Ball Beach LR with the import dialog box

I'm on an iMac 2009 27 inches with 8 GB of ram and Capitan was last updated.

Ive had this problem before. I open Lightroom, insert a card, go to import and BAM - death beach ball. Forever.

I actually contact them direct support of remote desktop a few weeks ago, and they changed my permissions. Maybe they got changed back incorrectly?

Now, it's even worse than before. My browser, Google Chrome, was essentially brick for a while.

any suggestions? This makes me crazy... once again

It is not LR. It's your Mac. LR doesn't have a rotation beach ball. Apple Mac OS X has a rotation beach ball when the system is more taxed. This is the sign "WAIT I am Doing Something Else".

Yes check what else is running on your system and shut it down. Check the heat of your Mac, blow out the dust. Check the integrity of the HARD disk, it might be failing.

  • images are not in the order in the import dialog box...

    use lightroom 4.3...  import photos, they are displayed in a random order in the window of IMPORT.  With previous versions of lightroom, they were always in order of file name.  It becomes much more time to select files to import into a file, if there are 2 or more jobs on a CF card (I have pictures of my kids skiing mixed with a portrait session.).  Is there a way to sort photos (by name of file, or time) before importing?  I don't know how to sort after import.

  • Cannot close the import dialog box?

    We scanned the photos of our printer in our Toshiba laptop.  The dialog box import returns to ask us to continue to import.  After clicking on OK, scanning continues.  After the picture is imported, we want to close the dialog box, but it does not close.  We can only reduce.  Then after we have the computer shutdown dialog box will disappear.  Thoughts?

    Hello

    You use any third-party application to import pictures in windows 7?

    I suggest you to change the import settings and check if it helps.

    1. connect the scanner to your computer via a USB cable and turn on the scanner.
    2. in the Autorun dialog box that appears, click on import pictures and videos using the Windows.
    3. to change the parameters that are used when importing pictures and videos, click import settings in the dialog box import pictures and videos .
    4 change one or more settings in the import settings dialog box and then click OK.
    5. click OK to restart import pictures and videos. Type a label in the box mark these images (optional) , and then click import to import your photos
    and videos using the new settings.

    Check if the import area closes after importing the photos.

    See this link:

    Also, disable any security software and check if it helps.

  • Lightroom 5.0 does not automatically open the import dialog box when the inserted memory card

    Lightroom 5.0 fails to detect the memory card and import dialog box open. It has always worked well in Lightroom 2, 3 and 4.  Same cards, same camera, same iMac using OSX 10.8.4. Manual import works OK, the card is detected fine.

    Thank you very much, this TOTALLY WORKED for me.  Win 10, LR 5.7.1.  An inserted SD card of Nikon D7000 in the SD card reader built-in to laptop and Windows automatically started both Lightroom AND automatically went straight into LR import feature.  Perfect.

    (However, if LR is already running, insert the card SD initiates not import feature, despite having turned on the required checkbox in the preferences.)  Nevertheless, it is progress!   :-)

  • small problem with the printer dialog box

    I recently added a Brother printer to my IMac and ran into a minor problem.  When I put in place using my WiFi and AirPrint, the dialog box has a convenient box for the black and white that I was able to check in one easy-to-replace step and just print in color.  However, the alarm time and the answer is a bit slow.  So, I then plugged a cable and add this version of the printer.  Now the box is missing and nothing I've been able to do, to delete and add new printer allowed me to bring that?  Any ideas on how I can get this feature practice appears in the dialog box with the printer connected to the cable?  Thank you.

    If I understand correctly, you have now two entries separated for this printer to Print & Scan? It's OK, although AirPrint is better for various reasons.

    I understand the printer takes an unacceptable amount of time to wake up to when choosing the AirPrint printer, and you want to avoid this.

    If you have added a separate entrance - one for the USB printer connected - how who you? Did you leave the print & Scan install this printer automatically on its own, or did you download and install a driver of brother separately?

  • Problem with the file dialog box

    Hello erveryone,.

    My problem is quite easy... I try to use the file of dialogue vi of NOR and its work properly, but when I select a file using the double click, the second click is detected as a click on my Panel of...

    Example, if the file I select in the local file dialog box is justa button on my Panel (under the pop - up), the action for this button is run...

    I tried to disable my front panel when you use the dialog box, but it doesn't change anything.

    Someone there had the same problem? Anyone find a solution to this problem?

    Thanks for the help,

    Fabrice

    Hmm... What's not here? When the file in the dialog selected with double-click, and then disappeared with the mouse down, so dialogue, your dialogue control receives the mouse upward:

    Double click: mouse-> mouse-> mouse downwards upwards downwards (here missing dialogue)-> the mouse upwards (you got it). Nothing wrong. Can be inconvenient in some cases.

  • How to continue rendering of the transition with the custom dialog box open

    Hello

    I'm working on a plugin for some transitions custom (currently for CS6/CC on Windows).

    I use a custom dialog (hasCustomDialog in PiPL) during the esSetup box to define the transition parameters. While the dialog box is open, first execution is suspended until the dialog box is closed.

    The problem is, if I'm fiddling with the settings I do not see the changes in the program monitor and I don't get any comment first.

    I tried to make the dialog non-blocking, but then first did not executives when I changed something in the dialog box.

    Anyone know if it is possible to maintain the dialogue and still have first actively updating the display?

    Kind regards

    Philipp Stelzer

    But I want to keep the dialog box open to see the changes directly without opening the dialog box whenever I want to change a value. Is this possible with a custom dialog?

    It is not the case.  But using the AE API with extensions of the transition, you should be able to achieve the same thing, with the effect controls panel, containing all your effects settings.

  • Copy 'News Photos' does not work in the import dialog box

    Hello

    I am a new user of lightroom on Lightroom 4.2.  When I import pictures from my SD card I usually leave copies on the map for a while so I have as a backup and also be able to see recent photos on my camera.  However whenever I go to import this card images in LR, it is by default by selecting all the photos on my SD card, even though I have selected at the top of the box to import "News photo" filter.   He always puts all my photos in the "New Photos" section, so I deselect all photos I have already imported in my catalog so I don't get duplicates.  How LR to only import photos that have not been imported bfore?

    I am aware of the option "Don't Import suspected duplicates", but this isn't the samea like what I'm looking for.   It deselects only photos that still exist in my catalog.   All the pictures I deleted my catalog are selected in the import box, as he sees no duplicates.

    Suggestions for what Miss me having LR select only the pictures that have not yet been imported this card?

    Don't know how to explain it:

    "All Photos" will show all images on the card or in the or the selected files, regardless of their "new" or "existing" status. With "Don't Import suspected duplicates" checked, the unselectable 'existing' images, all others will be selected by default. With this option disabled, all images are selectable.

    When 'Don't Import suspected double' is checked 'News Photos' show only the images that Lightroom has no current knowledge. And as we have already said, Lightroom keeps no knowledge of a picture already imported and subsequently removed... so all these files will be considered as 'new '. When 'Don't Import suspected double' is unchecked, each image on the card/folder will be considered to be 'new' and in this context, there is zero difference between "All the Photos" and "New pictures".

    I understand that your wait is that Lightroom will be remember that you previously imported, and deleted an image and therefore do not show it as 'new' again... but this isn't how it works.

  • InDesign CS5 hangs with the warning dialog box

    Hello

    Facts:

    InDesign CS5, v7.0.4

    OS X 10.7.4

    Without execution of application-font-management of third parties.

    MacBook Pro (June 2012)

    InDesign crashes in these two cases:

    1 try to remove a page whose content is. Just as the warning box appears, it is without content (just the title of 'Warning') and accidents.

    2. what package a file, as it is to warn you about the dangers of archiving policies, it does the same thing as above and crashes.

    Tried alt-opt-cmd-shift thing to restart preferences and nothing.

    I tried deleting the files of two preference directly so that they would rebuild and nothing.

    Interestingly, I have another computer running OS 10.7. 3 (as opposed to 10.7.4 the crashy) and the same InDesign CS5 7.0.4 and it works perfectly.

    Ideas? Conduit?

    Thank you

    Armin

    Our engineers have provided a workaround solution which, although potentially complex for some, should allow the full functionality.

    Essentially, we ask the people affected by this problem to put three icon files in the InDesign application file itself to skip the check for the missing API.

    Please take a look at the article just to look and see if the steps and files to work for you.

  • Creating cloud app loads then freezes with the empty dialog box.

    When I click on the application of cloud to create in the status bar or run in the menu of the application to load, then a small empty box appears with a little creative cloud logo in the middle. Nothing happens. I can't close the window and nothing does. I force the closed application.

    The system carries out a new copy of windows 8.1 and a fresh install of adobe creative cloud.

  • Move Greyed out in the import dialog box

    Hi all.  When you import files from a card compact flash (Windows 7, Lightroom 3 final) my option 'move' is grayed out, and so I can't copy or add the files during import.  I want to move so they are removed from my CF card after import, so it's very frustrating.  Any help much appreciated.

    Wade

    This is normal. The copy of the files on the card to your computer has a relatively high probability of data corruption. If files are deleted from your card until you go account that they did not have it in one piece, you have lost the.
