Files missing or off line

I reciently downloaded dng files to a removable harddrive.
I can see them in Lightroom (library)but get a message that they are off line or missing when I open the develope module.
I can see them on the hard drive and when I attempt to import them LR says they are already there? I also noticed that about 300 of the dng files went to the harddrive without the jpg thumbnail.

The photos have either been moved, renamed or deleted outside of Lightroom. If they have been moved outside of Lightroom (or if the drive letter has changed, which can happen on Windows computers), then you reconnect them via http://www.computer-darkroom.com/lr2_find_folder/find-folder.htm
By the way, re-importing photos is almost never a good thing to do. It is almost always a bad thing to do. I would advise you to get this idea out of your mind.

  • Images missing or off-line

    when i want to go to edit in cs3 or to develop module, i get the  error message that images are missing or off-line, despite the fact that the images are still on my desktop as well as backed up on the external hard drive(which is turned on). help. also, is there any way to reconvert dng images back to raw or tiffs?

    If the image in grid view has a ? icon in the upper right then LR does not know where the source file is. Click on that icon and tell it where to fine the file. If all your images where moved outside LR then LR would lose track. You could also try to synchronize the folder if they are all in the same relative structure.
    Unless you stored the original RAW file in the DNG there is no way to get back to the original RAW. However, with very few exceptions all of the original RAW information is in the DNG file so there's no need to convert back.

  • Missing or Off Line photos - user problem

    Help!!  I'm fairly new with lightroom 3 maybe had it for a year and just up graded to lightroom  4 because I got a new camera and I continue having some of my photos missing or offline. I did call the support line with abobe and they did find most of them. Some how I had move them without realizing
    what I did. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong when downloading my pictures from my camera card to lightroom?  Any websites that I can go to for help on this and for help locating them on my computer?  Thanks

    The reason photos show up as missing in LR is that you move or rename or delete photos (or the folders that contain them) outside of Lightroom. Another reason that photos can become missing (in Windows) is that the letter of the external drive changes, something Windows will do sometimes.
    One thought about finding these photos is to look up the name of the photo in LR (for example, DSC_0783.nef), then have your operating system search all hard drives for this photo.

  • Render files keep going off-line

    OS 10.5.4 FCP 6.0.4
    Deleted prefs file, but everytime I quit and relaunch FCP, the files I rendered out previously are offline.
    I reset all scratch disk locations still getting same results.
    Anyone have a suggestion?

    Could be a problem with the drive that the renders reside on. Do a repair on the drive using the disk utility. Get DiskWarrior and run that on the drive. Repair permissions.

  • Files going off line

    I don't seem to have a problem with files going off line after capturing, but when I send a file to motion and send it back to final cut it goes off line. Can someone tell me what causes files to go off line, and what I need to do to correct this? Thanks
    Michael

    If you are editing the file you send to motion, and saving it, then it is normal for the file to show up as offline. Just right click and relink, if its still in the same place, it should find it in no time.
    What files exactly are the ones going offline? .motn?

  • TS3276 My mail account has gone off line.  How do I get it back on line?  I think I sent an email file that was too big.

    My mail account has gone off line.  How do I get it back on line?  I think I sent an email file that was too big.

    Hi,
    When you have the browser open (Internet Explorer) then press the Alt key on the keyboard. It should show you the file options at the top..Then uncheck work offline and check..
    Note:
    If you have HP Support Assistant installed on the computer(The Blue Question Mark) then open it ==> Complete all pending Updates & Tuneups==> Restart and Check. It may solve your problem
    Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.

  • How do I save files to my mobile device for off-line use?

    I want to download my files to my iPad for reference when the device is off-line.  Can this be done through Adobe.com

    OK, I just tested this out and it appears that once you open the file while on-line, it is downloaded automatically and available off-line from that point on. 
    Not sure if subsequent highlighting will sync, but I will give it a test run as well.
    If anyone knows an easy way to open multiple files instead of doing each one individually, that would be great.
    Thank you in advance.

  • Where is my EXPORT dump file ? How to do BRTools off line table reorgan ?

    Hello,
    Here was my BRTools Export output message :
    About to export specified tables via Direct Path ...
    Current user changed to SAPPRD
    . . exporting table                          CDHDR   60357362 rows exported
    Export terminated successfully without warnings.

    BR0670I Enter 'c[ont]' to continue, 'b[ack]' to go back, 's[top]' to abort:
    But where is my Export dump file ?
    Besides, could you tell me the procedures of using BRTools Export & Import to do off-line table reorgan ?
    Due to some reasons, I can't do online table reorgan.

    Hi Ming,
    I noted the OSS note 646681 - Reorganizing tables with BRSPACE in my previous message, already. You don't need any additional effort such as creating script, if you use brspace as I noted in my last message.
    Stop the SAP system, but not database then execute the command, below;
    1) brspace -u / -f tbreorg -t "CDHDR"
    2) At the incoming menu steps, select --> (8 - Table reorganization mode (mode)) .. offline
    3) Then continue with "c"
    At the end of this steps, table and related indexes will be reorganized.
    You can update statistics by using the command, below after you complete the steps, above respectfully;
    brconnect -u / -c -f stats -t all -f collect -p 4
    Best regards,
    Orkun Gedik

  • Files are off line now encoder wont work

    I have been working on a slideshow in Premiere pro CS4 saved all my files went over to After effects for a day came back to Premiere and all of my files were off line I tried to reconnect them and it said files are to big (Something like that) so I deleted all of my projects and started over now Ive tried to export one simple photo for a slide show and does not show up in the adobe media encoder.Im not doing anything crazy here.Oh the pain
    Any help is appreciated.

    OK, after you Scale your image, do a Render. Remember, previewing in the Program Monitor is just an emulation. To view for critical grading, a calibrated CRT TV monitor will be better. However, you can set your Program Monitor to display 100% (not Fit), and Display Quality to Highest.
    Also be aware that the scaling algorithms in PrPro are not as good as those in Photoshop and offer far less control over the scaling. I do all of my resizing in PS, prior to Import into PrPro, and establish the exact size that I will need, usually the exact Frame Size as my Project, or calculated to the exact size that I will need, if I must pan on a zoomed out image. This ARTICLE will give you some tips on resizing in PS.
    Hope that this helps on the quality issue, and good luck,

  • Off line files

    When I went to work on my project this morning two things happened: I got a version of my project that's at least two weeks old and a message saying that 23 files went off line. The files were identified as "Sequence 1 Fin 0000004c, 52, 4d," etc. When I clicked on the tab to reconnect the files, a window appeared with all the files for my project and with the names I've given them, not the sequence numbers. None of them are highlighted (or dark or whatever the word is), so I can't click on them to get them rerendered or reconnected.
    What do I do?!
    Two things that may or may not be relevant:
    1) After I finished and saved all my work yesterday, and closed FCP, I pulled out an FCP file from the trash and opened to see what it was. Satisfied, I closed and put it back in the trash. This is what is opening as my current project (actually, this does sound pretty relevant).
    2) After the above, I downloaded the latest version of Quick Time.
    Mac Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.10)   Final Cut Studio 5.1

    Presumably you have your preferences set to open the last project file when you launch FCP? This would explain the older project opening.
    When FCP opens, just close the (old, unwanted) project and navigate to the current one - if you have difficulty in finding it, use Spotlight.
    Once all's working OK again, it would be wise to empty the trash (fcp will sometimes find and use files that are in the trash).
    Quad 8GB. 250+500 HDs. G-Raid 1TB. NORTON. FCP 5.1.2. QT 7.1.3. Panasonic HVX200   Mac OS X (10.4.9)
