Synchronize folder not working in Lightroom 5.7

When I synchronize a folder in Lightroom 5.7 it shows 'Task completed', but nothing happens and Lightroom does not respond anymore. Any advice? Running on Windows 8.1..

I found the issue: From the event viewer I found that there was a problem with a Wifi Scale that my pc was trying to connect to. After removing all references to that device in the registry and restarting windows, Lighroom was working again. Seems perhaps far fetched, but I tested after every small step I tried, and it sounds somewhat similar to the connected phone issues mentioned on the forum..

  • Photo bundle serial will not work in lightroom 5.4.

    I just bought a photo bundle membership but the serial number will not work in lightroom 5.4.
    I hade a tril version of LR5.4 which has now run out so I purchased the PhotoShop LightRoom bundle but the serial number will not activate LightRoom.
    I get a big red x
    Can any body help[ plaease.
    Regards

    You have to install Lightroom 5.4 through the CC Application Manager. Before you can do this proceed as follows.
    Uninstall the LR 5.4 trial (Mac drag the application from your Application sub folder) win use the Control Panel feature to uninstall. Your user presets, catalog etc will remain in place.Reboot your system then open the CC Application Manager and the LR download should be available for download. You will not have to actually input the serial number.
    Both applications are the same just the licensing procedure is different in the Creative Cloud.

  • Watch Folder not working in PSE 8

    My understanding is that My Pictures folder is automatically under Watch Folder list. However, whenever I create a subfolder within My Pictures in the Explorer and put picures in it, my media browser in PSE 8 does not show me those pictures in that folder. Why? It seems I have to manually add every subfolder within My Pictures to Watch list. Is that true or what am I doing wrong?
    Thanks!

    Hello,
    Does anyone have any suggestions to my question? I did not get any responses.
    Everytime I add pictures to any sub folder in the My Pictures, I do not see that in photoshop (PSE 8). I have to import each one o f them manually. Why is my Watch Folder not working?
    Thanks

  • Digial Filing, Scan to Network Folder not working on new Asus Windows 8.1 laptop

    I've having difficulty setting up Digital Filing, Scan to Network Folder on my new Asus Windows 8.1 laptop. I'm using a HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909g Series.
    It seems to setup correctly with no errors. However, all scans end up with a zero file size PDF. Trying to open them gives the error: “Adobe reader could not open 'scan.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
    I've previously had no problem setting up network folders to scan to on three other computers, all of which were running Windows 7, not 8.1. Digital Filling continues to work correctly on each of these older computers, but try as I might, I'm unable to get this feature to work with my new Windows 8.1 laptop. I've tried with both the “Solution Center” software and the embedded web access.
    I've compared all the setting I could think of to the previous Network Folders that work and cannot find any differences.
    The workaround, scanning from my laptop using the Solution Center software (rather from the printer console using digital filing, scan to network folder) works perfectly. As far as I can tell, all other features are working.

    The STUDIO is an older laptop running Windows 7. Scanning to network folders works perfectly as long as the folder chosen is in the \Users\Public folder.
    I do not know nor have not needed the Windows password on this laptop. It's been years since I set up this laptop; I don't know if it even has a password.
    The ASUS is a new laptop running Windows 8.1. So far, I have been unable to scan to a network folder; all the resulting PDFs are zero bytes.
    The network folders are all in Network Path: \\ASUS\Users\Public; if I try to create them outside this folder, I'm unable to even finish setting up the network scan.
    I DO know the Windows username and password for this new laptop.

    I've compared the properties on the folders involved on the two laptops by right-clicking them. So far as I can tell, everything is set exactly the same on both computers.
    Below are my experiments – the first three on my older Windows 7 laptop all work perfectly. All the rest on my new Windows 8.1 computer do not work.

  • Camera Raw 8.4 not working in Lightroom 5

    Hi:
    did install the CR 8.4 Beta. Can now preview .NEF files taken with the Nikon D4S in Photoshop and Bridge, however in Lightroom this is not working. Any idea why this is? Is there a workaround or a solution?
    Thx

    You’ve installed the Adobe Camera Raw 8.4 PLUG-IN for Photoshop.
    The term Camera Raw also refers to the version of internal programming, a coyp of which is included in the plug-in and in Lightroom, and in the DNG Converter, although each has its own copy.
    Updating the Photoshop ACR 8.4 plug-in that contains the CR engine 8.4 doesn’t change Lightroom 5.3 which contains the copy of the CR engine 8.3, still.
    What we’re waiting for is the next version of Lightroom to be released, likely called LR 5.4, which has its copy of the Camera Raw engine 8.4.
    The DNG Converter 8.4 beta has also been released and you can use it to create DNGs from your new camera’s raw files that will open in the older Lightroom, but I’d only do that experimentally, and not delete your original raws, in case something is changed by the time of the final release.

  • Lens Profiles not working in Lightroom 5.4?

    I've got OSX 10.9.2, Lightroom 5.4, latest Camera raw, everything up to date.
    When I "Enable Profile Corrections" for an image shot with a Sony a7r and Sony FE 55mm lens, it should automatically retrieve this profile:
      /Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/LensProfiles/1.0/Sony/SONY (Sony FE 55mm F1.8 ZA) - RAW.lcp
    Well, it doesn't.  The only Sony lens available in Lightroom's Lens Correction panel is "Sony DT 18-200mm."  But there are several dozen Sony lense profiles in the "Sony" directory.
    And more puzzling, the camera "Make" menu lists 8 manufacturers (Apple, Canon, DJI, GoPro, Nikon, Sigma, Sony, Tamron) but leaves out a number of others — Fujifilm, Hasselblad, Leica, Mamiya, etc.
    And as with Sony, only one Tamron lens is listed.
    I've tried re-installing Lightroom fresh, and no luck. 
    Photoshop works fine and has all the lens profiles.
    Anyone else noticing this?  Got a fix?
    Irked in Cambridge,
    Mike

    I only shoot in RAW, and I am having this same issue. I shoot Nikon with a Tokina lens. This morning, Tuesday October 14, 2014, I had this setting. I closed the program and restarted it, and now I only have Apple, Canon, DJI, GoPro, Nikon, Sigma, Sony, Tamron lens profiles. There was not an update, nor did I actually change any settings. What is going on here?
    I talked to customer support, whom suggested that I was stoned out of my mind because these profiles do not exist in lightroom. I did as the rep asked, followed the link and downloaded the "new" profile. Now I can't get it installed. Meanwhile, my photos are waiting for me to edit them. Can someone please help out here?!

  • MSR 2.0 Mobile Sales R/3 Synchronization do not work properly

    Hi to all there,
    we want to use the MSR 2.0 scenario with MI 2.1 SP03 Patch 06. Unfortunately the synchronization with the
    client do not work.
    We made some settings in TCO MSR_SELECT on the R/3
    backend system. The corresponding data reached the
    table merep_207 on the web application server. If we
    do the synchronization not all data appear on the client
    site. For example no sales order reached the client.
    Can anybody help regarding this problem?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Jill,
    thank you very much for answering...
    I worked through the trouble shooting guide, but I
    can't solve the problem.
    Can you give me some advice how to reset the
    client database (both on WAS and on the client) in order to start again at the beginning?
    I resetted the RDB tables already with the FB MEREP_RDB_T01_RESET and now no entries in the merep_mon
    existing, when I execute the synchronization today.
    You see, I am a absolute beginner...
    Thanks for your help..
    Best regards,
    Marion

  • Photoshop elements trial version plugin not working with lightroom

    Hello,
    I just downloaded adobe photoshop element trial version.
    The plug-in is not working with my already installed Lightroom.
    Any idea what I need to do?
    Thanks!

    I can't edit in Elements either. May be trial version of Elements can not be linked to Lightroom. Any thoughts? 

  • Media Folder not working

    k, i'm at a loss on this one.
    from what i have read the media folder that you designate is where itunes will store and catalog all your music/video etc. c:\...\media folder\ then it will have music and video and podcast etc.
    i want it to be C:\docs\ to my music/video/podcasts etc.. if i set my docs folder to be my media folder it just starts cataloging my artists, no \music\artists.
    if i make my media folder c:\docs\music, when i import a cd it starts cataloging all my music in c:\doc\music\music\ artists... from what i gather itunes is cataloging correctly here. but when i try to eliminate the music\music by making my media folder just docs, it is not working correctly.
    sorry if this is kinda long winded and confusing, but i am really frustrated at such a simple thing not working correctly.

    finally after 3 hours of mucking around i found it. although i had itunes set to organize my music automatically. the fix was telling it to re-organize it... stupid itunes...

  • PS CS action not working on Lightroom-exported JPGs

    Hi,
    I am using an old version of Photoshop (CS) and the latest version of Lightroom.
    I export the Lightroom image as a JPG, then open in Photoshop (either via LR Droplet as part of post-processing or manually).  I try to run two actions: 1) resize the photo, and 2) add watermark using a .PDF file.  What happens is the following:
    - I can run the "resize" action and it works fine, but the "add watermark" action does not work - it adds the blank layer background and the watermark is missing
    - If I run the "add watermark" action first, before resizing, that works fine.  However, I would like to resize first and THEN add the watermark.
    Please note that these two actions, in any order, work perfectly with normal JPGs.  I am only seeing this problem on a .JPG that has been exported from Lightroom.
    I have tried adding the graphical watermark in Lightroom upon expert, but it just does not look as good as when I add it in Photoshop, which is why I need this extra PS step.
    Any comments and insights would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

    No, this is true for all jpegs. When manually saving a jpeg with layers in PS, PS will show a caution symbol in the save dialog box. In the latest versions of PS it defaults ot saving the file as a copy and merging automatically. It leaves the original file intact, though. I dont remember what PS CS1 did by default. Point being that when running this process as an action, PS may have to decide what to do with the layer without user input.
    Jpegs created in LR are the same as any other jpgs. It very well may be a color space issue with the pdf. The jpegs that you are used to might be in sRGB and you might be exporting AdobeRGB(98) or ProPhoto from LR.
    Another possiblity would be where the pdf is located on your system. PS actions may be using relative paths instead of absolutes. IDK... that would be something for the PS forum.
    My plan of attack would be:
    1. Check the color space used on export.
    2. Add a merge visible to your action.
    3. Save the PDF watermark as a jpeg.

  • ITunes photo synchronization does not work with iPad

    Hello,
    I have an iPad and wanted to synchronize pictures on it. When I enable synchronization of pictures in iTunes and choose a folder and synchronize afterwards the synch finishes after 3 secounds and nothing happens.
    I have an iPhone 3GS as well and there it works properly.
    I tryed it with FW 3.2.2 on iTunes 9.2 and now I updated all to FW 4.2.1 and iTunes 10.1.1.4 but the problem still exists.
    I deleted the picture cache from the folder (solution from another forum - same problem on a mac) but it doesnt change anything.
    I know how to use the synchronization from my iPhone. I hope someone knows the problem and have a solution for it?
    Thanks

    The question is the following: Is it possible to have the screensaver display the artwork, when the music library is unmounted?
    Based on the set up you describe, no.
    Most of the times, such categorical answers are proved wrong.
    Here is what solved my issue: I signed in iTunes Store (it's sad that a credit card is required for that) and then downloaded the Album art work from inside the iTunes application. Next time i had the external drive unmounted, when the screensaver went on it showed the album artworks like a charm.
    So, my piece of advice for those that do not want to sign in iTunes Store is to copy the contents of the Cache directory (located under ~/Music/iTunes/Album Artwork) into the Download directory (located under ~/Music/iTunes/Album Artwork again). I haven't tested, but it could work.

    Hi,
    Have you made any progress ?
    May I ask what application is it that you are running ? You mentioned that it works locally but not when deploying to Azure. Have you checked the connections strings?
    If you are still having any difficulty in understanding the code, perhaps you could post it on the below blog.

  • New Mac: Why are CC and Photoshop Elements not working when Lightroom and Reader are fine

    Last week I changed computers (swapping an old Mac for a 13-in MacBook Pro Retina running OSX Yosemite 10.10.3. I copied all my data over to the new machine using Migration Assistant.
    All programs work fine (including my copy of Lightroom 3 and Reader XI). But my CC and Photoshop Elements 10 do not. I have tried uninstalling both, but whenever I try to reinstall PE10 from its disk or download it just stops almost at the end. I then I get an "initiation failed" message, along with a request to download the now defunct "Support Advisor" app!
    I cannot download Adobe Application Manager, or the CC desktop app either - for the former I get an "initiation failed" message, along with the "download Support Advisor" app" message again! For the latter I get a message saying "Adobe Creative Cloud Is Needed to Resolve this problem - however it is missing or damaged." Then I get a message and a link to download Creative Cloud. Then when I've downloaded it and I click on the installer... it runs for a bit and then I get the message again: "Adobe Creative Cloud Is Needed to Resolve this problem - however it is missing or damaged." And I get a prompt and link to download the CC app. Guess what happens next? And so it goes on. And on and on, in a tedious circle.
    This is incredibly annoying and frustrating as I have work to do! Anyone have any ideas what's happening?
    Cheers
