Unable to open LR trial version

Hello,
I have installed LR ( web-download from Adobe ). It seems the whole downloading and installing procedure went OK, but i cannot open LR.
I use windows 7 professional 64 bit. When i open LR by dubbelclicking the icon, it tends ro open, but nothing comes on the screen. I see that there comes an icon in the task-window but thats all. When i move the cursor over this icon, i get a miniature previeuw off what could be on screen, but there is nothing further that i can do. I have uninstalled LR and installed it again 3 or 4 times over the last week, but it is always the same....
Any idea's ?

Hi folks,
Many thanks to all of you who took time to help me out. I granded the correct answer to the one that exactly told me what to do. However i feel that others where on the same track, so i do not grand the 5 points answer.
I am now left with 20 day's of trial, so that's what i am going to do...
For your information, i normally only use 1 screen on my PC, but can use my TV-screen to look at my photo's, and did not realise that this could block LR.

  • Opening the trial version of lightroom

    I downloaded the trial version of lightroom for Mac OS 10.6 yesterday and it appeared to be working properly.  Today I am unable to open the trial version.  What is the rpblem?

    Did the program and computer shut down normally?  The first thing I would do is look for a file ending in .lock, usually found next to the catalog.  That file is created to keep more than one user from accessing the catalog at a time and possibly corrupting it.  If the program does not shut down normally for some reason, that .lock file is left behind and the program will think the catalog is in use my another user.  Delete the .lock file (but do not delete others like .journal or .lrcat) and all should be well.  If that is not it, come back and we will try to help you again.

    You may try to restart the Creative Cloud application by quitting and relaunching it.

  • I am unable to launch Dreamweaver Trial version

    I am unable to launch Dreamweaver Trial version which I have just downloaded. I am running Mac OS X 10.6.8 and have also performed a software update. Can anyone advise? When launching the application, I get the following error: Adobe Dreamweaver CC 2014.1 cannot be opened because of a problem.  Check with the developer to make sure Adobe Dreamweaver CC 2014.1 works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and Mac OS X. 

    Dreamweaver 2014.1 requires OS X 10.7.5 or later to be installed.

  • What program to use to open a trial version of Elements 11

    I am being asked 'How do you want to open this file'? when I tried to open the trial version of Elements 11 for the first time. Options included 'Look for an App'; Adobe Reader; Internet explorer; Notepad; Paint; Windows Media Player; Windows Photoviewer; Word or Wordpad? Which is the best option please? Thanks

    Not sure what you are saying. The actual program is a 7z file which can be opened with any packer program these days like the original 7zip of course but also WinZip and others. If you're referriung to the download assistant, then that is a normal executable, but it requires Flash Player and Adobe AIR to be installed properly on the system.

  • CS6 versions opening as trial version with paid subscription...what???

    I've had a paid sucscription since October and just today all my CS6 apps are opening as "trial versions" some with my previous workspace settings, and others without previous settings. What's going on? Was there an update via Creative Cloud that malfunctioned? I'm not using a 30-day trial copy of the application - I want the apps I'm paying for monthly back the way they were yesterday!
    Is anyone else experienceing a glitch in their service or applications? Why is this happening? All my profile and payment info is up to date - so what gives??

  • I am unable to download the trial version of Adobe After Effects.

    I am trying to download the trial version of After Effects for testing. I downloaded Edge animate from the cloud several months ago with no probelem. Safari says it can not open the address. Is this a firewall issue? I am trying to convince my boss to allow me to subscribe to the creative cloud but so far this is not helping running into to techical difficulties this early in the process. Thanks for any response.
    UPDATE: I uninstalled and then reinstalled the Creative Cloud download app. It seems to have downloaded and installed fine but when I go to download a trial app nothing happens, nor do I know what to do. The creative cload window opens in my mac and that's all. Any suggestions.
    I have also noticed the CC icon on the top title bar of my mac remains dim, don't know if that is an issue. The only options it gives me is Help, Open as window and Close Creative Cloud. What gives?
    Thanks for any responses.

    We being a state agency, we  have many security measures in place on our servers. It seems that all IT had to do was make an addition to our proxy. Problem solved. Everything downloaded fine and is working great. Now the fun/work begins.

  • Photoshop CS6 is opening as trial version of CS6 extended

    Suddenly my Photoshop CS6 is opening as a trial version of CS6 extended. Why? How do I make it stop, and open as it should?

    I'm in the same boat, and now it's ended and I can't open CS6 at all. Plus I'm getting no support from Adobe on this over the weekend.
    I tried re-installing on top of it, but that didn't help. I would completely un-install and try re-installing again, but think they'll leave something still stopping CS6 from opening.
    Why they forced this on us, I don't know.

  • Project files don't open after Trial Version

    After trying the trial version of Final Cut Pro X on my home computer I took the external hard drives to my editor, who has a purchase version of FCPX, but now none of the project files will open.
    Does apple put some kind of lock on project files once opened by the trial version? All updates are already installed.
    Might anyone have a solution?
    Many thanks,
    Paul

    IIn the File menu. Update Projects and Events. The Final Cut Projects and Final Cut Events folders need to be in the correct location to be recognize by the application. There is some information here about updating

  • Unable to open purchased student version "Evaluatio​n Software has Expired"

    I recently purchased a student version of Labview 2011 from Academic Software Downloads | OnTheHub eStore.  It worked for about a month.  Now I receive an error message when opening Labview: "This Evaluation Software has Expired".  Why is this happening?
    The installation instructions provided by OnTheHub eStore stated that no activation or serial number was needed when installing on a Mac.
    I am confused, because I thought I had purchased a student license, but I seem to have been given an limited time evaluation copy.  How could this have happened?  Can I do anything about it?

    I did not previously install the trial version of LabView on my MAC, at least not intentionally. I do know that I never installed a trial version which is available directly from the Labview website.
    The weird thing is this: It appears that I did not download and install the student version of Labview from Academic Software Downloads | OnTheHub eStore. It seems that instead I downloaded and installed a trial version of Labview from this download site. I don't understand how this happened, because I purchased the student version.
    I am currently communicating with customer support at Academic Software Downloads | OnTheHub eStore. Should I do anything else at this point?
    Thank You

  • I am unable to download a trial version of Contribute CS6

    I have tried numerous times to download the trial version of Adobe Contribute but the site does not respond when I press "download".  What do I need to do?
    BP

    There is no Contribute CS6.
    Do you mean Contribute 6.5? That's not part of the CS6 line of products.
    I downloaded successfully from http://www.adobe.com/go/trycontribute/
    Have you tried using a different browser?
    Any reason you want to use Contribute? It's rather long in the tooth these days.

  • Unable to open 30day trial download on mac os x

    I am on a mac os x 10.4.9
    once downloaded I am unable to open the "FreeHandMX-en.sit.1"
    folder since my system does not recognize the extension ".sit"
    Any suggestions?

    There is a built in utility (called BOMAarchivehelper.app) in
    OSX that
    should handle it automatically. If not then install
    StuffitExpander,
    available at stuffit.com. By the way you must have downloaded
    it twice
    that is why it's named "...sit.1" and not "...sit"
