Problem cropping in Lightroom

In a folder full of tiff or photoshop files, I have the odd file or two for which I just can't turn off a seemingly randomly assigned crop setting. Worse, it's a setting I never consciously made in the first place. If I unlock or change Aspect, I can move the crop corners or sides temporarily, but once I let go of the mouse, they snap back to the original center position and Aspect locks again.
The same files in viewed Bridge look as they should.
I'm using Windows 64 Vista with the equivalent Lightroom version, just updated.
I'm not one of those to shout, "Bug" at every problem, but I really can't figure out what to do about this situation.
Any advice appreciated. Thanks, MB

I think what happened is tht when you use syncronize the crop rate is fixed and you cannot modify it. It's a glitch of LR 2.

Custom Cropping in Lightroom

I want to crop my images to 840 px by 473 px but when I enter those numbers for a custom crop in Lightroom it defaults to 16x9. How can I change this?
I've tried ratios close to 840x473 and multiples of that combination but nothing allows me to get that exact ratio. I need this ratio for formatting on my website. Any help would be appreciated.

In Lightroom, you don't crop to pixel dimensions, you crop to aspect ratio and then EXPORT to pixel dimensions as near as possible at that aspect. If you want to crop to pixel dimensions you will have to use another program, do a lot of draging the crop corners around, or use Rob Cole's XMP CROP plugin.
840X473 is less than one pixel width of aspect ratio off from 16X9 so I can't see why it would cause a problem. Lightroom tries to HELP by rounding the aspect to one in its list and this is really only a display bug/glitch. It actually rounds when the numbers are even further off than this. I agree that if you input 840X473 that Lightroom should just leave the aspect alone. This behavior causes problems/bugs to show up in other places with the crop tool. See posts #30 and above in this link.

Troubleshoot installation problems in Photoshop Lightroom on Windows Vista

This document can help you to resolve system errors that occur while you use Adobe Photoshop Lightroom on Windows Vista. System errors can manifest in many different ways, including (but not limited to) the following:
A blank or flickering dialog box
A frozen cursor or screen
A blue screen
An unexpected restart
An error message such as:
"Setup is unable to load the installation script file."
"Unable to create a directory under C:\Windows\System. Please check write-access to the directory."
"Uninstalling: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer, or on a network. Check to make sure that the disk is properly inserted, or that you are connected to the Internet or your network, and then try again. If it still cannot be located, the information might have been moved to a different location."
Note: If you attempt to install Photoshop Lightroom to a drive that doesn't have the minimum required space available, the installation will fail. You must then completely reinstall to another location that has sufficient free space.
Many different factors can cause system errors, including conflicts among device drivers, applications, operating system settings, hardware, and corrupt elements in specific files. Although a system error may occur only when you work with Photoshop Lightroom, Photoshop Lightroom may not necessarily be the cause; it may be the only application that uses enough memory or processor cycles to expose the problem.
To benefit most from this document, perform the tasks in order. Keep track of the tasks that you perform and the results of each, including errors and other problems. Adobe Technical Support can use this information to better assist you if you need to call.
You must be logged on as an administrator to perform some of the procedures in this document.
Important: Some of the procedures in this document may initiate a User Access Control dialog that asks for your permission to continue. Read the details in the dialog to determine if you want to continue. If you choose to cancel the dialog, then you will not be able to continue with that troubleshooting step.
The steps in this document that refer to the Control Panel are in reference to the Classic view. For information on switching the Control Panel to the Classic view and many other common OS procedures, see Common Microsoft Windows Vista procedures (TechNote kb401275)
Some of these procedures require you to locate hidden files and hidden folders. Some procedures require you to locate files by their full file names, which include extensions (for example, example_filename.ini). By default, Windows Explorer doesn't show hidden files, hidden folders, and file name extensions that it recognizes.
To show hidden files, hidden folders, and all file name extensions in Windows Explorer:
In Windows Explorer, choose Organize > Folder And Search Options.
Click the View tab in the Folder Options dialog box.
In Advanced Settings, select Show Hidden Files And Folders.
Deselect Hide Extensions For Known File Types.
Click OK.
Note: The procedures in this document are based on the default interface of Windows Vista. If the interface is customized, some procedures may vary. For example, a commonly encountered difference is the navigation to Control Panel from the Start menu: You may navigate Start > Settings > Control Panel instead of Start > Control Panel. Additionally, the procedures in this document assume you are using the Classic View of the Control Panel: To view the Control Panel in the Classic View, click Switch To Classic View on the Control Panel navigation bar on the left side of the window.
Beginning troubleshooting
The tasks in this section can help you resolve the most common system errors. Before performing any of these tasks, back up all personal files (for example, Photoshop Lightroom files you created). Always restart the computer after a system error occurs to refresh system memory. Continuing to work without restarting the computer may compound the problem.
1.Make sure that the system meets the minimum requirements for PhotoshopLightroom.
Photoshop Lightroom may not run correctly on a system that doesn't meet the following requirements:
Intel Pentium 4 or equivalent processor
Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7
768 MB of RAM (1 GB recommended)
1 GB of available hard-disk space
CD-ROM drive
In addition to these requirements, a video card that supports 24-bit (16 million) or more colors, and a resolution of 1024 x 768 or higher, is recommended.
* Photoshop Lightroom 1.0 will install and run on Windows Vista but Adobe cannot guarantee the quality of the software experience until Adobe fully certifies Photoshop Lightroom for use on Windows Vista.
To check basic system information, such as processor speed and how much RAM is installed, choose Start > Control Panel > System.
2. Delete previously installed application files, especially if you had the public beta version of Photoshop Lightroom installed.
To delete files from a previous Adobe Photoshop Lightroom installation attempt:
Choose Start > Control Panels > Add or Remove Programs.
Select Adobe Photoshop Lightroom and choose to remove it.
Close the Add Or Remove Programs window and the Control Panel.
Open Windows Explorer.
If the Lightroom.exe file is still in the Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom folder, delete it.
If the Lightroom Preferences.agprefs file is still in the Documents and Settings/[username]/Application Data/Adobe/Lightroom/Preferences folder, delete it.
Empty the Recycle Bin.
Try to reinstall. If you cannot, continue with the next two sections in this step:
Move all the folders under the Users/[username]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Lightroom folder into a new folder on the desktop; name the folder Lightroom Presets. These are the presets that were installed with the application and that you created.
Move all the folders under the Users/[username]/Pictures/Lightroom/Lightroom Previews.lrdata folder into a new folder on the desktop; name the folder Lightroom Previews. If you have a large number of images, you can move this folder back to its original location before you open Photoshop Lightroom, once it's installed. Or you can delete this folders to re-create it when Photoshop Lightroom opens. If there are further problems with Photoshop Lightroom after it's installed, it might be due to corruption in the previews, in which case you need to delete this folder and re-create it.
Try to reinstall.Important: Do not delete the Lightroom Database.lrdb file!
If there are further problems with Photoshop Lightroom after it's installed, these issues may be due to corruption in the preset files you created, in which case you need to remove them and re-create them, or test each preset individually.
Note: If you can reinstall, and if this is not the first time you opened Photoshop Lightroom, then Photoshop Lightroom will look for a library database file. If it does not find a library in the expected location, it will prompt you to create a new library, locate the library, or exit. Exit will close the dialog box, and Photoshop Lightroom will not open. Although you can tell Photoshop Lightroom to locate your library, it's best to put it back in the default location and then open the application.
If you can reinstall, close Photoshop Lightroom and then copy any presets you created from the Lightroom presets on the desktop back into the Users/[username]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Lightroom folder.
If you cannot reinstall, then move the Lightroom Database.lrdb file from the Users/[username]/Pictures/Lightroom folder into a new folder called Lightroom Database File and save this file on the desktop. This is your database, if you previously had Photoshop Lightroom installed.
Reinstall Photoshop Lightroom. If you cannot reinstall, continue with the next task in this document.
3. Log in as Administrator before installingPhotoshopLightroom.
In Windows Vista, you must be logged in with local (that is, machine) Administrator rights to install Photoshop Lightroom. If you don't have administrator rights, contact your system administrator for assistance.
4. Check the CD and CD-ROM drive.
Dust or dirt on a CD can interfere with an installation and prevent the CD-ROM drive from recognizing the CD. Examine the Photoshop Lightroom CD for dirt, dust, or fingerprints. Gently wipe the bottom of the CD from the center outward with a soft, lint-free cloth.
Verify that the CD-ROM drive can read other CDs. If it can't, examine the CD caddy or loading tray for dirt, and clean it with a lint-free cloth. If it still can't read other CDs, contact the CD-ROM drive manufacturer or the computer manufacturer.
5. Install current Windows service packs and other updates.
Updates to the Windows operating system improve its performance and compatibility with applications. You can obtain Windows service packs and other updates from the Microsoft website at www.windowsupdate.com. For assistance installing service packs and other updates, contact Microsoft technical support.
Important: Before you install a system update, check the system requirements for Photoshop Lightroom (and any third-party software or hardware you may use with Photoshop Lightroom ) to ensure compatibility. If the update isn't listed, then contact Adobe or the manufacturer of your third-party software or hardware.
6. InstallPhotoshopLightroomfrom the desktop and use the default installation folder.
Some system components such as device drivers and virus protection utilities can conflict with the Photoshop Lightroom installer and result in an incomplete or failed installation, or they can cause problems when you install to a folder or when you use a path to the default installation folder that contains a special character, such as #. To prevent these conflicts, install Photoshop Lightroom from the desktop, and use the default folder name and path.
If Photoshop Lightroom autoplay displays, click Cancel when you are requested to Select the Language.
Copy the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom folder from the Photoshop Lightroom CD-ROM to the desktop.
Open the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom folder on the desktop.
Double-click the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom.msi file, and follow the on-screen instructions.
7.Re-create thePhotoshopLightroompreferences file.
Re-create the Photoshop Lightroom preferences file to eliminate problems that a damaged preferences file might cause:
Quit Photoshop Lightroom.
Rename the Lightroom Preferences.agprefs file (for example, to Lightroom Preferences.old) in the Users/[username]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Lightroom/Preferences folder.
Start Photoshop Lightroom. Photoshop Lightroom creates a new preferences file.
If the problem continues, the preferences file isn't the cause. To restore custom settings, delete the new preferences file and restore the original name of the previous preferences file.
8.Install and run Photoshop Lightroom while no other applications are running.
Some applications may interfere with installing or running Photoshop Lightroom. Virus protection programs are meant to stop viruses from installing on your computer. Before installing or starting Photoshop Lightroom, disable other applications, including virus protection programs and startup items (items that start automatically with Windows).
To disable startup items and non Microsoft services:
Quit all applications.
Choose Start, type msconfig in the Search text box, and press Enter.
Write down all unselected items under the Startup and Services tabs.
Click the General tab, and choose Selective Startup.
Click the Startup tab and select Disable All.
Click the Services tab and select Hide All Microsoft Services.
Select Disable All then re-select FLEXnet Licensing Service. If you are unsure whether an item is essential, then leave it deselected (disabled).
Click Apply, and restart Windows for the changes to take effect.
Note: Upon restart, you'll be notified that the System Configuration utility has made changes to the way that Windows starts up. Click OK. When the System Configuration utility appears, click Cancel.
Right-click icons in the Notification Area and close or disable any startup items that are still active.
9. Install Photoshop Lightroom to a different hard disk after disabling startup items and installing from the hard disk.
Hard disk problems can prevent Photoshop Lightroom from installing correctly. By installing Photoshop Lightroom to a different physical hard disk, you can verify if the original hard disk is preventing installation. First, completely remove Photoshop Lightroom from the hard disk.
To install Photoshop Lightroom to a different hard disk after disabling startup items:
Follow the steps in task 8 above to disable startup items.
If Photoshop Lightroom autoplay displays, click Cancel when you are requested to Select the Language.
Copy the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom folder from the Photoshop Lightroom CD-ROM to the desktop.
Open the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom folder on the desktop.
Double-click the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom.msi file, and follow the on-screen instructions.
Click Change and select a different hard disk in the Change Current Destination Folder window. Click OK, and then follow the on-screen instructions.
Intermediate troubleshooting
If the tasks in the previous section don't solve the problem, try the following intermediate troubleshooting tasks.
10. Install and run Photoshop Lightroom in a new user account.
Create a new user account that has the same permissions as the account that you use when the problem occurs. If the problem doesn't recur, the original user account may be damaged. For instructions on creating a new user account, see To add a new user to the computer in Windows Help or contact your system administrator.
11. Optimize handling of temporary files by Windows Vista.
Windows and applications store working data in temporary (.tmp) files that they create on the hard disk. Excessive or outdated temporary files can interfere with performance of Windows or applications.
Delete temporary files by using the Disk Cleanup utility included with Windows or by using the following instructions. Make sure that at least 1 GB of free space is available on the hard disk to which temporary files are written. To start Disk Cleanup, choose Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup. For information about Disk Cleanup, see Windows Help.
To manually delete temporary files:
Note: Windows deletes temporary files when Windows and applications close normally. However, when Windows or an application crashes, temporary files can accumulate on the hard disk. Windows may prevent you from deleting some temporary files as they may be in use. Delete as many temporary files as you possibly can, without deleting the files that are in use.
Quit all applications.
Choose Start and type %tmp% in the Search text box and press Enter.
Delete the contents of this folder.
Note the drive letter where this directory is located.
To ensure that at least 1 GB of free space is available on the hard disk to which temporary files are written:
Choose Start > My Computer.
Select the drive noted in step 4. Right click and select Properties.
Confirm the drive has at least 1 GB of free space.
12. Repair and defragment hard disks.
System errors can occur if hard disks contain damaged sectors or fragmented files. Repair and defragment hard disks, either by using the Error-checking tool and Disk Defragmenter utility included with Windows or by using a third-party disk utility. You should run such utilities on each hard disk or partition. More information about the Error-checking tool and Disk Defragmenter appears below; for more information about a third-party disk utility, refer to the documentation for the utility.
The Error-checking tool repairs bad sectors, lost allocation units and file fragments, cross-linked files, and invalid file names. To access the Error-checking tool, choose Start > Computer, right-click the desired hard disk, and choose Properties from the menu. In the Local Disk Properties dialog box, click the Tools tab, and then click Check Now in the Error-checking area.
Note: To prevent Disk Defragmenter from moving files to bad sectors of a disk, run the Error-checking tool before running Disk Defragmenter.
Disk Defragmenter rearranges the files and free space on your computer so that files are stored in contiguous units and free space is consolidated in one contiguous block. To access the Disk Defragmenter utility, choose Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Defragmenter.
13. Scan the system for viruses.
Use current anti-virus software to check the system for viruses. Virus infections can damage software and cause system errors. For more information, see the documentation for the anti-virus software.
14. Try to install Photoshop Lightroomon a different computer.
Try to install Photoshop Lightroom on a different computer to determine if the problem is unique to your computer. If the problem is unique to your computer, contact the computer manufacturer; if the problem occurs on multiple computers, contact Adobe Technical Support.
Advanced Troubleshooting
If the tasks in the previous section don't resolve the problem, you may be able to resolve the problem by reinstalling Windows Vista and Photoshop Lightroom, reformatting your hard disk and reinstalling Windows Vista and Photoshop Lightroom, or by determining if hardware is conflicting with Photoshop Lightroom.
Disclaimer: Adobe doesn't support hardware and provides these procedures as a courtesy only. For further assistance, contact the hardware manufacturer or an authorized reseller. If you troubleshoot hardware problems yourself, you may void the warranty for your computer.
Note: Before you remove or rearrange hardware, turn off and disconnect power to the computer and any peripheral devices.
15. Log in using the built-in Administrator account.
The built-in Administrator account has a higher access level to the system than a normal local administrator account. By default the built-in Administrator account is disabled. For information about enabling and logging in to the built-in Administrator account, contact your system administrator. You can also refer to this support document on the Microsoft support website: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/926183/en-us?spid=11737&sid=73.
16. Reformat the hard disk, and reinstall only Windows Vista and Photoshop Lightroom.
Reformat the hard disk, and then install only Windows Vista and Photoshop Lightroom from the original installation media. Reformatting a disk erases all files it contains, so be sure to back up all personal files first. Also make sure that you have all application and system disks.
For instructions on performing a clean installation of Windows Vista, see document 918884, "How to install Windows Vista" on the Microsoft website at http://support.microsoft.com.
Note: Don't install additional software or hardware until you're sure that the problem is resolved. Don't back up the hard disk and restore Windows and Photoshop Lightroom instead of reinstalling them. If the problem is caused by an application or Windows, and either one is restored instead of reinstalled, the problem may recur.
After you reformat the hard disk and reinstall Windows and Photoshop Lightroom, try to re-create the problem:
If the problem no longer occurs, then install other applications one at a time and try to re-create the problem after each installation. If the problem occurs after an installation, then the recently installed application may be the cause.
If the problem occurs when only Windows and Photoshop Lightroom are installed, then the cause may be hardware-related, and you should contact the hardware manufacturer or an authorized reseller for assistance.
17. Check for problems with RAM modules.
Ensure that the RAM modules are installed properly and are not the cause of your problem. Do one or both of the following:
Change the order of the installed modules.
Remove all but the minimum number of modules needed to run Windows and [product], and test to see if the problem persists. If it does, replace the modules you removed and remove the others, testing again to see if the problem recurs. If it doesn't, then one or more of the removed modules are the cause. For assistance, contact the RAM manufacturer.

Problem to upgrade Lightroom 5.2 to 5.3 in windows 8.1 pro

I have problem to upgrade Lightroom 5.2 to 5.3. I have download and extrakt the down load file on desktop and started the installation as administrator. The computer can not find the Adobe _Lightroom _x64.msi. Is it someone who can solve the problem? Hans

Hallo
Thanks for at fast replay.
The message is in Swedish and I try to translate:
“The function you are traying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable”. And the massage says also that I shall use: AppData\Local\Temp\{F4C4486E-6739-4CEF-82C5-BEADCC2774EA}. But can´t find the file in the temp file.. I cannot find Adobe_LightRoom_x64.msi anywhere on the computer. I have tried to download the file several times. I can think it can be a problem with uncompressing the file.
I hope you have a solution of this problem
Best regards and I wish you a happy new year.

What kind of interpolation when cropping in Lightroom???

We worry about using the correct interpolation when resizing photos in Photoshop, but what happens when we crop in Lightroom? How do we even know what interpolation is being used?
I keep standard interpolation in PS set to bicubic sharper because I usually downsize or crop. but have no idea what happens in Lightroom.
Anyone know the answer?

Sinc (Lanczos) is the theoretically-best interpolation approach, but by far the most computationally expensive.
> Ditto what Jao says -- you really don't need to resample your image when sending to a lab (certainly never downsize it!)
This is bad advice. If you send a 100MP image to a lab and ask them to print it 4x6, you're going to get the softest 4x6 ever. Down sampling to final size and sharpening there is the best approach.
Some good information at the bottom here:

Precise cropping in Lightroom

Hello
Is it possible to get precise cropping in Lightroom such as 3:2 ratio 1800x1200 pixels at 300dpi?
This would make a 6x4inch print

I'm not sure why Adobe opted for imprecise cropping only, but until they see fit to "tighten it up", XmpCrop is the only way I know to crop exactly.

Cropping in Lightroom and ACR+edit in Photoshop

Using the latest versions of Photoshop CC and Lightroom. After editing a raw file, including cropping, in either Lightroom or ACR and then
proceeding to Photoshop, the adjustments-exposure, white balance etc. are imported but not the crop! Very strange. Help would be appreciated in
solving this problem. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the quick reply Graeme. That is correct. I have tested the issue with a representative from NIK/Google. The "selective tool" was causing the problem. I was dealing with other problems too, like the "exposure" slider in ACR was jumping back all the time. I have been following another discussion concerning this (http://forums.adobe.com/message/5806682#5806682).

When I try to crop using lightroom 5 the image vanishes in a grey out.

Has anyone had this problem. When I try to crop an image in the devlope module in Lightroom 5 the image vanishes and I am left with a grey out. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but still have the problem. Do I have a setting wrong?

Problem with starting Lightroom CC 6.0 and 6.1

I upgraded to Lightroom CC (6.0) from 5.7.1. Photographer Cloud Service. Since completing the install, very time I go to start LR, I get an error box stating..."The action cannot be completed because the other program is busy. Chose 'Switch to" to activate the busy program and correct the problem". There are two boxes to click on, "Switch to", and "retry". Clicking on either will start LR but it takes several clicks to get it complete the start up.
I read a "fix" on the lightroom forum that deleting the SL Cache folder would fix it. That did for a couple days. However that error box has returned when I went to use LR this morning, the day after 6.1 installed. LR 6.1 did start normally after several cold boots of the computer the day the update was installed.
This is on a windows 7-64 bit desktop with 3.4 Intel 7 chip, 18 gig of memory, over 1 TB of free space on the drive LR is loaded on.
Thanks

For me, this was caused by some of my additional hard drives spinning down because of my power settings. Changing the power settings to never turn off hard drives fixed the problem.

Problems Installing trial Lightroom on laptop w/Vista

You should never extract to "C:\Program Files". Ideally, you extract
to a temporary directory, and then run the extracted installer from
there.

Ah, but have you checked the write privileges of the destination

Try again, but extract to a temp directory, and run the installer from there.

Problem exporting from Lightroom 4 to Photoshop CS6

When using the ctr E keyboard shortcut to edit in PS6 frpm LR4, multiple raw files are generated in PS CS6 and only stop creating when PS is forced closed. Using the Drop Down menu in LR makes the transfer to PS6 no problem. Am I doing something wrong?

Maybe a keyboard issue - shortcut key toggling multiple times. But, if you're sure your keyboard is fine, then try this:
Reset LR preferences:Windows 7/ Vista: The preference setting file is Lightroom 4 Preferences.agprefs, in C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Lightroom\Preferences\. Rename/ move this file to a different location. LR will recreate preferences during next launch. See if this fixes the issue. The reason we're renaming or moving it is so that if it doesn't fix the error, you can move it back there so you don't have to recreate your in-application preferences again
Reset Photoshop preferences: Follow instructions here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/375776

Problems printing in Lightroom

I am a long time user of Lightroom. I am running Lightroom 5 on a Macbook pro, OS10.9.2. In the past, I have often encountered difficulty when using custom paper sizes. Normally I can fix these issues by deleting all of my custom paper user presets, and restarting my computer. Occasionally I have had to shut down and try again in a day or two before the issues have stopped. For the past week, Lightroom prints partial images on my paper even when I set it for standard sizes. None of my usual troubleshooting steps have corrected the issue. I trashed my Lightroom print preferences file as a troubleshooting step, but I am not sure what else to do to correct the problem. I have been having to export my images and print them from Photoshop in order to get work done. Does anyone have any suggestions?

What printer? What driver? Was the driver installed AFTER 10.9.2 or before?
Mavericks has been know to cause issues for drivers and installations made before upgrading to Mavericks. How you arrive at your current print driver makes a difference...
Suggestion is to delete the installed printer, download the most recent drive (ideally specifically stated to be Mavericks compatible).
If that doesn't work you may need to do a more drastic measure of a complete reset of the Print & Fax settings...
