There are many bugs in Catalina , one being the fact that RAW images that previously could be edited in Photos. This is no longer the case , at least until a fix is released . Any workarounds ?
iMac 27", macOS 10.15
However is still the Luminar 3 unable to save edited images under Catalina , but this is not related to Apple rather Skylum who I understand is working on the problem.
I can currently not use any of the Skylum apps on Catalina, only with clumsy work-arounds.
To edit a. photo in Luminar 3 I have to open it in the full editor from the "Image > Edit with > Others" menu item. Once Luminar opens and I have finished editing the Photo, I have to use "File > Share > Open in Photos".
This will save an edited version in Photos and I have to deal with versions of the same image.
I hope the new Luminar 4, to be released on November 11, will fix this problem.

Hello, maxrobert.
Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
From what I understand is that you're no longer able to edit RAW photos since updating to macOS Catalina. I'd like to help. What happens when you try to edit a RAW photo, do you get any errors?
I'd double check the camera compatibility: Digital camera RAW formats supported by iOS 13, iPadOS 13, and macOS Catalina
Then see if you're able to do so in a test user account and safe mode:

Hello, and thank you for getting back to this question. This was however cleared after I restarted and used the Disk Utility for a quick repair. After that I could edit the raw images without any error messages. However is still the Luminar 3 unable to save edited images under Catalina , but this is not related to Apple rather Skylum who I understand is working on the problem.
Best regards
