Change the Date Format for the previously imported items

Hi, I'm a newbie to Lightroom with 3.3 being my first experience.  I looked in quite a few threads looking for my question, so I apologize in advance if this has been discussed before.

I have recently imported/moved 45 GB of pictures in my library and changed the Format of the Date in the way that I thought that I would - I was wrong.  I imported using this format:

2011-02-02

So, I have hundreds of folders listed as:

2011 02-02 148 (pics)

2011-02-03 2 (pics)

2011-02-15 15 (pics)

2011-03-01 1 (pic)

2011-03-02 30 (pics)

etc...

I would like to look like her to have folders roots with the years, months and days then.  I guess I need to format:

2011/2011-02-02

Say that it's the right format I expected to have imported with, is there a way to change this without having to delete the catalog and import it back all my photos?

Thanks for your time

If you want the same files under a folder parent 2011 instead of all at the same level?  You can add the 2011 folder and then drag and drop in the files LR Panel to pull those records in there.

If you want years then month then the days you want the one with all the slashes - 03/02/2011

That said, it's not like you're shooting a lot, then I'd go to this subject a little differently if you have piles of records to settle.  I have a folder of 2011 and simple month folders in this (01, 02, something like that) and then I would use metadata filters to find all the photos of January and drag the photos themselves in January record and repeat for the other 11 months.  Once you have done this, you can remove empty folders of day.  For small numbers, I wouldn't worry about breaking it down into a folder per day, so in the import dialog box in the future I would just select 2011/02.  You like.

If you have changed pictures in LR yet, it would be quicker to start a new catalog and re-import and leave the LR to move them into your chosen folder structure.

  • Change the number of items in the drop-down list box when running

    I'm trying to change the number of items in one of my boxes of comobo.

    I have been through the help and this forum and have the values to within the drop-down list box change very well, but in a scenario, I want to go to three options for 2. And according to other choices to 3.

    I guess I have to use a property node but I can't understand that one.

    You can use the method to reset to zero (using an invoke node) before setting the [Strings] (after setting the value by default an empty array) or create an Xcontrol (you can see examples of LabVIEW for xcontrol).

  • DataGrid the previously selected item

    Hello

    I have a dataGrid and after change of line I need to update the previously selected line. I don't know how to catch the previously selected item (or index). On the evolution of the dataGrid event the "selectedItem" property is on the new line. I tried the 'click' event, but it is distributed after the 'change' event, so it doesn't help.

  • How to change the date format in Lightroom, when importing images?

    When you import into Lightroom, you get the following structure in Lightroom for Macintosh HD.

    Year-> Date.

    I want some level 3 like this structure.   Year-> month-> Date

    How to do this?

    Hi lennartr,

    When you import images, you can change the Date Format in "Copy as DNG, copy or move", but not in the Add box.

    On the right panel, you expand the Destination folder and change the Date Format.

    Let me know if it helps.

    Kind regards

  • Numbers automatically selects the "date format" for cells.

    Numbers automatically format selects 'date' of certain cells.

    I need "numbers."

    I want to calculate simple interest due on the amount, the interest rate and number of days.

    When I input "number" format of the result cell and calculate the amount * rate * number of days divided by 365 always automatically shows something unwanted and the format "date." Furthermore, I'm not able to change the AutoFormat ("date") in "number".  How to bypass this automatic selection?

    Thanks in advance

    Maybe you can share what, exactly, you enter in a cell.  A screenshot is also useful.

    Here's a way to do what I think you want:

    Enter amounts in cells B1, B2 and B3

    Select cell B6, and type (or copy and paste it here) the formula:

    =B2*B3*B1/365.25/100

    shortcut for this is:

    B6=B2*B3*B1/365.25/100

  • How to get the Date format for a specific date?

    May be it is inept to ask, but I'm aware of the Date.
    which appear on client - it's just that the average customer treats the date.
    Right?
    So what happens if a need to check the format to set the server to date.
    Or need to write common code indicating the date format
    on the server, it is running.

    This requirement came into my mind while using the extract method.
    Actually, I wanted to date of manipulation of the side back end.
    Let's say the time is 04:12:2012 03:05:16.
    Now, if I add 100 minutes, the result will be.
    04:12:2012 04:45:16.

    It's the requirement. Maybe there may be best way to do
    but it's the way I think now.

    Thank you.

    It's something that you don't need to know:
    you have a string containing a date or timestamp, and then he must know the format of this string and not the fornat date used by the server.
    or you have a date or timestamp, and then you can add minutes to it without knowing the format as described before.

  • Lightroom 5.7: import, doesn't remember the previously imported photos

    I had this problem for a while, long enough so that I don't remember in which version it was the behavior surfaced.

    In short, during the import (for example, an SD card) and on the map are the pictures which had been previously imported, LR selects not only photos that are new (in other words, was not imported).

    I changed my behavior to remove the SD card after I have confirmed that the photos have been saved (for off-site storage) so I don't have to deal with him on the road, but nevertheless, I prefer the appropriate behavior.

    Any ideas?   I've upgraded to el capitan with the latest updates.

    Thank you

    Mark

    no difference between "all photos" and "new pictures".

    Yes, it tells me that all the images shown in the grid are selected for import. That is your problem.

    "All pictures/New Photos" are only a choice as thumbnails of all images on the site of the 'Source' ' show/hide '.

    And you always have the option checked for - "don't import suspected duplicates?

    And you always let Lightroom enough time to check your complete catalog to determine whether "duplicates" exist already by a previous import.

    Is it possible that changing the names of files and metadata on previously imported files prevents LR to determine that there is a "double".  (A LR guru could answer this question!)

    I've never known your problem because I always download camera card and the camera allows re - format the card before using it next. So my cards still have only 'new' images.

  • How can I change the titles imported from my CD?

    I am running iTunes v 12.4.24 on a Windows 7 laptop.

    I have all my paper CD import into iTunes.

    I used to be able to modify the individual titles, especially where the divisions of the track on the CD are not quite correct.

    It seems to me have forgotten how do, or perhaps the feature has recently changed.

    Can someone tell me how to, for example, to move the last half minute of the end of a track to the beginning of the next?

    So far, I've managed to get two titles showing, one showing 03:33 and the other 04:12. They both now play, but lacking at the last minute the half or more, both play only the first 03:33. I have now lost the last half minute (39 seconds) I tried to move.

  • How to change the number of items in number to Boolean, function VI table

    Hi, I'm working on using the digital output of data acquisition to control the digital input of a DAC, and I used the Number function in Boolean table. VI to convert the number to a Boolean array. The maximum number is 4096, so it must be composed of 12 elements.

    For the description of the VI, it is said that Boolean matrix returns a table of 8, 16, 32 or 64 elements, according to the number of bytes in the whole. Therefore, I change the number of channels in the task to 16, but it still does not work. The suggesitions are greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!

    Possible reasons:

    Scripture cannot be performed because the number of data channels does not match number of channels in the task.

    When writing, provide data for all channels in the task. You can also change the task so that it contains the same number of channels as the written data.

    Number of job channels: 12
    Number of data channels : 32

    Task name: _unnamedTask<1B>

    Once you have the array of Boolean, you can resize using table tools. For example you can use the "new range" with a length of 12 to pad the table of 12 elements of Boolean values (you can also use a subset of table).
