Lightroom 5.7 film strip help please

Hello again community I'm back to ask another question. After upgrading to Lightroom 5.7 I noticed the film strip images no longer have icons on them letting me know which images I have edited. I am hoping someone can help me get these icons back. I use the as a digital equivelent to a book mark and they are very helpful to quickly tell me where I left off in my image editing. Your help is very much appreciated.

The preferences look in order and the thumbnail size looks large enough.
The only thing missing is proof that you've adjusted an image or added a rating or flag and that those changes aren't being reflected properly on the thumbnails, so include that in your screenshot.
Here is an example from my LR Develop that shows ratings and non-default settings have been applied and with their accompanying badges:
And that would only proof that you're having an issue not an answer about what to do to fix it. For that, about the only thing I can suggest is to reset (delete/move) your LR preferences file in case it has become corrupted. The location of the preferences file is indicated on this page: Recover catalog, images after resetting preferences
Before deleting or moving your preferences file so that LR creates a new one with default values, review your preferences for any changes and note where you catalog is so you can put things back how they need to be once you've reset things.

Adobe Lightroom Photo editing question! Help please

Hey there, I'm trying to find a way to edit a certain part of a picture rather than the whole thing. For instance, if I want to make a small area black and white, while I increase the saturation of another area, and decrease the temperature of another area. How do I go about selecting only part of the picture, edit it, and then revert back to the whole picture and edit another part of the same picture? Please help me. I am using Adobe lightroom.

Is there any way to get a square section and edit it? I watched the movie which was extremely informative but still there was no way demonstrated to edit a particular area besides by using the mouse to just paint over it or drag through a huge section of the picture.

Lightroom Catalog mix-up. Help please?

I am struggling hard, and failing, to make a new master catalog from 2 earlier, differing, ones. I have an iMac, Lr 5.6, and import into date folders in My Lightroom Folder (in Pictures). I know how to export folders as a catalog, I think, but seem unable to import these (via File/Import from another catalog) into the relevant date folder in my Folders on the LHS of the screen, or indeed to direct where they are going to.
I have Time Machine backups and the actual images are backed up onto an external hard drive.
Any help much appreciated! Thanks.

You don't have remove folders that aren't where they should be.
You just have to drag and drop them to where they should be (this is done entirely in Lightroom, not in your operating system).
It seems like a fair chunk of work to make the folders appear the way you want them to be.
If you feel your are missing something obvious, I think the overall design of the organization of your photos might be the obvious thing you are missing, and again I state my personal preference that I'd rather do the work keywording my photos than having a dated folder structure, I find that to be much more valuable. Anyway, it's your choice. And Lightroom does not have an automated way to clean up your dated folder structure.
I also think it is a mistake to use Scott Kelby's books for advice on organization. I find his writings on organizing to be very limited and inappropriate for many Lightroom users, but certainly appropriate for photographers like Kelby that do distinct photo shoots.

Lightroom 4.4: Only 3 thumbnails will display at a time in both Grid view and the Film Strip

Hi. I have Lightroom 4.4. and Windows 7--both of which have been working fine for several months. Starting a few days ago, however, thumbnails have refused to load for any NEW photos I import. They appear gray/blank in both Grid view and the film strip. However, if you click on any of the film strip thumbnails (while in either Grid view or Develop mode), that thumbnail and corresponding image WILL load--until up to three have done so. Then they begin disappearing again, allowing you to view no more than three images' thumbnails at any one time.
I can't review a shoot via Grid mode this way. I'm also afraid to use Lightroom while it's misbehaving, for fear of corrupting the catalog somehow (though all the images appear to be there). Searching this forum, I found several people who experienced having all of their thumbnails blank out and who were able to correct this by either reinstalling or removing their color profiling software. However, 1) I did this (and it didn't work), and 2) it isn't that all my thumbnails that have disappeared. All the thumbnails and images imported prior to the bug, still initially display correctly.* And I can get three thumbnails of the newer images to appear at a time.
*The asterisk is because after I poked around some more, I realized that if I opened other folders and began post-processing images from older uploads (vs. just viewing them), the thumbnails that initially displayed correctly everywhere also blank out and begin appearing in this up-to-three-at-a-time fashion.
Help, please?
With many thanks,
Rita

Alas, it didn't work. I did it twice--the second time rebooting the computer before starting Lightroom. I didn't expect the reboot to make a difference, but I did discover something else in the process: the second time I tried this, I accidentally opened a different catalog--and new photos imported just FINE into that one, thumbnails and all! For one moment I thought the reboot HAD made the difference. However, when I reopened the catalog I actually wanted, the original problem remained. Thumbnails don't load with import, and, when forced, only display up to three at a time.
So the problem seems specific to this catalog.
And yes--thank you for affirming that reinstalling Lightroom wouldn't work, either. (I forgot to mention that's what I had tried first. It didn't help--but it's nice to know it wasn't supposed to.)
Thank you so much for your reply. Do you have any other ideas, please?
With many thanks, truly,
Rita

If you still have your serial number, look at OLDER previous versions http://www.adobe.com/downloads/other-downloads.html
Otherwise, the US$ 9.99 plan is what is current at Cloud Plans https://creative.adobe.com/plans

Everytime I open lightroom I get a pop up message saying "Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit" and it closes. Ive already tried reinstalling, nothing seems to work. Help please!

Open the folder containing your catalog. In that folder you will find another folder with the extension .lrdata, and you need to delete that folder. After you do that, Lightroom should start normally and will create a new preview cache.

Lightroom 1.1 Develop Module - Film Strip

I noticed in lightroom 1.0 the film strip at the bottom of the Develop module would show if you had made any adjustments to the Photo's by placing a small box with a + and - sign, this seems to be missing in 1.1 is there a way to enable this function.

This must be thread number ten or so on the exact same issue. Make the flimstrip just a shade bigger.

With regards to your .arw files:
You need to either purchase and install Lightroom 5.4 -- OR -- download and install and use the FREE Adobe DNG Converter version 8.4, did you actually launch and use the DNG Converter?
There should be no problem importing JPG files into Lightroom from your camera, what happens when you try? Is there an error message?

What OS are you on?
First step: go to library, and make sure LR knows the location of your files. In grid form, a question mark will appear in the border. If you have masses of red folders, go to the highest level, and ask LR to locate it. (sorry forget the command just now, and I have to split now. Er, Jam. Uh, I have to leave the computer for a while..
good luck
