Blocking bug with 10.8.3+Adobe Lightroom+Canon iPF5000 (but workaround found)

Hi all,
since I have updated my MacBook Pro (early 2011 model) with 10.8.3, I have a blocking bug with Adobe Lightroom (either 4.3 or 4.4) for launching prints on my Canon iPF5000 (firmware 1.33, either MacOS driver 2.67 or 3.06, connection through USB).
When I was under 10.8.2 with the Canon's driver 3.06, everything works fine.
Basically, after clicking Print a Copy or Print... in Lightroom, the file spooled to the driver stays in MacOS printer queue. Within the printer queue window, the printer is in pause mode, and each time I try to resume the printing processing, the driver put it on hold immediately. When I look into the history on the Console, the driver complains about an unknown error... The data stay within the driver, as my Canon iPF5000 "Data" led indicator stays unlit.
My print settings are 600dpi or 300dpi, print sharpening Standard/Glossy, 16 bit output. And Color managed by printer (because I let the Canon driver managing my B&W prints).
Strangely enough, when I launch a print from Preview application, the drivers does its job and sends it successfully to my Canon iPF5000...
As this was driving me crazy, I have tried a clean install of MacOS 10.8.3 (as 10.8.2 is no more available from Apple servers...). No success, same blocking issue.
Eventually, I've found the workaround: using the imagePROGRAF Advanced Preview. You have to click on "Print..." in Lightroom in order to see the driver settings window, and then check the "Preview before printing" option in the main tab of the driver settings. Then I can preview my Lightroom printing work and then launch successfully my printing.
Simple workaround, but very strange bug...
For me, the root cause could be multiple and not very obvious.
Is it Mac OS 10.8.3 ? But why can I make prints from Preview application for instance, and not from LR ?
Is it the Canon driver ? But this lead me to the same question.
Is it Lightroom ? Does it send corrupted data that make the driver crazy but not the imagePROGRAF Advanced Preview ?
So, if any user of Canon iPF5000 + Mac OS 10.8 + Lightroom is around, please share your experience.
And if any Apple, Adobe or Canon engineer read this, please try to fix this.
Happy printing,
Amaury

It's different how applications write print data. If you use Advanced Preview from the driver then it calculates already the output which afterwards is only sent to the printer.
Have you once tried to print with fast graphic process switched off (option of advanced settings)?
Hope it helps

  • Issue with past purchase of Adobe Lightroom

    I purchased Adobe Lightroom 4 on 10/31/12 from the Apple Mac App Store.  I have been using the software alongside Adobe Photoshop CS6 for the past two years.  My MacBook needs to be set back to its original factory settings and I wasn't sure how to get the two Adobe programs back onto the computer once I reset it.  I contacted Adobe and they only see that I have purchased Photoshop CS6 with my member name.  I purchased Photoshop CS6 and downloaded it from Adobe's website.  I told them that I purchased Lightroom and downloaded it from Apple's Mac App store.  I even went back into my email history and found the iTunes receipt that shows the purchase with the order number from Apple.  I figure that I may not have registered the software and that may be why my member account with Adobe doesn't show I purchased Lightroom?  I cannot find the serial number for Lightroom anywhere in email or in the software itself.  It seems that Apple doesn't sell Adobe Lightroom from the App Store anymore like they once did, so to be able to download it again from Apple seems out of the question.

    If Lightroom is no longer available from the Mac App Store (MAS), that was an Adobe decision to longer sell it through that distribution stream. MAS versions of apps have no serial numbers, that is an Apple requirement for a developer to sell through the MAS.
    If you have a backup of your current Mac installation, you should be able to restore the MAS version of Lightroom from the backup. If not, you will need to purchase it from whomever Adobe now sells it through.

  • Memory leak: critical (blocker) bug with unloading SWF with Vector. T

    Here's the original bugreport https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3071138
    dated december 2011 (add actually appeared even earlier). Despaired of getting any Adobe's team attention I even submitted it again today (as of new releases of FP 11.3 and AIR 3.3 betas).
    Chris Campbell, seems like u're active on this forums. Can you give any feedback?

    This bug has definitely been around a while.  The good news is that it's currently slated "Open / To Fix" for our AIR 3.3 release which is currently up on labs.adobe.com  (our internal number is 3072792).  We've been able to reproduce the problem and our development team is actively investigating.
    The best way to make sure this gets continued focus is to recommend to everyone you know who is affected by this bug to take a minute and cast their vote on the public bug.

  • I can no longer use the address bar to change websites. I can block text with the mouse and input a new URL but when I hit the enter key or left click on the right arrow it has no effect and the page does not change.

    Also Ctrl+Enter no longer adds www+.com to words entered in the address bar. I can use bookmarks to change to other web sites or my password manager. Re-booting my laptop makes no difference. Please help.

    Hey CaptRobyn,
    Have you tried starting Firefox in Safe Mode? Hold down "shift" while Firefox is starting up. It might be related to an extension. Then you should read [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]].

  • Adobe Reader XI installed but "Not Found"

    I have Adobe Reader XI installed and apparently running normally. Unfortunately the UK's Parcelforce web-site says it can't find it.
    I get the message " Adobe Acrobat NOT found. You must have Adobe Reader (5 or better) with the browser plugin properly working"
    Can anyone help me please? How can I tell if "the browser plugin is properly working" ?

    In IE11 use Tools | Manage Add-ons, then show All Add-ons.  Do you see the Adobe PDF Reader add-on, and is it enabled?

  • Lightroom 6 Export Fail - Workaround Found

    Hello,
    I have had LR6 failing to export certain files over and over again even though the RAW files were not corrupted.
    This happened all the time with Adobe Bridge. I found that it only fails the export with Adobe Bridge opened to the same folder that the files are exported to.
    As a workaround, I tried clicking on another folder in Bridge. It worked, the files are exporting as usual.
    Hope this helps someone. It was driving me crazy for a while.
    Wes

    Hi,
    This problem only happens in LR6. I had the issue for days.
    I happen to have Adobe Bridge opened to the same folder that LR6 was exporting to. When I clicked on a different folder, the problem disappeared. It seems to be some sort of a file lock issue.
    best

  • I just created an AIP version of Adobe 11.0.10, applied our settings with the .mst through Adobe Customization Wizard.Online Services and Features Issues

    I just created an AIP version of Adobe 11.0.10, applied our settings with the .mst through Adobe Customization Wizard. But something is blocking it from opening the software, it just flickers the windows explorer, if I uncheck all the settings for the Online Services and Features it lets me open it but i can't skip the registration screen. Has something changed with this version of 11.0.10?

    Having the same problem here. Even if not creating an AIP, and instead doing a standard install of AcroPro.msi and patching with 11.0.10's msp, it'll result in a registration loop that can't be skipped.
    Applying an Adobe ID allows for getting through the screen, but obviously, in an enterprise environment, that's not ideal.
    This issue was something that I experienced with 11.0.07, and it went away with 11.0.08 and 11.0.09, but seems to have returned with 11.0.10.
    Previously, I was able to get around the issue by clearing out some files from the Common Files\Adobe directory, particularly Adobe PCD and SLCache, as well as including the Adobe regids stored in ProgramData,but that fix no longer works with this latest version.
    If REGISTRATION_SUPPRESS is set to YES, the result is Acrobat closing and opening in a loop, since it can't get through the registration screen.
    I'm currently investigating for a registry key that might possibly applied to circumvent this issue, but I haven't found one yet.
    For Adobe Acrobat 8, it used to be stored in the following two places, per Prompted to register repeatedly | Acrobat 8 | Windows
         32-bit Windows: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\8.0\AdobeViewer
         64-bit Windows: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\8.0\AdobeViewer
    However, the registry structure seems to have changed since then.

  • Where do I go to report a BUG in Adobe Lightroom

    I have installed a trial version of Adobe Lightroom and it accessed a networked drive from a shortcut on my desktop and over 200 images where removed. Typically a program will ignore shortcuts and limit their seach or actions to the named folder only. I need to report this bug and find out how I can restore the files to their source folders.
    Can anyone point me to the right dept.
    I spoke to someone on chat this morning and their 'helpful' reply was they only offer support 'BEFORE' you download the product. Once you download the product and you actually have some questions they will not assist you. Go figure!! Not great service for companies evalutating Adobes suite.

    Are you saying you did a Move import with Subfolders on and/or did a Folder-drag movie in LR Library, and in either case started in or above a folder with a shortcut and the Subfolders option traversed the shortcut to an unexpected location, or something else?
    CS can help you download a product and can help install a product, but aren’t here to train you how to use the product.

  • Using Adobe Lightroom with OSX Photos

    I love the iCloud integration of the new Photos app, it's really great having all my photos available on my phone.
    I also love the editing capabilities of Adobe Lightroom.
    Has anyone figured out a way of using Photos for the iCloud integration and Lightroom for the editing and post processing?

    Terence Devlin wrote:
    See what I mean:
    there is no way to sensibly use the two apps together,
    Yes, from the Photos + Lightroom together perpsective.
    But taking it back to the root, what is the best way to have the same benefits offered by photos (tight integration between iOS and LR)? If Adobe weren't so stingy with their cloud storage, it would be a lot simpler answer because you'd just stick the their storage and product suite.
    How can someone who takes a fair # of photos on iOS get those seamlessly to LR and conversely have access to their photo catalogues on iOS when they want to show them? I think the answer may be CC Photography + Smugmug but there are pitfalls to the smugmug iOS client (does not background sync,  nowhere near as good as Photos, does not integrate with other apps where you may want to use the photos collection).

  • I am trying to install a registered copy of Photoshop Lightroom that I never installed on my Apple iMac with software version 10.10.  I get the message "Adobe Lightroom 1.  Cannot be installed on this disk because a newer version of this software already

    I am trying to install a registered copy of Photoshop Lightroom that I never installed on my Apple iMac with software version 10.10.
    I get the message “Adobe Lightroom 1.  Cannot be installed on this disk because a newer version of this software already exists on this disk”
    If it is here – I cannot find it anywhere, and I don’t believe that I ever installed it.
    I have ordered the upgrade to Lightroom 5.0 and figured that I should install Lightroom 1.0 first.
    How can I solve this problem

    Actually when LR 5 starts for the first time after it is installed it will have a dialog to Buy, Try or Enter a serial number. You select Enter a serial number and enter the LR 5 serial number first and then because it is an upgrade serial number it will ask for the serial number of a Previous version. You then enter the LR 1 serial number.

  • Lightroom bugs with Windows Vista

    I'm having difficulties with one of the file navigation controls in LR running under Windows Vista. The control that pops up with the import (choose files) function works fine, but the control that pops up with the add folder or create new library function misbehaves and causes LR to hang.
    I've logged a ticket with Adobe, tried all the standard workarounds (run as administrator, re-create preferences etc.), but to no avail. I think it is a bug.
    Has anyone experienced this? Any solutions out there?

    What I've seen is that if you try to import from a card reader using the LR downloader, you get a list of files on the card and a message saying that they could not be imported. This also apparently damages the LR database because you cannot import even from a folder on the computer until you delete the database and create a new one. It happens in XP compatibility mode for me too. Otherwise, I have had no troubles using LR on my Vista machine. I can import from a card using another program's downloader and then import the folder into LR for editing.

  • Using iPhoto together with Adobe Lightroom

    I use Adobe Lightroom for my image organizing/tagging needs, since it's way more powerful than iPhoto in this area. I would however like to use iPhoto for my daily image browsing, syncing with my iPhone and for ordering prints/books ++. The way I do this now, is I let iPhoto scan the folder where I have my images. After a while when it gets outdated, I delete the database and rescan in iPhoto. Kinda cumbersome...
    So:
    1. Is there a way I can make iPhoto rescan my image folder? Maybe some script or something that can do it for me?
    2. When I rate images in LR, the ratings are stored in the IPTC Urgency field. When I import to iPhoto it doesn't import this as rating. Any way I can convert IPTC Urgency to iPhoto rating?
    3. Would Aperture be a better choice for working together with iPhoto, or would it be just as cumbersome?

    In reverse order:
    3. Would Aperture be a better choice for working together with iPhoto, or would it be just as cumbersome?
    It’s a lot better. You can grab your previews from Aperture right into iPhoto using a Media Browser, but given that Aperture will do all those things - books, syncing with iPhone etc - you’ll probably need to do it less. Like iPhoto, Aperture is integrated throughout the OS, in every Open... Dialogue, through Media Browsers to integrate with other apps and so on. The primary advantage of using Aperture is that +at least the two apps know each other exist+.
    2. When I rate images in LR, the ratings are stored in the IPTC Urgency field. When I import to iPhoto it doesn't import this as rating. Any way I can convert IPTC Urgency to iPhoto rating
    I don’t think so. There is no real way to move ratings between any apps that I know of. This area of metadata is still in its infancy.
    1. Is there a way I can make iPhoto rescan my image folder? Maybe some script or something that can do it for me?
    No. However there are apps out there that can watch that folder for you and execute specific actions on events occurring. You may be able to cook up an Automator action or Folder Action script that will import to iPhoto when a file is added to the Folder. Or use an app like Hazel to do it for you.
    Update: I’m not sure what this Lightroom plug-in brings to the party, but it may help.
