Could not find iPhoto/Photos to import into Lightroom

Hi-

I'm new to Lightroom. I downloaded the creative Amazon Cloud literally last night. When I click on the "Import" button, it evokes the access to the essentially all of the files on my computer with the exception of the pictures that have been uploaded to iPhoto/photos for October 2015. I tried all means to find a link to these photos, and it's as if they don't exist to Lightroom. Outside of Lightroom, I noticed now that when I look at 'Images' in my Finder window, there are all my old photos (before 10/2015) and a file called "iPhoto library" and a file called "photo library". None of these files can be opened from the finder. If the photo is opened, all the images are there.

I feel like there is something corrupt going on behind the scenes that is bad orientation of my photos. Any advice would be much appreciated!

Right-click on the photo library, and then select "view the contents of the package. What happens will be many subfolders. One of them will be named Masters. There you will find all your images. But LR cannot access it from this file/folder of the package. You will need to copy or move the Masters folder to another location on your hard drive for LR to see.

  • Could not find the photos that I restored from the Recycle Bin

    Help, please!

    I downloaded a few holiday photo from my camera on my laptop that will new windows.

    So some of the photos deleted by mistake I entered the Recycle Bin and restore all items.

    Now, I have absolutely no idea where they are! They were originally in my images, but aren't there now (I had disconnected the camera at that time here).

    Can anyone help me find these images? Far as I can say that I have not deleted the but hell to know where they are!

    Thank you.

    Hi the photos should go to where you deleted them, but obviously not a reason any. You can try looking for them, for example, if they were of type .jpg which, in the area of research, if you see one of your photos in the list, do a right click on it and choose "open file location" to see if that helps.

    Hello

    You can export your photos from the Photos app. There is a point under file - export - export original unmodified. After that you can import them from the file system in LR.

  • Wrong number of photos to import into Lightroom 6.6

    HI :-)

    I'm new to this, so please excuse me if I make mistakes ;-)

    When I sync files in Lightroom 6.6, a wrong number of new pictures to import appears.

    If I synchronize without adding new files, LR insists that 371 new files are found. However, the files are not displayed (because they aren't there, of course) but LR keep finding these "ghosts of the files.

    How can I me LR to "forget" these files?

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    OK, as far as I know, it's what's supposed to happen when you synchronize files that have been imported from photos. County shows all photos in the folder and then, when you click on synchronize, Lightroom realizes that there is no new pictures to add, and so there is effectively nothing. If there were a few new files to add and some old files that does not need to be added, the number in the dialog box would be all the photos in the folder; and then that would be added the new files.

  • Why are all my black rotating photos to import into lightroom?

    I have been using Lightroom for over a year now and I have about 15 000 + photos. I have not had problems to import until the last update, I did. Since this recent update, when I import my card or my external hard drive, the images don't appear, then a start to disappear. I watch as the histogram developing passes from the original information to all black. I'm so confused, and I lost a whole evening time I desperately need editing. Everyone knows this? I'm working on a new Mac and using Creative Cloud Lightroom.

  • Remove photos already imported into iphoto using several libraries

    Hello

    I am running iPhoto 9.5.1 and due to the large amount of photos that I take and trying to stay organized, I have multiple iPhoto libraries. I'm in a situation where I have pictures on a card of the camera, which belong to two different libraries. When I opened one, I see all of the available import photos (as I have never imported it none of them, but want to import some of them). When I opened another library, I see some already imported and some available import (as I already imported some). At this point, I want to delete only on the map, those that were imported, so that when I open the first library, the only photos showing import, are those who are new and have never been imported in the previous library. A bit complicated, I know, but I will not reproduce in several libraries. So my question... when I see the line of photos already imported into iPhoto, is there a way to select and iPhoto just delete them camera card? I tried, but I can't seem to make it happen. If not, does anyone have another suggestion how to proceed (if all goes well simply), making sure that I don't accidentally lose pictures?

    Thank you very much in advance for any help

    rostopovitch

    It's complicated! How many photos are on the map? To really have control, I would probably want to delete the photos using the finder. But for this, you have to have a master list of what to get rid from that should be kept. I think you want to close iPhoto before deleting anything.

    Fat Cat Software has a program called iPhoto Library Manager that really made these much easier questions for me. He made comparing libraries and move photos between libraries much easier. I don't think that you can use for your problem exactly, but you would be able to load it all into a library to be sure you had everything and then move or copy photos as needed. I recommend it if you plan to keep this multiple configuration of the library. http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iPLM/

  • I had to rebuild the computer and reinstalled the photos of cecently.  I have photos imported into Lightroom, but the parameters associated with the photos, that is to say. When they were developed, are not there.  How to import these?

    I recently had to rebuild the computer and reinstalled the photos.  I have photos imported into Lightroom, but the parameters associated with the photos, that is to say. When they were developed, are not there.  How to import these?

    Default LR stores all changes in the catalog file, not in the pictures. So if you have a backup of your original catalog you will need to copy on the newly rebuilt system and open it in LR. You will then need to recreate a link to the images in the catalog depending on where are your images and where the original LR catalogue think they are.

  • If I edit a photo in Photoshop Elements, I can't re - import into Lightroom. If I open the file on my Mac, the image is present, but Lightroom is not 'see' at all.

    For some reason, does not recognize my Lightroom (Mac) 5 images in folders on my Mac I have edited in Photoshop Elements or perfect 8 effects. If I have previously imported images in a specific folder, Lightroom will show these images grayed (as usual), but will not display other images I've saved later in this file. Similarly, if I, say, select three images in Lightroom to use the option of Photomerge in elements, later saved image will not be recognized by Lightroom.

    I tried to move locations, record under I don't know how many different formats etc., but the problem persists. No problem importing existing images to SD card or old files on the computer.

    It's very frustrating!

    The file with the name "panorama.pds Lakes" cannot be imported into Lightroom, maybe you mean that it must have the .psd extension?

    But I really want you give me an example: Specifies the name and the extension of a picture that cannot be imported into Lightroom.

    Also, when you say that you drag the image from your desktop and LR opens, but the image does not appear, what appears? You have enabled filters (if so, please disable filters with Ctrl-L once or twice and see if the photo appears.

    Uninstalling and reinstalling are a last resort and probably a waste of time at this stage.

  • Impossible to install XP SP3 (could not find the file specified)

    I looked at and followed the steps described in

    Article ID: 950717 - steps to take before you install Windows XP Service Pack 3
     
    I do not have

    • Microsoft Shared Computer Toolkit
    • Pack MUI Remote Desktop Connection (RDP) 6.0 (update 925877 for Windows XP)

    I tried to install SP3 with and without my Antivirus, Antispyware and firewall running programs (several times – 4, 5, or more).  Each time, I get an error staing "could not find the specified file."  Then after being told that SP3 can not be installed and that "Windows XP has been partially updated and may not work properly", I have to restart my system.

    I also followed all the steps in this article (Article ID: 950718 - how to troubleshoot an installation fails in Windows XP Service Pack 3) and still the same thing as above.
     
    I tried to download SP3 directly from the Download Center - same results as before.
     
    I started the BITS service and tried again - same results as above.
     
    I've disabled auto updates and removed to software distribution (download renamed folder as shown) - same results as shown above.
     

    I tried to restore my system to an earlier date - 4 these attempts using different dates and set points during the last wee - ALL have failed.

    I also tried the proposals 1 to 3 in this article (Article ID: 950249-how to remove Windows XP Service Pack 3 from your computer), and none of these steps worked.

    I spent over 8 hours today and yesterday a couple just trying to solve this problem and still don't get anywhere.  I am beyond frustrated at this point.  I know that say Windows can not work properly, and I need my computer to do my job.  Any help would be appreciated.

    You could do a repair installation with a CD of Windows XP with SP3 integrated already.  However, unless this is a new installation that you have installed SP2 on so you could get then SP3 installed on it - you have obviously been broadcast for some time without a lot of fixed security and tastes and your system could very well be stripped because of this.

    You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

    When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

    -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
    -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
    -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

    You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

    1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
    2. click on the System Restore tab.
    3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
    4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
    5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

    You can control the amount of space used may or may not temporary Internet files...

    Empty the temporary Internet files and reduce the size, that it stores a size between 64 MB and 128 MB...

    -Open a copy of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
    -Select TOOLS - Internet Options.
    -On the general tab in the section 'Temporary Internet files', follow these steps:
    -Click on 'Delete the Cookies' (click OK)
    -Click on "Settings" and change the "amount of disk space to use: ' something between 64 MB and 128 MB. (There may be many more now.)
    -Click OK.
    -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).
    -Once it's done, click OK, close Internet Explorer, open Internet Explorer.
