Lightroom 4 wants to show all the new photos as gray boxes.

Hello. I was downloading some new pictures today on Lightroom 4 and met with a blue screen. The computer is stopped and restarted in safe mode. I turned off the computer restarted and ran a disk cleanup and virus scan. When I booted up Lightroom, all the photos I had downloaded came gray with three white dots above them saying "loading". When I pulled them up to develop the module, the pictures were there, but I could see just the ones I actually clicked on. I read somewhere to optimize the catalog, but all this did was freeze LR. All of my old photos appear very well. I deleted all the photos of gray and tried to download it again but the same thing happened. I also tried to change to an other sd card, with the same result.

Don't know what else to do.

Help! I need this problem as soon as POSSIBLE!

For the record, I have a Nikon D5100 and a Dell laptop (3 years) with Win 7 64 bit Premium and Intel corei3. I also use a disc external hard silicon-power.

Thank you for the information.

Close Lightroom and navigate to the location of the lightroom catalog and rename the Previews.lrdata folder, once restart Lightroom and see if you are able to display thumbnails or not.

There are a few pictures of hundreds are not included, and I can't see even on my mac. I started the image capture what images of shows also only between 3 May and today.

    I want to split moments as I could in the old iPhoto! As old edition was better than the new. What you change things when the former worked well? Change is NOT always for the better!

  • Tabs for opening scheduled for launch. Now showing all the "new tabs".

    Launched Firefox, all tabs now just have the title of 'New tab' and a page of Board with nothing in the address bar.
    They appear in the closed tab history, there is no page to return to the tab, they are just empty, as if I had opened just one, but without the screen of the tile.

    Anyone has an idea on how to get back them?

    You can try to get the tabs you had open during the last update (using one that has date/time code in the file extension). This article lists the different methods to do this: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1021522#answer-633104

  • Import from the News Photos of Apple (not iPhoto) in Lightroom?

    As a complete Lightroom beginner how to import since the News Photos of Apple (not iPhoto) in Lightroom?  You said that there are no stupid questions.  I'm excited to get started with Lightroom.

    It is better to export Photos to OSX on the desktop versions or better still put them in standard Finder folders. Your versions will include any changes already made (not available in masters) and imported into LR duplicates will be completely separated, protect the library of Photos of corruption.

    You may be able to include IPTC metadata when exporting so that all of the keywords etc. imported.

  • I want that the to-do bar to show all the time

    When I use MS Word on my Macbook (OS X El Capitan 10.11.3), and I'm going to full screen by pressing the green button, I do not see the taskbar (the thing that says "file, edit, view," etc.) at the top of the screen.  It's a real problem for me because I write in several languages and regularly switch between different keyboards. to change keyboards, you must click an icon in the taskbar. So to move from a keyboard English, German or Spanish when you type in the Word doc, I have to first, click on the green button to make the smallest word doc, change the keyboard by clicking on the change of keyboard icon on the taskbar (that's a flag US for American English) and then click on the green button to make the Word doc full screen. Here are the three steps instead of one. I want to have the taskbar visible even when the Word doc is completely open, or to spend sort button that controls change the keyboard to another location on the screen.  Can we do anything?  BTW, I'm very new to Mac (always PC user before two weeks ago) so I'm still a little confused.

    This is the menu bar. If you use the full screen then you cannot have show all the time.

    Just expand the window in the image of the screen and you can display the menu bar.

    Also, you don't have to leave it full screen to see the menu bar. Simply move the cursor to the top of the screen.

    Or, you can configure a shortcut in the keyboard system preferences to switch between input sources. By default, it was cmd-space, but who has been co-opted by Spotlight. You can set it to what is convenient and not used. Then, you won't have to go in the status menu.

    What version of Windows you want to transfer is irrelevant. What
    you need to do is just transfer to another computer.

    There are several approaches to do this. What is the best for you
    based primarily on the amount of data you transfer. Here are a few
    choice:

    1. transfer on diskettes.
    2. transfer to CDR or DVD.
    3. by email from the old machine, and read e-mail on the new
    one.
    4. the two computers on the network and simply copy the files on the
    network.
    5. temporarily (or permanently) install the old computer's hard
    drive in the new computer and just copy the top.
    6. use a USB

  • I need to disable a copy of my Lightroom 6.1.1 and reactivate the new laptop.

    I need to disable a copy of my Lightroom 6.1.1 and reactivate the new laptop. There is no 'activate' or the button 'disable' to the title assistance at registration (contrary to what is stated in the forums).

    The help section on the Adobe Web site made no reference to disabling Lightroom specifically, and the advice given for other products do not seem to apply.

    Can anyone help with a specific procedure to disable the product?

    Lightroom allows two facilities under a license. All what you need to do is uninstall Lightroom 6 and then install it on the new.

    Please try and delete preview Cache.

    It is located in the same folder as the catalog in Lightroom. The name of the cache an extract ends with Previews.LRDATA and should be deleted. Not to be confused with *. LRCAT, which should not be deleted

    Default location should folder of the image.

  • Text entry box does not show all the text

    I'm creating a simple exercise where I want the user to copy text from the course, paste into word and report back what the number of words.  I thought that perhaps the text entry box would be the best way to go, since if you click the text (the default), you can copy it.  However after I place the paragraph of the text in the box and resize in the editor, until all of the text shows, it does not show all the text during playback is previewd or published.  It only shows the last words of the last row in the upper part of the box.

    Is there something that I am missing?  Or, is there a more easy/better way to do what I need?

    Thank you

    Hi all

    If it Captivate 4, there may be no need of a widget to do this. I'm guessing that you haven't tried allowing the scroll bar for the text of the entry (TEB) box?

    When I just plop a TEB on a blade, I get this in edit mode:

    During playback, it looks like this:

    But if I change the TEB properties and select the Show scrollbar option:

    I get this in the output:
