Can't import jpeg

I've imported a RAW file, editied in Lightroom and then edited in Elements 5. I notice that a psd file has been saved. Before saving in Elements, I cropped.
Problem is that I can't import the jpeg into Lightroom as it recognises the psd file and imports but no jpeg is imported as it may see as a duplicate?????
Any ideas??

Do a search on duplicate file names--this is probably the most discussed negative feature of LR :)

  • Getting error message on import that says can't import jpeg files and won't import

    why can't I import from the camera that I always use with my iPhoto? On connecting the camera, error message says "can't import jpeg files."  None of my camera settings have changed.  Is it a problem of connectivity with old camera and new iPhoto '11?

    Not an old camera problem - most likely a memory card format problem - when was the last time you reformated yoru card?
    What camera do you have? Does image capture work?

  • Can't import JPEG image Unrecognized format

    Can't import black and white JPEG to iPhoto. Says unrecognized format. I've imported many black and white JPEG images.

    You didn't ask a question.  You must made some statements.
    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    where are the photos from?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?

  • Can't import jpeg photos into iPad

    Can't figure out why some of my scanned jpeg photos can be imported into my iPad through iTunes and others can't. the message I get is "holiday.jpeg was not copied to the iPod because it cannot be played on this iPod." Any ideas?

    I would recommend you try one tool called ipad magic:http://www.topdvdtoipad.com/dvd-to-ipad-mac.html

  • Can you import jpegs into Livetype as fonts?

    I have a logo, in which I have broken up all the letters into separate jpegs, so I can animate them in. Unfortunately Motion has limited animation for objects that are not fonts, and as far as I can tell, livetype will not animate anything but fonts. Can someone help me figure out how to...I guess create a font in which these different jpegs would make up the letters of the font, and import that into livetype? Thank you!

    You pose and interesting question. Live Type works best when you use the exisiting fonts provided in the program
    Yes you can import jpegs into Live Type and you can use the pre-fabricated effects to animate them if you please, you can even modify many of the effects.
    If you have a just a few elements of a logo you may be able to create what you want relatively fast. You can do this in Motion as well, where you have more control, although IMO the learning curve is steeper in Motion. For that matter you could keyframe and animate in Final Cut Pro as well.
    If you choose to try this in Live Type then go to File>Place and select each of you jpegs indivudually.
    Good luck and post back if youhave more questions

  • Can't import jpegs into drop zones in 7.0 themes

    I've followed the thread regarding mac book pros and hang ups with iDVD 08 and the 7.0 themes. I have a G5 and can't get the 'Revolution' 7.0 them on main menu to allow me to 'drop' a jpeg into its drop zone. I drag the jpeg over, the green sign appears like its going to allow it to be dropped, it drops but the zone remains black like nothing is there. When I go to the info tree for the drop zones, its shows up like it is there, but on the main menu it remains empty. Any one with any suggestions? Thanks in advance for any info.

    Roger,
    What happens if you click on the Drop Zone button and drag the image there?
    This frequently helps solve some problems. Quit iDVD. Search for the file named com.apple.iDVD.plist and trash it. (A new one will be created next launch of iDVD.) Or look in: User/Library/Preferences. This may solve project loading errors too. Restart and use Disk Utility to Repair Permissions.
    You'll need to reset some Preferences.

  • Can't import jpeg files to iPhoto

    iPhoto will not recognise my jpeg files. I am using iPhoto 9.6.1
    How do I get the jpegs into iPhoto? Please help!

    Open iPhoto. Select “Photos” in the sidebar (other selections, such as “Events”, will be greyed out upon import attempts):
    Then, from the Menu Bar, File > Import to Library > [choose the jpeg files selectively or the folder containing them]

  • How can I import JPEGs but not Photoshop files from a folder?

    I'm wondering if there is a way to have import filtering by file type. Specifically, I want to import a large folder structure of finished images but only the JPEG files, I don't want PSD files added to the catalog.
    Is there possibly a script or Plug-in that does this?
    I'm using OS X 10.9 at home and Windows 7 at work, with LR 5.5 in both cases.

    This is the OP on my home profile, and that ship has already sailed. Both work and home, there are thousands of images together. I could explain why but its not important at this point, and I need it that way for my on-disk organization.
    I'm looking at this omission as a huge time-waster. Why import a bunch of files that you are going to immediately turn around and delete?
    At home I'm working on transitioning from Aperture, and so far I am not impressed with LR. It does some things better but has a lot of holes. My Aperture catalog is over 155,000 images.
    At work, I am dealing with legacy images and have been trying to use Bridge to organize things, that's been slow going as well. I'm trying to decide if the DAM features in Lightroom make it worth importing everything.

  • Raw + JPEG can't import JPEG

    I have been shooting RAW+JPEG. When I go to import the images only the Raw files are visible and imported. When I look at the CF card I see that the JPEG file is in the same folder as the RAW. I don't know how to import both. Do I need to change a setting?
    Thanks

  • I can't import JPEG files from my Pentax K-5

    I have no trouble importing on my I-Mac but no such luck on the MacBook. It says it's importing but the files never show up in IPhoto.

    I resolved the problem. USB connection type on the Pentax was set on MSC and needed to be on PTP. Found solution reading a post on a Nikon with a similar problem.

  • I edit my photos in Photoshop, save as jpeg then import back into iPhoto.  But if I add text to an image in Photoshop can't save as jpeg but as psd. Is there any way I can change to jpeg in iPhoto?

    I edit my RAW photos in Photoschop CS3, save as jpeg then import back into iPhoto 11.  If I add text in Photoshop I can't save as jpeg but as psd.  Is there any way I can change to jpeg in iPhoto?

    Yes you can. But you need to flatten it as jpeg doesn't support layers.
    While the final JPEG can't have layers, it is not necessary to flatten the original Photoshop file to create a JPEG. There are two ways to make a JPEG while not losing the flexibility of preserving layers, and they both flatten on the fly while saving.
    I just tried this in Photoshop CS3 myself. When I add a text layer, and choose Save, the Save As dialog box comes up and defaults to PSD as was described. But... that is just the default! Go ahead and choose JPEG from the Format pop-up menu down below the file list. JPEG is in there. So what happens to the layers? Notice when you choose JPEG, the Layers box grays out and the "As A Copy" box grays out and is checked (i.e. you cannot uncheck it). What is going on here is Photoshop will gladly make a JPEG of your layered file, but it will force the JPEG to be a copy, so as to not overwrite the original layered file. This is good, because your Photoshop file with its editable text layer is preserved, and you get a JPEG copy to put in iPhoto.
    The second way is, instead of doing Save or Save As, choose File/Save for Web and Devices. This will also give you a JPEG choice, and also create an exported copy. Because this way makes files for the Web, they will be smaller than JPEGs from Save As because they will lack built-in previews (which you don't really need these days) and other extra metadata that take up space.
    Either way you get a JPEG you can toss back into iPhoto.

    The Export menu in Photoshop CS3 does not have any direct choices for JPEG.

  • How can I color a black and white imported jpeg?

    I am new to Illustrator, and have been watching MANY videos, but just cannot seem to figure out how to color the B&W photo I imported into Illustrator CC. Do I need to do something in Photoshop first? Am I missing a step? I was able to trace the image but from there I am lost. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

    How can I color a black and white imported jpeg?
    In case you don't want to trace it first:
    -> it needs to real Greyscale. Not just desaturated RGB
    -> Do not save it via Save for Web in Photoshop.

  • FCE 1.0.1 Can't Import "Original" JPEGs - FCE 3.0 Can !

    Not a serious problem - just a puzzling quirk.
    When I try to import JPEGs which have been produced by my digital camera, FCE 1.0.1 shows them greyed out and impossible to select.
    However, if I make a copy (or in any way manipulate the JPEG) in Photoshop and save it, it shows up nice and black and can be imported.
    FCE 3.0 works perfectly with either an original camera image or a copy.
    Can anyone explain why FCE 1.0.1 behaves in this strange way?
    What is the difference between the original and a copy? They are both JPEGs after all.
    Ian.

    Thanks Al.
    I think this my be one of those mysteries like the Meaning of Life!
    There seems to be no logical reason. The JPEGs from my camera are perfectly bog-standard and are recognised by everything including FCE 3.0 but 1.0.1 doesn't.
    I tried to save the JPEG in Photoshop and it was still grey.
    However if I use the "Save As" command the newly saved version can be imported into 1.0.1 with no problem. Somehow the "Save As" command must be imparting some subtle change in the format that 1.0.1 can detect.
    This has no practical impact on my life because normally I will never use 1.0.1 for that - it's just that I don't like mysteries.
    Ian.

  • CS4: Can't import exported JPEG?

    I'm pretty sure I have myself asked for this before, but why can't a JPEG I exported from InDesign be imported back in InDesign? It shows grey in import dialog.
    I remember I have previously had this problem when trying to use InDesign exported jpegs in other programs, but it's InDesign itself also.
    Only Photoshop recognizes and if I open/save, it's ok.

    I can do this running CS4 on Win XP SP2. Not a problem.
    Anything special running in background like a screen grabber utility or something?

  • I am having trouble importing jpegs shot on my Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi

    I have about 1000 jpegs that i need to import into FCP. A few specs to start off with. I am working on FCP 7.0 and a brand new MacBook Pro. I have had this camera for about 4 years and have not had a problem importing the jpegs into my old laptop and old FCP program.
    When i try to import the jpegs, the 2 portrait jpegs will import fine, but the 350 landscape jpegs will not. I keep getting the "file unknown" error. The dimensions are exactly the same, just reversed. it is RGB. i am able to open the file in preview and resave and then it will import fine. But, i have 1000 photos and don't want to have to do that for all of them. Plus, i will be taking several thousands more and won't have time to do that to each and every photo.
    How to i solve this problem so I can simply import the landscape jpegs as i have always done?
    Thanks in advance for all of the help.

    Will I have to do that for every picture? I am able to open them in Preview and resave them and they work fine. Is there a camera setting that I need to use to dictate how the pix are imported?
    Thanks for your help!
