Lightroom 2 Freezing and Export to CS3 solution
Ever since I've had LR2 I have suffered random freezing and being unable to export to CS3.
I worked through the solutions in the knowledge base and found that by removing Skype from my start-up list, both problems have been cured.
Hope this is of use to others.
Thanks, Graham. Your O/S?

Lightroom freezes when exporting catalog
Hello, I have lightroom 5.7, I use an iMac OSX 10.9.5. When I export my entire collection 40,000.00 images and catalog to another external hard drive, lightroom freezes in mid session. Last night I updated to OS X 10.10.1 Thank you!
How do you go to the Web Module? Do you go from the grid with all your images, potentially hundreds to thousands of images or do you first make a Collection of you chosen images, More likely to be tens to maybe couple hundred of images.
If the former, LR maybe hanking on the renderign of so many images to what ever initial template Web is set for.
Best to do a selection of images to a Collection First. What happens if you go to Web with a Collecion of say, 50 images?

1000's of keywords imported - Lightroom Freezes and burns CPU
I imported approx 7000 keywords (most with hierarchical synonyms and some with sub-keywords). In other words a BIG keyword collection.
Now I cannot use Lightroom. When I start it it becomes non-responsive (Windows XP) while burning huge amounts of CPU. I have LOST ACCESS TO MY IMAGE COLLECTION!
Please, please, can someone tell me how to delete ALL KEYWORDS outside of Lightroom, so that when I start it it will be usable again?
I have searched my hard disk an cannot locate any files corresponding to "keywords".Well, I discovered some things which may be of interest - but no actual solution.
First, I bypassed the problem completely by going back to my last "pre-keyword" catalog backup, then importing the 2 days of image files (including XMP sidecars). This gave me back a responsive Lightroom, with all my (meta)data.
Regarding Lightroom's keywords, I found that they are stored in a table in the catalog, which is actually a SQLite database. The table name is AgLibraryTag. You can install SQLite, then run it on the lrdb file:
sqlite> .schema AgLibraryTag
CREATE TABLE AgLibraryTag (
id_local INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
id_global UNIQUE NOT NULL,
changeEpoch INTEGER,
dateCreated NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
flattenedParams,
folderInfoCache,
genealogy NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
imageCountCache DEFAULT -1,
kindName NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
lastApplied,
name,
parent INTEGER,
sortDirection,
sortOrder
doing a "select * from..." on this table gives a dump of all my keywords. So...I figured that emptying this table as follows might solve the problem, given that I hadn't actually assigned any keywords to any images:
sqlite> delete from AgLibraryTag;
sqlite> select * from AgLibraryTag;
sqlite> vacuum;
sqlite> .exit
WRONG! Lightroom loads, but all my folder information is lost.
I gave up and worked around the problem as noted above, but if anyone from Adobe reads this - you NEED to provide a way to delete large numbers of keywords. If a reasonably high-end WinTel laptop chokes on 7000 keywords then this is NOT usable software. -
I am helping a friend with her lightroom issues
She is using Lightoom 3.4.1 with Windows Vista Home Premium SP2. When she attempts to do an export, it gets a random amount through the export and the lightroom stops responing and closes. I tried the basic things (clearing temp files and such). I also tried exporting to a different hard drive, but it is the same result.Does it happen with no matter what setings you use for export? Like Export for Email, Export to DNG etc.?
What if you use File > Export with Preset..? -
Lightroom freezing and acting up
Lightroom is constantly freezing. I've installed the latest updates, but it appears to continue to act up. It no longer shows where I've added brush strokes to my images. It also displays the picture's file name in big white letters at the top right of the image, which is just really annoying, mostly because I can't figure out how to get it off. The biggest problem is the freezing. It freezes so bad that I have to force my computer to shut down.
Can anyone help me fix lightroom, the brush issue and file name display issue?
Thank you
Oh, and the latest update I installed was lightroom 4.4. I also have a windows computer.H will hide or unhide the "pins" for your brushing.
Letter I (eye) will cycle through different display options for the text in the corner of the photo (but on my computer its on the left, not on the right)
Frequent freezes/crashes are usually not Lightroom but an operating system or hardware issue. Could be any one of a gazillion things. I would start by making sure your video driver is up to date. -
Lightroom freezing and forcing me to restart my Mac
Every time I use lightroom (I have tried many different catalogs, catalogs on different hard drives, etc.) and I keep getting the "death screen" where it turns gray like a curtain faling from top to bottom, and says i must restart my computer. I have a Mac Pro, quad-core, barely 3 years old (if even) and this just started recently. I have used the F1 key trick when restarting, I have re-installed LR several times, to no avail. Help!!!!
BSD process name corresponding to current thread: Google Chrome He
If you must use Chrome, download either the very latest version or the newest builds of the beta version. There are problems with Chrome and your Intel 4000 GPU that have beenn documented here and all over the Internet. The very latest version is supposed to fix the problem. Also make sure that you have the latest Software Update, released yesterday, for your machine.
Then follow Bimmer's instructions. I'll bet that you're problems will be solved by updating Chrome, making sure that you have the latest software updates available, and following Bimmer's guides.
Good luck,

I'm trying to export my Aperture masters to use in Lightroom, can't get the ratings to export. Tried writing the IPTC data to the masters and adding the IPTC4XMP file when exporting, neither worked. The ratings show up in Lightroom if I export the versions. These are all .jpg's that I am exporting. Any ideas on how to fix this?
ThanksThere are two problems here:
1) Aperture does not modify its "original" files on export. Meaning with the JPEG files that Aperture will NOT modify them, and it will not write IPTC data to them. It exports the XMP sidecar files, as you're seeing.
2) Adobe will NOT read IPTC sidecar files for non-RAW images. So if it sees a JPEG file, it will not look for an XMP sidecar file. It just doesn't read them, so the data won't be imported by Lightroom.
If you are using JPEG files, then probably the solution is to check the box in Aperture to tell it to write XMP metadata to the original files. They're not RAW files, so they're not proprietary in any way, so writing the XMP metadata to the JPEG files is probably pretty safe. -
How can I export the very cool Lightroom Map and link to the photos which show on the map?
How can I export the very cool Lightroom Map and link to the photos which show on the map?
I love the way Lightroom imported my .gpx files, automatically geocoded the photos, and show where I took them on the map.
Would love to export this lovely map and the photos which have been geocoded to the map.
Anyone know how to export this as an HTML file I can import into my web site.
I'm a Realtor in Berkeley, and integration of the elegant map and the photos. It would be perfect way to show my clients where the homes are, and what they look like.
IraYou probably didn't get an answer because none exists within Lightroom.
You can perform a screen caputre of the Lightroom map, and use the resulting JPG/GIF of your screen, however there is no way to hyperlink the point on the map to your photos.
You might want to consider a non-Lightroom solution, such as uploading the photos to an Album on Flickr (or one of many other photo sharing web sites) and using the mapping capabilites there, which would be hyperlinked to your photos, see example below. You can use Lightroom to geotag the photos and then use Lightroom to upload to Flickr (or other web site) and then use the web site to create and display the map -
Exported movies freeze and won't play.
Whenever exporting an iMovie project, (i'm using iMovie HD, although I do have iMovie '08, and if i'm correct, the problem started when I tried using iMovie '08.) the finished movie's video will always freeze about halfway through, while the audio will continue to play. This happens regardless of what I am exporting it as (mpeg, .mov, .avi, etc.). Anybody else have this problem and/or know what to do about it?
I have had that problem, and worse in that it wouldn't export at all, if my iMovie is composed of many, many clips or has many added audio clips.
My solution is to 'share' as quicktime, full-quality, resulting in a quicktime movie of my iMovie. I then open a new iMovie project, import this new quicktime movie and export that back to my camcorder. It works perfectly!
I also will use the new iMovie with the quicktime movie in iDVD if my original iMovie stutters or skips on playback.
You will have to redo chapter markers as they do not 'share' to quicktime.
The only caution is that you need enough free drive space to create the quicktime movie. It should be smaller in GB size than the original iMovie as it keeps only the footage actually in the timeline. If the quicktime version plays ok, you can delete the original iMovie. -
Freezing and resetting solution, playlists the culprit, take a look Apple
Hi there, I've had a major issue with my 160gb ipod classic from day 1.
I've got a 140g music library on my PC and I've not been able to sync it to the ipod because of freezing and resetting problems.. until today.
When I first tried to sync my whole music library the ipod crashed as soon as I disconnected it. I had to restore the ipod and soon learned to sync my music in 10gb chunks. Only trouble was the ipod would work fine as long as I only synced 70-80gb of music, which is half the ipod's capacity. If I tried to add any more music the ipod would eventually go into the freezing and resetting loop and I'd have to restore it and start again.
I know other users on here have had similar problems. Firmware 1.1 and itunes 7.6 did not fix the issue for me. I know that my mp3 files are not the problem because if I split my music library into two 70gb chunks I could sync either chunk without problems, it was only when I tried to sync them all...
Through lots of trial and error, such as reinstalling OS, reinstalling itunes, rebuilding library, scanning mp3 files for errors I have eventually found out what was causing my problem.
I have 100s of pretty complex smart playlists, they are heavily nested and dependant on other playlists. I've got them all organised into folders for easier navigating. This was one of the reasons I couldn't wait for the ipod classic to come out because my playlist folders would at last be recognised on the ipod. I recently added a pretty big playlist tree for playing songs from a given year and noticed that itunes got even more sluggish than usual!
I looked at my library file and it had grown to nearly 100mb. As an experiment I backed up my library file first than deleted all of my playlists. The size of the library file reduced to 34mb. I decided to try and sync more music onto my ipod without the playlists... and would you believe it I've been able to sync my whole music libary to my ipod for the first time - no freezing and no resetting!
I would hazard a guess that the ipod classic firmware currently has an issue syncing lots of complex, nested playlists. I've fed this back to apple and hope they can come up with a solution. I hope it's not an issue related to the reduced size of the RAM in the new ipods, otherwise there will never be a solution!
As it stands I'm gonna really simplify my playlists and keep my fingers crossed. I love playlists, they're a massive part of the whole ipod experience for me so scaling them back will be a real trade off but if it stops the resetting problems I'll have to do it. This is working for me so far so good luck to everyone else who has been having similar problems.

thank you so much for this information. I can not tell you, how helpful your posting is.
I had exactly the same problem, and I did follow your instructions - and for the first time in almost 3 month (and after hours and hours spent on my computer to try to resolve this problem), I am able to utilize the full capacity of my 160 GB iPod Classic.
It is very unfortunate, that I am currently not able to utilize my Folders and Playlists (just like you, I have hundreds of them which are a huge part of the iPod Experience), but at one point, my iPod was no longer able to start up and got stuck in a 're-boot' loop. After removing my most complex smart playlists, the problem disappeared (I did not remove them from iTunes, but I no longer synch them to my iPod).
So again, thanks for posting this information, and thanks for contacting Apple. I really hope, that this issue will be resolved in the next Firmware release.
FYI for anybody else who might read this post : Using the Tinker Tool (free download) makes it very easy to monitor/view the hidden files on your iPod. -
Error message: "Warning: unresponsive script". Afterward, the system freezes and will then crash. Crash reports have been submitted many, many times without response. I have tried the fore-mentioned solutions with either no results or very bad results which I filed a report but did not receive an answer. The application to block scripts actually worsened the problem and I could not correct the situation for a while (no response from Firefox, at all). I have also been through this procedure without any one contacting me, AT ALL.
== URL of affected sites ==
http://http://www.facebook.com (always) and www.YouTube.com (sometimes)There does appear to be any support whatsoever from mighty "non caring" FIREFOX & people are getting fed up. We may as well try another system, if they can't be bothered to provide any support for their system, we can't be bothered to use their system.

Premiere CC freeze on export and sometimes during rendering
I have a small project which has four mpeg2 clips in .mov containers, the Fast Color Corrector, Red Giant Looks and Dynamics effects applied to each clip and some title elements. The sequence in Premiere CC seemed to be working fine until the 2.5 upgrade of Looks (I suspect this may be the issue, but I'm not sure).
I can open the file, but experience issues when I try to render (Premiere CC will sometimes freeze) and when trying to export to Quicktime H264 (both within Premiere CC or trying to use AME). In fact, when I try to use Adobe Media Encoder, it will open AME, but then Premiere hangs with the "Preparing data for export" message displayed.
This is not an issue with my PC's resources, as it is recent (Intel i7-4770 @3.4GHz, 16Gb RAM) and using a good Nvidia GTX770 card. Furthermore, I could edit the files previously without any issue.
One thing I have noticed is that I could previously read the .mov files from within Windows using the Windows Media Player and this no longer works. Perhaps the issue is related to a Codec and has nothing to do with the latest update to Looks.
Any help would be most welcome.More information needed for someone to help... please click below and provide the requested information

Indesign CS3 text frame parameters and export PDF
could use some help with the following:
I need to edit and export a large number (7000) Indesign documents (one page)
1. check for locked text frames and unlock
2. group all text frames
3. set grouped text frames at x=8 millimeters, y 10 milimeters
4. export the documents to PDF in a subfolder called "Out"
5. save and close the documents in the same subfolder as an Indesign CS3 document (orig is CS2)
This is what I've been trying soo far:
Now only checking one text frame - should be all text frames
"close document 1 saving yes" doesn't work because the originals are from CS2
I get a PDF called "Adobe Indesign SC3"
set processFolder to choose folder with prompt "Choose a folder that contains Innd Docs to process"
tell application "Finder"
if not (exists folder "OUT" of processFolder) then
make new folder at processFolder with properties {name:"OUT"}
end if
set the destination_folder to folder "OUT" of processFolder as alias
end tell
tell application "Finder"
try
set listFiles to (files of contents of processFolder) as alias list
on error
set listFiles to (files of contents of processFolder) as alias as list
end try
repeat with thisFile in listFiles
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS3"
with timeout of 120 seconds
activate
set properties of view preferences to {horizontal measurement units:millimeters, vertical measurement units:millimeters, ruler origin:page origin}
open thisFile
set myDoc to document 1
set docName to name
tell myDoc
set transform reference point of layout window 1 to top left anchor
set myBox to text frame 1 of page 1
set properties of myBox to {locked:false}
move myBox to {8, 10}
end tell
export document 1 format PDF type to (destination_folder as string) & docName & ".pdf" using PDF export preset "[Drukwerkkwaliteit]" without showing options
close document 1 saving yes
tell application "Finder" to move thisFile to destination_folder with replacing
end timeout
end tell
end repeat
end tell
end
end
Any help is greatly appreciated - Doing this manually is a lot of work!!!!!
PeterYou're asking for the name of the application, not the document -- you need<br />to do it after your "tell myDoc".<br /><br />You could also get the name from the alias you open, rather than the open<br />document, something like:<br /><br />repeat with thisFile in listFiles<br />set oldDelims to AppleScript's text item delimiters<br />set AppleScript's text item delimiters to {":"}<br />set docName to text item -1 of (thisFile as Unicode text)<br />set AppleScript's text item delimiters to oldDelims<br /><br />You should also move your "set properties of view preferences" line to after<br />your "tell myDoc".<br /><br />-- <br />Shane Stanley <[email protected]>
