Synronize Folder - Kicks Out of Selected Folder

Hello LR5 Users!
When I try to Synronize a photo sub-folder in my Catalogue , the system starts Adding JPGs from my desktop and system?  Like it gets overwhelmed or something and the Sync Function just starts looking at Desktop and System images in addition to my selected original Sub-Folder that I wanted to Sync.  It doesn't always happen.   Why is this?
Too many images in my catalogue?  I have 420,000 images in my Locations Catalogue, really don't want to divide it down.   Could commas or illegal characters in Folder names cause this?
I have Optimized thecatalogue, increased cache, removed commas in folder names and even gotten a new computer, latest greatest, plenty of ram.   My images are all jpgs, no Raw.
What is the maximum Catalogue image count?  I know that trying to sync a folder with over like 15-20,000 images is too much but in this case I am only trying to sync like 1800 images.
Am I explaining the problem in a way that anyone understands?   Any ideas?  Ever had this problem?

  • How to read multiple files of a specified format from a selected folder?

    i want to read multiple files of specified format from a selected folder, even if the selected folder contains multiple sub-folders, is it possible, if so please provide me a sample.

    try this:
    foreach (string dirPath in Directory.GetDirectories(WriteYourPathHere, "*",SearchOption.AllDirectories))
    string[] files = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(dirPath, "*.txt");
    //loop over files array and do what you want with .txt files picked up during the loop
    OR in one line also:
    foreach (string file in Directory.GetFiles(WriteYourPathHere,
    "*.txt", SearchOption.AllDirectories))

  • Screen Saver "The selected folder contains no pictures"

    Hello,
    I recently had my HD replaced on my IBook after thermal damage took out the old one, and the good Apple Store folks recovered and replaces the date from the old fwinky drive.
    However, tweaking the configuration back into place, I noticed that most of the "Slideshow" style screensavers are now broken, with the following as patt of the error message:
    "The selected folder contains no pictures"
    Where the HECK are the insalled screensaver images stored? I would bring them over from the G4 tower, if I knew where to find them... Is there a way to reconnect the screensavers to the images if they are still on the drive?
    I was able to find the screensaver files in:
    System/Library/Screen Savers ...
    But no sign of any images. Clicking or opening the file just launches the "Desktop & Screen Saver" preferences panel.
    Mildly Baffled.
    Kurt

    That appears to work. The pictures are indeed actually there. It seems the slide show screensaver functionality is somehow damaged.
    Testing the screensaver on a new folder with some of my one images in it only shows a black screen. The problem apparently lies elsewhere.

  • "No photos in selected Folder" message - but there ARE photos in the selected folder.

    LR is not recognizing the photos in the folders.  I click on the question marks to locate the files, select the folder/photos on the external hard drive, and all the previews disapper in LR and it gives me the "no photos in selected folder" error message.  I'm on LR4, Mac.  How do I fix this?

    Thanks for the helpful suggestion John.  The selection you mentioned was indeed enabled -- hence the confusion that no images were visible.
    After some sleuthing, I figured out that there was a Library Filter (i.e. "Text|Attribute|Metadata|None") in effect for the parent folder and no photos matched the filter criteria. I did not notice that a filter was in effect since the the filter bar was not visible (Keystroke "\" to toggle it).
    Perhaps this might suggest a feature request -- Provide a visual cue or warning that filters are in effect.
    Come to think of it, if the text had simpy read "No photos match search criteria." rather than "No photos in selected Folder" it would have been clear what was going on.
    I wonder if other folks have been bitten by this?

    Hi Vandy,
    Thanks for your response...
    Above  coding is not worked out for moving folders...
    But using forum I got below function, it works great
    function copyFolder(sourceFolder, destinationFolder) {
        var sourceChildrenArr = sourceFolder.getFiles();
        for (var i = 0; i < sourceChildrenArr.length; i++) {
            var sourceChild = sourceChildrenArr[i];
            var destinationChildStr = destinationFolder.fsName + "/" + sourceChild.name;
            if (sourceChild instanceof File) {
                copyFile(sourceChild, new File(destinationChildStr));
            else {
                copyFolder(sourceChild, new Folder(destinationChildStr));
    function copyFile(sourceFile, destinationFile) {
        createFolder(destinationFile.parent);
        sourceFile.copy(destinationFile);
    function createFolder(folder) {
        if (folder.parent !== null && !folder.parent.exists) {
            createFolder(folder.parent);
        folder.create();
    Any other coding is also appreciatable....
    Thanks in advance

    My Photoshop and Bridge CS6 is getting spastic ( long waits when I back out of a folder, etc. ) Is it still OK to deactivate and reinstall?

    First, have you tried resetting your Preferences? It does fix a lot of problems.
    Photoshop:
    If you need a quick and dirty way to restore your preferences, here's a way you can do it using a keyboard shortcut on launch:
    Windows - CTRL-SHIFT-ALT immediately after you double-click the PS icon.
    Macintosh - CMD-SHIFT-OPTION immediately after you double-click the PS icon.
    Bridge:
    Start Adobe Bridge and immediately press Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS) until the Reset Settings dialog box appears. Select all three options--Reset Preferences, Reset Standard Workspaces, and Purge Entire Thumbnail Cache--and then click OK.

  • Message: please select folder that contains your Adobe GoLive files

    Hi, I'm really new to DW 5, I did use DW when it first came out and started to get the hang of some things, but my learning was not going as fast as I needed it to go. So I have two questions, I have searched the forums for my answers but I'm getting them in bits and peices and have also found the same question I'm about to ask, but didn't see an answer.
    Anyways, first; I'm using OS X (updated to 10.6.5) I was using "GoLive" but in the middle of updating the site, GL would crash, it wasn't from anything inperticular, it would just crash, it was always around 4-5 minutes of using it. So I started using "GoLive CS" it had been working great until today, GL CS is now starting to crash on me, doesn't matter what I'm doing, it's just a time thing.
    Is there anything to fix this bug?
    I think I might know why, and I could be wrong.......... that this is a compatable issue, but I'm not sure. I think because they are not providing anymore updates for GoLive (any version) that pretty soon I might not even be able to use it at all, but if I'm wrong, Please help.
    Now if my thoughts are correct on the first question, then can some one please help me with this message I get when trying to "Migrate" my site from Golive to Dreamweaver.
    My first question tonight was going to be why do my pages look like there is nothing on the when I open any page in Dreamweaver when I saw the post about migrating your site to Dreamweaver.
    I downloaded the extension for Dreamweaver, I installed it but when I go to migrate the "site" it gives me this message.
    Message: please select folder that contains your Adobe GoLive files
    I came back to the forums to reread the post, but what it says to change in yoour files, I can't find. It says something about changing your "root" file.
    I can't find what to change.
    I kind of like GoLive better, at least right now, but I tryed to use DW tonight to really compair the two, I got CS5 about 5 months ago which included Dreamweaver CS5, so I thought I would give it a try utill I opened it and all of my pages were blank. But I still didn't give up and now this is where I am.
    Thanks for any help, sorry for such a long posting, but I would really like to see if I like DW with out starting all over and having to rebuild my sites from scratch in DW.

    My sites were created in GoLive (i think version 6), but it started to crash, so I switched to GoLive CS (i think this is version 7).
    It was working fine until yesterday. Yesterday GoLive CS started to crash, so I decided to give DreamWeaver a try since it came with the version of CS5 that I bought about 4-5 months ago.
    Yes, I downloaded and installed the extention from the link, the one that talks about Dreamweaver CS4, and I also read this on that page (below is what I copied from the page)
    ========================================================================================== ===
    Note also: If you created your site with GoLive CS (7)  or older and then upgraded to GoLive CS2 (8) or GoLive 9, you may  experience problems with the GoLive Migration Kit extension for  Dreamweaver CS4. If this is the case, try renaming the following:
    Rootfolder-fd > web-content
    Rootfolder-fd.settings > web-settings
    Rootfolder-fd.data > web-data
    ========================================================================================== ===
    I looked for "Rootfolder-fd -fd.setting and fd.data" I can't find them.
    I was going to try and change them.

  • The files in "Downloads" folder can't be selected

    After I installed OS X 10.9 yesterday , the files in the "Downloads" folder can't be selected. I can reach them from the dock, but when I open the folder from Finder, it doesn't work.
    Has anyone encountered this problem so far ?

    Hey Dazhi,
    Where you able to resolve the issue?
    Because here's the thing, when I saw this query and the details, this looks similar to a situation that I had encountered earlier. This Java API for LC is used primarily for "Writing a resource in the repositry and I see that you are already able to achieve that sucessfully.    I reckon without the UpdateProperties method, it won't be updating the content of the resource of the XDP.
    Hence, related to the update on the XDP content, there might be a possibility using the updateProperties () method in the Java API, (String resourceUri, properties), because this adds and updates the properties of a resource. This is effectively a resource update, and, as such, this method is subjected to the rules laid out in updateResource(). You will find multiple Resource methods () depending upon the implementation you require.
    The Most important of the Pre-conditions include that the properties and its elements must not be null. I am not sure looking at your API Code Excerpt, but it looks like this should include the UpdateProperties () method.
    Also, wanted to know whether, while executing the API, are you getting this particular ALC-REP-030-000 exception either on the eclipse console or on the Server, or anything related to ALC-REP?
    Cheers!!

  • Automator - Set Selected Folder Path as Variable

    Hello everyone! I'm trying to setup an Automator service that would download a list of URLs to the currently selected folder, or wherever the service was ran from. The only problem is I don't see how I would go about setting the currently selected folder as a path to download the files to. I'm thinking of something like this:
    Note: Just realized I had service receives selected as "TEXT in ANY APPLICATION" in my screenshot. This will be "FOLDERS in FINDER" when I hopefully get this figured out!
    Where currentFolder currently selected folder, or wherever the service was ran from. As far as I can tell, I would just need to somehow set the currently selected folder as a variable like currentFolder, then set the Download URLs location to that variable? Let me know if I need to explain anything further!
    Message was edited by: kellylawrence

    So I took a slightly different route, and just setup a shell script. Apparently **cd "$@";** will get the current directory.
    Basically, I created a new service in Automator, then set Service Receives Selected to "files or folders" in "Finder", and added a "Run Shell Script" to the workflow. I set Shell to "/bin/bash", and Pass Input to "as arguments", then placed the following in the script editor.
        cd "$@";    curl -O http://www.example.com/file1.zip    curl -O http://www.example.com/file2.zip    curl -O http://www.example.com/file3.zip    unzip \*.zip    rm *.zip
    Now I can right click on any folder, and download my list of files.

  • Creative Zen M 30GB, How do I select folde

    I have a Creative Zen M 30GB and I cant seem to find a way to select folders.
    The player lets me select music by albums, artists, genres... but It does not let me select the folders as they are on the mp3 player.
    This reallly sucks becase I have music sorted and picked out, in seperate folders....
    Any one know how I can select folder on this player or can it even do this?

    I have the same question as the original poster.
    I am loading the zen with music video files only (wma) and would like to have the same playback options as mp3s.
    I understand video file dont have "tags" like mp3s used to facilitate searcing for tracks eg. artist,album etc and i wonder if this could be a problem.
    The question is...How do i get the player to play a list (or folder contents)) of video files either randomely or consecuti'vely without having to do it manualy for each and every video ie set up a playlist. Or is this not possible
    Thanks

  • Can't save attachments to selected folder

    I've just started using BT Yahoo email, as my LiveMail is kaput, and I find I can't download an attachment to a selected folder. When I click on the file, I'm given merely the generic option to 'Save to computer'. (See screen shot.) This just sends the file to my Download folder where it gets lost among 1001 other files. What am I doing wrong?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Check your browser settings - e.g. Firefox defaults to 'Save files to Downloads' folder without prompting, but can be changed to 'Always ask me where to save files'. What browser are you using?

  • Lightroom 5 displays No Photos in Selected Folder for all folders.

    All of a sudden Lightroom stopped displaying all of the installed photos. The catalog folders display the correct number of photos, but every folder in the catalog displays the same message —  No Photos in Selected Folder. The photos are all in the correct folders on the hard drives — but they don't even show up as not found — just non-existent. When I hover over a folder an image apperars in the Navigator, but nothing show in the Grid or Loupe view.
    I tried a Sync, and the import dialog came up, saying there were no photos to import. If I go to Import and navigate to photos that have not been imported they appear, but if I go to a folder that contains previously imported photos Lightroom says No Photos Found. The photos themselves are not damaged and will open in Photoshop with no problem. The only change made recently is an upgrade to Maverick on my MacBook Pro Retina laptop.
    Any thoughts will be much appreciated.

    I have had this occur twice, the last time today, after I upgraded to Mac OS 10.9. I have no idea why it happens, but it is very scary to see that there are no photos. I have fixed it both times by (a) rebuilding my catalog and (b) quitting and relaunching Lightroom. I don't know if (a) is necessary, or if relaunching is sufficient. I also have had Lightroom twice "lock" the display, where the same set of photos is displayed, regardless of which folder is selected in the left-hand panel. This is just as scary, and sometimes you don't notice, so you are editing a random photo (the photo that should be displayed, not the one that is incorrectly displayed). I'm using lightroom 5.2

  • Use Automator to create new subfolders in a selected folder

    This seems like it should be easy to accomplish, but I have had no luck.
    I want to be able to select a folder, and then run an Automator Service to create a specific set of subfolders within the selected folder.
    I am able to set up automator to create the subfolders, but it does so in the folder containing the selected folder.
    Any suggestions on how to accomplish this simple task?

    Which type of variable should I choose? I tried "text" but there's no way to set it to "input"? There are many Variables in the Library.
    Here's how I have things set up now, I thought the "Service receives selected 'folders' in 'Finder'" (at the very top of the workflow area) would pull in the selected folder.
    Thanks!
