Copying files into lightroom from iPhoto

I wanted to get my photos from iPhoto into Lightroom and so copied them all to a folder on the desktop
but it seems I have to keep them on the desktop otherwise Lightroom does not recognise them. Can somebody advise as to where they
should be placed or how I should have done it? thanks

LightRoom support is not done here - as to iPhoto select the photos you want to move to LR and export (usually as Kind is original) to a desktop folder - Exporting From iPhoto
From there on you need LR support

How to copy picture into email from iPhoto 9.6 (910.29) after OS X Yosemite download

Hi.
Since updating to Yosemite on MacBook Air when I try to copy and paste a photo from iPhoto to an email instead of the photo coming up in the email, which it has always done, I get something like this pasted in the email ...file:111Users/Pictures?iPhoto%20Library/Previews/2014/09/11/20140911144300/u kEgw etc etc etc ... ending in .jpg.
How please do I now send a picture in an aol email, or what do I untick or tick, to change the above figures and numbers to the actual photo, so when I copy and paste a photo from iPhoto, the picture comes up in an aol email and not gobbledegook (sorry computer bods!!!) figures and numbers!!
Very many thanks.
Bobby

Well, I will tackle the picture problem and see what I can learn. I am in Los Gatos, California (Silicon Valley) and there is an Apple store 2 miles away so I will go in ask them about this. It will take me a couple of days to get that done likely. Frankly, I have the same general problem about pasting stuff into that screen where you are writing emails. Something amiss here.
I am unfamiliar with the problem you have with BlueTooth interfering with WiFi and think that is likely specific to you, or more likely something completely different that LOOKS like a Bluetooth related problem. I am normally and right this minute running a BlueTooth keyboard and mouse and the computer is a MacBook Pro connected via WiFi through an Apple Extreme router to the internet and to my printer. I have had no issues that I know of between BlueTooth and WiFi. The same is true for the iPad and a bluetooth keyboard which communicates by WiFi with this home network and my iPhone and Bluetooth headset that I use adjacent to the computer. All this worked "right out of the box" so to speak
Thanks for your reply

How do I import iPhoto raw (NEF) files into Lightroom 3.6?

how do I import iPhoto raw (NEF) files into Lightroom 3.6?

You will need an application that can convert those pcd files into one that iPhoto supports, mainly jpeg. GraphicConverter is supposed to support many, many formats and might just support the pcd. If so you could use it to convert them to jpegs.
There's an automator workflow that I've put into an application that will take many image files and convert them into jpeg with the RGB color profile. I've never tried it on the Kodak files but you can give it a try. It's called +*Convert to JPG and Embed sRGB profile*+ and can be downloaded from Toad's Cellar. Make a copy of a couple of files and see if it will work. If so then you can batch convert folders of the files at once by dragging them onto the application.
I believe GC can do batch conversions but am not familiar with the application.

Why can't I upload any files into lightroom?

I've been using Lr for a while and it never gave me any problems, but all of a sudden I can't upload any files into lightroom, whether it's from my iphone or a raw file. I've updated all my software and computer yet lightroom still says it can't read any files once I hit the import button. Any ideas? Thanks!!

Hello! Thanks for answering
This is what is says: Could not copy a file to the requested location.
However, when I started having trouble with this it said something like "lightroom can't read the files". I then updated all of my software.
I'm thinking it could a directory issue?
Also, by "upload" I meant when I hit the IMPORT button.
thank you!!

I have a new camera and cannot import RAW files into lightroom.

I have a new Sony NEX 5 and have tried importing the ARW files into lightroom. The files are recognized when I import photos from device. When I choose the .arw files to import, I receive an message "unknown errors occurred" and files won't import. I have never had a problem importing files from a card or directly from my older camera. Any suggestions?

Check here to see if your camera is supported yet.
If its a camera launched in the last month it won't be. But you can try LR 3.2 RC and see if it has been added. Otherwise you will have to wait until LR supports the format. This is a problem caused by manufacturers constantly using their own formats which require Adobe to investigate every new format before adding it to LR. In 99.99% of the cases the so called new format from the manufacturers is just a line of code with the name of the camera in it. You can use a EXIF editor tool (just google, lots of free ones) to change the name in the RAW file to one presently supported and then convert to DNG. If you do go down this road then ensure you also keep a copy of the original files just in case something has actually changed.
If you are still using LR 2.7 and the format you need was introduced with LR 3 you don't need to upgrade, you can just use Adobes standalone converter to convert the files to DNG and then import them.

How Do I Copy File Names & Folders From A Hard Drive To A Word Document?

Hi Gang:
This may sound silly but I am having a herd time with the following - seemingly simple task.
I have data DVD-Rs with audio files organized into folders. Each folder contains audio files related to the folder name.
I would like to copy the file names and folders from a DVD-R and paste them into a MS Word file. I am just looking to get a listing of files as they appear on the DVD-Rs in their folders.
The problem is that when I copy and paste, the order changes (seemingly randomly) and the file names are no longer under the folder names. In fact, the whole thing looks to be really random.
Anybody know how to copy file/folder names from a hard drive or DVD-R to a word document and retain the file/folder structure?
Thanks!
LAHD

There is an even easier method with no Terminal magic required. In the Finder, select all the files you want the names of, press Command-C, switch to Word and press Command-V. Poof, your done.
If you view the DVD in List VIew, you can expand the folders you want the files for, then select all the files (and their folders if you want them too) and then do the Copy/Paste thing.

I would like to copy and paste photos from iphoto to a cd for use

I would like to copy and paste photos from iphoto to a cd for use. How can I do this so it can be used for further work in other computers without iphoto?
Steve

You can't do that.
Export the Photos (File -> Export) to a folder on the desktop. Then burn that to the CD using the Finder's Burn Disk command.

I can't import raw files into lightroom

I have been using lightroom 4. I shoot with a nikon d300s. I recently used a nikon D610 and now it says preview not available. It also says the the raw images aren't able to import. So I recently upgraded to Lightroom 5 and it still says preview not available. I need some suggestions on how to import them.

I don't use nikon software. I just use lightroom. I just got lightroom 5. I tried to update to 5.3 but couldn't find the location where to find it.

Do you have Lightroom 5.3 or higher?
Did you use Nikon software at any point on these photos?

How to import Hasselblad fff files into Lightroom 5 keeping 16bit?

I have a problem importing Hasselblad fff files into Lightroom 5. I have seen articles that I should change them into DNG by Phocus.
When a photo is converted into DNG file it seems that it becomes 8 bit when I open in photoshop. Since I am shooting with RAW, I'D like to keep it
in 16 bit. Am I making sense? Or I am missing some information regarding DNG and 8bit business?
Please teach me the best way.

If opening directly from LR into Photoshop check your pref settings.
Edit >> Preferences >> External Editing (Lightroom >> Preferences >> External Editing on Mac OSX)
The usual choice is to render a 16 bit tiff or PSD file. Make sure it’s not incorrectly set to 8 bit.

Importing Files into Lightroom 4.1 (Win) Stopped Working

Okay, I am at my wits end as I am no longer able to import any new files into Lightroom. I was in the middle of an import and all of a sudden it stopped and the program hung. I am running Win 7 64 with an i7 with 12 gigs of RAM. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Lightroom multiple times (Using both the windows installer and via Lightroom and then searched to see if there were any orpne files on my drive. ) , did a system restore to a point about a month ago, tried importing a simple jpeg file from the hard drive as well as CR2 files (Canon) and even DNG files. Also tried setting up a new catalogue with no success. Plenty of hard drive space and no drive errors. . There is nothing wrong with the files as I can open them in Photoshop. I can see the files on the import screen though they are not always rendered. When I choose import it just starts, says Importing files... and hangs. When I finally give up, and I have waited an hour or more, and kill the process I get the message - No photos or videos were found to import. Other tidbits. Takes a long time to be able to select files to import from the import screen. System seems to run for some time before I can select or deselect (If this were a Mac it would show a beach ball during this wait) Each time I quit or try to change catalogues it asks for the weekly backup (my default) even though I backed it up sometimes as recently as within the past 10 minutes and those backups appear to be valid and in the directory. Every other feature, including Export seems to work I just can no longer import files. I am open to any and all suggestions I am not a LR novice and pretty knowedgable about the Win operating system.

Thanks, but that did not help. HOWEVER, after an hour on the phone with support this morning I, meaning we, have resolved the problem. It appears to be a problem with my WIndows 7 User Account. I created a new Administrator User Account and everything works fine. Now I am going to troubleshoot my original user account to see if I can repair it or, (A) Use this new account for Lightroom and Photoshop or (B) move all my preferences to this new user account. Things were so much easier in the C: Prompt/Registry world but, of course, that was when I still had a darkroom and not a Lightroom.
