Import photos and video into different folders

Hi, is there any way to import photos and videos into seperate folders?
I use lightroom to manage my photos and videos, but the videos are much larger so I prefer they are stored in a different location.
I can import them together and drag the photos to a new folder, but this does not create the same folder heirarchy as importing them would.
Currently I import once for photos and onece for videos, but I'd prefer to just "import"
Thanks!

  • Imported photo and video into aperture. Now missing

    I imported some photos and video into aperture last night. I also imported 14,000 jpegs from an SD card shot on a gopro. I checked it was all in four seperate folders in aperture and even wached one folders content as a slideshow. I left my Mac on last night. When I returned to do more work all last nights imports were gone. I am no expert in aperture and have had no problems before.
    I contacted apple support and was advised to delete aperture (not the library) and get the up to date version from App store. This I did but still no sign.
    Where should I be looking. I haver done all the usual searches of the project names I saved etc. HELP

    Thanks Leonie
    I have looked at GraphicConverter and I'm considering a purchase. I have been trying various free tools for fiddling with metadata but none have ever been entirely satisfactory.
    What I particularly like about Aperture's geotagging is that you can drag and drop on to a Google map - nice and easy. But I hate that I have to export the image in order to embed - I have a decent DSLR now so there's no way I will run those original images through an export process - Aperture definitely does interefere with the image as well as the metadata! I wish Aperture would allow proper writing of metadata to masters - other forums confirm it can only write IPTC metadata, and even that appears to be flaky! I don't want all my information to be tied in to Aperture - each master file should 'stand alone' with all its relevant information intact, for any tool I choose to use to interact with it, or if I should send it to anyone else.
    I can't see from their website - is there a user-frendly interface in GraphicConverter for geotagging including a map drag-and-drop? Or do you manually have to enter coordinates in to metadata fields? I assume you can edit IPTC and EXIF metadata to add keywords and things? This would be a useful tool alongside Aperture, to make up for its shortcomings.
    I could use GraphicConverter to add geotags (and keywords) prior to import in to Aperture as part of my import process. At least until I get a camera with GPS and then all this will be a thing of the past!
    I will investigate with videos and post back here with any results.My research on the web is very inconclusive and it looks like different manufacturers use different conventions for video geotags, so I'll see what I can do!
    Personally I find geotags one of the most valuable pieces of metadata I can attach to my personal images and videos, alongside date and time, so i am determined to find a way to do both!!

  • How do I import photos to iPad2 from different folders in my Mac?

    How do I import photos to iPad2 from different folders in my Mac?
    I have a few folders of photos in my mac that I want to be on my iPad2. How do I go about on doing that?
    It seems like I need to put all the folders into one folder and point iTunes to that main folder.
    The thing is I don't want to copy them (waste of space) and I don't want to move them (my photos are organized).
    So is there a way for me to import photos from different folders in my mac to my iPad2?
    Thank you!
    BTW... I don't use iPhoto.

    Find software (which may not exist) to export them in a photo format (jpeg, tiff). IPhoto will not do it

  • HT201302 When I try to import photos and videos, I'm told that there are none

    When I try to import photos and videos, I'm told that there are none. And when I go into the DCIM folder (the only folder I can see), there are no files inside. What else can I do to move my photos onto my PC?

    Are the photos in question in the Camera Roll of the iPad? If not, where on the iPad are they (in what part of what app do they appear)?

    Importing photos and videos from a previous version of Photoshop Elements or Premiere Elements.
    http://adobe.ly/QAckAp

    The title implies "importing photos & videos from previous versions" and only deals with "Organizer".  It does not mention if regular "JPG" or other formats need to change.   It does not discuss if images have been moved from one location to another folder or directory.  It does not discuss any issues of previous versions or backward compatability of formats.

    Cannot load Photoshop Elements 10. 1st (of 3) disks only gives me option to import photos and videos, not to install. How can I install?

    Are you sure that:
    1. You have the correct disc for your operating system? You have both mac and windows versions on the discs. If you have a mac you want disc 3, not disc 1.
    2. PSE is not already installed?

  • How to import photos and videos from Android device?

    Hello
    I just bought Photoshop Elements 11 recently and I'm trying to import photos and videos from my phone, Samsung Galaxy SIII, but having a little trouble.
    When I go to "Import from Camera or Card Reader" option and choose my phone from the "Get photos from" drop down menu in "Source" section the "Photo downloader" finds
    every single photo and/or video stored on the device and it's memory card but I'm trying to import only photos and/or videos I've shot my self with the phone, witch is kept
    in an folder named DCIM, but I simply can't figure out how to so my question is:
    How do I import photos and/or videos from my Android device?

    Try clicking Advanced button (bottom left) in the downloader dialog. You should then be able to select and deselect thumbnails and import only the ones you give the checkmark.

  • Can't Import: Import Photos and Videos Grayed Out

    This is perplexing.   I had this problem in LR3 so I decided to upgrade to LR4 thinking it will be better but same result.  I can't import at all.  Import Photos and Videos Button in the dropdown is grayed out.  Import button is also grayed out!  I can't do anything!
    By the way, I'm using Mountain Lion.

    Have you tried resetting the Preferences file?

    It looks like the card may be the problem, and your best bet is to try the Card Reader - this will make the card accessible by the Finder and you may be able to drag the pics off to the desktop or, at worst, try recover the pics with an app like MediaRecover

  • My Lightroom 5.3 stopped Importing photos and videos.

    Lightroom 5.3 stopped Importing photos and videos. Error message appears "Could not copy a file to the requested location."
    I uninstalled and reinstalled LR 5.3. Problem still occurs. There must be residual problems not cleared out by the uninstall.
    Any Ideas?  I cannot even find a way to contact Adobe by phone or chat. Not even pay for support.  Larry

    Please state your operating system.
    This message might mean either:
    The hard disk is full
    The folder on the hard disk that you are trying to copy the files to does not have WRITE permission

  • IPhoto takes long time to import Photos and Videos

    From a software standpoint why iPhoto sometimes takes so long to import Pictures and Videos?
    Example Scenario:
    on the iPhone 5 - iOS 7 there are:
    2851 Photos in Camera Roll
    1000 Photos in Photo Stream
    51 Videos (each videos average of 3 minutes long)
    on the MAC - OS X 10.9
    iPhoto start to import photo, and more or less, after importing almost 500 photos, just get stop at one particular photo and thats it.
    What are the reason?
    Thank you

    Thank you leonie,
    so my question is why a photo became corrupted in the iPhone?
    Step 1
    Take a Photo
    Step 2
    The taken photo goes into Cameral Roll
    What are the reason that became corrupted?
    Thanks

  • Importing photos and videos from iphone to PC

    So, is there a way to import just certain pictures and videos? I just need one video uploaded to my PC to transfer to a USB for class, and I dont want to import the thousands of photos I have just to get to that one video. Incredibly frustrating! and I noticed the DCIM folder doesn't have the videos in them ever since the ios 7 update, that was one way I could just drag a photo or video on my laptop without importing all my photos. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    Hello KristineS79,
    This can be done by disabling Photo syncing in iTunes, then resyncing the phone.
    To delete synced photos and videos from your device
    In iTunes, click the Device button in the upper right corner (or in the left pane if you have the Sidebar enabled). (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button in the upper-right corner first.)
    Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
    Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
    Note: To delete all synced photos, deselect "Sync Photos from" and, when asked, click "Remove photos."
    Click Apply.

  • When iPhoto '11 crashes after importing photos and videos, they are gone. How can I retrieve them?

    iPhoto '11 randomly crashes after importing/editing/organizing photos and videos. When it does, photos and videos that I've been working on are gone. Pictures taken with iOS devices can be retrieved if they are still in Photo Stream, but videos are gone. Is there anyway I can retrieve photos and pictures that are not saved before iPhoto crashes? Also, is there anyway to prevent it from crashing? It seems iPhoto '11 is doing this since the day 1 I started using it. Thank you.

    Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library
    this should help with the crashes - it may or may not help with the missing videos

  • When I try to connect my iPhone to my laptop to import photos and videos it says there are no files or folders under "Apple Iphone". My laptop recognises my phone and my camera roll has around 300 photos and videos but none of them come up on my laptop?

    The memory on my Phone is really bad so i cant store much. The pictures i am trying to import are really important and i cant lose them. My phone has been playing up a lot and im afraid of losing the pictures so tried to import them onto my laptop. Its a windows 8 and every time i connect my iphone a window automatically opens titled "Apple iphone" but underneath it says "no files or folders". How can i resolve this?
    Also the apple store have told me not updating may be causing problems but i cant update due to no space. i have 3 apps, around 300 photos/videos and no music. it is 16gb so i dont know why im having this problem
