Changes to the Raw files disappear when importing Images from external drive

I use three external drives to copy my files from a work of transformation. Then I delete the original work on my hard drive portable. When I need to access these files again, I usually then re - import files in lightroom and remove the external hard drive. I used this system for years without problem. Recently, I found that when I go to import files from the external hard drive, my changes are gone. .Xmp files are there and I checked to make sure that the box is checked to write the changes to the .xmp file. I narrowed down it to two possible problems. It can be a problem with the disk hard as it seems to have started when I bought two new drives (see below). I also noticed that it seems to happen to Canon. Raw CR2 files and not Nikon. Raw NEF files. If someone has had this problem or have any suggestions?

Here are the specs:

There is a good chance that the XMP files contain all your changes.

Re-entry is not a good option.

    Did someone having problems importing photos in lightroom? They are visible and when I select them and press import, I get an error message saying: could not read the files.

    Hello LB.

    In the import window please change the location to the top right.

    Also please check if you've read and a write access to the folder that you are trying to import.

    Let me know if it helps.

  • How to import images from network drive

    When you import images from local drive, the option 'Copy import' is grayed out. I don't like it, but I accept that as a software design decision. Unfortunately the check box is disabled when importing images from network share also. And that's what I don't really understand why. I have my old collection of images on the NAS server. Because the imported images are linked to the network drive, I can't use items on my laptop when I'm offline. Really to import the pictures first using Windows Explorer or someone knows a workaround solution?

    In this case, simply drag and drop all folders in my pictures on the computer laptop drive C. When everything is on the hard drive, click on to get Photos & videos from files & shirts

    Then navigate to my images, make sure that all subfolders is selected and click Open or get the media.

    Select all tags of keywords suggested and wait for the items to build stamps.

  • I can change is no longer file name when importing importing Q Leica DNG files

    I think that this happened with the update of 2015-4.  All the other RAW files of the other cameras are working properly.

    If you import a RAW + JPEG and you use "Make a second copy", a bug that prevents the name change there. Either rename once the files are imported, or find another way to make a second copy. If you do not fall into this category, send a screenshot of the error message. NOTE: you must be in the forum on a web browser to send a screenshot, not by e-mail.

  • Hard drive stuck in the RAW file system.

    So I had a problem with my slave drive being stuck in the RAW file system when I formatted my master drive. So I disconnected the slave drive and formatted the master once again and once all updates have been installed, I plugged the slave back in. He's still stuck in RAW format. I tried to use Norton Partition Magic, and he reads a BAD. Is it possible to change the same RAW to NTFS or FAT32 file system?

    The indication that the file system is RAW usually means that there is a corruption of the file system structures. How to go on recovery depends on the value you are asking about the data on the disk. If your budget of time or money is over and the data of low value or backed up.

    Go to start all programs accessories and click on the command line. When the window opens, type

    cmd
    CHKDSK D: /f /r Note: D: is the letter of the drive to check. Replace the appropriate letter.

    When the process is finished, type
    Output

    Go to my computer to see if it was repaired enough to at least get a list of directories.

    If no joy, go to the web site of the manufacturer of the disk. Looking for a utility to check the disk and make a low-level format ". Follow their instructions. After that, do a format to NTFS.

    If this fails, it is likely that the disc will need to be replaced.

    Remember, there are tools (the disk sector editors, etc.) that you can use to read and sometimes at least recover some data. It requires appropriate knowledge and considerable patience. Alternatively, there are services - quite expensive data recovery.

  • The raw files imported into LR CC disappeared after upgrade to El Capitan

    Hello

    Im a user Cannon shooting Raw (CR2) files.

    I kept my brute in retouched and external disk on my mac by LR CC.

    Recently, I upgraded my MBPR at El Capitan and the things happened. Almost all of my raw files I imported into LR disappeared.

    I can't even find raw files in the Finder.

    Meanwhile, the exported JPG files are still there. So, I'm so confused what happened... Is it Apple or LR or my external hard drive?

    Thank you very much.

    Your image files are on an external drive, they are not in Lightroom. Check your external drive for permissions issues and the format of this player. It must be in Mac OS extended (journaled) format. If it's a different format, as Windows NTFS, then you may need to Add On for OS X program to write this drive (you had such an Add On that was removed or disabled by the upgrade of the El Capitan).

    El Capitan is a new Apple Mac system running. It may or may not wear on some of the settings and add on features, you are so use to with the old version of OS X. One of them is the ability to decode, View/view, the Canon RAW file format in the Finder. But these RAW files should always be located on your drive external and displayed in the Finder with a generic icon of any type and ending with the file extension. CR2. You should tell the Finder to display file Extensions. you do this in Finder preferences.

  • How to avoid changes to the NEF file when you use Camera Raw?

    He does not have to happen, but now, when I edit a NAVE in Camera RAW file, then save it as jpg in PS6 file NAVE is also changed, so I can't undo my changes here.  How to stop this change to the NEF file?

    And if you use the bridge to eliminate all changes in the NEF file you made in ACR and return to its state choose Edition > develop settings > clear settings. (You'll notice that the marker of this image in Bridge has been removed, confirming the fact that the NAVE is back to change.)

  • Please advise: I have a problem displaying RAW files correctly on Lightroom. The thumbnails look good before the import, but once that Camera Raw is applied when importing they turn green and are cropped. I'm shooting to the CR2 format using custom white

    Unfortunately, the toolset is not so advanced that LR would prefer being able to edit my photos out there. Any suggestions as to why it cannot interpret the correct values in files? Camera Canon G15 btw.

    If you use the auto white balance setting in the camera it is remove the Green tint in the embedded preview raw file (JPEG files). LR White Balance tool is more limited in range compared to the correction of the White Balance in the camera. On your screenshot posted the tint WB slider is set to 150 (Magenta), but clearly it is not sufficient to correct the under cast of green water. You can create a custom profile of DNG to extend LR Temp WB and range of hue as shown here:

    Lightroom: Setting the white balance for underwater photography

    One of the Green images issued by export to the DNG format and open it in Adobe DNG Profile Editor. The corrections described above and then name and save the new DNG profile in below the location of the folder. Restart LR to load the new profile of the camera.

  • RAW of Nikon D7000 import fail - error: the following files were not imported because they could not be read.

    I'm on a Mac under OS X 10.11.

    I connect the camera via USB, open Adobe Photoshop Lightroom CC (2015 2.1 - Camera Raw 9.2), click on the button import and display all the. NEF files on the camera.  I check 'in the subfolder"and it by default selects 'by date' with 'Format for a Date' 2015/10 which I accept.  I then select the collection that I want to add to, define rule change in file name and click on the import button blue with all the selected photos.

    Import does not work and I get the error: the following files were not imported because they could not be read.

    I read in the forums and many people claim that this is due to a problem with file permissions.  The is not the case here.  I am logged in as myself, running Lightroom like myself (the process of Lightroom is held by me) and my entire repertoire belongs to me, including the "2015/10" record he would write in.  In addition, I can manually enter this directory and manually create and delete files and folders with no problems.

    So the foregoing proves no problem licensing insofar as the operating system and the file system is concerned, and also proves that this is a specific problem with Lightroom.  Why is it not work?  I pay several hundred dollars a year for a subscription of CC; I need this job.

    The error was due to permissions of file after all.  When you import media, must be very carefully considered defects of menu import gear - if you "subfolder" selected, look at the setting for "Destination Folder" - in my case, it was set to ""/ "."  This is the root directory, so it's obvious standard user level permissions won't allow files to be written here, or I wanted to have whatever it is put into memory.  It was particularly easy to miss because it's only a simple slash.  Once I set the destination folder to a location in my directory, import worked well.

  • The files 'disappear' when you add a period to a folder or a file name in windows through GUI

    The files 'disappear' when you add a period to a folder or a file name in windows through GUI

    I don't know if it's a bug, but certainly doesn't seem like it should be the case. I tried on both 64-bit and 32-bit on windows 7. Does not make this error on XP or vista.

    Can someone explain to me what is happening?

    To reproduce, in windows 7 make a file or folder, and THEN add a ".". (period) to the end of the name of the file and look at the file "disappear". It's still there, just need to refresh (F5) and it reappears (w/o of the annex "." because it's an illegal file naming convention).

    I tried to do the same thing but through command line and it always auto corrects names of files to the conventions, and correctly, it remains on the GUI, so I think that the problem is related to the graphical mode of name change

    I'm not an apple person.  I read on a few different forums that apple has changed what is called 'writing' in a recent update to apple.  You may need to find an Apple expert to show you how to make sure you are allowed to write to files or locations on your computer.
