How to separate RAW and JPEG files from shoot?

I'm a beginner at processing RAW files and would appreciate some help. I have concerns about moving files around in Lightroom and misplacing them. My question is:
I have imported 100 or so photos of a portrait session into Lightroom 4. Shot NEF + JPG on the card. i now have 50 pics of each file type - NEF and jpeg alternate. How best to separate file types, as a group say, in LR for best workflow post processing? I plan to work on Jpegs first and leave RAW files until later when I get some 'learning' time. Thanks.

Hi Jake.
This should be easy - make Smart collections - one with JPEG as filetype and one for RAW as inclusion criteria.
Be sure to rename the Smart collection something helpful like JPEG or RAW as the case may be.

I have uploaded raw and jpeg files directly from my camera to my iPad (latest version) I have processed them in snapseed and want now to transfer back to my pc for further processing. How can I do this will a flash drive work?

I have processed my raw and jpeg files on my iPad using Snapseed . What format are they saved in on the iPad and how do I transfer them back to my pc where I use photoshop elements. Can I use just an ordinary flaws drive with the USB adaptor? Thanks any help would be appreciated.

The camera connection kit can only be used to import photo/video files form a camera, SD card or USB flash drive. You can't import other types of files. You can't export any type of files using the camera connection kit.

Viewing both RAW and JPEG files in iPhoto

If I use the new Apple SD card reader to download image files from my camera, it is my understanding that by default it brings over both the RAW and JPEG versions of the same images to the iPad Mini (since my camera is taking both types with each image).
Will these then show up as two separate images in iPhoto? The reason I'm asking is because if I have to bring over the RAW files, I want some way of then deleting them off my iPad because they take up to much HD space.
No one I've talked to at Apple seems to know if there's a way to bring over just the JPEG files I want when using the SD card reader, which seems like a huge oversight in functionality to me.
Thanks, David.

LarryHN:
1) your suggestion will not work for the issue I'm describing: if I have both Raw and Jpeg files of the same image on my SD card, the iPad sort of lumps these together, so when I view the contents of my SD card it shows as one image/file, and if I select it and download it, it brings over both the Raw and Jpeg versions of the image, which is what I am trying to avoid and why I started the tread in the first place.
2) I spoke with sales people at two Apple stores and one person with their online sale, and none of them could addrss my issue. The online sales person said she might have to put me through to their tech people to resolve this or at least get the full, correct info. None of them were janitors.
I did find a workaround which I think will work:
Download the files over to my iPad, then use an app like Photo Manager Pro to be able to view the files by type, then select the Raw files and delete them from my iPad. This will work I hope, but seems like a lot of extra work for a device that's supposed to be user friendly--I think Apple missed the boat on this one, opting for making things 'simple' instead of functional for photographers.

Viewing both RAW and JPEG files in iPhoto (or somehow on a Mini)

I'll be traveling later this year and I'm looking to get a tablet so I can view and do some light editing of my images while I'm on the road.
If I use the new Apple SD card reader to download image files from my camera to the iPod Minin, it is my understanding that by default it brings over both the RAW and JPEG versions of the same images (my camera is taking both types with each image).
Will these then show up as two separate images in iPhoto? The reason I'm asking is because if I have to bring over the RAW files, I want some way of then deleting them off my iPad because they take up to much HD space.

Leonie, you have pretty much confirmed what I found out as well.
When using the Apple SD card reader there is no way to only import JPEG files when there are corresponding RAW files on the card. The iOS or photo import app treats them as one image and imports both files together, regardless of the fact that most apps will not read or edit the RAW files and also that they take up a huge amount of space.
I've only found one way of getting rid of the Raw files, but still 'keeping' the Jpegs: import them all to the iPad, then edit the images in an app like Snapseed, then do a 'save as' (which Snapseed does by default) so you've created new Jpeg files; you can then go back and delete the originals.
That seems like a whole lot of work to get around the iPad's lack of functionality, and because of this I'm looking at an Asus Nexus 7 tablet instead. Besides all this, the Nexus allows me to copy files back to a flash drive or memory card, adding to it's usefulness.
I think this is a huge design flaw on Apple's part. It's one they could easily fix by giving you a choice to only importing the Jpeg files, or just Raw or both. Not a big deal really.
I sort of grok the 'paradigm' behind it, which is to have people work with data, images, or projects, and not files. But in this case, it is not serving people, especially more serious photographers. It makes me suspect if the developers even asked photographers what they would need from the iPad--sort of placing it back in the toybox, as opposed to being a real tool for photographers.
Regards, David.

Why is Lightroom5 copying both RAW and Jpeg files into the destination folder ?

Hi all Lightroom experts,
I want to copy the RAW files from my SD csrd to my Drobo harddisk. And everytime I did that, Lightroom copied BOTH the raw & jpeg files
How do I instruct Lightroom to copy only the RAW files ?
Just to disgress a bit, in fact the same problem happens in Adobe Bridge despite me selecting only the RAW files to be copied but it always copied both !!
Any tips ?
Thanks

You can tell Lightroom to treat JPGs next to RAW as separate photos, or treat the JPG as a sidecar file using the instructions here:
Lightroom Help | Set import preferences
If the JPG is a sidecar file, the JPG is still imported but doesn't show in your Library module.
If you really don't want to import the JPGs, you'd have to select the RAWs but not the JPGs in the Import dialog box; or import them all and then delete the JPGs from Lightroom and your hard disk (easier, but takes a little longer); or don't shoot RAW+JPG
Thanks dj_paige and F.MacLion for the solution.
Can I check, if i tick the the check-box and ask LR5 to treat the jpeg as a separate file, FR5 won't import the jpeg files (which is what I wanted) but will LR5 still generate a sidecar file for each of my RAW files ? (I hope it does)
Thanks

How to import RAW and JPEG, but see only one image?

This is driving me crazy.
I shoot sometimes RAW and sometimes JPEG on the same memory card. So some pictures have only a JPEG file, others (the ones I shot in RAW) have a RAW+JPEG pair (or at least, Aperture sees it that way when displaying the content of the memory card).
What I want:
- import only once
- for JPEG files, JPEG is imported as master
- for RAW files, RAW only is imported as master
There seems to be no combination of the import settings that lets me do this?!?!?!?
If, under the "RAW+JPEG Pairs" settings I select "RAW files only", all JPEG files DISAPPEAR from the import list. WHY? This setting should be for "RAW+JPEG Pairs" only, it should not affect images that only have a JPEG file. I want to import JPEG files as well, so I select "Both (RAW as master)". Now, in the imported project there are TWO images to deal with, which is not what I want.
Even if I were to import twice, how can I exclude the duplicates?

Please ignore my post. Aperture behaves correctly. I got confused because many pics look alike, but aren't really the same pic. Sorry for the confusion.

Importing Raw and Jpeg file formats to Mac Pro

Since migrating to Photos from iPhotos when importing photos only Jpegs seem to get imported, not Raw files when shot in both formats on my NikonD5300. Does anyone know how i can import the two file formats simultaneously? (I have double checked the settings on my camera!)
Thanks Louise

Photos will import both the RAW and the JPEG, but stack them and use only one of them as the original file.
You will see badge overlays "J" or "R", indicating if the RAW or the JPEG is currently uses as the original file to render edits.
Open the photo in "EDIT" mode, then you will be able to switch to the "RAW" version as the original file, in the "Image" menu. The options "Use RAW as original" or "Use JPEG as original" are only available in Edit mode, also "Reprocess RAW"

How to disassociate RAW and JPEG

I've RAW & JPEG files of same picture. If I move RAW to a different folder in Bridge JPEG file moves too. How to stop it?

IrinaG,
My test shows the same pattern. If you want them to move seperatly make name of jpg and raw different. I even nuked the XMP file but that did not make any difference.

How do I extract and save files from an .iso download?

I need to extract and burn to CD files from an .iso download. Has anyone used 3rd party software to do this successfully?

I was able to burn files to CD by double-clicking the .iso download folder in Finder, selecting all, then "burn X items to disc...". (There was a problem with the first .iso file I tried, but after I downloaded again all went well). No 3rd party software was needed).
