    I keep receiving this error every time I open LR, "Lightroom encountered and error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit" and the app won't open. It said LR would try and fix this error next time I opened it but the error remains. I tried uninstalled and installing the app and the error remains. I have windows 8. Can anyone please help???

    Use Windows Explorer to open the folder containing your catalog. The normal location is Pictures\Lightroom. Locate a folder with the extension .lrdata and delete that folder. Then you should be able to start Lightroom again, and Lightroom will begin building and new previews folder. Do not delete anything else.

    Hi - I'm on a Mac - OSX 10.4.11  Trying to get DNG 6.7 installed.  Says 'sucsessfull' but big line throght icon and app won't open.  Previous DNG was 5.6 and was fine.  Dragged it to trash to delete. and deleted trash. Then realised  poss  mistake and installed AppDelete and reinstaled 5.6 and draged to AppDelete  - along with 6.7 then tried again to instal 6.7 but still no good.  Any ideas what I can do? or where things have gone wrong and how can I fix? Thank you .

    If this is a compatibility issue because you are using an older operating system then there isn't much you can do aside from updating your OS. Do you need DNG converter 6.7? You said that DNG converter 5.6 was working fine. You could reinstall it if it supports your camera.

  • The new version of firefox does not shut down when I close the browser it continues running in the background. In addition it opens Adobe Reader for a brief time and then that closes. Everything worked fine before this new version.

    Firefox automatically loaded a new version recently. The new version does not shut down when I close the browser it continues running in the background. In addition it opens Adobe Reader for a brief time and then that closes. Everything worked fine before this new version.

  • My IPod apps won't open. So I looked it up, and it said to sync the apps to itunes, i tried this, but when i try to sync, the apps won't show up on Itunes. It keeps saying "0 apps". What do i do?

    Ever since yesterday, my Ipod apps won't open properly. I googled it, and couldn't find anything accurate. So i deleted all of the apps, and re-downloaded them. Now they're doing it again. When i tap on it, it looks like it wants to open, but then it goes back to the main menu. I googled it again, and got an answer saying to go to Itunes, uncheck the "sync apps" box, and sync. Then after that, recheck the box, and sync again. Many people said this worked, but it didn't for me. Also whenI go to sync my apps, they don't show up in Itunes. How do I get them to show up in Itunes?

    I had the same issue. After searching around online I found out that you can try downloading another app (it can be any app) onto your ipod. After it finishes downloading see if your other apps open. You don't even have to keep the new app. Just see if your other ones work and you can delete the new one. That should work. If not, try to hard reset it. Here is another apple support link for steps on hard reseting it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430).

    Samuel32_826,
    If you have a virus you can run a system recovery to remove the virus.
    The system recovery will remove everything on your computer including the virus and put the system back to day one. Just like when you opened it out of the box.
    Here is a link that will walk you through the steps of the recovery.
    Let me know how everything goes.

  • ITunes app won't open with the new iOS7 update...what do I do?

    Tried opening itunes app, it comes up for a second then closes, not sure what to do...

    Hello Gigi,
    Thank you for providing so much detail about the issue you are experiencing with the iTunes app after upgrading to iOS 7.
    The first thing I recommend is quitting and relaunching the applications on your iPhone:
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    You can find the full article here:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    If you are still seeing the same issue after quitting and relaunching the iTunes app, I recommend restarting your phone and then resetting if it's still not working:
    Restarting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists, the last thing I recommend is backing up and restoring your iPhone:

  • ITunes app won't open on ipad

    When trying to open the iTunes app on my ipad, it quickly closes. 
    There are a couple of my other apps that are doing the same thing.  The Pitfall and Jetpack app that my son plays also closes during the middle of it loading.
    How do I fix this?

    I just tried this and it did not work :/
    I just got the latest update and I'm wondering if that is what is causing it??
    I got a new movie on itunes on my desktop, and I was trying to get on itunes from my ipad to be able to load it on there.
    Then noticed itunes as well as the other game apps that I mentioned wouldn't load.
    Other apps seem to be working just fine and I've been able to download new apps from the app store.

  • Facebook app won't open, it just goes to the blue page then closes again

    I click to open the Facebook app and it opens to the initial blue Facebook page, but then it just closes again. It does this every time I try to open it an I've tried turning off then restarting my iPod.

    Additionally, the settings app fails whenever I try to view usage information, and the voicemail no longer functions as before.  It now prompts for a password because it is dialing out to Verizon which it never did before.  Any feedback on these issues will be appreciated as well.
