Lightroom 3 Error Working With Photos That Work With Other Apps

My Setup:
Lightroom 3.3 for Mac
iMac OS X 10.6.6
The problem:
Lightroom is unable to work with photos it used to be able to work with. In the Library Module I get the error message "There was an error working with the photo." In the Develop Module I get the message "The file appears to be unsupported or damaged."
Now I know the photos are ok because I can view them in other apps including Photoshop CS5
And these photos used to work in Lightroom.
I am suspicious it has something to do with Picasa, which I use to catalog faces. I have compared the exif data and the photos that don't work have an extra value called "Image Unique Id" and it appears to be a long hexadecimal number. Also, the software version has been modified to indicate "Picasa".
It bothers me that a world class product like LIghtroom is not robust enough to work on these files when everything else I have tried does work. The problem is LIghtroom is the primary tool in my workflow.
So has anybody seen this and know of a way to fix it?

@Pete -
Thanks for the feedback, but my I think my concern is valid. Whatever Picasa is doing to the photo other apps like Apple Preview and CS5 can deal with it. Lightroom cannot. I am not explicitly modifying the files in Picasa just using Picasa to catalogue the faces. So yes, I will quit using Picasa, but I still have hundreds (if not thousands) of photos that can no longer be processed by Lightroom and I need guidance on how to best recover these photos.
I didn't know whether the Image Unique Id is standard or not, but I do know it does not show up in the files that work, only in the files that do not work. I just assumed that it was non-standard because I did not see it on functioning files.
Also, I would argue that Lightroom should be better able to handle this kind of situation instead of just not working. Thanks again.

How to deal with query that works like dir or ls

I just can't figure it out how to deal with query that works like dir (Win32) or ls(unix) with special character like '*' and '?' , ex. c:\> dir j*.t?t
Could somebody please tell me?

Here's some code for using a FileFilter for the listFiles() method of the File class:
import java.io.*;
    FileFilter myFileFilter = new MyFileFilter("*.t?t");
    File[] files = File.listFiles(myFileFilter);
class MyFileFilter implements FileFilter {
        private String pattern;
        public MyFileFilter(String pattern) {
            this.pattern = pattern;
        public boolean accept(File file) {
            if (file.isDirectory()) {
                return false;
            if (file.getName() ??matches?? pattern) {
                // you'll have to put the pattern match code here!!
                return true;
            return false;
}maybe someone else can help with the pattern matching!

I am using MAC OSX 10.9.4 and LR5 Ver 5.6. I can't drag LR to my second screen. It's always worked before. All of my other apps drag to the second screen with no issues. I've re-booted my computer and it did't help. Any ideas???

Make sure you are not in one of the full screen modes.

Can you see the "Traffic Lights" at the top left of the Lightroom window?

Question
I have one out of five email address's with coxmail that opens with a blank inbox. Other browsers like opera or IE show the content of the same inbox. I've contacted cox but they tell me the problem is on my computer. I've used three different anti virus/malware scanners to eliminate all the bugs they can find. I need a firefox guru with suggestions. Thanks, Charles

You can undo your permission changes. Probably the most relevant one is cookies. Try one or both of these methods:
(1) Page Info > Permissions tab
While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Permissions
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Permissions
(2) about:permissions
In a new tab, type or paste '''about:permissions''' and press Enter. Allow a few moments for the list on the left to populate, as this information needs to be extracted from a database.
Then type or paste ''rcn''' in the search box above the list to filter it to the most relevant domains. When you highlight a domain, you can adjust its permissions in the right pane.
Any luck?

My nook app continues to state "Please be sure you have internet connectivity, then try again." I am currently connected to wifi and it seems that all my other apps that need to be connect to the internet are properly working. Help!

My nook app keeps telling me "Please be sure you have internet connectivity, then try again." I am currently connected to wifi and it seems that all my other apps that need to be connect to the internet are properly working. I have turn off my phone, signed off my wifi, installed a new app, but nothing is working. My friend is having similar issues. My phone is up to date. I even tried taking off the wifi in hopes that it could just connect to the 3g but nothing. Not sure if anyone else is experiencieng this issue or knows what I can do. I think that it may be an app problem that needs fixed, but not sure. Help!

Maybe its a Viber problem. As that is not an Apple product, why don't you try and contact the developer?

Why can't I e-mail from photos or from inside other apps anymore? I have been able to before.

Why can't I e-mail from photos or from inside other apps anymore? I have been able to before.

That’s just the problem I’m having. I follow all the steps as found in the iPhoto help. I select a photo then click the i (INFO) button in the lower right corner to open Faces - Keywords - Places pane. Then select the Keyword I want to remove, then the delete key. The key word I want to remove is removed okay at that point, (from the Keywords pane.)
However, when I go and do the same operation on a second photo - again the keyword is removed in the Keywords pane - then when I go back the first photo - the unwanted keyword is back.

Thinkpad yoga - limited connection - intel 7260AC (with solution that worked for me)

limited connection issue
i'm new to the forum, sorry for bad english
i've a brand new rhinkpad yoga, with win 8.1 and intel ac 7260 wifi card
first of all the solution that worked for me is moving from WEP to WPA2 protection with the router
the problem was that i wasn't able to connect to internet using wifi
i got "limited connection" and i wasn't able to access internet at all
windows validated the connection and obtained an ip, but it wasn't then unable to access internet at all, i also wasn't able to access or ping the router.
i also got an error stating the lack of the default gateway, but this one seems to be resolved by windows check and repair procedures
my router had wep protection, and i used it with no issues with 2 android smartphones, an android tablet, a mac and a linux system, and in the past with windows 7 and vista systems.
i've searched for solution all the night and checked everything
- system and driver update (via usb thetering)
- various command to reset network configuration
- unchecking selected check box in energy saving tab inside wireless property panel
but the only one solution that worked was the move from WEP to WPA2
hope this helps
my first post, be patient...

From what I gathered, about the Y2P Limited Wifi issue, this problem is solved by configurating a router to meet the computer needs. Once done, to fully implement this fix, it is adviced that you carry this configured router and use it every where you go, like a power cord. When you go to Statbuck in the monrining, be sure they hook up your router and return it when you leave. Alternitively, this can be done at other venues like the airport, hotel, school, work, etc.
I really don't know why people keep wasteing their time. Lenovo has chimed in and said this is a router issue. That said, the aformentioned advice is a formulated fix. Shall we put an end to thiese topics and get the forum moving again past the wifi issues? Like said many times, this issue has been fixed using the above reccomendation.

Microsoft NX-6000 works with Photo Booth, not with iChat

I'm trying to use a Microsoft NX-6000 webcam with my wife's MacBook running 10.5.5. The camera appears properly in System Profiler, and it works properly with Photo Booth. However, iChat tells me that the camera is in use by another application, even after rebooting and ensuring that iChat is the only app running. Is there a way to fix this? (and yes, I know the MacBook has a built-in iSight but she's using it in clamshell mode, so that won't help!)

Does anyone have a Mac Mini (MID-2007) with wifi that works?

Does anyone have a Mac Mini (MID-2007 C2D) which wifi works?
It seems that Mac Mini has different models and some have a Broadcom Wifi card and some Atheros WIFI card. I'm trying to find user whom Mac Mini 2007 with atheros card works. Since os x 10.6 and 10.7 my wifi have not worked at all. I even changed internal antenna. Also attached external antenna on WIFI cards ext port. Still very poor connection. Also sometimes when my mac wakes from sleep country code of WIFI card is US not FI as rest of my family macs. WIFI is made with apple extreme router (802.11n). 2.4 and 5 Ghz networks. I do not have network interference. With Minimac Atheros card has support b and g network with 2.4 Ghz and a network with 5 ghz. Signal ratio is average -80 dbm, and speed varies from 6-36. Both a and g networks work same way on minimac. When I turn machin on wifi is usable about 1-2 minutes then latency will rice and after that timeout will occur on network. Still mac mini is connected to network.
Atheros firmware is: 5424: 2.1.14.9
Card: Airport Extreme (0x168c, 0,86)
Location: ETSI
Country: FI
Security: NONE
PHY: 802.11a
There are a lot of guides on net how to get it working; eg. change older OS kext, remove preferences, install os again (done all that, nothing works, but older kext files seem to work little better). But does any one have a Mac Mini with working wifi. What brand is your router and is the card in minimac original Atheros. Broadcom seems to operate Apple Extreme router quite well.

My Mac Mini Mid 2007 has the same specs:
Card: AirPort Extreme (0x168c, 0x86
Firmware: Atheros 5424: 2.1.14.9
Ever since I upgraded to 10.7.2, my WiFi has been running painfully slowly. Same issue: it works okay for a minute or two, but then slows to a crawl, with network timeouts, etc. And it shows I'm still connected to the network. It gets particularly bad when waking from sleep, unless I quit my web browser first, then put the machine to sleep. (Waking the machine with browser still "launched" causes big problems.)
Has anyone figured out a workaround for this issue?

How can I make an app with xcode that works like a news app? So that I can post articles on the app. Do I have to use a database or can I connect the app directly with my mac?

How can I make an iphone app with xcode that worrks like a newspaper? So that I can post articles on the app while it is on appstore. Can I directly connect the app with my mac or do I have to connect it to a database? Thanks

Funny, I was thinking you'd want to use the prescribed deployment that Apple went to all the trouble to provide so you wouldn't trot down the garden path with some other implementation, only to find your app rejected with the admonition to use Newsstand after all...
If you're all hot to ignore all that & DIY, why are you even asking...why not just go for it...

Error while using BAPIs that deals with DMS

Hi everybody,
We are developing a portal with Web Dynpro and trying to call from our java code BAPIs that deals with DMS:
BAPI_DOCUMENT_CREATE2 - to create a new DMS document and checkin an original.
CVAPI_DOC_CHECKIN - to checkin an original to an existing DMS document.
CVAPI_DOC_CHECKOUT - to checkout an original from the DMS.
While using other bapi's that deals with DMS but do not deals with originals (like creating a new document, retrieving metadata about documents and originals) we don't have any problem.
Only when trying to checkin or checkout originals we get the following message (from the DMS?): RFC_START_PROGRAM
the full message is: com.sap.aii.proxi.framework.core.BaseProxiException:RFC_START_PROGRAM error key:RFC_ERROR_PROGRAM.
does anybody knows the meaning of this message?
by the way - those BAPIs works well while called from the R/3. only when we call them from the portal we have this problem.
thanks for any information, Adi.

Hello,
BTW, You have BAPIs for Doc. checkin and checkout.
BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHECKIN
BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHECKIN2
BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHECKOUTSET
BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHECKOUTSET2
Can you use these and give a try?
You have a detailed documentation maintained for these BAPIs.
Hope this helps you.
Best Regards, Murugesh AS
