Lightroom launching error

I have been having this problem for a while. I even uninstalled and re-installed and am still getting this error message "Lightroom encountered and error when reading from it's preview cache and needs to quit. Lightroom will attempt to fix this problem the next time it launches." HELP!

In the folder that your Catalogue (lrcat) resides there is a previews folder (lrdata). Delete this folder and restart Lightroom. Your previews will be rebuilt.

Windows 8 Upgrade - 64-bit version of Lightroom -application error 0xc000007b

I've just upgraded my Desktop PC from the 64-bit Windows 7 operating system to 64 bit Windows 8 Pro. The migration has gone very smoothly, with justone exception - Adobe Lightroom 64-bit version 4.2 won't start up. As soon as I try to open the application it comes up with an error code of 0xc000007b.
Searching the web I've seen a number of suggestions which I've tried to to avail...
- uninstal, restart and then reinstall Lightroom. Same 0xc000007b error
- uninstal, restart, run ccleaner to clear registry issues, restart, download the latest version of Lightroom from Adobe website (4.2.1) and then reinstall Lightroom. Same 0xc000007b error
As a workaround I found that uninstalling Lightroom 64-bit and reinstalling the 32-bit version (by selecting the setup32.exe program, rather than using the install Lightroom 4.exe program) gives me a working copy of Lightroom again. This does however mean I'm using the the 32-bit version of Lightroom, rather than 64-bit version that I had working before the upgrade to Windows 8.
Why am I getting the 0xc00000fb problems with the 64-bit 4.2.1 version of Lightroom and how can I resolve the issue so I can go back to the 64-bit version that I had working in Windows 7 immediately before upgrading to Windows 8?
Thanks for suggestions!

Launch Error - This file cannot be launched

Hi all,
I renamed a class file in a flash build and now every time I try to debug my project (cmd+F11) I get an error window saying Launch Error - This file cannot be launched.
I have tried wiping the project and moving the files in to a new one and also restarting FB4 but with no luck. I have also tried setting up a brand new blank project and this will not launch either.
The problem seems to only be with Flash projects as a new Flex project runs ok.
I am running Flash Builder 4 , Flash CS5 on a Mac 10.6.4 and debugging in Google Chrome 7.0.517.41
Any suggestions?
Cheers

There is no adl listed in my list of active processes in Activity Monitor. I have tried rebooting my machine, restarting all my software and projects and cleaning my projects. No luck yet.
If I just switch to flash and run the fla directly it works fine so it must be Flex specific.
Cheers for the suggestionsso far . Keep em coming if you have them

TS1963 DMS Launch error after migration from snow leopard iMac to new Macbook Pro?

I just purchased a Macbook Pro. I used Migration assistant to transfer my files from my '06 iMac, which was running snow leopard to the Macbook and at start up now get a DMS Launch error every time... any suggestions??
The error message says check with the developer to make sure DMS Launch works on this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application.
I have installed all updates as it suggests, to no avail. I keep getting the error message and report pop up box each time at start up and the only way to be rid of it, is to click ok to send the report - there is no option to stop the report from coming up.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do to stop the error message appearing and resolve the issue?
Thanks
Chelle

Click Command+shift+G

What is Browser Launch Error: 193? Cannot access Java information

After about the last 2 updates to Firefox, when I am updating Java, and wish to click on "Additional Information" there is a small box which pops up and states: Browser Launch Error: 193. Therefore I
am unable to access the additional information.

when an update is necessary an icon appears in the bottom bar (task bar), and I click on the icon to begin viewing it. When it has downloaded the install box appears with "terms of service". When I attempt to click on this is when the "browser launch error: 193" appears, and I cannot read the "terms of service" (or similar statement). The small box indicating the "browser launch error" pops up in the middle of the larger screen for downloading. This has only occurred since the last 2 (or 3) Firefox updates, so wondering if the updates are related to this(?). Never had this problem previously with the Java updates. I am bewildered by this, and the inability to read the "terms of service" (or similar statement). Because it states that you accept the terms of service, however without reading it, a user does not know what it says. Thank you both for your recommendations.

PSD 13.0.1 launch errors

I have used PSD since version 1 and lots have changed, except that there is always a new version around the bend.
I just installed PSD 13 and updated it to 13.0.1. on my MacPro 3,1 with 16GB and 4TB. Along the way I received launch errors :
MMX cannot be loaded
Color settings cannot be synched
Multiple Processor can't work with this version of Photoshop
I also received errors when I tried to creat a 3D layer from a shape or text layer or open a readable .obj file as a 3D layer.
I updated the nVidia GeForce 8800 GT with the new driver 304.00.05f02 posted 10/2/2012.
The first few times restarting with the new drivers, there was no changes. Finally I was able to use the 3D portion of PSD 13.
Even though I was able to use the 3D, I still got the error warning on launch of PSD 'that the multiple processors weren't compatible with this version of Photoshop.'
The Adobe Help site<http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/photoshop-cs6-gpu-faq.html> says that my GPU will work with PSD 13.
I am also confused by the technospeak of open_gl and open_cl. Some places refor to the GeForce 8800GT as having both and some dont refer to those terms. I wish things were consistant. If it was found to work with PSD 13 as stated in the above reference are GL & CL active in the card I have?
So why are there so many issues. I never have had any and now I am wondering whether to go back to PSD 12 to avoid the hassles.
Please give some answers if you know so I can be confident using PSD again.

You copied plugins from a previous version of Photoshop by mistake.
Go delete all the plugins that you copied from a previous version.
And remember that the plugins folder should only have third party plugins in it.

"This game cannot be launched error" iPod Classic 160 Gb

I have an iPod Classic, 160 Gb. I purchased Sudoku from the iTunes store.
The game downloaded to my computer; and it shows in the iPod Games tab.
It appears to sync to the iPod, but in the iPod's games menu there is no icon for the game (just the black and white dice). When I try to play the game, I get the "This game cannot be launched error" with the prompt to reinstall the game.
Are there any fixes for this? I've tried all the troubleshooting in the support docs, and nothing seems to work.

Thanks for your suggestions; however none of them worked.
I contacted technical support, and the only suggestion they had for me was to request a refund - because for some reason, unknown to them, the game doesn't work on my iPod.
I'm not generally a ranter - I try to be polite to people, in person, on the phone, online - wherever, but I have to say that in my experience, Apple seems to have the worst support of any company with which I have ever dealt.
After being told no less than eight times, by five different representatives from iTunes support, I was referred to technical support, who told me in essence, "tough cookies" (although the representative certainly didn't say that, he was quite polite).
I had to double check that I was talking to "technical" support.
I've been a faithful iPod user for many years; but this experience has certainly soured me. I will have to think long and hard before buying another Apple product if the support I have experienced is indicative of a typical support instance.
Thanks again for your suggestions.

Lightroom: "An error occurred when attempting to change modules."

I'm a first time Lightroom(via the Cloud) user (used Capture One before this) and just downloaded it today. The first thing I saw was this error message
"An error occurred when attempting to change modules."
I've updated it to 4.3 and I've tried all the other recommendations I found here:
http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/error-changing-modules-lightroom.html
I don't know what Nik products are but I don't believe I have any.
I'm on a Mac running 10.6.8
Removed this preference file I found here:
http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/preference-file-locations-lightroom-4.html
So frustrating! Please, can anyone help me???

I can only quote from the webpage that you already visited RE: Permission.
You need to have full permission for reading and writing for the folders and drives that Lr is using - particularly the folder that contains the catalog (i.e. the database Lr is working with).
If you have full permission try re-installing Lr. Un-install it via your OS. And re-install it.
Also, occasionally downloaded programs can become damaged during download - for instance when the download has been interrupted.
Before you re-install, I'd recommend that you download Lr again and use this second download for re-installation.
From the webpage (particularly read the part about Macs):
Solution 5: Set correct permissions on Lightroom folder inside Application Support
The Lightroom folder inside Application Support could have the wrong permissions preventing Lightroom from writing to it which can cause this error.
Navigate to the following folder: /Users/[user name]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom
Highlight the Lightroom folder and chose File > Get Information
Under Sharing & Permission, verify that your have Read & Write Privileges. If not, click the padlock icon at the lower right, enter your password when prompted, then click the Read only entry and select Read & Write.
Important: (Mac OS) Apple made the user library folder hidden by default with the release of Mac OS X 10.7. If you need access to files in the hidden library folder to perform Adobe-related troubleshooting, see How to access hidden user library files.
Solution 6: Try a different user account.
Copy the Lightroom folder into a new user account or other existing account on your computer. Then, restart Lightroom. The Lightroom folder is in the following locations:
Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\Application Data\Adobe\
Windows 7, Vista: [user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\
Mac OS: [user name]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/

I'm getting message Lightroom encountered error when reading from its preview cache needs to quit. Lightroom 5 on Windows 7

I'm getting message Lightroom encountered error when reading from its preview cache needs to quit. Lightroom 5 on Windows 7

To delete the preview cache, do this:
1. Quit Lightroom.
2. In your Operating System, locate your Lightroom catalog. Typically catalogs are in /Pictures/Lightroom on Mac and My Pictures\Lightroom on Windows.
3. Find the folder whose name ends with "Previews.lrdata" and delete it. (note, you may also have a folder whose name ends with "Smart Previews.lrdata." You shouldn't need to delete that one.)

Ray tracer failed to launch error is costing me time and money

Add me to the legion of people angry about this bug. Doing a search for it here and everywhere else basically leads me to the conclusion that Adobe knows about this problem and does nothing about it to fix it. I'm working on a project for a client with a deadline that's coming in a few days, and I have to constantly close AE and open it again, sometimes even reboot, to get it to work for a few minutes, and then it crashes again. So something that I could have been close to finish by now, I'm still not half way through because of this horrible bug that Adobe doesn't fix. Of course some people can't complain because they're running it on an unsupported card, but I'm running it on a GTX570 with 1.2 GB of RAM, so there's no reason why it shouldn't work. The machine also has an i7 3930k CPU with 32 GB of very fast RAM, and it's a fresh installation of Windows 8.1 Pro from less than a week ago, with all the latest drivers.
The project is very simple, a solid layer acting as a floor with a grid generator, a layer of text, and about 8 pictures sitting a few pixels above the floor. Nothing overly complicated, and it still crashes all the time. And this is not even a 1080p project, it's 720p.
And to add insult to injury, After Effects does not respect a custom layout when there was a comp viewer in the secondary monitor, so each time I restart AE I have to open a new comp viewer, drag it to the second monitor and resize it. Did nobody at Adobe think that people would be using two comp windows open at the same time, one in each monitor?
Adobe should focus less on adding new flashy features and instead making their software reliable, and not force people to buy CC. They should fix CS6.

I am having the same issue, though today I tried something that helped a lot. I am working on a mac pro with a flashed Quadro FX 580 and a slower Quadro 4000 card, and two displays. I've always plugged one display into each of the cards and lately frequently gotten the "Ray Tracer failed to launch" error. Today I plugged both displays into the less-powerful graphics card, leaving the 580 untaxed by running a monitor and so presumably entirely free for Ray Tracing. And so far today I haven't gotten the error we both know too well. You mention being on a PC and don't mention having two cards, so this may not help you. But if you still have the card you swapped out for your 570 and can pop it in your rig it might be worth a try.

Launcher Error: Setuid error: Resource temporarily unavailable

Hi All,
I'm running a job in tidal for couple of weeks now but suddenly I encountered an error "Launcher Error: Setuid error: Resource temporarily unavailable"
What does this mean? I'm using RHEL server release 6.3 Beta.
Thanks,
Melody

You need to check your ulimits (ulimit -a) for the user launching the job and also the tidal agent user (tidal). The 'nofile' and 'nproc' for user cannot be higher than the tidal agent user (tidal). To fix it, you can alter the ulimit file (/etc/security/limits.conf) for 'tidal' (if that is the user your agent is running as) so that it is equal to or greater than the job user.

Why doesn't Lightroom Launch?

Why doesn't Lightroom launch after the download completes? It loaded fine, but the "Launch App" is "grayed out."

Which operating system are you using? Have you tried launching it using the normal means for your operating system as opposed to the Adobe Application Manager?
