Lightroom is not reading my gps info

Lightroom 5 is not reading my gps info as it did in previous version. Can someone please help?

Hi,
I know this problem. There is some timestamp or gps data missing in your file (I can not exactly remember). Can you upload a image (or the gps part of exfitool dump)?

    If you are having the same problem, i.e. a disk permission problem, open your favorite search engine and search on, "change disk permissions", and I think you'll find plenty of information on how to fix the problem. This is a Lightroom forum. Your problem is with your operating system. There is no sense in rewriting instructions that are already available if you do a simple search.

  • When I bought my D800, lightroom would not read my big files, so I had to transform them into DNG .. should I keep the DNG or the NEF files? Now, I started working only with the NEF, so I don't have this problem anymore -

    when I bought my D800, lightroom would not read my big NEF  files .. I went crazy…. so I found out I had to transform them into DNG .. should I keep the DNG or the NEF files? Now, I tried again and I am being able to work with the NEF files … don't understand…. anyway … I have to throw away some files … they are to big … should I throw the NEF or the DNGs? (as the DNGs are not edited yet…)

    Hard to say why you couldn't open them first time around...possibly low memory?
    In any event, as to the question about which to keep. This is a topic that is argued long and hard here and in other forums.
    For myself, I use only the NEF files and don't bother with DNG at all. Just can't see any long term advantage to force me to do all that extra work. Others feel that the "universal" format of DNG make it worthwhile.
    Either way, it's hard to justify keeping both (though a few people do).
    good luck

  • Lightroom 5 doesn't show GPS info from canon 6D

    Lightroom 5 doesn't any longer show GPS info from canon 6D in imported rawfiles. This regards MacOS-version. It works in iPhoto and in Lightroom 5 for Windows 8! Strange...

    I think I was having the same issue - after all I found out that when importing photos via Lightroom, I was overwriting the GPS information by "updating" the metadata by using the preset I used to use for my scanned film photographs. 
    Check the following:
    When importing, on the right hand side you see "Apply During Import"
    If you have the "Metadata" section "None" then this is not the solution for you.  But if you have something else, make sure that you go into "Edit Presets" then UNCHECK "GPS" section of it. 
    Hope this helps. 

  • Lightroom will not read sony ARW files

    I understood the latest version of Lightroom supported the recent Sony A7 series, whose RAW files are Sony's own ARW files. I have the latest Lightroom but it will not read these files.

    Here is a list of the Sony A7 series cameras that Lightroom supports, and the version of Lightroom required. The Lightroom versions are in the highlighted area.
    If you are certain you have the appropriate version of Lightroom installed, then provide more information. Can your operating system browser see the raw files? Have they been downloaded to your hard drive? What operating system are you using? What is the exact version of Lightroom?

  • ITunes does not read audio track info from CD burned with Toast 10 Titanium

    I cannot get iTunes on my Mac laptop to read the CD text that I type when I burn an audio disc on Toast 10.0.7. This is true, even though I choose the Toast option "Add CD Text." I have to re-enter the info into iTunes, duplicating the effort I put into naming the tracks and artists in Toast. Even after doing all this, however, the track icons within the disc icon on the desktop will not reflect the iTunes info. When I click ""Get Info" for the disc, its says "You can only read" under the "Sharing & Permissions" section. How can I fix this? Is this a Toast issue or a Mac/iTunes issue?

    It is an iTunes issue. iTunes can write CD text when it burns a CD, but is not capable of reading CD Text from a CD.
    If you want to see a list of ripping tools that can read CD Text, refer to this Wikipedia article. If you don't have time to read it, here is a summary: almost every ripping tool can read CD Text, except iTunes.

  • Lightroom does not read DR data from Fujifilm X100

    NB this also applies to ACR.
    If I use the Auto DR setting on my Fujifilm X100, and that then chooses DR200 or DR400, the raw files are underexposed by 1 or 2 stops respectively when Lightroom imports them. Apple Aperture however reads the DR data and adjusts accordingly. Will Lightroom/ACR be fixed to do the same?

    I am not too familiar with the Fujifilm X100, but it might be worth checking if under Camera Profiles Lr includes profiles for DR200 and DR400. For old Nikons it includes 3 profiles for Camera D2X Modes 1 to 3, plus other profiles for other settings under Picture Controls.
    P.S.: I know somebody is bound to say that when you shoot RAW this does not matter.

  • ITunes not reading updated channel info

    Hello.
    I have a podcast that was previously submitted without iTunes specific tags. It was a plain RSS feed.
    I have gone back and added iTunes tags, and everything in new <item> entries is updated fine in iTMS, but nothing in the <channel> seems to be. I'm missing the image, author, description, etc.
    My cast validates on feedvalidator and nobodylikesonions. New episodes do not show up in the iTMS listing but download fine when you are subscribed.
    I have pinged the server. New <items> got updated. How do I get iTMS to re-read the <channel> tags?
    Can anyone help?

    Well, evangelizing open source and Linux inside Apple, and to the unwashed masses, would be a good thing. I wouldn't mind listening, but I only use iTunes.
    Definitely start with validating your feed. Start at http://feedvalidator.org , that site is down right now, hopefully it will come back later.
    To get the nice image and such you need the iTunes specific information. See the specs at http://www.apple.com/itunes/store/podcaststechspecs.html
    Email me offline and I'll help you get everything all set up for iTunes. Are you using any kind of software for creating you ogg-cast? Or is it hand-crafted?Mike

  • Metadata changes in Lightroom are not reflected in Premiere Pro C

    Hello everyone. I am having trouble with my current workflow. I am shooting RAW with a Canon 7d using Magic Lantern. I use raw2cdng to transform the mlv(raw) files to cdng. I then use lightroom to color correct my DNG files. I use lightroom to save the new metadata info to my files. Those changes that I make are reflected in file explorer, but when I import the files to Premiere Pro using the MediaBrowser the color corrections that I made in lightroom are not being shown. What am I doing wrong? Why is Premiere Pro not reading my metadata info correctly? I appreciate all of your help.

  • Will not read D800 NEF files

    Lightroom will not read Nikon D800 NEF files.  I have updated lightroom twice,  first to 4.1 and second to 4.2 and in neither case would the files import.  I have read several forum entries that say these files are compatible with Lightroom and/or to update Lightroom.  Anyone have an answer?  This is getting really aggravating!

    Nikon Transfer is obsolete and should not be used.  The Transfer option of an up-to-date ViewNX2 should be ok.  I would hesitate to use something that tries to be very consumer friendly like Windows Photo Transfer in case it is extracting JPG previews from the NEFs instead of actually transferring the NEF files, unchanged, but if you can determine they are really raw files, not just JPGs or JPGs renamed to NEF, then it’s probably ok—the NEFs will be much larger than the JPGs so that’s a way to tell.  I think you should test with a few photos, waiting long enough to make sure you do actually get previews rendered in LR’s Import area.
    Personally I just use Windows Explorer and copy the files from my card in a card-reader to my local hard-drive then do an LR Add Import from there.  I use a codec-pack that allows Windows Explorer to let me see the JPG-previews that are embedded into the raw files so I am not copying blind.

  • Lightroom not reading correct data for Lens and Camera Serial Number

    Hi you all.
    Recently got Lightroom, and I'm so impressed - I never imagined image organizing and adjustment could be this easy and at the same time very advanced.
    I have a problem, however. Lightroom (and Adobe Bridge, too) does not correctly read the EXIF data of Lens type and Camera Serial Number.
    The first ~50 images I took and imported turned out correctly and displayed my serial number and lens (18-55 mm Canon) inside Lightroom.
    But now, whenever I import photos into Lightroom or view them with Bridge, they all display "Unknown Lens" and "Unknown Camera Serial Number".
    At first I thought that maybe the camera didn't correctly record this data on to the photos anymore for some reason, but a comparison using EXIFToolGUI shows that the metadata is EXACTLY the same as in the photos that display this info in Lightroom correctly.
    I have not done any changes to either my camera (Canon EOS-350D / Digitial Rebel XT) or lens (the kit lens, 18-55 mm Canon).
    It seems that for some reason, Lightroom has stopped reading these two fields of metadata - all the other fields, such as aperture and shutter speed, all display correctly.
    I also tried to reimport the photos into Lightroom, but it didn't help. Neither did "Synchronize Folder" -> "Scan for metadata updates".
    What should I do? I'd like my lens information do display correctly, as I'll buy a new lens soon.
    I have attached one of the photos that Lightroom doesn't read the data correctly from. Try importing it into your Lightroom, and see if how the info displays.
    Thanks in advance.

    Are these jpgs or RAW?  I have only edited metadata on jpgs.
    It looks like Vista's import stripped out all the makernotes.  I didn't look at your file but that seems to be what happened.  Be warned, Photoshop CS2 also strips out makernotes!
    Now how to fix the problem.  If you want to edit the metadata on files already loaded into LR, you need to write out your metadata to the files first, then edit the metadata, then read the new metadata into LR.  This is scarey for me, so I always make sure my backup is up to date on the images first.
    What to do...  You probably can't put back all of the makernotes, so what to do to get the lens information in.  I don't know if putting back in the makernote LensType would trigger LR to reconsider its lens information.  I don't know.  If it had a real lens name, my guess would be no because it would have an XMP::Lens field which would override.  But maybe unknown lens doesn't have this field and it would re-read the makernotes.
    The other solution is to forget about makernotes for these images and put the exact text you want into XMP::Lens.  I think that's the "easy" way.
    In either case, you will have to become familiar with exiftoolGUI or exiftool itself.  I use the command line exiftool but it looks like you can edit multiple files with exiftoolGUI.  Select your files, click the edit thingy (^) under XMP, choose various, and there is lens.  Put in the text you want.
    I would do this with one file first.  If the lens shows up after you read the new metadata into LR, you know you have it right.
    Note, exiftool can write backup files for each file.  This makes too much of a mess for me.  I prefer to copy the directory first (I have copies anyway, I just have to make sure the backups are up to date).
    Good luck!  I'm struggling with a similar situation where the same lens used by two different cameras is coming out with a different name.  I need to go back and "fix" the names in the images already imported, and then develop my procedure for setting a single unique name before I load new images into LR.  Not too much of a problem because I'm loading in GPS information anyway...  What's another call to exiftool...

  • GPS Altitude Not in Extended Photo Info or EXIF Dat ahwne exported

    Hi,
    I have my own website that uses a Goggle Maps plugin to read and show GPS info for photos I upload. When I use Places to capture that info the Altitude info is not stored either in iPhoto's database or in the EXIF info for the photo when exported. Is there anyway get this info stored in the database and phot when exported?
    The Google Maps plugin on my site makes use of the Altitude details to show a more close up image depending on the altitude chosen. Without this info the site just shows a extremely high level world map with a pin showing in the country where the picture was taken. Not particularly useful. So I have to go and edit each file on my website and manually add this info. Which is very time consuming.

    Jennec
    iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback
    There is no provision in iPhoto to add altitude at this time - iPhoto should maintain the EXIF data that is imported - if it is not then I certainly would report that as a bug
    When I show extended photo info in iPhoto for photos it shows the altitude - I presume it exports - will test later

  • LR 1.4.1 not reading GPS metadata

    I recently geotagged a number of files (Nikon NEF) that I had previously imported into LR. I know I should have geotagged first, but oh well. Anyway, I tagged the photos in a separate directory (made a "working" directory for the tagging in case something went wrong) then copied the files back to the original directory, overwriting the untagged versions. I opened LR and did a "Synchronize folders" choosing only to sync metadata. In Library view, with the metadata pane set to "all" I still do not see GPS info. Any thoughts? This is my first try at geotagging, so I could easily have done something wrong.
    Update: I did a test image (to which I had not made any changes) and chose "Read metadata from file" instead. The GPS info appeared. Of course, this poses a problem since that action on a larger scale will overwrite keywording, etc on the files. Definitely not an option.

    OK Carl that makes more sense. The first question is did you update the images metadata from within LR before geotagging it outside of LR? If you do this then any geotagging you add to the file will only add to the metadata not delete any. It sounds very much as though you didn't update the file from within LR first. Now, having said that I'm not entirely sure how much is saved in the database and how much is saved in the metadata itself - I have a sneaky suspicion not everything and perhaps a quick visit to the FAQ's might help here or someone else will jump in.
    A little OT I know but seeing as how you mentioned it. I am not a big fan of geotagging tracks from my unit (Garmin 60CSx) as I find the accuracy is dependent upon several variables e.g. how often the unit records a point and are the unit and cameras clocks exactly in sync. My preferred method is to set a Waypoint changing the default name to that of the image number. Back on the puter it's simply a case of marrying up the image number and the Waypoint number which is dead easy with my preferred geotagging application - RoboGeo.

  • Export with Metadata does not write EXIF Lens & GPS info

    I use the Olympus E-3.
    I've worked an entire project with Aperture 2 (now at 2.1.2), only to find out eventually that when exporting, aperture does not write the Lens info, and GPS section of the EXIF. This is bread and butter for me.
    Did a search in the forum, and there was 1 other who encounter the same problem..
    http://www.trick77.com/2009/02/01/aperture-doesnt-export-all-exif-header-info/
    the workaround was to copy EXIF from the original file, using Exiftool with GUI on windowsXP. The result being that Adobe bridge and LR can read, while aperture cannot read.

    I also encounterd this annoying problem... I just posted another message about this...
