Access previously imported photos out of Lightroom 4 and add them to the collection
Hello-
This is probably a stupid question... I recently used my raw software and not Lightroom and import photos on my hard drive. now, I want to add these photos to a collection in Lightroom. I can't understand (to save my life) how in the World navigate photos in Lightroom 4, but the pictures that were already imported with other software. can anyone help? Thank you!
Here's the easiest way (in my opinion):
* Select the files in the Explorer/Finder
* drag on the grid of Lightroom (library).
review of import settings - make sure that "Add" is selected at the top of the import dialog box.
* Click on "import".

On your local HARD drive? N ° on your web server? Course
How do you know php? There are exif function that can read EXIF headers on your images. You can use it in conjunction with the functions of file system scanning of the images on your web server. If you have thousands of images, you want to index the results in a database rather than search the real-time file system.

Hi all, impossible to download the photos out of Lightroom 5 - I get a ' cannot read the message ' and 496 of the code ".". " I previously used the crd of memory and it works ok. It also displays images must be downloaded but just let me download them. This is the message I received:
The following files were not imported because they could not be read. (496)
So what I did is launching a new catalog that then wiped out all the records and traces of my previous photos!
You talk of out of the frying pan and into the fire! Can someone help me with this? I have an important project to present - I'm Freelancer and looking quite the fool.

Your old catalog is still there, use the file-> open the recent item
The error "cannot be read" indicates that the folder where your photos are to be copied in has no WRITE permission. Change your permissions on this folder.

Import: Copy Photos as Digital Negative (DNG) and add to the catalog
I am importing existing (on disk) Camera RAW (.) CR2) photos in Lightroom.
I read that it is a good idea to convert Camera RAW files to DNG, so I chose the option copy Photos as Digital Negative (DNG) and add to the catalog. I also chose to backup the files when you import on an external drive. DNG files that are created are copied into the new central repository on my hard drive where I keep all my photos that are managed by Lightroom. The original. CR2 files are left where they were originally.
I have two questions:
1. is there a justification to keep the original. Cr2 files in the old file once I converted to DNG in the new central repository?
2. When does the backup import Lightroom backup of the original. CR2, DNG format files on my external hard drive. Does make sense? If the disk containing my. How can DNG photos breaks down, I use the container backup. CR2 files if Lightroom is expected to make them. DNG ones?
Thanks for the ideas!
acresofgreen,
Of course, it is a matter of opinion, but once you've decided to switch to DNG, and you converted your CR2 files, I would empty the original CR2 on DVD files, I hope never to be looked at again. Then include your DNG in a normal backup routine that includes an external hard drive on the spot and online, the off-site source as well. The backup in place when importing is not intended to save the newly created, just DNG the imported the files themselves. In rare cases, the conversion of the DNG format has a little problem and until you have a chance to look at each image, keep the original CR2s somewhere, but not necessarily easily accessible, is logical. My backup, comments also to point 1 above.

I edited a photo in Lightroom 5 and when I exported the completed picture, she went from a 1.3 MB to a 542KB file. Everything I read says it is fine and I don't lose any resolution - but I wanted to ask the community. Thoughts?
You may not have lost any resolution... or you can understand the word "resolution" bad
Resolution isn't the file size, which are the numbers you are quoting. So the 1.3 MB changing to 542KB does not indicate a change in resolution. If you export the picture and let the box that says "Resize to Fit" disabled, so you don't waste no resolution at all, even if the file size has changed.

I have a problem check my code for Lightroom 6 help please, the site says code cannot be verified. I have an existing application of Lightroom 2 and I paid for the upgrade
If you purchased the version of LR 6 upgrade then when you install and run for the first time it asks you to Sign In. You must sign in with the same Adobe ID you used to buy it. Then once it's a window will appear asking for a serial number. In this window, you enter the serial number LR 6 What adobe sent you. Then once that went into a second serial number box will appear asking for a serial number from a previous version. Then you enter the serial number LR 2. Series LR 2 will begin with the same 4 numbers, 1160.

How long does take to load lightroom? and how to pause the download and start later?
Hi AdobeIDBailey,
The time required to download the product depends on the speed of your internet connection.
The download cannot be suspended once launched, it will stop when you are finished, or if you cancel it.
If you see it is stuck or not moving not quite so if please cancel the download and refer to the steps below and try the download again: (these steps will also increase the speed of downloading as security software can also slow your downloads)
1. turn OFF any security software or firewall installed on your machine temporarily
2 - CUT the browser protection tools or add as well as for now.
Let us know if that helps.

Lightroom 5.7: import, doesn't remember the previously imported photos
I had this problem for a while, long enough so that I don't remember in which version it was the behavior surfaced.
In short, during the import (for example, an SD card) and on the map are the pictures which had been previously imported, LR selects not only photos that are new (in other words, was not imported).
I changed my behavior to remove the SD card after I have confirmed that the photos have been saved (for off-site storage) so I don't have to deal with him on the road, but nevertheless, I prefer the appropriate behavior.
Any ideas? I've upgraded to el capitan with the latest updates.
Thank you
Mark
no difference between "all photos" and "new pictures".
Yes, it tells me that all the images shown in the grid are selected for import. That is your problem.
"All pictures/New Photos" are only a choice as thumbnails of all images on the site of the 'Source' ' show/hide '.
And you always have the option checked for - "don't import suspected duplicates?
And you always let Lightroom enough time to check your complete catalog to determine whether "duplicates" exist already by a previous import.
Is it possible that changing the names of files and metadata on previously imported files prevents LR to determine that there is a "double". (A LR guru could answer this question!)
I've never known your problem because I always download camera card and the camera allows re - format the card before using it next. So my cards still have only 'new' images.
