I'm operating on an iMac, OS 10.9, brand new, lots of RAM etc. I've confirmed with Apple that my computer and ext HDs are working fine. That said, using LR5.2 I'm unable to import, even a single image. I'vre tried rebooting LR, rebooting the external HD, rebooting the computer. Nothing works.
View 4 RepliesI'm unable to import raw image files from 5DMKII after upgrading to LR 4.4. Using an iMac OS 10.6.8. No error message, importing just stops after a few files have been imported. First it imported 2 files, then 9, then 11, before it stalls. No error message or pinwheel icon. I tried re-installing 4.4 twice with no change. My laptop, a Macbook Pro same system, running LR 4.3 can successfully import the same files using the same card reader and cable.

Then did the instillation of that larger "C" HD and clean install of windows 7>copied those images into one newly created folder on that drive>installed CS6 and LR 4.1 and...LR can't/will not recognize and import more than 500 out of 14,000 PSD/CS2 images.
I am able to access those images via windows explorer and open them into CS6 without difficulity. I have done a couple un/reinstall of LR.Every one of those images is located within one folder and no images anywhere else on the "C" drive. I still have the original back-ups in two places. I have watched the videos on importing images.
LR4 locks up when trying to import, or use file, edit, library, etc tabs.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got a fully updated version of Lightroom 3.6 and I haven't been able to import a single file in several months although I had no problems with Lightroom 3 (installed May 2011). I'm on a PC with Windows 7 (ver6.1).
When I try to import it says "the following files were not imported because they could not be read".
I'm importing jpg files and it fails if I try to import from: my camera (worked previously), my memory card reader, my hard drive, an external drive.
I've tried importing copies of photos Lightroom previously imported and recognized and new photos its never seen before. I've tried importing photos taken on my Canon Powershot SX100IS, my Nikon L120, and my cameraphone. It fails on everything with "the following files were not imported because they could not be read" error.
I would like to know how to change the colour of a single layered, single coloured gradient (foreground to transparent) image. There is nothing more to it than that other than I don't want to use the hue/saturation adjustment as it's hard to get a specific colour.

View 5 Replies View RelatedWhen I try to import presets in LR3/Develop, the template files are not visible to select even though they are definitely listed where I stored them on my computer. I recently upgraded my computer and am now using Window 7 instead of Windows XP. Neither new downloads nor old downloads are visible. Why doesn't LR recognize them? Does 64-bit vs 32-bit make a difference?

I noticed that all my .awr files imported and any edited .jpg imported, but the original .jpg would not import if there was a corresponding .awr file. I'm not sure how to fix this. I would like all my photos imported.

View 24 Replies View RelatedI am unable to import NEF files into the new Lightroom 5.3, I recieve the following error message: "The files are not recognized by the raw format support in Lightroom. (251)" and then each .NEF file is listed separately. I am using the latest and most updated Lightroom software and a Nikon 3300. I get this message if I try to import directly from the SD card or if I try to import from the desktop (after copying the SD card contents onto my desktop). I also am unable to import directly from the camera. I'm using a promaster performance 32GG SD card that I formated in the Nikon 3300 before I started shooting. I took three pictures that were just JPGs on the card and these improt okay using any mechanism. All the other photos were taking RAW+JPG.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been unable to import images into Lightroom 5.2 and 5.3 for the past several days. Worked fine before. There have been similar discussions on this topic, but none identical. When I try to import from a cf card, no images show up to import. In the import dialog, if I click on other source and navigate through directories on my hdd, all the images are greyed out. This is true even for images that are not in my catalog. I have tried creating a brand new catalog with the same results on import. I have deleted all the preferences files. I upgraded from 5.2 to 5.3 and that did not fix the problem. I do not have the original dmg for Lightroom so am unable to try a complete re-installation.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to import photos from my compact flash disc (which I use in my camera) to Lightroom3 on my Mac. The files are .jpg files. The message that I get is that the files cannot be read. But I am able to import them to iPhoto, Photoshop Elements on my PC, etc. I contacted support and chatted with three different people. I uninstalled Lightroom 3.6 and re-installed 3.5 - that didn't work. So the next guy had me re-install 3.6 and update the Camera RAW version to 6.6, that didn't work.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am suddenly unable to import my images using LR4. Each night I download my cards using a card reader using LR4. I use a card reader and copy and convert to DNG. Suddenly tonight I keep getting a message that my files were not copied because they can't be read. I have tried using multiple cards, have used different readers. None of it makes a difference. I simply can't move my images off my cards anymore.
The only thing different I did yesterday, and I'm not sure if it made a difference, was to create a new destination folder by right clicking on my list on the right of the screen. I did two different sessions yesterday and I wanted the images in different folders. I right clicked on the folder from my first download, select create a new folder, and imported there. Those images downloaded but I can't do anymore.
I have no clue where to start in troubleshooting this. I thought it was the card, but none of my cards work. I thought it was the card reader, but my brand new one won't work.I am thinking it is something within LR.
I am using a MacBook Pro and Lightroom 4.4.
When importing I use the "Copy as DNG" feature and that works just fine for the RAW impages.
I then switch to the "Copy" feature to copy some JPG imsages taken with another camera and they are not copied. The information in the window is "Cound not copy a file to the requested location" and lists all files I tried to import. If I copy the files manually into the folders/locations that Lightroom should have done, the "Add" fearire works just fine.
I am just puzzled as to why Lightroom cannot copy the files to the folders that are there and add the image to the catalog on its own. Converting RAW to DNG works fine so what needs to be done to allow Copy to do the same thing.
Let me start by describing my needs. I need to generate proofs for my shoots. I'd like to export images with different aspect ratios for target devices, ie iPad, Android phone, 16:9 TV, etc. What would be really great is if I can select a named "crop setting" in the export window and generate JPGs based on the chosen setting. I've searched all over the place, all seem to talk about presets, virtual copies, etc, which really doesn't address what I want.
Fundamentally I'd like to be able to save a handful of crop settings (unique crops but with common names) for each image. I will create the crops manually as I have to pick the position and size for each carefully. For example, on a 4000x6000 image I have these crop settings (for a fairly small area of the image):
1. iPad [settings: top-left coordinate (500,500), ratio 4:3, width2000]
2. Android [settings: top-left coordinate (500,400), ratio 8:5, width 2400]
3. HDTV [settings: top-left coordinate(500,450), ratio 16:9, width 2200]
As you can see each crop is different becasue I want to be precise about how the cropped outputs look. Then at export time, I want to be able to multi-select a bunch of images and pick say "iPad" crop setting to create the JPGs in a batch.
Is there a custom plugin outside of Lightroom that can handle this?
I am using LR5 and am trying to print a single image using print package in the centre of the page, equal borders on all 4 sides.
