Lightroom 5.3 Slideshow Crash

Every time I try to do a slideshow Lightroom crashes.  The first time it crashed during the slideshow.  Now it crashes at the end of the slideshow.  I am running on a PC with Windows 7.
Does anybody have any suggestions.  I tried deleting my previews and still had the same problem.
Thanks,

Well, I've found a solution for this that works for me. It came from another post on the forum on same topic: http://forums.adobe.com/message/6002108
Basically, you need to delete the Previews.lrdata file associated with the Catalog you're trying to use the Slideshow on/with. Then open the Catalog and let LR rebuild the previews. Slideshow should now work ok.
Very disappointed that no-one from Adobe has taken the time to acknowledge this issue or even have the courtesy to give paying customers some basic support on this.
Not good Adobe. Stop counting your Creative Cloud cash and get back to work.

    I assume you know where your catalogue file (the lrcat file) is located. In the same folder is a previews lrdata folder which you should delete or rename in Explorer, then start LR again.
    If I've made incorrect assumptions above, sorry, and we'll go back over it from the start.

  • IDVD slideshows crash Mac DVD Player

    So, I created my movie in iMovie, exported it to iDVD 8, and then I added two slideshows.
    One slideshow has 110 pictures and the other slideshow has about 12 pictures.
    Both slideshows play perfectly in iDVD preview mode and on my Panasonic DVD player.
    But, when I try to play either slideshow on my MacBook Pro, both slideshows crash the Mac DVD Player.
    I'm very frustrated with this. You would think that a DVD I create on my Mac can at least play on my Mac!
    Any help will be most appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Paul

    It's nice to know that someone is seeing a similar problem...misery
    loves company!
    I've been creating slideshows in iDVD by dragging and dropping pictures
    from iphoto, and the slideshows work great in the iDVD preview, on
    my Panasonic DVD player, and my Playstation 2. But, the DVD crashes
    the Mac DVD Player EVERY time. I've have problems with the DVD Player
    in previous release, so this wouldn't surprise me. But, it would be nice
    if the player worked with DVDs created by Apple's own software.

    Hi there, I've just installed iLife 08 on my iMac 20" 2.16, OS 10.4.10 with all
    the updates through software update and I get the same problem before even
    burning a disc! Any slideshow exported to iDVD from iPhoto makes the programme
    bug out when you use the iDVD preview. Same photos dragged into iDVD to make the
    slideshow there work fine. Also tried exporting quicktime from iPhoto and
    importing into iDVD that way - also causes the crash (I don't even get a 'quit
    unexpectedly' message) - there's obviously some problem with quicktime.

  • Lightroom 5.2 Slideshow "Export Video" over exposed

    Hello,  In using Lightroom 5.2 Slideshow (current version), I can export PDF and Jpeg versions of the Slideshow which look good.  When I add music and Export Video slideshow the exposure goes up by +1.5 to +2.  Help! 
    I have gone to "Preferences", "Presets", "Store presets with this catalog" (checked)
    Thanks,
    Mike84

    The video on SMugMug looks very good on my Windows 7 system using both IE 9 and FireFox 24, so it appears there is nothing wrong with the LR video. Check your Grapics adapter's control panel. I'm running an Nvidia graphics card- Right click on a blank area of the Desktop and select Nvidia Control panel, or whatever graphics adapter panel you have.
    Try setting the 'Video' section of your panel back to 'Restore Defaults,' or do it manually. In addition, there is a know issue with Nvidia drivers that causes black levels to look washed-out. If using an Nvida card folow the settings shown in the screenshot below and set the 'Dynamic Range' to 'Full (0-255)' and NOT 'Limited (16-235).' Make sure the Conrol panel Video section Gamma and Color settings are at their default settings.
    If still having this issue download the latest driver from Nvidia's or AMD's website and install it. If still having the issue provide your OS version, graphics adapter model, and graphics driver version.

  • Slideshow crashes

    The problem with slideshows crashing continues. I  have the same problem with music playing during a slideshow. First the music and then the slideshow crashes. This happens to  all my Apple devices after installing IOS 8.

    Here's the only approach that works - at least until Apple decides that it should be comprehensive when fixing bugs in its OS.
    When starting the slideshow, set the Transitions option to Oragami.  All of the other settings (fade, ripple, wipe) will eventually crash, but with Oragami, your slideshow will soldier on.
    It's not a perfect solution, and it is certainly far from what a company with Apple's capabilities and standards should be offering, but at least it's an option.

  • Slideshows crash iPhoto

    Hello,
    FYI, I'm using iPhoto 5.0.4 (263) and OSX 10.4.3.
    Somehow part of my iPhoto database has gotten corrupted. What I mean by this is that I can still use all of my albums and my pictures are still there, but a few of the slideshows crash iPhoto. If I select one in the source selection list (left pane), I get the pinwheel [of death] for less than half a second and then an abrupt iPhoto death. I don't think any of the photos that were in the slideshow still exist in the library, which is why I'm trying to delete the slideshows.
    I know that 99.999% of the people really SHOULD NOT do this, but just for fun, I backed up a copy of my iPhoto library, opened ~/Pictures/iPhoto Library/AlbumData.xml in Property List Editor.app (which really needs to be threaded better IMHO -- expanding a list of 5000+ items takes forever and has no progress bar), and removed the Albums under "List of Albums" which had an "Album Type" of "Slideshow". Opening iPhoto back up, the slideshows were still there and I still had the same problem. So I restored the original iPhoto Library (including the AlbumData.xml file).
    Any recommendations on how to remove these corrupt Slideshows (which are really only taking up screen real-estate, if anything)?
    Thanks!

    Hi toadgee
    I am not sure if this will help but it wouldn't hurt. Try a rebuild of the library.
    Try this:
    Before doing a rebuild make sure iPhoto's trash bin is emptied. You can do this by control clicking on the trash bin, or from the menu bar under iPhoto.
    Close iPhoto
    Duplicate the iPhoto Library folder
    Drag the duplicate to the desktop (hopefully you have enough room on your hard drive for the duplicate.)
    Launch iPhoto holding down the Command and Option keys until you see the rebuild options screen.
    Choose the first three options. If you were missing photos in your library, also choose the last option. Be advised that you will get a roll of orphaned photos and it might be quite huge. Most of them will already be in your iPhoto library, but use caution when deleting anything from this roll until you are sure the photos are still in your library in another place. It might be a good idea to share/export this roll of photos just in case you need to import them again.
    Back to the rebuild, depending on the size of your library it might take some time. When it is done, hopefully your photos will be there.
    You might see some unexpected results as I did when I did a rebuild. Photos had been moved to wrong dates, video clips had lost their duration info and some were even orphaned from the jpg pointer file. It took me some time to straighten it out again.
    This is the reason to make a duplicate before you rebuild, in case you do not like the result. If you don't like the result, close iPhoto, then delete the rebuilt library and drag the duplicate back into the Pictures folder making sure the name is iPhoto Library. Launch iPhoto and it should open the library in the Pictures folder.
    iPhoto 4 or later: Rebuilding the iPhoto Library
    let me know how it turns out.

  • Lightroom 4.1 keeps crashing with an error message.

    Sorry, new to the forums and Lightroom. Please bear with me.
    Lightroom 4.1 keeps crashing. I can't get any editing done on my client's photos. I get an error message (no error number given) stating something along the lines of "encountered an error ad must close."
    I would be extremely grateful for any help offered.
    Thank you in advance!

    Any changes to your system lately?
    You may want to remove LR 4.1 and install the latest 4.x version which is 4.4.1 Windows / Mac and is a free update.
    This will not harm your data.

  • Lightroom slideshow crashes on iMac 5k

    I have had the new iMac 5k for two weeks now, and experience a problem with the Slideshow module crashing consistently when playing horizontal images from Nikon D800E / D810.  Horizontal Olympus EM-1 images are fine.  Any vertical oriented images too.
    On my older 2010 iMac 27 the Slideshow module play the same images without any problems.  I hoped the 5.7 upgrade would fix this, but it didn't.
    Anyone else experiencing the same?
    BR Vetle

    I was chat with Adobe tech support for 1 hour 36 minutes complaining of the same issue,  slide show crashes Lightroom. I too am running on a new IMac Retna.  This sounded like the first time the tech rep heard of the problem.  He was going to talk to his supervisor and get back with me.  He saw the crash log and also saw the slide show crash LR.  He took control of my computer and ran the program.  So they hopefully are working on the issue.  I also have a Macbook pro and the same photos will run fine on it.  It is running LR version 5.2 camera raw 8.2.  The error report is many pages long.

  • Since I've loaded Lightroom CC the programs crashes whenever I try to open the Slideshow module. I get a message that says "dynamiclinkmanager quit unexpectedly." In Preferences the "Use Graphics Processor" box is checked. The graphics card is NVIDIA GeFo

    Help!

    Here is what was cut off in title bar.  The graphics card is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M OpenGL Engine on a 2014 iMac running 10.10.3. How do I correct this?

  • Lightroom 2.1 still crashing on Export in develop and web modules

    I am running Lightroom 2.1 on a Windows XP Pro PC with 4GB of Ram, an NVidia graphics card and having found Lightroom 2 an absolute disaster when exporting files with it crashing even when exporting one file, LR2.1 is only slightly better.
    I can export around 10 -15 at a time files in the develop module and export slidehows in the web module with up to 30 images or so. Any more and the computer crashes.
    Adobe really MUST do something about this as amongst other things I do events and weddings and need to create slideshows for my clients of 100-200 images.
    In the meantime any tips!??
    Thanks Stefan

    You have to report more about what symptoms the crash shows: blue screen, reboot, LR crashes, what does Windows say?
    From your description you could have a computer with a hardware problem. Exporting is computationally intensive and taxes the hardware. I can export hundreds of pictures with no problem...
    Get a tool like hwmonitor from cpuid.com and monitor your temperatures. And post more detailled symptoms.
