There are no Apple employees here but....
Have you tried using the Selective Track Import (STI) feature to recover the tracks one by one from your corrupted project to a new one?
This video is for LP9 but STI works much the same way in LPX and is one of the most useful little 'gadgets' in LP's toobox...
http://support.apple.com/kb/VI255
and a detailed outline with screenshots can be found here...
http://music.tutsplus.com/tutorials/how-to-use-selective-track-import-in-logic-p ro-9--audio-3181
Just create a new project.. and then import one track at a time from your old project into the new one, testing after each to help you identify the problem causing parts of your old project...

LR5 crashes when trying "Update Photoshop Elements Catalog" from PSE13

LR5 crashes after approx 3 minutes when trying "Update Photoshop Elements Catalog". I use PSE13, optimized and repaired several times. I get approx 10000 out of 30000 items into LR5 from PSE13

Per the user's guide, from the Library Module I: File > Upgrade Photoshop Elements Catalog
This brings up a dialog box that shows the most recently upgraded PSE catalog. Then, to quote the user's guide, "To choose a different PSE catalog, click the Elements drop-down menu."
There is no "Elements drop-down menu" within the dialog box to click on. The closest thing is an expand triangle opposite "Catalog info," but when clicked, that only displays more detail about the source PSE catalog I have already upgraded. There doesn't seem to be any way to browse to or select a second PSE catalog — which is what I'm trying to do.

LR crashes after install, while building catalog

After install, LR4 tries to build a catalog. The problem is I have terabytes of images. LR uses the ADD EVERYTHING (opt out) mentality and of course fails miserably and after a few hours crashes (probably the 4GB catalog file limit). Anyway - I'd like to instruct LR to only catalog my working folder... not everything I've done for 30 years.
Bridge and CS5 don't seem to have issues like this... but I'd like to learn a bit about LR because some people say there are a few small advantages over CS.
Any ideas?

Interesting, I thought it was Adobe Lightroom I was having problems with... but I stand corrected, I did purchase Adobe Photoshop Lightroom. I'll be sure to let all my friends know the correct complete name when I report how it works for me.

Lightroom was unable to optimize the catalog - Error Since Loading v1.3

I just installed Lightroom v1.3 over Lightroom v1.2. Since then, I have been unable to optimize the catalog. When I try, it looks like it is working for a while, and then gives me this message. 'Lightroom was unable to optimize the catalog and must quit. The next time you run Lightroom, it will check the catalog for problems."
I have tried multiple times to restart Lightroom and Windows and reoptimize, but same message. I tried with a two week old catalog file, but still get the message. I uninstalled v1.3 and reloaded v1.2 and tried with the current catalog file and with older catalog files, still get message.
Lightroom v1.2 and v1.3 runs, but I have noticed things running slower with v1.3 and I have to restart more often due to Lightroom slowdown. I need to be able to optimize to keep things running as fast as possible.
Lightroom Catalog.lrcat is 1.3 GB
Approximately 75,000 images
Windows XP Profession Service Pack 2
Pentium 4 2.80GHz
2GB RAM
Normally, I back up the database 2-5 times a week and optimize the DB 3-6 times a week, along with keeping the hard drive defragged.

Is your machine maxing out during these times? My guess is it's got 10-50,000 left photos to update to v 1.3. It may be not a good thing to switch between the two versions. Until more definitive answers can be found, perhaps running a new catalog for new work might be a good plan, using only v 1.3.

Trying to Create a Catalog file using WSIM (Windows System Image Manager)

I have been looking online for a solution to htis problem for days and come up with nothing so any help would be amazingly helpful.
I have created a Windows 8.1 image which I would like to role out to all users within my company but when trying to create a catalog file I am getting an erorr message saying "Windows SIM was unable to generate a catalog." It says "Mounting

The one image that did work (LiteTouchPE_x64.wim) was from the OS I imported to Microsoft Workbench but the components are different to any that I have seen online when looking on how to do this.
I have made sure that the architecture is x64 and tried from ISO files I have on the system already but get the same error.
This is the first project I have been involved in and only ever done IT support before this.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Trying to optimize eSATA and internal disk configurations

I'm trying to optimize the HD setup on my dual 2.5GHz G5 with 4.5GB RAM
major considerations.
- massive itunes library (260GB), and big iphoto lib (25GB) as well
- lots of video editing in Final Cut with large capture files and many video exports
- regular podcasting and other media creation with all my music and photos
- need for regular COMPLETE backups
- speed
Here's the current setup. I have six disks as part of the system
1. internal 160GB disk (maps simply to a MACHD volume)
2. internal 250GB disk (maps simply to a COMMONS volume for Democracy player files, torrent downloads etc)
then on my 4-port eSATA controller card
4x 500GB SATA drives from Western Digital for a total of 2TB eSATA disk space
they are in 2 eSATA enclosures from FirmTek
I'm managing the disks with SoftRAID
Before I get into the problem, how would YOU use this incredible amount of disk space, considering the goals I have? (video, media storage, backup).
Now, The problem
I've been disappointed with the speed of my system and suspect its my HD configuration. I have enough RAM right!?
I've got some raid stripes going on
2 of the 500GB disks (disk2 and disk3) support two "active" volumes
a) a striped ATLAS volume of 800GB (holds itunes, documents, iphoto, basically all media files)
b) a striped VIDEO SCRATCH volumn of 200GB (for working files in FCP, imovie, etc)
the other 2 of the 500GB disks (disk0 and disk1) support two "clone" volumes
a) a mirror MACHDCLONE volume on both disk0 and disk1 (to protect the system drive. I run Super Duper 3x per week)
b) a striped ATLAS_CLONE volume to backup the active ATLAS volume
the COMMONS volume is not backed up in any way. figure i can live without my Democracy files and torrents, etc.
My ideas:
based on my performance observations, my setup above is just wrong, and I don't know where to turn for the best advice. Google is very poor at dealing with such complexity in search results. There are some video advice sites, but they only cover part of my problems. I have a few theories of how I should be using these drives
1. use the eSATA drives strictly for performance benefits, not for backup. consider a USB2.0 drive for backups and use Mozy for offsite backup
2. simplify the disk allocation. No single disk should support more than one volume
3. the video scratch SHOULD be striped in order to benefit from speed. and should be on its own physical disk(s) separate from ANY other function
So I'm thinking
a) stripe two of the eSATAs into a single 1 TB array for my media or ATLAS volume
- this solves me running out of space on the volume (getting closer with the iTunes video downloads every day)
- it's also just physically easier to deal with. I can SEE what drives make up ATLAS alone
- will be easier for me to eventually replace the G5 with an MBP running its own eSATA pc card with easy access to the same ATLAS volume
this still leaves two 500GB eSATA disks around
b1) I could extend the ATLAS volume to an array including a 3rd eSATA disk for a 1.5TB volume. this would allow me to bring COMMONS files onto ATLAS
b2) the remaining 500GB eSATA disk can be video scratch
OR
c1) dedicate 1 500GB disk to VIDEO SCRATCH
and
c2) partition the other 500GB disk as a clone of both COMMONS and the internal System drive
see how CONFUSING THIS IS ?
there are too many permutations of things.
I know I like keeping the system drive simple and internal. Ideally, the second internal disk would mirror this volume, but they do not match in size or brand
part of me wants to stripe all FOUR eSATA drives into a blazing 2TB masterpiece, but it seems like a bad idea to put VIDEO SCRATCH on the same array as ATLAS
Other questions:
should the itunes library get it's own disk altogether? is striping of benefit here?
are there some sites that explain HD management well?
PowerMac G5 2.5GHz 4.5GB RAM Mac OS X (10.4.9) also own a blacbook

Thanks so much for that awesome feedback.
A few points.
I have the dual processor G5, not the quad core. Purchased in Jan 2005.
My RAM pageouts are fine (didn't know what that was until you mentioned it)
Love the idea of moving COMMONS "outside the box"
I used to have my system volume boot from an external RAID, but didn't notice a big improvement, and it meant my G5 would ONLY boot if the eSATAs were powered up. I just didn't like that feel. I want the tower to work in a self-contained fashion, even if I don't have access to all media. I want access to the OS and apps.
I'm unlikely to buy more SATA controllers and enclosers or too many new disks. I'm on a serious budget and want to work with as much of what I have as possible. That said, i just checked out the Drobo and am drooling. I'll wait to see how well it performs for data access (and video) and not just storage.
It sounds dreamy to stripe all four of the eSATAs into a 1.8TB storage megaplex. I imagine they would scream in an ATLAS_BADASS volume, but then I've got nothing left for VIDEO SCRATCH used to capture and render.
The VIDEO_SCRATCH doesn't need to be large, and I think that's where I'm having a conflict. My eSATA drives are way too big to use even ONE as a video scratch, much less striping two of those bad boys just for that purpose
Purchasing a 10K drive for video scratch (or system volume) is not really in the cards yet.
So here's where I sit now:
1. My Media Storage
++ the 4 eSATA drives (2.0TB raw)
I go with the badass steroid injected ATLAS volume striped across all four.
this is my media array and holds all the contents of ATLAS and COMMONS (iTunes, iPhoto, Documents, FCP training videos, ripped DVDs, the works)
2. My System Volume
++ the 250GB internal SATA
move COMMONS out
migrate system volume to this disk
better storage-to-free space ratio
3. My Scratch Disk
a) use the now-spare 160GB internal Maxtor (probably weak and slow)
b) get an external FW800 RAID disk from OWC
http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/firewire/hard-drives/EliteAL/StripedRAID
I'd go with the 160GB or 320GB
4. Backup Plan - level 1 - local
++ use my spare external Maxtor 250GB FW drive
clone the system volume regularly
++ get an external FW drive (like the 1TB My Book Premium II from WD)
clone ATLAS_BADASS regularly
the WD is just $400
i know it's capacity is lower than my super striped RAID, but i don't know of any cheap way to clone ATLAS_BADASS to a 1.5TB drive
5. Backup Plan - level 2 - remote
pay for a Mozy storage account which has unlimited capacity
upload system and ATLAS_BADASS every few weeks
any new thoughts? and thanks again!

Hi Ian.
Thank you for answering. But I find no such file in Preferences. I think Lightroom freezes before making the preference file. Other solutions?
Best wishes,

Trying to optimize this simple query

Hi,
I am trying to optimize this simple query but the two methods I am trying actually make things worse.
The original query is:
SELECT customer_number, customer_name
FROM bsc_pdt_account_mv
where rownum <= 100
AND Upper(customer_name) like '%SP%'
AND customer_id IN
SELECT cust_id FROM bsc_pdt_assoc_sales_force_mv
WHERE area_identifier IN (
SELECT area_identifier FROM bsc_pdt_assoc_sales_force_mv
WHERE ad_identifier = '90004918' or rm_identifier = '90004918' or tm_identifier = '90004918'
The result set of this query returns me the first 100 rows in 88 seconds and they are all distinct by default (don't know why they are distinct).
My first attempt was to try to use table joins instead of the IN conditions:
SELECT
distinct -- A: I need to use distinct now
customer_number, customer_name
FROM bsc_pdt_account_mv pdt,
bsc_pdt_assoc_sales_force_mv asf,
SELECT distinct area_identifier FROM bsc_pdt_assoc_sales_force_mv
WHERE ad_identifier = '90004918' or rm_identifier = '90004918' or tm_identifier = '90004918'
) area
where
area.area_identifier = asf.area_identifier
AND asf.cust_id = pdt.customer_id
AND Upper(customer_name) like '%SP%'
AND rownum <= 100 -- B: strange when I comment this out
order by 1
I dont understand two things with this query. First issue, I now need to put in the distinct because the result set is not distinct by default. Second issue (very strange), when I put the rownum condition (<100) I get two rows in 1.5 seconds. If I remove the condition, I get 354 rows (whole result set) in 326 seconds.
My second attempt was to use EXISTS instead of IN:
SELECT
customer_number, customer_name
FROM bsc_pdt_account_mv pdt
where Upper(customer_name) like '%SP%'
AND rownum <= 100
AND EXISTS
select 1 from
bsc_pdt_assoc_sales_force_mv asf,
SELECT distinct area_identifier FROM bsc_pdt_assoc_sales_force_mv
WHERE ad_identifier = '90004918' or rm_identifier = '90004918' or tm_identifier = '90004918'
) area
where
area.area_identifier = asf.area_identifier
AND asf.cust_id = pdt.customer_id
This query returns a similar distinct result set as teh original one but takes pretty much the same time (87 seconds).

The query below hangs when run in TOAD or PL/SQL Dev. I noticed there is no rows returned from the inner table for this condition.
SELECT customer_number, customer_name
FROM
bsc_pdt_account_mv pdt_account
where rownum <= 100
AND exists (
SELECT pdt_sales_force.cust_id
FROM bsc_pdt_assoc_sales_force_mv pdt_sales_force
WHERE pdt_account.customer_id = pdt_sales_force.cust_id
AND (pdt_sales_force.rm_identifier = '90007761' or pdt_sales_force.tm_identifier = '90007761') )
ORDER BY customer_name
-- No rows returned by this query
SELECT pdt_sales_force.cust_id
FROM bsc_pdt_assoc_sales_force_mv pdt_sales_force
WHERE pdt_sales_force.rm_identifier = '90007761' or pdt_sales_force.tm_identifier = '90007761'

QT7 Pro crashes trying to open .m4v movie files...Help!

I just purchased QT 7 Pro. I also use Handbrake to pull content off DVDs (I work in the film industry). I ripped several 5 min. scenes in Handbrake and they encode as .m4v files. I want to shorten and re-encode them for use on a website. I'd like to do this in QT 7 Pro, but it crashes trying to open any of these .m4v files. I tried renaming the file extension to .mov or mp4, but no luck.
I assumed this would be simple, seeing that QT is obviously mpeg4 compatible and .m4v is the iTunes format extension for movies. Any help out there?

Try Wondershare Video Converter. They also make Wondershare DVD Ripper and I believe you can choose what format the resulting video is be made into. They also make Wondershare DVD Copy

You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists.

Thanks for your help on this. I was trying to restore from a new drive. The problem I have is that Time Machine will not let me do so, so far.
When I go into 'Restore from Time Machine Back up) I can access the Time Machine HD ok. But then when I go onto next page (Select a Back Up) the 'Restore From' option only has the greyed out name of my crashed HD (this seems wrong?). If I continue the process to erase starts and then stops, message says:
An error occurred while adding a recovery system to the destination disk.
it only seems to want me to back up to my crashed HD which I have no intention of using

Lightroom 4.1 continually crashes on import/export of catalogs

I have images that I export as a catalog from my notebook and external drive to my desktop . Did this all the time before the release candidate 4.1 without a hint of problems.
With 4.1, it crashes 90% of the time....average export/import of a catalog I am running is about 3000 images. What is particularly wierd is that it crashes on multiples of 500. Normally first crash is at 500, the next at 1000 or 1500 and so forth. any thoughts?

thanks, Cataog exports were Smart Collections of a days worth of images. From the Smart Collection, I selected export as a Catalog so all things associated with it would go.I do not opt out of anything. After a LR4.1 uninstall/install we were able to get pass the 500 series issues but after importing all the images, the programs crashes every time...images to move and they look okay...we have taken out IE9, optimized all catalogs, tried totally new catalogs, large catalogs, small catalogs, all with the same result of a crash now just after the last image moves.

Computer crashed, trying to register on new computer

My computer recently crashed which had I think CS5. (Cant remember if it was 5.5 or 5.) I have gotten a new computer now and am trying to install the program on my new Mac. I have logged into my adobe account but it does not show any products registered. I originally installed adobe from a disk but have since lost the disk. I have the serial number, but it says it has already been registered. Is there any way to help me install this onto my new computer?

You can only register a product once. That is not the same as activating a product, which is what you will use the serial number for. As long as you have the serial number you should be able to download the installation files and use the serial number to activate. You will have to figure out whether it is for CS5 or CS5.5 though.
