Lightroom :: 4.1 Seems To Not Keep 1:1 Cache Images
Sep 5, 2012
I have the preference set to keep 1:1 cache files for 30 days, and the max cache size is set to 30gb. The cache file has never yet approached this size. I've gone through the trouble of having LR work in the background to create previews for whole collections. After this process, performance is as snappy as I'd expect; images load immediately and there's no more than a one second lag when zooming in to 1:1. But hours or days later, on the same collections, when there has been no change made to the files, everything slows down. The wheels spin as LR loads each image preview, even at reduced fit-to-screen size. Processor utilization zooms to near 100% during these loads, so it seems LR is rendering the views all over again.
What happened to my cached previews?
Running a mac pro, 8 core xeon 2.8ghz, 18gb ram, 3tb 7200rpm data drive that's about 10% full.
The delay happens when in develop mode. In Library mode the pre-made previews are available and load instantly. Is this just the way things are?

I'm on a MacBook Pro retina.
While I have a 500 Gb hard drive, I notice that the Bridge CS 6 cache is getting larger quickly (looking forward to 1 Terabyte SSDs).
I have most of my images on external hard drives, but Bridge CS6's cache seems to be on my computer.
Can I store the Bridge cache locally?
So, if I have 1000 images on hard drive A, the cache for them would be on hard drive A.
And for 100 TIFFS on hard drive B, the cache would be on hard drive B.
And for the 100 most recent TIFFs I keep on my computer's hard drive, the Bridge cache would be on my computer.
It this what checking the box next to "Automatically Export Caches To Folders When Possible" does or am I misunderstanding this - and this option only puts COPY of the cache files on the external hard drive, but the Bridge cache file on my computer still contains all the images, not matter on which hard drive they'd be?

I have like 12 symbols on the stage. They al have images in them in JPG format, saved at a quite low percentage in quality.The symbols are being animated seperately but it looks very sluggish.
I am recreating a whole Flash site in Edge. Everything works (amazing) fine except I am missing the function like it exists in Flash:“Display/ Render/ cache as bitmap”. (see image) This function used to BIGTIME in Flash too.Now how can I do something similar in Edge?I do not want to animate all symbols as 1, it is essential they are animated separately.Is this possible in Adobe Edge Animate? Is there something similar in Javascript/ Jquery?

Here's the text:
1. Should Media Cache Files and Media Cache Database be in separate folders? Does it matter?
2. Can I open an "in progress' project from P Pro CS4 with CC P Pro and continue editing?

I keep trying to open LR5 and it gives me an error message that says it encountered a problem with the preview cache and needs to shut down, and it will attempt to fix the problem next time I open LR 5. It keeps happening and won't allow me to open LR5 at all.

Quick question about Camera Raw Cache: Mine is empty. Always.
I've read that the Develop module stores information on photos it opens in the Camera Raw Cache, while the Library module stores its previews in the LRDATA directory adjacent to the Lightroom Catalog. I've also read that the former can be stored anywhere and is limited to a size specified in Preferences, while the latter must accompany the Catalog file and has no cap on its size.
So why is my Camera Raw Cache always empty? I go in and out of the Develop module, edit, switch among photos within Develop, view images at 1:1 and larger within Develop, etc. Shouldn't that cause cache entries to be generated in the Camera Raw Cache? I've tried moving my Camera Raw Cache from within Preferences, and I have the size of the cache set to 30 GB with plenty of room on the drive, but it's still always empty.

I have a preview cache error on start up. This persists even on re-start and LR will not progress beyond this point. I have tried a repair and a re-install but no joy. I also did a clean of the PC after to clear any registry errors too. Still the same happening. Photoshop works fine.

i was trying to move some files via LR.I've researched and found that everyone else was able to fix their issue by moving the preview database out of LR, tried that but it doesn't fix the problem.I've moved all files except the new preview and catalog (only a single catalog) database from the Picture/ Lightroom folder.I've rebooted the computer several times and tried opening LR, still no joy.The size of my catalog is 3.8GBThe size of the preview is 6.5GB (77,186 files in 45,745 folders).This is a new install from scratch on a new PC,
Specs are:
Intel i7 4770
32GB memory
2 x 250GB SSD drive in RAID 1 for OS and apps
1 x 6TB SATA HDD for images in a RAID 5
1 x 5.3TB SATA HDD for final images in a RAID 5
I've had nothing but issues with this system since day 1, images transferred and they do not show up correcting inthe individual folders (especially 2012). Total image count is about 320,000
Seems to me that LR cannot handle the numbers although LR3.6 was a lot stable this version is shakey all over the place.

I've browsed a few previous forum questions and answers and it appears I might need to find my catalog and delete my preview cache file(s). However, I cannot find where these files are stored. A few of the forum responses said to go into Lightroom edit/preferences to find where these files are stored, but I cannot get into Lightroom. When I open it, it gives me the error message and I can't seem to get into edit to find where these files are stored.
Also, I'm relatively new to Lightroom (been using it for a little over a month, mostly just editing and not much for cataloging and organizing my photos)

I have a macbook pro running osx 10.8.4 and LR 4.4 installed. When I try to change the cache size in the LR Preferences from 1.0 gig to 10 it doesn't "stick". I change it, close the pref. menu and when I reopen it to check, it's back to 1.0 How can I change this and make it stay?

I am running LR 5.0 on OS X 10.8.4 and everything was fine until a couple of days ago when I started getting this error message when backing up Lightroom. I have repeatedly restarted Lightroom, restarted my iMac, and nothing gets fixed. Do I even have a functional backup?

I have a problem with Lightroom 5. When starting Lighroom, I get the mention "Lightroom has found a failure while reading the preview cache, and will be closed". The problem stays, also when I start Lightroom again. Now I can't use Lightroom anymore and I can't reach my Lighroomphoto's.

I have somehow deleted pictures from my hard drive and all i have left is the cache folder. There are several .dat files ( 1 gig worth ) in the folder but I can't seem to extract them. Is there any way to extract these .dat files to their original files?

I use an external hard drive for my photographs. Recently I've been getting "Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to shut down" message. It says LR will attempt to fix this problem the next time it launches, but once I click ok, the program closes and when I restart it the same message comes up.I use LR4 and am working on a Macbook.

I usually import my pictures and ask LR to generate standard previews at the same time, which is fine for a full screen preview.When going to loupe view and zooming, LR inevitably processes a 1:1 view. This is fine for me. However, after scrolling on other pictures and going back to the same exact picture which has already been 1:1 rendered, LR displays the 'Loading' message and actually proceed to another 1:1 rendering. It doesn't take advantage of the cache even though 1. dat files are present in the ACR cache directory 2. I flushed the cache and tried again 3. I set a higher limit (20 GB).I'm running LR 3.5 on Windows 7 x64.

can you safely change the default location of the cache away from the C drive? I want to add a solid state drive to handle all my caches.
