• How to resolve the error: "lightroom could not import this catalog due to an unknown error" during an attempt of "import catalog?

  I have about 400 000 pictures of so given the high number of 15 years, I had all my photos in 6 catalogues to avoid potential problems. All photos and catalogs are in a 4 TB Seagate external hard drive. I use Adobe Lightroom 5 and I use a PC with the latest Windows Office 2013.

  I wanted to have a NEW catalogue of all my rated 1 star + photos of all years in a single catalog. So I created this I called Catalog + Star and told me the best option is to import a catalog at a time, and because there is no way to filter import them just photos now, I would like to import all the photos and then delete all the photos of UnStared. I did for the catalog of the year 2014, but in the end gave me the message: "lightroom could not import this catalog because of an unknown error. He had in fact imported about 40 k pictures of about 50 k total. I tried again and again and each time I end up with the same thing. I created a new another catalog and looked from scratch and the same ting happened: EXACT 40 k photos or JUST have been imported and others were not! When I imported catalog year 2013 of about 45 photos of k, it worked perfectly. But when I imported catalog year 2012 35 k photos, it's the same thing!

  All the tips: 1) on how to solve this problem? and (2) if there is a way better and easier to create this main catalog of all looked at them Photos of all my catalogs?

  Okay, my starting point is that LR can contain fortunately 400000 + photos, and it's a mistake to create a 1 star and catalogue as you suggest. Instead, I would recommend that you create a master catalog of all your photos, you can then question however you want - 2 stars, or a certain keyword, or with "xyz" in the title, etc.

  If you are intent on going this way, you could try a slight change in what you have done so far. Instead of trying to import a complete catalogue and then delete photos of TSE, take the 2012 and 2014 catalogs and select only the photos 1 star. Then to Export in the catalog for these items and import the 2014-1star and 2012-1star in your new catalog. Can pass the problem images that I think are the problem.

  If this does not work, or if you follow my initial advice, you're going to need identify the image where the failure occurs. You may have a corrupted image file, and replacement of your backup can be enough to solve the problem. Alternatively, it may be a corrupted in the catalog folder, and in this case, it may be sufficient to remove the image from the catalog and import it again. You can try to select everything in the catalog of 2014 and see if you can do an export as catalog, creating a 2014 clean and delete file previews of 2014 could also get rid of a potential problem. Another thing is to try exporting in the catalog for images 1-40000, then a second export as catalog images 40002 - 50 k.

  So a few things that you need to try, rather than a magic bullet and a recommendation to change the underlying meaning.

• Could not import any type of audio file in my project in AECS5 files

  I am trying to add sound effects to an animation of titles for the first time. When I tried to import a .wav file, I got this error:

  after effects error. Could not import the file (filename.wav) not taken supported filetype or extension

  I have converted the file to .mp3. Still did not work. I converted the file .aiff, wma and nothing worked.

  What is the problem? Better to simply animate in AE and sound effects of entry into first?

  Help, please!

  > Why is it better to have the project files on an external drive?

  It is best to have your operating system and the applications running a disc, your source media read on the other, and written to another export your files. In this way, the hard drive doesn't have to jump around to read and write from several different locations at the same time essentially.

  There are many tips to improve performance here, including a response to your question about proxies.

• Could not import the RAW with LR4

  I have done the trial LR4... before LR3 and 1.  Could not import raw with 4 files.  MSG comes up saying, "After files were imported not because they cannot be read."  The reason I try it is because Canon 5 d Mk III and I was told HAD to get it for the treatment of the raw with this device.  Fine imports by iphoto.  I must admit, though, as a dunce, this morning, I put in a new CF card and forgot to format... but I don't think it's because I tried a few weeks previously and had same problem with a card which has BEEN formatted.  I had with iphoto, but they import them in a file on my desktop and then import from the desktop.  Tried this time, but the import column does not appear same office option.  And when I try the end of iphoto, and it arrives at its destination, I'm going under applications, and Adobe photoshop LR 4 is grey so I can't click on it to send pictures... Help!  (PLEEEZZZ!)  Thank you!

  Oh, BTW, I downloaded DNG Converter, but have no idea how it works, don't see a help file with it, and Yes, the version of LR 4 I'm trying is 4.3.

  Quote 'Suite of files were not imported because they cannot be read.

  Make sure you have all the permissions read and write for all locations that you are trying to import the files. (for example if you try to import/copy files to a drive/folder where you have only read access, you will get this message) I think you see this message it is because before LR can read files is they must first be written/copied to the destination.

  Make sure you have full read/write access to all drives/folders, you work with.

• Could not import the music downloaded from iTunes for Windows Movie Maker.

  Could not import the music downloaded from iTunes for Windows Movie Maker.  He plays in Windows Live Movie Maker and plays on my computer.  Cannot find the codec. Tried the solution to this same question and in help.

  Hello
   
  Some audio and video file formats are not supported in Windows Movie Maker and cannot be imported. However, if you have a video or audio file that is not taken care of, you can use a non-Microsoft video editing software to convert the file into a format supported by Windows Movie Maker, and then import the video file or an audio resulting in Windows Movie Maker. Some files also require you to install a codec before you can use the files in Windows Movie Maker.
  Note: The use of third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

• Could not import raw NEF images in items 10

  Can someone help me please? I have already installed an update of the plugin and restarted my computer.

  I have a Nikon D 750, which had to be supported with the latest plugin download.

  Could not import raw NEF images in items 10

  Melissa,

  I did some googling, and it seems that your D750 needs 8.7 ACR (Adobe Camera Raw version 8.7).  My camera needs ACR 8.3, but apparently 11 elements does not support this update. I have a feeling that your 10 PES is the same (no support ACR 8.7) for your camera.

  So, we can:

  (1) use the supplied software to Nikon for RAW files, convert to jpeg, and then open in PSE,

  (2) download: free Adobe, something called a converter DNG (?) that creates a DNG file to open to post-secondary studies, or

  (3) buy a newer version of elements, where the version supported with ACR IS compatible with your camera

  I'm not sure 100% accuracy of this info, but so far, that's what I found. Personally, I do not have these options.  I want to be able to work in PSE raw, but having to spend ANOTHER $100 or so just for this feature seems wrong.

• HP Pavilion 15 laptop: Need help, PC laptop HP Pavilion 15 could not boot from USB external hard drive.

  My desktop HP Pavilion P7-1074 4.5 years computer dropped last week. Planed to get a replacement on Black Friday or the day after Christmas. But I have to run some programs inside hard drve to the desktop computer. So I have attatched hard disk dive from my desktop to my laptop HP Pavilion 15 USB port with an enclosure.

  I went into the BIOS to set the boot order to boot from USB first, but I could not get the result I expected. The laptop still start on its own hard drive. I tried all three USB ports, no one works.

  Could someone help me please?

  Hi @db69613,

  Welcome to the HP forums! It's a great way to engage, ask questions and find resolutions by working with specialists from the community of HP. I understand that you need assistance with your desktop computer HARD drive that is connected to your laptop via the USB port. I'll be happy to help you with this.

  I'm just surprised at the levels of technical knowledge and technical skills that your possession. Hats off to you for this. It was very clever of you! It has been a privilege to have shared this platform with you and work with you.

  First of all, programs of a different version or windows session will not work on another computer as it was installed on the computer of origin at this time. It is an installation and application software, to the difference of the data or information that is accessible by any computer when the hard drive is connected. It is because no software installation binds the application of this specific operating system installed on this specific to the time machine.

  If the computer does not and the hard drive is accessible, all the content (such as music, photos, videos, and other information are accessible), but the programs have been installed originally are not available and will not work on any other computer when it is connected to the outside.

  However, if the hard drive works fine, windows is correctly installed, then the same hard disk can be installed on another PC of office and some of the programs should work ideally.

  I hope this helps! Please let me know how it goes. I really hope that the issue is fixed without hassle.

  To simply say thank you, please click the "Thumbs Up" button for appreciate my efforts. If it helps, please mark this as "'Solution Accepted". " If you need more assistance let me know and I will gladly do whatever I can to help.

• import of the external drive iTunes Podcasts

  I have a large number of podcasts on an external drive, I want to put them in iTunes on my new iMac.

  I have them copied from the external hard drive in the folder PODCAST iTunes on the iMac = iTunes Media - Podcasts - iTunes - music.

  When I open iTunes and go to the PODCAST - MY PODCASTS I don't see any of the files that I copied in the Podcast folder listed above.

  Is there a way for my old podcast existing if displayed in iTunes - Podcasts instead of having to re - download everything again?

  I have iTunes 12.3.3.17

  Thank you

  I have them copied from the external hard drive in the folder PODCAST iTunes on the iMac = iTunes Media - Podcasts - iTunes - music.

  You should never directly with iTunes structure of folders or files, you'll probably mess up the database. In addition, as you discovered when you add or remove files directly, iTunes becomes not informed of these changes.

  Add files from podcast through the iTunes interface. By dragging on the sidebar of top-level lists works well. You can also use a menu to import them.

  iTunes > file > add to library.

• 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?
