LR 1.3.1 suddenly will not open

For unknown reasons, LR 1.3.1 will not open under Win Vista. The error screen "Microsoft Visual C ++ Runtime Error" appears with the dialogue "This operation has requested the Runtime to it in an unusual way".
Using the Restore command produced no success. I than uninstalled and reinstalled Lightroom to no avail.

There are a couple of things you could try (one at a time):
     --Move or rename LR's Preferences file. If that doesn't work, put it back.
     --Move or rename the print presets folder. Ditto.
Instructions for finding both are on this website.

  • I have been working on a wedding slideshow for days and have over 3,000 pictures in albums on iPhoto.  It suddenly will not open without upgrading to Aperture and I can't find any of my photos!!!!

    I have been working on a wedding slideshow for days and have over 3,000 pictures in albums on iPhoto.  It suddenly will not open without upgrading to Aperture and I can't find any of my photos!!!!  I need these photos, to complete the video, not to mention I don't want to lose them. I have had trouble ever since upgrading  to Maverick.

    Try the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window.
    2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

  • PSE 9 suddenly will not open pse files - due to "program error"

    The program was working fine yesterday and now suddenly will not open pse files created yesterday or today. The error message reads "could not complete action due to program error." Am I going to need to deactivate and reinstall - and if so, how do I do that? Will I lose all brushes loaded into presets, all files currently unable to be opened if I do that?

    I have the same or at least similar issue - When try
    ing to open a Photoshop Elements 9 slideshow I get this message
    "This application has requested the Runtime
    to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact
    this application's support team for further assistance" I first saw this problem today - can't think of why now.  I've had the program since last Christmas.
    I sure would like a solution as I'm in the midst of a project with it.

  • My iPhoto v9.4.3 suddenly will not open.

    My iPhoto v9.4.3 suddenly will not open. A window pops up saying "To open your library with this version of iPhoto, it first needs to be prepared." I downloaded the upgrade that the link directed me to and installed it, but it made no difference. What do I do?

    Have you tried to open a very old iPhoto library from iPhoto 6 or earlier and downloaded
    iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.0.?  Then it does not suffice to install the upgrader, you need to run it and to upgrade the library.
    Or do you get this error message for your current iPhoto library?

  • Adobe acrobat x pro suddenly will not open in windows 8

    Adobe Acrobat X Pro has been working fine. It suddenly stopped opening at all. It will not open any pdf documents, and the program itself will not open

    Hi 4blake4,
    I am sorry that you are experiencing this issue.
    Is there any error message or any error code once you launch the application?
    If you are using CS6 Suite please follow these steps :-
    Launch another CS6 application, such as Photoshop.
    Choose Help > Deactivate.
    Follow the onscreen prompts to deactivate.
    Close the application.
    Launch the same CS6 Suite product again.
    Sign in with your Adobe ID associated with CS6 suite to re-activate.
    Launch Acrobat X

  • Photoshop CS6 suddenly will not open images or create new ones

    I began using illustrator and exported an image in several formats and Photoshop won't open any of them, jpg, png, tiff  Not only that now Photoshop won't open any documents period and will not create a new document either. Any ideas?

    There is a script running which Noscript lets me forbid, called akamaihd.net. It runs a script which is the same as in html when you highlight a word then attach a url to it.
    I don't know why I am seeing it but not others. FF and Chrome seem susceptible to it. It's not malware as usually thought of because no virus/malware program finds it here.
    Unfortunately, I have to forbid this script for every site I visit.
    In the other thread where your browser displayed an 'i.trkjmp.com' link which isn't really in the web page, I gave you a Google link for info about the problem. You said that it must be something else. Well, for months now, Chrome and Firefox users have been troubled by extensions which cause the 'i.trkjmp.com' problem. You might want to revisit the link I gave you.

  • IMove all of a sudden will not open on Mac Pro

    iMovie will not run on my MacPro. It has in the past. The window I get says that it requires a graphics card that is compatible with Quartz Extreme. One or more of your graphics cards does not support Quartz Extreme. What? It runs fine on my Mac Book Pro and even my old imac. Any ideas? I am stumped. I have not changed my graphics cards in my MacPro so why won't it run? Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Tom

    Having the same problem with it either not opening, freezing on opening, or opening and then half of the clips are missing, won't display, projects are missing, etc. Tried all of the fixes listed here to no avail. I've been searching all over the iMovie 08 forum and this problem is posted in several different threads. It appears to be a growing problem for users of 10.5.3. One post had you throw out a preference file, I tried that too but nothing in any of these posts is working. Any other ideas?

  • Firefox suddenly will not open

    I have an Acer laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. Firefox will no longer start when it used to work perfectly on this system. None of its files are listed as still running in Task Manager. I read a suggestion to go into firefox.exe –ProfileManager to create a new profile, but all I get is a box with a black bar and a red X to close it out. I've used system restore a couple of times, and went back to before the last 2 windows updates. That helped a little with some other problems, but Firefox still won't open. I also used PowerSuite's Registry booster, but still no help getting Firefox to open.
    Any help is appreciated. If I need to change a registry key, please provide exact detailed instructions. Thanks in advance.

    This crash is due to malware. Please see the below to fix this.

  • Elements 10 Suddenly will not open. Should I uninstall/deactivate and re-install or will I never be able to use it again? On windows 7 using parallels on Macbook Pro and never had this problem ever.

    I ran trouble shooting and conflicts. It now keeps wanting me to switch to a different windows OS rather than 7 which is what I am running and how it worked previously. The only thing I have done in the last several days that may have freaked it out is downloading flash because my flash kept crashing in google chrome (i did days of trouble shooting before doing this. Thanks to Adobe I've used up about 4 days of non productive trouble shooting and now this!). It simply doesn't open anymore - not even an error message.
    Just wanted to confirm that the next step should be deinstall/deactivate and then try to reinstall. But worried Adobe has rigged it so that only works if reinstalling on a different computer. Should I anticipate any problems in un & re install?

    eventually prompts to select which version to use.
    That person is misreading the prompt. It merely tells you that if you DO want to uninstall old versions, you should stop the install now and go do that first because the installer won't do it (and you really don't have to--you can uninstall later if you decide you no longer need the old version). It never says you MUST pick a version, although many people misread it to mean that.

  • HT1349 iPhoto v. 9.2.3 suddenly will not open, clicked on icon =ng, tried to open in finder=ng, ?? Help !!...rebooted several times with no luck...any help

    Can anyone tell me what the problem may be whereby I cannot open iphoto today neither by clicking the icon in the dock nor by kopening through finder ?? I tried restarting without luck, then tried to shut down and start without luck ?? Would appreciate any help out there ...
    (all other apps seem to be opening as usual)

    What version of iPhoto do you actually have?
    iPhoto Menu -> About iPhoto
    If you have iPhoto 08 then the v9.1.5 update will have done nothing. Ditto with iPhoto v8.0.2
    You have the most up-to-date version of iPhoto 08 there is.
    I cannot open any events in iphoto when I double click on them. I can see the other pictures in each event but that's all.
    Check the double click speed on your Mouse.
    What happens when you try to open an Event?
    Regards

  • Final Cut Pro suddenly will not open

    Hello Everyone,
    I have done a search and I found a couple of threads realating to my issue, but none with solutions. I have posted my experiences there, but would like to start a new thread for my specific issue.
    I run FCP 5.1.4 on a G4 Powerbook. I use an external Lacie little bigDisk as my scratch disk. It's 250GB/FW800 and there is over 100GB free space.
    I have been using it all week working on a project and there have been no problems at all.
    Last night while closing the app down I noticed that the FCP icon was still registering as open in the apps bar. I had to force quit to close it.
    When I tried to open up FCP tonight, I was presented with a window that claimed my scratch disk had gone offline. I checked everything and all should have been well.
    I backed all my data up, and then reset the scratch disk. I hit continue, but that was as far as it went. It just disappeared. I cannot get it to open. The load screen appears and looks like it's loading up, but then it disappears just as quickly. If I disconect my external drive, I get the same message again stating that the scratch disk has gone offline, but even if I set it to my primary drive, it still won't open.
    The only thing I've done lately was to delete some back up files from my idisk. They don't relate to my current project. I can't see how that could affect it, but as it was done around the same time I thought I should mention it.
    I checked my Primary disk and external disk using Disk Utility and it reported minor problems. I check quite regularly and these are new. Using an external drive as the start up disk I repaired them and they now show as fine.
    I haven't yet deleted the preferences.
    Thanks for any help,
    Philip

    I don't know exactly what causes preference files to become corrupt, but the symptoms that you described in great detail in your original post helped me properly understand that the problem you were experiencing was most likely a preference problem. The symptoms you described are very similar to what happens to our edit suites when preference files go bad.
    I'm glad you found a solution. Also, thank you for the detail you put into your original question, that is somewhat rare, but is essential to proper troubleshooting. Let us know if there's anything else we can help you with.
    Take care.

  • Photoshop CS6 Retail Subscription suddenly will not open any image files

    I signed up for a trial subscription and I have 18 days left.
    I was using this as recently as yesterday and it was fine.
    Even the 'windows' menu shows no open windows BUT the recent places menu shows the files I tried to open.
    What could the problem be?

    Hi there! Because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Photoshop Elements forum, where you'll get more specialized help.
    To help others help you, please read through this article and provide any additional relevant details.

  • My Preview will not open JPG files, only PDF.  I have downloaded nothing or installed nothing as I am a Luddite.  Any idea why all of a sudden, Preview would just stop opening JPG files?

    My Preview, suddenly, will not open JPG files.  It will open a file if it is saved as a PDF, but not JPG.  I have downloaded nothing nor installed apps as I am a Luddite.  Does anyone know the deal?  Thank you.

    So ummm.....which app is opening up your PDF files?
    If you want Preview to open your PDF files, do the following:  Highlight your file>File>Get Info> 
    In the Get Info window, scroll down to "Open with:"
    Select the Preview app to open the file.
    Click the "Change All..." button if you want to "Use this application to open all documents like this.”

  • Why my Photoshop 7 will not open

    Can anyone tell me why my photoshop 7 all of a sudden will not open? I uninstalled it...restarted my computer...reinstalled 6 & 7(update) and nothing. It did not put a short cut on my desktop either. I tryed to open it from the start menu..still nothing

    Curt
    I haven't changed anything. I tried what you suggested starting Photoshop ctrl..alt..shift..nothing..??? When I click on Photoshop 7 in the start list...(the icon never came up on the desktop after I reinstalled it) the little work circle comes up for a brief second and then disappears. I even have a short cut... ctrl...alt..left..nothing...I pined it to the taskbar...still nothing. Should I try uninstalling it again.
