library module

    Cletus and Jim, I appreciate your help. I now see that reference (but on page 571)... Is my Missing FAQ due for updating? And for the record my LR version is 2015.7 and since I started with LR4 I have found LR great. Again many thanks Des Coates

    Comments Panel at end of Library module

    Can anyone tell me please how can I add comments in that section at the bottom of the Library Module? It just says "not available". I would like to add comments (assuming it would go to the metedata. I can't find anything about it in LR Queens FAQ. I'm using LR CC.

    Adobe CC update

    Thanks Hal/Jim, I'll try that as soon as I get some spare time (which I have run out of at the moment) Otherwise I'm enjoying LR and PS. and the steep learning curve they present Des C

    Adobe CC update

    Thanks Hal. I tried that but didn't change anything. I think now it may be an older version of the cc app which I can't find?? And which needs to be uninstalled?? I'm self taught on computers so not as proficient as I would like. Des C
