Lightroom 4.3 for Mac quits when using adjustment brush

[Bill Barkman]

I have an image of an Eagle sitting on a branch on a cloudy day. The eye is a bit dark because of the extended forehead. Whenever I select the Adjustment Brush to lighten the eye a bit Lightroom 4.3 quits. I have had no issues with Lightroom 3 and forward until after I upgraded to 4.3. Has anyone else had this issue and if so is there a fix? Mac OS X 10.7.3

Yes it happened to me, after chasing a solution over the various for days none worked for me I reverted back to 4.2

[Walt Roycraft]

No problem for me.
OS 10.7.5
LR4.3

4.3 is stable for me on MacOS 10.8.2.  Have you tried deleting preferences?

Same here. No crash yet on Mac OS X 10.8.2 and Lightroom 4.3.

Thanks guys.

       It would seem that there is an issue here if someone else had the problem.

       For everyone else you are running a later version of OSX. I will look into an upgrade and see what happens

Hi Just found a fix for my adjustment brush shutting me down...

     Here: http://www.lightroomforums.net/showthread.php?7023-Lightroom-adjustment-brushes-quit-working

     In a post from Victoria Brampton:
          Re: Lightroom adjustment brushes quit working

                 Christina, check the Flow and Density sliders aren't set to '.

 I had my density slider at 100. I put both flow and density to 50 and my brush is working.

This must be a known issue as the fix was posted 17 Nov 2009, 2:42 pm, odd that it has not been mentioned before.
Worked for me hope it works for you.

Hi

    May have spoke a tad too soon. I do have me Adjustment brush back but when I tried to make a second adjustment Lightroom promptly left the building! Restarted Lightroom and I was able to make my 2nd adjustment.

    So not a perfect fix but at least doable. I will still have to check out an upgrade.

Hi

      Upgrading my Mac to 10.7.5 from 10.7.3 fixed the problem.

      The adjustment brush now works as it is supposed to.
