Why can't import of Nikon NEF files in Lightroom 6?

I bought Lightroom 6 recently, and he has now upgraded to the latest version. I use a mac as El Capitan.

Normally, I shoot and import the jpg files from my Nikon D5300, but thought I would try shooting RAW. However, despite the fact that the camera is supported and the help of Adobe pages confirm that there should not be a problem, the file will not import directly from the memory card.  Lightroom displays thumbnail images of photos - as usual - but then comes up error message, that the files were not imported because they could not be read. Nor NEF files copy as DNG on the hard drive.

I went through all the settings and spent hours reading the forums.  I know that I'm probably going to convert files, but it would be great if it worked right. What is the problem here?

Hi giuliamary,

Seems that your place of destination is not properly defined.

Make sure that the location of 'TO' in the top right of the import window is correctly set and a full read and write permissions.

  • Import d7200 Nikon .nef files into Lightroom 5.7.1

    Why Adobe don't make it easy on photographers and do so that you can directly import raw files into lightroom from Canon or Nikon or Olympus.  Why hassle free to your users and make them go through the dng converter.  This seems really bad business.

    The D7200 requires at least 6.0 Lightroom or Lightroom CC 2015.0. If you have this version and get this message then it could be that you used an earlier version of the Nikon software to upload your images.

    why I can not open my D7200 Nikon RAW files in lightroom 4.4, it'll work if I upgrade LR CC?

    Hi mikegcross,

    Nikon D7200 files are not supported in Lightroom 4.4

    Yes, it would work very well after that the Lightroom CC/6 upgrade or you can use Adobe DNG Converter to convert these files to DNG and then import into Lightroom.

  • Why aren't my import NEF files in Lightroom 5 more?

    I have a camera of Nikon D7100, I shoot RAW in.  I imported these NEF files into Lightroom 5 of my camera on previous occasions, but recently I wanted to import new photos.  The new photos show on the Lightroom Import screen, but when I click on the button import the software acts as he begins the process of import, but never done, finally showing a warning box saying the file could not be read.  What happens and how can I solve this problem?

    I'm not familiar with the Apple disk utility to repair permissions, but if it does not change the permissions on the destination folder, then she will not solve the problem. In addition, sometimes people accidentally change the destination folder, and all of a sudden, the record isn't what you think it is. The symptom of labour stopped is often associated with an accidental change in the destination directory.

    So my advice in this situation is to actually determine what file is specified as the destination in the import dialog box (cela there looking in the dialog box import and make a note of which folder it is; not to assume whether the folder that you have always used) and then change the permissions on this file WRITE permission.

  • I have a Nikon D 810 camera and Photoshop CS5.  I downloaded camera 8.8 Raw and DNG converter.  I can't open the raw (.nef) files, and treat them with the DNG Converter. What's not?

    I have a Nikon D 810 camera and Photoshop CS5.  I downloaded camera 8.8 Raw and DNG converter.  I can't open the raw (.nef) files, and treat them with the DNG Converter. What's not?  Thank you!

    As I said earlier, the DNG Converter works ONLY on files, not on files.

    Do not target the individual files.  Target Of THE FOLDER that contains them.

    Make sure that said FILE DO NOT contain any other files , you have already settled before, or your settings will be eliminated when re-converted to DNG.

    No need to write long explanations.  More messages are, the more chances you have of receiving relevant responses.

  • Why can't import files on my Mac NAVE?

    Message says that Lightroom is unable to read the files. I have Lightroom on a Macbook too and I was able to import the same NEF files without problem. I adjusted the permissions on the folder I want to be import to no avail.

    "Unable to read file" means that the destination directory has no WRITE permission

    To fix, you should:

    1. Determine the exact destination directory specified in the Lightroom Import dialog box (it's on the right, under Destination)
    2. Change the permissions on the current directory to write

    Otherwise, choose a different directory to import your photos into it has WRITE permission

    When you re-installed Photoshop, you also re-installed the version of Camera Raw comes with Photoshop - in other words came back you to an old version of Camera Raw, which does not support the D5100.

    The D5100 has first supported in Camera Raw version 6.4.

  • How can I import and export MBOX files in Thunderbird?

    Hi all, how can I import and export MBOX files in Thunderbird?

    I tried to install the add-on "ImportExportTools" but it seems that it is no longer recognized by Thunderbird, not the most recent generation.

    That this is the case, is no longer seems to be any official method of handling the files MBOX via Thunderbird, which is odd, given that Thunderbird itself announces that it is method of storage of email records is also MBOX files. It seems obvious that Thunderbird should natively support a file format import and export it is used internally

    If you know of a solution that does not rely on the conversion of traditionally third party utilities little reliable, please let me know.

    Thank you, KB_IT

    Hi there and thank you. I got it on 45.2.0.

    "" I haven't managed to make it work, but only by the search for available modules and following a request from 'import export tools' the "see all results" that work only then produced a success for the plugin in question and showed a button to install it.

    Installers hosted on the site of the third party do not work, nor their instructions to use the option "install file". work, which led to the creation of this ticket.

    Since then, I was able to do properly installed where it works very well.

    I hope that they are a regular feature. I intend to announce this as a best practice to my organization, in collaboration with Google fish, during the handling of the mbox files in Windows operating system.
