Organize photos problems

I have photos of the different versions of iPhoto, Picasa and Kodak EasyShare scattered on my main drive and 4 external drives. When I went all together in one place I just disorder. It seems that my Mac (OS Mavericks) cannot handle large masses of photos. It can transfer small batches but I tried Lightroom, Picasa, ACDSee and some others, and they all start and then choke. Finally, I used the Finder to search for all jpg files and then I could only drag small batches. It would take much time to spend it.

I was thinking something like rsync could cover all of my hard drives and do drink

t I think that will transfer only a whole folder not many files in many different places? I'm not good at the terminal commands.

Any help out there?

For sure the issue is not the operating system - Maverick can handle a large number of photos very well - since you do not inform my guess is the lack of free disk space

Is OS X 10.9.5 as you say correct for your OS? What version of iPhoto? It should be 9.5.1

How much free disk space you have on your hard drive?

  • How to copy an organizer 'photo album' to a digital photo frame, photo enforcement "album?

    I like to keep the order of the photo I put in place in an organizer 'photo album.  When I copy the photos to photo album on a USB key, the order is the order of file name.  Is there a way to keep the order "photo album"?

    Order of the album is limited to the catalogue of the Organizer. The order of sorting out the catalog may decide where you view album. You can create an album, choose your album order, rename your files by selecting all files and pressing Ctrl + N and Sift. The files will be named according to your order of the albums.

    This name change will help you display your files in the same order, outside as well as inside the Organizer.

    Thank you

  • Why not Lightroom organizes photos and videos is missing 'date taken' by 'date modified' instead of 'creation date '?

    It always seems to be a problem with Lightroom 5. This post is one of the first results, after trying to Google this problem, and it's for LR3. I don't understand why something so basic to some photos (and video) Organization has been neglected for so long.

    I tried to import and organize all my old photos and videos by date with LR5. They have been backed up and copied several times over the years, most recently on an external drive last week. Thus, each file has a 'creation date' last week. But 'change' is the date recorded.

    It's not bad for pictures with a good EXIF "date taken" - but LR5 resembles the "creation date" for videos, making it completely useless to organize them into folders based on date. He puts videos I recorded in 2010 (in accordance with the "modification date") in a case 2014-12. Why.

    It is not only a video problem - some pictures that I took with devices that does not record date "EXIF taken" are also filed in folders of this month even if the 'update' on them is correct as is 5 years.

    How can I count on LR5 organization importing and based on the date when it is based on the files (lack of "date taken") having never been copied or backed up?

    It has been at least partially fixed in LR 5.5, for images: Lightroom: the dates do not match for the missing files metadata date/time.  But I just tested import a .avi in LR 5.7 / Windows 8.1 and the date below the thumbnail in the grid has been the time of last modification of the file system, while the Date of Capture in the metadata Panel has been set at the time of importation.

    I started a new topic in the Adobe official feedback forum: Lightroom: capture still inconsistent date/time for videos. Please add your vote and review on it.

    When I drag and drop a large number of videos of 'Photos' in a folder from external hard drive, thumbnails are everywhere. Sometimes with a lot of different files on each other.

  • How can I organize photos a way where they will remain in a certain order whenever I discover the folder?

    HELP PLEASE IM GOING MENTAL! I took vacation photos on my camera and the phone I want to then put in order in a single file. However, every time I leave the folder and return in the videos have moved and the photos are back in their order of moose. I tried several times and looked for an organization of the options but no luck so far, please help {I really don't want to go by and name each file starting with a, b, c, etc.}

    original title: HELP Please IM GOING MENTAL!

    Batch numbering so perhaps would be worth a try:

    Organize files the way you want and go to... Edition / select all.

    Right-click the photo 'first' the selected (highlighted)
    Group and from the menu choose... Name change.

    For the first name... Enter a descriptive word for the group,
    a space, and the first number

    Summer vacation (10001) .jpg

    (Yes... Use parentheses and start the number with a 1)
    (If you want to add a descriptive title to batch... Leave a
    space after the last letter and before the first parenthesis)

    Press on... Enter and Windows renames the remaining photos...

    Summer vacation (10002) .jpg
    Summer vacation (10003) .jpg
    Summer vacation (10004) .jpg

    Good luck...

  • NMH410 distance photo-problemes

    Hello.

    Have a 3.18.15 running NMH410. Works ok (a little slow?), but what is strange is that when you connect to this ciscomediahub.com I can listen to music, and broadcast videos ok, but the box times out and I lose the connection after some time when trying to view the photos. I also see on the overview 'Use by disc type' I have pictures of 0 percent but 66% other. It is perhaps an indexing problem causing timeout? (The box is index not at the moment, I can say Re-Scan-button at the top.)

    Locally, it works but it is terrible slow and only occasionally to expire. Well, I do not use this 'feature' of LAN and remote access is good if it worked.

    Hello.

    Finally I got to work properly.

    The formatting procedure "Back to simple disk and then back to linear" did not help. It only formats the data partition?

    Anyway, I put the drive in a SATA cradle on my laptop, removed the three partitions and startet everywhere again. Connected, and he said that a new version is available. It was actually the same version that I thought that I used before (all status screens told me it anyway): 3.18.15. Maybe something was wrong during the last update? The box started and it seems actually more responsive.

    I added a few photo-dossiers and mediahub-flash-gui has been able to show a slide show, which he na no sooner.

    After you have added all my photos 14000 + it slowed down significantly, but not as bad as before.

    Then I upgraded my flash plugin IE8 to 10.0.42.34 (don't know what it was before, but it was quite new, a few month or two). At the same time the box was left in peace he do things for a few days and now slide show on ciscomediahub.com also works perfectly! If it was the time of peace, new flash player or reformatting the drive - or maybe a combination - that did the trick, I don't know. In fact, I believe that the new flash player has done a lot. Have you tried chrome too and many same result.

    So finally, I'm very happy with it. Should be much faster for this price, but for now, I'm just happy that it works at all the...

    PS: FTP-speed to the box via local network has always been pretty good. Transfer about 60 GB in 3 hours, which is about 45mbit/s. Woaaaw not, but just enough at home.

    Conclusion: Linksys have a lot of work to do as well as people marketing said. It's almost fast enugh to be 'great', and it lacks a lot of features? But for now, I'm happy with it and rejoice in SW-new features that speed up things more far away and gives me some new interesting features.

    IWant them all to be in a single folder and not a copy

    Hello

    The best way to search for and display images on your computer is using Windows Photo Gallery. By default, photo gallery displays all the images and videos that are located in the folder images, but you can add other folders to photo gallery. You can search for pictures and videos by typing in the search box or by clicking tags, ratings, or dates in the Navigation pane.

    Windows Photo Gallery by clicking on the Start button the image of the Start button, all programs, and then clicking Windows Photo Gallery.

  • HP C309g - m 3-in-1 printer Photo - problem of re - load software

    I'm on Windows 8;  I used this same photo printer 3 in 1 HP C309g-m on an older system of Windows 7.  I was able to use this printer for a year and so far this week, I had no problem.  I can print documents, but for now, I am unable to open the HP Solution Center to scan documents or images.   I don't remember if I had installed something new before you have problems.

    I restarted my laptop and printer, the error message reappears (unfortunately, I capture a screenshot of the error message).  I decided to uninstall/reinstall the software.  The uninstall appeared to go smoothly (I don't, however, have uninstalled the primary software first), so I put the software CD reinstall the drivers/software.   There is no option to install the software, only one option 'leave' (screen attached).

    I went to the HP support and downloaded the HP Print and Scan doctor.  I also used the HP printer install wizard for Windows.  Both seemed to work without a hitch.  The same HP C309g printer installation window came to download the software and drivers.  The download went through the entire process.  When I clicked on 'Finish', a time error msg (screen attached).

    On a previous Help topic, it is suggested to download CCleaner - I decided to do it, but I don't want to change my browser in Exchange by using the tool, so I cancelled the download.

    Here is the screenshot of my program list that shows there is "empty" remains of the downloaded software previously.  As you can see, the only software that today is a result of reinstalling is the HP Photo Creations & support Solutions Framework.

    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Hello rcarr2013,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    Your very informative post, I see that the Photosmart C309g software gives you a very difficult period, do not install it and allow you to analyze.

    I would suggest a few steps which I think will be very useful.

    • * If you use a USB cable to connect the printer, disconnect it.* *.
    • Since the Office Windows and R key on the keyboard
    • Type %temp%, press ENTER> last 7z Ouvrezledossier > Util> CCC
    • Run the L3 uninstall and restart the computer
    • Disable your antivirus / firewall.
    • Open the folder %temp% again, this time hit CTRL A to select all and delete the contents of this folder.
    • Disable start-up items; Windows key and R and then type msconfig. Click Start and disabled all the, and then click Services, hide all Microsoft and disable these institutions.
    • Download and install the latest version of Adobe flash player: Adobe Flash Player
    • Restart the computer and try to install, HP Photosmart Premium C309 all-in-One series full feature software and driver.

    Let me know if it has things working again.
