Convert Photo(s) To DNG not permitting multiple conversions

I'm having a problem where, for extended periods, I can only individually convert photos to DNG.
Even when I have all images in a folder selected, the menu dialog reads "Convert photo to DNG...".
Currently, I'm experiencing this with Lightroom 2.3, but the problem has intermittently been an issue back to Lightroom 1. I'm using an Apple MacBook Pro, currently v10.5.6, with 4GB of RAM and ~ 10 GB of free disk space (admittedly not much, but the sooner I can get files converted to DNG, the sooner they're archived off of my hard drive).
Any one else having this problem? Any ideas what to do about it?
The image at the following link is a partial screenshot: http://lunasa.net/samples/Convertphoto.png

You need to be in Grid view before will operate on multiple selected images. The screenshot shows that you're in loupe view.

BUG Before/After Function stopped working after Convert Photo to DNG

Hi,
I just converted all my photos to DNG using Lightroom's Convert Photo to DNG function and the Before/After " \ " function (in Develop module) is not working anymore... same problem in Lightroom 3.0
regards,
Danny

I processed a Nikon .nef raw file in Lightroom
. Then I went to the Library Module under
Library and chose Convert to DNG. After the conversion
the complete history was still available. However, the Before/After function using \ or Before/After Views did not work. It was necessary to click on the History State to compare views. Using the Before/After Views, the original could be compared to the processed view by clicking on the Import state.
This will not be a problem if the files are converted to DNG during initial import.
I also recommend backing up originals and all processed files along with the Lightroom database on a least two drives on location and another off-site.

Metadata baked-in after Convert Photo to DNG?

Since I did Convert Photo to DNG to all my photos (originals were .CR2 and were Developed as well) it seems that Lightroom baked the previous metadata (XMP) to the new .DNG files so now, when I hit the " \ " keystroke to see " Before " (under Develop module) Lightroom now thinks that " Before " is the current state...
This is really bothering me, is it normal that there is no more " Before " state just because I converted all my photos to .DNG
Also, Lightroom history is now showing me " From Matadata " as the last action in the History list... Althought I never used the " Read Metadata from File " function...
So basically, I just converted to DNG all my photos and would like to be able to use the Before function " \ " under the develop module as I use to do with the .CR2...
any help would be appreciated!
thanks!

I have a Canon 6d and would like to convert my raw ( CR2) photo's into dng files. Adobe DNG converter 8.4 doesn't recognise the CR2 files. How can i solve this?

It is possible that you are not following instructions correctly in the DNG converter. The DNG converter interface asks for the FOLDER that contains your raw images. Choose the folder, but don't open it. After you have chosen the folder, click on the Convert button. The DNG conversion process should start. Does that help you?

Adobe Bridge CS4 - "convert to DNG" not working?

Hi
I am downloading a bunch of raw .CR2 files taken with a Canon 5D mark iii, and trying to convert them to DNG using Bridge, so that I can open them up in Camera Raw (which won't read the original CR2 files as you need CS5.5 or later). I have selected the "convert to DNG" option but the conversion doesn't seem to work, it's just copying the CR2 files over, Any idea why?
thanks

I have selected the "convert to DNG" option but the conversion doesn't seem to work, it's just copying the CR2 files over, Any idea why?
It seems you are using Photodownloader that comes with the CS version you are using currently. This Photodownloader is linked to the Raw converter of the version it is part of. So if it does not show the CR2 files as images it also won't convert to DNG
For this you need to download the latest and Free Adobe DNG converter.
Check this page, there is also an option to download the converter for either Mac or Windows

The Apple Configurator tool robbed my school of @ 60×4 apps.
Here's my mistake. I bought all the apps needed for the whole school in one lump sum. i.e. 350 copies of Pages. Then happily went to Configurator and loaded the spreadsheet. Installed on all the student iPads. Then need the remaining licenses to gift to the teachers and @ 30 for the cart. NOPE! Once they are loaded in to Configurator you can never get them back. Apple said, “sorry”.
I did this for the iWorks suite, iPhoto, & neu.Annotate before I realized what was happening.
This is what to do, in short. From the VPP account, buy the number needed for exactly what you need, just make sure, it's over 20, even if you only need 11, 20 copies is cheaper than 11 because they are half off at 20 or more. Get the spreadsheet generated by the VPP site for the 20 then buy for the next cart or site, it will generate a new spreadsheet of 20 you can give to the computer and its copy of Configurator.

How do I open RAW images from DSC_RX100M3? I downloaded Adobe DNG converter 8.4, but could not convert the images?

How do I open RAW images from DSC_RX100M3? I downloaded Adobe DNG converter 8.4, but could not convert the images?

Small correction to what SSprengel wrote...
The RX100M3 is supported only by version 8.5. It sounds like you need a newer version.

Using photoshop elements 6.0 - converting raw photos files to dng, how/where do I add metadata?

Metadata can be added in Properties panel. select a file and hit Alt+Enter. It will open up Properties panel. You may drag drop tags on the media and do File > Write tags info to files to write tags in file metadata.

DNG converted Minolta 5D-files do not work in Photoshop7

After downloading RAW-files from Dynax D5 in Dimage Master Lite (using Windows Vista) I converted them with Adobe DNG converter 4.5. When trying to open the DNG-files in Photoshop 7.0 it says the documents are not found. Anybody who knows a solution?
Thnkx.
Laurens R

If I am not mistaken Photoshop 7 was the first and only version of Photoshop
that had ACR as a seperate for cost plug-in. Meaning without this seperate
plug-in it doesn't support RAW files. I have no idea where you would get the
plug-in. It was offered for sale at that time but isn't any more. My
suggestion would be to buy the upgrade for Photoshop CS3 now and you should
then be able to get a free upgrade to CS4. Contact Adobe about this, but
generally they give you the upgrade to the newest non-released version when
you buy the current version after the annoucnement of the next version but
before it ships. If you don't upgrade now you probably will never get raw
support for 7, if you can find the plug-in I think that was before DNG
anyways so it still may not do you any good and if you don't upgrade now you
won't be able to upgrade at all. Photoshop CS after CS4 is released will be
the oldest version that you can upgrade from, 7 is the oldest version you
can upgrade from for CS3. So it is a now or nothing for upgrading.

Post 03- 10 Migration multiple Relay not Permitted errors from recipient

Hello all - I recently just started a new job in an organization that just recently upgraded from an Exchange 2003 environment, to Exchange 2010. Just within the past week, we finally took down our last 2003 system. Since then, we have received
a good number of bounce back messages from recipient servers with various specific error messages, but with a common theme "smtp relay not permitted". What's strange is at my last employer, we migrated from 2003 to 2007 and I recall having a similar
situation, but I can't for the life of me recall what the solution was.
So far, through a few hours of Google searching, all I have found are sources suggesting that this issue is a recipient server config problem, but I have a very hard time believing that it isn't a problem on my end, with this many of essentially the same
errors popping up. Also - I have noticed that if a user attempts to re-send an email to the recipient that previously bounced back, it will work.
I'm not sure what sort of config info from my server / local network I should share here, but i'll gladly share whatever may be necessary.
Here are a few of the bounce message that we have received (names/email addresses removed)

System or program crashes when converting from NEF to DNG

Hello Adobe.
First off, I love your software.
Second, this is my concern. You guys are pushing DNG as the go to raw format. That would be great if it worked good, but it doesn't.
First, when I convert from my Nikon NEF format (Nikon D7100) it chugs along just fine, then suddenly crashes either the program or my system after converting 50-100 or so images.
I have tried everything from downloading your software again, to turning off everything other then what is needed to do the conversion.
Of course I have the latest DNG utility/plug in/drivers from your website.
Second, the DNG images open much slower then my NEF images. Plus when I view them in Windoze file system view and want to see the photos in extra large icons, it renders the images very slowly.
My system is Windoze 8.1 updated always, Photoshop CC latest and greatest (I'm in the rental program), Bridge and Lightroom.
I have tried to use bridge and lightroom to do the conversion, even a separate utility and the crashing still happens. All these are up to date.
My system has an i7 Intel processor, 16 gb of Kingston ram, an ASUS P8Z77 MPRO mother board and a good stable power supply.
No other software crashes my system like converting from NEF to DNG.
What I do notice is my CPU fan goes into high RPM's and I am wondering if the CPU is overheating causing this.
If that is the case, then it would seem to me the conversion software is taxing the system far more then it should since my system is no slouch and while it isn't the latest and greatest, I would consider it to be in the top 20%,
it should be able to handle the conversion with no problem.
Are you aware of problems with the DNG software and or file format?
Is their any information I could forward to you to help solve the problem?

Photoshop Help | Digital Negative (DNG) - Adobe
helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/digital-negative.html
DNG is a publicly available archival format for storing camera raw files. Adobe provides Adobe DNG Converter, a free utility that converts files from more than ...
That is off the net, therefore, Adobe looks at DNG as part of Adobe Photoshop, which it is if a person chooses to convert.
My issue has to do with it crashing, both my system and software.
I assume if people here are using it, then they can advise me if they are having similar problems.
I have also written Adobe directly several times over the last month and have yet to receive a response.
I apologize that I posted here, but since I consider DNG an integral part of Photoshop, then I think it is appropriate here.
I was also not aware of a DNG forum, if one exists.
Thank you for your assistance.

Is there a method of converting .cr2 files to DNG when tethered in Lightroom 5.7.1?

don't see any setup parameters in either auto import or tethered capture ...
is there any plugin that will do this on a watched folder?
thanks

No need to do all that exporting and importing. LR will allow you to convert photos to DNG in place in the Catalog. I believe it's under the Photo menu, but I'm not looking at my laptop right now. The menu choice is simply "Convert photos to DNG."

Batch convert Raw files to DNG via Library's convert to DNG issue

I have LR 4.4 running on a Win 7 64 bit PC...
I selected 4 RAW files (CR2) to convert to DNG via the Library modules 'convert to DNG' and then delete the CR2 file.
It converted only the last of the 4 files and left the other 3 untouched as CR2 files. Can LR not batch convert the RAW files in this manner??
Dave

I tried again to convert the remaining 3 CR2 files to DNG by selecting the 1st file and shift clicking on the 3rd file in the film strip and then via 'Library-Convert photo to DNG. I have Delete originals after conversion checked.
This time it converted the 1st file and left the other 2 unchanged. It seems to perform the operation on the 1st file selected...the first time when I tried this on the 4 original files I had clicked on the last file and then shift clicked on the first on in the series.
BTW...I have LR4.4, Win 7 64-bit, 16G ram, Pentium 7...
For what it's worth, I also noticed that when I "round-trip" a file to CS6 and then SAVE the file it should bring me back to LR with the new file placed next to the old one in LR. Mine does not. The new file is not shown and I have to synch and add photo's to have it show in LR. Another issue...
Thanks for checking on your end. I suspected LR should properly batch the conversion as it did for you and that I had an issue. With the Nik suite and Perfect Effects 4 installed I'm hoping not to have to do a complete uninstall/reinstall...what a pain (sigh).
