Lightroom 2.4 - Won't display pictures in preview thumbnail and main panel
I've included a picture so you get what i mean?
I'm currently using lightroom 2.4 which i've upgraded from 2.2 (2.2 actually had this problem so i decided to bite the bullet and upgrade but it didn't help my problem). I tried creating a new catalogue, importing a new photo, syncronising the folders, optimising the catalogue and re-installing lightroom 2.4. I also restored my computer to a couple of days ago. I know it worked a couple of days ago so im not sure exactly whats happening here.
I've opened up other photo editing programs to see if i can view the photos and yes I can.
I know in lightroom when i go to print or web or slideshow it will show the picture but I just don't understand what i can do to resolve this problem. I tried searching on google and its driving me up the wall.
I hope someone knows whats going on here!

sorry Ian and kwdaves. yeah I'm using windows vista on my laptop updated to the latest Service pack (2)
I'll have a look at that faq and having said that. for some reason it was on YCC Profiles? that may have been due to me using a pdfcreator program the other day.. I feel stupid i changed it to adobeRGB (1998) as shown in solution 2 on http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/402/kb402376.html
thanks a lot guys. you both helped immensely and I can actually get a good nights rest.
You guys rock
Regards

Does anyone know why all of a sudden any new parent divs I add won't display in browser preview?
yes styles are applied. What does not show up are the container divs - they all have the thin purple borders.
The "Blog Lovers" image shows up but it is inside the #blogindex div - which seems to be invisible because the elements inside #blogindex div are just piled on top of each other. (see below html) This is now happening on all the pages of this site.
(I test a different site in DW and I was able to add divs and borders and content inside divs just fine.)
<!-- start #blogindex -->
<div id="blogindex">
<div id="blog_image1"><img src="images/bloglovers.gif" alt="Blog Lovers" /></div>
<div id="blog_image2"><img src="images/gcblogheader350x70.jpg" alt="Gina Charles Blog" /></div>

I keep getting an error message saying that lightroom encountered an error while reading from its preview cache and needs to quit. Can someone please help me fix this.

Error message on start up "Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit" I uninstalled and downloaded it again and still get the same error. At this rate I won't have any chance to use the 30 day trial period as it simply isn't working. I have see suggestions elsewhere to delete a particular file, but I don't have it. Any ideas?
You need to trash the preview cache. It’s in the main catalog folder.
Delete the folder with the ending Previews.lrdata
The default location for the Lightroom folder is normally Pictures/My Pictures if you did a standard installation.
N.B. do not touch files ending .lrcat -
I get the following window on loading Lightroom 5.7 -
Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit.
Lightroom will attempt to fix this problem next time it launches.
I have tried several restarts, without success. Also reinstalled Lightroom; no joy
Any suggestions?Using your system browser (Windows Explorer or Finder), open the folder that contains your catalog. In Windows it is in your pictures folder and then in a Lightroom folder. Inside of the Lightroom folder you will find another folder that has the extension .lrdata. It will have the same name as your catalog except for the extension. You need to delete that folder, and then start Lightroom again. Lightroom will generate a new previews folder, and you should be back in business.

I just upgraded from LR 5.7.1 to LRCC a couple of days ago. After working with a collection of images in Lightroom CC, this message popped up: "Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit." What do I need to do to remedy this? Thanks!
Quit Lightroom
Then trash the preview cache. It’s in the main catalog folder.
Delete the folder with the ending Previews.lrdata
The default location for the Lightroom folder is normally Pictures/My Pictures if you did a standard installation.
Re-launch Lightroom after deleting the Previews folder.

Error Launching LR 5: "Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit. Lightroom will attempt to fix this problem the next time it launches."
I've tried renaming my catalog.lrcat file. I've copied over my most recent backup of the catalog.lrcat and that didn't work either.On Mac:
PS - to open the previews "folder" (a "package" is just a "special" folder) on Mac, ctrl-click and choose "Show package contents.." - same way you open any other special folder, like .app or .lrplugin..

when my lightroom opens up I keep getting an error message that states, "Lightroom encountered an error whne reading from its preview cache and needs to quit" I have relaunched it a number of times and keep getting the same message. Any thoughts on how to fix this?
You need to delete your preview cache and have Lightroom rebuild it. Cache location can be found here.

I recently updated my HP laptop's OS from WIndows8 to WIndows8.1. When I went attempted to open Lightroom5 I got the following message:
"Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit. "
"Lightroom will attempt to fix the problem the next time it launches"
Every time I relaunch I get the same message. I'd like to understand what might be causing the problem so I can remedy and get back to my photo editing. Any clue as to how to fix this problem would be greatly appreciated.

i upgraded from lightroom 4 to lightroom 5 and installed it on a separate hard drive. Initially had no problems util my computer crashed due to the failure of the drive on which Lightroom 5 was installed. Since having my computer rectified, i am unable to use lightroom 5 getting the message "lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit"
I can still use lightroom 4, however, i get the same message when i try to backup the catalog. This occurs during the optimisation phase of backup.
I suspect it is related to Lightroom 5 creating a catalog from the Lightroom 4 files and cannot now locate those files or that they have been corrupted.
Would appreciate any solutions / suggestions.You need to delete your preview cache and have Lightroom rebuild it. Cache location can be found here.

You don't delete a file, you have to delete a folder. Is that what you did?
If you deleted the folder specified above, and you still get the message, then it's the wrong folder. Use your operating system's search function and find ALL folders on ALL disks whose name ends with Previews.LRDATA, delete each one found, and then try opening Lightroom. -

"Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit. Lightroom will attempt to fix this problem the next time it lauches". What do I do? I get the msg each time I try to open it.
It isn't a file, it's a folder. It will have the same name as your catalog, but will have the extension data. It will be in the same folder along with your catalog. If you need to use the search feature to search for *.lrdata.

Every time I open lightroom I get a pop up message saying "Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit" and it closes. Ive already tried reinstalling, nothing seems to work. Help please!
Open the folder containing your catalog. In that folder you will find another folder with the extension .lrdata, and you need to delete that folder. After you do that, Lightroom should start normally and will create a new preview cache.
