I manually copied a new subfolder in my main photo folder. LR 4.4 (Apple) is not finding it, even if I syncronize the main folder. How can LR find it now?

Lightroom :: How To Import Files From Photo Collection In A Folder And Subfolders On Network Attached Storage (NAS) Unit

May 14, 2012

Have just installed Windows LR4 trial, told it to Import files from my photo collection in a folder + subfolders on a network attached storage (NAS) unit. Windows Explorer tells me that there are 10,308 files in 408 folders in the main folder, totalling 38.8gb but on scanning the folder prior to import LR4 tells me that there are only 9,612 photos.
 
My photo collection folder contains only photos and no other file types.
 
Why is there this discrepancy ? I've searched around to see whether there is some hidden filter that is excluding certain photo files but cannot find anything of that nature.

Lightroom :: How To Promote Subfolders In 4

Aug 11, 2012

Maybe I'm mistaken, but I really seem to recall that in previous versions you could promote a subfolder by right-clicking it. It would appear in the contextual menu. The only option I see now is to add the parent folder to the top folder in the library. Has the promote subfolder option been removed?

Lightroom :: How To Merge Multiple Subfolders

Aug 14, 2013

In LR5 is there any way to merge multiple subfolders? For example, in my 2012 folder, I have lots of subfolders that were created when I imported my photos and organized them by date.
 
But now that 2012 is over I don't need that granularity anymore and I want to consolited multiple folders into one folder.
 
I tried selecting a group of folders and right clicking but I haven't found any option for merging folder.

Lightroom :: Importing Parent And Subfolders Into New Catalog?

Feb 4, 2014

I accidentally deleted my LR4 catalog, which I cannot recover. I have been unable to import folders from the source without all the files appearing as a single batch, i.e: no sub-folders in the import window. Must I import the content of each sub-folder into the corresponding destination folders separately: must I uninstall LR4 and reinstall it so that it can create a new default catalog? What is the process I need to follow in order to import the sub-folders?

Lightroom :: How To Get Subfolders Back In Chronological Order

May 31, 2012

I've run Lightroom from the beginning and love it.  For some reason, I developed multiple catalogs.  I remedied that today with a master catalog which seems to have worked fine with one exception: On my hard disk my photos are arranged in Date Folders as subject subfolders.  (e.g., 2010>familytrip20091225>email [or Phanfare, or black/white, etc.])  Now, however, the folders are gone and everything arranged alphabetically by first subfolder order (in the foregoing example, familytrip20091225 would fall under "f" rather than as a subfolder under 2010.  The folder 2010 does not appear.
 
I have more than 10,000 pictures in this catalog and hunting for them this way is counter productive.chronological.I run LR4.1 in Windows 7 on a new HP desktop with plenty of RAM and memory.

Lightroom :: Importing And Including The Subfolders Without Getting Question Marks?

Aug 13, 2012

i am trying to import a folder of vacation pictures. it has 5000 pictures and there are many subfolders. It imports them where i want but it gives me question marks on all the subfolders. And the subfolders are empty even though it tells me how many pictures are in the folder. I right clicked the question marked folders and point to where they are and it just says they are already there and do i want to merge the folders. In importing i told it to include the subfolders. I have tried this twice and each time the same results. Very frustrating to have to scroll through thousands of pictures.

Lightroom :: Import Set Of Photos - Subfolders To Be Dates For Pics

Aug 26, 2012

I would like to import a set photos  into Lightroom as say "New York 2012" as the folder name. In that folder I would like to then have the pictures in sub folders by the relevant dates (i.e. December 1, December 2, etc...). However, it seems like everytime I try to do an import this way, I would Get my "New York 2012" folder but then a sub folder of 2012 first, and only then the subfolders with the December 1, Decemeber 2 etc pictures. Is there anyway to eliminate that "2012" subfolder that is created. I mean I already know is 2012 because the title of the main folder is New York 2012...I just want the subfolders to be the dates for the pics themselevs right away rather than first having 2012 folder to click on. Is there anyway to do this with the import feature?

Lightroom :: Moving Large Files Full Of Subfolders And Images From One Drive To Another?

Aug 28, 2013

My catalog in Lightroom 4 is spread over several hard drives and broken into years, with subfolders holding each seperate shoot.  I recently replaced the harddrive that only held 2009 with a 3TB drive that should be able to accomodate 2010,2011 and 2012.  I would like to move those files onto that drive within Lightroom so that it tracks where they are.

Lightroom :: Folders With Subfolders And More Than 3000 Pictures Cannot Be Displayed In Library Mode

Mar 12, 2012

I use a file structure in lightroom with subfolders within folders to organize photos; some of these top level folders contain many thousands of pictures; I have found that any top level folder with greater than 3000 photos will no open, and therefore all photos within that top level folder are not searchable. When I try opening such a large folder, the phrase "no photos in selected folder" is displayed. This has never been happened in LR3, but is happening in LR4.  Folders less than abour 2500 photos can be opened and searched easily.

Lightroom :: How To Copy Imported Images Or Folder To A Specific Folder On Hard Drive

Dec 3, 2013

When importing something off of a DVD or CD how do I direct Lightroom to copy the imported images or folder to a specific folder on my hard drive? It seems to default to MyCatalog but leaves the location on the CD rather than copying it to the drive. If I remove the CD the images is reported as missing.

When I go to the top of the screen for importing I can change the source but the location info on the right is not active or changeable.I am new to lightroom and coming from Photoshop Elements background.

Lightroom :: Unable To Locate Folder / Images After Failed To Move Folder

Feb 24, 2014

I was in the process of moving a folder inside or LR. I might have clicked and moved it twice since it was very slow. LR wasn't able to complete the move and gave me an error message. After I clicked "OK" on the error message, I wasn't able to find my folder/images from the old or new location. I did a spotlight search on my mac, but I wasn't able to find them anywhere. Where has my folder/images gone? I tried to locate them without any success.

Lightroom :: Moved All Photos From Structured Folder System Into One Unorganised Folder On External Drive

Jul 17, 2013

I've got about 10,000 photos that I've moved in lightroom by creating a folder called 'pictures' on the external drive using the left folders panel. I then selected all the images in the root drive on my computer and dragged them onto the 'pictures' folder on the external drive, and I expected the folder structure to come with it. Only after I realised that they had all moved into one folder. Is there a way of moving the images back into a structure without manually doing it? Here's a screenshot.....

Lightroom :: Get Rid Of Directory Path In Front Of Folder Names In Folder Listing In Library Mode?

Feb 16, 2014

Im using the most recent version of Lightroom 5.3 (updated through CC - even though this has shown up on previous version) on Windows 7 and all the folders in my library are showing up with the directory path in front of my folder names. How can I get rid of this? I do not see any options in preferences to turn this off. I have also turned off preferences in Windows > Folder Options Control Panel "Display full Path in Title bar" option.
 
I have Lightroom on several computers and have set up preferences the same on each workstation, and this only shows up on one workstation.

Lightroom :: Folder Section On Left Has Question Marks Next To Each And Every Folder

Jul 6, 2012

I just copied around 30GB of photos from my Mac laptop to a secondary internal drive that I placed in my Mac desktop. I then copied the Catalog from my laptop and put it in my primary drive on my Mac desktop. I double-clicked on the Catalog and it seemed to open everything up. I clicked on some keywords and it is finding the images. I never used LR for anything other than adding multiple keywords to all of my images.
 
1. However, the folder section on the left has question marks next to each and every folder that displays in that section. Why does it have the question marks and what do I need to do to remove them?
 
2. Do I need to do anything else to ensure the transfer is complete?

Lightroom :: 5.3 Imports Into One Folder But Display Sub-folder Incorrectly

Jan 2, 2014

I have recently upgraded to LR5.3 and have now noticed an issue when importing photos.  When importing in to one folder (as a sub folder), the photos are imported correctly, - on disk they appear in the correct place, howevr in the folder panel, the sub-folder is shown outside of the main folder.
 
Imort settings are:

Note , on disk the folder '20131226 - Boxing Day' appears correctly (These are all under a root folder 'Photos - LR Masters')

However, in the LR Folder Panel, the folder '20131226 - Boxong Day' appears outside of the 'Photos - LR Masters'
  
If I attempt to move the folder by dragging, I get an error that the folder already exists.

Lightroom :: Get A Folder To Appear In Folder List / When Trying To Import Pictures?

Nov 27, 2012

There is a folder on my hard drive that does not appear in the list of folders in the import dialog. I have tried expanding all the other folders around it (my photos are filed by date of capture) to see if it was somehow imported as a subfolder. It is simply not there. I can find and open it and access all the pictures in Photoshop Elements but not in Lightroom 4.

Lightroom :: Files In Folder That Are Not In Finder Folder

Jan 19, 2012

I opened my catalog today and went to one of my folders (2011/9 September). I noticed that there were pictures in the folder that did not belong and had the wrong name attached to them. I was surprized so I right clicked selected "Show in Finder" the folder 2011/9 September opened the photo was not in the folder.
 
Knowing the folder it should be in I went there and sure it enough it is there with it's original name.Went back to lightroom optimized the catalog... still there. Deleted folder in Lightroom, reimported, but the files came back.
 
The folder on the finder has 96 pictures, the folder in Lightroom shows 146.I can deal with removing the 40 odd files in this situation but I am afraid it will occur in one of the folders where there are a couple of thousand images.All my other folders seem fine for now, what would cause this issue?

Photoshop :: Batch And Subfolders

Jul 9, 2009

I have a folder structure of subfolders with jpeg's in them.

I'd like to 'Save for web' them , keep the same folder structure and also the same names for the images.

I made an action that does Save for web. According to Adobe the settings should be

File > Automate > Batch>

Inculde all subfolders checked

Save and Close

Override Action checked

and I tried many other settings,

but the images tend to be saved in the destination folder of the image that I created the action with, instead of their original folder.
