Rename files in Lightroom 3 when importing (problems)

I can trouble importing files into Lightroom name where I want to custom their name - sequentially. I import the data to a folder on my hard drive in the folder that contains all of my files in lightroom. I am able to import and rename files in folders with ease. Others said Lightroom 3 couldn't have their name. Why? If I try to import and rename in LR2 I have no problem. I'm basically a Nikon generated file, say DSC0001. NAVE and rename in Ireland 07-30 - 08.NEF. Lightroom 3 cannot do. Anyone know why? Thank you.

I'm renaming all my during the import of the NAVE.

Here's how:

and it works very well.

There is another problem with the import you might encounter. The actual files on the file system and records, he presents in the library do not correspond regarding the rental structure. Try to pass will result in an error message that the file cannot be moved because it is already there. If you run this as well, just let me know for a solution. Hope that Adobe fixes this annoying very quickly.

  • 4.2 Lightroom crashes when importing

    I recently moved 4.2 Lightroom to my new PC in Windows 8. All modules work fine except when trying to import from my card or my PC drive, then the program grinds stops and crashes often. Program worked fine on my old Windows Vista system. The only things I moved from Vista PC were photos, Lighroom catalog file and Lightroom preference file. Support Adobe suggests trying to run Lightroom to different user on my PC, I tried, but no difference. If it makes a difference, LR is loaded on my C: SSD drive and photos, catalog, etc. on my D: drive. Any thoughts?

  • Lightroom crash when importing photos from an SD card using iMac 5 K.  Tried several cards, tried to restart, same problem.

    Since upgrading to LR 2015.2 my LR crashes each time I have import from SD card.  With the help of the new iMac, 16g memory.  Anyone have any ideas?

    Claes, thank you.  I was getting ready to try your tips and an update to LR (2015.2.1).  I installed that and doesn't crash anymore.  Thanks again.

  • Lightroom crashes when importing, iPhone a trigger

    The latest version of Lightroom CC, 2015.2.1, continues to be unstable, crashing constantly, taking usually Windows desktop down with it requiring a reboot of the entire system.

    The import module and its new GUI seems to be a trigger for this behavior. By clicking import, sometimes LR crashes immediately without displaying the import screen, sometimes he half-displays the screen to import as a transparency on the normal screen then freezes and sometimes the import screen becomes fully visible but then more often as otherwise LR and the crash even when Windows desktop.

    Although this behavior may happen at any time, try to import photos from an iPhone ensures a fatal full system shutdown.

    2015 Lightroom versions have all been more unstable than previous versions. These problems seem to be centered around video issues. I have an AMD Radeon graphics card and had to rollback repeatedly last year drivers (as well as uncheck LR graphics options) for LR to work. And each new version of LR seems to require to start from scratch to get the program, the operating system and graphics card all talk to each other. This time, they're not talking.

    Adobe, what do you think? Similar problems are reported on the net.

    Any help with this mess is greatly appreciated.

    Hi ejbSFO

    Greetings!

    Although this behavior may happen at any time, try to import photos from an iPhone ensures a fatal full system shutdown.

    If the accident is specific to the iPhone, it is because Lightroom performs an analysis of all the devices where the pictures would be. He has the problem where it cannot correctly identify a smartphone as a "hard disk". So, if you set your iPhone to connect as a support MTP device. The question could not arise.

    2015 Lightroom versions were more unstable than previous versions

    You can restore the version 2015.1.1. Refer to restore an earlier version of update

  • File of incorrect date when importing devices

    Hi all

    I have Photoshop elements 10.0, I use this software since version 6, but I have a problem after installing the latest version (10):

    When I use IMPORT from-> camera MEMORY

    I've already selected CREATE a subfolder WITH the DATE OF CAPTURE-> FORMAT yyyy mm gg

    Now I have the same setting, the program saves an incorrect date, so he spends abdelkader gg mm too if I'm delivering yyyy mm gg

    The strange thing is renamed it correctly the single image so gg mm yyyy is really yyyy mm gg

    It's a very big problem because I have to rename every single folder manually; o

    I think that it is a bug in the program (it happens now on a new pc and before on another pc).

    Someone noticed this thing?

    Thank you

  • Lightroom eat when importing space of C: drive

    Guys,

    When I import pictures my C drive is exhausted very quickly in space. I have only 5GB spare parts because it's a SSD drive and when I import about 10 photos that I find myself with only 200 MB! It is causing all sorts of problems and I was wondering if there was a way to move the cache to import (which I assume is the problem) to another drive?

    Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    Yes, you can put the cache on any player, as long as it is a reasonably quick drive / with a fast connection.

    I would not put the cache on an external USB drive because the USB connection is too slow. But the internal drives are beautiful and external eSata drives are very good.

    Just go > Edit > Preferences > files Management tab. At the bottom, is the section for and on the side right, you can the location.

    You will probably find even that LR works faster when the Cache is on a drive other than the C drive where (I assume) LR resides.

    One last thing: If you have enough put readers cache not on the same drive when the LR catalog is - who will also accelerate LR.

  • Lightroom crashes when importing desktop image

    I have LR 2015.6.1 on an iMac. Import from a SD card works fine. But when I try to import an image from my office (a simple JPG), LR crashes. I have to force quit LR and kill a process called "dynamiclinkmediaserver" to get everything back to normal.

    Someone at - it an idea about it? Thank you.

    Hi LexvanOorspronk,

    Could you please check what is the destination on when you import from office?

    Also, try to create a new catalog and see if the problem is reproducible.

  • 6.6 Lightroom crashes when importing each time

    Hi I have a relatively new version of Lightroom 6.6, purchased in March 2016. It is basically useless, because it will no more allow me to import the photos to change.

    Description of the problem: as soon as I click on the button IMPORT, a dialog box appears indicating LR has stopped working and will close.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled the program several times, and there is no change in operational capability. It crashes always everytime.

    Really nice Adobe have no support real tech for this program.

  • Option to rename files on import n LR 4.3

    Hello

    I am new to LR4 and watch the tutorial video, I noticed that the option to rename the files during the import seems to be missing?  Or am I missing something?  Thank you.

    The option to rename files is missing when you select up in the center of the import dialog box.

  • Sectors lost 'Rename files' and 'Destination' on the right side of the module «Import, library»

    Not sure why this is happening.  I uninstalled and installed LR3 three times on my laptop computer Dell running WINDOWS 7.  I have 8 GB of RAM and a 750 HD concert.  The processor is an Intel Core i5.  As required, I have enough material to run LR3.  I installed the updates while I am running LR 3.6.  For some reason, I am unable to locate the sections of 'Destination' on the right column and of "change of file name."  The "file management" and "Apply when importing" are visible.  I am enrolled in the program with Adobe and think I have all the current updates.  The program is loaded in 64-bit mode.

    Someone has to meet this problem before?

    I couldn't get the program works correctly without being able to have access to elements missing for download.

    Move or copy mode, try right click on one of the headings on the right side and choose Show all.

  • My changes to JPEG files in Lightroom export not - help please!

    Hello

    I did a big session today and shot all in JPEG format (by accident). Worked on them in the same way as I would with RAW files in Lightroom, but when I export them, the changes I made do not seem to export.

    Could someone please give me a shout, I fear I have to redo everything in Photoshop (which wouldn't be as good in any case).

    Thank you!!

  • Rename files using find and replace

    Is it possible to rename the files in LR CC to aid search and replace? For example, I would like to rename all selected photos by replacing the IMG_ by ABC_ string. It is such a basic need that I can't believe that LR does not support.

    LR filename + original number would almost be an acceptable substitute, but it fails if the file name is IMG_9999_HDR because Adobe assumes that the number of original file is always the last string in the name of the file and fails to find the number if is not at the end.

  • Cannot rename files on import when the make a second copy is checked

    I just got the phone with Lightroom help for this problem. They have tried many things to fix it but couldn't if they are increasing it to their most senior developers. Tried what follows, nothing fixed it:

    • changed the permissions
    • created a new catalog
    • disabled all the plugins
    • created a new administrator of Windows 10. user
    • reinstalled Lightroom (2015.4)

    They call me talk to the rear in 48-72 hours...

    Work-in-progress autour are to make the name change after importing files.
