Why my images in Lightroom CC appear as gray shells in the Library tab, but display correctly in the tab develop?

I upgraded my iMac and Macbook Pro at El Capitan yesterday. I use an external hard drive on my iMac to store my photos and my catalog. My girlfriend did the same thing on the Macbook.

The Macbook works very well for it, no problem. The iMac would not my photos so that in the library with Lightroom, only illustrated square gray tab with file names, but create fine displays in the tab.

So I hooked up my external drive for the Macbook, and I got the same result. It must be specific to my files and not on the computer. Unfortunately I have no backup of the catalog. I thought that my external hard drive was back in a Time Machine, but it has been excluded.

Same result in both actual images on the external hard drive and also when you try to view the Collections. Any ideas? It may be a coincidence that it happened the day I upgraded to El Capitan. Or maybe not? Thanks for any help

You can try to rebuild all samples catalog from scratch.  They very rarely get corrupted.

Release of LR.  In your catalog file, it is a file ending with ".lrdata" - move to the trash. Restart the LR.  It will automatically rebuild your previews, that could take some time for large catalogs.  (Be very careful not to delete the file ".lrcat" - which is the appropriate catalog).

  • Whenever I export an image from lightroom, if I try to work on the original again once he said immediately that the file is not found.

    As noted above, immediately after you export an image in a file - if I want to go back to work on this image it just says that the file is not found. I have not changed the name of the file.

    Also, after work on an image in Photoshop and saves a copy to the lightroom folder - I don't find it anywhere. It works if I save on the original image from lightroom, but if I save a copy I can't find it in the file anywhere!

    Hi mayab13,

    How do you export the image from Lightroom, because export image from Lightroom keeps the image in Lightroom.

    Could you please tell me your step by step workflow.

  • Why the images in Photoshop actually appear half their size when the zoom is set to 100%?

    Each file that I opened in Photoshop appears half, it is supposed to - for example, a 300 x 250 image appears approximately an inch wide on my screen, tiny tiny. When I Zoom in to show the actual size, that's 200% and blurry, even if the pixels are well positioned. Including a screenshot is easier to explain.

  • Why Photoshop plugins not available when I open an image in Lightroom and select "Edit in Photoshop?

    Photoshop plugins are no longer available when I bring a picture in Photoshop from Lightroom.  When I work on an image in Lightroom and select "Edit in Photoshop", the image opens in Photoshop, but all Photoshop plugins are not available and, in fact, do not appear in Photoshop under filter at all.  However, when I open a picture directly in Photoshop, all plugins are available.  Why plugins suddenly vanish when putting an image in Photoshop from Lightroom?  I hope someone is able to help me fix this problem.  I am under Lightroom, Photoshop CS6 13.0.6 on OS X 10.10.5 6.3.

    I posted this question on the forums for PS and LR because I'm unsure as to who might be more appropriate.  I only experience this problem when making an image in Photoshop from Lightroom.

    Thank you very much.

    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.

    Victoria_Bampton wrote:

    Lab will import, Duotone don't.

    What I find very frustrating as a large part of my work as a portfolio is Duo/Tritoned in PS.

    Only the current workaround is to convert it to RGB and import again, unfortunately, is not always convert very well with a few curves setting necessary and "Posterization" gross / reduced quality sometimes appear. Not to mention the pain to find them all. I save a file text, pictures not imported by a top-level folder sychronisation LR and then manually chasing them.

    There is one other reason why LR needs to have a library that allows you to import a wide range of files and it can not handle internally, it simply forwards to another program, in this case PS. LR cannot change inside the PS files layers now, they need go to PS for this kind of editing, so why not support all image in a similar way. LR finally left the video files in the library, then why even exclude some PSD files.
