Lightroom :: Can Reinstall 4.2 Over Top Of Existing Copy
Nov 5, 2012
I am having persistent problems and notbody is commenting on my questions. I see other people with similar problems and there have been no answers for that either.I am running windows 7, 64 bit i7 3.50ghz computer with 32 gigs ram, and a radeon 7850 graphics card... I have a wacom intuos three. all drivers have been updated Saturday and problems still persist.
LR4.2 crashes intermittently on first opening. I have posted the crash on two other threads but nobody has replied. ( I dont know how to paste the link.) how can I roll back to version 4.1 that worked? can i install over the existing copy?can i uninstall and reinstall without a hassle with registration numbers?
I'm unable to reinstall Lightroom 5 from Adobe. I have done a "clean" installation of OSX Mavericks on my macbook Pro, but now the page for the download show the message "Not applicable" (see image). What can I do to reinstall it?
I have installed a new primary disc (C: in Windows 7 Pro) and re-downloaded LR4.2 release candidate. Can I simply copy the existing LR catalog (which I have on old disk, still accessible via USB, or from several backup copies) to the new disc and LR will work as it did previously. The drive letters of the locations of the actual image files (on other internal drives) have now changed so how do I tell LR to now use the new drive letter locations.
I have a user who no longer has a pdf option when "saving copy as" in Inventor 2010. He sees a few other options but not pdf. I will get him to perform a fix and reboot?
I'm trying to create / copy an existing workspace using c#
I couldn't find a direct way to just copy the existing workspace so I tried to add it's properties manually. The only trouble is I can't seem to cover all the settings here's what I have so far...
var userworkspace = new Workspace(cs, acadUser) { WorkspaceRibbonRoot = wsMaster.WorkspaceRibbonRoot, WorkspaceQuickAccessToolbar = wsMaster.WorkspaceQuickAccessToolbar, Name = acadUser [Code] ....
Pretty basic I know, how can I get PartialCUI tabs, palettes, etc.. applied?
There are two things in Autocad i can't figure out how to do effectively:
A) I want to create a copy of an existing layout, which i can do easily. However is there a way to make 30 copies without doing each one manually?
B) I have all my layouts set up the same way. Now i want to change all my 30 layouts in the page setup manager to print A4 instead of A3, and to print Landscape instead of Portrait.
Can these be done? Perhaps with some repeat scripts or something?
I'm trying to create an illustrator action that isn't functioning properly on playback. I'm using Illustrator CS5 on a Macbook. In setting up for print production of CD's and DVD's, on what's called an OMAP; I have to copy, paste and then place the image at a specific point on the artboard. Then I repeat 143 times. I'd like to create an action that pastes and moves each of the 144 disc images to the precise x and y coordinates given. I've tried creating this action through the steps outlined below, but the result of the playback is never consistent and the images end up off the artboard.
1. Copy disc image from an existing illustrator file. 2. In the action panel of my OMAP template document I create a new action, give it a name and click Record. 3. I hit command>V to paste. 4. In the transform panel I put in the x and y coordinates(Then repeat)
Update: I was able to create the action in Illustrator CS4 and playback works perfect. However, my client uses Illustrator CS 5 on a PC (as I use most of the time); and, the action will not play back properly in CS 5. I've updated both mine and their software to the latest version of CS 5 (illustrator 15.0.2 i believe) and this action still will not function right. I've tried re-creating the action in CS 5 with no success on playback. URL...
I'd like to be to select a layer groups and copy them over to another pre-existing image.
I've been struggling with this for an hour or so, and I haven't found a way to do this.
Is is possible to do this in GIMP?
The closet I've found is a kind of paste where you do this: drag the tab of the origin image over to the tab of the target image. The result is a new layer in the target image called "dropped buffer". However, the entire origin image is imported flattened.
I've been trying other drag and drop operations, but without success. Usually when I drop the selection to the target image, the icon under the mouse dissapears, and nothing actually happens.
I thought this might be a window manager problem. But I get the same results across kde, gnome and xfce.
Unfortunately I removed all my catalogus (photo's) out of LR. I do have a backupfile in my computer (windows). How can I reinstall these files/catalogus?
Note Layer > Duplicate will not work in this regard, because I want to copy one group of paths/elements from one layer to other existing layers, not to a new layer.
I have not found a command for this, nor have I found any scripts. Note I'm using CS3 but have been thinking about an upgrade.
Just had my computer cleaned out almost a virus invaded. Caught in time. My PSE 12 plug in is no longer in the "Edit In" dropdown in Lightroom 4. How do I reinstall this?
After OS10.6.8 reinstall, my LR4 edits & collections are gone. Can they be restored from Time Machine?
Background.I had a kern_protection_error, that required a complete reinstall of the MAC operating system.
All applications and the operating system was/are on a boot drive on a MAC Pro.
All images are on a master hard drives (configured as RAID).
All images and the boot drive are backed up on backup hard drives (configured as RAID).
All drives are periodically backed up using carbon copy cloner to drives kept offsight. This was done the day before the system reinstall.
Unfortunately, LR was not additionally backed up using the backup feature in LR4.
All of my lightroom edits are now gone, as well as my collections. Is there a way to restore the the edits and collections from the Time Machine backup?
I have gone to my LR 4 lrcat ("open existing catalog" from drop down menu) but have not actually relinked the images from the master hard drive, until I understand my path forward.
LR3 froze while trying to delete some images. Windows message - LR3 is not responding, Will look for a solution. Close window, I re-downloaded and twice tried to repair, I removed and re-installed. Same result.
I am trying to find a faster way to save my images. I shoot in raw, save raw images as jpegs after editing them in Camera Raw. I am using Photoshop CS6 on a Mac version 10.7.5. When I save, I either have to save as a copy of the exisiting image, or replace the image I'm working on. Other forums I've read said to make an action to save and create a function key to make this process faster, but my function keys aren't working, and playing the action I've created still makes a copy of the image.
I have a keyboard shortcut for Copy (see directly below). This command doesn't copy multiple. But if I type "Copy" at the comment prompt (AutoCAD 2013) the copy multiple is the default. Copymode is already set to "0".
I have an image which is simply a one color gradient, with transparency from nothing to something. I would like to be able to access the existing gradient on the image and change only the color. I have hunted high and low and cannot see how to do this.
(I am familiar with how to make a new gradient and how to change the colors in a saved gradient via the gradient dialogue. But for the life of me, I can't see how to access an existing gradient on an image and change only this one parameter.
I'm trying to create an all new existing surface over existing ground. I have a TIN surface of the EG, and I have drawn overlay splines that describe the new surface, but how to go about creating that design surface.
It is a compound surface, open on one end and closed all around on the other, somewhat like a half of a football stadium, but with an irregular upper edge because I am needing to figure out cuts and fills to manipulate the EG into this new surface without costly major terraforming. There is about 40-50' vertical elevation between the "field" and the upper rim with a generally constant 7-10 deg. slope all around. I'm just at a loss to figure out how to approach this project, and am quite new to Civil 3D.

I've used LR since 2.0 and upgraded easily each time. I've purchased and loaded 5.3. Clicking on LR5 icon from desktop brings up message that my catalog named "xxx".
Lightroom will create a new catalog file in the destination indicated below. The previews will also be moved to this location and converted for use in LR 5.
I click "UPGRADE" and after a few hours of watching the little green line progress across the monitor nothing works" I've done this twice and rebooted the PC.
How to overwrite an existing watermark. For instance, let's say I have a watermark called "website" with opacity of 50.
If I want to change that opacity to 60, I go to Lightroom->edit watermarks (or pick it straight from the export menu), select that watermark, and change the opacity to 60. Now I have an option to save the watermark. I don't want it to be a new one, I just want it to overwrite the existing watermark with the name "website". But when I type that name in, it says that's already in use. So now I have "website 2", "website 3", "website 4", etc which are all the same watermark with small changes, because it wouldn't let me overwrite any of them when I made a change.
I need to delete all pre existing keywords from images made by other people when importing them into my library, and no matter what I do they keep showing up.
Everything I could find here talked about one-time creation of a new 4.1 catalog rather than adding 3.6 catalog to my growing 4.1 catalog. I held off converting everything until I had some time and experiewnce with LR4.1.
Now I have a moment to breathe and can move all the 3.6 stuff to 4.1. I started using Jeffery Friedl's Flickr publish under 4.1 but not 3.6 so no publishing in 3.6. I have no self-made presets so just converting all images to Process 2012 is OK with me. (I know some images will look different.)
I've just installed LR4 and I want to change its name. Is this possible without creating a new catalog. I realize I'd have to change all the files associated with the catalog. Operating on a mac.
I used to have a huge library already imported into lightroom while all the files stored on Drobo (external HD). At some point my main computer died (HD failure). After a full reinstall of the whole system from scratch, including LR I tried to reimport the same libraries again into new the new installation. Is there a way to reuse the old import or somehow recreate it? Or I have to do it all from scratch?
I'm finding that when I export a web gallery and overwrite an existing gallery (folder) the some contents of the previous folder remains.
I'm using LR 4.3 (on a Mac) and exporting using the Turning Gate web gallery.
I choose to export a gallery that overwrites an existing gallery folder which contains folders of images labeled Photos and Thumbnails (the folders have contents). The newly exported gallery does not include any images (I choose use selected photos but have none selected). LR asks me if I want to overwrite the existing folder and I click OK.
When the new folder is opened the Photos and Thumbnails folders have the images from the previous gallery. Why would this happen if I choose to overwrite the existing folder? In other programs overwriting a folder means the whole content is being replaced, not just certain things.
In the past I've also discovered that images from previous exported galleries will remain in a folder in the above scenario even if I export a different selection from the gallery. Should I report this as a bug with LR, or is exporting like this a (mis)function of the gallery?
I've been using Bridge for a bunch of years. I have a large amount of photos. They are all keyword in Bridge. I've created a hierarchy of keyword that works quite well and evolve naturally.I have approx 16-17 TB data distributed on 7 NAS servers. Works quite well.
The big pain with Bridge is that it isn't a very coool photo-database. LR on the other hand cool work like the photo-db. LR can reference photos on NAS servers and it has search mechanism and can function as photo-db.
I have a large bunch of photos with assigned keywords. Can I import these pictures in LR and have the keyword along?
