Lightroom locking up when I attempt to add a new folder or synchronize (update content in) an existing folder

I'm following the instructions (for Windows OS) here:
http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/help/create-folders.html#add_new_or_existing_folders
No matter what I do, Lightroom locks up (circle/acitivity icon keeps spinning and application becomes unresponsive, focing me to close it via Task Manager). Thinking that perhaps it wsa just taking LR awhile to process the folder contents, I let it run overnight. Same issue. I tried with a single folder, in case folder size was an issue. Same issue.
I've uninstalled/reinstalled it, to no effect.
Help would be appreciated, thanks.

Did you make sure that you opened the Bookmarks Menu folder with the '+' at the left to see all folders in it?
See: [[Bookmarks]]
This can also be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

When I attempt to add a new key frame into the timeline it adds several frames to my animation

I am trying to edit an FLV file with flash professiona. Right now every frame is on long frame sequence, meaning that right now there is only one key fram in the entire 40 second animation. I am trying to add put key frames at various points in my animation but when I attempt to add a new key frame into the timeline it copies ever frame up to the selected and adds it to the front of my timeline. Any Idea how to fix this? I want to break my video up so I can add some shape tweens in between some of the frames

PSE 11 crashes when I attempt to add a new catalog

PSE 11 crashes when I attempt to add a new catalog to those that already exist. No programs are running that might conflict with Organizer, and I can run other functions such as downloading photos from my camera. As soon as I attempt to add a new sub-catalog to an existing major catalog, the program crashes. I'm using Windows 7, and have tried various compatibilities, but none solves the problem. Any ideas?

How do you attempt to 'add a new catalog' or a new 'sub-catalog' ?
There are no such things as 'sub-catalogs' or catalogs included in catalog.
Catalogs are totally independent storing systems, they ignore what is managed in other catalogs.That's why it is recommended to have only one catalog, unless you have a good reason to create several ones because they are totally independent by nature (home vs professional for instance).
You can create several levels of albums, of tags categories, but not with catalogs.

Palm TX locks up when I try to add a new contact...

I'm not sure if this is the right area for this, but...
I can view the two contacts that Palm put in there, but ever time I try to add a new contact, a screen comes up with a last name, first name and picture option... but I cannot select anything, I cannot type anything, and the hard buttons do nothing. All I can do is to hit the reset button on the back. Help?
Post relates to: Palm TX

Is this a new TX? Did you upgrade from another Palm device, and if so, did you follow Palm's guide exactly as instructed?
As with most problems that occur on a Palm PDA, it is either software or hardware related and we have to determine which one.
Best method is to first make a complete backup of your unit to your SD card using the free "NVBackup" (available from http://www.freewarepalm.com) After the backup is complete, Hard Reset the unit, then test to see if full functionality returns.
To perform a Hard Reset:
While pressing and holding the Power button down, tap and release the Reset button in back and continue to hold the Power button down. When the grey Palm logo appears, you can release the Power button.
You should now see the warning page in about 5 languages. Press the UP direction on the 5-way pad to complete the task. Your Palm will reset itself several times as it re-installs the original programs and erases all your previous data.
DO NOT HOTSYNC YET! Test the unit before reinstalling any software. If the unit works correctly, your problem is being caused by a "drug interaction" of software - maybe one rogue program, or a combination of several. You'll have to reinstall the third-party programs one or a few at a time to find the problem one. To avoid re-installing a software issue, rename your /Backup directory in your Palm folder (on a PC it's found here: C/Program Files/Palm(One)/"your HotSync ID name truncated"/Backup) to something like "/BackupOLD". Now perform the HotSync, choose your HotSync name you've been using, and all your PIM data will return, but not the third-party programs. Test for functionality again. If all is good, start installing the old programs from your /BackupOLD directory one (or a few if brave) at a time.
If the unit does not work after a Hard Reset is performed correctly, then it may be Hardware-related. (If it's a connection problem via either BlueTooth or Wifi, be sure nothing has changed on the unit you're trying to connect to!)
Hope this has helped,

Can't open iTunes. When I attempt, the following message appears: You are attempting to add a new iTunes U collection but iTunes U is disabled. Would you like to enable iTunes U?

I Can't open iTunes. When I attempt, the following message appears: You are attempting to add a new iTunes U collection but iTunes U is disabled. Would you like to enable iTunes U? If I click either yes or no, the same box just reopens. As far as I know, I have not done anything with iTunes U. The software is up to date and I have also reinstalled itunes. Any ideas?

Since this problem, I was able to reinstall again and reboot, and then 'stop' while the library was being opened (that was another window that I could not close, that would come up before the error message, this time I chose to stop it). Now only music I have purchased appears, none of my other >1,000 albums I manually added via my CD collection. About 10% are in different music folders (I don't know why they aren't in the same one), but the other 90% are missing. Any ideas??

Lightroom locks up when using auto import / watch folder

Hello All
Has anyone ran into a problem with Lightroom locking up when you are using the auto import / watch folder feature. Everytime i try to even drop one file in the watched folder, I get a lightroom is not responding message. This really suck...........Everything else seems to be working so far.
Thanks
Bill

I had the same problem. When i would auto import, it would stuck after one photo was imported. I have a separate partition on my harddisk for photo's (F:\) when i made an extra subdirectory (F:\Photo) and auto imported the photo's to that place the problem was solved. Why ? I don't know

Upgraded to Firefox 4.0 Can see and use all old bookmarks folders and bookmarks, but cannot see any of the old folders when I attempt to bookmark a new page- only see Bookmarks toolbar & Menu and unsorted bookmarks

Had several bookmarks folders under old Firefox. After upgrade to 4.0 all of these still work via bookmarks menu. Problem is, when I attempt to bookmark a new page and place it in one of my existing bookmarks folders with 4.0, the only folders that Firefox can see are the bookmarks toolbar, bookmarks menu, and unsorted bookmarks. How do I get Firefox to see the old folders so that I can continue to put bokmarked pages in them??

In the "Edit this Bookmark" window, use the 2nd drop-down button, that is to the right of the "Folder", to open a larger window that will allow more folder to appear. See the sloppy red arrow on the screenshot below.

When I try to add a new event to iCal a dialog says "you can't add or change events in the Birthday Calendar". How do I cancel this?

When I try to add a New Event to iCal a dialog box keeps saying "you can't add or change events in the Birthday Calendar". iCal is, however, receiving up-dates from my other devoces via iCloud. Can anyone help unblock this for me please?

You can not add events to the birthday's calendar. To add birthday's to the birthday calendar you need to add the birthday to a contact in the Contacts app.
You can set your default calendar here:
iCal > Preferences > General > Default Calendar and chose the calendar you want to default to.

When I attempt to send a new AIM message it defaults to sending an iMessage. Is there a way around this?

I use Mac Messages app for iMessage, SMS, AIM, & Google Chat. When I attempt to send a new AIM message it defaults to sending an iMessage. Is there a way around this?
I have my preferences set to save messages history in my Mac Messages app and the issue seems to arise when I attempt to send a new AIM message to someone that I have recently had an iMessage conversation with. I have tried right clicking the person's name in my buddy list and selecting "Start New Chat" and it appears as though I'm writing a new AIM message to them but when I send the message it defaults back to an iMessage. AIM is used for daily communication by everyone in my company and used heavily throughout my industry. Considering a majority of my contacts don't have iMessage synced to their Messages/AIM app on their desktop it is ineffective and disruptive to send an iMessage instead of an AIM.
Any insight or help would be appreciated. I'd love to find a solution without having to turn off the save messages history setting in my Mac Messages app.
Thanks-
Adam

Hi,
The Name at the "To" spot should become a drop down and this should show you the various ways you can connect to them.
A "Chat" with someone can then switch between the various options if they have several ways.
As @mac.com and other Apple issued ID can also be AIM valid Screen Names you sometimes have to take a little care.
If you have made it to be an AIM chat though it should not switch back to iMessages even if that was the last method they used to contact you.
I find in Mavericks (that I am currently booted into) I can double click the Buddy Line in the Buddy List (And I have my Buddy List separate) the Chat will take on the AIM item in the text field.
This was an iMessages conversation before this.
I presume this still works in Yosemite.

Can't add a new NOWS SBE 2.5 server to an existing eDir

Hi!
I have problem to add a new NOWS SBE 2.5 server to an existing tree.
I'm using the WEB administration interface > add-remove > eDirectory install.
At the end the message is:
"There was a problem with the component installation.
NDS Configuration failed. Please re-install and verify all IP Addresses, Server Contexts and Passwords. If the install involved a remote tree, also verify time synchronization between the servers."
Please help
TIA

The "problem" is that eDir doesn't appear as INTALLED in the WEB administration interface.
Questions:
1. How it can influence the other components installations?
2. Shall I continue and install the other components using the WEB administation like installing the iManager?
3. I'm trying to install NCP. It was supposed to be installed automatically when installing eDir.
TIA

Hi Nanu,
I'm glad you got it working. This is what you have to remember about NOWS SBE...
The install scripts install components in a certain way and add the ability to manage them from the Simba web interface. When the components don't install correctly and you open an SR, my experience has been that the Engineer tries to get the product installed and working rather than trying to fix the problem that caused the install to fail.
When you say that he did a manual install, that can mean several things:
If he manually ran the NOWS SBE install script it should be installed the way NOWS SBE expects it to be.
If he installed the component the way he would normally do on an OES system, then the NOWS SBE specific components/configuration are likely missing.
If option 2 was used, you may have issues trying to manage the component from the Simba GUI and may experience other issues as you try to install other components. I expect it will also affect the installation of patches. I now choose to manually install all components and not use the Simba GUI just to avoid these issues. If the Simba web interface doesn't show eDir as installed, it is likely you won't be able to install other components that depend on it.
If you suspect the Engineer fixed eDir but broke NOES SBE, I would reopen the SR or open a new one and let Novell correct the problem. Another option might be to begin a new installation and manually install all the components.
