LR CC 2015.1.2 an insult to the work of pros

This dumbed down version of LR is ridiculous.

The import dialog is unrecognizable, not in its interface (which is), but as it is stripped of capacity.

After more than an hour with technical support, I am now able to copy and import all my images without hanging up process.  Yay! (it is meant to do)

But what I've learned, it's that I can't:

Import only the RAWs and sort them by file type, so I can import only the RAWs and not to sort all the files individually - and Yes, I know that the setting in the preferences to process JPEG files in a separate file.

Eject the card after importing

Embed metadata in my RAW files

Find my presets of existing copyright

And, I don't know yet how I can remove the link RAW and JPEG in LR and why do I get a warning of metadata on each newly imported picture.

I use Adobe products for years, including LR, but from w PS never a complaint. I was a big advocate of LR for my peers, friends, family, anyone who deals with images - almost everyone these days.  But I do not remember an update or a new version that has been the basis of this judgment.  I can only think that the updates are to dumb down the program for lovers and lovers who have been intimidated by it has the interface. Lucky them...

Here are the instructions on how to roll back to the old interface to import Lightroom: Instructions to restore an earlier version of update in a future update, we'll be back to the old interface of update: update of Lightroom Import 6.2

On the points you made above:

After more than an hour with technical support, I am now able to copy and import all my images without hanging up process.  Yay! (it is meant to do)

While the import dialog box interface has changed, most of the underlying architecture has not. You should not see any differences in performance as a result of the update. What had to be changed to prevent the process to hang up?

Import only the RAWs and sort them by file type, so I can import only the RAWs and not to sort all the files individually - and Yes, I know that the setting in the preferences to process JPEG files in a separate file.

The ability or the sort modes of the files in the import dialog box have not changed, they are identical, but have a slightly different location in the new version. The old version, or new version allows to sort based on the file type. The closest to that was sort by media Type, which separates the images videos:

Lightroom 5:

Lightroom 6.2.1:

Are you referring to something? If so, could you please provide a screenshot of it once you have canceled your installation?

Eject the card after importing

This is known and is one of the main concerns for a future update

Embed metadata in my RAW files

It is not possible to incorporate metadata into raw files. Metadata can only be added to raw files using XMP sidecar files. You can, however, always add metadata to the instance of the raw file in Lightroom when importing. This has not changed with the new import interface. You can always add keywords and metadata presets. We even added the ability to enter the Copyright information, which was not available before:

Lightroom 5:

Lightroom 6.2.1:


Find my presets of existing copyright

Metadata presets that you created previously should appear in the dialog box new import. But there is no such thing as a "copyright preset." There are only metadata presets, even if they only metadata that they include copyright data. I just tested this on my side to check and everything worked fine. If you have a metadata preset that is not appearing not in the new import dialog box, could you send to use to test with? Unless you're talking about the presets of watermark. But it will behave like metadata presets.


And, I don't know yet how I can remove the link RAW and JPEG in LR and why do I get a warning of metadata on each newly imported picture.

There is no difference between how it works in the past and how it works now. The import dialog box will automatically ignore the jpeg copy of a pair of raw/jpeg (both shot at the same time formats). As you have mentioned before, this is handled by the option preference to decide whether "treat JPEG files files next to raw as separate photos. This option has not changed the behaviour with the new version.

  • The MacBook MacBook Pro vs the 2015 2012 Air

    I'm currently looking in laptops refurbished Mac as a device to program in XCode on and use it as a laptop school.

    My options seem to be the 2012 MacBook Pro vs. MacBook Air 2015. While my main focus will be programming, I need my computer to be able to handle other tasks. My complaint with the laptops has always been the General slowness are associated, when they become easily outdated. In the MacBook Air, much higher transfer speeds of flash memory should help, but the big difference of GHz between the two processors will be a problem?

    In the 2012 MacBook Pro, it runs at 2.5 GHz with a Turbo Boost to 3.1 GHz.

    In 2015 MacBook Air, it runs at a meager 1 .6GHz, but the Turbo Boost can reach up to 2.7 GHz.

    Big Turbo Boost of the MacBook Air, it seems competitive, but it will never really reach this clock speed? I've never owned a Mac for myself, and while the Turbo Boost looks impressive on paper, I do not understand if Turbo Boost is effective when it is actually implemented or not.

    Unfortunately, I'm used to my 4.0 GHz custom PC, so it is difficult for me to understand the magnitude of these small clock speeds and Turbo Boost.

    All opinions welcome, thank you for your thoughts!

    Hi milehigh3r

    In this article MBP = MacBook Pro and MBA = MacBook Air the MBP specific I compare the MBA with is Late 2012 15"

    Two of these laptops have there for and against.  I'm assuming that you look the MBP 15 "and 13" MBA

    In the MBP i7 would also go more high as you say that its Turbo clock is 3.1 GHz which means that it is the fastest frequency, he's going to go.

    Pros of the MBP (MacBook Pro)

    Retina display (Macbook air is not equipped with a Retina display)

    Can use up to 16 GB of Ram

    There are also more ports on the MBP

    All CPUS MBP is i7 which means you would get the benefit of technology hyper threading which creates a 4 additional virtual cores.  What will make it a 8 Core CPU.

    the MBA would not have this functionality if you upgrade the $130 extra for the i7 (Note: this i7 in the MBA is only a Dual Core)

    The MBA Pros / Cons

    Latest generation ports (Thunderbolt 2 (Thunderbolt 1 is on the MBP))

    You cannot install any OS prior to OS X 10.11 El Capitan

    To conclude I totally recommend that you go for the MBP because you have found the two nuclei and i7 in standard, you can also get much better display.  Also all Apple products Refurbished come with new batteries (I would say that you go to a class A which means better conditions).  Try to get a SSD if possible as they will make it lot faster on the start menu to the top of the OS and applications.

    Need anything better explaining it, or have any questions feel free to answer me.

  • I have a Macbook Pro 2015 retina and I wonder how the cycles of battery are calculated?

    I have a Macbook Pro 2015 retina and I wonder how the cycles of battery are calculated?

    If I load to 100% and then run it down on battery to 0% of course it counts as a battery cycle.

    If I recharge to 90% and run up to 5% or 10%, which count as a battery sprays?     Between what % are there?

    The reason I ask is that I try to keep the cumulative battery cycle count down.

    Thank you

    http://www.Apple.com/batteries/why-lithium-ion/

    Whenever he finishes a full charge, it's a cycle.  If you charge 70% one day, then 30% another day, it's a cycle.

    The Apple site, I posted above, it explains very clearly.

    A cycle is counted when the battery has completed a 100% charge, not a discharge.

  • Illustrator or Photoshop CC 2015 better to draw designs of the hand?

    Hello

    I draw the old-fashioned... way pencil/pen and paper, then search in Photoshop usually digital top own and coloring. I wonder if Illustrator CC 2015? or Photoshop CC 2015 is preferable to trace the digital work. It should be clean for the publication. Also, what tool would you use in Illustrator, I have to learn the software from scratch. All I did was in Photoshop, and I used the Brush tool.

    I also just bought a Wacom Intuos tablet, which I have to learn a scratch(whew!), advice or tutorials, you can tell me would be most appreciated.


    Thanks in advance,

    Janice

    There is no absolute answer to your questions. Illustrator and Photoshop are perfect for different types of work. It depends on if you need vector or if the bitmap is fine.

    According to your original work in pencil, you can even find "auto-tracing" would be a good choice. You've already invested in a Wacom tablet. It is very good and it will be very useful. The new iPad Pro, with pressure-sensitive pen, can also be a great option to convert your artwork. I know he has tablets is focused on the window, sensitive to the pressure as well.

    Basic of Illustrator tool is the pen tool. All other vector tools are based on it, so learn it is a must. For plotting "Freehand", the pencil tool may be next on the list. It is intuitive and works fine with the Wacom. Learn how to change the existing, on-the-fly, strokes with the pencil tool as well as the 'Option' of the change key. It will make you save a lot of time. The latest versions of changed this option by default, but it can be restored to the original workflow in the preferences.

  • After the update of the 2015 Audition, Blue Yeti microphone no longer works.

    I just updated the Creative Cloud 2015 Audition on my Mac and my Blue Yeti Pro mic stopped working immediately.

    It will run for a few minutes, then the "clock Source' says 'Not available', and the microphone is listed as 'not working '. After a few minutes, he will return to work, and then go out again. This happens in the middle of recording, with no change to the audio settings or connections.

    I tried to reinstall Audition and I tried the 'First' comprehensive solution and or work. Any help would be appreciated.


    Screen Shot 2016-03-14 at 6.43.41 PM.png

    There were not any changes in the way of links to Audition with audio device drivers, so there should not be any difference between CC 2014 and 2015. You can try to uncheck the 'use specific peripheral machine by default'. You may also enter the page setting up Audio and MIDI of the Mac to ensure that the hearing has priority for your audio device. The symptoms seems to indicate that some other app on your computer is striking pilots of the hearing from time to time trying to play sounds of notification for example.

    You should be able to go back to the previous version of the CC 2014 by opening the Adobe Creative Cloud application on your computer, click on applications and down in previous Versions.

  • Someone else has 2015.4 Lightroom crash when checking the integrity?

    I use Lightroom 2015.04 on MacOS X 10.10.5. Lightroom is put to my catalog of backup once per day and for testing integrity before saving.

    Before installing 2015.04 (the latest version), Lightroom always done this with success. Since I upgraded to 2015.04, it constantly crashes during the part "integrity check" of the operation. The progress bar indicates approximately 2% step, but never advance beyond this point, even if left to work for several hours (normally, the control takes a few minutes). Cancellation of the event does not help, and I have to force quit the application.

    One thing that seems to help is manually optimize the catalog before leaving (using 'Optimize the catalogue' from the 'File' menu). If I do this, then the integrity check usually works without problem, and Lightroom proceeds by the copy and optimize the steps in the backup successfully.

    It is not clear to me whether the catalog is corrupt. The fact that verification does not succeed - as long as I optimizes first - I want to believe it's OK.

    This has never been a problem before moving on to 2015.04. Since the upgrade, it has occurred regularly.

    If someone has experienced this problem and, if so, is there a solution? Is there a way I can confirm that the catalog is not corrupted?
