Lightroom was unable to optimize the catalog - Error Since Loading v1.3

I just installed Lightroom v1.3 over Lightroom v1.2. Since then, I have been unable to optimize the catalog. When I try, it looks like it is working for a while, and then gives me this message. 'Lightroom was unable to optimize the catalog and must quit. The next time you run Lightroom, it will check the catalog for problems."
I have tried multiple times to restart Lightroom and Windows and reoptimize, but same message. I tried with a two week old catalog file, but still get the message. I uninstalled v1.3 and reloaded v1.2 and tried with the current catalog file and with older catalog files, still get message.
Lightroom v1.2 and v1.3 runs, but I have noticed things running slower with v1.3 and I have to restart more often due to Lightroom slowdown. I need to be able to optimize to keep things running as fast as possible.
Lightroom Catalog.lrcat is 1.3 GB
Approximately 75,000 images
Windows XP Profession Service Pack 2
Pentium 4 2.80GHz
2GB RAM
Normally, I back up the database 2-5 times a week and optimize the DB 3-6 times a week, along with keeping the hard drive defragged.

Is your machine maxing out during these times? My guess is it's got 10-50,000 left photos to update to v 1.3. It may be not a good thing to switch between the two versions. Until more definitive answers can be found, perhaps running a new catalog for new work might be a good plan, using only v 1.3.

Hi I'm getting Lightoom error when trying to edit in Nik Software "Lightroom was unable to prepare the selected file at /Volumes/Portable C/Kite Skating nikon/_DHT9654.NEF for editing. It will not be opened.

what does this mean? can anyone help?

Yes it is on a portable drive yet I have already worked with it and exported it as a jpg. The problem arises whenever I try to edit in the plug-ins from Nik software...this just happened recently as it never happened before...for years?

Lightroom was unable to prepare the selected file at (file path to image) for editing. it wil

I have been using lightroom since Beta and this is the first issue that I can't seem to fix.
I was working on some files editing in external editors - PS5 & Niksoftware I had worked on 4 or 5 images no problems, working awesome as normal. Then I decided to get rid of one of the files - an edited image - when it asked to remove from lightroom or from disk, I clicked, remove from disk. I never do that but trying to be better with space. Then tried to edit a different image and the error "Lightroom was unable to prepare the selected file at (NEF - the proper location) for editing. it will not be opened." comes up.
I looked on line and one answer was to delete the preference file and then restart, which also meant reloading the catalogue. All of which worked no problem but the error still is coming up. I have restarted lightroom and the computer a couple of times, in different sequences
I have lightroom 5.3 64 bit on windows 7, as I said all working perfectly until deleting one file.
Anybody have any ideas for me?

I had this error message, too. Turned out it was due to my use of subst to create a virtual drive letter for my photo library. See Lightroom 3.2 - Using subst to a local drive fails for the solution! (even with LR 5.5, still)

LR was unable to export the catalog's previews and negatives

My first posting in this forum. I want to remove everything from my iMac in order to upgrade from Tiger to Snow Leopard, then reload back. First job is to 'Export as Catalog' all my pics (around 6000) from the Mac to an external hard drive (Maxtor One Touch 4Plus, 450 GB available). I've tried 6 or 7 times and every time get a similar message - see Subject line. I've deleted unnecessary folders, gotten rid of unused keywords, and exported 2000 odd of my earlier photos as JPEGS to archive to reduce the volume. I've reloaded LR and updated to 2.6. And in the Export dialogue box I've ticked 'Export Negative Files' and 'Include Available Previews'. The export gets to about three quarters of the way through each time before I get the error message and I have to abort.
Appreciate any assistance.

Is ALL PHOTOS included in your LR folder hierarchy? If it is not, then you need to right-click (or whatever the Mac equivalent is) on one of the folders in your LR hierarchy, and choose Include Parent Folder. Once you've done that, and copied everything over, you can just Locate Missing Folder on that one top folder and it'll find everything underneath it. If you don't have the parent folder in LR before you copy, you'd have to do Locate Missing Folder on each of the top-level folders.
Once you've copied your photos over, you can rename your local copy of ALL PHOTOS to make sure you're not accidentally finding it, then do the Locate Missing Folder to make sure it works on the Remote Location.
Once you're satisfied your catalog is seeing all the remote photos, and when you're ready, copy your catalog and your previews and backup folders over, and rename the local copy of the Lightroom so you won't accidentally open that copy of the catalog, again. I would copy things, instead of moving them, in case something happens you can start over.
If you are going to immediately upgrade your mac, then copy all three folder, other than the iChat ones, from Pictures to your remote drive and open the remote catalog and find missing folders all in one shot. I suggest doing only the photos, first, in case you want to continue working on the photos, the local copy of the catalog will be faster, but if you're ready to upgrade then just do all the copies at once. The ALL PHOTOS and the previews will be the time-consuming copies, the catalog, itself, won't take very long.

Lightroom was unable to prepare the selected file at ... for editing. It will not be opened

Hello,
I am trying to open an image into Photoshop from Lightroom, however recently i am getting this error message. can anyone help?
Thank you so much in advance.

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 does 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
See here for how to go about Replacing the Preference File: http://lightroomers.com/replacing-the-lightroom-preference-file/745/

Try to understand but could not understand because i'am new to wcf services. Please help me to find the error details.
Thanks in advance

Hi Mohan,
I didn't use Fiddler before, I just download and use it but how to see the request message from this software?
I have logged the request to event log before send to web service and copy this request from event log to testing with soapUI, so I don't think have between the actual messages being sent to your client via orchestration and soapui. In the log Response shape
I see the fault response in event log.
You can see
this link to know how to use fiddler. As I suggested above the error you need to check is at the server side who is hosting the service( your party ) because you are getting fault response properly from them. The webservice you are calling seems to look
like WCF service too. Your life would have been so easier if you could ask them to have firewall open from your dev box to their dev server so that you can use use "Add Service Reference" wizard, that even they have .NET wcf service too.
Did you by any chance manage to talk to them what they are getting or if they can increase the exception details in the fault message for you?
If this answers your question please mark it as Answer and if this post is helpful, please vote as helpful. Thanks !

Microsoft Intune was unable to set the desired mobile device policy for one or more users due to the following error: A2CE0100

Hi!
We have fatal or critical error message on Microsoft Intune Portal but all agents are working just fine. Before opening support ticket we would like to hear comments from the experts on this forum. We would also like to fix this error before starting to
manage mobile devices with Intune.
Error message on Intune Portal:
"Microsoft Intune was unable to set the desired mobile device policy for one or more users due to the following error: A2CE0100"

Error while creating task: The server was unable to save the form at this time. Please try again. (SharePoint 2013)

I get the following error while saving a task inside task list:
"The server was unable to save the form at this time. Please try again."
I tried restarting "search service host controller".
The server has 8 GB RAM and according to task manager, 6.67 GB is being used.
I logged into the site with user which is the owner of the site. I tried creating tasks from client as well as the SharePoint server itself. Same error is shown in both the cases.
How do I find information on the exact problem that is causing the error? What are possible solutions?

Hi robikshrestha,
This error message often shows when there is low memory that can be used, the workaround restart the “SharePoint Search Hosting Controller” service is to release some memory, and make it work. Whether restart the service release memory
in your situation?
Would you please check whether this issue happens all the time in task list, or happens sometimes when the memory is lower to use. If it doesn’t have a large impact, you can restart the server, check the result. have a look at the event
log and ULS log, see whether there is related information.
If it happens all the time, would you please use other browsers, whether the results are same? This may be caused by some add-ons in IE, like Free Download Manager I have seen.
Thanks,
Qiao Wei

"Error: Final Cut Pro was unable to read the movie file just captured"

Hello everyone!
We had a computer crash while we were working on Final Cut Pro and backing up some media to a hard drive.
Since then, whenever we "capture' video footage and hit the escape key to stop capturing - we get -
"Error: Final Cut Pro was unable to read the movie file just captured"
We reinstalled the Final Cut Pro software all over again thinking that maybe the software got corrupted and we also rectified any disk permissions for the hard drives.
Any ideas?
Thanks

You eventually want to figure out how that happened and make sure you fix it.

You reformatted the external drive, yes? You might not have used the correct initialization setting. Should be Macintosh HFS, journalling is optional. Or you have a drive formatted for Winderz.
Aside from incorrect drive formatting, we have seen this error if the capture is incomplete or improperly terminated.
It's not an FCP issue, it's hardware.

An unexpected error occured. PDFMaker was unable to produce the adobe PDF

"An unexpected error occured. PDFMaker was unable to produce the adobe PDF." When trying to print PDF from Publisher (MS Office 2010) version 14.0.6129.5000 32bit. I am able to print to PDF Printer. I am using Adobe Acrobat 10.1.5.
Windows 7 64bit.

All I know to suggest off hand is to update to the latest Acrobat (10.1.7). You might also check your job settings and check to see if a log file was created that might give you some idea of what failed.

Hi,
I have SP 2013 intranet sites.
I am trying to edit the list item in site and getting the error "The server was unable to save the form at this time. Please try again."
I read many article on this forum. to chck web.config file, to restart

Still i am getting this. what could be the reason now.
Please provide the resolution. I am trying to resolve this from last two days.
Thanks,
Rakesh

Normally, there's something wrong with the form responsible for editing list items. Is it customized? If not, you could use the free SharePoint Designer tool to delete the current form, create a new one (wait some time before caching issues are solved)
and you should be good to go. If it is customized, contact the team responsible for managing it.

Can't create new pdfs from powerpoint; either form within Adobe or within powerpoint. I could do this yesterday and today it won't work for some reason. The error says "an unexpected error occurred. PDFMaker was unable to produce the Adobe PDF. How do I fix this?

Is there a log file in the document folder indicating what the problem was. There are a number of reasons that PDF creation may fail. You can try to print to the Adobe PDF printer to see if there is any indication in that process. The processing is different, but the same problems may show up with both processes.

Office Web Apps - Office Web Apps was unable to find the specified certificate

Hello,
Let me start by saying I did not see a forum listed for Office Web Apps and figured the SharePoint forum would be the second best place to post this. With that said, here's my issue...
I installed OWA 2013 on a Windows Server 2012 (not R2) VM and installed all the prereqs as described here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219455(v=office.15).aspx Since this is a test environment, I'm planning on using a self-signed
cert which appears to be supported based on info found here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/2e147f11-6f47-46bc-90bf-b2f179958d11(v=office.15)#certificate.
I created the cert using the following command:
New-SelfSignedCertificate -DnsName owa.test.local -CertStoreLocation cert:\LocalMachine\My
I then edited the cert's properties in the Cert Manager MMC snap-in and added a friendly name of "2014_OWA_Cert". I then proceeded to try and create the OWA farm by running:
New-OfficeWebAppsFarm -InternalUrl "https://owa.test.local" -CertificateName "2014_OWA_Cert" -EditingEnabled
This produces the following error:
New-OfficeWebAppsFarm : Office Web Apps was unable to find the specified certificate.
At line:1 char:1

+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

What gives?

Hi Waqas
Thanks for your help with this. I had a look at both posts, the URL works fine from the WAC server and I am not using a System account to test docs.
Also, this is a production site that is accessible over the Internet, so we are using https therefore the WOPIZone is external-https.
Issue #3 in the above blog link does not reflect the same error I see on my servers.
I also had a look at the information in this link: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff431687.aspx#oauth
Problem: You receive a "Sorry, there was a problem and we can't open this document" error when you try to view an Office document in Office Web Apps.
If you added domains to the Allow List by using the
New-OfficeWebAppsHost cmdlet, make sure you’re accessing Office Web Apps from a host domain that’s in the Allow List. To view the host domains in the Allow List, on the Office Web Apps Server open the Windows PowerShell prompt as an administrator and run
the Get-OfficeWebAppsHost cmdlet. To add a domain to the Allow List, use the
New-OfficeWebAppsHost cmdlet.
I have not added any domains to the Allow list so this did not help either. Should I add the domain?
Any further help with this is much appreciated.
Thanks again.
