Help! My Lightroom does not open!

My Lightroom does not. I just get a message that says: "cannot open the catalog Lightroom called"Lightroom 5 Catalogue"because another application already opened it." The catalog is not open.

My computer crashed and now it does not open.

With the help of your browser in the system (Windows Explorer or Finder), open the folder containing your catalog and search for a file with the extension .lock. You must remove this file and then Lightroom will start normally. The file will have the same name as the catalog you have used, but it will have the different extension. Delete only the file with the extension .lock.

  • Need help: the Portfolio does not open in my browsers

    I discovered a portfolio that opens in Internet Explorer (v.10.0) but the same portfolio does not open in Chrome (v.42.0) or Firefox (v.37.0.1) - rather only the cover sheet appears. I have Adobe Reader 11.0 and XI of Acrobat Pro installed. Are there special browser settings that I need to put? Thank you.

    Hi Steve, thank you very much for your answer. I have Adobe Reader XI and Adobe Technical Communication Suite 5 installed. But depending on your response, I found these instructions on the activation of the viewer Adobe Acrobat or PDF Reader for Firefox and Chrome. Here is the link: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-browser-plugin-configuration.html

    Work instructions, so I'm marking this as resolved issue.

  • After installation of the program of the unwanted trial CC, lightroom does not open.  Any help

    I have six lightroom.  Worked with no problems until what Adobe has installed trial CC on my computer.  Now lightroom cannot be opened as error message indicates that another application is open.  Has anyone had this problem and found a solution?

    IT was not helpful.  Someone had experience with Nikon Connect 2?

    This does not seem to solve my problem, but thank you.  I decided that the solution is to Nikon Capture NX2.  I don't have time for that.

  • Lightroom does not open as layers in PS CS5

    I'm at my wit's end. Whenever I try to open my photos in LR 5 in the form of layers in Photoshop CS5, it says that it Photoshop may not be able to open images without Camera Raw 8.7.1. When I click on open anyway, nothing happens.

    I used to be able to open some things very well, but I don't know why it doesn't work anymore. I tried to update a thousand times (which does not help because there is no Camera Raw 8.7.1 to PS5), I made sure all my programs are up to date, but nothing I try helps. The same thing happens whenever I try to do panoramic images from LR to Psalm I am a Windows user, any help anyone has would be really appreciated.

    You cannot open the new model in CS5 camera raw images directly because the device you are using does not support provided ACR with CS5 version.

    LR 5.7.1 includes ACR 8.7.1 to be able to open the images that you will not need to use LR to 'Edit' then select PS CS5. With this, you will get a dialog box asking if you want to open a copy by setting the RL, a copy without LR adjustments or the original. You must select a copy with or without adjustment of LR, depending on what you want. And then a TIF or PSD will be sent to the PS (TIF or PSD according to what file format selected in the External Editor of LR preferences tab).

    Nothing new about this. Adobe removes all the new camera support for older versions of PS and LR. Been like that since I started to use the PS in the early 2000s and LR since LR 1.

  • 6 Lightroom does not open when the camera card is inserted

    Hello. Tonight I just installed LR 6.0.1. I have LR 5.7.1. I disabled autostart with import of camera for LR 5 card and turned on in LR 6 - but LR 5 continues to open instead. I also have LR 6 chosen in settings of Windows Autorun for camera cards - but he continues to insist on the opening of the LR5 to import the contents of the card. What should I do to convince LR6 to open rather than LR5?

    Gets a bit confused with autoplay Windows when the two versions of the LR installed.

    There is a thread here that shows you how to modify the Windows registry to resolve the problem, if you are ready to go this route.

    Windows 7 AutoPlay does not work with Lightroom 6; Lance LR5 instead

  • Lightroom does not open, I have too many computers registered

    Lightroom is not CC but updated to the latest version of sad-alone. The serial number is valid, but when I try to start, I get a message saying that I have too many computers registered. As far as I know, I have only this one. I may have another old but he died.

    I have been using Lightroom for years and since April with the last update. The only thing that changes is that I got a logic board again set. But this should not change computer identity, it should?

    Thanks for any help.

    Hi miked

    The only thing that changes is that I had a new logic board set

    This means that you have added another computer, stand-alone always disable any product Adobe before you upgrade your motherboard or buy a new computer.

    Restart your computer once and try to activate again

    Let us know if this helps

  • Lightroom does not open!  Help, please!

    I tried signing out and back, which did not solve the problem.  I also tried to rename the folder according to Adobe, which did not work.  I tried to reinstall the cloud and Lightroom, which did not work.  Can someone please help?  I've lost the value of one day's production because of this.

    Yes, you need Windows Service pack 1 as a minimum configuration for LR CC work properly.

  • Lightroom does not open catalog

    Hi all:

    Help, please. New to this forum. Using Lightroom 2.2 on Mac.

    I had to do a reboot after a frost, and then I got the message:

    The catalogue called lightroom Lightroom 2 catalog cannot be opened because it is another application already opened. Leave the other copy of Lightroom before trying to launch.

    I can open my first catalogue but not the catalogue in question (I had just loaded with several hundred images). I reloaded lightroom program and reinstalled (irdata Catalog.Ircat and catalog Previews.) from my backup disk. I have saved on my backup disk images, but not in my catalog.

    Suggestions as to how I can reopen the catalog or is it fried?

    Thank you
    George

    George,

    When Lightroom opens a catalog file, it creates a "lock" file in the same directory as the catalog. When you have had your accident, has not deleted the file. All you need to do is to find and delete it and everything will be fine, probably. :)
