Lightroom crashes after 10 seconds

[davidö86550560]

I started having this problem when I updated to the newest lightroom in December 2016... I've not been able to resolve or find out why this is...

I've had correspondence with a Mr. Sunil Bhaskaran at Adobe... he has not been able to help and no longer replies

Dear Adobe, what's going on? I've been paying for Photoshop and lightroom but only been able to use Lightroom. I've been using Adobe products since the early 90's and I'm feeling quite ignored.

Why does it crash?

What's my solution?

How do I get a response from Adobe?

Yours sincerely

David

Sorry I meant...

For more help please post more information about your system.

Nothing helps

MacOS Sierra 10.12.3 (16D32)

3,5 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon E5

64 GB 1866 MHz DDR3 (had in the computer for 1.5 years, Kingston make and all are OK)

Eizo CG277 screen with AMD FirePro D500 3072 MB-grafik

Sorry, I'm a Windows user and don't have experience with Macs, So I can't help

Go to LR menu Edit> Preferences> Performance and uncheck 'Use Graphics Processor:'

[davidö86550560]

It's already unchecked... thanks anyway trshaner

[Todd Shaner · Accepted solution]

OK, two more things to try:

1) Reset LR Preferences file and then uncheck 'Use Graphics Processor again as outlined in Reply 5.

2) If still crashing try changing the display profile to Adobe RGB as outlined below.

https://www.lightroomqueen.com/articles-page/how-do-i-change-my-monitor-profile-to-check-whether-its...

If that fixes the issue your EIZO calibration software is most likely set to create ICC Version 4 and/or LUT profiles, which have been known to cause issues with LR. You'll need to set these to ICC Version 2 (not 4) and Matrix (not LUT or lookup table).

If still crashing explain in second-by-second detail everything you're doing that leads up to and causes LR to crash. Please explain what you see onscreen after the crash (spinning beachball, etc.) including screenshots of any error messages.

[davidö86550560]

None of the t2 things you've mentioned have helped...

I start LR and get about 8 seconds before the spinning beach ball starts... it doesn't stop. LR does not give any messages and I have to ''force quit'' to shut the program

...however, I've now discovered that if I leave LR ''on'' for 3 or 4 minutes it becomes ''un-crashed'' and I can go back into LR and actually use it. I've never tried to leave it ''on'' before... so this is a step in the right direction 🙂

But it's weird that it ''crashes'' then ''un-crashes''

I'll try working in LR and see if it works normally.

What version of LR are you using. Go to menu Help> System Info, click on Copy, and paste into your reply. See this post:

You're using the latest version CC 2015.9 and GPU passes Open GL test. Good!

1) Make sure LR Mobile, Address Lookup, and Face Detection are all paused as below:

2) If this doesn't fix the hang sign out and then sign in from the Creative Cloud app as outlined here:

http://lightroomkillertips.com/if-youre-having-lightroom-cc-install-issues/

3) If that doesn't work follow the below procedure to delete old install files:

Close LR

Sign Out of Creative Cloud.

Press Command-Shift-G and type /Library and hit enter.

Navigate to Application Support/Adobe

Open SLCache folder and delete all the contents.

Go back and open SLStore folder.

Delete all the contents there.

Open the Creative Cloud app again and Sign In.

Open Lightroom
