5 Lightroom cannot see and therefore import, * some * photos (OSX Mavericks)

I'm baffled by this one. I have a small set of folders on my desktop each containing a set of photographs for a client. All have been created in the same way and at the same time. When I imported all in lightroom, I didscovered that not all photos have been imported successfully.

Further investigation showed that * some * records seems to be empty (according to Lightroom) when in fact I can see in the Finder that the photos are there. Nothing I tried could make Lightroom see these files, and the completely unexplained thing, it's that it doesn't affect that * some * records. (And, in one case, only some of the photographs in a folder.)

I have attached a few screenshots showing one of the concerned files (a) such as seen in the Finder and (b) as displayed in the area of imports to Lightroom.

If I owe you the screenshots for the next higher folder ("bluestripedress"), you would see that the finder window is the same, but this Ligtroom * fact * see all files. If someone could help diagnose it, I would be extremely grateful. I have a customer on hold for its Web site.

Kind regards

What is the file type of the images in the folder "bridesmaid"? It is not not clear on-screen turned because the files without file name extension. Is it because the Finder is set to not display them, either because the files are actually no extension? And if it is the latter, is the correction of a problem if you apply the correct file name extension?

And in the files that import correctly, these files have extensions of file name?

I'm not sure if the files need to have the correct extension for Lightroom to recognize as a file format supported, but it is something to try.

It started just happening today I've not had problems with this before. The photos I am trying to import can be see and open in a finder window

    Close LR, restart your computer and try again. I had the same thing happened to me a week ago. A new start of the OS and then do an import set.

  • 6.5 mac Lightroom cannot see some videos to import

    Hello

    I have a problem with importing video files turned on my Sony RX100iv. When I got to "import pictures and videos" I can now no longer see videos shot on this camera, unless they are a type of format (mp4 H.264 AAC). However, I previously imported videos from the same camera using different parameters (mp4 H.264 Linear PCM). In short, I used to be able to see and to import videos, now I can't.

    Previous imported videos were under Lightroom v6.3. I tried this week import new vids still use v6.3 with no luck. Updated to 6.5 thought it may work... same question.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    After hours of troubleshooting, I thought about it 2 minutes after I posted the thread...

    For all of you who were having problems like me, for some reason any Lightroom would not see all files in the folder structure created by the camera to the SD card when it is look at the SC map in the "Peripheral" to import window box. If you go down the folders on the SD card in the box "Files" of the import window, then LR will recognize/see video files in each folder separately... it just won't see them if you have the SD selected under the "Devices" area (at least for videos created by my Sony Rx100iv).

    Hope that helps someone else

  • When I send someone a document I changed if his crossing of the stuff or by adding arrows, when the customer print, it does not show my changes, I'm going through our prices so visitors cannot see and when the customer print them they can see prices?

    You probably use drawing markup tools. There are options to print with or without annotations. You can not change this.

    If you don't want them to see the prices, either remove the original document and recreate the pdf without them there or you can use the redaction tools in the full paid for version of Adobe Acrobat Pro.

    Hi Joas,

    Sony A7R II files are not supported in Lightroom 5.

    You need at least version 6.1.1 or CC2015.1.1 to access these files: supported by Adobe Camera Raw devices

    You can upgrade your program of Lightroom or Adobe DNG Converter allows you to convert raw files to DNG and import them into Lightroom.

    Kind regards

  • 5 Lightroom cannot copy files when importing catalog of PC

    Try to merge my old catalog of PC in my recent one Mac.

    I put two catalogs, then consolidated the PC catalog and media on an external drive of 3 USB (NTFS) - Catalogue Mac is on an external Firewire (Mac OS Extended journaled) drive. Two separate catalogues have been tested and were working with all accessible media.

    I imported into the catalog from the catalog Mac and previews went well, and any catalog looks fine EXCEPT that almost none of the media has copied across (about 4500 photos worth!) some have, however, no idea why, or why not, in both cases. Received an error message that says that Lightroom was unable to copy some files.

    I have so much manual cleanup, which took days, to do this without pain, I'm pretty empty such a simple thing has not worked.

    Any idea, what could be wrong and how to clean up this mess without having to go through where everything manually again, please?

    The problem sometimes is not the record you think Lightroom is writing the actual file that attempts to write to Lightroom.

    First, confirm, glancing in Lightroom, the destination folder. Do not use where you think it's supposed to be written to.

    Then change the permissions on this folder to WRITE (or read & write, everything he says)

  • Other homegroup users cannot see the pictures on Windows Photo 8.1 app

    We have a new desktop computer with Windows 8.1 and have trouble getting both me (Administrator) and my husband (another user PC) see all photos in all photo sharing folders. I read all the other assignments. I've restored the library of images with and without pictures, worked both file manager and control panel to verify that all the State say shared and two of us are included in the homegroup.  Libraries appear as files in the home group, but on the side admin (my own) photos of my husband picture library are only pictures in his personal file of photo. My two files contain only the ones I'm trying to make him see.

    However, when I view the photos on his side or my app, I don't see is our personal photos and not the other. I don't want to copy the pictures in each of our own files that we both should be able to change and move images. All images must be shared and edited and stored in a spot on the disk.

    Troubleshooting-oth sides indicate that everything goes well on both sides. Please help me shoot hard.

    Hello Goodsn,

    Thanks for posting your query on Microsoft Community forum.

    I wish to inform you that you can use the file sharing to share things on two computers. The first time that you connect to a network, you can ask if you want to find computers, devices and content on the network and automatically connect to devices such as printers and TVs. turn on this parameter prepares your PC to share files and devices on a network. It automatically sets the firewall and security settings appropriate for the type of network to which you connected. You can disable this option at any time.

    I suggest you to run the troubleshooter Homegroup if necessary provided in the following article and other measures.

    The homegroup Windows problems

    Additional information:

    As you are also aware that file-sharing is one of the best way to share files and folders between computers that are connected to a home group, work group or domain.

    If you want to use file sharing I suggest you follow the steps in the following Microsoft article.

    You can also try the steps in the following article to share files on the devices connected to the network.

    Search for computers, devices and content on your network

  • Lightroom mobile: How can I import (.dng) photos taken with my phone (Samsung S7) camera?

    I just bought a Samsung S7, which has the ability to take pictures in RAW (.dng) format, as well as JPEG versions.  These photos are stored on my phone in the storage device > DCIM > camera. I can't access these LR Mobile .dng files, only the JPEG versions.  Any suggestions?

    I googled and found this: How to activate the DNG raw image and low ISO on Galaxy S6/S6 Edge running 5.1.1 Android

    Apparently, one must be in the latest versions of lollipop and have installed the camera manual thingie to the store to play to get it. I see many references to Samsung not allowing it by default.

  • I have a problem connecting the Netgear model No. RPV3000 Extender. So I can not see my network_EXT computer and therefore cannot link to this Netgear

    I'm AT & T PACE router connected to Internet. However, I have a problem connecting the Netgear model No. RPV3000 Extender. So I can not see my network_EXT computer and therefore cannot link to this Netgear. I tried to use another network with the name of my network_ext and provide the same passkey that my router, but it was impossible to connect to the Extender.

    I would appreciate it, if I can get any suggestion/help to bind and connect to this extension of NETGear. I have WIndow7 system on my computer.

    Thank you

    Harshad João

    First, make sure that the netgear device is not a router.  An Extender is very good.  You can't have more than one router in a network.  Also make sure that if you use the router wireless integrated into your modem, the router ONLY in use.

    There is a very specific configuration for the Extender.  It should have come with detailed instructions.  If you can't find them, call Netgear for assistance.
