"APPCRASH" trying to launch LR5.2 upgrade, catalog from LR3 stuck?

I recently upgraded my LR3.2 to LR5.2 and upon launching LR5, I keep receiving a "assertion fail" message with "Lightroom - Opening Catalog: DSC_3768.dng.lrcat" displayed on my desktop. Neither system will launch (3 or 5) and I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling both. I have searched around and am at my wits end trying to figure out a solution so that I can begin using my new LR5.2, any advice/tips are welcome and greatly appreciated! ...I have a Windows PC.

Quote ""Lightroom - Opening Catalog: DSC_3768.dng.lrcat"
You have inadvertently created a Catalog using the name of an image file namely DSC_3768.dng. It is recognized by Lightroom as an invalid format and cannot open. Use your OS via Win Explorer or Mac Finder an go to the Lightroom sub-folder where your Catalog files are stored and double click on a previous Catalog file and Lightroom should boot with that Catalog. If this solves your problem the you can remove the offending folder DSC_3768.dng.lrcat"
It may be a good idea to view the video at the following link before you proceed with the above.

LR5 upgraded catalog is only giving LR4 Develop module options - help!

After a successful upgrade to LR5 from LR4 on an old catalog I'm encountering an unusual situation:
when I use the Develop module the palette options are not LR5.
Instead of Shadows, for example, my LR5 catalog is showing Recover and Fill Light from LR4.
I'm working on a MacPro tower and the catalog in question is on an external hard drive.
I've checked the upgrade status and it is definitely a LR5 upgraded catalog.
I've upgraded many catalogs over the years from LR1 to now and this is the first time I've
seen this issue.
Any suggestions appreciated.

You are working with images that were processed with an older version of Lightroom and process 2010. Lightroom honors those previous adjustments and retains the 2010 process. To change to the new 2012 process go to the calibration tab in the develop module and make the appropriate choice.

Problems after upgrading catalog from LR4 to LR5

After upgrading a LR 4 catalog to LR5, I moved some files around between sub folders. I then went to sync up the parent folder. The dialog box said that I would be importing 12,000 photos and deleting 12,000 missing photos. My folder structure for a ctalog is a parent folder named for the year and the sub folders with the date and shoot description. I was synchronizing the parent (year) folder. When it finished, the folder structure was correct and the photos were in their new(correct) folders. However, all of my LR4 adjustments that had been made in LR4 were gone. There was no history either. It was like I was importing for the first time.
I upgraded the original catalog again and the photos were in the original locations just like the first time I upgraded. I tried to sync an individual folder and it imported 50 new files and deleted 50 missing files. Again the LR adjustments were gone. Any suggestions on how to sync an upgraded catalog without losing my prior version adjustments?
Mac OS X 10.9.2
LR 5.3

Yes, synchronizing is not the tool you should be using in this case, when you move photos from one folder to another. The proper method is to reconnect your photos in Lightroom after you moved them via: http://www.computer-darkroom.com/lr2_find_folder/find-folder.htm. But your current catalog has lost its edit information, so this will not help on your current catalog. So ...
I hope you have a backup of the catalog file before you did the synchronization, or otherwise you will have to upgrade your LR4 catalog again. Open one of those and then reconnect as in the link.
As side advice, perhaps you might want to consider using an organizing technique that does NOT require moving phtoos/folders from here to there. You might want to consider using organizing and searching via keywords and captions and other metadata, which does not require moving photos, and does not require re-linking photos, and gives you the ability to place photos in more than one "category" (keyword), rather than with folders where a photo can be in at most one "category" (folder)

Can't upgrade catalog from Elements 8 -thinks photos are on backup drive...

I've just bought LR3 (and upgraded to latest 3.2 release), and now I want to import all my photos from my Elements 5 collection (just over 10,000 photos - mostly RAW). All the photos are actually stored on a network share from my Windows Home Server machine, all accessible as \\home-server\photos\. Elements 5 has no problems with accessing them this way, and I can also access them fine from Lightroom, but I obviously want to retain all my keywording.
As there doesn't appear to be any way to upgrade a PSE5 catalog to LR3, I followed a recommendation I found on this forum (I think), and have downloaded a trial of PSE8. I have successfully upgraded a copy of the PSE5 catalog to PSE8 format, and then view them all in PSE8, so step one is a success. When I launched LR3, it then gave me a new option to upgrade an Elements catalog - this was a step forward. So, I took the option to upgrade the PSE8 catalog to LR, but after attempting it I see a window that says:
"Lightroom has successfully upgraded one Photoshop Elements catalog photo, but was unable to upgrade 10729 additional photos because the photos were moved to inaccessible Photoshop Elements backup drives. If you wish to manage the Photoshop Elements backup photos in Lightroom, please use Lightroom to import images from the following Photoshop Elements backup discs."
The photos are most definitely not on "backup drives". I've never backed up photos from Elements (my backups are done separately from my Home Server). Lightroom can see the relevant shares, as I've imported a few photos directly onto that share from a card reader, and have also imported some photos on there in a "leave in place", but (as they are RAWs) I don't get any keywording this way.
I'd be most grateful for any suggestions, especially as I won't be able to do anything in PSE8 when my trial runs out....

Thanks for that - that certainly agrees with my findings so far.
Do I take it you've had this confirmed by someone from Adobe then? Is it an intended limitation, or just an acknowledged bug?
I really hope it isn't an intended limitation, as it would mean that this high cost professional-targeted app (LR3) is not capable of something that the consumer level one (PSE8) does with ease. Surely it isn't that unusual to store your photos on a network drive.....
If this isn't likely to be fixed soon I guess I'll have to :
Backup (network drive based) photos and catalog
Use PSE8 to move the whole directory tree to internal hard drive
Upgrade PSE8 catalog in LR3
Use LR3 to move the whole directory tree back to the network drive
Not ideal, but it should get the job done...
Yes, confirmed by Adobe. It's a design limitation *of the PSE upgrader*. You can use LR3 to store images on a network drive, you just can't store the catalog there. I don't expect this to be fixed soon, so I'd go with the workaround if I were you.
I'm not storing my catalog on the network drive though, just my photos. Even with the catalog on an internal drive, LR3 still fails to upgrade any photos that are on a network drive.
I have though now spoken to a helpdesk chap at Adobe, and he has confirmed that Lightroom is not able to upgrade photos on a network drive. Seems like a really poor show to me, but I don't suppose I can do much about it...

Error: Unable to Update Catalog while upgrading catalog from lr4 to lr5

I just recently installed Lightroom 5 from my new Creative Cloud account. While accessing for the first time, it asks me to upgrade the lr4 catalog to lr5. Everytime I run the process, I eceive the following message below.
I tried optimizing the lr4 catalog, but that diddn't work. I saw another post saying to try upgrading the lr4 backup catalog, but that didn't work also.
Any suggestions? Please help since I a newer user to Lightroom.
Thanks,

Referenced XML,class files when trying to launch a extended page from JDev.

Hi,
I have identified the objects that I need in order to extend a R12 standard OAF page. I have also coded for the relevant extension. Now when i try to test it from JDEV itself, i get all these class not found errors for various referenced objects (eg in shared regions) from various subdirectories under $JAVA_TOP/oracle/apps on the application server. To overcome this i brought over the objects from $JAVA_TOP/oracle/apps into a local directory on my machine and in JDev i created a library giving that directory as the source path and then in my project added that library. BUT it is still giving the same errors....
how do i overcome these errors ?
thank you.

Hi,
What you are trying to do is correct, except few points,
You mentioned +"$JAVA_TOP/oracle/apps into a local directory"+
but can you put them in your myclasses oracle/apps directory.
And what is the exact error you are getting.
Btw, you can refer the below links about how to setup the Jdev to prepare for customizations,

How do I create a new library in LR5 with photos from LR3 and older computer?

I want to take photos I originally imported with LR3 on an older computer and creat a new library in LR5 on my new computer. I want to throw out all old metadata, folder names and keywords and start from scratch. How would I go about this. My photo library is on an external drive. Thanks.

I guess I hadn't thought about the fact I'd lose my edits. I have just a little experience with LR. I've realized that I did not organize and cateorize my photos in a useful way when I first created the library and want to start over. Perhaps I should just plug my photo drive into my new computer and go through photo by photo resorting them and reentering keywords and folder names. If you have any suggestions on how to best to this, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Updating from LR3 to LR5 and future switch from PC to MAC.

Hi, I currently have LR3 and am going to buy a new student version of LR5 (so not an upgrade). Is there anything I should know about transferring over my catalogs? When is it safe to delete the LR3 version so I don't lose any catalogs from LR3?
Also, I currently use a PC but in the future, I want to switch to a MAC. It's my understanding that if I purchase LR5 now, I can download to 2 computers. Do these downloads expire? If I download now to my PC now, can I then use the 2nd download for a MAC in say, a year?

As far as transferring catalogs goes, your best bet for getting answers is probably to ask in the Lightroom forum (http://forums.adobe.com/community/lightroom). Folks there are more like to have recent hands on knowledge of catalog matters.
The downloads do not expire though they might not always be readily available from the Adobe site (there is an alternative site). Currently, however, Lightroom is one of the few applications which Adobe does retain links to download older versions.
You can download to any number of machines, but you are only allowed to have the software activated on two machines. You can deactivate and activate as you need to, so if in a year you want to, you can install and activate on another machine.

Hi,
if your using oracle db please make sure your db settings and tnsnames.oRA settings
also try you please try below troubleshooting steps:
1) please check latest error message and find the root cause,
presentation catalog log path:
obiee installed Drive:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\diagnostics\logs\OracleBIPresentationServicesComponent\coreapplication_obips1\sawlog0.txt file
also check it nqserver.log file
oracle bi server log path ref:
obiee installed Drive:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\diagnostics\logs\OracleBIServerComponent\coreapplication_obis1\nqserver.log
2)can you try to login RPD,EM and console by using your weblogic a/c then try to login with some other user.
if its not working then try to delete that users from catlog and check it Check OPMN services are running state.
e.x:
C:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\bin>opmnctl startall
opmnctl startall: starting opmn and all managed processes...
C:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\bin>opmnctl status
Processes in Instance: instance1

coreapplication_obips1 | OracleBIPresentat~ | 5684 | Alive
coreapplication_obis1 | OracleBIServerCom~ | 5232 | Alive
3) Refresh GUIDs and Restart WebLogic and OPMN Services then try it again...still if your getting same issues then try to
check DB(try to login and confirm) and check it RPD --> physical layer connection pool setting and try to
view physical data.
also paste it your latest error log message (nqserver.log and sawlog01.log message) here

Why do I get the 'PowerPC code' error when trying to launch an Intel-based app from a CD?

When trying to launch a Flash-based app from a CD on my Mac Book Pro, I get the "PowerPC apps are no longer supported" error. Yet the app is not built with PowerPC code.
This also happened with Microsoft Office programs soon after I upgraded to OSX Lion, but someone was able to solve that for me.

It's just a free disc from a photo magazine, but the app runs fine on a Mac Pro running 10.7.3. Could it be hardware related?
I have actually asked this on behalf of a reader (I work for the company that makes the magazine) who is experiencing this problem, I just can't find any reason why the error would display in these circumstances. I apologise if this is against the community's usual practise - I just want to sort this guy out!
The app on the disc is compiled using MDM Zinc, but like I said it runs a-OK on Lion everywhere else.
Any help would be gratefully received and appreciated!

I just upgraded from LR3.3 to LR5 and can't print now....

I just upgraded from LR3.3 to LR5 and now when printing on my Epson 2880 the image is printing only a portion of my image - not placing it properly on the page as it appears in the print preview. I have checked with Epson and they confirm all my page size specs and print preferences are correct - Epson says it's a software glitch. The image looks right on the screen in the print preview - yet places the image in a corner of the page when printing, cutting off half of it. Tried it both on 8.5x11 and on 13x19 with two images and had the same problem. I need this fixed ASAP thanks @Adobe @JaneSzaboPhoto

Yes, I have the paper set up properly as 13" x 19" (or 8.5 x 11 when trying more than one size) and even reviewed this over the phone with Epson. All setting are correct and it looks right on the print preview - but shifts the image to the top left of the page and shrinks the image and cuts off the top of the image.....no matter what paper size.

Is it possible any longer to upgrade from LR3 to LR5 without subscribing to Creative Cloud?

Is it possible any longer to upgrade from LR3.5 to LR5 without subscribing to Creative Cloud? I am not interested in a CC sub at this time.

You can click Buy on this page to purchase LR5 without subscribing:

First, though, download and install LR 5.6 from the Adobe Updates page and make sure LR5 will run on your computer:
