Lightroom CC 5 doesn't launch after 2014 update.

Lightroom CC 5 doesn't launch after 2014 update. Mac OSX 10.8.5. Tried the suggestion to log out of Adobe Cloud and log back in. Also rebooted computer. No luck. Photoshop CC 2014 seems to have installed perfectly. Can't install previous version either, can't even find it via Adobe Cloud. Tried re-downloading from Adobe web site but it sits there saying "downloading now" -- but nothing is downloading!

Charr please see Not able to launch Lightroom after updating it to 5.5 from Creative Cloud for possible solutions to allow Lightroom to open.

  • Lightroom 5.5 will not launch after CC update

    My Lightroom 5.5 was working just fine.  Yesterday after doing an update on Creative Cloud, and rebooting the computer, LR will not launch.  When I click on the icon, it opens the splash page for a split second, then crashes.  Any suggestions of what may be happening and what to do?

    I had this issue with Photoshop on Windows from the very beginning of my subscription -- i.e. since end of last year. Now, after latest update Adobe managed to introduce same problem with LR 5.5. Here is how I "solved" it on Windows:
    I have two scripts that I am using to start PS and LR
    rd "%programdata%\adobe\slstore" /q /s
    rd "%CommonProgramFiles(x86)%\adobe\slcache\slconfigs" /q /s
    echo *** Start the sucker ***
    pushd %programfiles%
    "Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.5\lightroom.exe"
    popd
    I don't have this problem on Mac and don't know where this cache lives there, but it should be somewhere. Idea is that you remove the cache and configuration, then start the app, it registers itself and starts. Unfortunately, I have to do it every time. Tech support have no clue about any solution for that, you have to ask them to transfer you to product support.
    Good luck,

    I believe TD was referring to rstoring your iPhoto Library, not the system. But I doubt that you'll be able to restore your library intact from Carbonite.  You should certainly try, however.

  • Safari doesn't open after i updated it to 1.6.8

    Safari doesn't open after i updated it to 1.6.8

    Reinstall Safari 5.1.2
    Then restart your Mac.
    If that doesn't help, you may have a third party add on that was compatible with the prior version of Snow Leopard, but not 10.6.8.
    Troubleshooting help here >  Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
    And try Safari in another user account. If you can't open Safari there as well, that's an indication the startup disk may need repairing.
    Log back in to your admin account, launch Disk Utility. That's located in /Applications/Utilities
    Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
    Click: Verify Disk  (not Verify Disk Permissions)

  • Lightroom 5.5 CC doesn't launch after Update

    Hello,
    I used Creative Cloud to download all the new 2014 updates of which LR 5 was an update.  All the downloads and installs reported being successful.  I opened PS CC 2014 and it launch and loaded just fine.  However, LR 5 launches the flash screen for about 2 secs, but doesn't launch.  I've try to go to Creative Cloud to download and reinstall, but it has LR 5 as installed and won't let me re-download and install.  I also tried going to the new creative cloud adobe site and tried downloading it there, but is comes up with a message that the link requires a launch program ... have no idea what the program is.  Totally baffled with this new Cloud set up!  Your help is greatly appreciated.
    Dennis

    I have the same issue. I don't even get a 2-second flash. My question might be slightly different though. I have the Creative Cloud with Photoshop CC and I owned the 5.4 version of Lightroom. I was surprised to see the Lightroom update available in Creative Cloud. While the Photoshop kept my old CC it removed my old Lightroom and installed the new version. I believe there is a problem with the Lightroom.exe file. So I removed the program, rebooted and re-installed. Same thing.
    Could this be because my Creative Cloud subscription has not been updated to include Lightroom?
    And yes it is a critical flaw.

  • Lightroom 5.5 doesn't open after update using CC - how to proceed?

    After update, that appeared to proceed normally, and did not report any errors in CC, I'm unable to open Lightroom (both using the desktop icon, and double clicking on the .exe file). Absolutely nothing appears to happen when I click. Same situation after reboot (Win 7).
    Please advice!

    BR Karsten please see the response I gave SteveMGoff at Lightroom 5.5 won't open after update.

  • Mail won't launch after latest update

    I have tried the shift key and moving the Mail cache folder to the desktop with no luck.
    Mail will simply not launch.
    I suppose I will have to do an archive/install unless anybody here has any other ideas.

    Please, clarify. Is it that Mail doesn’t launch at all, or that it freezes upon start up? These are completely different problems, but your post gives the impression that you have the former and have tried things meant for the later...
    Also, checking what happens on another user account isn’t supposed to “help”, but rather is meant to determine whether the problem is system-wide or confined to a particular user account, which isn’t clear from your post either...
    Problems arising right after installing a system update are usually the result of the problem already being there, or some filesystem corruption that should have been fixed first, or not having installed the update properly (e.g. applications running while installing it), or having ignored Apple’s “Important: Please read before installing” warnings, etc.
    Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
    The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
    After having fixed all the filesystem issues, if any, reinstall any updates that may not have been installed properly. It may also be necessary to reinstall the Combo Update for the type of computer and the version of Mac OS X you’re using, unless this is the version of Mac OS X that came with the computer:
    About the Mac OS X 10.4.11 Update
    Mac OS X 10.4.11 Combo Update for PowerPC
    Mac OS X 10.4.11 Combo Update for Intel
    After installing the Combo Update, the computer may restart twice and the first restart may take several minutes. This is normal.
    Take a look at the following articles for guidelines on how to properly install system updates:
    Troubleshooting installation and software updates
    Installing software updates
    Basically, you should verify/repair the startup disk and back up before installing the update, no applications should be running while installing it, and you may experience unexpected results if you have third-party system software modifications (not normal applications) installed.

  • Photoshop fails to launch after software update

    Photoshop fails to launch after the most recent software update. I am running 10.5.5 on a black macbook. It fails to launch every time. I have activated it with the key code, but never registered. What do I need to do to fix this?

    Hi jmoser;
    Adobe position on PS CS2 is that it is not compatible with Leopard. They say they have no plans to fix it either. According to them the only versions that are compatible with Leopard are CS3 and CS4.
    I some people say they don't have any problems using PS CS2 with Leopard but it doesn't appear this is true for everyone.

  • HTML animation effects doesn't work after last update

    After last update my html animation that have different effects with different time: fade, translate, rotation, scale, ecc... plays but some effects doesn't play.
    Various animated png in html project appears immediatly without shows transitions or deformations.
    I have made html animation with Motion Composer that have time curve for each effect.. and all work fine with previous dps desktop tools...
    I don't use Hedge because folios with hedge animation is mooooooooore large than folios with motion composer animation.
    A single complex animation (10 .png(1024x768) with multipe effects fo each) made with composer produce a 1MB folio...
    The same animation made with Hedge produce more the 100MB folio.
    why new version of dps don't show my html anim correctly ? I hope adobe correct this proble. 

    We just released an update to the DPS tools that addresses the issues around HTML/iFrame and buttons in release 25. You can download the updated components by following the links at http://www.adobe.com/go/learn_dps_install_en.

  • N73: restore doesn't work after firmware update

    Hello!
    I just made a firmware update to my N73 with NSU, and the procedure completed with no errors.
    Just before the update I made a backup with the application in the phone menu; the app wrote a backup.arc file in the MMC.
    After the update I tried to restore the backup via the same app.
    Here's the problem: the app seems to work (but the "restore" lasts just 1-2 seconds), the phone reboots, but nothing is restored.
    Googleing aroung I found a solution: buy the Noki 1.7 software, extract SMS, contacts and files from the backup.arc, and put everything back on the phone...
    Is there another solution that doesn't involve buying this 3rd party software?
    TIA

    The phone is working well...
    I have been searching in internet, and there'a a lot of people with the same problem. Everybody tells to use PC Suite to backup... if I only knew before.

  • Ipod doesn't work after firmware update

    I have an old ipod and I tried to update the firmware. After the update It did'n work. ON the Ipod screen it appear like a plug indicating to charge it, but I charged it several times and the result is the same.
    Now i'm trying to recover it again but my computer doesn't recognize it.
    ¿Is there anything I can do?
    Thanks in advance.

    The best place to look for help first is Genuine Apple help directly from Apple.
    Read the iPod Touch Users Guide.
    http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipodtouch
    Also start with the basics from Apple.
    1. *Restart iPod touch:* Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPod touch. To turn iPod touch back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    If you can’t turn off iPod touch or if the problem continues, you may need to reset iPod touch. A reset should be done only if turning iPod touch off and on doesn’t resolve the problem.
    2. *Reset iPod touch:* Press and hold both the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    For more troubleshooting suggestions, see Appendix B, “Support and Other Information,” on page 214.

  • Kdcmond could not launch, after security update Nov 09,OS 10.5,Powerbook g4

    Powerbook G4 will not boot past the grey screen with spinning wheel after latest security update from Apple.
    In safe mode: kdcmond could not launch is reported.
    I DO NOT HAVE EASY ACCESS TO INSTALLATION DISKS.
    Please post suggestions that are viable using rm or vi in safe mode.
    It will take the IT department weeks to get around to fixing this so I am hoping for usable responses in the short term.
    Powerbook G4 1GB os 10.5.7 to 8 Grey Screen/crash with exceptions after security update.
    Took corrective actions using Disk Utility then Applejack with no success. Deleted Library/Prefernces/SystemConfiguration files: NetworkInterfaces.plist, com.apple.airport.preferences.plist, and preferences.plist to get them to regenerate. The exception is gone but now, kdcmond could not launch is reported due to no localhost name found.

    No suggestions from anyone so I am giving up and returning the PC to IT. I will leave the thread open in case anyone comes up with any ideas for future reference.
