• Impossible to import other catalogue LR?

  I get an error message saying that I can't import from another LR catalog because the catalogue was created in a newer version of LR. But I checked the updates and my LR is completely up-to-date. Any ideas?

  This happens if you have a catalog LR 6 and you try to import into LR 5.

  To check what version of Lightroom, you work with a second time (saying "completely updated" is meaningless in this context). What is the full complete version number of the Lightroom you opened? What version created the catalog?

• Virtually all of the files are missing after you import the catalog.

  I'm NOT sure that has nothing to do with lightroom, except that yesterday my files were all there, now, they are absent.  It could be a hard disk failure.  Its just strange that it affected only the files that I tried to interfere in my lightroom catalog today.

  Well as out of town, I pulled a few thousand photos and them ingested on a daily basis in a new lightroom catalog that I created on my laptop.  Files imported into a USB external drive.  The laptop is win 10.  It is on the latest version of lightroom, CC.  Yesterday, everything was going well with the catalog, disk, and files.  All were there.  The catalogue and the photos were on the same drive.  The laptop was listed as the letter 'g ':

  Once I went back to the office today, I wanted to import pictures to my largest catalog on my desktop.  I have used this external hard drive for all my new photos in 2016.  On this PC, Win 10, the letter of the external drive is also "X:".  I started lightroom in my big catalogue very well.  I chose to import from a different catalog, accessed my X Catalogue outside in the car and started importing without a copy of the files.  This should leave the files in the same location.  It took a little more time I expected to import this catalog.  When I went to the structure of folders inside lightroom, it seemed that all the files have been imported correctly.  But there was a "?" from the folder.  I assumed that I just needed to do a "find" on the X drive as I thought that my lightroom catalog could have been pointing to the G drive.  Locate, but cannot find the files.  I've used windows explore to browse my files and the folders and files were all missing, with the exception of a folder where I shot some photos with a camera, about 100 photos in all.  Thousands of photos from other cameras were all absent.

  So next time, I ran a scan disk and windows came with a message of repair.  The repair said that it worked successfully.  But I looked in the Explorer, the files were still missing.  I ran a scan disk again and no error found.

  I looked in the trash on the desktop and there is no files on this disc.  If the missing files are still missing.  I had not saved the files yet since they were really vacation photos and have no critical and since I was going to save them after that I spent in review on the workstation.  Some are still on the cards and could be retrieved.  But I formatted my main map at least a couple of times and I'm afraid that most would have been crushed and is more viable, even using the card recovery software.

  Before you begin importing today, I don't check the disk to make sure that all my files were there.  There is no error in windows at startup and I don't mind just to check in Explorer or open the 'new' catalog first.

  1. Could Lightroom have somehow deleted files and can they be retrieved?
  2. Assuming that it was a Windows / hard drive error, can anyone recommend a program attempt to recover files lost like that?  Given that the entire folders, sound also lack if the index of the obtained partially erased disc.  But maybe the files are still there.  Then there is a program to search for them?

  Note that the other files on this drive all seem to be good.  The only missing are import of today.

  It is drive X:, but the files are not there.
  portable version is 2015.6

  Desktop version is 2015.5

  The

  Somehow, the windows removed them.  I use EaseUS data recovery to retrieve them.  He had no problem finding the files.  So I guess we can mark this resolved.

  Thank you.

• Lightroom cannot import this catalog.  The catalog doesn't seem to be a valid Lightroom Catalog

  Try to import photos from a different catalog by selecting and choosing the catalog to import since I get the pop up "Lightroom cannot import this catalog.  The catalog does not appear to be a valid Lightroom Catalog"I have lightroom 5.7.1 installed on both my Macbook Pro laptop and iMac desk top.  The two are running OS 10.10.5.  I try to import photos from the laptop to the desktop on a wireless home network.  Other than this recent attempt to import pictures, everything seems to work normally on both computers

  Maybe I tried to import about 800 photos, each of about 40MB, through a wireless network.  Most of the photos of the number were consecutive, so perhaps there was a /corruption of interruption in the process.  Anyway thanks for the help

• How to resolve the error: "lightroom could not import this catalog due to an unknown error" during an attempt of "import catalog?

  I have about 400 000 pictures of so given the high number of 15 years, I had all my photos in 6 catalogues to avoid potential problems. All photos and catalogs are in a 4 TB Seagate external hard drive. I use Adobe Lightroom 5 and I use a PC with the latest Windows Office 2013.

  I wanted to have a NEW catalogue of all my rated 1 star + photos of all years in a single catalog. So I created this I called Catalog + Star and told me the best option is to import a catalog at a time, and because there is no way to filter import them just photos now, I would like to import all the photos and then delete all the photos of UnStared. I did for the catalog of the year 2014, but in the end gave me the message: "lightroom could not import this catalog because of an unknown error. He had in fact imported about 40 k pictures of about 50 k total. I tried again and again and each time I end up with the same thing. I created a new another catalog and looked from scratch and the same ting happened: EXACT 40 k photos or JUST have been imported and others were not! When I imported catalog year 2013 of about 45 photos of k, it worked perfectly. But when I imported catalog year 2012 35 k photos, it's the same thing!

  All the tips: 1) on how to solve this problem? and (2) if there is a way better and easier to create this main catalog of all looked at them Photos of all my catalogs?

  Okay, my starting point is that LR can contain fortunately 400000 + photos, and it's a mistake to create a 1 star and catalogue as you suggest. Instead, I would recommend that you create a master catalog of all your photos, you can then question however you want - 2 stars, or a certain keyword, or with "xyz" in the title, etc.

  If you are intent on going this way, you could try a slight change in what you have done so far. Instead of trying to import a complete catalogue and then delete photos of TSE, take the 2012 and 2014 catalogs and select only the photos 1 star. Then to Export in the catalog for these items and import the 2014-1star and 2012-1star in your new catalog. Can pass the problem images that I think are the problem.

  If this does not work, or if you follow my initial advice, you're going to need identify the image where the failure occurs. You may have a corrupted image file, and replacement of your backup can be enough to solve the problem. Alternatively, it may be a corrupted in the catalog folder, and in this case, it may be sufficient to remove the image from the catalog and import it again. You can try to select everything in the catalog of 2014 and see if you can do an export as catalog, creating a 2014 clean and delete file previews of 2014 could also get rid of a potential problem. Another thing is to try exporting in the catalog for images 1-40000, then a second export as catalog images 40002 - 50 k.

  So a few things that you need to try, rather than a magic bullet and a recommendation to change the underlying meaning.

• Is it possible to import a catalog of Lightroom 3 in an earlier version of Lightroom?

  I shoot for a couple other photographers and provide them with the files.  My workflow has been to import the RAW files in Lightroom 3, make selections and adjustments of the base and then export my selections/settings as a catalog so that they can make additional adjustments they want (cropping, color/contrast, rename, etc.) while working with RAW files.  One of my clients works with an older version of Lightroom (LR2) and cannot import the catalog due to a version error.  Is there something I can do to make my catalog that is readable by the old version when exporting?  Thank you!

  LR3 catalogs can only be read by LR2.

  For the person who has LR2, you will need to provide exported TIFF.

• Is that someone has seen an ORA-16796 (impossible to import the properties) in DGMGRL?

  Hello brain trust,
  
  I have an Oracle 11.1.0.7 primary and have configured an 11.1.0.7 Eve. The config is our recipe for 10g. The broker is in place on both sides.
  
  I'm going to add DGMGRL primary, no problem. But when I add the day before, I get ORA-16796 (impossible to import the properties). Digging into tracking logs, he mentions an ORA-01017 (username/password invalid). But I have no problem connecting as "conn sys/password@db_standby as sysdba".
  
  I got this ORA-16796 times before in the distant past, and the problem is that someone has changed the SYS password on the primary without updating the eve orapwd file. In this case, it is NOT the problem. I put in a fresh orapwd on both sides (bounced the DBs later), and I explicitly put the SYS password on primary before cloning the expectations. And once again, no problem doing a "CONN sys/***@db_standby as sysdba" primary. I can talk to the wait, look at its tables of $ V, etc. tnsping, etc all work fine. listening port on both sides shows services. DG broker is in place on both sides.
  
  Tried the shuffle "stop broker, remove all the config, start db broker, try again ' a few times with no luck.
  
  I'm really scratching my head on what it could be. Open an SR with Oracle, but I was wondering if anyone here has any other advice?
  
  Something has radically changed 10 g-> 11 g about DG? I admit that this is our first instance 11g and I'm based its config on what we are doing for 10g.
  
  Something was changing in the security about the SYSDBA distance model? Again, I have no problem connecting as SYSDBA in the primary for the ORA-01017 really confused me.

  The config is the result of our recipe of 10g - you copied the file password from the primary to the standby when you create the day before? 11g a password different internals file and simply create one for the day before with the same password no longer works.

• Labpython impossible to import copy_reg

  Labpython fails to import the module copy_reg and modules that depend on:

  LabVIEW: An error has occurred during execution of the script. Error message from the server: , no module named. copy_reg in test.vi

  The module copy_reg is there and it works fine. Import other labview modules seem to work well.

  I am using Labview 2009, python 2.6

  Any ideas?

  The problem was that for some reason the Python interpreter inside labview messed pythonpath and consequenty could not import the modules modules. I don't know how to fix the problem properly, but manually add an entry to pythonpath from inside the script node in labview python has solved the problem:

  import sys
  sys. Path.Insert (0, "C:\\Python26\\Lib")

• Import the catalog - only images not file folders

  On the road, I make a temporary LR catalog and store the images in subfolders (e.g. particular State Park etc.).  When I get home I want to import images into specific folders in my archive main.  Some of the files already exist, or can I not want to use a different name, I don't want to create additional subfolders.  How can I me LR to only import images to the location I specified?

  LR seems always to import folder encompassing also as new subfolders contained in the location you choose in the importation of the Catalog dialog box.

  When you import pictures from the trip catalog, you do a generic import or a "catalog import"?

  If you perform an import of generic, you may need to copy the directory tree of your images using the Explorer/Finder, and then perform an import 'Add '.

  If the 'import from catalog', you may need to look at the file manages the settings in there.

• Cannot import Lightroom catalog created on my PC to my Mac

  I have CC Lightroom installed on my PC and my Mac. Recently upgraded to the use of the stand-alone version of the CC version.

  The PC and Mac have installed according to Creative Cloud Manager version "later."

  I have a number of books of marriage created on my PC that I need to install on my Mac. Here are the albums complicated with several pages including 250 photos.

  I followed advise from this forum and saved the books as a catalogue, including images and page layouts.

  When I try and do a 'import from another catalog"on my Mac, I get an error:

  "Lightroom cannot import this catalog.

  The catalog was created by a newer version of Lightroom. »

  Hi WerdnaM,

  It seems that you open an old version of Lightroom on your Mac.

  Please check and make sure you have Lightroom CC launched on Mac.

• Could not import the catalog of items

  Good evening

  I just installed LR CC 2015.  I am trying to import my PS 12 elements catalog.  After the installation of LR, he asked if I wanted to import my catalog of items.

  I answer OK.

  It completes step 1 but very quickly the steps 2 and 3 flash by and the process fails with an error message "Cannot import catalog items due to an unknown error."

  I went to the elements and ran a repair of the catalog.  No problems were found, but I ran the repair anyway.  (I have only a catalog with photos about 7200 in it.)  Try the import again.  Same result.

  My computer is an iMac mid-2013 with 8 GB of RAM.  The OS is 10.11.4.

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  The problem has been resolved.  I made changes to my catalog of PES 12, one that could have been useful.

  • deleted the catalog items that does not generate stamps for unknown reasons.  Those with a "broken" thumbnail  There were few of them.
  • Deleted the catalog items that were orphans - were found no associated file on the hard drive.  There were about 10 of them.
  • Deleted about 10 sound files from the catalog.  Not sure how they got there in the first place.
  • Updated the Visual index.  (less probably helped)
  • Ran optimize catalog
  • Ran repair (for the second time) catalog, even if the dialog box indicated that it was not necessary.

• Impossible to import the raw files from canon g16 in lightroom 4

  I have a new Canon g16 and can't import raw files into my lightroom 4.  I downloaded the recommended dng converter (canon g16 was one of the devices listed on the support list) and I always get the error message on lightroom being impossible to import and raw riles the g16.  When I checked for software updates, it says there is none - that my lightroom software 4 was "aware".  Does this mean I have to buy lightroom 5 or 6?

  Hi kerryem,

  Canon 16 G has been initially supported by Lightroom 5.2.See devices supported by Adobe Camera Raw

  

  Please switch to Lightroom latest version 6 to be able to process raw images from new cameras.

  Alternatively, you can use the DNG Converter to convwert G16 raw to DNG files and then import them into Lightroom 4. see help Photoshop | Digital negative converter Adobe 9.x

• Import the catalog, stuck "update of batteries".

  Finally move to the creation of a MASTER catalog, after 10 years of working with individuals (for each year).

  1/3 way through, worked great, but then import got stuck, 'updating cells' reports. I gave him 15 minutes, but no progress, then tried to cancel. Now stuck ' cancellation of...» »

  I've always been tired of the idea of the 'one-catalog-to-rule-them-all' approach, precisely for those reasons.

  Any thoughts on why I'm seeing this?

  Will start, but sure would like to know what I could do wrong. I'll start the catalogue in question, that I'm importing, see if it's the problem before all over again.

  Same HD, Master catalogue is at the top level folders (broken down by years), which contains the original catalogs I'm importing. So nothing complicated. I force quit LR, also restarted my Mac, then reopened the master, and he seems to have imported the catalog that he hung up. Everything seems fine now, so just a stroke of luck. Before, I'll learn to trust a catalog (with backup, of course!). Thank you
