Syncing a moved folder is not bringing back all the photos to Lightroom

I have moved and renamed a folder in the external harddrive. Syncing that moved folder in lightroom is not working in bringing back all the photos to Lightroom - Although all the photos exist in that folder as I have confirmed through windows explorer.
Another Option: If I choose "import photos to this folder option" in LR and browse to the source to that folder - the missing photos are shown as shaded back and the import button (bottom right corner) is not highlighted. Therefore I cannot select these missing photos and hence cannot import them to the folder.
PLEASE ADVISE!

In the Folders Panel, the original folder should be listed with a "?" mark, because Lightroom can no longer find it. Right-click on it, select "Find Missing Folder", then browse to and select the renamed folder in its new location.
Note....these type of problems will continue to happen if you continue to rename and/or move folders or files outside of Lightroom. Do it using Lightroom and no such problems will arise.

    Apps have never been included in the backup of the device.
    Are the apps in the iTunes library on your computer?  iTunes can only sync apps to a device that are in the iTunes library.

  • When I sync my iphone to be able to import all the photos from a specific photo album onto my iphone.. why do the videos included not import?!

    So I used to have an iPhone 5 with 7000+ photos inc videos. I finally decided to free up some memory by exporting the entire camera roll into a specific folder on my windows pc. In the album are all the photos and videos, matching the content from my camera roll (obviously). Now I have the 5S and would like the entire library of photos back into my photos app. So obviously it was as simple as plugging in my iPhone and clicking the photos tab, then 'Sync Photos from' and choosing that specific folder that I had previous exported my camera roll into. I then ticked the include videos checkbox. After the sync was completed, I then went onto my photo album and found the correct album being listed. However the number of photos on the iphone album did not match the number of photos in the actual album on my windows pc. Then I realised the reason.. the videos have not transferred? I've tried resyncing several times. iTunes identifies the album to exist the correct number of photos/videos as it should do, yet my iphone still has not imported any videos. Is there anything i'm doing wrong?! Thanks in advance for any help.

    Seems that you can no longer hide them on your phone.  Try doing so in iTunes: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919.

  • Hot Sync does not bring in all the contact data from my Centro

    I have a Sprint Palm Centro that has worked well and sync'd fine with previous version of Palm Desk Top.  I recently downloaded and installed Palm DT by Access V 6.2.2.  After several tries, I was finally able to get a fairly good sync by selecting Handheld Overwrites Desktop.  BUT, it will not bring in the phone numbers or email address in the 6th and 7th field of contact numbers ( I have these all set to Mobile and Email).  The numbers are on the phone but will not pull into my desktop.  Any suggestions?

    Are you sync'ing the new device to the same username in Palm Desktop as an older device?
    If you are, this will cause problems on the new device. When you sync the device, it saves the device settings, 3rd party apps, preferences, etc. in the backup folder in the username folder on the PC. When you sync the new device it copies the contents of the backup folder for the old device to the new device. This will cause corruption in the settings for the new device thus causing erratic behavior of the new device.
    If you did not have the issue with the previous version, you may want to revert back to the version you had on the PC before upgrading. I can supply the instructions for a "clean" uninstall of Palm desktop.
    For reference purposes, click on the following link for the support page for your device on the kb.palm.com webpage.

  • Color not sending back all the video lines.

    I am working on a color project that is pretty in depth. I finished rendering all the clips but when I send it back to final cut it only send v2 and v3. V1 just comes back unrendered and uncorrected. I hope I am clear enough. any help would be great.

    On the COLOR timeline, what is the range of clip numbers on V1?
    What is the range of clip numbers on V2/V3?
    Can you search for .movs that correspond to these clip ranges, specifically, media with names like 1_g1.mov, etc. If the media is being rendered, you will find it this way, and lets go from there.

  • I dont have the toolbar with File,Edit,View,Favorites,Tools,Help. Also, every time I log in it brings back all the tabs from previous session.

    Since the toolbar isn't there, I can't do anything. I especially need to print
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I installed Firefox on Wed 5/5/10

    In Firefox 3.6 on Windows you can hide the menu bar via "View > Toolbars" or via the right click context menu on a toolbar.
    Press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the menu bar.
    Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the menu bar or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide.

  • How can I get back all the favicons in my bookmarks?

    I reset Safari because it was running slow, and I just noticed that I lost all the favicons for the websites that I bookmarked and stored. When I click on the website, that individual favicon comes back and stays next to the web address in my bookmarks...
    But I was wondering is there something that I can do to bring back all the favicons of my bookmarked sites in one step?
    Thanks,
    Mylesaway

    HI,
    But I was wondering is there something that I can do to bring back all the favicons of my bookmarked sites in one step?
    Sorry no. Next time you reset Safari, make sure "remove all website icons" isn't ticked.
    Keep in mind, webpage icons can take up hard drive space and slow Safari down.
    Tip... to make sure you have a backup, from the Safari Menu Bar click File/Export Bookmarks. Save them to an external source so that if you have problems with your Mac, you can Import back them in at a later time.

  • Can get back all my photo from the previous iphone

    My 4s was lost and I'm using iphone5 with the same Apple ID.can I get back all the photo from my previous iphone4s?

    If you have an back-up or Photo Stream on iCloud you can. Otherwise your data will probably be lost.
    Do you have a back up? Check this article to restore the back-up on your new iPhone.

  • Restore from iCloud did not bring back settings or my paid apps

    My iPad was acting up so I restored it. I kept getting backup errors from my computer so I synced to iCloud, which was successful, then did are store. After 24hours, it still hasn't brought back many of the apps.  They just sit there greed out and say waiting.  The restore did not bring back my wife's recipes in Recipe box (she is not happy!) nor did it restore any of my settings.  Is there any way to get these back?

  • My husband recently tried to sync my ipod to itunes and in the process he managed to loose all the photos I had stored on the ipod.  When I go to my pictures folder on my (Dell) laptop there is now a folder called ipod photo cache.  How do I view?

    My husband recently tried to sync my ipod to itunes and in the process he managed to loose all the photos I had stored on the ipod.  When I go to my pictures folder on my (Dell) laptop there is now a folder called ipod photo cache.  How do I view these files? They are now show as ITHMB files!

    Those photos taken or bumped photos should bi in the iPod's Camera Roll album
    - If they are in an iPod backup then restore from that backup. Note however, that the the backup that had the photos may have been overwritten by a subsequent backup that did hot have the photos on the iPod.See the restore topic of:
    iOS: How to back up
    - If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
    iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    - Have you looked on the computer? Maybe they were imported to the computer and then deleted from the iPod. Since the photos were not synced to the iPod they are not in the iPod Photo Cache folder .
