Lightroom 5 reinstall failed

Due to a language change I deinstalled several already downloaded CC programs on my computer.
After that I got all back again except Lightroom 5. In my Apps panel Lightroom 5 is announced as updated but I don't have it on my system. And worse - I have no idea how to get it back. This is how it is now for about three weeks.
I need Lightroom and would be very happy if I could get any help.

  • Lightroom 2.5 fails to start

    Hi,
    I cannot get Lightroom 2.5 to start anymore. I was running 2.4 and upgraded to 2.5. After the upgrade Lightroom was running fine for some time. All of a sudden it failed to start up however. I tried deleting the Lightroom Preferences file but this does not help. I then uninstalled Lightroom completely, reinstalled Lightroom 2.5. Then it started up. When I tried to import some new photos however I ran into this issue: Method not found: View attribute
    I then had to kill Lightroom using the task manager and now Lightroom again fails to start up completely..
    I don't see any messages in the Windows event log.
    I run Windows Vista.
    Any ideas?
    regards

    I have now downgraded to 2.4 (uninstall 2.5, install 2.4) and everything seems to be fine again. I think I will leave Lightroom 2.5 for what it is..

  • How many times can you install Lightroom 5? My problem is that I have saved my programs on C. To I have more space, I want to save my programs now on E. Can I now uninstall Lightroom and reinstall from C to E? Can I use the same license code as the first

    Please help!!

    Thank you for your answers, it helps me a lot.
    But sorry for my ignorance. I understand how you mean it, but I don't know how to do it. I'm scared to lose the settings/edits of the images.

  • OS X Mountain Lion Recovery - reinstall failed with erase reinstall

    iMac mid-2007 Mac OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2. Grey screen on start up (day before got three messages that HP printer software update was available but no software could be found when I tried to update. Other than that iMac was working fine the day before).
    Did all steps recommended for Grey Screen on Start Up and did not fix it. Used Command R - Disk Utility to try to repair the hard drive. Disk Utility said it could not repair the disk, to back up files and reformat the disk. From the Recovery System menu, selected Disk Utility - Erase to erase hard drive. Erase worked. Quit Disk Utility. Selected Reinstall Mac OS X from the Recovery System menu. System says "downloading additional components" and it will take 3 hours to download, even though we have highspeed broadband (Comcast) internet. Left it to continue overnight. Came back in the a.m. and giant warning message says Reinstall Failed-Contact Software Manufacturer or Restart to Try Again. Restart said Disk Utility could not repair the hard drive. Disk Utility said hard drive was unmounted and Mount would not mount it.
    Shut down and started again with Command R. Used Disk Utility - Erase to erase the hard drive again. Erase seemed to work again. Hard drive mounted. Quit Disk Utility and selected Reinstall Mac OS X from the Recovery System menu. Once again waiting an estimated 2 1/2 hours for additional components to download.
    Am I missing something? If it fails again this time, is there anything else I can do or must I take it in to be repaired (no longer covered under Apple Care Protection Plan due to age of iMac).

    Well, if Disk Utility cannot repair the drive, one other option is to use Disk Warrior ($$). That would mean having to boot from their CD or having it installed on an external bootable clone and trying it from there. But, I'm guessing that your hard drive is about to fail (permanently) - nothing to do with the software.
    You might want to consider making an appointment at your nearest Genius Bar - help there is free unless you need a repair or hard drive replacement - you'd need to pay for that of course. But at least you'd get their diagnosis; they have better testing equipment that a consumer has access to.

  • Lightroom 5.0 fails to automatically open import dialog when memory card inserted

    Lightroom 5.0 fails to detect memory card and open import dialog. This has always worked fine in Lightroom 4, 3,and 2.  Same cards, same camera, same iMac using OS X 10.8.4. Manual importing works OK, card is detected just fine.

    I have tested Lightroom 4 and Lightroom 5 on Mac OSx 10.9.4 and find no difference in behavior.
    If you have correctly set Image Capture to auto-launch Lightroom on insertion of card and you have set Lightroom to launch the Import dialog upon insertion of card, this is expected behavior:
    1. If Lightroom is not open open, inserting a Memory Card will launch Lightroom without opening the Import Dialog
    2. If Lightroom is open already, inserting a Memory Card will open the Import Dialog.
    I can find no combination of settings in Lightroom 4 or 5 that allow you to, with Lightroom closed, insert a card and have Lightroom launch and open the Import dialog. I would sure love to see someone produce a screen vid capture of Lightroom 4 opening by itself and launching an import dialog upon card insertion with no user intervention.

  • Firefox unusable; reset, uninstall & reinstall fail; I am at a loss.

    About a month and a half ago, my Firefox started freezing. I soon gave up as it became unusable, but I only did so after changing some settings for running Adobe Flash and also running a reset on Firefox (retaining my profile information).
    I would like to reuse Firefox, so I trawled through the various support forums, gave up and decided to reinstall Firefox completely, after having exported my bookmarks. I followed instructions and also deleted any Firefox folders (including in AppData for all users); I then deleted all 'folders' that I could find in the Registry. Then I rebooted.
    When I opened Firefox, it immediately crashed again. Looking at the forums, I checked my plugins using 'plugincheck'. The only vulnerable ones were Java (which is apparently the latest) and "Shockwave FlashShockwave Flash 12.0 r0 ". I tried to update Flash, but Firefox crashed as I tried to do it.
    I then went to a new page (ft.com), and immediately got the now common error, 'Plugin container for Firefox has stopped working', and Firefox completely freezes. Generally I have to use the Task Manager to close it.
    It's very confusing for me. Yet I built my PC and am fairly technically able. I have spent about four hours on this today - and I just don't have much time to spend troubleshooting.
    I have seen that I can enter 'about:config' in the address bar, search for dom.ipc and Set dom.ipc.plugins.enabled to 'false'. I did not do this, but it was a suggestion made on a support query. The person reinstalled Windows a month or so later, so perhaps this was not the best fix.
    I have also run Firefox in Safe mode, and the same 'Plugin container' problem occurs. I have seen that my anti-malware program, McAfee, does not block 'plugin-container.exe' and Firefox has full internet access.
    I would appreciate a sensible road map for fixing this issue.

    Hi Cor-el,
    I tried to load WinDbg, but I could only find one version of the Windows 7 SDK.
    I used:<br />
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/hh852365
    being the link from<br />
    https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/How_to_get_a_stacktrace_with_WinDbg
    The latter says I need a 32-bit version, but when I downloaded the file<br />
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=8279<br />
    under the heading<br />
    Standalone Debugging Tools for debugging Windows XP and Windows Vista<br />
    it didn't give me an option for 32-bit file.
    I tried to search Microsoft for a Windows 7 version of Windbg, but I couldn't find one.
    As noted earlier, I cannot use the Firefox crash reporter, because Firefox hangs, rather than crashes.
    The file in the x64 WinDbg is shown below. The problem I noted is that it would not start Firefox.
    I tried Debug/Go, but Firefox would not start.
    I think I need the 32 bit version of WinDbg, but I don't know where I can find it.
    Can you help and more?
    Best regards,
    euser01

  • Lightroom 5 Installation Failed

    I recently purchased the Photographers' package which allowed me to install Photoshop CC and Lightroom 5. I didn't install the apps until I received my new Ultrabook a few weeks later. Seeing that this was a fresh system, I had no issues installing Photoshop CC.  Lightroom 5 however kept running into failed installations. I kept retrying but everytime it reaches 43%, it fails. The error message is below:
    Exit Code: 7
    Please see specific errors below for troubleshooting. For example,  ERROR:

  • Lightroom Mobile sync fail

    Well, it sounded good, so I tried it, on just 6 images, those worked, so then I set a larger number, yes, a massive 26 images, yes, that is 26, not 26,000.
    It just sits there, and the six images that were visible on iOS are now gone, (I did move them to the new 26 photo collection, so that could be why)
    In iOS the new "Collection" name shows up  along with the number of photos that should be in it, but there are none after 12 hours. I've tried uninstalling and reinstall of LR mobile, no difference.
    On LR desktop the collection has has 26 photos in it, syncing is on, the almost invisible sync tag is showing alongside the collection.   The only thing it has managed to do is remove the previous testt folder, so I am now down to 0 photos on Lightroom mobile. Not impressive.
    So, questions:
    1. Is it possible to tell from Lightroom (desktop) the status of a sync. i.e have they uploaded and the problem is in the iOS version, or not even uploaded.
    2. Is it possible to use a web browser to see what has uploaded - i.e. check that the images are in the Adobe "cloud"
    3. how long should it take to sync 24 off 5184x3456 pixel jpegs?  (I have both my laptop and phone liked to a 60MB/s fibre broadband connection - being Virgin Media the upload is a bit pitiful at only 2MB/s - but still, surely it shouldn't take days? - the exact same images uploaded to Alamy in about 15 mins)
    4. within the setting fly-out on the LHS on LR Mobile. there are sliders for "Sync only over WiFi", Show touches" & "collect usage data". The first two are set to off, the last one to send data to Adobe is on. None of them can be changed. Same on iPad and iPhone.  Presumably they should be selectable or there wouldn't be an option - can anyone tell me how to enable this?
    P.S. I just found a sort of solution to Q.4., when re-installing you get to select those options, not phrased consistently with the options screen, but that seems to do it, but a bit mad you have to delete all your photos and data in order to change a setting, there must be another way.  There is a Setting within the iOS Settings, Lightroom, "Use Mobile Data" which you can slide to "off" position, but it makes seemingly no difference to the setting shown in Lightroom itself, which stays showing it will sync - are these supposed to be linked / synced or not?
    My iOS device (iPhone + iPad) see the new "Collection" name, but have no photos in then
    Perhaps LR mobile is all a bit embryonic and I should wit for it to mature a bit, but I thought just syncing a few images wouldn't be too challenging
    Thanks for any help.

    Thank you Guido,
    It seems all I needed to do was wait, and then wait a bit more, and then wait a little longer.  It took about 14 hours to sync the 26 images - no progress bar air any clue on what progress there was, it just went from zero when I looked after about 13 hours to all 26 images after 15 hours.
    So not exactly a reliable tool currently if you need to rely on the transfer.  the same images are in my dropbox account, i did a test duplicating them, and they took about 6 minutes to sync between iPad and mac on the same network - i.e. uploading to DropBox 'cloud' then downloading the iPad.
    As I said before, seems a little embryonic perhaps, I think I will probably use it as a 'slide viewer' until the sync becomes a little quicker.
    Thanks for your message, and thankfully didn't need the diagnostics this time.

  • Help needed: PS CC2014 Update failed, then after uninstalling reinstall failed. Initial error code U44M1I210 (when update failed), now error -55 (reinstall fail)

    I tried to update Photoshop CC 2014, but it failed at 75%, with error code U44M1I210. After restarting my system, it still failed so I uninstalled the app, per this article: https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-u44m1i210-installing-updates-ccm.html
    Now the reinstall won't complete, and I'm getting error -55. The one other article that seemed relevant looks like the person had to uninstall and reinstall all his Adobe software after creating a new admin account on his computer (When I try to update I get an U44M1I210 error message, "Unable to extract the downloaded files" - help please, applies to latest Indesign, Illustrator and Photoshop CC), and I'm hoping there is a better solution than the hours that will involve.
    Running on OSX 10.7.5.
    Any help greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    GundamCat what specific errors were you able to discover in the installation log for the update?

  • PLEASE HELP Lightroom 5 assertion failed.

    I followed the below fix and still get assertion failed
    Open Windows Explorer.
    Go to C:\Users\[your user name]\.
    Check for the folder named Pictures.
    If you don't see the folder, create a folder named Pictures under folder C:\Users\[your user name]\.
    Restart Lightroom. If the error recurs, restart your computer, then retry. If the error recurs, continue to the next step.
    Click the Windows Start button.
    Type "regedit" in the Search program and files field, and press the Enter key.
    Back up your registry by choosing File > Export. Give the backup copy of the registry a name and location you can remember.
    Navigate to the registry key: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer \User Shell Folders]
    Look at the value for the My Pictures entry. The Windows default is: %USERPROFILE%\Pictures, which is the Pictures folder under C:\Users\[your user name]. If another folder is listed, check Windows Explorer for that folder. If it does not exist, you have two options. (1) Create the folder with that name in the location indicated in the registry entry. (2) If the Pictures folder exists under your user name folder, double-click the My Pictures entry, and reset the value to: %USERPROFILE%\Pictures
    Quit the registry editor.
    Log off from your account and back on, or restart your computer, then restart Lightroom 5.4.

    The locations for preference files are usually hidden at the OS level by default.
    If you tell us which OS and version, you are using we can probably give specific advice. Barring that read here: http://www.lightroomforums.net/showthread.php?14226-Resetting-(or-Trashing-)-the-Lightroom -Preferences-file

  • Acrobat Pro X reinstall Fails

    I received an Acrobat Pro update notification and started the update process. Update failed and the message said it needed to uninstall and reinstall Acrobat Pro.
    I followed Adobe’s advice. But I have not been able to get Acrobat Pro to finish installing on my MacPro (desktop) runs on OSX 10.9.5. I have read lots of help files, and group discussions. I have tried all sorts of things including uninstalling various ways and reinstalling various ways. I tried other utilities to scrub residual Adobe files. I've tried installing as root user, in safe mode, etc.
    My Acrobat Pro is part for the CS6 suite. It is an original CS6 install disk (not a download). Other parts of CS6 suite are working fine. Along the way I've rebuilt permissions and done various disk maintenance several times. I even had to restore from Time Machine once.
    Throughout all of this, about the same thing always happens. The CS installer runs fine for everything up to the last stage of installation for Acrobat. When the installer finishes, it says Acrobat install failed. The latest error log is below.
    My Acrobat Pro was able to update until 11.0.09 Pro update on 9/11/14. Before the latest update and Acrobat actually runs, and works fine. The main indicator that something isn't right is that when I try to update it, the update (also seems to run OK until about the end but then) says it can't update Acrobat because something has been changed. The other CS applications run and update fine.
    I lost the Acrobat Pro Since I uninstalled and have not been able to reinstall back to my CS6 suite. I'm tired of trying things without knowing what I'm trying to fix. It's clear that this type of problem is pretty widespread with Adobe Acrobat. So, does anyone really understand what the problem with their installer is??

    Hi Anoop,
    Thank you for the response. But It did not work. I already tried running my
