Have trial version of lightroom images display in library and 'before' in developer, but can't display full image to develop. Shows as a blue box with a white X on it.

I have downloaded and installed Lightroom for a 30 day trial. Library works fine, but when I try to edit images in Develop, I can't see the full size image just a blue box with a white X on it. If I switch on to Before & After mode, the image displays fine in the before, but still just blue box in the 'after'. Can't find any answer to this anywhere! Please help as my trial days are running out.

Hi, my trial version of Lightroom 5 has recently expired and I have now fully bought it. I have uploaded the CD onto my Mac, but when I open the Lightroom application again, it still says the trial has expired. Does anybody know how I can update it so I can finally use it again? I really appreciate any help!! Thank you!

Joanne please remove your current installation of Photoshop Lightroom using the uninstallers located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers.
You will then want to download Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.7.1 from Adobe - Lightroom : For Macintosh. The update contains the entire application. Photoshop Lightroom can not be installed through the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop application and still be licensed with a serial number.

I have trial versions of Lightroom and Elements 11. "Edit in Photoshop.." does not open the image

Using trial versions of Lightroom and Elements 11, th ecommand to "Edit in Photoshop Elements 11" succeeds in opening Photoshop but fails to open the image. Any ideas?

I have the same problem with PS Elements 13 trial version (fully updated), but sadly this solution doesn't work... there is no 'Support Files' folder, and nothing called 'Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor.app' anywhere else.
Any thoughts?

What does it mean when a blue box with a white question mark appear instead of images?

This happens frequently when I'm using the internet. I've tried using different web browsers, but nothing helps. Also, the internet goes in and out, but wi fi signal is fine. Any ideas?

The browser timed out waiting for the image data to come across the Internet link. Can be accidental, a really lousy ISP service, or deliberate, some entity along the line is preventing the images from getting across. Try starting up the browser in "safe" mode with all plug-ins and add-ons disabled (see the Help menu in Firefox, see the Security pane in Safari's Preferences), just to make sure the browser isn't blocking itself. If that doesn't help, you will have to go "up the food chain": check your router, call your ISP, try connecting from different places, etc.

I'm using the latest version of FF on both my desktop and Android mobile device but can't get bookmarks to sync. What am I doing wrong?

I have two icloud ID's I want my iPad and iPhone to communicate but can't unless I change my acct on phone to match my iPad

I have had an iPad for a yeAr now and recently purchased an iPhone 5c for Christmas. The gentleman that activated my phone used an additional icloud ID because I couldn't remember the password for the icloud ID on my iPad. I would like my iPhone and my iPad to communicate with each other but I need to change the new iD on my phone and add the old iD to my phone but do not know how. Can anyone help me?

You can't merge Apple IDs. What you could do is set up your phone to use the same iCloud accout you are using on your Mac. To do this, go to Settings>iCloud and turn all synced data (Contacts, Calendars, etc.) to Off. When prompted, choose to keep the data on the phone. When everything is off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. Now add the iCloud account you set up on your Mac (with the same Apple ID) and turn syncing back on for Calendars, Contacts, etc. When prompted, you will probably want to choose merge, to merge the data on your phone with the existing data on this iCloud account.

Images on certain websites come up blank with little blue box with white "?" inside

I own a MacBook Pro (MAC OS X 10.6.8) that I purchased in 2011. I have never had a single problem before, but here very recently youtube, my school (FSU) website, and a few other random websites will not load images. At all. They just show a little blue box with a white question mark inside. I have tried emptying the catch, resetting safari, nothing works. Help? I need to be able to see the images on my.fsu.edu it's really important!

Problem downloading trial version of Lightroom 4

I am trying to download the trial version of Lightroom 4 for Windows (English), but nothing happens when I click on the "Download" button. This is very weird. I am a current user of PSE 10, and I would like to see if I should also get Lightroom 4, because I find that the Organizer in PSE is too slow, and hope that Lightroom would be much better from comments I read on the Internet.

Thanks. It worked with Google Chrome, but was not working with Internet Explorer.

When you click Download, the download should start automatically. It could be that a pop-up/download blocker/anti-virus is preventing the download. As a first step, you could try using a different web browser to download from the following link: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_lightroo m

I have downloaded a trial version of lightroom 4 to upgrade from my lightroom 3, but it wont open.

Hi all, I have downloaded a trial version of lightroom 4 to see if I want to upgrade from my lightroom3, but it wont open on my pc. It keeps asking me what program I want to use to open it with, and when I click adobe reader it tells me that it is not a supported file type or the file has been damaged! Help!???

When I click on the program download in the download file, it asks me if I want to open it. When I click open, it then asks me which program I want to use to open it with, (this window lists all programs such as Nero, internet explorer adobe reader etc) and automatically highlights adobe reader. After I click open with the adobe reader highlighted, it then tells me that it cannot open Lightroom because it is not a supported file type, or the file has been damaged! I have downloaded it twice but neither one is able to open. Thanks so much.

You should uninstall the LR trial that is asking for a serial number, then quit the CC Desktop app, then restart it, at which point Lr should show in the CC Desktop apps list with an Install button next to it.
There can be only one LR installed at a time, so if your trial is there, the CC Desktop won’t install another.

Does the trial version of Lightroom have the full functionality as the paid version

Does the trial version of Lightroom have the full functionality as the paid version please

Yes, it has. if you have specific issues, simply explain them.

Troubleshooting raw files on trial version of Lightroom 4

Just downloaded a trial version of Lightroom 4. Am proficient in PS6 but have never used Lightroom. I decided to do a practice run through Lightroom using a folder from a recent shoot..some jpegs are finished and named, some are left alone and I have all the raw files in this folder and expected the entire file of pics to "show" in Lightroom. Only the named finished pics are showing the image and only the raw files are named but "unavailable" to be seen, and any unworked jpegs are not showing at all. As I say I was just doing a practice run on putting Lightroom 4 through its paces so I could familiarize myself with its use. These are files from a Canon 5D Mark III. Help me troubleshoot this please.

Although I'm not entirely certain from your problem description, am I right in guessing that these issues are appearing on the Import Screen when you are initially trying to import that folder? If so, "named finished pics are showing the image" I interpret to mean that for jpegs that you have RE-named from original (every file has a name!) you see the thumbnails in the centre panel of the Import screen, which is what you expect.
Original Raw files, however, do not show the image preview....so what does show, any message at all? For 5DIII raw files you need to be running LR4.1 or later, can you confirm that's what you are running?
Finally, the jpegs which you haven't re-named, and are not showing, I'm assuming these are part of Raw+Jpeg 'pairs' SOOC, is that correct? If so, go to the Preferences menu in Lightroom and check that in the Import Options section of the General Tab you have checked the option to "Treat JPEG files next to raw files as separate photos". If it is UNchecked, Lightroom will not show you the Jpeg half of such 'pairs', it will simply make a reference to the Jpeg as a "sidecar" file to the Raw, and the Jpeg cannot be separately processed. Check the option, however, and you do get separate files...

I am using Lightroom 3 and need to access a catalog I created with a trial version of Lightroom 4.

I need to access a catalog I created with a trial version of Lightroom 4. I am currently using Lightroom 3. Can someone help me find a way to get my images from this catalog? I don't want to upgrade at this point as I am running on a mid 2007 iMac and would need to buy new RAM, upgrade my OS, etc.... I would rather wait and spend the money on a new system when I'm ready.

Hi Rikk,
I just saw your answer to Deborah,
Does this mean catalogs not backward compatable in regards to metadata and keywords as well?
I am working on a giant archiving project here in India. The main system here is a Mac G5 Tower at 10.6.8, and it's running LR 3.2. I have my MacBook Air here, running Mavericks and LR 4.4.1.
I want to take the archive catalog OFF of LR 3.2, put it on the Air, running 4.4.1 - then ADD metadata and keywords to the catalog images while on the Air and THEN re-install/import/export/etc the catalog back to the main tower LR 3.2 with out starting a huge problem of version/upgrades/etc. That way another person can be using the tower to scan while I do keywords.
I have only a week more here for this project. If anyone knows asap would be great. Thanks in advance.

How to activate the trial version of lightroom 3

Hello,
I am new here and need some help.
I have downloaded the trial version of lightroom 3 in my home windows computer and like it very much. I have then proceeded to purchase a box copy which will only arrive after two weeks. However i do not plan to install it on my home computer but my new imac computer at my office where i will do all my photo editing.
My problem is i cannot wait for two weeks for the product to arrive. Can i download another trial version for my new imac in my office and when the box product comes can i just use the serial number and activate the trial version or do i have to uninstall the trial version and reinstall again. According to my seller she says that i cant do this because i need to reinstall the box product again which sounds weird to me.
My other question is the earlier trial version that i installed in my home computer, i dont plan to use it anymore, so can i just ignore it?
Thanks in advance.

Importing photos puts information for each one into the LR catalog, which is just a database that LR knows how to read and write. Reopening the catalog with a new install of LR would tell LR where each of those photos is, and what adjustments you'd made. You don't have to reimport as long as you reopen the same catalog file with the new install. You could try this on Windows: uninstall-reinstall-reopen, and see how it works to get comfortable with it. You only have to reimport if you lose your catalog, and have to start a new one. If you write the metadata to files, either automatically via a preference, or manually via the Metadata menu item and grid mode, then you can even have your adjustments intact if you have to reimport, but you'll lose your history and other things that are only in the catalog and not in the XMP sidecar files. These sidecar files is probably the only way to transfer edits from the PC version to the Mac version of LR which you probably hadn't considered. At least I don't think you can copy the LR catalog file from a PC and open it on a Mac.
If the LR trial expires before you have a serial number then you can't use it, but once you do enter in the serial number, you can pick up where you left off.
Lightroom isn't activated like Photoshop where there is a Adobe-server record of each computer and serial number. LR is just either an unregistered-trial, an expired-trial or registered. LR is smart enough to understand if you've installed it on the computer, before, so you can't extend a trial by uninstalling and re-installing w/o reformatting your HD and reinstalling the OS, or at least I think that is enough.
