Lightroom 3 catalog does not open

This morning when I started to Lightroom, I have no window and no catalog. I went to my Lightroom folder, double click on the catalogue and he also dragged to the LR icon - without success. There is no locked file in the folder of catalog with the same name as my catalog, so a locked file is not the problem. I can't get a catalog window, and without that I can't make even a new catalog, so I'm dead in the water until I have fix this. Any ideas?

Before you reinstall, try to reset the preferences: given to zero (or "Trashing") the Lightroom preference file. Lightroom Forums

If this does not help, then you must go for resettlement and make sure you have your serial with you key before uninstalling Lightroom.

  • Lightroom 6.0 does not open

    Hello, I bought Lightroom 6.0 in 2015 Dec (not membership of the creative cloud - just the application). I have used it very well, but do not have the last couple months. When I go to open the application, the wheel just keeps spinning with Lightroom front page showing version 6.0. Nothing happens and the application does not in fact. I thought to uninstall but don't know if I can re - stall it now. I know there have been a few updates to the 6.0 version, but because the application does not open, and I can't actually click on anything on the top tool bar of Lightroom, I don't know what to do. Help, please! Thank you.

  • Lightroom cc 2015 does not open after installation today, 24/04/15

    Today, 24/04/15, downloaded and installed Lightroom cc 2015 on my machine WIN 7 Dell 8300 Desktop.  The icon appears on the desktop, but it does not open.  I find the .exe file and double clicked on it and it opens either.  The list of installed programs shows that Lightroom was installed today, but it does not open.  I am currently in Lightroom 5.x, Photoshop cc 2015 and they always start ok; they have been also updated this afternoon.  Anyone have the same experience and determine what needs to be done to correct the installation?

    Robert-

  • Lightroom 5.5 does not open after upgrade

    I've updated to 5.5 Lightroom using creative Cloud, but the program does not open. I uninstalled and installed again, rebooted and logged on as a different user, but none of these things has solved the problem.

    Jeff,

    Your solution did not work for me, but uninstalling and installing from a direct download worked. Unfortunately, the creative cloud app has been a major problem for me. Most of the time it doesn't, opening with only a white space. He did not always that lately, but the problems always arise with its use. I tried all the fixes I could find to do the work of the app, but none helped.

  • Export jpg from Lightroom 5.6 does not open in other applications

    Recently, I noticed that the exported jpgs of Lightroom 5.6 cannot be opened in Canon DPP 3.14 and cannot be resized using Image Resizer plugin. Two of them that I use frequently.

    I've seen talk about this question re other applications also. Does anyone know if there is a solution?

    I am using 8.1 Windows 64 bit. 5 D Mark ii

    It's a problem with 5.5 (changed the placement of some of the internal headers of JPGs and other applications, including the DPP, could not open them), but has been corrected to 5.6. I just check on it by exporting a jpg file and open it without problem in PLR 3.14.15, Windows 7 x 64. Are your 'old' LR 5.5 jpgs?

  • Lightroom 5.5 does not open

    It has been downloaded from the clouds creative and also shows updated. I use it on a Mac. By clicking on the icon of doc (or directly via the Finder) it briefly displays the start-up screen and then nothing. He previously worked. Update of OS X installed 10.9.4 recently is the only change. It will not start in safe boot mode either. There is no lock lrcat file.

    1st recommendation is to trash the preferences file: to zero (or "Screw up") the preferences of Lightroom - Lightroom Forums file

    If this does not work, I would like to do a uninstall/reinstall.

  • Catalog does not open due to the "unexpected error".

    Although I installed Windows 10 weeks there, I used LR 5 several times since.  Now I get the unexpected error message.  I have 3 other catalogs, although I am not encouraged by the fact that they have dates of 01/05/2015, 12/01/2015 and 27/11/2014, none of them is open for the same reason.  Integrity tests the result in the same error.  I tried not to create a new catalog.  I would like to make a return to the top of this catalog as it was before today and the one before that.  What my next move here?  I have

    I could open a supported catalogue on an external drive.  By trial and error, I got another error message, but this time it said I didn't have administrator rights in the file I was trying to save in.  Should occur during the recent migration of Windows 10.  I got the necessary permissions and so far seems to work very well.  But thanks for your interest!

  • Lightroom 4, catalogue does not open

    Hello

    I'm sure that this has happened in the past, but I don't know how I solved it.

    Basically, I can only open some of my catalogs in Lightroom, Lightroom crashes just with nothing on the screen and I have to force it to quit.

    Any ideas?

    I remembered, I wiped the .lock file in the same folder as your catalog file.

    I'm guessing a corrupted download. If you have the correct file and you have unpacked it should install without problem on Snow Leopard.

  • 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. :)
