Lightroom :: No Preview Images On IMac?
Mar 9, 2012
When I try to import images to LR3 on my new iMac I do not see any Preview images. Also in the import panel all I can see are the Folders or in case of a Card .. the name of the Card
No Preview images appear .. when I press the import button ALL of the images in a folder on an external hard drive are imported .. They appear as they Import
before I upgrade to LR4 I really want to resolve this issue. I have seen on other posting how a similar issue has been resolved on PC/Windows .

Lightroom will not display preview images during import of raw images. Any images in other formats display fine but with raw images I get a gray window the size of the preview image and the words "preview unavailable for this file".
Running Windows XP 64, Lightroom 3.3.

I'm a new LR5 user,When you create a new LR Catalog (whether images are stored local or on a NAS) LR also creates a '...Previews.lrdata' file. I think for storing the previews of the images in the corresponding Catalog file for fast(er) searching in Library mode.But when you open that catalog (and in Library mode) it looks/seems like LR is not using these previews at all. Sometimes it can take a lot of time when LR has updated (?) all image previews, especially when the originals are stored on a NAS. It looks like LR is rebuilding all previews.
Is this common, or is it some setting in LR to use or rebuild the (previously) generated previews.And does creating Smart Previews have any effect on this?

When I import images I cannot see them in the previews. I have set 1:1, standard, and minimal but it makes no difference. The images show as grey in the preview. When I go to the develop modual I can see the image I select but if I select another image the first goes gray again. For some reason I cannot render previews. Have I turned something off or on? Can I render previews after importing images? The files show up as DNG in my hard drive.

If I import the files from the camera disk directly into LR4, I sometimes get vertical streaks on the preview images.
Yet if I go to develop mode, the picture loses its streaks by merely entering and exiting crop mode without changing the image size.
If I import them from the pictures folder after they were imported through another program, I haven't had any issues. Go figure!

I use print preview in Lightroom 4. I also print a lot of landscapes. When I hit print and go to print preview, all my images are turned on end which makes review difficult. Is there a way to view them as they should be, landscape. In Lightroom, everything is set to landscape and in the printer module, it is all set to landscape. Just in print preview, they are turned on end.

I'm using LIghtroom 5.3, and raw camera 8.3, the latest update available. I found from Adobe's site that this version supports D7100 raw image imports. But when trying to import D7100 raw images, I get a message that "the file is not recognized by the raw format support in LIghtroom."

After uploading images from a card reader to LR 4.1 and 4.2, the option to review large images is present for the first 10-20 photo, then LR preview will only display a small image (the size of a thumbnail.). I can uplaod all the images from preview to the LR catalog. But then I have to go into the catalog and delete unwanted images.

I recently bought a Nikon D7100. I took some test shots and imported the images to Lightroom 4.4, then generated 1:1 previews for all the images.
Previews zoomed to 1:1 in Library Mode are noticeably soft. The image below is a screen shot of the Library preview:
Moving to Develop View produces a higher-resolution 1:1 preview. The image below is a screen shot of the Develop preview:
Look at the bricks and window screens to see the difference.
This difference occurs immediately after import (with a User Preset applied during import). Once any Develop work is done, the Library preview updates and displays at full resolution.
This problem makes doing initial editing/selection of images time consuming, because I can't determine the sharpness/quality of imported images until I've done some kind of Develop adjustment on each image.

I am using MacBook (late 2008) OS X 10.9.2 and recently upgraded to Lightroom 5.3 from Lightroom 4. After a while, some photo started to show exclamation mark at the right hand corner of the photo (*.CR2 raw files in NAS) in grid view. When I click on the exclamation mark, it shows a dialog with following message; "Lightroom has encountered problems reading this photo". So, I moved previews.lrdata, which is about 9GB, to the trash and restarted the Lightroom 5, expecting Lightroom 5 to create a new previews.lrdata. However, it won't create any preview at all.
exclamation mark at the top right hand corner of the photos in grid view.
size of Previews.lrdata file stops at 152KB.

I have used Lightroom since the first edition. I understand the (?) and connecting missing links. I have done it before with no problem. I have a book and have tried every site I can find but I do not know what the problem is. I have whole folders of images showing the ? but when I try to locate they are not showing anywhere in my finder. There is a whole group from August to October 2012. I am at my wits end. Have spent two nights on this and am not sleeping.

how to set up a preset on the Import page (there are some there now) that I can use when I import my photos into LR. I am tired of going to Lens Correction in the Develop mod to put the nikon lens in that I used for the shoot. It is always turned off and I would like to have it activated when I import my shots. I know that while in the Develop mod, I can change it for one photo and then use "sync" to have it address all the other photos. But then it is a pain in the butt. There must be a way of doing it on import. Either that or else have it recognize the lens that I used automatically.

I’m moving pictures from my old HP LIGHTROOM to my new iMAC LIGHTROOM and have discovered that my pictures tend of vanish from both, so that I’m left completely unsure if any picture I move to or import into LIGHTROOM on my iMAC will be there permanently. I’ve experienced this software instability in LIGHTROOM on my PC and was hoping if I moved to the iMAC the problem would be resolved, but I see it is an inherent and significant bug in the LIGHTROOM software. I’ve had the entire contents of the catalogs on both my PC and iMAC disappear requiring me to re-import the pictures (resulting in even random duplications} and to reenter and re-annotate metadata for thousands of pictures. I have searched in vain for any satisfactory explanation, most of all from Adobe, what might be going on here and how to prevent or alleviate the problem.

There is a stark difference between how the images processed on my iMac look versus how they are seen on a PC. Image quality diminished significantly when viewed on PC. Is there some sort of setting that I am missing or something in how I export the images from Lightroom 4.4 as jpegs

just purchased LR4 and PSE 10. Set up LR4 to use PSE 10 as the editor. I watched a Tim Gray video demonstrating this and followed the steps. When I attempted to send photos over to PSE through LR nothing happened.
My system is OS X 10.7.3

I use an iMac with LR3. I would like to know if it is possible to enlarge the image so as to fill the screen. I have tried Window>screen mode> full screen and pressing L to get rid of panels but there is still a large black margin around the image.

LR has just started to launch in full screen mode on my iMac without any opportunity to minimize it or move to another program. I would like it to launch like it used to where I can control the window size but can't seem to figure out how to get back to that capability. I have an iMac running Mountain Lion. LR is the only program effected as Photoshop still launches the old way.
