Can I import images from DVD to my HDD through bridge (I have Win 7

Hi,
I'm using Win 7 (and also have Bridge on Mac OS X). I'd like to import images from DVD to my HDD through Adobe Bridge. But I can't find the option to import from DVD in Bridge (either in Win 7 or Mac). My DVD drive on my Win machine is external while I have the regular internal DVD drive on my Macbook Pro. I'm trying to import images from DVD to HDD through Bridge. Go through the first round of select/reject through Bridge and then take them to LR for further edits.
I currently copy them from DVD drive to a USB pen drive. And then using the Bridge import dialog (when I plug in the USB again) copy them to my HDD. I do this becuase I also need to batch rename my files, add metadata and keywords during import. The simple copy/move function won't allow these additions and so I have to resort to this workaround of DVD to USB to HDD (thru Bridge). If I can import directly from DVD through bridge, it'll save me quite some time.
Look forward to assistance pls.
Thx,
Chinmoy

I feel a bit silly now. For 2 days I struggled and then posted my Q.
After posting the Q, I figured it out in about 15 minutes.
Insert DVD.
Open Br
Navigate to DVD
Select all images
Right Click - Batch Rename
Choose Destination Path and New file name.
And go!
If you've had the same problem I did, hope this helps.

  • Can you import shows from DVDs???

    I just got a new video ipod and instead of spending money on shows from the music store can I import shows from DVDs???

    The ripping guide in the external link ought to work just fine, but the main reason I'm posting is to say that it would be quite unreasonable to use HandBrake to rip a DVD, especially with 2-pass encoding, if you care the slightest bit about the longevity of your optical drive. Before further experimentation, you might want to know that HandBrake also supports encoding from DVD folders and images, which can be extracted in a matter of minutes (not hours and even days) using other free software. And of course none of this will ever work with any DVDs except the ones you've made yourself and own the rights to. Pakko sanoa semmoista, voi vitsi.

  • How can I import images from iphoto with the albums and folders?

    How can I import images from iphoto without losing the albums and folders I already created?

    In Organizer, you can choose File>get Photos and Videos>From iPhoto.
    Importing from iPhoto'09: If in iPhoto, you organize your media using photo references, that is, the media actually does not reside inside iPhoto library package, and are referenced through original locations, Organizer does not create new copies of those media and just refer to the original location. but if your iPhoto media reside inside iPhoto library, Organizer creates a copy all media in your pictures folder, also imports albums and tags and other metadata.
    Importing from iPhoto'011: In this case, Organizer always creates a copy of your photos in your pictures folder which resides inside iPohto package. It does not import the albums and other metadata like star rating, caption etc.
    Hope this information helps!

  • Why can I import images from my scanner in Adobe Elements 11 organizer but not in photo editor?

    Why can I import images from my scanner in Adobe Elements 11 in the organizer but not in the photo editor? I have Windows 8 64 bit.

    You need to install TWAIN to scan into the editor:

  • Can't import photos from DVD

    I have a DVD-ROM with a bunch of images on it. Works fine if I drag the folder(s) from it to my hard drive - but - trying to import in Aperture doesn't seem to work...
    There's one folder on the DVD & a bunch of subfolders in that. The import window in Aperture has the "X" on the disk icon and then the "arrow" icon pointing to a new, empty project. I've selected a folder on my images hard drive where the images should be copied to ("move files" is grayed out).
    When I click the arrow, I just get a "boop" error tone. Nothing more.
    I'm clearly missing something ... just can't figure out what thus far. Hopeing it's something simple.

    I created a new, blank project and chose "import folders into project" - when this is done from a DVD, you just get the 'boop' error tone (though it shows the 'arrow' connecting the disk to the project).
    So ... I copied all the files straight to the hard drive from the disk & tried the exact same import procedure...
    It worked with the caveat that it doesn't seem to be retaining the directory structure - just takes the source images from of the root level & any subfolder, and dumps them into the root level of the new project.
    I have to be missing something here - Aperture's strong point (from what I'm told) is the workflow. Step one - just getting the photos to show up in the program - takes an unbelievable amount of time.
    The import is still progressing (less than 200 MB, verrrrry slowly, off a firewire 800 hard drive). Perhaps the directory structure will be re-created once the import completes, but I have no indication of that so far.

  • How can I import images from my camera to my external drive instead of Mac, but still use IPhoto?

    I would like to preserve space on my new Mac and import photos from my camera to my external drive instead of my Mac, while still being able to use Iphoto. Not sure how to specify this.

    Move your Library to the Extnernal Disk -
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    Then import as normal.

  • I can't import images from the web into my iphoto 8

    I installed snow leopard a few weeks ago and when I try to click on an image on a website like a friends photo from myspace, and drag it to my Iphoto's icon in my dock it gets rejected, But I was able to do that very same thing before and it would work. I don't know why it won't now unless it is snow leopard. can someone help me fix this problem? Thanks to anyone who can help.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Several people have mentioned this and it seems to be a change with 10.6
    If you're using Safari then right click on an image and choose 'Add Image to iPhoto Library'. Otherwise drag the image to the desktop first.

  • How can I import image from printer

    These days many models of printer are printer/scanner combinations. If you have one and are working on a Mac, go to System Preferences > Print and Fax. You will see a menu similar to the one shown here. Click on Scan and follow the instructions that are displayed.

  • I can't import photos from my PC as my Itunes does not have a check box from Syncing under the photos option?

    I am trying to import my photos from the computer. I went into ITunes, connected my Iphone and went under the photo section expecting to see a check box for syncing. It's not there and all I have is a note about Icloud. Can anyone help?

    Hello evilemma72,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you do not see a checkbox to enable syncing photos, and instead see a message the iCloud Photos is on, then it indicates you have iCloud Photo Library enabled on your iPhone, and the photos already exist on your phone.  To learn more about iCloud Photo Library, take a look at the article below.

    Take care,

  • Import Image from scanner to database Direct ..

    can any Colleagues help me ..
    how can i Import Image From Scanner directly
    if anyone can descuss code and how can i do that
    thank for all Colleagues .......

    You cannot.. unless you are prepared to get your hands dirty writing code to integrate a scanner API into Oracle.
    Oracle has a feature called extproc. This allows you to define external "procedures" - these procedures are for example shared object libraries (Linux/Unix) or dynamic link libraries (Windows). A scanner API will be typically implemented by its driver as a shared object/DLL. Which means it is callable from within PL/SQL.
    It may however not be usable - extproc does not support callbacks, does not own a window or process handle, and so on.
    In which case you may need to wrap the DLL into a custom DLL that implements callbacks. perhaps create a hidden window if a window handle is needed, and so on.
    In other words, this is not a trivial thing. You need to know more than just a bit about o/s side (systems) programming.
    You should also ask yourself why you want to do this. Architecturally wiring a scanner into Oracle via PL/SQL and an extproc interface make absolutely no sense at all.
    Especially since operator input/control is required to physically manage device... That is on the very opposite side of the Oracle server spectrum. That is clearly a client function to interact with such a device and not a server function.

  • How to import images from iPhone 5 into Lightroom 4?

    After a recent iTunes software update, I can't import images from my iPhone 5 into Lightroom 4.  Now Lightroom doesn't even recognize that the iPhone is connected, nor does the Finder, which explains why I can't choose it as an import source.  Instead the iPhone only shows up in iTunes when connected.  Surely someone else has run into this issue.  Any known solutions/suggestions/work-arounds?

  • Can you import video from a DVD?  If so how

    Can you import video from a DVD? I have some home DVD's made on my PC. My PC program (Roxio) allowed me to pull clips off of a DVD, but I can not seem to figure out how to do it with iMovie on my Mac.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

    Hi, I'll see if I can help. The only way I know of importing directly from iMovie off of a DVD is with a converter box hooked up to an external DVD player. However there are a few freeware programs you could try. One is Handbrake, with it you can convert your DVD into a MPEG-4 file, this is incredibly easy however the quality will be a little lower than that of a DVD. Another program is MactheRipper which will rip the entire DVD onto your hard drive but you will have to hunt through all the files to find the ones you want. I hope this helps.

  • I am unable to import recording from DVD to iMovie so that I can edit it.

    I am unable to import recording from DVD to iMovie so that I can edit it. Any suggestions?

    The files on the DVD are MPEG 2 files and need to be converted in order to be usable in iMovie. Streamclip from Squared5 is one option although others are available. Wondershare is one as well. Just Google for mp2 converters and you'll find many.

  • Upgraded to 10.6.8 and now can't import photos from Olympus camera

    1. Recently bought a new Olympus VR310 digital camera.  I couldn't get either Image Capture (6.0.1) or iPhoto (9.1.5) to import images from day one, onto my Mac Mini running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.  However, if I took the SDHC card out of the Olympus and put it into an older  Canon Ixus digital camera , and used that to upload, then both Image Capture and iPhoto worked perfectly.  So it's not the card.  Or the USB connection.  It's something special to the Olympus and the Mac.  Obviously I tried all the usual stuff about dumping plist files etc.  Nothing worked.
    2. The problem manifests itself, when the Olympus is connected,  as Image Capture being unable to show more than one, if any, thumbnails, and it is unable to import at all.  In iPhoto the problem manifests immediately it calls up the Olympus as a connected camera.  The dreaded spinning beachball of death kicks off, and the program 'stops responding'.  Even after I quit iPhoto and unmount the Olympus, iPhoto will not open without the spinning ball of death until I restart.  
    3. Anyway, I tried connecting the Olympus to my son's Macbook, (System 10.6.7, Image Capture 6.0.1 and iPhoto 9.1.1) and all worked perfectly.  Hmm… so it's NOT just down to the Olympus.  It's something to do with my setup. 
    4. I also have a bootable USB drive connected to the Mini, so I booted into that, so I then have my computer and my user preferences etc running under the bootable drives System 10.6.6, Image Capture 6.0.1, and iPhoto 9.1.5.  That worked perfectly with the Olympus too.  So it's not my the combination of my user settings, Image Capture 6.0.1, or iPhoto 9.15, or the  Olympus.
    5. My guess then was it was some corruption of the system on the Mac Mini.  So I reinstalled the Mac Mini system, from the install DVD, so I had a nice fresh Snow Leopard 10.6.0.  That gave me Image Capture 6.0.1 and iPhoto 9.1.5.  When I attached the Olympus, everything worked perfectly.  Great.
    THEN, I updated the system from Apple's Oftware Update, all the way to 10.6.8, which is where I started from. 
    6. And guess what.  Nothing works anymore. Immediately before the update, the Olympus importing worked.  Immediately afterwards it didn't.  I'm back where I was at the beginning, with exactly the same problem..  I can't import from the Olympus but the Canon is fine. (see 1 and 2 above)
    So, it seems to me that the Upgrade straight to 10.6.8 is what caused the problem.  And given I could get the Olympus to work on my son's computer (system 10.6.6) it's something between 10.6.6 and 10.6.8.  Why the Canon works on all the permutations, and not the Olympus, I don't know.  I don't know why the  Olympus ONLY doesn't work with 10.6.8.
    7. Obviously there are tedious workarounds (but none that lets iPhoto capture the photos directly) which I can use to get the images into iPhoto eventually, but hey, this is an Apple Mac, who wants to be doing tedious workarounds all the time.
    I've had Macs since 1984  (I'm that old…) so I'm a fan, and I'm reasonably competent, but this has me stumped.
    Any ideas, anyone. 
    Any help much appreciated.

    You launched iPhoto and from its Preferences you selected Connecting camera opens.....

  • I can not import photos from PC to my Ipad, it says iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPad

    I can not import photos from my PC to the iPad, it says  iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPad

    YES Terence!  Thank you. Exporting allowed me to move my photos from iPhoto into the Burn Folder on my desktop.   But that doesn't explain why I'm having to go that route now.   Have I done something (accidentally changed some setting) on my computer that will not allow me to just click and drag anymore?   I really liked the convenience of the click and drag option. 
    I don't have the time tonight to export and burn a lot of CD/DVDs.  I'll try that tomorrow and make sure my photos are moving properly.  I also need to export photos to my external hard drive to make sure that route is working. 
    Wouldn't you know that my Apple Care Plan runs out this Wednesday?!  I need to make sure everything is working properly before that expires. 
    Thank you so much for your help.   I really, really appreciate it.
