RAW+jpeg+tif+psd all same name import solution found  !!!!!!

Pardon the fact that this reiterates information now part of other threads, but this is an issue of make or break proportions for some users--it certainly was for me. And it needs prominent clarification
So I decided to give itits own thread! I had written off LR for production work when the word got out that the same name solution was only partial in 1.1. I needed to see archived folders with same named sets of RAW, tif, jpeg, and psd images ( or combnations thereof). There is a solution to getting these into LR:
Jim Burgess found that if you import a newly made folder that has a RAW, tif, jpeg, and psd with the same name, it will bring them all in side by side.
I had at first found that none of my existing folders in the db could be refreshed from the INSIDE and do that--all that got brought in was the jpeg to join the RAW of the same name already in there!
After learning of Jim's success, I then deleted a folder that was already in the db that had all four same name but different format files in it with only the RAW showing. I then reimported that folder and it saw all the files with the same name (all four formats-RAW,tif,jpeg, and psd) and ingested them.
Why it can't be refresed from the inside is a mystery to me--or I just haven't discovered any way to do it, and I have tried synchronize folder and reimport repeatedly--neither work. Looks like one has to dump the folder and then import it afresh to get them all--but that for sure will do it! Whoopoeee!
It does mean that if new file formatted images with the same name get added from outside LR to a folder already in LR with the RAW in there, that you will then have to delete that folder and reimport when you go back to LR.
Looks like an incomplete implementation of this feature to me, but a whole lot better than not being able to see all same named files side by side.

It is actually pretty easy for those only wanting to get the jpegs from existing folders, and fine for importing new folders. I am still puzzed why they implemented it this way--or perhaps they intended that one could use synchronize folders to get all the formats in, and this is really just a 'bug'.
In any event, let's hope they finish the job.

  • Raw + JPEG can't import JPEG

    I have been shooting RAW+JPEG. When I go to import the images only the Raw files are visible and imported. When I look at the CF card I see that the JPEG file is in the same folder as the RAW. I don't know how to import both. Do I need to change a setting?

  • Picture Library : upload image with same name overwrite the image in thumbmail or WebVersion view but not the actual image link points to the old image

    Hello,
    I am facing a wired issue with Picture Libraries in SharePoint.
    We created a custom field and added it to UserInfo list, the column based on custom field lets user upload their personal images to a Picture Library with the name <User ID>.<Image Extension> e.g. 1.jpg where UserID is internal Listitem ID of the UserInfo list and set its URL to the field value which we use to display the image on our custom user profile and some other WebParts.
    If the user uploads a different image, it will overwrite the existing one it keeping the same name.
    The field worked perfectly with sites using widows Based authentication, but as we move the field to sites with form based authentication we find that the field is able to upload the image properly first time but on each successive upload, although a new image gets uploaded with the name userid.imagextension and is shown in the allitems.aspx page in the thumbnail view and in the picture preview on the dispform.aspx page, but the link next to the name field and the image shown on clicking the preview points to the old image.
    To put it other way
    https://<Web URL>/Picture%20Library/_w/Upload_jpg.jpg
    https://<Web Url>/Picture%20Library/_t/Upload_jpg.jpg
    Would show the updated image
    but the actual URL
    https://<Web Url>/Picture%20Library/Upload.jpg 
    points to the old image
    what’s even more strange is that even after deleting the image the url still shows the old image at
    https://<Web Url>/Picture%20Library/Upload.jpg 
    I confirmed the same by actually repeating the same exercise on a picture Library in the User Interface
    Uploading an image say upload.jpeg in the picture library using SharePoint interface.
    Then uploading a different jpeg image keeping the same name upload.jpeg again in the picture library.
    In allitems.aspx thumbnail view and on dispform.aspx page preview filed image now show the newly uploaded image but when you click the preview image or click the link in the name field value it takes you back to the old image.
    I have seen this issue on environment where we have enabled form based authentication and the issue is not seen on another server where we have wss with windows based authentication.
    Has anyone noticed such behavior and is there any workaround to that!
    Thanks & Regards

    All,
    I had the same issue. 
    In my case, Blob Cache was enabled for the web application in which the image issue was occuring.
    I cleared blob cache, and after doing a hard refresh of my browser, the correct image was then displayed.
    To clear blob cache, do the following:
    Navigate to:   
    http://yourwebapp:port/yoursite/_layouts/objectcachesettings.aspx
    Select:  "Object Cache Flush"  and  "Force all servers in the farm to flush their object cache" check boxes
    Click the OK button
    Hope this helps.

  • ViewObjects with the same name

    Hi,
    I have one top application module with 2 sup modules.
    Per submodule it has a PolisView with detail VerzekerdenView. Both view objects are created in seperate subpackages.
    When I run the application I have a menu from with I start some custom java code to create one master (Polis) record en several detail (Verzekerden) records. The first time I open a page this works fine but then when I go to a page of the other sub application module I don't see the detail records although the logging says they have been created.
    Are there know issues about ViewObjects with the same name in different packages and in different sub application modules that confuses the application?
    Isn't it possible to use the same names?
    I found out that when we delete the config files out web.xml of the second sub application module the first works fine.
    Marianne

    Nice try, do you want to send the assistence to Curacao? :)
    We also noticed that renaming the view objects didn't solve the problem. We know assume that the beans.xml that JHeadstart generates are the problem. Within one application module these names are unique but over several application modules they are not (the application module are all children of a top application module.
    We have now given everything a unique name and this seems to work.

  • Working with RAW+JPEG

    I have a Lumix GX-7, and I always shoot with RAW+JPEG. Previously when I was importing photos with Aperture, I have the option of choosing only to import RAW. Having JPEG during the shoot allow me to quickly share (via camera wifi) my photos to my iPhone Photo library using the Panasonic Image App on my iPhone.
    If use the Import interface to look at my SD card, I see only 1 copy, and there's an icon with two boxes, the one in front has a "J". Just from guessing that this is probably both the RAW and the JPEG stacked together. When I import those photos, the "J" box icon shows up in my Photos app.
    Question:
    Do you know how to access my RAW file? I can only seem to access the JPEG file.
    Can anyone confirm that Photos is indeed importing both versions of RAW and JPEG?
    Note: I do not choose to keep a copy locally on my Mac. My Macbook Air is always running out of space.
    Hope someone can help. Thank you.

    Question:
    Do you know how to access my RAW file? I can only seem to access the JPEG file.
    Can anyone confirm that Photos is indeed importing both versions of RAW and JPEG?
    Yes, Photos is importing the pair.
    You can toggle between the RAW and the JPEG, when you go to the "Edit" view of a photo. Then the "Use RAW as Original" will become active.
    Also see the Photos Help:
    Reprocess imported RAW files
    If you import RAW files that were already processed by another app, such as Aperture, the RAW processing of the photos might be out of date. If you’re happy with how a RAW photo looks, you can leave it as is, or you can choose to reprocess the RAW file with the most recent version of Apple’s RAW processing software. Note that your photos may look different after reprocessing, and you cannot undo this change.
    Double-click a photo to open it, click Edit in the toolbar, then choose Image > Reprocess RAW.

  • Can't import RAW and psd file with same name different extension

    Trying to import a folder of images from desktop that I have been working with in Bridge CS3.
    LR won't import a RAW file that has a PSD file by the same name. Tried renaming the PSD and deleting the one with the same name, but says it is still there and won't import the RAW file - What is the correct workaround on this? Why can't it import same name files with different extensions?

    A forum search for 'RAW + JPEG' will give you more posts on this than you care to read. This will change. For now, import the RAW and PSD's from separate folders and then move them together for within LR.
    LR is seeing the RAW as a sidecar to the PSD. It is an unforseen effect of the RAW + JPEG thing where they decided to not import the JPEG, seeing it as basically a preview image for the RAW.

  • Importing files with same name but different extensions

    Hope I will be clear enough.
    Lets say that instead of sending a file from Lightroom to an external editor, I open it directly in Photoshop.
    When I'm done, I save the edited photo using the same name but in a different file format : IMG_1333.cr2 > IMG_1333.psd or IMG_1333.tif, and selecting the same folder location.
    Then, I come back into Lightroom and synchronise the folder.
    Why is the knew version of the picture not showing up beside the original file, despite the different extension ?
    I notice that the different extensions ( .psd or .tif ) are recorded in the sidecar files field in the Metadata panel.
    Of course, everything works fine if the file name is modified ( or just by selecting the "copy" option in Photoshop's "save as" dialog box ). Lightroom synchronise dialog shows the new photo to import.
    So, why is Lightroom not making a difference between files with the same name but different format extensions ?
    Thanks for any hint :-)
    Gilles.

    Gilles-
    I think your problem is likely that you have the option to stack the copy with the original turned on. First, right-click on one of these photos and go to the stacking menu. If Unstack is not grayed out then you have a stack -- select Unstack to reveal all copies.
    To change the automatic stacking of edited copies from Photoshop, when you next choose to edit a file, in the bottom left corner of the dialog is the check box for unstacking. Clear it, and that choice should "stick" until you change it again.
    Hope this helps!

  • Importing files of the same name in *different* folders?

    Yes, yes, we all know about the RAW+JPEG and whatever else argument.
    But why should I be prevented from importing identical files that are stored in different folders? Who cares if they are in the library twice?
    I haven't figured out if it's just a name issue (don't think so) or if the files have to be truly identical.
    I *think*, but am not sure, that you can import separate files of the same name but that are actually different images. Can anyone verify?
    Lee Jay

    Bob,
    It appears that you can import duplicate named files by unchecking the "ignore Duplicates' box--the first time you import files (or a file) from a folder. But, if you go back to that folder to use 'import' to update, then the import takes place immediately bypassing the screen with the "ignore Dulicates' box on it--I presume it assumes that you would not want to change any of the original settings for an import from a given folder.
    The point is you had better leave it unchecked always if you want duplicates ingested intially or later on reimport.

  • BUG:  With same name jpg and RAW in same folder

    OK, we have established that you can't import same filenames RAW/jpg into the same folder, but you can drag them in later. This is useful for stacking.
    Bugs that occur when jpg and RAW with same name together in same folder. (have not tested for psd, tif etc.
    1. If you rename the jpg, the RAW also gets renamed
    2. You cannot move the jpg properly within the folder in grid mode.
    Most of my landscape shots need to go to photoshop. I developed a nice workflow which integrates PS quite well with LR...see post here:
    http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx/.3bc34679/5
    I created the workflow so that I could retain same name RAW/jpg stacks in the same folder. I have altered the workflow slightly so the jpg gets autorenamed with filename_# ... see the link above.
    Kev

    It's the same design issue Kevin. Sidecar files get renamed automatically and these are treated as sidecars.

  • How to import only RAW images from folder with RAW & JPEGs?

    My system is set up that I have both RAW & JPEGs in the same folder since I shoot JPEG+RAW. How can I import just the raw images without also sucking in the jpegs? There is no way to distinguish the difference in the Import box and also no way to easily separate the the two in the Import box. I've tried using the List View and separting them by File Size, but Aperture has a stupid bug here and it tells me that the JPEG file sizes are in the teens (like 17-18 megs) and they are still hard to separate from the RAW which are about the same size.
    Why can't Aperture do this basic thing?

    I'm not doing anything. What I wrote in my workflow example above is exactly what I'm doing. I've been trying some experiments to see if it was "A Better Finder Rename" that is causing the issue. So far, no go. I have taken just a couple of JPGs only and pointed Aperture's Import to the folder that contains them. Aperture is reading that there are only 2 jpegs (which is what there is) and their file size is right on the mark.
    Ok. I just narrowed it down to something. The flaw is showing up after the RAW files are converted to DNGs. The JPEGs do not show up in the Import box when there are camera raw files like NEFs or CR2s and the corresponding JPEGs. That is Aperture's normal behaviour. But, and this is a big BUT, when the raw files are converted to DNGs and they are in the same folder as the corresponding JPEGs, that's when Aperture pulls its shenanigans. It has something to do with the JPEGs and DNGs having the same name. Even though the files have different extensions, Aperture is doing something to the file size of the JPEGs that make them seem that they are much larger files than they actually are.
    I figured it out like this:
    I had 2 CR2 files and the corresponding JPEGs in a folder. Pointing Aperture's Import to that folder, Aperture did what it is supposed to do; it saw only 2 raw files (doesn't matter that the G9 CR2 files are not supported yet). So, I renamed all the files using A Better Finder Rename and Aperture still only saw 2 raw files.
    So far so good.
    Then, I converted just the 2 CR2 files to DNG and kept them in the same folder. Aperture saw 2 DNGs and 2 CR2 files. No jpegs were seen. Business as usual. Then I removed the CR2s and renamed the jpegs so they had the same names as the DNGs (except for of course different extensions) and that's when Aperture saw the jpegs as separate files and saw them with bogus file sizes.
    So I tested that by altering the jpeg names so that they were different from their corresponding DNGs and Aperture went back to seeing the jpegs with the correct file sizes.
    Therefore, Aperture is having some difficulty with two separate files, one JPEG and the other DNG, when they both have the same name (different extensions, of course).
    Try it if you have a moment. Take one raw file and convert it to DNG and place it in a folder with its corresponding jpeg. Rename both to the same name and different extensions (.dng + .jpg) and see what happens when you try to get Aperture to import. Chance are Aperture will show bogus file sizes for the jpeg.
    Let me know if that's clear.

  • Importing raw + jpeg

    I've never shot/saved in raw format but am going to give it a try.  My camera allows me to save in both raw +jpeg.  When I view this in Aperture I see a single image and that I can set either the raw or jpeg version as the master.  What does this really mean?  If I want to edit the raw file  I set the raw as the master, and the same if I want to edit the jpeg - I set that as the master.  Is that all it really means?

    You can even hit Apple-A (select all) and then 'New Version from Master JPEG' to extract all the JPEGs and have them placed in stacks next to the RAW equivalents.
    This is good for lots of my projects which were created before Aperture, where I've manipulated a RAW and saved as a JPEG and I now want to import that folder into Aperture. Of course, if I were processing that with Aperture, most of the JPEGS wouldn't exist as they are mostly crops, levels etc. so they'd just be Aperture versions.
    What I would like to be able to do now, is to perform something similar when I have created the JPEG with a different name to the original RAW, by dragging the JPEG over the RAW or something, so that it recognises that the JPEG is also a version of a particular RAW, despite them having different names.

  • How do I delete the jpeg from raw+jpeg imported images?

    Hi,
    Back in the day, I shot lots of images using raw+jpeg and imported them into Lightroom.  Now I realize those jpegs add no value and I'd like to recover the disk space that they're collectively occupying.
    Is there a good way to:
    1. Identify all images in a catalog which have raw+jpeg?
    2. Remove just the jpeg for these images?
    Thanks!

    $$PhotoHobby wrote:
    I'm very hesistant to take the chance on any 3rd party script.
    Just so ya know, what the deletion feature in RawPlusJpeg does is ultra simple:
    1. Identifies extraneous jpeg files.
    2. Presents them for you to review.
    3. Deletes the extraneous jpeg files, if you approve. (puts them in the recycle bin if possible).
    It does nothing to the database nor anything else.
    You sync folders with 'Treat JPEG files next to raw files separately' afterward, which is what sets the database right.
    The only potential for trouble is the criteria for determining which jpegs are extraneous.
    It has no direct access to the database, so what it does is check for jpegs with same base name as raw (which *must* be present in catalog, and on disk), that aren't in the catalog, which includes the jpegs associated with RAW+JPEG (imported as a unit), *and* any jpegs that were imported separately, but subsequently removed from the catalog, or had never been imported.
    So, what it does will be the perfect thing to do, *if* you first synchronize folders (with 'Treat JPEG files next to raw files separately' checked) to pull any jpegs in to the catalog that were previously imported separately, but may have been inadvertently removed from the catalog (or had never been imported), before invoking the delete feature of the plugin.
    Note: You must do that for any manual procedure too, or you will have the same problem, except in the manual case, you won't have the benefit of the plugin checking your work, and presenting the files to be deleted, before you commit.
    It's your call, obviously, and to save Geoff the Kiwi from pointing this out: the plugin comes with no guarantee, warranty, or any other kind of tea.
    Consider backing up catalog and photo files before doing this maintenance, whether manual, or plugin-assisted.
    In my opinion, the plugin-assisted method is much safer than the manual method, which is the only reason it was written, *not* to save steps, although it does that too. For example, you can not, with the plugin, delete any jpegs that do not have a corresponding RAW in the catalog and on disk, period. - unless there is a bug of course, but there probably isn't , at least not one that would change the aforementioned assertion... - it wouldn't take much of a bug to cause it to barf, but it would take a big bug to cause it to delete files that weren't on the list, etc...
    Seriously, I don't think you have to wait for Adobe on this one. I wouldn't (I didn't - my catalog is all clean now!...).
    PS - there is *very* little recorded in the database about the jpeg sidecar - it's existence upon import (when "as a unit") - that's about it. Most of the funny business about updating that we were fumbling with above, stems from the software (and the person at the keyboard), *not* the database. Syncing folders with 'Treat JPEG files next to raw files separately' checked, once the jpeg sidecars have been cleaned up, *will* set the database straight!
    Cheers,
    Rob.

  • Aperture Raw & Jpeg import Problem

    I'm on the current Aperture and face the following situation: I have a memory card containing photos shot partly as jpeg-only and partly as jpeg&raw.
    No problem one should think since Aperture has the option to only import either raw or jpeg if there are more than one format per photo. Unfortunately, that is not working. If you select raw only, which I do for the raw&jpeg photos, Aperture does not import Photos which only have a jpeg-version at all.
    This is not consistent with the options name and at all renders the whole import options useless in my case.
    Am I missing something or is Aperture having an issue here?

    I shot raw and jpeg since I was on a trip through the US and my Macbook broke so I had to use my iPad to upload the photos to my blog. Unfortunately the iPad software (iPhoto etc.) does not allow to change the resolution and with that the filesize of the photos. Uploading of hundreds of photos of more than 2 mb over public wifis on campgrounds etc is simply not possible, so I used the following workaround: Set raw+minimum jpeg size as file format and upload the small jpegs to the blog while keeping the raw on the memory card for later use.
    That's why I shot both raw and jpeg and why I have photos shot as jpeg or raw only (before the laptop crash) and both raw and jpeg (after the crash) on the same memory card.
    I'm Aperture user from the the very first version (when it was like hundreds of Euros), and I sadly cannot say that I'm surprised of the lack of support for non-standard workflows.
    Well, so be it. Thank you for your help!

  • Import of RAW+JPEG pairs?

    Just when I thought I had it all together...I seem to have forgotten where I put it. I need some expert assistance.
    Aperture manages my Library which is kept on an external HD.
    I shoot RAW+JPEG on my D200--two image files for every shot. To anticipate the question--I'm learning about the D200, and I want to be able to see the IQ differences between an Aperture-adjusted RAW image and a D200-adjusted jpeg.
    I understood that when I imported my image files into Aperture, both files of the pair were imported and saved in my Library. I know I was working with the RAW file for all my adjustments and exports, but I believed that if I wanted that camera-adjusted jpeg, it was available from my Library. I'd also understood that I could call up that camera-adjusted jpeg using Option+J while selecting the paired RAW image in the Viewer. I know I can get a jpeg counterpart to the highlighted RAW image using Option+J--but whether it is generated by Aperture or camera is now uncertain.
    Can someone who knows answer the following:
    (1) Are both images in the shot pair (.nef and .jpg) imported into Aperture?
    (2) If the Option+J image is not the downloaded, camera-produced image--then where does the resulting jpeg file which appears come from, and where are the adjustments for it set?
    (3) If my original understanding is correct and both images in the pair were loaded into my Library--why can't I find the paired jpeg? It's not listed with the RAW files in my Finder, and my Spotlight doesn't find it either.
    (4) Is there a way to get that paired jpeg into my Library along with its RAW counterpart.
    One note on backup workflow: If those paired jpegs aren't imported into the Library, I'm fortunate to have followed advice from some of you here in the forum. Thanks to you, I always download my files using a reader and save them to a folder on my desktop. After importing them into Aperture from that folder, I move them to a folder I use to accumulate a batch for burning to a DVD for archiving. Only when burnt, do I erase them from the desktop and reformat my card. If, in fact, I've been wrong about those paired jpegs being in my Library, then I've still got them on my DVDs. Instead of being redundant with my Vaults, the DVDs will be my only source for them. Thanks to those of you who got me to buy into that workflow.
    Terry

    Thanks. A little Tough Love from the experts sent me back to try one more time to puzzle through the pages of posts on this subject. Sorry, but there's too much noise and contradiction in those pages of posts for me to buy in.
    I did what each of us probably should do--an experiment. I noted the "New Version from Master JPEG" aka Option+J was grayed out if only one of the pair (either .nef or .jpg) was imported. Only having the pair imported activated thet Option+J pick. Excellent, and just what I hoped to see.
    I also drilled down to the lowest level of the imported image folders in the Library. I'd previously stopped when I saw the image name but for some reason neglected to open the lowest folder to check for file extensions. Careless on my part. I confirmed what everyone here is regularly assured--that all the imported image files are available in the Library (and Vaults) should Aperture fail, or someone decide to leave Aperture for the dark side. Again, just what I hoped to see.

  • I exported jpg, tif, psd, and dng files from Lightroom but Aperture does not see them except for dng during import

    How do I import jpg, tif, psd files exported from Lightroom 3 into Aperture 3.2?  I had no problems before...seems like since I installed Lion, they do not show up in the import folder.

    How are you trying to import them (again) ?  If you're importing through the Import Window and have RAW only set then that's all you'll get.
    Also what's an Import Folder? Not sure how Lightroom fits into this. If you share your workflow with us we might be able to help.
