Cropping LR4 occasional strange behavior experienced by others?

The LR4 cropping process has become unstable during use on several occasions.  The LR4 cropping tool seems to get confused.
During the cropping process, unwanted changes to position and leveling of the cropped area happen upon exiting.  The cropped image one saw immediately before exiting is not what one sees afterwards. The crop has changed on its own.  During the episode, the response to the mouse is not normal.  One may drag the corner only to have it spring back upon release of the button.
Exiting LR4 and reentering does not cure the behavior.  One must open image in Develop module,  restore crop defaults, exit, and reenter batch tool to restore normal behavior.  I am not certain as to the exact order of these steps but essentially normalcy was restored during their implementation.
I have notice that this abnormal behavior seems more likely to occur during sessions when I am making use of the "Previous" button.
As far as I know, the behavior is not reproducible.  It occurs during some of those late night sessions and I have not documented it well but will do so if we don’t have a cure by next time it occurs.

Replacing the Lr preference file may help. The preference file can go "funny" and then causes all kinds of strange behavior of Lr.
Replacing the preference file takes about 10 minutes, and you don`t need to re-install Lr.
BTW: Un-installing and re-installing Lr does not replace the preference file.
See here for instructions o  how to replace the preference file: http://lightroomers.com/replacing-the-lightroom-preference-file/745/

  • Disk space vanishing, other strange behavior

    In the last two days TechTool has been announcing that my free disk space is getting low. Started at 15%, but it keeps dropping down to 1%. I've deleted about 100GB of data in the last two days, but it isn't helping.
    Checked my log files which aren't ridculously big. None of my processes are using a fraction of the 160GB+ it shows as being allocated to VM. Some strange log entries in console related to MacHelper, but I don't think I ever installed it. Ran an uninstaller just in case.
    Prior to this happening some other odd things have been happening for a week or so:
    External drives aren't dismounting correctly. Click eject and the name remains grayed out and if I unplug the drive I get chided for removing a drive.
    System hangs and requires forced restart. Hangs during restart on the desktop image.
    Had some trouble with an external e-sata drive dismounting all the time using the card slot adaptor for e-Sata. Card would get extremely hot. Used FW800 but had strange behavior with 5 additional drives reminiscent of SCSI. Once I changed the cables around it stopped doing this.

    You may not have gotten all of MacKeeper. From an earlier post of mine:
    I'd search for it using EasyFind. Enter "MacKeeper" and "Zeobit." Set EF to scan all files and folders, invisible, case insensitive, package contents. Search using boolean and phrase. It will probably do a more thorough job than Spotlight. If you can't "Destroy" from EF, use Reveal in Finder to trash and authenticate from there.
    It is also known to install a Windows emulator called "wine;" search for that.
    Also, look in the Keychain for anything MacKeeper or zeobit related, and for its cookies in your browser. When finished, empty the Trash and restart.

    Somehow, as BDAqua suggested, I'm still suspecting it's the logs filling up with a constantly repeating message. Are there any other Users? Can you log in to those and see what's going on with those logs?
    Permissons repair has nothing to do with this.

  • My ipad2 is getting lazy with the wifi. On any router it doesn't get the signal by itself, unless I'm so close that the pad and the antenna are touching. Other solution, to turn off and on again the wifi button on the iPad. This strange behavior is new...

    My ipad2 is getting lazy with the wifi. On any router it doesn't get the signal by itself, unless I'm so close that the pad and the antenna are touching. Other solution, to turn off and on again the wifi button on the iPad. This strange behavior is new, before my iPad was blazing fast at getting any known wifi connection. Sme help please ??

    it sure sounds like the battery is defect

  • Strange behavior after using NIK plug-ins

    Every once in a while I encounter this strange behavior of Aperture. I first process the NEF's in Aperture (white balance, Exposure, Enhance... and, when needed, Cropping) and then I fine tune the image with the NIK plug-ins; when needed DfIne 2.0, Viveza, Color Efex Pro 3.0 and Sharpener Pro 3.0 Output Sharpener.
    If I look at the processed picture then, I get a perfect presentation of the photo;
    !http://users.skynet.be/fc419085/Aperture-1.jpg!
    But when I press Z to zoom into a 100% preview I get this;
    !http://users.skynet.be/fc419085/Aperture-2.jpg!
    When I select the Loup in the normal view mode I get this;
    !http://users.skynet.be/fc419085/Aperture-3.jpg!
    This doesn't happen with all my pictures, yesterday I processed a series of 8 pictures an 6 of them showed this behavior the other two acted normal and I can't see what I did differently whit these last two.
    When I export the strangely behaving photo's to a Tiff or a Jpeg, I get perfectly normal pictures.
    The original NEF behaves normal. I have seen this behavior with NEF's from a Nikon D200, D2x and a D300. I have Aperture 2.1.2 running on a 2.33 GHz Intel Core Duo MacBook Pro running Mac OS X 10.5.6
    Does anybody know what's happening and if so, how to solve this problem?
    Cheers,
    Ivan

    I did some testing and what I found is too weird to be true.
    First this mashed up look doesn't only happen after using NIK plug-ins, it also happens when making a roundtrip to Photoshop, given that certain conditions are met.
    Give it a try yourself. Crop an image to an uneven pixelcount dimension, for example 4227 x 2797 and make a roundtrip to Photoshop. Then have a 100% view look at the new image in Aperture. You'll have a mashed up view, at least I do.
    Now crop the same original image to an even pixelcount dimension, for example 4228 x 2798 and make an roundtrip to Photoshop once more. When you have a 100% view of the new image now, you'll see a perfectly normal photo.
    Do you think Aperture developers are reading this forum?

  • Strange behavior in HTMLDB

    Greetings,
    We've been running HTMLDB since 1.5 and are currently at 2.2.1.00.04, but within the last two weeks we have been seeing some very strange behavior. Form submissions or moving from one page to the next in either the Development GUI or within any application will result in either blank pages (although in most cases a reload [refresh] will bring up the page that was expected) or the following errors:
    Error Workspace 741023382320307 has no privileges to parse as schema.
    or
    Access denied by Application security check (this one will only allow us to logout, refresh doesnt work).
    or
    ORA-0000: normal, successful completion
    Error Unable to fetch authentication_scheme in application 4000. (a refresh brings the page up normally)
    We've made no major changes to hardware/operating system/software.
    We have ruled out our load balancer by accessing htmldb by FQDN and port number, and have disabled webcache. Its almost as if our session variables in memory will just suddenly disappear.
    [EDIT]
    These pages and errors are absolutely random. I could experience 20 of them in an hour or 1 in the next week. We have done extensive log checking, but can find nothing that would explain the behavior.
    [EDIT]
    Has anyone experienced these issues. We are currently running a number of applications in production and this is already starting to affect them.
    Thanks in Advance,

    Hi Earl.
    I just confirmed from one of the developers that it
    happens either way...
    Any ideas?
    cliffDid you happen to change browsers recently, like IE7 perhaps?
    I'm not really sure what's happening but this sounds like what I call 'browser confusion'. Basically, like what you mentioned, that the current session state gets dropped, either in the browser or the server. Don't know which.

  • Strange behavior in Webi : No data returned

    Hi,
    I am experiencing a strange behavior.
    I have created a condition object in universe.
    Start Date : DATE_DIM_TBL.DAY >= UPPER(to_char(to_date(@prompt('Enter start date','D',,mono,free),'dd/mm/yyyy HH24:MI:SS'),'dd-mon-yy'))
    End Date : DATE_DIM_TBL.DAY <= UPPER(to_char(to_date(@prompt('Enter end date','D',,mono,free),'dd/mm/yyyy HH24:MI:SS'),'dd-mon-yy'))
    Now when I create report to display years between 01-05-2005 and 04-05-2009. Report does not return any data.
    Where as when I execute the generated query from SQL prompt it return correct data.
    SELECT
      DATE_DIM_TBL.CALENDAR_YEAR_NAME
    FROM
      DATE_DIM_TBL
    WHERE
       ( DATE_DIM_TBL.DAY >= UPPER(to_char(to_date('01-05-2005 00:00:00','dd/mm/yyyy HH24:MI:SS'),'dd-mon-yy'))  )
       AND
       ( DATE_DIM_TBL.DAY <= UPPER(to_char(to_date('04-05-2009 00:00:00','dd/mm/yyyy HH24:MI:SS'),'dd-mon-yy'))  )
    can somebody please give any pointers about what has gone wrong in WebI.

    Yes I tried SQL*PLus on BOBJ Server machine. SQL returns correct data.
    Do you think is it some setting in WebI, As It hapopens only when I use condition object as a filter in Webi report. When I create Report filter it works fine.

  • Strange behavior of Aliases

    Ever since switching to OS 10.5, I have had a strange situation with aliases and the file to which they point. After selecting an alias, and pressing Command+R, the window will display the actual source file in its actual location, as always. Then, if I use the back-left arrow in the left side of the title bar (or Command+[ ) to return to the folder containing the alias, that folder will appear to contain the original file in addition to the alias. In reality, that file is really in its original location and it only appears to be in both places. If I move the phantom file to the desktop, the real file will disappear from its real location. Has anyone else experienced this strange behavior?

    red_menace wrote:
    I also noticed that the contextual menu item to show the original works differently than the main menu item.
    On my system, the contextual menu behaves the same way. Using the back arrow to return to the original folder shows both the file and its alias. Leaving that folder and returning removes the phantom file, as you observed.

  • Strange behavior when compiled with Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition

    I wrote a program for Berkeley DBXML 2.2.13 on Windows XP that executes a query 5 times and prints out the runtime for each execution. When I run the program using the Debug version of the libraries the queries take about the same time to execute for all 5 executions. When I run the program using the Release version of the libraries the execution time of the queries degrades significantly between each execution. One query takes 2 seconds to execute the first time and 20 to execute the last. I have tried recompiling the Release version without optimization and the strange behavior persists. I have run both the Release and Debug versions several times and gotten the same results, so I doubt it is a program running in the background that is slowing the execution.
    This behavior does not happen when I compile the program under Unbuntu using g++, so I assume it is caused by some flag set in the Release version of Visual C++. Has anyone else experienced this behavior and know what flags I should or should not set?
    Thanks for your time.

    Hi Lauren,
    We've had users experience this before, and it seems to be a bug/"feature" of the default windows heap allocator. Please see this post for a bit more explanation and a solution:

  • LivePreview strange behavior

    I experiencing some very strange behavior in a Live Preview
    swf.
    I have a component extending UIComponent containing a Timer
    with a external Live Preview swf set up using LivePreviewParent as
    the document class.
    Generally, Timer events fail to dispatch. Except... when I
    first open the file using the component. I see trace output
    indicating that the events are dispatching, however, the component
    is invisible. As soon as I click on the stage, the component
    appears and triggers the draw() method. But, the Timer gets
    instantiated again and events don't dispatch.
    Is there an explanation for this? Am I coding something
    incorrectly?

    Please specify what kind of error you are getting and what is command you are firing on Unix.

  • Strange behavior on my network... Has my home system been compromised?  A disgruntled employee (sysAdmin) could have full access...worried...

    If you know or suspect that a hostile intruder has either had physical access to it, or has been able to log in remotely, then there are some steps you should take to make sure that the computer is safe to use.
    First, depending on the circumstances, computer tampering may be a crime, a civil wrong, or both. If there's any chance that the matter will be the subject of legal action, then you should do nothing at all without consulting a lawyer or the police. The computer would be the principal evidence in such a case, and you don't want to contaminate that evidence.
    Running any kind of "anti-virus" software is pointless. If I broke into a system and wanted to leave a back door, I could do it in a way that would be undetectable by those means—and I don't pretend to any special skill as a hacker. You have to assume that any intruder can do the same. Commercial keylogging software—which has legitimate as well as illegitimate uses—won't be recognized as malware, because it's not malware.
    The only way you can be sure that the computer is not compromised is to erase at least the startup volume and restore it to something like the status quo ante. The easiest approach is to recover the entire system from a backup that predates the attack. Obviously, that's only practical if you know when the attack took place, and it was recent, and you have such a backup. You will lose all changes to data, such as email, that were made after the time of the snapshot. Some of those changes can be restored from a later backup.
    If you don't know when the attack happened, or if it was too long ago for a complete rollback to be feasible, then you should erase and install OS X. If you don't already have at least two complete, independent backups of all data, then you must make them first. One backup is not enough to be safe.
    When you restart after the installation, you'll be prompted to go through the initial setup process for a new computer. That’s when you transfer the data from a backup in Setup Assistant.
    Select only users in the Setup Assistant dialog—not Applications, Other files and folders, or Computer & Network Settings. Don't transfer the Guest account, if it was enabled.
    Reinstall third-party software from original media or fresh downloads—not from a backup, which may be contaminated.
    Unless you were the target of an improbably sophisticated attack, this procedure will leave you with a clean system. If you have reason to think that you were the target of a sophisticated attack, then you need expert help.
    That being done, change all Internet passwords and check all financial accounts for unauthorized transactions. Do this  after the system has been secured, not before.

  • IMac mouse problems / strange behavior (impossible to configure mouse preferences)

    I work in a design and communication school, the used hardware is iMac (Intel) whit Lion (OS X 10.7), we have several rooms equipped with these Macs where students light up their data on the server.
    Today, 3 of these Macs had problems with the mouse, including mine.
    Basically the clicks don´t work correctly. We cant close windows, open folders or change some options by clicking, but we can open softwares, scroll.
    In safari if i search something, when I try to click the link i want, safari opens a new tab instead the one i am at, and has other strange behaviors. So I´ve tried to change the mouse settings, and when i make a change, for example: change the scroll button to "buttun 3" the mouse automatically assumes all buttons to dashboard, but not at the configurations window because it says that scrool button still "button 3",  when i use the click or the scroll or any button it just slid me to dashboard or a setting that has nothing to do with my option.
    This is really causing a big problem since we are a school.. I already tried to change the mouse, clean, try another usb ports, search for update or restart but it still doing the same.
    I think it have something to do with an update.. but not sure.. would be really gratefull if someone knows how to solve this.
    As a temporary solution,i disabled all options using only the mouse click, but to do it, i had to plug in my tablet (that works perfectly for the record) and use it instead of mouse (since it was impossible to use it), than went to mouse preferences and disable left click, scroll and side buttons and then restart the Mac (or else it wont work)..
    it will work fine but still a problem cause I use all mouse buttons custom as well as the students...

    I have been experiencing a freezing mouse as well. I updated the mouse drivers but it is still happening. I have been repairing the permissions and noticed something very strange see the mention of a -t. I have been running unix systems since 1984 and have never seen that before....
    Determining correct file permissions.
    Permissions differ on ./Library, should be drwxrwxr-t , they are drwxrwxr-x
    Owner and group corrected on ./Library
    Permissions corrected on ./Library
    Permissions differ on ./private/var/log/secure.log, should be -rw------- , they are -rw-r-----
    Owner and group corrected on ./private/var/log/secure.log
    Permissions corrected on ./private/var/log/secure.log
    Permissions repair complete
    Permissions differ on ., should be drwxrwxr-t , they are drwxr-xr-x
    Owner and group corrected on .
    Permissions corrected on .
    The privileges have been verified or repaired on the selected volume
    I reported this to Apple and they told me to erase the hard drive reinstall the
    system. I really don't want to have to do that. It seems like something is taking
    control of the machine.....

  • Strange behavior when "trying" to burn a disk.

    At least I think this is strange behavior, following the instructions in the help viewer, topic "Backing up your music to a CD or DVD." One thing for sure, it's not burning a disc and it ain't telling me why.
    I select the playlist and click "Burn Disc"
    Requests a blank disc. I insert one.
    Message "checking media"
    after about a minute, the disc ejects
    Message "checking media" displays another 30 seconds
    No other messages displayed.
    What the ??? Shouldn't it at least display an error message??

    Whoops, sorry, this was while burning a playlist.
    I've also tried some Pleomax CD disks (Samsung), with no luck. I've tried burning directly from iTunes, and from Toast 7.
    Of the types I've tried, the Sony DVD's have been the best for me. Haven't tried many types though. Maybe I can get disks one at a time until I find a brand my burner likes.
    Still, isn't it strange that there is NO error message? It just quits?

  • Strange Behavior with gMSA in Server 2012 R2

    Greetings,
    I have been doing some testing with gMSA Accounts in a Server 2012 R2 environment (two separate environments, actually), and I have noticed something very strange that occurred in both environments, which does not appear to be occurring in one of our customer's
    self-managed environments.
    We created a Group Managed Service Account using the following article:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/askpfeplat/archive/2012/12/17/windows-server-2012-group-managed-service-accounts.aspx
    Everything went smoothly, and the account installs/tests successfully on both of the hosts that we are testing on. I am able to set my services to run under the account, and most of them appear to work fine. I am having some issues with a few of my services,
    and I believe that the strange behavior I am seeing may have something to do with this - described below: 
    As soon as I set the service's Log On Account (via the Log On Tab under the Service's Properties), the entirety of the "Log On" tab changes to "greyed out," and I am unable to change the Log On account back via the GUI (Screenshot
    attached).
    I found that I am able to successfully change the account via Command Line using sc.exe, but the Log On tab remains greyed out! So far, I have found nothing to remedy this, but confirmed that it happens for any service I set to use the gMSA as the Logon
    Account, and that it happens in 2 separate test environments, but not in a Customer's production environment - very strange.
    All servers in this environment are running Server 2012 R2, and domain Functional Level is currently Server 2012.
    I have been unable to find any information online about this behavior, so I am hoping someone has seen this before, and can explain why this is happening.

    VIvian,
    Yes, we used the Install-AdServiceAccount gMSA command on each host using the gMSA account, and then ran Test-AdServiceAccount gMSA, which returned "True."
    However, one thing I noticed is that if I run Test-ADServiceAccount gMSA as a Local Administrator, it fails with the following:
    PS C:\Users\Administrator> Test-AdServiceAccount gMSA$
    Test-AdServiceAccount : The server has rejected the client credentials.
    At line:1 char:1
    + Test-AdServiceAccount gMSA$
    + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        + CategoryInfo          : SecurityError: (:) [Test-ADServiceAccount], AuthenticationException
        + FullyQualifiedErrorId : ActiveDirectoryCmdlet:System.Security.Authentication.AuthenticationException,Microsoft.A
       ctiveDirectory.Management.Commands.TestADServiceAccount
    If I run Test-ADServiceAccount gMSA as Domain Administrator, it returns true:
    PS C:\Users\Administrator.<domainname>> Test-AdServiceAccount gMSA$
    True
    Is this normal?
    Overall, I think the issue I am running into is at the Application Level, and not a problem with the gMSA, as it appears to be working. (Can Start/Stop services without any issues). I will be investigating my issue further with 3rd-party vendors, unless
    you think there is something wrong with my gMSA accounts based on the information I have provided.

  • Strange Behavior from iTunes 7.2

    Running itunes - 7.2Recently had my itunes library “corrupted” or non functional.
    Spent a long, long time rebuilding the library (see below) and noticed some strange behavior that has me terrified that itunes is corrupted and I am going to loose all the hard work, etc..
    1. I have about 100 GB of music in various formats (apple protected/itunes store, mp3 (128 to 320), apple lossless, wav) and when I tried to rebuild the library by clicking on add to library it only added about 65 GB of the 100 GB. I had to go through and figure out what was missing and manually choose the specific folder when I added it.
    Major pain and very time consuming.
    So it is not adding songs correctly, but through way too much effort able to work around this.
    2. About ½ of the itunes store tunes I purchased are no longer apple protected format. Somehow they were converted to mp3 at 192kbs. Some of the songs play fine others are now not as crisp and make a poping sound or skip. How could this happen? Are these files corrupted? Will I loose them?
    3. At the top center of itunes the information bar, where the read out is for what song is playing and how much time has elapsed in the song, is not working. When I click on a song it starts playing but the elapsed time bar and counter never move, and when the next song starts playing the information never changes. It is stuck on what ever song you initiate play with by clicking on it and the information stays frozen.
    4. itunes randomly stops playing at the end of a song….If listening to an album it is usually after three or four songs and when listening to a play list it is usually after one song.
    I am afraid itunes is corrupted and will not function correctly and I am going to loose the hard work I put in trying to recover from the last crash.
    Any suggestions??
    Can’t wait for time machine. I hope it works as advertised. If so I could just go back in time to the last time iTunes worked correctly and go from there.

    First of all I hope that you have a good b/u of all your tunes - either on ext HD or on DVD. Don't forget to b/u the iTunes Library and .xml files at the same time.
    Have you tried to reinstall iTunes? Drag the app to the trash and remove the iTunesX.pkg from HD>Library>Receipts>iTunesX.pkg. Using a fresh .dmg of iTunes 7.2 reinstall.
    Have you repaired permissions with Disk Utility?
    Is your Quicktime up to date? At least version v7.1.5.

  • Strange behavior - icon thumbnail instead of image - CC@OSX10.10

    Hi,
    my CC (@OS X 10.10.3) showing a strange behavior using vanishing point filter.
    After defining grid and try to paste the image OS X paste the icon thumbnail instead of the image,
    Many thanks in advance!!

    It is probably related to the fact that you are setting the tables row height in the renderer this will fire a render message when the height changes. One height is applied to all rows of a table. This means that is you have images of different heights you are continually changing the tables row height and therefore continually rendereing.
    My approach would be to have all the images fit into a set size ( say 64*64 ( with scaling if neccesary ) you could then have a popup show the full size image if required.
