Lightroom crashed while dragging a photo in Book module

I was creating a book in Lightroom 5. While dragging a photo within the book Lightroom quit. An error window popped up and I sent the message per instruction. The message that came back stated Lightroom could not repair the problem. The screen is now blank and showing "Loading" for the past 9 hours.

Dorin, you are a Lightroom 4 God! Because I wasn't thinking of the text as a "caption" but rather as text, I never saw that option. I just tried it and it is fine. I am not sure if I can play with the dimensions of the box as much as I like, but I could deal with that by how I arrange the type. Yeah you!
While I'm typing to you, I have another question: one of the neat things about the book module is that you can switch into Develop and make a change in the photo and it automatically updates the photo in the book module. HOWEVER -- what happens if at some time in the future I am working with a photo which is in a book -- and I like the way it is for that book -- and I want to change the photo for another use. Will that change in the photo change the photo in the book? If so, is there any way to keep this from happening? I could see using a photo in a book in black & white, but wanting to use in for a graphic in color. I'd hate to come back to my book and see that all my work there had been screwed up.
Thanks,
P

Problem dragging some photos into book.. they don't show at all.

I have a problem dragging some photos into a book. I've never had this issue before. I can tell that "something" has moved because it often has a ! for resolution issues and the photo has the white check that signifies it has been used....but the photo doesn't show at all.
The photos were made into sepia prints.
Help! Any suggestions about what could be wrong?
Thanks for any advice.

The ! indicates that iPhoto has broken/lost the file path to the original file. Make a backup copy of the library and run the three fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select all options.
Fix #2
Rebuild the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 -Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 -Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File->Rebuild Library menu option
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: It may take some time to create the new library if you have a lot of photos.
Fix #3
Start over with a new library and import the Originals folder from your original library as follows:
Creating a new library while preserving the Events from the original library.
1. Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
2. Open the library package like this.
3. Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
4. Drag the Originals folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library if you have the Finder checkbox unchecked in the Events preference pane.

Lightroom crashes when entering a photo caption [was: Blurb crash]

Every time I try and enter a photo caption, Lightroom crashes. Any ideas as to why and how to remedy the problem? Thanks, Brad

Which version of Lightroom? Which operating system?

Mac crashes while importing / viewing photos in Lightroom

Does any one have any clue as to what might be causing my Mac to crash/stall when I am:
Using Lightoom to import files / viewing the files in library while they download. (It doesn't crash if I just leave it to download and don't view the files).
I'm downloading from high speed Lexar CF cards / using their pro CF card reader (in express port)
I'm working on a Mac Book Pro, running Lion!
Never had this problem when I used same cards / readers under Windows 7 64 bit in Lightroom!

Send the crash log to Adobe. The crash log can be had from the console app, or by looking in your CrashReporter folder in your Library.

Error/Crash while dragging movieclip image sequence to stage

While trying to drag a movie clip to the stage containing a jpg sequence of 360 images at 1024x768 I get an error (or sometimes it just crashes) saying "Could not open one or more scenes probably because of low memory." I am using a dual quad core mac pro with 48gb of ram, with no other programs open, so this seems unlikely. This is in Flash CS5 (11.0.2.489) on Mac OS 10.7.4. No other symbols or files are in the library and nothing else is on the stage. I've tried it with multiple different image sequences (same resolution, same count), and I always have the same problem. Any help would be appreciated.

Maybe adding rhe movieclip with code
in the libary (F11) add a name in AS Linkage (some like Sequence)
then type the code (F9)
var sequence:Sequence=new Sequence();
addChild(sequence);

Illustrator 2014 CC crashes (while dragging with selection tool)

What could be wrong?
Adobe Illustrator CC 2014.1.1
Mac OSX 10.10.1
Font Explorer X Pro 3.5.4 (plugin not installed for Illustrator CC)
I don't have any 3rd party plugins as far as I can tell
I've tried restarting the app, restarting the computer, clearing preferences, closing the laptop lid, closing other apps, removing plugins, etc. Restarting the computer actually worked for a few minutes, but then it started crashing again.
To reproduce:
1. Create a new file or open existing.
2. Create a square.
3. Drag with the selection tool.
4. App crashes.
I've seen many other threads with the same problem, but none of them were solved.
Here is my crash log: https://cldup.com/ng5G7dhTF0.txt

Dave,
The issue may very well be caused by the Chrome Pushbullet extension, see this post #3 by Matt with the solution:

Lighroom crashed while loading new pictures.

Lightroom crashed while loading new pictures. Cannot open it anymore: cannot read cache. Downloaded a new version: my license number is not valid???? What's next?
Thanks. Dany

Sorry for the lack of info. I wasn't sure how this forum thing worked...
Here are the details:
LR 5,7 crashed while loading pictures. I was away for a moment, when I went
back to the computer, I had to reenter my session and try to reopen LR.
OS is Windows 7 Pro
Message: LR encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and
needs to quit.
When I restart it, it still shows the same message and doesn't open. I
downloaded a new version (5.7.1) and if I enter my serial number it doesn't
recognize it. If I click on Trial, it shows the same error message...
Thanks,
Dany

LR4.2 & 4.3 crash when entering book module

Hi,
Both the LR4.2 & 4.3 Crash when I enter to the book module...
Anyone with the same problem ?
Thank you !
Julien

Ok, thanks again.
I gave a big hug to my iMac when I saw my Library module raising from the graves (sorry for my terrible french-english...)
But when I go to the book module, it's just goes wrong... -> Exit ...
I don't know if there's a link but I've replaced my superdrive with a SSD drive and so there have been some movement in my HDDs ...
All the applications are on the SSD but the preferences files are on the old HDD. (Someone did the change for me, I'm just a Mac's newbie...)
Do you think it can be the sources of my problems ?
What should I do with all that mess ... ?
Thanks,
Julien

Lightroom 5: Lost photo Book after Lightroom crash

LIghtroom shot down after crash and now only shows empty foto book. Pictures included in the book however are still shown as used in the picture bar. Is there a way to restore the original book without backup?
I'm working on a PC and restarting Lighroom and PC both failed.
thanks!

Without Backup- No.!
If you do have a Catalog Backup, it may be there.
Good advice is- always "Create a Saved Book" (that will be in the Collections Panel) when you have a basic design started. A "Saved Book" always updates as you alter pages and images in the Book module.
And always backup the catalog!

Book Module Lightroom 4 -- can I use a color picker to pick a color from a photo to use as the backg

I am trying to match a background color for a page in a Blurb book using the Lightroom 4 Book Module. Is there any way I can use the color picker to pick a color from the photo to use as the color for the background and as the type color? I see the color box for these situations, but the color picker only seems to work with the color array that pops up and doesn't go to the photo. Any suggestions? Am I overlooking something very obvious?

It works for me.
The usual Lightroom way: click the eyedropper onto the color palette first, then hold and drag to your photo to sample color.

I try to drag a photo folder into lightroom 4 on my MAC, lightroom fails to open and a 'Corrupt Catalog Detected' screen pops up. Clicking on 'repair catalog' does not work either. Any suggestions?

I'll have to get a better instructor on deleting the preferences since when I've doen it in the past nothing is there when I open LR the catalog is gone. I assumed that was what was supposed to happen so I start importing all over again. But that is a different issue...
The problem has been happening since at least the beta of 3 came out and I saw other posts back then saying they had similar issues but I assume it was a beta thing... But since the full version came out and through each incremental change I haven't seen an improvement. If anything it has gotten a little worse with time.
I have to try to be careful to not be in a hurry and start clicking around in the catalog as it seems fragile until it has cataloged all the photos in the library. When starting you will see the numbers populate the folders very slowly and I try not to click on a folder that hasn't had the number of photos pop up yet. Also draging the slider down to see more of the cataloge can have the same affect and crash the system.
I wish I had more to go on.. I believe it may be a resources issue but as I went from 3-4 Gig I thought it would get better. I don't have big programs running but did have outlook and word running in the background along with firefox and chrome.
And yes it only happens on this HP desktop (it's 2+ yrs old) and may be showing it's age a bit. My laptop which has less resources doesn't have the issue.. I have them sharing the catalog. (not at the same time) just when I'm working in other places in the house.

2012 Retina Mac Book Pro (Mountain Lion) crashes while using Finder

I used the Migration Assistant to move over my settings and file from a 2009 Mac Book Pro to a brand new Retina version. Everything was working well until, on the first day, I needed to use the finder to search for photo files on the hard drive. I am updated to the moset current OS X 10.8.2. My old computer was not giving me this problem. I have used to disc utility to check and repair permission. It doesn't matter if I have ten applications open and running or none. It only crashes while searching in the Finder while using the space bar to preview. Thanks for any help on this!

You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro forum. This is the forum for the 13” white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

Mac crashed while I was editing in Lightroom 3.

My Mac crashed while working photos in Lightroom 3. Just installed 3 days ago. Running Lion. Any idea what the issue could be? I turned it off lastnight. Afraid to turn it back on at this point.

Hi, Bobby -
I am not sure of the model but I know it is before the Silver Bullets.
Let's see if we can narrow it down - the type, and usually the specific model, can be important. These Apple KBase articles can help you identify the model.
Is it a laptop/portable machine?
iBook models - http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=88039
PowerBook G4 - http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=88248
PowerBook G3 - http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=24604
Is it an iMac (monitor is integral with machine)?
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301724
Is it a desktop model (separate monitor)?

Messages app crashes while trying to share photo

Messages app freezes and crashes after trying to share a photo by tapping the camera button... I'd like to add that I've quite literally tried everything to fix this is issue and have searched this entire forum for answers, even called apple 2-3 times and they ran out of ideas as well... I've reset all settings and content, I've wiped my iPhone and started fresh and manually started adding content back onto my device and the photo share option worked!! Unfortunately it only worked for a day then went right back to freezing and crashing without showing any photos to share. I can still share photos thru the photos app but that is such a nuisance to use regularly... Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated!! And im not holding my breath that 8.1 will fix anything because 8.0.2 didn't fix squat... Actually 8.0.1 ruined landscape mode in safari for me and I'm not able to select anything on any website while in landscape

Problem is now known by Apple. See http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303604

My photoshop CS4 keeps crashing while I am in the middle of editing a photo. I am running Mac OS X 10.9.4. I have tried to contact support and I was directed here.

You were redirected to this user forum because CS4 is no longer supported by Adobe at all.
We'll need a lot more info before we can help.
You'll have to manually determine whether Photoshop CS4 is updated to version 11.0.2 (the Adobe auto updater is most unreliable in CS4), and give us plenty of other information.
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand, such as your platform (Mac or Win), exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop and of Bridge, machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, video card specs, what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far, what error message(s) you receive, if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc., someone may be able to help you.
