Lightroom Imports Photos Upside Down

I just started using Lightroom to import my photos directly from my camera. It worked fine for the first few times, but now it is reading all of my photos upside-down.
XP's Camera Wizard correctly reads the orientation from the camera, so I think this is something specific in Lightroom. I've checked the settings, but didn't see anything about orientation.
Thanks...

Hi Same thing here. Also cant preview raw files at import. hoping a card reader will fix both problems.cheers

  • Imported images upside down and blurred Lightroom 1.4

    Hiya everyone. First post on here so I hope I am putting this in the right place but hope you can help me. I have had a trawl through the archives but havent seen a fix for this problem.
    When I try to import images direct from my camera (Canon EOS 30D)into Lightroom, they have started to be displayed on the IMPORT page upside down and very poor quality. If I go ahead with the import they are displayed in LR proper in the correct orientation and clear quality.
    I have done a system restore back to a few days ago when it was working ok, and have tried uninstall and then reinstall. I have also taken my camera back to its default settings in case that is the cause, but nothing has worked.
    I am using the following -
    Lightroom 1.4
    Dell Studio 1535 laptop
    Windows Vista
    Intel Core Duo @2GHz
    4GB Ram
    Hope you can help as I am wary of putting all my photos on LR now in case it fails - I am using Picasa as a storage instead.
    Thanks everyone

    Are you going straight from the camera? Take my advice - don't. Use a card reader instead.

  • TS3274 When sending a photo by email, the receiver gets the photo upside down.  Why is this and what can I do to correct the error please?

    When sending a photo from my iPad with an email, the receiver gets the photo upside down.  Why is this and what can I do to correct the error please?

    I venture to say the recipient is a Windoze user and if so, state of the art Windoze ignores or doesn't recognize photo orientation data that is included with a photo's EXIF data.
    There are 3rd party photo viewing apps that provide for this but not incorporated with Microsoft software.

  • When taking a picture with IPad. Camera my recipients always receive the photo upside down. WHY?

    When taking a photo with my IPad, then sending it, my recipients always the phot upside down.  WHY?   Help Please.

    I think that this is a philosophical question. I, for one, hold my iPad in landscape mode with the Home button on the right-hand side and in portrait mode the Home button is on the bottom.
    Anyway, you're welcome!

  • Why does iPad render online photo upside down?

    Please see this site: http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=cr&CRid=65508&CScn=Oakwood&CScntry =4&CSst=36&CScnty=2005&
    Re: The second photo on the right.
    When it is viewed on the computer (Mac Pro, Mac Mini, via Safari, Firefox, Chrome, Opera) it is fine.
    When it is viewed on the iPad (original, no camera), it is upside down.
    It stays at the wrong orientation regardless how the iPad is rotated.
    This does not happen with all photos on this site.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Mwg

    Cameras can embed orientation data into images so that display/editing software can automatically show them the right way up. The second (and third) images would both appear to have been rotated without amending the orientation data so that the iPad sees them as being "upside-down" and corrects. I downloaded the full size original of the second image and Picasa also displays the image upside-down. Under properties it gives Orientation: Rotated 100 Degrees.
    Now we know why, there is the separate issue of whether or not the iPad should obey or ignore orientaion data for images rendered as part of a web page. It certainly leads to an inconsitency with other views of the same page.

  • Imported video upside down

    Tyring to encode mpg files as FLVs. When I import the mpgs,
    they are upside down. Same problem with Flash CS3 and Flash
    Encoder. The mpgs play fine in Windows Media Player and can be
    converted by Windows Media Encoder without problem. Any ideas? The
    files were created using Pinnacle Studio.

    In addition to Sue's suggestions, you can use iMovie's built in Mirror video effect to turn your clips upside down or, in your case, right side up. Switch to Editing>Vide FX and select the Mirror effect. Now slide the Vertical slider all the way to the Bottom setting and move the Horizontal slider all the way to the Right. Matt_______

  • Lightroom imports photos to wrong folder

    I've been importing lots of photos from my hard drive into lightroom and been moving/renaming them in the process. I only got lightroom a few weeks ago.
    This has worked fine but i've recently imported a few hundred photos off my iphone and doing the same thing - move and rename. The trouble is, these photos keep going into the 2009 folder, instead of the 2012 or 2013 folders that they should be. When i look at the photos, they have the correct name, and the capture date seems to be correct, its just lightroom keeps wanting to put them in the wrong folder by year. Does anyone understand why this might be happening?
    naturally I want all my photos sorted into the right date folders as this is the way ive decided to organise my photos...

    hmm so still not making sense. it keeps wanting to import my photos into the wrong destination. have removed all the photo from lightroom. how do i change it so it automatically puts the photos into the corresponding year/month they were taken..
    I understand its something in the import settings/destination but cant seem to change this. not sure what parts of the import box your wanting to see Dj.
    the structure now is my pictures/2009/21-7-09 then its creating new year folders and sorting them within this 21-7-9 folder..
    can't see to change this?

  • Photo orientation upside down since ios8 update

    This is odd... since the ios8 update, my 5s has started taking photos upside down. They appear correct in the 'viewfinder', but in my 'recently added' they are inverted. While taking the photo, the top bar (which contains the flash settings, HDR, timer and front/back camera switcher) is also upside down. Is this a known issue since the update? Here's a photo of what I mean - and although it looks like the photo in the thumbnail is right-side up, when it is opened, the photo is upside-down.

    Same here with iPhone 6
    I've noticed that the first picture I take is OK...it's all the subsequent pics that are upside down.  If I leave the camera app then come back to it...same thing....first pic is OK and all the rest are upside down.  You can tell before you even take the pic...the flash text (on/off/auto) on the top of the screen will be upside down

  • Why arrive my photo's upside down, sent from my. Photo gallery from my ipad?

    When I send a photo to somebody with a PC they receive the photo upside down.
    Does anybody know why?

    Since the iPad has no real positioning, you can take a photo from any position.  However the camera does have an up and down reference. so if you rotate the iPad the camera may end up side down or on its side. And as such the picture will end up like that too.
    The iPad embeds a special instruction to each picture to tell any App that opens it the proper orientation of the picture. If the App used to open does not support the instruction it simply won't rotate it.
    You can rotate it manually in an image editor, or yes as you found out take the picture with the proper orientation of the iPad.

  • How to make iCloud photostream show upside down photos in correct orientation

    My question is related to iPhone 5s/iOS 7.1.2, Camera.app, iPhoto 9.5.1 (902.17) for Mac, iCloud shared Photostream.
    I have taken photos with iPhone 5s upside down (using volume buttons, i.e. Home button on the left) and loaded them on my Mac (MacBook Pro 15” mid 2012 with OS X 10.9.4 with iPhoto). I copied the photos from the iPhoto photostream into iPhoto library in an album of their own and rotated the upside photos in the correct orientation. Then I shared the photos in iCloud and the photos which I had roated to correct orientation where once again upside down. And when I drag&drop the photo (which has the corrected orientation) from iPhoto library album into a Finder folder the photo is once again upside down when I open it with Preview.
    I have a notion that all Apple software on Mac shows correctly the iPhone upside photos (because it reads the photo metada) and practically all non-Apple software both on Mac and PC doesn’t use iPhone photos’ metadata and show the photos upside down.
    Is there any way to make iCloud show the  shared photos in correct orientation in the browser without rotating the photo with external application in iPhoto or is there a bug in iCloud or is the iPhoto rotation a "fake rotation"? I want to ensure that people with whom I share the photos, see it always in the correct orientation (no matter what the platform is) so that they don’t have to struggle with rotating of the stuff and I don’t have to take extra steps to rotate the upside down photos outside iPhoto.
    N.B. 1: I understand that in the future I always have to shoot photos and videos with iPhone Home-button on the rigth side (i.e. volume buttons pointind down). My question is related to the photos I have already taken.
    N.B. 2: I just learned that when I rotate the photo with Preview, throw it back into iPhoto library album and then add the rotated photo in the shared stream, it is in the correct orentation in iCloud. However, I want to avoid this extra step

    That's the answer to your question. Why is it you want to avoid this?
    Because it is an extra step. So, I already rotated the photo with iPhoto's rotation functionality, but the rotated photo is upside down in iCloud photostream. I think it should stay rotated when shared in iCloud. The other problem is that if I forgot to rotate the photo before sharing it in photostream, I have to delete the photo from the photostream and add a rotated version from the iPhoto library in photostream and now the order of the photos is incorrect. iCloud adds the last shared photo as the first photo in the stream. At least I haven't found a way to place the new photo in its original (the correct) palce in the stream.

  • Why is it that when I connect my iPhone 5S to my Windows Vista computer, the photos made with my iPhone are all of very low quality and most of them are turned upside down?

    Why is it that when I connect my iPhone 5S to my Windows Vista computer, the photos made with my iPhone are all of very low quality and most of them are turned upside down?
    On another note, the iPhone tells me that it's ''busy'' when opening a photo on the computer.
    (I tried restarting my PC, connecting via another USB port, importing using PhotoStream, etc...)

    Are you using the front or rear camera? When you say they are low quality, are you referring to file/pixel size, or how the picture looks? As far as upside down, how are you holding the phone? Older versions of Windows have issues reading the Metadata from the pictures and will not display the same.

  • Lightroom 4.4 can no longer import photos from my iPod Touch 5

    I've been importing photos from my iPod via USB without problems for over 6 months. In the last few days, importing from this device slowed down significantly. As of yesterday, the program freezes completely when I try to import (although it had worked earlier - albeit slowly - during that same session.)
    I've tried:
    Restarting the program, computer, and iPod.
    Closing all other programs.
    Removing all other external devices from the computer.
    Uninstalling the computer's USB hubs and restarting.
    Deleting all videos from the iPod's camera roll.
    Reducing the size of the camera roll (down to 650 from about 800).
    Nothing has worked.
    I'm still able to import fine from other sources (an external hard drive & a memory card).
    Weirdly, I plugged in my husband's iPod Touch - which until then had never been used in Lightroom - and it also froze at import, so it seems to be a problem with the type of device rather than the device itself.
    I'm running Windows 8 64-bit with 3.3 GHz Intel processor and 6 GB RAM.

    I too had a problem. iTunes wouldn't sync any photos nor list my iPhoto Albums.
    I created a second iPhoto library and then added some photos and created several albums to see if iTunes could see the new iPhoto library. It did see the new library. I then started to add photos to it. I finally found the offending files - 4 .avi files - that for some reason when added to the library caused iTunes to balk. I removed the files and all is well. I even have other .avi files in the original library and iTunes responds normally - just those 4 caused the problem.

  • Video imported upside down.

    Lightroom 5.4 imports my mp4 videos upside down. The videos were originally taken with a HTC One, but moved to my hard drive before importing them. The video is displayed upside down in the thumbnail preview for the import dialog, the library and during playback. The video plays normally on my computer.
    Details:
    Lightroom 5.4
    OS X Mavericks 10.9.2
    Mac Pro (Late 2013)
    HTC One M8

    that's pretty strange.  What format is the video?  Bet it's not a fcp friendly format.  Wonder what would happen if you used compressor to convert to a fcp friendly format like one of the flavors of prores.  If you do this, remember to make sure audio is not pass thru (if the audio is compressed which I bet it will be) but enabled and converting to 48l 16 bit.
