Lightroom 3 won't run on my Macbook Pro

I just installed Lightroom3 on my Macbook Pro. Lightroom asked me to download 3.6 in the process, which I did. My operating system is OS10.7.5 Lion. When I tried to import photos from IPhoto, Lightroom does not recognize the application! I also tried importing from an SD card. Although Lightroom recognized the SD card, it would not import any of the photos. Obviously I can't use Lightroom if it won't import any photos. Help!

My files are jpegs. Lightroom recognizes by SD card and a desktop folder into which I have exported photos from IPhoto. BUT Lightroom will not import the files whether from IPhoto, SD card or desktop folders. I have not tried attaching camera because Lightroom recognizes my SD card as a "Canon..."

    Running an old MacBook Pro 2.5ghz core 2 Duo. Battery went chemical meltdown and expanded out of its housing. Removed it and was running off the power cord. This worked for a while. Now it won't start up. Have a Replacement on order. Is there a bigger issue or does a battery need to be in the compartment to boot up? Appreciate any help. Thanks.

    Working battery needs to be in for the computer to function.

  • Java will no longer run on my MacBook pro since I updated my java

    Java will no longer run on my MacBook pro since I updated my java - what the heck is with that? When I try to do as suggested and go under Java preferences it wont allow me make any changes this is the error message I get "Cannot launch "java preference" no compatible version of Java 1.5 + is available."
    Then it gives the option to open java preferences or quit. It will only allow me to quit as it won't open java preferences. Stupid updates!

  • CanoScan 9000F scanner won't work on my MacBook Pro even though it should be compatible with the Mac 10.7.2 OS.

    My new CanoScan 900F scanner won't work on my MacBook Pro even though I've followed all instructions to make it compatible with the 10.7.2 OS. The USB connection isn't recognised. What else con I do?

    I have a similar problem with a new CanoScan 9000F which I tried to use without any success on my desktop computer (Mac Pro 5,1) and laptop (Macbook Pro 1,2) both running OS 10.6. Problem is identical on both, viz:
        •    Scanning process appears to start, a message comes on the screen: Scanning do not open document cover followed by Scanning...
        •    This is then replaced by the message: Cannot communicate with scanner. Cable may be disconnected or scanner may be turned off. Check status. Scanner driver will be closed. 2.155.33
    I've spent several hours on the phone with Canon support but having uninstalled/installed/reinstalled/updated/turned on/turned off/unplugged/plugged/restarted innumerable times, the problem is exactly the same. The scanner icon shows up in the Printer & Fax System Prefs (though without the little status lights) and shows as being connected in the USB tree. I think it's a problem with the scanner, Canon bods are suggesting the Macs are at fault and suggest I try connecting to a wintel (hawk, spit) and it's 100km to the nearest Canon service centre.
    Any suggestions as to what might be the problem/s and what I might be able to do to fix it/them?
    Thanks.
    By the way, bought the Canon to replace a HP Scanjet 8300 which I've used for 6 years almost without problems. Any that I have had have been fixed merely by turning the scanner off then on after a 10 second rest.

  • East/West Gold - Can I run it on MacBook Pro w/ Logic Pro?

    I heard "somewhere" that East/West products have trouble running on a MacBook Pro w/ Logic Pro. Any feedback?
    I have also heard that if I buy East/West products I now have to buy a separate "player" (like Kontakt) in order to run them on a MacBook, although what I'm reading is that this is only true for previous versions, not new purchases. Anybody heard any of this?
    Thanks in advance for your collective wisdom!

    EWQLSO traditionally comes with the Kompakt player, which NI are not updating for MacIntel, so it won't run as is on a Macbook.
    However, you have two choices now. You can either buy Kontakt, which is available as a UB for MacIntel machines, and which should%% load the libraries, or EastWest have developed their own player software. Whether you get it free or have to pay the upgrade depends on when you purchased it - if you haven't bought yet, you'll (I think) get the new player for free.
    Do check when the player comes out though, I don't think it's ready yet, but could be mistaken.
    You can get details of this at www.soundsonline.com
    %%Note: Kontakt should load the libraries, but there has been a longstanding authorisation bug in Kontakt which sometimes prevents this. There are easy workarounds on the PC (registry editing) but none that I've seen on the Mac. Some people have had no problems, other people just cannot load encrypred libraries at all - so do check anddo some research before purchase.
    You can always post in the Soundsonline forum for more details.

  • My iPhone 5 won't connect to my macbook pro retina over bluetooth?

    My iPhone 5 won't connect to my macbook pro retina over bluetooth?

    Ah, sure it actually won't.  I have the same problem, and I contacted Apple Support.  They told me that there is an incompatability between the iphone 5 and MacBook Pro Retina such that Bluetooth pairing is not possible.
    The Support Agent actually had the audacity to tell me this was part of the design of the OS on the MacBook Pro, like Windows people saying, "That's not a bug.  It's a feature!!"
    Personally, I think this is insane.  While I was trying to tether the iphone to the MacBook Pro retina for an internet connection, there are other reasons related to file transfers for which one would want to pair the iphone 5 with the MacBook Pro retina.
    I am hoping this "feature" is fixed in iOS 7, and/or in some dot release of Mac OS 10.8.
    By the way, the personal hotspot feature on my Verizon iphone 5 works great either via a wifi or USB connection.  There are occaisions, however, when one would 1) not have a USB cable, and/or 2) have another wifi relationship between the phone and a network that one would not want to have to "forget" in order for it not to connect to that wifi network.  The Macbook will not find the iphone as a wifi hotspot if the iphone is connected to wifi in the first place.  At least mine won't.

  • Hi! I got movies on my external hard drive that are AVI kind and won't play on my macbook pro? need some help please!!

    Hi! I got Movies on my external hard drive that are AVI kind and won't play on my macbook pro? When I start playing the movie a message pops up and says "a required codec is not available". I tried flip4mac, xvid, divx already and still not playing my video. need some help please!! thanks.

    Although vlc mentioned above is a much more powerful and better player you could try installing Perian if you insist on using the quicktime player.  It may supply the codec it needs.
    Not sure why you wouldn't be able to play straight avi files though in quicktime.

    This is more about your modem then anything. Sometimes you'll need to unplug and plug back in your modem. Consider it a glitch from the ISP or just the modem in general.
    when I need to turn something off then on I try the modem first. This when I'm not doing any ware and tare to the device.

    What won't open? Photoshop, or the photos that you "stored in iPhoto"?
