Tag Import problem x LR1.4 and Catalogue 2.0

Hi all,
I got a problem during import Catalogue 2.0, my 31000 pictues have been correctly imported in LR1.4, key words also, but I lost all tags on my pictures ( relatonship between Keywords and pictues)
Is there anybody meet this problem ?
Thank a lot for your help

The problem with rotating images remains. It is so slow as to be virtually unusable - slight changes are pretty much impossible to achieve as the feedback is so bad.
I have tried making all the changes to the nVidia settings as described in other posts and there is no difference to performance. I have also updated to the latest graphics drivers. Version 2.1 of Lightroom also makes no difference.
I installed Lightroom on my new laptop, which is a dual 2.1GHz with 2GB RAM, runs Vista32 and has onboard Intel graphics, and the rotate function is fluid and immediate, great to use. So
Does anyone else get this problem? Is anyone else using a Quadro FX 1700? I can find no other mention of this issue on the forums. Any other suggestions gratefully received - I'm getting so frustrated trying to use the software.

Bizarre import problems in both iPhoto and Aperture

Not sure how to explain this one .....
Tried importing photos (raw) from Cannon D10 into Aperture. Failed to import a significant number and gave a message saying that the following files were not able to be imported - but the list was blank!
So I tried the same import into iPhoto and although I still had a failure it was a significant amount less. So this time I tried just importing the failed files into iPhoto again and most of the failed photos went across with a small number still failing.
So I tried the same technique with Aperture and sure enough some of the failed files made it but not many. same problem with the list of failures being blank.
So I then imported the originally failed photos from iphoto into Aperture and all was fine.
I'm down to 2 files that are still failing to get into iPhoto, but it seems that perseverance pays.
There is nothing about the failed files that seems significant. They are frequently part of a series with exactly the same camera settings as ones that get across first time.
Duh?

With your camera connected, and both Aperture and iPhoto not running, try opening Image Capture. See how many images it displays for your camera, and then attempt to download them to a folder on your hard drive. I don't know why you're having issues importing using Aperture, but there are a number of things that Aperture can do and look for during an import that may be causing the problem. Image Capture is more basic in what it does, and may allow you to retrieve your missing images. If Image Capture is unable to get them, I'd try using a card reader.

ICal 3.x .ics import - problem with recurring events and non-unique UIDs

Upgraded to Leopard over the holiday break. Under Tiger's iCal (v2.x), .ics files exported from other calendar programs (Outlook via iAppoint/O2M in this case) and imported into iCal behaved 'normally'. However, in iCal 3.x in Leopard, for recurring appointments in the exported calendar, only the last appointment in the series shows up in iCal (although some meetings show up for about 0.25 seconds during the calendar import, then immediately disappear! This post by MalcolmS provided the critical clue - it seems that for recurring events, the .ics file has all of the events in the series with the same UID. Previous versions of iCal didn't care, but v3 apparently does - and deletes all earlier versions of the event, leaving only the last one with that UID. I confirmed that is the case by opening the .ics file in Word, which clearly showed all of the recurring events, and all the events in a series (e.g. a weekly meeting for the year) had the same UID. After the import to iCal, only the last one is in the calendar (in the above example, the one meeting of the series occurring in the last week of December). Manually editing the UIDs of a recurring series in the .ics file (to make them actually unique) allows them to all show up in iCal after import.
Since many of the events in my Outlook calendar are accepted invites for recurring appointments, re-creating them as individual calendar events in Outlook is not a viable option. The frequency of changes to my calendar means I usually export it once per day (or twice); thus, manually editing the .ics files is also not a viable option.
Any suggestions on workarounds for this problem? Alternatively, any other suggestions for getting the calendar data from Outlook into iCal?
Thanks in advance!

Firestore Importing Problems with MacBook Pro and FCP

Hello,
I've encountered a problem trying to import my P2 files from my brand new Firestore and for some reason my trusty MacBook Pro doesn't acknowledge their existence. Here's my process so far:
1.) I captured the footage in P2 mode at 720/24P
2.) I initially just tried to plug the Firestore into the computer.
3.) Then I saw that I had to set it up into DD Drive mode. I did this before running the "Organize P2" utility.
4.) When I opened the Firestore's icon on the desktop I saw only the ten reel folders (numbered 0-9) and the log folder. None of these folders had any clips inside them.
5.) After checking the manual again I hit the "organize P2" utility. This did not make any files show up.
6.) I tried "Import Panasonic P2" inside of FCP, but it doesn't see the files either.
7.) The only encouraging factor is that I CAN playback the files on my HVX200 from the device.
BUT HOW CAN I GET THEM INTO FINAL CUT PRO!?!?!?!?!
Thank you so much,
Stef

Elements 12 -- Lightroom 5: Tags-Import-Probleme

Hallo Pros, anbei einige Fragen zu Elements 12 und Lighroom 5 (unter Win8.1), zu denen ich keine Antworten googlen konnte:
Grund der Veränderung: Neuer PC, jetzt Win8.1 und zukünftig mehr Arbeit mit RAWs. Zudem möchte ich die Ordnerstruktur der Festplatte übernehmen (statt gleiches nochmal als lokale Alben anzulegen - wie ich es als Anfänger gemacht habe).
Zu Elements:
Wenn ich den alten Katalog auf dem neuen PC übernehme ist weitgehend alles beim Alten, außer dass die Personen im einzelnen Foto nicht mehr mit den Quadraten/Namen identifiziert sind. Das ist vor allem bei Gruppenphotos nervig, wo man die Namen doch gerne den Gesichter zuordnet.
Frage 1: Wie lässt sich diese Zuordnung wieder herstellen, oder "richtig" importieren.
Zu Elements und Lightroom:
Wenn die Bilder (mit abgespeicherten Tags) entsprechend der gegebenen Ordnerstruktur des neuen PCs neu importiert werden, sind alle Tags vorhanden. Die Baumstruktur und die Aufteilung in "Personen", "Stichworte" etc. ist hingegen futsch. Alle Tags sind "Stichworte" (nicht mehr "Personen, Ereignisse" etc.) und so findet sich eine ellenlange alphabetische Liste...
Auch wenn Elements-Katalog im ganzen nach Lightroom importiert wird, dann bleibt die Baumstruktur der Stichworte nur teilweise erhalten: bei Sonstiges. Hier findet sich jetzt ein chaotischer Unterordner: Importierte Stichwort-Tags mit den ehemaligen "Personen" "Orten" und "Ereignissen". Die Baumstruktur und Differenzierung scheint nicht in den Bildinformationen abgespeichert, aber muss ja irgendwo "in Elements gespeichert sein".
Frage 2: gibt es eine Möglichkeit diese Informationen (Baumstruktur der Stichworte, Oberbegriffe: Orte, Personen etc.) von Elements nach Elements und von Elements nach Lightroom "zu importieren"? Gibt es hier notwendige Voreinstellungen bei Elements oder Lightroom? (Überdies: auch bei LR wäre die "quadratische" Personenzuordnung wünschenswert.)
Für Tipps und Links wäre ich Euch sehr dankbar
Kommklaus

Hallound herzlichen Dank
Ich habe etwas experimentiert.
Bei DNG kann ich in Elements Personen markieren und alles speichern.
Leider funktioniert das bei Lightroom 5 mit Elements 12 nach Import nicht ganz so auf.
Zwar werden alle Metadaten importiert, alle jedoch als gleichwertige Stichworte. Die Ordnerstruktur Ereignisse, Personen, Orte, geht verloren.
Auch die Personenmarkierung geht verloren. Die Ornerstruktur bleibt nur bei den Stichworten erhalten, die auch unter Elements "Stichworte" heißen,
Baben Sie Rat?
Grüße Kommklaus

Lightroom import problem, or damaged catalogue

Hi, tried to import a large file of large raw pics directly from flash card into lightroom. the file was a bit big and it crashed.
now it wont import at all, even one pic from hard disk.
I ran the catalog optimiser. no change.
I upgraded from 2.6 to 2.7 hoping a bug fix might be there.
no better.
I removed lots of pics to reduce size (had over 8000 pics in lightroom) and re-optimised
but still no import. no error message just no importing.
any ideas anyone?

Hi , thanks John, sorry I have been away for a few days.
I am trying to get a consistent behaviour to a set of circumstances so I can give you specific details, in case it helps you spot the problem or suggest a cure.
here are details of todays experiments...
i now have 3 catalogs set up under the PC user where the problem occurs. (under the windows admin user there is no problem, only the one where the error/corruption has happened.)
the 3 catalogs are - 1. a brand new one I set up to try and see if i could recreate the importing failure
2. the original corrupted one.
3 an exported one from the original above
I have several folders of pictures copied from the flash drive onto the hard drive. the pictures are around 18 to 20 mb each taken in RAW.(pics from this camera have been processed many times before without problem)
If I take a folder with 17 pics in it - it imports fine into the new cat (number 1) but it fails after one or 2 pics in both 2 and 3.
When I import I use the following import settings :
add photos without moving, dont re-import suspected duplicates, dev settings -none, metatdata - none, keywords window - blank, Initial previews minimal.
I start the import, and loads a few pics (sorry when I repeat this sometimes it takes just one and sometimes a 2 or 3), then it stops with the import progress bar showing at top left of screen as partially imported. it hangs there and nothing happens, I come back later but no change. so I close lightroom and it says there is an import in progress do i want to quit or wait. well wait just hangs so i try quit.
When I open the same catalog again, it has the folder showing on the left but only one or 2 pics in it, so I tried the suggestion in your last post, i right clicked on the folder and selected synchronise. it syas it is waiting to import the reamining 14 or so pictures with ticks on 'import new photos', 'show dialog' and 'scan for metadata' so i try the import again. i click to show preview - all the pics show on the preview fine.
but the import tries and stops with the dialog progress bar in the top left and no activity.
I left it for ages but nothing.
As it works fine on the new small catalog and fine on different pc user catalogs, I think the problem must lie in the catalog of number 3 and exporting it (number2) also has the same problem.
So i am thinking I will just have to import all 8000+ pics into a new catalog and bin the old one however i will loose all my tagging and editing etc.
any othe ideas?

On windows 8 and itunes I have importing problems the DVD is only reading the music cd from 1.5x to 4.0x for 95% of the time, it does hit speeds of 30x for the other 5% of the time. Is it a driver issue with the DVD or is it a windows 8 issue?

No. You have no alternative but to plug it into a computer running iTunes and restore it.

Problem in client export and import (SCC8)

Hi,
I was asked to copy client 300 data on one AIX server to client 210 on another AIX server.
I have done the client export thru SCC8,
transferred those files to other server thru ftp,
added those requests to the import queue on target server.
As and when the request is added to the import queue, the status is being shown in red. Is there a problem with this.
And when i imported the request it got cancelled and the message in log says
the data file is damaged,but the other request(HPRKX00006) is still running.
It has taken a lot of time,so we deleted the data and cofiles related to the requests
and retransported them from source machine.
Even after that the status of the request is shown in red when added to the import queue, and dosent allow to import because the subsequent request is still running
and gives an error saying the request HPRKX00006 is still running.
Suggest a suitable solution.
pradeep.

Hi,
Is your problem solved. Currently I am facing the same issue.
Please let me know what have you done if the issue is resolved.

Letters and numbers are being deleted when I import a PDF file to my catalogue

I have a business catalogue that I change from time to time. I will make the changes in MS Word 2003 and then convert the document to a PDF file. I will then import the PDF file to my catalogue. Recently when I have impurted the PDF file I have noticed that letters on pages above the inserted PDF file and letters below the inserted PDF file will be missing. I recently updated my Acrobat Reader from 8.0 to 9.0, so maybe that is an issue.

How are you converting the documents to PDF ? Are you using Acrobat, if so, which version of Acrobat?
Also, what exactly do you mean when you "import the PDF file into my catalog". Which software are you importing the PDF into?

Problem in placing controls and indicator on imported pictures

hi.
i have a problem in placing controls and indicator on imported pictures on labview front pannel.
when i place a control or indicator on imported picture ..the control or indicator don't stay at the top of picture but go behind the picture...
kindly tell me what to do to avoid this....as complete project has been made and now i have to place all controls and indicator of front pannel on to a picture.

The Front Panel is built in layers. Each new control or decoration you add is placed in the top most layer.
To change this, select the picture, click the "Reorder" button (that's the rightmost button in the row of buttons on the toolbar, the one with the 2 arrows forming a circle), and select Move to Back. Your picture will be moved to the background and your controls will be in front of it.
Try to take over the world!

Problem importing PSD (with multiple groups and layers) into After Effects. Help!

I created a "comic strip" in photoshop (multiple rectangle shape layers, then various shapes within each box for each frame of the comic strip) that I want to import into AE. When I import it as a composition (to keep my layers), however, what appears is an simply a black image with white lines where the lines of the comic strip used to be. I checked the color modes, but they are both in RGB so I don't think that's the problem. Also, when I double click the cartoon strip composition, I can choose certain groups from the mini flow-chart at the top left and view those individual frames. However, I can't view the entire comic strip as a whole, which is necessary for my animation. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated, as I'm on a tight time constraint. Thanks!

When I asked what version down to the last decimal, I meant it. After Effects version should start with 11, but we need the numbers after that too.
And I understand that you want to pan between them, so just put all the different PSD's you import into the same comp and pan between them.

Problem importing photos into LR1 library (Mac).

I just downloaded the trial copy to see if I would like LR1 better than Aperture and I can't seem to be able to add photos or folders to an existing library. The only options I have when importing (from existing folder, CD, CF card, etc.) are:
"Import Photos at their Current Location"
"Copy photos to a new location and Import"
"Move photos to a new location and Import"
"Move photos as Digital Negative (DNG) and Import"
I believe I *should* have an option to add to the library (I've seen screenshots of it).
So as a test, I added a folder of images manually (from the import window), restarted, launched Lightroom and the folder was gone (even though it's still in the "Lightroom" folder where the database is.
I've tried to create different libraries, held the option key while launching, looked at the preferences, in the forums, help files, etc. to no avail.
I've also tried installing it on my MacBook Pro and PowerMac G5 ( 10.4.8 ) also to no avail. Removed it and re-installed. I don't understand.
Any ideas? Thank you in advance.

I'm not sure I understand your question, since I don't recall the screenshot you mention. However, I like to add photos to my library w/o creating a new folder, too.
Here's an example of how I do this with my Nikon photos:
1. I already have some photos in my library. One folder is labeled Nikon, where I put my D80 photos (all of them, so far).
2. When I hook my camera/memory card to the computer, I manually drag the images to that folder on my drive called "Nikon". This is the same folder I have imported into LR previously.
3. Start LR, Select "Import", and migrate to and select that same folder ("Nikon", in my case).
4. LR will tell you that it is not importing certain files, because they're already in the library. Click OK and LR will import the other, new files into the same "Nikon" folder (in my example).
Voila! ..no new folders in LR, just more photos.:)
Obviously, I've set LR's preferences to "Do nothing" when a memory card/camera is detected.
If I missed your point, sorry for the distraction.
regards,
jeff

When I try to import files from iMac HDD into the event, it fails. FCPX dosn't see this files for import. Files are *.m2ts and *.mpg. Should I buy plagin Quicktime component MPEG-2 to resolve a problem?

no you should transcode those files into an format that os suitable for editing. Like proRez. Although you might need some Flip4Mac or perian or something to do the conversion.

Trying to import a .mov file made with gotomeeting - no problems in past yet says No importable files -None of the selected files or folders can be imported. Change the selection and try again. re-recorded 3 times and still not accepting HELP

Trying to import a .mov file made with gotomeeting - no problems in past doing this. After 3 attempts recording the hour long video and trying to upload it to iMovie, it says No importable files -None of the selected files or folders can be imported. Change the selection and try again. What could the reason be?

After much research and troubleshooting, GoToMeeting replied with the final answer: We do not support the uploading of recordings to editing software. If you are having issues uploading a recording, unfortunately, we do not have tools or steps to resolve this. It is not a supported feature. I am sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you.
The no longer plan to support editing of recordings made with their software. So, we are planning to find a new meeting provider.

Catalogue import problem

I'm trying to import a catalogue into Lightroom 4.4. The catalogue I'm importing has 3397 images but only 1806 of these images have been imported. I tried to reimport, but the import dialogue box won't let me tick any of the boxes. With the preview window open in the import dialogue box it seems that some images are missing, yet they are all there when I go to the folder. The images and catalogue I'm trying to import are on my desktop. I have verified and repaired disk permissions after clearing my caches. Any ideas as to what else I can do?

thanks for coming back to me. I have deleted the catalogue that only partially imported and started over from scratch. I checked that all files and folders are correct. After de-fragging my PC laptop (which holds the catalogue I'm trying to transfer) and verifying permissions on my mac I exported the catalogue called "Mediterranean" that's on my PC hard drive to it's desktop. I then copied it to an external hard drive, then dropped it onto the hard drive of my mac, but once again, when i tried to "import from another catalogue" the dialogue box came up which wouldn't let me tick all 7 folders. The only folder it will fully import is Mediterranea/France. The are 3 folders that it won't let me inport anything from, and yet when I check both Windows Explorer at the outset and Finder on my mac, all the image files are there. I really don't want to lose all the develop settings from the PC catalogue. Any ideas what else I can try? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
