Lightroom Menu 1.1 hangs

While I have been using V 1.1 for a while now, only recently the menu button i. e. File Edit Develop Photo etc, have become irresponsive. When you try to open them the program freezes or hangs up for minutes before the menu briefly pops up and disappear again.
Anybody else has seen this?
Thank you

According to one researcher/PhD candidate/successful about 50% of all computer errors are hardware related. Unfortunately, those errors are capable of causing disk errors in the code for any program. Esp on that does lots of read/writes such as LR.
That can lead to a sudden problem with LR. And then there are the situation where LR "asks" for a card reader connection. It should of course "forget it" if the request is not answered in a few seconds. Instead it seems to wait. The OS should also "time out" the response back from the card reader and tell LR it is a no go. Whose problem is this? Possibly both. Also it doesn't seem to be a problem on all computers. Why, who knows.
Finally in XP applications, the old bugaboo of order of load seems to show up in certain circumstances.
So, just because one's hardware runs pretty well, doesn't mean that you don't have problems. Since I don't seem to have any of those problems, I am assuming my hardware is working well now. Maybe not in the future. I am on the alert.

  • Lightroom mobile sync "hangs" - I am trying to sync several small LR collections from my desktop computer.  The first collection syncs, and then Lightroom syncing seems to hang.  It shows "Syncing 150 photos" in top left, but never progresses even after c

    I am using Lightroom 5.5 on OS X.  I have created several small collections with about 180 images and I am trying to sync them via Lightroom mobile for later iPad access.  The first collection syncs properly, and then Lightroom syncing seems to hang.  The label in the upper right shows "Syncing 150 photos" but does not count down.  Opening and closing LR does not restart the process.

    PROBLEM STILL EXISTS...
    I spoke to soon!  I tried adding a couple of more collections to sync.  Lightroom shows "Syncing 814" photos on upper left, but never apparently syncs any.  If I exit Lightroom it notifies me there are 814 images to sync.  When I reopen it seems to pick up and stall where it left off.  These new collections are not posting - this is the same problem as before.
    I am pretty sure there is a serious bug in Lightroom here.  I encourage support to contact me.

  • Lightroom 5.4 backup hangs upon finish, relaunches new dialog box

    Is this a bug? I have a recurring Lightroom 5.4 issue on quitting. I have it set up to backup catalog every week upon exit. When the time comes each week, the backup proceeds, but doesn't end -- it just hangs while a new, second dialog box asking to backup once again appears. Lightroom will not quit until i click on this new dialog box -- this happens each time I backup, no matter what my settings change to. Is it backing up twice, or once, or not at all? Why do I have to be present in order for the backup to actually finish? Please help!
    Here's a screenshot. Note the new, second dialog box at bottom. Thank you!!

  • Lightroom 5.7 import hangs up

    I have Lightroom 5.7 running on a PC, 8.1 Windows op system.  Lightroom 5 opens and I can get to the library but when I try and import more pictures for a new collection, it hangs up and I get a message: "Adobe Photoshop Lightoom 64 has stopped working. A problem caused teh program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."  I never hear back (of course) from Windows or Microsoft.  Would it help to eliminate all the other collections I have on Lightroom?  It seems to be happening more and more that Import hangs up and won't operate.  It is longer than just the pause while it looks for sources on my several external drives.  Thank you!

    Possibility #1: http://members.lightroomqueen.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/1137/188/how-do-i- change-my-monitor-profile-to-check-whether-its-corrupted
    Possibility #2: you need to delete your preview cache, this is a folder whose name end with Previews.LRDATA. Do not delete the .LRCAT file in the same folder.

  • When exporting many videos with Lightroom 5, the process hangs randomly and needs to be restarted.

    When exporting few videos, the process hangs randomly. The processor performance is 0 % and the lightroom says it is working (actually it is not). I have to quit lightroom, kill all processes like amecommand.exe, Adobe Media Core, Adobe Dynamic Link Manager and restart the process. It stops randomly.
    I am exporting ALL-I videos from Canon 5D mark  III, into H264, high quality.
    PS: The same situation was with Lightroom 4.

    Hello,
    i have the same problem on LR5.5 on Win 7 (8G RAM)
    Thank you for any help.

  • Lightroom launches then immediately hangs

    Lightroom 3 succesfully loaded and succesfully used for past couple of wmonths. When launched last week the library page appeared just as I had left it but suddenly went'semi-transparent' and the machine hung. The error message was " Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64 bit has stopped working and windows is checking for a solution to the problem" No such solution is forthcoming. Have loaded version 3.2 with the same result. Loaded L3 onto my laptop and run in 32 bit and it works perfectly. Only software that might have been loaded between sessions was a HP printer driver which has since been uninstalled. Assistance very much appreciated. Aldso had initial problems with Adobe Premiere on the same computer but in those instances the programme could be re-starteed after re-booting the machine. That problem has now gone away.

    Hi Dorin,
    Thanks for response. Pref files deleted: still hangs. Created 2nd. catalog as you suggest but still hangs when that opened. Cannot now get opportunity to create another catalog via Ctrl+open software. Any other ideas? Should I just try and get a copy of lightroom 2?
    Regards,
    Keith

  • Lightroom 2.5 intermittent hangs

    I'm a heavy Lightroom user, and I have never seen this problem with previous releases of Lightroom or Mac OS X. In the midst of viewing (not editing) images, the normally responsive LR 2.5 occasionally hangs for as long as five minutes at a time, then resumes as if nothing went wrong. The rest of my system runs fine during the hang, and LR is using only about 2% CPU. No disk activity either. The problem happens randomly -- it is not related to specific image(s).
    Mac Pro, latest version of Snow Leopard, 4 GB memory, dual-core Intel Xeon, 2.66 GHz
    LR 2.5, latest ACR, running in 32-bit mode
    Images: Nikon D300 raw mode
    Graphics: RadeonX1900
    Can anyone shed light on this?
    This is what the call graph looks like when I sample Lightroom during the hang:

    Could you tell me how you produced your call graph?
    I am trying to get my Lightroom working again (post Snow Leopard upgrade). and perhaps this will shed some light (npi) on my problem.
    shawn
    p.s.
    details:
    Removing the previews,lrdata file did NOT resolve the problem for me btw.
    Lightroom (2.5) worked fine for me before upgrading to Snow Leopard. Since then, no joy.
    I have tried re-installing the 2.5 update.
    I have tried toggling the 32-bit 64-bit checkbox.
    I have tried removing any and all plugins (e.g., LRG) from relevent folders.
    Lightroom just goes into an "application not responding" mode and doesn't even bother to show me a blank screen.
    Note that it *does* have time to ask me to back up my catalogues.
    And it does have time to touch the "Lightroom 2 Catalog.lrcat" file.
    And a process listing (top or ps) does show the process (ps shows 0 cpu and 0 memory usage). Telling LR to do a backup doesn't succeed (nothing shows up newly in  the folder where the older backups are).
    Beurk. :-(
    Anyone have any suggestions to get my Lightroom working again?

  • There is no Lightroom menu (drop down) on my menu strip.

    At the top of the monitor where the menu strip has "file" "edit" "develop", etc., my understanding is that there is suppose to be another menu titled "Lightroom" to the left of "file." The tutorial I am following says that the "Lightroom" dropdown has "Preferences" "Identity Plate Setup..." Services" "Hide Lightroom" "Hide Others" "Show All" "Quit Lightroom" so how can I get that drop down????
    Gerald

    Mucho Thanks.....I cannot believe that I did not see the "Identity Plate" under Edit.....and thanks for all the other explanations....
    I am going to send Chris Orwig, the man who did the tutorial for lynda.com an email saying he didn't tell us PC folks where the Identity Plate was. He normally tells the PC folks what their option would be.
    Oh well....you made my day....

  • Lightroom 4.3 suddenly hangs-up

    Importing Canon RAW files,  "copy as DNG", Lightroom 4.3 creates the DNG files (I can see them using Windows Explorer) but never adds the files to the Catalog, even after waiting over night.
    Also tried opening a new catalog.  It also exhibits the same behavior, So possibly something is wrong with the RAW files; but, they open just fine usiig Photoshop Elements 10 which also opens the DNG files hat Lightroom created.

    Well, after several retries of getting the LR installer to work, it suddenly just worked.  LR3 is working in Win 8 for me now.  All I need is for Epson to finally release Win 8 drivers for the R1900.

  • Lightroom 4.3 installer hangs in Win 8

    I'm having no luck at all installing Adobe products in Win 8 64-bit.  I downloaded LR 4.3 and tried to install it.  The Photoshop Lightroom 4.3 Installer window opens with "Preparing files," and says that the downloaded files are being extracted.  According to the progress bar, nothing is being extracted, and it just sits there doing nothing.  I have another message here describing how the CS6 installer will not initialize on this computer. Could these be related?  Any ideas would be appreciated.

  • Windows 7 hangs from boot menu

    Hi,
    my Windows 7 partition refuses to start from boot menu, system just hangs and does nothing. I've not made any changes to the disk layout, only thing I can think of is the upgrade to 10.9.4 which probably changed the recovery partition.
    History:
    - iMac Mavericks 10.9.3 with boot camp 5.1.2 and Windows 7, used to start into Windows by pressing Alt on start up, then reboot from Windows menu or from Windows boot camp application into OS X and back without problems
    - installed the 10.9.4 Build 13E28 upgrade some days ago
    - Change today: rebooted from the boot camp system tray app into OS X, worked without a problem
    - reboot from OS X into boot menu, select Windows 7 partition, system hangs
    I've found this thread, describing a similar problem Repairing Boot Camp after creating new partition I think, however since my Index output only lists 4 partitions I think my problem might be a bit different.
    Here's the output from: sudo gpt -r -vv show disk0

    I guess something mixed up the MBR since I would have expected line 4 of the fdisk output to show something 'Windows' like instead of HPFS/QNX/AUX, but even if that is correct, the question is how can the boot problem be fixed?
    The Windows partition is accessible from OS X, so copying the data is not a problem if everything else fails. As far as I remember, the boot camp version in windows is 3.3 (it's an older iMac model).
    GDisk is available, command line not a problem, if you need any further info let me know, any help appreciated.
    thanks,

    Hi,
    > Does the Bootcamp partition show up in Finder and can you see files in it?
    Yes, the partition shows up in Finder and I can see and copy files.
    > In Disk Utility, does the Bootcamp partition report as NTFS?
    Yes it does, "Get Info" from Finder also reports it as a NTFS volume.
    > Do you have any third party NTFS drivers?
    Yes I have, Paragon NTFS tools.
    > If you hold the ALT key can you boot into Windows?
    No, system just hangs and needs to be rebooted via power-off.
    > If you came from 10.9.3 to 10.9.4, the Recovery HD should have existed under 10.9.3.
    Yes it did, I did a clean install from USB media when Mavericks came out, the Recovery HD is also visible - and has been - in the boot menu.
    > The one strange part is that your volume says "Windows 7". Were any diskutil commands run to change volume names?
    No, just a left click on the Volume Name in Finder and then change Bootcamp to Windows 7.

    So, you think running the Windows startup repair will fix the problem? Is there something that I should be aware of in terms of interfering with the OS X partition?

  • Applicaiton form hangs when trying to make C# form visible from menu event

    I have a MDI windows app, running as an addon on Verion 2007A
    The applicaion is written in C# ( VS 2005)
    I am a newbee to C# ( VS too ) as well.
    All I want is to display the MDI container form when a menu is clicked. But the windows form hangs forever, and does not show.
    if I try to show the form within Main method then no issues! The problem happens only off the SBO menu event .
    I cannot have the form loaded all the time. so I need the services of the SBO menu click, so a user can open it whenever he wants.
    Note: I can open any other form off the menu click, but that , provided they are not MDI containers and they are opened with ShowDialog(); If I use Show(); then again hangs.
    I tried opening the MDI form in Main method, ( wich of course works) and hide it when not needed. I could hide the form, but when I issued a command myForm.visible = true;  through the SBO menu event, again hangs!
    my applicaion Main function is as follows. The class AA_SBO_MAIN  holds the SBO application events.
    static void Main()
                Application.EnableVisualStyles();
                Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
                Classes.AA_SBO_MAIN oSBOMain = null;
                oSBOMain = new Classes.AA_SBO_MAIN(); 
                 Application.Run();        
    the menu event simply does
                  frmMain fm = new frmMain();
                  fm.Visible = true;

    Hi
    I try doing these few steps and it seems to work!  The code is in Visual Basic though!
    Declare the form variable
    Private mMDI As New frmMDI
    In your menu click event enter a code like this
    If mMDI Is Nothing Then mMDI = New frmMDI
    mMDI.Visible = True
    On your startup function do something like this
    Public Sub New()
           mMDI.Show() : mMDI.Visible = False
    End Sub
    And more important ... in the form class comment all the code inside the Dispose method
    and finally do the following
    Private Sub frmMDI_Closed(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Closed
            Me.Hide()
    End Sub
    it seems to work for me . Hope it helps you too!

  • Bug: Lightroom 3.3 hang when importing video

    On Windows, Lightroom 3.3 will hang when importing .AVI videos when the following is true:
    - Move or Copy (not Add)
    - Rename Files is selected
    - Filename pattern includes "exposure"
    Changin to a pattern that only includes date and time will make the import succeed.

    If it really failed in ntdll.dll it might be a system issue.  Make sure you disable all real-time anti-virus processes, and make sure your Windows system is up-to-date.
    Otherwise, it will be hard to know what is going on. If it persists, open a support ticket with Adobe. Take a look in the event viewer to make sure you have all the details of the crash.

  • Lightroom 4.3 hanging whilst editing picture

    I'm regularly getting the following error when using lightroom.  It can happen at anytime though usually in the develop module, Lightroom will start to hang and then i'll get the following windows error.  This has happened in in Lightroom 4.1, 4.2 and now with the 4.3RC.  I'm running windows 7 64 bit with a Core i5-2500k cpu running at 3.3GHz with 16gb or RAM.  I've tried uninstalling and starting afresh with LR and still getting the same issue.  I've tried using back up catalogues but still getting the same issue. I've had the image files on both internal and external hard drives to no change in behaviour.  There doesn't seem to be any pattern as to when it starts to hang I can be moving from one image to the next or moving a slider to adjust an image. Once i've closed LR i can reopen it straight away.  Sometimes it'll hang again immediately sometimes it'll not crash again for hours.  Any suggestions would be gratefully received as this is beginning to drive me mad!

    This could be due to a corrupt Preference File. This file can go "funny" and is then responsible for all kinds of strange behavior of Lr. The remedy is replacing the Preference File.
    BTW: Re-installing Lr ddoes not replace the Pref. File since it is designed to "survive" upgrades.
    See here for where to find the Preference file for your OS: http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/preference-file-locations-lightroo m-4.html

  • Photoshop hangs on launch of encore menu

    I've been using a menu repeatedly in different projects for a month or so... and now suddenly when I click the 'edit in photoshop button' on my menu's, photoshop hangs, followed by the error 'Adobe Photoshop Cs5 has stopped working.' and then windows closes the program.
    Any ideas as to the cause or cure to this annoyance?
    (I am going to cross post in the Photoshop forum, I just thought since this problem is somewhat encore related maybe someone here would know the solution)
    David

    Are you able to launch Photoshop directly (not using Encore)?
