Lightroom catalog stops lightroom loading - new user help

Hi,
New user to lightroom 3 - created a few catalogs - closed the programme and now all i get is error messages and LR3 will not load. Tried repair - no difference. Tried uninstall and reinstall from cd 3.2 and same error message. Tried deleting all catelog folders and still no sucess - sigh.
Any help appreciated - erroe messages below:
Crashes with message - lightroom - opening catalog: PB285771.orf.lrcat and then the error message , sorry LR is expereincing probs and needs to close and provides the report function, which begins with:
AppName: lightroom.exe AppVer: 3.2.0.10 ModName: msvcr100.dll ModVer: 10.0.30319.1 Offset: 0008d635
If there was someway of forcing the app to load without trying to open the referenced catelopg above it might work, unless you experts know differently?? (hopefully)
Thank you in advance.
Alan

Hi Alan,
I think you are mislead by the semantic of "catalog". Read "database" instead - Adobe marketing may have just voted for a non-tekkie name.... source of a lot of issues...
Large catalogs=databases create problems on old hardware of low specs. If you have a fairly contemporary hardware set-up with 2 GB of RAM I would definitely try with 1 catalog-database only, until you might really run into problems.
It is easy to split catalogs should the need arise, which I second Pete Marshall to doubt.
Whenever you want to see two images together, to compare them, to assign the same keyword to find them together again etc. they need to be in the same database.
Only if you should have worlds totally split apart you could consider multiple catalogs.
There are ways to get pieces across from one to the other(s), but that requires conscious acts best carefully planned.
Your initial post does not strike me as if that should suit your personality?
In order to gain quick and good understanding of the basic principles I'd suggest you invest 15 British Pounds in Victoria Bampton's "The missing FAQs" online http://www.lightroomqueen.com/lrqebook3.php
or read at least http://www.lightroomqueen.com/blog/2009/03/24/lightroom-top-10-gotchas/.
I have no relationship to that lady other than her book was my primary source of my current LR knowledge and I enjoyed it very much.

Need new user help

i am trying to retrieve the length of multiple strings for a homework problem. we have to declare 5 string instance variables (string1�string5). i am wondering what the code is to retrieve any one of the five lengths. the way my code is now i can only get one.
public int returnlength() {
int charCount1=string1.length();
return charCount1;
i know i am missing something very easy here. thanks for the beginner help. i have been looking at this for over 3 hours now. i tried using parameters but i keep messing up the code.

Here's what sounds like a start, though it seems you already did something like this and shot it down as not complying with the requirements:
public class Homework
public int length(String s)
    return s.length();
// create other methods for dealing with equals(), etc
public static void main(String[] args)
    // declare 5 strings:
    String str1, str2, str3, str4, str5;
    // initialize them somehow - the snippet from your assignment does not specify how
    // get the length of each
    Homework hw = new Homework();
    int len = hw.length(str1);
    // what are you supposed to do with the result?
    len = hw.length(str2); // invoked again on a different string
    len = hw.length(str3); // etcetera
}

Normally repartitioning a drive means erasing everything that's on the drive and starting fresh. To do it, you need the OS disks, either the retail Tiger DVD or the Software Restore discs that came with the computer.
With the OS disc in the drive restart the computer holding the C key. (You can also select the OS disc in the Startup Disc pane of System Preferences before restarting.
When the installer comes up, select the Language but then, instead of continuing with the installer, open Disk Utility (it's under one of the choices on the menu bar)
From there, you can go about repartitioning the drive. Since this will effectively clear the drive completely, you will of course need to back up everything before, and reinstall the OS and everything else after repartioning.
Unless you have a really good reason to have 2 or more partitions, you're better off leaving it as a whole.

New User Help Needed Formatting External HD in MS-DOS for PC file migration

I have files on my PC and planned on putting them on a new external HD to transfer to the iMac.
I have a new MiniStack V3 external HD with USB and Firewire connections. It comes formatted for the Mac.
I want to format the HD on the iMac to MS-DOS so I can connect it to my PC; pull off my files; and reconnect to the Mac; pull over the files; and then reformat the external HD for the Mac.
Going into the disk utility I gathered the Erase tab is how you reformat. Only Mac OS choices are available for the format type. *How do you format the disc for Mac OS on the Mac???*

minimejdh,
First, select the drive (not the named volume that will appear indented underneath), then switch to the Partition pane. Click the "Options..." button and choose the "GUID Partition Scheme," then partition the drive with a single partition.
Now you can select the named volume, switch to the "Erase" pane, and choose MS-DOS.
That said, you might want to consider using your PC to format the drive using the NTFS format. FAT-32 (the MS-DOS format) has a 4 GB file size limitation, and it is possible that some of the files you wish to transfer exceed this limit (I'm sure you would know better than we). Your iMac will have no trouble accessing the drive and NTFS format, but it will be as read-only. Since you will be formatting it again with the Mac, using HFS+ (Mac OS Extended), you won't need write access to the drive.

Blackberry Pink Pearl 8130 Synchronizing Trouble with Outlook Calendar

Recently I have attempted to synchoronize my phone and calendar at work (don't have it set up at home). During the synchronizing progress, as it is reading Outlook Calendar, I receive an error message "Operation Terminated Unexpectedly" when it reaches a certain record number. I have restarted my computer, attempted through the desktop manager to configure the synchronization but also get an error message there. Any suggestions?

Unfortunately, I have again tried to sync my phone and calendar, and again it is unsuccessful. I changed the folder option as I did before from the Microsoft default (which resulted in the original error message: Operation Terminated Unexpectedly" when it came to a certain record). I also changed the folder, restarted my computer, and tried again to sync but without success. I am confused by all the information out there and can't make heads or tails of it all. Can anyone help me figure this out?

NEW USER - - HELP WITH SET UP PLEAS

Hey. I'm trying to connect a WRT54GS wireless router to my computer. The modem that I'm using is connected to another computer. So i'm a little confused on how to connect them all. Please help!

THIS SHOULD BE YOUR SETUP.
MODEM------ROUTER-----COMPUTER
1. Make sure that you can access the internet when the computer is directly connected to the modem
2. Make sure that you are using an ethernet cable when the computer is connected to the modem. If you are using a USB cable - you need to contact your ISP to ask them to change the settings on the modem to use the ethernet cable.
3. If you already verified that you can access the internet when directly connected to the modem using an ethernet cable, then run the cd that came with the router. It will provide you step by step instructions on how to connect the router.

New user needs help with syncing

I have a new Curve. I use Comcast mail (POP3). I have installed Desktop Manager on my PC. I am not using an Enterprise server, nor an Exchange server. I would like to be able to receive, read, and delete using either device and have any changes reflected in the other.
From what I've read, it appears that you can only do that if you're using an Enterprise server or if you have an Exchange server and you install Redirector. Is that true? Or can my set up work?

POP3 email does not require a BES connection.
However you do need to make sure you are paying the service fee to the carrier for a BIS data plan.

Hello, I am a brand new user of the Curve Blackberry. I can't figure out how to add contacts via the Blackberry Desktop software. It would be too difficult to type in all my contacts on the Blackberry itself, I want to use my desktop computer to do this. Do I need to purchase additional software to be able to do this?

Step By Step Instructions !!!! HELP NEW USER!

Step by step tutorial on how to create a project from A to Z. I am a new user, and i am tired of all the tutorials NI provides, they all talk about creating some bullshit waveform or making some easy calculator vi. They never talk about the real stuff, example, how to start a project, create your vi, compiling or putting together all the vi's, compile everything together and than creating an EXE. Holly shit that's all i am asking for is an idiots guide is it that hard for NI to make ! Can anyone out there direct to something to figure this out maybe a book, article, web page something!!! And no thank you i don't need some sales guy calling me trying to sell NIN bullshit training classes, i have been to them and all the instructor could talk about is creating a ridicolous sine wave genarator (WoW)

I am sure NI would be very happy to hear about any issues with the LabVIEW help that could be confusing to new users.
Here's a link to the LabVIEW help on organizing an managing projects:
http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361D-01/TOC16.htm
Have you read it and do you still have problems? What was not clear?

You should also be aware that you cannot buit an application using LabVIEW base or full.
You need LabVIEW professional or you need to purchase the application builder.
Genci wrote:
...tired .. bullshit ... Holly shit ...idiots ...bullshit ..ridicolous ...
These are all non-techical terms and not very descriptive in the context of LabVIEW. Could you be a bit more specific on what kind of problems you encountered?
It would also be important to know your programming background? Are you experienced in any other programming environment? Is labVIEW your first attempt at programming? Are you familiar with general programming terms? Are you trying to program for personal enjoyment, for school, or as part of a job. If your employer forces you to switch to LabVIEW, maybe he could send you to some NI classes.
What is your LabVIEW version?
As anything, there is always an initial hurdle that needs to be overcome before becoming familiar in a new environment. Fortunately, this threshold is very low in the case of LabVIEW and you should be up and running after a couple of hours. Mastery takes a bit longer, of course.
Your best bet is to ask a more specific question here in the forum whenever you get stuck. Good luck and enjoy the ride.

MF Crashes on startup, but works in safe-mode and for a few minutes after making a new user, can anyone help?

After troubleshooting for a few hours, I still cannot find a proper solution. Effectively, I learned that if I create a new profile user, with this command in windows Run: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -p , I can open the user profile menu manually, and create/delete a new/not-new user, and upon creating and using a new one, it works fine. For a couple of times opening the browser, anyway, in which it results in the same problem as before. I took a list and compared the old files to a brand new users files, and did find some differences. Take these into effect,
The compatability and extensions .ini files were differed by 3 kb , with a new user being 1, and the old user being 4.
The Local Store .rdf file differed from 2 for a new user, to 4 for an old user.
The Mime Types .rdf file differed from 3 for a new user to 4 for an old user.
Plugin Reg(istry?) .dat differed from 17 new to 20 old.
Search.json differed from 13 new to 16 old.
Search Metadata.json differed from 1 new to 4 old.
URL Classifier Key 3.txt differed from 1 new to 4 old.
Web App Store.sqlite differed from 96 new to 128 old.
(All units are KB)
Seeing as a few articles relating to the problem are "no longer maintained" and the solutions work only temporarily, I came here hoping to fix this little issue. Thank you, and good luck in advance.

Note; the first crash ID is for the new user that crashed, the last is for an old user.

I see.. I have heard rumors of this, but it did not occur to me that this would literally crash upon startup. Thank you for the help, Edmeister. Will check as "solved it" if it works. Thanks again!

HT201232 my sister gave me her old iphone 5 that was bought in UK, i already restored it and insert a new sim card to set it up new but i couldn't activate it. Can you help me? i'm from Philippines and just a new user for iPhone.

iPhone 5

iOS8.3
i'm a new user on iPhone. My sister gave me her old iPhone that she bought in UK, she she it here in the Philippines and i'm having problems because i can't use it. i already restored it to set it up new but i couldn't still activate it. It says, " Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server cannot be reached." and "The SIM card that you currently have installed in this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information."
what should i do for me to be able to use it?
please help!
Thank you very much!

It is locked to your sisters carrier.
She would have to ask her carrier if they unlock iPhones and if she qualifies for this service.
