Help please - ghost of locking files allow me to open the files.

I use Lightroom 3.6 on a PC with Windows7 64 bit. I recently had a car accident and had recovered.

When I go to open the lrcat file (from Explorer I click on the file name) and I get the following message. It also happens if I also sail from LR lrcat file.

Lightroom cannot open the catalog named 'xxx' because it is not writable and cannot be 'open '. I have attached a jpg showing the entire message.

A new file will appear with the same name: xxx. lrcat. Lock, but has this "lock" added to this extension.

Unfortunately not all my post processing created the xmp files or the re-doing would be easy!

Is there a way to get around\correct this? The "lock" is auto production.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Brad,

You probably do not have the volume property . Which was probably put in the shop to some other user id, perhaps on another computer.

Try this: right click on the volume of the computer, choose Properties, Security tab, set the permission for users (or anyone) for total control.

If this does not work, you will need to hit the Advanced... button on the Security tab and click the owner on the window that comes to the top and you assign as the owner.

Ja.

  • All programs have an extension .lnk instead of the extension which actually would allow me to open the program itself.

    Original title: Start Menu, all programs

    I don't know how but my Start menu, all programs have an extension .lnk instead of the extension which actually would allow me to open the program itself.  Don't know how it happened but I have been looking for a solution for more than a year now, and I'm not about to find an answer.  Don't know what to short to bring it to Best Buy and watch it with a geek.  Can someone point me in the right direction and tell me how to get the menu start original, all programs back to the way they should be?  Thank you

    The start menu (including all the components of the menu in all programs) are generally shortened. LNK files. It is hard to tell from your description, but you can experience a bad file association with the. LNK shortcuts. Take a look at the following article of the local and my solution to see if it fits your situation.

    Can someone help me create a script to repeat to simply open the dialog box to create a link?

    the "Connect" command uses the same dialog box as the command to "Place", except for the option "Replace" verified... so, use Ctrl + Shift + P to bring up the place dialog box, select your new image and select the checkbox "replace".

    If check 'Replace' with the mouse slow you down, after you have selected your image, the tab key 'press' 3 times to change the focus, and then press the SPACEBAR to check it out, then ok to place.

  • Need help please, I can only see outlines when I use the tool shape in CS5?

    When I open the 2 or 3 action script in CS5 and draw a rectangle or any form, I see only outlines? The problem IS NOT the outlines button which is in the palette layers, because I changed several times and he has mad no difference and it'S NOT because I've selected no fill, or color of the shape.

    If you want to see a screenshot of my computer follow this link that I have exactly the same problem http://forums.adobe.com/message/2927153

    BUT Interestingly, when I opened someone elses .fla working paper, I can draw and fill out forms without problem, which makes me wonder if I am missing some basic settings when I start with my new document?

    Any help would be appreciated. I'm quite familiar with Photoshop but a beginner in Flash

    I learned something new, given the display you point on that might help - it has the same effect as using the tool outline on the layer, but throughout the world.  In the main menu, select view-> Preview Mode-> and nothing, except the contours.

  • Help, please!   Nothing WORKS loading Acrobat Pro XI on the new MacBook Air

    I have a new MacBook Air.  I transferred all the files of old Macbook Air, including Acrobat Pro XI.  It does not work.   I bought Acrobat Pro XI on 18 February 2015.  I still have the email and the link for the download.  The link will only now in Acrobat Pro DC.  I discovered that with the code I have for Acrobat Pro XI, I could get a free upgrade.  OK, I downloaded Acrobat Pro DC and entered my key - that should work, especially if the upgrade is free, right?  EVIL.  He said that the key is not valid.  It IS valid for XI Pro because I have it on my old MacBook Air.  I went back and found the .dmg file that I downloaded originally to install Acrobat Pro XI.  Of course, who does not work on my new computer is - says it is not valid.

    Someone else in Adobe on this forum gave me links to the windows that obviously do not work on my Mac.  I simply cannot change computers?  What kind of racket is Acrobat?  Please, someone help.  I tried to solve this problem ALL DAY.

    I'm just screwed?  Is this really how Acrobat treats its customers?

    Hello

    Please refer to the instructions to disable the Acrobat on your previous machine in the following link:

  • Help, please. My CD/DVD drive won't open unless I use a needle and even when he's not reading anything.

    As I have said on the subject my CD/DVD drive does not open and it will not read. My computer sees the problem but has no solutions. That I am, I expected to do?

    Hello

    Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
    a process that solves the problem.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
    Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
    RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue
    below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward
    cable or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    ===============================

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
    Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
    do it right.

    Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
    the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

    Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
    the correct registry entries for your car.

    Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
    as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
    the parameters.

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE
