I use Lightroom on a Mac. The times I have gotten into trouble seem to be
related to the fact that I didn't realize how much processing LR does in the
background. I would shut it down when I finished what I was doing, restart
it later do more editing, shut it down, etc. until it froze.This was mostly
when I was importing a lot of old folders of photos to "load up" the
library. I think I just overloaded it a couple of times with old and new
 tasks,and the dumbest part of this behavior is that it doesn't really tell
you what it is doing. I have not had this problem on a desktop if I just
leave LR open and walk away when I'm done. I have to admit that I'm using it
less and less on my laptop.
