Lightroom 5 will not let me create new catalogs anymore???

I've been using Lightroom for a while now (since Version 3) and now all of the sudden it is failing to allow me to create new catalogs onto my drive. It will go as far as letting me select a destination and create a new folder and then nothing further. I am at a loss and it's probably an easy fix I am overlooking. Ideas?

These are the two screens I get when I go to create a new catalog. I can do nothing further after this stage.

  • Groups in Address book on iPad will not let me create a new group

    My address book on the iPad will not let me create a new group. The red ribbon is there and shows my groups that I already have, but when I click on the ribbon the plus sign does not appear on the group side to let me create one.
    Can anyone help me? I have turned it off and back on.

    You can't create new groups on a mobile device.

  • I want to add new songs to my ipod.  When I set it up with itunes years ago I had a different computer that I no longer have.  Now it will not let me add new songs to my ipod shuffle without erasing everything that is already on it.  Help!!!

    I want to add new songs to my ipod.  When I set it up with itunes years ago I had a different computer that I no longer have.  Now it will not let me add new songs to my ipod shuffle without erasing everything that is already on it.  Help!!!  Is there any way around this?

    Yes, I was aware of this but the phrase "Any items imported from audio CDs or acquired from other sources will not copy from your device to the iTunes library." is what worries me.  Will this eliminate my Notes, Calendar Events, etc or will it apply mostly just to the music?

  • Acrobat will not let me create a pdf. It says "Acrobate distiller has encountered a problem and needs to close."

    I'm using a PC to convert pagemaker files to PDF to send to the newspaper printer exactly as I have done for years. Suddenly Acrobat distiller will not let me create the pdf. Can anyone help me?@@

    I did think about that and if I have to I will do that, however there are about 50 songs. I have closed and reopened iTunes several times and I am sure that I have the latest version. It fails right away but I can click on the cloud download icon and download the song that it failed on ... therefore it is not that song "or any one song" causing the issue. Any ideas?

  • PC  will not let me create an iCloud account.

    I have a friend with a mac that wants to share his calendar with me. I have a PC and an apple account. I installed iCloud 3 on my PC but it will not let me create an iCloud account. What can I do to share my friends calendar?

    You can't create an iCoud account on a PC.  You can only create iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher.
    If you don't have one of these, your friend can only share his calendar with you as a public calendar, which will give you read-only access, but not as a private calendar with full access.  (Note: public calendars aren't viewable by the public at large, it gives you a private url to view the calendar.)

  • Lightroom will not let me import photos from either camera or desktop. I can see them in the preview part of Lightroom but when I click import, just says they can't be read.  HELP!

    Lightroom will not let me import photos from either my camera or my desktop. They show up in the preview bit of Lightroom and I select the ones i want to import, then add my metadata info etc and file handling, but then when I hit IMPORT just keeps saying they can't be read.  SO FRUSTRATING.

    You are copying the photos. Does LR have the permission to delete the files from its source location - as DdeGannes suggested? Maybe this dialog is misleading.
    Did you try to just add files copied to the destination before - just for finding the issue?
    If nothing helps: Any chance you can upload one of the jpg to some file sharing service so we can have look at it?
    I believe DdeGannes suggested permission on the Destination folder (not the source folder).  Performing a copy requires only Read&Write permission on the destination folder, not the source folder. You need to go into your operating system and change the permissions to Read&Write on the destination folder. (If you don't know how to do that, go to your favorite search engine and type in Change Permissions Mac)

    It means your file is too large to fit on a single layer disk.

  • Trying to import photos and copy as DNG. Nothing will upload though. Permissions are all accurate, saving to the right profile, etc. Nothing has changed on my computer but it will not let me import new pictures. Also, updated the software and some images

    trying to import photos and copy as DNG. Nothing will upload though. Permissions are all accurate, saving to the right profile, etc. Nothing has changed on my computer but it will not let me import new pictures. Also, updated the software and some images say "preview cannot be seen" and some don't. And when I try to import and I hit "new photos" it's all the photos on my card. My brain is about to explode.

    It said something similar where the thumbnails were supposed to be.
    Just got the newest edition of LR, 4.4
    4.4 is not the newest edition of LR
    We don't want to know that it said "something similar", we want to know the exact wording. In fact, you ought to state the exact problem you are having, in detail, instead of saying you are having the same problem.

  • Sync will not let me create a account. when prompted to create a password and when I hit the ok button it just flashes and the prompt box sows again asking me to create a password. how do I create a sync account when it will not even letme do so?

    why does sync not let me create a account? it will not take a a new password so that I can create a new sync acct.

    Hi there!
    It sounds like you have a Master Password set on your Firefox profile:
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Master_password
    When you try to set up a Sync account, Sync needs to access your password manager. The dialog you're seeing is asking for your Master Password, not asking to create a new password. Simply entering your Master Password should allow Sync setup to complete.
    Note that you'll need to enter your Master Password in order for Sync to do its thing; it'll ask once when you launch Firefox, but it won't keep bugging you after that.
    Hope this helps!

  • My ipad will not let me buy new apps?

    I'm trying to buy new books on my ipad and it will not let me buy any. Does anyone know how i can fix this.

    What stedman1 means is that if you had restrictions turned on, turn them off. You can get into installing apps if restrictions are turned off. There is no need to get in there.
    What is happening when you try to buy books? Are you getting an error message? "it will not let me" tells us nothing about what is going on. Please explain in greater detail.

  • It will not let me take a screenshot anymore

  • FCP will not let me create a new sequence

    I have been working on a doco project with many multicam clips, single angle clips, all in prores 422 1920x1080 30p, except a couple of clips that are NTSC DV. Anyway, all was well, and I ended up with a number of sequences (~10) with 5 that are what I am calling final. I sent my first sequence to color, and did my cc, and then sent back to FCP. All was fine, except the sequence does not make it back to FCP. In trying to sort it out, I also find that I am no longer able to create a new sequence at all. I can create a new project and copy sequences from one to another, but even in that new project, i can not create a new sequence. I can click it, but nothing happens. If I close the original project, and start with a blank project, then I can create new sequences there.
    So, the next thing I tried was to create a blank project, copy one of my final sequences (5 minutes long) from the orginal to the new project. Then I closed the original and sent to Color from there. I can then send back from color, I get my new sequence, but all of the multiclip media is now off line, and I can not locate it because after returning from color, the clips have strange names.
    Also- I began getting the odd error 34 when opening this project recently. So I suspect something is corrupt, but am unable to find it. I have to deliver on this one at the end of the week and am beginning to sweat. Any ideas are apprecieated!

    How about opening the original project that you SENT TO COLOR from? That is what I do. I haven't tried a new project.

  • Photoshop CS6 Will not open files\create new\function properly

    Hello,
    I have a licensed Photoshop CS6 installed on Windows 8.1 64bit.
    This morning the software has started to have the following issue:
    Photoshop will not create any new files (With the exclusion of spamming CTRL+N I have managed to open a new project)
    Photoshop will not load an existing file through its panel of any format (double click on file yet nothing happens)
    While trying to use any tool I have noticed that some of the clicks (Mouse or Keyboard) do not go through - some of them are being generated and some are not.
    Sometimes Photoshop will not respond to clicks - if I drag a window other it forcing explorer to refresh the desktop the changes are being shown - otherwise Photoshop will remain stuck
    After browsing the web for hours I have noticed a few people had similar issues as I have yet non of the steps which helped them to solve this issue have done any good to me.
    I have taken the following steps:
    Turned off "Use Graphic Processor"
    Re-booted my computer
    Re-installed Photoshop
    Updated my graphic card's drivers
    I have read another thread talking about some Nvidia cards which encounter issue with drivers yet I'm using an Radeon card - My PC spec:
    Intel i7-3770 @ 3.4GHz
    8GB RAM
    ATI Radeon R7 200
    Windows 8.1
    I have made the following video which describes the issues: (The black screen is me popping ALT+CTRL+DEL)

    Thank you in advance!

    We've heard of a few examples of this - but they always seem to come down to other applications interfering with UI in Photoshop, malware, or needing to reinstall the OS.
    There have only been a handful of reports, and we haven't been able to isolate the cause - but we know that it is something outside of Photoshop.  Sometimes it works shortly after rebooting the system, but then fails until the system is rebooted again (very strong evidence that the cause is outside of Photoshop).  A few people have reported that after reinstalling the OS, the problem went away.
