recover deleted photos from Lightroom

Two questions, I'm afraid (relatively new to LR)

I mistakenly removed (not deleted) some photos of LR.  They are still in the folder of the Solution Explorer, but is not visible.  After various researches, my understanding is that the only way to recover is to open a catalog backup and import.  That sounds good, if the last backup was just before removing the photos but I would have thought that you would lose all your work until finally back up.  There must be a simple way to inform LR than photos and yyyyy xxxx can be made visible again?  My other method, which is long-term, is to move the pictures, in Solution Explorer, in another file and import.  But... can obviously not the right way, anyone tell me what a muppet I am and tell me how a little easier?

Similar problem with retouching in PSP and want to save it in the original record of LR, as a different image name.  I'm doing this, but he does not see LR.  I have to go through the palaver of moving and in re-importing.

Thank you very much.

No there is no other way to do it, but if you did not major changes to your catalog since your last backup outside of the deletion of the files then you can go back to the last backup that you created.

  • Is it possible to recover deleted photos from icloud?

    Stupidly, I didn't know that the iCloud storage plan did not provide for storage.  When I backed up my phone, it is cleared of my photos from my account.  Is it possible to recover?  Any way to go back to a previous backup?  I don't even have a deleted folder recently on my photos page.

    OK, something added here. You said that when you have backed up your device, it erased your pictures.

    When you do an iCloud (or iTunes) backup, it backs up everything on your device. It does nothing for the data on the device. Thus, your photos were eliminated in a backup. Do you import your photos in a library on your computer? The process makes you wonder if you want to delete the photos?

    We need a complete description, step by step, what you were doing, and what happened.

    See you soon,.

  • I accidentally deleted my photos from lightroom. On my hard drive, the Lr catalogs, as well as the photos are still there. How to restore pictures?

    I don't know how it happened, except my mouse pointer in the left panel while I was trying to place a photo that I had just imported to another folder.

    My collections appear to be intact, although I've not really used this feature.

    With the DNG files in the 'My pictures' folder (always there). There seems to be several JPG files that I expected (obviously for me, they are JPG generated since the DNG files). How can I recover my photos in Lightroom? It would also be necessary to have the jpg back in Lightroom to avoid conflicts in the Lr catalog?

    I'd appreciate simple easy to understand the answers that I am not very technical interest. I got Lightroom since v4 and now CC photography plan, although I don't have a really good understanding of what I don't get much time to use it.

    Any help is greatly appreciated

    The library, go to:

    File > open recent

    Choose a catalog named so in the list, otherwise go to the catalog folder (normally found photos in) and double click (Ctrl-click) on the catalogue with the .lrcat extension

    If still not appear the pictures, go to a dated backup folder, when it was last working and launch of the .lrcat file.

    Hello

    Does anyone know how to recover deleted files from mysafe?

    I'm not 100% sure but I think that the data in this folder will not be deleted to bin recycled initially, but they will be removed immediately.
    How recovery them? Good question?

    Try to find some third party applications that can scan the HARD disk for deleted files. The point is that it will work if the FAT (File allocation table) is deleted only. This means that the file is on the HARD disk, but the disk HARD doesn t know where exactly.
    Hmmm... It is not so easy.
