Folders for saving imported files - "From Files or Folders"?

When I "get" photos into PSE 10 from my camera or card reader, I have the option of saving each photo to a folder named after the shot date. I can also delete the original once it has been copied to my PC. Is there a way to do the same thing for photos imported using "Get Photos > From Files or Folders"? When I use the From Files and Folders route, the file organization scheme is entirely different and I would like to use the same storage organization that applies when I "get" photos from my camera or card reader.
Thanks,
Bob

Warning !
There is a big difference between getting files from camera or card reader (this implies a copy from the camera or card reader to your computer) and getting files from files and folders (already present in your computer). In the last case there is no copy (no download), just a recording in the database of the real location of the files already in your computer.
You can delete the original in the first case : it has been transferred to your computer by the downloader module. In the second case, there is no copy and the catalog is only a list of the files and their  location (paths) on your computer drive. Deleting originals will delete all.
If you want to organize your already present folders in a similar date scheme at the default option of the downloader, you'll have to move or rename existing files and folders. The only way to do this would be to do the moves and renaming from the organizer itself, not from the explorer. A lot of work, and totally useless if you use the right tools like tags, categories or albums.

  • "Preview for Files Not Available" & "Failed to Find a Place for the Imported File"??

    When I export RAW images into LR, some say "Preview for Files Not Available".  Also, it says "Failed to Find a Place for the Imported File".  Why?  What can I do to resolve this

  • Import Manager Usage : Approaches for developing Import file structure and text validations

    Hi Experts,
    We are having 50+ import maps. We have provided option to users to drop the files for data import. Currently Import Manager(7.1 Sp08) does not have capability of pre-import validation of file data such as
    a. file structure - number of columns specific to import map
    b. file text validations - special characters, empty lines, empty cells
    c. Uniqueness of the records in the file
    For this, we are planning to build temporary folder(port specific) in which user drops in the file. We use the custom development to do above mentioned validations and then move the files to actual import ports.
    Please let us know if you have worked on similar requirements and how you have fulfilled such requirements.
    Regards,
    Ganga

    Hi Ganga,
    Assuming you have a well defined xsd and are getting valid xmls from source in the Inbound Port of MDM. Also,you have a Primary key in form of External ID (say).
    So just by making and defining a XSD you get most of what you want in your questions a and b.
    Now if you wish to use PI to drop files in the inbound port then you can build all the validations in PI itself and you would not need Staging table.
    Otherwise,you can have another table (preferably Main table) in the same repository or other dummy repository where records are created on import based on External ID.
    Here you can launch an MDM workflow on import of these records and run assignments to replace unwanted characters and Validations to give error for rejecting some records based on the data quality level desired.Once unwanted characters are removed and data is validated it can be syndicated using a syndication step in the Workflow.So records which fail are not sent and which pass are sent to a outbound port.
    From the outbound port PI or some other job can pick the file from this outbound folder and drop to Inbound folder of the same repository which imports to the required Primary Main table.Here again you have the option to leverage validations in PI and further check if data is fine.
    Once this activity is done you can delete the records from the staging table.
    Thanks,

  • Permissions / umask settings for saving a file

    When saving a file using either acrobat itself or the acrobat plug in for firefox the umask settings of the linux system are not honored. The file gets saved with permissions 600 instead of permissions 644. This is a problem for users who save files in shared directories that are accessed by other users. Currently, users need to manually adjust the permissions of the file after they save it when they save onto a shared directory so that other users can view the pdf.
    Is there anyway to override the acrobat defaults for this?

    I have the same problem. We have to share pdf files with other users.  I tested with different Adobe readers (8.x , 9.x ). I tested on RH Linux and on Solaris - always the same result. File permissions after saving are 600 (rw-------) instead of 644 (rw-r--r--).  Adobe reader ingores the systems standard umask.
    Any help whould be great.

  • Error Codes for Non-importable Files?

    Hello!
    During the beta phase I used a rather small library from a sample of
    my own images. After installing v1 today I deleted everything from the
    library to get a clean database. I imported all of my photos on hard
    drives.
    Curiously after import finished LR gave me a list of files it could
    not import, just stating that various errors occurred. The files were
    TIFFs, NEFs, PSDs; at least some of them are layered, some have been
    worked on in Capture NX [some of the NEFs obviously]. Since other
    files with the same features have come through, I am a bit confused:
    what errors can there be?
    Anybody an idea, or can you point me onto a list on such errors?

    I also found that out of a 3,000 file import, I had 1 PSD and maybe 10 jpegs that wouldn't import. They all opened ok in photoshop. The PSD, I resaved, and it imported fine. I set the jpegs aside for now. I suspect Lightroom is rather unforgiving of small discrepancies in the files.

  • How do I change the opacity settings for photoshop imported files?

    I am importing a series of photoshop files into CS6 Premiere Pro. There is no background color on the photoshop images, and when I preview them in Premiere's import window, the background appears white. Once I import them into premiere, however, the background becomes black.
    I read that a completely transparent alpha channel from photoshop is rendered as black in premiere, so I tried placing a plain white image in another video track so that it might change the transparent background to white. It didn't work-- the background if each image is still black.
    How can I make a non-existant background layer from my photoshop images appear as white in Premiere, without having to change each file individually?
    Thanks!!!
    Alex

    Nevermind-- I figured out that if I modify> interpret footage> ignore alpha channel, and leave the white background on a lower video track, the background appears white!

  • Option for saving a file as a pdf is not available in scroll down menu

    I've been trying to save a file as a pdf by selecting print but pdf does not show up for one of the options in the scroll down menu. All I have to choose from is Fax, hp psc 1200 series and Microsoft XPS Document Writer. I was able to do this back in November but don't know why I can't now. I have Adobe Reader on my computer.

  • Options for saving PDF files in Acrobat X Pro

    In Adobe Acrobat X Pro, there are options to Save a file as PDF/A, PDF/X, and PDF/E.  I could not find a description on what those switches/parameters do.  Would appreciate anyone telling me how they differ from a regular Save, or where I can find online documentation for them.

    In short you can find several references on line for these:
    PDF/A - Archive format
    PDF/X - For publishers
    PDF/E - Optimized for engineering drawings
    For more info, check the web as suggested. The ISO is even there.

  • Can I install a PDF writer such as CutePDF on my Mac?  Or, how do I create PDF files for saving in files?

    I am looking to install a PDF writer so I can capture documents and save them to a customer file.  Is there an Apple function for this or do I need to install a PDF program?

    Like Alberto Ravasio wrote, OS X contains an option to output anything you see as PDF.
    See
    Preview (Yosemite): Print PDFs and images
    So for example, if you are doing research and see an article on Wikipedia that you want to save, you go to the File menu in Safari and select Export as PDF, give it a name, and a location on your drive.  You can then open those documents with Preview or with Adobe Reader.
    Similarly, if you use Pages or Numbers or Excel or Word, you can send the output to a PDF file, similar as if you were printing it. So no, you don't need a PDF writer.
    I am looking to install a PDF writer so I can capture documents and save them to a customer file.  Is there an Apple function for this or do I need to install a PDF program?
    But if you are looking for screen scrapers or data collectors, that is something else.
    This PDF ability in OS X is a major advantage the Mac has had over the years.  It is often forgotten as to how well it really works and how flexible, along with Preview, it works.

  • I-text for saving html files using java

    hi,
    i'm writng a small application and it has some report generation part based on some html templates.
    These templates have some images which are given the relative path in the html template files.
    when i generate my reports they generated and save in some other location and the thing is quite naturally all the image files are missing. can anyone help me to overcome this problem??
    thanks in advance.

    If you are using Windows take a look at what Internet explorer does when you save a web page
    If the files is save as MyFile.htm the browser will create a folder called MyFile_Files and store all the images there. and it will modify the code of the html file to refer those images.
    I think that you will have to do the same.
    Or
    Find some API which can convert HTML page in to PDF and save PDF then you will get a one file with everything in it. I think that is a better solution.
    But the way If you found such an API dont foget to post here about it . I have the same problem and I dont like the solution one

  • Thinking that I was deleting from my iPod, I have inadvertently deleted a lot of music from my iTunes library.  I clicked for retaining on file rather than sending to trash.  How do I get this music back from file into my library?

    Thinking that I was deleting it from my iPod, I have inadvertently deleted a lot of music from my iTunes library.  I clicked for saving to file rather than sending to trash.  How can I get it back into my library?

    See Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash or simply import the media folder back into the library. Restoring a recent backup of the .itl database will restore the original date added values, ratings, play counts, playlist membership, etc. that would otherwise be missing from the reimported media.

  • Problem in saving a file in FTP server

    Hi,
    I am trying to move one zip file from an FTP directory to another. I use the below code.
    OPEN DATASET gv_fname FOR INPUT IN BINARY MODE.

                      DO.
                        READ DATASET gv_fname INTO gs_zip_bin.

    The file get moved successfully. However, when I download the file on to my desktop and when I unzip it, it gives an error message "Cannot open the file; it does not appear to be a valid archive'.
    I also notice that there is a size difference between the original and the archived file as in the picture below.
    I tries using the SCMS_UPLOAD and SCMS_DOWNLOAD function modules to achieve this and it works perfectly.
    However, I did not find any documentation for these function modules and I am not sure if I can use them. I intend to run this program in the background mode.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Fixed it: Delete preferences.
    First, I was wary about deleting preferences because I used EasyFind to search for "textedit" and found many files in different folders throughout the OS and user folders.  I feared deleting the wrong thing.
    So with the EasyFind window open with the search results sorted by date last changed, I opened TextEdit and then its preferences and made a minor change, saved it and then closed the app.
    I then ran EasyFind again sorting by date last changed and the top two items were the only preference files that were changed.  Deleted those two and now all is well.
    EasyFind is freeware found in the App store.  It's invaluable.  I use it often.
