I use CF disks and Smart Media/xd 3 cameras when you import images into Lightroom. Get weird file extensions. Appreciate the advice.

At a recent wedding, I used 3 different cameras and 2 types of media cards. A type is a standard CF 2 GB and the other is a 2 GB Smart Media/xo.  They imported with file extensions such as 001 - 3.jpg, 002 - 4.jpg, some files are named correctly, 003, 006.  That this has something to do with the help of different cameras.  How prevent you getting the or - 1-2 after a number of digital file. I'm sure there's an easy answer and I do not have something good, but it drives me crazy.

There are already files with the name you are trying to write to the disk, so Lightroom trying to do the right thing to stop overwriting of files and adds a number to the file, so it has a different name.

Be more aware of your image sequence that import you will help prevent it.

  • 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

    This happens even with pictures taken on another device, not just mine.  My daughter told me that the phone fell recently.  The yellow streak isn't nowhere elsewhere on the laptop, right on the photos in LR.

    It happens when you import new images. This pourrait indicate that the sector where the pictures are copied to is damaged. But it could be a faulty card reader or a bad cable if you connect the camera directly to the computer. It's a hardware problem. Your challenge is to figure out where this problem.

  • cannot import images into lightroom cc using Mac

    everything I try to import images of the map, I get a message that says lightroom could not read image. The card reader works because I can import pictures from another app like iPhoto.

    The most common problem for errors "failed to read", it's that your destination folder has WRITE permissions added.

    In your LR import dialog box, verify that the destination folder is where you want it to be and correctly spelt.

    Then, using the Finder, go to this folder and make sure that your username has both READ and WRITE access to this folder and its parent.

    external drive? Go to the Apple menu, select "about this Mac", click

    "System report", in the report that you get, go to hardware and select

    storage. Report what it says on your external drive to "File System" and

    whether it's writable. It looks like your external may be formatted as

    "HFS +".

  • If I bring in photos from Iphoto, I use more disk space on my hard drive. I don't want to replicate my entire file. I have 26000 photo photos in I.

    If I bring in photos from Iphoto, I use more disk space on my hard drive. I don't want to replicate my entire file. I have 26000 photo photos in I.

    You need to duplicate pictures unless you want to use the PSE as external editor for iphoto. In iphoto, your photos are stored in a library owner, which should never be marred with programs other than iphoto. Written to the iphoto library from outside iphoto is the best way to corrupt and lose all the photos it contains.

    So you can either set PSE as external editor and send the photos of in iphoto, or you export photos from iphoto to use them outside of this program.

  • I just upgraded to 4.4 and begun to use LR for the first time. I have a canon 70 d, but when I import SD card, I get an error message that LR does not recognize the files and a number of 241.

    How do LR to import my files on my SD card because it keeps telling me that it doesn't recognize the files. I have a 70 d canine and shoot in RAW and JPEG. The videos are imported but not the photos.

    Since a 70 d Canon RAW photos can be imported directly into Lightroom 4.4. You need version 5.2 or newer to do this.

    As an alternative, you can download and install the FREE Adobe DNG Converter and then use it to convert your RAW to DNG, and then import the DNG in Lightroom 4.4.

  • Photos on my Flickr account can be downloaded and imported directly into Lightroom?

    Photos on my Flickr account can be downloaded and imported directly into Lightroom?

    You can download photos from Flickr on your hard disk, and then import those in LR (a two-step process).

    If you want to then maintain the relationship between these photos in your catalog and photos on Flickr, you can use this third-party Flickr plugin. It is a little more complex to implement than the Flickr edition built-in service for LR, but she is more capable and more reliable.

  • Premiere Pro freezes when you import MTS media

    Hello everyone, I have a problem with my Premiere Pro when you import MTS media.

    Last week, I had no problem with this situation. The files are very large, 4 hours of images and about 20 GB, no problem with the import and export, not even an offset when editing.

    But for the past 4 days, I had this problem with the same videos, I try to import their dragging and everything but my guard freezing program and then crashing, I can't with other video formats, just the Multilateral trading system, I work with. I read a bunch of solutions, but they do not work for me. I tried to uninstall and install the first, but nothing. I think it had to do with the last Adobe cloud update, but I'm not sure.

    IM using Windows 10, but as I said before, this has not happened before. I don't know what to do, I hope someone can help me, please.

    Thank you all for the help, you are kind enough to help me.

    I contacted Adobe support and they told me it was a problem with the update, and it would be fixed by the following.

    What I did to just reinstall the previous version. The MTS files worked smoothly, do not freeze import.

    I appreciate your help and the time you took to answer my question.

    Thank you for everything.
