LR 3.3 Import Dialog - Can imports be filtered by file type?

I sometimes use a Canon S95 point and shoot and a workaround to have RAW images AND a certain aspect ratio (such as square) is to shoot with the RAW + JPEG setting. This allows me to shoot in any aspect ratio with out cropping in post. For this reason, my import dialog in LR shows both the RAW images and the corresponding JPEG images. Often I wish to simply dump the JPEGs and keep the RAWs.
Is there any way to selectively check or select just the RAWs other than having to hand check each and every RAW while avoiding the JPEGs. In other words, is there a way to filter or segregate just what you want to import by file type.
Thanks for your help!

Ian, thanks so much for your reply. However that material in the link was WAY over my head. Now that I know that indeed I cannot filter by file type in the import dialog, I will simply import all and delete the JPEGs once in the library module where I can quickly filter by file type and delete the unwanted files there. Thanks for helping me out.

You can copy the contents and paste it into a Word file. Just don't expect everything to transfer or to retain all of the formatting.

Can I change the default 'File Type' for PL/SQL Source File to '*.prc' ?

Want to change the 'default' extension for PL/SQL source to '*.prc'
When navigating 'File' / 'Save As', and selecting the 'File Type' list box,
The default 'File Type' for PL/SQL Source File is '*.pls'.
Can I change the default 'File Type' for PL/SQL Source File to '*.prc' ?
I have followed , 'Tools', 'Preferences' , 'File Types' and added '.prc' as 'Sql Script' file type, because (PL/SQL Source) is not present in the list.

You can certainly overwrite the 'Save As' extension as you are saving the file. I have added an ER for more control over this functionality.

Import from URL with out knowing the file types

Hello Gurus,
I am struck in a strange situation, We need to import files through URL , they may be tiff, pdf, word,excel ...
and you dont know the file type until you open the URL,
So i used both ORDIMAGE and ORDDOC for importing, if the import fails in the ORDIMAGE process due to data curropt error , it goes to ORDDOC and the error is taking way too much time to appear.
1) Is there any way we can find the file type when we open the URL to check if it is a DOC file or Image File.
2) Is there any way to reduce the time taken to show up the error.
Thank you

In Your case, you may need finer control that what import provides.
You can also use the uri types to upload the image and extract the mime type from the response. You can do the same for orddoc. orddoc may take a long time to parse since the blob must be scanned.

Trying to import dvd into iDVD,it says Unsupported File Type:Unknown format

Hi there,
I just had a home movie transferred from vhs to dvd. Now I am trying to import it into iDVD and when i try to the message appears : Unsupported File Type :Unknown format
Logical Volume Identifier/VIDEO_TS.
I wanted to put the home movie to music (it allowed me to import the song, not the video).
It says the kind of file is UNIX Executable File.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

to do this you would first need to convert the DVD (mpeg 2) to QT so you can import to iDvd which btw involves a quality hit. There are apps out there that can do this at a marginal level ... for example:

How can I change the default "file type" in the open file dialog when using Firefox on certain web pages?

I work for a bankruptcy attorney. We use the Court's file upload to file our documents. When I am on the Court's site and I have to pick a file to upload, the "open file" dialog box pops up. In Firefox, the default "file type" is always "image" files. I need it to be "all files". How can I change this setting?

Two observations.
First — "Tools-> ...." is specific to Acrobat X and XI. It did not exist prior to Acrobat X.
Second — Acrobat 9 Pro / Standard (nor earlier release) does not support viewing a PDF page containing a scanned image and performing a right-click ... Save Image As.
The context menu provided by Acrobat 9 Pro with a right-click on a scanned image is:

How can i restrict the selecting file type to XML and TXT in file upload..

Hi,

In place of this i need to show only txt and xml files. How can i restrict the file type to XML and TXT

Hi,
the demo doesn't keep track of this. If you want then this feature isn't implemented. You will also see that the document is uploaded in a directory without changing the file name (e.g. adding the SR number). This however can be done and would be the way to do it

Open File dialog box pops up even when file type is supposed to automatically open

Even though I have selected "Do this automatically for files like this" the dialog still pops up when I click on that file type.
Thanks

An automatically download action is tied to a specific MIME type that the server send via the HTTP response headers and not to the file extension.<br />
So it is possible that you have created this action for a different (or generic) file type.

No. CSS is for presentation, but these parameters belong to
the HTML and
have to be written there.
BTW: The 'embed' element is invalid HTML. If you care about
valid markup
and your site doesn't have to be compatible with really old
browsers
like NN 4 or IE 5.5, then you should use the valid method
using 'object'
elements.

Why can't I change movie file type

Hey all,
I'm running iTunes12 on PC, and I have some mp4 movies I would like to put in the library! I added the file to the library and it goes straight to home videos, which is fine as I'm used to just right clicking and clicking on get info and changing that to "movie" so it adds to my movies library. Only problem is that now, all the information that I used to be able to change is greyed out and I can't change it or anything... not even the name. I really would like to find out what's causing this! I already checked the file and it's not read-only. HELP

Thanks for your reply.
I'm trying to print from organizer. It was all working fine with Elements 8 on my Dell but now I have a new HP and Elements 11. Tried Printer Preferences but it still didn't work. Ugh!

HT1338 How can I associate (and DISassociate) file types with software?

Whenever I click on an MP4 file, it tries to start up my KODAK software instead of something like Quicktime. How can I change that?

The reading of double is also straight forward : just use a dble float wired to the type cast node, after inverting the string (indian conversion).
See the attached example.
The measure of skin thickness is based on OCT (optical coherent tomography = interferometry) : an optical fiber system send and received light emitted to/back from the skin at a few centimeter distance. A profile of skin structure is then computed from the optical signal.

Maximum Number Of Records Import Manager can handle.

Hi Guys,
I want to know the maximum number of records Import Manager can import / handle at a time.
Thanks in advance .
Best Regards,
Ramchandra Kalkar.

Amol,
The reference guide lists the limit at 50,000 records.
My experience is that this is not necessarily the case. To me it seems as though the maximum import depends somewhat on the number of fields you are trying to import. Meaning you can probably import 50,000 records if the file only contains two columns/fields, but if the file contains many columns/fields you probably will encounter difficulty trying to import 50,000 records at a time.

Lightroom 5.3. Import dialog

THe Import Dialog doesn't Show THe RAW files of my Panasonic Lumix GH2. I didnt have any Problems with Lightroom 3.
Did anybody has an idea?

This issue may have nothing to do with the camera per se.
Try expanding the destination sub panel on the R-hand side of the import dialog and see what happens.
Let us know if there is still an issue.

Can I exclude files types (extensions) or Import only specific Types?

Hello,
I am trying to import thousands of pictures into Lightroom as I have a mess of pictures do to a long story...But basically I have probably 30,000 pictures in a bunch of folders that I want to import.
One issue I have found is that I don't want to import TIFF, BMP, GIF, or things like PNG. I really only want jpg files or jpeg files unless I stumble across others in another format I haven't found yet.
Can I set something during the import? I have searched the forums and internet, but haven't found anything that mentions this.
Can someone please help? Also does anyone have a good suggestion on how to clean up a mess like this where I have 30,000 pictures but probably only need 10,000 as there are duplicates upon duplicates due to having to move the pictures around in a hurry as I had a mess in my basement during a storm a couple years ago.
Thanks,
Evee

You can't do it at import, although LR will skip any unsupported file types (BMP, GIF, PNG). Once you've imported though, you can easily filter for the TIFFs and remove those from the catalog without deleting from the hard drive.
Are you wanting to move the LR photos into their own folder structure at the same time, or leave them where they are?
