Catalogue Lightroom can't open because she is still open to another application
Since yesterday I can not open Lightroom. It is said that the Lightroom Catalog is unable to open because it is still open in another application. When I look at I have no active programs. All this began after I had force stopped because the PC got stuck. Anyone for help? THX!
When Lightroom is opened, a lock file is created to prevent third parties to access the catalogue. Normally, this file will be deleted when you close Lighroom, but if she's not close properly because of a freeze or a power failure, it could not be deleted. You will then get an error message saying that the catalog is open in another application, and you can not launch LR.
Using the Explorer/Finder, navigate to the folder that contains your catalog.
Delete the file that ends with .lock. Do not remove anything else. Now, try Lightroom.

Lightroom catalog cannot be opened because it is open in another application already
Anyone have helpful advice as to why I can't get my Lightroom CC catalog to open because is already open in another application.
Looks like you are using LR 6 to open a catalog of LR 5. If that's what you do, the message would be OK asking you to confirm that you want to migrate your data to the new format for LR 6.

I use LR 3.6 and CS6 with RAW 7.1. Lightroom can't open images from a Canon 5 d MkIII - which can CS6. Should I re-download 7.1 RAW or what I need to update to Lightroom?
3.6 Lightroom is not and will not support files of 5 d Mk3. Your choice is either to upgrade to 4.1 LR or convert the files to DNG.

Lightroom does not open, says it is open in another application.
Depending on your operating system, use Windows Explorer or the Finder to open the folder containing your catalog. In this folder, you will find a file with the same name as your catalog, but with .lock extension. This file should be deleted, and then you will be able to start Lightroom.

I received an email with 3 accessories, 2 images and 1 PDF. I am trying to open larger photos and I get the message, "we are unable to open this file. You want to save and try to open with another application? »
Why can't click a picture in the mail app and have it launch a photo viewing application. ?What you need to do is to go to control panel > programs > by default of the programs > set your default programs. Or search for programs by default, which must raise I have right as well (just start typing on the splash screen or slide from left to right and click on the search button). Go to the photos and select set this program as default. This fixed it for me.

I have a Photoshop file with an Illustrator "Space bound" file inside. When I double-click on it to edit, the file opens in another application. No Illustrator. I checked the Illustrator file extension and it's AI. I went to the file origin and 'Open with' and FormZ (.fmz) is the default application. ! ? In the same dialog box, I chose other and set it to Illustrator and always checked off "use this app to open. Save the file and tried to open the file in Photoshop. Same problem occurs. FormZ is still the default app when I go back and check. Help.
Try to go to ctrl/cmd-k Bridge preferences, click the make file type Associations tab you files HAVE associated with AI.

How do I solve this problem
"Could not open the file" *. " INDD. Adobe InDesign may not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file format is maybe missing or the file may be open in another application."
It turns out that a Windows computer has been infected by a virus that worked its way to the server. We zapped the virus and restore the backup files.

Catalogue Lightroom 5 cannot be opened because it is already opened in another application?
No matter what I do, I can't get Lightroom 5 to open because of this statement "the Lightroom catalog named"lightroom 5 Catalogue"cannot open another application already has its opening." Leave the other copy of Lightroom before trying to launch. My choices are "Choose a different catalog" "continue" and "Exit".
There are no other programs running. Problem still continues with computer security products uninstalled. There is no catalog 'different '. I tried "open a new catalog, but any attempt to move the files to a new catalogue were doomed to failure. I'm about to uninstall and reinstall, but I'm going to lose my history of changes to my library. Someone at - it advice.
This normally happens after an abnormal termination of Lightroom (ie. an accident).
In the directory where your catalog is stored will be a file with the same name as your catalog, but with the extension. LOCK. yourcatalogname.lock.
Rename this file to something else and then try to start Lightroom.

Lightroom can't open catalog after update of December 2015
I can't open Lightroom after the update today, December 11, 2015. Why is this happening?
So I think that the only option that you have is to uninstall LR and then reinstall it.

Hello
What version of Lightroom do you use?
With Lr closed go to the location where your Lightroom Catalog (by default it is pictures/Lightroom)
Delete the. Lock file with the same name as your catalog. For example, in the image below, it is Lightroom4 catalog.lrat.lock
In your case, it will be Lightroomcatalog.lrcat.lock.Delete it
Restart Lightroom.
Let us know if this helps

Why I can't open the personalization application in the control panel?
I can't get Gadgets on my desk. When I right click on the desktop and click Properties, the window opens and closes immediately. I can't open the window customization either from the control panel. And the window of Windows Update no longer works... they just open and close automatically. I did a number of virus scans and nothing was found, so I don't know what the problem is. Any help?

Hello. I have an Acer Aspire under Vista 64-bit desktop. I have an error message when I try to export photos from Adobe Lightroom on my zenfolio online gallery. The error message reads:
"Lightroom can't access the internet. Please check your firewall and security applications (Little Snitch, Norton, Zone defense,...) and add exceptions to the need to allow lightroom to connect to zenfolio.com. "
I, to the best of my knowledge, did in the Security section of the Control Panel, adding to the list of exceptions in Lightroom. However, it did not connect.
I'd appreciate any help on this!

It might be best if you find the solution of Adobe Lightroom forum. After all, the forum is dedicated exclusively to the Lightroom application.
