Cannot reconnect 'missing' photos

After you have imported all my photos of PS Elements 8, taking the default values, I was presented in the grids of the cell library to the icon broken in the corner upper rh. When running "find her lack of Photos", I got a report saying there are a few 13 678 'missing' photos. I then followed the procedure in a help file to locate missing photos, who described their last visit. However, there is no reconnection done once I've completed this process. Then, I went in PS Elements 8 and searched for one of the names of files that went 'missing '. The result showed two different pictures, in two different locations, but with the same. JPG name. I recognized the two photos as being valid, but you're wondering how to proceed with what seems to be a reason why the rating 'missing', I say that the software cannot deal with dupicate names. I certainly did not expect this 'missing' statement, so a lot of images seems there are a lot of recovery to do, perhaps in the area of renaming one of the images duplicated; for example. filename_1.jpg.

Did you see this problem, and what would you recommend to fix?

Thank you very much.

Regarding the upgrade a catalog of items to Lightroom, follow these instructions

http://TV.Adobe.com/watch/going-from-Photoshop-elements-to-Lightroom/importing-an-elements - catalog in lightroom.

Please note: If you have imported all the pictures, as you say, then this is not the right way to create a Lightroom Catalog from a catalog of items. The correct method is shown in the video.

Regarding the missing files, I really don't know what caused them, but I'm 100% sure that they were not caused by duplicate files names, that should not be a problem in organizer or Lightroom. When you say "I then followed the procedure in a help file to locate missing photos, who described their last passage", might be more accurate, exactly what is the procedure, what commands and what did the steps you use?

  • Missing files in Lightroom 5, files appear in 'Missing photos.

    I have total 27 000 photos, and 5500 of them are listed under "Missing photographs." If their records are listed in everything, there is none? to indicate that LR is not records.

    I know how to reconnect missing photos by clicking on the! and asking LR also find nearby photos.  But it does not work with the exception of the single selected photo, no other photos are located even if they are in the same folder on the hard disk.  I can do this for each of the 5500 photos separately, but it will take about 24 hours.  I'm looking for another way.  To be clear, the corresponding files are not listed in LR or are listed without one? and contain only a fraction of the photos in the folder source hard disk.

    I suspect that the reason why 'Find nearby photos' does not work is the catalog think they are in a different folder of the photo of the target.  For example, the figure shows a sequence of three adjacent "Missing pictures" in LR.  DSC08178 photo is actually in the "Viking cruise" folder on the hard disk while it is indicated as being in the 'cruise Baltic.  The pictures on each side of it are correctly displayed as being in the "Viking cruise" folder because I already spotted by clicking on the!, then their location on the hard disk WITH 'FIND the PHOTOS' NEARBY SELECTED.  Funny, these "found photos" still appear as "missing images" even if they now appear in the LR library under the folder "Viking cruise".

    In past discussions in the research, I find a common suggestion when the catalog was confusing to delete the preferences file.  I have not tried because I doubt that it will work.  I keep my photos and catalog on an external HD which I move from desktop to laptop computer, depends on the question of whether I'm at home or on a trip.  Of course, these two machines (both are Macs) is located in the preferences file, but the same problem occurs on each machine. It is difficult to imagine that the two would be has been corrupted at the same time and in the same way.  I think that it is a corruption of the catalog file itself.

    If this is true, I have a possible solution.  If someone has a better idea or think that my fixed does not work, please tell me.  But it's my idea:

    Applications to problems are several years so that the problem is as far as I KNOW recent old.  I have files of backup catalog dating back to a few months.  They have all these old photos changes.  So if I can find one of these catalog uncorrupted files, I will be removed all files EXCEPT the problem files.  Then I ONLY deletes records of problem of the current catalog.  Finally, I combine two catalogs.

    Will this work?  Are there unforeseen problems (by me)?  Is there an another, perhaps better, difficulty?

    Can't you just click right on line 'Missing Photos' under 'Catalogue', and select Remove from this temporary Collection?

    Another simple solution is to simply ignore it.

  • Problem with Find is close to missing Photos

    First of all, I saw the post where the OP posted that he renamed photos and then the ability to find nearby missing Photos wasn't working.

    I had the photos that were on a network drive and I copied pictures on a disc hard so that I can work faster.  After all my changes, I've deleted the local copy of the raw files.  I thought I could just click on the '!' icon on a single photo, and a link back to the raw file that is on my network drive.

    The problem that I am running is only the picture that I chose is related even though the ability to find nearby missing Photos is on.  I've not renamed my raw sort files.  Right now, I'm linking each file one at a time and I have to go through 130 raw files.  I just wanted to check here to see if there is another solution.

    If all goes well, I'll get one before finishing through each file one by one

    Thank you

    You can reconnect entire folders by right-clicking on the folder and selecting "Update folder location"

    However, you create your own problems here, which can easily be avoided. Editing in Lightroom is NOT faster when the photo is saved to a local drive. You will find that there is no difference noticeable photo editing on a network rather than the pictures on a local disk. So the solution in the future is simple... let the pictures on the network drive.

  • How can I recover the missing photos?

    Screen Shot 2015-11-26 at 9.09.17 p.m..pngMy total of 5 420 photos 2 821 are "missing" and I can't change them.

    Normally, if you find one, you will find a lot of missing photos in the same folder.

    Then, you can reconnect all missing photos in this folder at a time.

  • missing photos see nothing in the lightroom images 6

    Hi, I need someone's help

    I got light Room 5 and made a backup for all photos on ex player

    I have a total crash of my hard drive that I install a new lightroom cc 6 when I restore the pictures I got that name and records with missing photos pictures cannot see anything inside in the frames

    I tried to find missing pictures but without success

    I had not noticed the little exclamation point [!] next to all your thumbnails gray when I gave my notice earlier. Of course Akash is fair, because there is also an indicator of lack-photo, the gray because your original photos are not where LR think they should be and there are no previews, more, but as the original photos are gone, LR cannot calculate a new preview thumbnails and can only see the gray.

    You need to know where your photos are really, what device and the drive letter, and recreate a link for them the way assani see the answer (s).

    Pictures are not stored within LR, LR just remembers where they were when you imported the.

    Where are you located photographs, which hard drive?

    If they were on the hard drive crashed and all the contents of that hard drive have been deleted then the photos have disappeared, unless you have a backup of them and them have copied on the hard disk in the same places where they were before.

    If the photos were on an external hard drive, then the only problem is that the drive letter for this external hard drive is different now that the OS has been rebuilt and assani instructions should work.  Or you can use disk management to change the drive letter of the disk to what it was before.

    It would be useful to have the area of the Panel records expanded so that we can see where LR thinks the pictures are, C: or somewhere else.

  • iPhoto/missing Photos to iMovie ' 08 library

  • I get this message. It leads me to a page which certainly does not all missing photos.

    I get this message too. It leads me to a page which certainly does not all missing photos. There is no missing pictures throughout the project. What is happening in a number of strange bugs:

    • On a particular page, I drag a photo to share with others and he disappears and a third unrelated to photography appears in its place, which arrived with about four pictures, but not with others. Finally, I removed the odd pages and inserted brand new to work around him.
    • The pictures that I wanted to add that had disappeared and been replaced by others at random that I had to reproduce and add to the project because that drag / drop the original versions, they meet in the drawer of photos available at the bottom of the project.
    • Backgrounds not showing not chosen when in page view individual but reappear when I go back to the overview of the project

    I feel like there is something a little more complex going on that I narrowly missed an empty space. I have spent days and days on this project which is 64 pages long and do not want to lose my job!

    Can anyone help please?

    My pictures is the latest version - I have installed at El Capitan yesterday (in the hope of resolving the problem of missing funds). I'm on a Macbook Air 11 ''.

    This is a screenshot of the page, need me every time that the error dialog appears, any page, I was on when I clicked 'buy '.

    < post branched out by host >

    Since you have any other software you don't have the same problem (and if you get this message, you don't have a photo of the missing - you will find it will continue as posted)

    go through your book and check that no page has a gray background (it is an indication that a photograph is necessary for the bottom), that there are no missing pictures on the pages requiring a photo which are then covered with a photo and that all the pictures of a photo inside - yor have most certainly not a picture missing in your phpotobook

  • Facebook cannot access the photo library

    When I try (on a Macbook Pro) 'create album' or 'add photos' on the women's FB page, I can see, but cannot access its photo library.  Why?  I can, however, access the photos directory - unfortunately, uses Photo pictures are not stored there.   Apple told me that they no longer support iPhoto, but were instead switching to 'Photos '.  So that's where all the images are imported from the camera.  WTH?  It shouldn't be this difficult.

  • Find nearby missing Photos does not not LR 2015.6.1

    I renamed a bunch of photos in the same folder and of course, they were all marked with the! I did the location and made sure the box to find pictures of missing nearby has been verified.  I confirmed that one I found was the one I wanted.  The! that this photo was removed.  I tried several times more in this batch and only meet every time.  This feature worked like a charm in all iterations of LR, I have used for years.  Why is it stopped now?  I forgot something?

    When you rename them outside of Lightroom how Lr is supposed to know which file goes with which newly renamed file.  I think that only works well to find nearby missing Photos (or does that) If you go just a bunch of files, but they have their original names.  You will probably need to do this one at a time.
