Updating/Find Missing *Drive* Query

Good day to you all
I'm looking for a way to apply the "Find Missing Folder.." function to the actual drive. Essentially using the Drive letter as the parent "folder" to sync all subfolders and update all the image paths.
The scenario;
I had all my photos on a local drive "W:".
They are now all on a network drive - we'll call this \\NAS\Photos (where photos is the share name on the network drive)
I can manually go through the "missing" folders from W: in the left pane of the library and "Find Missing Folders.." one at a time. This works.
However, I have about 100 folders so this is very time consuming.
The folder structure is exactly the same, what I would like to do is update the DRIVE path so I can preserve all of the LR edits.
Any ideas?
TIA

So what exactly are you doing....are you trying to relink one of the missing folders to the parent folder on the NAS? Is the parent folder showing in the Folders Panel in Lightroom's Library module? If it is, that's the folder you should relink to the equivalent parent on the NAS.
If, however, the parent folder is NOT showing in the Folders Panel, then right-click on any of the "missing" folders and select "Show Parent Folder"....that should add the parent folder to the folders panel, so that you can then relink with a single "Find Missing Folder" command (the ability to show a parent folder for missing folders was a new feature in LR4, you couldn't do that in previous versions).

    Was bluetooth working before the update ?
    If not, check if Bluetooth is really inside your notebook.
    A silver bluetooth sticker should be at the bottom of your notebook.

  • Windows 7 can´t find the driver for HP Officejet 5510. (Windows Update is set to automatic.)

    Hello everyone, I just installed Windows 7 - 64 bit. Supposedly the driver for the HP Officejet 5510 will install automatically in Windows 7 when connected via a USB, which is not happening.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01796879&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&os=4063&product=311...
    I am getting the message that Windows 7 can't find the driver. I don´t understand why?
    My Windows Update is set  to automatic.
    I see the device under printers. But when I click on it it says driver missing.
    Is there any solution? Possibility to get the driver some other way? Unfortunately HP doesn't provide a download on their website. 
    Can anyone help me, pleease?
    Honza

    I have the same problem. I spent all this money to get more features, not less so Windows 7 should run all of my XP stuff. Now I see that my HP Officejet 5510 all-in-one won't scan and I can't save in pdf format. C'mon HP....give us a driver! If I wind up having to buy another printer, I swear it won't be an HP if I get abandoned on this one. And I'll also switch vendors for all of the printers I'm responsible for replacing at work too.

  • Finding missing photos when drive letter has changed

    I have over 30,000 missing photos because LR only recognizes drive letters not names.  All my drives have a master "Image" directory with folders and subfolders.  Going to the LR online directory with name change and right clicking images and finding folder location does not work.  LR does not recognize folders or subfolders in the drive with a name change.  Usually none of the folder names are high lighted. By going to the "Missing Photographs" in the catalog menu and searching by file name I can find individual files but with over 30k missing files, this approach is not practical. I have an HP computer with Windows 7 and LR 5.7.  How do I find the photos?

    I think the most straightforward way to sort this out is:
    1. Plug in all of your external drives.  From the screen shots, it looks like you have at most 5 external drives of interest, 2 that are currently online and 3 that are disconnected.  (I'm not counting the one external drive letter that has just one photo on it.)  How many external drives do you actually have?
    2. If you don't have enough USB ports, order a $12 USB hub from Amazon.
    3. Make sure the entire folder hierarchy for each drive is showing in the Folders pane as described here. When you're done, each drive in the Folders pane should have a top-level folder labeled with a drive letter (as with your F: drive in the screenshot above).
    4. Expand the entire folder hierarchy on each drive in the Folders pane by clicking the arrows to the left of the folder.
    5. For each drive, find one or more folders in its hierarchy that are closest to the top that have a "?" on them.  It may be the root folder labeled with the drive letter (e.g. "F:"), or it may be folders below the root folder.   For each such folder with a "?", right-click it and select Find Missing Folder.  That folder should be somewhere on one of the drives.  Use Windows File Explorer to help find where it is.
    6. When you're done with step 5, you should have located all missing folders and told LR where they are currently located.  But you may have missed some.   Do Library > Find All Missing Photos.
    7. Pick a photo from step 6.  Right-click it and do Go To Folder In Library.  If the folder in the Folder pane is marked with a "?", right-click it and do Find Missing Folder.   Otherwise, click the "!" on the photo and then click Locate.  Use Windows File Explorer to help find the missing photo by filename, if necessary.  Repeat until there are no more missing photos.
    8. Going forward, try to keep all your external drives connected.  To minimize drive-letter confusion in the future, rename the drive letters of the existing external drives to start from the end of the alphabet, changing each drive letter as described here.   When you change a drive letter, you'll need to re-locate its root folder as described in steps 3-5.   (Windows tends to use drive letters from C onward.)

    I have mac os 10.7.4 update for hp photosmart c4100 series printer (printer needs a driver), where do I find a driver?

    The last driver that Canon released for the iP6600D was v10.51 for OS X 10.7. You could try downloading and installing this driver via this link.
    Note that the driver may not be digitally signed so Gatekeeper will block its installation. To get past Gatekeeper, you can right-click on the installer and select Open from the pop-up menu that appears. You will then be given the option to install the driver.

  • Find Missing files command does not allow me to navigate to backup drive

    I have just bought a MacBook Pro and am moving my catalog an images from a PC.  I have read/watched many videos on how to do this.  I have copied all images out to a hard drive along with the Catalog file.  I downloaded Lightbook 4 to Macbook and have opened my catalog file.  All my tags and folder structure are shown with ?marks.  When I highlight the My Picture folder and click "find missing photos", I don't get a Navigate window to choose hard drive folder of the same name.  Instead, I see it start task, scan and complete task and all the photos now show in the Missing Photos section of the Catalog.  I never get a Navigate window.  It just keeps starting task and then saying complete. So the images are blank with ? marks on all files.
    Help!  I bought the Macbook Pro to do my photography and instead I've spend a day watching videos showing the Navigate window which I never get when I do "find missing photos".  What's going wrong?

  • Keep having to find missing folders for network image files, although library is on local drive

    I use Lightroom to store my image files on a networked drive.  Whenever I open up Lightroom and want to access the files, it keeps losing the path to the drive and folders.  I have to keep using find missing folders on all the subdirectories to see the files.  Is there something I can do to prevent this from happening each time?

    What is this BSD Name: disk0s1 for that occupy 209.7MB?
    That is your EFI partition and shouldn't be touched.
    I'm missing around 349GB of disc, after I sum up all my folders.. freeing most huge files.
    First, empty your trash.

  • Entire drive not available when finding missing folder

    I keep my photos on an external hard drive so I can use Lightroom on my laptop and desktop computers.
    I just opened up my catalog on my desktop, and as expected all of the pictures as flagged as missing (since the desktop mounts the external drive as a different drive letter than the laptop).  I right-click on the folders and select "Find missing folder", however the dialog that comes up only allows me to select folders in my user directory on my C drive.  There is no address bar, and none of my other drive partitions or the external hard drive show up as selectable options.
    Here is an example of what I mean..

    That's an LR bug which I think only affects Windows systems, and is caused by having too many icons on your desktop (no, I'm not kidding). Workaround/fix is either clean up you desktop a little (or a lot), or you can start typing the path to the external drive in the Folder box at the bottom of the dialog box and all will be revealed.

    Check DBA_TBALES view there you find one date column that indicate last update
    One option is as follows:
    (1) Turn the auditing on: AUDIT_TRAIL = true in init.ora
    (2) Restart the instance if its running.
    (3) Audit the table:
         AUDIT INSERT,SELECT,DELETE,UPDATE on TableName
         by ACCESS WHENEVER SUCCESSFUL
    (4) Get the desired information using :

  • Cant find my driver update

    First,? I think it is pretty annoying that Creative does not allow direct email on their pruducts for people who have no idea what pruduct a vendor has packaged in their PC's.
    I have a Dell gaming machine and it is way too complex for me to dismantle to get at the card to find a serial number.
    I cant find the appropriate driver to update my product as it seems not to be listed on the Creative site.
    I went into Device Manager and it says I have a Creative SB X-FI
    What is this? How do I find the driver to update it's

    thanks. I think this may help. It can be one of two possiblities on their site.

  • Cannot find WiFi driver for E-15 0319-3SU

    Hi,
    I've tried to locate the WiFi driver for an E-15 0319-3SU without sucess.  I tried all of the available drivers on the site according to the model I have and can't seem to get one to work.  I have reaffirmed that the driver is showing as missing in Device Manager.  I'm using Win7 x64.  Sadly Lenovo System Update for whatever reason doesn't recognize the missing driver and won't update it either, so I'm up a creek!
    I reformatted one of these a while ago and recall having a lot of trouble locating the correct driver.  I had saved the driver but have since overwritten it so I can't use it.  Can someone please help?!
    Thanks!

  • I can't find a driver for HP Officejet Pro L7580.

    Updated my system to Windows 7 after years of using Vista.  Now I can't use my HP Officejet Pro L7580 because it can't find a driver to install.   Every tab says that the device is working perfectly.  I have removed all HP software...turned it off everything...rebooted...reloaded and still the message says that driver is missing and can't find it on the HP website.  It also said that it doesn't have permission to update drivers.  When checking that area....thats' wrong.  Updates are always automatic without permission per that tab you open to change settings.  I can't see the problem/solution anymore...can anyone else?
