Lightroom 5.0 fails to detect memory card and open import dialog. This has always worked fine in Lightroom 4, 3,and 2.  Same cards, same camera, same iMac using OS X 10.8.4. Manual importing works OK, card is detected just fine.

Lightroom :: Why Doesn't Auto Import Actually Import Images Into Catalog

May 19, 2012

I'm using LR4 with a Canon camera setup (Wind 7 Ultimate). I've got the auto import setting all configured with an incoming folder and destination. The app recognizes when an image is put in incoming folder and in fact it moves it to the destination folder. What is really annoying is that it leaves me at the import settings dialog and then I have to make all these choices as I would if I were manually importing.
 
Shouldn't the images be places in the desination folder and some view of that image be displayed in LR? It could be the folder view or ideally I want to see the last image imported at 1:1 size so I can review it and see if I want to take another shot?  Maybe there is some flag I've got set incorrectly.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Import LandXML Dialog Box Does Not Open

Oct 9, 2012

I am trying to import a LandXML surface into my project.  However, when I click the "LandXML" button in the "Import" tab, absolutely nothing happens.  The command _AeccLandXMLIn appears in the command line, but there is no dialog box and no further action from Civil3D. How I can get this to work? 

I ran into a similar problem with the normal "Open File" dialog box, and had to run a FILEDIA command to turn that dialog box back on.  Is there a command like that to turn on and off the Import LandXML dialog box?

Lightroom :: Previous Import Count - Auto Import

Dec 21, 2011

I use Auto Import to import my RAW files. Each time LR imports my files the Previous Import count number increases. Is there a way to reset this count so it shows a true reflection of the photos from my previous import session?
 
Correct me if I'm wrong but if you manually import files the Previous Import count number resets itself automatically. I've Googled this problem & this question has been asked before - all users were utilising Auto Import.

Lightroom :: How To Have V4 Auto Import After Export

Oct 26, 2012

This seems to have been a problem with previous lightrooms and thought it may have been fixed in LR4 but I can't seem to find the option?
 
What I have a gripe with is why when I am exporting my editied raws into what ever jpeg format I want (highres low res etc) I put these in a folder with in the orgional raws parent folder and call it "02 - High_Res" for example. To then get this to show in the lightroom folder structure you then have to 'sync' the folder. Is there a way to have this done automatically? Is there a way I can just get it to appear with out syncing?

Lightroom :: Auto Import Duplicates?

Feb 21, 2013

my workflow is to copy all photos from my camera to a folder that is configured for auto import.Lightroom takes these pics and import them to the library.But it does not exclude duplicate photos. If I copy the same photos to the auto import folder again, LR imports all photos again.

Why can't I configure to exclude duplicates as it works with the manual import function?

Lightroom :: How To Disable Auto Import

Feb 5, 2010

I would like to disable auto import.
 
I uncheck "Show import dialog when a memory card is detected" under Edit - preferences - Import.  However, it rechecks itself when I close lightroom down.  Then whenever I put in a storage device -- a memory card, external hard drive, flash drive, etc -- Lightroom starts up and wants to import from that device.
 
How do I prevent this?

Lightroom :: Import Dialog Doesn't Come Up In 5.2RC

Aug 25, 2013

I've used Lightroom 5.2 RC for a few weeks and successfully imported a few times. This morning, however, the dialog will not come up and the program hangs until I kill it in Task Manager. This is in Windows 8 64-bit.
 
I've tried removing the memory card, and all other USB-connected devices, but it still hangs. I'm a developer and can supply crash dumps if necessary.

Lightroom :: How To Set Up Auto Import To Pictures Folder

Jan 10, 2012

Just got lightroom 3 for Christmas. I cannot figure it out and it's a headache so far.  How am I supposed to set up the auto import to the My Pictures folder when I am supposed to chose an empty folder for Lightroom to watch? I must be misunderstanding something because I imagine that everyone who buys Lightroom already has photos in their My Pictures folder.

Lightroom :: Auto Import Stops Importing

Dec 28, 2012

I'm seeing a problem in just some of my Lightroom 4 (version 4.3, latest updates as of today) catalogs where auto import just stops working. There are no error messages and Lightroom continues to work, but files in the watched folder just don't get imported. I've optimized the catalog, restarted Lightroom, double checked that auto import is on, restarted my mac (mac book pro running 10.7.5), imported all the photos into a new catalog... still no joy. Also worth noting is that the other import options are greyed out if auto import is on when I start Lightroom for these broken catalogs... but if I turn off auto import, and restart Lightroom, the import photos and videos is enabled and I can import the files from the watch folder manually.

Lightroom :: Turn OFF Autoscan In Import Dialog Box?

Mar 8, 2013

I am SO TIRED of having to unplug every single peripheral device attached to my computer before opening the Import dialog box in Lightroom to keep it from taking forever to access local drives due to auto scanning!
 
Why can we not turn that OFF in preferences? Why is it on in the first place? Lightroom should not scan a folder to generate thumbnails in the Import dialog box until a Source folder is manually specified! In fact, you should be able to Import without any thumbnails in the view at all if you choose.
 
Any way to force Lightroom to behave this way?

Lightroom :: 3 - Import Dialog Visibility Dark / Low

Nov 30, 2011

I have struggled with various settings of the Interface under Preferences, but the import dialog in Lightroom 3.* is so dark/low contrast as to be almost invisible.  I have to really strain to read it.

The "dim level" control doesn't work nor does using "light grey" or "white" backhground.  I'm using pretty common, calibrated monitors and the problem is not just on one computer.

Lightroom :: V5 Import Dialog Box Not Showing Previews

Jun 10, 2013

I just installed Lightroom 5 and the import dialog box is not showing the previews of the images.  Without the previews, there are no images to select for importing.  It doesn't matter if they are JPG or CR2 and if I try to import from the camera card or hard drive.  Version 4.4 also failed at first but after hacking away, I finally got the older version to work. 

I am using Lightroom 5, Windows 7 64 bit.

Lightroom :: Capture Time In Import Dialog?

Aug 16, 2012

Is there anyway possible to view capture time instead of filename on the thumbnails in the import dialog?
 
In the normal gridview it is possible to change to a lot of diffrent info so it would be great if I could do the same thing in gridview in import dialog.
 
The info is there since I can hover to se the date but it would be a lot faster if it could be visible directly.

Lightroom :: Can LR3 Be Made To Auto-import (as Google Picasa Does)?

Feb 5, 2013

I've just inherited a 500GB HDD from my Dad and I'd love to be able to work all his photos through LR, although there's no way I'm sitting there and importing each and every directory!
 
As Google Picasa can be told to monitor a directory (eg My Pictures) and each time a new directory or directories are added, on startup it scans for and locates these new dirs and imports the pictures.
 
Can LR3 be set up to do this please as it would save me hours if I could just leave it overnight to import all of his pics straight into LR.

Lightroom :: Extremely Slow Import And No Auto-update?

Feb 6, 2013

I'm using LR 4.3 on Windows 7, 64-bit.  It seems to work pretty well in Library and Develop and such, so I don't think there's a performance issue...
 
When I do a synchronize on a folder (may be 500 files or as few as 20), new files don't show up to be imported.  I can look at the folder and SEE the file.  It's there.  But, it's NOT in the library grid.  Synchronize does NOT see the file.  If I do an import (separate from Synchronize), the file usually shows up.  The file I can't see in the library shows up in the list with a checkmark, so it KNOWS it's not been imported.  At that point, I can go ahead and tell LR to add them and it's fine.
 
ALSO, when I add a keyword to a new file, it doesn't show up when I open the files for that keyword.  For example, I take a .dng file edit it, then finish in Photoshop.  Saving the file in Photoshop gets it back to LR.  I can see it in the files in Develop.  I can see it in the Library grid.  But it ISN'T in the keyword set.  Even if I ADD the keyword AGAIN, it STILL doesn't show up in the files for that keyword.  If I shut down Lightroom and restart it, THEN the file shows up in the keyword set.  Is there some "auto-update" setting I've messed up?

Lightroom :: 4.2 RC - Auto-apply Lens Profiles On Import?

Sep 6, 2012

I'm trying to import images shot on a Canon 650d using two different lenses, the (according to EXIF displayed by LR) "EF-S18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS II" (kit) lens and an "EF-S55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS II". Both lenses and the camera should be newly supported with this RC.
 
When I go to develop module and tick "activate lens corrections" (translating, I'm using the German version) nothing happens. No corrections are applied. I need to additionally change "Manufacturer" from "none" to "Canon", then the right lens is automatically found and the settings are applied.
 
However, if I save this as an import-standard (press Alt+"set standard"), just this lens is remembered: All imported images get corrected using the last selected lens profile. So if I manually correct an image taken on the 18-55mm lens and save this as default, at the next import all images, including those taken on the 55-250mm lens, get corrected using the 18-55mm profile (at least, that's what LR is showing me.)
 
It was my understanding that the import preset should be specific not only to the camera, but also to the lens the respective image was shot with.

Lightroom :: Auto Import Metadata - Get LR To Read XMP File?

Sep 15, 2013

I shot using an eye-fi card. The card autmatically generates a xmp file with geodata in it. LR auto imports these images and adds lens correction and a copy right tag.
 
What I can't do is automatically is get LR to read the xmp file and include this in the catalogue. I am having to right click images and select read metadata from file.
 
There must be a better work flow then this.

Lightroom :: Stop Auto Adding Of Keyword At Import?

Jun 7, 2012

I have no import presets created (verified by the import screen saying "none" when importing), yet LR adds one (the same one) keyword to all photos imported.  I have 4.1, but this has been happening in previous versions.  How to stop this?? It is very time consuming to always have to remove this keyword.

Lightroom :: How To Show Import Dialog While Synchronizing A Folder

Mar 2, 2013

LR3.6  started to fail to Syncronize folders. It also doesn't show only NEW photos on Importing fron hard drive, as it always has.
 
When I choose not to "show Import dialog" while synchronising a folder, it shows the correct number of new photos in a folder. But when the import starts there's a blank field and nothing happens. This can last for a whole day. Here is a screenshot.
 
The second problem is with Import.

When I start "Import" or  mark "Show import dialog before importing" in syncing a folder it shows me all the photos, despite I choose "Add", "New Photos" and "Don't Import Suscected Duplicates".
 
I havent changed any preferances, it all just started to happen lately.
 
I'm using Raw Photo Processor plug-in for external developing, I thougt this might be the cause, but I've been using it for a long time, and the problems started several days ago.

Lightroom :: Copy New Photos Doesn't Work In Import Dialog

Nov 12, 2012

When I import pictures from my SD Card I usually leave copies on the card for a while so I have them as backup, and to also be able to see recent pics on my camera.  However each time I go to import pictures from that card within LR, it defaults to selecting all pics on my SD card even though I have the "New Photos" filter selected at the top of the import box.   It always puts all my photos in the "New Photos" section, so I have to deselect all the photos that I have already imported into my catalogue so I don't get duplicates.  How do I get LR to only import pics that haven't been imported bfore?  
 
I am aware of the "Don't Import Suspected Duplicates" option, but that is not the samea as what I am looking for.   It only deselects photos that still exist in my catalogue.   Any photos that I have deleted from my catalogue remain selected in the import box as it doesn't see any duplicates.  
 
what I'm missing to have LR only select photos that haven't been previously imported from that card?
