Lightroom 5 from cloud install - lost light room and it will not reinstall

I have had lightroom since version 3, made all the upgrades, last week I installed version 5 through the cloud and it would not start yet the cloud says it is up to date. I have spent all morning looking for an answer. I uninstalled lightroom 5 but the cloud still says it is installed. I deleted the odp file and restarted my computer several times and it still says it is installed and will not reinstall!
Trying to find an answer or a person to talk to has been a very poor experience for the likes of Adobe.

David Irvine please be aware you are posting in a public forum.  I have edited your previous post to remove your e-mail address.
What four files are you referring too?  The only file referenced being removed is the OPM.db file.
What process did you utilize to remove Photoshop Lightroom 5?  What operating system are you wishing to install Photoshop Lightroom on?

    I installed Photoshop Elements 11 on a new computer a month ago. It opened several times until yesterday. I uninstalled it and now am trying to reinstall from the CDs that I own and it will not read the disk. Nothing happens. I had previously downloaded it to my laptop and work computer. How do I install it again?

    You can't run PSE from a USB drive, nor can you transfer PSE to a different computer via a USB drive. PSE must be installed on a computer using the installer program provided by Adobe.

    I cannot seem to load raw images into LR 2.5.  I've been using this for years.  I always load from memory card, but it gives me an unknown error message.  I tried to load from camera, hard drive, & external drive and still will not work.  I checked import menu and nothing has changed.  I loaded the photos onto my tablet and images are fine, so do not feel it is the memory card.  Any thoughts?

    The error message probably said "unsupported or damaged"
    The T3 requires Lightroom 3.4.1 or later. You can either upgrade to a more current version of Lightroom (version 5.6 is the most recent) or you can use the free Adobe DNG Converter to convert the RAWs to DNG, which should import into Lightroom properly.

    Do you have a new Apple ID to use in NZ? If not open iTunes Store. Log out of your old Apple ID, then try to login. Select Create Apple ID from the dialog that appears. Make a new Apple ID for NZ with a NZ email address. Once that is approved and verified, log into the iTunes Store with the new Apple ID. This should fix all other issues.

  • After an upgrade from Power mac G5 to iMac and PS will not run... Error - 150:30.  Seems to be a Licensing issue.  Any ideas? Works fine on the old Powermac...

    Delighted with the new iMac but I have had an old version of CS4 for years now and it will not run on the new machine.  I have tried Adobe customer care chat but it seems that nobody is available right now.  Can anyone help?

    I cannot locate the Flexnet folder by the way.... and the License recovery tool tells me that ....
    You can’t open the application “LicenseRecoveryLauncher” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.
    Where do I go from here please?

    In a market economy people get paid for their work via companies who charge for their products.  Adobe employs people who are working all the time, and therefore chooses to require pay-for upgrades periodically to generate more revenue.  The reason they switched to the cloud was to even out their revenue stream even more.  You can pay US$10/month and get the current versions of LR and PS as long as you keep paying.
    Just because many people are upset when they realize they'll have to spend more money for software because they got a new camera doesn't make the producer of the software bad or mean that the feelings are justified and it's someone else's fault.
    What should happen differently: that society be communist and all software be produced by and doled out from the government so political decisions govern what is available and who gets it, or a more socialist society where retired workers get more things for free or at reduced cost due to they're not working anymore, or what is your specific idea for what should be changed?
    As far as your crumbs and loaf analogy, Adobe is a publically-traded, for-profit company.  If people are getting rich from gouging seniors then you should have purchased stock a long time ago and get a piece of those supposedly extraordinary profits as dividends for yourself and you can vote in the shareholder meetings to give more software to whatever groups you deem more worthy.  And if you're across a border and things are much more expensive due to government policies or taxes and if you're a citizen of that society and organize and get people to vote differently and change the system.
    If you're coming here for solutions about how work with new camera raws in older software keep your question to that.  If you're wanting people to agree that you're justified in being upset by complaining that Adobe is bad then you've probably come to the wrong place.

  • I have installed a free download from an older version adobe reader and it will not uninstall?

    Most programs unistall easily from the control panels add/remove programs icon application.
    This older version i installed on my computer will not uninstall.
    Any sggestions.
    It tends to stall out or not uninstall at all.
    There is not even an unistall choice available any more on the add/remove programs.

    You can try using this tool to remove all traces of previous version(s) of Reader:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, you can download the offline Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • I purchased a free app from app store for iPhone 5 and it will not download; just gives me the little cloud with arrow pointing down. I have version 7.1.2 What do I do?

    I purchased a free app from App Store for my iPhone 5s, iOS version 7.1.2. It will not download; just gives me the little cloud with arrow pointing down. What do I need to do to get the app to load?

    Hello mjhardy,
    After reading your post, it sounds like you are experiencing an error while downloading apps. You may want to consider restarting the device first, and then resetting if that does not work. This article provides detailed instructions for Restarting, and Reseting:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    How to restart
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
    After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
    How to reset
    You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities,
    BobbyD

  • Light Room 4 plugins will not work, problem validating.

    I bought LR 3 on Ebay, apparently with a bad serial number,  so I bought LR 4,per instruction in the plug in manager page.  Problem is plug ins will not work,  error msg says serial number is bad.  Support says serial number is good but can not fix it..  Support sent me to a link to download latest LR 4, of course this would not work.  Support says that is all they can do as they only support LR 5???
    Any ideas, maybe registry edit, some hidden file in win 8.1 ????

    See Jeffrey Friedl's Blog » Plugin Registration : "I do not permit the use of my plugins on pirated copies of Lightroom" and you can find other comments in this post Jeffrey Friedl's Blog » Lightroom 3 Released; Update on my Plugins (search the page for the word "pirate"). I've also seen much more recent private (hint) comments along the same lines.

  • PSE 11 editor has stopped importing from scanner, no longer permits drag and drop, will not permit cropping, and other bizarre issues

    Windows 8.1, PSE 11
    I am having a number of issues including loss of import functionality from scanner, I can't drag and drop photos into the editor any more as well, or at least not after the first one. The crop function stops working after the first couple of photos.  Then some freezing.  A little added crashing.  A plethora of other bizarre issues as well.  This just stated happening a couple of days ago. 
    What I have tried:
    Uninstall/Install. 
    Deleted preferences both before opening Editor (crontrol-alt-delete) and after opening it. 
    Kindly advise.  Thanks!

    OK! Check it, like I said in previous posts I seemed to have narrowed it down to specific mp3s not converting and playing in their native sample rate which if paired with another sample would give you the "audio midi sync" error and basically screw up your clock! It appears mp3 files converting to mp3 using iTunes would not convert to the correct sample rate if set to something other than 44 in logic and cause this. A tad peculiar Apple iTunes won't work with Apple Logic. I was able to confirm this on two mac's via my friend in Florida. He's running Tiger and tried the same experiment and Booya! Mickey Mouse! It appears this insane week long adventure has came to an end (...god willing) with a super specific unlucky shot in the dark on my part finally revealed to be an perfectly normal function of Logic (obviously one i'm not fond of..) As far as the errors / crashes / system overloads / kernal panics I think I can sort those out to the mackie onyx satellite not being a good choice and trying to add and remove firewire devices in the middle of the sample rate mayhem. Wow! all I can say is, I'm glad it's over
    Wish me a lot of luck in the future.. I'm sure i'll need it!

  • C4650 Will only print black from the internet. MS Word and PS will not print in black but has color.

    Before you think I just haven't tried anything, let me run you down with the whole lot:
    -HP PhotoSmart C4650
    -Windows Vista
    -Problem: My printer won't print in black --but-- this only goes for Microsoft applications it seems. If I have a page of text in black, when printing from MS Word, the page comes out blank, however the printer is actually "printing" back and forth. IF, however I print from my browser, from email, or a webpage, picture, google docs, etc, black prints *just fine.* So far this holds true for both MS Word and PhotoShop CS5. Issue: Black ink simply doesn't print from any program other than a browser.
    -NO. The cartridge isn't empty. NO. It's not incompatible. NO. The cartridge head isn't dry and I am not going to soak it in water. This is a new cartridge. It's the official HP brand.
    I've done a search and I've found that a few people seem to have this "only print from the internet" problem, however none of these was solved. The only advice that an HP support member gave to one of them is to "install XP service pack 2" however.. I am not running XP. A few other people get the opposite issue where they can only print color from the internet and not from the computer's applications.
    I don't know much about printers but it sounds like some kind of driver issue. Yes. I've already searched for, uninstalled and reinstalled drivers. Whenever I have to print something, I now try to open it up in my firefox just so I can be able to print black. It's quite the hassle. Almost seems like some kind of ploy to cause people to buy new ink cartridges when it's not really empty.
    -Yes, I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the printer.
    -Updated my windows (although idk how that would help. But I know it's going to be a suggestion anyway.)
    Is there any known fix or should i chuck it off the balcony and go get a lexmark?

  • HT3986 after installing windows via bootcamp and windows will not boot

    trying to boot up the windows half all i see if a blinking folder with a question mark and after several reboots it may/may not work
    the installation seem fine nothing happened i got no errors so i am wondering what is happening.

    you don't have enough details for us /. you don't have a good install / did you login and setup the account once? / does it have enough free space / was the DVD burned from an ISO?
    There are lots of things but not from your remarks.
    What version Windows / what Mac year model and whether Boot Camp Assistant drivers were installed / how large a partition / read the guide
    www.apple.com/support/bootcamp has it all

  • Installed 10.4 update and itunes will not open

    Installed itunes10.4 32 bit version - after successful installation itunes will not open
    any advise?

    Update to my last post.  I have finally "fixed" whatever problem was causing the Apple software products to malfunction on my PC, Windows Vista 32 Bit SP2.  After updating to iTunes 10.4 and Safari 5.1, a series of error messages would appear:1) AppleSyncNotifier.exe 2) iTuneshelper.exe 3) iTunes Failed to properly install - Error 7 (Windows error 126).  I had tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes & Safari as well as downdating iTunes to an earlier version, but this had all failed to correct the problem and the error messages still appeared when the programs were suppose to have been removed. 
    I ended up using the Windows Program Manager (in Control Panel) to remove every single Apple product from my PC, including the Apple Installer.  Then I restarted the system.  Taking bits and pieces of advice from this forum, I started the system, went to the Apple website, downloaded and SAVED the newest iTunes version (which includes QuickTime), but did not run the program.  Then I disconnected from the net, turned off all virus and firewall protections, and finally installed the saved iTunes program.  It took an extraordinarily long time to complete the install, but I was able to restore my libraries from my iPod Touch (4th gen) by performing a simple sync.  I reconnected to the net and updated the device software . . . so far, so good [knock on wood], no error messages yet.  I will add each of the removed programs as they are needed in the future so that whatever conflict exists can be fixed - until then, I'm at least happy to have iTunes back!  Hope this is helpful to someone and saves them the 4 hours it took me to get back on track
