Images wont import

images will not import. says error on all photos. help

Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
The link above will provide info on when various camera models were added by Adobe in Lightroom and Adobe camera Raw.
Support for processing raw files from the Canon 70D was introduced in Lightroom 5.2, ACR 8.2.
So if you wish to import raw files from this camera model you will have to upgrade to LR 5. (you can upgrade direct to version 5 and skip 3 &4 provided your computer meets the minimum requirements.)
The other alternative would be to use the free Adobe DNG Converter (the latest is version 8.7.1) to convert the raw files to the DNG format. Then you will be able to import the dng files into Lightroom 2.7.
That said version 2.7 is now very dated and there have been two upgrades to the Lightroom processing engine that will provide superior results with your files from your camera model.

Is there any way to get the height/width of an image before importing it in the indesign document.

Hi All,
I need to obtain an image's attributes such as dimensions (height, width in pixels) without placing image in indesign document.
I have full path of the image (say abc.jpg is stored at c:\my pic\abc.jpg).
I have obtained the IDFile for this image, tried getting size using GetFileSize() which correctly return size in bytes.
Is there any way to get the height/width of image without importing it in the indesign document.
Please, give me some hints. I have spent quite a lot time digging in CHM. I have searched in FileUtils, IDFile API's but found no method which serves this purpose.
At this point I am clueless where to search next.
Any help will be appriciated.
Just a point to mention, I am able to get image height and width for an image in indesign doc though Its not my requirement.
Thnx,
D.

You might be able to examine the contents of the PlaceGun after calling kImportAndLoadPlaceGunCmdBoss without actually placing the image in a document. Not sure, but would be worth looking at.
Otherwise you will probably have to write platform specific code, ideally with a generic platform-independant wrapper (see SDKSamples/paneltreeview/PlatformFileSystemIterator).
For the Mac, look at CGImageGetWidth() etc., not sure what the best option is for windows.
Perhaps Quicktime could provide you with a platform independant solution.

I just installed iTunes on my computer, where I already have all my music. I went to Edit Preferences Advanced, and changed the iTunes Media Folder Location to where I have all my music, in the "Local Disk." But iTunes wont import all my music. Help?

Have you looked in the Music App on your iPhone? On the iPhone music is played by the Music App not iTunes.

My lap top wont import pictures from auto play. it keeps saying there is a file error and a device connected to the computer isnt working properly. i have tried going into the internal storage to copy and paste the pictures but this wont work either.

my pictures from my i phone 4s wont import from auto play. a message keeps coming up saying there is an error and a device is not working properly. also i have tried going into the internal storage to copy and paste them but that wont work either. the page either stops responding or the picture simply dont copy. does any1 have any idea why this is happening. it has never happened before and only seems to be happening since i started using i cloud storage instead of synching my phone with the lap top.

I have decided to dedicate this thread to the wonderful errors of Lion OSX. Each time I find a huge problem with Lion I will make note of it here.
Today I discovered a new treasure of doggie poop in Lion. No Save As......
I repeat. No Save As. In text editor I couldn't save the file with a new extension. I finally accomplished this oh so majorly difficult task (because we all know how difficult it should be to save a file with a new extension) by pressing duplicate and then saving a copy of the file with a new extension. Yet then I had to delete the first copy and send it to trash. And of course then I have to secure empty trash because if I have to do this the rest of my mac's life I will be taking up a quarter of percentage of space with duplicate files. So this is the real reason they got rid of Save As: so that it would garble up some extra GB on the ole hard disk.
So about 20 minutes of my time were wasted while doing my homework and studying for an exam because I had to look up "how to save a file with a new extension in mac Lion" and then wasted time sitting here and ranting on this forum until someone over at Apple wakes up from their OSX-coma.
are you freaking kidding me Apple? I mean REALLY?!!!! who the heck designed this?!!! I want to know. I want his or her name and I want to sit down with them and have a long chat. and then I'd probably splash cold water on their face to wake them up.
I am starting to believe that Apple is Satan.

ITunes wont import!

my itunes 8.1.1 is having major problems, it wont import any music files, Quicktime 7.6 opens them fine but not itunes, no error message or anything, it shows the normal green "+" sign when i drag the song over the itunes window but when i let go it does nothing, ive tried mp3s aiffs and wav files, it wont import music i purchase from the itunes store either, it gives an error stating:
"There was a problem downloading "song name", an unknown error occurred (-50)"
i tried using pacifist to go back to v 8.0.2 but it says it cant use the music library files because they were created by a newer version of itunes, i re-installed 8.1.1 install was successful, but still wont import anything.
i tried repairing permissions on my HD but still no luck, what do i do?
-Jon D

I had this problem with iTunes 8.2. It refused to import any .MP3 or .AIFF files either by dropping the file on to the iTunes icon or by using "Add to Library". No error messages, just did not import the file. OTher media players played the files just fine.
I've just solved my import problem, but I don't know if my solution is a general one.
When I looked at Preferences / Advanced, the iTunes Music folder location was showing as blank, (though despite this iTunes was using my library OK, it was just import that was not working). Simply trying to change the location using iTunes Preferences / Advanced had no effect on the import problem.
I use an external drive for my iTunes library, with the music folder location set using an alias on the internal hard drive pointing at the library on the external drive. The alias was pointing at the correct place, but for some reason the alias was not appearing in the iTunes Preferences / Advanced / iTunes Music folder location window.
My solution was as follows:
- I re-selected the original that the alias was pointing at using "Select New Original" in the File / Get Info window.
- I then "reset" the location of iTunes music folder in iTunes to the same old alias file I'd been using all along.
This seems to have solved the problem. Files import fine now.
Hope this helps somebody, it was a real pain not being able to import anything.

IPhoto darkens images when importing

I've just been importing some photos into iPhoto 6 and I've noticed that quite a few pictures have been noticeably darkened, and I have no idea why! I checked in the folder and the darker photo does not appear in the folder of 'Modified' photos, but in the 'Originals' folder.
If I open up the same image from my desktop in Preview and comare it side-by-side with the same image I imported into iPhoto I can immediately see the difference. The problem is really a darkening in areas of shadown.
Is iPhoto somehow thinking it is 'enhancing' my photos, but this just doesn't work on some photos or what? I just want the imported image to look identical to what I see when opening the file with Preview on the very same computer. That's not really asking too much.

I've figured out my own problem. iPhoto was set up to assign photos with a ColorSync profile and this profile made the photo look darker.

Rotate images DURING import

To be able to rotate images DURING import would be a nice feature. I can do this with Apple's Image Capture. They are imported wih the rotation I have requested, and this show in the icons too.
I like popping a folder open and view my images in icon view. I don't have to open a program at all. It's quick and efficent way to view my images, but also the orientation is correct right from the beginning with the original. Maybe one more step in the import process, for those of us who don't mind it, BUT it's also one more step I DON"T have to do in Lightroom, Photoshop, or any other program. And the rotataion in Lightroom are temporary to the eye anyway.
This is good feature/option to add to the import. Lightroom ROCKS. It just elimanted a multi-step, multi-software import process. Almost. The "rotate during import" feature would seal the deal. It's a big deal to me. Like the Apple Image Capture, you could place rotation icons on each image in the preview window. If you added that, man, solid gold!
thanks,
Craig

DW Harrison:
Sure, I get that, but I can understand how non-destructive editing is useful in image adjustments where later you may regret having added too much saturation in the reds, so you're glad you can go back to the original. But who wants a portrait image rotated in landscape orientation EVER? It's a personal preference, and, no, not a priority in my opinion.
Ian:
You may think your post was enlightening, but, perhaps to someone else. Surely not me. I've always known what the 'real cause' is -- some software, i.e. WEB BROWSWERS, ignore the EXIF tag. Hence, my question was more of a philosophical one: why have portrait images rotated sideways, only to have aware applications ON-THE-FLY rotate them according to the EXIF tag? Why not just have the original file re-written in different dimensions?
For that matter, I specifically spelled out 'why can't... [the file be] rewritten from 800x600 to 600x800'. Hence I find your response 'They will be if the rotation tag is set in the camera' pretty darn irrelevant. No, they WON'T be rewritten rotated. Only by Graphic Converter if you have the option selected, or other applications that don't come to mind right now.

No images to import

Help. I just returned from a big trip with loads of pictures and when I connected my camera one SanDisk worked great but when I put the other in iPhoto says "no images to import". I can see the images on my camera, though? Any ideas?

Hi there,
I would try it again, remove and reinsert the suspect card. If it still does not work, if I had another computer I would try that one. If that doesn't work, but you can still see the images through your camera. I would bring the camera and card to the nearest reputable photo lab and have them try to copy images onto a CD... also, make sure batteries are fresh.

Settings added when when images are imported

When I import images into Lightroom3 the images have already been tweaked. How do I turn off the setting as the images are imported? Second, when I attempt to send images to Photoshop for editing Lightroom makes a copy, how can I stop this fom happening?

Two things to avoid that LR applies "tweaking" on import.
1) Make sure that the <Apply Auto-tone adjustments> box is unchecked. You find it under <Preferences> in the <Presets tab>.
2) In the Import Dialog on the right hand side, in the panel <Apply During Import>, make sure that <Develop Settings> shows <None>.
There is no way to avoid making a copy when you open a RAW-file in PS. PS can not save a file as a true RAW-file; there is a Photoshop-RAW but that is not a true RAW-file like the one that your camera creates.Since PS can save your edits only in a different format than true RAW, by necessity a copy has to be made.
If you have JPG's in LR (or TIFFs or PSD's) and want to edit them in PS, you can choose <Open Original> and then no copy is made. But when you open these as <Edit a Copy with LR Adjustments> then again a copy is made.

How can I re-name a single image after importing it to Aperture?

I am having a problem renaming a single image after importing it - I would have thought it would be simple! Does anyone know how this can be done?

Hi RQ,
Straight out of the manual
To rename masters
In the Browser, select an image or group of images.
Choose Metadata > Batch Change (or press Command-Shift-B).
In the Batch Change dialog, choose a naming convention from the Version Name Format pop-up menu to specify how you want the masters named.For example, choose Version Name from the Version Name Format pop-up menu to have your master filenames changed to match the names of the corresponding versions in Aperture. If you choose a custom name format, enter the name you want in the Custom Name text field. For more information about naming files, see Automatically Naming Your Imported Images.
Select the Apply to Master File(s) checkbox, then click OK.
The master files corresponding to the selected images are renamed. For more information about working with the Batch Change dialog, see Batch Changing Metadata.
Hope that is what you are after.

Partial rotation of images when importing...

I'm wondering how to stop Lightroom from "squaring up" my images when I import them. Attached is a screen shot to illustrate.
I also can't find any consistentency, if I import the same image three times it will be as above twice but not on the third time!
I'm wondering if this is a metadata thing?
BTW camera is a Nikon D600.
With thanks in advance,

If this is only happening to a few of the images on import it is most likely something related to your camera. If ALL of the Imported images exhibit the issue then there are two things in LR that could cause this to happen:
1) You are applying a Develop preset on Import that has Lens Corrections> Manual> Rotate tool setting other than '0.'
2) Your LR 'Default Develop Settings' has a Crop Angle tool or Lens Corrections> Manual> Rotate tool setting other than '0.'
To check this import one of the images from CF card that shows the rotation. Examine the Crop Angle tool and Lens Corrections> Manual> Rotate tool settings to determine which one is being applied. From inside the Develop module with the imported image still rotated hit the master 'Reset' button at the bottom of the right-hand Develop panel. This applies your LR 'Default Develop Settings.'
a) If the image is still rotated you may have inadvertently updated your LR 'Default Develop Settings' in the past with the image rotated. To correct this simply hit the master 'Reset' button, reset both the Crop Angle tool and Manual Rotate tools to '0,' go to toolbar Develop> Set Default settings, and select 'Update to Current Settings.'
b) If the image is not rotated you are probably applying a Develop preset that was inadvertently created with the image rotated. You will need to recreate this preset making sure Lens Corrections> 'Transform' is unchecked. This is the only Develop preset setting that will rotate the image as in your example.
If neither a or b fixes the issue you can try resetting your LR Preferences file:

Iphoto is blacking out vertical images when importing. how do i fix this?

iphoto is blacking out vertical images when importing. how do i fix this?

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on eight different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.

Exposure Importing Problems __ Darker images after Import

Shooting on 5D Mark II.. Shoot RAW and JPEG.. Running Mac with lastest OS
Getting proper exposures in Camera.. Importing to LightRoom using card reader.
Having major problems once I import into Lightroom. My images are significantly Darker.. 3 stops or so. I have triple checked that I am not applying any presets to my images upon import. Cannot figure this out!!
Please help with this issue...

Several Things that I'm also curious about... Why does the tone curve - point curve default to Medium Contrast???? Also , in the basic develop settings, what are the two icons Tone and Auto... Notice how the Auto is highlighted..
Medium Contrast is just the default for all Raw images in LR
Auto is highlighted because you can activate AutoToning by clicking it
A couple of questions again, which might have been asked before:
If you import the .cr2 and the JPEG from your camera, do both have the same dark look?
Have you tried recalibrating your monitor?
Can you upload a JPEG and a Raw sample file to somewhere (i.e. www.yousendit.com) and post a screenshot to them here (don't use a photo publishing site please)

IPhoto suddenly wont import photos from my iPhone

iPhoto suddenly wont import photos from my iPhone.
Keeps sending me error messages... wrong format.
anyone know about this?

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on seven different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?

With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. More information means you get better assistance. (And no, more exclamation marks do not get help faster or make your issue seem urgent. They just make it seem like you have a stuck key )
