Hi all, anyone having a problem with LR4 not displaying your photos? Mine was working fine up untill yesterday, now it won't display any of my photos. I went to adobe's site and looked in the forums to see if this was a reported problem, which it was. The supposed fix was to install an update, which I did, and LR4 still doesn't display my photos. I'm about to switch to MAC and end all the problems!

    Do you have a screen calibrator? The only time I ever had an issue with LR display, it turned out to be my Huey. I recalibrated, and all was well. Not sure if this was a one-off or a known problem, but fwiw...

    Make sure you don't have a filter on, it could be filtering all photos

    Have you used Map. A Map filter can cause images to be not displayed, even when the filters in Library are OFF! It's a bug.

    It seems to be an issue with one of Mickeysofts updates. I formatted the HD and installed from scratch, and things worked again. Then last night/early this morning Mickeysoft decided to install a bunch of updates without notifying me. Well when I got back to the computer the screen was black, so I hit the power button and it started to boot up but never finished. I then got it to start up in safe mode and uninstalled all the updates. When I restarted, it reinstalled the updates again and computer wouldn't start up again. So I formatted the drive again and reinstalled everything again, only this time I made sure that auto updates was turned off. Now things are working again. I swear Mickeysoft is messing up their updates to screw up peoples computers so they will update the OS to the latest version.

    As far as flagging goes, I don't assign flags or any of that stuff. I don't think it had anything to do with screen calibration either. The problem didn't start until a Mickeysoft update was installed. If you go to Adobe's forum, there is people that are having problems with all, not just a few, photos not displaying. Some say it starts to happen after a certain number of photos are imported. That problem was supposed to be addressed with the RC2 update.

    No problem with my win system except lr4 is very slow loading the preview and after making a change. Cs6 is way faster for me using CR
