Lightroom 4.3 on a Mac Pro not working under my user name

I have recently installed Lightroom 4.3 on a MacPro, Mountain Lion, 8GB RAM, environment.  I kept getting the following error when changing to the "Slideshow" module: 'An error occurred when attempting to change modules'.  I followed the advice given here and the application now works well under a new user name.  However, I don't want to have to log in under this name everytime I want to use Lightroom.  How can I find out what's wrong with my own user profile?  Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers
John

It's not just you John - there's an active bug, appears to be affecting people with a second monitor attached http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/lightroom_4_3_slideshow_bug

  • Flash player does not work under one user account.

    Flash player does not work under one of my user accounts.
    My system: I work with a mac mini with Mac OS X 10.6.8.
    What I have done:
    I installed the flash player maybe one year ago under my "first" user account. At that time this user account had had administrator authorization. In the meantime I had to change this "first" user account in an account without administrator authorization and created an administrator user with which I installed different programms. Lately, the message came up that it would be necessary to update the flash player. I did it; under the "first" user account, but of course with the administrator's password for installing. The installation had been "successful" - so I was told. But it did not run. I tried it again and again. Each time with "deinstallation" first. No way; it did not work.
    After asking Adobe for the reason of the problem, they suggested to install the programm directly under the administrator user. I did that (of course after deinstalling under the "first" user account) with the result, that flash player runs under my administrator and my "second" user account, but not under the first user account. There I am always told to update my flash player.
    With this result, I talked to Adobe. So they told me to contact the producer of the operating software, since this would be a mistake of the operating software.
    And here I am - full of hope to get help from you.
    Thanks for reading. And thanks in advance for helping me.

    Any update to provide at all here guys?  Again, in my situation, it's very much rights-related as a standard user doesn't even report that the flash player exists when testing it on the Adobe Flash Version Detection website (despite it showing up in Control Panel and under Add/Remove Programs).  I've already tried giving the C:\Windows\System32\Macromed and files/subfolders appropriate permissions for the standard user and still nothing.  If I either give the user in question full local admin rights or logon as the domain admin, then the Adobe Flash Version Detection website says Flash is installed and Flash works fine.
    Thoughts???

  • Audio Output from Mac Pro not working in XP

    I'm trying to make the audio line output of the Mac Pro work in XP. the only sound comes from the motherboard or headphones in front of the computer.
    Under audio devices say "realtech HD audio device" This is the Apple mac pro?
    How do I turn the audio output on?

    I think I resolved this! I had the same issues you have been having for a few months. I am actually running Vista. Here is what I did...
    1. While booted to Windows I uninstalled boot camp
    2. Re-installed boot camp from Leopard DVD
    3. Installed boot camp update 2.1 (downloaded from Apple support, i know this is for XP only, but I updated anyway.)
    4. Downloaded the realtek drivers (high definition audio codecs) from http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/
    5. DO NOT use the Realtek installer to install the drivers...instead extract the contents to a folder.
    6. Go to the device manager, locate the High Definition Audio device and updated the drivers from here (point to the folder where you extracted the drivers).
    I now have sound out of the rear jack!! Hope this help someone

  • Bought internal bluetooth card in 5 year old Mac Pro; not working right?

  • Duel displays Mac pro not working properly

    I have a MacPro Tower that I bought 4 years ago that was running OS 10.5.x. I *just* finally got around to upgrading the OS (I've had Snow Leopard discs for over a year and never installed them), so that's what I upgraded to. I have two displays connected to the system: a 23" Apple Display and a 20" Acer.
    I was running with both displays before the upgrade just fine, and after initially upgrading to 10.6.3 my mouse was easily going back and forth between the two screens, but just ran the upgrade to 10.6.8 and now my mouse is "stuck" in the Acer screen and won't move over to my Apple Display - and the Apple Display is the one that has all the open windows and menus.
    I tried unplugging and replugging in my displays and restarting the problem remains.
    Any ideas for a solution?

    For: "The battery does not appear to be charging properly"
    Reset SMC. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Choose the method for:
    "Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own".
    If resetting SMC does not help, MacBook Pro should be  taken to the Apple store for service.
    Best.

  • Screen dims randomly with Mac Pro - NOT a Macbook

    After upgrading to Mountain Lion, my screen will dim randomly when watching movies or YouTube.  This is on my early 2008 Mac Pro - not a Macbook Pro which seems to have this problem commonly.  I've searched and searched and lots of people have this problem with a Macbook Pro (battery saving feature or something) but there are no options to defeat screen dimming that I can find for a Mac Pro!! Mountain Lion just keeps getting worse and worse!
    HelP!

    Hello, thanks for taking the time to help me out!
    This is a 2008 MacPro (2x2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon) running Mountain Lion OSX 10.8.4.
    I am running two monitors: a HannsG HH281 and a Hewlett PAckard HP w2408h.
    When this first was happening back in March 2013, I thought it had something to do with the ambient light sensor on the HP (the HannG doesnt have a light sensor), but it also might have has something to do with the dynamic contrast on the HannsG.  I had shut those features off, and I actually hadn't had this problem in a while and there has been a few Mountain Lion updates since then.
    I just tried to reproduce this by turning on/off the dynamic contrast on the Hanns G - did not get the problem
    again.  I also just turned the ambient light sensor on for the HP, and again, the problem did not occur.
    So it is hard to say if the problem is gone away or not or if it just is not showing itself at the time being?

  • Why would I get a Sudden Motion Sensor error on a Mac Pro (not a laptop)??

    Get this error all the time since upgrading to Logic 9.1.4.  Thing is, I have a Mac Pro, not a laptop.
    Apple sends me to this page:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1934
    Should I disable sudden motion sensor?  Seems silly.  I am recording woth headphones, there's no movement from the computer.   And again, didn't have this error for 3 years and suddenly I get it after upgrading to 9.1.4?

    9.1.4 seems a bit shaky...
    That said, you might try disabling "Sleep" for the drive.
    As I recall, it's a generic error meaning the computer either isn't getting a response from the drive or that it can't pull data off fast enough.

  • [URGENT] Mac Pro not booting, Fan error but fans are working.

    Hello,
    My server G5 is stuck on grey screen with spinning wheel. I ran the AHT and got the following:
    2FAN/4/8: CPU A INTAKE
    All the fans are spinning. I would really really appreciate if I can get any help or advice. I tried searching for this AHT error but could not find anything solid.
    This is our main server and its crucial to our organization and I am sweating bullets here.
    I reseted memory and unplugged all RAID drives. The three LED on the Logic board are Red, Yellow and Green; Power On, Trickle and Open Firmware respectively.
    Thanks for any help.

    Just to say that usually it helps to include the make/model of RAID controllers, whether it is hardware RAID or not. The Mac Pro Apple RAID card IS a PITA and is particular sometimes about drives and its battery reconditioning as well as mounting drives and time to create a hardware RAID5.
    When a drive causes trouble it is often though not always because of directory being damaged and OS X can't even inspect to see if there is a system or if it can be mounted.
    And because the G5 normally only has two SATA drives, to use three requires a bracket or something else to add drives, like Sonnet G5 Jive. And then a PCI SATA controller with internal ports. But that is just your average SATA controller.
    If it was a Mac Pro the thread could and should have been moved to another forum. And you still refer to this as a Mac Pro, not PowerMac. Which leads me to wonder.
    Molex y-splitters as needed in a G5 but three yrs for a set of drives, I'd say they were due for backup + erase/initialize and restore. Hopefully you kept them in shape with Disk Warrior during that time (don't rely on just Apple First Aid to maintain and repair/rebuild directories).

  • For some reason, the Flash Player on my MAC Pro stopped working, I've checked the install on my Adobe Flash Player and the are current, but the plug-ins don't seem to be working.  Can anyone help me get it working?

    For some reason, the Flash Player on my MAC Pro stopped working, I've checked the install on my Adobe Flash Player and the are current, but the plug-ins don't seem to be working.  Can anyone help me get it working?

    It happened w/ my MacPro 2.66 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon about 5 months ago; tried everything I could think of including multiple downloads of Flash, and hadn't seen any solutions here.  Adobe insisted many times that I download & update, but the newest vers. wouldn't work on the computer.
    On checking Adobe/Flash was reading the computer as being an earlier model. So the new version of Flash wouldn't work w/ it.  Snow Leopard 10.6.8 was being read correctly but not the computer model (can't remember what MP model  it was reading).
    Nothing worked. So -- a very old PC trick: If nothing else works get the hammer out and bludgeon it-- might work. So I reset everything by putting the Snow Leopard  install disk in, held down 'C' on restart and let it run. 
    Didn't take anything off the HDD first, just ran the install disk over everything.
    The experts on the forums are probably cringing right now & I'd like very much for them to jump in. Love to know how my computer model was being mis-read. All I can say is, for the brave and desparate, it worked for me. Something to keep in mind.
    It helped that I had a new computer on order & have 2 backups, one being mandatory. Might work only the one time but worth a check.
    Good luck on working this one out.

  • Can Mac Pro run AHCI under Windows?  No native command queuing?

    It seems that Mac Pro runs AHCI under OS X.
    Under Windows Vista 32/64 or XP 32/64, some reason AHCI cannot be enabled. It seems to only run legacy IDE mode. Even with modern HD, Mac Pro can not seems to take advantage of AHCI benefits such as hot-plugging and native command queuing. Does Apple thinks that native command queuing is necessary feature under OS X but not under Windows?
    Even with installing AHCI driver using F6 during Windows installation, AHCI mode cannot be obtained.
    Is there a simple way to enable AHCI mode besides modifying the grub bootloader as some suggested in forum? Or is it not possible until Apple modifies BIOS CSM or allows EFI modification? It seems that Apple wont address this issue with firmware update since Intel Mac Pros have been available for years now.
    Any suggestion of enabling AHCI under windows XP / Vista will be welcomed.

    HD Tune wont expect to show any change with or without NCQ.
    NCQ will show advantage in server environment or heavy multi-tasking environment, not on I/O meter. NCQ may even slow some game playing in some instance.
    AHCI adds other stuff like hotswapping or other modern goodies, not just NCQ.
    Mac Pro has Intel chip / controller capable of AHCI and RAID (well pseudo Intel Matrix RAID) only if Apple allows us to enble it in EFI.
