• moving iPhoto videos on external hard drive

  I am trying to export my videos to iphoto to external hard drive.  I choose 'export' as the original, but there is no place that I see write a destination disk.  The first attempt 625 clips wound up on my desk!

  You have posted the pictures to Mac forum and ask questions about the use of iPhoto for Mac and gave no information on your system at all - what software do you use? And what OS?

  Basically when you export the second window is a researcher like window where you select the location of the export

• How to import from an external hard drive to LightRoom.

  I'm brand new creative cloud and LightRoom. I have read and listened to the import from card memory, but I'm not sure how to import since the backup of my old Mac Pro drive to my new iMac. The external drive is already the backup for the new iMac, is connected and works. I can see the HARD drive in the LR Panel and you can find the 'pictures' folder in the drop-down list. I don't know if the 'folder of photos (on the left panel) is the old b/u or the iMac HARD drive. I can get to where I need to be so I can understand what I'm looking at and what I should look for that for the 2 discs HARD, p/c or iMac. I know the right panel, but the interactions are completely unknown to me. Thanks for any help and advice. TCrowe

  If you are importing from a hard disk, then you don't need to worry about the right panel in the import dialog box. This would allow you to locate the file you want to import in the left panel. At the top of the import screen you choose the option 'Add '. This will add these images to your catalog without having to move them anywhere. If you want to place copies on another hard drive then you would choose the option copy the top of import. Then the right panel will allow you to specify where you want to place copies.

• LR 5 import since the external hard drive LaCie MacBook Pro

  
  

  
  

  I use LR 5 on a MacBook Pro.  I backup on a LaCie external drive.  I'm not able to import all the photos using the Add function.  4 000 photos, only 400 are imported.  I get a greyed out on the photos not imported image by saying that they exist "elsewhere" in the catalog.  It worked very well for years, this just started happening, I didn't do anything differently.

  How to do that, re - connect?

• Download of photos from an external hard drive

  New to Photoshop.

  IMac OS X Yosemite - Photoshop Elements 13

  How can I set Photoshop Elements download as opposed to import my photos of my external hard drives?  I want to avoid the 'missing file' & reconnect "."  Memory cards import all data: external hard drives can probably do the same thing?

  I found information on how to manually drag on but it does not work either.

  I don't want any of my eternal hard drives to synchronize with Photoshop, as they do at the moment.

  I read learning and support and tutorials but still impossible to locate any 'preferences' in this regard.

  Regards Tina

  Hi Tina, if you want to keep the external drive connected as a drive to work, then you must copy pictures to a folder of photos.

  Then use the menu of the Organizer:

  File > get Photos & videos > files & folders

  Then navigate to your location in images.

• External hard drive where the stored images has been corruptd. The images recorded, but now cannot connect with LR

  I got LR cc 2015 put in place so that the images have been imported on my external hard drive and lightroom files were stored there. This hard drive has failed, but I was able to save all my files (original) and I transferred to a new external hard drive. Now, I can't get LR to recognize the new drive and location. LR albums have? next to them. I would appreciate any help you can give me that I have try to reconnect LR with the new source of my images. Sorry, I'm not very technologically.

  There are 153 images in this catalog, all on 1 external. Which does not seem right, or you expect very different numbers, could you give me an idea of what numbers you expect?

  This seems to be an empty catalog with any folder. It seems to me that you have opened an empty catalog somehow. Could you please try file-> open the recent item and see if any of the other catalogues listed is the one you want? If this does not work, could you please try to restore a recent backup of your catalog file and see if the situation is resolved?

• Renamed the external hard drive and now 5 Lightroom can't locate photos that were underway

  My husband uses Lightroom 5.  All of his pictures are saved and imported from an external hard drive.  Today it has renamed the hard drive, and later, when he went to the room open light, it does not find who he had worked on the picture.  Photos and those that it has exported are still on the hard drive, but he was still editing are not displayed.  Any ideas?

  Because Lightroom uses the hard real path for images, change the name of HD has broken this link. The best way to restore the link is to go in the library, make a right click (control click on Mac) the folders on the left side and select the location of the update folder. If the images are in a closed file as the top-level folder (recommended) digital capture needs updating. If there is a lot of files, then you will need to update each record separately...

• Problem with Lightroom and external hard drive. Files and folders deleted.

  In the classroom (8.1 windows computers) import us images that .dng files on an external hard drive using Lightroom.

  After the Lightroom, insert us the memory card containing photos and attach an external hard drive. (formatted to ntfs)

  We create a new catalog on the external hard drive and then create a folder as the destination for the images on the external drive as well.

  After passing to the newly formed catalog in Lightroom, we import the photos from the memory card to the external hard drive.

  Photos are present in the folder 'import' on the external hard drive after the end of the import, so checking with windows Explorer.

  After the closure of LR and disconnect the external hard drive of the computer, it appears that the newly created files and imported files have disappeared.

  We tested with an external hard drive in exfat. The same problem.

  There is no problem when you copy directly in Explorer windows of memory card files to the external drive.

  The files are not hidden. Tested on mac and windows.

  If you said that the photo files are on the external hard drive when you checked using Windows Explorer during the class? Is this correct? YES
  Then you go home and the files are not on the external hard drive? YES

  Well, it is a mystery, but there is no way that Lightroom can be the culprit.

  Is it the same for the catalog file, in class, he was present on the hard disk according to the Windows Explorer, and when you get home, is no longer on the drive? YES

  Same conclusions, it is not Lightroom.

• Why import AVCHD properly storing sequences map (SD card) while the same images completely transferred to an external hard drive imports only the video with no audio?

  I shoot on a Sony Alpha a65 and it uses AVCHD when recording. I have not met this problem before.

  I transferred the entire contents of a memory card on my external hard drive.

  I tried to import the images from the hard drive, both using the import media browser-only video clips are imported with NO AUDIO.

  I thought that I had corrupted images as my memory card was images of two different rods. I turned one on 2 October and the other on 15 Oct (approx.).

  HOWEVER: I then tried to import directly from the SD card - and it worked! Audio, video and all.

  I can change this being, of course, but it's a concern I have obviously can't keep the SD card only for this sequence forever - and backup to external hard drive will not audio. That might mean that I won't be able to pick up on it in the future, if necessary.

  Can you help solve this problem – that is, with the film which is not imported correctly from the external hard drive or why something is lost in the transfer - and explain why this happens?

  Please note: I tried marqueeing everything and do drag and drop, as well as select and drag / move, when you transfer the images from the SD card to the external hard drive. I'm using a Lacie Rugged 1 TB (firewire option).

  Maybe there's a hidden system files that are not copied.  You have "View hidden files" enabled and "do not show system files" in the Folder Options disabled?

• Import movies directly on an external hard drive

  I'm about to start on a project to import all the old movies video families and rather hard disk DivX wonder if it would be easier to buy a 1 TB hard drive and import them directly on the disk hard - the film is about 60 videotapes (1 hour each) - I use IMovie 10.0.5 - I did not update my version of IMovie as it appears that later versions have the ease of 'marking '.

  Thank you

  If you create libraries on an external drive any media imported into these libraries will be on the external hard drive.  For details, see: http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.1/#/mov3fa25bae7

• Unable to access video clips of the external hard drive

  I've been using PE9 for six to nine months.  My normal workflow was to create a separate project on a 500g external hard drive. This file contains all the video clips (.mov files) and the Project.PREL file.

  This great worked until recently.  I can bring is no longer the .mov clips in the project schedule or sceenline from the hard disk.  By using the command 'Get Meda' a 'unfinished' file is downloaded, and when I try to drag the clip to the timeline, the program asks me where the file. Something has changed - and I don't know what or how to fix it.

  

  The image above comes from a project where I'm having this problem.  The clips that have images in them are downloaded from my portable hard drive.  Others come from my external hard drive - and those are the ones that the program cannot "locate."  That's what I'm trying to figure out how to fix it.  Yet once, this suddenly started happening - so somehow I changed something, I think.

  The same clips can be imported when they are stored on my hard drive.  When I try to import them when stored on a video card, the video importer PRE opens and I can bring them to the program in this way.  However, these are not viable alternatives for me.

  So what has changed, I can't determine.  Is there a setting, codec or something that I can study that this would cause? As I said, this just started happening?

  In addition, some previous projects to open correctly and some may not find the files - even if they are all stored on the same HD 500 g.

  Help, please.

  This ARTICLE will give you some general tips on editing of external HARD drives.

  My first guess would be just like John T - outside drive letter has changed in the operating system.

• How to import bookmarks from an external hard drive?

  I exported my favorites from firefox on an external hard drive. Now I have a new laptop, but do not know how to transfer these back to firefox bookmarks.

  It is no different to import from a hard drive on your own machine. The external hard drive has a drive letter on the same way as a HD internal.

  Just use the reverse procedure, you made to export the file i.e. choose "Import HTML" instead of "export HTML".

  If you saved it in. JSON format, then choose 'Restore' in the menu "import and backup" instead.
