Lightroom 5 Doesn't Launch Browser to Authorize Facebook

I'm using Lightroom 5 on a Windows 8 machine and every time I try to go and authorize Lightroom in Facebook, nothing happens. Here's what happens:
1. I click Set up for the Facebook Publish Service in Lightroom.
2. The Publishing Service Manager opens, I enter a description, and click Authorize on Facebook.
3. A dialog box opens that says to click OK to login to Facebook.
4. When I click OK, nothing happens. It just goes back to the Publishing Service Manager and says Not Authorized.
I've been trying to figure out this problem, looking around at other discussions, but can't seem to find any answers that apply in my case. It's my first time to set up the service, so I don't think it's a problem with Facebook. Could it be a problem with my browser set up? My current default is Firefox, but I also tried it using Chrome, unsuccessfully. What should I try next?

Was this every fixed? I am having exactly the same issue. (From "Facebook Set-Up", I click "Authorize on Facebook", then click "OK", and nothing happens.)
I made some progress with Jeffrey Friedl's third-party app, but am getting 'System returned “securityError” when Lightroom attempted to use the Internet: Are you sure that your system date and time are correct?'. Have read Jeffrey's FAQ (Jeffrey Friedl's Blog » FAQ for Jeffrey’s Plugins for Adobe Lightroom), but system date/time are set correctly, and if there is something blocking Lightroom's access to the Internet, I have no idea what it might be (have checked System settings and Chrome settings).
FYI--Working with Lightroom 5.7 / OS X 10.8.3 / Chrome 42.0.2311.90 (64-bit).
Any help would be greatly appreciated. This feature is so key to me that I may stop using Lightroom entirely if I'm not able to solve it. Thanks in advance.

How do you launch browser from a servlet

I have an interesting issue here. I send data to a servlet and the servlet recieves and processes the data (confirmed through breakpoints) but I want to display the data in a JSP or directly thru the servlet using html tags.
However I can forward or redirect the data from the servlet to my jsp code but this still doesn't launch a browser.
A little more detail... I am not sending information from a JSP to the servlet. The servlet is listening on a port for input, so the servlet is being invoked directly when the data comes in. In the current state my servlet sends the results in a session object to a JSP which gets the results but can't display them since it doesn't launch browser.
Does anybody know how to display my calculated results from the servlet in a browser?

Ok let me try to be more specific. I have an application that sends data to the servlet over a socket connection. The servlet gets this data and multiplies it by a factor.
When I put break points in, I see that the servlet gets this data.
Now I am trying to display the data in a browser.
Upon entry to doGet the servlet checks if the String variable that gets the parameter is not null. If it is not null then it forwards to a JSP.
But I tried a scenario where I have a browser open that has the localhost address of the servlet and then I run the program which is outside the war file that contains the servlet to send data to the servlet, but when the servlet gets the data, it does the forward to the JSP but the page is not displayed. However I see the process move to the JSP thru the break points I put in.
I know its kind of a weird scenario but I suspect that since the program calls the servlet and it gets the data, it must need to launch a new browser in order to be able to display the JSP it forwarded to.
I could be wrong but so far I have exhausted all possible ideas in my head for now so if you understand what I am saying perhaps you can tell me if you know a better way to do this...
Thanks

How can i get it to authorize facebook on lightroom 5.5 with out it not crashing on me

hi all everytime i go to authorize facebook on lightroom 5.5 it keeps coming up and saying its not responding how can i fix this everything else works fine on it

Connect the iPad to OS X via a cable, launch iTunes, select the iPad in the left column navigation sidebar (if you don't have that left column visible in iTunes, then select View > Show Sidebar), navigate through the settings for the iPad to select which books or whether all books are synchronized, and press confirm.
You can also select that purchases are automatically downloaded via the iOS settings, if you would prefer. This settings is buried under Settings > iTunes & App Store > select the behavior you want.
There's also an intro to your iPad available from Apple, if you've not already seen that.
Alternatively, see various entries un the "more like this" section off in the right column of this web site.

The Browse in Bridge option in PS CC 2014 doesn't launch Bridge, but instead opens the window of the Creative Cloud desktop app instead. This behaviour is on both Mac and Windows.

I recently installed all the of CC 2014 applications and noticed that in Photoshop CC 2014, when I choose the "Browse in Bridge" menu option it doesn't launch Bridge at all. Instead it opens the Creative Cloud desktop application window instead. I have the latest version of Bridge installed as well. If I have Bridge running, the menu option also just opens the CC window and doesn't bring Bridge to the front either. I have PS installed on both a Mac (10.9.3) and Windows (8.1) and the behaviour is the same.

I only Run windows and my install of CC 2014 works correctly and launches Bridge CC. Bridge CC was also updated to launch CC 2014 and not CC 14.2.1.
Hers is my Photoshop CC 2014 help>System info... You may want to compare your windows systems CC 2014 info to it.

Lightroom 5.5 CC doesn't launch after Update

Hello,
I used Creative Cloud to download all the new 2014 updates of which LR 5 was an update. All the downloads and installs reported being successful. I opened PS CC 2014 and it launch and loaded just fine. However, LR 5 launches the flash screen for about 2 secs, but doesn't launch. I've try to go to Creative Cloud to download and reinstall, but it has LR 5 as installed and won't let me re-download and install. I also tried going to the new creative cloud adobe site and tried downloading it there, but is comes up with a message that the link requires a launch program ... have no idea what the program is. Totally baffled with this new Cloud set up! Your help is greatly appreciated.

I have the same issue. I don't even get a 2-second flash. My question might be slightly different though. I have the Creative Cloud with Photoshop CC and I owned the 5.4 version of Lightroom. I was surprised to see the Lightroom update available in Creative Cloud. While the Photoshop kept my old CC it removed my old Lightroom and installed the new version. I believe there is a problem with the Lightroom.exe file. So I removed the program, rebooted and re-installed. Same thing.
Could this be because my Creative Cloud subscription has not been updated to include Lightroom?
And yes it is a critical flaw.

Need help with the evaluation version of Lightroom CC : the app doesn't launch.

Hello, I have installed the Creative Cloud and Lightroom CC three days ago (version d'essai).
When I try to start Lightroom CC, I get a window with a countdown saying "28 days left", and at the bottom of this window there is a "pursue the evaluation" click button, but when I click on it (to start using Lightroom), nothing happens. I have not been able to launch the app for the last 2 days!
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
Here are some system info : I'm using a LENOVO YOGA 2, Windows 8.1, Intel Core i7, 64 bits.
In fact, the Creative Cloud applications did not unexpectedly revert to trial mode because I did ask for a trial version. At the time, it was the first time I installed Lightroom on my computer (a new computer) and I wanted to test the new Creative Cloud & its applications for photographers (Lightroom 6 and Photoshop).
As I said previously, when I try to launch Lightroom CC, I get a window with a countdown saying "28 days left" (which is ok because I installed the 30-days trial version two days ago). At the bottom of this window, there is a "pursue the evaluation" click button (on which I should click to start the app), but when I click on this button, the windows shots and nothing else happens : Lightroom doesn't open.

Lightroom CC 5 doesn't launch after 2014 update.

Lightroom CC 5 doesn't launch after 2014 update. Mac OSX 10.8.5. Tried the suggestion to log out of Adobe Cloud and log back in. Also rebooted computer. No luck. Photoshop CC 2014 seems to have installed perfectly. Can't install previous version either, can't even find it via Adobe Cloud. Tried re-downloading from Adobe web site but it sits there saying "downloading now" -- but nothing is downloading!

Charr please see Not able to launch Lightroom after updating it to 5.5 from Creative Cloud for possible solutions to allow Lightroom to open.

Help needed. Lightroom 6 doesn't launch after install

I'm a Photography plan subscriber and just upgraded my copy of LR from 5.7.1 to 6.0 through the Creative Cloud Application. Unfortunately, when I click on the Lightroom shortcut on the windows desktop or when I attempt to launch Lightroom 6.0 from the file menu directly, nothing happens, i.e. Lightroom does not launch and does not show up as a running application in the task manager). I've tried uninistalling and reinstalling Lightroom 6.0 and rebooting the computer but neither of these solves the problem. Lightroom 6 will not launch or run. Is anyone else having this problem or does anyone know what I can do to get Lightroom 6.0 to run?

ha, i found help in this thread: LR CC 2015 is crashing after install on Yosemite 10.10.3
i just needed to log out of my account in the creative cloud app, log back in and everything started working again!

Lightroom doesn't work after update to CC 2014

After last update to CC 2014, Lightroom doesn't work for me. I use Windows 8.1

kmvereb - Don't accuse me of lying, OK? It works fine with penderra's instruction.
1. Close Adobe Creative Cloud completely.
2. Empty the folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\SLCache
3. Launch Lightroom - you should be asked to Sign in to Adobe CC.

Trial version of Lightroom doesn't recognise my creative cloud membership!

I downloaded the trial version of lightroom and then joined creative cloud. Now everytime I launch lightroom it asks me to register. How do I get lightroom to recognise that I have creative cloud membership?

Thanks for your quick reply. I run creative cloud on a mac with latest operating system. I have removed lightroom (by putting it into trash) but when I try to download through adobe download manager lightroom doesn't appear in the adobe download manager screen despite Lightroom being available to download in the apps screen. Any further advice you could offer would be very welcome. Thanks.

QuickTime player doesn't launch when streaming podcast

When I stream a podcast through iTunes, the QuickTime player doesn't launch. Instead, the podcast plays through the iTunes browser. The problem is that you can't multitask or even pause the podcast without it starting over. Is this a bug or "new feature"?

Yeah a lot of people are having this problem now:

I was in Lightroom and had a power surge and now Lightroom will not launch....what can I do to fix it?

I was in Lightroom and had a power surge and now Lightroom will not launch. It encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit. Lightroom will attempt to fix the next time it launches. I have shut my system down and Lightroom still will not launch. Does anyone have any suggestions?

delete your preview cache (.lrdata folder).
Here has location:
Preference and other file locations in Lightroom 5
If not enough info, search this forum for "delete preview cache".

Lightroom doesn't export a raw file in Photoshop CS6

I have both PhShP elements and CS6. I recently started working on an IMac. On my windows computer I always exported my files with Lightroom adjustments to CS6 and back. When I ask to export a file in CS6 with Lighroom ajustments it opens PhShP Elements what I don't want without the file.. Who can help me out here? Ariane James

I agree with this feature request.
I have lightroom and PS Extended. Lightroom is perfect for browsing and searching through my RAW images (much better than Bridge I find), and many times I will process the RAW in lightroom and then send the TIFF to Photoshop for further editing.
HOWEVER, ;O) Photoshop extended has far more RAW capability. Sometimes I look at a RAW in lightroom and would like to send that straight to PS Extended to process the RAW with the extra features. At the moment, I have to manually open photoshop, search for the photo (which is a long time consumer when I already found it in Lightroom) and then process.
This would be a very handy feature.
It would also work perfectly with a similar extra feature to export RAW to a 3rd party program. Sometimes, after browsing photos in lightroom, I would like to send the RAW straight to Photomatix, an HDR software for tone mapping. It only works with RAW for tone mapping, but Lightroom only allows you to send a TIFF/JPG to an external program.
These simple features would really really speed up my work flow.

Photoshop cc 2014 and lightroom doesn't work

Hi,
I need your help.
Installed Photoshop and Lightroom as trial today.
Since 5 hrs I try to make them work and I am close of loosing my patience.
I have a laptop, windows 7, 64 bit.
Updated all the drivers.
Installed and deinstalled the products couple times.
Signed in and out of the cloud. And still having the same problem:
PS starts up normal and after few seconds just closes.
No error message. Then the message if I still want to use my trial pops up.
Lightroom doesn't start at all. After few seconds the trial message showes up.
What can I do?
I need the PS for my work.
Checked the crash reports and fixed the driver.
Also checked the aministrativ status.
Checked also numerous help from other users with the same issue and also YouTube.
Still having the problem.
Thank you for your help.

None of my "Edit In" worked with the pictures in Lightroom for a particular folder. I expanded the 2014 folder and found that two subfolders had a "?" in front of the 2014-07-04" and another. In other words, the folder was missing. After I found the missing folders using the Lightroom "Find Missing Folder" option, I was able to use the "Edit In" menu item. The 2014 folders weren't expanded at first, so I didn't see the ? marks in front of them. With the missing folders, Lightroom's "Edit In" option was basically telling me there was no picture to "Edit In." Howerver, I have Previews and Smart Previews made when I import picture files into Lightroom. So, the "pictures" showed in the slide strip on the bottom, and also in the display in "expand," but it was actually only showing the previews I had built, not the actual missing pictures in the missing folders. I had accidentally moved some directories using Windows Explorer, and I didn't realize my "happy fingers" moved them outside of Lightroom. Of course, Lightroom has no way of knowing I moved them, and just shows the "?" before the missing folder name. After expanding the root folder, then knew what to do. Fixed it easily. It was frustrating, and took about 20 minutes to see the problem. And that fixed the greyed-out "Edit In" Photoshop CC 2014, and all the other plug-ins were greyed out too.
Hope this fixes your problem.
