I am trying to download lightroom update 1.3 so that I can use raw files from my new Canon G9 but website seems to be down. Any ideas?

I’ve recently imported raw photos into Lightroom and all of the raw photos are coming out with an over-saturated look to them. All the colors are extremely saturated. They look kind of cool, but not at all like they should Does anyone know why this is happening?

I recently upgraded to Apple’s Leopard OS for my Mac Pro. I also updated to Lightroom 1.3. I waited until 1.3 was available before upgrading the Mac OS. Since upgrading, printing to my Epson Stylus Pro 3800 has been a problem. I updated the printer driver to the latest 10.5 compatible driver from Epson’s website but I still have problems. Prints no longer match what I see on my monitor. Colors are weak and washed out, lacking all saturation. I have tried increasing saturation via Lightroom’s saturation control but it has no effect on the printer’s output. I am using ICC profiles for my paper/printer combination and set printer color control off. I have tried exporting images to Photoshop and printing from Photoshop with the same results—unsaturated, washed-out prints.

Has anyone else encountered printing problems with these latest updates and does anyone have a clue as what is going on?

i tried the 1.3 and have some serious trouble - guess its a bug…

within a folder (lets say 2007>easter) i used to mark x-amount of virtual copies of pictures, then right click on the “easter”-folder to create a new folder (lets say “BW”) as a child of “easter” and check to use the marked fotos in that new folder.

always worked. if i do that now in 1.3 LR does not take the virtual copies inside the new child folder. if i try to do it manually, LR tells me it cant do it unless i move the originals to that new folder - which is definitely NOT what i intended to to…

this is every day procedure for me - until today
any comments?

Hope this is of help to those hunting for the elusive updates. I found the Adobe updater wouldn’t work but then disabled my Hosts file ( optional internet security thing) and now all updates installed.

There are still some Time Machine and print issues (HEAVY print issues, actually) with LR 1.3 and Leopard. Switching to the print module makes your LR to crash 99% of times. Adobe knows it and I really hope for them they fix it quickly. Here’s the link with some technical details

Thanks Alex for the link for Lightroom 1.3 .
Strange this update business - for Bridge and CS3 updates, I find myself directed to the “Browse all downloads by product” page but the latest updates are not there and I’ve done some hunting!

Can we suggest Adobe for a better Lr ? If yes, Where ?

It should be easy for professional photographer to make recommendations to Adobe.

How about a direct link from the HELP menu to Adobe ?
