Moving a group of photos-leaves the last one

Not always, but most of time, if I select a group of photos in a folder, then drag and drop them into another folder, it will move all but the last one.
Window pops up saying "There was an error copying files to the destination you selected. The following files could not be copies:"
It will list the last one in the string of files selected.
So then I just move it anyway by itself and it works fine.
1-It doesn't do it every time.
2-Whether I use Drag and Drop or right click the folder and select "Move Selected Photos to this folder" makes no difference.

This have been happening since version 4.
What's going on?
T.G.

This bug has been around since at least LR 2 and was acknowledged by Adobe several years ago. Please add your vote and your possible workaround to this thread in the official feedback forum:
Lightroom: Multiple image move operation bug
That thread reports that the problem was narrowed down to Windows, but I don't believe anyone had previously tied it to the Windows Search service.

When my photos were moved from iPhoto to Photos in the last system upgrade, they lost all their titles. How can I restore them?

In the latest Yosemite upgrade, my photos were migrated from iPhotos to Photos and lost all their titles. How can I restore them?

There is an Applescript, File Name to Title, provided by user léonie that will put the file name of any selected photos into the Title field for that photo. If there already is a title in that field under the thumbnail it will not replace it with the file name.
tell application "Photos"
activate
set imageSel to (get selection) -- get a list of selected images
set counter to 1
set currentfilename to ""
if imageSel is {} then
error "Please select an image."
else
repeat with im in imageSel
set title to the name of im
if not (exists (title)) then
set currentfilename to the filename of im as text -- retrieve the filename of image "Im"
set newname to currentfilename & "." & counter
set counter to counter + 1 -- increment the counter
set the name of im to newname -- write the newname to the title field
end if
end repeat
end if
return currentfilename -- return the filename of the last image
end tell
Copy the script above, open Applescript Editor and past it into the open window. Compile and save as an Applescript application. Put the app in the Applications folder and drag into the Dock. Now you can select images in Photos and launch the app from the Dock and it will do it's thing. It is a bit slow so can take some time for a large number of images depending on the speed of your Mac.
Just to be on the safe side create an album with a few titled and untitled photos and run it on them.

All my family photos for the last 6 years are disappeared...

Hi,
Can anybody help me?
I am in complete chock fearing that all my family photos from the last 7 years are lost!
I have had ALL my family photos in the Adobe Stater Edition. Lately, I have been requested to register to get an unlock code every time I wanted to see photos or download new photos. I have tried to register but has been informed that the Adobe Starter Edition does not exist anymore. Yesterday, I therefore loaded all my photos into Picasa. I worked with the photos for about one hour - and then they suddently all disappeared. I seached for the photoes everywhere but they are completely gone... they are not on the hard disk at all. How is that possible? The photos were located on the hard disc in the "Picture folder" in a subfolder named "Adope". This subfolder was created automatically, years ago, when I started to load photo into the Adope Starter Edition. This subfolder is now empty - how is that possible? If I now start up the Adobe Starter Edition I get the usual "unlock message" - but behind the message I can see some of my photos but maybe this is just a "dead" bacground from my last attempt to get the unlock code?
What should I do - can anybody please help me? I am willing to upgrade to whatever type of Adobe product it requires to get the last 7 years of my family life back.
And yes... I did a full back-up of my photos app. 12 months ago... I looked for it yesterday in complete panic... it is gone... we had a burglary last summer... and yesterday I realized that it has been stolen.
ALL - ALL!! the photos of my two wonderful girls growing up... sitting in the Danish summer fields with floral wreaths on their head... I cannot believe it... I fell I have lost their childhood.
Please help me...
Kirsten

In Picasa, look under to Tools menu, under Options, and at the bottom, it shows 'Save Imported Pictures in...'; look at where it is saving files, then look for a folder called Picasa at that location; could be that it moved all your files to there.

I bought a new iPhone and only photos from the last 30 days were transferred to my photostram on icloud. I thought icloud was the storage for all my old photos. How do I access the old photos on icloud?

I bought a new iPhone 5. Only photos from the last 30 days were transferred to my photostream on iCloud. I thought iClud was the storage for all the old photos. How do I access the older photos than 30 days on iCloud?

Where, exactly, did you read anything from Apple that suggested that iCloud Photostream was permanent storage?

How Do I Sort a Group of Photos on the Same Page with the same Keyword Tag?

I want to group similar photos on the same page with the same keyword tag. I have tried dragging and dropping without any success. Can anyone help?

Create an album, then search using a keyword. Select all the photos produced by the search and drag them into the album.
You can drag photos into any order in Albums and they remain in your chosen order.

If you Restore using last computer you synced to the password will be removed and you can restore the last backup on your computer, which includes your camera roll.
If you enabled Photo Stream in iCloud your photos are in Photo Stream.
If you had installed one of the many apps that can upload photos to a photo sharing site and had used it you will have your photos.
If you have done none of these things you are out of luck. The phone comes with many tools to preserve content, but you have to use them.

Help. I downloaded the OS lion. Then I imported some photos with the "iPhoto". But I see only the photos in the "last import" but I can not see in the library or photos of events, although they are marked as a number.

As far as i know, you can use a third party iPad photos recovery software to have a try. If i remember correctly, this software has two methods to restore your photos. One is recovering from your iTunes backup, another is recovering from your iPad directly.

It is worth to try if your photos are important.

I updated to OS X Mavericks and iPhoto 11 and my photos for the last 2 month disappeared. I have a Mac Mini.

On 10/25/2013 OS X on my Mac mini was updated to Mavericks and iPhoto was updated to iPhoto 11. Since then the photos in iPhoto from the last 2 months have disappeared. Has anyone had a similar complaint? Thank you. harck.

Since then the photos in iPhoto from the last 2 months have disappeared.
Just a hunch - the "last two month" sounds like an photo stream sync problem.
How did you import the photos from the last two month? Were they in the Photo Stream? Then enable your Photo Stream again in the Sytem Preferences iCloud pane and iPhoto Preferences iCloud tab. This option might have been disabled. If you did not download your recent photos automatically from from the stream, the photo stram must be disabled to show them.
Also, your "last import" event might be empty after the upgrade of the library. Try to sort your events differently, to bring the last event to the top of the list in "Events" view.

Using ipad1, why do my pictures in a new folder i just ceated are not in a good order? all my other older folders are in the right order but not the last one i synchronised

I never had this problem before. My photos are mixed in my new folder of my IPad1 with ios version 5.1.1
. Usually, they are in alphabetical order like in any usual folder, but not this time .I synchronised with ITunes with the usb connector. How can I put back in the right order my pictures? I was just told (by apple's help desk) that IPad IOS 5.1.1 sorts photos by the last date modified instead of by alphanumerical order. What a foolish idea? Is there something we can do about this? Thanks! Robert

all the pictures appear but can only be shown clicking in the Catalog Panel in LR, they are all included within the ¨all pictures¨ and in ¨ Previus import ¨ ... the previus import are all the photos i cannot see within folders ..
Let me see how can i show you a screen capture and send it, I think this would explain better the situation
Yes, when i click show in finder, it takes me to the HD and shows me the right folder the picture is in. The folders in the HD show the order and titles i defined on lightroom .. so the folders i defined in lightroom were registered correctly in the HD but are no longer shown in the folder panel in LR

Hi... I would like to purchase a Tablet Sony Xperia Z 2 10.1 (the last one of the Z series) and I was told that Adobe does not support Sony anymore.... I need to be able to open and read Adobe PDF files and I would like to know if this tablet can still use Flash Player...
Is there anyo who can help me with this? I asked in the shop and I was told "yes of course" , but when I contacted Sony directly I was advised to check with Adobe as apparently in the recent months Adobe and Sony haven't been getting along anymore...

You may be mixing up two entirely different Adobe products.
1. Adobe Flash Player. Needed to view web pages designed with Flash. Not needed to view PDF files. Not available for Android (not just Sony).
2. Adobe Reader. Reads PDF files. However, the Android can also read most PDF files without needing Adobe Reader.

Hello John...
You may have a Safari third party add on installed that was compatible with the previous version of Safari but not 5.1. Try troubleshooting > Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
FYI... this is a user to user forum. If you can't resolve the issue, information for contacting AppleCare here.

how do I do to use the same appleid on all my devices, I want to use the last one I have on my Ipad mini, do I deleta the one I have on my Iphone and reeinstall it with the Id I use on my Ipad..?

Hi john,
Yes, you would sign out of iTunes & App Store: Settings>iTunes & App Store, click on the Apple ID, click on Sign Out. Then sign back on with the new Apple ID. Also, if you have an iCloud account with the other Apple ID, you would delete that iCloud account, and then sign on with your new ID: Settings>iCloud>Delete Account.

I am using iPhone 4 from the last one year and went dead and got it replaced by paying Rs.12500/- to Nyasa Sion Koliwada Mumbai Service Provider but now again after 38days the problem has started, what do i do? Is this is the quality & service we boost?

I am using iPhone 4 from the last one year and went dead and got it replaced by paying Rs.12500/- to Nyasa Sion Koliwada Mumbai Service Provider but now again after 38days the problem has started, what do i do? Is this is the quality & service we boost? On visiting the store we get only one reply you may write to Apple directely. we have the similar kind of problem with iPad which is being used by my wife Mr.Neelam Vij and paid Rs.16000/- to get it replaced within a year & 6months use. so in totality we have paid Rs.28500/- + Rs. 3000/- diagnostic charges.
1. iPhone 4 , 32 GB Black with Sr. No. 88******A4T
2. iPad 2, 16GB White with Sr. No.DL*******KPH
Moreover, we have no information to contact whom. even the replace set has a warranty of only three month which further confirm that Apple itself is not confident wheather product will last after replacement for more then three month. Such kind of happening do not encourage anyone to recomend this product to anyone. Would appriciate a faster response to our problem if someone from Apple is going to read this email.
Thanks & Regards
A K Vij
