How to import a whole folder?

When I try to import photos from a folder on my drive d:\, I have the "Navigator" on the top, then "folders." When I click on "Files", I get a list of "Features", then "files" as they are called, but it's a list of readers, among whom d:\.

Now, I try in vain to get to files on d:\.

In fact, the program starts immediately import files from another drive, since it is that which is above, on top, in the part "x copy to y", so that this auto import creates chaos in the target (all thumbs were 'ok' sign in the upper left corner, and I see the list build up in 'my own files"(Destination side).)

All this when I want to import photos from a folder (!) of d:\.

Now, when I click on the tab d:\, the program starts to import tens of thousands of photos in d:\, which means I can't just 'open' d:\ and then select a folder it contains, but my click on tab d:\ starts importing everywhere d:\, most of them unwanted.

Now there is also a small arrow to the left of the tabs, so I just click on the small arrow to 'open' just d:\, to select the folder. No chance, I always start the import by the present.

I tried with right click, with menu entries, the options with help file, with internet (2 hours), but I can't find any solution to this.

Just one time and I don't remember how I got there, I managed to topen d:\ records list, but I was unable to scroll through the list and my photo file was below the list, which means that I would have needed to scroll through the list in order to reach this folder, so I tried again , and now I never even not list, let alone this folder displays / / in fact hidden below the end of scrolling, without my power scroll.

As said, there is no help for it in the help file. It's so terrible. Could someone help me with these problems? Is not possible to select the source, and THEN trigger the import? How to select a folder, because clicking on the tabs imports the entire disk? How is it possible to access these records 'hidden' behind the buttons of the readers? And when I succeed in opening this list, how to get there?

Now I agree with JimHess, you should see your list of folders on the drive d:\ on the left side of the import Panel when you single click on the drive d:\ in the Panel on the left of import. We really need to see what you see to help others, like what you describe under option 1 is not what happens on my computer. In fact, I tried to reproduce your situation with regard to option 1 and can't make it automatically import everything on the drive just by clicking on the drive in the import Panel.

Now... a wild guess... you have the box next to "Include subfolders" checked? If so, when you click the drive D:\, you will see all of your photos that appear in the dialog box import... but this does not mean that they are imported! (Forgive me if you know this, as I said this is a wild guess). They are simply displayed. So, in this case, all your photos anywhere on the disk D:\ will appear in the import dialog box (you have to scroll down to see them all of course). But as I said, they are just to be displayed and not imported. They are not imported until you click on the button import in the lower right. Here's what it looks like to me

And here's what it looks like when I uncheck "include subfolders."

And of course, this is what it looks like with the expanded D:\ disc by clicking on it, so you can see my subfolders; and I can click on any one of these subfolders and then the photos will appear in the import dialog box; and then I can choose to import all or only some of them.

Does all this work for you?

  • How to copy a whole folder?

    Greetings,

    I created a tru my network folder directly in the hub (did not use the distance function). Now I am trying to download a copy of the entire folder on a remote computer by using remote access Media Hub (ciscomediahub.com).

    I'm having a very frustrating time trying to download the entire folder. Since I have a lot of files, I can't be able to download/copy the entire folder without having to copy each file individually using the function remotely (via ciscomediahub.com).

    Can someone help me with this please?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Maybe its a problem flash adobe why you can't download large files/folders using the mediabrowser. Check out this site that addresses that the limitations of 32-bit flash adobe. As an alternative, I think you can use FTP to transfer big files/folders, just use Windows Explorer when you use FTP so that you can drag & drop or copy & paste the files/folders.

    I hope this helps.

  • How to import several pictures folders, including automatically created albums?

    Hey there,

    First of all, thank you for helping me with this one.

    I use Picasa and organize semi-automatiquement all my photos on my hard drive. Given that Picasa will be abandoned, I want to spend all my photos/videos photos. What I get is, how to import a single folder in Photos and automatically creating a photo album. But I can't do with several files because I fight with Automator. I found some tutorials intestine on the web, but not for my particular situation.

    What I did (see screenshot):

    (1) departure of workflow must be the parent folder, and Automator should go in its subfolders and take one after the other.

    (2) now I need a variable to record the name of the folder. The name of the folder must be the new name of the photo album.

    (3) the final step is to Automator to import a record after another and create a photo album with the same name as the current folder.

    If I do, I have the problem that all imported as one (without subfolders) and the name of the album is always like "... / Desktop. I couldn't find solutions to this problem. Does anyone know what I need to add to Automator to do what I want?

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thank you very much!

    Are the import of Lightroom automatically using dialogue in compact or extended mode? In extended mode, you can see a thumbnail of each picture to display in the grid, or you can zoom in for more than 1:1 if you want to check the focus. It's really not different for the viewing and selection of the image in Bridge or similar, and it's very fast.

    Thank you you are new to Lightroom, but I think that makes it all the more important get your workflow sort at this stage. Lightroom has all the tools you need to import the images in a selective way, and this is by far the fastest way. That said, I highly recommend that you import all your images in Lightroom, your edit and then delete all unwanted images - you won't see always defects with a picture at first glance, and the moment you decide you would prefer another image, you may well have formatted the memory card.

  • How to import Outlook Express 6 directories?

    I am currently using Outlook Express 6 with Microsoft Office 2003. How to copy the address book in Mozilla?

    There is no cut and paste. Simply not possible.
    There are a few changes you can make for Thunderbird to use the windows address book. See http://thunderbirdtweaks.blogspot.com.au/2013/12/windows-contacts.html

    Note that the windows address book is stored in a WAB file and you will need to move to a new computer because it does not part of Thunderbird. Later versions of Windows do import the contacts folder to the very simple windows point and click action.

  • How to import images continuously in my photo library?

    I discovered another disappointing aspect of photos. When I import images in the photos, I assumed that they would remain in the library after I deleted the temporary folder on my system. Unlike iPhoto, you can see on the pictures, but you can't do anything with them, because it looks for the original file. How to import images so that they remain in my photo library?

    Change your preferences of Photos.

    You probably disabled the option "pictures > Preferences > General: import: copy items in the photo library.

    This option must be enabled, or Photos will reference just the pictures stored outside the library in their original location.

    Make sure that this option is enabled. See Help for this Page: https://help.apple.com/photos/mac/1.0/?lang=en#/pht12e7a8015

    For photos that you imported earlier, which are always referenced outside the library, select all the pictures, then use the command "file > consolidate" to copy in the library. After that, Photos will manage them.

    original title: BOOK of ADDRESSES AND CONTACTS

    I just converted to Windows 7.  Where is my book list or contacts addresses and how to import my other computer running XP?

    Hello

    The address book in Windows XP was called user name.wab. It has been used in the Outlook Express default e-mail program. You can copy/move this file .wab to the Windows 7 system.

    In Windows 7, open Windows Explorer and navigate to the C:\Users\your name\Contacts folder.

    In the toolbar, click the import button.

    In the import dialog box, select the option of Windows address book (Outlook Express contacts) .

    Click the import button and navigate to where you saved the . WAB file.

    Select that file, and then click Open.

    This will place all the e-mail addresses in the Contacts folder. This folder will be used for e-mail programs you install.
