I am unable to access my LR5.7 Catalog of my recent holiday. I am running Windows 7 (64Bit) and recently installed and then uninstalled DxO Optics Pro. The error message says it "cannot be opened because another application already has it opened.Quit the other copy of Lightroom before trying to launch" The problem is, that I can only see one copy of LR5 open and cannot locate the ".lrcat.lock" file for the specific catalog I want to open. I have tried re-booting my computer, but this did not work.
Thanks Geoff. I was finally able to locate the ".lrcat.lock" file relevant to the catalog I want to open. Once I deleted it, LR5 was able to access my images. Problem solved. THANK YOU

Lightroom 3 cannot open because another application already has it opened.
Lightroom 3 cannot open because another application already has it opened. I received this confirmation after sending photo files to my E Book. Please help.
Look in the folder where your catalog is and remove the file with a .lock extension. That should do the trick. The file is to prevent two openings of the same catalog and is usually left when Lightroom is closed incorrectly.

I just downloaded Ilife 9 and now my Iphoto doesn't open. The error message says: You cannot open your library using this version. Quit and use the older version. What can I do?
iLife '09 is not available as a download - it is only available as a purchase
iLife '11 is available as a DVD purchase and the compoments of it are available from the App Store (iPhoto '11 (version 9.1.5), etc)
Exactly what did you do? And exactly what does the error message say?
On the surface it appears that you are attemptying to open a new library with an older version (iPhoto '09 can not open an iPhoto '11 library for example)

I can't open a catalogue because it says that another application already has it opened.
I am using Lightroom 4. I have been working on one catalogue & then switched to another. Everytime I try to open the first catalogue it say it is already open by another application. It is not open anywhere else. I have obviously rebooted my PC but the same error comes up. I can go to the backup of the catalogue, but I have done a lot of work on the images since then. Can someone please help?
With Lightroom closed down, use Explorer to browse to the folder that contains the catalog that you are trying to open. In that folder, alongside the catalog, should be a file that has the same name as the catalog with the addition of a ".lock" extension. This is the lock file that is created every time you open a catalog and is supposed to be deleted when you close that catalog. If it already exists when you try to open the catalog, you get the problem that you are experiencing. So, if that "lock" file is there, simply delete it (making absolutely certain you delete the file ending in ".lock" only). Then you should be able to start Lightroom and open that catalog.

Lightroom cannot open catalog becouse another application already has it open.
I aget a message that another application has the catolog open but I ahve no idea what has it open. Any idaes on how to figure out what program has it open?
This message is probably due to the fact that the so-called "lock-file" has not been deleted when you last exited Lr.
In your OS (Mac Finder / Win Explorer) open the folder that contains the Lr catalog. If you don't know where it is, see here for your OS: http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/preference-file-locations-lightroom-4.html
The Lr catalog is the file ending with < .lrcat>. Don't touch that one. But see if there is just besides it another file with the ending <lrcat.lock>. This is the so-called lock-file that prevents that Lr can be opened in more than one instances. It should be present when Lr is open but should not be there when Lr is closed.
If you see this lock-file while Lr is closed, send it to the Trash-Bin / Recycle Bin, i.e. delete it. You should then be able to open Lr. -

Hopefuly it works for you too!
Good luck! -
Yeah, so I keep getting that error message. The thing is that the service IS running, and it's set to "automatic". I've reinstalled every shred of Apple software on my PC, I've updated my virus software, and yet it still isn't working. I'm at a dead end here, so any help would be great.
I FIXED IT! Oh sweet Jesus Mary and Bob....
So after much scouring of the Googles, I found that the source of the problem was a little program called FoxyProxy Video Utility. It was causing various Windows services to crash--AMDS being the most noticeable. I uninstalled that program and PRESTO, my iPod shows up on iTunes! -

My iPhoto says it is in use by another application or has become unreadable. Nothing I have done is working? I've tried restarting my compuer, holding down the command and option keys as I open it and have tried downloading another version of the iPhoto..
See if you can do the following:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button,
navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost.
Note: your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

After following the instructions to completly uninstall iTunes and related components, I restarted computerand reinstalled iTunes, Then I received the error message that iTunes couldn't load because program file Apple Application Support (deleted as per instructions) wasn't present. What now?
With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.) -
