Best way to sort, organize and delete the RAW files?

Hello world

I am looking for a way to simply sort through a series of close to 600 raw on a Mac files.  I'm very new to this, so bare with me :)

At first, I downloaded the raw files from my SD card in my iPhoto which led to all the files in JPEG format.  So I decided that it was no good, so I tried to put the CR2 files in an organized folder and dragging the file in the preview.  I find that the preview is verrrry slow.  I'm looking for the best way to sift through

These files and choose the best/remove the worst.  What do you recommend? I plan on changing the files in Photoshop and Lightroom.

Is there a place in Lightroom where I can get this sort of process I speak of? Or do I have to download another type of organization program offline?

Thank you

If you mean the word "out" the process of getting rid of the 'bad' images, and Yes keeping 'good' images, Lightroom can do this as many other programs.

In Lightroom, you would import the 600 images together, and when the import process is completed (this may take a few minutes or more depending on your computer), then you can scroll through each image and if you decide that it is a 'bad' image that you don't want to keep, press X, then go to the next image. Once this is done, you can delete all the photos that you have assigned X in a single action.

Other programs will probably allow you to do this "spell" faster, but I can't talk about them.

    Once they are checked, of course. If you want to keep a backup, you can move the zip file in your documents folder.

    In fact, you can delete everything in the temporary folder that is not currently in use. Best time to do this removal is immediately after the start, before launching other applications.

  • Delete the raw files only file catalog

    I have a catalog with the RAW file and its dng file appearing I want to delete only the RAW files from the catalog.  Is there an easy way to show not only the RAW files, how I can mark and remove them?  Or view files RAW and dng, but they have lumped together so I can still score only RAW files?  As it is, I have a checkered pattern which will require picking through the thumbnails one at a time and checking the RAW files for removal.n

    You can filter the raw files. If you do not see the library filter especially thumbnails press the backslash key.

    Select the text option, and in the search box, type the extension for example NEF, CR2 raw files, ARW etc.. You can then select all (Ctrl + A) and delete or remove. Delete lets erase you the images of the catalogue but keep the files in the folder on your hard disk, unless you confirm you want to delete in the trash.

  • Delete the Raw files

    Separated from this thread.

    This is the first time using a forum; Please guide me if necessary.  I need help similar to Roger Denton. Literally, thousands of "gross".jpg images are on my c drive.   Are not icons, but the images obtained from the internet.    I don't know and can't know where they are located on the c drive.  I did a test backup and all the raw jpg files went with the backup.  Is your suggestion above, "Edit: it may be temporary files to Web pages, you have seen."  Try this before you use the DEL command. "There is reason for my problem?  Thank you.  Raul

    Hello

    I think that RAW files are hidden

    1. Open Folder Options by clicking on the button start , by clicking on Control Panel, appearance and personalization, and then clicking Folder Options.
    2. Click the view tab.

    3. Under Advanced settings, click Show files and folders and then click OK.

    Were you transfer pictures from camera to pc?  There should be a DELETE option in the software used for transport.  Alternatively, you can set your camera to .jpg not .raw.

    Use IrfanView or one of these softwarees to open RAW files

    http://file.org/extension/raw

    Try to do a search for *. RAW files

    Once the search is complete, select the first Photo

    Press Ctrl + A to select all

    Press Delete

    Use IrfanView to see open RAW files

  • 6.1 Lightroom freezes when deleting the raw files or spend library module to develop the module

    I have Lightroom 6.1. I have a catalog of ~ 35 000 photos.  With my most recent import of a DSLR Nikon raw files, I'll develop and edit and try to delete some files that I don't want.  The minute I try to delete a file, the program crashes and no unhang itself until I close the program and restart.  I tried the same thing several times with different images and get the same result, most of the time.    In addition, it also pretty regularly just hangs trying to get into the develop module, after being in the library module.  It happened at a point of pure frustration because it actually eliminated my being able to do anything other than look at the imported pictures.  Anyone with a similar problem?  I had the same problem with 6.0 recently.  I have a computer standard win 8.1 with 8 MB of ram.  Have never had a problem with Lightroom and found that it is a stable program as a whole so far.  Thank you.  Gary

  • 5 Lightroom can't read and import the raw file

    I can't import my RAW files from my Nikon D750. When I try to import my SD card, I am able to see the preview, but when I try to import, I get a window that reads "the following files were imported not because they could not be read. I haven't changed anything on my camera on the LR5 parameters settings and this happened just today. I am able to transfer the files on my desk at the moment, but I can't yet import from there. I also tried reformatting the card and even tried another card so I don't think that the problem is the card or the device itself. I also do not seem to see updates that I need. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    As noted of Claes, it is almost certainly a problem with your destination set wrong in the import Panel. This happens quite easily. You get the error message is almost always due to the destination without folder do not write access. Really check your destination. This should NOT be the root of your startup for example disk level and for some reason any sometimes default Lightroom at this place and then refuses to import because the OS refuses to let you write here.

  • I have 8 items. I bought a Nikon D750 and take the Raw files. I downloaded Raw 8.8 file converter, but cannot open Raw files

    I have 8 items. For my previous Nikon D300s RAW converter worked well. Now I D750 cannot open Raw files. I downloaded lastest 8.8 Adobe Raw Converter

    Always cannot open Raw file. Get the message "Could not open as it is the wrong type" how to get the last Raw Converter to work with Elements 8? Any info gratefully received.

    You would have to buy PSE13 to do the same thing. PSE8 cannot be updated.

  • How can I check and delete the corrupted files?

    I was told that my laptop performance could be carried out by missing or corrupt files. I can't find the system check in the Panel, and it is not found when I try to kick it and run. I don't have the original recovery or installation disk disk.

    According to the page I've linked in the other post: Hard Drive16 GB (Solid State Drive Flash Module).  Solid State Drive SSD =

    You can always do another:

    Check and repair corrupt files is to open cmd in the start menu, then right click "Run as Administrator".  Then type chkdsk c: / r

    • If you get an error "Chkdsk cannot run", type in, ChkDsk runs on your next Windows startup

    Who will eventually fix any corrupt system files, but not others.  You suspect corruption in the other or all of the files, then probably the SSD is having problems.  That can be fixed with conventional methods, as far as I KNOW.  Maybe time to replace it with a new SSD or hard drive classic, if possible.  Don't know how HP implimented the SSD in the mini.

    Since there is no DVD/CD drive integrated into the unit, get an external hard drive or USB key and backs up all data that you consider important before things get worse.  You can buy 16 GB flash drives or bigger, so that would be my suggestion.  Just copy everything on a flashdrive before anything else is done.

    BTW: I found a recovery here media: http://www.computersurgeons.com/SearchProducts.aspx?sbt=hp%20mini%201030nr%20&bkm=Results#Results

    Alexandra,

    The downloader of elements module does not provide an option to filter the files imported by their type (jpg or raw). You can filter only the videos photos. I'm agree it would be an asset!

    What you can do instead:

    -use your operating system (Explorer / finder) to import files to your computer via your card reader: you can order your files to import extension (jpg, CR2, NEF,...) and select the raw files. Then use the function "Import" elements to import from "Files and folders" (which "registers" files in the catalog).

    - Or you can use the download of standard element and remove JPEG files later. Not very elegant, but it works.

    - Or you can use the function "Import" elements and choose in "Files and folders" instead of card reader or the camera, then go to the card reader. The card reader is considered to be a separate drive. You can select only the raws in the import dialog box by setting the order of the files in the file (CR2, NEF...) instead of file name extension. You select the first item, then shift click the last one. Only the raws are selected. Now, pay attention to have the box 'Copy' the o files. Otherwise, the elements would consider your photos on a removable drive. The photo files will be copied to your computer in a special subfolder 'photo of removable drives.

  • Error 13008 - deleting the .itdb files does not help. :(

    I tried to move my directory iTunes of my homedir on the SD card where I keep all my assets and, despite having (as far as I can remember anyway) set up iTunes to stop the analysis of the file homedir first, now, whenever he's trying to start I get the fearsome "unknown error 13008. All threads I've seen on how to solve this say to save and delete the .itdb files in your iTunes folder and then restart iTunes. However, when I do this, iTune recreates (on the SD card, so at least I know that he uses the right place, and that it can write to the card), then crashes with the error 13008. Same thing if I rename the folder iTunes together.

    Any suggestions? I'm on Yosemite. I'd say what version of iTunes, I'm running, but...

    I make little feeling that this has not been done in the best way initially.

    Moving a library: quick response if you use preferences by default iTunes settings: copy the folder integer iTunes (and to ensure that all of its subfolders and files) intact at the other disk, hold down the option/ALT key to start iTunes and on request to select a library select iTunes Library.itl file in the copied folder.
