Import dialog doesn't show files anymore (not even the ones on the hard drive)

I shoot pictures with a D70 (canon) and i imported them always with no problems. After a update or installation of a external program the import dialog does not show any pictures anymore. It's a black screen. The files can be read from the filebrowser and are regular cr2 files (raw files). What can I do? There are 149 files on the card and non are shown, see below

further in the forum I found this and it did the job
I would suggest you to reset Lightroom preferences and then check the same.

  • I have iMovie 09. I just erased my external hard drive, but it is still formatted for the mac. However, iMovie will not recognize the hard drive. It shows the only hard drive available is the computers. How do I get the external hard drive to show up?

    In Finder's Menu, select Go menu>Go to Folder, and go to "/volumes". (no quotes)
    Volumes is where an alias to your hard drive ("/" at boot) is placed at startup, and where all the "mount points" for auxiliary drives are created for you to access them. This folder is normally hidden from view.
    Drives with an extra 1 on the end have a side-effect of mounting a drive with the same name as the system already think exists. Try trashing the duplicates with a 1 or 2 if there are no real files in them, and reboot.
    If it does contain data...

  • I can not access the hard drive connected to my airport extreme!  Any thoughts?

    I can not access the hard drive connected to my ariport extreme.  When I use the finder to connect a server and type in the IP of the a. extreme, 10.0.1.1 it does not work and I get an error message.
    Any thoughts.
    A

    Is the hard drive formatted for Mac in Mac OS Extended (Journaled)?
    If yes, you may need to use a powered USB hub since the USB port on the AirPort Extreme is under powered and it is often necessary to use a powered hub....even if the hard drive has its own power supply
    If both items check out above.....have you checked Finder Preferences to make sure that "Connected Servers" will be displayed?
    Finder Preferences > General > Show These Items on the Desktop > Connected Servers
    Then with the Finder menus displayed at the top of the screen click the Go menu
    Click Network and the AirPort Extreme icon should be displayed
    Double click the icon to mount the drive on the desktop

  • HT1338 My macbook pro(2010) is not reading the hard drive, but the hard drive works through the USB?

    Hi everyone,
         My Macbook pro(2010) is not reading the internal Hard Drive. At first I thought it to be a hard drive gone bad, so i bought a new hard drive. My macbook is still not reading the Hard Drive. I am able to use the original hard drive through a external(USB) connection. Also, when the macbook turns, there is a redelling sound. Can anyone offer me any suggestions to what the problem might be?   

    It sounds like the internal cable connecting the HDD to the logic board is improperly connected or faulty.  An appointment at an Apple genius bar might be a good option.  The repair should not be too expensive.
    Ciao.

  • A year ago I brought a 1 TB hard drive (My Passport), I have not used it for over 4 months and now when I use the USB cord to connect it to my mac, it does not register the hard drive.  Does anyone know why this is happening?

    A year ago I brought a 1 TB hard drive (My Passport), I have not used it for over 4 months and now when I use the USB cord to connect it to my mac, it does not register the hard drive.  Does anyone know why this is happening?

    The beeps could be caused by something as simple as a loose internal wire or connection.  If it is under warranty (not sure how long that is, as WD drives range from 1 to 5 years depending on the model's series - I think "my passport" drives are 3 years) you could contact WD and ask them about it.
    If it is out of warranty, you could also try opening the case and check the connections - the drive may be fine, and there have been posts on TomsHardware forums of people getting the beeps, opening up the case and the drive is fine, just some wire worked loose.

  • IBook G4 not seeing the Hard Drive

    My iBook G4 does not see the hard drive. When the computer turns on I get the flashing smiley face in the folder. When I put the disk for the computer in then the computer starts up but cannot see the hard drive so I cannot get into anything. I even put the computer in safe mode to see if I could get it to work and I couldn't. I had a friend who works on computers look at it and he said I needed a new hard drive. So I changed out the hard drive and the computer worked fine for 3 days and then it did the same thing. I'm not sure if there's a problem with the logic board or really what is wrong with it. Please help

    This seems to suggest that your HDD may not be the problem. Try the old HDD you removed by putting it in a firewire enclosure and connect it to the computer and see if you can boot the computer from it. I experienced a similar issue with a iBook G4 which is detailed in the thread Could it be the logic board?. Your issue may be different, but the thread may give you some ideas for troubleshooting.

  • T60 hard drive replacement - Windows does not recognize the hard drive

    Hello All, new to the Lenovo Community. I have a T60 as well as newer Lenovo Edge. The HD crashed on the T60 and it will no longer boot. I just purchased a WD 500GB without doing a lot of research. In trying to install Windows 7 (I had already upgraded the T60) it will not recognize the new drive - Windows does not see the drive at all. Is there a way to get the Lenovo to recognize the WD drive? Thank you in advance for any help.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Glad I was able to help.
    Just be careful, the usual "if it doesn't fit, find a bigger hammer" doesn't apply to this model laptop.
    Also, there is a part available to adjust the frustration level, I don't happen to have the FRU number available, but I do have a photo and I'm sure you can find a local shop to provide it. Any experienced vendor should be able to match up a similar item from this photo.
    It comes in many varieties, this model has a handy extention to aid in installation so you can easily do it with one hand. Others may require two hands to safely install. Use care when installing, one slip can destroy your laptop. Acute abuse can lead to severe embarassing situations and cronic abuse can have impact on your health, so use wisely and always get a spare to share with a friend. They tend ot come conviently packaged in quantity of 6, so you can invite a few friends over.

  • Aperture 3 Import Dialog Doesn't Show Any Images

    Sometimes the import dialog just doesn't show any images. First time I encountered this I had to restart Aperture. But now even that doesn't help.
    Screenshot:
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1250153/a3.png
    Any ideas or fixes?

    Hello qua
    You don't say what your source is when your imports have been experiencing problems. Are you importing directly from a camera (or a card in a card reader)? Or are you importing images which have already been downloaded to your hard disk?
    I've just completed importing approximately 5,000 images which date back to 2001, across several hundred projects. These have, obviously, been imported from an existing disk-based archive. Every so often, I'd find what you've described - the import window with the source correctly selected, but no preview images. I never worked out a pattern for this behaviour. However, I found dealing with it +for my particular circumstances+ was as simple as pressing <escape> to cancel the import and then immediately beginning the import again. It never failed on the second time around. I never needed (for this problem) to quit and restart Aperture, let alone reboot my system.
    The problem I just described was being experienced on a fully patched 3.0.1 system. Of course, you might be experiencing something slightly different...
    Regards,
    Gary

  • My 5 year old iMac's hard drive is at the point of failing.  I'm trying to save al files on it, but it wont allow backup via Time Machine to an external hard drive.  How can I keep from losing all the files and programs if the hard drive fails?

    I'm concerned that my iMac, purchased 5 years ago, is about the crash and I can't back up my files and programs to an external hard drive via Time Machine because the computer freezes after only a couple hundred MB and gets nowhere near the required amount.
    How can I save these files and programs if the computer hard drive fails or has to be replaced without the backup being able to be done? I need to do something quickly, but I'm not sure what I can or should be doing.

    Get an external hard drive, some good ones that I like are the OWC, http://www.macsales.com Mercury Elite Pro drives...they are very good and reasonably priced.
    Get the drive, connect via USB or FireWire, then use Disk Utility to format the new drive as Mac OS X Extended (Journaled), and then use Disk Utility to Restore the current drive to the new drive.  Restore actually clones the drive so you will have a bootable backup on the external drive.
    After you have formatted and named the external drive, click Restore in the main Disk Utility window, drag the name of the old hard drive to the Source box, and drag the name of the new external drive to the Destination box.  DU will make an exact clone of the internal drive on the external drive.
    That clone will be a complete backup of the operating system and all of your data.
    You can test it by restarting the iMac and hold the Option key.  That will give you a grey screen showing all bootable drives.  Just click the external drive, then click the upward pointing arrow under it and the iMac will boot from that drive.

  • I have Lightroom 4. My external hard drive crashed and now my file is missing from the hard drive.In Lightroom, it has ? on the photos used. I've backed up the photos onto another hard drive and wanted to use it so I can work on my folder of images. Can s

    How can I use my backup external hard drive to sync into Lightroom and still work on the same photos I was working on and get rid of the ?. The photos are on a folder so I need to someone sync the folder into Lightroom. Please help!

    When I right click on an image, then went to Go to Folder in Library, it pulls up the new external hard drive where I made the new link. When I try to work on the photos, the image still says file image is offline or missing. When I right click on the image to Show in Finder, it says the image could not be used because the original file could not be found. I eventually did click on their locate and found the image. When I linked those two together, a few minutes later ALL the "?" went missing and now IT WORKS!!!!
    That was weird!
    Hope this helps someone else in my predicament.

  • Hello. I have MacBook Pro. I have 30,000 photos on iPhoto which is not on the hard drive but on an external hard drive. I have purchased a 2nd external hard drive and I would like to make a copy of my iphoto library onto it. I cant get this to work.

    I have MacBook Pro. I have my iPhoto library on external hard drive only. It has 30,000 photos on it. I have bought a 2nd external hard drive and would like to copy my iPhoto library onto it as a back up. I tried plugging both in and dragging the iPhoto library into the 2nd external harddrive. It looked as though it was working as it said 20 hours, however I then got a message box saying FiNader could not complete the task due to incompatible files. How do I do this please.

    Yes, you should format the HD.
    A Mac can natively write to a NTSF drive and that is what most drives com formatted with.
    You should use the Mac journaled format.
    Once again you are posting incorrect information
    Until we know what format the drive is it is impossible to state that it must be formatted - that is just a guess
    And a Mac can not Natively write to an NTSF drive - it can natively read it but can not write to it with special software
    And since formatting a drive erases it it is critical to tell users not to format until they have a positively known good backup
    The TOU for these forum state that you should test your answers prior to posting them  --  you obviously are not doing that and you advice is endangering users photos - please only post tested answers

  • At the urging of an Apple Store employee, I upgraded to OS Lion X.  However, Excel does not recognize the hard drive and I cannot save any work.  I understand there is a small compatibility issue - any suggestions ?

    I need some direction on fixing an issue with excel and lion x which has a compatibility issue - can't save my work to a hard drive.

    If you made a backup before installing lion, now would be a good time to restore that backup.... Ok, well you can always boot into lion recovery menu.... shut down your mac, hold down the option key and restart your computer..... Select recovery from the disk startup menu and go to disk utility... select the OSX disk, you can try repairing your permissions and repairing the disk.... If you lucky enough, it will fix it.... If not, and you have a decent internet connection, click the reinstall LION OSX after exiting disk utility. Your mac will now REDOWNLOAD LION OSX and reinstall it.... did you happen to make a backup before?
    Also, did your mac originally have Leopard? Just curious... Because LION is entirely 64bit now where as Snow leopard had support for 32 bit as well, but the problem may be that some of your older apps where 32 bit.... This is just a guess though I'm not sure.... Because I've had numerous problems and crashes with my CS 4 stuff and final cut pro 7 and aperature.... Not sure if it's totally related to the whole 64 bit thing, but the thing is that the crashes are only occuring on my 32 bit apps.... otherwise the computer runs great.... To remedy, I had previously made an OSX lion USB drive so that I could do a fresh install of LION. I backed up all my data and files, installed a new SSD and my Macbook is SCREAAAAAAMING fast.... Sorry about the gloating but I'm sure we'll get to the bottom of your problem.... 

  • Mac OS 9.x - "Mach" OS X files when I open the hard drive

    Hi, I use MacOS 9.2.2 and every time that I double-click on the Hard Disk icon the following occurs: the three (3) following items jump to the very bottom of the Hard Disk Folder: all of the three have a top right dog-eared corner, and they appear to be OS X documents:
    1) Mach,
    2) Mach.sym,
    3) Mach.sym (MacOS 9). Do I really need these three items or can I delete them?
    Angel

    Don's information is spot-on. I would just make his warning a bit more dire:
    Those files are part of Mac OS X's brain. If you move or delete them, your currently installed Mac OS X will never work again, and you will be forced to re-install Mac OS X before being able to use it again.
