Delete Files on CF Card After Downloading?

Brand new to Lightroom. I didn't see an option when downloading pix from my CF card to delete them from my card after downloading. What am I missing?

Having a back up strategy is an important part of the overall workflow. It's best to think of it right from the import stage. LR allows you to back up to another drive on import, which is a feature that I love.
A back up strategy is not just for an importing disaster, what if your hard drive crashes (and they do that sometimes). It may sound like being over cautious but... what if...
Here's a couple of good links to Scott Kelby's blog about what can happen and a his suggested back up strategy.

    exe files won't open after downloaded from Safari on my Mac OS X 10.4.11

    I use the free Unarchiver: http://unarchiver.c3.cx/unarchiver
    I have just tested it on a self-extracting Windows Internet Explorer and it opened it first time on my Mac.
    However, as you have been told, normally Windows executable files cannot be opened or used on Macs.

  • HT201077 Is there a way to delete files locally, on iPad, after they have been backed up in iCloud, without losing any files?

    Is there a way to delete files locally, on iPad, after they have been backed up in iCloud, without losing any files? Because iCloud is seeming like it actually doesn't back up anything.. Just clogs up all storage space on every device with duplicate images/videos. I am looking for a delete when backed up feature. Does that exist?

    You and Murray have both alluded to a separate "testing"
    server. Perhaps I can make this system work by setting up the
    testing server as a duplicate of the development server in my site
    manager. Then I would have to manually publish the files from the
    testing server to the live production server myself. What a pain!!!
    I can not believe that I am the only person in the world that has a

  • Firefox 8 upgrade file does not start after downloading it.

    I am using Firefox 3.0.19. I tried to download the .exe for firefox 8 in order to upgrade, but when I start the exe, the only window that pops up is asking if I want to run the upgrade under this user or another. When selecting my user (I have admin rights), the window closes and nothing happens.
    Do I first need to uninstall Firefox 3 ?
    And also, will my bookmarks be kept when upgrading (of course without first uninstalling ff 3). Or which file should I backup and where should I place it back?

    Do a clean (re)install and delete the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 8.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version if possible.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    You may have to start the installer as administrator via the right-click context menu: Run as Administrator
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • Deleting photos/formatting SD card after use in Canon T1i

    So once my Canon Rebel T1i formats my SD card in it's default state with two directories (DCIM/Canon) I have no permissions on the card other than "read only." This came up out of no where and now I can't delete images off of it in iPhoto (or the computer for that matter). I can reformat it in my Windows computer but this defeats the purpose of having them auto delete once imported. I am running the latest build of Lion and have a PNY profressional series SD card.
    Help please.

    You may have been able to try and use Disk Utility to repair file damage on
    the SD card's storage; but the actual damage due to improper unmounting
    in the first instance is carried over to the last. So corruption of them is likely.
    There may be some third party utility for helping restore or recover data
    from these camera flash memory cards, that may help. Sometimes, it
    may be possible to see if the OS X Disk Utility can try to fix the files, but
    that may also change them or make them unrecoverable by another kind
    of utility. While I don't have experience recovering lost or erased images
    from camera memory cards, I do know such software utilities for just this
    purpose do exist. Initially, a few years ago, I noticed a freeware utility was
    offered as well as a few shareware downloads that would work, for a fee.
    Maybe that is the direction to check into, and see if you can repair and
    recover the images which were subject to damage or corruption due to
    the improper unmounting and remounting of the SD. These items act
    just like any external hard disk drive, and need to be handled the same.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Cannot delete files from hard disk (after deleting from playlists)!

    all of a sudden itunes stopped allowing me to automatically delete (with the warning) a downloaded podcast so I would have to go to the hard disk manually to delte the posdcast.
    How do I get the system back to what it was where I delete a podcast and then get the warning and say ok to delete from hard disk?
    TIA!

    Hi Chris:
    2 part response:
    I founf the problem--somehow my itunes folder was moved to a different part of my hard drive--once I moved it back I can delete.
    I can delete as follows: when I right click and click on delete, I first delete the file from itunes library--then I get prompted if I want to delete from my hard disk by sending file to recycle bin--There is also a prompt if I do not want to see the warning--which I have on as a safety precaution. So I bet the default could remove from playlist and send file to recycle bin in one move.

  • Recovering the deleted files of One Note after MS office upgradation from 2010 to 2013

    Hi Team, 
    After up gradation of my MS office 2010 to 2013, I could see that few of my files were not present in the one note 2013. Could you please let me know if the data would be archived somewhere in the machine.
    Regards
    Vijay

    Hi Vijay,
    Where are these missing notebooks stored? In local or in the cloud?
    As far as I know, some notebooks may be closed after the gradation. We may try to reopen any of your previously used notebooks using following steps:
    1. Click the File tab, and then click Open.
    2. Under Recent Notebooks, click to open any of the notebooks that are listed.
    3. Look through the sections and pages of your reopened notebooks, or perform another notebook search.
    Hope this helps.

  • Aperture does not recognize files on SD card after Yosemite

    After Yosemite upgrade, Aperture cannot see/import files (both RAW and JPEG) on the SD card (using SD card reader plugged into a USB port).
    I know for sure the files are there as I can see them using other devices and using Finder on the same iMAC.
    The iMAC (year 2008, 4G RAM)itself is also running slowly with lots of spinning beach ball all the time.

    Does Aperture not show the card in the Import panel, or only no photos on the card?
    Have you checked all Import Settings in the Import panel, that could exclude photos? i.e. "Do not import Duplicates", "File Types", "Only include ...", RAW&Jpeg Pairs?

  • Cannot write or delete files from DVD+RW after erasing it through Disk Utility. Help.

    Hello. I erased (completely not quickly) my 4.7 GB DVD+RW with the help of Disk Utility in which it was successful, it asked me to open Finder, DVD Player or Disk Utility, I chose Finder. Then I dragged a MP4 and burned it, it asked me to name the blank DVD+RW so I named it and then it successfully burned the file onto the DVD+RW, now when I try to burn a file again (as it is a RW) by dragging the file to the DVD+RW window the cursor shows a stop sign with it (the sign which is a circle and there is a diagonal line it it) and it denies to write files again, when I try to remove a file it doesn't do it as well. Please help.
    P.S When I secondary click on the DVD+RW icon and click get info it says "Capacity : 4.7 GB" and "Available : 0 Bytes" even when the MP4 file is just 8.3 MB.
    Computer: Macbook Pro 13-Inch (Non-Retina) Highest Configuration.
    Please Help.

    Hello Aditya's Apple,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you want to write again to a CD RW or DVD RW disc you will need to first erase it, and then start another burn process.  The only time you can burn multiple times to a disc without first deleting what is on it, is by multisession burning.  The following article explains more.

  • Can't drag/delete files from C Drive after moving them into the D Drive

    Like many others, I have depleted my C Drive space and needed to move my iTunes folder into mt D Drive. I got these instructions from iTunes which tell me that after I have moved the files into the D Drive to find the old files in my C Drive and just drag them into the recycle bin. When I try that it tells me it can't be done because of copywrite protection issues. I need to free up that C Drive space by getting rid of those files. Can anyone help with this? I'd preferr an e-mailed answer if you could. Thanks.

  • Windows 8 deleted files from SD card

    Windows 8 automatically restarted on my laptop with my camera still attached. Once it had finished, my files were corrupted on my camera and could not be opened.
    I am furious with automatic updates as it has wiped all my honeymoon media. My camera now does not respond to my laptop when that SD card is in
    any ideas on how i can resolve this to  get my videos and pic back? Has that update affect my sd card?

    Hi,
    Windows update just update related system files and some drivers, it will not affect the data on your SD card.
    Please check if other computers can read your camera. If the files still can't be read from your camera, try the photo recovery applications.
    Regarding to current information, I suppose that the driver used to read your camera may be corrupted, would you please also check what updates were installed before this issue?
