Photos indicated in import dialogue as previously imported are not found in catalogue

Hey there,
I have a photo that I imported recently.  When I search my catalogue for the original NEF file, Lightroom tells me no such photo exists (the find function finds no hits).  So when I try to reimport the photo, lightroom grays out the photo in the import dialogue window, telling me that that photo already exists in the catalogue.  Though it apparently exists in the catalogue, why can't lightroom locate it? Why can't I view it?
Secondly, if I import photos the same way every time (import--copy--original NEF files into catalogue as originals, not as dng), why do XMP files irregularly accompany some files?
Thanks

Hey Hal,
Thanks for the tip.  Unfortunately my problem is not an issue with stacking.  I'll try to clarify a bit more.  I have a file (_DSC9805.nef) and its photoshop edited '.TIF' version imported to and saved onto an external hardrive.  When I search for the files, they appear in my macintosh finder directory.  In lightroom, however, the photo doesn't appear--neither when I search for it by sorting photos by capture time, nor when I explicitly search the photo's exact file name; lightroom tells me "no photos mach the filter."  In the case that lightroom lost the photo from the catalogue, I tried reimporting the photo.  This didn't work because lightroom won't allow me to import the photo; the thumbnail is grayed out because the photo file is purportedly already in lightroom.  Could my version of lightroom have a bug or an update failure that perturbes the catalogue like this?  It's like lightroom doesn't recognize it's own photo.  It doesn't even go so far as to indicate a missing photo with a question mark.  It's just not there except for when I try to reimport.  I'm 100% certain I've not made a personal error in my search querries and such, as i've done the search a number of times.  The photo shows up in the macintosh finder, but not the LR catalogue after importing...  Any other ideas or thoughts?
Thanks

  • My imports are not showing up in Photos or Events

    My imports are not showing up in Photos or Events.  The only place I can see them is in the "Last Import" folder.  When I try to re-import them it pops up the Duplicate warning which means they are in the library but not showing up.  Any ideas?

    If they are in last import then they should be there - check the date on one of the photos in last import and look for that date in your library - last import, photos and events are simply different ways of viewing the same photos - if they are there in one view they are there in all views - somewhere
    Select a pic in Last Import and Right-Click on it. Choose 'Show Event' from the menu. This will bring you to the Event containing the photo.
    If the photo is in Last Import, then the photo is in the Library somewhere,  just not where you expect it to be. Usual causes: the date on your camera is wrong, and so the date on the photo is wrong, or the sorting of the Events has changed (View Menu -> Sort Events)

  • Imported files not found

    Hello,
      I am trying to set up Audtion for my students to practice on.  I have loaded the "Sky Cell Tel" files from the Audition "Classroom in a Book."  This is what I have done:
    1. I copied the files from the CD to a folder created specifically for the class using copy/paste in My Computer. I do this so we aren't working with files off the CD, but rather permanently on the harddrive. The files copy over and are  present. A check of the properties show the full file content is present. They also play back in Windows Media Player.
    2. I launch Audition. I click on File, Import and direct the import to the Sky Cell Tel files in the the folder I put them in. The files load into the "Files" tab. I test the files and they all play in Audition using the play button in the files tab.  To give my students a "start from scratch" approach I do not load any files into the timeline.  I save the Session As ... and close Audition.
    3. I then re-open Audition and then open the previously saved Session.  When I do the files that I had previously imported are not present in the Files tab.  Where are they???  I am expecting the saved Session to show the imported files as any other editing program I have used.  Note, if I use a file in the timeline..., THEN it shows in the File tab upon reopening  the saved Session. But files not used in the timeline do not show in the Files tab.
    I think my frustration in obvious.  I  insure the files are permanently on the harddrive. I Import the files. I save the Session. Latter, upon having a student re-open the Session the imported files are not found. Embarrassing and frustrating.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks, Tom

    I presume we're talking about AA3 here. Yes, a file doesn't get associated with a session until it has actually been used in it - it's always been like that. Normally this isn't an issue (or if it is, nobody's ever mentioned it here before), but I can sort-of understand your frustration. My take on giving students a real-life experience in this situation might perhaps involve a little chat with your network manager, depending upon how you've got your network organised. Give each student their own file storage area that they have to log into, and put copies of the files in each of them, and get them to have the complete experience by loading the files themselves. They'll soon find out what happens to files they don't use...
    I think that the issue with saving sessions having unused files in the file window is that the way the .xml is structured, you only get entries which have time stamps on them. If a file isn't used, then it's not associated with any time stamps and is regarded as not part of the session at save time. It's completely logical, I'm afraid - although frustrating for you!

  • Compilation Error for import classes not found in generated Proxy Class

    Hi,
    We are generating java classes for the COM dll using JCOM com2java compiler.
    We are getting a compilation error for import class not found when compiling the
    generated Proxy java source code. It can't find the com.bea.jcom.Dispatch class that
    the generated Proxy java source code extends. It also can't find com.bea.jcom.Variant
    or com.bea.jcom.Param. These are interfaces or data types or classes used by COM
    library.
    I added weblogic.jar to my class path and the only Dispatch class i found inside
    the weblogic.jar is com.linar.jintegra.Dispatch;
    We have com objects for which we want to develop an EJB client to interface with
    the COM object using JCOM with Native Mode disabled.
    Any help on the compilation error..I tried changing the extends for Dispatch to com.linar.jintegra.Dispatch
    but the other errors are still there.
    To begin with, I think the generated code should not refer to any of the COM data
    types.
    Any help please.
    Thank you in advance,

    Hi,
    I resolved the other errors by changing all references from com.bea.jcom.Variant
    etc to com.linar.jintegra.class name..all were present under the com.linar.jintegra
    package.
    Thank you all anyways,

  • Help!!! the app Iphoto is closed marking a erros. I go back and open the application and are not photos. How can I recover them? Are not in the image folder.

    I was editing my photos and adding them to a album and suddenly the app is closed marking a erros. I go back and open the application and are not photos. How can I recover them? Are not in the image folder.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

    I just updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 7.1. The apps I had previously installed are not showing on the screen. They are located in App Store icon. How do I move the icons so they are showing on the screen.

    You can move apps around in iOS 7 the same as iOS 6. Press an app icon until you see it wiggle; then drag it to where ever you want it to be. Drag it onto another app to create a folder with the two apps. Tap the Home button to stop the wiggle.

    I have found that at least 3 music videos that I had previously purchased are not available in my I-tunes music video list.  I paid for them over a year ago, why are they not accessible, and why did they just disappear from my lists?

    Have you deleted anything from your iTunes library ? Have you checked to see if they are still on your computer, but not listed in your iTunes library ?
    If not then do they show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage for redownloading ? If they don't show there and others do and they are still in your country's store, then check to see if they are hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    If they are no longer in your store for redownloading (or you aren't in a country where music videos can be redownloaded) then you will need to copy them back from your backup of your library/downloads.

    If you want help you’ll need to give us more information. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • HT1338 I have a problem with the aspect ratio of photos as they appear on iPhoto.  They are not correct.  On the original photo people were fat and squat.  I tried rotating and they became long and narrow.  Neither correct.

    Sounds more like a problem with your Display Resolution than iPhoto.

  • Post import of 10g Website archive, resources are not found in path

    Hi All,
    I am trying to import WCM sample site into newly installed 11gR1 (11.1.1.7.0) using site studio back up and restore utility.
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/webcenter/content/wcm-sample-site-131561.zip
    Post importing the site, when i access the pages i could see that images and other resources are not rendering as paths for images could not be resolved.
    For eg: the logo image. site is looking for the image at the following path.
    /cs/groups/public/documents/wcmwebasset/oracle_logo_15h.png
    Where as post import this image is found inside
    cs\weblayout\groups\public\documents\wcmwebasset\x2xv\z29f\~edisp\oracle_logo_15h.png
    How can we over come such problems?
    To give you a a bigger picture, I am working on a POC to migrate a site from 10g to 11g. What is the good startegy to adopt. Right now i am trying to do the following.
    1) Install 11g R1 install.
    2) Use folder_g as network interface.
    2) Export the website from 10g ( I am sure this could be split into multiple steps)
    3) Import it into 11g
    5) Use the migration utility to move folder interface from folder_g to framework folders.
    I did not go for inplace upgrade primarily because customer wants to retain the 10g Install for some more time and did not want to corrupt the existing install.
    I appreciate any help in this regard.
    Thanks in advance,
    Seshan K.

    Hi Seshan ,
    You are seeing the new path for the files because of dispersion rule principle in UCM 11g onwards (which is by default set for file store provider) . This behavior can be changed by the following steps :
    1. Check whats the default rule you should navigate to Administration - admin Applets - Configuration Manager - select FileStorage field - Edit and check whats the value set in Default parameter .
    It should be DispByContentId
    2. Remove dispersion rule from the weblayout / web / vault paths from Administration - Providers - Default File Store  - <FSP Rule > - Edit .
    3. Update - Update
    Before starting with the above action items , you should run a full export archive from the target server (11g) and select the option "Delete contents after successful export" . This will clear the server and it will be a completely clean instance .
    Then after the changes to File store provider is completed , server restarted , import the archive created and then it will be with the same path as seen in 10g instance.

  • I am scanning printed photos into iPhoto as jpeg files but they are not showing as jpegs and I can't move them to another document - any ideas??

    Ultimately, I am using these photos in a document I am writing and for some reason, some of the photos I have scanned in to iPhoto are not showing as jpeg files . . . the file type is blank and when I try to move them, I get a circle with a slash through it indicating NO instead of the green circle with a + indicating that the photo can be moved and dropped elsewhere.  I am using an Epson scanner and am scanning as jpeg images.  I also have an option to scan as a jpeg2000 image but am not sure of the difference in the files so continue to scan as just jpeg.  Does anybody have an idea as to  why these particular files are scanning in as jpegs but apparently there is something not registering correctly.  Could it be that they were scanned without doing an overview scan first?  I know it can't be that simple . . any help would be appreciated. 

    What scanner format settings dis you use?  Are these color photos? If they are B/W did you scan as grayscale images?  That could be the problem.  
    Are you able to open them with Preview?  If so do a Save As, select full quality and save as a jpeg with a new file name.  See if that file will import and work as intended.
