Problem with importing photos to Lightroom CC

Hello

When I try to import photos from my hard drive to Lightroom CC, it just hangs. I kill the importation and he said: no photos or something like, but then LR does not start again until what I restart the PC. I tried this several times with the same result

I think that the catalog can be altered, although not say so LR. I don't know how to restore the catalog even though I have backups. I tried to open one of the backups directly by navigating, unzip the file, but got a similar result.

A few questions come to mind:

How to restore the catalog

the catalogue is very large - it's time to archive some of the old photos - the best way to do it?

Try to remove the videos from the camera card or a record of entry and import again.

You didn't answer my question about thumbnails appear in the Lightroom Import dialog box

Photos and some videos open OK in Windows Explorer.

This means that the other videos do not open OK in Windows Explorer?

  • Problems with importing photos using Windows - Photo files are corrupted in the Gallery windows

    I use Windows to import images from my camera (Canon Rebel EOS) to the computer (HP) and display them in the Windows Photo Gallery.  Recently, the photos in the Gallery become corrupt once downloaded, which means they download fine then when I open "Images" to see in the Gallery, they photos each are corrupted with ribbons of various colors, or the image is cut into strips to compensate.  It didn't happen when I uploaded the same photo files to another computer so I know that is not the fault of the camera or individual files.  I scanned for a virus (I use AVAST).  Can I fix this, or is there any other software I should use to download files?  I'm just a MOM ol ' ordinary looking to transfer the zillions of photos that I take my children.  Help!

  • To import Photos into Lightroom

    I'm unable to import photos into lightroom on my Mac 5. It will be the first segment of unit import photos and the last bit, but leave out the middle section of photos. I thought it was because I changed the settings on my camera one day and those pictures of that day could not be imported, but it did just the same thing when I tried to import photos from my iPhone. It would incorporate pictures from October and December, but none since November. I tried to uncheck "do not import suspected duplicates", but which did not help either. I can import these pictures on my computer, but not in Lightroom. Lightroom is how I organize and classify all my photos, so it is a big problem for me. How can I fix?

    This message indicates that you have not permission in writing to the destination directory.

    So:

    1. Determine the destination directory... go in the Lightroom import dialog box and note the location of this directory specified on the right side under "Destination".

    What is the destination folder that the date be underneath?  In the top right it says users who suggests, you try to put the photos on top of your username instead of under your username.  Maybe that's the problem.  So change your folder in the drop-down list at the bottom right of what it should be rather than users, and if you're going to show us the destination of your photos at least scroll through the list of folders down right so that we can see which is the white highlight.

  • problem importing photos to Lightroom CC

    I managed to import about 75% of my camera card and then LR ceased to import (I waited several hours it ends). I canceled the import and received a message 'no photos found.' I tried to import several times more, then I closed LR and restarted my computer and tried again.

    When I buy LR to import photos, I opened my camera card and the remaining photos appear as blank thumbnails in case of grid, but when I click on the photos I can scroll and view the content of each. I tried several times to import these photos and import of LR seems to freeze everything and no pictures imported.

    I tried to import directly on the camera drive and a folder on my desktop, I created. Both with the same result.

  • I have problems to import photos from the Canon EOS 70 d in Lightroom on a macbook pro

    When I try to import photos from my Canon EOS70D in Lightroom, first I get "Preview not available for this file" for all files on the camera. If I check a few photos to import Lightroom said then that's important but the pictures never import and eventually I have to cancel the import. I tried to import a picture and this same thing is happening.

    I don't think that is the cable or the camera that I can import into iPhoto from the camera using the same cable.

    All advice appreciated.

    It's ok thank you, I found the problem. I have to let the camera connected to the laptop for a while. Finally, all files have thumbnails, and then I can import them. I tried before import them too quickly.

  • Importing photos into Lightroom CC

    I always had problems trying to import my photos into Lightroom. I have read many articles on it and watched many tutorials, and none of them does not seem to work for me. I'm working on a Mac OS (El Capitan) and I use the Photos App on my computer. I take photos for a living, and I want some "records" of the Photos App to import into Lightroom so I can change, so I want to save them back in the 'File' or 'Album' from the Photos App. I'm frustrated that there is no means to achieve and that Lightroom is so different from Photoshop and other items.

    If someone could help with this, I'd appreciate it greatly - thank you!

    Hi shelbys.

    Well, you cannot migrate your images directly from App Photos in Lightroom as opening.

    You export your App Photos images and save it somewhere on the machine, then Lightroom would be able to see your images and can add/import your images into the software so that you can edit them later.

    In addition, you can refer to the same discussion: Re: How do I import photos into Photos of Yosemite Mac app LightroomCC?

    Kind regards
