Import in Lightroom in gray

I have recently passed my image files to a Synology NAS disk, but kept my database Lightroom and associated to files on a local disk. As I made the switch, I was not able to import new files. The "Import" button is grayed out. Anyone have any ideas on what could be the issue. I restarted LR repeatedly. I even uninstalled, restarted my computer and reinstalled, but still have the same question. Any input would be greatly appreciated!  (I'll check on this post when I return to the office on Monday.)

Please rename Lightroom 6 Preferences.agprefs again and check the issue.

Let me know if the problem persists.

  • Why records are imported into Lightroom remaining gray?

    Remaining files imported into Lightroom 5 gray, why? I am a fairly experienced user of LR5 and have been using it to organize my photos for a few years now, and I've never had this problem before. It happens when I import directly from my card using a card reader and also if I download on the computer and import from there. Same result, so be it: once I have imported the photos folder arrow remains gray. I updated the folder locations and synchronized folders, and there is no change - folder stay grey arrows. What happens and how can I solve this problem?

    Thank you.

    Are the grey icons or the grey triangles? If the triangles are gray dark, it means simply that there is no subfolder in this folder. If they are light gray, it measnyou can check the triangle and see the subfolders in this folder.

    Please try and delete preview Cache.

    It is located in the same folder as the catalog in Lightroom. The name of the cache an extract ends with Previews.LRDATA and should be deleted. Not to be confused with *. LRCAT, which should not be deleted

    Default location should folder of the image.

  • If I edit a photo in Photoshop Elements, I can't re - import into Lightroom. If I open the file on my Mac, the image is present, but Lightroom is not 'see' at all.

    For some reason, does not recognize my Lightroom (Mac) 5 images in folders on my Mac I have edited in Photoshop Elements or perfect 8 effects. If I have previously imported images in a specific folder, Lightroom will show these images grayed (as usual), but will not display other images I've saved later in this file. Similarly, if I, say, select three images in Lightroom to use the option of Photomerge in elements, later saved image will not be recognized by Lightroom.

    I tried to move locations, record under I don't know how many different formats etc., but the problem persists. No problem importing existing images to SD card or old files on the computer.

    It's very frustrating!

    The file with the name "panorama.pds Lakes" cannot be imported into Lightroom, maybe you mean that it must have the .psd extension?

    But I really want you give me an example: Specifies the name and the extension of a picture that cannot be imported into Lightroom.

    Also, when you say that you drag the image from your desktop and LR opens, but the image does not appear, what appears? You have enabled filters (if so, please disable filters with Ctrl-L once or twice and see if the photo appears.

    Uninstalling and reinstalling are a last resort and probably a waste of time at this stage.

  • Last import in Lightroom put red cast / fog on all video clips... they can be viewed on computer without this casting

    Hello

    My last import of Lightroom to approximately 10 video clips that all have a red go up to them. Whether they are searchable in the red fog corrupted that Lightroom ask it. When I right click on the video on Lightroom "Show in Finder", each clip has no red mist. They can be viewed perfectly [without fog / cast] on the my computer as imported to Lightroom.

    Please tell us if you can,

    Thank you!

    You can reset develop settings applied to the video in the library view in section rapid development on the right sidebar (reset all). My guess is that a preset with a change in the balance of whites got applied to your video. Make sure that the popup of the white balance to develop quick says "under fire."

  • Import into Lightroom

    My photos will not appear on the left of the screen.  This is why I can't import into lightroom.  I have a new mac so just get used to it.  When I click on the photos to my albums are but the only option under 'Photos' in the table of Lightroom's 'Lightroom' but I have no pictures there that I'm just getting started!  Help!

    Hi ann-mariek,.

    You have all your images to the title of the Photos App on your mac, you must export your images out of the Photos app and save it to a specific location (internal or external hard drive), now when you browse this site under Lightroom since the import window and then you would be able to import images into Lightroom.

    Kind regards

  • Underexposed import in Lightroom.

    I have RAW Nikon D750 and import to my PC using Nikon View NX2 and photos are very good. Then import into Lightroom and they go dark by about 2 stops after a few seconds and the picture is almost ruined. they look well on to other programs. Import presets are disabled and calibration of the camera is without help. Any suggestions?

    Yes, active D-Lighting is the problem.

    When ADL is set to 'low', all processing is done in the unit, causing no problems with third-party software.

    To any one of the higher settings, half the processing of ADL is behind closed doors with the second half made in the Nikon software for post-processing. Since no third-party software reads the data from the ADL - neither knows what to do with it - result of underexposed images when not treated with the Nikon software.

  • An import to Lightroom means an automatic download to the creative cloud?

    Hi, I am puzzled because I didn't consciously choose to download one of my photographs to cloud creative (Adobe Lightroom has sent me an email informing me that the photos are waiting for me on my mobile device). I've been working and learning with Lightroom however and through this process, I imported my photos into Lightroom. Thus, an import to Lightroom means an automatic download to the creative cloud? I'm not ready ready yet to use the CC storage for any of my files yet. If they have been uploaded - how can I access remove? Gosh, it makes me nervous as I want to be in charge... your help is much appreciated...

    No, the files are not automatically sent to the creative cloud when you import them into Lightroom. In order to have images in the cloud of Adobe creative, it must create a collection in Lightroom, choose the images you want to share via Lightroom online or via Lightroom Mobile. You will have to consciously choose to share this collection before sending them to the cloud. If you have inadvertently shared a collection, it's simple stop sharing by clicking on the small icon to the left of this collection. You are in complete control of what you share and do not share in the cloud. You could take the time to watch this video. It will give you a good introduction to the functioning of Lightroom Mobile:

    Lightroom CC - go Office Mobile - An Introduction to Lightroom for mobile - YouTube

    If you want to see what so-called pictures are waiting for you, you can go to Lightroom.adobe.com and sign in with your Adobe ID and password. You will be able to see what, if any, the pictures you shared. I think that this message you have received is just a friendly reminder invites you to start using the feature. But I could be wrong.

  • I see my pictures in my camera and when I download them to the desktop, however when I go to import into Lightroom, import can never really happens and it says there are no photos to import.  They do however I am able to import them into Photoshop.

    It looks like you can be pretty new to Lightroom.  If this is the case, you will find Victoria Bampton useful books:

  • How to display without import it, because they were already imported into lightroom 5 images on my hard drive in lightroom

    I want to see the photos on my hard drive that have already been imported to lightroom.  Problem is when I open lightroom with the images that they are treated as an import and are not visible to be worked.

    The 'Haze' indicates that you use the import command to display your images. You do not have it to display images or 'open' - Import is for saving the photos in the catalog/library. Therefore, close this import - dialog box there is a Cancel button.

    You are now in the normal window of Lightroom. Press G to go on the grid, open the folders Panel in the library and the use of the library filter (Ctrl F on Windows or Cmf F on Mac).

  • I had to rebuild the computer and reinstalled the photos of cecently.  I have photos imported into Lightroom, but the parameters associated with the photos, that is to say. When they were developed, are not there.  How to import these?

    I recently had to rebuild the computer and reinstalled the photos.  I have photos imported into Lightroom, but the parameters associated with the photos, that is to say. When they were developed, are not there.  How to import these?

    Default LR stores all changes in the catalog file, not in the pictures. So if you have a backup of your original catalog you will need to copy on the newly rebuilt system and open it in LR. You will then need to recreate a link to the images in the catalog depending on where are your images and where the original LR catalogue think they are.

  • Updated Mac OS at El Cap and now I can not import into lightroom, I tried new catalog, update of the operating system, update of Lightroom CC, and resets, can someone help to troubleshoot it please?

    Need help importing raw, Lightroom photos now cannot read the files after updating to Mac OS X El Cap

    El Capitan changed the permissions on the folder that you selected in the Destination dialog to import LR area. Check out what it is and then check the permissions on it. It must be set to read + write for your username.

  • Portfolio crashes when you try to build the cover page of an image imported via Lightroom sync project.

    The title says it all.  While you can import images into a new project through Lightroom mobile sync when you try to create a cover image for the project, you can select one of the imported images, but when you try to apply the portfolio crashes.  The only way to go beyond this stage is to import them separately a jpeg.

    Another problem with imported via Lightroom photos mobile sync, it's that the display full screen obtained by double clicking on the image in the project is not centered on being right-justified display.  There seems to be no way to change this behavior.

    How to overcome those problems?

    Just tried again this morning and guess what it worked perfectly.  Only difference I can see is that Lightroom is running and who claims to be always sync when I had the problem and this morning when the problem went away Lightroom was off.  Incidentally, if you want to report bugs that you must go to the portfolio help page and ask a question.

  • new import in lightroom

    Announcing Adobe folks. I know you all work hard and try the best - like us all. For now, the new import in Lightroom is not enough work for the better is it?

    Please, please give us back the old and I would say much better import in the previus version.

    Thanks for listening

    Phillip

    Hi philslide,

    I understand your concern, and the engineering team working on the priority to the difficulty of this.

    There will be a next update of Lightroom that should solve all these problems.

    During this time if you wish, you can back to the earlier version of Lightroom: restore an earlier version of update

    Kind regards
