Lightroom :: Keeps Changing NEF-RAW Files To DNG Files Upon Import

Jul 31, 2013

I am currently using a Nikon D7100 and recording my photos in the Raw/NEF-RAW format.  Recently, whenever I am uploading my photos to Lightroom 5, my photos are changing to .dng files rather than staying in the NEF file.  When I go and look back at my previous imports from the past few times, they are in NEF and NOT in .dng.  Why is this doing this and how do I turn this feature off so that my files remain the same going from my camera to my computer through importation.

Lightroom :: 4 - When Import Files Load As CR2 Files Not DNG

Apr 4, 2013

I just upgraded to a 5D and LR4.. when I import the files load as CR2 files, not DNG files.  When the files import it takes 4 files to find them. It also will not recognize the file names in the library.  How do I fix this to import like it did in LR 3??

Lightroom :: Changing Names Of Missing Files?

Dec 22, 2013

So I managed to have a fatal two disk crash and almost lost half of my catalogue. Luckily, I recovered one of the drives, but it renamed all of my files. I was using original file names (dumb mistake), and it seems there is no way to recover them. In the future I will be using YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS to keep things recoverable.
 
So at the moment I have recovered and renamed the files along those lines (YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS). What I want to do is rename the links in the catalogue to match as the files have that exif data, and then I think I can recover the files. Of course, Lightroom is throwing up roadblocks. I'd like to recover the photos with their edits, so is there a way to rename the files in the catalogue to match my new files?

Lightroom :: How To Import RAW CR2 Files

Mar 5, 2013

Today I went to LR4 and tried to import RAW CR2 files into the program using the usual import process which is pretty automatic. I also asked that copies be saved as DNG files. No matter what I tried, I got an error message saying that the files could not be imported. I use a Canon 5D Mark III. The only difference in today's shoot was that I used and HDSC card instead of a CF card. No other obvious changes. Clearly, this is a serious concern. What amI missing?

Lightroom :: Can't Import Files Into 4.3

Feb 25, 2013

I am suddenly unable to import photo files from my computer directory into LR 4.3. I have imported thousands of photos previously, but now I get an error message "Could not copy a file to the requested location". I have seen comments elsewhere on forums which says that to solve this the "Destination" has to be set to "Pictures". I can't find anywhere to select "Pictures" in the Destination menu.
 
LR is now totally useless to me. How can you get to talk to an expert at Adobe? I just get sent round in circles and end up back on the forum every time!! This is urgent!
 
25/02/13 Solved this myself. Found after clicking on the arrow at the top right, I got a pull-down menu of recently used destination paths, and by ticking the one which showed "My Lightroom Photos/ Pictures" all was well. (My Lightroom Photos is my directory in which I keep all my photos).

Lightroom :: Cannot Import Any Files On 4.2

Dec 5, 2012

I have been having problems with importing all files to Lightroom since my Macbook was 'healthchecked'!! I get the message 'cannot read files'. This started with Lightroom 3 - where I have tried to delete the preference file and then recreate - no luck, after alot of other things tried, I then uninstalled Lightroom 3 and installed a fresh version of Lightroom 4.2 - and the problem still exists.

Lightroom :: 4.1 RC Does Not Import Files?

May 23, 2012

I use a Lexar USB 3 card reader to import files created by my Canon 5d Mk-II. I click on Import on the lower left corner of LR, point to the drive which displays the files on the card. But when I click on Import LR simply sites there with the progress bar at the top not moving. I waited for quite a while several times and the files did not copy and import. Then I copied the files using Windows explorer to the folder where they are kept and tried to synchronize the folder but that option was not avaliable from the right-click on the folder name context menu. I have to shut down LR and restart before the Synchronize Folder appears again.
 
Another, and possibly related anomaly is the number of files LR report that could be imported. The number is always wrong. For instance, there may be 25 files sync but it reports something like 172.

Lightroom :: How To Import Raw Files In LR5

Nov 22, 2013

So I have just started using a D4. I was trying to upload my photos, and the RAW files will not import. I was using LR3, and thought it had something to do with the version, so got LR5, and its not working. FIles could not be imported because they could not be read. I am on MAC OSX 10.5.7. Files will import fine if they are JPG, or RAW from my D3.

Lightroom :: How To Import ARW Files In 3.6

May 22, 2013

How can I import ARW files in LR 3.6?
 
I just read:

Support for the Sony RX100 was added in Lightroom 4.2 or Camera Raw 7.2.
 
So read first and ask later.  I think that's better.

Lightroom :: 4.2 Wants To Import The Same Files Twice?

Nov 9, 2012

I'm using LR 4.2, Windows 7 Pro.
 
I notice lately that sometimes when importing new files from a card, previously imported files are sometimes imported again. 
 
I do check "organize my files by date," and after the date folder is created, I typically modify the folder name to add a description.  I also rename files on import.  I always check "new." 
 
Still, I thought that LR could keep track of this type of stuff.

Lightroom :: Why Won't RAW Files Import Into LR4

May 31, 2012

I have been using LR since version 1 and never had this happen before.  When I have an SD card filled with jpegs and RAW files from my Fuji X100 camera and try to import all of them into LR 4, ONLY the jpeg files get imported.  None of the RAW files get moved into LR at all.  I have to create a new folder, move all the RAW files so that they are alone, and do a second import. Why cannot I import all at one time, not even thinking about the difference?

Lightroom :: Won't Import WAV Audio Files

Sep 16, 2012

I had assumed LR would import WAV audio files, but it is not recognizing them.

I should explain I had the photos already in my library (without audio), and went back later to import the associated WAV files from a backup location (with WAV only, no photos).Now the WAV files have the same name as the (corresponding) photos, but a WAV suffix.
 
#1 - Confirm if LR even supports Audio files?

#2 - If yes, is there a way in my scenario to get it to ingest those audio files?

Lightroom :: 3 64bit - Won't Import NEF Files Taken On A D90?

Aug 3, 2010

why Lightroom 3 won't import NEF files taken on a D90. OS Windows 7 home Premium 64 bit, 8GB Ram, 1.5TB HD, Intel i7 860 2.8ghz, ATI Radeon 5700 Display driver series, lightroom 3 64 bit installed.

The first issue is that import in lightroom either A) Starts the import, gets through about 10 NEF files and locks/hangs indefinately followed by the Lightroom is not responding message and lightroom has to be closed down or B) Opens import module but locks/hangs whilst trying to find the images which are on an SD card - this happens whether the card is inserted into the PC card reader, an external card reader or direct from camera or C) Will not even consider opening the import module. The import module also freezes/hangs when trying to create a new catalogue. As it stands I'm unable to import directly into Lightroom from an SD card - and I've tried different cards and brands.

The strange thing is I'm having a similar issue trying to transfer the NEF files by using windows explorer - i.e. freezes & hangs, however after a number of attempts I am eventually able to copy the files over to the HD - although it is so slow.... & back-up to an external HD. Now here's the strange thing, once the NEFfiles are transfered onto the HD Lightroom will import them, but not without a fight. Again in the import module it freezes/hangs but when the "lightroom is not responding" message comes up, if you choose the "wait until lightroom" responds option it eventually imports the chosen files.

I've tried all the usual fixes - start a new catalogue, delete preferences & .lock files, unistall & re-install, update codecs for Nikon files, recalibrate the colour profile, use a generic sRGB profile, update ATI drivers etc. All other modules etc appear to work fine, although I don't use all of them, but certainly everything in library and develop aooears normal

As it currently stands I'm having to reconsider whether I want to continue investing in the Lightroom system as it just isn't acceptable for this to keep occuring and no fixes released by Adobe. I've used lightroom since 1.0 and Nikon NEf files through that time, but since version 3 it has become impossible to utilise

Lightroom :: No Files In Import Screen Of 5.2?

Sep 30, 2013

Recently bought and installed Lightroom5.2. Worked well, whereas since yesterday its not showing any files in the Import screen. So its getting so difficult to import any of the files from Canon 5D MarkIII or Canon 450D or Desktop folders.
 
However LR4 is opening all the images or files to import. When I tried it in LR5.2 its not showing any files. Tried all possible means based on the discussions in adobe. Still its not working.
