Lose the photos when you import new

Hello community,

I'm probably a dumb user to LightRoom, but I have problems in my workflow. The tutorials that I have reviewed so far are not sufficient for understanding or my question.

Please find below operations step by step, I had to make the experience of boredom:

Product of LightRoom, installed with an official number of series, fresh install from scratch

Opening the software. Create a catalog called Cat1

Importers 253 RAW format of my series of camera images. The 253 are available in the roll of the bottom of the GUI of LR.

Make my selection. The treatment of all selected images. Export to .jpg format.

Importation of 6 new RAW images from the hard drive of the computer.

Then the 253 photos have disappeared. Only 6 imported new photos when I wanted to add the 6 253 other.

Is is possible to recover the 253 photos?

If not, how to add photos to an existing catalog?

Thanks for your answers,

Bernard

Hi Bernard,.

Please make sure you have the recent Cat1 open catalog in Lightroom.

Click file > open recent item and check your catalog.

Also please check in Lightroom in the catalog Panel, if the previous 'Import' option is selected, if so, please select "all photos".

  • Can I import words from the file name as keywords in the metadata when you import pictures?

    Hello

    My apologies if this question has already been asked. I can't find the answer: will / Lightroom can import words filename for my photos as keywords in the metadata when you import the photos from my hard drive? And if so, how can I do this?

    I'm new to Lightroom from iPhoto. After reading several articles on the transfer of photos from iPhoto, I exported some 7000 photos in an electronic file on my hard drive. I'm following the advice, sort and rename the photo files on my hard drive to be able to import them into Lightroom in an orderly fashion. It is not too difficult because iPhoto already for most changed the filenames for event names as ordered in iPhoto. I also prefer to do it manually rather than using any iPhoto / Aperture plugin because my iPhoto organization was far from perfect and I have already started to significantly improve by changing the file names.

    I'm renaming the files of images with additional information to improve the organisation even more with what would anyway keywords "DATE/NAME/NAME OF PERSON (S) IN THE EVENT PHOTO" so it would be good to not have enter these keywords in the metadata after import for each photo. It's automatic and if not is there a way to do this? All the other tips are welcome!

    Thank you

    Hi adiscerningeye,

    You can create metadata Preset and then apply this preset on import for images.

    Link partners: -.

    Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Help | Shares of advanced metadata

    Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4 * create and apply metadata presets

    Once you create a metadata preset, you must select it during import so it will be applied on all images when importing.

    You can also type a few words under key words, so it will work like keywords for this specific to import Images.

    Let us know if it helps.

  • What is happening in the original file of the photo when I import it in Photos and I have the "Delete after import" box checked?

    What is happening in the original file of the photo when I import it in Photos and I have the "Delete after import" box checked?

    When organizing photos for Photos for Mac app, I find that the Photos makes "copies" of files within the library of Photos and must reference a file if your settings are such that you do not copy the original files in the Photos app.

    Trying to manage the disk space for the Macbook Pro.

    The delete after import is available only when you import a device - a camera, card, an iPhone, but not when you import files from a folder on the system drive.

    You can delete the local image files of your system drive yourself, once you have imported the Photos and they were copied in the photo library.

    I would never use the option "delete after Import. The files will be deleted until you can check if the files have been imported correctly. If you find out later, that some of the imported files are corupted and illegible, it will be repeated o toolate import, because the files have been deleted from the device. Or worse, if pictures should plant a reason any during the import, all the pictures will be lost, if you have enabled "delete after import.

  • external hard drive mounts as the camera when you import videos in FCPX

    When I try to import media into FCPX, my external HD rises like a camera and never displays anything (tricks and spins forever).

    I have other external HD pairs and they mount as expected when you import. I can get to the external HD in question, it is just when I go to import items I hit a snag. I make changes to the properties of my library and changed back. Still have a problem. See screenshot of the Properties window and the import library. I'm sure I'm missing something simple, but I was not able to sort out what I did. Thanks in advance,

  • Lightroom spoil the photos when you use the external editor

    Hello world

    When I export images to an external editor, Lightroom moves the image and the copy of it at the end of the stack. This is a new phenomenon, generally the image remains in place and the copy is simply attached to it (chronological order). I use Lightroom 5.7, external editors are PSE 14 and affinity Photo. Problem with the two editors as well. No recent update, no change in the settings. Can you help me?

  • camera Sony 7r mk can if display impossible to generate the preview when you import into Lightroom 2 - get

    Hello

    Does anyone know how to get the Sony raw (ARW), taken with the new camera Sony 42megapixel, working with Adobe Lightroom.

    When trying to import maps on my pro Sandisk extreme sd in Lightroom app said: Impossible to generate the preview for files that have been taken with this camera... I can't import these files.

    Lightroom says cannot import files-non recognized by the raw support in Lightroom.

    However, the raw files generated by the camera of Sony a7rs, imports and plays well with Lightroom...

    I'm now using lightroom 6 edition of lifetime license not CC (just updated to 5.7).

    I thought that this upgrade would have solved this problem... but it doesn't seem to be the case.

    Is someone having a similar problem... and if so how is it resolved.

    Hi robertlue,

    Sony 7RM2 files are supported in the latest version of Lightroom is 6.1.1 (Camera Raw 9.1.1)

    Make sure your Lightroom is so far through this link: keeping up-to-date for Lightroom

    Then, try to import into Lightroom.

  • When you import images in LR5 on my laptop, the photos all have a broad yellow streak through them. This only happens on the laptop; I can import the images on my LR Office and he's not the streak of color.   Can anyone help?

    When you import images in LR5 on my laptop, the photos all have a broad yellow streak through them. This only happens on the laptop; I can import the images on my LR Office and he's not the streak of color.   Can anyone help?

    This happens even with pictures taken on another device, not just mine.  My daughter told me that the phone fell recently.  The yellow streak isn't nowhere elsewhere on the laptop, right on the photos in LR.

    It happens when you import new images. This pourrait indicate that the sector where the pictures are copied to is damaged. But it could be a faulty card reader or a bad cable if you connect the camera directly to the computer. It's a hardware problem. Your challenge is to figure out where this problem.

  • Avoid duplicates when you import XMLs?

    There are a few versions, we have fixed the problem to get the duplicate items when you import new projects in another.  This was very helpful.

    However, I have noticed that when you import XMLs, first does not apply the same level of... discretion

    Is it possible to get XMLs for import without creating duplicate items?  I found a workaround by first import the XML file into a new project and then import this project first to my main project... but when I'm in a great documentary film which takes 3-4 minutes to open each time, it's not ideal.

    This is particularly important for people using the Pluraleyes because organize us images in first and then export to the EP, and then must bring with XMLs, and it would be great if we didn't have to do a bunch of media management manual to avoid duplicates in the project file.

  • Can add you automatically some than Tags based on folder name when you import into PSE12?

    I thought that I used to be able to add tags automatically, based on the name of the folder, when you import? I can't ind now. Was this wishful thinking?

    What is possible when you download from the camera or a card reader, is to use the options in the Advanced section. You can add images to a selected album and you can use a template to import IPTC metadata; right of author and writer.

    This is not based on the name of the folder.

    What you can do when you have displayed your subfolders in the left panel is to highlight the subfolder and create an 'instant album' with the name of the subfolder.

    Ask if you need more details.
