Please help! EVERY TIME I open Lightroom, my purchased presets are gone!
This is getting really annoying! I back-up my catalogs, but even then, once I reopen Lightroom my purchased presets are gone. If I open my previous catalogs, the presets are not there, so all the photos I edited using those presets are returned back to their original forms. I always have to redownload all my presets, and it's bugging me so much since I'm on time constraints! What is wrong with my Lightroom?!
Also, every time I open my Lightroom program, the "Purchase Lightroom: I have a serial number/Trial version" pop-up shows. I always have to reenter my Lightroom serial number. >:( Am I doing something wrong?? Thank you.
Welcome to AD!
It's probably some Sony bloatware on your Vaio. Vaio owners world-wide have been battling this problem since 2008. It's some bad Sony software that deliberately attacks itunes. Apparently a while back, you launched the Sony media center that came pre-installed on your machine, and ever since, iTunes hasn't been able to properly save its library database.
Upgrade the Vaio Media software, as mentioned here:

And here is the thread from 2008 where it was discovered the Sony bloatware was causing it:

Please help. After a recent iOS7 update my iMessages are gone and I can't get it back, nor can I log into my Apple ID. MY PASSWORD is not expired. iPhone 4.

PLEASE HELP PLEASE PLEASE
Did you try the things listed here? Error 3194, Error 17, or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build" - Apple Support Is your device jailbroken? Have you ever used the computer to jailbreak a device? Are you trying to load an iOS other than the current one? What version of iPhone are you using? Is this occurring when attempting to update via iTunes and the computer?
-
Thought the computer had a problem, had it checked, spent 250usd on some spare part, which probally didn't need to have been changed. I'm very disappointed with Lightroom.
I dunno the extent to which your computer was "checked" (it needs more than ventilator inspection...).
At a minimum, run a thorough:
* disk check
* ram check
Have you ever had Lightroom running well on this (or any other) machine?
PS - There are a lot of people in this forum who are willing to help, but you gotta hold up your end of the deal:
* Try things, *and* report results (screen-shots or video can be worth thousands of words).
* Answer all questions fully (e.g. "into a freshly created catalog?")
Warning: I may bow out at any time and let somebody else take a crack, or not... so, hope you don't think it rude - you have been "notified"...
Also - have you tried Adobe Technical Support? - don't expect the Lr engineers on the other end of the line, but they have a wealth of resources to draw from, and they are well-trained to get installation and basic functionality working...
Good luck,

Every time I open my iTunes - my library is gone. Why does this keep happening?
Hey guys,
The folder with all my music in it is located on my desktop. I've had it like this for years now with never a problem.
Up until the most recent update, my library is gone everytime I open my iTunes.
Thankfully I saved my playlists to text documents, but it is becoming an enormous bother now to keep re-adding them.
I've searched the forums to no avail - anyone have any advice for me?
Much Appreciated,
AndrewJust want to share my fix for this...... Don't know that computer you are dealing with but if sony, here it is
WOW! Thanks to all who directed me to Sony for this issue. I have downloaded the update http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2715 (which by the way would not run for the first few times stating it was an update for Vista even though I chose the Windows 7 OS and the page showed was for 7.) I have rebooted about 4 times so far and everything is still in iTunes. Oh thank you all.... BTW I had my computer in with the Sony Backstage guys for a tune up a few months ago and I explained this issue to them. They had no idea and recommended I go over to the Apple store in the Mall. I would think they should be versed on various software related issues which can create trouble for users of their products just as they are versed in the nuts and bolts of how to save this, and move that, and make backup disks, and read my email. : ) Keeping my fingers crossed.
All this technology conflict.... Can't we all just get along??? -
Lightroom5 asks for serial number every time I open.

- Right-click on Lightroom 5.0 folder and select Get Info
- In Get Info window, expand Sharing and Permissions secition, click on Lock icon and give all accounts listed read and write
- click on small gear icon and select 'Apply enclosed items'
- Then close the Get Info window and launch Lightroom 5, enter the serial number and close and re-launch the product -

Hello there, Staver13.
The following Knowledge Base article provides some assistance in troubleshooting your issue:
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1368
Particularly:
Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

Can anyone help me. I have iPhoto 9.2 and Mac OS X 10.7.2.
Every time I open iPhoto 9.2 and try to go to photo stream iPhoto quits unexpectedly. When I reopen I get "iPhoto has detected inconsistencies in your library. Please click Repair to avoid any potential problems."
I have read plenty of the posts on the subject and it seems that deleting the "3ivx" fixed the problem. I looked at the detaied reports and see where it says "
Library/Application Support/3ivx" etc..
On my report it says "/Library/Application Support/iLifeMediaBrowser/*/iLMBiPhoto8Plugin". Does this help with an answer?I am also having this crashing problem. I am running lion on a 2010 mac mini. My iPhoto library is kept on an external drive. I just upgraded to iPhoto 11 and everytime I try to enable photo stream the app crashes. I have tried all the above suggestions, including re-installing iphoto from the Mac App store. Below are the first 50 lines of the error message. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Please help me. My YouTube app will not work. Every time I open it says 'cannot connect to youtube'. I have searched for help and tried resetting my settings and rebooting my ipad2 but nothing has solved the issue.
Yes, I am connected to the Internet through my wifi. Everything is working fine with the e eption of youtube. I have reset all Internet settings and have tried synching to iTunes followed by rebooting. This is all the advice I have found although none of it has been helpful.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? -

Every time I open iPhoto a window opens telling me that there are 3 photos that have not been imported. This happens twice. When I answer yes then nothing happens and if I answer no then a recovered folder is opened with no photos in it. These recoverable folders keep opening with no photos in them. I cannot find which photos have not been imported. Can anyone assist please?
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
Start iPhoto. Does that help?
If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder. -
IPhoto 11 crashes every time it opens. Please help
Every time I open iPhoto I get a warning prompting me to repair my library. When the repair is complete iPhoto crashes. I cannot use it at all. Please Help.
Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

I keep receiving this error every time I open LR, "Lightroom encountered and error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit" and the app won't open. It said LR would try and fix this error next time I opened it but the error remains. I tried uninstalled and installing the app and the error remains. I have windows 8. Can anyone please help???
Use Windows Explorer to open the folder containing your catalog. The normal location is Pictures\Lightroom. Locate a folder with the extension .lrdata and delete that folder. Then you should be able to start Lightroom again, and Lightroom will begin building and new previews folder. Do not delete anything else.
