    This message indicates that you have not permission in writing to the destination directory.

    So:

    1. Determine the destination directory... go in the Lightroom import dialog box and note the location of this directory specified on the right side under "Destination".
    2. Go to your operating system and change the permissions on this exact directory have WRITE permission.
  • To import Photos into Lightroom

    I'm unable to import photos into lightroom on my Mac 5. It will be the first segment of unit import photos and the last bit, but leave out the middle section of photos. I thought it was because I changed the settings on my camera one day and those pictures of that day could not be imported, but it did just the same thing when I tried to import photos from my iPhone. It would incorporate pictures from October and December, but none since November. I tried to uncheck "do not import suspected duplicates", but which did not help either. I can import these pictures on my computer, but not in Lightroom. Lightroom is how I organize and classify all my photos, so it is a big problem for me. How can I fix?

  • How can I import photos into my iPad to use in photoshop touch?

    How can I import photos into my iPad to use in photoshop touch?

    I have PS Touch for Android, and I have several options that are available to me, which I'm sure most is also available to users of iOS:

    • via a connection cable of the camera, also known as an OTG cable (import from camera)
    • via cable USB (import from your computer)
    • via an application that installs wireless to your network (where you can then download your tablet from your computer)

    The first option is an accessory that I had to buy. The second option was an accessory supplied with my tablet. The third option was on the game of Google (and can be free or paid according to what you go with).

  • Importing photos into Lightroom CC

    I always had problems trying to import my photos into Lightroom. I have read many articles on it and watched many tutorials, and none of them does not seem to work for me. I'm working on a Mac OS (El Capitan) and I use the Photos App on my computer. I take photos for a living, and I want some "records" of the Photos App to import into Lightroom so I can change, so I want to save them back in the 'File' or 'Album' from the Photos App. I'm frustrated that there is no means to achieve and that Lightroom is so different from Photoshop and other items.

    If someone could help with this, I'd appreciate it greatly - thank you!

    Hi shelbys.

    Well, you cannot migrate your images directly from App Photos in Lightroom as opening.

    You export your App Photos images and save it somewhere on the machine, then Lightroom would be able to see your images and can add/import your images into the software so that you can edit them later.

    In addition, you can refer to the same discussion: Re: How do I import photos into Photos of Yosemite Mac app LightroomCC?

  • Cannot import photos into Lightroom

    I have a new macbook air. I downloaded pictures from a memory card to the laptop. They are there when I go to 'Photos' on my mac. However, when I try to import into Lightroom, nothing. Under my name, I have various applications folders, desktop, documents, pictures, etc.. But when I go in the photos, I can't find the pictures I want to import... I'm quite new to photos on mac and certainly new to Lightroom, but I'm confused as to how to include my photos under the "Source" option when I try to import into Lightroom. What I am doing wrong?

    If you upload to 'Photos' on your Mac, they will not appear in Lightroom.  Photos from Apple and Adobe Lightroom do not play well together.  You must export the images of 'Photos' in a folder on your Mac before you can import into Lightroom.

  • My 6 Lightroom cannot find pictures in my camera more so I can't import photos using Lightroom... This happened after I started using a USB 3.0 hub 4 ports.

    I have 6 Lightroom in my PC.  Now it has stopped importing photos from my camera. Nothing happens when I click on import. It happened after I used a USB 3.0 4-port hub, but now it does not find the pictures even without the hub.

  • When you import photos into Lightroom 5 take disk space?

    I store all my photos on the D drive on my PC, Lightroom 5 is installed on the C drive. When I import my pictures in my library using the Add option should they take place on the C drive and D drive? They appear to do, but I thought that they would not be using the Add option rather than move or copy. Can someone please advise?

    Thank you very much

    Stephen Cooper.

    Where your LR catalog?  If it is on your C drive, additional space only on C should be for the information added to the catalog and previews, which must be low, unless you generate 1:1 previews, which can be larger and take more space.

  • Import photos into lightroom on another machine and keep your changes.

    My hard drive has failed, but I could extract my lightroom with my pictures folder and place it on an external hard drive. Is it possible for me to import the photos in that folder in lightroom on a new machine and keep my changes I made?

    CHETNA response is good for running off LR the external drive.

    If you prefer to use an internal hard drive, simply copy the catalog and images to the new internal drive, then "relocate" images using the link of Claes.

    IAM trying to post photos of process taken in RAW of my Lumix FZ 300. Lightroom 5.7 ca't recognize the photos. Help, please

    If you are targeting on the Panasonic Lumix FZ300, the camera was first supported by Lightroom CC 2015.1 or Lightroom 6.1. It will not be supported in the version you have. You can upgrade or use the free DNG 9.1 Converter to create DNG copies that you can use with what you have now.

  • How to import photos into Lightroom?  I get an error every time.

    I tried to import pictures from my camera card, on desktop and my "photos" on my Mac.  I get an error every time which includes: not able to copy a file to the requested location.  Help, please!

    Make sure you have the destination (TO - the column on the right in the import screen) set to a location where you have write privileges on your computer. The level of the root of your hard drive is usually not writable with the standard user on mac os X configuration. Generally, you want something like the pictures folder in your home (/Users/photos) directory.
