Preserve the favorite iPhone in Lightroom?

I can't find an answer on the forum or online.  My workflow has been less that optimal because I bought an iPhone in December, and I'm trying to find a way to recover.

I have now 11 000 photos on my phone - with 1,000 marked as Favorites.  My workflow in the past, with a camera, was to download my photos in a folder and then process in Lightroom - including their ratings.  But I'm at a loss of what to do now.  I have all kinds of ways to get pictures from my phone.  But most of them do not save "Favorites" to the extent indicated in the iOS.  I know that Lightroom Mobile on my iPhone (just installed) does not recognize them.

One approach is to forget and re - note in Lightroom.  But maybe I could re-download with Photos, ask him to save the notes in the metadata, and then Lightroom will recognize?

My hope is to use Lightroom in the future, but I'm swamped, whenever I think about it.  (A separate issue is the flow of work in the future.  I think Lightroom mobile, rather than pictures of iOS, for ratings online.)

Thanks for all the help.  To close the loop on this request, here are the steps I followed.  They proved to be relatively simple, but a little slow.  I had six months of pictures that I had assessed only on my iPhone, but had not yet imported or processed in Lightroom. There is no overlap.  Otherwise, I would have probably re-rate them.

The steps:

  1. Download all the photos for the Photos App on OSX icloud.  (It was slow - he did it wireless, which took a few days.) "I couldn't understand a quicker way to synchronize directly without using iCloud.)
  2. In Photos, select the 'Favorites' album (which had more than 1000 ones I ' D "hearted" on my iPhone).  Add a "favorite" keyword for these photos.
  3. Export all the photos of Photos on my hard drive.  Confirm that the keyword went with it.
  4. Rename photos using ExifRenamer for names photo showed dates and times, as well as the name of the original file (if, for example, IMG_1234.jpg becomes 2015-12 - 08_21h58m25s_1234.jpg)
  5. Download videos from iPhone separately using ImageCapture and rename with ExifRenamer.  The reason is that, when exports of Photos, videos, information on the time of shooting is lost.
  6. Import in Lightroom
  7. Confirm that "Favorites" keyword is appeared in LR.  (For unknown reasons, I had to do twice the steps 3 to 7  I had started making an experience with some pictures, and it worked; but when I did all the pictures, key words had got lost somewhere between steps 3 and 6).

I will improve my workflow move forward to avoid having to redo all this!  I also realized that I won't stay in the Apple ecosystem (with all the photos in their own massive proprietary database) :-)

  • I installed windows 7 from XP and reinstall Firefox. However, I have lost the list of favorites. Is there a way I can recover the previous the "Favorites".

    Installed Windows 7 Professional custom in the required form XP. All the favorites were lost in Firefox and had to reinstall Firefox.
    Explorers has maintained the Favorite list, I had to explore - quite different from Firefox.
    Check the programs created separately by 7 to include the XP file. Favorites, registration is not relevant to the list lost on Firefox reinstall.
    Question: Is it possible that I can get back the original Favorites listing lost when the 7 install, or is it 'gone with the wind "?

    I have not read what is happening in an installation of XP to 7. You can find this file on your system:

    C:\Windows.old
    

    If so, you can find one of these:

    • C:\Windows.old\Documents and Settings\your user name
    • C:\Windows.old\Users\your username

    If so, your old given Firefox might be in there. To explore more, it would be useful to set windows to display the hidden files and folders. This article has the steps: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hidden-files

    Then search either:

    • \Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profilesyour usernameC:\Windows.old\Documents and Settings\
    • Your username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles C:\Windows.old\Users\

    Here you can find one or several folders named random semi. Who has most recently updated content is probably the one you want to restore from.

    Bookmarks only

    Go down the old bookmarkbackups folder and copy the last two backups in a location such as the desktop.

    The restore feature will replace the bookmarks in Firefox by default (and what you added since the reset) with all like bookmarks. If you want preserve newly added bookmarks, use the first, export function before the restore, then the import function later. The following articles have details:

    Success?

    Complete restoration

    This post has my suggested procedure to resurrect your old wide profile in your new installation of Firefox. Please note the use of the copy instead of move throughout the process. This allows you to try again if it fails somewhere along the way.

    Yesterday, I bought and downloaded the Upgrade Version of Lightroom 6 (order number AD018505688).  To complete the installation of the upgrade, I need the serial number for my Lightroom 5.  Unfortunately, I was able to locate only the installation but DVD no box with the serial number on this subject.  Proof of purchase, B & H Photo, for my 5 Lightroom is attached.  Please advise me on how I can proceed with the activation of my Lightroom 6 upgrade.  I think that my proof of purchase must be sufficient to provide you with directions on how to complete the installation of my Lightroom upgrade of version 6.  I'm sure you've had other customers with similar problems.

  • A "synch" iTunes always means that the device (iPhone) will be synchronized to the iMac?

    A "synch" iTunes always means that the files will be copied to or removed from the device (iPhone) to match what is currently on the computer to iTunes (iMac)?    And not the other way around?     In other words, if my iPhone has a photo that does not exist on the iMac, the photo will be deleted from the iPhone when the two are in sync?  Thank you!!

  • Restrictions does not not after ISO put 10.0.1 update with the new iPhone 7

    Restrictions does not after ISO put 10.0.1 update with the new iPhone 7 any which option of ranking app I don't choose no changes are made.  All the patches?

    Thank you

    Hello Launcher,

    Thank you for bringing your question about Restrictions here in Apple Support communities. My understanding of your question is that you change the Restrictions, but no change is noticed. I tried the same on my iPhone 6 Plus running iOS 10 and noticed a similar situation. Please allow me the opportunity to explain how the Restrictions is designed to work. First, I put my limitations for applications, do not allow Apps and together 4 +, which basically means everything beyond 4 + will be blocked from buying. Then I went to the App Store and the first app that caught my attention was NCIS: hidden crimes. This app is rated 12 + and is definitely an application I would not want my toddler to help. It is that Restrictions come into play. When I type on NCIS: hidden Crimes, the Get option is grayed out. Restrictions does remove all apps, songs, books, etc. from view, but it will prevent the purchase, download, and install all applications rated above the setting you choose when you set up restrictions. It's the help article that discusses the Restrictions and prevent purchases: Use Restrictions in order to avoid buying on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.

    I checked on the restrictions help articles, and I understand where it can be a bit confusing. In the help article Use Restrictions on iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, it says "You can use Restrictions, also known as parental control, to block or limit specific applications and features on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch." This means in fact that apps, features or services (rated above that helped you, or if you have turned off completely) can he no longer appears on the device if the restriction is activated and starts blocking them. I also tested this by activating Restrictions and turned the cursor for Safari to off. When I went back to the home screen, Safari doesn't show any more and I could no longer use it.

    I hope this helps to clarify how the Restrictions. If my understanding of the issue was not accurate to the issue that you are experiencing, I will be happy to pursue this issue with you. Please indicate exactly what you took measures, and what expectations you had or the some restrictions, applications, features, or services you are restricted. Thanks again and have a great rest of your day!

  • Loading the content of the old iPhone to new iPhone

    I was very disappointed when I tried to load the content from my old iPhone in my iPhone via iTunes. I received an error message saying something to the effect that my iPhone backup file was too old or obsolete. I had everything backed up my old iPhone an hour before. It would have saved me a lot of time if I could use this backup for my new iPhone. Very disappointing to have it loaded as a new iPhone (containing only the Apple iPhone applications.)

    Are you sure that you don't have a message indicating that the new phone could not use the old backup because the old backup contained a new version of the iOS the new phone has on it? You cannot restore a backup from a device running a newer iOS on a device with an older version of iOS on it. In this scenario, you must update the new phone to the latest version before you can use this backup.
