LightRoom 3 displays PS6 files much darker.

    Images that I edit in PS6 then save to LR3 are much darker in LR... I do not know how to get both viewing profiles synced. If you have an answer in a simple step by step format, I'd really appreciate it. My system is MacPro, 10.6 with a Samsung Syncmaster display....

    Here are two screen shoots that illustrate my issue... same file both open simultaneously.

I think your profile for LR is ProPhoto which is darker

Would be good to reset LR too, but I do not know how.

Also make sure to use matrix+V2 monitor profiles and not LUT or V4, see

Reset = Edit > Preferences > Presets

Then chose which ones you want back at factory defaults

Thank you... This is exactly what I had to do to get things right again...  WOW  what a difference.
