LR6 on Mac won't start unless I have it create a new catalog

On my MacBook Pro, I can get LR6 to start if I beforehand remove the catalog it previously opened. However, if I quit LR6 afterwards, it will always go straight into the crash reporting dialog. Lightroom 5 works without any issues..
Yes I did try signing out of & back in to the creative cloud...

You should take to a Aplle store genius bar they will diagnose for free and give you a quote for repair.

TS1411 My Mac won't start

My Mac won't start. I have tried all trouble shooting things like unplug and plug into a different power point. If I leave finger on start button, can sometimes get internal fan to attempt to start then stops. Please help. My computer is less than two years old.

Then, it's time for a trip to an Apple repair station.

Mac won't start (Kernel Panics)

Hello,
My mac won't start up. It turns on, gets as far as the spinning circle and apple logo then a dark screen comes down with a Kernel Panic message. This occurred roughly three months ago and I ended up taking the mac into the regent street store where it was fixed under apple care warranty. My care has now run out, and the 90 day repair warranty has expired but the problem is back so obviously hasn't been fixed properly. Is there anything that can be done about this?
Every time I boot up the computer the message appears, I have tried rebooting with the safe option as well as re installing OSX from the original disks. The install completes successfully but upon restart it pops up with the original kernel panic message.
Luckily I have everything backed up so am prepared to try anything to get it running.
Thanks.

Let us know, but since you obviously have another machine, have you tried Target Disk Mode and then Disk Utility?
use TDM to access Disk Utility.
1. Click the First Aid tab.
2. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
3. Select your Mac OS X volume.
4. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk.
Please post back,

Every other day, my mac won't start up

every other day, my mac won't start up. my keyboard would light up and i hear the system start but nothing is appearing in the screen. i would have to press the start button until the screen actually shows up.. why does it do that?

Have you just tried repairing with Disk Utility?
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.

Your Mac won't start up in Mac OS X (Mac OS X 10.3.9 or earlier)

I just got off the phone with an AppleCare agent. My iBook OS 10.4 wouldn't start - it just went to a blue screen. I'm happy to say that the agent got everthing working again and said that she would email me an article that would help if it ever happens again. She emailed me "Your Mac won't start up in Mac OS X (Mac OS X 10.3.9 or earlier)" I have 10.4, is this article any use for me or was I emailed the wrong articel. Is there an article "Your Mac won't start up in Mac OS X (Mac OS X 10.4 or later)"????

Thank you for yoiur response. I'll click on that link and add my input..
Don't be put off by the title. The document's just as
valid for Tiger, especially if those are the same
steps that fixed your problem. The article was
revised Feb 2006 and someone forgot to update it to
mention Tiger. Go to
<http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106464
, click on the It's good, but... link and
tell them it should be updated to include a reference
to Tiger.

Fascinate won't start unless plugged in

My Samsung Fascinate won't start unless plugged in. Even with a full battery. It shows a dead battery and won't start.

How old is the phone/battery? I would order a new, OEM battery from an online retailer (usually inexpensive, fast delivery) like cellularaccessories.com or batteries4less.com and see if that fixes the issue. Batteries do wear out....

Phone won't start unless plugged in. No phone or internet service

On my 4S the phone won't start unless plugged in. Once plugged in it shows 100% charged. If I unplug it it will go dark and no button works.
Once plugged in and the phone is on it keeps searching. I receive no phone or internet service. After awhile it will dim and then go dark. Have to reset to get it back on. Each time, it goes to 4PM and 12/31. Can go through apps, but no sound (music for example).
Anyone have these types of problems before.

Sounds like its broken. Take it to an Apple store for replacement, as its still in warranty. Make an appointment first. http://www.apple.com/retail

G4 won't start unless from a restart or pmu reset

my G4 won't start unless from a restart or, if the computer has been shut down, I have to reset the pmu - with inside button or by removing battery.
Can anyone think of why this happens? What goes on with a shut down that doesn't with a restart? With the problem, nothing happens after the chime and I must hard shut-down, unplug and reset pmu, then it's fine.
Thanks for any thoughts or suggestions.
Henry

well, I can't find anything wrong with it. maybe my logic board is shot. i guess i'll take it in to tek serve or an apple store and see if they can figure it out.
thanks for the suggestions, tom.

My Mac won't start up and Im using DiscWarrior. When I restart the computer with "c" down, the screen goes black. Is this ok? Do I just wait it out?

If it still does not work, Restart using your 10.5 Install DVD as the boot volume holding down C from chime sound to apple logo appearance, then after selecting your language from the menu bar go to Utilities > Disk Utilities, and run Repair Disk on your Mac's HDD. Afterwards, exit DU, exit Install, restart normally.

I Mac won't start -- we get apple logo with spinning wheel, question mark that disappears and then a blank blue screen

My daughter's old I Mac won't start. It is not backed up. We want to get some things off of it if we can.
When we turn it on, we get the Apple logo with spinning wheel for awhile, then a question mark briefly and then a sky blue blank screen. Is there any hope of getting this to work? This computer is out of warranty. Does it seem that if we reinstall the Operating System we might find old data?

First try restarting with the original install disc an run Disk Utility to repair the drive. If you have to re install the OS make sure you select archive and install or else everything will be lost.

Acrobat Pro for Mac won't start, even after restarting the machine. Any suggestions?

Acrobat Pro for Mac won't start, even after restarting the machine. Any suggestions?

Hi Patrick,
Can you please mention the version of Adobe Acrobat that you are using and on what OS version. Also mention whether this problem has started recently and was running fine earlier or is it a fresh install and has never worked for you.
Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the product after you started facing this issue.
