Cannot add photos to regular catalog

Initially, I had no problem doing that, or in creating catalogs smart but recently, I find that after importing and editing a series of new pictures... I can't add the (or a subset selected) to a catalog?

I must have something stupid rule now, because for I try to drag a folder or a single or a set of photos of the named grid selected in the Gatalog view... I get a black circle with a line through it, on the name of the catalog and the images cannot be added to thevcatalog...

Advice on why this question has started to happen would be most appreciated.

Kind regards

JimS...

P.S. I have the. Lr5 beta installed and her to behave in the same way that Lr4.4 is now too

You cannot drag to add photos to a smart collection. To add photos to a smart collection, they must have appropriate metadata such as specified in the creation of the smart collection; or you change the smart collection.

Another common mistake is when you drag pictures to a regular collection, you must select photos in the grid and then tap the photo itself (not the gray rectangle surrounding the photo) and drag.

I hope this helps.

  • Cannot add photos to an existing album.

    try to add photos (Yes, photos on iPad) from camera roll album on iPad.  Impossible to do since the age on the photo stream. Is there a way to get around this?

  • Cannot add photos to my Gallery of photos from my PC

    Tonight I have successfully downloaded a picture from my PC to my photostream (clicked right on the photo/add to the shared album). Went to charge a second picture and all of a sudden cannot download any photo to any photostream. It manifests and all stages of work, but the pictures never appear on the stream (photostream still works fine on my phone, but nothing can be added to my PC).

    First of all, make sure that you have enough free memory on your iPhone. If there is enough memory, try resetting your device. This will not erase your data stored on that device.

  • Cannot add photo for wallpaper

    My background is all black and the usual procedures to use an image as my desktop wallpaper have no effect. There is a kind of choice, that I was given when I bought my computer that makes it all black, but whatever the setting was I don't remember and so do not know how to disable or change. A possible allusion to the problem that I discovered, is that when I have an open application and click on to show the desktop, I tried to add the background image is visible to the fraction of a second.

  • He cannot add to keyword list.

    Lightroom CC, I cannot add new keywords to the keyword list.  Dialog box works and there is no error message, but a new keyword, which is not added to the list.  I can tag a photo with a new keyword, but the new keyword does not appear in the list of keywords, and I can't get on it.

    Yes, and it works.  So looking for a metadata.  It's just not going in the keywords list.

    Thanks for the reply.  The new keyword is just not.  I tried to create a new catalog, and I managed to add a keyword, so it is not the program of LR.

    First say you "it works"? So you're saying that the keyword is just not. So it did not work. I don't understand.

    If you type the keyword in the keywords filter box and that you search on the keyword, then you should also be able to see where in the hierarchy, the key word is. Can you show us a screenshot of what happens when you type the keyword in the keywords filter area?

    It does not resemble me you do what I suggested. It seems to me that looking for photos with the keyword, which is not what I've proposed. I suggest that you find the keyword (not Photos) by typing the keyword in the keywords filter box (which search keywords in the keywords list), not not by entering a keyword in the filter bar at the top (that would be find photos). Exactly what you do?

  • How to add Photos images to iMovie or iDVD

    I have an iMac late 2009 with El Capitan 10.11.3 version.

    I can't move images from Photos to iMovie or iDVD.   Help says iPhotos use that does not contain the photos I want to spend.  Help also said cannot move photos between iPhotos and Photos.

    George

    What version of iMovie do you have? iMovie 10 shows your photo library in the media pane of the project. You can directly add pictures and videos to your film project of this component.

    iDVD will probably never been updated to be able to see the photo library. Use the file menu "file > import > Image" to import photos from a folder.

  • Cannot add a printer. Print spooler crashes. Error 0x000006be

    So, I spent several hours working on this problem and nothing seems to help.

    I have Windows Vista Ultimate SP1.  When I try to add a printer, properties of control server or anything else related to printing, I just got the error "windows cannot add a printer [or" server properties cannot be read "" "]." The local print spooler service is not running.  Please restart the spooler or restart the machine. »

    When I restart the spooler via administrative tools/services, or from the command prompt (it's supposed to be successful) attempt to add a printer again, I get the error message 'the operation cannot be completed (error 0x000006be)' and the spooler promptly crashes again.  This just started to happen suddenly, and no not because I tried to install some any printer.  If it helps, I've been using a Dell Photo Printer 720, but I used it in the past with the same system, OS and driver without problem.

    I searched for solutions in the world and so far have removed all traces of the system printer drivers in the case of a corrupted file crashes the spooler.

    So far, I have:
    1 deleted all of the printers that could be uninstalled from Add / Remove programs

    2 cleared out the Windows\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86 and Windows\system32\spool\printers\ folders

    3. suppression of the subkeys in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environments\Windows NT x86\Drivers and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers registry keys

    4 deleted default subkeys in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors registry key

    Is there something else I could do to fix this?  Is it possible that the spooler application itself has a problem?  Or have I missed something it's ruin?  Any help would be REALLY appreciated!

    Hello urrghhvista,

    Try this:

    1. click on Start> select Control Panel> in programs and features> select turn Windows features On or Off.

    2. click on sign + Print Services.

    3. Select LPD and LPR. You must remove the Internet printing Client. Restart your PC to ensure there is no error in the spooler service.

    4. try to reinstall your printer software/driver.

    Hope this helps you. Let us know anyway. Make it a great day!

    Can anyone provide any input on that?

    TIA
    Amrita

    Hi Amrita,

    You cannot add the navigation model directly modeled on the author's page, but you can add style of navigation (tree, menu, tab etc.) for the default navigation in the catalog of resources. Once you add navigation style on your page template, you can then change the default navigation for another model of navigation model by using the following steps:-

    1. in the properties of the component: tree Navigation dialog, click the settings tab.
    2. in the Navigation drop-down list, select your Navigation model.

    I hope this has answered your question.

    Kind regards
    Imran

  • File is associated with another photo in the catalog?

    Hi all

    I got LR4 running on a laptop computer and an external hard drive to store my images. I bought an imac and upgraded to 5. I also bought a new large external hard drive and copied all my images on the new drive.

    I created a new catalog and began importing images and everything was fine. Then I wanted to work on an old image and couldn't find it so plugged the old hard drive and there's DNG format.

    Now, I'm back on the mac, and most of my catalog went gray. I and exclamation mark in the corner! the nail of the thumb. It says it cannot locate the file. If I found the file nothing happens, so I try once Mithraeum locating in exactly in the same place and this time it says the file is associated with another photo in the catalog?

    My a few catalogs are a mess, I know. I don't really understand the whole import/DNG/catalog file, storage system. So I watched a tutorial on a combination of catalogs I want just one master, used on my mac, stored on my drive. So, I created a master and used catalog "import from another catalog. I've lived and all imported, so all of my images are in the new catalogue, but most of the images is still grey!

    I used the thought of plugin of duplicates which could clean it upward, but no, still the same.

    I worked on that a lot of my DNG files are on my old drive in a TEMP folder. I have to sort, move them to my new hardrive and bind them to the images? In addition, to solve the problem together "associated with another photo in the catalog.

    Then I can remove the old catalogs (such as a backup has been configured on an another new disc!) and I'm all clean and go back to sleep!

    Any help will be much appreciated and I hope to end my life of youtube tutorials!

    Thanks Mark.

  • Using Photos to add photos to iphone?

    ITunes says my photo settings changed for Photos, but when he asks me to review the parameters, he just does a synchronization of the 4 step and opens all the settings, and there is no way to back up settings by right clicking on my iphone to Itunes itself. I see not possible to add photos to my iphone in the Photos herself either (I already know how to import since my iphone but not export to this). It's particularly frustrating because I knew how to do it in itunes, and all the help I can find online talking about itunes, not the Photos OS app (I have a MacBook Pro).

    You sync photos to your iPhone via iTunes.

    Open iTunes, select what you want, sync.
