No thumbnails in LR3 import window

I no longer have any thumbnails in the import window for LR3.  The options to "Check All" & "Check None" are still there but with no thumbnails to reference...

Thanks for the suggestion, but I tried with that option checked and unchecked. In neither case was a higher-res thumbnail generated when I changed the thumbnail size using the slider. So far, Aperture insists on providing a thumbnail that is perhaps 150x150 and then resizing that thumbnail—pixellation and all—when the thumbnail size is increased.

  • Blurry Thumbnails in Import window on LR5

    LR-5 is showing blurred thumbnails in the Import window.  They look great when I click them open to large view.  Is there a fix for this problem? I'm using Windows 7.

    I have the same problem but it seems to be linked to whether you shoot in RAW or RAW+JPG. If you go for the later you get the thumbnail preview. For RAW only you get nothing. I'm assuming the thumbnail is only referencing the JPG.

  • Thumbnails on Import Window

    You know how, when you import images from your camera (Rebel XTi), thumbnail previews of those images show up on the import window?
    Well... I'm not sure what happened, but they don't show up anymore. I don't know if it's a software problem or if it's my camera. Or is it because I'm using Aperture on a MacBook...?
    Anyone know how to fix this?
    - Thanks.

    Firstly, I don't think the issue is a corrupt plist, but it's any easy thing to check.
    plists hold the application's user preferences and can be trashed with impunity, provided you know the settings (you'll have to reapply your preferences).
    Why plists get corrupt is beyond me, that they do is factual and seemingly more common that we would expect.
    If the plist is missing, Aperture will create a brand new default one. So...
    Make a note of your preferences in Aperture.
    Quit Aperture.
    In Finder, go to user/Library/Preferences/ and delete com.apple.Aperture.plist
    In Finder, go to your Aperture Library (usually in Pictures folder).
    Double-click the Aperture Library.aplibrary file to launch Aperture (this will set the library file in your preferences for you).
    Reapply your preferences.
    Try importing and see whether the thumbnails render.
    This issue has been mentioned before so you are not alone. Maybe do a search on "thumbnails"
    I would still try using Canon's Imagebrowser to migrate the RAW's from the camera to a folder on your disk. Then see if Aperture import sees the thumbnails successfully when you import them from disk.
    Best practice is to use a card reader .... no chance of batteries going flat part way through an import and no chance of dropping your SLR on the floor because it was perched precariously on the desk by the side of your display. Also card readers are faster, much faster if it is a firewire one ... and cheap.
    Best practice would also IMO be to copy from card reader to a folder on disk and then burn to DVD. This cuts down the data movements to a minimum before you get a stable archival backup. Then after burning to DVD, import from the folder into Aperture. It adds a few minutes up front, but you already have your backup finished.

  • Thumbnails in Import Window Empty for Nikon D90

    I recently acquired a Nikon D90 and it is working well with Aperture except in one regard. When I turn the camera on and the import window appears the thumbnails are always empty (just the dashed outline shows). I don't see this with my other cameras. I had hoped yesterdays update to Camera Raw support might fix it but it did not.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

  • No Video Images Appear In iMovie Import Window

    My Vixia hv 30 mini DV is connected and recognized, and when I choose to import video manually, and hit the iMovie Import button, the video plays on the camera screen but not in the iMovie import window on my iMac. Nor does the counter move, although a large message in the iMovie window says "importing". The camera's counter in the upper right hand corner of the window counts off, but not the counter next to the controls at the bottom of the window. A file name is created in the Event Library, but there is nothing in the file when I click it.
    I have tried importing segments of all sizes and lengths to see if there was an issue there but no video appears on the iMovie screen, and there is no message that thumbnails are being created.
    I have watched tutorials online to see if I am missing something but I have found no answers. I was able to import a one-minute segment automatically a few days ago when I first got the camera, but now Automatic does not work. It begins to import, with no images appearing in the iMovie import window and no movement in the counter, then after a few seconds the "Importing" message changes to "Stopped"
    In my 'Save To" window, it says I have "5.7GB free/25 min.)" on my Mac's HD.

    I found that this was due to my tape having been recorded on an older DV camcorder rather than an HDV. You'd think either iMovie or the Canon Vixia would simply tell you that in plain language, rather than give you the kind of cryptic meaningless message that the camera displays.
    If you have this problem, go into the camera menu and make sure the format —DV or HDV— matches the content on your tape.

  • PSE 11 will not make thumbnails for newly imported photos

    Running PSE 11 on Windows 7 64 bit. It was making and displaying thumbnails for imported photos fine until recently, but no longer does. Still displaying thumbnails for earlier photos. Windows displays thumbnails fine, and PSE shows the thumbnails during the import process but not in the organiser afterwards.
    I have tried:
    right click - update thumbnail
    Repair catalog (which identified that there are problems in the thumbnail cache, but doesn't fix it)
    Uninstall/reinstall
    Still not working.
    Any ideas?

    No, the orientation is not the issue, The first set of 4 imported videos were from a GoPro 3 camera, and the one that was lost doing an "update thumbnail" operation was also a GoPro3 fie.
    Just now I did another experiment, I chose to update thumbnail from a video file created with my Pentax WG-3 and it worked.
    I updated thumbnail on a horizontal and verticle video from my Galaxy S3, and now those are also gone with no thumbnail...
    So far the only one that actually works for me is the Pentax video, which is a MOV file. , the GoPro 3 and Galaxy are mp4 files, so it's possible that the mp4 format has something to do with it. This is very frustrating losing my thumbnails like this.... Luckily I have not deleted ver11 yet.
    I hope they repair this issue soon.
    Thanks for the help so far,

  • ACR import window position

    Hi - when I open ACR from Bridge the import window showing the selected file(s) opens as it should. My windows XP pro and PSCS3 are working for a good while already without problems. Starting a few days ago all the sudden this ACR window will open on my secondary monitor not on my primary monitor where it used to open.
    I was able to drag this window (always set to reduced window size) to the primary monitor but the setting apparently did not get stored and the next time I opened the window it was at the secondary monitor again. After a few times now the window even is locked in the full frame setting (or slightly larger placing the minimize and reduce buttons outside the monitor) and I can no longer reduce the window and move it.
    Unfortunate because I only have the primary monitor calibrated.
    Can I set or reset preferences for the position of the ACR window? I searched but did not find the settings. Bug or feature? :-P

    I use Bridge in partial window mode (not maximized, but covering almost all the monitor area of both monitors). I have it set up that I see the thumbnails of one selected folder in the right secondary screen and the detailed view of a selected image together with "explorer like" ("folders" and "metadata") overview of folders in the left primary display.
    When I open Camera Raw by double click on one image it opens ACR 4.41. It now covers the entire secondary monitor. It looks like full screen mode except it seems too large, just clipping the buttons on the right top to toggle full screen and reduced screen. I cannot grab the top of the ACR window to move it. ACR works fine I can use all settings.

  • I'm trying to import some Hi8 into FCPX via a Canon GL2.  Although the footage shows up in the import window, it says "Camera not controllable".  The manual import button does activate, but footage is not actually being imported.  Any ideas?  Thanks

    I'm trying to import Hi8 into FCPX via a Canon GL2.  Although the footage appears in the import window, it says camera not controllable.  The manual import buttons activate, but the footage is not actually importing.  Any ideas?  Thanks so much.

    What Tom said.
    Or you may be able to import using a different program - try with Quicktime Player, "New Movie Recording". If the camera appears as an option, it should work.

  • Preview of CR2 raw files on import window from camera

    Hi
    I have this problem with my Canon XTI. When I connect the camera to the computer and open the import dialog window, I can not see the previews of my CR2 raw files. But if I copy the CR2 files to he hard disk and try tho import from it, then previews are shown on the import window.
    Can anybody help me?

    Probably because the program is trying to write back a marker to the card as it "opens" the images for the preview and the camera won't let it.
    It's not a good idea to import images directly from the camera anyway. Card readers are really cheap - and they WILL let you see the previews.

  • IMovie '13: Import window does not open

    I can't get the Import Window to open. (Sure it worked the first time I tried)
    Anyone with same problem?
    Anyone with a possible solution?
    No matter if I press Import in the toolbar or use the menu (cmd I) the main window will dim, but the overlaying Import Window will not open.
    After that I can only quit the program. I can drag and drop movie files without problems.
    The only way the Import Window will open is to attach my camera. The Import Window will open automatically when iMovie sees the drive.
    I have tried to re-install iMovie and deleted preference files, but with no succes so far.

    I managed to locate the problem
    I have an Elgato EyeTV 610. It is an old DVB-C TV Tuner hooked up on Firewire.
    When I remove the EyeTV 610 from the Firewireport it works fine.
    As mentioned in my first posting I was able to have the import window pop up by attaching my camera.
    The workaround also works when pluggin in my iPhone (Import window pops up automatically)

  • .AVI Extension Not Showing Up In Import Window

    Hi everyone, this seems like a very peculiar problem.  The .AVI file extension has diasppeared from my File --> Import --> drop down menu.  Everything else is there, except the "All files" type thing... I will try renaming my files to another extension and see if it works.
    The files are NTSC DV Widescreen AVIs that I exported from Premiere...
    Attached is a screen shot of the import window
    thanks for your help,

    SOLVED
    had to type *.AVI in the file name box so that it would list all the AVI extensions
    yay

  • Aperture Import window

    With the Aperture import window open and a memory card in a reader, I have at top left two option. One is the select the computer itself as the source and the other is the memory card. If I select the computer, at the bottom of the window I get pane listing the various harddrives and all there subdirectories, but when I choose the memory card, this pane is no longer vailable. Is it possible to have this pane display so that I can see the folders on the meory card?
    I ask this because when a photographer is covering multiple rings at an event, it is faster to seperate the images inot their respective rings by choosing which folder to put them in than it is to change the file name which os what we currently. I provide staff with Nikon cameras at some events and if they are not familiar with Nikon, they struggle with the filename changing in a hurry, but selecting pre-made folders is easy.

    Is it possible to have this pane display so that I can see the folders on the meory card?
    No, you cannot show the memory card in the file chooser - I tried several things, like linking it to the Desktop, but aperture hides it.
    You could open the memery card however in the Finder; it will show on Desktop as an external disk, and then import by dragging from the Finder. Bt this way you will not be able to use Import presets directly while importing.
    Your only option would be to copy your folders on the card to backup folders on your hard drive and then import from there. This folder you will see in Aperture in the file chooser window at the bottom.

  • Exclude stills in import window Final Cut Pro X

    I export from a memory card removed from my camera which I use for both still RAW images and videos. Ther are always way more stills than videos and I would like a way to have the import window show only the videos. I use Aperture to import the still images.
    I suspect there is a simple setting somewhere to achieve that, but I haven't found it yet.
    Thanks for any guidance.

    In the Import window, switch to list view and in the columns click on File Type
