Display problem import photos

Hello,
I have a display problem when I try to import photos into Lightroom.
I use the version 5.2.
The problem can be viewed in the following video.
At the begining you can view that there is something weird as under the folder "Panoramas" there is a grey block where there should be the rest of the folders onmy disk.
Then, I try to select a folder on my disk MacHD or SaveSSD and everything is ok.
And when I come back on my disk MacSSD, everything is going wrong (it begins when I click on "Panoramas").
Any idea how to fix this ?

My video was just to illustrate the display problem.
As I said before I had it when I import from my SD card. My common workflow is importing from the SD card to the MacSSD disk, with a renaming. That's why I choose copy and not just Add to the catalog.
By the way, I had another strange thing. In the Folders on the left side of the Library module I got 2 times the same name (folder "2013").
I right-clicked and refesh folder, LR asked me to merge the both folder "2013" and it somehow seems to solve the import problem.
I don't really get what I did.......

New problem importing photos videos

since I upgraded my iphone 5 to ios7, I having a problem importing photos and videos to my pc? I have Windows 7. Has anyone else had this issue and been able to resolve it?

Hi I have figured it out on my own just today coz what apple suggested didn't help much so I just have to do it by myself.
This is what you need to do:
open your computer and search for autoplay, it will open rightaway and then scroll down look for your device then change "ask everything" to "import photos and videos in windows" connect your ipad again then tthe import box will open.. and your good!
i hope this will help you. Good luck! :-)

Problem Importing photos from camera to iPhoto

Help. For a while I had no problems importing photos from my camera now I get the following error message:- /private/var/folders/CC/CC5eraW2GGCddoAX3DUGjE+TM/-Tmp-/iPhoto/PICT1015.JPG
Does anyone know what this means? What I have done to my computer to cause this? and how to fix it. Thank you.

Sam
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Launch Image Capture (in your Apps Folder) and use it to move the pics to the desktop. Then try import from there.
If that works, then use your camera to reformat your card, and see if that works in the future.

Problems importing photos with a color label.

Hello:
I'm trying to import photos and assign a color label at the same time. My idea is to know what pics are just imported and put they into "status 0" of my workflow, that is, the pic is just imported and need to be accepted/rejected, then be classified, then made basic corrections, etc, etc. I'm going to change color labels to go from red to green status... a tipical workflow.
OK, this is what I did:
Import pics:
* I select the directory and create/assign a new metadata preset.
* In this metadata preset I set author/creator and some other IPTC fields.
* Also I put the word "red" in Label field.
* Do the import...
What I can see then:
The photos are imported and the red label is visible. You can see the red label in the grid view (at every photo's bottom) and also, at the bottom toolbar, you can see that the red label is checked. If you click at the small label at the photo's bottom you can see the small menu with the red label checked.
OK, it seems that the color label is imported but...
In the filmstring, if you filter to see only the red labeled pics... nothing is selected !! You have to unassign and assign again the red label and this time you can filter by color label.
What is happening ? Does Lightroom read the color label from two different fields from the metadata ? Is something not synched during the import process ?
Regards,
Javier.

Sorry if I couldn't explain correctly. English is not my main language...
I know you can assign names to the existing colors label and create different sets. I just create my own set.
What I'm refering to is to the Label field that is part of the basic IPTC data into a metadata preset. I'm not sure if it's the same field that is used to assign color labels.
What I did was to create a metadata preset, assign the word "red" as the value of the IPTC Label field and then apply this preset into an import. All the pics were imported with the red label set, so yes, it is possible to do the import and set the color label. The problem is that you can't use the filters that are into the filmstring view. So there is some mismatch here: the red color is shown at the bottom of the pics imported, but the filmstring filters can't "see" that the pics have this color label assigned.

Problem Importing photos from Canon Rebel XTi -- Iphoto '08

When I plug in USB cord to camera and MacBook, then turn on my Canon Rebel XTi, iPhoto opens up but will not read the CF card. The status light on the camera just blinks red as if it working on it but it never does show the photos in iPhoto08 and the camera doesn't show up on the sidebar either although it used to but doesn't anymore.
I know that my CF card is ok because when I use it in my Canon Powershot S400 it works fine, and I'm able to import photos fine.
Help please?

Thanks, I'm fairly certain that WILL work since the card works with iPhoto in my other camera fine.
I don't have a card reader and I'd like to figure out how to fix the problem I have with my Rebel XTi. Any suggestions on that?

Problem importing photos from camera to Lightroom

I have Creative Cloud for Photographers, it´s installed on my iMac and my MacBook Air. I use Lightroom to import photos from the camera. A few days ago I wanted to import some photos to the MacBook, but after a while everything stopped, no photos were imported and after waiting quite some time I gave up. Tried again after a while but then got the message that the files couldn´t be read. It worried me a lot as I was afraid the memory card might have got damaged, but I tried to import the photos to the iMac instead and it was no problem. After that I have tried to import other photos from various cameras to the MacBook, but nothing works. To the iMac - no problem. I then tried to uninstall Lightroom, but it was not possible. In the Creative Cloud-app It is possible to uninstall Photoshop, no problem, but with Lightroom it says "cannot be uninstalled" - on both the iMac and the MacBook.
Since I will be traveling a lot in just a few days, it´s essential to have a Lightroom that works on my MacBook. I usually import photos from the camera several times a day, so without a LR that works, things will be much more difficult…
Any help will be much appreciated!

As I am not a Mac person, I cannot explain how to change permissions, but I'm sure your favorite search engine will find the instructions.
Sometimes, the destination folder where Lightroom writes the photos to has accidentally changed, and now you are pointing to a different fodler that doesn't have the proper permissions.

Problem importing photos from iphone3G via Adobe Photoshop Elements v7.0

I have adobe elements v7.0 and an iPhone 3g running the new release
iPhone OS.
When I connect the iPhone to upload the photos I have taken on it into
pe7 the import photos dialog box opens and then shows how many photos
are there to import. But each thumbnail is blank and I get an error
message that finally crashes pe7 without importing the photos.
The same thing happens if I have pe7 open and choose to import photos
choosing the iPhone as the attached device from the drop down list
This problem has started since I downloaded the new iPhone OS 3.0 - before then the import into Elements 7.0 worked fine
Is anyone aware of this bug and a way of fixing it?

I, too, have experienced the same problem - but without full resolution. I chose to have PE7 automatically download the photos from the phone upon connection/syncing and have continued to experience the "fatal error" message. Even though I cancel the action when the "fatal error" show up (and the phone syncs without further problem), I believe that the conflict messes up something within the iPhone system. For the 5th time (and 3rd phone in 2 months), it appears that every time I try to use the camera shortly after receiving the "fatal" error problem, the phone ceases to work. It works just fine as long as I don't open the camera program. So - I am now trying to figure out how to get the computer(PC)/PE7 to not automatically download pictures upon connection and see if my suspicions are accurate. Any suggestions on that question are appreciated!

Problem importing photos from nikon D3100 to MacBookPro

I am trying to import photos from my Nikon D3100 onto my MacBookPro, but can't do it either using iPhoto or Image Capture. iPhoto detects the images but doesn't display them. When I try to import them it says they are in an unrecognisable format. ImageCapture displays them only as thumbnails, and does not allow me to import them. Any ideas?

Are you shooting in RAW format, and if so, have you applied the most recent RAW compatibility software update?

Problem importing photos from Extreme Pro SD Card

Sorry if this has been covered. I atempted to import photos from my new CF card via a Griffin card reader into my iMAC. Never had a problem before, but iPhoto won't respond and won't recognize the card. Was able to import to my wife's MacBook Pro with no problem. Any thoughts? Thanks

My appologies for wasting your time. The card reader has given up the ghost!

Problem importing photos from iPhoto

I want to import photos from iPhoto. I only want to import photos from two or three albums in iPhoto on my iMac. When I plug in the iPad Air, I choose sync from selected albums. I choose the albums I want to import from and click on "sync" or "apply". When the sync process gets to step 5, "importing photos", it stays on that step never able to proceed to step 6. Is this an iCloud problem? Thanks for your help.

I found out what the problem was. "iCloud Photo Sharing" was turned off on my iPad. Now everything is working great. I would have just deleted the inquiry, but I could not find out how to do that.

Problem importing photos from my Cann 30D... PLEASE HELP!

Hi all,
I just installed my ilife 08, and since I have a problem importing the pictures from my Canon 30D into my mac.
I was able to do so before the installation (the usual, connecting the camera with a USB, iphoto opening and Import). Now when I connect the camera nothing happens.
Please help!
Is there a bug that any of you know about or do I need to do something?
THanks.
Noa.

I generally use a card reader rather than connecting direct to camera but just tried my Canon 30D with USB.
EOS Utility opened first - don't know if you have this installed.
I quit that, nothing happened.
Opened iPhoto which was not running and photos appeared for import and imported ok.
So 30D imports do work.
If you have a card reader, can you import from that - if not it might suggest your images are corrupted on the card. Do they playback fine in-camera?
I suspect you have a corrupt installation of iPhoto or Mac OS or just some old files that are not behaving with the new installation.
Do you have any plugings installed?
Running OS X 10.4.10 btw.

Problem importing photos into photos.app from camera and iPhone

Connect Nikon D300 or iPhone 5S to Mac.
Photos.app comes on.
Select: import photos.
-73 photos coming from Nikon in Nikon's RAW format, NEF. 3 would not import because of "error in file format or other problem...."
-Disconnect the camera.
-Reconnect the camera.
-Attempt to import remaining images.
-Last three images import but are now out of order relative to when they were shot.
About 20 photos and videos coming from iPhone. Similar problem but one that required repeating the above process several times to get them all imported.
Anyone else seeing this or have any idea why it would be a problem?
Thanks

"Import Photos at their Current Location"
"Copy photos to a new location and Import"
"Move photos to a new location and Import"
"Move photos as Digital Negative (DNG) and Import"
I believe I *should* have an option to add to the library (I've seen screenshots of it).
I'm not sure I understand your question, since I don't recall the screenshot you mention. However, I like to add photos to my library w/o creating a new folder, too.
Here's an example of how I do this with my Nikon photos:
1. I already have some photos in my library. One folder is labeled Nikon, where I put my D80 photos (all of them, so far).
2. When I hook my camera/memory card to the computer, I manually drag the images to that folder on my drive called "Nikon". This is the same folder I have imported into LR previously.
3. Start LR, Select "Import", and migrate to and select that same folder ("Nikon", in my case).
4. LR will tell you that it is not importing certain files, because they're already in the library. Click OK and LR will import the other, new files into the same "Nikon" folder (in my example).
Voila! ..no new folders in LR, just more photos.:)
Obviously, I've set LR's preferences to "Do nothing" when a memory card/camera is detected.
If I missed your point, sorry for the distraction.
regards,
jeff

Problem Importing Photos

I'm trying to import photos from my camera into iphoto. I have the camera connected correctly to the computer, have selected import at the import screen and get a visible indication of the photos being transferred from the camera. After disconnecting the camera when the import process finishes, however, I'm unable to locate the desired imported pictures in the photo library. I've rebuilt the iphoto library and see previous imports in the library indicating the import process worked OK previously. What am I doing wrong?

Bruce:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Do you have "Film Rolls" selected in the View menu? If not do so and then look at the top or bottom of the list of rolls to see if you can find them. Also there's a Last Roll icon in the Source pane that will have the last imported roll(s). You can set the number of last rolls to display in iPhoto's preferences.
If you still cannot find them, try using Image Capture to manually upload to the desktop and then into iPhoto as a workaround.

Problem importing photos from iPhone to PC

Recently I my computer hasn't prompted me to import photos from my iPhone to my computer. My iPhone is also not showing up in My Computer.
I have seen this topic discussed and answered for the Mac but I couldn't find any answer for the PC.
I have iTunes 9.1.1.12 and my iPhone 3GS is 3.1.3

I am also having trouble with this feature.
I have recently changed from an old XP machine to my new WIN7 machine and the import wizard will not work as it did on my XP machine. But, strangely, I also can no longer import the photos on my old XP machine either!
My iPhone 3Gs syncs fine with iTunes but the folder of photos is in the backup format and so are unusable.
Something that may be significant is in the Devices & Printers listing my iPhone is listed under 'Unspecified' as Apple Mobile Device USB driver.
I'll try to see if theres a driver update for WIN7 to see if that will list it properly and resolve the problem.

Problems importing photos from cameras

I have a iPod with video, a photo connector, a Pentax Optio WP and a Canon 350D. When I try to import photos from any of my 2 cameras it may give me the error message "an error occurred while importing". It is more likely the more photos i have to import. Say If I have to import only 10 jpg photos it does it with no problem. However if I import 500MB worth of photos with or without raw i get the error message. Once the error occurred I can't access any of the imported phots, since the menu item is missing then and i can't run any more imports. I have to connect the camera to my PC and delete all import folders to get it working again. I have set up both cameras with PTP/print and always double-check all connections
Any help would be appericiated, Thanks
iPod with Video Windows XP

Hi Spoottyipod
First off, do a soft reset on your iPod(hold down menu+centre button) this seems to fix most peoples problems. If not.
i've posted this a few times for people on here. The easy way to solve your problem is to buy the Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.0 15-in-1 Media Card Reader/Writer. model number:F5U249ea.
the reason's you should get this are. 1: it works perfect with the ipod and camera connector and is a little bit faster.
2: your can keep shooting while your saving your shot's.
if still no luck. put the CD that came with your iPod in and use the software updater on there. if you want the latest 1.1.1 go to: http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/
hope this helps you. don't hesitate to ask for any help.
-Mike
