I need to change what LR does with my files when importing.

I have no idea when the import "Preferences" changed.  
When I import DNGs, it COPIES them to another HDD and I cannot find out how to stop this.
When I go to Preferences I do not see any way to change this.
I am about ready to uninstall and reinstall ...
Driving me crazy...
Dell Studio 1745  Win 7 64
Lr 3.6  64 bit
Thanks

Uninstall/reinstall is not the way to fix this.
You didn't tell us the desired behavior, and if we don't know that, we can't help you get there.

  • What iCloud does with my files??

    On settings it says if I want to storage my files of anothers apps, Garageband for example. But, Where are they???? This really **cks.

    Thanks for your quickly response!
    This is  what I follow:
    Settings/iCloud/Storage & Backup/Manage Storage/MyIphone/
    and it says: "Choose the data you want to backup", Garageband, iBooks, iMovie and a couple more are there. Why and what happend with those files? It is just a backup but with no acces? I think that is.
    Thanks.

  • Missing Audio / Sound in imovie with .AVI files when imported from iphoto

    fortunately i don't need this answered, eventually figured it out my self, just thought it would be helpful to share the solution to this problem as I'm sure others have experienced it. The problem makes more sense when explained chronologically.
    My wife has a Casio digital camera, and had recorded many Movies on it, they all sat in iPhoto all worked fine until i upgraded to Quicktime 7.5, then the audio disappeared. i tried in vain to fix (reinstalled QT 7.5, removed plugins, reinstalled etc.), but to no avail, so i left it - this was all under Tiger, i decided I'd upgrade to Leopard and see if the problem went away.
    Before upgrading to Leopard i got iLife 08, when i first launched iMovie08 it pulled in all the movies from iPhoto, but they too had no sound.
    Then i upgraded to Leopard, now the quicktime missing audio issue got fixed, so i could hear the audio again when launching quicktime via iPhoto (turns out the issue was with how quicktime was handling adaptive PCM audio stream) - i expected all would be fine in iMovie... but it wasnt.
    after much experimentation i realised that i had to force iMovie to re-import all the video from iPhoto, this fixed the issue, but with no obvious way to do this, this is what i did:
    - opened finder, navigated to iphoto library, right click and chose 'show package contents'
    - navigated to the data folder and did a search on this folder only for all movie files (when imovie had originally converted iPhoto movie files into thumbnails it dropped all the thumb size movie files in this folder)
    - deleted all the movie files from the Data folder, making sure not to delete the movie files in any other folders & emptied trash
    - launched imovie, now all the iphoto movies were missing.
    - re-launch iPhoto, whilst holding down shift, option + command keys
    - checked 'rebuild the iphoto library database' only, once done, closed iphoto
    - re-launched imovie, this forced it to re-import all the movies from iphoto
    ... and then the sound was back.
    FYI
    this worked when using...
    OS 10.5.4
    QT 7.5
    iMovie 7.1.4
    iPhoto 7.1.4

    Hi MGW,
    I do not no how things are handled when using HDV and technical documentation is hard to find on this topic of how photo are handled using HDV but in iMovie and most non HDV video editing software the picture is always 72ppi regardless of what is was/is on the outside and the images that appear the worst are the ones with less.
    On a side note I don't use iPhoto because of all the superfluous files and thumbnails it creates and it disorganises my photos according to criteria that is completely irrelevant to me. I have had these thumbnails pop up in the browser in the past primarily with any photos that existed in the library prior to any updates. With what I have been working on as of late can understand how and why this could happen.
    If you scroll through the media browser dose it appear that the library you are working with duplicates itself somewhere along the line or do you see double images side by side?
    What are you machine specs and please include you screen/display size and graphics card information as this is the most relevant information at this point with what you are doing.

  • Choosing what Firefox does with a file

    Whenever I want to download a file, a box opens with the choices of opening or saving the file. The option for 'Do this automatically for files like this from now on' is greyed and I can't choose that. How can I make that option available? Apparently it was changed at one time but I don't want that choice any longer.
    Thanks.

    Press the Command key, click on it, and drag it out of the toolbar, or control-click it and choose to remove it.

  • Trouble with audio files when imported from audio window

    after "bouncing" and audio region and importing it (onto a new track) into the arrange window from the audio window, I can't seem to control any parameters like volume and pan for the imported clip. Is this somehow locked?

    sure....say I record a clip in track one with a bunch of plugins....export the clip to the audio region...then import back to the arrange...
    First of all it won't let me play the clip in Track 2, but if I shift the clip to track 3 it'll play....BUT I can't control the volume or pan .....very strange. I hate freezing stuff...although I have been for ages....but if this works it'll be cool....
    Thanks...

  • What setting do I need to change to have a search result file (pdf. or whatever) open instead of automatically download?

    Firefox downloads files automatically when opening a opening a search result. What setting do I need to change to have the search result file (pdf. or whatever) open instead? Something changed yesterday and I lost the ability to open the files vs. download.

    Hello,
    Normally, when I use my online account, when i select a document to open with excel or with adobe, the applicaiton installed on the PC, is used to open the files.
    Can you check the under control panel, default programs, and see what program  is associated to the PDF files?
    When you try to open one of those pdf files from your back, what happens?
    If you download them to the HDD, are they automatically associated to ADOBE?
    Thanks,
    I work for HP! Please remember to provide and if this helped click ON

  • I need to change a photo into a video file in order to post on youtube. How can I do this with my mac?

    I need to change a photo into a video file in order to post in youtube. How can I do this with my mac mini?

    When I go to import, the choices are :
    movies
    camera archive
    imovie for IOS
    imovie for HD
    It refuses to import a photo with any of these choices, which is located on the desktop or in a folder. It's a regular .jpg
    There are instructions to drag it. I put it there, and it bounces right back. The photo will not stay.
    I just need this one picture to go on so I can post a meditation on youtube.  It doesn't come from a camera.

  • TS1372 does anybody know what is wrong with the ipod when error 1437 is reported during the restore mode?

    does anybody know what is wrong with the ipod when error 1437 is reportedduring the restore cycle?

    Double check the connections on each end to make sure they are nice and snug. If possible, plug the Nano into another existing USB 2.0 port. 
    Also, with the iPod still connected, try resetting it. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons (or the Volume Down and Sleep/Wake buttons on the 6G Nano) long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    Then try restoring the iPod again.

  • When logging on to Hotmail, a window opens asking me "What to do with this file" for "default.aspx"

    This morning, I am unable to log in to Hotmail. The homepage appears normally, but after I enter my email address and password and click to submit them, a window pops us asking me what to do with the file "default.aspx." I have a Vista machine, and last night my computer automatically installed a ton of Microsoft updates. In fact, the update list shows that one of the updates failed to install. At the end of this message, I have pasted the details of the failed update. I have checked the Hotmail support forum, and someone else posted that the have experienced the same problem this morning. The Microsoft "expert" asked him or her to contact Mozilla for support for this issue. Thanks in advance for whatever help you can provide, although I highly suspect that this is a problem on the Microsoft/Hotmail end, not yours.
    Here is the info on the failed software update from last night...

    Hotmail is rolling out a server change at their end which might be causing this problem. Mozilla has spoken to them about it and they are trying to fix it. I won't be able to provide you a time estimate by when it will be solved but hotmail/mozilla is certainly looking at this issue.
    I will let you know if get any updates!

  • I want to change my iCloud account. Buying iPad we gave a virtual (forwarding) email addr. We need to change to a real address. But when we try to change the iCloud account, we can only change the password. Note: we don't have Mac, only iPad and Windows.

    I want to change my iCloud account. Buying iPad we gave a virtual (forwarding) email address.
    We need to change to a real address.
    But when we try to change the iCloud account, we can only change the password.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple,  Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.
