Import Function problem Lightroom 5

I'm testing Lightroom 5 and it seems to be great, but the import function seems to be stupid! Even when I make a new folder in lightroom it doesn't import there, it makes a new folder in Lightroom using where the photos used to be! I've lost some now because of that! That's really annoying! Or is there something I don't understand?

Hi,

Import Function Problem.

I made a new ICT with a name of "DrawSquare" and imported the code my teacher gave me.

* place the pencil on the paper and then draw a square 100 units on

I just got a new Mac Mini, and now when I try to import photos into Lightroom, iPhoto try to load them first, then Lightroom can't find the files. Big problem. What to do?

I just got a new Mac Mini, and now when I try to import photos into Lightroom, iPhoto ties to load them first, then Lightroom can't find the files. Big problem. What to do?

Simple:
File -> Export to get your photos out of the iPhoto Library. In the Export dialogue you can set the kind to Original and you'll get back exactly what you put in.
Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events.
Once exported, you can then trash the iPhoto Library - just drag it from the Pictures Folder to the trash and empty it.
After that, if you're entirely neurotic about it, just put the iPhoto app in the trash and empty it.

I can not import photos into lightroom 4.4 Had no problem before this time.

I can not import photos into lightroom 4.4 Had no problem before this time. I have camera raw7.4 and use a NikonD7100. I have a Mac using 10.6.8. I can see the images and selected for import in Lightroom, but after I check "import" I get a message that Lightroom could not read the files. This happens with both raw and jpeg files. Thanks for a repl

thanks for the reply. would you please tell me how to check for the folder to have write permission. I have done the same settings as before but this time does not transfer. It says can not read files with a code "298". I can see the thumbnails on the screen prior to trying to import the photos, also can see them with the card in the camera and using the view mode. I have up to date camera raw 7.4 for my Nikon D7100 and the settings allow for 7.1 and above

Problems with importing images into Lightroom cc

Problems with importing images into Lightroom cc
I have installed lightroom cc and having trouble imortera images from my Canon 1DX.
Lightroom starting the capture, but then nothing happens more, if I turn off the camera, I get error message photo 100-200 could not be loaded.
Now I have left lightroom 5 and where the input port works fine.
What happened to the upgrade from Lightroom 5 to lightroom cc?
The camera has the latest software.

I've now tested in various ways.
First, I have images on both memory cards in the camera.
Test1) Selects Not all of the photos in the camera at the input port bearings, it seems to work fine.
Test 2) selects all cards in the camera and then get the following, Lightroom starts inportera short but stops and nothing happens (Fig.1).
I turn the camera off after a while and get the next meddelnade (picture 1)
Which can be translated:
"The following files were not imported because they could not read (351)
Property 1-100
etc. "

Problems importing video into Lightroom 5.3

I am using LR 5.3 on a Macbook running Mavericks. Since upgrading from Lightroom 4 I have had trouble importing videos into Lightroom.
The generic video thumbnail appears, but the import hangs and never completes. When cancelling the import the error message is shown "No photos or video were found to import."
After reading on various forums I have tried:
restarting computer (many times)
uninstalling previous version of LR
purging video cache
changing source location
changing destination and/or import type
reinstalling LR5.3
I have also noted that old videos already in the catalogue that played fine in LR4 won't play back in LR5.3. They play fine in Quicktime.
Has anyone else solved this problem?

Hi InVisionMedia
I found a Simular Poste regarding this topic: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5397854
So going over it might enlighting you on the issue. Also i would suggest to start with the Basic Troubleshoot for Playback issues on Lightroom: http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/troubleshoot-video-issues-lightroom-4.html
If you have Lightroom 4 still installed, Also make sure that you can still use the footage in the original L4 catalog.
See if the files still work fine in the "old" version.
Hopefully it will help you to fix the issue.

LR 1.2 Import Function - Shows Previously Imported Directories

I have 40,000 pictures I am trying to import into lightroom. I have 1500 left to go. The process I used has been:
1. File:Import Photos from Disk
2. I then select the main directory that has every photo I have taken or scanned. The directory structure is MAIN DIRECTORY/YEAR/EVENT.
LR scans all directories and runs its' comparison.
3. The "problem with Importing Files" dialog box appears to let me know the following photos will not be imported because they already exist in catalog.
a. Best I can tell it generally gets most of the files that have already been imported correct.
5. I select IMPORT and I then get the dialog box import photos.
a. It shows I have 44 folders left to import.
b. At least 20 of them (I am guestimating) have already been imported.
c. When I select a directory, for example. /Thanksgiving 2003, those photos appear correctly in the preview section.
d. I know these have been imported already and are in my catalog. For giggles, I enter my keywords 2003,Thanksgiving and select IMPORT.
e. I am using "IMPORT FILES AT THEIR CURRENT LOCATION", BTW.
6. Sure enough, the dialog box appears:
a. Import Results | Some import operations were not performed | The files already exist in the catalog (21).
6. I want to NOT view those 20 directories whenever I run the IMPORT function.
a. Also, there are a few directies that had 100 photos imported. The IMPORT CATALOG COMPARISON shows that there is 1 photo in a directory that hasn't been imported. Of course, it has, because when I try to import the one remainind item, is clearly shows as IN LIBRARY.
HERE IS THE IMPORTANT ISSUES, most of the directories are correctly being imported and then removed from the initial scan. I had hundreds of directories that are disappearing from the catalog comparison correctly. It is just these 20 or so that will not go away.
Needless to say, I would like to run import and have NO FILES or DIRECTORIES to import when I am completed this project.

Jao, as a general rule I always want to see exported jpegs or tiffs in LR library. My ideal is to not have to use the file browser in Windows to manage files. I want to know if I have jpeg or tiff versions of a raw file. Otherwise I might end up creating identical jpegs, when I receive a request for a particular file. Since my jpegs are created from raw files adjusted in LR's develop module, I have been considering deleting the jpegs after sending them to the client who requested them, that way I don't waste hard drive space on files that I can easily recreate. Even in this case, I would like to see them in LR, so that I can delete them after sending them to the client.
I create tiffs for two purposes. One is to edit in PS, which automatically gets recognized by LR. But some times I create tiffs that are used in assembling an HDR file. I want to see these in LR, otherwise I need to open the Windows file browser and navigate to the folder to see the tiffs.
I prefer to work in a single program so in general I would like LR to be able to recognize other file types such as Acrobat or InDesign files. The more the better as far as I am concerned. LR could have a preference that would allow turning off the display of other file types, so users who don't want this will not see them.

I can't import photos in Lightroom 3.4.

I can't import photos in Lightroom 3.4. No problems with Lightroom 3.3, seems to be due to the 3.4 update.
Connected Nikon D80 directly to laptop (MacBook Pro 2.53 GHz Intel Core i5). Upon import (RAW) get error message "The following files were not imported because they could not be read." Previews show up OK. I'm importing to an Iomega external HD with 321 GB available, and "Make a Second Copy To" a Maxtor external HD with 300 GB available.
Also tried using a SanDisk card reader (ImageMate SDDR-99 V3) with same results.
I've tried 3 different SD cards: Kingston 2GB, PNY 4GB, and Lexar 2GB, all with same results.
I've tried importing JPG photos from Nikon Coolpix S6000, with same results.
I've even copied JPG files to laptop HD, and tried importing that way. Get same error message.
I've optimized the catalog, and still won't work. (Catalog contains 14,422 images.)
JPGs import fine into iPhoto on another computer (Mac G4).
Also tried different USB ports on laptop, with same results.
Any suggestions...

Problem resolved...Ran disk repair on Iomega HD. Disk Utility found and repaired problems. Uploads to Lightroom now function as normal.

How do I correctly import images into Lightroom?

Before installing Adobe Creative Cloud, I deleted Adobe Elements and all files in My Pictures on my hard drive so I could start fresh. I copied groups of images from CS5 Bridge on my old pc onto an empty flashdrive and tried to import them to Lightroom. In addition to those copied images, whole bunches of other images imported. Even worse, those added images were sorted strangely, not even belonging to the groups as I had them in my old pc.

Since you used the Copy import type, at least the images are also where they originally were, other than those on the flash-drive which was a temporary location for images from another location except when you plug it in.
So there seem to be two unexpected things: more images were imported than you wanted to be imported, and some of the images are in folders that don't match the date they were taken.
The folder-date mismatch might be due to some of the photos not having a taken-date in the exif information so the date they were last modified is used, instead. You should check your destination naming options in LR to see if you have things set to import into date folders or not. If not, then you actually specified that LR import a particular import's photos into a specifically-named folder that you typed the name of.
As far as how extra photos got imported, only you can answer that. It would have to do with where you told LR to import from and if you have Include Subfolders selected. There is a way to specify an Auto Import folder using LR / File / Auto Import where LR will watch for photo files and import photos it see show up in that folder, but I doubt that is the problem.
You'll have to decide on what to do now. If you have all the photos still on the flash drive, then you might want to start over. However, also think about if you want to be doing a Copy Import into your pictures folder from everywhere else, or if you want to use Explorer to copy the photos, yourself, outside of LR and do an Add import. A Copy import from the flash drive could make more sense, since that is only a temporary location for the photos, but for other photos already on your computer, an Add import might make more sense. If you use your OS copy commands to move photos from the flash drive to your computer's internal drive, you can decide what to name the folders, instead of LR choosing, if you have LR Import set to use dates.
If things aren't in completely the wrong places, you can drag-and-drop within the LR Library Folders panel to put things where you want, and you can also right-click Remove (without deleting from disk) any extra photos.
Also, there is nothing magic about the Pictures folder. You can choose to make a new folder and put your LR photos under it.
The bottom line is that LR isn't doing anything more than what you told it to do, and it sounds like you just aren't aware of all the settings enabled during your imports so unexpected things happened.

I want to import bookmarks from Internet Explorer 8, but the import link under file in Firefox is ghosted out and doesn't allow me access. How can I access the Firefox import function?

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Disable auto import function?

I want to disable the auto import function in iTunes, but can not find the setting.
My problem is I download a new song into a temp directory, immediately iTunes opens and imports the song into the iTunes library. I DO NOT want iTunes to import the song at this time. I want to move the song to my MP3 folder first.
This is a real pain because I have to first delete the song from iTunes then move the song file, then import the song again from the MP3 folder. If anyone knows a way around this please let me know.
Thanks!

Missing Thumbnails in Organizer Importing Function

I recently upgraded my my operating system from Windows XP to Vista. When I used the import function in Elements Organizer (with XP) I could preview the thumbnails and select the desired images on the camera or compact flash card. Now that I have moved to Vista the thumbnail preview or selection is no longer visible or accessable.
I have been through the software options, search engines and this forum but have seen nothing about this problem. I do sometimes have a perchance to miss the obvious and apologize if this is the case. Any help is appreciated.
OS Windows Vista 64 bit
Photoshop elements 9
8Gb RAM

Possibly due to display or dpi settings in the Windows control panel being below 96 dpi or 100% especially if you have a short screen e.g. laptop or notebook.
A work around is to import everything from the card into a folder on the hard drive. Then use File à Get Photos
It’s then possible to select and deselect from the Organizer import dialog.

Import Functionality in Oracle ADF BC with Jdeveloper 11.1.1.2

Hi all,
I am using Jdeveloper 11.1.1.2 and I am trying to import functionality in my application.
I am following the steps of: http://andrejusb.blogspot.com/2008/07/import-functionality-in-oracle-adf-bc.html
I have 2 data model and I would like to import the functionality of one data model, in the other.
My problem is when I tried: myModel2-->right click-->project properties-->deployment-->edit
I don't see nothing to filter myModel2, I see only Library Dependencies, Connections, JAR Options ADF Validation.
If I tried : myModel2-->right click-->project properties-->deployment-->new-->filters
I see only the folders: Merged Contents of this file Group's contributor, .data, 00000000
But I can't see the folders I have (mypackage.test.model.entities).
Where I can found them? Is there a workaround?
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Andrea

Ok, but I taught that after importing myModel2 in myModel1, Jdeveloper realise a merge and it visualizes a unique package, even if it is splitted on two or more projects/models.
So that, it seems to me this procedure is useful for importing jar file, but not for splitting a very big project in a lot of smaller projects, doesn't it?
Thanks for your opinion
Andrea

Software Functionality Problems

Hi Experts,
I'm new in Xcelsius and facing two serious problems:
1. When opening and working with the Xcelsius the "Connections" function is greyed-out and also the "export to flash (SWF)" is greyed. But, except for these functions I can work properly, create & design my components and use the export function for Powerpoint/PDF/Word.
2. After importing XML file to the Excel spreadsheet (in the Xcelsius), using the "Import" function in the Developer tab, I refreshed the data (using "refresh data" function) and it works fine. When closing the XLF file, opening it again and tring to "refresh data" again I'm getting a pop-up message says "data source not found", although I checked the XML file in the path and found it is exist.
My developing station details are:
Windows Vista
Microsoft Excel 2007
Xcelsius 2008 Peresent
Also notice my work station is a LG laptop (I found threads here about Xcelsius software problems which refer to Laptop systems).
Any Ideas???
Shani

Hi Shani
Welcome to Xcelsius.
First make sure you update to the latest Fix Pack 1, many issues have been fixed since the initial release.
Now the bad news. If you have Xcelsius Present, you do not get connectivity options. You need to buy Xcelsius Engage for that.
And more bad news, the XML import that you use in Excel 2007 is not recognized by Xcelsius. You would need to use the Xcelsius XML import which is not available to you in Xcelsius Present.
Please contact whoever you bought from to see if they can help you get the right version.
