Recovering image metadata on deleted images

I deleted images on the hard drive by mistake, does that delete the catalogue data as well? I'm not sure if it does because when reimporting those same images from a backup the image names are changed to xxx.DNG-2 and not xxx.DNG as they were originally. Why is that? How do I find the catalogue data for the original images and apply that to the re-imported ones...? Or does such a thing exist, or do I have to redo the PP all over again...?

Hello,
if you delete image on the file system LR does not loose any development settings (sometimes it can not display a preview, but this does not mean that the development settings are lost). LR shows a "!" for lost images.
You need not to reimport the missing image! Just copy to image from your backup to the location where LR expects the image and keep the same name as in LR for your image. Then, the "!" disapears (red mark) and (nearly) everything is o.k.
For some of your images the develoment data stored in the catalog is more recent then the information stored in the (jpeg/tiff/dng) files. You should select these files and choose "Metadata->Save Metadata to File" from the context menu do sync lightrooms catalog with the files on the hdd. (green box)

    Dear Atul
    Do you want to change the change the deletion flag set for a customer??
    If so, go to <b>XD06</b>, give all the datas required and press enter.  Now you can see some white boxes against the fields like "All areas", "selected for company code" etc.,  Wherever tick mark is there, untick and save.
    Thanks

  • How to recover photo that i deleted accidentally while i was trying to upload the photo on the phone??

    how to recover photo that i deleted accidentally while i was trying to upload the photo to the computer??
    also, itn't itune will backup myself whenever i sync???Will the old back up file got updated when i connect the phone with computer??

    I don't think recovery software will help since the file isn't just deleted, it's overwritten.  If you want to try, the backups are located at one of these locations:
    Mac OS: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup
    Windows XP: %AppData%\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
    Windows Vista: %AppData%\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
    Windows 7: %AppData%\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup

    Is there a way to recover pictures that were deleted on the i Pad 2 ?

    Only if you have a copy of them e.g. if they were on your iPad when you last backed then you can try restoring to that backup. But unlike on a computer there is no trashcan or recycle bin on an iPad, once they are deleted from an iPad then they are gone from it.

    Depends on the version of iPhoto - some details would help us help you
    If you have iPhoto '11 then the photos go from the iPhoto trash to the system trash and you can recover them there and import backinto iPhoto
    Otherwise you you are looking at data recovery software like file salvage http://subrosasoft.com/software/filesalvage or a data recovery service

  • Recovering image from thumbnail or metadata

    Hey there everyone, new poster here.
    I'm looking for some help on recovering a file. A rather important piece of digital art from has gone missing, but as it's a couple years old it's unlikely to still be sitting somewhere in the hard drive's free memory. However, I did find an 'Adobe Photoshop file browser metadata cache file' and an 'Adobe Photoshop file browser thumbnail cache file' that have names similar to the original piece of art.
    However, can't see a way of opening them. Photoshop tells me it's 'not the right kind of document', and I don't know what other application to use.
    So, I ask of you all, do I have any hope of recovering the image? And if so, how should I go about it?
    Many thanks,
    -J

    Your image isn't in them, but go to Get Info to get an app to open them with.
