Help importing 25'000 pictures into phootshop elements 8

I have 25'000 plus jpegs, neff files etc in one folder on hard drive
. I want to import into eleements and using elements auto file into new location on
hard drive in "date shot" folders. If i transfer
a batch of files to SD or CF disc photoshop will do this for me. How can i get it to see th
e hard drive as a camera or card so it will do the same ? Or  do i have to export batches to SD card and then import back ?

Here's an alternative thought ... don't worry about having the folder names being the capture dates. It isn't necessary for any next step that you might want to attempt in the Organizer.

  • How to import a jpeg image into premier elements 12?

    how do  i import a jpeg image into premier elements 12?

    chuckx
    Just for background information, what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running on?
    The generalized answer is Add Media/Files and Folders/Projects Assets from where you drag the photo to the Expert view Timeline.
    But all that can generate a mountain of questions about the photo and the project into which it will be going
    a. what are the pixel dimensions of the photo - will or will I not have to resize or crop/resize the photo for the project
    b. is the photo going into a project that will consist of photos and videos
    c. if video inclusion, that leads to questions about the properties of the video so that you can set the project preset to match those
    d. that leads to questions on the best size to have your photo before you import them into this project.
    So, one simple question generates a lot of side questions.
    Please let us know how we might help to sort out the details for your Premiere Elements workflow and its source media.
    Thank you.

  • Importing iphoto 09 pictures into imovie 09 with ken burns movement!

    Im making a video on imovie 09 using still images i took and imported to iphoto. Then i import those iphoto pictures into imovie, BUT all the pictures have moving "ken burns" crop effects on them after i import them to imovie!!! i know how to fix it, by going to the "crop tool" and "ken burns" adjusting the start and end effect of this movement but my question is....
    how do i change this setting so I dont have to tediously use the cropping ken burns tool on every clip which will probably make all the images appear shaky??????

    Go to FILE/PROJECT PROPERTIES and you can set the default behavior when importing photos to the project.

  • How do I resolve this error while importing iPhoto 11 photos into Photoshop Elements 11?

    I am trying to import my iPhoto library into Elements.  It gets part way through the process and then tells me that the import failed and provides the following message:
    2090 Media files have been imported.  19 Media files were not imported because the either already present in the catalog or are not supported
    It unfortunately give you no indication about what you can do to resolve or fix this problem.  Can someone provide some guidance here?

    Hi, I am not a user of elements however my wife is.  She has been complaining of this issue since we have over 75000 pictures and 15000 will not import into the catalog. After searching forum after forum I could not find a solution. So I gave it some thought. After a little testing I found out why. Remember that Elements catalog is like a long list of file names.  Like many people who take lots of pictures unless you sit and rename every picture to a unique file name then you will have this problem.  Example: Your camera shoots pictures and names them Img_0001, Img_0002, Img_0003 etc. when you download them to a folder called "76 class reunion" and add to elements. Then delete the pictures from your camera and take new ones. Your camera starts again with Img_0001, Img_0002, Img_0003 etc.  You import them to a folder called "78 trip to thailand". Then try adding them to Elements and the message "...media files were not imported because they are already Most cameras keep numbering up but not all. At some point they repeat so it could be a year in between before your pictures present...."
    Or course they are after thousands of picutres you will duplicate the files names several times. Just rename the image files in "78 trip to thailand" to be like 1978-Thailand-img_0001, 1978-Thailand-img_0002 etc and then import/add to elements and success.  You might ask why they are in differing folders I am importing them from it should catalog the folder and file. Well I could go into a long discussion about databases however just know this. If you try to copy Img_0001 from "78 trip to thailand" to the folder "76 class reunion" you will get a message saying do you want to overwrite the file. This is because they have the same name (can exits in different folders but not the same). Elements takes all the file names and places them in a list so each file name is UNIQUE and cannot be duplicated. Then it catalogs where they are found (ei the folder/directory).
    If you are now depressed that you need to rename all your files one at a time.  Try Bulk Rename Utility. It is great and has many renaming capabilties to rename files to your delight.

  • Importing a "pse" file into Premiere Elements

    I need to know if I create an album in Premiere Photoshop, why can't I import it into Premiere Elements?   A message comes up with "this type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed"  Can I install the correct codec? and from where and how?
    Hope someone can help
    Thanks Trish

    Welcome to the forum.
    As Steve G. points out, the PSE file is the PSE Project file, and basically an XML database. This ARTICLE, while addressing PREL (Premiere Elements Project files) will give you some background on Project files in general.
    Good luck,

  • Problem importing some .MOV files into Premiere Elements 11

    Hello,
    I am trying to import film footage into Premiere Elements 11 and am coming across a rather confusing problem. All of the footage is in .mov format and all of it was taken on the same device on the same day with the same settings.
    When I try to import the footage, some files import ok, others will not import at all and I get a message saying 'The importer reported a generic error'. It seems very odd to me that some .MOV files are OK and others are not.
    This same footage can easily be imported into Premiere Elements 10 and into Windows Movie Maker - which makes me think the issue is with Premiere Elements 11.
    Does anyone have any ideas on this?
    Thanks

    What model of camcorder is your video coming from and what format and resolution is it? Did you use Premiere Elements to get the video from the camcorder to your computer?
    Have you ensured you have the latest version of Quicktime installed on your computer?

  • HELP importing folders of pictures!

    I'm new to Macs. I'm making a presentation on iMovie. I've already imported one folder of pictures, and I have others that I need to import. However, when I import the next one, the pictures mix in with the ones already there. I need the folders need to be imported separately. How can I do this? Thanks!

    No preference I have ever heard of - i have no idea why this
    would happen - there must be something
    wrong with the 5th image? How big are these images?

  • Itunes won't import all iPhoto pictures into iPhone or iPad

    Don't know where this belongs so I posted it in the iPhoto group.
    I recently updated to Lion (10.7.2). I currently use iPhoto 9.2.1 with itunes 10.5. I sync my my iPhoto pics (all events/albums/faces/etc) to my iPhone 3GS and iPad 2 (both iOS5). I recently imported three events to iPhoto. I have tried to sync my new events to my devices but the photo tally for each event is "0" in itunes. The events do not show on my devices after syncing. However, they still exist in my iPhoto library.
    Additionally, when I recently tried to export the three events to a thumb drive, I received a message that the volume for those photos could not be found. I tried Find>Reveal in Finder but both options are greyed out. To remedy this problem I trashed the three events in iPhoto, deleted my iPod cache and reimported the three events. However, this did not fix anything. Essentially my new events are in my iPhoto library but they aren't "on my computer." If anyone can please help I will appreciate it!
    PS - This seems to have happened after I updated my devices to iOS5. Would this have anything to do with it?

    Hi, good news: it syncs again!
    I wasn't sure how to reinstall everything (suggestions from different discussions) so I firstly deleted the "Archive" and all picture folders from iPhone:
    Uncheck  sync in the iTunes tab "Pictures" and "apply".  iTunes asks whether to keep or to delete all previously synchronised pictures: answer "delete". (Or "remove", my iTunes speeks German :-))
    Then check the button synchronise again and voila, it works. Magic, is'nt it?
    Regards

  • Import non iPhoto picture into iMovie

    Hi
    First time poster, long time lurker.
    is there anyway to use non iPhoto pictures in iMovie.
    As a professional tog, I have never really used or liked iPhoto, so have mine catalogued and filed elsewhere.
    Hope you guys can help.

    It's you, and people do mind you butting in. Stop hijacking other people's threads, it is not the done thing.
    If you have a question start you own post, jumping in on another thread just causes confusion.
    When you are in iMovie you select the small button that shows a camera on it (on the right hand side between the Music note and the 'T'. You should then see your iPhoto library, and be able to drag photos from here into your project. This is a standard operation in iMovie, if this does not work then you have some other issue on your machine that you have created during the transfer of the content from your PC.

  • Help- Importing DV movie file into FCP how do I change my FCP settings

    I am importing 5 different dv movie files that are approx 114.1mb each into Final Cut Pro. I opened a new project.. imported the files. Now I want to start putting together my sequence, but I need to change some settings, and I don't know where to start.
    When I go to insert the portion of one of the files into the sequence I get a popup saying
    "Attention- This clip does not match the sequence's settings or any of your sequence presets.
    For best performance your sequence and External Video should be set to the format of the clips you are editing.
    Change sequence settings to match the clip settings?"
    (No) (Yes)
    I obviously need to select yes.. but then i'm not sure what to choose after that.
    Could someone guide me please?
    Thank you

    They are .dv (person who sent them to me used imovie to upload their video they shot)
    So I need to open them in compressor and find the preset to convert them to dv quicktimes.
    Once they are dv quicktimes and I import them into my new project. Should I be good to go?
    Sorry for the novice questions... I do appreciate your help.

  • Cant import NEF RAW images into Photoshop Elements 9.

    before anyone says i have the updated camera raw plug in because i have already looked so it should work, but it doesnt.
    i took the images with the Nikon D3200 i NEF RAW format.
    but photoshop kept on saying that the format was not supported, i was opening them up through FILE, OPEN, then i was browsing for the photos, but it would keep ion saying that the file was not supported.
    but then i saw some where that you ha to open the image up through OPEN AS, so i did it that way, and for a moment it looked like it was working but then photoshop elements 9 crashed and it said it couldnt open up the image due to problem, can someone help me.
    for the time being i will just use the JPEG images because i took and NEF RAW image and a JPEG image at the same time, which later on i will just replace the image with the NEF RAW image when i get it to work.
    but until then cam some one help me try to get it to work, thank you.

    before anyone says i have the updated camera raw plug in because i have already looked so it should work, but it doesnt.
    The problem is that PSE9 will not support the version of camera raw that is needed for D3200 RAW files.
    To make use of these D3200 RAW files, you need to download the FREE Adobe DNG Converter (version 8.2) and then use that software to convert the RAW to DNG.
    Alternatively, you could purchase PSE 12, and then your D3200 RAW files will open properly without need for a converter.
