Moving images

I am combining several RH7 sites (there were sub sites for a
merged project). I want to have all my images in one folder. When I
import the projects, RH inserts them in a sub folder to my images
folder. I need to move them all into the Image folder and not the
subfolder. I can move them one at a time through the Project
Manager. However, within the project manager, I cannot select
multiple images, so it has to be done one at a time. I can do a
mass move using Window's Explorer, but then all the references
would be lost.
How can I move a large quantity of images within RH7 to
preserve linking references in one mass move?

One at a time. :-)
Sorry but you have to do that to keep the links. As you drag
the image up (or down) you can release the mouse once it is over
any of the images, you don't have to locate the folder. Is that
clear? It can be done quickly. Suggest you hit save every so often
too.

  • Moving images doesnt update links in topics

    RH8 HTML.
    I moved some images around, renamed the folder containing them (all in RH). But the topics that use those images still hold the old link, and wont update to where the folder where the iamges are stored so all the links are dead. Is there a way to force a re-scan or something to make the topics look for the new location of the images, or do I have to change the paths manually in each topic where the links are broken?
    I would have thought that when moving images in RH it would update paths in topics where those images are used so that it wouldnt have to be done manually.

    Obviously those images were showing in Project Manager before you started moving the topics around, RH has always reworked the path reliably. It does not if you move them in Windows Explorer but you say that is not what you did.
    If you right click an image and select Properties,  you can see Used In. Is that blank?
    Create a test project and create some folders and topics with images. Move things around and check it all works as it should.
    Post back how that goes.

  • Lr3.5 windows_7 64bit: Problem moving images in Library collections

    I am ruhnning Windows &7 Pro, 64 bit and I'm experiencing inconsistant behavior in Lightroom 3.5 with regard to moving images within collections.  When I try to move an image, to place it in the order inwhich I would like view the sequence, the image is placed at the end of the sequence no matter where I place it initially.  I've tried the filmstrip view and the grid view and it happens in both.  I recall doing this without problems previously however it was in the imported Library not a collection, but why would this be different??  One still needs to reorder images in collections.  I've made certian to change the "sort" option to user each time I've tried to do this.  Any Ideas?  Thanks

    'User order' has some surprises. When it works it can be difficult to appreciate what differs from when it doesn't. Julianne Kost video is a good starting point on what will and won't work with a little on why  http://tv.adobe.com/watch/the-complete-picture-with-julieanne-kost/custom-sort-orders/  . If collections and several folders are involved the work round to meet your goals may include a combination of moves, copies and renaming files (export and re-import even) to create an alphanumeric sort. The 'dumping' at the end of the sequence manifests itself in other situations related to the order status in force at the point when you start moving files.  See http://forums.adobe.com/message/4026355#4026355 which came down to making sure the sort starting point is appropriate 
    Good luck 

  • Moving images between folders is SLOW

    Moving images from one folder to another seems unusually slow, even if the folders are on the same hard drive.
    Additionally, the thumbnails stay in the original folder until I restart LR. I vaguely recall something that caused the thumbnails to update very slowly, but right now I find it's quicker to just quit LR and restart it.
    Special circumstances that might be contributing to the problem -
    Source Folder -
    18 GB of images from a wedding shoot. 6 multi GB cards, each with a few subfolders of their own.
    I'm trying to move about 500 images at a time.
    Destination Folders -
    Nothing special there other than trying to get the 500 images into them in one move.

    Turn on curmudgeon switch -
    No, I won't find it is slow because LR is checking files and making sure all is okay. Other than a slowly moving progress bar, I have no idea what it is doing. There is only a hint of something being checked is that sometimes the progress bar moves slowly for about 1/3 of the length and then relatively quickly the rest of the way, which is when I hear the hard drive becoming more active. (Maybe that's the checking / moving phases.)
    Turn off curmudgeon switch -
    Now it makes sense that LR needs to make sure that a file of the same name does not exist in the destination folder. Maybe it needs to check database integrity in some way while moving the files. Maybe the undo-ability of the process causes need for special care.
    My guess is that some of the database code for whatever it is doing is written poorly.
    And there is still the problem that the thumbnails do not get refreshed. They are still visible in the old folder. How do I work around that?

  • Zoom for Closeup in Moving Image?

    Okay, what I am asking is probably impossible, at least in iMovie 3.0.3 which I am currently using, but I'd like to ask anyway and learn "how" impossible.
    Say I have a moving (video) image (in iMovie) showing several people, and I want to have just one be the focus but retain it as a moving image only make it into a closeup instead of a group image.
    I know in the "old days" this was perfectly possible with a device called a "film enlarger." But these aren't the old days and this isn't film, so:
    1. Is this now way easier, by selecting an image and manipulating by cropping the edges with little grabby-handles I just haven't been able to find? Or
    2. Is what I am asking out of the question and utterly impossible?
    3. Is it impossible in iMovie 3.0.3 but possible in some other version, and, if so, how highly-numbered a version would I need to make it possible?
    Just figured I'd ask, thanks.

    A video file only has so many pixels. Trying to zoom will reduce the number of pixels, giving you a blurry image.
    There are plug-ins for this, but don't expect too much:

  • Moving Images Inside of Stack (not using context menu)

    I have not had success moving images around in an expanded stack using the drag-and-drop functionality of the mouse. When I do try to drag an image within the stack, I get an outline of an image but when I try to drop to a new location within the stack, nothing happens.
    Using the context menu to re-order a bunch of images is impractical.
    What am I doing wrong?

    I don't believe you are doing anything wrong. It appears the only thing you can do by mouse to a expanded stack, besides close it to the stack, is click the white box with the, i.e. [4 of 10] to make that image the top image.

  • Need to make a 20 second HD clip with a moving image background and text thats flies in...

    Hi all im quite new to after effects and need to make a 20 second HD clip with a moving image background and text thats flies in. I also need to create a basic cross image. If anyone could suggest the best way to go about doing this it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance

    Thank you for both of your reponses and I will try and be clearer:
    what I want to acheive is a HD motion graphic of text which will almost spin onto the screen letter my letter and then a become static word. Behind this I would like to place a moving image clip.
    By 'basic cross image' what im looking to do is use a cruifix shape instead of a 't' on the text.
    I hope this makes sense and thanks again!

  • Animated gif not moving, image.animation_mode already set to Normal

    ''dupe of - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/932846 - locking''
    With image.animation_mode already set to Normal, animated gif are not moving, it seems only the first frame is downloaded. I tried downloading the image, it also seems that only the first frame is downloaded. Then I disabled all extensions, the problem persists. Then I use a whole new profile, there seems to be no problem.
    The question is, is there another hidden settings in firefox which cause this trouble? I do not want to start a new profile just because of this. (It also happens in Firefox version 13)

    Do you see the animation if you check the image in Tools > Page Info > Media or open the image directly in a tab?
    Some security software (firewall) can block animated images and send a normal image instead, so can try to check the advanced settings for Firefox in the firewall if the problem isn't in Firefox.

  • Moving images from one library to another; or how to have 2 libraries open at the same time in Aperture 2

    This may be something easy but for some reason I am having a hard time figuring this out. Basically this is the situation: I have a library on my MBP hd that I import pictures to when I am not hooked up to my external hd for the time being. The main library is of course on the external 2tb drive. How do I have 2 libraries open so that I can essentially drag and drop the pictures from one library to another? It would basically be like moving files from one project to another. Thanks for any help!

    Always keep a backup of your original images, before you delete them. I make a backup right form the card, before I even import them to Aperture.
    How are your images stored right now? Are the referenced or managed? On your big volume I'd consolidate the newly imported images, to be sure they are really inside the Aperture library before I delete any images outside the library.
    but they have the little yellow triangle caution symbol on them and I can see them but not really edit them
    That is a very typical problem, when you imported your images as referenced images then somehow delete or move the original master image files, that are stored outside the Aperture library.
    Do you still have the original masters of the images with the yellow triangle that you cannot edit? In Aperture 3 you can point Aperture to the location of the master image file "File >Locate referenced image" - probably Aperture 2 has a similar command to let you reconnect your masters, if you still have them. Look into the manual.

  • Moving images/catalogue from daughter to main catalog - Question and help requested on flow

    All,
    I have been using LR since 1.0 and now on 2.5 on a PC (Vista & Windows 7)
    My picture management work-flow
    I pull-in photos onto laptop which has a small catalog of 2009 images and usually only 6000 in (Nefs D300/D70) (Daughter catalog)
    On laptop I keyword etc and prepare photos.
    Once my hard drive (250GB) gets about 2/3 full I move 10-20 folders (I store images by shooting date) to a "master" hard drive (1TB) using the freeware "Syncback".
    I back up catalog at this point.
    Also moving the images to the 1TB means those photos are now going into my Main catalog, and I export the catalog of images that I transfered above and import that intot he main catalog that sort of works
    Now question(s) come(s)
    I lose in the 2009 catalog the link to the images once they have been moved by sync back to the 1TB driveand have to manually reconnect within lightroom.
    I am sure there is a better way yo do this, is there and can anyone help me -
    Can I drag and drop in the library mode in the "folder LH view" the images from the local (c) drive to the 1TB drive.  I haven't tried this (I'm a coward)
    If I eschew the use of Sync back and then export the catalog and images from the Daughter catalog, how can I make sure when I import them into the Main catalog that the images are stored on the 1TB drive correctly (Images/yyyy-mm-dd)?
    Is this handled through the image import dialog when moving the exported catalog into the Main one ?
    I hope this is understandable, as I say I have been a little timid with these steps
    Many many thanks in advance for help and pointers
    Simon Leppard

    When you import a catalog, the Import Dialog will come up. Click copy to new location and Import. Lightroom will import using the existing folder structure as is.

  • Problem Moving Images Between Folders In Bridge (Windows 7 Professional)

    I have just bought a new computer with Windows 7 installed. I now also have Adobe CS5 Design Premium installed.
    When I try to MOVE or DRAG and DROP an image from one folder to another using Adobe Bridge I get the following error message:
    "The operation cannot be completed because you don't have sufficient permissions"
    When I try the same thing in Windows Explorer it tells me that I need Administrator Permission. I click OK and it works in that programme.I am actually the Administrator
    Can anybody tell me how I can configure Bridge to undertake this task please.
    Many thanks in anticipation
    Adrian 

    Dear friends
    To my great relief I have now sorted this issue and offer the following as the Correct Answer. My sincere and grateful thanks go to Curt and Yammer, above, who have helped me so much in sorting this Windows 7 issue which is clearly very relevant to Bridge users also. Any slowness to grasp what they have been saying is down to me!
    The key to solving this issue lies is understanding that in terms of Windows 7 Security, every internal or external hard drive, plus folders, sub-folders and files thereon has an OWNER. Also each OWNER has a certain level of PERMISSION to do things such as moving files to a different folder, deleting or re-naming them etc. If you try to do things that you don't currently have Permission to do, that is when you get an ‘Access Denied’ error message. Also your system has an Admistrator or Administrators and at the outset you need to ensure through the Control Panel that you are listed as one of them. .
    If, like me, you didn't realise these things, (and why would you if Microsoft or your computer or hard drive suppliers couldn't be bothered to really make sure you knew about them), then trying to fathom the ‘Access Denied’ problem becomes a stressful and frustrating nightmare as I can testify having spent a week at it!
    The steps that I took to resolve the issue and which I believe now constitute the 'Correct Answer' are as follows:
    First make sure that you have Administrator rights on your system via the Control Panel
    Next ‘right click’ on the Drive whose files you want to gain full access to, for example the drive that your pictures are stored on, and click on 'Properties'.
    Under the Security tab you will see a list of Groups and Users on this drive and the Permissions that they have to do things.
    Before doing anything to edit these Permissions, first click on the Advanced button. This opens another window with a tab showing the Owner of this drive.
    Click on the Owner tab and if you are not already listed as the owner, make yourself the owner by selecting your name from the list. I believe it should appear there if you are an admistrator or user. (In my case at this stage the owner was initially shown as an obscure string of numbers and letters which I believe identified the drive when it was connected to the lap top I was using before I upgraded my machine)
    Now be sure to check the box that says "Replace Owner on Subcontainers and Objects" and the click Apply. On completion of this step, the drive in question and all the folders, subfolders and files thereon should now be 'owned' by you. You could check this out by right clicking on a particular folder then clicking Properties > Security > Advanced > Owner. Your name should appear. So far so simples!
    Now go back to the Security Tab for your drive (Step 2 / 3 above) and look at the Permissions you currently have. Your aim now is to allow yourself 'Full Control.' If you don’t currently have this level of permission click Edit, select your name on the list, check ‘Full Control’ and 'Apply' the change.
    I think I'm right in saying that at this point whilst still working in the Drive directory you are now given the option of ticking boxes which allow you to, in effect, cascade the permission you have just granted yourself to all the files and folders on that drive. Tick the box to allow this and Windows should then take care of the rest.If I'm not quite correct here then in my particular case, for example, all my images were stored on my external drive. The top level, or 'parent' folder in which all my pictures could be found was the 'My Pictures' folder and I had created a number of folders and subfolders ('child ' folders) within that folder. The permissions I gave to the Parent folder – My Pictures – were cascaded down through the Child folders.
    On completion of the above step I tested the result in Windows Explorer by dragging a few files back and forth between folders and it now worked perfectly - I was now able to move / delete / rename etc all files without now getting the dreaded access denied message. What a sense of relief! This meant that I could now open Bridge normally rather than having to right click it and 'Run As Admistrator' - albeit that is a very useful thing to do until you get the problem sorted as described.
    Somebody said to me the other night that when you buy a car you buy it to enjoy the drive, not to have to tinker with the engine. Microsoft and companies that supply and install Windows 7 on new computers please take note!
