LR5 creating unwanted files when importing

Hello

first of all I would like to say that I have worked with LR for several years, began with LR3, now 5 and 4; so I would call myself a little lived with her, that's why this problem is driving me crazy! I just got a new computer, PC to imac and so installed the trial versions of LR and PS CC on my new iMac to get everything set up before upgrading to the cloud for the new system. On my old pc, I am running LR 4 and before had 3 and never had this problem before. I took a page that I will attach here. Basically, when I want to import photos from the camera or a card, I select the source, then copy, then the folder that I created on my hard drive, make sure that nothing else is selected if I want to change the name... and in the Destination area, it shows me with the selected images, it will create two new folders. I did not create these files, nor do I want them! Where did they come from? I can't remove them, and if I uncheck mark them all my photos selected will be also unchecked. So I guess there are program some that I'm missing, but for the life of me, I can't find and it drives me crazy! I double checked all my preferences many times. I even made sure that I ticked the box in the general tab - ignore the file names generated by the camera when you name files. What Miss me? I use the iMac with OS X Yosemite10.10.1 5K. Help, please!LR5FileProblem.jpg

  • Server 2008, XP roaming profiles and "cannot create a file when that file already exists"...

    Hi all

    I'm working on a Server 2008 domain with XP SP3 clients.  The question is: create a new user, their profile is \\server\profiles\%username% [where %nom user % is their new username!].  Security on the profile folder is set so that the administrators have full access and the user has read & execute, list folder content, read and write access.

    The user is able to login ok there is no problem with roaming profiles [otherwise, they would get a message on with a temporary profile loading] which suggests, but when they disconnect they get a message saying that some files could not be created [it varies], followed by "cannot create a file when that file already exists".

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • Mac Mail will not create a file to import when importing .mbox files

    I've recently moved from an old Mac Pro (2008) a new (end of 2013). Both are running El Capitan (OSX 10.11.2) and the latest version of the mail (9.2). My old machine was old enough, so I skipped using Migration Assistant and performed a clean installation.

    I'm a graphic designer and, in the past, I always saved my emails into folders for each customer. When I finished work, I export it as a .mbox and check it in case I need to reference it later. If I need it later, I use "file > import mailboxes," select "import data since: Apple Mail," find the archived .mbox file and select it. " Mail lets know me that he has created a 'Import' folder, and there are my files.

    When I migrated to my new Mac Pro, I exported all my open work files, copied to a drive can be removed and added to the new machine. When I use the method "file > Import Mailboxes" I have just detailed, the import dialog box reads: "You can find boxes imported into the folder named 'Import' in the list of mailboxes mailbox." However, no 'Import' folder is created.

    I tried to leave Mail and reopening so to restart my Mac. I also tried to use "import data from: files in mbox.» In this case, I get a message that says: "error. No valid mbox file was found. »

    Here's the kicker: I created a new folder of email on my new Mac Pro, email at random from being dumped and exported it. When I re-imported, Mail created a new 'Import' folder, just as it is supposed to. It seems that the problem only affects files that I brought over my old camera.

    Any ideas I can try? I can still access my old Mac Pro if necessary.

  • Missing files when importing files in LR5.2 catalog on OS Mavericks

    Hi, I hope someone may be able to help me.

    I'm running LR5.2 on Mavericks and I find that when I import the content of one of my discs containing 1 TB of images arranged in folders and subfolders, files that many of these images are missing from the catalog, even if they are certainly still on the drive I am importing of.  When the synchronization of the catalogue, or the items it contains, it will say there are thousands of files to synchronize.  When I then sync, it will go through the motions up to 10 minutes, telling me his complete, but at the end of the day, will not import these files.  I have this same drive cataloged in LR4 on my work MacBook Pro under Mountain Lion & all files are visible on this.

    Any ideas what going on?  Could this be a problem of incompatibility with the Mavericks? Or something weird in my settings?  Shoul be I re - install LR?

    Thanks in advance,

    Craig

    Out of curiosity, when you synchronize you show the import dialog box? I noticed the other day that I didn't show the import dialog box when I synchronzied to add folders, Lightroom did not appear to actually add the images. But when I tried again and crossed the import dialog box, it appeared. Wasn't sure if it was the stroke of luck or a bug.

  • Why PE10 uses the incorrect date format when it creates the files during import?

    Hey,.

    Since I upgraded to 10 EP, I had a problem with the date when the import format.  I have always used the format yyyy-mm-dd when I import my pictures, and this is the format that I choose when I import using Organizer, but it invariably creates files in the format yyyy-mm-dd.  It becomes tedious to rename folders.  Any advice?

    Thank you!

  • Why LR5 does not read the CR2 files when importing?

    I just installed LR5 and to my dismay, it gives me an error message that it can't read my player card CF (CR2) files

    Never had a problem with this in the past on LR3, LR4.

    That is what it is?

    LR5 help says I have all the updates.

    UPDATE: the card reader has been connected to a USB port on the back of the machine and I just moved it to a front of the port of the case and it worked fine.

    Go figure.

  • Still do not understand the Placement of file when importing

    Mac/Mountain Lion, LR last, 5.

    My file (for the most part) structure follows this pattern: ~ Pictures/Lightroom/2013/2013-09-30/MyGreatPic.CR2.

    Frequently, when I import from a camera card, LR creates a path such as this real from just a moment ago:

    ... / Lightroom/2013/2013-09-30/2013/2013-09-30/MyGreatPic.CR2.

    IOW, it breeds a redundant "2013" folder in "2013/2013-09-30" and nests and then a folder "" 2013-09-30. redundant in the new "2013" folder ". Please see screen capture.

    I am unable to find an arrangement for this problem under the catalogue... settings or Preferences.

    Feature, bug, normal behavior, operator error? The easiest solution I found is to manually create a folder named '2013-09-30' in the main "2013" outside the LR folder and then select this folder when you import. Move the pictures in the Finder after import, and then re-binder is also possible, but still work. But is it supposed to be automatic, is it not?

    Thank you!

    If you already have records of date you want set up as destination of import, then right on "Organize" "in a folder.

    Although I can't help but wonder if it wouldn't be better to define the destination of import to a top-level folder, then let ' organizing: by date of ' do what he does.

  • How create/update files when the original Version is based on a query of outer join?

    Hi gurus,


    I created a custom page where I use a table-style area where I question my VO records, based on a query of outer join. This query contains my table looks, where I would like to insert/update records, and joined the table of standard elements, which is external with my custom table.

    When I now question my files in the t, I have a record for each record in the table section, which is ok, but when I 'Refresh' some fields of my custom table and attempt to commit, I get the message "unable to complete the transaction on record. Cause: The record has been deleted by another user. "Action: cancel the transaction and re - query records to get new data.
    The reason why because a record is to be inserted rather than updating because in fact there is not yet in my custom table.

    The reason why I'm using the outer join, is because I don't want the user to create a record for each item one by one.
    There is no work around for this?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello
    You can try this.

    In your EntityImpl.java to extend OAPlsqlEntityImpl.

    Override the updateRow() method and coding your insert statement to insert into a table custom here.
    Don't forget, you must ignore the lines for which your custom table columns are null

  • Invalid media. Popup cannot create the file' when building

    OK, the background. I am currently using RoboHelp HTML 11.0.3.268, with the latest updates, as I write this, after having updated in RoboHelp HTML 9. (I know people are going to be asked, and I understand, so I am stating as much information to the front to make sure that nobody questions that they own.) My main RoboHelp project breaks down into eight separate subprojects, with a production of CHM and WebHelp HTML files. In addition, my supervisor has had a problem with the HTML files generated by RoboHelp 11 new of visualization in Google Chrome, so I found and added the files RH11 recommended by RoboHelp help (WebHelp in RoboHelp questions versions 10 and 11). Immediately after that, however, I can't generate WebHelp files. As soon as I select between all the WebHelp settings menu, a popup appears that reads "invalid media. Cannot create file', then with the path of the directory to the project page main .htm.  Short of reinstalling RoboHelp HTML, what options do I have to be able to produce a valid set of WebHelp files?

    The fix you point is older than the patch 1 for RoboHelp. He basically invalid subsequent fixes in plots. If you have saved the original files, you can restore your backup. If you do not have a backup, let me know and I'll post a link to the correct version of these files.

    What are the issues of Chrome that you saw?

  • 5 Lightroom cannot copy files when importing catalog of PC

    Try to merge my old catalog of PC in my recent one Mac.

    I put two catalogs, then consolidated the PC catalog and media on an external drive of 3 USB (NTFS) - Catalogue Mac is on an external Firewire (Mac OS Extended journaled) drive. Two separate catalogues have been tested and were working with all accessible media.

    I imported into the catalog from the catalog Mac and previews went well, and any catalog looks fine EXCEPT that almost none of the media has copied across (about 4500 photos worth!) some have, however, no idea why, or why not, in both cases. Received an error message that says that Lightroom was unable to copy some files.

    I have so much manual cleanup, which took days, to do this without pain, I'm pretty empty such a simple thing has not worked.

    Any idea, what could be wrong and how to clean up this mess without having to go through where everything manually again, please?

    The problem sometimes is not the record you think Lightroom is writing the actual file that attempts to write to Lightroom.

    First, confirm, glancing in Lightroom, the destination folder. Do not use where you think it's supposed to be written to.

    Then change the permissions on this folder to WRITE (or read & write, everything he says)
