6.6 Lightroom, that an error has occurred when attempting to change modules
Whenever catalogs of switching or create a new catalog in Lightroom 6.6 I get the error 'an error occurred when attempting to change modules' bit followed by a crash of Lightroom. I followed all the steps in the troubleshooting guide for errors that can occur when you change the modules in Lightroom repeatedly, wiping out all my settings and the catalogs and re - download Lightroom from Adobe web site and put it back, all to nothing does not, the problem persists.
When reinstalling, I noticed that Lightroom 6.0 doesn't have this problem for me. However, once upgraded to 6.6, it presents this crash. On a lark, I tried upgrading 6.0 only to 6.5.1 - it works and allows me to create new catalogs without crashing. So, it seems that any accident that happens here recently got introduced to 6.6.
I use a 2010 Mac Pro running MacOS 10.11.5.
Are there solutions to this crash to 6.6?
Look here for a solution.

Had problems on OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 with Lightroom CC 2015.2 suspended several times so followed the advice on the forums:
- uncheck "Show"Add Photos"screen" "
After awhile the same day LR would always hang and now totally crash at startup with no error messages or anything like that. Tracking guides:
-Sign out, then back in CC
-Deleted preferences of Lightroom with Option + shift while clicking on the application icon
-Preferences from LR deleted via Finder
Has not set, LR has not yet started. Decided to downgrade following guide how roll back to Lightroom 6.1.1 or CC 2015.1 | Lightroom training Laura shoe, tutorials and tips from:
-Uninstalled CC 2015.2
-Reinstalled old CC 2015
Does not solve the problem. Lightroom said: "an error occurred when attempting to change modules." and the catalogue has not loaded. Then followed guides:
-Creation of a new user account and trying to open Lightroom it
Does not work, did not start there either, same error message. Decided to try to uninstall and reinstall the old CC 2015 once again, this time turn off the computer laptop inbetween:
-Uninstalled old CC 2015
-Disconnect from CC
-Restarted MacBook Pro
-Connect to CC
-Installed new old CC 2015
Always the same error message "an error has occurred when attempting to change modules." and can not use LR. Following following guide https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/unable-launch-lightroom-55.html:
-Disconnect from CC
-Rename the files SLCache > SLCacheold and SLStore > SLStoreold
-Open LR and connected to CC
Always the same error message "an error has occurred when attempting to change modules." and cannot do anything with LR.
Now I don't know what to do anymore. Help, please.

An error occurred when attempting to change modules. 5.2 on Mac Lightroom
5.2 Lightroom on a Mac... keeps saying "an error occurred when attempting to change modules.
Pilot78 I have a solution for you!
Go to the following folder: /Users/ [user name] / Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom
Then press control, click the lock icon, go to permissions, do read and write access to all.
For me, which did the trick. Stupid that Adobe didn't help me on the phone with this, the support rep was actually rather rough.
Hope this helps

Lightroom: "an error occurred when attempting to change modules."
I am a user of Lightroom (via the Cloud) first time (used Capture One before that) and just downloaded today. The first thing I saw was this error message
"An error occurred when attempting to change modules."
I've updated 4.3 and I tried all the other recommendations, I found here:
http://helpx.Adobe.com/Lightroom/KB/error-changing-modules-Lightroom.html
I don't know what are the products of Nik but I don't think I have.
I'm on a Mac 10.6.8
Deleted this file, preferably, I found here:
http://helpx.Adobe.com/Lightroom/KB/preference-file-locations-Lightroom-4.html
So frustrating! Please, can someone help me?
There was an old Installer bug which could be related. If it works in own account, copy the files back may work.
Save your copies of the following files/folders from your user account and then copy backup versions of the proprietary.
Macintosh HD / users / [username] / Library / Application Support / Adobe / Lightroom /.
Macintosh HD / users / [username] / Library / Preferences / com.adobe.Lightroom4.plist

How can I fix message error "an error occurred when attempting to change modules" on a Mac?
Just installed Lightroom 5. error message 'an error has occurred when attempting to change modules' how can I fix it?
It is ideal to have all permissions to the Adobe under the user's library folder, not only to do this, to avoid issues are of course the Adobe folder has read and write access to currently registered in the user account and administrator:
Follow the procedure below:
Step 1:
(1) right-click on the icon in the Finder, then select 'Go - To' folder.
(2) you will get a text box, type in the following command, and then press the 'Return'. () Do not miss ~ symbol)~/Library
(3) then navigate to Application Support > Adobe
.
Right-click on the Adobe folder and select ""GetInfo ' option. "
Expand the sharing & permissions section.
Click on the padlock icon in the lower corner on the right. Enter your administrator user name and password when you are prompted, and then click OK.
Please click on '+' symbol, it will open the list of user accounts. Add currently logged in username and administrator option,
Then indicate ""& read/write " permission currently logged in username and Administrator option."
Click the gear icon and select apply to closed. Close the dialog box information .
Then launch Lightroom application and check.
