Applies to. Does not apply to. We updated Core5 this summer, and system requirements changed. Older versions of the Core5 iPad app were retired in July You will no longer be able to use iPad versions below 4.
This is why some photographers have a interactive pen display or similar drawing tablet to do heavy editing. Drag the main window of Lightroom to the iPad. Now the whole screen of your iPad is a Wacom tablet. I use a Bamboo stylus to edit, but any cheap stylus or even your fingers will do it. On the photo below I wanted to apply clarity only to the road, so I used Duet Display and my stylus to brush it on my iPad easily.
Maybe this is not the best example as the area to brush is big enough to do it on the laptop, but you get the point. And I like the photo! It works even as a fourth display, to suit your needs whatever they are! Hi Oliver! Sad to hear that David. I though I can mix the iPad and the macbook , but it seams is not possible. How about if I use Duet display so I can work my phot in the iPad Pro Lightroom but using full size image in the macbook pro.
Perhaps using the new Lightroom in the iPad can be better option. However, take into account that there is a lag between changing a slider and seeing the result on the display, which could be annoying when you are making lots of changes. That sounds nice. Will be giving Astropad a try. I have this problem, can you help me? Menu Item Menu Item. Post date. Is that possible with Duet display? Best regards Oliver. Post author.

Sorted all my photos over just the way I wanted them in photomanager pro last night. Took a look at them this morning and they have all been resorted. Is there a reason the program decided to resort my photos? Was checking meta data last night attached to each photo all seem to be fine.
I did notice the meter data was included on some photos and not on others. Then this morning I checked and no meta date was available. Any idea why? How do you update meta data on images that were imported from my photo stream into photomanager pro? Also, I did download those images from photomanger pro to the root of publish tree photos for ipad on my main computer. I am no longer using photo stream or iphoto. The metadata for this photo has been changed by both Lightroom and another application.
Should Lightroom import settings from disk or overwrite disk settings with those from the catalog? Any idea what I whatever choice I should pick. Not enough information here what metadata, viewed how? Metadata Wrangler plugin lens info is preserved.
The lens info is included in lightrooms meta data info. You can inspect the files sent to Photo Manger Pro e. I like to water mark my images with my copyright with the year the photo was taken. IE I am importing images into PMP , which were made in different years and want to add the water mark based on year the image was made. Another words , I want to be able to water mark photos that were made in with a water mark and photos that were made in with water mark.
Right now all the imported images into PMP are getting the same water mark. It should allow you to create dynamic metadata-based watermarking. It seems simpler; what are we missing? I have no control over that iOS app, so have to work with what it supplies. Why do keep deleting my comment, I spent a lot time trying to explain and providing the information and then you just delete. This has happened twice now. Sorry that it took a while to get to them. I made an edit on one of my published photos using your plugin.
The edit was unchecking the watermark , but I wanted the watermark to remain on the rest of the published photoes, however, the watermark was removed from all the photos. Anyway to make the edit to a individual photo and not the hole batch? The longer-term solution is to build a second Publish Service with settings the same as the first, except for the watermark setting. John from Ridgway, CO here. All that being said, the Photos app is probably fine for most folks; my approach is for those who want something better.
Just display for me, thank you. Thanks for the quick response Jeffrey! Love that term…. Seamless sync would be nice, though. Another constraint related to the builtin Photos app and iTunes is the need to perform a complete sync of your iDevice to download a single picture. With your tools, I can just add the one changed picture in next to no time. Have LR locked up while transfering a large batch is a bit annoying. Is there anyway to run the sync in background? As for 2, I can try to put the process in the background….
It works like a charm. Have you outlined a procedure to complete the trip to Photo manager Pro? I have the photos on my iPad via dropbox. How do I sync them with Photo Manager Pro app? I am using LR5. I have downloaded collection Publisher and installed it using a Dropbox file as the root. I then installed Photo Manager Pro on my ipad. I tried to do a FTP sync and have failed more times than I can count.
I then had the bright idea that it was because my Mac using OS Any other ideas? Both the Lightroom computer and the iPad must be on the same local non-guest network. It connects to the server but instantly gives the error? Are you sure both the target and source are on the same non-public WiFi network? A public WiFi network, like in a hotel lobby, often isolates every connection from every other, so even two devices on it can never talk to each other directly.
Hence your Collection Publisher is appealing. I put a couple image sets into ordinary collections-each for a specific album. Question Apparently there is no way to copy a collection to the Publish Service? Q When copying these images into the corresponding iPad jfCP collections, my arranging is lost.
Must I always rearrange manually? Q I have jfCP rename with a leading integer, so my desired order is now locked into the file names. If I now add a new image to the collection, there is one new item to publish. When I publish it, it restarts the image numbering sequence at the beginning. Q Is there any way to use my carefully organized collection from this iPad jfCP service…. Or must I recreate the collection from scratch. Q I found the Collection Agent plugin online which syncs collections—and thus might allow me to create a collection and then reuse it in a couple of jfCP services.
How can it write filenames now that will retain the ordering you want with whatever unknown future additions you make? You might try the Collection Agent plugin after making a backup of your catalog. It might work. Thanks for the answers. The bigger nuisance as you suggest is duplicating collections for use in several publish services—without having to manually set user order in each collection. This is maddening, painful! I must really not understand the publish services, cause this seems like one of the most obvious features one would want.
I was able to copy a standard collection definition to a jfCollectionPublisher collection. However, the photos in the copied collection lost my desired user ordering which I had done in the source collection. This is the same result as if I manually copied all photos in a source collection and then paste them to a destination collection: The sync operation likewise lost the user order. So that unfortunately gains us nothing. I hope some workaround develops to avoid having to precisely repeat my efforts to re-order identical collections of hundreds of images….
Really enjoy your article, thanks a lot for sharing it. Enjoy reading your articles. One question for you. Is there any way to review RAW files on an iPad without importing the files. The read speed though for each file is a few seconds and operation with its buttons clunky. So its not a great review tool. I do not carry a laptop for weight issues but carry an iPad for browsing, reading and writing. I do NOT want to import or convert or process the files, just plain review and reject.
I have searched the net but the only option seems jailbreaking the iPad which I am reluctant to do. Any suggestions will be highly appreciated. I heard that there are camera-connection kits for iPads, but I have no experience with them. I recently upgraded my iPad to IOS 8. After that I noticed that all my custom-named Photo albums were gone. Turns out, they have gone up to the iCloud. I cannot re-sync from iPhoto on my Macbook without upgrading from Mavericks to Yosemite.
I am loathe to upgrade until I hear that all my apps will work with the new operating system. So now I have an even bigger incentive to adopt a workflow as you have outlined. My photos are all stored in Lightroom 5. Do you know if the Lightroom plug-ins are compatible with Yosemite, or should I stick with Mavericks.
Hi Jeffrey. I was having the same problem that Alistair was having: the Crop for iPad extension was just not showing up in the export dialog. I finally disabled all the extensions, then enabled Crop for iPad first, and it showed up. I am using Lightroom 5. Have you looked at the Cloud options with CC.
Surely this workflow is a bit redundant now….. Lightroom renames and exports the files as expected. Viewing the exported images in Windows Explorer, the tall images are first, followed by the wide. However, the images are not sorted by orientation. What am I doing wrong? I have what may be a naive question about renaming; but I want to pose it before I do what seems to make sense to me some experimentation and jack something up.
Each set of photos within a particular folder uses a different, descriptive, naming convention that I set up in the collection publisher prior to each export. Once they are installed, they will automatically show up in the Lightroom mobile app. To do that, follow the instructions in this post to install them. We recommend doing this step on your computer since there is no easy way to do this on a mobile device.
If you can't do this, download the WinZip app on your mobile device and then unzip them in the app. Most presets you purchase will come in a zipped file folder that you will need to unzip before proceeding. Again, we recommend doing this step on a computer, if possible. Save the preset files you just unzipped to your favorite cloud service we highly recommend Dropbox so that you can then access them on your iPad.
You can also save them directly to your device via the Files or Photos apps. This is because the files are DNG files and most devices aren't set up to read them. Now that you have your presets installed in Lightroom on your iPad, let's go over a few tips to help you start editing right away! Once you have your presets created and saved on your iPad, you will find them in your Lightroom App on the right side by clicking on the icon that has two overlapping circles see image below.
Make sure the "Yours" folder is highlighted. If you have organized your presets in folders and I hope you have! The presets should be inside! Adding a preset to your image in Lightroom on your iPad is as easy as clicking on it. You can click and try different presets on your image until you find the one you like best. When you have settled on your preset choice, click "Done" at the bottom of the screen and it will apply that preset to your image.
The Edit Section is where you will spend most of your time and find most of the important editing sliders. To get to the Edit Section click on the three horizontal lines with a circle on each line located on the right side of the app.
Along the right side of the Lightroom Mobile App on your iPad you will also see icons for cropping , healing , and other selective edits like linear gradients formerly graduated filter , radial gradients formerly radial filter , and the brush tool. The last two icons allow you to apply edits from a previous edit or create a different version of your edit. It can be tricky getting to know a different version of the classic Lightroom editing tool you may be used to, but learning to edit on mobile will allow you to create social media worthy images from ALL of your devices, no matter where you are!
