Lightroom :: Could Not Move A File To Requested Location

Nov 8, 2011

I've been geo tagging my RAW images before import. I copy them from the memory card to a temporary folder, geotag, then import, asking that images be moved to the "negatives" folder (organized by quarter). Things usually work, but several times recently I've been getting the subject message (with "xx" indicating a number of files). These images enumerated and named in the message are in fact moved, but are not imported.

Lightroom :: Changing Location Of Catalogue From Internal To External HD?

May 29, 2012

I used a trial version of Lightroom 4 and imported about 300 photos from my internal imac hard drive to tinker with during the trial. So when I first set LR up, the catalog was connected to my internal hard drive, via the Pictures folder. Then when the trial ended, I bought the software and installed it but in the meantime had transferred all my photo libraryfrom my computer internal hard drive to an external hard drive. Now that I have the LR 4 software and am no longer using the trial, I'm ready to import all my photos to Light room. My question is how to I change my LR catalog (which currently contains the 300 photos I imported during the trial period) to link to my big photo library which is now on my external hard drive, instead of linking to my computer's internal hard drive

Lightroom :: Location Of Catalogue Backups And Info On External Editing?

Jul 23, 2013

i have not downloaded any images into lr5,as i am just finishing setting up all my preferences  fAlso how . My catalogue is located in my f drive in a second internal drive on my desktop computer.  Where is the best location for my catalogue backup? I figured i would backup the catalogue to this f drive,and also to my new 1tb external drive.   I will do this also for my images only on both drives. also how would i set up my external editing info.  the custom templates.  Can this info be set up later on.  Is there a good link as to what this setting is and how to set it up.?  also on metadata presets what categories are mandatory to fill out.  I am an amateur photographer and do not publish any photos so i do not need a copyright.  So I figured i would just fill out the creator section only.

Lightroom :: Move Total Content Of Catalogue?

May 14, 2012

Windows 7 Ultimate, 64-bit
 
The total content of my single catalogue file is in sub-folders in my Picture Library. I have grown out of my 1TB drive and have just bought and inseted a 2TB disk. Now, I want to move the content of my total Pictures library to my new HDD but my LR catalogue must keep track of it.
 
How do I undertake this? (To me this is a huge undertaking and I cannot afford to make a mistake.)

Lightroom :: How To Move Thumbnails To Specific Location

Feb 2, 2013

I have 'User Order' sorting selected in a catalog of about 25,000 images and I want to move thumbnails around to specific locations in the grid view.  Of course, I can select and drag them but I'm wondering if Lightroom has something like a move-to-new-location function according to which I can select photos to move, select the new grid position, and move the photos right to the new location. Phase One's Media Pro has this function but I'm not seeing it in Lightroom.

Lightroom :: How To Move The Presets Folder To A User Defined Location

Dec 19, 2013

On Windows, it is possible to move the presets folder to a user-defined location?
 
By default the presets folder is located at C:UsersusernameAppDataRoamingAdobe. I use Lightroom on both a desktop and laptop and ideally I'd like to sync the presets between them by moving the presets folder to my SkyDrive folder. This way if I create a new preset on one device, it will automatically sync to the other device via SkyDrive.
 
Yes I realize I can store presets within the catalog folder and I could move my catalog to a SkyDrive folder which would technically accomplish my goal. However that would require sync'ing my entire catalog which I do not want to do; that would generate a lot of syncing traffic back and forth all the time. So I want my catalog and my presets in seperate locations, and I want to define where my presets are stored, which I haven't seen an option for.

Lightroom :: 5 - CR2 File Don't Appear As DNG Thru Import As Catalogue

Sep 21, 2013

Photoshoot last week and I shot tethered. I had the client go through some images at the shoot on my MBP.
 
When I got back to the office i exported the shoot as a catalogue and reimported as a catalogue into LR5 .
 
I noticed today that the files in LR still say CR2.
 
I am thinking images were never converted to DNG because they were never imported through the IMPORT module...
 
So perhaps that ios why I am having such a time seeing stuff I edit in photoshop that disappear when saving in PS....

Lightroom :: Create Second EDIT File In Catalogue?

Feb 6, 2013

Is there a way to set the preference, that is should not copy a secind picture of the same item once it has been modified in Photoshop? If it is important I would save the image in a different folder from the other program directly. When I return to the library module I would like to see the same number of pictures in my catalogue as they were before I started to manipulate any of the files.

Lightroom :: Catalogue To Mirror (My Pictures) File Structure?

Feb 25, 2012

I have an extensive (seventy year...guess that reveals my age!) of photos.  it is convenient for me to have the Lightroom catalogue mirror the file structure in windows "My Pictures"..  as I am in the process of scanning old photos and adding to the database, it is often convenient to make minor structural mods to the file structure.  what is the simplest way to keep the Lightroom catalogue identical to the now modified database.  I have figured out that any photos to be moved in My Pictures, can be deleted first from the Lightroom Catalogue, then moved in My Pictures, then reimported into the Catalogue.

Lightroom :: Catalogue Structure - How To Get Pictures Into A Catalogue

Mar 16, 2013

I have been using Photoshop elements for many many years and am now looking to use Lightroom as an Interface.
 
At the moment, I have a Folder structure on my computer. At the Top I have Photos. Under Photos I have 43 additional Folders such as ( Cindi/Ivan Pictures, Cory & Jess Pictures, Barry & Janie Pictures, etc..) Now for each of these folders, such as Cory & Jess Pictures, I have a set of folders basically broken down by month/year. Now in a Given Month/Year Folder, I have a set of folders with each one containing the pictures of a given event that occurred ( birthday, trip, etc…). Guess my initial question is how do I get these pictures into a Lightroom Catalog and do I continue to use the same Structure.
 
Another example - Under the Barry/Janie Pictures Folder, one of the many Folders in this Folder is called Trips. Inside the Trips folder, I have folders for every major trip that Janie & I have taken since 2004 (21 different folders) (For example there is an Isreal Folder). The Israel Folder is made up of a set of folders, for each individual event or place that we visited during our Trip - i.e. 59 different folders.  How would this Trips Folder be brought into Lightroom?

Lightroom :: 3.6 Encountered An Error When Reading Catalogue File And Needs To Quit

May 16, 2012

Working in LR 3.6, Mac OS10.6.8, 8GB RAM, accessing from an external USB 2TB harddrive, and when opening an image I get the error:
 
"Lightroom encountered an error when reading a catalogue file and needs to quit.
 
"Lightroom will attempt to diagnose the problem the next time it launches."
 
I've run "Optimize Catalogue" and that didn't relieve the problem. Also have deleted preference files and still no joy. I also have upgrade to LR4 in hopes that it will fix the problem and it didn't. So I've removed LR4 for the time being until I can figure this out in LR3.
 
Here is a screen shot:

Photoshop :: Cannot Move Photo From Catalogue To All...

May 6, 2008

I am downloading pictures from FOTKI. It is possible to download them to my desktop. When I go to ADOBE STARTER EDITION 3, they cannot be accessed in the "home" folder, showing all of my pictures.

When I try to import the picture into the Adobe Pictures folder, I can only see it if I use the "find" option giving the image number. I cannot locate it in the folder showing all of my pictures.

When I try to move the picture into the folder showing all of my pictures, I get a "photo already in catalogue, cannot be imported" message.

Lightroom :: Photo File Backup Location?

Mar 12, 2013

I understand that Lightroom catalog backup saves only the metadata refering to changes etc. that have been made to photos.  My question refers to the backup of the photo files themselves.  If I do a Windows Defrag for instance, the photos will probably be moves in that process to a different location on my hard drive.  Can Lightroom still find thesse photo files once they are moved?  Or, if I restore photo files from an external drive to my internal hard drive which will probably locate them on different locations than they were originally, how does Lightroom associate the Catalog metadata with these newly relocated files?

Photoshop Elements :: Catalog Changed The File Location Of All Pictures To Location On Backup Drive

Jul 6, 2013

Photoshop Elements 6 (20070910.r.377499)
 
I do not know why the catalog has changed the file location of "ALL" pictures to the location on my backup drive.

Example: K:My DocumentsMy PicturesPetsPICT1460-1.JPG

The actual location of the original photo is:  D:My DocumentsMy PicturesPetsPICT1460-1.JPG
 
The location of "My Pictures" is on my primary Hard Drive D:My DocumentsMy Pictures
 
Why is Photoshop changing all of my 37,000+ photo thumbnails to point to my Backup Drive K:?
 
I need to correct the catalog file. How do I make the correction and stop it from happening in the future?

Lightroom :: Error - File Could Not Be Moved To Selected Location

Nov 8, 2013

I get an error code "file could not be moved to selected location" when trying to move an image or a folder from one hard drive to another within Lightroom.
 
I am migrating from a Windows-based PC to an iMac. I successfully used Lightroom to move all my images and catalogs from the PC hard file to a USB attached hard file.  I was able to go to the iMac and move the Lightroom Catalog from USB attached drive to the Apple Macintosh drive. I was able to bring up Lightroom with moved Lightroom Catalog and work with all of my images. Then using Lightroom I was unable to move the images to the Macintosh hard drive without getting the error code above.
