Organize your desktop automatically by DATE Photos

Hello

I have a small concert photo editing that come to me (by email), all day, like a daily assignment. It can be of 3 photos, it may be 50. But they all get made and sent this day there. I have... 2 computers. We are old and for my photography only (a brick, but a giant screen). When I download pictures from my camera it automatically creates folders by date in Lightroom and it's very nice - to me. I understand that a LOT of people hate organization photography by date, but it works. If I went to Yosemite on 22 August, I'll remember that and search for that date.

Nevertheless, with this editing work, on my main computer, I have a new version of Lightroom and it works just not for me. I want to have a record for the 07/10/16 function when the photo was imported, not based on me literally creating a folder and typing on. How can I get Lightroom to create a new folder for each import? I don't want to spend time, not getting paid, creating folders to folders on my computer just to organize the photos every day - is not point of Lightroom to, at least in some way, help to literally to organize your photos? Automatically?

My apologies if I'm missing some HUGE key point here!

Thanks in advance!

I want to have a record for the 07/10/16 function when the photo was imported,

Lightroom to create folders by date of capture. This seems different from what you're talking about, you have the ability to create folders by date of importation. Lightroom which does not (unless the date of importation is identical to the date of capture).

It's not clear to me why you want the date of the photo was imported, what's not with the help of the built-in functionality of Lightroom that creates folders by date of capture?

It is also not clear to me that in the future, you will remember that you have imported the photos of Yosemite on 07/10/16, and I don't think that this is a good method in the long term, unless you have a better memory of anyone I have ever met (and I am very skeptical that you have such a great memory) , years from now you will not remember the date that you imported photos. If you use the word Yosemite to organize, you will remember that and you won't have to stop and think what day you imported photos.

isn't the point of Lightroom to, at least in some way, help to literally to organize your photos? Automatically?

My apologies if I'm missing some HUGE key point here!

Yes,'re missing you a few points here. First of all, no software can anticipate all the possible needs of the user, it's records by date of importation (based on my experience of reading these similar forums and) organizing method rather rarely discussed, I don't remember someone ask before, so that the files by date of capture is a common way of doing things. That would explain why Lightroom isn't a feature to create folders by date of importation.

The other point that you are missing, it's that Lightroom has been designed to provide organizing tools that are not easily available in your operating system. These are things like keywords, captions, titles, collections, the coast stars, flags of choice and a host of other things. and it also provides research tools to help you find pictures with specific metadata. Of course, Lightroom also has access to the tools available in your operating system, such as the creation of files with specific names. That's what you want to do, and Lightroom can do for you, just the same as the fact of your operating system. You create the file with specific name and then put the photos here, just as you can do with your operating system.

Make your life so much easier to assign the keyword Yosemite to these pictures and then use this keyword Yosemite to get these photos in the future, it eliminates the cognitive task extremely difficult to remember the date of the importation of thousands (tens of thousands?) pictures and replace this with the extremely simple method to keep in mind that the photos were taken in Yosemite We must look at Yosemite. This is the brilliance of Lightroom, the power of Lightroom, it eliminates difficult cognitive tasks and replaces them with cognitive tasks extremely simple.

  • Numbers: Automatically generate data in one worksheet to another worksheet.

    By the numbers, how can you (or is it possible to) automatically generate data in a spreadsheet that is manually entered in another sheet?  For example, I want to track customer information in sheets 2-10 and I want specific data of these sheets to automatically fill the sheet 1 box so I can create an overview of the specific data in any of my clients.  As a dashboard of sorts.

    The devil is in the details here. Can you give more details?

    In general, I would say it will be much easier to enter your data at a specific location and then consolidate that extracts the "views" or "reports" it for each customer, to enter data for each client separately.

    But both ways are possible.

  • Media files went after login (preparing your desktop)

    On our desktop, we have important documents and family photos that were just lost today when we need to connect top and we got the message preparing your desktop. Now every time that connect us to that account, it gives this message. Wallpaper has disappeared, and the documents and a multitude of images/pretty much everything we did. The programs are always there. Is it possible to recover these lost files?

    "Preparing your desktop" indicates that the connection is considered to be a completely new user with his own user profile. Normally, this happens because the user profile is corrupted and cannot be loaded, it is rarely individual files, but is instead the hive of the registry of the user.

    When this happens, Windows creates a temporary user profile which is deleted when you close the session, but if nothing is done to solve the problem creates another temporary profile the next time.

    Try to run a restore point prior to the question that arises to see if he can recover a hive of work. Alternatively, you can try to create another user with administrator privileges and check the C:\Users folder to the directory of the profile user "lost". All missing files should still be there.

    Use this class as a small reminder that you need to do regular backups, in this case, the files should be retrievable. It may not always be the case.

  • Use folders to organize your bookmarks

    No "new folder" in Firefox on OS X 10.6.8 (can't access "On Firefox" while it is open?)

    You can open the bookmark manager?

    You can find "Show Favorites" in the drop-down list that appears if you click on the star on the address bar and "Show all bookmarks" in the bookmarks menu.

    You should find a "New folder" item in the menu to organize.
    It is the first button on the toolbar in the Manager of bookmarks (library).

    There are three main folders of bookmarks and bookmarks can be created only in one of these folders and its subfolders.

    • The folder "Personal bar" stores the bookmarks that you see in the bookmarks toolbar (Firefox > Options or view > toolbars).
    • "Bookmarks Menu" file stores the bookmarks that display in the bookmarks menu and are created through ' bookmarks > bookmark this Page "or" bookmark this link "in the context menu.
    • The "Unsorted Bookmarks" folder stores created bookmarks by clicking on the star on the right end of the address bar.

  • Establish your desktop profile / temporary

    Hello

    Running Vista Ultimate.  Had problems with my media center extender connection.  Once I started the PC, it works fine.  But some time either once a day or two if I have not connected the Extender already, or once it has been connected and then turn off, I can't reconnect.  There are errors in Event Viewer indicating that the profile is already in use.

    I finally decided to experiment and created a second user account in Windows (instead of Steve, this is SteveTest).  Well, if I go to this account first after the start, fine.  But if I connect to my existing account, then close the session, then log in to the new test account, it says "Preparing your desktop", then connects, then I get a message saying that it could not load my profile and uses a temporary.  I also have the same types of event messages seen as when I have problems in Media Center Extender.

    If I use the Test profile first, it never locks my original profile of Steve.  I can use the original profile of Steve for a week and never have a problem with disconnecting and logging to it, even after obtaining the profile of loading issues with the Test account/profile.

    It seems that maybe something in my old 'Steve' account is blocking up of some files or something in the registry and not let other accounts/load profiles, but I'm stuck in the measure where that might be, why, how to fix, or how even troubleshoot it.  Ideas?  I bet that wiping the old profile of Steve fix everything, but I would avoid it if possible, so I would actually solve the problem.

    Thank you

    Steve
