Can't import files.

Hello
I have a folder set up, and within the folder are my photographs.
Some of the files are .jpg some are .nef file types.
When I use the import dialogue box to try to import that folder of files, lightroom only shows me SOME of the files do select for import.
it does not seem to be able to see the other files.
So I can't import them.
Any ideas how I can fix this?

I have some audio files on my previous phone which I would like to export to my new iPhone 5. I am told that you can only import files from iTunes. Is that true? If not, how do I import files from my phone - or my Macbook pro laptop-to my phone? Thanks!

iTunes will only import music from your phone that was purchased from the iTunes store. To transfer music from other sources you have to use 3rd party software, such as PhoneView.

How can I import files from a windows environment?

I am used to a pc environment. How can I import files ie. PDF, excel, word onto my iPad? I imagine that this is done through ITunes but am unsure how? Are there iPad versions of say Microsoft office that need to be used?

I use Documents to Go, a program that will open all the file types you listed. With its purchase you also get access to a desktop program that allows you to wirelessly sync documents between computers and your device, without going through iTunes.
The other ways to get data onto your device
Mail it to yourself and then save it to (send it to) the app from the e-mail.
Use iTunes to sync the data into the app that will open it.
Use an online service like Dropbox or others. You put the data 'out there' on your PC, then access it on your iPad and save it into the app.
One thing to remember, the iPad is different from Windows and Macs in one fundamental way. There is no 'windows explorer' or 'finder' for the iPad. The operating system doesn't have access to the whole device and everything on it. Instead you have apps that access bits and pieces of the system and have limited ways to share data across apps.
Think of it as World War Two French Resistence.....all these different groups (apps) working on the same device, but most if not all of them have very limited ways to discuss/contact each other. The apps are 'sandboxed' in that they have limited contact with other apps. So the easiest way to deal with various file types is to find the app that handles that kind of file and use that.

Hi,
The Canon S100 wasn't supported until version 6.6 of camera raw and that isn't supported by pse 8.
You options are to either upgrade to pse version 10 or use the DNG converter

After Effects error: Can't import file "(FILE TITTLE)" unsupported filetype or extension

Hello so I was working with AE3 for 2 years and i had no problems with it but.. when i reinstall my windows and install AE3 with same installation file as always i was using.. and I got problem. When i try to import AVI or wmv or other video clips except mov format I getting this error "After Effects error: Can't import file "(FILE TITTLE)" unsupported filetype or extension".. i tried everything: 3 different installs of AE3 but nothing always same.. so decided this is windows problem so I installed new one with SP3 but i got same problem then I tried it on SP2 but still same problem.. So i installed windows7 and my AE3 was working but i didn't liked a windows 7 and i back on xp SP3 and guess what guys? yes! i got same error again on AE3. I don't know guys what to do. Can you help me?

I assume that you mean "After Effects CS3". After Effects 3 came out more than a decade ago.
Do you have QuickTime Player installed? After Effects requires QuickTime to be installed to import some file types.
Could you be explicit about exaclty what files you have tried to import? Even giving file names might help. For example, this error has been seen when the characters used in the file name were non-standard characters (e.g., this thread).
When you re-installed Windows, did you also re-install any codecs that you may have previously had on the system?

I can't import files from my mac to my external hard drive on a mac. Works on Windows

I used OS X Mountain Lion and Windows 7. I bought an External Hard Drive Several Years Ago. I can't import files on it, just read it. In Windows i can read and write it. I want to upgrade my OS X Mountain Lion to OS X Mavericks. I am afraid that i will lose all of my files. Please help

That is because the external drive you are using is formatted in the Windows NTFS format, which is fine for Windows.
OS X can READ files from that format but can NOT Write to that format. If you want to use that external drive with both Windows and Mac OS X you will need to reformat it in a format that both Windows and OS X can Read from and Write to.
Those would be FAT32, in OSX it is called MS-DOS (FAT), or exFAT. You do that formatting in either OS X Disk Utility or Windows Disk Management.

How can i import files to trial version LR5.6? Message:Your disk "MobileBackups", to which you are importing images, is low on space.

how can i import files to trial version LR5.6

I currently am up to about 65,000 images cataloged in LR. I backup on launch several times a week and have used the "relaunch and optimize" function periodically as well. I am a bit reluctant to do anything aggressive as, even though I have encountered this warning 6 or 7 times in the past 4-5 months or so I have never had to shut down. I have emptied the recycle bin (which, as I mentioned, usually has very little in it) and then I continue and notice no impairment of function. So at present it represents more of an annoyance and a bit of a mystery only. Maybe I will just report this to Adobe and sit tight unless someone can see an obvious explanation and correction here.
I appreciate all of the input and advice I have received already.

See if anything here helps:

I can't import files into the new iTunes 11. Why?

Since downloading the new iTunes 11, required for the new iOS 7, I can no longer import files into my iTunes library.
When dragging and dropping the files, nothing happens.
When importing them via the iTunes menu. Nothing happens.
I've tried adding them to the iTunes folder "automatically add to iTunes library". Nothing happened.
I've had the new iTunes for one day, and it doesn't work.
Can somebody please help me?!

Sorted. Sorry.
The files did not have album name / artist name etc... etc.... Had to find them and type them manually.

Premeire Elements 13 - can't import files into Project Assets, Expert Mode. Win8.1

Hello there - I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling. Can't seem to figure this out. In other computers, I have imported files into the Project Assets area to "pre-edit" before adding to timeline. I can add media directly to timeline in Quick Mode, but it's too cumbersome. Really need ability to select segments of media in the Project Assets list.
Any help greatly appreciated as I spent a ton of $$ on a new computer and program!!
Thanks folks!

Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 8.1 (assumed 64 bit).
What is the typical outcome...
a. Expert workspace open....Add Media/Files and Folders/and no import into Expert workspace Project Assets, but you do find the import switching to Quick workspace Filmstrip?
b. Quick workspace open....Add Media/Files and Folders and media goes directly to Filmstrip. And, if you switch to Expert workspace, you find copy of import in Project Assets?
c. Other

and in the 13.0 Folder is the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file that you delete. If that does not work, then delete the whole 13.0 Folder in which the
Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exist. Be sure to be working with Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives enabled so that you can see
the whole path described.
If that does not work, then do the uninstall, free ccleaner run through (regular and registry parts), and reinstall with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.
Download and install the 13.1 Update using an opened project's Help Menu/Updates.
We will be watching for your progress.

Can't import files, can't import files

New to Final Cut Pro .....and MacBook Pro
Have several home made DVDs....can't import them

Ever hear the joke "You can't get there from here, you have to start somewhere else"? Same is true of DVD's. You are correct, you cannot import DVD's directly in FCP. It's not designed to do that. However there is a free app from http://www.squared5.com/ called MPEG Streamclip. Use this app to convert the files from the DVD into NTSC DV files or a PAL DV files depending what TV standard you are working in. Do a search in the Apple FCP communities on MPEG Streamclip for further enlightenment.

Can't import file to imovie

I purchased a video animation and downloaded fil, no problem, I can watch the file just fine in quicktime, (PRO)but when I try to import it into my imovie project it says it can't open the file. My question is the file I downloaded is 3802.MOV, is that the problem? The.MOV instead of .mov? The lady where I purchased the download from told me to save the file as.... 3802.mov and there would not be a problem. Is she correct?

Sounds like either the movie file is corrupt or is some proprietary format that resists export. If this is the only file you have problems exporting then perhaps you need to contact the place you purchased it from for information or to try a new download. If you have problems with other files then you may need to re-install Quicktime.
Just for the sake of curiosity could you open the source file in QT Player and check MovieInfo in the Window menu to see what formats were used to make it. That may give us some clue as to what is going on with the file.

Hi. I've downloaded video from youtube and want to edit this video. But I can't import this video. When i select video for import, I recieve this message "After Effects warning: The File <name> could not be found". Who can help me? Thank you very much

Convert the video using an external tool like ffmpeg/ MPEGStreamclip/ Handbrake or whatever to something AE can actually use.

I can not import files into Itunes.

I can not import my music and video files from the my documents folder to Itunes. When I try the file will not show up in Itunes.

Could you give us a little more specific information as to the source & format of these files? Those 2 things might be causing the problem.
