• Files dng catalog Lightroom 6 not supported

  After 2 days struggling with my internet connection very slow, I've finally updated OSX El Capitan JUST so I could update to Lightroom 6 so that I could import of Olympus raw files. At startup, Lightroom prompted me to update my Lightroom Catalog, but Lightroom now displays an error message whenever one of my old dng files are open. Something along the lines of "file appears not supported or damaged.

  In addition, it crashes whenever I try to import files from Olympus. so I did not win anything.

  is it possible to have another go at updating the catalog Lightroom 6, or do I just go back to Lightroom 5 and maybe forget my subscription of the CC?

  I think that this is a known problem with some devices, including your.

• Try to upgrade a PES 10 catalog Lightroom CC - problem: conversion file path problem [was: upgrade Photoshop elements catalog]

  Update 20150707:

  So I think I found the reason for the problem:

  About 60% of my files in my catalog of PES 11 are converted (or probably better: "sent") to Lightroom with a double slash "/ /" in the path of the file.

  This looks like: D:/photos/ /Keep, albums, 2002, 200212 < the rest of the way is OK >...

  Lightroom complains that it cannot find the file on the disk, probably because of the double slash.

  With more than 4,000 theses error Lightroom core dumps with a buffer overflow, probably due to the large number of error messages. Cup of the catalogue of PES 11 decline little by little I managed to identify the cause.

  The problem is that my PES 11 catalog is repaired, optimized and PES 11 think that the file is in the correct location and can open and edit it.

  So what do I do to make the two programs to understand each other with their file name conventions? ... or how to get rid of the second crime "/"?

  Thank you

  Good afternoon

  I'm trying to upgrade a PES 10 catalog Lightroom (Lightroom details below) CC - both on Windows 8.1 (details below as well)

  There are about 30,000 photos in the catalogue of PES 10. Import runs for awhile then LR CC shows a short message that it could not import all of the photos and then it is intercepted by a Windows operating system message that indicates «Lightroom has stopped working...» »

  He has imported about 3,500 photos and converted all the photos of Collections, but also in the tree of the key.

  I tried the following:

  (in PES 11)

  • optimized and repaired the catalog
  • removed all files types that LR does not support
  • removed all media offline

  (in LR cc)

  • Tried running in different compatibility modes
  • Tried running in administrator mode
  • Temporarily disabled any antivirus software

  I run LR CC successfully with a new catalog and it behaved very well through all operations. TI ROM dumps on the conversion of this catalogue. Importing photos from the catalogue above works fine hierarchy; just that it loses the key word and obviously knows no collections.

  Is there any log file indicating the element involved the conversion?

  I have to say that I love LR after a period of three weeks of the trial, but I'm not really ready to let go hold on 90% of my data meta at this stage.

  Best

  Thomas

  I found the reason, but there is no solution...

  Comments:

  The double slash ' \ ' in the path appears to be introduced with the upgrade to PSE10. I can't say how it happened, but there were about 27,000 files connected by an access path "D:\pictures\\album\portrait\image_1.jpg".

  Fortunately, I worked with this database, as in fact all files could be catalogued, modified, opened with the editor. I checked from time to time for "Missing files" and none has been identified. After I discovered the problem during the conversion of catalogue Lr, I checked the display "File Location" and none of the files with the double slash are recognized as part of the catalog. I could import into the catalog of the "location of the folder" producing duplicates:

  'D:\pictures\\album\portrait\image_1.jpg '.

  'D:\pictures\album\portrait\image_1.jpg '.

  live happily next to each other.

  I could "move" the wrong file in the thumbnail view in its original, which corrects the incorrect path. But as my collection is well distributed on a large directory structure and there is no way to sort way "thumbnail" it would be a never-ending task.

  Here are the steps I took to fix the problem. It was not as simple as it sounds by

  now and took a lot of trial and error for weeks.

  1. I made a backup of the catalog PSE10 ("File-> backup catalog..") hard disk
  2. I have 'removed' photos from their original location, so that they could not be found (as I had a distinct data reader, I just removed the drive letter in the Windows Disk Management Console)
  3. I restored the backup PSE10 ("File-> Restore Catalog... "), choose 'new place' and placed in the root of a different drive. If you do not have a spare laptop drive, you can use the "subst q: ; I had hoped to keep the structure of the root, it is easier for the PSE10 to reconnect files later, but I can't confirm that it makes a difference.
  4. After restoring PSE10 complained (thankfully!) could not find any files (27,000) with double '-', so, unlike the situation at the beginning, I could now chose "file-> reconnect-> all missing files. He tried to find the files, but he could not find them in the area returned after searching for 5 minutes for the first file. Then I reconnected a file manually and restarted the process and after 1 h PSE10 had reconnected all files without any problems, and the images appeared as well in the 'file location' display.
  5. As I wanted my files in their original location, I "return" the files in their original location by moving them in the 'File location' view, which took another 3 hours.
  6. As I was not very confident with the whole process ensuring all files have actually been part of this process, I closed 10 PSE and "reinstalled" my original tree together file pictures of the "retired" location (step 2) after you delete the files moved PSE10.
  7. I grew up PSE10 and checked for missing files, everything was still connected.
  8. Finally I re-imported the tree of the original files 'reinstalled' together again to see if something is missed, but all files have been correctly identified as duplicates. The final step was to validate "File Location" view, where are the files appears in the tree structure tight.

  Then, I did what I wanted finally to update the catalogue of PSE10 to LR6 and it worked without any problems take images and metadata across.

  Fact.

  A plea to Adobe...

  I think it would be a great idea to publish catalogues different proprietary formats (PES / LR). This

  cannot be that difficult because you must have appropriate documentation. In this case the problem could be

  solved with double '-' setting programmatically. If you think that your customers entrust their digital

  assets on your cloud, some "opening" your end would be just one...

  My Lightroom does not. It is showing the message - failed to open the Lightroom catalog called Catalog Lightroom because it is too new to be used by this version of Lightroom. You want to select a different catalog?

  It is a catalog that you created on your computer, or coming from another computer?

  If it is one that has been created on your computer, you can search your computer to see if you have two different versions of Lightroom installed. If so, then you want to open the new version of Lightroom by double-clicking its icon, and then you should be able to open the catalog.

• Previews.Irdata file catalog Lightroom, empty the cache memory Previews

  Previews.Irdata file catalog Lightroom, I have 2000 files in 8 GB in this folder.  Is it safe to delete?  Is there a better way to clear my cache Previews?

  Hi kurth,.

  No, you should not remove this folder because it contains previews of all the images in your Lightroom Catalog.

  If you remove this folder, Lightroom will start automatically re-create as you work on images in the catalog should be previews.

  If you want to optimize your catalog, you can refer to this article: How to improve and accelerate the performance of Photoshop Lightroom

• I have two catalogs - Lightroom called an and a single called Lighroom 5, both in the same folder (Mac). I used 5, but now use LR CC. Just the catalof error. Now, he wants to make me choose one to use. Which one? And then I delete the other?

  I used LR 5 for a year or so, but recently spent to LR CC has been since then problems. Earlier got the dreaded corrupt CC catalog error and had to leave the app. When I restarted I got a dialog box showing two catalogs in the same folder. One is called simply Lightroom and Lightroom 5. The dialog box wants me to choose an action. I suppose that the LR 5 is older, but do not want to make things worse. And, once I choose the right, how safely get rid of the bad? Thank you.

  Navigate to the folder that contains your catalogs and look at the dates. The one with the most recent date would be the one you use. However, if it is damaged, it will be difficult to recover. It would be better to replace it with your latest backup. You can double-click the file itself catalog, Lightroom will start and try to open this catalog. But if it is corrupt, there are not many things you can do.

  I have a PC with Lightroom 6 just installed. At the opening, it says Lightroom - opening catalog: catalog Lightroom - 2.Ircat, then a Popup comes up saying Failed Assertion and the program closes. I checked to make sure that the photos folder is under the directory of the user and the registry redirects to the right/directory of the user file. The catalogues are stored in a subdirectory of Lightroom in the photos subdirectory. You need to resolve without losing all the catalogs.

• Why is my cc lightroom so slow to load it takes 1 1/2 minutes to open

  Why is my cc lightroom so slow to load it takes 1 1/2 minutes to open

  Hi harry,.

  I had the same problem, but he found the solution by myself today.  I hope it will work for you.  Make sure that LR - CC is closed.  Start by opening the creative cloud Manager.  Click on the gear and select Preferences, then disconnect the cloud Manager.  You will get a window asking to confirm, click ok.  Back in the open again and sign creative cloud Manager.  Open LR - CC.  If you have notifications on the value, you will get a notification that the license was upheld and LR - CC opens immediately.

  I hope this helps!

• Can I move catalog Lightroom 4 C: drive to another drive? My C: drive is full on a nearly new HP Envy window 8

  Can I move catalog Lightroom 4 C: drive to another drive? My C: drive is full on a nearly new HP Envy window 8

  Yes, you would move the file catalog using your OS and then when its on the other disk, double-click it.

  You probably to move your photos too, again make using your OS and keep the same folder structure, then plug back in Lightroom by following the instructions in this article (see Figure 4): http://www.computer-darkroom.com/lr2_find_folder/find-folder-old.htm

• What influences the size of the Lightroom catalog file?

  Just a general question really...

  I often read in various forums of LR users who have tens of thousands of images in their catalog, and yet the file catalog itself is relatively low (e.g. ' I 100 000 + images in my catalog, and it is 350 MB). Personally, I have about 11 700 images in my catalog at the moment, and the catalog file is approaching the size of 8 GB (currently at about 7.69 GB) approach. To be clear, I speak more precisely here lrcat file, found not all associated State. I have resonable several copies virtual (100 for example) and added a bit of metadata (hundreds, if not thousands of keywords, GPS, legends, star ratings, flags, and so on). I also make some local adjustments for many - although certainly not close all - my photos in the develop module and have some stories quite big edition accordingly. I also have a small number of editing running services and several collections, including a number of smart collections.

  This isn't a problem for me, and I have plenty of space for the lrcat file to grow so I certainly not lose sleep. I'm just puzzled why my catalog file is (perhaps) larger than it should be.

  M

  Note: Mollysnoot has sent me his catalog, and I deep-6 a history table to develop to see what difference it has made to the size of the catalog file.

  My number a suspect must be history I think.

  You think of right. about 90% of the volume of the catalogue is the history list.

  For every person who complains that Lightroom is much slower on their windows machine, you can find a person who complains that Lightroom is much slower on their Mac and their PC. It's really hard to understand. As I said, sometimes have enabled graphic acceleration slows down really Lightroom, but in recent versions of Lightroom, which really improved to the point now I turned it on my machines and it feels certainly faster that turned it off. I have an older retina THAT MBP like you and it's pretty amazing to see how it holds up even against several with more modern machines. That said, this monster machine should be much faster operating properly said. It could be that Lightroom 12 - core CPU running might actually be faster than using the GPU. If it's windows or Mac OS should really make very little difference. If you have a persistent slow, there are a few things to try to test. One is to reset your Lightroom preferences. People have reported slowdowns on machines which have been updated several times to more recent versions of Lightroom, where sometimes a strange preference file corruption can cause very slow Lightroom behaviors. This is done by restarting Lightroom and now the shift and ALT. You should get a dialog like this one: these http://lightroomkillertips.com/something-acting-weird-try-resetting-lightroom-ccs-preferen /

  Other causes of Lightroom slow behavior specific to your case may be a hyperactive anti-virus software that renumerisations your file catalog each time you make a change, having always executed on Lightroom, review 1:1 in the background, face recognition automatic writing .xmp and several other causes of construction. It would be wise to investigate some of them.

• Lightroom very slow speed

  If my catalog has lots of photos in there - and LR is running slowly - I should start a new catalog to help my editing speed. Everything has slowed down considerably!

  Hello

  Yes you're right. Please try to uncheck the option "use graphics processor.

  Normally, Lightroom automatically checks if there is a new version available. To force the audit you can go to the Help menu and then click on "Updates" (I don't know exactly how this point is named in the English version, I work with a German version).

• Lightroom with slow mounting

  Hi guys, this is my first post cos I just got in Lightroom. This program is very good, but now I have a problem.

  I was using before, just to take a look, Lightroom on a Pc with 1.50 ghz 2 duo, 2gig of ram and hd 100giga 5200 RPM.

  After I bought a macbook pro 2.66 ghz Ram, 320hd with 7200 RPM 4days.

  My problem is that now on my mac when I need to change my photos, which means transfer all the cursor right or left (not all forcely), I notice that it is not a fluid movement (it ' s like jump from one position to another for example exposure). And if I compare with the other laptop, it doesn't (even if it is basically half power).

  I can add that on the mac my catalog is on the internal hd, with the other I put all my stuff in an external hard drive.

  I hope you can help out me. Thank you very much

  No! Absolutely not what I wanted to say! Just the minimum size requires your monitor, IE. one who is close to her (the monitor) number of pixels.

  I do 1:1 on request, and sometimes it's an entire folder, sometimes just a couple.

• Request catalog - Lightroom CC.

  Can't seem to find the answer, but maybe that I missed this.

  I shoot a number of client (portrait shoots) this year and put them in a collection where to get those to be supplied labour to those who remain and then export as high-resolution JPEG to provide to the customer.

  I now have many collections in my list of lightroom. I was wondering is there a way to export individual collections that include these changes made in Lightroom (I understand will be saved in the catalog), so that I can keep them on a separate external drive. It is mainly to free up space on the primary computer, but also allows me to keep a set of pictures of work for a specific period of time, and then something more to the collection I can bring back into Lightroom from the external hard drive.

  Hope this makes sense and I can explain it more detail if necessary.

  Thank you very much

  I think you miss how the LR catalog, and exactly what.

  The LR catalog file is just a file of database where your images are drawn in from where the images are actually stored on the hard drives connected to your system or your local area network (LAN).

  If you want to move images of your internal drive to an external drive it have no reason to export from LR and then delete them from the LR catalog file. You can simply move the external drive from within LR or using your manager program files and then reconnect them in the LR catalog.

  LR never changes the actual image file that you have edited. It stores the changes that you make in the LR catalog or if the option is checked, changes in automatic writing to XMP, it also creates an XMP file that stores also changes.

  Only when you export an image, change burn in to this file exported.
