Lightroom 1.3 Catalog froze while doing a task and has vanished

Can anyone shed some light on why my Lightroom catalog froze on my Macbook Pro while doing a task and then was no where to be found upon booting up?! It was a small catalog and I had not backed it up. I guess I will make sure to back up the catalog every day from now on. Is it possible for Lightroom to crash and to lose the entire catalog just like that?

Pretty much no. What task was underway? What's in your LR folder? Did you have no backup at all? BTW, you may find your catalog is where it should be, but possibly your LR Prefs file is florfenated. Delete it, then double click on the library file to launch.

  • HT204266 I lost iphoto while doing an erase and reload,  I just had to buy it again?

    Hi
    While doing a 'wipe and reload' as advised by a genius at Southampton Store,  I managed to lose a whole raft of stuff because my back up to time capsule decided it didnt want to let me restore.  I have recovered most of the stuff but seem to have lost iphoto.  It was very important to me so I went online and bought it again.   I believe that as I had it already, that I should have been able to reload it without paying. Is there any way I can obtain a refund please?
    Next question:   all the same applies to iWeb as well and I am trying to find it online, but the Apple site seems to have everything related to iWeb but not the actual program.  
    I really do need to recover these two programs.   I have iphoto (big relief)  and just would like to get my pennies back, and I believe it is probably only my own lack of knowledge that is preventing me from finding iWeb to download.  Previous advice gratefully received told me not to download from any other sites, so that is a rule I am following.
    Any advice most gratefully received please
    Many thanks

    You did not initially purchase it. Pre-order in iTunes means that they are reserving the content for you at that price. The link below is an article on how pre-orders work with iTunes. When you pre- order an album in iTunes it just means its reserving it at that price, since the price may change. When the album is available and released, iTunes will automatically download it should you have enough store credit on the account or a valid credit card on the account.

  • My Apple TV does not work and has never worked.

    My Apple TV does not work and has never worked. I replaced it twice and replaced my router and DSL modem but no luck. I spent hours on tech support with both apple and my ISPs with no luck. Any ideas? Is the Apple TV a donation to apple? I have had the device for 8 months but it will not work for longer than 15 minutes before it drops with network errors. All of my other devices work perfectly on the network including 2 iPads, laptops and an old wii. I love apple products and this is the first real disappointment I have had. The Apple TV seems like a major dud of a product.

    Seems unlikely you have had two faulty replacements, and more likely that there may be some network compatibility issue or problem with reception in the location the AppleTV lies - anything close to it that might be interfering?
    I am assuming you are connected via wifi - if you can try an ethernet connection to rule wifi issues out.
    Could you try it at somone else's house maybe?  If it worked there it would point to something specific at your location.
    You could try replacing it again I guess or seeing if they can offer you credit or a refund.

    by reset option do you mean the DFU restore? worked for me, have you tried that?
    if not - hold the lock and home button until the power down bar comes up. then hold the lock button for ten seconds - next continue to hold the lock button and press the home button for ten seconds - next release the lock button and hold the home button for 10 seconds. this should be done with the phone tethered. If done right and your itunes is configured as such, the phone will reload the drivers and start up itunes, and then prompt for a restore/update.

    Hi All,

    Re: Combining DELETE and INSERT statements in JDBC receiver
    In the above link its shows for single mapping. In my scenario I am using multi mapping for collecting idocs in BPM. If I configured for normal mapping then it is working fine(Deleting existing records and Inserting new record). Whenever I am using multi mapping then I am getting following error in the receiver JDBC communication channel u201CError while parsing or executing XML-SQL document: Error processing request in sax parser: No 'action' attribute found in XML document (attribute "action" missing or wrong XML structure)u201D . Can you please tell me what might be the problem.

    Hi !
    check this out:
    JDBC - No 'action' attribute found in XML document - error
    JDBC receiver adapter: No 'action' attribute found in XML document
    It appears that the inbound payload (the one that is going from XI to the JDBC adapter) does not have the requiered tag to specify which SQL action to execute in the receiver system. Maybe the multimapping is not creating the desired output message format.

  • How do I improve performance while doing pull, push and delete from Azure Storage Queue

           
    Hi,
    I am working on a distributed application with Azure Storage Queue for message queuing. queue will be used by multiple clients across the clock and thus it is expected that it would be heavily loaded most on the time in usage. business case is typical as in
    it pulls message from queue, process the message then deletes the message from queue. this module also sends back a notification to user indicating process is complete. functions/modules work fine as in they meet the logical requirement. pretty typical queue
    scenario.
    Now, coming to the problem statement. since it is envisaged that the queue would be heavily loaded most of the time, I am pushing towards to speed up processing of the overall message lifetime. the faster I can clear messages, the better overall experience
    it would be for everyone, system and users.
    To improve on performance I did multiple cycles for performance profiling and then improving on the identified "HOT" path/function.
    It all came down to a point where only the Azure Queue pull and delete are the only two most time consuming calls outside. I can further improve on pull, which i did by batch pulling 32 message at a time (which is the max message count i can pull from Azure
    queue at once at the time of writing this question.), this returned me a favor as in by reducing processing time to a big margin. all good till this as well.
    i am processing these messages in parallel so as to improve on overall performance.
    pseudo code:
    //AzureQueue Class is encapsulating calls to Azure Storage Queue.
    //assume nothing fancy inside, vanila calls to queue for pull/push/delete
    var batchMessages = AzureQueue.Pull(32); Parallel.ForEach(batchMessages, bMessage =>
    //DoSomething does some background processing;
    try{DoSomething(bMessage);}
    catch()
    //Log exception
    AzureQueue.Delete(bMessage);
    With this change now, profiling results show that up-to 90% of time is only taken by the Azure Message delete calls. As it is good to delete message as soon as processing is done, i remove it just after "DoSomething" is finished.
    what i need now is suggestions on how to further improve performance of this function when 90% of the time is being eaten up by the Azure Queue Delete call itself? is there a better faster way to perform delete/bulk delete etc?
    with the implementation mentioned here, i get speed of close to 25 messages/sec. Right now Azure queue delete calls are choking application performance. so is there any hope to push it further.
    Does it also makes difference in performance which queue delete call am making? as of now queue has overloaded method for deleting message, one which except message object and another which accepts message identifier and pop receipt. i am using the later
    one here with message identifier nad pop receipt to delete message from queue.
    Let me know if you need any additional information or any clarification in question.
    Inputs/suggestions are welcome.
    Many thanks.

    The first thing that came to mind was to use a parallel delete at the same time you run the work in DoSomething.  If DoSomething fails, add the message back into the queue.  This won't work for every application, and work that was in the queue
    near the head could be pushed back to the tail, so you'd have to think about how that may effect your workload.
    Or, make a threadpool queued delete after the work was successful.  Fire and forget.  However, if you're loading the processing at 25/sec, and 90% of time sits on the delete, you'd quickly accumulate delete calls for the threadpool until you'd
    never catch up.  At 70-80% duty cycle this may work, but the closer you get to always being busy could make this dangerous.
    I wonder if calling the delete REST API yourself may offer any improvements.  If you find the delete sets up a TCP connection each time, this may be all you need.  Try to keep the connection open, or see if the REST API can delete more at a time
    than the SDK API can.
    Or, if you have the funds, just have more VM instances doing the work in parallel, so the first machine handles 25/sec, the second at 25/sec also - and you just live with the slow delete.  If that's still not good enough, add more instances.

  • Unique Key Violation While Doing Multiple Updates And Create in EJB

    Hello All,
    I am using oracle 9i and Weblogic 7.0. I have a table that has a unique key constraint on one column , say 'Col1' and i am using a CMP to read,create and update data in this table. The problem description is as follows.
    I have JTable that display the data from the above said table. The user can modify the existing data and insert new data that will be reflected in the DB using the CMP. Let us say the following are displayed
    ROW1
    Col1 : 3
    Col2 : 'ABC'
    Col3 : 1 (Primary key in the table)
    Now the user modifies the above row and inserts a new record. Now the following will be the display
    ROW1 (Modified)
    Col1 : 4
    Col2 : 'ABC'
    Col3 : 1 (Primary key in the table)
    ROW2 (New)
    Col1 : 3
    Col2 : 'DEF'
    Col3 : 2 (Primary key in the table)
    When the above data is saved i do the following in the Code
    a) Session Bean
    For (all the data in the Jtable)
    try
    home.findByPrimaryKey(Col3);
    remote.update(Col1,Col2);
    catch(FinderException fe)
    home.create(Col1,Col2,Col3);
    When the above code is run During the first loop the update runs succesfully (i.e update old value of 3 with 4 ) but during the 2nd loop the create (i.e Insert new value 3) gives me the unique key violated exception. The following is the stack trace

    Please help me with this, as far as i am concerned since both update and create is in the same transaction the update on the row must be visible to the create and hence there shouild not be any problem.....
    thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Thanks,
    There are 3 columns involved with that table . Out of whihc one is a Primary Key (string) , The other column (Number) has a unique key constraint defined on it and the last column stores a value corresponding to the 2nd column.
    The reason for me to do a create in the Finder exception is as follows.
    I Loop through the Data present in JTable. As given in the example let us assume that there are 2 rows in the JTable. Out of whihc the First row needs an updation and the second row , which is a new row needs to be created. So During the First iteration of the loop, The findermethod does not throw any exception (Because it is a modfied row) and hence the update gets fired successfully. During the second iteration , since it is a new row the findermethod will throw a finder exception and hence create will get fired.
    I understand that this is not a good coding style but then it is not 100% wrong and i need to find out as to why it is not working.
    Hope am clear in explaining my problem
    Thanks

    Thanks in advance,

    If you have any SELECT FOR UPDATE in your code, these will produce locks, and it will not be released until the session which has locked the record has released it. This can be one reason why you have this behavior.
    you need to trail your code if it's explicitly locking a row or more.

  • 10.4.11 install does not finish and has hosed MS Word and Excel

    My install of 10.4.11 got almost all the way through on the progress bar and up popped a message indicating there was an error. It placed the package in the trash and said to try from finder.
    It must have overwritten some files before it blew up, because now I can't start Word or Excel. I get the following message:
    The application "Word" could not be launched because of a shared library error: "<Microsoft Word><Microsoft Word><CarbonLib>"
    Looks like Apple is having some quality assurance issues.

    I had the same problem. I let the gear spin and let it do its "thing" but it seemed to just be in a loop.
    I cranked up the rev A imac (1998), went to this board and saw that others were having the same problem. I did a force restart and everything went well. I checked the installer logs (in the system profile) and it showed what all had been installed and updated and at what time. Apparently, everything was updated in just a few minutes. It's the completion of the restart process that is messed, not the update itself. Hence, no restart sound initially. Surprised apple hasn't caught this sooner before unleashing. I also tried checking for software update, which also cross-refs currently installed items, for safe measure and it said its up to date. Safari appears to have gone from 3.03 to 3.04 and out of beta for mac and windows is still in beta. The optimizing seems to have made things a bit snappier which is nice. I will post more info as I get it. Hope this helps.
