Lightroom 2.3 won't re-launch when beginning a new catalogue

I am on Windows XP for home use and when I hit File/New Collection and I name the collection, Lightroom is supposed to relaunch itself.  Mine cannot re-launch.  I have upgraded Lightroom 2.3.
Has anyone else had this problem?  Should I re-install the original 2.0 version?

Keyplayer - if I understand your post you are choosing File/New Collection NOT File/New Catalog.  If you create a new collection Lightroom will not relaunch.  It is only when you create a new CATALOG that Lightroom closes and relaunches the new catalog.  I hope this clears up the confusion.

  • After updating to Lightroom CC 2015, it will not launch when i click on the icon.

    After updating to Lightroom CC 2015, it will not launch when I click on the icon. A window gets up: "__crtCreateSymbolicLinkW" not found in DLL "MSVCR110.dll". Same failure occurs when I start Photoshop CC.
    LR 5.7.1  Starts without Problem.

    Have you tried logging out of your CC desktop app, then logging back in again? Quit/Restart won't work, but logging out and back in should. See here: https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/sign-in-out-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html

  • Itunes won't auto launch when iPhone 3gs is conncected

    Hi there. My itunes on my MacBook Pro was working fine - it can sync and launch when my iPhones 3gs connected to it. But, it doesn't after I updated the iTunes to version 9.2.
    It doesn't detect my iPhone or iPod when it's connect to my MacBook Pro. (despite of unlimited reinstalling my os x and reinstalling of my iTunes. It's only I did a proper uninstall my iTunes (following the apple's instruction), then it could detect my iPhone.
    Now, it doesn't auto launch whenever I've connected my iPhone to my MacBook Pro. In iTunes' Preference, the option on 'Prevent iPods, iPhones, iPads from syncing automatically is "unchecked'. Why???

    when your iPhone is connected, go to the summary tab. there should be this option

  • Lightroom 5.2 - catogue is corrupt and wont save a new catalogue

    Got the <Unexpected error opening catalogue> dialog when starting Lightroom 5.2.  Will not allow me to save a new catalogue. Deleted old catalogue thinking that might prompt Lightroom to create a new catalogue or allow me to create and save a new one. Create Folder with New Catalogue allows me to enter a new catalogue name but then Select Catalogue dialog box is empty. Program wont open!

    Update - I deleted Ligtroom 5.2 and reinstalled 5. Undeleted my previously deleted catalogue and it now everything seems to work. The catalogue contains about 200 images or so when I briefly started Lightroom 5.2 for the very first time a few days ago. So whats the problem with 5.2? Do I dare upgrading again?
    I am a Lightroom newbie so these first impressions are very disappointing. I have spent 4+ hours on this - I previously used Elements from V3 to V10 with absolutely no problems.
    Any ideas would be welcome. Is this a bug in 5.2 or was i just unluckly with a random instal error?
    Absolutely underwhelmed by the response to date. How do I get official Adobe help or does it not exist?

  • How come you cant sync walks to the nike plus app? People have to start somewhere when beginning a new exercise program and would like to track my progress just as much as runners do! Anyone know when they are gonna start letting this happen?

    I only walk because of back surgery and knee issues and I really want to track my progress on Nike Plus to encourage me to do better and it only syncs runs.

  • Lightroom Mobile iPhone won't import complete camera roll. Why?

    Several re-installs and crashes later, I'm still not able to bring in 900 images from my iPhone 5s' camera roll.
    Though there are something like 900 photos and videos, LR mobile only brings in about 250. And when I browse the thumbnails for those 250, many of them are just black boxes. And that was my *best* result. Earlier attempts resulted in LR crashing during the import process, with "delete and reinstall" being my only option. Even manual one by one imports after the initial import attempt of the camera roll don't seem to be working.
    I was so excited by the LR mobile sync, but the majority of my iOS photos are on my phone. Would love to get this working!

    Could you try the import after  a "Delete Data" via Lightroom Preferences->Lightroom Mobile and a resign-in.
    When you add new photos to your mobile device, Lr mobile needs to import the photos locally and send previews+metadata to the back-end. It seems that some of this data was not send.
    If you still see the issue while processing the import could you trigger a diagnostic log.
    The Lr Mobile app log can be triggered when you open up the settings and long press the to LR Icon a diagnostic log will be generated and attached to your local mail client.
    Send me a LR Desktop diagnostig log  - best as a private message with a downloadable dropbox link.
    You can trigger the log via LR Desktop prefereneces -> Lightroom Mobile and when you hold down the alt key you will notice a generate diagnostic log button

  • When should I start a new catalogue?

    I have 21,000 images on an external hard drive that is now fill.  I am adding a new external drive.  I am using Lightroom 4.1.  Is it better to start a new catalogue or should I continue with my exsisting catalogue and just load the photos to a new location?

    hundin06-
    i think it really depends on the user like Rikk Flohr said above.
    here is a useful link on singe vs. multiple catalogs:

  • Lightroom 1.1 won't launch upon registration

    Hi everyone,
    My name is Janyne and I was hoping someone here could help me with a problem I am running into with Lightroom 1.1 on a mac G4 osx 10.5.8. I have installed this old version of lightroom because my computer doesn't have intel and i needed the older version in order for it to work on my very old computer.
    I installed Lightroom and it won't launch after the registration page. I put in all my information and serial number and it gives me a green check then i click finish and nothing happens. No highlightable options in my menu bar either.
    I have tried the newer lightroom versions on trials but i decided to go with this old 1.1 to ensure that my computer was capable of running it well.
    Any one have any technical support they could offer me on this ? I have some photos already in a library somewhere in my computer but i wouldn't know where to look to find it or any other lightroom files that could be getting in the way of my program launching.
    This sucks, Please help.
    Thank you,
    Janyne

    You need to reinstall iPhoto as it's missing bits of itself.
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

    Running Lightroom 6 on Windows machine (after having upgraded from LR5... While attempting to add or change music in the Slideshow module, LR unexpectedly quits.  After several attempts at this, LR6 won't even launch properly...shows the splash screen but that's it.  The program is buggy...need an update/revision quickly!!

    If you're on Windows, check out a free program called Audacity--it's fantastic.  With Audacity the process of converting a 48.000 kHz to 44.100 kHz is as simply as opening, changing the sample rate, and then exporting again, as an MP3.

    Yes, this did solve the problem.  But I had some trouble updating QuickTime.  It failed, with the installer complaining that it did not have the required permissions to install the files it needed in the program directory.  I got it to work by telling it to install the files to another directory.  All seems well now - Thanks!

    Why won't Lightroom 4.4 recognize my Nikon D600 when attempting to use Tethered Capture?  However, Lightroom recognizes the camera otherwize.

    I just checked the list of cameras supported for tethered shooting, and the D7000 is on the list of supported cameras. So perhaps it's time for you to double check your camera settings to make sure it is set up for tethered shooting.

  • ITunes won't launch when iPod/iPad connected

    going nuts! My iTunes will not launch when i connect my ipod or ipad. the setting to allow this is greyed out as is the option 'sync only ticked itmes'. I have uninstalled and installed iTunes several times. Changed as many settings as I can and back again. iMatch is on but that is causing me no end of grief too. Tried turning it off but that makes not difference. I can't copy a play list to ipod as it says iMatch is turned on on the iPod - it isn't!

    Is the conmpouter authoris for the iTuens account?
    Did you sync with this computer the last time?

  • Dvd player won't launch when dvd inserted

    DVD player has become erratic about launching when I insert a commercial video disc. Sometimes it launches, and sometimes the disc is simply ejected after about a minute, without DVD Player having launched. There's no error message, the disc is simply ejected. When this has happened, I've tried things like repairing permissions, logging out and logging back in, and restarting. These work sometimes, and sometimes not.
    Actually, I'm not sure if the problem is with DVD Player, since the disc is not showing up in Finder, either.
    Anybody have any suggestions?

    and....when i put in a movie dvd it works but not a dvd with files. Help?

  • Another Lightroom CC that won't Launch

    Logging out and in doesn't work. Uninstalling/reinstalling doesn't work. Using the Adobe clean install /CCleaner doesn't work.
    Lightroom 5.7 and Photoshop run fine. Running Windows 7 SP1. 

    After trying almost everything with no luck I decided to just reinstall Windows and now it works. It's not an ideal solution by any means but I needed to get this to work.  Hopefully someone will figure out a less drastic fix.
