Import of files into LR from My Pictures drops part of file name

Photos are downloaded into a folder in My Pictures (Windows 7) and named as year-month-day-custom-name.  When importing into LR the custom name is dropped resulting in the loss of that information in the Library line up of folders.  Under file handling in the Import process date-custom name was tried with the custom name still being dropped.  LR is suppose to "import using current name" and it did in the past but is no longer doing that.

That's outside of Lightroom? How do you rename?

What filename template do you use when importing to Lightroom? You should just use "{Filename}", I think.

  • Iphoto 9.5.1 will not import videos with .mpg extension from my pictures folder and keep getting a OSStatus error-54. Is there a way I can import such videos to the iphone library?

    iphoto 9.5.1 will not import videos with .mpg extension from my pictures folder and keep getting a OSStatus error-54. Is there a way I can import such videos to the iphone library? Pls help.

    This is what that error means:
    -54
    permErr
    Software lock on file; Not a subscriber [permissions error on file open]
    Download and launch  BatChmod.  Put the videos into a subfolder and drag that folder containing the video files into the Batchmod window.  Make sure you are the owner and have R,W, X access as well as the group.  Everyone will have R only.
    Check the Change ownership and privileges, Unlock and Apply to enclosed boxes and then click on the Apply button.  When done try importing the files again.

    Dear Prasada,
      The document what we got with SBI4(integrator for SAP and Smallworld)is giving below. full description giving below.I am a ABAP with BAPI Consultant.I don't have BASIS knowledge.if possible pls send me in detail where we need to which TRCOD we need import those .dev files and how to create ne Dev clall with Given TR requerst..ect..
    Importing the Business Integrator source files You import the Business Integrator sources for SAP as transport files. To transport development objects from one SAP system to another, you create a Request. Different kinds of requests exist. Change Requests usually transport
    changes from one known system into another in a known Target Transport Layer. This is the usual method in an SAP environment in which you have a development system, a quality system and a production system. For the Business Integrator SAP sources, Transport of Copies is used. All objects from the Business Integrator are included in the development classes ZPLUG, ZPL_DDIC, and ZPLUG_EXT. They are packed in one single transport file. Ask your SAP system administrator to import the files into the SAP environment.When you import copies into different systems, in the development class, the properties TRANSPORTLAYER and HOMESYSTEM do not change. You must change them manually using transaction SE03 (Transport Organiser Tools). Select CHANGE OBJECT CATALOG ENTRIES and select R3TR DEVC xxx (xxx stands for the development class, for example, ZPLUG). Press F8 to change the TransportLayer, the owner, and the home system of the development class. Repeat this for all three
    development classes (ZPLUG, ZPL_DDIC and ZPLUG_EXT).

  • How do I import a song into GarageBand from 'Music'

    how do I import a song which is in 'music' on my iPad into 'GarageBand' on the same iPad - I do not use the Cloud currently but I should not need to for this simple import (sorry, just starting to use the iPad today for the first time) thx

    I believe at the moment the only way to import new samples into GarageBand is via the File Sharing feature of iTunes when it is connected to a computer. iCloud won't help as each app is sandboxed and can generally only access its own files. Transfer of data between apps is possible but is tightly controlled and mediated by iOS rather than by simply sharing files between applications as you would on a computer.

  • Can I import CD's into iTunes from an external Firewire CD/DVD player?

    The CD/DVD player on my iMac G4 broke and just wondering if I can hook up a cheap external Firewire CD/DVD drive (with RW capability) to my iMac and still be able to view DVD's and import CD's into iTunes?
    Thanks for any answer to this question.
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Yes - connect the ext device - open iTunes - load a CD - it shouold appear in the left most column of iTunes under Devices - rip away.
    To use that same ext device to burn then go to iTunes prefs>Advanced>Burning and select it from the drop down menu.

  • Error occured while importing xsd.file(Name contains invalid characters: -

    Hello,
    i muss import xsd.file.  while importing this error occured:
    İFMEXTDEF CCTS_CCT_SchemaModule-2.0 | http://example.org/XXX/XXX/OUT/NOZ (SC_NOZ V001 of example.org):

    Only a(A)-z(Z), 0-9, and "_" are permitted
    This xsdfile name is CCTS_CCT_SchemaModule-2.0 but PI doesn't  accept "-". But i muss use this file because this file is standart. What can i do for this?
    Thanks
    Nurhan
    Edited by: Nurhan on Oct 18, 2011 11:22 AM

    HI,
      PI doestnt support special characters like '-'. first you need to change the file name as you specify '-'. to remove that and you have to give '_'. then uyou have to impot >XSD file into ESR under ExternalDefination.
    i hope this will help you.

  • Imported source file name changed for the external table

    Hi,
    I have external table from flat file. Now the source file name is changed. I can change the file location to point to the new file name, but I can't update the source for the flat file property(as seen under flat file properties,structure tab. the column "Sampled From"). Is there way to have this update without having to import the file using the new file name again?

    In the Files section in the object navigator find the flat file you want to change the source of.
    Double click on the actual file, and on the General tab change the old file name to the new one.
    The fact that it has been sampled from a different file should not 'disturb' the working of the external table.
    However, if the structure of the new file is different I'd suggest to resample.
    Good luck, Patrick

  • Importing duplicate file names

    To Whom it might concern:
    I have upgraded from LR4 to LR5.
    LR4 allowed duplictes to be imported - one a jepg the other same file name but raw (CR2).
    LR5 does not allow me to do this.
    Am I mistaken or am I over looking something?

  • Problem importing a catalog into CQ5 from Hybris

    Hello
    I'd like to ask you guys for some help on CQ imports. CQ supports a number of different importers. The one I am dealing with is the Hybris Importer.
    I already installed the Hybris embedded server and all relevant packages listed in the CQ docs (cq-5.5.0). I can log into Hybris and view/update the catalogs. However, when I attempt to import an existing catalog from a base Hybris site into CQ, the process fails:
    =======
       1. When I import into the "outdoors" site in CQ, the process starts OK, but then appears to copy only four items:
    A /etc/commerce/products/outdoors/outdoors/en
    A /content/dam/geometrixx-outdoors/products/import/96392-Brazzaville
    A /etc/commerce/products/outdoors/outdoors/en/equipment/swimming/96392/96392.1-S/image
    A /content/dam/geometrixx-outdoors/products/import/96392-Brazzaville
    A /etc/commerce/products/outdoors/outdoors/en/equipment/swimming/96392/96392.2-S/image Catalog imported successfully in 9785 milliseconds
       2. When I import into a new site that does not have the same structure as the Geometrixx Outdoors site, I get
    A /etc/commerce/products/outdoors/outdoors/en

    So, the questions I have are:
       1. Do I need to configure anything before the import?
       2. Does the site in CQ we import to need to have a specific structure before we trigger the import? The Geometrixx Outdoors site has several chapters - men, women, equipment, etc.
       3. Any additional suggestions or pointers you may have regarding the import process.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Is it possible to import photos directly into iMovie from a folder on the HD

    I would like to use iMovie to create slide shows of still photos but can't can't seem to see how to import photos from a file on my HD.  I don't use iPhoto because of the number of photos I have and the way they are organized on the HD (moved from a PC).  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Yes, you can do this.
    Open a Finder window to the photos you want. Select the ones you want to move into your project. Then drag and drop into your project.
    My only warning is that they should be in a folder location that is stable. If you move or rename these photos later in the Finder, iMovie will not be able to find them and your project will be broken.

  • Importing a movie into iDVD from FCE

    I am perplexed. In the iDVD - Movies display, there are shown half a dozen movies. The other couple of dozen movie files which do appear in Finder - Movies are not listed in iDVD. Nor will the movies in Finder-Movies drag over to iDVD. I clicked on the yellow triangle which appears in the "insert movie" box in the theme, clicked 'import' and it told me iDVD does not support that action. So how do I get a movie from Finder-Movies into iDVD? I did not have this trouble with iMovie.
    This is my first completed FCE movie. And things were going so well.

    To import movies into iDVD you may use the File/Import/Video... command, after selecting the theme you want to use for the DVD menu.
    If a movie in the Import dialog window cannot be imported, probably it has a non standard format, and for sure it was not exported from FCE. Any movie exported from FCE with Export/Quicktime Movie (the only correct method to get a movie from FCE to iDVD) may be imported into iDVD.
    So I suggest you review the procedure you used to export from FCE and try again.

    Hi
    I am experiencing the same issue.  I need to create up to 3000 serial numbers in MIGO at a time.  In IQ04 I am able to create a numeric list.  However our serial numbers are alpha numeric or numeric ending in a test figure.  Copy and past only allows 28 entries.  I do have the serial numbers in electronic format.

    Anybody able to assist?

  • HT4792 when i try to import the project into imovie from the desktopk, the project is in faded letters and it can't be clicked on.  I've tried this 5 different times with no success

    I followed the steps to import an imovie project from my iphone to imovie on my mac.  However, when I open Imovie and select file, import, movies HD project, and then go to my desktop (to where i moved the project out of itunes) - I can find my project but it is in faded lettering - so it cannot be selected to be imported.  Ive tried this 5 times to no avail.  HELP!

    It sounds like you are clicking the wrong selection in step 8 which says...
    Open iMovie on your Mac, and choose File > Import > iMovie for iOS Project.
    Choose iMovie for iOS Project, not iMovie HD Project. iMovie HD is an obsolete version of iMovie from 2006.
    Here is a screen shot of what to look for.
