Lightroom Beta 3--Slideshow Problem

I am unable to change the order of the slides/images in Slideshow. I can drag the images, but the image "snaps back" and the order does not change. "Help" says you should be able to move images if you have a "collection" without a subfolder, and I do not have a subfolder. Any ideas?

The beta forum is at

In general if you are in a collection(but not a smart collection), you should be able to drag and drop images to create a user sort order.

Lightroom 5 slideshow problems

I am having display problems in the slideshow in Lightroom 5. lightroom 4 has no problem on the same machine (13"macbook on 107.7.5)
The display goes cloudy and the colors go negative, any help welcome.

I recommend using ShowBiz instead of Lr's impromptu slideshow feature:
* Starts immediately.
* Slides are true full-screen (or can/should be).
* Previews are built asynchronously (i.e. concurrently, while slideshow is playing) and slideshow won't go on to the next slide until preview has been built (unless you explicitly configure it to do so), no never a sub-quality image is displayed, nor ever the "loading..." indicator.
* Color and quality is "perfect" (unlike Lr's impromptu slideshow feature for some of us, which @Lr5-beta has wonky color/tone).
* Performance is not tied to number of photos in filmstrip (unless thousands of previews need to be built for them, in which case Lr can start to crawl after a spell).
The other option is to use publishing services and maintain a tree (or flat folder) of all your images at the ready for 3rd party slideshow software (consider TreeSync Publisher for that).

Here is a snippet from a discussion on another forum that includes a quote from Jeff Schewe, whom I consider to be a very good source for reliable information:
Look, I'll make it REAL simple...
TIFF = Good
PSD = Bad
PSD is now a bastardized file format that is NOT a good idea to use. Even the Photoshop engineers will tell you that PSD is no longer the Photoshop "native" file format. It has no advantages and many disadvantages over TIFF.
TIFF is publicly documented, PSD is not. That makes TIFF a preferred file format for the long term conservation of digital files.
And, let me be blunt, anybody who thinks PSD is "better" than TIFF is ignorant of the facts. If Adobewould let them, the Photoshop engineers would tell you to quit using PSD.

Lightroom ver 1.0 will not allow me to install it. I get an error stating I must uninstall an earlier version 1st. Problem is when I attempt to uninstall beta 3, it looks for the installation package which has been deleted. The error I get is "a network error occured while attempting to read the file lightroom beta\lightroom_b3_standalone_07-18.msi.
Any help would be appreciated.

Adobe Lightroom Beta...

I have been running the Adobe Lightroom Beta since the beta released. I am wondering about two things:
1. I heard that BETA testers are getting a greater discount than the public rate of $199.00 how do I go about getting this discount? Does anyone know? Also, I have had a problem with is re-exposing my images. There are no defaults set, however as soon as I import and image and click on it is adjust the levels automatically, making the tones more dull and the lighting much darker?? Any input regarding this, I would love to hear....
~Jessica

You can get it at a discount of $169 by using following promo code - Macworld07
It was suppose to expire on 2/19 but it still works.

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.

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom has encountered a problem and needs to close. (ver 1.4.1)

I completed a search for this problem here and other forums, and found very useful information, however, I still need help. My laptop is an HP Pavillion dv1000, Intel Centrino, Windows XP, 1.24G of RAM; Camera is a Canon 5D, shooting JPEG only.
After a couple of weeks enjoying a vacation in the Caribbean, it was time to load all the new pics in the computer. I removed the card from my camera and using windows explorer, downloaded all pics in MyPictures folder. I created a new folder for this trip, and while I was there, I decided to reorganize several folders from previous trips. I renamed and moved folders around, deleted pictures, etc. (I believe that all the changes that I made created my problem.)
Once I finished all the changes with my folders, I launched Lightroom (ver 1.4.1) with the idea of synchronizing the folders and start working on my new pictures. After apx 8 seconds, I got the message: Adobe Photoshop Lightroom has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
After a google search, I found a lot of potential answers to my problem, including this one, which I tried:
"It might also be worth trying a temporary test catalog, just to see whether it's specific to that catalog. To do so, go to File menu > New Catalog and create a new catalog somewhere easy - Desktop perhaps - and just try importing a few photos into that test catalog and see if you can get it to freeze. I'm wondering if the catalog's been damaged slightly by that initial unexpected close, and if so, we'll see if we can get that sorted out for you."
I did exactly that (created a test catalog) and I don't get the error. I am not clear on what does that mean. Could you help me understand it? What do I need to do to use my old catalog? Is it damaged? How can I fix it? Did I loose all the work that I did in my previous pictures?
If I go back to my original catalog, I still get the error.
Thank you in advanced for your assistance.
Tony

Tony,
Here's something you might try:
Create a new, empty catalogue and try File->Import from catalog... and specify your broken one as input. With luck the damage will be left behind.
If that doesn't work, try deleting or renaming your preferences file. Look here for its location.
And if that doesn't work, try deleting or renaming your presets folder. See that same website for details.
Let us know how you make out.

Lightroom 3.2 Installation Problem on Windows 7 64-bit

Lightroom 3.2 Installation Problem on Windows 7 64-bit
I can't install Lightroom 3.2 (German) on my computer (Windows 7 Professional 64-bit).
While copying the extracted program files the following error message appears:
An error occurred during the installation of assembly component {6435B7C0-E0C8-3EA2-91AE-7640034EAFCE}. HRESULT: 0x80070002.
I found out that other users had the same problem, and couldn't find a solution.
Perhaps it is a Microsoft .NET Framework related problem. But after installing .NET Framework 4 nothing changed.
Thanks for ideas to solve the problem.

Thanks for your advice, Mr. McLion.
I downloaded the 3.4.1 version and started the installation as administrator. Unfortunately the same error message occured again.
Then I tried to install the 32-bit version (although I prefer a 64-bit program on a 64-bit operating system). A similar error message appeared at the same point of installation progress, but with another combination of numbers and letters in brackets.

LIGHTROOM 3.3 REINSTALLATION PROBLEM

Hi, LIGHTROOM 3.3 REINSTALLATION PROBLEM. I had an operating system problem with my pc. A friend took an image of my disc. I have the computer running again now but I dont have any of my Loghtroom edits. I was advised to get a .lrc (or something) file but that only had a copy of the very first backup that I did. I didn't backup using the Lightroom backup that pops up when closing te program. How can I retrieve all my edits, it amounts to many, many hundreds of hours work? I'd be very greatful of some help.

Thanks guys. I cant even find the disc image file so I am going to have to wait till me mate gets back from overseas to do any more.
I still have my image files but I am really worried about the edits. That is a heap of work. and I have sold heaps of images, I'm screwed if I get asked for a second copy, or anything for that matter.
My email address is [email protected] do you mind if I contact you directly? John is not due bak in OZ for a few weeks yet, then he's going to Japan for a couple of months.
Cheers, David

Flash 8.5 Beta fixed my problems

I'm running 10.4.6 on G4 Powerbook 1.25 and Safari started
randomly not playing any flash movies version 7 or 8. I uninstalled
the plugin using the unistaller from Macromedia then installed
Flash plugin 8.5 (beta) and no problems here. It fixed my flash
viewing problems. It also works in Firefox & Camino.

Where did you get the beta? Does it work on 64-bit
processors?

That is the point of a beta version.
Software in the beta phase will generally have many more bugs in it than completed software, as well as speed/performance issues. The focus of beta testing is reducing impacts to users, often incorporating usability testing. "

Lightroom 5, Mac. Problem with the Radial Tool. Marquee Lines disappear.

Lightroom 5 Mac. Problem with the Radial Tool. I use this tool a lot. I must have hit a hot key by accident because between photos the marquee lines have disappeared and i don't know how to get them back. Without the marquee lines there I cannot rotate or expand the radial tool.

I have attempted to uninstall, empty trash and a fresh download from Adobe. The problem is still there...

Lightroom 5.2 Slideshow "Export Video" over exposed

Hello, In using Lightroom 5.2 Slideshow (current version), I can export PDF and Jpeg versions of the Slideshow which look good. When I add music and Export Video slideshow the exposure goes up by +1.5 to +2. Help!
I have gone to "Preferences", "Presets", "Store presets with this catalog" (checked)
Thanks,
Mike84

The video on SMugMug looks very good on my Windows 7 system using both IE 9 and FireFox 24, so it appears there is nothing wrong with the LR video. Check your Grapics adapter's control panel. I'm running an Nvidia graphics card- Right click on a blank area of the Desktop and select Nvidia Control panel, or whatever graphics adapter panel you have.
Try setting the 'Video' section of your panel back to 'Restore Defaults,' or do it manually. In addition, there is a know issue with Nvidia drivers that causes black levels to look washed-out. If using an Nvida card folow the settings shown in the screenshot below and set the 'Dynamic Range' to 'Full (0-255)' and NOT 'Limited (16-235).' Make sure the Conrol panel Video section Gamma and Color settings are at their default settings.
If still having this issue download the latest driver from Nvidia's or AMD's website and install it. If still having the issue provide your OS version, graphics adapter model, and graphics driver version.

Lightroom 4.1 export problem

Lightroom 4.1 will not export a deleloped image. I have the metadata to new file set to automatic and I get no error mesage. All my new exported files are the same as the original. I need a detailed discription of what boxes need to be checked or unchecked and where to find them. Something as simple as saving changes so that I might use them in another app should not be so difficult- version 2.7 worked fine so what's up with 4.1?

Still no luck... I just purchased a licence for my demo version- I was hoping not to have to do a 1.1Gb download and/or redo my my catalog- is this required?

Are you saying that LR4 is exporting over the top of your exiting images, or that it is not exporting anything?   To test whether you can export anything, try exporting to a subfolder under your originals, instead of new names in the original images folder, which I think is what you’re saying you’re attempting: On the Export panel, all the way at the top, make sure to set Export To: to Hard Drive. Set the Export Location – Export To: value to Same folder as original photo. Put a checkmark next to Export Location – Put in Subfolder Enter in “output” into the Export Location - Put in Subfolder: textbox. Uncheck the Add to this Catalog unless you really want to include the output of this experimental export in the catalog. Set Export Location - Existing Files to Ask what to do, so LR will indicate if it’s trying to overwrite the same files, again, which it should if the output subfolder is empty. Uncheck the File Naming – Rename To: so the files aren’t renamed. At the bottom change Post-Processing – After Export to Show in Explorer Click the Export button and see what happens. It should do the export then open up Windows Explorer on the output folder you specified.    Before doing any of this, it might be wise to make a screenshot of your current Export settings, the Export To and File Naming sections at least, which you can both post here and use to reset things back from what I’ve specified, above.
