Lightroom CC (2015.2.1) requires force quit since the upgrade to El Capitan.

Since upgrade my iMac to El Capitan, Lightroom CC abandonment causes the death spinning beachball. The only way out is a force quite.

Several people have reported this bug on the Adobe official feedback forum: 2015.2 Lightroom: depends on quit smoking. There are two workaround solutions that have worked for some in this topic:

-Uncheck the preferences > General > show Add Photos screen.

-Reset the preferences of LR: reset the lightroom - updated - Lightroom Forums preferences file

Please add to this bug to your vote report, details of your question, and if either of these two solutions helped you. Only he that will give priority to slightly more likely Adobe will make a fix.

  • Since the upgrade to El Capitan, Lightroom crashes after sleep and requires Force Quit. Is there any solution for this?

    It happens constantly and is extremely frustrating. Everyone knows this or does anyone know a fix?  I use an Imac, retina 5K to 27 in late 2015.

    Thanks in advance.

    Disconnect all your external drives, then check if blocking is occurring always. El capitan has made some changes that actually a bit lazy with reassembly of external hard drives after reactivation, and it's a good idea to check if the cause of your problem is the external drives. If this does not prevent blocking problems, you can reset your Lightroom preferences files. See here: http://www.lightroomqueen.com/articles-page/how-do-i-reset-lightrooms-preferences/

  • Bridge CC 2015 - Photo Downloader do not work after the upgrade to El Capitan

    After the transition to OS X El Capitan does not work 'Photo Downloader'. In the 'content', I see my memory card with the images, but "Downlader' reports 'None Detected" (No Device Found). I installed the latest version of Adobe Bridge CC 2015, which runs on iMac 2012 with I7 and 32 GB of memory. Before moving to El Capitan, this feature works without problem. What can I do?

  • Lightroom crashes after closing and the Catalog backup. Requires "Force quit" on OSX El Capitan (10.11.1). (Both set to upgrade to this week.)

    Hello. I upgraded OSX earlier this week in the latest version of El Capitan. Not using Lightroom since then I think. This morning, LR wanted to update and I let him. Now, LR crashes when I close and let him make a backup of the catalog. I use oSX 'force quit' to close. Otherwise he not re-open.

    Can you please have a look at this issue?

    PS I spotted the new import dialog. Can't say that I like that too. I don't know that I'll get used to it.

    It seems that Lightroom doesn't support tethering with Nikon D750 under the new OS El Capitan - it's a mess... When he is expected to be corrected? I've just updated after I ignored for so long all the reminders to upgrade of El Capitan... and now :-(

  • Since the upgrade to first Pro CC 2015.1 version 9.1.0 (174) version all my media is on hold. How can I fix it?

    Since the upgrade to first Pro CC 2015.1 version 9.1.0 (174) version all my media is on hold. How can I fix it?

    I've been using the last verisions and upgrades were OK. I recently allowed my computer upgraded to Windows 10, all right. Organization worked OK, until the update of the week last in the latest version. the first project that I opened was to be converted (normal), but all media is pending, including in the media browser.

    No media has been moved.

    How can I fix?

    If I've been using this for a life I would be quite upset now.

    Imagine if I were to dig trenches Friday with my shovel Catapillar and cat updated engine on Saturday and Monday I find that it will not dig more... :-(

    It seems that I fixed it myself, but I do not know what part was fixing.

    I found the menu to clean the cache, Edit > preferences > Media, Media Cache database and click on clean up. Who did nothing immediately, so I stop the program and restarted.

    During the restart of all media is now here.

    Why have I not to do... Grrrrr.

  • Something Apple regarding 10.11.4 gel and requiring a hard reboot?  I had several incidents since the upgrade (supposedly) gel to 10.11.4

    I'm having a problem with my Pro MacBrook retina (end of 2013).  Since the upgrade is supposed to 10.11.4, I eperienced several system freezes; all

    that required a hard reboot.  The machine is Core i7 to 2.3 gHz, 16 GB 1600 mHz DDR3 ram, 512 GB ssd.  Safari v.9 (1).  It is obvious that the other users are

    having the same experience - any word from Apple regarding a solution?  I expect this kind of thing from Windows, not Mac machine...

    There is no systemic problem with 10.11.4 gel. Where are you this information? If you get it from forums like this one do not forget that the few people who post here post about issues they know. Their messages do not represent millions of people, not problems.

    A lot of questions like yours goes back to 3rd party apps incompatible or drivers that have not been updated for 10.11.4. Provide details of your question and we will try to help you.

    Since the upgrade to 2015 CC and change my site to a paid site, can my customers is more updated of the site through the browser update. When they try, parts and pieces of the site appear and they can see what it takes to update. It's about to make me lose my client. Help, please.

    We have identified two questions:

    (1) muse implements a markup bad comment, causing in the edition (IBE) browser to display the page properly. Only, this affects IBE and does not affect the published site. The combination of page that causes the bad markup is still TBD.

    (2) IBE does not account for the bad markup that leads to incorrect DOM, leaving IBE unusable.

    We have a fix for IBE (as BC) who is ready to be tested. We will update this thread when the fix is on.

    Sorry for the inconvenience.

  • Someone else to get errors 'droplets could not communicate with Photoshop"since the upgrade to LR2015 CC and CC 2015 PS on Windows?

    Someone else to get errors 'droplets could not communicate with Photoshop"since the upgrade to LR2015 CC and CC 2015 PS on Windows?

    I have a droplet which stretches from digimarc on my images.  Its working well for the past 2 years.  However the most recent upgrade to LR2015CC and PS2015CC its broken.  I did go back and manually install the digimarc plug-in (because it is no longer installed by default) in PS 2015 CC.  The drop works well when it is run within PS2015 CC however when I try to run it as part of "Post-processing, after export" in CC LR2015 I now get an error message "droplets could not communicate with Photoshop.  It worked in the latest versions of LR and Psalm

    Anyone have this same problem?   It is a technique of very popular workflow for those of us who use digimarc.  I wonder if anyone else has encountered this and has a fix.

    Thank you

    Work around is to install the OLD PS CC2014 and restart the computer.  Then it magically connects to CC2015 PS without errors.

  • Does anyone has problems with the Pgm/Src/monitor overlays since the upgrade to 2015.3?

    I'm running a Windows 10 system and jumped right in to 2015.3 last week to begin a new documentary project runs.

    While the construction of a first string / radio edit I noticed that without overlays showed in the panels of the Source monitor or program on my monitor, despite overlays being enabled for all of the foregoing. No amount of toggling the State of overlays on and outside, or change the settings for overlays, layout, etc. could force it to display. The only way I could get them back was to exit and restart the application, but the resurgence was temporary. After a short period of time (that is to say the next time I looked / need them) recoveries once more disappeared. Weird.

    Never experienced this in 2015.2 or before.

    Start the computer and now it works...

  • Error: The installer cannot set Windows XP required configuration information during the upgrade to Windows XP Home SP3 of Windows XP Pro.

    Original title: OEM Windows XP Home SP3 update XP Pro

    Here is a compilation of the messages from another forum regarding
    My problem:
    ---------------------------------------------------------------

    I'm trying to upgrade a Windows XP Home Sp3 OEM system to
    Windows XP Pro. (There are a few Pro features
    that are not available in the House I now need: (1) the files offline and
    (2) an add-on available for free to Onenote 2007, Top2onenote, requires a Pro).
    I don't want a clean install, but an upgrade. I bought a Windows XP Pro
    Upgrade CD on Ebay that was Windows XP Pro
    Gold (v2002). I'm sure that's true for the following reasons:

    It has been listed as an upgrade, but the CD is not labeled "Upgrade".
    It seems very authentic with all Microsoft holography.
    He came in the standard package of Windows XP (without box),
    and it was sealed.
    The name of volume for the CD is WXPFPP_EN. The Internet,.
    It is the retail of Windows XP Pro RTM (gold)!

    Here are things I tried initially.

    (1) I tried to upgrade to Pro from the purchased CD. It is immediately
    has refused to upgrade indicating the upgrade OS (Pro) is older than the
    installed OS (home)...

    (2) I read about "slipstreaming". "Slipstreaming" allows to integrate
    a service pack with an earlier version of the operating system. I created a
    upgrade XP Pro SP3 with Nlite slipstreamed CD image (and
    Autostreamer later, but it made no difference) from the purchased CD
    and a file containing SP3.

    After you burn the CD and start the upgrade
    (Windows installation), the upgrade process
    product through "information collection."
    "Dynamic update" and "Preparation of Installation" with
    no problems. My computer restarted and returned to
    "Installation preparation". A progress bar called 'Progress '.
    quickly filled to about 90% and the hanging system
    at that time there for about 15 minutes.
    Then, I got the following error message:

    Setup cannot set the required Windows XP configuration
    information. This indicates an internal Setup error.

    This is where I am stuck. I had to leave the installation at this point.
    My drive is starts raining and I had to restore a backup.

    (3) just for the heck of it, I formatted my hard drive and
    reinstalled my original OEM XP Home SP3 OS (no clean up, no user file).
    I immediately used my XP CD slipstreamed Pro to try one
    upgrade to XP Pro and IT WORKED! I need to find out why the
    properly clean XP Home OS upgraded to XP Pro but my pre-existing
    (with the files users, drivers, etc..) XP Home OS does not level
    successfully to XP Pro.
    -------------------------------------------------------------

    Another post:

    Yet once, today, I installed a new copy of OEM Windows XP Home Sp3.
    I continue with installation of all the essential and the add-on
    pilots (essentially all my original version). Then, I
    set up a network connection and firewall. With this configuration,.
    I ran the Pro XP slipstreamed SP3 CD. The upgrade to XP Pro
    success (even if the upgrade not configured my graphics
    card properly). I guess my current problem is either the registry,
    the WINDOWS, some user file or parameter file.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------

    Another post:

    I made a file and the backup of the folder C:\Windows folder
    on my system that is pre-existing (OEM XP Home Sp3). I also did a
    separate the backup the State of the 'system' on my pre-existing system.
    These are added my full image backup of her pre-existing
    system a month ago.

    I did a backup image of my system (minimum fees OEM XP Home
    SP3 with all the original installed drivers over a network configured
    connection and a firewall configured). This system will upgrade
    XP Pro with XP Pro SP3 slipstreamed CD successfully.

    Experiment 1:

    I've restored my minimum system. I then restored the C:/Windows folder
    and the State of the pre-existing system backup system. A startup
    has managed (with a minor irritant). I had to activate Windows.
    Then, I tried upgrading the slipstreamed XP Pro processor. He stopped
    at the same place during the upgrade and gave the same error as before:

    Setup cannot set the required configuration information Windows XP.
    This indicates an internal Setup error.

    Experiment 2:

    I've restored my minimum system. I then restored the system state only
    the backup of the pre-existing system. After startup I was asked to
    activate Windows, but answer Yes to the question would be to disconnect me
    the system. I couldn't get connected to try the XP Pro upgrade.

    Experience 3:

    I've restored my minimum system. I then restored only the C:/Windows
    the backup of the pre-existing system folder. Once again, as in experiment 1,
    the upgrade failed at the same place with the same error message.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------

    Before the experiment 3, I hoped that 3 experience would succeed so I
    could conclude that I had a registry problem. I'm not sure now.
    I don't know what to try next. Take the minimum system and reinstalling
    my files of the user is not an option that my hard drive has over 200 GB of
    programs! If I restore all files and folders of my pre-existing
    I would still have backup to restore a system state the reliable (read the registry).
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------

    Sorry for the length! If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate your responses.

    Thank you
