Which file to import?

When I download my Canon S 50 RAW files they appear as a DCIM folder. Within that folder are : 100CANON; CANONMSC. Only the 100CANON subfolder contains the RAW Image data and metadata. Is this the only file I need to save? How do I relabel the file in BRIDGE with the Subject data? Thanks for your help. Paul

Keep drilling down until you can see the CR2 files. Those are the only files that need to be downloaded. Just specify a folder where you want to put them.

  • Which File Format Imports Faster

    Hi there, I'm making an acting demo reel and have ripped some footage from DVDs and have found imovie HD (5) quite slow at importing these files. I have tried .mp4 and .mov and am wondering, of all the video file formats that imovie will import is there a specific format or encoder used that will import faster than the others? Thanks!

    DV is iMovie's native format and imports about as fast as a file copy. Note that DV is 13GB per hour.
    (Everything else you import into iMovie is converted to DV, that's why it takes time.)

  • Can I control which files a transferred on migration assistant

    Can I control which files are imported from my pc using migration assistant?

    Limited.  You can choose user accounts, but not individual files or foldes.

  • I recently deleted many duplicate files. In the midst of it my Itunes songs are not in Itunes. They are in two different folders. One under 'Music' in my ID. And two under a MyMusic file in Documents. How do I know which one to import?

    Thanks, this is not an ideal answer but probably the most sensible one in my case.
    I will try it unless someone has a better suggestion, but I'll wait a bit as it will take me a few days anyway (I had actually tried to create a new smaller playlist or download by album, but at this stage the music app is not letting me queue a list of songs for download - I think I will have to disable and re-enable iTunes match which will probably delete all the songs).
    I have to say I am not very impressed with Apple here - having an online backup of all your data and beeing able to restore it to a new device easily was a strong selling point of iCloud. For music, they are Definitly not delivering at the stage.

  • Import Not Finding All Files in Folder Tree (which files were missed?)

    I'm a new LR4.1 user running on a 15" Macbook Pro (OS X 10.7.4).
    I exported my Aperture Library masters: mostly NEF files from Nikon D100, D200, D300, D800 cameras, and also JPG, TIF, and PSD files, etc.
    Aperture reported this export count: 
    51285 of 50582 (don't ask me why it exported more than it thought it had!).
    After export, I used "find" (case-insensitive) in the output directory tree to count all NEF, TIF[F], PSD, PNG, JPG, GIF, AVI, and MOV files spit out by Aperture: I found 51277 such files (pretty close to the Aperture export count, although not exactly the same).
    However when I point Lightroom to that folder tree with the exported Aperture masters, an IMPORT operation only reports 44279 photos for import (at lower left of expanded import dialog). About 7,000 less than Aperture exported! I have "Include Subfolders" checked and "Don't Import Suspected Duplicates" unchecked in the LR import dialog. Also, I am using the "ADD" option in the import dialog.
    How can I figure out which files Lightroom is missing? (I haven't actually imported anything yet due to the discrepancy.)
    I can't see how the discrepancy could be so large. I think LR should support most of my Aperture-supported files.
    I see LR doesn't support 32 bit files, but I don't see how I could have 7K files (maybe some, but I don't think 7k!) (I will check this later, am installing Xcode and ImageMagick to check the count of 32 bit deep files).
    If anyone can offer ideas on how I can find the missed files, it would be appreciated.
    (Maybe if I proceed with the import and there is some way to export a text file listing of library files, then I could process that file vs. the actual files in the directory tree to deduce the problem issues.)

  • Browse which project to import files too

    Hi,
    I'm starting to do a lot digitizing of old photos/negs and have created projects by year for my organiztion structure.  Currently I import to a temp dir and custom name each month then move the pix to the right project and then album.    It'd be nice to be able to browse where/which project to import files to instead of just having the recent projects or new option, as the recent projects list doesn't show what I need.   Thoughts? thx
    shaun

    You can select the Project to import to by clicking on it in the Projects & Albums (Library tab) list on the left side of the screen instead of choosing from the Recent projects drop down list in the Import settings Dialogue on the right side of the screen

  • How to Delete imported JPEGS after matching RAW files are imported as masters

    Using a 5D Mark III and shoot JPEG (SD) and RAW (CF).
    Aperture 3.5.1, using a managed library
    Perviously, using a 7D so new to shooting JPEG and RAWs from an aperture Aperture workflow standpoint.
    I know that i can import the JPEGs > delete images that do not make the cut > then import the matching RAW files in the import dialogue that correspond to the JPEGs in the Aperture Library.
    I use the RAW files as my Camera Master images and once the RAW files are imported, the smaller resolution JPEGs are no longer needed or viewed in my normal edit workflow.  I only need the JPEGs to quickly go through the images to find out which RAW files i need to import at a later time to increase the speed of import > edit > deliver.
    My Assumptions:
    1.  Logic would lead me to believe that after import the user should see a stack like image representation with whatever file type is considered Master to be on top and the viewable secondary file type on the bottom.  clicking on the image stack should allow you to see both file types as you would normally see with image stacks with the same files types.  This is not the case...  What am i missing here?
    2.  Logic again would lead me to believe that when i have the ability to delete one of the 2 image types as i do not need both in the end.  After the import process is complete and RAWs are backed up, I want to delete the JPEG files as they are just taking up more space on my DAS drive array...  There is no need to keep a duplicate of every file in both JPEG and RAW format.  This is not the case as when i delete the JPEG or RAW, both files formats are deleted simultaneously.  What am i missing here?
    Problems: (correspond to Assumptions above)
    1.  I do not seem to have access to both images (JPEG & RAW) in a stack where i can expand and close the stack to see both?  It seems like i only have access to the image type i have selected as Master?  This seems counter intuitive to what the workflow should be as why would aperture 'lock the secondary file types away' so you can't easily view both file types as the same time for comparison?
    2a.  Reality seems to be that i do not have access to the JPEG and RAW image files.  I can only see one at a time by selecting the images and choosing 'make JPEG master’ and then respectively... 'make RAW master', but you can't see both at the same time for file comparison.
    2b.  Also, I can't find a way to delete the JPEG images after the RAW files have been imported.  I would presume most professional photographers shoot RAW and do not shoot JPEG as their camera master or editing master images.  I do not understand why aperture has captured both as a pair in the library that does not allow me to delete the JPEG (in this case) as i have selected the RAW as my master.
    If someone can please help...  The function seems like either i am missing something obvious or that the implemented function of using RAW + JPEGs files for import is broken from a real world workflow standpoint.

    leonie...
    thank you for clearing that up for me.
    I think that at this point it is silly to use the JPEG+RAW import functionality as it seems that it takes longer to do the above steps than to just import only the RAW files and press on from there.
    I seems what i have done in the past of only importing the RAW files and then using the quick preview functionality to reduce image load times is the best thing in can come up with without keeping 'duplicates' in the database.
    That really baffels me that there is no built in functionality to remove the JPEG from a RAW+JPEG pair and i wonder how the real world photographers who help Apple test and implement software to solve real world workflow problems thought the JPEG+RAW import was going to be used.
    I do understand that i can use a smaller JPEG file size to reduce the bloat of the database, but used over hundreds of thousands of images is certainly going to make a dent in my total aperture database size and therefore storage needs down the road.
    If you have any other workflow thoughts, or know of a 3rd party plugin/ etc... to fix this obvious shortcoming then i am all ears..
    thank you again Leonie and have a great week

  • Is there a way to identify which files haven't been migrated from a backup?

    I've just upgraded my girlfriends 13" mbp from Leopard to Snow Leopard. It was behaving a little strangely and being sluggish so I erased everything before the upgrade. I've used Migration Assistant to transfer most files from a Time Machine backup but was a bit unsure about transferring everything blindly as I'm a little worried about what was causing the problems before the upgrade. The only items I didn't select in Migration Assistant were the 'All other files and folders' in the 'Users' drop box, and the 'All other files and folders on Macintosh HD'. I left these as I wanted to investigate what exactly these files were but now I have no clue how to go about this. Is there a quick way to highlight which files were present in the backup before the upgrade that aren't there now? Are any of these files likely to be hugely important?
    Also, because I backed up again after the upgrade, Migration Assistant automatically selects the last backup to migrate from instead of the one that has the missing files. Is there a way to select which backup file to use from my external drive?
    Thanks

    It's usually not a good idea to upgrade a computer that's having problems. They may get fixed, but more often they'll get worse.
    'All other files and folders on Macintosh HD'.
    Those are other files, not in any user home folders, besides system files. On most installations, they're just a few Help files, but if you've installed things or created files at the top level of a drive, they weren't migrated.

    No, unfortunately. You can only do that with a full system restore.
    If you used +Setup Assistant+ when the Mac first started up, the user accounts now on the Mac are the same ones, and you can use the "Star Wars" display to restore selected items from older backups. But you can't restore an entire home folder, or the default folders in the user's home folder (Desktop, Documents, etc.); you have to select the contents of those folders instead. See #15 in [Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/FAQ.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).
    If you used the +Migration Assistant+ app, however, the user accounts may not be recognized as being the same ones, so may not have permission to see and restore from the backups.
    It's a pain, but your best bet may be to start over: do a full system restore of the last Leopard backup, per #14 in the FAQ. Then try to address the "strangely and being sluggish" issue. Once that's either fixed or you determine it isn't a big problem, just install Snow Leopard over Leopard without erasing.

  • I have hard drive from trashed MBP15"..want to put iTunes music on my MBP17". The content is almost identical, but 17" has been showing a lot of "cannot be found" messages. Previous suggestions have always failed to identify which file/folder/library item

    Greetings..my 15"MBP crashed. I pulled hard drive and have it available as "external drive"..with all info intact. I am currently using my 17"MBP, which has really been acting up in iTunes..many of my songs are showing the dreaded "exclaimation mark"..still don't understand how this occurs. BOTH computers are almost carbon copies of each other, so I just want to copy tunes from 15" hard drive to my 17" working computer, to try and rescue all these "lost" tunes. I've asked this before and always get several answers (for which I am grateful!)..but..they are always different.."You gotta get this library folder!..just drag and drop..erase and reinstall!.."...nothing has worked yet..I'm trying one more time. Mainly need to know which file/folder to drag to what location. Should be simple,.maybe you can help. There will be TON'S of duplicates (unless program catches this and asks if I want to import dupes!!)..so I am prepared to run "dupe-elimination" program. Thanks for your time and suggestions!

    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.

  • Copy files on import greyed out

    Hi I am testing PSE10 on Mac Lion before buying and one thing is stopping me buying it at the moment.  I want my original files to stay where they are and not copied into the PSE library.  Upon getting photos from folders option there is a "copy files on import" which is ticked, aha I thought just take the tick out but it is greyed out - can anyone help ?
    Thanks

      If you are also using iPhoto; Elements will make copies to your hard drive to prevent corruption of the photo Library. The choice is Organizer or iPhoto to manage your images or you can use iPhoto together with the Elements Editor; in which case you need to set Elements as your external editor within the iPhoto settings.

  • Has anyone else found that Sony XAVC 4K files are flagged as camera files in Import?

    Has anyone else found that Sony XAVC 4K files are flagged as camera files in Import? 
    It sems that because they are being seen as a camera it is not possible to leave them in place on import?
    I have already backed up the camera files onto Thunderbolt drives and therefore I don't want them to be moved again!!
    Can I force FCPX to see the Ext HDD as a volume not a Camera?
    Thank you
    Jules

    Hi Tom
    Thank you for your reply,
    Surely all files originated from a camera? If I back them up to an external drive and clone them onto another drive for editing with FCPX, I don't expect them to be seen as camera files which FCPX then copies again just so that I can edit them. I just want to leave them in place, but FCPX doesn't give me that option.
    It seems that FCPX has failed at the first hurdle. It is forcing me to have to buy extra storage just so that FCPX can copy them on import. Surely, if FCPX can handle them natively then why does it have to move them?
