Why doesn't Lightroom 4 recognise my olympus e-p5 files?

I have recently upgraded to an Olympus e-p5 but Lightroom 4 doesn't recognise my ORF files. Any ideas? Are there any plug-ins?

The Olympus E-P5 was first supported by Lightroom 5.
There is no backward compatibility with Lightroom 4.
So your choices:
Upgrade to Lightroom 5
Download the free DNG converter, convert all the Raw files from the E-P5 to DNGs then edit the DNGs in Lightroom 4

Why doesn't Lightroom Launch?

Why doesn't Lightroom launch after the download completes? It loaded fine, but the "Launch App" is "grayed out."

Which operating system are you using? Have you tried launching it using the normal means for your operating system as opposed to the Adobe Application Manager?

Why does not Lightroom allow me to import RAW files from my Canon 5D Mark III?

Error message that it does not support cr. file

Which version of Lightroom?
As Hal points out, if it's pre v 4.1, you can't expect an old version of the software to know what to do with a camera that didn't even exist when the software was released.
Given how many times a day this same issue comes up, maybe it's time Adobe changed the error message to something like "your camera is too old to be supported by this version of Lightroom. Please upgrade" or similar...

Why doesn't iTunes add protected MPEG-4 audio files to its music library?

Why doesn't iTunes add protected MPEG-4 audio files to its music library? I copied these files to my iMac from an old PC laptop that no longer has internet access.

After downloading via iTunes, I move MP3 files from the default iTunes podcast folder to another folder (on an a external disk), I also change the name of the file and I change some MP3-tags.
You download from the iTunes store, delete the podcast, mess with it, move it around, rename it, change the tags then try to add it back to iTunes?
I want all my files in one index, the iTunes Music Library
In iTunes, right click - get info, click the Options tab and set *Media Kind:* to Music.

Why won't Lightroom 3.3 send a dng file to Photoshop CS5?

I am using a Windows 7 64 bit platform, Lightroom 3.3, Camera Raw 6.3 and Photoshop CS5 also 64 bit. I have my photos (from a Nikon D3100) in dng format but when I try to open it in Photoship using the Edit in command to send it either as a dng file or a smart object I get a notice that the file couldn't open because Photoshop couldn't be opened. In fact Photoshop does open (or it is already open). Sometimes, the file will eventually open in Photoshop, but it takes several minutes -- like 5 or more, other times it never opens.
Can anyone offer any suggestions or help?

Quote <Is there a setting LR or on the camera that I can use to allow LR to recognise (and render) the NEF file from the camera?>
No. LR will only show the thumbnail rendered by the camera,if it is possible. The better practice would be to download the files from the CF/SD card using a reliable card reader, this would be more efficient/faster and reliable. (use the camera to take photographs, rather than have it attached to the computer.)
A LR generated preview will only be rendered after the import of the NEF.

Why doesn't Lightroom organise videos/photos lacking "date taken" by "date modified" instead of "date created"?

This still seems to be a problem with Lightroom 5. This post is one of the top results after trying to Google this problem, and it's for LR3. I can't understand why something so fundamental to video (and some photo) organisation has been overlooked for so long.
I've been trying to import and organise all my old photos and videos by date with LR5. They've been backed up and copied many times over the years, most recently to an external drive last week. So every file has a "date created" of last week. But "date modified" remains the original recorded date.
This doesn't matter for photos with a proper EXIF "date taken" - but LR5 looks at the "date created" for videos, making it completely useless for organising them into date-based folders. It puts videos I recorded in 2010 (as per "date modified") into a 2014-12 folder. Why.
It's not just a video problem - some photos I took with devices that didn't record EXIF "date taken" are also filed into folders from this month, even though the "date modified" on them is correct as being from 5 years ago.
How can I rely on LR5 for importing and date-based organisation when it relies on files (lacking "date taken") having never been copied or backed up?

Hello,
I use exiftool to modify the Creation and Modification time of the files. After that I use LR "Ajust time" feature to set the time of the movies in LR to the file creation time (last point). This works fine for me.
For MOV (Quicktime):
exiftool "-FileModifyDate<TrackCreateDate" "-FileCreateDate<TrackCreateDate"
For AVI:
exiftool "-FileModifyDate<DateTimeOriginal" "-FileCreateDate<DateTimeOriginal" *.avi
Depnding on your camera (and container format mov, avi) you may also ajust the time zone, e.g.
exiftool -FileModifyDate+=1 -FileCreateDate+=1 -if "$CameraModelName =~ /EOS 600D/i" *.mov
Which time in the container (MOV, AVI) you use as source, depends on your workflow. I edit my mov files before import. Therfore "CreateDate" is the time when I edited the file. Quicktime and (some) avi file contain a time when the containing stream was created. I use this vaule as source.
exiftool <filename> gives you detailed information about all available times.

Why doesn't Lightroom 4 create xmp files for mov files?

This would be useful for moving files to other applications and databases. As far as I can tell Adobe doesn't share any metadata for .mov files between any of it's CS6 programs either, Bridge, Prelude, Premiere, etc. As a still photographer who is now shooting DSLR video I want to get metadata entered as soon as possible for my still and video files. It would be best to do both stills and video at the same time. Camera Bits Photo Mechanic is the only program I've found so far that does this. Canto Cumulus is able to read Photo Mechanic's xmp files. I don't really need Photo Mechanic in my workflow except for this issue.

Why doesn't Lightroom appear in my list of installed apps, with the option to update it.

All the other apps appear available to update, but with Lightroom I have to download it and do a fresh install each time.

Sorry, re-reading the info, the path is correct - but it isn't perhaps as clear as it should be; might I suggest changing the wording to something like 'look for the opm.db file located at
/AppData/Local/Adobe/OOBE/opm.db
however - that doesn't solve the issue of Lightroom 5 not being listed in my installed apps!

Why doesn't Lightroom 5 always watermark exported images?

I haven't changed the settings, but last time I tried to export images with a watermark the images appeared in the output folder without watermarks.
The problem has occured before, but corrected itself when I re-exported the images. This time Lightroom is steadfastly ignoring the instruction to add a watermark.
Any clues, why this happens?
Some of my jpegs are zero length when exported, is there a fix for this, other than to export them again?
I can fix the problem by using LR4.4, but why isn't LR5 working properly?
Thanks in advance,
Steve

Creative: why doesn't Vista recognise my Z

Greetings all,
I've had a plain old Zen 20gb (model number DAP-HDD05) for over two years now. It has been a great little player, and unlike all my friends with Ipods I have never had any dri've failures or lost any data off it. Unfortunately the experience has soured since upgrading to Vista 64. Now, I can't get windows to recognise my player hence I have no way of adding music to my Zen!
When I plug the player in in audio mode (as in not removable disk mode) Windows recognises that an object called Creative Zen has been plugged in. It asks to find the drivers. I say yes and it does the search thing. I've pointed it at both the original Creative CD that came with the Zen as well as its automated online search. Both turn up nothing and the driver install fails. I remove the unknown device from Device Manager manually and retry: same result. I try and install the Creative drivers and software from the CD: it refuses to get past the autoplay menu (buttons are grayed out). I manually try and install the Zen Explorer and it crashes. I search on the Creative site for Vista 64 drivers and it tells me that it should be nati'vely supported by Windows. It does not appear to be in my case. I open WMP on the hope it recognises something but it doesn't. I email Creative tech support with the problem and get the following cryptic response:
'I am sorry to inform you that there is no development planned for
Windows Vista supports via the below URL link:
Windows Vista - Driver Availability Chart
http://us.creative.com/support/kb/article.asp l=3&sid=486
We do seek for your kind understanding and apologize for any
inconvenience caused, any inconvenience caused is regretted.
However, you may like to verify its functionality on the stated
requirement and I believe it should be able to work on its stated
requirement.'
I think that means 'no, suck eggs, there won't be any support, I bet you wish you bought an ipod now (sucker).'
So Creative, how do I add music to my Zen
Thanks

I'm having exactly the same problem with my Zen Micro, I've tried all the solutions and nothing works, although the solutions for "updating firmware" aren't exactly clear. I don't know much about computers, and its pretty upsetting that i went through the whole of the solution and ended up with nothing. Frankly, I'm disgusted with the support provided!

Why doesn't Mavericks recognise my Roland PC 300 driver

The PC 300 Midi keyboard driver that I have downloaded from Roland is not recognised by Mavericks. Therefore I cannot get this keybaord to work when I'm using Logic Pro X (or at all for that matter). Can someone suggest how I can resolve this problem?
Thanks!

Why doesn't Lightroom update from the CC App?

With every new update, I don't get it as "updatable" from the CC App; but as soon as I start LR, it asks for an update. I have then to "install" it again from the CC App until next update where the procedure repeats then...

Run the cleaner tool and start from scratch. This is probably some version conflict in the installer database

Why doesn't Lightroom 4 appear in "My Products"?

I have purchased and registered many Adobe products, most recently LR 4, yet only one, CS 5 appears in my account. As a result I am continually getting sales emails for products I already own and have registered. I tried to resolve this once before... see Web Case Details: 202214013... but apparently nothing came of it. How do I reopen the case? BTW, the case also does not appear in my case history.
I apologize for using the forum to resolve an administrative problem, but it seems to be the only way to get Adobe's attention.

I do see both LR3 and LR4 in "My Products" on the Adobe page.
I realize that's not much help to you, except to say that you should see them there also.
I don't have a machine with LR on it in front of me at the moment, but I seem to also recall that you can register either within the LR application itself, or here:

Have you tried both methods?

Why doesn't Firefox have an ADM/ADMX GPO file?

I've been using Firefox for years, and it's always been my favorite browser. But working in our environment we push Firefox to our users, but we have no control of the software. Things we want to do are; allow pop-ups, disable auto-update, enable certain plug-ins and a few other settings we want configured.
Why is this never tackled by the Firefox development group? I've seen 3rd party ADM\ADMX but they only last for a version and won't work again.
Why won't Firefox do this for the business users? It's been brought up time and again.
