HELP!! Lightroom has stopped working.

Just added serial number to my trial program & it was loading & working just fine for a couple minutes & then all of a sudden it just closed & stopped working. When I go to open it now it says "Lightroom has stopped working" check online or close program, but it doesn't do anything when I go to check online. also when I view program details...it says the even was APPCRASH. Does anyone know what happened. I assume yes, something crashed. But I tried uninstalling & reinstalling & it is still doing it! Can somebody help!!!??? Please?

Open a Windows Explorer, and navigate to the following directory:
"Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Lightroom\Preferences\"
In there, you'll see a file called "Lightroom 3 Preferences.agprefs". Rename this file to "Lightroom 3 Preferences.agprefs.old", then start LR.

    I cannot open lightroom "lightroom has stopped working" error message

    I'm having what sounds to be the same issue. May I ask what version you were running? I'm using 4.1... And more importantly, have you figured out a solution?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks!

  • Adobe Photoshop Lightroom has stopped working error

    Updated to latest CC version - everything worked as expected for a couple of days - earlier this afternoon LR started (and continues) to crash. "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom has stopped working" error - I followed various bits of support instructions - uninstalling - re-installing - signing out and back in - downloaded and engaged "Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool" - now, several hours later, the problem has not been resolved - I urgently need to get back to my project. Unfortunately, I even followed the thread that instructed to uninstall the previous 5.7.1 version.
    Please assist asap - regards Kalli

    Did not tinker with any of the setting options in the preference dialog. Just installed and worked successfully for a couple of days using the default settings.
    Since the first crash some hours ago, LR has not stayed open making it impossible to try different settings.
    The default install provided a fully working app - I tried out the new feature and soon after went back to my project.
    Could the fact that I uninstalled the previous - 5.7.? version have anything to do with this?
    How can I re-install the previous version at it was stable?
    Do any of you have any answers?
    And / or do you know how to engage Adobe?
    Thanks - Kalli

  • ITunes Helper Module has stopped working

    I just downloaded the new version of iTunes and now iTunes and Quicktime wont open at all. When I click on iTunes or when I first turn the computer on, a window pops up that says the iTunes Helper module has stopped working. Then another window pops up right after that says "iTunes has stopped working". It checks for a solution to the problem and then says "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." When I try to open QuickTime, it says "Runtime error! Program:C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QuickTime Player.exe This application has requested the RunTime to terminate it in an unusual way." I have Vista which seems to cause problems with the firewall and iTuens, so I turned off the firewall from my security software, switched on the windows firewall, and made sure the settings were right. I even tried doing a System restore to the previous version (same problems) and then tried reinstalling the new version (Still same problems). Anyone have any suggestions?!?!

    hey stess,
    I have the exact problem you have. I tried deleting (went into program files and deleted the folders ) from my system and reinstalling it. It worked until i rebooted my system, I am still on xp. The restore doesnt help either. It cant be my ipod ( its quiet old!) as it isnt even connected to my system at start up. I think maybe a bug with the new version that will eventually have more and more users affected when they update. I f i find a solution I will post asap... good luck

  • "Edit in Photoshop" link from Lightroom has stopped working.

    My "Edit in Photoshop" link from Lightroom has stopped working.  If I hit "Cmd E" in Lightroom, Photoshop opens, but the picture doesn't appear.  I have LR 5 and PS CC 2014.  I recently uninstalled or deleted PS 6 & PS CC (not PS CC 2014).  Any suggestions?

    Same problem here. I uninstalled Photoshop CS5 and reinstalled. No change.  I also tried dumping PS preferences
    It opens the Photoshop application with all the menus/windows, but it never opens the actual image I chose to work on.
    I'm on a Mac, using OS X Yosemite, 10.10.1  Lightroom is version 5.7  Photoshop is CS5, version 12.0.4
    FWIW, I also can't automate>Photomerge ... . Makes me think Photoshop, not Lightroom, is all wacky.

  • Please HELP, "iTunes has stopped working" error after connecting iPod video

    People please help me out!  I have a Razer Blade gaming laptop with Windows 8 64bit.
    I have an iPhone 5, iPad 2 and an iPod video (80GB).  I had some weeks from not connecting the iPod to my computer, but this morning that I did so I can upload some new music to it, iTunes just crash, I get the "iTunes has stopped working" error message when I connect the iPod video.  I do not have this problem with either the iPhone 5 or the iPad 2, when I connect these, iTunes works fine, once I connect the iPod, then all goes down
    Procedures that I already tried and that were unsuccessful to solve the problem:
    Uninstall Quicktime
    Uninstall iTunes and reinstall
    Reset the iPod (several times)
    Delete TEMP files on computer
    Restart the computer (several times)
    Use a different cable and a different USB port
    The iPod is working fine, if I plug it to my car stereo or if I use it with headphones it works great, no problems nor errors.  My computer also identify the iPod as a hard disk, no error messages from Windows, it is just the freakin' iTunes that freezes everytime that I plug the iPod
    PLEASE HELP ME OUT, I've searched forums on this particular issue but with no luck.
    Thanks very much!

    It is only when I attempt to add a song to my iPod once plugged in that I receive the error "Itunes has stopped working" and forces me to exit the program, without the song being successfully transferred.
    Do you have the "Convert to 128 kbps AAC" preference enabled for syncing to the iPod, laur?
    If so, it's quite plausible that you've got the iTunes 10.1.0.54 bug and we need to get you updated to 10.0.1.56 as per the following document:
    [iTunes 10.1 for Windows: iTunes may stop working and need to quit while importing or syncing audio|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3591]

  • HELP Mail has stopped working

    On my G3 Tower, my mail account has stopped working. It says it can't communicate with the host. But, I haven't changed anything about my wireless network and my browsers are working just fine. I also have a G4 laptop and all is fine with the mail function. I've tried taking the .mail file out of the preferences file and copying it to my desktop. It gives the same error. Any ideas how to fix this??
    Thanks

    Hi Adnan,
    The Mac OS X 10.4.7 Update introduced connection issues as a result of (according to the documentation) "Mail now supports connecting to mail servers through a SOCKS proxy". If that's the problem, you must go to System Preferences > Network and disable the SOCKS Proxy in the network configuration used to connect to the Internet, if it's enabled.

  • SUPPORT TECH HELP - "iTunes has stopped working"

    Trying to find out how to get help on this site is EXTREMELY frustrating. I want to just submit and email but apparently you can't do that...or they make it impossible for you to find an easy way to.
    I'm hoping this will get to a SUPPORT TECHNICIAN and not just the random "community" of customers.....
    My iTunes stops working ever since I've tried to connect it with the iCloud thing. I don't want all my stuff floating around the interwebs so I've never used that cloud before, HOWEVER, in order for my DisneyMoviesAnywhere to connect to my iTunes account so that i can watch the movies I've purchased I have to use that cloud. But of course, everything crashes now. Apparently the iCloud is needed to get my purchased movies from Disney to iTunes.
    SO, I've included the "problem details" when iTunes crashes. (FYI,  I have absolutely no idea how I'm going to find this thread again to see if a support technician has responded. Hopefully they can access my email address from my account and respond to me there.)

    Will iTunes open in safe mode? Hold down CTRL+SHIFT as, or immediately after, you click the icon that starts iTunes and keep holding until you see this prompt.
    Click Continue.
    Assuming iTunes has opened, enable the menu bar, if necessary, with CTRL+B. Go to Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. Press OK, close iTunes, wait until it has had a chance to fully close then reopen.
    Will iTunes open normally now?
    "iTunes in the cloud" is one aspect of Apple's cloud services and gives you access to your qualifying past purchases. Any item in the store can be removed by the rights holders without prior notice at any time, so it is possible that Disney removed the movies you are trying to redownload.

  • Adobe Photoshop Lightroom has stopped working

    Message appears at start up.  It continues - A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.  I have not gotten any Windows notifications.  I have reinstalled Lightroom 5.3, which says it will fix problems.  What type of problems cause this and how to fix?

    System problems / drivers...
    If Lr used to work, try rolling back your system from a backup.
    If not feasible, then try doing hardware checks and updating drivers..
    (maybe sneak a peek in the windows event log).

  • Select "Develop" and "Lightroom has stopped working"

    First off I'm new to Lightroom. I moved up from Elements.
    I upgraded to 3.4 and now when I select "develop" Lightroom stops working.
    Any ideas?
    I'm running windows 7 home 64 bit all updates are current.
    I have a small ssd for a hard drive and therefore removed the old 3.2 directory after the upgrade.
    I have 6gig of memory and an AMD quad core phenom II 3.4GHz.
    I have an Nvidia Gforce GT 430 graphics card driver version 270.61

    From the application event log.
    Windows cannot access the file  for one of the following reasons: there is a problem with the network connection, the disk that the file is stored on, or the storage drivers installed on this computer; or the disk is missing. Windows closed the program Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64-bit because of this error.
    Program: Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64-bit
    File:
    The error value is listed in the Additional Data section.
    User Action
    1. Open the file again. This situation might be a temporary problem that corrects itself when the program runs again.
    2. If the file still cannot be accessed and
    - It is on the network, your network administrator should verify that there is not a problem with the network and that the server can be contacted.
    - It is on a removable disk, for example, a floppy disk or CD-ROM, verify that the disk is fully inserted into the computer.
    3. Check and repair the file system by running CHKDSK. To run CHKDSK, click Start, click Run, type CMD, and then click OK. At the command prompt, type CHKDSK /F, and then press ENTER.
    4. If the problem persists, restore the file from a backup copy.
    5. Determine whether other files on the same disk can be opened. If not, the disk might be damaged. If it is a hard disk, contact your administrator or computer hardware vendor for further assistance.

  • 'Lightroom has stopped Working ' -  Fuji .RAF files - Anyone else?

    I'm  generally enjoying using the Beta version (especially the new Development Sliders) - but while the above error message has occured
    only rarely when processing .CRW RAW files, it occurs most of the time when trying to work with Fuji .RAF RAW files from my X10. Almost any attempted use of the
    Develop Mode causes the program to stop working. My computer has 8GB RAM - Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit and Intel Core Duo 3.06 GHz processor.
    Anybody have any similar issue or comments? No problems occur with my 3.6 Version.
    I am looking forward to the Final Version 4. Thanks for all your know-how and efforts with this program.

    I have a very similar problem with psd files, less frequent with dng.  LR4 is uses 50% of available cpu cycles. System is similar with 6GB memory.

    I have just installed the trial version of lightroom, After thrying to import a new folder, it shut down and gives me this message. I have gotten rid of everything to do with lightroom and reinstalled, still the same pathway comes up at start up and I keep getting the message. I understand it has something to do with the way I tried to bring in the folder, but for now I just really want to try to get this running again.

  • "Lightroom has stopped working" error message

    I recently built a new computer. When I did I had to bring my catalogs from my old hard drive over so that my lightroom was complete. I am currently running lightroom 4.4. I personally think this is a catalog issue but I do not know how to resolve it. The error message comes whenever it seems to want. Sometimes right when I open it, sometimes an hour in, sometimes 10 minutes in.
    When I search lightroom on my computer this what i get:
    There seems to be too many lightroom to me...HELP!

    I'm having what sounds to be the same issue. May I ask what version you were running? I'm using 4.1... And more importantly, have you figured out a solution?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
