• Lightroom import problems

  Hi guys!

  Been having bad last week, or so, with importing photos into Lightroom. I have a LOT of pictures, about 10.5 thousand, and try to import in Lightroom are problems of variables. The two big questions are this:

  1. I store all my photos into folders to organize them. When downloading, all records imported photos are not just duplicated, but the photos in the files are duplicated twice. Any ideas there?

  2. I name all my files that I save the photos in order to keep track of them. When a file starts uploading in Lightroom, it removes the name of the folder, which is a huge problem.

  Another minor point, sometimes import gets stuck, but I tell myself it's just because of the amount of pictures that I'm importing, restarting fixes everything.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  1. you probably import using the copy option while you should use the option Add

  2. you, the user, have complete control over the name of the records used

• Import problems in Lightroom CC / Windows 10

  Import problems in Lightroom CC / Windows 10

  I have problems to import a batch of photos of a recent session. I am importing images, every time even on the same day, since a camera SD card on my hard drive using the option "copy as DNG.  My original files are Nikon raw (.) The NEF format) with sidecar JPG.  Among the 292 cases tried in importing, only 7 are converted. DNG format and do it in my catalog.  The remaining files have all been copied to my hard drive but are not converted to. DNG and do not appear in my catalog.  When I try to import and convert the remaining files that were copied on my drive hard but not converted to DNG or added to my catalog files is displayed with a check box but eventually fail to get changed or added to the catalog.

  I also tried to copy originals directly into a folder on my hard drive and making the Lightroom Import from there and get a similar result.

  I am under Lightroom CC on a Windows 10 PC.  Any idea what could be causing the problem?

  First of all why you are converting to DNG? LR CC read Nikon NEF files fine.

  Have you tried to copy the pictures to a folder on your disk and import only the naves with no conversion when importing?

  Start a new catalogue and test-only import NEF files with no conversion to DNG.

• Lightroom 6 (6.3) import problems

  I have serious problems, import photos from my Canon 5 d mark III. I have over 300 new photos on my CF card, and the import function crashes after importing about 80 photos. Tried five times now, the same result every time. Try to import the same photo through my card reader is even more difficult. It crashes before the previews. The built in Windows import function works fine.

  But also try to add/import a picture existing file om my C drive, also does not work. It will display "0 photos.

  I used 5 before Lightroom. No problems.

  Any help?

  I have a desktop computer with 10 Pro 64 bit Windows installed on a disc SSD M.2 PCIe (Samsung 950 Pro 512 GB).

  You should consider the possibility that the card is bad.

  If you get a different card, take some photos, and then try to import, it work?

• My lightroom is having problems to import images, I tried a different card with the same results readers

  My lightroom/mac is having problems to import images, I tried a different card with the same results readers

  This means that ccouldn can't ccopy Lightroom photos in the destination directory. You must determine which directory is specified in the Lightroom Import dialog box, it is on the right in the Destination. Then, you will need to enter your operating system and change the permissions on this specific issue to the WRITE permission.

• I had to rebuild the computer and reinstalled the photos of cecently.  I have photos imported into Lightroom, but the parameters associated with the photos, that is to say. When they were developed, are not there.  How to import these?

  I recently had to rebuild the computer and reinstalled the photos.  I have photos imported into Lightroom, but the parameters associated with the photos, that is to say. When they were developed, are not there.  How to import these?

  Default LR stores all changes in the catalog file, not in the pictures. So if you have a backup of your original catalog you will need to copy on the newly rebuilt system and open it in LR. You will then need to recreate a link to the images in the catalog depending on where are your images and where the original LR catalogue think they are.

• Lightroom has encountered problems of reading of this photo...

  I do my editing on a macbook pro... in move to a pc. I'm under cloud of adobe on both machines so assuming that they are on the same update of programs...

  When I open on my pc I get this error (not all the time)

  Thanks Dave

  Lightroom has encountered problems of reading of this photo...

  This indicates that the photo file is corrupt, and it is unlikely that you will be able to use the photo at all. If you have a photo backup, you must restore the backup.

  You can run diagnostics on your drives to identify potential problems. Map of the camera may also be the culprit, it could be that the file was written incorrectly camera card (although if you do not have the problem on the MacBook, but do have the problem on the PC, which seems to exclude the card camera)

• Why Lightroom re - import photos already imported from my iPhone 5?

  I noticed that if I use Lightroom to import photos from my iPhone, it fails to recognize that it has already imported to them. I do not see this behavior when my Canon imporing. How to make LR to recognize what it is already imported?

  A question of "stupid":

  Have you disabled - top right of the import dialog box?

  It should be checked when you do not want "old" photos to import again.

• Lightroom cc2015 import error "could not copy a file to the requested destination.

  My Lightroom will import is more pictures.  Images will come when card is in, import starts then the error message appears.  I transferred pictures on the desk in the new folder and got the same message when you try to import the pictures in the folder.  Then I reformatted the SD card, again made test photo and tried to import with the same results.  There was an update with my CreativeCloud, Lightroom was updated to version lasted once again with the same results.  Shutdown... computer blah blah, nothing has changed.  Shooting with Nikon 7200, working on a MacBook Pro, Lightroom CC 2015

  I have found similar problems online but haven't found any resolution.

  

  Change the destination folder in the import image window.

  Should be able to import images.

  =============================================
  Something to try:

  and the Assistant to the camera as follows:

  The executable for the scanner and Camera Wizard is:
  wiaacmgr.exe

  Connect your device to your PC via the USB port / switch...

  Open the box run into your Windows Logo key and pressing r...

  Type or paste the following text in the box run and press on...
  Enter... must start the wizard:

  C:\Windows\System32\wiaacmgr.exe

  (Should work on Windows 7 / 8)

  If Autorun does not start, the following steps may
  be worth a try:

  Connect the camera to the computer via a USB cable and
  Turn on the camera.

  Reach... Start / computer / removable devices
  Storage...

  Look at the drive letters and see if one of them
  represents the camera. He can say removable disk

  If the camera is recognized... right click on the drive letter
  and from the menu choose... Open or explore.

  The directory of the memory card in the camera must
  poster and if you browse through the various
  files, you must find the photo files.

  Once found... you can copy/paste the pictures in a folder
  on your hard drive.

  Simple and the best solution IMHO is to use an internal
  or external USB memory card reader.

  It will not drain your camera batteries and can be faster.
  FWIW... download from the camera when batteries
  can be low after a long photo shoot could result
  corrupted photos.

  You have a USB media drive internal or external?

  Insert the memory card into the correct location on the media player...
  If open windows... Close them.

  When the card is inserted... If you go to... Start / computer... is
  player card on one or several removable disks?
  (You could say, "devices with... of removable storage")

  Removable (e :)) drive
  Removable disk (e :))
  Removable drive (g)

  If_Yes_you can download photos from there. Left click
  the drive letter that corresponds to the memory card must
  display the directory of the card and you can copy and paste or
  Drag and drop the photos of your choice in a folder on your hard drive
  drive.

  Just a select group of photos do a right-click and choose... Copy...
  then navigate to the folder that you want, and then right-click the
  folder and choose Paste.

  What version of LR?

  In any case you must enter the serial number to a registered version. If it is for a subscription of the CC, all you have to do is sign in using the same Adobe ID membership is linked to.

  If for stand-alone version, depending on the version, all you have to do is enter a number of valid series or Sign In for LR 6, then enter a valid serial number.

• 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

  Your use of the word "files" (in the plural) still makes me believe that you have not checked the permissions on the folder that is appropriate (in the singular).

  You must determine the Destination of the Lightroom Import dialog window Panel and see which folder Lightroom is really tr6ing to copy photos in (which may have been accidentally changed and is not what you may have used in the past) and change the permissions to write to this folder.
