Import from SD card on X-fi imports all files, but doesn't let me see them.
The Import feature has been very handy this Christmas. I was able to take my wife's sisters SD card and make a copy onto my Zen X-Fi and later copy the photos onto my computer.
What was odd was that when I was exploring the device, I noticed another folder full of music and videos from when I tried to import them from a SD card.
The Import All option seems to copy everything from the SD card, but will only let you look at the pictures that were imported.
This seems like a really odd behavior to have the import all function just use up the storage space and not let the user play the imported videos or mp3 files.
Download and install VLC. http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html and get rid of DivX.

I have installed elements 1`3 from a disc and cannot expand a version set. Help?
This is PSE 13? If so, it's not a bug, it's a feature. The new adaptive grid view in the organizer, where you see the thumbnails edge-to-edge, doesn't do stacks or version sets. Press. Ctrl+D/Command+D to get back to the old detail view instead.

How Can I Delete Originals I Don't Care to Keep When Importing From SD Card?
Hi All,
Just installed LR3 thanks to Santa. Have been going thru the video tutorials as well as the Lightroom_3_Help PDF and Lightroom-GettingStarted_Lo PDF but I can't figure out how to simply delete files from the gitgo when importing from SD Card or from my HDD (files already moved to HDD but not yet culled or imported into LR3). I was hoping I could, in LIBRARY, just r/c on a file that is plainly not worth keeping and just delete it so I dont have to do it later. Seems like I could, this way, be able to concentrate more on the shots requiring editing.
Also, need suggestions as to how I should import my files using DNG, Copy, Move, or Add. First off, I am not a working pro but am an occasional serious amateur. I'm picky and I like things to look good the first time and I like options. The pix already on my HDD are in the PICTURES folder; those imported from SD card get moved to that PICTURES folder. I have, in the past, moved the processed verssions to a different DESTINATION folder - now I still have the originals and I have processed copies to post and share.
I understand that LR3 does ND editing but I assume that if I only keep a DNG then any time I want a JPEG or PNG of a picture I have to open LR3 to make one. Since I only have been shooting a few hundred pix a year (though with my new D5000 this will change) I am not gonna load up my HDD any time soon. So, is there a way I can make a DNG file, keep the original RAW or JPEG file AND save a processed JPEG or PNG copy in my DESTINATION folder in one swell foop?
Thanks in advance,

The LR Exchange site has three plug-ins that allow you to keep a "mirror" copy of your DNG/RAW images in JPG format for use by others without having to go into LR and generate them when needed. The link is:

One of them should help you with this.

I deleted photos from sd card before it finished importing into iPhoto, how can I recover them?
I hit delete photos when importing from SD card to iPhoto. Lost everthing that was current. (All the old photos were still on). How can I recover my photos (taken yesterday)?
media recover - the free download will tell you what can be recovered - you have to purchase to actually recover the photos

New laptop (toshiba qosimo w/20gb ram, ssd and hd), new os (windows 8), new version of lightroom (5.2) new bloatware (toshiba), new problems.
I can usually get one import from sd cards to work per boot in lightroom. when lightroom ejects and a new card is put in (I run several cameras per shoot) it shows the pix thumbnails, correctly identifies the new images and then just hangs on import. the import bar jumps to about 2/3 and stops, even running over night does nothing. At this point trying to use the windows explorer browser to access the sd card also hangs explorer. I can click the close "x" on the import status bar and it does eventually close though I must physically eject the card before the "Import Results" error dialog pops up. I can then re-mount the sd card and manually copy the files into thir dated folders, making new ones as needed, and sync the parent folder in lightroom and continue working but that is very tedious.
I've made sure all bloatware is not indexing, importing, or any other bad behavior. I have tried killing of all apps and background bloatware item by item with no success. Rebooting allows me one additional import but hangs on the second sd card.
While it criples lightroom I doubt it's lightroom's fault. Anyone have any ideas on how to troubleshoot? If it matters I'm using the built-in SDHC card reader which is a realtek pcie unit running the "RiconMan.exe" process. I've even tried killing that and letting it restart with no joy.
Thanks in advance,
Mark
UPDATE:
My third paragraph made me think it could be connected to the built-in reader so I searched around and eventually "borrowed" my wife's USB reader. I was able to do 2 imports on it after the 2nd import on the built in reader had failed. Looks like it's a conflict between realtek's reader and lightroom. I can copy files from several sd cards in explorer so this problem only seems to afflict lightroom.

YOur card should be listed near the top of theSidebar. Select it and check the box above to Open Photos for this device.
You can also make Photos the default app in Image Capture. -
Confusion re: photostream, import from memory card, events, etc.
confusion re: photostream, import from memory card, events, etc.
Up until a few weeks ago, my travel-photo-handling went like this:
Each night, I download photos to my iPad for safekeeping. They, of course, wind up in Photostream.
When I return home, I connect my camera card to my iMac (where I have my iPhoto library), and I can "see" the photos on my memory card - the photos which, although in Photostream, I have not yet manually downloaded.
I select and ownload them.
New Events are created in my Library automatically, as I have my preference set to Autosplit Events.
This week, I came home from a trip during which I had downloaded to iPad during my time away.
I connected my memory card to the iMac.
iPhoto did not "see" any photos to import - as far as iPhoto was concerned, those photos were already in my Library.
I had iPhoto show all photos on my card, selected the photos from my trip (I shot over 1000) and clicked "Import Selected"
iPhoto says they're duplicates.
However, the photos have NOT been downloaded manually and there are NO Events in my Library for those days.
Note: yeah, they're in Photostream, but IN THE PAST - and I mean literally up until 3 weeks ago - the photos have ALWAYS been "visible" and importable even if in Photostream, as long as I had not yet manually downloaded to the computer.
So my question, I guess, is multi-part:
What changed in iPhoto and/or Photostream in the past couple of weeks?
Why are Photostream photos suddenly considered to be the same as the photos on my card which have not yet been manually downloaded to the computer?
What the heck is going on?
I hate having duplicates, but I also hate being confused by something that used to be really easy, then - with Photosream - became annoying, and is now simply perplexing and sometimes imcomprehendable.Check iPhoto's Photo Stream preference pane to see if the highlighted checkbox in the screenshot below is checked. If it is then all photos taken by the iPad are automatifdally being imported into your library.
Go the the Events mode and check the View ➙ Sort menu option to verify where new Evens will be located, at the top of the window or the bottom. Then check to see if your PS pictures are there.
As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Connect your iPad and import all photos. Dismount the iPad, close and reopen the test library, connect the iPad again and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?
If it does'nt then your current library is damaged and needs to be repaired.

When i try to import from itunes into FCP 7 i get error, file error; 39 files recognized,0 access denied 243 unknown
Be careful, FCP is an open system which is great, but it allows you to work with formats that are not completely compatible with fcp and can cause serious problems down the road. You can check the formats of all audio files brought into fcp by selecting them in the browser and hitting command-9, Use compressor to convert all audio files to 48k 16 bit aiffs before importing to fcp. There's a preset for this format in the apple presets. You mention video files. The same thing holds. In particular, avoid bringing in h264 quicktime movies. Convert to an fcp friendly format like prores using compressor.

I've recently just bought a new iPhone and i am wanting to transfer all my music that i habe bought from my old one onto the new one. I've gone onto iTunes and tried to download them all again but it wont let me?
What happens when you try to redownload them ? What you can re-download (the types of content that you can redownload varies by country) will show under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes, and the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your iPhone (and similarly for apps in the App Store app). If you still have your old phone then you should be able to copy your iTunes downloads from it over to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases

Why don't I receive iMessages on my iPad when sent to my iPhone? When I send messages from my iPad, they show up on my iPhone, but doesn't hold true the opposite way?
Ok. So I figured out that I can add the email address to my iPhone 4s to receive the iMessages sent/received from my iPad. How do I get the messages on my iPad that were sent to my iPhone? Is it possible?

Sent photos from iPhone to email and messenger on iPad intercepted but now will not let me see them. Help?
If you sent the photos directly from the Photos app, it is quite possible that you selected Message rather than Mail when you emailed them to yourself. I assume that is how they ended up in the Messages app. I also assume that you no longer have the old phone or you could just email them to yourself again. Is that a correct assumption? If you cannot access the photos on the old phone any longer, and you can see them in the messages app randomly, try closing the Messages app completely and reset the device and then see if the photos reappear.
In order to close the Messages app, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to Messages and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -
Photos not appearing in iPhoto when importing from SD card
On the first instance of using my camera to import photos to iphoto, I used the SD card reader integral on the new iMACs; this worked fine - all photos appeared, I selected import and there they were. Since then, when I insert the SD card, it appears on the desktop and iPhoto launches. Iphoto then shows all the photos on the card that were previously imported, but not any new photos taken. If I open the SD card itself, the new pictures are there. So, why is Iphoto now not recognising new photos that I've taken?
Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

Importing from Memory Card (photos taken with Olympus EP1)
Hi there,
I have used a mac pretty much all my life and importing photos from camera/memory cards is like second nature. I have recently started using the Olympus EP1 and transfer my photos using a card reader in my USB drive. Things have been working great until this weekend, iPhoto (my version is 7.1.5) would only import 150 images out of 446 on my memory card. All images on the card were taken on the same day with the same camera. When I tried to manually import the images by copying them to my desktop and then bringing them into iPhoto the exact same thing happened, stating them to be unreadable files. They are raw Olympus format, all of them. Why is it refusing to import the other 300?
When I open the files in the Olympus software that came with the camera, all 446 images are viewable and editable, meaning that the files are not corrupted. I did the most recent iPhoto update but same problem. I've restarted. Please help!Yeah that is the strange thing. I've double-checked and they are all the same format: _.ORF
Can there be a raw .ORF file and a non-raw .ORF??
I've got all the images loaded into the Olympus Master 2 program (their own image editing software that comes with the camera), and iPhoto open. Master 2 is labeling them all as RAW, but only 150 of those will open in iPhoto. I can't find anywhere that states that those are not RAW, and I didn't change the picture settings on my camera...
So now I'm even more confused with your question as to how iPhoto DID load those 150 photos at all!
