So I had my first newborn shoot today and have been looking at tutorials on how to edit. Quite a few tutorials start in LR and then export to PS. I went to do that and ran into a problem. I own PS CS3. A couple years ago I tried CC to see how LR was and I ended buying LR since I already owned CS3. When I go to export, it only shows CC, which I no longer subscribe to. I figure I can add CS3 as an additional app, however when I went to programs and am not seeing CS3 listed (possibly since it was an upgrade to CC?) However, I can still access/use CS3 through the link in the start menu.
Is there a way to resolve this (get rid of CC but still retain CS3) with out requiring a fresh install of CS3? I didn't want to just uninstall CC without asking, in case it could cause issues.
Hopefully this makes sense.

CS3 is way outdated so your newer version of LR may not be backward compatible with it. I would pick either lr or cs for editing and not go between them. I'm confused on what you mean by "CC" I assume creative cloud but not sure. The only way to do a fresh reinstall of CS3 is to own the disc.

I do have the disk for CS3. I normally don't go between, unless I save it and reopen the file, but I wanted to trying exporting.
I am tying to avoid upgrading to creative cloud right now. Once I start making money, I will be in a better position to go that route. Guess I will just try a fresh install and see if I can make it work. Using this time to learn both programs better. I tend to use LR the majority of the time for editing, and barely scratch the surface of what it can do.
Looking again, it is only $10/mo, so if I can't make it work! I might have to go that route.

Another question... I was able to make the export from LR 5 to CS3. However, because of the difference in versions, it will only export as a tiff. Am I correct in understanding that if I make the jump to CC then I can go back to LR after PS and still be able to edit? I am also making an assumption that because it is exporting as a tiff, any corrections I make in LR will be present in PS. I thought I had read that some adjustments do not show up between different versions, but I am guessing the export there may have been RAW.
Biggest thing I want to be able to manipulate in PS right now is making the backgrounds/floors look more clean (clean up wrinkles, fade out areas). I might be able to do that in LR but have not researched that yet.

Now that I am sitting In front of the computer and LR, I also realize I have my terms wrong. Meaning to discuss editing in not exporting from LR to PS.
