Lightroom not loading custom settings and imported presets when launched

So I read an article about deleting windows temp files and I did so with the intention of bring my computer back up to speed.
The recycle bin has since been emptied.
When I launch Lightroom in Windows XP my previously imported presets as well as a couple other custom settings (ID plate) don't show up. I have to re-import them everytime I launch Lightroom unless I'm opening a previous cataloge.
Any ideas?

Here's my entire process -
1 - load my SD card in to my computer and import RAW files in to a file on my computer and on to an external hard drive.
2 - remove the connection of my external hard drive
3 - Open LR 5 - Import the files I just loaded to my computer
4 - go to develop in LR 5 make my edits
5 - when done or done for the day on my edits - I back up my LR 5 library and close LR 5
6 - To start editing again - I open my LR 5 with the same library I closed the day before and here is where the hiccup comes in.
Files are always in the same location & file names that I named them when I did the initial import to my computer and external hard drive.  I have Windows 8 OS.
No, there were not "!" on any of the images.

  • I installed the latest version of iTunes (10.6.3.25) on a new Windows 7 PC.  I can see ahred libraries on Shared but can't import as the line containing the Settings and Import buttons does not display.   Any suggestions?

    To move the iTunes library to this new computer I switched on Home Sharing and can see the other libraries on my home network.  If I select tracks from a Shared library I can't import them as the strip containing "Show: All Items" and the "Settings" and "Import" buttons, does not display at the bottom of the screen.  Goes straight from the list of tracks to the strip with Playlist icons and xxxx items, tttttt total time, yyyy GB. 
    Any suggestions for making the Import button appear?

  • Are Easy Setups with Custom Capture and Sequence Presets Portable?

    Hi,
    I created some Custom Capture and Sequence Presets. Then I created some Easy Setups that use these presets.
    Can I copy the Easy Setups to another machine or do I need to create or copy the Custom Presets in order for the Easy Setups to work?
    If I need to copy or create the Custom Presets how can I copy them (which files do they live in)?
    Thanks!
    Mitch

    These files are located in HD/Library/Application Support/Final Cut Pro System Support/Settings... so just drag the custom setups from there to a flash drive or CD and then place them in the other system's folder in the same path.

    Hi Jerry,
    Thanks for the reply. The Easy Setups are in the directory you mentioned but the Custom Presets are not.
    My question is are the custom presets used by the Easy Setup contained inside the Easy Setups? If not are there files I can copy or do I need to manually create them on the second Mac?
    Since the other Mac is 50 miles away I have no easy way to test this. If there are files I can bring rather than redoing the custom presets that would be quite a bit easier.
    Thanks Again!

  • Upgrading to V4 has lost all of my Bookmarks, I still have the restore files in my profile data but they will not load, I have tried importing the html backup file too but it didn't work either. How can I get them back?

    Upgrading to V4 has lost all of my Bookmarks, I still have the restore files in my profile data but they will not load, I have tried importing the html backup file too but it didn't work either. How can I get them back?

    Ok this is bizzare!
    Thank you for your response, I went throught each and every step without any luck, even got the recovery programme, and painstakingly tried to sift through all that mumbojumbo to find what i needed. finally found the bookmark bit, but it had been fully overwritten :(, so on reading about previous ff versions, found the sqlite thingys, and they were relatively unscathed(partly written over, but saveable apparently TG), saved them to adiff drive, amongst other possibly good folders. Then looked up how to install them, and it said to close FF, and install to profile folder.
    So i tried to close FF, and the original problem from a few days ago, where it asked me if 'i was sure i wanted to close this window as it has X tabs open', popped up again. This is where 'open blank page' selection was set, over 'open previous tabs'. Wanting to save that info on how to sort out these friggin files, I reset the Option to 'open previous tabs', and closed FF. After unsucessfully searching for the profile folder on my laptop, i opened FF intending to search online for where i could find said folder.
    AND BANG, surprise surprise, the FF I had just closed with only tabs open about finding out what the heck to do, had disappeared, and instead my original saved tabs were up, and my bookmarks are there..... I am gobsmacked! what the heck just happened there???
    I have made 3 back up in different folders now, of those friggin bookmarks. I am weary now tho of shutting it all down.... what if its back to the other pages I had with no bookmarks, tomorrow :(

  • Lost settings and import tab on with itunes 10

    We've lost the settings and import tabs that are supposed to be at the lower right in itunes.  Any idea how to get them back.  And/or how else to import music from an old computer to a new one using home sharing.

    You can restore much of the look & feel of the previous version with these shortcuts:
    ALT to temporarily display the menu bar
    CTRL+B to show or hide the menu bar
    CTRL+S to show or hide the sidebar
    CTRL+/ to show or hide the status bar (won't hide for me on Win XP)
    Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
    Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
    If you don't like having different coloured background & text in the Album view use Edit > Preferences > General and untick Use custom colours for open albums, movies, etc.

  • Adobe After Effects CS6 not loading ExporterQuickTimeHost.pr and ImporterQuickTimeHost.pr

    Hi,
    Adobe After Effects CS6 not loading ExporterQuickTimeHost.pr and ImporterQuickTimeHost.pr.
    We have tried disabling the windows firewall and turning off our Antivirus but it makes no difference.
    The program launches with the quicktime plug-inns perfectly when ran as local administrator but will not work as any other user.
    Other users do not have local admin rights, only write access to their profile path and the C:/temp folder.
    Any help and assitance would be appreciated.
    Is there a directory that the users need access to on the C drive?
    Many Thanks

    Hi,
    I have updated to 11.0.4 and the issue still persists.
    Could someone please advise.

  • Tried to reinstall PS CS6 from download, will not load after download and install, need assistance

    I tried to reinstall PS CS6 from download, will not load after download and install, need assistance.
    Thank you.

    Thanks for the suggestion - but I eventually tried again and was able to contact via "chat" to someone qualified to help. The problem was that in my existing "bridge" - preference was (I think by default) - checked to startup in background on Login. I did not realize this - because I don't think I set it that way in the first place (maybe I did a few years ago) - and I could not see anything in task manager to suggest that bridge was running an application or any process - but when I learned this - I was successful in installing PS CS6.
    Yes, I'm still not on solid ground re: whether or not I want to change from "owning" the tool or renting it -- what concerns me is that is sounds like regardless of users wishes, Adobe is headed in this direction and will eventually make it financially more feasible to go that route. At the moment I think they are "asking" for everyone to get on their bandwagon, but who knows. They have a powerful set of tools, that they continue to support and advance - and along with those development and support costs, they also would like to make a profit - so I understand if their past marketing model is no longer sufficient.
    Thanks again.

  • How do you set up to back up iPad notes in iCloud?  I turned on backing up notes in iCloud settings, and it asked me to create a .me account, which I did, but I don't see my notes anywhere on iCloud, and I never received a password for my .me account.

    You'll find your notes under Mail in iCloud. There's a separate folder on the left that's labeled notes so you can access them anywhere. And your me.com account will have the same password as your Apple ID (in fact, you can log into iCloud with just your Apple ID, as the two accounts are permanently linked).
