Import using develop presets won't work!
Hi all,
I just upgraded from LR2 to LR3. A lot to hate in this new version. But I suppose one needs to adjust and no doubt I will, but there is one thing that is about to drive me up the wall. Something I haven't been able to fix, so here I am, looking for a bit of help.
Here's the problem:
Because I don't like Lightroom's Sharpening & Noise Reduction settings, I used a preset in LR2 that I applied automatically when importing my images into LR. Now, with Lightroom 3 this just won't work properly and I get exclamation marks, indicating those images are not in the 2010 develop environment. I realised I was using my old presets, created in LR2, so that made sense. So I first deleted all my old presets and to make sure, I also deleted my metadata preset that I also apply on import. I couldn't find a way to delete those presets from within Lightroom by the way. So I just went to the library and trashed them manually...
Next:
I open LR3. Now I have no user presets anymore, of any kind. I then import the first image of today's shoot. In the develop module I make sure that I'm working in the 2010 process environment. I set Sharpening and Noise Reduction to what I want them to be and make them a preset. Then I made another preset for my metadata. But after importing the rest of today's shoot with the presets I have just created, it will not accept the 2010 settings and I get the exclamation mark with every image. I have checked that the culprit is not the metadata file. If I use only that to import an image and leave the Develop Settings on None, all is well, and the image is regarded as being in the 2010 process state. If I then *manually* apply my earlier created Noise Reduction/Sharpening preset, it accepts it and all is well. But as soon as I try to apply that same preset again when importing my images, then, when I go to the develop module, the image is suddenly in the 2003 environment again and I get the exclamation marks. I have tried everything I can think of but I cannot escape it any longer: I have been defeated by Lightroom 3. What on earth am I doing wrong here? Anybody?
Yes, I get the same thing with the sliders being greyed out. Funny thing is that the sliders *are* set exactly as in my preset and when I click 'yes update' to 2010 standards, the settings don't change but only the sliders become accessible. The thing is that I really don't want to be doing that with every import, even if you can do the whole batch at once. What I don't understand is that when I import with the preset turned off and apply it in Lightroom's Develop Module, it accepts it without a problem but that when I use the same preset on import, it won't work properly.
Now what the poster in the other thread said was:
"When I saved a new preset and selected to also save the process version, a line in the preset was created: ProcessVersion = "5.7". When I cut and paste that into all my other presets then the sliders were all active when I used them."
I have no idea what he is talking about or how one would do that. When I create a preset I simply click the + sign and in the pop up window select what I want, give it a name and that's it.
Edit: Sorry, I apparently overlooked the Process Version box in the preset panel! Must have been a case of not seeing the forest for the trees. Problem solved. Thanks.

I have been importing cr2 raw files to my iPad using ios 5 but importing cr2 raw files won't work on ios 6. Sees files in camera but when import stops it fails with an exclamation mark in red circle. Anyone have a solution?
Don't know if you care anymore or it applies, but I was able to get things working but it took drastic measures.
I had to do a full system reset and update by doing the following:
- Make note of all your settings in your system and apps especially accounts and forget about in app data that's only on your iPad and not in a cloud service because it will be gone after this
- Connect iPad to Mac and startup iTunes
- Hold down Home and Power buttons simultaneously for about 8 sec until the screen turns black
- Release the Power button but continue holding the Home button until there's a popup on your screen which indicates it's in recovery mode
- Follow the instructions to recover your iPad but recover it to factory state, not recover from a backup
- Reinstall all your apps and content
- Reconnect to all your services on your system and apps
I could not restore from a backup since it brought back my bad data too. It also didn't restore my music and no matter what I tried it wouldn't put my music onto my iPad. Had to start clean.
It appears over time that the system gets dirty and there's lots of bad data that can't get resolved. This is especially true if some of your apps have crashed a bunch. -
The "My Mixology" is not Showing up in my Import or Develop Presets of LR3
The "My Mixology" is not Showing up in my import or develop Presets of LR3. Do I have to download this?
Thanks for your assistance.Hello dj_paige.
Thanks for the reply.
Here is a YouTube video which shows the presets in LR3, which is what I have. At the 1:50 mark you will see in the develop module where he clicks on the Lightroom Presets drop down. In a "LR4" Youtube video which I viewed (I can't find the dern thing!) a group called "My Mixology" was shown under which their were some other presets.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOdC561kt5I
I am unsure if My Mixology is available only in LR4 or if I can import these or what. I have looked googled for the answer but have been unable to locate it.
Thanks again for your assistance. -
When powering off my iPod touch, any application (facebook, viber etc)installed using App Store won't work again
How to solve this issue?Try a hard reset first. Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
If still no luck, try downloading and installing a new app from the App Store. Doing so has cleared the issue up for several users.

Import or develop preset?
Hello - using Lr3.2.
If I view a photo in Develop - is there a preset I can apply to automatically do particular edits, like Clarity 12 / Vibrance 10 / Saturation 8, and certain NR & sharpening?
I see presets for tihis and that but have not applied them successfully.
Thanks for your help!
Also - just a quick thank-you to the experienced selfless contributors on this forum. You helped me many a time.You can create your own presets, apply them in Develop or use them upon Import.
See the LR Help.

So my friend gave me her old iPod touch. (First generation) and before she did, she had to delete all of her contacts and photos. It was on a screen where it had a loading bar. I waited for that to finnish. After I did, all it shows now is the other end of the USB cord and the iTunes logo. I pushed the on/off button, and the bottom button. It won't let me use it. How do I use my iPod?
Try using RecBoot to kick it out of recovery mode. If that does not work, restore.

Export using a cronjob won't work
Hello,
I am using RHEL4 and oracle. I am trying to set a cronjob that'll make a schema export. The file I edited is under /home and it's called export.sh. When I run it manually (./export.sh )as the oracle user, it runs without problem. When I set cronjob, it doesn't run. To set my cronjob, I entered the following cronjob -e as oracle user and I entered the following 30 18 * * * /home/export.sh so the job executes everyday throughout the year at 6:30 pm. I also set execute provilege on that file. What can be the issue? Any tips to solve it?

[oracle@beretta ~]$skvaishi,Ji Li, ordba, I have only one database on that Linux box and I have configured the .bash_profile file so the variables are taken taken into account at startup time. Do I need again to explicitly add them environnement variables in my scripts? The .profile file seems not to exist. I checked in the $HOME/ no such file. Besides, I tried all the tips u suggested and for some, it worked without problem and for some other I got an email of the sort I posted above. Say I want to write another script to backup my database, should I also add the line u all suggested in my RMAN script? Anyway, am gonna test that out see how it goes and let you know. Thanks in advance. -
I have two problems, and I have already un installed and reinstalled FCP X, and still have the issues.
1) In the import media window I can no longer select my in and out points to import. Pressing the "I" and "O" keys, I just get the audible error beep.
2) in the event browser I can select the in and out points, but it will no longer scrub through the clip with the cursor.
I do have OSX Mavericks installed, but the issue was prior to the install.

David CameronTom, perhaps I used the wrong terminology, skimming not scrubbing. In the event browser on the thumbnails of my clips, I recall being able to skim to a point and then select the in and out points. It apparently is solved. I guess the reinstall fixed it. Well like taking your car to a mechanic its not making the clicking sound now.
As far as the import. I think by your response you solved the problem. I can select the in and out point when I import from a camera or my iphone, but I did not realize you could not select the in and out points from a video file already on my hard drive.
I appreciate your responce, and have a great day.

Video wouldn't play on iPod; Used Videora & still won't work
Hey guys, I have a 30 GB Video iPod, and I'm a bit new at this. I have some videos I downloaded and when I tried putting them into my iPod, it said it could not be played, since it was in .avi format.
But then, I found out about Videora, so I decided to try to convert my videos in Videora so it can play on my iPod video. Now, if anyone has used Videora before, they know that they have alot of options like MPEG-4/320x240/768 kpbs Stereo/128 kbps to H264/320x240/16:9/640 kpbs Stereo/128 Kpbs. When my video finished converting, I tried putting it into my iPod again, and it said it could not be played, even though it was in .mp4 format.
Could someone please tell me which one I should use, MPEG-4 or H264 ? And tell me what I'm doing wrong? I used Videora once to download a video, and now I can't seem to remember what I did. PLEASE HELP!?

Can LR do develop presets on import based on a particular lens
Wonering if you an configure LR to used develop preset based on particular lens used when importing?
Thanks AllLee and Rob,
Thank you both for your responses.
Rob, thank you sir... I appreciate greatly some possible solutions to implement. The CollectionPreseter sounds very interesting. I am relatively new to Light Room 3 (working through Kelby's book at the moment tryng to learn), so please excuse any lightly thought out questions.
You mentioned the idea of setting up multiple collections where each would have its own preset. So lets talk about a possible workflow scenario in order to help me understand whether I comprehend the functionality of what this plugin could do.
Lets say I have 3 Collections with each having one preset assigned.
Is it possible ->
Workflow A
That after I import photos and then assign into Collection 1, CollectionPreseter will assign the defined preset on Collection 1.
Once applied, does the ability exist to then move the pictures from Collection 1 into Collection 2 (while keeping Collection 1 preset) to apply it's preset and then lastly Moving the pictures from Collection 2 (while keeping Preset 1 and 2) into Collection 3 to apply its preset? with Final Export.
OR
Workflow B
Would the flow have to be something like this based on above:
Import and place into Collection 1 (preset 1 is applied). Export and Save
Reimport and place into Collection 2 (preset 2 is applied). Export and Save.
Reimport and place into Collection 3 (preset 3 is applied). Export and Save Final.?
The other that I have not raised is what about droplets (actions) with Photoshop CS? Are multiple droplets able to be applied and ran in a batch if I integrated with CS that way?
Thank you...

Import and storage of LR4 develop presets
i use iMac 27", 16GB ram and mountain lion, along with LR4.2
i have only recently begun to use develop presets, being lazy has just creeped up on me. I have 15 or 20 presets showing in my preset panel. Most are old.
i find that under app;ication/support/adobe/lightroom, that i have two folders. one called "develop presets", and one called "user presets." both contain folders of presets. some seem to be duplicates. in total, the 2 folders contain about twice as many as in the preset panels. a good number do not show in my develop preset panel.
is this as it should be? can i create subfolders under the USER PRESETS in the develop presets panels and move them to there?
this is already sounding more complicated than it should. I will read the online help again.
thanks for any suggestions in this area.
vincethanks RIKK. i had figured that out a few minutes ago and was considering withdrawing it. it was so simple.
in any case, i am grateful for your response

AE upgrade now presets don't work?
Hi adobe community,
Just recently upgrade my AE via the desktop ap (I have full CC) and now my animation presets won't work? I get an error box
( 0 :: 1 )
After Effects error: Can't import file "Fade Up Characters.ffx": unsupported filetype or extension
AE 14.1.1
I am trying to get the presets out of Bridge - do I need to also upgrade bridge? I can't see an upgrade for it on my desktop ap.
Any help would be great thanks
PatPhil, a specific bug was fixed in After Effects CC 2014.2 (13.2) that prevented application of animation presets from Bridge on any OS. I can confirm that this bug was fixed on both Mac OS and Windows.
You're likely seeing a different cause of the same problem. Two questions:
1. What version of Bridge is installed on your computer?
2. In Bridge, go to Preferences > Startup Scripts. In this dialog is After Effects CC 2014 listed, and is it enabled? If it is not present or enabled, that would explain the problem. A reinstall of Bridge and then After Effects will usually restore the proper scripts, though if you've already done so then I suspect that something may be failing with your install configuration. If you are using custom permissions on your student machines, that could be interfering with the script either being installed or initialized as expected. You'll probably want to contact technical support for help with that.
One further note: although browsing animation presets in Bridge provides a larger interface, it's not the recommended method. The Effects & Presets panel inside of After Effects is the recommended path for browsing and applying presets. Bridge does provide animated previews for the presets included with After Effects, not user-created presets; therefore it is of limited utility. The Effects & Presets panel is faster to use and easier to search. -
External back up won't work on Yosemite Macbook Pro
I downloaded OS X Yosemite a couple of days ago, works well. I went to back up my Macbook Pro on the external hard drive I have always used and it won't work, it just keeps saying preparing back up. It is a WD My Passport hard drive. I tried removing the hard drive and selecting it to use a a back up but still wouldn't work. It has worked fine every time before downloading Yosemite. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I know that no one has replied yet, but figured out the issue. I called Applecare and they couldn't figure it out, so sent me to a genuis at the Apple store. They too couldn't figure it out and told me that it was a firmware issue with the Toshiba dvd external drive. When I got home, I thought I would try one more thing. I hooked it up to a powered hub and it works perfectly. I'm not sure why no one else thought of it, but glad that I did.

My 5th gen. iPod is about a year and a half old and has hardly been used because it WON'T WORK UNLESS IT'S PLUGGED IN! Whenever I plug it into my MacBook, it turns on, restores, syncs, etc. But whenever it is unplugged, it immediately shuts off and won't work. Help?!
Take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP. Whichever is more convenient for you. More than likely you need a new battery.

LR2 - Auto Import develop settings won't stick.
As the subject says, in LR2 changes made to the develop settings preference in the auto import settings dialogue do not stick. I can select a different develop preset, but after closing the settings dialogue, new images import with the original preset. If I open the settings window again, the develop settings preference has been reset to their original state.
I've tried two computers and have the same result on both. Trashing prefs does nothing, but creating a new catalog seems to reset the auto import prefs dialogue, but whatever develop settings I select becomes fixed and unchangeable.
I use LR's auto import feature to work tethered with my MF digital setup on every project - it is crucial to my current workflow. This bug is small, but significant and will probably have me going back to V1 until I can find a fix so any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Andy
(oh yeah, both systems are intel macs -- an iMac and a macbook pro -- and are up to date running osX 10.5.4)Yes, I get the same thing with the sliders being greyed out. Funny thing is that the sliders *are* set exactly as in my preset and when I click 'yes update' to 2010 standards, the settings don't change but only the sliders become accessible. The thing is that I really don't want to be doing that with every import, even if you can do the whole batch at once. What I don't understand is that when I import with the preset turned off and apply it in Lightroom's Develop Module, it accepts it without a problem but that when I use the same preset on import, it won't work properly.
Now what the poster in the other thread said was:
"When I saved a new preset and selected to also save the process version, a line in the preset was created: ProcessVersion = "5.7". When I cut and paste that into all my other presets then the sliders were all active when I used them."
I have no idea what he is talking about or how one would do that. When I create a preset I simply click the + sign and in the pop up window select what I want, give it a name and that's it.
Edit: Sorry, I apparently overlooked the Process Version box in the preset panel! Must have been a case of not seeing the forest for the trees. Problem solved. Thanks.
