Tried to open a new catalog after closing out first one in Lightroom 3.

After finishing work in one catalog & closing it out, I opened a new one to begin working. LR shut down and now when I try to open it to work I get a message "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64-bit has stopped working" and at the top of my screen that reads "Lightroom - Opening Catalog: CSC_0895.JPG.lrcat. Can someone help me with this or explain what is going on? I called tech support and requested a call back, was told call back would be in 4-6 minutes, and never got it! I understand that techs are busy, but so am I (kids, photography business, and a high school teacher prepping for mid-terms!) and when I say I'm going to call someone back in a certain amount of  time, I do! I have a project that was to be finished TODAY to get out tomorrow and now I can't. Please Help b/c adobe support isn't.

will other lrcat files open for you?  like the one you just closed. 
If so then your CSC_0895.JPG.lrcat. could have a problem.  My first thought is that  I wouldn't recommend naming a file" .jpg.lrcat" since it could cause an issue.  rename it "_jpg.lrcat " and try opening it. 
If that doesn't work try to open from a backup of that lrcat if you have one. 
If none of this works or if none of your lrcat files will open then do the standard restart of you computer.
If lightroom still won't start then reinstalling LR will not affect the lrcat files saved on your computer.
let me know what happens

  • Firefox claims that it is already running and will not let me start a new session after closing out

    I've been having this problem intermittently on both my Dell XPS 8000 and my HP nx7400 laptop. The Dell is running the latest version of Windows 7 Pro and the HP is running XP Pro (fully updated). After closing out of a Firefox session and running other apps, Firefox will not let me initiate another session, saying that "Firefox is already running... Please close the session..." That's not an exact quote, but you get the idea. CTRL-ALT-DEL and all other conventional means don't work and I am forced to reboot the system. This is a royal pain.. and I need some pain relief! Any suggestions? I may revert to an earlier version of Firefox until I see a solution... can't hurt, but I really like 4.0 and I don't look at going backwards as "progress."
    Thanks.
    Tom

    Sounds like it is hanging when you exit and later try to restart Firefox.

    After moving all photographs from my first catalogue, which was a mess, to a new catalogue, it all worked fine. Until that is I tried to open the new catalogue, which had worked OK all day. I now get a window that says "Unexpected error, select another catalogue."

    OK, restart in Safe Mode, this will clear some caches. It's possible one or more is corrupt. To restart in Safe Mode when you hear the start up tone hold down the Shift Key until you see a progress bar. Let it fully boot then restart normally and test.
    Also I am assuming you have checked Finder - Preferences  - General and see what boxes are checked in "Show these items on desktop." You can also mount an item in Disk Utility, simply highlight it and then look in the File menu for Mount.....

  • Depreciation run problem."You can only post in new year after closing the"

    Hi,
    We are implementing Asset accounting to one of our co code.New Assets were created in Jan and when I tried to Post depreciation for Jan, I get an error log that says "You can only post in new year after closing the previous year."
    When i double click on error message.
    Diagnosis
    You want to post in a new fiscal year. However, a posting must have been made in the last period in the previous fiscal year before you can do this.
    Procedure
    Post to the last period in the previous year first.
    So I went ahead and opened the previous year, posted the depreciation, closed the year and tried to post Period 1 again, but still get the same error.
    Why do I need to post the previous period if I just created the assets in this period?
    I Have completed AJRW, AJAB also.
    I think it may be a problem with Table. Please suggest me.
    Thank you

    Hi,
    Please check the following :-
    1. Check the Last Closed year in your Asset Accounting.
    2. Check the Last Depreciation Posted in Your Asset Accounting.
    These 2 menus are available in "Data Transfer in Fixed Asset Accounting".
    revert back to me for further actions,
    regards

  • Lightroom opens fine initially, but when trying to open a different catalog it will go through the process but never reopen again. I can't get it to open at all until the computer is reset.

    Lightroom opens fine initially, but when trying to open a different catalog it will go through the process but never reopen again. I can't get it to open at all until the computer is reset. I have been using Lightroom 4 for 18  months now and this problem just started happening in the last month.

    No error messages. It acts totally normal but just never reopens when I try to reopen a new catalog. I create a catalog for each of my clients....I have done this since I started using lightroom as it seems tidy to me. But, I have never had this problem until now. I am using a pc and vista and Lightroom 4. Thanks.

  • I opened a new catalog and now can't open my old catalog?

    I opened a new catalog in LR and now I cannot find my old catalog with 12K pictures on it? I've googled this, been on YouTube, tried to reach support. Can anyone help?

    The file should be in your recently used catalog list (File, Open Recent).
    If not then use your operating system to search for all files with the "lrcat" suffix.
    Failing those we might need to know the LR version and your OS.

    This is very annoying. Is this a bug? Or is there a fix.

    If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
    The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
    Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem.

  • Asset You can only post in new  year after closing the previous year

    Hi Experts,
    I am getting below error while running the depriciation:
    You can only post in new  year after closing the previous year.
    Message no. AA687
    Diagnosis
    You want to post in a new fiscal year. However, a posting must have been made in the last period in the previous fiscal year before you can do this.
    Procedure
    Post to the last period in the previous year first.
    Note : I closed FY09, even though there were no assets in it at the time.  The first  asset was capitalized on 12/29/09 (clearly in FY10).  I tried closing FY09 again and got the messege  No year-end close is necessary for company code XXXX .
    Could you please any one help me on this.
    Thanks In Adwance
    Regards,
    Saritha.

    Hi Saritha,
    Please check the following settings:                                                                               
    o Is there one ore more years since the last depr. run?                                                                               
    Solution: in this case an entry must be made into the table TABA. 
                      Note 144441  gives a solution to make a "Dummy-entry".                                                                               
    o If there was never a depreciation run, the there must be 000/0000 in
      TABA and T093D.                                                                               
    Solution: please take the report from the note  Note 144441           
                      and put the values  000/0000 in this fields.                                                                               
    o Do you  have a non-calendar fiscal year (e.g. 2009/10)? In this case
        you should have in the field T093D-AFBLG the year 2010.             
        Solution: Correction with note 26073

  • You can only post in new year after closing the previous year.

    Hi,
    I got error "You can only post in new year after closing the previous year." when I tried to run depreciation for first time for a company.
    In OAAR, it was noted that FY2008 already closed.
    Please advice.

    I understand you did the asset upload in 2008 and want to run the first depreciation run for 2009?
    In that case have a look in your take over data settings: SPRO:
    Financial Accounting / Asset Accounting / Asset Data Transfer / Parameters for Data Transfer /  Date Specifications / Specify Transfer Date/Last Closed Fiscal Year
    This should be 31-12-2008 (if the calendar year is the same as the fiscal year)

  • Finder crashes when trying to open a new window

    When trying to open a new Finder window, Finder will crash and relaunch but won't open an actual new window. Neither can I use the Go To Folder menu.
    I tried relaunching Finder, restarting my MacBook and repairing my disk. Unfortunately, nothing has helped so far..
    Any ideas?
    Small addition: I first noticed the problem while trying to open a DMG file. I don't have any reason to suspect this file is malicious though.

    I faced the exact same problem.
