Duplicate DNG's from Adobe converter to light room

I am having an issue with moving or adding DNG's to lightroom after a conversion is performed by Adobe DNG converter ~ lightroom is creating a 2nd folder within the folder I created ~ each folder is having the new, converted images uploaded, therefore creating duplicates ~ I'm  wondering how this is happening?!?

OK ~ here are the exact steps I've been performing (files are DNG & I am converting them to Lossy ~ performing following functions in bulk)
in Adobe DN Converter
1 ~ Select Folder with images to convert
2 ~ Select location to save converted images
3 ~ Select name for converted images
File extension .dng
Preferences ~
Camera Raw 7.1 and later
JPEG preview ~ Medium
Check Use Lossy Compression ~ Preserve Pixel Count
then Convert
After Conversion in LR Import photos & video ~ select Source ~ select Move ~ select To:
Select Import
once import to LR this is where there is a 2nd folder created & the images are in both the 'target' folder as well as in the folder that was created by LR ~ therefore duplicate images

  • Is it wise to keep the Nikon camera files "DSC's"  after downloading them and converting to DNG files via Adobe converter for lightroom use. In other words do the DNG files have all the raw data I would ever need in processing or should I save the camera'

    Is it wise to keep the Nikon camera files "DSC's"  after downloading them and converting to DNG files via Adobe converter for lightroom use. In other words do the DNG files have all the raw data I would ever need in processing or should I save the camera's DSC files?

    DNG files do not contain some metadata supplied by the camera, which can be used by the manufacturer's software. Thus, if you don't keep the original Raw photo, you will lose this information.
    If your 1000% sure you're never going to use the manufacturer's software, then this isn't a problem. But who can be sure what software you will be using 10 years from now?

  • Why does lightroom 5 do not read or can't find my raw files when I'm trying to import my images from my camera to light room

    It just started happening out of the ordinary. I had a photo shoot done today. I came home plugged my camera usb to my mac lap top and tried to import my raw files as i usually do into light room 5 to edit my images. This time the same error message popped up stating it couldn't read or my files weren't found over and over again. Neither the new ones nor the old pictures was able to import them. Please Help!

    I just bought Lightroom and have the same problem - MacBook Pro with OS X 10.10.1. LR actually displays the photos properly when previewing but fails when starting the import. Also, a couple of times it would start but would hang up. I think it may be a Yosemite problem. I was having trouble importing with Aperture too. The fail message from LR was:
    The following files were not imported because they could not be read. (6)

        IMGP7942.JPG
        IMGP7944.JPG
        IMGP7943.JPG
        IMGP7945.JPG

    I can copy the folder from the camera to my desktop and then import. That works but of course I shouldn't have to do that.

  • I have just bought all this adobe stuff, bought light room 5 after I entered my serial number, it said I need the previous number. i don't have one??

    I need help. just purchased the daobe light room and can't get further than the serial number, says i need previous number. I'm confused

    If you buy an Upgrade you will need to have a previous version of Lightroom ... a Full version doesn't need a previous serial number.
    Did you buy and "Upgrade" or "Full" version?
    If you wanted full but bought an upgrade you will need to contact Adobe customer support.

  • Lightroom 5 from cloud install - lost light room and it will not reinstall

    I have had lightroom since version 3, made all the upgrades, last week I installed version 5 through the cloud and it would not start yet the cloud says it is up to date. I have spent all morning looking for an answer. I uninstalled lightroom 5 but the cloud still says it is installed. I deleted the odp file and restarted my computer several times and it still says it is installed and will not reinstall!
    Trying to find an answer or a person to talk to has been a very poor experience for the likes of Adobe.

    David Irvine please be aware you are posting in a public forum.  I have edited your previous post to remove your e-mail address.
    What four files are you referring too?  The only file referenced being removed is the OPM.db file.
    What process did you utilize to remove Photoshop Lightroom 5?  What operating system are you wishing to install Photoshop Lightroom on?

  • Convert Catalog from Adobe Photoshop Album to Photoshop Elements 13

    Hello Community!
    I've searched for this question in Google, but I didn't find an answer that helped me.
    The old computer from my client with Windows XP OS is getting replaced by a new one with Windows 7.
    There was Adobe Photoshop Album on the old one which isn't supported anymore. My client had over 15'000 pictures on his old PC which I've already copied on the new computer. Now he wants his albums, tags and these things from Adobe Photoshop Album back, so I decided to install Photoshop Elements 13 because of the Elements Organizer tool.
    Now I've seen answers in forums that sayed that all these informations are saved in the "My Albums.psa" Catalog file, which I've already found on the old computer and copied on the new one. Some people sayed it would work with the "convert" option in PSE, but this doesn't work for me, because PSE doesn't see the .psa file. So I tried to convert my .psa file with this Tool, but in the middle of the progress it says that it failed and that I should try to repair the file in PSE. I'm now stuck here, with several different solutions, and yet I don't know what to do now.
    I've read something about the folder structure and that the pictures and folders have to be on the harddisk when trying to convert the .psa file. All pictures are on the new computer, but of course the folders aren't the same on the new OS.
    It would be glad if I find a solution as soon as possible from someone in the community.
    Thanks and have a nice day!

    Finally I could solve the problem.
    I tried to import the Backup.tly in Photoshop Elements, but without success. Even there an Error appeared. The conversion tool also still got this failure at a progress of 15% conversion... So I searched a reason for the failure in google and found this helpful article from Adobe. It says that you should look for the corrupt images in the log file. So did I, and I found the error causing picture on the old computer and deleted it. After that I opened Photoshop Album, clicked on "File > Reconnect all missing files" and deleted this picture from the catalog.
    Now I didn't want to make the backup again, because the last nearly had 1h. So I decided to try it again by just copying the catalog.psa from the old computer to the new one and to convert it again with the conversion tool. The error came again, but at a progress of 22% So i had to do this a few times: Searching the corrupt image in the log file, deleting it on the old computer, deleting the missing file in Photoshop Album and converting it. And finally, it worked, no error after conversion! I let photoshop elements 13 open the new .pse13 file. Now, all tags and albums were back on Photoshop Elements. Eventually, I let the programm searching the new paths of all the images. It takes a time but it works great now. Thanks for your help, I would recommend the Adobe Community & support!

  • Trouble converting a catalog from Adobe Photoshop Album into Elements 9

    I have looked all over and found instructions for converting a catalog from Adobe Photoshop Album into Photoshop Elements 9, but it does not see my catalog?  I have tried selecting it by clicking "Find More Catalogs" and I select the folder containing the catalog but it does not show up and the option to "Show Previously Converted Catalogs" is disabled?  I am quite frustrated, as the entire reason for purchasing Adobe Photoshop Elements was to be able to import my old Photoshop Album catalog.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you for the suggestion, I have tried converting the catalog from the psa file as well as restoring from the psb (backup) file and neither one is working on my new computer.  It partially converts the catalog from Photoshop Album (PSA) 2 but then all the file links are broken in Photoshop Elements (PSE) 9.  I have about 10,000 photos in this catalog, so it is a lot of files.  I still have my old computer so I tried installing PSE 9 on it and then it converted the PSA catalog fine, so I backup up the PSE 9 catalog on my old computer and tried doing a restore from this backup on my new computer and same thing, only some of the files come through.

    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?

  • Olympus E-P1: Why DNG files from DNG-Converter, Lightroom or CameraRaw are invalid ?

    Hello from Spain:
    I've got a Olympus Pen E-P1.
    I work with DNG Converter 5.5, Lightroom 2.5, CameraRaw 5.5, Photoshop CS4 with my *.ORF files with no problems, and I can convert ORF in DNG with those software smooth, but...
    I can't open those DNG files with DNG Profile Editor. It display a error message "Could not open the selected image. Note that the selected image must be a valid DNG color image".
    I'm trying to create a E-P1 DNG Profile using ColorChecker Passport. When I try to import a DNG file displays a similar error message "Can't open the file. Is a invalid DNG file".
    What is occurring about DNG files from E-P1's ORF?.
    Thank you,

    Hi divabuyer,
    It sounds like you're trying to convert to Word from within Reader, is that so? Are you signed in to Reader? If so, you'll see your name in the upper-right corner of the Reader application window.
    If that doesn't work, please try llogging in to https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf with your Adobe ID and password.
    Let us know how it goes.

    I wanted to check is there any simple JAVA API from Adobe to achive this ? Any direction in this regard is greatly appreciated.@

    You can achieve this using LiveCycle PDF Generator JAVA API. You can find required code here:
    Adobe LiveCycle * Quick Start (SOAP mode): Converting a Microsoft Word document to a PDF document using the Java API
    In parameters:
    //Set createPDF2 parameter values
    String adobePDFSettings = "Standard";
    String securitySettings = "No Security";
    String fileTypeSettings = "Standard OCR";
    "Standard OCR" file type setting will run OCR on input pdf. In the code, instead of doc file provide a pdf file. Resultant pdf will be searchable PDF i.e OCRed PDF.
    Feel feel to ask any further questions.
