• Lightroom CC 2015.3 crashes when importing

  Since I've upgraded to version 2015.3, I can import is more photos.  I tried to import from SD card and a hard drive, but both show the same failure.

  I am running Windows 7.

  First of all, when I start the import process, the display of the grid does not display previews of new photos.  If I double-click on a photo, he will show me the preview in full screen.  It shows previews of older photos I've already imported.  But in the grid, the new photos are all white.

  Then, I select copyand allow to Rename the files as I always do.  When I click on the import button, I get the screen of importation, that says "import...". "The status bar in the top left says" copy and import photos ", and the progress bar starts about 2/3 full.  It remains there, but no matter how long wait.  Occasionally, I get a handful of imported photos, but most of the time, no pictures are imported.

  When I give up and click on the X to cancel, a popup says, "no photos or videos not found to import.

  I also supported my catalog, thinking that the optimization step might help.  But it did not help.

  I also tried to import into a new catalog, but that did not help.

  To hang when importing - Lightroom Forums, I found:

  Hi, I encountered the same problem with LR 6.3 autonomous and it fixed when I connected in Adobe Creative cloud before running Lightroom.

  I started the creative application of Cloud, and I was not signed in.  I registered, and the import was successful.

  So I think that was the problem: I was not connected to the cloud to create, at least as far as the cloud app was concerned.

• Lightroom CC 2015.5 has no import - files ._filename unopenable 1KO "jpg".

  Hi all

  Last night I imported > 10 000 photos of my wife's iPhone (I know! crazy numbers, and I had to fight for it, because it uses daily, but has no space recently.)

  The last import I made February 29 clearly did not work, because there are almost no iPhone photos in Lightroom: rather stupidly I did not check because there are warnings only on a photo and video not able to be imported.

  I was faced with > 10 000 times so I left it churning away, and returned with what appeared to be a success. Glimpses of construction Lightroom crashed. I could see the files, but it gave me errors on loading of preview.

  Lightroom 20015.5 - Mac OS - X El Capiran, completely up to date. Import via iPhone over USB. Catalog and the files on the external drive USB3 (NTFS) via Paragon Software driver. with quality cables and no issues with the hardware at all that I can see.

  Now the horror!

  Lightroom seems to have:

  (1) on 29 February - duplicated thousands of my existing pictures with a file naming convention: "._filename" - see photo. The files are only 1 KB in size and cannot be opened, but the original is, fortunately, intact.

  These photos are not pictures of the iPhone and were not part of this import, then why it does this don't know! (Are they sort of sidecar files?).

  Duplicate files are DNG/jpg/ORF and any he found.

  (2) yesterday, imported unreadable files. They exist, but cannot be read by LR or other viewers on Mac or PC.

  The photos below show first 1) the odd files in Lightroom, which have used the names - they appear as images, but cannot be opened, 2) their sizes and 3) the search results with the string of file name showing that they coexist in the directory.

  

  

  

  The following two are the new files. They are larger, seem to be copies successfully, but cannot be opened. The successful single file is the film, and it's the thumbnail, you can see. (My wife yoga classes).

  

  

  Now I know enough about computers to know that there are a lot of possible issues. However, I am puzzled and, after reading a lot of posts on iPhone problems, impossible to find those that seem to correspond to this problem.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Kind regards

  David.

  David Rayden says:

  Are you saying that the MAC is paste these files on my hard drive NTFS ._name? Your link was informative on the do not delete; Thank you.

  Read also the ._name files are created by the Mac system, but are 'hidden' on the Mac system. On the Windows system that they are NOT hidden while they seem to appear from nowhere.

  David Rayden says:

  Lightroom is to see these ._name files. It would be nice if adobe gave us an import filter - I could use a wild card to exclude. (With the big red flag to import that filters are in use!)

  Easy to do! At the bottom of the module to import, select sort > filename. All ._name files should now appear together at the top of the thumbnail list view. Simply select these files by clicking the first file ._name and SHIFT and click the last file ._name then "uncheck", one of the ._name files. They should all now be disabled and checked all others you want imported.

  

  David Rayden says:

  The point on the issue.

  It seems the Synology iPhone upload works better. which is a shame for Adobe, I would say.

  Thanks for your comments, it is much appreciated. All ideas stimulated by the latest info would be appreciated. Do I mark this as 'Response' and open another for download problems, or I can keep it all here?

  Looks like you're talking about a question of LR Mobile with download of Smart Previews. Regardless, you talk if yes, please create a new post for that matter a separate issue from ._name files. If satisfied with the solution for ._name files please mark as answered to help others.

• Cannot import pictures using the USB cable

  I have a Canon 5 d Mark III and LR 4.3. I normally import pictures using a card reader see However, I'm on vacation and have only the USB cable that connects the camera to my Macbook Pro. I used it successfully in the past to import photos, but I am now getting the following error:

  

  I get this if I select one or more photos (there are about 195 on the map right now).

  Any ideas?

  Often, this error message means that LR cannot write the file to the location you're trying to move/copy it to, usually because your permissions to the folder or drive do not allow writing. Also, make sure that you have property ot the disk/folder.

• Lightroom CC 2015.6 does not import (Mac)

  Just recently, my version of Lightroom became unresponsive when I try to import pictures from my Nikon D500. It has the same when I try either pugging the camera in via USB or by using a card reader. It worked when I tried a son D7200 SD card, but the locks for the D500. I can copy files via the Finder on the local hard drive and import from there, so I don't think that the files are damaged, and the SD card appears on the desktop, just as it should. I had the camera since May and it didn't happen until recently. Creative cloud's all day, as is the operating system. I'm puzzled. Copy of the files, it's a work around, but not quick, nor how it should work. Any ideas?

  Hi Jamesmoehrke,

  Could you please update to Lightroom to latest CC 2015.6.1 and let us know if this helps. You may need to close all Adobe applications followed by disconnecting and then signing Creative Cloud App.

  See the Lightroom CC now available 2015.6.1 link for more details.

• Release of Lightroom CC 2015.6 VERY SLOW!

  Hi guys,.

  I use Lightroom CC 2015.6 contacted Camera RAW 9.6 out of 10 Pro 64 bit and I have pretty decent rig: i7 6950 X (10 carrots), Asus Radeon Strix 1080 GTX, 64 GB 3200 RAM, SSD on PCI.  'Use the graphics processor' is enabled in my preferences of LR, but I don't see an important when different it is turned off.

  First of all it takes LR about 3-4 seconds per image to build 1:1 previews, which means several hours if I have thousands of images from a shoot.

  When I try to get a glimpse of some of the images at 100%, and to quickly move between them it works fine for maybe 5 minutes and then it starts to slow down: it takes LR seconds to create each preview and also from seconds to move between images. Furthermore, the previews are 3840px in size and average quality.

  In Manager tasks I can see that at the start after start LR uses only 5-10% of my CPU resources and about 2 to 5 GB of RAM, but after a few minutes the use of RAM increases 15-20 GB and that's when LR becomes very slow. It seems he keeps each image previewed in memory and not release to the system when I close the preview.

  I also tried another software to compare and other programs were significantly faster (Aftershot Pro is the fastest, followed by DXO Optics Pro and Capture One).

  So it seems that this problem is strictly linked to the software and not to my material at all. Also, I noticed that after the recent updates, so I wonder if relling until one of the earlier versions might help.

  Ideas to improve my experience with the latest edition of LR?

  I'm really scared, because I don't really have time to wait for the software when working on thousands of images each week.

  Your response will be appreciated. Thank you!

  Adobe Lightroom GPU troubleshooting and FAQ

  https://helpx.Adobe.com/Lightroom/KB/Lightroom-GPU-FAQ.html

  You have your system configured to save all 1:1 previews in your catalog for ever? I set mine to delete every 30 days, so I don't have all that stored somewhere in a cache with LR.

  

  Because it goes so slow down anyway I don't think you have much to lose by trying to clear your cache. But read up on it before making this decision.
  

  In addition, if your photos are stored on an external I wonder if there is a problem with this external hard drive bus speed?

  Or if it's all beings stored on your local disk with the OS and applications, maybe it's having a shape any conflict with something the OS or a partner app? Do you think these performance issues when other applications are turned off? Just think-tanking with you here because it seems to have no else responded yet.
  Hope of those is the solution.

• Import dialogue crashes when it's attached disk external HARD - Lightroom CC 2015.6

  Hello

  You are looking for assistance.

  Lightroom is suspended when you try to import photos via the import dialog.

  I installed the latest version of Lightroom CC (2015.6) for Mac, and I understand that the previous versions had a bug of import but that this has already been resolved in 2015.6.

  I was able to isolate the problem to my external HARD drive. I bought a WD disk Raid Duo lightning strike and loaded with photos.  When it is disconnected, there is no problem with the import. When connected, the importation is suspended.

  If Lightroom is trying to read all the pictures on the external HARD disk and gets overloaded? How can I solve this?

  The HARD disk is functional with the Finder and my other apps, just not Lightroom.

  I don't think I've had this problem in the latest version of LR.

• Develop module is slow to load images in Lightroom CC 2015

  Whenever I look at a new image, it is slow to load in the develop module. Which means that when I click on a thumbnail, the image looks flat and not edited for 1-2 seconds until finally, it support. This occurs even after the generation of previews of standard sizes.

  The library module is always fast and has no problem with that.  This problem did not exist before the update of Lightroom CC 2015.

  Everyone has noticed this or a solution?

  [Left the forum Cloud/Installer generic for program specific forum... MOD]

  Hi jasond106,

  • Browse Lightroom preferences, then the tab file processing.
  • Here under Camera Raw Cache settings, please increase the maximum size: 50 ca (GB).
  • Restart Lightroom.

• Lightroom cc 2015: unbearably slow features

  I upgraded to Lightroom CC 2015 three days ago. I've been using Lightroom probably for a year when it first came out. When I shoot a photo to develop, I always punch "auto tone" to see what Lightroom will do with it and then I customized the adjust accordingly. Every now and then, your car is right now. This process was always practically instant. I click on your 'Auto' and see the results immediately.

  After I started the 2015 CC, I thought that the auto tone function didn't work at all. Click on. Nothing. Click, nothing. But after that I have would click, I couldn't scroll to next for awhile. Finally, after he did, I found out he had indeed made the auto tone but had taken a lot of time to do so.

  I have since discovered that Lightroom can last for 20 or 30 seconds to complete an auto tone in minutes. In the case, it was just that the computer slows down somehow, I did everything clearing the case to serve to repair permissions and have probably restarted, stop, started again and so forth 100 times since the upgrade.

  The problem persists.

  I hope someone has an answer to this problem, because it is wasting my time and kill my productivity. I can't stand it.

  I use an iMac 27 inches, 3.4 GHX Core iO * GB 1333 MHZ DDR3 10.9.5,

  Also, when I have star ratings, I experience a short delay before the shows on the side. Sides of color have always been useful for me as well. I don't find any side of color in my new Lightroom.

  Thank you.

  In response to-

• Lightroom CC 2015.2.1 slow and freezing up

  Hi all!

  I use Lightroom CC per day to sort and edit hundreds of images by casting. It's my lifeblood for the work!

  The program has worked flawlessly until the update to 2015.2.1. After the update, I started to meet the constant lag while spending scrutinized in the Gallery of the library in my catalogs, as well as trying the module development allows you to change the basic elements of photography...

  I can hardly move around the program without having to wait 5 minutes for any movement appears on the interface. The filter metadata on the right, sometimes crashes and I have to force quit the application and restart my computer to get the program works again... for 5 minutes.

  
  

  After reading the help forums I have unchecked the use GPU, optimized my catalog, all saved as usual, still lower previews to the option of smaller size. No chance for the program become stable for me to use it with ease.

  Thank you for reading and please let me know if anyone has any advice as to why the interface freezes and performance stops whenever I run the program. I have included below the information about my software and hardware in case this is useful.

• Help: How do I copy develop adjustments in Lightroom, Lightroom CC 2015 previous (5,7)

  Hello

  I've recently upgraded to the new Lightroom CC 2015 and have adjusted a few folders of images.

  
  I need to get these adjustments in the previous version of Lightroom (5.7) as Lightroom CC 2015 has proved to be too slow and buggy to use for production.

  In the settings of the catalog, I "Automatically write changes into XMP", but when I open the images at 5.7, the adjustments are not there.

  
  All advice appreciated.

  Thank you!

  Import photos into Lr5 and then the menus do 'Read metadata from a file' for these pictures force a reading of XMP data.  This should apply to most of the settings of your photos edited LR6.
