Some photos are not selected when I try to import ("do not import possible double images" is turned OFF!)

Some photos are not selected when I try to import. I used Lightroom 5 since it launched and do not have this problem until a month ago (select: "do not import possible double images" is turned OFF!). I really have to control my import in the opposite case, it miss a few images, but don't know what to do when the picture is not selected. How can I import the correctly without making stuff and that's why spoil my archive carefully planned? My archive is too packed and I have double numbers ore something? What I need Lightroom 6?

Thank you very much for your help!

Best regards, Enith

"Photos are indeed grey, but the imported photos are new assignments, so this:" ","then it means that you have previously imported photos in Lightroom, and so it is not necessary to import them again ', is not the case.

While you are probably right, if the photos were just captured, the problem is that Lightroom think that these are the same pictures that were previously imported, and so until you can determine why Lightroom think that you won't progress.

You need search for any of these photos in your Lightroom Catalog. Follow these 4 steps in order

  1. In the catalog Panel on the left side of the library Module, click all photographs
  2. Develop all batteries (picture-> stacking-> develop all batteries)
  3. Disable all filters (once or twice Ctrl-L)
  4. Search for one of these photos by file name

    New to Lightroom 6.  Were able to import photos previously. Now when I try to import Photos and videos, I specify a folder that contains a mixture of NEF and JPG images, and thumbnails will appear.  However, they are grayed out. When I hit Import, I get a message that says no. Photos import active.

    This means that you have previously imported these pictures/videos into Lightroom, and you must not (and are not allowed to) import them again.

    Go to your library Module (not the import dialog box) and find the photos, then you can make use of them in any way you want in Lightroom.

  • my computer can't find all my photos from my phone when I try to import

    I have an iphone 6, I got an iphone 4S & I imported all my photos and contacts ect. to my iphone 6. After the transition to my iphone 6, pictures on my phone had to load whenever I tried to display their & if I was not connected to wifi that they wouldn't load even if I had LTE service. Recently, I tried several times to download my pictures from my phone on my Toshiba laptop. As usual I plug my phone to my computer using the USB cord and a screen will appear then asks if I want to import my photos and it gives me an opportunity to do with windows live photo gallery and other things. I chose windows live photo gallery. My computer and the phone through the process of finding my photos but it found only a small amount of my photos. I have 900 photos and he finds only 8 of my most recent. I think that it is because these recent pictures are loaded. But I don't know how to do all the 900 pictures load and import. I also think it may have something to do with my storage.

    Greetings Lily1616,

    From what I understand, your iPhone is not load your photos immediately and they will not load when not Wi - Fi. When you try to import from your phone to the computer, it loads only 8 pictures when you have 900 +.

    It sounds like you could use iCloud photo library and this could explain the reason for your photos to act like they are.

    When you turn on iCloud photo library on your Mac or iOS device, your photos and videos will download once you connect to the Internet with a Wi - Fi connection and your battery is charged. You can see the status and pause the download for a day, when you do the following:

    • On your iOS device, tap Settings > iCloud > Photos.

    Depending on your Internet connection speed, the time it takes for your photos and videos to appear on the Photos app on iCloud and all your devices can vary. Make sure you put on iCloud photo library on each device.

    This information is in this article: iCloud Photo library FAQ - Apple Support

    Go ahead and check if you have this option and join iCloud.com on your computer and sign in. Here you can select photos and see if they show up there. If they do, you can go ahead and download pictures from there on your computer.

    See you soon

  • When you try to import photos, I get an error that says that the preview is not available for this file.

    When you try to import photos I get an error that says: Preview is not available for this file. Then when I try to download these files, a gray box returns for each photo with the name of the file, and this error message -Preview is not available for this file but no picture. The files are JPEG files. I use Lightroom CC help?

    Some additional information. I received these photos of my granddaughter of my son with Dropbox. I checked the files under properties and found that they were listed as "some blocked properties" so I checked the box to 'unlock' and click on apply. The blocked message went away. Then, I took the original photos out of the folder of file they were in. I went back to LR and made sure those grey boxes with the Preview is not available for this file was missing. Then I went to the new files with the status of unlock in a new folder and tried to import into LR... same thing happens again! UGH

    Hi rsobieski,

    Could you please copy the images of Dropbox in a new folder on the computer/pictures folder.

    Also, then try again to import images into Lightroom and also please check if you have read and write permissions on the images.

    Kind regards

  • Impossible to download book of the Cloud and the photos are not synchronizing

    I'm unable to download a book from cloud and my iPhone on my iPad. I also find that my photos are not sync for my iPad.

    It would be useful that you explained what happens when you try to download the book.

    It would also help if explain you what you mean when you say that your photos are not sync to your iPad. Synchronization is the process of connecting your iPad to your computer to move the content back, and that the content will include photos.

    If you use iCloud photo library and they photos do not appear on the iPad, it's a different process which would be run in a different mode.

  • Some photos does not appear in Photos.app

    Hi all!

    Once again: I already posted this question, but it disappeared. A little bit Wired, because my question is about the pictures that still exist in the folder 'Masters', but not in Photos.app

    I restarted Photos.app twice with ALT + CMD to rebuild the database of photo with nothing doesn't. Is their something I can do? The lack of photos are not deleted or in a hidden folder...

    Thanks for your help

    Your original question is still there, Marek: library of repair works is not on the Photo

    See my response to this discussion (link to this post):

    I see a lot of my original photos in... Images/Photos Library.photoslibrary/Masters/2016/... who are not in pictures.

    What is photo library that uses pictures when you launch?  Check the name of the photo library opened on the pictures > Preferences > General:

    The path to the currently-open library will be displayed at the top of the window.

    If Photos used to try different library to open your library in the folder images by double clicking it.  Fix library will repair the library that was used last.  You may have repaired another library.

    .. are not in pictures.

    Have you checked the "Recently deleted" and the album "hidden pictures"?

    Search for the file name of one of the missing photos in the Photos.  If the Photos are in the masters record for 2016 they were imported in 2016, but the capture date may come another year, and they can be in a moment for another year and show among the photos of 1970 or more.

    =====================================
    MP3 files can be problematic in Movie Maker...
    Best bet would be to convert the files to the. WMA
    format before you import into Movie Maker.

    There are many converters available on the net... the
    the following link is an example:

    (the file you want to download is: > FFSetup295.zip<>
    (FWIW... installation..., you can uncheck
    ('all' boxes on the last screen)
    (Windows XP / Vista / 7)

    First... after the download and installation of Format
    Factory... you can open the program and
    left click on the toolbar, the "Option" button and
    "Select an output folder to" / apply / OK.
    (this is where you find your files after they)
    are converted)

    Drag and drop your music files on the main screen...

    Select "while"WMA"/ OK...

    Click on... Beginning... in the toolbar...

    That should do it...

  • When you try to import data from csv address book, less than half of the csv fields are available for mapping.

    I exported my Outlook contacts to a CSV file. When you try to import the CSV file into Thunderbird, only some CSV fields are listed in the field mapping tool. More important still, e-mail addresses aren't in the list.

    There is a long discussion of importing csv here:

    https://getsatisfaction.com/mozilla_messaging/topics/importing_windows_live_contacts

    Essentially, you must edit the csv in an editor of spreadsheet or csv file to make it compatible with the address book of TB.
