TA27468 Problem importing pictures with a Nikon D800 into a MacbookPro Retina

I have this problem with a Nikon D800 when importing into a MacbookPro Retina ... I have enough free space, I can always import a batch of files from 10-100 (varying randomly), then get this "unreadable file" error message. Very frustrating.

What version of iPhoto? Importing Raws? Jpegs?
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
Post back with the result.

  • Anyone know how to fix problem of not being able to import RAW files of Nikon D800 to Lightroom 5.2?

    Hi there, am failing miserably to import NIKON D800 RAW files into Lightroom, have updated to version 5.2 which Adobe website says is compatible, but still no luck. Can import PDF files of Nikon D800, and my RAW files are fully accessible via Nikon proprietary software such as ViewNX2 and Capture NX2. Have Microsoft OS Windows 7 (if that helps..). Anyone any idea how to fix this problem? Grateful for any ideas, Ruud

    Dear Jim, you have set me on the right track, thanks! I have updated my Nikon View NX 2 software (which includes the transfer software from camera to hard disk) and this has done the trick. Many thanks, also to Keith for showing interest in my problem. Downside remains that the files previously loaded with the old software remain 'un-importable', so if anyone still has a good tip how to try and correct that...
    .. all ideas are welcome!!
    But as said, many thanks for helping me solve the issue for future downloads

  • Problems importing AVI with DV codec to Premiere Pro

    Problems importing AVI with DV codec to Premiere Pro  (720x564 px, 32 kHz stereo, 24.4 bitrate)
    I can't import that video. What can I do?

    Svanur,
    I agree with Harm. The specs. do not match up correctly. Where did those AVI files come from?
    I assume that you are working in PAL-land (and not NTSC-land). Is that correct?
    What platform are you working on, Mac, or PC?
    When you attempt to Import those AVI files, what is the exact error message that you are getting?
    Good luck,

  • Import picture with XP

    Hi, Whenever I try to use edit>import picture (gif or jpg) (lv6.0.2)
    with windows xp i get the error message:
    "LabVIEW could not import the picture. Possible reasons include:
    -corrupt file or picture type
    -File used by another application
    -Not enough memory" .... "OK"
    well frankly, it's not OK )
    If I try to paste (in picture rings as well as front panel) I just get
    a beep. This happens for jpeg's and gifs. Bitmaps work fine, however I
    know it can be done with jpg's etc. Is this a known issue in XP? I
    have used this feature many times in W2000 etc with no problems. Is
    there a fix? None of the reasons given are valid - it happens with ANY
    image, not being used by other app and I have 512Mb RAM...
    hope you can help,
    Paul.S

    I do not believe the features have been added to LabVIEW, so the problem is not with the OS. I was able to cut and paste gifs and jpegs onto the front panel. I think the images were converted to a different format in the ctrl-x, ctrl-v process. Do you think that you might have been doing it this way before?

  • Problem importing pictures into lightroom 5.4 on a Mac.

    I have lighroom 5.4 on a Mac and I am having some trouble importing pictures into my library on lightroom. The other day I was trying to import some from another folder in my computer and the files were showing up empty (although they were not). And today I was trying to import from an SD card and I was having the same problem. I shoot in raw on a Nikon. So what can I do to fix this problem?
    This is what it looks like when I try to import

    Ask in the LR forum and provide exact technical info - "I shot raw on Nikon" and "on a Mac" is not.

  • Problem importing pictures & videos

    I had taken some video this past weekend and need to send to someone. I tried to email it right from my phone but it said the file is too large. So I plugged my phone in to my computer because I figured I would just import all of my pic & videos and send what I needed straight from my computer.  Unfortunately, my computer didn't import all of my pictures & videos.  Any idea why? I tried to unplug the USB cord and try it again but it isn't evening opening up the option to import pictures. Help please!

    Well lets see. If you take a video and its a HD setting it is quite large. However all is not lost. I use GMail to send high quality vudeo and photos. Please remember many isp's will not accept a file in excess of 10 MB so even if you can send it does not mean the file exceeds message will not be sent.
    I don't own your make of phone but my friend has one, he hooks it via the usb cable that came with the phone to his computer and its set for usb mass storage. It shows up as another drive letter when connected.
    his photos are in a file called DCIM and he has another folder called pictures which has his photos. There is also videos on this internal memory of which he transfers to his home computer.
    You might want to get a file browser like Astro in the Google Play Store to check all the folders for your photo and videos.
    Good Luck
    Oh sometimes you need to change the usb pirt on your computer to try and connect again for it to be found.

  • Why won't my Adopbe Photoshop Elements 9 recognize RAW photos taken with a Nikon D800?

    I've just taken 35 photos with a brand new Nikon D800.  Some were taken in FX format and others in DX format but all are RAW.  I moved them to a file on an exterior drive and then tried to place them into Elements 9, just as I have been doing since I started using Elements 9.  All other photos in Elements 9 are from a Nikon D5000 and D7000.  The message Elements is giving me is that the files are broken.  Is this camera too new for Elements 9 and do I have to upgrade?  I don't have the cash to upgrade to CS4, 5 or 6 and I'm not interested in Elements 10 right now.  If an upgrade is required I just may start using Nikon ViewNX 2 that came with the camera.  Any and all suggestions/answers/ideas are greatly appreciated!

    The D800 is a recent camera.
    You would need to use PSE10 to have the correct ACR version.
    With PSE9, either you can use your Nikon software to convert to an image file like Tiff or jpeg.
    Or you could use the free Adobe dngconverter software to batch convert your NEF files to the Adobe DNG raw format, which PSE9 can read.

  • Import pictures with original size

    I have been making animations (frame by frame, gosh is that
    tedious) that i put into live action films of myself. I use flash

  • Problems importing raw files from nikon d610

    My lightroom 4.4 will not import raw files from my new nikon d610. I downloaded the converted but cannot get that to work either.
    Please help

    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    The above link provides the full list of camera models supported by Adobe Camera Raw and Lightroom. You will note that support for the Nikon D610 was introduced in Lightroom 5.3.
    You have a couple of options
    a. Upgrade your version of Lightroom to version 5, the latest update is LR 5.4. This will provide support for your raw NEF files from your camera. (LR 4 will not have any further updates)
    b. Download the free Adobe DNG Converter version 8.4 and convert the NEF files to DNG format and you can then import the DNG files into Lightroom 4. (retain copies of your NEF files for use with the Nikon software or other software that may not read DNG files.)
    Quote " I downloaded the converted but cannot get that to work either.
    Please help" If you are referring  to the Adobe DNG Converter if is possible that if you used an older version of Nikon Software to transfer the files from your camera to the computer the files may have been rendered unreadable by Adobe Software.

  • Import Raw files from Nikon D7000 into Lightroom 3

    If I understand correctly I must upgrade to Lightroom 4.3 or get a converter in order to import my Raw files from Nikon D7000 into Lightroom?
    Not sure if I understand it correct?  Which is the best way?

    I use LR 3.6 with the latest updates for camera raw for this version, I believe it's 6.7, and my D7000 and its NEF's were correct handled.
    Did nothing else as install the program, update every time there was an update and in September when I bought the D7000 LR worked fine with his NEF's. Before I had a D40x which was als correctly handled.

    We currently do not offer batch downloading.
    so, if you don't like to manually ctrl-click 'Download picture', I would give the sharer a call to send you the folder of pics to you by mail ...............
    btw: question is little related to iMovie/video editing, isn't it

  • Problem importing pictures from camera with Elements Organizer

    I am using Elements Organizer from Photoshop Elements 9 (Mac OS 10.6.8).  Recently, the files imported from my camera are being stored on my hard drive with the permissions set so that only the owner of the files can read them.  Previously, anyone could read them.  I must have accidentally changed something in Elements Organizer.
    How do I set things back to how they were so that everyone can read the files imported from the camera?  Is there a way to reset the default settings for Elements Organizer?
    I can get around this by setting the permissions for the folder of pictures from the Terminal window, but this requires that I remember to do so after each import.

    You can use the app PhotoSync to wirelessly transfer the pictures to your computer while maintaining your folder structure.

  • Please help! Problems importing pictures from iphoto

    I'm making a slideshow of pictures of my family with iMovieHD. Everything was working great and I have about 7 minutes of video. I tried to import another picture from the media/photos area and now the photo shows up as horizontal lines of various colours. (Similar to the way a tv looks when not tuned into a channel properly). I tried importing the picture as a clip, and the same thing happened. This happens with ANY photo I try to add to the timeline now. I've restarted my computer and updated the software. Have I used up too much memory?

    Hi Sue,
    Thank you so much for your suggestion. I tried following the instructions by inserting a still clip at the beginning of my movie. Unfortunately, the Kenburns clip that I want to insert still shows up as horizontal moving colour lines. I noticed that the article you suggested was geared towards iMovie 4 (not HD) and said the problem had vertical black and white lines (not coloured horizontal). I tried reimporting the picture, but the same problem still occurs. Any new picture that I want to insert into the timeline does this! What's wrong with my computer?
