How to Make Folders Visible in Library

I want to view folders in library to make sorting easier but my template of folders (created in Finder) will not show.  Before I cull my images,  I'd like to be able to sort/shove specific images into specific folders before culling.  It appears that the only way to see these folders is to have an image in them.
How do I get these folders to appear in Library?

ACDSee's strength is its photo management.
One of Lightroom's strengths is photo management.
Your task of organizing can be done in any one of a variety of ways, including folders, keywords, collections, captions, etc. You really have a lot of choices to accomplish this.
The way I would do this is set up the following keywords "Pregame", "Concourse Shots", "Candids", etc. Then, photos go into folders by capture date or by event (I prefer capture date, but that's me); when it's time for you to search for specific photos, you can then select the desired folder and use the Filter Bar to find only the "Concourse Shots" from that event.
... but so many people say that sorting/culling in LR is great.
I have not heard this statement and I would not say that myself. In fact I would say Lightroom is okay for sorting (but very powerful for organizing and filtering); and as far as culling goes, I don't think Lightroom has any particular advantages over any other software.

  • How to make folders

    This might have been answered in a different topic but i was just wondering how to make folders in Mail. I don't know if you can but... just a folder i can name and have it say "Friends" and then put the email from my friends in that folder.

    At the menu bar, go to Mailbox and select New Mailbox.
    If you are accessing a .Mac type account or an IMAP account with Mail, the location options are "On My Mac" which is stored locally on the hard drive or the .Mac or IMAP account which will create a server stored mailbox.
    If you aren't accessing a .Mac type account or IMAP, "On My Mac" is your only location choice.
    Enter a name for the mailbox and select OK.

  • How to make folders in photo?

    How to make folders in the photo app pre-loaded on the IPad?

    Whne you are in the screen where you can select which Album to view, there should be an Edit button top right of the screen - tap that and then tap the New Album button that will then show top left and name your new album. You will then be shown thumbnails of your photos so that you can 'copy' those photos into that new album.
    From what I understand with how it works, those photos won't be moved into the new album, instead they will remain in the original album and a pointer to them will go in the new album - so if you then delete the photo from its original album it will also be removed from all new albums that you've 'copied' it into.

  • Library is invisible - how to make it visible

    I would like to make all folders visible in Mac OS Lion.
    It seems that Library is not visible, not from the home folder
    I want to restore the  Firefox Profile Folder  from Time Machine, and this Profile Folder is in the invisible Library.

    While you are a much better writer than I am, they need to get to Show View Options not Get Info, you access the view options for a folder from inside it because you are editing the way finder displays the files. See how I have a custom background color and text size (the defalult might actualy be 14 I don't remimber).

    Hi,
    Are you regenerating a new installer with B1DE 1.3 or are you upgrading your old installer to VS2005?
    If you are regenerating your installer, what kind of error are you having? Do you have a directory in your project called AddOnRegDataGenFile? Can you check the contents of the files is correct (mainly the path and file names)?
    The installer.exe is created without problem?
    If you are upgrading the installer project:
    How are you trying to regenerate the .ard file? Are you using the .bat files autogenerated by B1DE installer wizard?
    If it is the case you should check the .bat and .xml files inside the AddOnRegDataGenFile directory of your installer. This files have the complete path of many needed files, if you have moved this files to a different location or changed the name of a directory then the .bat files will not work anymore.
    Please check the .bat and .xml contents, specially the paths and file names.
    Regards
    Trinidad.

  • How to make folders stay collapsed in list view in finder?

    could someone please tell me if there is a way to make folders stay collapsed next time you open that particular folder (like they used to in tiger)
    let me explain this in more detail
    back in tiger, when you were in list mode, when you press right arrow on a folder it was expanding its contents, but the next time you open that folder those folders were collapsed, whereas in leopard it remembers the folders you expanded and they stay expanded forever (or until you collapse them all again manually)
    i think its a lot more logical for them to stay collapsed next time you're opening that folder because if you have a lot of subfolders and they're all expanded when you open the folder next time its huge, the side scroller bar is tiny and its very difficult to find your stuff
    if someone has a solution for this it would be greatly appreciated
    thank you very much

    thanks for your reply
    actually CMD+A & CMD+left arrow only collapses the folders of the folder youre in, and not all the levels of subfolders that youve opened
    if i could do CMD+A & CMD+left arrow to collapse all the levels of expanded subfolders that would be fine but imagine how much time it would take to locate everything that youve expanded and collapse it manually if you have about 10 levels of subfolders?
    i find this incredibly frustrating, has anyone else got any suggestions?

  • How to make tables visible for Group Operations

    Hi:
    - SunMC Group Operations has a 'Modules Table' option which
    allows users to edit tables within a module
    - Why is it that for some modules, the tables are not visible at all, but
    for other modules, the tables are visible ?
    - Is there any documentation available which outlines how to make a module's
    table visible under SunMC Group Operations 'Modules Table' option ?
    thanks

  • Anyone know how to make folders for Word and Powerpoint?

    I've been trying to make folders for my word documents. i dont know how though!! Thanks for the help!

    Open Finder, highlight your Macintosh HD and select New Folder. Name it whatever you want. In Word there is an option to Save File in X folder. Select that new folder you created. Alternative to this is when saving a file a dialog window will open where you can select the folder to save in, select the folder you created and there should be an option to make this the Default folder to save to (but not sure about that option in the Save dialog box).

    how do you make folders in Numbers for templates and spreadsheets.

    This sounds like an iOS (iPad/iPhone) question. If so please let us know, using the "report post" can be used to have it moved to the iOS forums.
    In iOS, you use the same method as you do in the main operating system. From your spreadsheet list, Tap and hold till they wiggle, then move one on top of another.

  • How to make icon visible?

    HI !
    I´ve been making some icons with photoshop and icon composer, everything is fine except that I don´t know how to make the ready icon visible without third part application.
    At the moment icon composer leaves the icns file icon to applications own document icon.
    So:
    How to change icns files so that the icon that they contain is the icon that they display?

    I am at work (Windows) so I can't try this now, but, I've copied icon images between items by copy and paste. I wonder if you can, open the file, select and copy the icon image. Close the file, open the "Get Info" dialog, click the icon to select it (in the "Get Info" window) and paste.
    Otherwise there is a program (freeware I think) called "Pic to Icon" that makes the files icon the same as the picture it contains. I don't know if it works for .icns file though. But, if it doesn't the work around should be pretty easy.
    Good Luck!

  • How to make feedback visible to all user having read permission

    hi,

      help will be appriciated
    Regards,
    Shanthakumar.

    Hi,
    Normally we use feedback as an explanation by an approver to the previous approver about his action on the doc( reject/approve).
    I think you want ur users to view the doc and then give suggestions to make it better and these comments should be approved and then made visible.
    I replied on one such thread earlier too.
    Please have a look at this [thread|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/thread?threadID=816692]
    I hope it helps.

  • External monitor: how to make toolbar visible on both

    I have an external monitor attached to my MacBook Pro and it is currently set up as the secondary monitor. Somehow I managed to get the resolution I wanted on both screens, i.e., greater on external without mirroring. But how do I view the toolbar/dock on both. My husband has done it on his, but doesn't know how he did. On the other hand, he must sleep his laptop to get the appropriate resolution on external.
    How to make both things happen?
    Thanks, Marion

    RETRACTION My husband was confused or I was. Double toolbar only with same resolution on both screens.
    Sorry.

  • How To make Folders For Apps?

    I'm a newbie convert to the iPhone, and can't figure out if I can make Folders for my Apps. I'd like to keep similar apps together without having to search through to locate any specific app.
    Any help would be appreciated!

    To make folders, enter the app editing mode by holding your finger on any app. Little white X’s will appear above each app, and all apps will shake back and forth. Hold your finger on the app you want to add to a folder and drag the app towards another app that you want to add to the new folder. You'll then be given the option to edit the folder name. By default, iPhone gives the folder a generic name that may or may not have much to do with both apps. Click the bottom of the screen to return to apps edit mode. The new folder now appears in the list with the name you gave it, and with small icons of the apps contained in the folder. From here, you can drag more apps into the new folder. To remove apps from a folder, click the folder and simply drag the app’s icon to the main part of the screen with the other apps. When finished, hit the home button.
