My canon t3i just stopped importing to lightroom

I have been using lightroom and photo suite 8 for almost a year, today lightroom does not recognize the files when i try to import?  I have two cameras both t3i and both are doing the same thing so i think it has something to do with lightroom?

“Cannot be read” means your DESTINATION folder in LR Import is not writable so no files were copied from the memory card to that location and LR cannot read them to perform the Import.
So check your destination folder at the top right of the Import panel.  Usually it has accidentally gotten changed to something unintended, but it could also be that the folder permissions are somehow not writable, anymore.

  • Just stops importing.

    Well I've filed quite a few complaints and notes on iPhoto 5 and it's endless cue of stupid problems and it continues to go on doing strange things.
    After my library hit about 12,000 photos... it just stopped importing altogether.
    Be it from a camera, a file, a drive.. whatever.
    With only 29 pics on my memory card, I tried importing them through iPhoto and after the last pic is viewed. It crashed. So I opened a new library with no photos whatsoever, and tried to import. It worked fine.
    I then transfered the pics to a folder on my desktop, then tried to import them into my original library .. and it crashes every single time.. even if I try just one picture.
    I've phoned customer support, I've spoken with just about everybody there is at Apple that you can reach. There have been no attempts to correct this truly buggy chunk of software. I know Apple staff cruize these pages so, I beg you... as a pro that needs your software to work because I've been married to its use for so long now... please take a look at this program... the posts on this page.. and come up with some fixes.

    Magoo:
    Can you give us some information regarding your setup: model, RAM, HD size and free space, system version, iPhoto version? It may be a free space issue but will wait for your response to get into possible solutions.
    For future posts you might consider filling out your profile as I have. That helps the responders get needed information right away.

  • I want to move my Aperture library to Lightroom.  All of my photos are on a hard drive.  Do I just click import on Lightroom or is there more to it?  All of my photos were shot in RAW.

    Originally, I moved the photos in each album one by one. The task was tedious but the photos did transfer.  Eventually, I ran out of disk space.  Now I have an 8 GB dual Thunderbolt hard drive.  This time, after speaking with Adobe, I was told to just "move the photos to Lightroom by clicking import."  Is that all there is to it?  All of my photos were shot in RAW.

    No, no, no.  Can't believe they still don't understand the plugin after all this time.  Adobe support is abysmal.  And you pay a subscription fee!
    The plug-in is a great alternative, but it does have issues.  And the most important steps for migration need to be done in Aperture, which may explain their skills gap.
    See this post for a partial explanation.
    How did your migration to Adobe Lightroom go?
    The key to NOT running out of disk space is to relocate your images from "managed" status to "referenced".  You can specify a better folder structure for your resulting Lightroom library.  Be aware that you will need some overhead, as your Aperture library (metadata) takes space, as your Lightroom catalog will, too.  But migrating "managed" Aperture images results in a full copy.
    There's other considerations for Aperture previews.  Although much smaller, all previews "should" be copied.  I've actually found that the plugin fails to copy a majority of previews.
    Lightroom will copy managed raw files, but will just point to referenced raw files.  If you choose to copy previews, it will copy all previews.  Not much to the plugin, but it helps to know to pre-tag images in Aperture, and make sure you do some sort of file-level compare to make sure everything is copied over.  I've made several posts on these issues under "Photo Enthusiast" in this forum.

  • My Canon MP620 just stopped printing text: it can print photos etc but when I send a word document (with a picture) it only prints the picture. Any ideas?

    Hi Everyone:
    I have a  Canon MP620 printer connected directly into my Airport base station. So far it has worked perfectly - I can print any type of document over the network from my MacBook Pro.
    Yesterday something weird happened. I have a resumé (as a word document) I was always printing but this time all that was printed was a photo and no text. I did a print preview and it looked fine. I converted to PDF and nothing was printed. I then created a brand new word document and again nothing was printed. I have no problem with images but for some strange reason no text  can be printed. All that happens is that the paper goes through and comes out blank.
    Any ideas?????
    Thanks a lot in advace!

    Hi,
    Tried all the cleaning programmes and it still will not print...I am lost.

  • RAW files from Canon 5D won't import to Lightroom

    I get an error message saying Lightroom doesn't recognise the .CR2 RAW file format. What am I doing wrong?

    You pay your money to Adobe!  The only free updates are the so-called dot changes.  To get from 3.x to 4.x you have to pay.  You could start here, or in your country equivalent:

  • Importing problems: clips skip and then stop importing

    If you go into iMovie Help section, there is a troubleshooting section where this exact question is asked and "answered." However, the answer that they gave was not adequate and did not solve my problem.
    This is what happened-I was importing and all of a sudden i got to a part where it just starts to skip. It keeps skipping for a few seconds and then just stops importing. My camera is a MiniDV and the tape i used to record things is brand new. I also put in another tape that i had successfully imported in the past in my camera to see if the brand new tape was somehow defective, but the same thing happened with the old tape that i put in to import. Could it be the connecter? But if something was wrong with that wouldn't my computer not recognize my camera at all?
    Help me please! I want to finish the movie I'm making

    Hi
    Two most common origins to this:
    • You have stopped recording - rewind view and may be even took out the tape.
    = TimeCode on tape is boroken and needs to be mended
    • You have used LP-mode while recording. Don't and even more so if the recording
    was done on another Camera. Then LP-mode most often doesn't work. To sencitive.
    First situation:
    • Try to turn off in iMovie preferences menu: Import as individual clips.
    You might get the material in even if it is as a full block that needs to be cut up
    • Alt. If You got two Cameras + one FireWire 4-pin to 4-pin Cable
    Firts record one tape with just anything eg a wall (This will not be kept)
    Copy the problem tape onto the prerecorded one (with a complete TimeCode)
    Second sit:
    • Get the Original Camera and then
    • Try to turn off in iMovie preferences menu: Import as individual clips.
    You might get the material in even if it is as a full block that needs to be cut up
    • If in LP-mode (90min on a 60min tape) You also get sync problems so start with
    Clip on Timeline then Advance mebu and down to Exract Audio.
    Might help.

  • IMovie stops importing after 7 seconds or so

    I am trying to import some video that is being passed thru my digital camcorder from a dvd. I have done this before several months ago but today it stops importing after about 7 seconds. I don't have FileVault turned on so that isn't the problem. Everything looks fine on my camcorder screen but iMovie just stops importing. HELP! Any ideas? Thanks!

    Well, guess what? I took the minidv tape out and now it has decided to work.

  • Lightroom 4 suddenly stopped importing most images

    Hi All,
    I am using an up-to-date version of Lightroom 4.2 on Mac OSX v10.7.5 with 16 GB DDR3 RAM, a 2.93 GHz processor, and about 250 GB free space on my hard drive. I shoot RAW files with a Canon, and always set my import to convert to DNG.
    I have been using LR since version 1, and I've never had trouble importing. Two days ago, however, Lightroom stopped importing my images. As I often do with big shoots, I began the import process before heading to bed; when I checked the status in the morning, the screen still read "Importing files..." with no images actually imported. I tried it again immediately, same result. I shut everything down, rebooted the machine, and tried again... same thing.
    My process in detail: Connect my camera to my iMac via USB... open import dialogue... check images to import... hit "import." I then get the "Importing files..." message in the middle of the screen, plus the "Convert to Digital Negative and Import" message in the upper left, with the progress bar showing 1/3 filled. Nothing changes from this point, even after 60 minutes. So I click the "X" box in the upper left to end the import. After that, the "Import.." button in the lower left is grayed out, and I cannot try to initiate another import. Hmmm. So I close Lightroom and try again. That's the cycle I'm experiencing.
    After repeatedly trying to import about 400-500 images here, I decided to just try a few. I made a few attempts, and eventually I was able to bring 4-5 images in. That gave me hope, but the next time I tried, no luck. So I began trying all sorts of combinations... rebooting LR, turning off the camera, then restarting everything again. Out of maybe 25 attempts, I was able to pull images in 4 times. Strange and seemingly random.
    Any advice for out there? Should I try reinstalling Lightroom? Would appreciate any tips or solutions.
    Thanks,
    Nick

    Is this a camera that has worked previously, or a new model?
    Also - how are you importing? Via USB cable from the camera or using a card reader?

  • FCPX importing canon t3i, FCPX doesn't recognize the structure?

    I'm inserting my card from my new canon t3i, FCPX doesn't recognize the card?

    I have an idea.
    Create a folder on you desk top. Give it a name that ties it to images and video you shot using the t3i plus the date of the shoot. Connect your USB to your camera. Open Image capture. Turn t3i on. You should be able to transfer both images and video to the folder on your desktop via image capture. Check the folder to make sure your images and videos are there. Then turn off your camera. (If you get a camera image on your desktop, you do not need to use image capture.) Open F.C.P.X. Under file-Import-file, then under import files-look for your Desktop-then the folder with with stills & video-open folder-then highlight the video files, then import.
    I've been doing this, using flash memory cards, in dual mode cameras. It has worked for me with out a problem.
    Remember, this is just an idea.
    Hope it works for you.

  • Lightroom 5 (Mac) stops importing.

    Lightroom stops importing, the progress bar stops moving. After quiting Lightroom and trying to sync the folder it happens again. There are no strange fileformats in the folder, just straight JPG and XMP. This is pretty annoying - such a basic functionality should work out of the box.
    I've read that the german character "ß" could be the cause (so every file tagged with German Street Names in it will stop LR from working! Excellent.) – and the release candidate 5.2 should fix the issue. BUT: I am not very fond of installing a release candidate; what happens later, when the final version is released? Does the automatic update function its job? Or do i have to fiddle once more to get the final version working?
    Looking forward to helpful suggestions, Sincerely
    Niko

    Another possible cause is hardware trouble: Your card reader or USB Cable/USB Port are bad
    Normally with Lightroom, a release candidate can be replaced with the final version simply by installing the final version, there is no other effort needed.

  • My canon t3i dslr camera automatically stops recording after about 10 sec. using a class 10 card.

    Hello,
    My canon t3i dslr camera stops recording automatically after about 10 sec. the manual said to use an SD card of class 6 or higher. I am using a class 10 and I have been able to record long videos in the past and all of a sudden the camera stops recording automatically after about 10 sec. Does anyone know why?  thanks

    Hi Rockinruby.
    We get this a lot here.  It turns out that even though the card is labeled as a Class 10 card, the most common problem when this occurs... is that it's still a defective card.
    Sandisk is a good company and they generally make solid products.  But there are two risks... (1) even Sandisk will occasionally have a bad card or a card that fails prematurely, and (2) it's exceptionally easy to create a forgery (if you peel the labels off these cards, they all look identical.)  
    When I buy cards (and I also buy Sandisk and/or Lexar cards), I'm careful to buy cards which well-exceed the specs necessary ... but I'm also careful to buy the cards only from reputable dealers.
    If you do a search, you'll find LOTS of articles about fake cards with tips on how to avoid them or how to spot them.
    But the bottom line ... at the end of the day you just want your problem solved.  If the card is bad, then there's nothing that you  would be able to do to the camera to make the problem away.  You would really need to replace that card.
    The issue that you are having is somewhat common... there are lots of threads on this.  But the majority of these are actually solved simply by replacing the card with a known good card and without making any changes to the camera.  
    It's not a guarantee that it's the card... but it's the most common cause.

    Please do not post questions more than once. It makes it difficult for you as well as those who will try to answer. I don't have an answer for you. However:
    What operating system?
    What version of Lightroom?
    How much RAM?
    Did you install anything new?
    What version of Camera Raw are using in Photoshop CS5?
    If you can provide more details, it might make it easier for someone to provide you with an answer.
