Lightroom 5 error message upon import, won't work with symlinks, can't fix!

Mac MPR with SSD, I have always had my /pictures and /documents folders symlinked with Dropbox.. I just installed Lightroom 5, and when I click "Import", it says, "AgPathUtils.getStandardFilePath: can't create directory at:" /User/Pictures.. Please, does anyone know how to fix this WITHOUT killing my symlinks?? I can't believe that such an expensive software can't follow the links to the right path, or at least let me specify WHERE to look.. As it is, I can't do anything with Lightroom until i can fix this..
ANY help would be greatly appreciated!

  • Okay so my IPod touch 4 won't play music through any headphone I put into the port. I've tried it with 4-5 different headphones but it still won't work.  How can I fix this?

    Okay so my IPod touch 4 won't play music through any headphone I put into the port. I've tried it with 4-5 different headphones but it still won't work.  How can I fix this? This isn't the first time something like this has happened but it has never stayed this way for such a long time. If I have to send it in for repairs I will but I'm not sure if its under warranty

    To check for warranty coverage:
    https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for theother 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

    There is no way to consolidate iTunes accounts.
    Setting up an iPhone has never required creation of a new Apple ID.
    You've apparently purchased content with both Apple ID's.  Sign into the device with the correct Apple ID and sync the content.

  • When i go to burn a dvd, it gives an error message "menu duration exceeds 15 minutes." how can i fix this??

    When I go to burn a dvd, imovie displays an error message, "menu duration exceeds 15 minutes.  How do I fix?

    You may have too many chapters (scene selections), or perhaps one or more of the menus are looping for too long. Each menu in its standard form generally runs for no more than 30 seconds before repeating. In any of the menus have you inserted your own music that runs for a much longer duration? If so, using the Inspector, reduce the music time to 30 seconds (there is a slider you can adjust).
    Regarding chapters - how many do you have in the project? You may need to delete some markers in your iMovie project. In most of the iDVD themes each scene selection page allows up to 6 scenes. So, for example, if you have 50 scenes marked, the theme would require 9 scene selection pages. I really don't know what the maximum is, but clearly you've run over the 15 minute limit for the iDVD menus. It may be a combination of too many chapters and music looping for too long on one or more of the menus.

  • I open iTunes and I received this error message (-45054), then my iTunes closes. How can I fix this?

    After the latest update I did, 23Oct2013 7:30pm PT, my iTunes no longer opens up without the error message (-45054). I click "ok" to acknowledge the message and it immediately closes iTunes with no further information. Any help would be greatly appreciated, expecially if it's an actual employee of Apple. They seem to be way to into the user-helping-user system they need to step up.

    A fellow musican I know had an identical issue with this and asked me to check it out.  I fixed it and wrote a long set of instructions on my blog.  His problem was with 10.6 but it was an update he did preparing to move to Mavericks.
    I was able to reproduce the error by just removing the /Shared folder from /Users

  • I am getting error message windows saying "ininstall set" constantly. How can I fix this problem

    When I opened Firefox4 today it opened with an add-on page and an error message box with an exclamation point saying "uninstall set". I can do nothing in Firefox until I close these windows. This seems to occur on things that can be clicked on to open information.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Lightroom Camera Raw Plug-in won't work with Panasonic RW2

    I've just upgraded to Lightroom 5.7 (from 4) essentially to access the RW2 RAW files from my new Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS50 (DMC-TZ70) as this camera is supposed to be supported by the camera raw plug-in (link).
    Basically I got fed up of messing with the DNG converter and wanted inbuilt support for these files.
    However having installed 5, upgraded to 5.7 (& rebooted) it still won’t read these RW2 files - the import tells me that the RW2 format is not supported.
    According to the About info I've got Lightroom 5.7 and Camera Raw 8.7, installed. However I have download the camera raw plug-in 8.8 installer (link), copied it to the Lightroom directory and run it, but it's still saying Camera Raw 8.7 in the About screen and I still can’t access these files.
    What am I doing wrong?

    The link you posted had all the details to indicate that your camera is not currently supported by any release of Lightroom. It is only currently supported by Camera Raw version 8.8 which is a plug-in that cannot be used by Lightroom (and only by Photoshop). Adobe's free DNG Converter can be used to convert your RW2 files to DNG which is supported by any Lightroom release. Download it here:

  • My 4s has a blank homescreen, that is, no icons, and Siri won't work. How can I fix it?

    I have a 4s and recently updated to the newest ios. Also, today I changed my homescreen photo and lock photo, and gave a game access to my photos. Tongith when I was playing a game, my phone became very sluggish and knocked me out of the game. It wouldn't let me back in, so I powered off the phone. When I turned it back on, the homescreen had no icons. It only showed my background photo, AT&T signal, Wifi signal, time and battery power. It lets me pull up the notification list and control center, but that is all. Siri doesn't work, either. I can answer calls but when I hang up, it doesn't dim the end button or go back to the homescreen, it just gets stuck with the caller's identity and the end button. I have turned it off and on several times, plugged it in even though it has over 50% of battery remaining, I have reset it by tapping the power button 5 times, and I have reset it by holding the power button with the home button. It hasn't fixed the problem. What else can I do? And, what could have caused this? I was just playing a game.

    This is my exact issue too,
    I can temporarily restore this function by going to
    Settings
    General
    Siri, and turning Siri off then on again. 
    But after some hours, or by the next day it happens again.  Hope this helps.

  • Since updating to Mavericks, Mail doesn't work properly.  It just stops working (no error messages--it just won't check for new mail) and I must shut it down and reopen it to get it working again.  Any suggestions?

    Since updating to Mavericks, Mail doesn't work properly.  It just stops working (no error messages--it just won't check for new mail) and I must shut it down and reopen it to get it working again.  Any suggestions?

    Try to force quit the mail app
    Double tap the home button. When you see the app previews on the screen scroll sideways if needed to get the preview in question on the screen. Flick that preview up and off the screen to close the app. Single tap the home button or home screen preview to exit the mode.
    Failing that, go into the settings, mail, contacts and calendars and remove your account info then put it back in and see if that works

  • Putting video clips (mov) in to edit work place time line after photos (jpeg) getting error message, the importer reported a generic error. ? please help thanks

    premier elements12, putting video clips (mov) in to edit work place time line after photos (jpeg) error message, the importer reported a generic error. ? please help.

    TINA54
    Thanks for the reply.
    Some general comments...
    Regarding:
    THERE ANY WAY I CAN PUT MULTIPLE RANDUM TRANSITIONS IN TO THE TIME LINE WITH JUST ONE CLICK ? .
    There is no transition choice for random transitions across the Premiere Elements 12 workspace Timeline. But, the Elements Organizer 12/Create Menu/Slideshow and its Slideshow Editor does have that random transition choice. So, one possibilitity would be to create your slideshow in Elements Organizer 12 Slideshow Editor and then move the slideshow into Premiere Elements with the Output of Edit with Premiere Elements Editor command.
    Pending more details of the slideshow you are creating, I think that you would get your best photo quality and overall results staying with Premiere Elements 12 workspace (1080p) project and the transitions randomized manually.
    perhaps applying the default to all (all at the same time),
    using Timeline Menu/Apply Default Transition,
    and then replacing transitions randomly for the random transition look).
    Please let us know if any of that worked for you.
    Thanks.

  • Error message when importing CD's into iTunes.

    I've just started getting an error message when importing audio CD's into itunes. +"Error occured while converting the file "........". The disk could not be read from or written to."+ I've been importing CDs for years now and this just started happening last night. The disk image shows up on the desktop, itunes opens and recognizes the disk and searches the database and finds the artist/track names/album etc. Then when I click the import button, I get this message. If I click on the disk image in the desktop and click on a specific file it will play through iTunes. No new changes except for maybe downloading the latest iTunes update. Any suggestions? Thank you very much in advance.

    Every time I import a CD, mp3 is louder then AAC. It's just every so often if I try AAC the volume will be really low. Like barely hearable. Maybe it has to with the fact the CD was released long before AAC format was around? Something to do with compatibility maybe?
    Iron-Mike, MP3 and AAC were both invented well after CD audio and both algorithms are well aware of CD format. Make sure you have "Soundcheck" settings turned on both for iTunes playback and for CD burning. iTunes Soundcheck is supposed to normalize the volumes in spite of variations in the files. Many people have noticed that they don't really work very well, but having them on is better than nothing.

    Don't worry I've sorted it! I just had to turn off Reminders as well in iCloud. Calendar then worked fine, even when I turned Calendar and Reminders back on.

  • QuickTime Version 7.0d0 Error Message Upon Installation

    Hi,
    Once I have downloaded the latest iTunes and installed it, I get an error message upon trying to open it which reads as follows;
    QuickTime version 7.0d0 is installed, iTunes requires QuickTime Version 7.1.3 or later. Please reinstall iTunes.
    At first, I did as the error message said, and reinstalled iTunes. I still got the same error message after I did that. So I then downloaded QuickTime on it's own, but that still didn't work.
    Could anyone help me?
    Thanks,
    Luke.
