Is there any way to tell Lightroom not to make subfolders?

Okay I'll try to explain what I'm trying to do: On my external drive is a folder called Digital Photos and inside that is two subfolders; RAW Files and Final Versions. Then there is another folder on my drive called New Photos RAW Files. What I've been trying lately is when I'm done shooting some new photos I transfer the new ones to the New Photos RAW Files folder.
Then I start Lightroom and tell it to import the photos from the New Photos folder into the program. What I would like to be able to do is tell Lightroom to rename these new photos with my naming scheme I came up with and store then in the subfolder RAW Files which is in the Digital Photos folder.
But I noticed that Lightroom likes to always create new subfolders for you. So what happens is Lightroom renames the new photos and puts them in a subfolder named 05-15-2001 (or something similar to that) and that folder is placed inside another folder called 2011.
I don't really need these subfolders being created so I was wondering if there is a way to tell Lightroom to simply take the new photos and after you rename them simply place them in the RAW Files folder which is inside the Digital Photos folder.
I hope I've made myself clear and I admit I'm just a newbie at this and it's hard to get the hang of this powerful software.

It appears I have figured it out. You gotta go down to where it says Destination and tell Lightroom to Organize into One Folder.

  • Is there any way to tell which formulas a particular cell is in, reverse look-up style? That is, is there a way to search somehow for which formulas in a sheet contain a particular cell in them without opening all of them up? If not, it would be nice

    Is there any way to tell which formulas a particular cell is in, reverse look-up style? That is, is there a way to search somehow for which formulas in a sheet contain a particular cell in them without opening all of them up? If not, it would be nice.
    I'm fixing a Numbers document that I use in business daily that's become overly complicated, but while I want to clear/delete a number of cells in it to clean it up, I'm not sure if those cells are being used as source for other formulas on the page. I don't have to open all my formulas one by one to see if that cell is in there, do I?! That'd be a huge amount of work if I wanted to eliminate say 10 cells to search each formula on the page to see if it is in there or watch all the cells when I delete that cell to see if the numbers change! There's got to be an easier way! Right click doesn't seem to be any help.
    I don't want to damage my daily tool to make it cleaner and reorganize it. Is there really no way to do a reverse look-up of which formulas a particular cell is in?! Any time I click on a formula it highlights all the CELLS in that formula. Why can't I (or can I?) do the reverse and see all the FORMULAS that contain a particular cell?
    As a Numbers document ages or gets used frequently, you can sometimes forget which cells are tied to which formulas. You just look for the results of your formulas. Would be a nice thing to be able to do. Thoughts? Work-arounds? Answers?

    Answer would be no unless application provided such feature. Numbers does not as far as I know.
    Note that even if you have complete list of formulae used in a table, identifying formulae referencing any given cell is not simple.
    E.g., cell T20 is referenced not only in
    =T20+1
    but also in
    =SUM(T)
    =SUM(20:20)
    =SUM(S19:U22)
    =OFFSET(S1,19,1,1,1)
    =INDIRECT("T"&(10*2))
    In order to identify such formula, we have to actually evaluate it to see if it references the given cell. Especially such formula as OFFSET() and INDIRECT() may not be found by static parser because their parameters can be dynamic.
    Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings.

  • Is there some way to tell lightroom to just re-export the previously exported files?

    Shot a celebration (Park, Mass and Party), went home and processed the raw files in Lightroom, Exported them into 3 folders.
    Then I proceeded to edit the files in photoshop, first folder that consisted of the park went well. Files looks great, even after compressing them again.
    Then up were the Mass pictures and that's where it all went down hill. When I loaded up the first image it was compressed to hell All the black areas were all pixelated, so I went into lightroom and sure enough it changed the quality from 100% down to 60%!
    All my other settings were the same so I didn't accidentally reset the whole thing. Not sure why or how Lightroom did this, I've had it on 100% for the past 2 years!
    Now I have to export them all over again, the trouble is there was 800 that I culled down to just 150. I really don't want to hand pick them all over again.
    Is there some way to tell lightroom to just re-export the previously exported files?

    The short answer: no.
    Lightroom remembers recently imported files in a collection, but does not remember recently exported files.
    That said, you could use the SQLiteroom plugin (free, by me) to round up a collection of *all* exported files, which might help.

  • Is there any way to tell the differences between auroras or betas?

    There are various arouras and betas released during each rapid release cycles.
    Is there any way to tell the differences (changes/fixes) between auroras or betas?
    bugzilla can only tell the target for landing but not releases for some of the changes/fixes ...

    The Beta builds of a version has about six to twelve with nine being the average in last while until the 34.0 Betas. For Aurora which now currently called Developer Edition has checkins almost everyday so therefore there are updates each of those days.
    For Beta builds you can look at http://release.mozilla.org/ and http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-beta/
    For Aurora you can look through http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-aurora/
    If you want to be a Tester then perhaps http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=23 may be of interest as many Testers hang out there.

  • We each have our own device, a laptop and an iPad.  when sending imessages recipients cannot tell which of us sent it other than looking at the content.  Is there any way to add an identifier to make it clear who is sending the message?

    We each have our own device, a laptop and an iPad.  when sending imessages recipients cannot tell which of us sent it other than looking at the content.  Is there any way to add an identifier to make it clear who is sending the message?  I know we can say 'this is mom or this is dad" but when an email is sent it identifies the device that sent it so why not imessages too? 

    Stop using the same apple id on all your devices. Each person should have their own. You can still share apps via home sharing.

    Do you have a back up?
    If not you're into using file recovery software like  File Salvage - you can download a free trial and it will scan the disk for you and tell you with might be recoverable. Actual recovery will require that you purchase the app. There may be many files with the same or similar names. Always recover the largest file size.
    There are other such apps. Search on Macupdate or the App Store

    Ah, well, then the notes are probably gone. Did you save any of the email from that account on your computer? The notes might be there if you did.

    You can restore from your iTune or iCloud backup if you have one.

  • I have an old MacBook (Mac OSX 10.5.8) with iPhoto '08.  Is there any way to back up not only the photos, but the way I have organized them into events and labeled them?

    I have an old MacBook (Mac OSX 10.5.8) with iPhoto '08.  Is there any way to back up not only the photos, but the way I have organized them into events and labeled them?

    Yes. Back up the Library.
    Most Simple Back Up:
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
    Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store

  • Is there any way to tell Airport to select the strongest network from saved networks?

    I have two routers in my house as both are fairly crap, and essentially I have one router for upstairs and one for downstairs (to be fair, my house is a few hundred years old and all the walls are massively thick granite so perhaps no router would negate this problem). This is a minor issue really, but is there any way to tell Airport, rather than simply having a list of networks to try in preferred order, to check which of the two networks has a stronger wifi signal when the mac is booted up or woken from sleep, and join that one?
    Don't mind doing it manually tbh, just curious as to whether this could be automated.

    Hmm, this is interesting. I actually didn't know this.
    From:
    http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/answers/4-wi-fi-tips-from-former-apple-wi-fi-engi neer
    "Apple devices choose networks by your preferred order. Period. If you have multiple networks of different names your Mac or iPhone will always choose the first in your iCloud-synced "Preferred Networks" list even if this one isn't going to give you the best bandwidth. If you have the network name/SSID the same then it will chose the radio that it predicts will give the best throughput (which isn't always the one with the best signal, but that's an even geekier discussion you can hear in the show). Make all the Wi-Fi networks in your home the same. Your life will be better for it."
    Maybe I've been working on too many PCs over the last 5 years.

    What do you mean nothing.
    If it shows $0.00 then that's nothing, that's zero. If it shows truely nothing then you are not logging in with an account that had store credit. Or not logging in at all.
    Click on your name so the triangle appears, then click on Account for more details.
