Lightroom Photo Count

Hello,
I've just begun importing photos into LR. I'm doing it by folder. I'm not certain how this happened, but at this point LR is telling me that I have 2244 photos in my library. But when I take the option to display all photos, it tells me it is displaying 2240 of 2244 and it shows me 2240.
I've gone back to each folder and checked for missing photos and folders and come up with nothing. I don't recall having an abend during an update...but I'm still a new with this SW, so maybe I missed something. Is there an option to validate my library, or the database, or reconnect missing files... to see if that's my problem?
Any ideas?
Regards,
Claudia

Concerning these numbers. For the past few days I have been working at completely reorganising my folder structure so that now I have one master folder with multiple sub folders some of which are divided further still. Then I cleaned out all the dng files from the folders that had both dng and the original raw files. Following this I deleted the current database (after saving a copy for emergencies) which had the result of clearing out all used keywords. I then deleted all unused keywords. The result was a clean start with LR.
I then did an 'Import' and selected only the "Master" folder which brought in 'X' number of images. What was strange was that although LR brought in ALL the images (shown as All Photographs) it then showed X minus Y under the 'Last Import' dialogue which in fact was 4 less then the total 'Import' of 'X'.
I physically counted all the images in their respective folders and this tallied with that shown under 'All Photographs' in LR.
I still haven't found a reason why the 'Last Import' figure was showing 4 images less when I have only done one (1) Import. I found that shutting down LR and then restarting it cleared the problem but the fact that this problem showed in the first place illustrates that there must be some sort of problem with LR's counting mechanism. As this was almost a fresh install because a New db was created there were obviously no flags/filters etc set. Um!!

  • Where is the photo count in the Library Filter of Lightroom?

    Look at this screenshot.
    This is from an online tutorial and is a typical view of the Library Filter. Notice that there are photo counts to the right of each of the search criteria. For example, All (2 Cameras) - 487 photos. Canon EOS 5D - 404 photos, etc.
    Now notice a screen shot from my iMac with Lightroom 5.2 on OX 10.9 Mavericks.
    Notice that there are no photo counts after the search criteria. WHERE DID THEY GO? Or for that matter, were they ever there in this iteration of LR? I think they were but I'm not sure. Incidentally, I am aware the count will appear in the filmstrip (see the next photo) but that is not nearly as useful.
    If anyone can help me get this to work as I suppose it should, please let me know.
    Thanks a bunch,
    Craig

    Thanks Rich.
    Would be helpful to all if Adobe would acknowledge such known bugs on their 10.9 Mavericks compatibility page.

    The white sliders are mentioned but not the missing photo count (which was obviously reported in the beta phase). I'm sure there are more.

  • Photo count wrong in library module

    I Have wrong photo count on all my catalogs in the Lightroom 3 in the library module. It always show 0 count on the top level folders. This creates problem on photo search. I have tried all resources and could not find a solution. Please help!

    I couldn't believe it's that easy. It should really be the default setting.
    Thanks a million.

  • Bring back photo counts on filtering

    I just upgraded to Lightroom 2 and found that the the photo counts of filtered results has disappeared.  I want to quickly and easily see how many results I get in each subfolder for a particular filter/search.  At the very least I'd like Lightroom to highlight all of the subfolders where a result was found.  I used this feature almost every day with Lightroom 1.  Now I have to decide if I should downgrade back to Lightroom 1 for the sake of more funtional search results.

    Lr2 includes a significant number of changes to how images are filtered and the information presented. As a result, presenting the info in the format you got in Lr1.x is not supported by Lr2.x That being said, the information is still available as a total in the info bar.

  • How do I manage Lightroom photos when using 2 computers, keeping all edits made on either one?

    Based on http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1308132?tstart=0 I decided to add each question seperately:
    Hello, I'm quite interested in buying Lightroom 5.2. I tried the RC which ran out now. Yet, I have a several questions that I can't really find good conclusive answers to, that I'd like to get answered before buying LR. Please don't write maybe like this or that (assumptions), since I don't want to start my whole workflow and then realize that I have to change everything around, so please answer, if you know for sure that something works and you are, preferably, using that method too.
    This is the biggest question, where I mainly want a conclusive answer:  How do I manage Lightroom photos when using 2 computers, keeping all edits made on either one of them, using the same photos for editing. I won't use DNG. Details: I mainly use my older MacBook Pro, but would like to be able to use my PC as it's way better (Specs: i5 2500K, 16GB RAM, SSD, USB3, nVidia GTX 560 TI etc.). I have 2 external HDs that I could use, one for Backup and one for the actual Photos/Edits. I'll probably need to use it as my internal HDs are quite full, and I can't just delete stuff or move it to an (Developer programs, Lossless music, etc.).
    Based on this, how do I back up the whole thing e.g. Photos folder (all photos and edits, and preferably presets too)?

    I believe it should be possible to work cross-platform without having to relink files each time, or without having to keep exporting/importing the catalog, by keeping the single catalog and the image library on the one external drive which is then switched between systems as needed.
    Obvious first requirement is an external drive that is formatted in such a way (e.g FAT32) that it can be used on both platforms in read/write mode. Given that, if the catalog AND the images parent folder are both established at the same level in one overall parent folder, then it should be possible to take advatage of Lightroom's ability to use relative paths rather than absolute paths to detect the images, no matter if the drive is named (Mac) or lettered (PC). This is how "export as Catalog" works, i.e. it creates a "package", aka a parent folder, containing the catalog and a replica of the exported images folder hierarchy alongside the catalog. Take that "package" to another system (same OS or not) and "it just works" even if the drive letter is different or the OS is different....because the relative path from catalog to images is still the same.
    I haven't tested this cross-platform (though I have between different PC systems with different drive letters) so for me it's still just a theory, but there may be others who have done this successfully.

  • Startup Disk full. I have external backup drive. Can I delete folders in My Lightroom photos?

    I am using Mac Intel OSX Lion. I received a screen message that stated my startup disk is full. I am positive this is due to my 10,000 or so photos (mostly RAW files) stored in My Lightroom photos folders. Since my photos are externally  backed up can I delete those 9000-10,000 photos in various folders of My Lightroom? And by doing this do I free up disk space in my computer's hard drive?
    I might also mention that photos created in LR5 are saved to folders in the Mac's Pictures area under "Favorites." So am I duplicating, i.e, doubling the file hogging capacity, because it is in Pictures and also in LR5. Any help is much appreciated.

    Jim,
    See my posted title: I backed up all 9000+ photos in 3 external hard drives. Two are full but the third still has a lot of capacity. All photos are saved in lossless .dng file. I don't have a problem going back to those external drive files if I want to do more post processing with the photos.  I fail to understand why my startup disk on the Mac is full as the great majority of file space taken up are from LR5 photos. I only have two or three Mac Applications: Swift Publisher and Quicken Essentials, both of which do not require huge hard disk space.
    By the way, those 9000+ RAW files are also stored in Pictures in the Mac. 9000 files each about 20Mb I calculate to 180Gb. Am I right?

  • After updating to IOS 6.0.1 I cannot copy photos from the iPhoto library to the iPhone. The events appear correctly but the photo count in all the Events is 0

    Same problem here, and it's not isolated.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/20228281#20228281
    I believe you will find you can again sync Photos if you delete the "iPod Photo Cache", but predict that any subsequent attempt will fail.  In my case, the enxt sync removes all the photos again - I've seen other reports of error messages upon sync.  Mine just fails silently. :-)

  • Photo counts in Library Tab of Inspector Pane

    I run Aperture 3.1 on a home and work computer. Home runs Snow Leopard. Work runs Leopard. On my home computer there is a photo count shown along the right edge of the library tab across from each Project name. On the work computer, there is none. I have searched every command, menu, FAQ, forum, and friend for an answer and have come up blank. Is this just the difference in OS 10.5 vs. OS 10.6? Does anyone have an idea?

    see Appearance tab in Preference,
    There is checkbox show version count in projects and albums.

  • Photo count incorrect

    Guys I'm having an issue with the photo count on my iOS devices. I'm using photo stream (NO iCloud Photo Library (Beta)!!) on my iPhone 5 and iPad mini retina.
    I wanted to clear space after importing the photos to my mac. The photos are now gone from my device (as in camera role on the iPhone & Photo Stream).
    But both iPhone and iPad show more than 500 photos in the photos count under General-About. The issue is that under iTunes it is also showing (as on the device) that it is taking up that physical space (several GB). There are no photos in the recently deleted part.
    I have to say that I do NOT want to reset the device (reason: corporate apps [good for enterprise] - big issue setting with company). Strangely enough iCloud Photos web shows a Album I can't delete but it is empty.
    Does anybody know how to correct this? Please?

    Hi rstark18,
    What does the iPhone say? Tap Settings> General> About.
    Did you start to sync photos and disconnect the iPhone during the sync?
    Make sure iTunes and the iPhone are both updated.
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    http://www.apple.com/iphone/softwareupdate/
    If the iPhone continues to show the incorrect information, you can restore it. This article: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305744 will walk you through restoring the iPhone.

  • N8 start photo count @3000

    Hi
    I am new to this forum and I was wondering if there is a way to reset the the photo count to start at 3,000.
    For example photo 000001.jpg would be 0003001.jpg and count up from there.
    Or maybe an app that might do this.
    Thanks! 

    Gerlof:
    Since iPhoto has lost track of roughly 2000 photos you may have to create a new library and import the Originals folder from the old library. But first try using iPhoto Library Manager to rebuild it library. It copies the necessary files and data from the old library and does not modify the old library. Here's how:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File->Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: It can take some time to create the new library if you have a lot of photos. One user reported that with a library of about 5,000 images it took about 12 hours so plan ahead.
    Good luck.
    Do you Twango?
    P.S. if you have to start over and reimport the Originals folders check out Tutorial #1 as a way to keep the keywords of the files that iPhoto can see.

  • Weird Photo Count...

    I just downloaded a compact flash card into my computer and edited some of the images. When I attempted to burn the photos to a DVD by clicking the key photo and using the Share ===>Burn command I got a Disk Is Full message along with a new photo count of 454. I assume that this increase in images is due to duplicates made in the process of doing the rough edits? In an attempt to reduce the number of photos to fit available space on the DVD I next clicked on images near the end of the roll while holding down the command key. While the images were deselected as I did this the photo count remained at 454 and the Disk Is Full error message remained unchanged. Next I deselected all the images and began hand selecting images using the shift key. When I had reached the end of the roll with all images selected there was still plenty of disk space remaining on the DVD. Clearly there is something going on behind the scenes here of which I am unaware. Anybody know what it is?
    Thanks,
    Win

    When you use the Share->Burn menu option you are burning a mini library to the disc. That mini library will be larger than just the size of the photos alone as it will include the original, thumbnail, modified versions along with the various database files in the library. This screenshot is of one of those libraries burned with an older version of iPhoto.
    Click to view full size
    If you want burn just the edited version of the photos select them and use the File->Export->File Export menu option. Select format = JPEG, Quality high or max, size=full and export to a folder on the Desktop. Then burn that folder to the disc. You can check the size of that folder before burning to disc in the Finder.

  • Different photo count

    Hi all,
    I discovered a strange issue:
    If I click on "Photos" under "Aperture 3 Library" which should give me all existing pictures, I get a photo count of 6079 pictures.
    If I mark ALL my projects, which should also give me all existing pictures, I get a photo count of 5556 pictures.
    So, where did the other 523 pictures go????
    Any ideas?
    Johannes

    none, I already deleted all rejected photos.
    But I just figured out the difference:
    Until AP3 I managed my MobileMe Albums with Aperture, but due to huge problems with MobileMe and AP3 I exported all pics to jpegs, imported them into iPhoto and started to manage the online-albums with iPhoto. If I count all pictures on MobileMe, there are 523 pics online. Exactly the difference I see between "Photos" and the sum of all pics inside the projects. So it seems that AP kept references or copies to the old MobileMe pictures in its database. Would be fine if there were any possibility to delete these, but at least I do not have to be concerned that there is any database issue.
    Thanks and regards
    Johannes
