I'm having issues importing raw files into LR 2.6.

Hi All.
So here's the issue. I have about 1300 images that I'd like to import into LR from my USB Exteral Hard Drive. In the past, I had no issues. but with this one, it seems that I'm limited. I tired to import all 1300 and nothing would happen when i hit import. So then I started to import half of that and it worked.. So I backed out and added in about 10 more.. worked fine, backed out and imported 10 more and it wouldn't work.
I have enough HD space, at least 30Gbs free. The folder size of the images is 11gbs. Is there a setting that limits the amount that I can upload?
Thanks soo much!

Thanks Hal for getting back to me..
Yes, that's what I did..
So I tried two things.. a different set of about 2k images.. raw files.. and it wouldn't work. So that ruled out a corrupt file in my current set.
I went back to the current batch where I was able to import file 1-1060 with no issues. I then chose files 1061-1300 and that worked fine. So that ruled out a corrupt file from 1-1300.
Is is possible to do Two separate import jobs so that i will be able to see all of them when I go to post process? I have never had to do two sep import jobs before so not sure if this is an option.
Thank you very much

Problems importing raw files into Lightroom 3.4

I've just dowloaded lightroom 3.4 and now I'm having problems importing raw files into lightroom. I havent had a problem before. Can anyone help me? My camera is a Nikon D7000.

Perhaps a few more details are required. Take a look at the FAQ "How to get help quickly"

Is there a way to import Raw files into LR catalog ..including..any edits performed in an external raw file editor such as Capture One?

Is there a way to import Raw files into LR catalog ..including..any edits performed in an external raw file editor such as Capture One?
I can import the Raw file successfully but cannot see any edits that were applied in Capture One. Im assuming no but just checking.

Your assumption is correct, Capture One, Lightroom and other third party raw processors have their own proprietary processes and profiles for rendering the raw data.
They do not make permanent changes to the raw data and store the changes to an .xmp file or to a catalog file like Lightroom.

I can't import raw files into lightroom

I have been using lightroom 4. I shoot with a nikon d300s. I recently used a nikon D610 and now it says preview not available. It also says the the raw images aren't able to import. So I recently upgraded to Lightroom 5 and it still says preview not available. I need some suggestions on how to import them.

I don't use nikon software. I just use lightroom. I just got lightroom 5. I tried to update to 5.3 but couldn't find the location where to find it.

Can't import RAW files into iPhoto 6 Library from Nikon D700

For whatever reason I am unable to import RAW files from my Nikon D700 into my iPhoto 6 (version 6.0.6) Library. I can import JPEGs from the D700, but it's no-go with the RAW files. When I attempt to import the RAW files I get the following message:
"Unreadable Files
The following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognized file type or the files may not contain valid data)."
Can anybody solve this mystery for me?

I presume that the economically-priced Mac Box Set containing OS X 10.5.6 Leopard, iLife '09, and iWork '09 would be the way to go. Do you concur?
Well that's the cheapest way to do it. You could, of course, buy a new Mac
Do you feel that my 20" Intel iMac--details listed below--would have any problems handling the upgraded programs?
It will have no problems with the updated OS or applications.
'm uneasy at the thought of upgrading my operating system, but I presume that chances of running into problems are much less than if I were upgrading a Windows OS. In case a problem arises my entire hard drive is backed up with a 1T external hard drive using SuperDuper software, but I prefer not to encounter a situation requiring me to use it for restoration purposes.
The key to any update or upgrade is to make sure that you have a good working back up. That way, should anything go wrong, you have a quick way back to where you started.
My tips for upgrading the OS? Disconnect the disk with the back up and all other peripherals when you do the Upgrade. Pop the disk in. Do a standard Upgrade. (There are some folks who swear that you should wipe your HD and start over from scratch before you do, but, frankly, that's overkill. I've been upgrading Macs since 1992 and never had a problem.

Importing RAW files into Photoshop CC

Since I've updated my Photoshop CC to version 14 I've one problem.
After I did import my files into Adobe RAW and after I finetuned in Adobe RAW I want to improve my details into Photoshop CC.
BUT: after I have ordered Adobe RAW tot opent he files into PS nothing hasppens, PS does not react.
I only can save the file to e.g. TIFF or DNG files and after that I can open the files in Photoshop.
That's awefull!
Any solution??
with kind regards
Plomp G.W.

PS CC 2014 is the current version. PS CC 14.2.1 is the previous version.
What OS are you running: Windows 8.1, Mavericks 10.9.3 or something else?
The general advice would be to uninstall and reinstall Photoshop.

How do I not import RAW files into iPhoto

I shoot RAW + Jpeg with my cameras... Up until a recent upgrade to Mavericks... I would put the SD card in the iMac and it would import all the JPEGs, and then say something like 75 files could not be downloaded.
Those were the large RAW files and I would then just move them to an External Hard-drive and use Lightroom and Canon's DPP to edit them.
After the OS upgrade the RAW and JPEGs now both import into iPhoto and onto the Mac Hard-drive.
I can't seem to find a way to not import the RAW file into iPhoto. Is there something I am missing? I do not want those large RAW files wasting space on the mac, and I have notice iPhoto is really slow since the upgrade.
Thanks for any help

A. To move an iPhoto Library:
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
B. iPhoto and Raw
1. The Raw processing engine in iPhoto the same one used in Aperture, but with less fine control. (Think of the differences between Word and TextEdit, iMovie and Final Cut).
2. Processing Raw in a 3rd Party Application
You can also process your Raw with a 3rd Party app like ACR or Photoshop. But iPhoto does not handle this gracefully and it's a bit of a kludge.
First off set your preferred app as an external editor in iPhoto:
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
Note that iPhoto sends a copy+ of the file to Photoshop, so when you save be sure to use the Save command, not Save As... If you use Save As then you're creating a new file and iPhoto has no way of knowing about this new file. iPhoto is preserving your original anyway.
Next: In the iPhoto Preferences -> Advanced, elect to use Raw with your External editor:
Now when you go to edit the Raw it will be sent to your external editor.
Now for the kludge:
You cannot save a Raw. The work you do must be output to a new file, in a new format (jepg, tiff, whatever). However, as the External Editor is making this new file iPhoto has no knowledge of its existence. Therefore you must save it to the desktop and then import it back to iPhoto as a new file.
This means that you will have your Original Raw and the processed version in iPhoto but they will not be recognised as version and original. iPhoto will see them as two separate shots.
Further - and this is quite a consideration: Lightroom is not an editor. Like iPhoto it's a database app and images need to be imported, processed and exported from it. It occupies the same place in the workflow (manager/non-destructive processing) as iPhoto does so in makes zero sense to use both...

Import Raw files into iphoto

I'm having the same problem importing raw .nef files with a Coolpix5400, which is listed as acceptable for raw import into iphoto. There are several work arounds which seem to work for system 10.4.8 and iphoto 6.0.5. However, my experience is they don't work for systems 10.4.9 or 10.4.10 with iphoto 6.0.6.
If there is no other way, I guess I could reinstall 10.4.8 and iphoto 6.0.5, get raw to work, and then go back to system 10.4.10 and iphoto 6.0.6.
Has anyone had experience with raw files in iphoto 6.0.6 and system 10.4.10?
I know the original question was listed as answered. For some reason I could not enter a new question so I tried this way as a last resort.
Thanks.

Issue importing flat files into SQL server 2008R2

I have csv files that the last column may not have data. SSIS (version 2008R2) will insert the next row's data into the empty cells, which causes my package to fail.
I know this is resolved in 2012 but we are using 2008R2 still. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Hi sqlBI2014,
After testing the issue that Flat File Connection Manager cannot handle file with uneven number of columns in each row in my SQL Server 2008 R2 environment, I can reproduce it.
Based on my research, the issue is caused by the Column Delimiter gets first preference and then Row delimiter. So the next row data would be inserted in the empty column cell. This is by design in SQL Server 2005, SQL Server 2008 or SQL Server 2008 R2.
Good news is that the issue is fixed in SQL Server Data Tools which comes with SQL Server 2012. In SQL Server 2012, by default, the Flat File Connection Manager always checks for a row delimiter in unquoted data, and starts a new row when a row delimiter
is found. This enables the connection manager to correctly parse files with rows that are missing column fields.
If you still want to fix the issue in SQL Server 2008 R2, there is a sample component posted to the CodePlex that might help you with this:

I have a new camera and cannot import RAW files into lightroom.

I have a new Sony NEX 5 and have tried importing the ARW files into lightroom. The files are recognized when I import photos from device. When I choose the .arw files to import, I receive an message "unknown errors occurred" and files won't import. I have never had a problem importing files from a card or directly from my older camera. Any suggestions?

Check here to see if your camera is supported yet.
If its a camera launched in the last month it won't be. But you can try LR 3.2 RC and see if it has been added. Otherwise you will have to wait until LR supports the format. This is a problem caused by manufacturers constantly using their own formats which require Adobe to investigate every new format before adding it to LR. In 99.99% of the cases the so called new format from the manufacturers is just a line of code with the name of the camera in it. You can use a EXIF editor tool (just google, lots of free ones) to change the name in the RAW file to one presently supported and then convert to DNG. If you do go down this road then ensure you also keep a copy of the original files just in case something has actually changed.
If you are still using LR 2.7 and the format you need was introduced with LR 3 you don't need to upgrade, you can just use Adobes standalone converter to convert the files to DNG and then import them.

Importing RAW files into iPhoto'08

I'm trying to import photo's taken in a RAW format from my Canon 550d into iPhoto'08 and all the time after trying to move the photo into an album I get an error message saying 'unable to import unreadable file'.
could this be due to a software update needed for iPhoto'08 for the 550d which I have yet to install?
I have noticed on occasion, a software update would come up to support other camera's when using RAW files.

since I've downloaded the trial version of Aperture 3 I have noticed I can now import and work on RAW images taken off my 550d in iPhoto '08.
so it seems thats a way to get it to work. although now that I'm using Aperture 3 (just the trial version for now), I do not want to go back to using iPhoto '08! lol, its a cruel world...

I'm having issues importing raw files into LR 2.6.
