Hi all

Just upgraded my PC to Windows 7 64bit everything works except ....... LR. Downloaded installed fine (64bit version). Imported the catalog, file structure is there the pics are there but can I see them NO .

Downloaded the latest nvidia drivers, installed fine still cannot see pics.

Coincidently also download the latest sw for my Huey Pro, appears to run but does it correct the screens NO .

Any ideas folks?

Many thanks Chris
 
Hi Neil yes I did as I only had vista 32 on the pc before.
 
I've only got the LR3 Beta 2 on win 7 64 bit and all seems ok here :shrug:
 
Not displaying raw or jpegs, yes latest version 2.6 64 bit camera raw 5.6
 
possible color profile issue. have you calibrated the screen?

it sounds like 2 separate issues to me.. presumably you can see JPG thumbnails and preview through windows?

Tried to with huey pro, but picture remained the same, too bright and colours all wrong.
 
LR2.6 is working fine on my pc running W7 64, in fact it really flies compared to when I had XP. However mine was a new computer with a clean install so it seems likely that the problem has something to do with the upgrade from your previous OS.
 
Hi Ken

Glad yours is OK Ken but mine was not OS upgrade, clean install.
 
weird thing is I have just downloaded trial of PSE and I can see the pics no problem even though the colour is still wrong, confused!
 
I know the problems mate...got fed up in the end , I reinstalled xp pro back on mine ...got fed up looking for drivers for so many things, they said some drivers for vista were compatible, some were some wasn't ...some-things worked one week, then started playing up, I visited many pc help forums for help..went back to good old xp...I installed win 7 64 op system on wifes laptop and thats been fine , Its all down to companies not updating their drivers, for some things....they make more money, buy selling you new products ...mark.

Sorry you did not manage to resolve your issues but I have not given up yet. I suppose it may get to stage of thinking about a new graphics card:'(
 
Half way there I removed the profiles for both monitors and hay presto I can see my pics. Just going to reinstall huey to see if I can get the colours right.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts.

Worked it out - the Huey pro profiles are what was causing the problems. So much for Huey saying sw is compatible with win 7 64bit. SW, profiles removed for now. How the heck do I now calibrate the monitors?
