import files created by lightroom ghosts 5

PROBLEM 5 Lightroom Import creates folders 'ghosts '. Apparently a database problem, but passes a Lr test ok integrity.

When I import the photos to C:\users\Wes\Wes Photo Files\2013\Canada & U.S..,.

Lightroom will CREATE a 'ghost' 'C:\users\Wes\Wes Photo Files\Canada & USA' folder in the folder view and add photos to this folder does not exist!snip lightroom folders Aug 13.JPG

This happened several times - on the different Destination Folders.

If you respond to this problem, please note that I have made the following:

1 checked my import settings - certainly correct and 'Union' has the value 'in a folder.

2. run "On the catalog integrity Test" before the opening of Lr and when you save before closing.

3. I tried to 'Synchronize' folder running but did not like it wants to import 818 photos! (this is the number of files in the folder 'Canada & USA' real).

4. when I try to "Show Parent folder" this database error is reported:

snip parent folder Aug 13.JPG

5. If I try to move the files to the phantom in the actual file, it reports "the file already exists at the destination.

6. I restored a backup copy of previous lrcat file, but the same problem occurs.

7. I ran chkdsk on C: - no errors and run a registry cleanup - there is problem.

' 8 as a work-around, can I move files from the ghost of '2013 TEMP' and then again ' 2013 TEMP move "toward the desired direction 2013" Canada & USA ".

ENVIRONMENT: Lr 5.0, Windows 7 64-bit, 4-core i5, 8 GB of ram.

  • Photoshop will not automatically import my file edited in Lightroom

    Can someone help me please? Photoshop is not automatically import my photos into lightroom. When I right click in LR then click to edit in PS, then make some changes in PS and save my changes in Psalm... PS does not save my tiff in LR. Nothing are usually that it's right next to the original file. He was not even at the extreme end either. However, it records in the original folder, where all the RAW files are, so now I have to import them manually into now. Is anyway to fix this?

    DIFFICULTY * 04/05/16

    (1) install Photoshop and Lightroom

    (2) cut & paste the Photoshop installation folder to any other location.

    (3) once he did move the files to a different location, open LR and go to Edition - Preferences - surface-mounted under the surface-mounted go to additional External Editor and click on the button choose. Find the Photoshop .exe (the location where you moved it) and click on choose.

    (4) an image in LR go change In French - right click and choose the second Photoshop.exe not the top one.

  • Importing Audio files in the Lightroom Catalog

    Hi, I have recently started my move from Aperture to Lightroom. It's so much more powerful, with so many parameters! But one thing that's really problematic is that Lightroom does ' t support Audio files (it doesn't video) Unlike the opening. This is crucial for my photo, video and a sound management and would like to hear if its possible or is it something that is still under construction for Lightroom?

    If you have audio annotation .wav files created by your camera for specific images (for example, .jpg and example), LR will import as a special "sidecar" files, and they will appear in the metadata Panel on the right:

    If you click the .wav file name, LR will play it.

    If you want to import, tag and search for audio files to any other format, including audio files that are not associated with a particular image, LR doesn't have this builtin ability. However, you can use the plugin to any file to import and manage these audio files.

  • How to import files in lightroom - "files cannot be read" help!

    Hello...

    tried a few forums.  Am more recent ligthroom and os operating 10.10.5.  Since I installed lightroom creative cloud I have not been able to import files.  I can get an overview of the files.  Files successfully imported on the old version of lightroom but can not yet open on new lightroom.

    So far have tried:

    Uninstall and re-inistalling

    setting preferences so they are ready to read and write - library, creative cloud, lightroom

    Import via other means (but my technical skills could be missing here).

    Would appreciate any help

    Thank you

    Thanks assani

    Appreciate the suggestion, but it didn't work.  However, it led me to a work around.  In case everyone takes up this thread: I selected the files, I tried to import directly from the SD card and then choose 'Open with' and lightroom.  It then allowed me to import.  Not the exact solution I was hoping, but at least it's a work around.

  • Importing files in Lightroom

    I recently put updated since CS2 to LightroomCC and PhotoshopCC at the same time, I bought a new computer with an operating system. While trying to import files photo from my old computer to a memory stick in Lightroom on my new computer, the files were completely scrambled in Lightroom and organized by dates rather than as I had them grouped him and identified as projects in separate files. So the photos of my son are mixed with my photography book images fine art which are scrambled upward with my creations of cards etc. Is it possible to import these files into Lightroom in which they translate exactly as I threw them on my old computer?

    You cannot use ADD when files are on a removable disk as your memory stick.

    You can (using your operating system) copy the files on your hard drive in any structure of folders that you want them to be and then using Lightroom Import using Add to keep this folder structure.

  • Are files created by Photo HDR merge into Lightroom CC/6 32 bit or 16 bit?

    I had the chance to play with Lightroom CC/6 this afternoon, probably like many of you. I am particularly excited by the HDR functionality integrated into the new version. After testing out I opened a newly created .dng of HDR in Photoshop and it is only 16-bit. I've been using Photoshop for Merge to HDR before this version of LIghtroom and was able to create incredible 32-bit files. Are the files generated by Lightroom 32-bit in nature? Is there a way to do this that I'm missing?

    Thank you.

  • Importing files Lightroom 5.7 is not possible.

    After the upgrade to Lightroom 5.7 import file is more possible, jpg or raw, or the files from panasonic, nikon or fuji. Error: "file could not be imported because they cannot be read. Same error, no question of using the card or attempt to import the hard drive connector. If the card connector is ok, because I can use it for all other operations. Im running a macbookpro with OS X 10.8.5. With LR 5.6 last week everything works fine. What the hell is that?

    Best regards

    Rabenschleuder

    Thank you very much! That s it!

    It took me a while to understand what you wanted to know, where and how to change the default setting. I do not change the preset intentionally before and I m quite sure 5.7 LR has not done. There is a slight suspicion that this was done by an OS X update. Perfectly awful!

  • Panos and HDR files lost in Lightroom

    Hi all

    I just finished editing photos for a client and that the folder contained a handful of - Pano and HDR - files that have been created in Lightroom.  I exported and shipped to the customer (* phew! *).  I then moved from one folder to another on my computer in the same hard disk, that they were imported (an internal hard drive, but not my HD operation).  Now all the panos and HDR files are GONE.  Previews are still in LR, but they have the '! ' at the top right of the thumbnail.  When I click it, it says "file not found.  You want to locate? "Who I looked everywhere and they aren't there.

    All the normal RAW files are there and all my edits seem to have been applied, it's just that the Panos and HDR files have disappeared!  Help!  Thank you!

    Well, it seems that you have encountered this bug: uploading photos on an external hard drive, lost photos

    This seems to be the first time that someone has experienced this bug where the move was between folders on the same disk.

    Like I said, just to stop mobile photos nearby, use of metadata to indicate the status of the photo.

  • Export from iPhoto files created a monster

    I'm on an old iMac 2008 Yosemite operation and loading of the LR4.  I'm transferring my files from iPhoto to LR and exported successfully to iPhoto (now ' Photo') of files in a folder that LR can recognize (although I'm not sure that I could do it again!).  The 2 problems are:

    (1) export created several versions of many images in files with size varying from double-digit KB to double digit MG; and

    (2) with the 'faces' in iPhoto, individual photos function face presented as individual files, for example, if I had a single image with 10 people in it, I found myself at least 11 files - the original, and a file of each face on the photo!  Therefore, my "Export iPhoto" folder is more 13 000 images!  I could try to eliminate some watching them in LR, but they are everywhere and do not show me to those who are the bigger (higher resolution files).

    I tried to go through the folder in the Finder and I cut it down by a 1000 files, but I'm going nuts.  Any suggestions?  Of course, I would prefer to export again and avoid this problem.  Short of that, is there a shortcut can someone suggest to find duplicates in LR and identify which are the best records of resolution?

    Thank you very much.

    Hi Chloemann,

    Greetings.

    Not very well how it is related to Lightroom, when the issue is the export of the photos app.

    Or if you have imported the files exported in Lightroom and Lightroom Catalog you have multiple copies of the same files and other similar questions?

  • Automator: Import files into pictures, delete source files

    I export images from Lightroom to a "Photos" folder only to manually right-click "share > Add Photos."

    I want Automator the party of import, who works. But I also want to trash the original file, once it has been imported, that does not work.

    Here is my configuration:

    The last 2 actions are not related. I even tried variable set > import > get variable > move to trash but Automator has been unable to get all the variables. I found this on google but my Automator does not support this feature:

    Of course, I want this action to run in the background so that whenever I have something to export from Lightroom, it will be available in the Photos without any effort on my part.

    In the Finder: Add the folder "Photos" in the "Pictures" folder

    Using Automator:

    "Get specified Finder items" Add folder "Photos".

    Check "To get the contents of the folder": repeat for each subfolder found.

    'Filter the items in the Finder.

    "Import files in the pictures."

    Then, repeat the actions:

    "Get specified Finder items" Add folder "Photos".

    Check "To get the contents of the folder": repeat for each subfolder found.

    'Filter the items in the Finder.

    Then add:

    "Move the items from the Finder to the trash.

    ⬇︎

    You could add the "Run the Applescript" action at the end of the workflow and have Automator emptying the Trash:

    AppleScript:

    the term {parameters}

    Tell application "Finder".

    empty the trash

    tell the end

    Back entrance

    end of race

    NB. You can consider the action 'Pause' after 'Import photo files' if the Photos.app is not open when the image files are exported in the folder "pictures".

  • How to recover personal files created in the folder list by e-mail

    I already created personal folders in the e-mail directory and saved invoices etc in there under company names.
    Our computer has been recently repaired and everything had to be saved and re-recorded on it again.
    When we returned there was no personal folders in the e-mail directory more. When I rang the company that fixed to the computer, they said there is no folder saved, so no for them to recover and put back on our computer.
    There are a few very important files in these folders - is possible to find?

    Re: when I rang the company that fixed to the computer, they said there is no folder saved,

    As you say not whay they were "fixing", I'm not sure what they were doing on the computer. If they have reinstalled the operating system, then the computer was wiped and everything has been removed.

    If they saved only the standard Windows folders, then they would not have saved anything another (not Windows) program data, is stored in the Appdata Roaming folders.
    AppData folders are hidden by default, but the technicians should have known this, because it is standard.

    Looks like they did not backup your Thunderbird profile, or emails.
    I came across "technicians" who have no idea that non-Windows applications to store data in the Appdata folder. So why it is always a good idea to make all of your backups yourself.

    You could ask to see what files they saved, but it is possible that they have not kept this information. If they still have this information, then you must find all of the files in this directory:
    C:\Users\Windows user name\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\Profile name\

    If they have not saved your profile and you have not kep a copy/backup of your own profile, then you have a problem.

    Therefore, the two questions you need to ask the people who fixed the computer are:
    Q1: They have completely clean the computer and reinstall the OS?
    If Yes, then you know there is nothing hid on the computer, as he wiped.

    Q2: Can they provide a copy of all records and files that they saved?
    If Yes, then you might look to see if they did to actually backup location:
    C:\Users\Windows user name\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\Profile name\
    It would prove that if they supported these files upwards and if they save them if they were really empty.

    Q3: Specifically - they do backup Appdata\Roaming folder?

    If they do not have to this backup location, then you have lost this information and can take even further with them. I don't know what the contract was with them, but if they lost your data and they're supposed to have everything backed up, so you can use.

    I suggest you check the T & C to see if they do not accept the loss of data, because it is something considered to be your responsibility. If they claim to back up all your files, then the files and folders in this location must have been backed up. Then, they could prove that those files and folders were empty.

  • 12 iTunes does not import files

    Many have had this problem, all have been resolved (apparently) allowed the format conversion with something of an iTunes or install Quicktime as autonomous, but not me.

    • iTunes 12.1.3.6 64-bit
    • QuickTime 7.7.6

    I have a huge selection of files (mp4 and m4v) video all converted iTunes yet formats over the years of hard work. All worked perfectly (as long as home sharing is not screwing around). I bought new hardware for my main computer so moved my old kit to my server to take over the functions of iTunes. As this is a "new" computer I went straight to import my old HDD to the new NAS (all the permissions granted at a time) from the iTunes library base.

    iTunes has simply nothing. I then tried to import files in various ways at different locations (local shared folder, NAS), and by various techniques (drag / move, import file, import file, open with, add automatically) none of them got the files in iTunes. "Automatically add" gave the strangest response however. I created the "not added" like there was something wrong.

    Three things, I can guarantee you:

    1. Files have been acceptable for the last 5 years in iTunes and are played regularly through the AppleTV, so no conversion is necessary at all.
    2. It's not a permissions issue, as even the local file was not imported.
    3. I can't go to 12.3.1 he simply refuses to start at all.
    4. This box is a new facility with nothing else installed except the above.

    I would like to try an older version of iTunes to see if I could get that back to normal, but I am unable to find a previous releases section (could be me).

    Does anyone have an ideas?

    For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.

    The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review other cases and a list of documents to support further down the page, in which case one of them applies.

    More information area has direct links with the current and recent buildings if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for old video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with QuickTime software or a third party.

    Your library must be affected by these measures but there are also links to the backup and recovery advice it should be necessary.

    In some cases with 64-bit systems, you may need to install the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for older video cards) and QuickTime to enable iTunes work with some videos. 32-bit users must install QuickTime.
