Having a problem with LR5 install and beta version

I uninstalled LR5 beta first, then purchased and installed LR5  on windows 7. Now when I open LR5 I only get the images I download on the beta version and not my LR4 catalogs etc. How do I get LR4 to merge into LR5 new install?

Jan, it sounds like most of your work is in your LR4 catalog?  In that case, I would start Lightroom 5, go to File > Open Catalog and point to your Lightroom 4 catalog (like dj_paige said).  Lightroom 5 will update your LR4 catalog.  Depending on how many images are in your catalog, this could take some time.
Once your Lightroom 4 catalog is completely upgraded, decide if you want to merge your beta catalog into the upgraded catalog or not.  If you do, you can do File > Import from Another Catalog and point to your Beta catalog.  This will merge it into your newly-updated Lightroom 4 catalog.

    I have upgraded Apple Aperture from version 2 to version 3 and I'm having a problem with the "Highlights and Shadows" adjustment. According to the user's manual, I should have access to an advanced disclosure triangle which would allow me to adjust mid contrast, colour, radius, high tonal width and low tonal width.
    If anyone has any suggestions as to how to access this advanced section, I'd be most grateful.

    Hi David-
    The advanced adjustments in the Highlights & Shadows tool were combined into the "Mid Contrast" slider in Aperture 3.3 and later. If you have any images in your library that were processed in a version of Aperture before 3.3, there will be an Upgrade button in the Highlights & Shadows tool in the upper right, and the controls you asked about under the Advanced section. Clicking the Upgrade button will re-render the photo using the new version of Highlights & Shadows, and the Advanced section will be replaced with the new Mid Contrast slider. With the new version from 3.3 you probably don't need the Advanced slider, but if you want to use the older version you can download it from this page:

  • HT4060 I'm having some problems with my ipad and charging it. I am having to leave it in charge for a lot longer, but when I take it out and want to use it the battery is still not completely full and goes down a lot faster than usual

    I'm having some problems with my ipad and charging it. I am having to leave it in charge for a lot longer, but when I take it out and want to use it the battery is still not completely full and goes down a lot faster than usual. The other day, I had charged  my iPad overnight so that I could take it to university with me for the day, and when I had switched it on the next day the battery was on 5% and I had not used it since charge.

    Your battery may be dying. THey are only good for so many charges/discharges. If you have an apple store near by make an appointment and have them check itout

    I am not too sure if thats a virus or trojan.. I always thought that macs didn't get virus? this looks like one to me… any experts around? please help me fix it with your instructions? really don't know what to do... thanks

    Those are not viruses. You have probably installed some malware:
    The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide
    Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
    An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
    Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
    See these Apple articles:
              Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
              OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
              OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
              About file quarantine in OS X
    If you require anti-virus protection Thomas Reed recommends using Dr.Web Light from the App Store. It's free, and since it's from the App Store, it won't destabilize the system. If you prefer one of the better known commercial products, then Thomas recommends using Sophos.(Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.) If you already use Sophos, then be aware of this if you are using Mavericks: OS X Mavericks- Sophos Anti-Virus on-access scanner versions 8.0 - 9.1 may cause unexpected restarts
    From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
    The facts are:
    1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
    2. There is no anti-malware that can detect anything targeting the Mac because there
         is no Mac malware in the wild, and therefore, no "signatures" to detect.
    3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
         the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
         techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
    4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
        your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
        protection against malware.
    5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
        from which they purport to protect you.
    6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
    7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
    8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
        you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
    9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware.

  • Having a problem with app files and fonts between OS

    I work in a prepress department, and we are have issues with files that are coming from 10.4.11 to 10.5.8. The 10.4.11 is a power PC and the 10.5.8 is Intel. Fonts get corrupt and display as a unix file with 0 file size and application files like Quark loose there ID and come up as a document file. I think this has to do with the OS difference. Is there any way that this can be fixed???

    Well we are having the the same problem with folders. Jobs that are made on a 10.4 Mac, sometimes you can't see the contents of the folder on a 10.5 Mac. And there is no pattern.
    And if you take the contents out of the folder and put it loose using a 10.4 Mac, you can see it on a 10.5 Mac
    Also if we put a .dfont on the end to the font using a 10.4 Mac, you can see the font on a 10.5 Mac.
    This is all very strange. There are no patterns and no reason why one folder would work and the other does not. Just checking if there is something that could be causing a problem between the OS's.

  • Having a problem with Pro Tools and Quiktime may be the cause. Need advice.

    I recently installed Pro Tools recording software on my Mac and everytime I try and open the program I get a kernel panic "restart" screen. I have been told that it may have something to with my Quiktime version.
    I am running
    OSX version 10.4.7
    Pro Tools version 7.1
    and Quiktime version 7.0.4
    Could this be my problem? thanks

    A fax file is simply a TIFF file. If you converted it to a PDF (you did not give any info on your workflow), then you have a graphic. The conversion to Excel will also be a bunch of graphics I guess. You would need to run OCR first. Even then you may not get the column information and may have to copy column by column using alt key when selecting the text. That allows you go copy a column.

  • Having a Problem with WMA DRM and Muvo TX FM - Upd

    No elapsed time problem with WMA DRM or other protected files from:
    Napster
    WalMart
    Audible.com.
    Elapsed time problem with WMA DRM from:
    Netlibrary.com
    This is an update on the problem that I described below:
    Windows Media Player
    One problem I had was that Windows Media Player would not recognize my muvo players. It turned out that because I was using a USB hub for the players to connect WMP was not recognizing the players. When I used a direct line to the USB port on the computer, WMP has no problem recognizing the player.
    Digital License.
    As a test, I bought a WMA song file from WalMart to see if its Digital Rights Management was compatible with Muvo. There was no problem with the correct elapsed time showing. I will also test a file from Napster and add its license details here.
    Here is something else I noticed - the differences in
    the license for the two types of WMA files:
    The one from WalMart - which works fine with the
    elapsed time on the MuVo:
    This file can be played an unlimited number of times
    Collaborati've play for this file is not allowed
    This file can be burned 0 more times<<<
    This file can be synchronized an unlimited number of
    times
    The license for this file can be backed up <<<
    For the one from netlibrary.com
    This file can be played until 4/9/2005
    Collaborati've play for this file is not allowed
    This file cannot be burned
    This file can be synchronized 3 more times until
    4/9/2005
    The license for this file cannot be backed up<<<<
    I have been able to copy WMA with DRM audiobook files to my TX FM, but the elapsed time doesn't change with either play or fast forward. The file is from Netlibrary.com which supplies audiobooks to public libraries. The file plays, but the display stays all zeroes.
    I have been sending information and getting replies and suggestions from both Netlibrary support and Creative technical support with no solution. I have the latest firmware and everything else. I have the problem on both Windows XP and Windows 2000 computers. I have downloaded several files, but none of them show elapsed time. I suspect it is something to do with the DRM, because I can play a preview file from Netlibrary - without DRM - with no problem. I also have no problem with other files copied over - from Audible, from CDs, etc.Message Edited by alex20850 on 03-30-2005 07:54 PMMessage Edited by alex20850 on 03-30-2005 08:4 PM

    I'm primarily using my TX FM for netlibrary.com audiobooks and also get all zeros on the display.
    I've been steadily complaining to netlibrary and my local library about problems/inconveniences, itcertainly is experiencing growing pains; we're the ones getting the pain, though!
    I'll post here if I find a (legal) resolution to this.
    What firmware version do you have? I have .2.04 and I see that .3.03 is available for download. I've read here that there are problems with .3 with volume limiting and I'm hesitant to change. I do notice that one of the listed fixes is:
    Updates the elapsed time displayed during navigation within a long recorded track
    so, maybe this is the answer?

  • Anyone having printer problems with adobe cs5 and mountain lion

    I can print one copy in adobe cs5 but if I hit the print button it shuts down the program.  Anyone having this problem besides me?

    Are the drivers for your printer are up to date? You probably can print one copy cause it doesn't access the option window in your application.

  • Macbook 10.5.8 Version Built in ISight problem with YM 3.0 beta version

    I am using my Macbook built in ISight with the latest version of Yahoo Messenger for Mac, the 3.0 Beta. Every time i will use the YM webcam, it will only last for about 1 minute and will not work anymore. This is happening since i bought my macbook last November 2008. it will be a year next month and still the ISight is not working properly with YM. When i checked from the store where I bought my macbook, they said it happens in YM coz according to them YM is not yet fully applicable with apple laptop models and recommended to use other messenger instead. My family and friends are using YM only to keep in touch with me so I don't have a choice but continue using YM. Its really disappointing coz I even downloaded the other version of YM before this 3.0 version, but same problem still exists.
    Can anyone help me on how can i fix this problem? or if there is really a solution on this..I've always wanted to have a macbook laptop but having this kind of problem really made me think if i did a right decision to buy this laptop. it is indeed an expensive laptop but i cant enjoy it fully...
    please help me!!!

    Welcome to Discussions, Marianne Bayogos
    Problems like yours, especially those involving known-unreliable (Beta) software, can be difficult to resolve. You need to start by troubleshooting to determine the source of the problem. Then you will KNOW what to fix. You seem like a fairly experienced user, so try any of the following you think might help in any order you like.
    (0) You can use the suggestions in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090 to determine whether iSight is causing your problem. Be sure to try with more than one user account and with some other apps, too.
    If your iSight works properly with all other apps in every user account you test, your Apple hardware and software is NOT the cause.
    If you can eliminate iSight as the source of your trouble, you will need to either switch to other ways of communicating or troubleshoot other system elements that might be causing the problem. Here are some other things you can consider if you don't get better suggestions here.
    (1) Sometimes a restart restores function on internet connected applications. Shut down everything and restart your entire system including modem, router, and Mac in that order. To eliminate possible communication hardware problems, allow self-test to complete on each device before starting the next.
    (2) If you updated or installed any other software immediately before the problem began, check their websites to see if there are known issues with your system configuration or installation. If these are no know issues, carefully following the developers' instructions, reinstall any recent software additions that you think might be causing a conflict with YMM, use Disk Utility to repair permissions, and try again. Doing this reinstall will reduce the possibility that some recent addition might be conflicting with your new YMM Beta.
    If you find conflicting software, follow the instructions and uninstall to see if removing it will restore proper function to your favored communications apps.
    (3) Check YMM's Help: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/messenger/mac/mac3/index.html
    for help with installation and communication requirements/ configuration topics.
    If you do not find the answers there, check the dedicated YMM forum (use the "Ask Other Messenger Users" link on the help page) to see if your problem has already been solved by other users who post there.
    (4) You can also take your MacBook to a different location and see if the connection works when you access the web via a different internet connection.
    (5) I no longer use YM because I often encountered problems like those you describe, but my testing from several years back showed that Yahoo! seemed to support the Windows version of their messenger app better than the Mac version.
    Because your iNtel Mac can use Boot Camp, VMware Fusion™, Parallels™, or VirtualBox to run Windows® software, there is another alternative available to you. Choose which method you want to use to run Windows®, add the required software to your iNtel Mac (if you have not already done so), and then install and use Yahoo! Messenger for Windows.
      http://messenger.yahoo.com/platform/win
    (6) If all else fails, and if your family and friends are willing to try something "new and improved" (does NOT work with Yahoo! Messenger), you can both install and try a different video chat app such as Google Talk or Skype.
    (7) Alternatively, you can try the web-based video chat sites like http://www.mebeam.com/ or Defcom's recommended TokBok.

  • Sync problem with Outlook 2007 and BDS version 7.1

    I upgraded from 6 to 7,1 on Blackberry Desktop Software and now get the following error when trying to USB sync.  I use homail account through outlook connector.
     "Unable to access local folders. If your Outlook profile uses Hotmail connector, you must create a local data store (PST) and set it as the default delivery location for the profile."
    I have had no problems syncing until I upgraded to version 7.1.  Is there a fix for this or how do I reinstal version 6.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Here is a KB that discusses that error:
    KB32597 A Hotmail connector error appears when attempting to synchronize with Microsoft Outlook using the BlackBerry Desktop Software
    Hopefully it contains something useful! There also are multiple existing threads on this site that discuss that exact error...your review of those might prove useful, and a search of this site, using the error message, error code, or symptom, should reveal all applicable existing threads to you.
    As an alternative, I suggest this thread:
    http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Desktop-Sof​tware-for-PC/Cleanly-quot-Starting-Over-quot-with-​...
    It starts with a process for cleanly starting over, and there is some discussion, and there is also a post (15) with links to older Desktop Software versions, if those are needed. Note that this is not, by any means, guaranteed to work...but it has worked for many to resolve issues they are having.
    Good luck and let us know!
    Occam's Razor nearly always applies when troubleshooting technology issues!
    If anyone has been helpful to you, please show your appreciation by clicking the button inside of their post. Please click here and read, along with the threads to which it links, for helpful information to guide you as you proceed. I always recommend that you treat your BlackBerry like any other computing device, including using a regular backup schedule...click here for an article with instructions.

  • Having a problem with my mac and wy windows network!

    Hi all! this is my first post, se please forgive any etiquette errors!
    I have bootcamp installed on my macbook, as the company i work with has a completely windows setup, but i would like to get away from this and be able to use my mac as it was intended!
    However, i am having a couple of problems...
    I can connect to the network via VPN, and get given an IP address.
    I can ping other machines on the network via IP address
    I can connect to machines using microsoft's Remote Desktop Connection by entering their IP address.
    That is all fine and dandy! Then come my questions, which i have tried to research, but have hurt my head with the complicated array of manuals, guides, hints, tips etc, and was wondering if anyone here would be lovely enough to give me a step by step how-to or two!
    I cannot mount the main server's file share (windows 2003)
    I cannot ping or remote desktop to a machine by its name (which is a problem, as they are all on DHCP!)
    I cannot connect Mail to the exchange 2003 server (ideally this would work without being connected to the VPN, as is possible in windows through RDP via HTML... or some such initials!)
    Any help yould be very much appreciated!

  • I'm having a problem with the registry and iTunes.

    Vista stopped seeing my DVD/CD drive the other day, so I went to the registry and deleted the high and low pass filters for the drive. This fixed that problem.
    Only problem now was that none of my programs would see the drive, so I had to reinstall all my burning software and such... except that iTunes, after reinstalling it 5 times, still will not see my drive.
    Any ideas or help? Thanks.
