  • 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.
  • 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.

  • How to import the structure of the catalog in other machines.

    Hello

    I have two requests. :-

    (1) I have a clothing catalog on my machine that I created in VAC. How to import this catalog structure in the other machines as well.

    (2) how to specify CatalogId in my project if I have multiple catalogs in my project.

    A single catalog, I used to mention catalog Id in catalogTools.properties in /atg/commerce/catalog/catalogtools.properties as:--

    defaultCatalogId = catalog30001

    How to make for several catalogues.

    Please advice.

    Thank you

    1. Go to the path of Jacks dyn/admin

    say in this case u created the ACC catalog data, go to/atg/commerce/catalog/productCatalog jacks

    Run provide name of descriptors section. under the section "operation tags XML on the repository.

    It will export all the data for some component and it is dependancies.if u wan to disable dependencies specify skiP-references = 'true '.

    To import and export data, you can use/ATG_HOME/bin/startSQLRepository command only in dev envirnoment.

    startSQLRepository-m ModuleName-import/export export_file_name-repository repository_component_full_path

    for example: -.

    startSQLRepository m Votre_module-export export.xml - repository/atg/commerce/catalog/ProductCatalog

    startSQLRepository m Votre_module-import export.xml - repository/atg/commerce/catalog/ProductCatalog

    Please make sure that you module is able to connect to the database, otherwise jtdatasource exception will come, not saying do not able to connect Datasouce atgmysqldb (default db configured in the jtdatasoruce property)

    Also if you want to export full db, use all the argument.

    startSQLRepository m Votre_module-export all the export.xml

    2. you have several options for setting catalogid in profile.

    • Use multisite and assign the default catalog to individual sites,
    • Set catalog to the user regiestered profile.
    • Usage scenario to assign the catalog profile based on rules.
  • Error importing the catalog

    Hi all

    Earlier, I exported a number of images of my main catalog to a separate working catalog.  Now, I'm ready to merge these changes and additional images in the main catalog.  I opened the catalog main, selected the catalog import and select the catalogue of work.  LR cranks for a while, and then he shows me the dialog box asking how to handle the new images, where I select to copy new images in the catalog.  I then start the import and quickly get an "Unexpected error" dialog box and import process stops.

    When I use the Mac Console application, I see the following error messages:

    Paul,

    To isolate the problem, I would try a couple of things:

    • Export catalogue of work in the catalog in another, and then import them from the exported catalog
    • Import the catalog of work in a newly created catalog

  • CC of Lightroom does not import the photos and displays an error, backup also fails

    Hello

    I use Lightroom CC on Mac and I try to import images, but Lightroom is unable to do it this time for some reason any.

    During the last import Lightroom does not have the download of pictures and showed me the following notification: "Lightroom has encountered an error when reading the preview cache and needs to stop smoking. Lightroom will attempt to solve this problem, the next time it starts.

    As it stops it suggests to the backup catalog files and the following notification appears: "Lightroom could not save the catalog named XXX.". Check your folder permissions, and then make sure you have space on your rear disc and disc from the main catalogue.

    I have 2 TB of disk space available.

    I tried to import the camera and my computer, however it is unable to complete the import in two ways, just that several files have been imported and import fails. In each attempt to import files Lightroom creates temporary files with multidigital names.


    I restarted Lightroom, then my computer, then attempted to create another backup folder, nothing happens. Please help me.

    Thank you.

  • How to import the logo into the clip and display it during the full clip

    Hi all

    I use Adobe Premiere Pro CS4.

    I am now a different DVD project that I've done since the time.

    Now, I'll use these them in a commercial of things if I want to add a logo on the clips to keep my rights... etc.

    Here is the situation:-

    (1) the import of the item in Adobe Premiere Pro CS4.

    (2) import the logo image I want to use.

    (3) right click on the video file and click Insert.

    Now, I want to know how to import the image file into the video so it's being there during the full clip?

    I tried several times to import it, but found that it displays seperatey after or before the clip or in the environment I want to be displayed during the entire film.

    Also, it is great when I posted I want to resize it to be in the upper right of the clamp.

    Thank you very much

    Sorry for the bad English.

    has taken more time than I thought... and it's just basic examples... may be refined more...

    with more time and reflection... .but gives you the basic ideas of... read the caches of combat and transparency... etc...

    -----------

    samples
    white background... .with hide by approach
    becomes transparent... letters, Black opaque, translucent gray

    transparent background
    black and white letters are shown as is with no cache by approach

    transparent background with matte...
    now white letters serve as mask and allow the image through only the white letters

    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
