Smart collections lost after loading LR 3.3

Since the update to LR 3.3, I can't access my smart collections.  The tiltles collection and the number of images is still there, but when I click on one that I get the message "the file is not found", but the files have not been moved.  I can re - establish links or I have to go through the laborious process of re - create?  Any help would be appreciated.

You must go in the top-level folders, right-click on it (in the folders Panel) and choose "Update folder location". Navigate to the location of right and press ENTER.

  • Lost smart collections

    I tried to export a collection of photos on my desktop on an iMac. He said the successful exportwas so I closed the program.  The photos were not on the desktop and when I went back in lightroom that all my 'smart' collections have disappeared except for one.  It has happened, but they reappear magically at the end of 5 minutes.  This time, they have not... any suggestions!

    In Lightroom (not your operating system), browse to the file-> open the new item and select each catalog here until you find the one with smart collections.

    First of all, after a crash, remove preferences, because they can be corrupted when an incident (hold down the command and option during startup, and then click on remove preferences).

    Second, are you sure that you:

    (1) published in a project and not in the chronology of the clip?

    (2) look at the chronology right? Select a smart collection of 'Projects' library - do you see the project it?

  • How can I transfer my smart collections of the old hard disk on a hard disk new?

    I installed a new SSD in my Macbook Pro.  I used Migration Assistant to move the application, and I manually copied my libraries.  In the transfer, I lost all my smart collections (I got a few tens of individuals).  I still have the old drive with the installation of LR intact, so I can access it if there is a way to copy on the parameters of my collection.  Thanks if advance for any guidance.

    rpandita: you must export this collection in the catalog and then move it to another computer.

    I believe that acpft24 has copied with success of its catalogue and photos on the new diskette but wants to transfer the definitions of its smart collections, not the pictures that result to invoke smart collections.  Catalog export won't.

    ManiacJoe: Smart collections are found in the LR catalog. By going to the new HD, you need to move your images and catalogue LR and all your LR presets. http://www.lightroomqueen.com/how-move-Lightroom-to-new-computer/

    If indeed the goal is to transfer the definitions of smart collections, then the referenced article will tell you how to do this, in addition to all your other preferences and presets.  I don't know why the Migration Wizard does not do it right, but of course, it didn't.

    Note that the definitions of smart-collection is not stored in the correct catalog, but in LR preferences file.  You can see the contents of this folder by preferences > Presets > show Lightroom Presets folder.   The "Smart Collection Templates" subfolder contains files text .lrtemplate, one for each smart collection.

  • problem with filter smart collection

    Hello

    I know that this question could be covered widely in various forums, but I can't find what I'm looking for.

    The issue I'm having is that I used the quick Collection folder to temporarily store all the photos that I have edited for printing.  All of a sudden all the photos of this quick collection have broken links (! in the upper right corner).  I found these pictures in the real LR folder and they are fine.  How is that possible?

    instead of fixing all the links in the quick collection, I would like to use a smart collection just find all my photos edited in the original folder that has the tact in links.  However, when you filter for "adjusted photos" the smart collection keeps giving me photos with broken links, probably from my quick collection, not those of the foler.  How do I know the smart collection to search only in one folder I want?

    I hope that this logic... I can clarify if necessary.  Thank you!

    Hi, you seem to be confused about the importance of brands of exclamation noticed on the images.

    This means that the catalog as a whole has lost track of these images.

    The most likely reason is that they have been moved to another location by using the operating system or one application other than Lightroom or they are on an external hard drive where the assigned drive letter changed (a Windows problem).

    I do not understand your comment on find them in the "real" LR folder

    Images are not stored in Lightroom, either.

    The catalog contain references to the location of your pictures.

    It is these references that are spread over the images showing the exclamation points.

    If the Smart collection has been implemented correctly then it will want to include all the images that have been published for printing, but the Smart collection is SEO information found in the catalogue and so it will include images of which the catalogue has lost track of--exactly as you found it.

  • Can LR5 always create a Smart Collection or published a smart folder based on keywords?

    I have a smart Collection based on keywords imported LR4, but when you create a new Smart Collection or a published smart folder, the choice of "Key words" is missing from the context menu rules!

    Is this a bug?

    I am trying to create a smart folder that is published, but this question caught me.

    I think you can still do. If I correctly get what you're after: begin the process of creating the smart collection and when you see the settings dropdown to choose to create your collection, do scroll down to "Other metadata" click on it and you will see "Key words" it. I hope this helps

  • Registration of smart Collections

    Hi all

    I've recently updated for CS4 to CS6, when I uninstalled my cs4 package I realsed I had just lost all my smart collections in Bridge. However a colleuge of my friends has these same smart collections implemented in its CS6 Bridge, so I was wondering if theres any way to export or save the secruit collections, so I can import it to my bridge? Or all saved hidden preference that I can copy?

    It's going to take a couple of hours to implement all the collections any advice would be appreciated.

    See you soon.

    Collections are just a bunch of address to your photos.  So no, you cannot transfer their.  Smart collections are now somewhat better, but they are always also address locations for photos and not the photos themselves.

    You can enter the location of your CS4 and copy the collection and paste there CS6 and see if it works.  This location is C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge CS4.  Note that appdata is a hidden file.

  • Status of metadata in smart collections

    Their smart collection configuration in LR4.1 to show all the images that must be saved to disk - "metadata status is not updated.

    After saving images sometimes certain images will always come back as if they were not updated.  For example, I saved a single image 6 times on this smart copllection drive, but every time after that seconds back again as if she must still be saved.

    Tried to change some develop elements to force real change, but this does not a problem either.  Any thoughts?

    With the help of 16 GB Ram, snow leopard Mac.

    Thank you

    After the recording of metadata (if not make a mistake), read the metadata. (there is a bug in Lightroom, and which often clears the symptoms of the problem).

  • Dragging images from a Smart Collection in a regular Collection

    Before the introduction of LR3, I worked regularly images in a Smart Collection. then I dragged the selected images in a regular Collection for final treatment. I've now upgraded to LR3.2. After the move, the 'Smart' key word has been changed, automatically eliminating the image of the Smart Collection. Now, LR3, I seem not to be able to do that, can't find any permutation of the shift, Alt, or Ctrl keys. In fact I can't 'drag & drop' images of library in any Collection! Why Adobe has removed such a simple but useful device without apparent alternatives available? Has anyone found a simple way to do this?

    Thank you.

    I don't think that Adobe has changed anything here. Unfortunately, little has been done with the collections and smart collections between versions 2 and 3.

    My guess is that you drag the box around the thumbnail. Make sure that you drag the thumbnail itself.

  • Google darkened area after loading Firefox 9.01

    After loading firefox 9.01 I see not a letter I type into a Google search box, which makes it just completely useless for me. I tried on IE and it works fine, so I think that the problem must be with Firefox. I need to be able to see what I type in.

    In fact, it does not. The only thing that worked was when Firefox made an update which should have solved this problem.
