Lightroom 2.1 lost display of folders

I was exploring synchronizing folders between Lightroom2 and finder Mac 10.5.6. All folders disappeared, and F7 would not reveal the folders. What next?

John, After posting my question, I realized that the left panel in Lightroom is not missing-- F7 works to hide/display the Panel, not not including the Folders File. So, looking in the the computer's Finder, I see listings by name of all of the Lightroom photo folders and individual images. At the top of the Lightroom hierarchy is "Lightroom", and nested under Lightroom are Backups, Download backups, and Lightroom settings. Next, BUT at the same hierarchical level as Lightroom is "My Lightroom Photos," with all photos nested under that. (Scott Kelby's new manual recommended that I put all my photos in a folder called My Lightroom Photos rather than "Lightroom". So, folder by folder I moved them from "Lightroom" to "My Lightroom Photos", correcting names, etc as I went. I probably made a mistake somewhere, and I wonder if the new file should have been placed UNDER Lightroom's name and/or if its catalog name is screwed up. Here's why: When opening Lightroom, I briefly see the name, "Lightroom 2.app alias," but when opened, the name at the top of the grid in Library says, Lightroom2 catalog.Ircat - Adobe Photoshop Lightroom - Library." The good news is that I found that from Library I can display all photos in a grid, one by one, or by going first to Finder, as a folder. I can also edit and print individual photos. So, I'm only missing my Folder index: you're right that nothing is missing - except the connection to folder naming.

Since I've installed Mountain Lion, I am having lock up issues with multiple programs. MS Outlook has crashed and I've lost all my folders. HELP?

Since I've installed Mountain Lion, I am having lock up issues with multiple programs. MS Outlook has crashed and I've lost all my folders. HELP?

okay I've finally been able to get tor and all the other programs to work according to my plan the only thing that's still making problems is that iptables doesn't work as I want it to, when I start chromium without proxy settings privoxy doesn't seem to forward the information to polipo.. do I need to add another rule to iptables.rules in order for the program to know it has to reroute the information again or how can I get this to work? and is there any way to run rtorrent with proxy support?
anyway, problem 2 and 3 are still to be solved.
and does anybody know where i can get a good dansguardian blacklist that was not designed for 6 year old children and for which I don't need to subscribe? I'm still getting these partypoker popups -.-
//e: with iptables it's the same thing as described in the first post. https works, http doesnt. I get the output "Invalid header received from client." on http sites. still no idea why though.. (and the https-version of torcheck.xenubite says i'm tor unprotected while starting the browser with iptables)

How to get Lightroom 5.7 to display in full screen mode on Mac Yosemite?

How can I get Lightroom 5.7 to display in full screen mode in Yosemite (Mac OS X 10.10.1)?
Of course, that old full screen button at the top right of the window is gone now in Yosemite, but the third button in the top left of the window (the one that used to be green) should perform the same function, but it doesn't -- it just resizes the window, which was the default behaviour in Mavericks.
And there's no "Enter Full Screen" command under the View menu, either.
Seems pretty essential that a photo editing app would have a full screen view to remove all the clutter. How do you do it in Lightroom?

Shift+F Toggles the different screen modes for the Lightroom application, pressing F Takes an individual image into full-screen mode.

I enabled my restrictions and then disabled them succuessfully, but in the process I lost all my folders that my apps were defined into. The apps are there but the folders don't exist anymore, please help.

Is the photoshop CC and lightroom CC support retina display ?

Hi, my name is Riyadh
is the photoshop CC and lightroom CC support retina display ?
and is the photoshop CS6 & CS6 extended support retina display ?
and what is the product of adobe dose not support retina display ?
Thank you for response

Photoshop and Lightroom run on nearly any display supported by the operating system. For example I run on a 2880×1800 display on my Windows 8.1 desktop system. That's the same resolution as the Mac Retina display. If you're asking whether there are special features designed to format images for the particular Retina display sizes, the answer is no.
Currently there are (5) different "Retina Display" dimensions

In place display of folders:available?

Hello,
Is the inplace display of folders and their contents available in 3.0.8 ? currently,
I use a html portlet to show the fixed tabset. But, in 3.0.7, if you go to a folder, then you lose the tabs. Any workarounds or
do I have to go to 3.0.8 ?
Thanks

Thank you Jerry ! That was a feature that we were really looking fwd. to. Could you please take a look at my post about the disappearing folder region edit links ? I take the following steps to consistently get the same result:
1. Create content area
2. From Navigator (or Explorer), click on edit Folder properties.
3. click on the page tab (so now you see the pageforXXX)
4. Edit the page so that now you have a horizontal region with a HTML portlet (or some other portlet) and the bottom region has the nav bar and folder.
5. Now go the CA and click edit folder style,style link->folder layout. The links to edit the different folder regions is not there.
Any clues.

I downloaded Mountain Lion from being on Snow Leopard and lost my entire Office 2004 suite, including Entourage which was my main email server. If I download Office 2008, will I retrieve all my lost Entourage email folders?

Other options?

It's not that simple. You didn't lose your Office 2004 suite. Office 2004 won't run in Mountain Lion. You need to update your Office software. You need to purchase either Office 2008 or 2011. Either one can run in Mountain Lion.

I lost mail smart folders on iMac after delete them on Mac Air

I lost mail smart folders on iMac after delete them on Mac Air with differents mail accounts.
I don't undestand, I have email accounts totally differents between iMac and Mac Air, I don't know if is an iCloud issue.
When I open Mail on Air I see a lot of smart folders I use on iMac and I thinked of a some old sync mismatch, so I deleted smart folders on Air.
Today when I turn on my iMac I see I lost ol my smart folders, but are differents computers, differents email accounts, one used for work the other at home (gmail).
Of course I have time machine backup but don't know how to restore smart folders.
Please help me, I don't want smart folders be synced beetween differents accounts
I attach my iCloud settings...

I don't know the answer to your question, but smart folders do not actaually contain messages, just links to messages from other folders. So nothing has actually been lost. Once you recreate the smart folders, you'll see the same mail inside them that you did before.

Lightroom does not display imported folders in correct location

Hello,
OS X Yosemite 10.10.1
Lightroom 5.7
In Lightroom, I try to import photos and store them in a folder named by date. All import settings are configured in such a way that Lightroom indicates that my photos will be imported as I want them to be.
Lightroom creates the folder in the correct location on disk.
However Lightroom does not display the newly created folder in the correct location after import, instead it adds the folders to the top level of my catalogue.
I've triedimporting from both from my cameras card and from a local folder, the results are the same for both methods.
Does anyone know why this is happening or do you have any tips on how I can trouble shoot this issue?
Something that may be related to this issue... while in Lightroom, if I right click the top level folder and click "Synchronize folder", Lightroom displays a dialog box indicating that there are new photos and missing photos...
"Import new photos (7934)
Remove missing photos from catalog (7931).
I have been importing photos in the same way for years. I have have upgraded Lightroom once, and I have swapped computers once.

This problem most likely occurs when there has been a case change in a path on disk. In other words (using the screenshot at the top of this post as an example), something like this:
/Users/hurley/Pictures/photographs
intentionally or unintentionally gets changed to:
/Users/hurley/Pictures/Photographs
(i.e., "photographs" was initially lowercase, but got changed to an uppercase "Photographs")
As you've discovered, Lightroom does not handle this well. You can fix the problem by completely changing the path, and then updating Lightroom with the new path. Try these steps:
1. Quit Lightroom.
2. In the Finder (i.e., on disk, not in Lightroom), alter the path that your photos are stored at. In other words (again using the screenshot at the top of this post as an example), create a new folder called "Test" inside the "Pictures" folder, and then put the "Photographs" folder inside the "Test" folder, so that the new path looks like this:
/Users/hurley/Pictures/Test/Photographs
4. Launch Lightroom. In the Folders panel in Lightroom, you should now see a question mark “?” on the “photographs” folder (and all the folders within it) because Lightroom doesn't know where they are any more.
5. Right-click on the “photographs” folder in the Folders panel in Lightroom, and choose “Find Missing Folder…” Direct Lightroom to the new location of the folder, i.e., /Users/hurley/Pictures/Test/Photographs. The folder, and the folders within it, should now be found, and the question marks should disappear from them in the Folders panel in Lightroom.
6. Now try importing again to see if the newly imported photos go into the right place.

I can't delete a keyword plus Lightroom now automatically displays keyword folders

Lightroom has suddenly started behaving oddly with regard to keywords and I can't seem to find reference to it anywhere, even if it is "switch" that I have accidentally turned on.
In my set up, I have, for example, the keyword "Portrait" stored under a keyword folder "Photographic styles". Normally only the word "Portrait" appears within the keyword box and that's how I want it, but recently whichever keyword I type, the containing folder pops up alongside it. Note, this isn't during an export of a file, this is actually whilst keyboarding a photograph with the Library section of LR.
Secondly, I can no longer delete a keyword by highlighting it with the keyword box in Library so, unless that word is still within the Recently Used collection of words where I can can un-highlight it, I can't remove a highlight from a photograph at all.
Have I changed a setting by mistake or is there something market going on?
Many thanks in advance for your help,
Martin

Normally only the word "Portrait" appears within the keyword box and that's how I want it, but recently whichever keyword I type, the containing folder pops up alongside it. Note, this isn't during an export of a file, this is actually whilst keyboarding a photograph with the Library section of LR.
It sounds like you created a top-level keyword "Portrait", so now you have two top-level keywords, "Portrait" and "Photographic styles", and you also have a child keyword "Photographic styles > Portrait". (Note that the usual terminology is to call "Photographic sytles" a parent keyword, rather than a folder, since it is also a keyword.)
When your Keyword List has more than one keyword whose leaf names are the same, then LR will include the parent name of the child keyword to remove ambiguity:
To replace the top-level keyword "Portrait" by the child keyword "Photographic styles > Portrait", follow these steps:
1. In the Keyword List panel, hover the mouse on the right edge of the line containing the top-level keyword Portrait, until you see a right arrow appear:
Click on that right arrow, and all the pics containing the top-level "Portrait" will be shown in grid view.
2. Select all those pics by doing Cmd-A (Mac) or Ctrl-A (Windows).
3. In the Keyword List panel, hover the mouse over the left edge of the line containing the child keyword "Photographic styles > Portrait". A check box will appear:
Click on the check box and a checkmark will appear, indicating the child keyword is now assigned to all the selected photos.
4. In the Keyword List, right-click the top-level keyword "Portrait" and select Delete:

Is there any collective way to have Lightroom 5 find lost files?

Though I have tried to move folders and files only with Lightroom, I note that a good number of my images shown in thumbnails in Library cannot be opened because Lightroom 5 cannot find the files. I assume I have moved files among drives accidentally without Lightroom's knowledge. I also note that I can control click and try to find individual files. Is there any way to do this find process for entire folders or drives? Can I import files from a drive (which is the original source of the lost files) in mass and run them through the import function on Lightroom and return them directly to the file from which they were imported? Would this create a new thumbnail in Library but duplicate the files in the affected folder and drive?

Lightroom isn't going to allow you to import images a second time. In the left-hand panel of the library module you can Ctrl-click on a folder and choose to update the folder location or find the missing folder. Have you tried that?
