Importing jpg and CR files from HD

I have just started using Lightroom 4.4. In importing jpg or CR files from my HD, I get "Preview unavailable for this file", although: 1) the jpg files were generated by using Photoshop CS4, 2) these photos can be "seen" by Photoshop elements 11 and iPhoto. Any help?

It is not a work around - it is a better workflow - shooting RAW plus JPEG and then deleting the JPEGs make no sense and have no value - shoot what you want and when you shoot RAW Photos makes a JPEG which you can access or export should you need it - shooting both is a waste of time, SD card space and disk space
to delete the JPEGs you can make a smart album with the criteria Photo is JPEG and delete the JPEGs by selecting a photo or photos there and holding down the command and motions keys and pressing delete

NOT ABLE TO IMPORT MUSIC AND VIDEO FILES FROM IPOD TO COMPUTER/ITUNES LIBRARY !!!!

Hi.... I am having IPod Nano 5th Generation. I can access music and video files (that are stored in Ipod memory) in Ipod. But when I connect the ipod to computer, I am not able to access/import these music and video files through computer. Also, I am not able to see any folders like DCIM, Contacts, etc... in the memory of IPod. Can any body help me out... ?

Search it up on google.com. There's a lot of apps that will help you do this. Check out this one:

I tried the import software (trial version) and it was fine but I didn't want to pay for software. You can authorize up to 5 computers in the house to access your iTunes music and other iTunes purchases. Open iTunes, you can go under Store and select Authoize this computer.
Good luck!

How do I import music and picture files from my Creative Zen?

I have a Creative Zen media player, which uses Windows Media Player to operate. I have downloaded media player for Mac OS X, but cannot figure out how to import my music. On my old PC, when I plugged in my mp3 player, it automatically was recognized. Nothing happens when I plug it in to my iMac. What do I need to do?

I have bought a couple of Creative MuVo's for loved ones, and they, as removable USB thumb drives, work well with any OS. The Zen, on the other hand, doesn't have the design simplicity of the MuVo, which is why I didn't buy one. I think that they will pretty much only work with Windows.
One thing is for sure: If you plug in the Zen and it doesn't mount on the Desktop or in a Finder window, it isn't going to work with OS X--yet, at the same time, might possibly get corrupted or damaged when it fails to mount correctly and then you unplug it
P.S. Windows Media Player 7.1 for Mac does not have any support for portable players, and given the availability of Microsoft's free Flip4Mac plugin, is truly a worthless download. If this program has been installed, it would probably be best to delete it (and its preference files for that matter) to avoid potential conflicts with the up-to-date Flip4Mac plugin, which I assume you're going to install. Keep in mind that this plugin has nothing to do with adding support for portable players, but since we're on the subject of Windows Media Player, I thought it in good judgment to mention this.

Import process hangs indefinately on JPG and AVI files

Hi,
I'm seeing a similar issue to some of the other posts.
My configuration is Windows 7 x64, 4GB RAM and a Core i7. All the photos I want imported have been moved to the C drive.
When I try to import a folder with a couple of sub-folders containing a total of about 3000 JPG and AVI files (from a CANON 450D and Fuji Finepix 200EX), the import process hangs inderfinately, and I need to kill the process.
Only around 500 photos get imported.
One strange thing is that I am only able to preview a couple of the files in the preview grid. However when selecting to view a single file instead of the grid view I am able to view the file in question.
I have tried to import one file at a time (for a couple of the ones that fail that is) but the import process still hangs, even though I am able to view the file itself before import.
Have also tried only JPG files, same result.
Any ideas?
thanks

What happens if you try to copy these files to your iMac first? Your problem may not be that applications quit when opening but rather you're having problems simply accessing the disk.
If your external disk was formatted as NTFS by your Windows machine then your Mac will not be able to write back to the disk. Your applications may be attempting to save temporary or permanent files back to the disk. Verify this by going to the Apple menu and selecting "About This Mac". Click the "More Info..." button. Under the Hardware section on the left, look for your drive. It's probably under ATA. Select your drive and look at the "File System". If it is formatted as NTFS, you can copy the files to your iMac, and use the Disk Utility to reformat the drive to a Mac or MS-DOS format.
This could also be a symptom of disk corruption. You can begin troubleshooting by using the Disk Utility found in /Applications/Utilities to verify/repair your disk. If Disk Utility finds problems but is unable to fix them, you can purchase third party tools such as DiskWarrior or TechTool Pro to attempt to repair your disk.
Hope this helps! bill

I exported jpg, tif, psd, and dng files from Lightroom but Aperture does not see them except for dng during import

How do I import jpg, tif, psd files exported from Lightroom 3 into Aperture 3.2? I had no problems before...seems like since I installed Lion, they do not show up in the import folder.

How are you trying to import them (again) ? If you're importing through the Import Window and have RAW only set then that's all you'll get.
Also what's an Import Folder? Not sure how Lightroom fits into this. If you share your workflow with us we might be able to help.

I write both JPG and DNG files in the camera.   Camera is a Leica Monochrom.   Photo, unlike iPhoto, seems to ignore DNG files and only imports JPG files.   What am I missing here?

I write both JPG and DNG files in the camera.   Camera is a Leica Monochrom.   Photo, unlike iPhoto, seems to ignore DNG files and only imports JPG files when both are present on the SD card. JPGs are used for quick proofing on an iPad.    DNG RAW files are edited on a Mac Pro (2013).    Other than deleting the JPGs before importing images from the SD card, is there any way to force Photo to select and import only the DNG images?

Thanks Larry,
I did see the J stacked in the lower left of the thumbnails but couldn't figure out how to get to whatever is below it.   How do you select R?
I use an iPad to do quick proofs of my images.   A JPG is good enough for a proof ( dust on the lens, composition, blown out image, etc. ).   The iPad is JPG friendly and can load the images quickly.    Serious editing takes place on my Mac Pro with the DNG files.   I use the same workflow with the the Leica M 240.   iPhoto has been a quick and easy importer to the Mac capturing all of the metadata in the EXIF sidecar file ( location, date, time, camera settings, lens type). A quick scan in iPhoto for the "keepers" let's me export those worth editing to Lightroom/Bridge/Photoshop. I typically shoot 50 images from three locations in a normal day. If I'm lucky I'll get 1 worth real work to add to the portfolio.

I imported my iweb site files from my desktop to my laptop and now they wont open up in iweb

Hi,
I imported my iweb site files from my desktop to my laptop and now they wont open up in iweb.
I can see the files in the home/sites folder but cant seem to be able to replace them with the site that is already in iweb?
I have just upgraded to lion on the macbook pro and was using 10.4.x on the desktop.
Is there any way to replace the files and work on the web site on the MBP?
And I dont see the library/application support/iweb folder anywhere.
Much appreciate the feedback.
Thanks

As I said earlier, iWeb does not open/import webpages.
And yes, you need the domain file. The movie demonstrates how to move them to and from the default location.
And the page explains how to open the hidden library folder in Lion. Which is also discussed in the Lion forum and extensively in this one.

Separating jpg and raw files after importing in lightroom 5

i would like to separate my jpg and raw files once they are in lightroom (right after importing) so that all my jpgs are 1 after the other on the film strip below and my raw files are one after the other. is this possible?

In Library Grid view, on the Tool Bar (T), change "Sort:" to "File Extension"

Importing .MOD and .MOI files to iMovie - from JVC EverioS GZ-MS100

I'm desperate in finding a solution on the problems I have with importing .MOI and .MOD files to iMovie from a JVC EverioS GZ-MS100.
I have looked up all advices I can, also on this forum... But nothing seems to work for me at all!
PLEASE someone tell me asap how I can get my videos to iMovie so I can start editing my videos...
Thank you so much in advance!!
I have iMovie '09 version 8.0.6 (821).

The Zi6 is not on the compatibilty list however I based my knowledge on this review at macworld.com
http://www.macworld.com/article/135948/2008/10/kodakzi6.html
"To copy your captured content to the Mac, flip out the USB connector, switch on the camera, and jack it into a free USB 2.0 port. If you have the latest version of iPhoto, it launches and offers to import the separate video and image files. If you don’t have the most recent version of iPhoto, you’re welcome to import files into iMovie ‘08 with the File: Import Movie command, or into iMovie HD via the File: Import command. Each command produces an Import navigation window, where you can locate the movies on the attached camera (within the DCIM folder).
The Zi6’s movies are encoded in the H.264 format; as a result, there’s no need to install another codec to use them as you would for movies recorded with the Flip cameras, because H.264 is natively supported by QuickTime (and therefore iMovie and Final Cut Pro). Audio is recorded in the AAC format at 48 Kbps."
So this suggests iMovie 08 will accept the file format the Zi6 porduces. I will attempt file conversion before I loose iMovie 06 though.

How to import missing content for my music and video files from Itune online

JPG and RAW files are not grouped together.

I am finding that my RAW and JPG files are not grouped together. They show up on the Grid View as JPG for the JPG file and RAW + JPG for the NEF(RAW) file. This does not seem to be consistent through out the folder. Some of the pictures are grouped together and others are not. The ones that are not grouped together have been auto-stacked and then unstacked. I am not sure if this is what caused the seperation of JPG and RAW files. I did try to take a picture that I had auto-stacked it and then remove it and it did not sepearate. The "Treat JPG files next to raw files as seperate photos" option is turned off, like it is in my Lightroom 3.

This is what I'm talking about:
Show subfolders are on:
In windows Explorer:
In the Import Dialog:
Where are the files?
If I click on the Folder 2014_12_14... all the files from all folders will populate.

When showing JPG and RAW files as one, which do we see and which is edited?

Hi Guys,
Hoping someone out there will have the answer to this.
Just come back from a long trip with thousands of pics in RAW, I like to use Canon DPP to generate the JPGs quickly and to give me Canons interpretation on the RAW image. (Apparently same processing as in camera).
Once imported into Lightroom 3, I have set up to view the JPG and RAW files as one.
There are two questions:
1.) Which of the two is the visible one in Library mode? can one set the preference?
2.) Which is edited?
I do not really want to fully develop all the pics in Lightroom as some of the standard shots have come out perfectly and at the same time I feel I need to be able to compare them.
Any help offered would be greatly appreciated.

1.) Which of the two is the visible one in Library mode? can one set the preference?
Raw only. The jpeg is sort of like sidecar. Cannot set a preference. The only setting you can change is to view them separately.
2.) Which is edited?
Raw only.
... and at the same time I feel I need to be able to compare them.
Lightroom's Canon-specific DNG profiles are developed to match Canon's picture styles (or whatever they are called). So, if you use, say, the Faithful Picture style in Camera, Lightroom's "Camera Faithful" profile will render your raws very close to DPP, if not identical. That's for default settings. However when you start adjusting, Lightroom's and DPP's processing may differ.
You may not even need those Jpegs for comparison, after all.

Please help as we have no itunes music in Israel, only apps and i cant copy any of my old music from my computer

Thank you for your time

The title of my initial post is a bit misleading. I already took a chance deleting one of the iPhones, hoping if I deleted the wrong one, I can still reauthorize it (all with the same Apple ID acct, so not subject to 90-day waiting period, right?) The iTunes database just updated itself, and it says I have 4 "devices" "in the Cloud", but 5 "computers" associated w my account. How can I find out what computers are associated? Isn't there a list I can see? I dont have a clue what computers they might be. If I use the "Deauthorize All" option, is it a pain to add them all back in. I assume I would have to log in from each computer to reauthorize each one. Would I have to be running the newest OS or version of iTunes to reauthorize? I think I have a PowerBook G4 Titanium with an older OS and iTunes. I'd like to keep that authorized, if possible.
