Can't drag photos from previous import to a folder in lightroom

after uploading photos into lightroom, I can't drag them from 'previous import' to another folder in Lightroom.  Anyone else experience this?

  • Can't see photos from previous Time Machine backup

    Here is my issue:
    I had two MacBook Pros (one old, one new).
    I bought an external hard drive.
    I backed up both the old and the new MacBook.
    I wiped and sold my old MacBook.
    I opened the backup of the old MacBook on the external hard drive in an effort to find my old photos.
    On the external drive, I went to Backups.backupdb > Users > Pictures.
    On the Pictures icon I see a red "caution" type icon.
    I click on the folder and get a popup that says, "The folder pictures can't be opened because you don't have permission to see its contents."
    How do I access all my photos that are in this "locked" folder?
    Thanks!!
    Jim

    You do not directly access Time Machine backups - you use Time Machine to restore them - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

  • Can't drag photos from Media Inspector/Iphoto onto photo grid page

    Each time I try to drag the picture pops back into iphoto list

    You may have an issue with your iPhoto Library.
    To test:
    1.) Hold down the option key
    2.) Launch iPhoto while still holding option
    3.) Click on create new
    4.) Save a new library
    5.) Go to File > Import to Library and import a few pictures from Macintosh HD > Library > Desktop Pictures
    __Try dragging a picture in iWeb now
    If it works then your iPhoto Library is damaged.
    1.) Hold down the option key
    2.) Launch iPhoto while still holding option
    3.) Choose your original iPhoto Library
    4.) Follow http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2638 to rebuild your library. Check off the bottom 3 options and rebuild. Then try iWeb again.
    Hope that helps.

  • Can't drag files from Organizer 13 to different folder

    I recently installed PSE13 on my PC running Windows 8.1.  I've also downloaded the latest update and even the patch which corrected the mouse scrolling problem. Now I have a new problem. When I'm in the Organizer, I am no longer able to drag files to a different folder. For instance, I have a folder on my desktop which contains the pictures and videos I downloaded from my camera. I am able to see these files within the organizer, and the organizer clearly shows that the files are contained within the folder on my desktop. What I want to do within the organizer is to move these files by dragging them to my Pictures folder. The program will no longer allow me to accomplish this task. I use to be able to do this with no problem, but not anymore!!  Is there a fix for this problem???  Thanks!  Jeff

    No, there is no error message. Your second question, asking if I first selected thumbnails, etc., prompted me to go back to the organizer to review exactly what happens when I try to select and drag a file to a new folder. And, because of your question, I have discovered new results: the first time I tried to select a picture, the normal hand appeared, but when I attempted to drag the file to a folder, all I got was the hand drawing a dotted rectangular box, and I could not drag the file to any folder. I tried this two more times with the same result. Then, I discovered that if I click on the far right side of the file thumbnail, I could actually drag it to a different folder. So, now I know precisely where to click on a thumbnail in order to successfully drag it to a folder. However, in previous versions, I could click anywhere on the thumbnail and drag without any problems. So, I will consider this problem "mostly" solved, and hopefully Adobe will address this problem on a future update. Thanks for your help!! Jeff

  • Can I drag stuff from my PCML to another fold

    Can I? 'Cos I want to back it up.

    Whatever you are trying to transfer (purchased craft patterns) has to have the ability to open somehow (like via a compatible app) on the iPad. In order to use your media, the iPad has to be able to open/access it in some way. What type of file is this anyways?

  • Can't drag photos to page

    With iWeb '09 I can't drag photos from iPhoto events. It worked with iWeb '08 very well. How do you reset iWeb '09?
    Milan

    It's an easy way to create multiple photo pages on one page. Each album points to a photo page and slideshow. That way you can have several albums on a page as the "index/contents" page for multiple photo pages/slideshows. This is an example. Useful for multiple slideshows of a trip, an album for each country/city, etc. However, those with IE are not allowed to view.

  • Problem importing photos after the new Photos update:  When I drag photos from my desktop, why don't they don't replace the previously imported photos in "Last Import".

    When I drag photos from my desktop to the new Photos icon, they don't replace the previously imported photos in "Last Import".

    After several attempts, I now find that this is working for me.  I wasn't able to open the IMPORT folder in Photos until I clicked on "Close" from File Menu. Once I was able to open the IMPORT folder and select the photos for import, the new photos appeared in "Last Import."

  • Why can't i drag photos from desktop to iphoto

    why can't i drag photos from desktop to iphoto all of a sudden?

    From iPhoto help:
    To import photos from a hard disk:
    Do one of the following:
    Drag one or more photos or a folder of photos from the Finder to the iPhoto main window.
    Drag one or more photos or a folder of photos from the Finder to the iPhoto icon in the dock.
    In iPhoto, choose File > “Import to Library.” Then select the photos you want to import and click Import.

    Hi People!
    Please help...I want to know how can i get photos from ipad to the computer, that were synchronized previously to ipad but from another pc that i dont have access anymore and these pics are now only found in this ipad and no other place.

    Hi Alan,
    Thanks for the help, but i've actually done that before.
    It does not help, because it only shows the photos on the camera roll and do not show the photos synchronized with that pc that i dont have access anymore.
    The photos/albums all appear on the ipad, i can see it without problems but i cant get them out of the ipad to save onto pc for backup.
    And i reaaly need it, as it is the only place that i actually have these photos now...

  • IPhoto - Can no longer drag photos from Library to created Albums..

    Up until last week I had no problem dragging photos from my Library to Albums I'd created on the right side. All of a sudden I can no longer drag photos and have to put photos in Albums by clicking on desired photos and creating Album with + button on bottom right corner. Why doesn't it let me drag photos anymore??

    HI gkkennedy and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
    I can't tell you why this is happening but I can offer up a possible solution. Sometimes the preference folders associated with applications become corrupted. Here's how to fix that. Locate this file and drag it to the Trash: com.apple.iPhoto.plist It's here: /Home/Library/Preferences. Open the Preferences folder and drag it to the Trash, empty the Trash and reboot. Launch iPhoto and see if you can drag photos from the Library to an album ... Don't worry... your Mac will create a new preference file for you.

  • Why can't I drag photos from Iphoto to my desktop?  I've been able to before?

    Why can't I drag photos from iphoto to my desktop?  I've been able to before.

    Because you have a problem and you need to fix it
    with no information except it does not work no one can give any more help than that - remember that we are jsut users like yourself and know nothing except what you tell us - which in this case was nothing except it does not work
    Some details like the OS version, version of iPhoto, what does happen and what does not ahppen, any recent changes, ect would at least give someone a chance to try to assist you

  • On my Ipad 2, I deleted my photos from camera roll, photo stream and imported photos. I did not know that my photos were also being deleted from my albums. Is there anyway I can retrieve these photos from back up or from Icloud ? Pierre

    On my Ipad 2, I deleted my photos from camera roll, photo stream and imported photos.
    I did not know that my photos were also being deleted from my albums.

    If you have a current iCloud or iTunes backup you can restore to that.

  • Can't access photos from prior tobut 1/27/10.  Thu ide to desktop.  Giant "!" appears.

    Can't access photos from prior to 1/27/11.  Thumbnails appear, but can't open, email or move them to desktop. Giant "!" appears.

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Try these in order - from best option on down...
    1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
    2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
    3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
    To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
    Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
    Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

  • How can i load photos from iphoto onto camera

    Hi,
    for some reason I can not load photos from iphoto back onto my canon camera anymore...
    situation: canon camera is connected to mac book pro. I have imported photos from the camera into iPhotos.
    unfortunately deleted them from the camera.
    now i would like to transfer them back onto the camera.
    It does not let me drag and drop the photos from iphoto to the camera.
    and I can not find a way to more the photos back.
    can anyone help?
    Thanks.
    k.

    The folks in the iPhoto community forum wait for questions like this. In any case from iPhoto select your photos. Then select export. Navigate to your USB sick and that's it.

  • Is it possible to drag photos from CDs to an iPhoto album?

    Is it possible to drag photos from CDs to an iPhoto album?  When I try, it creates a new event and also a "sub-album" in the original album. 
    I am trying to import old photos for my daughter's senior video and senior yearbook page.  I don't want to create a lot of new "events" in iPhoto.

    Drag them from the CD to a folder on the Desktop.  Then you can drag that folder into the open iPhoto window onto the Albums title in the left hand pane.  That will create an single Event and album with the same name as the folder. If you don't want the album just drag the folder anywhere into the open iPhoto window except the left hand pane.
