Option to import duplicates after import?

When LR says it has not imported files because they already exist in the catalog, it would be nice to have a button that says "import anyway."
On a related note, that window only shows a list of file names, which is not very user friendly. Nor does it show both locations.

Yes, understood. That is a great option most of the time, but sometimes you don't know what the duplicate situation it until after LR has chewed through the import. So it would be nice, gracious even, if LR presented the option when it notifies you of the offending duplicates.

  • I'm having trouble importing pictures from the internet....when I drag the picture to the icon, it gives me the option to import all duplicates. Even when I click "NO", it STILL imports every picture I have imported AGAIN, including the new one! WHY??

  • HT5260 No option to import iPhoto library to Aperture

    I have just upgraded to the latest versions of aperture and iphoto (on 6th July 2012) and upgraded both libraries as instructed.  Now I want to import my iphoto library into Aperture but when I selelct File>Import there is no specific option to import iPhoto library.  I've seen this can be greyed out on other posts but on my aperture it was not there at all as an option.
    I tried just import>library instead and selected the iphoto library.  Everything was imported without another dialogue box to avoid importing duplicates (of which there are 1000s).
    Can anyone help please?
    I've tried restarting by the way! I've also got all the latest updates via software update

    If you have the latest version of both (iPhoto version 9.3 and Aperature 3.3) then you have no need to import the iPhoto library into Aperature as both iPhoto and Aperature can share the same library (so you do not duplicate your storage)  --  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5260

  • I have the new macbook pro from late 2011. when i try plugging my cannon gl2 into the mac via firewire 800 it does not show up in iMovie as an option to import from. i even have gone into my settings on the camera and changed it to vcr.

    I have the new MacBook Pro from late 2011. "the one before the new ritina display" i have a cannon gl2 video camera which is mini dv. when i plug it into my mac via firwire 800 it does not show up in the iMovie. i have set the settings on the camera to vcr mode and changed it to av->dv out. when i click on the import from camera on imovie it doesnt even show my camera in it. it just gives me the option to import video from my facetime camera. the camera is turned on the wires are connected i know for fact that its a firewire and not a usb. i know what they each look like. i bought the firewire cable and it was marked down cause it was an opened and used item. would it be possible that it could be deffected and if that is not the reason what other options do i have?

    I would say that odds are high that you have a bad cable. Maybe that is why they returned it.
    I would suggest trying a different firewire cable.
    You can find Firewire cables inexpensively at monoprice.com. You need a 4 pin to 9 pin firewire cable.
    Here is a link.

    Other things to check:
    Is your camera plugged in to wall power (not to batteries only). Must be hooked to an AC power source to import.

  • Imovie media browser only has one option, "Mobile". other videos had option for medium and small. mobile option wont import into iDVD. other videos gave me the Medium option, why not this one?

    help! imovie media browser only has one option, "Mobile". other videos had option for medium and small. mobile option wont import into iDVD. other videos gave me the Medium option, why not this one? need answers ASAP!

    That is your answer then.
    Large is 960x540
    Medium is 640x480 (or 720x480)
    Mobile is probably 480x272.
    It is offering you the sizes that make sense given the size of your source material.
    As a trick, you might try this. In your project, put a short 640x480 clip in the project as the first clip of the project. Then keep the rest of the project as is. See if it will let you share now in Medium. It will not look as good, because there are not enough pixels to cover the Medium size, but it might work.

    Cannot load Photoshop Elements 10. 1st (of 3) disks only gives me option to import photos and videos, not to install. How can I install?

    Are you sure that:
    1. You have the correct disc for your operating system? You have both mac and windows versions on the discs. If you have a mac you want disc 3, not disc 1.
    2. PSE is not already installed?

  • I purchased creative lightroom presets. I see the zip file in my download file and I try to import to LR but it just keeps creating a bundle never giving me the option to import (greyed out). What am I doing wrong?

    I purchased creative lightroom presets. I see the zip file in my download file and I try to import to LR but it just keeps creating a bundle never giving me the option to import (greyed out). What am I doing wrong?

    Try unzipping the file first. I have no idea regarding your level of technical expertise so advanced apologies if this is really basic. A ZIP file is a compressed file containing one of more files within it. To access the files you will need to expand it. If you double-click on it first, it should open up for you. If it does not automatically expand, you can select the files and copy them to a new folder. The copy will unload them into an uncompressed form. Once they have been uncompressed, you should be able to import them.
    If the import is still giving you problems, go to your Preferences, click on the Presets tab and click the Show Presets Folder button. You can then copy your purchased presets into the folder shown. You will want to copy them to the User Presets subfolder.

    Why aren't my scanned photos showing up in iphoto? I have an HP scanner with the option to import directly to iphoto. It says "sending to destination" but it never gets to iphoto. I scanned hundreds of photos several months and it worked fine with the photos going directly into iphoto - now it won't work. Any suggestions?

    As the feature is part of your scanner set up nd not iPhoto, you'd need to ask the makers of that for help.

    @wws_911,
    This is a public web forum.  It is not Live Chat.  4 min intervals between posts is not the way to get help from this user-to-user forum.  You must allow at least 1 - 2 hours for some one who can help you to see your post and reply.  It's not uncommon to wait 8 or 12 hours before receiving an answer because the expert who can help you may be sleeping in their part of the world.
    Back to your question, which version of DW do you have?  It's under Help > About Dreamweaver.

  • No option to import configuration in local development (DC perspective)

    Hi All,
    I had deleted the local development folder and also deleted the.metadata folder  from my workspace to start configuring NWDS again to import new configurations .But now when i open my NWDS ,in Development Configurations perspective >>Local DCS  is coming empty .There is no option to import the configuration now.
    I am not authorize to uninstall NWDS and reinstall again .But can access the NWDS folders specific to me like workspace etc .
    i teied creating local development folder manually with default files but no success.
    Kindly guide me in solving this problem.
    Regards,
    Madhvika

    Hi Madhvika,
    You might not have deleted configurations in that way. There is an option in NWDS to delete the configurations. Let it be.   Now at least try to restore the files from Recycle Bin if possible.  If not possible, don't be panic. There are some ways.
    .metadata   you can get back if you can create new workspace.
    Open NWDS -> Preferences->Workbench -> Workspace
    Click on "Browse" button and  create  new folder e.g workspace1.
    Close the NWDS and open it.  You will  get the .metadata
    If you want to get the .dtc folder you can reinstall NWDS or you can log in as different user into the system and open the NWDS. Then you can get  .dtc folder and  .metadata    as well. If you have administrative privileges on your system, create a new user as administrator and log in with that user Id. Try as I said. Later copy and paste those folders into your user folder. 
    Regards,
    Siva

  • There is suppsoed to be an option to import Edge Animate objects into Dreamweaver. I have the latest

    There is suppsoed to be an option to import Edge Animate objects into Dreamweaver. I have the latest version and I do not see that option.
    Windows 8.
    DW CS6
    12.0 5808
    http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/using/import-edge-files.html
    http://layersmagazine.com/edge-animations-into-dreamweaver-cs6.html
    And I am a member of creative cloud

    Reading another post... here's what I had to do. Log into creative Cloud. >> Re-Download Edge >> It installs over the top of the existing Edge Animate install >> Then close everything >> go back into Creative Cloud >> Now it shows that Dreamweaver has an update. >> So I download the latest Dreamweaver>> Bam!
    My guess is there is no reason to have the DW 12.2 if the system doesn't think you have the latest Edge Animate.
    Silly.
    Thanks again.

  • Why did apple remove the combine tracks option in importing settings

    itunes for windows 7. APPLE took away the combine tracks option in import settings, why?

    I can't see all of the screen - are the tracks ordered by track number?  If so, then the "Join Tracks" option should be available to you.  If you follow this sequence of operations (with apologies if this seems tediously obvious ...):
    insert CD
    wait for track info to appear
    click on the heading of the column containing track numbers (normally this will be ordered sequentially, first to last, and the column will have a "^" symbol in the heading:
    The track order should now be reverse (highest to lowest), with a down arrow symbol in the heading
    Click on the column heading a second time - this will ensure that tracks really are in correct sequential order
    Now hold down SHIFT and select the first of the tracks you want to join followed by the last of the tracks you wish to join.  One set of tracks should now be highlighted.
    Click on Options
    If you're still not seeing the "Join Tracks" option then there may be an underlying issue that'll require further investigation.
