P: Undo function fails and applies a preset instead

Hi All,

Sorry for the trouble, this sounds like a real pain in the butt. I have not yet been able to reproduce this problem, and I'm hoping to collect some info from the folks on this thread.

- Several people have said that they're using Windows (7 and 8). I haven't seen any mention of Mac. Is anyone on this thread using Mac, or is everyone on Windows?

- One person mentioned having 996 develop presets. Can other folks on this thread tell me how many presets they have?

Thanks,
Ben

Bug still exists. Problem re-occurs 20 minutes after restarting LR

Win 7 SP1 + LR 5.3

I am not the first one report this bug and this bug is VERY annoying.

After somewhile using LR, When I press CTRL + Z, it applies a preset to the picture rather than undoing my previous move. When this bug happens. I cannont even use CTRL-Q or use the exit function on the task bar.
Yes, it is not just the problem of hotkey,it is the problem of the whole toolbar. some functions simply doesn't work, including re-do.
Restarting helps, but for a short time only, i will never know when will this ghost pop up and haunt me.
I've tried to reset the preference file a few times and follow the instruction in a previous post, the problem come back after a few days.

I just switched from lightroom 3 to lightroom 4 a few months ago, and besides lightroom 4 BEING INCREDIBLY SLOWER it was fine. Until today, when suddenly, CTRL-Z applies a random preset. And I cannot get my original image back. Even putting all the sliders back manually, I can't get my original image back. I googled it and found a ton of open discussions on it, but no solution, other than restarting lightroom. I've restarted lightroom 5 times in the past hour. This CANNOT be the only solution, especially since the last two times I restarted it, it didn't fix the problem at all. I have a ton of editing I need to do before Christmas in order to order products for clients and I need this fixed ASAP! Please help, I'm getting so frustrated.
windows 7, 64bit

When I removed a photo from the Quick Collection and then did Undo, a preset was applied to the photo. This occurred repeatedly, but after restarting LR, the problem went away. (LR 5.2RC, Windows 7 64-bit.)

ScrewAutoSync will fix it.

Sometimes when I start used presents and I try undo something (ctrl + z), LR loads immediatly a random present. but when i restart LR, ctrl+z start works in property way. Anyone have the same problem, I read it was on previous version lightroom 2. I have this problem on 3.6, 4.0 and 4.1, also version doesn't matter. Why this bug isn't fix yet.
The same problem is there: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4530223
And still noone fix this. I don't wanna buy LR 4.2 with that but. I think about aperture..

It also happens from time to time when I click File -> exit. Instead of closing Lightroom a random preset is apllied for all selected pictures.

As I exported 2000 pictures I had a preset wrongly applied in 2000 !!! pictures. I have no idea how to get rid of it. The only chance is to change it manually (2000 pictures x 4 sec = 2,2h stupid work)

This is very annoying!

Confirmed, this most annoying bug is still a problem with Lightroom 5. I currently have 996 develop presets installed.

When the undo bug appears, I have to close and reopen Lightroom to get rid of it. Starting with Lightroom 5, a crash notification pops up after closing it when this problem came up, and I just hope it's properly being closed and doesn't silently corrupt my catalog.

Problem is still present in LR5. If I cull a number of presets it 'appears' to happen less. For people with the problem how many presets are you running with? (approx)
