Lightroom not showing all photos avail for import

About a week ago, I tried to import some new photos into LR 3 (3.4.1 to be exact), and the import dialogue does not show all the photos that should be available for import.
The files are on my hard drive and there are approximately 200 photos in the file folder. When I open LR's import dialogue to import the photos (after navigating to the proper location to import from of course), it shows me 17 of the photos in the file folder! I selected "all" instead of "new" to see if that would make a difference and it did not. I made sure I did not have "do not import suspected duplicates" checked, even closed LR and rebooted my computer.... that didn't work.
I tried creating a new catalog to see if that would fix the issue, and it did not.
I'm not sure what else to try, or if there is a known fix out there (having a heck of a time finding one in my internet search!)
Any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks!

Okay, so for giggles I tried checking in the Bridge to see if that changed anything... and it only showed the few files too. So I decided to "select all" and noticed at the bottom left that it listed the balance of my photos as "hidden." I have no idea how my files got hidden, or why it was only some and not others... but at least it's all fixed now and I can get back to what I need to do in LR!

  • New photos not showing up as available for import

    I have a relatively new collection. I imported a shoot as usual. I edited a photo in another program and saved it as a jpeg to the same folder as everything else. I thought that edits were automatically recognized. However, it wasn't. And when I try to import the edit, it doesn't show up as an available file to import. Windows Explorer shows the file in the folder, but Lightroom 3.2 will not show that it is in the folder.
    Interestingly, all edits from a previous import now have the same time stamp for each edit.
    Any ideas? Thanks.

    So, it's Photoshop CS3.
    Anyway, from what I understood, you open the photo directly form the disk in Photoshop. That is, you don't use Lightroom to open the photo in Photoshop. It just doesn't work this way. As I said above, Lightroom has no way of knowing when to import a photo that has been saved in Photoshop.
    If you insist on using Jpegs for derivative files, your best way to go is indeed using Synchronize.
    However, I'd advice to use a lossless format, like TIFF or PSD. Why leave image quality on the table (as Jeff Schewe likes to say)? Storage is cheap and you're editing only your best photos in Photoshop anyway.
    And as an additional benefit, you can automate the process of importing derivatives:
    Configure what file type to use in Prefs: TIFF or PSD, bit depth, color space etc.
    Select an image in Lightroom and hit Ctrl+E.
    The derivative file is created in the chosen format and opened in Photoshop.
    Edit and save in Photoshop.
    Voila! Your edited derivative is already in Lightroom.

  • Aperture is not showing all photos in photo stream.

    Aperture is not showing all photos in photo stream.  I have re-set photo stream from within the aperture app, but it only downloads a small fraction of my photo stream.  Any ideas?

    Sorry but you're wrong, as the article that you quoted pointed out
    Since your Mac has more storage than your iOS devices, your photos automatically download and your Mac keeps every photo from your Photo Stream by default

  • When i go into finder   click on pictures why dose it not show all photos just lets me open iphoto

    when i go into finder   click on pictures why dose it not show all photos just lets me open iphoto 

    Ralph9430 offers a good suggestion.  But you may need to do this before taking his advice:
    Check in iPhoto's Preferences (which you can open from the iPhoto menu).  Look in General, and make sure "Connecting Camera Opens" is set to "Image Capture").
    If it is set to "iPhoto", you won't be able to get to Image Capture easily.

  • Events not showing all photos.

    I am running iPhoto '11 on OSX 10.7.4  Some events are not showing all the photos.  The files are there when I look in finder at the original file.  I've tried rebuilding the library but that didnt work. Any suggestions?

    No I have not... I'm hoping for an upcoming update release soon...

  • Photo Sharing not showing all photos via Apple TV 3rd Gen

    Hi
    Have Apple TV, 3rd gen, latest update of the software. Running 10.8.5 on a mid 2009 MacBookPro. When I select a few smart albums from iPhoto 09 (v. 8.1.2) and then select those albums to share/stream to my Apple TV via iTunes (11.1.3) only a few of the photos show up; in the 3 albums I have selected to share/stream there are in excess of 500 photos. However, when I have my photos selected as the slideshow/screensaver in my Apple TV, only a few photos show up, less than 100, and then the slide show starts to repeat itself.
    Any ideas why it's not showing every photo in the albums I have selected to stream/share?
    Thanks, and Merry Christmas!
    David

    Are you mixing slideshows and screen savers up, screen savers won't show all the photos in a large collection.

  • New outlook install not showing all email histories for some users

    Hello,
    I recently installed outlook 2013 on a windows 8 machine connected to exchange. I noticed it is not showing all the email histories for a particular user.  Is there an index that needs to be rebuilt or something?  Some users it shows a
    bunch emails for others it only shows one or two.  Thanks in advance.  

    Hi,
    Do you mean only one particular user couldn't view all messages from Outlook?
    From this sentence "Some users it shows a bunch emails for others it only shows one or two.", it seems that this issue affect some users, not only one.
    If only one user is affected by this problem, you can follow the steps below to check result.
    1. Please check if it displays all mails in OWA.
    2. And please switch between Outlook cached mode and online mode to check result.
    If some users are affected, please check database index status.
    Best regards,

  • "Library" view does not show ALL photos

    My "Library" view is not showing me the last 2 rolls I imported. If I click on the specific year views, I can see the photos, but I expect all photos are displayed in the "Library" view.
    While still running iPhoto 5, I imported a roll of images from disk that included photos taken at the end of Dec 2005 and in Jan 2006. These are the photos that do not show in the "Library" view. This was happening with iPhoto 5 and is still happening with iPhoto 6.
    Any suggestions for getting all photos to shwo in the "Library" view ?
    Thanks,
    Eliot

    Thanks -- I figured out my problem...
    Since iPhoto now seems to group items into "rolls", I had imported images from several different dates. The first image was from Sep'05, so it placed ALL the images imported, even those from Jan'06, with the Sep'05 photo in the middle of of my "Library" view.
    Is there a way to have the "Library" view sort in date order instead of by imported roll ?
    Thanks,
    Eliot

  • Facebook albums not showing all photos in iPhoto

    I'm trying to export all of the photos (several hundred) from Facebook to iPhoto. Facebook is having difficulty creating an archive, and rather than wait for them to fix whatever that problem is I'm trying to import them directly using the Facebook connector in iPhoto.
    I added the account and it shows up in the list of Web albums. However, when the account is opened, only three albums are present (instead of six) with a total of five photos (instead of hundreds). Does anyone have any suggestions for what to check to make sure that iPhoto is connecting properly and how to get the photos from Facebook imported into iPhoto?
    Please don't suggest downloading each photo individually, I don't have time to right click several hundred photos one at a time.

    The only Facebook albums that will appear in iPhoto will be manually created ones. Auto-created albums by other apps or Facebook itself (Instagram, Mobile Uploads, Wall Album, etc) won't appear. Are those the ones missing?

  • LaCie Mini not showing up as available for TM

    I have been using a LaCie Mini 500 gb drive as my time machine drive for a 6 months. Now it does not detect the drive properly when I plug it into my computer. It was recognizing it yesterday, but it would become available during the backup. Today it is not recognizing it at all, meaning it does not show up in finder.
    Please help.

    See if you can repair it, via #A5 in the Time Machine - Troubleshooting *User Tip,* also at the top of this forum.
    If it doesn't appear in Disk Utility's sidebar, be sure all connections are tight and secure; try other ports and cables.
    If it has it's own power supply, be sure it's plugged in to a known good outlet. While it's plugged-in, hold it to your ear. They've had a "run" of bad power supplies, and apparently the bad ones make some noise. One poster described it as a "squishing" noise, whatever that is. If so, contact LaCie.
    If all else fails, the drive has probably failed but at 6 months old, it should be covered by warranty . Contact your retailer or LaCie.

  • ICloud photo stream does not show all photos

    I have 1000 photos is my photo stream, however on my Apple TV I just setup, I can only get 322 to show up in the iCloud Photo Stream. I've tried restoring and setting it up again, but I have the exact same numbers of photos.
    Is there a reason I can only see 322 out of 1000 photos in my photo stream on the Apple TV?

    I noticed the Apple TV was not displaying my photo stream after the update to 6.0. Here is what I did to get it to start displaying my photo stream again.
    On your Apple TV go to Settings>iCloud
    Click on iCloud Photo Settings
    Turn off both the My Photo Stream and Photo Sharing options then turn them back on again
    Select Photo Stream from the Settings menu and navigate to select the photo stream you want to use
    Preview the slide show
    I have about 400 images in the photo stream that I use to display on Apple TV and during the preview it took about two minutes before the images displayed.
    Then I tested it in a normal setting where I have slide show starting after two minutes. The TV went to screensaver mode after two minutes and was black for about two minutes before the images appeared. Before the update the images would display shortly after the screensaver kicked on.
    I hope this helps!

  • HT4623 I have the original ipad and it does not show ios 6 available for download.

    I have the original iPad and it shows no update available.  I tried iTunes and it wont let me upgrade to ios 6.  What is going on?

    I have been looking all over and cannot find where they have said that.  Strange that they wouldnt include it.

  • IPhoto not showing all photos

    I have iPhoto '11 v 9.4.3.  Some time ago I noticed that certain events in the event view were showing up with zero photos in the event, with a gray palm tree sunset as the key photo of that event.  When I go to import pictures from my camera, iPhoto reports that photos in the camera are duplicates of photos already imported, but it shows a blank for the imported photo.  Since iPhoto seems to know they are there, I don't re-import. When I go to the Finder and look for the "missing" photos, they are there in the iPhoto Library (under Masters).  So, my question is, why does iPhoto know they are there but can't show them?  And how do I fix it?  And BTW, they have not been made hidden in iPhoto.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places 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.

  • IPhoto Places map home button does not show all photo locations in one extent

    I recently started populating location information for my photos in iPhoto 2011. Some are pre-loaded from my iPhone, but I also manually added locations for other photos/events. Now I have locations assigned both in the U.S. and in Europe, but when I try to view them all in one extent (via the "home" location button on the Places map), the map centers on Europe and I can't even see the U.S. Did I accidentally change a setting for the "home" location on the map? I cannot find a menu that shows options for the "home" location. Is it possible that locations are too far away from each other to see them all at once? If so, is there a way to reset the center of the map so I don't have to pan over from Europe every time I want to look at the U.S. locations (which is 99% of the time)?
    Thanks in advance for the help.

    I think I figured it out.
    It appears that the iPhoto Places map centers on the extent with the greatest number of individually geo-tagged photos. Rather than centering the map to the area in the middle of all your locations (i.e. one location, one "point"), it actually prioritizes locations by how many individually tagged photos are at that location (i.e. one location, many potential "points").
    Secondarily it may be a screen size issue. When I falsely tag a bunch of photos in Hawaii, then I can only see HI and mainland U.S. (no Asia or Europe).
    I guess Apple assumes you'll want to see most where you have the most tagged photos. This is unfortunate, however, as I tend to tag overseas locations by the entire Event (many photos placed at one location) vs my domestic photos which may or may not have locations. I guess it'll even out over time, but still, it would be nice to be able to set a specific "home" location or viewing extent.

  • Avchd files not showing in windows 7 for import to elements

    Hi I just bought elements 9. I am using windows 7 and a panasonic lumix g3 camera which records in AVCHD lite.
    If I try to to lets load some video files -  open the organizer  click file> get photos and videos>from files and folders with my sd card in the computer and select and view the files in a folder none of the video files are shown. All the photos files are there JPEG and raw but not the video, no thumbnails, no list, no  nothing. the files are there I just cant see them so i cant import them so I can't use Premier elements. I cant find much about this anywhere either and am really hoping someone can help. Ideally I need to see a thumb nail to seletc files. thanks

    First, make sure you have the latest version of Quicktime.
    Then, instead of using the Organizer to get the video from the camera, set up a Premiere Elements project using the settings for AVCHD Lite 720p60 (720p50 if PAL) and then use Premiere Elements' Get Media/From Flip AVCHD and Hard Disk Camcorder tool to get the video from the camera.
