I am getting error message: Unexpected error opening catalog.  What should I do

Lightroom started acting slightly strange, not displaying certain images in the folder I was working on, for example.  I shut it down, but when I tried to start it again, it would not open using my normal catalog, and I had the message, "Unexpected error opening catalog".  It does let me open a different catalog, however.  What can I do to get my catalog working again?

  • I keep getting Error 1328.  What should i do?

    Yesterday, i uninstalled reader 10.1.4 because some fonts looked strange on some PDF Files.  Unfortunately, when i tried to re-install, i keep getting error 1328. 
    i am running windows vista and have un-installed all Adobe programs and tried to re-install countless times.  i tried to run cleaner but got an error message about some files being outside of a library.  Any suggestions?

    Ok, here is the test that should (hopefully) tell us what's going wrong during the registration of the authplay.dll file.  Can you try following these steps; if anything is not clear, don't hesitate to ask for clarification.
    download the attached authplay.zip file, unzip it, and move the extracted authplay.dll file to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader10.0\Reader
    start Procmon
    open a Command Prompt and type the following
    cd C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader10.0\Reader
    regsvr32 authplay.dll *
    exit
    in Procmon start filtering (Ctrl+L)
    first click the Reset button to remove anything previously added
    now filter: Process Name is regsvr32.exe
    Add
    OK
    now save (Ctrl+S) the filtered result
    exit Procmon
    The saved file will be named something like Logfile.PML and will be located in the folder where Procmon resides.
    Now upload that logfile to https://files.acrobat.com/ and share the link; see http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1408375 for detailed instructions.
    *) in 3 above, did regsvr32 display an error message?

    The Hardware Test detected a RAM problem.  Take out the chips and make certain that the connections are clean and reinstall them.  Make certain that they are well seated. 
    If the problem occurs again, test with one chip at a time.  Also swap bays if necessary.
    Please indicate if you have installed new RAM and if so what brand and the specifications.
    Ciao.

  • Unexpected error opening catalog after accidentally deleting and recovering catalog file

    I deleted my Lightroom folder by mistake. I have recovered the Lightroom 5 catalog .Ircat file using recovery software but when I try to open it I get the message "Unexpected error opening catalog". Please help!
    I have tried creating a new catalog and importing the .ircat file but I then get told that it is not a valid lightroom catalog.
    I have a lot of photo edits that I really need to recover, I hope someone can help.
    Kind regards, Alex

    Hi Alex,
    I just did the same thing.  What recovery software did you use?? Also, were you ever able to recover your pics?
    Thanks for your help x

  • Unexpected error opening catalog" trying to open a catalog. worked fine 2 days ago. Mac Pro LR5.3

    i am getting "unexpected error opening catalog" message when opening a catalog that worked fine 2 days ago. Other catalogs open on the same drive Mac pro LR5.3  please help.... Lots of worked had gone into that catalog
    thanks
    karl

    Hmm, that is more of a problem!
    Ok, couple of initial things to try:
    1.  Move the catalog to another drive, and try opening it from there.  It's a long shot...
    2.  Create a new catalog and go to File menu > Import from Another Catalog.  Navigate to the problem catalog and try to import a small chunk at a time.

  • Lightroom: LR4 won't open - Unexpected error opening catalog

    I cannot open LR4. I get an, "Unexpected error opening catalog. The catalog could not be opened due to an unexpected error." This occurred after a WIN7 update failed.  It restored the system to an earlier version.  In doing so, it also reverted LR4.2 to LR4.1.  I have seen other threads to open a different catalog and/or create a new.  The problem is that once I go to "Choose a different catalog", I get the Windows screen where I can select my backup.  I select the backup catalog and click "Open".  The window goes away, but the underlying LR "Select a Catalog" window still only shows 1 catalog to open.....my original catalog.  The backup doesn't show up in the list.  (The backup is not a network drive and it is not read-protected.)
    I then try the "Create a new catalog", get the Windows screen, enter a new name and click "Save".  The same thing happens.  The Windows screen goes away and the LR "Select a Catalog" window still shows the orignal catalog in the list.  Thus, I cannot create nor choose a different catalog.  Am I doing something incorrectly?
    Thanks.

    Try right-clicking on the LR icon and selecting "run as administrator". This fixed the problem for me. I think the problem recurs every time Windows gets and update. You can also set LR to always run with admin privaleges on the properties window.

  • Lightroom 5.5 update - unexpected error opening catalog - help needed?

    Hi,
    I updated Lightroom 5.5 to 5.6 (Windows 7). Now, unfortunately I cannot start the LR program at all. The message: "unexpected error opening catalog" pops up. And all the subsequent Options do not work. The Option "choose a Different Catalog" is useless, and the "try again" just as much. And "Exit" seems to work, but increases my frustration.
    Any suggestions?
    Andy

    I had the same issue - after installing Lightroom 5.6 (64 bit version, Windows 8.1) worked for a couple weeks, then I got the unexpected error message this morning. I was going to install a previous version, like 5.5, but it appears Adobe released 5.7 last week so I downloaded the new one and I'm up and running here now! Wish you the best.
