Lightroom opens with all inserted media

Everytime I plug my external drives, thumb drives, and even iPod, Lightroom fires up, ready to import every single image. I commend its egerness, but it is irritating.
LR 2.7, Windows 7 32bit

Edit/Preferences/Import/Show import dialog when a memory card is detected should be not checked.

I have a FCP event and project with all accompanying media saved on a harddrive. I am now attempting to open the files on another computer that also has FCP X. I cannot figure out how to get it to open.

The events and projects folders have to be on the top level of the drive for FCP to recognize them.

Lightroom "Open With," "Open As..." Links to Photoshop 5.1 grayed out.

I am working with the latest versions of Photoshop, Lightroom & ACR. A couple of weeks ago I noticed that the links to Photoshop from Lightroom were all grayed out. for example when I right click on an image and select "Open With," it and all of the rest of the links to Photoshop are grayed out and inaccessable. I have been using Photoshop since v2 ansd Lightroom since v1. My operating system in Win 7.
I read some related messages in the forum and followed advice to uninstall and reinstall Photoshop to reestablish the links. I spent about two hours doing that yesterday. when I was done the links were back and functional. I left the compluter on all night to make sure everything was backed up. This morning I opened Lightroom (64bit) and attempted to open an image in Photoshop for editing. All of the links were grayed out again.
So today I uninstalled and reinstalled Lightroom. Still no luck.
Please, if anybody has insight regarding this issue please let me know.
Thanks, Jim

Well I wish I could say that my issue was fixed but it is back. After reinstalling PS the links worked. During the same session, after leaving the computer for a while and coming back, the links were broken again. I am at my wits end and can't imagine myself reinstalling Photoshop several times a day. If I can't get a resolution I will have to eliminate Lightroom from my workflow.

Is it possible to use Time Capsule as my Itunes media folder? So I could store all my media out of my mac, but still can synchronise Ipad and Iphone with all those media stored on TC out of my mac.

I want to store all my media on my Time Capsule.
Can I use TC as the defaut folder for medias in Itunes? If so, will the synchronisation with Iphone and Ipad be possible?

Lightroom 2.1 Opens with card inserted to card reader

Lightroom 2.1 opens whenever a card is inserted to the card reader. The fix provided for Lightroom 1 does not work (run/msconfig/startup/uncheck apdproxy). What is the fix for 2.1?
I looked and did not see it. It is so frustrating that if not able to fix, I will uninstal and revert to the previous version of lightroom.
Sincere thanks in advance.

Try Edit>>Preferences>>Import Uncheck Show import dialog when a memory
card is detected.

Asio Driver issue in Premiere Pro CC conflicting with all other media players on PC

Whenever I have Premiere or audition or After effects opened---- should I want to play a media clip on J River Media center, or Windows Media Player, the Asio driver is locked by the Adobe products, so the other media players do not have access to it. This may be a new windows 8.1 phenomenon, as i never had this before with 64 bit Windows 7.
I have had some success running the other media players on the lousey windows sound drivers, but they don't sound nearly as good as the Asio driver does, with its near zero latency.
My sound card is a Lynx aes 16, and the Win 8.1 PC pushes the digital audio out to my Berkely DAC , then to separate mono bloc amps, into Magnepan speakers as the reference audio system for my music and video editing....or for entertainment listening :-)
Does anyone have a solution that will force the Adobe CC software to release the Asio driver when I try to use J River Media center, or some other media player?

I had this problem this evening 090813 after upgrading my Adobe Cloud Desktop.
I open Pro CC and had the Dolby Audio Decode Licensing Restriction for (File name.......... ) Error
Previous CC progs loaded and worked with problem.
I uninstalled Pro CC - Restarted the computer - Re-installed Pro CC.
Now working with no problem.
Hope this helps.

Hello, I´m using Lightroom 5 with all updates. If I import photos often I get the information, that some smart-"Vorschauen" could not create. I´m using a MacBook Pro. All other functions are well. What can I do?

If you need further information, feel free to contact me.

Hi Andy,
I'm using Mac OSX 10.7.5
No the one with the caps seems to be working normally.This project with the caps now has four files. Originally I created it with about fifteen. I deleted eleven of them and edited the remaining four. The four files each have one version and its original. It wasn't until after I completed this work that I noticed the privious project when opened and scrolled had the entire library in it.
The test I did went like this. With the problem opened I deleted one file that I new existed prior to this problem. I than opened that project that I new it was from to see if it got deleted and found it gone and moved to trash. I think that tells me that if I delete all the files in the problem project I'll be in trouble. I also have inported to projects each with one file that I edited. They are working fine. I took a look in the problem project and this last
two imports show the thumdnails in it.
Currently on my Hard Drive I have 275 GB free space. My photo's take up 138 GB. As I said on Dec. 1st I backed up the system using time machine. So all of Dec. and part of Jan. inports won't be on it. I could work around the problem project and move those file to a safe place. I think it best not to back up the system with Time Machine until I'm confident the Aperture is runing properly. I'm happy that I control these system backups manually.
I'll need to find out how to copy the Aperture library to another place. I'm sure I can poke around and fined out the process.
Thanks Andy for the come back!

CC file saved in cs6, won't open with all layers in both versions

Hello there,
I really hope you could help me.
Recently i designed a scetch in illustrator CC and saved it as usual (without extra options).
Yesterday i worked on this same file in illustrator CS6, which i found acting weird but not paying attention and i saved it again as usual in the same file.
Today i wanted to work on it again in illustrator CS6, but there are missing layers and all the layers i made yesterday are grouped and are in clipping masks.
The worst part is i'm missing my sketch i made in illustrator CC!
I've tried to open the file in illustrator CC too but it shows exactly the same, no sketch and all layers grouped and in clipping masks.
I now know i had to save the file in illustrator CC with the extra options for multiple versions of illustrator
Could anybody help me?
The only positive thing is you can see the sketch etc. i made earlier in the preview when you want to open the file in illustrator cs6, that is why i hope it is not really gone!

When opening a new file with an old version (CC file with CS6 in your case) you always open the PDF part of the file. In this PDF almost everything is flattened. There are no live effects, brushes or stuff. When you then edit this file in the legacy version and save you alo effectively delete any live stuff that once was there in the AI part of the file.
Please read this:
http://rwillustrator.blogspot.de/2006/11/whats-in-file.html
When you want to edit newer files in older versions you always have to downsave. And even then things might get flattened, depending on which version exactly you save down to which other version.
So unless you have a backup of the old file, your content is lost.

I just did an update to 6.0 on Lion. Now when I re-open Safari after closing it by clicking the red button it re-opens to my home page, not all my previous tabs.. prior to the update it would re-open with all my previous tabs, which is what I want.

I just did an update to Lion 10.7.4 with Safari 6.0. Now when I re-open Safari after closing it by clicking the red button, it re-opens to just my home page, not to all my previous tabs as it did before the update. I prefer having my old tabs re-open. How can I fix this?

I've had what I think is the same problem since the most recent software update. I have Lion 10.7.4 and have updated to Safari 6.0. The most noticeable difference is that where previously I had two boxes at the top of the Safari window (one to enter URL addresses, one for Google searches), there is now only one box for both functions. I don't like that as well, but I can live with it. However, since the most recent software update my "back button" only works about 5% of the time. Most of the time it is grayed out. So I usually can't get back to previous pages using the back button. Also, when I've clicked a link that opens a new window (for instance, going through the return process at Amazon, I clicked UPS locator and it opened a new window), where in the past I would have just clicked the red button after I had the information, the UPS locator window would have closed, and I would have been back at Amazon - now if I close the UPS locator window, all Safari windows close. The Safari application doesn't close, but the Amazon window closes, I'm back to an empty screen, and I have to open a new Safari window and reenter everything. I'm using a work-around of clicking on History and selecting the description of the window I want to get back too, but that only works part of the time. In the Amazon example, that's what I did once I had the UPS info, but even though I clicked the correct window description, it took me back to the beginning of the return process & I had to reenter all the info. Of course, that info was easy to reenter, but if I'm in the middle of a complicated process, it's a big problem. I've filed a bug report; I surely hope the Apple engineers are able to fix this. I'm used to using the back button function a lot!

How do i get to watch something that will only open with window's media?

Sorry if this is a dumb question but we are new to the mac and have been trying to get some way to get windows media videos to play on our new mac. I tried to download the software to let them play on quicktime but it says that it can't play on an intel machine.....So then i tried to download windows media for mac from their website and when i do i see a file on the desktop called windows media.sitx. When i try to open it it says that there is no program to open this program. So what is next? I have not been able to find anything about this out there so any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
matt

here is a download for the beta version for Intel Mac of Flip4Mac.
Download it, install and it should work.

Illustrator files opening with all layers flattened into 1.

http://tinypic.com/r/afhcg5/5
This image is directly from a customer’s email. An Illustrator template for custom candy bags is sent to the customer and has about 10 layers on it. Somehow they always come back as Layer 1, flattened. I am opening them up in CS5. Can anyone advise on why a multi layered file constantly comes back from our customers as a single layer? Having all layers is very important for these bags to print properly. Any help would be appreciated!

Yes, we are sending a layered .PDF that was created from an .AI file. We are also sending the .AI file as well. I am trying to save the .AI file back to CS3 so our customers can open the files.
We are not zipping anything though, and we are not requiring our customers to zip anything back either. We are going to start doing this....

I want Safari to open with all windows from last session.

I have selected that option from the preferences menu, but it doesn't work. It just opens a new page. What do I do?

System Preferences > General
Uncheck the box next to "Close windows when quitting an application".
Hope this helps.

We were in England for 6 wks and now everything opens in the uk, we are back to the states and I want to have it open with all the US addresses

I do not understand why it did this because I did nothing manually to change it to the UK addresses but it did it on its own and now that we are back it is still coming up with the Uk addresses on everything. How do I get it to go back to the US addresses?
