Import Lightroom 6 problem

HI - 6 Lightroom has suddenly stopped being able to import maps. I get a message saying roughly "could not copy files because they could not be read". The files are not corrupted; I am able to copy on the Mac and then get Lightroom to synchronize the catalog, but it is a slow and unsatisfactory workaround. I use LR 6.6 and OS 10.9.5. I use a card reader that works OK. Can anyone help? I have reset the preferences of LR, but it made no difference.

Thank you

Alex

This error is misleading. What this really means is the location of destination doesn't have permission to write to your username. Either change the permissions of reading & writing on this file to include your user name or select another folder which has permissions to read & write for your username.

  • Function Import Lightroom 5 problem

    I tested 5 Lightroom and it looks great, but the import function seems to be stupid! Even when I make a new folder in lightroom that it does not matter here, it makes a new folder in Lightroom using photos where used to be! I've lost some now because of this! It's really annoying! Or is there something I don't understand?

    I doubt that you have lost pictures, they are still somewhere import does not remove the photos. And they are still on your camera card too. Looking for operating system (or Lightroom) for photos by file name.

    It's not Adobe, instead essentially a user to user forum. I saw the first 14 supported Import Formats of video clips list. My first impression is as follows. DV-stream (.dv) here does not refer to the ability of Premiere Elements to capture DV data using a firewire connection in Premiere Elements.

    It is my understanding that the raw DV via firewire can be stored in a file with a .dv file extension. You also have these same raw DV data via firewire can be stored in container (Windows) .avi or .mov (Mac). I'd say that Adobe 'Dv-stream (.dv)' refers to the import of a file DV.dv in a Premiere Elements project with add Media/files and folders.

    However, this interpretation reveals a problem because if I take a known Dv.dv file and try to import in first items 14, 13/13.1 on Windows 10 or 7 64-bit, it will not matter and gives the message saying that the file type is not supported or the codec is missing. This same DV.dv reproduces with the VLC Player.

    The frequency of the presence of Adobe in this forum is not defined. But, perhaps personal Adobe or Premiere elements support Team can clarify the inclusion of 'DV-stream (.dv) in its list of supported import Formats. There is certainly no more DV HDV data capture firewire premiere elements Capture window elements first 13/13.1 and 14.

  • Import Sony film Lightroom DC problem

    I am an experienced user of Lightroom CC on MacBook Pro running OS X El Capitan. I have no problem to import from my Canon DSLR and various models including G16 G.

    But I have problems with my new Sony RX10 III imports. The LR advanced import dialog box detects and any fixed images on the SDXC card. But he can't find or show one of the movies.

    As a solution, I can import files and search directories on the map. I found the movies under 'Private', as well as the JPG previews and still shots. But I lost my first days of shooting movies (I reformat the card in the device after successful import and backup.)

    Is there a way to tell LR to look in all the directories of the map when importing?

    Jim

    Lightroom CC 2015.6.1

    Camera Raw 9.6

    Sony RX10 III

    -Import directly from map in LR, no other software or cables

    Apple Macbook Pro

    OS X El Capitan 10.11.6

    Thank you Jim for confirmation.

    I did some additional research and can confirm the problem on my end. To reproduce the bug, I set the video format Sony RX10 III to film "XAVC S". In this mode, the Sony camera will the MP4 in the/Private/M4ROOT/CLIP. Unfortunately, Apple Photos nor Lightroom app knows where to look XAVC S videos (in mode "Devices").

    The problem will be fixed in a future update of Lightroom. Thanks for your report.

  • Import Lightroom problem 6

    HE can't import the picture more. The import pane is empty. Are the picture located on the map I select (see them in the finder) and are not in the catalog yet. It works great so far. I have 6 Lightroom on Mac Yosemite. Purchased Lightroom a week ago. Very expensive and I am disappointed some. Opportunity before opening.

    Other parameters are not in this screenshot as if you want to add or copy.

    Suggest you to go to the copy option when importing and expand the destination Panel which should display the images in the selected folder.
    You can then switch back to the normal settings you want.

    If this does not help, could you please share the complete settings which includes other parameters as well.

  • Photo library on mac was emissions additional no duplicated and then imported into Lightroom 6 PROBLEM: all duplicates appear (capitan OSX). Help me with this please!

    I imported all my photos in photo library on macbook OSX capitan. The photos were additional emissions not duplicated using power foto and gemini. This in the photo library. After checking, I have 48,000 photos, 80,000 duplicted >. After that completely eliminate the unwanted duplicate photos I import to LR6 by drag and drop the trump card in the library. Then all photos, including the deleted ones appear.

    Any solution or another way to import? photo for mac contains all my data being sought.

    This file did you import into Lr?

    And I would say you will find the duplicate in Lr, note the file name and then search the photo library to see if you have multiple instances of this photo. You cannot use Spotlight; you will need to use another utility like find easy.

    But you are right; If you have deleted them permanently from the "recently deleted" album they should be in the trash; you could confirm that as well.

    And use 'Show in Finder' alleged images duplicated in Lr to see where the copy is stored; that should also give you an idea of why it did not work.

  • Why soon tanto en import Lightroom?

    I have a external 1 TB memoria. Solo tengo fotos carpetas y ago space 900 GB mas. ¿ESO afecta a that no can import las fotos y me diga than no tengo suficiente memoria?

    He desinstalado lightroom y lo he vuelto a instalar para ver if resolvia el problema. El caso are ahora solo puedo import only una las carpetas y nor even be imported completa. What I am doing wrong? is a problem of memoria externa? ¿Mediante me estan duplicando por cada importación Québec intento archivos y no me estoy dando cuenta?

    If the message indicates that your computer does not have enough memory, then your computer does not have enough memory. This has nothing to do with disk space. How much memory does your computer have?

    Now you also have another problem, the disk is almost full. It would be wise to buy an external hard drive and put your new files. If the files will have been doubled, it's probably because you import photos using the COPY option, you will have two copies.

  • iPhoto / OS / Lightroom - incompatibility problem

    Hello

    I am new to these forums and the LR and am currently stuck in the OS/software hell and desperately seeking advice.

    I just bought LR6 as a stand alone (Nothing creative cloud was noted on the packaging) but when I tried installing - creative cloud installed (don't know why) and I got an error message which LR6 cannot be installed because my operating system needs updated. I contacted Adobe sales and said that according to his 'newspaper page' that it is compatible with my operating system. My Mac laptop running OS X 10.8.5 and my iPhoto is 8.1.2.

    My conundrum is that I missed an interim update to iPhoto so that when I update to El Capitan iPhoto no longer works and it seems that I can't install LR6 until I upgraded to El Capitan. It must just be a solution to this problem!

    I have 30 000 + photos organized in 258 events, faces assigned to important people, Places (after maps/locations stopped working I entered the place name in the Description field under the field of Places on the 'return' of the photo), filenames turned into legends identifying the picture (on the best photos), editing using iPhoto tools (again on the best photos) and some additional info added to the Description in instances of field on the 'return' of the photo. Lots and lots of work!

    Number of questions:

    1-should I export each event in order to separate the files on my hard drive first (then back up my system) and then move to El Capitan?

    2 - I will be able to use the same redemption code to re-download LR6 or it will automatically install once I've upgraded?

    3 - once I got active LR6 will be able to access my iPhoto Library (mistresses) directly bypass iPhoto to import/add my photos to the LR catalog?

    Or do I have to add/import files created by exporting events? (I prefer the iPhoto library import/add, because if I understand LR import / add both the original and the amended photos as well as the metadata - right?)

    4 it is possible to get the LR5? It seems to be compatible with my operating system. Once I created my LR in LR5 catalog so can I update to LR6?

    I'd appreciate any help and suggestions.  Thank you very much!

    LR 6 and the CC version are exactly the same program, even downloaded and installed same files on your hard drive. The differences come from how you Sign In to LR.

    Also you need OS X 10.9.X, Mavericks, for LR 6/CC Mt Lion 10.8.x is to old to run LR CC/6.

    You need a new external drive, and you need to STOP using your old.

    There is no real repair a hard drive once it starts to miss. Of course you can repair the file structure, but it's to get the file there. Once a drive starts to go wrong it will never get better or even remain the same.

  • Try to upgrade a PES 10 catalog Lightroom CC - problem: conversion file path problem [was: upgrade Photoshop elements catalog]

    Update 20150707:

    So I think I found the reason for the problem:

    About 60% of my files in my catalog of PES 11 are converted (or probably better: "sent") to Lightroom with a double slash "/ /" in the path of the file.

    This looks like: D:/photos/ /Keep, albums, 2002, 200212 < the rest of the way is OK >...

    Lightroom complains that it cannot find the file on the disk, probably because of the double slash.

    With more than 4,000 theses error Lightroom core dumps with a buffer overflow, probably due to the large number of error messages. Cup of the catalogue of PES 11 decline little by little I managed to identify the cause.

    The problem is that my PES 11 catalog is repaired, optimized and PES 11 think that the file is in the correct location and can open and edit it.

    So what do I do to make the two programs to understand each other with their file name conventions? ... or how to get rid of the second crime "/"?

    Thank you

    Good afternoon

    I'm trying to upgrade a PES 10 catalog Lightroom (Lightroom details below) CC - both on Windows 8.1 (details below as well)

    There are about 30,000 photos in the catalogue of PES 10. Import runs for awhile then LR CC shows a short message that it could not import all of the photos and then it is intercepted by a Windows operating system message that indicates «Lightroom has stopped working...» »

    He has imported about 3,500 photos and converted all the photos of Collections, but also in the tree of the key.

    I tried the following:

    (in PES 11)

    • optimized and repaired the catalog
    • removed all files types that LR does not support
    • removed all media offline

    (in LR cc)

    • Tried running in different compatibility modes
    • Tried running in administrator mode
    • Temporarily disabled any antivirus software

    I run LR CC successfully with a new catalog and it behaved very well through all operations. TI ROM dumps on the conversion of this catalogue. Importing photos from the catalogue above works fine hierarchy; just that it loses the key word and obviously knows no collections.

    Is there any log file indicating the element involved the conversion?

    I have to say that I love LR after a period of three weeks of the trial, but I'm not really ready to let go hold on 90% of my data meta at this stage.

    Best

    Thomas

    I found the reason, but there is no solution...

    Comments:

    The double slash ' \ ' in the path appears to be introduced with the upgrade to PSE10. I can't say how it happened, but there were about 27,000 files connected by an access path "D:\pictures\\album\portrait\image_1.jpg".

    Fortunately, I worked with this database, as in fact all files could be catalogued, modified, opened with the editor. I checked from time to time for "Missing files" and none has been identified. After I discovered the problem during the conversion of catalogue Lr, I checked the display "File Location" and none of the files with the double slash are recognized as part of the catalog. I could import into the catalog of the "location of the folder" producing duplicates:

    'D:\pictures\\album\portrait\image_1.jpg '.

    'D:\pictures\album\portrait\image_1.jpg '.

    live happily next to each other.

    I could "move" the wrong file in the thumbnail view in its original, which corrects the incorrect path. But as my collection is well distributed on a large directory structure and there is no way to sort way "thumbnail" it would be a never-ending task.

    Here are the steps I took to fix the problem. It was not as simple as it sounds by

    now and took a lot of trial and error for weeks.

    1. I made a backup of the catalog PSE10 ("File-> backup catalog..") hard disk
    2. I have 'removed' photos from their original location, so that they could not be found (as I had a distinct data reader, I just removed the drive letter in the Windows Disk Management Console)
    3. I restored the backup PSE10 ("File-> Restore Catalog... "), choose 'new place' and placed in the root of a different drive. If you do not have a spare laptop drive, you can use the "subst q: ; I had hoped to keep the structure of the root, it is easier for the PSE10 to reconnect files later, but I can't confirm that it makes a difference.
    4. After restoring PSE10 complained (thankfully!) could not find any files (27,000) with double '-', so, unlike the situation at the beginning, I could now chose "file-> reconnect-> all missing files. He tried to find the files, but he could not find them in the area returned after searching for 5 minutes for the first file. Then I reconnected a file manually and restarted the process and after 1 h PSE10 had reconnected all files without any problems, and the images appeared as well in the 'file location' display.
    5. As I wanted my files in their original location, I "return" the files in their original location by moving them in the 'File location' view, which took another 3 hours.
    6. As I was not very confident with the whole process ensuring all files have actually been part of this process, I closed 10 PSE and "reinstalled" my original tree together file pictures of the "retired" location (step 2) after you delete the files moved PSE10.
    7. I grew up PSE10 and checked for missing files, everything was still connected.
    8. Finally I re-imported the tree of the original files 'reinstalled' together again to see if something is missed, but all files have been correctly identified as duplicates. The final step was to validate "File Location" view, where are the files appears in the tree structure tight.

    Then, I did what I wanted finally to update the catalogue of PSE10 to LR6 and it worked without any problems take images and metadata across.

    Fact.

    A plea to Adobe...

    I think it would be a great idea to publish catalogues different proprietary formats (PES / LR). This

    cannot be that difficult because you must have appropriate documentation. In this case the problem could be

    solved with double '-' setting programmatically. If you think that your customers entrust their digital

    assets on your cloud, some "opening" your end would be just one...
