Lightroom 4 won't upgrade

I bought and installed Lightroom 4 with the beta in place, as the installer suggested, but the beta persists and I can't open older catalogs - any ideas?

Sorry - figured it out!

  • Lightroom v2 won't read RAW files from Sony A77

    Hi there - just got a new Sony A77 but Lightroom v2 won't read RAW files when I try to import them.  I know I need to upgrade my version of LR (I will be going to v4) but... is there ANYTHING else I need to do or to upgrade in order to ensure Lightroom 4 will read those Sony RAW files?  Thanks!

    I don't keep track of what cameras are supported in what versions.  But, IF your camera is supported by the latest DNG converter, you could use it to create digital negative copies of your images.  Those DNG files can then be opened in the version that you have now.  You won't get anywhere near the development quality that you will get with Lightroom 4, but at least you can work on your images with what you have now.
    And if Lightroom 4 supports your camera, that is the only thing you can do to "ensure" that you can use your files.  Of course, if you modify them now with the version that you have, you can leave them with those adjustments when you upgrade to Lightroom 4, but if you want to use the new adjustments and the improved develop tools you'll probably have to basically start over on any images that you want to convert to the new PV 2012.

  • Lightroom 2 won't import Nikon D3s files

    I work with Photoshop CS4 and have upgraded the camera RAW to v5.7 in order that Nikon D3s files can be used,  but Lightroom 2 doesn't seem to be able to import these NEF files.  Where can I update Camera Raw in Lightroom and how do I do this exactly?
    Thank you

    Thanks; I ordered the upgrade.

    The A33 isn't supported until LR 3.2.  So, if you posted to this thread because you are using LR 2, then that's your problem.

  • Lightroom 2 won't launch after install

    After installing onto an XP 32-bit machine that already had Lightroom 2 Beta running, Lightroom 2 now refuses to launch. It is an upgrade version loaded from disc but has killed off all the other versions, too.
    I have un-installed and re-installed repeatedly - rebooting every time - to no avail. Even a new install of Lightroom 1 won't launch - which makes me wonder if there is a rogue file from the Beta version that needs a serious talking to.
    The computer shows the application as correctly installed but it simply won't launch.
    What to do?

    Thanks Lee
    Version 2 and Beta preference files no longer exist after uninstalling and V1.0 still refuses to launch even after removing its preferences.
    Could there be something in the registry that needs a kick?

    I have been using a Lightroom 5 including recent upgrades on my Mac Pro laptop for the past 1 year. This was purchased as an upgrade from Lightroom 4 for which I have a serial number. Today I purchased a new Macbook pro and loaded my Lightroom 5 however it is asking for my serial number which I have misplaced. I am unable to trace my serial number anywhere. I have even checked my adobe membership to locate my serial number but it does not seem to have any record which is strange as I have been using this software for over a year now and the previous versions since 2009. Could someone help me in my predicament.

  • ITunes won't upgrade to10.5. Error message "There is a problem with the Windows installer package. Contact the package vendor". I need help.

    iTunes won't upgrade to10.5. I'm on 10.1.17.
    When installing 10.5 it terminates with an error message "There is a problem with the Windows  installer package. Contact the package vendor".
    It does not provide an error code or details/description to further troubleshoot. As a result I can't upgrade my Apple devices to leverage the cloud.
    Any smarts out there who could help?
    Using PC Win-7 w/IE 7 (should that matter)
    Thanks much

    I know there's a million threads like this, but I thought I'd record my experience.  I, too, was having the original poster's error when I tried to update iTunes on Windows XP.  I think I was stuck on 10. 
    I solved it by un-installing iTunes and every other Apple app.  I discovered that Apple Software Update would not un-install as its MSI file could not be found.  I used the "Windows Install Cleanup" tool from Microsoft to remove Apple Software Update from the list of installed programs.  Google "kb290301" for a Microsoft page that includes a download link for it.  After that, I was able to install a fresh copy of iTunes 10.5.2.
    I'm not sure why this app's folder and MSI were missing from my computer.  I had once used Laplink PC Mover to move everything from my old computer to this one, and perhaps it missed a bit.

  • Lightroom 3 crash after upgrading Lightroom 1 Catalog

    I installed Lightroom 3 and upgraded my Lightroom 1 catalog (21,000 photos). It runs through the upgrade process without any problems and opens Lightroom 3, where I can browse through a few screens of images.
    However, if I scroll past a certain point in my Grid view, Lightroom 3 stops rendering thumbnails. Double clicking on images fails to render a preview.  CPU usage at this point goes from 50% to 0.  At this point, Lightroom 3 becomes useless, though I can still scroll up and down, I only see empty grid thumbnail frames.
    If I quit the application, I get a beachball, for minutes on end before I force quit.
    Console reports the following:
    06/10/10 9:53:24 PM Adobe Lightroom 3[506] ServerProcess [AsyncDataServer( Lightroom 3 Catalog.lrcat )] ERROR SERVER<AsyncDataServer
    ( Lightroom 3 Catalog.lrcat )>: A command threw an exception.
    06/10/10 9:53:24 PM Adobe Lightroom 3[506] ServerProcess [AsyncDataServer( Lightroom 3 Catalog.lrcat )] ERROR Error: ?:0: attempt to
    perform arithmetic on field '?' (a nil value)
    06/10/10 9:53:24 PM Adobe Lightroom 3[506] Error initializing alternate universe. bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil)
    Deleting all Lightroom 3 prefs, plists, catalog, previews, rebooting and trying the process again results in exactly the same problem.
    I can still run Lightroom 1 fine. It has no problem with the Lightroom 1 catalog.  I tried optimizing the Lightroom 1 catalog before upgrading, but this
    did nothing.
    I'm running on a 2007 MacBookPro with 3GB RAM and a 7200 RPM 500GB drive under Mac OS X 10.5.8.

    The problem lies in 1 or more "corrupt" catalog entries from the old catalog. I had exactly the same problem going from LR2 to LR3 on a 2009 iMac running 10.6.4. I got the same console error messages and had exactly the same symptoms.
    However I discovered that I could start LR3 with a new empty library and then use "import from catalog" to selectively import some parts from my LR2 catalog. There are about 6k images in the LR2 catalog and some folders would work fine and others would fail. After a lot of trial and error I was able to isolate where LR3 would hang and give me problems. And the images that it had a problem with were 2 images from the old catalog that LR2 would not display. Instead LR2 would show a blank thumbnail where the "corrupt" catalog thumbnail should be and would not be able to display that image. For those images, LR2 gave the following console error message:
    10-07-01 8:58:48 AM Adobe Lightroom 2[2038] *** WARNING: Method selectRow:byExtendingSelection: in class AgNSOutlineView is deprecated. It will be removed in a future release and should no longer be used.
    10-07-01 9:02:04 AM Adobe Lightroom 2[2038] ?:0: attempt to perform arithmetic on field '?' (a nil value)
    Aside from not display the thumbnails and images for those two files, LR2 worked fine. When I unselected those two images from the "import from catalog" dialog, I was able to import the rest of my LR2 catalog into LR3 in one shot.
    If LR1 fails to display some thumbnails, you could manually note which those are and then use the same process I used. It is still tedious going through a large library looking for blank thumbnails. If LR1 displays all thumbnails correctly then you could try the brute force trial and error approach that I initially used but that is very time consuming.
    Hope this helps.

    My desktop Pro won't upgrade from it's current format of 10.5.8 it just states up to date software? Please advise my course of action!

    The first step in Upgrading... is to Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x
    It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
    Do this first...
    Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...

    If so... Purchase a Snow Leopard Install Disc...

    After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
    Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...

  • Display driver won't upgrade

    My original display drivers is giving me issues. When I try to update the driver, it won't upgrade.  Please help! Thanks!

    You are welcome.  Thank you for the additional information.
    The first thing that you should do is, uninstall the current driver.  You can do this by going into the Control Panel / Device Manager / Display adater.  Right click on your video card and select "Uninstall".  Once the driver is uninstalled, you can install the latest driver.  Is this the driver that you are attempting to install?  You can't use retail drivers from AMD/ATI with HP OEM video cards.

  • I bought a new MacBookPro moved everything from old MacBookPro, new machine runs 10.6.7 - but iPhoto won't 'upgrade' the library - just hangs up supposedly while writing new library. help. thanks.

    How did you "move everything" over?
    Migration assistance does not handle the iPhoto library well sometimes - the best way is to drag the bad iphoto library from the pictures folder on the new system to the desktop, connect the two systems together (network, firewire target mode, etc) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old system to the pictures folder of the new system and launch iPhoto on the new system - it will open and convert the iPhoto library as necessary and you will be fine - once you test the iPhoto library you can delete the one on the desktop

  • Lightroom 2 won't install at all

    Hi, folks--
    Could anyone suggest why my new version of Lightroom 2 won't install at all on my system? At first I thought that it was because my comp didn't meet the minimum requirements, but I believe it does, so I'm stumped. I received a Windows Installer error message stating, "This installation package could not be opened. Contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package." I'm trying to install from a brand-new CD purchase made through Amazon, so I trust the retailer. I have a valid serial number and all that.
    I'm running Win XP Pro, SP3.
    Thanks for the help!
    -Greg

    My suggestion is to download the trial (which is the full version) and try that. You can then add the serial number on the one you purchased.

  • I have been using Photoshop and Lightroom for years, purchasing upgrades. If I join CC do I have to pay the same as someone new to PS and Lightroom?

    Adobe usually offers discounts on the full Creative Cloud (all apps) for customers with CS3 or later. However the Photography plan (Photoshop and LR) Is $9.99 pm (or local currency) and the initial benefits for CS customers who took what was then called The Photography Program (larger cloud storage) has now ended.

  • Lightroom 5 won't load after 30 day trial of Lightroom3 error.

    I tried the 30 day trial of Lightroom 3 that I got with the Photoshop Elements 10 when I got my new computer.  The Lightroom loaded one picture and said I had an error and would try to find a solution.  I bought Lightroom5  and tried to install it and it keeps going back to the error of Lightroom 3 trial.  I tried to delete all programs associated with Lightroom and reinstall, but nothing happens.

    it just reads "Lightroom-Opening Catalog:New Years Day 2014 031.JPG.Ircat   assertion failed!
    New Years day 2014 is a folder and 031 is the picture in the folder that I tried to enhance in the 30 day free trial of Lightroom 3.  I bought Lightroom 5 from B &H and it appears to be hung up on the Lightroom 3 trial.
