Trouble importing into L4.4

When trying to import RAW files into L4.4 (which i've been using for a while now) I get a message that states, the files were not imported because the files could not be read; however I was able to import the files into Aperture photo editor and even export from there to my documents.  Any suggestions? 

Most likely this means that the destinaton folder where Lightroom is trying to copy the photos to does not have WRITE permission. Change your permissions

  • Trouble importing into iMovie from Sony Handicam

    Recently I tried to import video from my sony handicam into iMovie11.  The video imported, but there was no audio. I used to be able to import with this camera no problem.  Did apple do something?
    Anyone have problems importing with thier Sony Handicam DCR - SX43?  Video imports, but audio will not import into imovie anymore.

    hey there tomaswk, welcom to Discussions.
    1) when importing HDV, iMovie/FCE HD converts it on the fly to A.I.C.-Apple Intermediate Codec. you'll need @ least 2 GB of RAM to approach realtime ingest to your MBP. i have 2.5 GB on my DP G5.
    2) the conversion also results in file sizes about 4 times the size of SD video. plenty of RAM is a necessity for HDV in iMovie or FCE HD. sounds like the partition could be the culprit. maybe get an external FireWire HDD for your HDV iMovies.
    good luck.

  • HT3805 Trouble importing into Aperture form Memory Card

    Coincidentally or not, after installing Mountain Lion, I am no longer able to import photos into Aperture from a USB connected memory card - the card does not appear in the Import Window any longer - has the method for this process changed or is it a bug?

    Do you have Aperture 3.3.2? Are you trying to import raw images?
    Does the card appear as external drive in the "Devices" section of the Finder's sidebar? And can you import from the Card in other applications, like Image Capture or iPhoto?

  • Trouble importing into iMovie. S.O.S

    I am importing 5 clips into iMovie to make a movie for work, but only half of the clips will fully import and it took multiple tries to get them. The format of the recordings are correct, and I can click import - the progress bar and time remaining just never progress. How can I fix this?
    Thanks in advance!

    Really…
    iMovie is meant for Camcorder material.
    Any other source has to fullfill very specific settings.
    For instance, stuff converted with (sadly) popular Handbrake is not compatible, if manual settings in HB are not set properly....

  • Why am I having trouble importing vCards? I follow the Help Center instructions by dragging and dropping, but some don't sync into the cloud. And why can't I drag multiple vCards? I have over 4,000. Please tell me I don't have to do one at a time?

  • Trouble importing contacts from a tab-delimited file into Contacts on 10.9.5

    I am having Trouble importing contacts from a tab-delimited file into Contacts on MacBook Pro, OS 10.9.5, Intel 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo., 400GB drive, 4GB memory DDR3
    So far I have:
    - Followed closely the help screen in Contacts app
    - Modified my source document meticulously - first in MS Word, then copied and tweaked in Apple's "Text Edit" app
    - The problem arises when I go to access the document for import.  Specifically, the target document, and all others in that file, are "greyed out" and thus can't be "opened" to facilitate the import process
    - Tried changing the extension of the document name to ".txt", ".rtf", and ".rtd". No change or improvement.
    - Searched Apple.com/help and found nothing relevant
    Can anyone offer some advice or tell me what I may be overlooking in this process?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,

    Hi Rammohan,
    Thanks for the effort!
    But I don't need to use GUI upload because my functionality does not require to fetch data from presentation server.
    Moreover, the split command advised by you contains separate fields...f1, f2, f3... and I cannot use it because I have 164 fields.  I will have to split into 164 fields and assign the values back to 164 fields in the work area/header line.
    Moreover I have about 10 such work areas.  so the effort would be ten times the above effort! I want to avoid this! Please help!
    I would be very grateful if you could provide an alternative solution.
    Thanks once again,
    Best Regards,
    Vinod.V

  • Trouble importing from canon t4i into imove

    So I have a canon t4i and I've been having trouble importing my videos from my memory card to imovie, and iphoto wont even let me upload it. I tried converting it to AVI (which took a few hours) and It's still not doing anything. I don't know what to do and it's really frustrating.

    Hello Samantha3232,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    Some video clips may not import into iMovie when using the Camera Import window
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4485
    From the File menu, choose Import > Movies.
    In the dialog that appears, select your camera from the sidebar.
    Locate and select the video clips on your camera that you would like to import.
    Click the Import button.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • Trouble importing pre-existing videos on my computer into iTunes?

    I'm having trouble importing pre-existing videos on my computer into my iTunes library? For example, I've tried adding a home video and opening it with iTunes, etc, and no error comes up or anything, it just doesn't show up in my iTunes library, not in the music, TV, Movies, Podcasts or Radio. What is the problem, does the video need to be converted to a suitable format? If so, what is this and how do I do this? I'm a new iTunes and iPod user so I would really appreciate any solutions or advice to this problem.

    ARG!! me too! I have Widnows Vista as well!! PLEASE!!!! if you EVER find out how to fix this... tell me! I have a video I downloaded from You Tube and it's in the ".flv" format! Apple reads .MP4 along with many others... but this might be a type it doesn't support! so if you ever found out how to fix this.... TELL MEEEE!!!!

  • Trouble Importing Frames into AC CS4 9.02.42

    Good afternoon,
    I am having trouble importing the frames for a project into AE CS4, and it seems to be an issue with After Effects remembering a previous attempt and importing these files.
    The first time I tried ti import this project, I hadn't realized that the initially copy of the data from the external drive to my project drive ( internal SATA 1 TB drive) had gotten corrupted becuase Soundbooth had locked up and I had to hard shut down the system while the copy was processing ( lesson learned, never try and start editing Audio on a project while the video frames are still copying to the drive) and AE opened all the files on the drive and then generated an error because the last frames were corrupt.  I deleted the folder on the project drive and recopied the project over from the external drive and let it finish before I tried anything on the system.  I have verified all the frames are intact now on the project drive, I have used Purge All on AE, but when ever I try to import the files into AE, it still stops at frame 32767 and doesnt load the rest of the video.  I need to be able to load all 53813 frames so I can work on this project.  I even renamed the prefix on the files and attempted to load them again, and still it stops at frame 32767.
    Is there a way I am missing to completely purge any history lists, temp files, etc, with Adobe Premiere CS4 and AfterEffects CS4 ?
    I can import a 79 GB uncompressed AVI just fine no issues, so I know it is not a system resources problem, I am on Vista 64 with 8 gb of RAM and loads of free hard drive space.
    Does anyone have anyideas how to resolve this and what I can do to fix AE so it will import this entire project?  I still have to import the second have of the project too which is another half hour worth of frames.
    Thank you,
    Jeff

    I wonder if the 64 bit version of AfterEffects CS5 will remove that limitation?
    Why should it? You are confusing things here (no offense). This has nothing to do with how much memory AE can handle or any of that, it's good old 16bit integer code that handles the numbering calculations. This is certainly an issue just as deep as the memory handling itself and bound to cause a ton of compatibility problems with older versions, so any change on that end will have to be weighed carefully before changing it. I wouldn't keep my hopes up for any soon-ish action on that end, as certainly it is not the highest priority for 99% of users that only ever handle short sequences...

  • Trouble importing movie into iMovieHD

    I'm having trouble importing a video into iMovie HD. Here's the message I get when attempting to do so: "The file could not be imported: The file “Macintosh HD/Users/Edd/Movies/ITI videos/don keehotay- Otto's 2.15.09” can’t be imported; QuickTime couldn’t parse it: -1409".
    the file name and extension are, "don keehotay- Otto's 2.15.iMovieProject".
    Any ideas on what I can do to get this to work?

    Hi dupedd - it is an mpg file. iMovie HD needs DV formatted material. What was the source of your file?
    You will need to convert it, using:
    MPEG StreamClip (free):
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/mpegstreamclip.html
    Apple MPEG2 PlayBack ($20):

  • Trouble importing photos into Elements 8 under Windows 7

    Elements 8 is rejecting jpeg photos I am trying to import from SD card or DVD. The photos were taken with different cameras, and ones I've imported from successfully before. It labels the files as "corrupted", or "organizer doesn't recognize this file format" or other strange messages. I've successfully  imported these files into Picassa, and Windows explorer - they are plain jpegs.

    So right after posting the question, I decided to try to first import into the file system and then import from the file system, and that worked. But its a pain because it changes my workflow.
    A possible workaround: You could use Windows Live Photo Gallery to download into your folders; the WLPG downloader is pretty good (WLPG is the version you download from Microsoft, not the one built in to Vista).  Then you could use the Organizer's File > Watch Folder feature to automatically import new photos that get added to your folders by the downloader.
    Do you use lightroom? Do you recommend it?
    I don't use Lightroom, but it has a very good reputation.  I know some other posters here use it.

  • Trouble Creating a New Directory to Import into

    I just upgraded to Lightroom 5 today and installed the update to 5.2 on Windows 7 64 bit.  I have run into a problem I never had before.  In the import module I want to create a new directory to import into.  I go through the same steps I did in Lightroom 4, but when I am done, the directory does not show up on the list.  I can find it in Windows Explorer, but not Lightroom.  If I leave the import module and then return, the directory shows up in the Lightroom list of directories.  I have tried this twice with the same result both times.  Has anyone else seen this?  Is there a Fix?

    Thanks that works.  I found that even though the new directory did not show in the Import list of directories when I created it usind the right-click method as I did in LR4,  LR5 is in fact creating it and will import to it.  Another odd thing is when I create the directory using the right-click, Windows Explorer method, the directory list in the Import module flickers like it is adding the new directory.  However, the new directory cannot be seen.
