Jan 27, 2013I upgraded to 4.3 recently. Since then none of the sub folders have any content.

View 4 Repliesduring a shoot of products I've already organized all pictures in different subfolders on my HD (via EOS utility). Now I want to import these folders into LR4 but eventhough I've ticked the "include subfolder" box I only get one import folder.

LR 4.1
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?
View 3 Replies View RelatedIn 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.
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?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI 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?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'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.
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.
View 19 Replies View RelatedI 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?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy 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.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHave 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.
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.
I'm using Photoshop CS5.5, and I'd like to batch process a folder with thousands of images ordered in several deeper subfolders.
The problem is, that I'd like to do this with preserving subfolders order, as it's the most important part of my project.
I clicked on File > Get Photos > From Files & Folders. On the bottom right side of the screen there was an option that said, "Get Photos from Sub folders" only it was grayed out. What do I need to do to select this option?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to batch convert a Harddisk full of Corel Draw (12) files. All CPT Files need to be converted to PSD or PNG and all CDR to AI or EPS.Sure I can do that with a batch process but it does only one folder at a time.What I like to do is Batchprocess all folders including subfolders. The New image shall be named like the old one.
Thought I can do it with ACDSee but it looks like it does not Support Corel Draw.I got the Corel Draw Graphic Suite 12 and ACDSee 8. Is there a script that can do it with corel draw?
I have a couple of thousand old cliparts in .wmf format that I have to convert to .ai. What I need to do is simply open the .wmf, store it as .ai in exactly the same location.
Actions didn´t work because the files are in mutliple folders and subfolders. "Actions" keeped saving all the ai-files in the same folder. Which is kinda weird since this doesn´t happen when using the same action in PS.
Sure, there are some quality issues with converting wmf to ai - but for what we´re plannning the quality is sufficient.
CarlosCantos script at [URL]..... looked like the thing to do. Loaded it in apple script, patched the lines to open .wmf and saved it in the Illustrator script folder, but all I got was a bunch of error messages.
I have numerous subfolders that contain "Thumbs.db folders or are empty;" can I safely delete them?

View 19 Replies View RelatedI just installed the trial of LR3 and I'm already having problems. When I try to "import" photos, my pictures don't show up. All that shows up in the preview thumbnails are grey boxes where my pictures should be. LR acts like it is loading my pictures, but when the pictures should be fully loaded, there are only grey boxes. If I hit "uncheck all" they will begin to re-load, but still the pictures will not show up. If I go to "Develop", the levels and such of the photo will show up and I can alter them, but it doesn't do anything because the photo I am editing is just a grey space! I tried altering the preferences for the file types to see if that may be it, but the pictures still did not show. I also tried using different folders of photos, but they all did this weird grey space thing.
