Lightroom :: Catalog Modification - Move All Pictures To Date System
Aug 27, 2013
I just added to the catalog a series of folders containing pictures.
What I was hoping is that Adobe LR was going to copy all those pictures and put them into "my pictures- > year -> date" so that I will have all my pictures organized by date. [ t)
However, adobe LR have just added all those pictures using their original location (i.e. the folders where i had them), and therefore the automatic organization by dates that i was expecting didn't happen.
I would like to move all the pictures to the "date system".

I'm trying to build some export presets with a naming convention to include the current system date, eg: YYYYMMM-Title-Custom Text. This convention is oftened required for photo club, local, national & international photo competitions. The only date function I can find is the 'capture date'. Is there a way to modify the Export Filename Template Editor to include 'current system date' ??

I recently set up Elements 12. Prior to this I used elements 11. In that catalog I have more photos that I don't want. So I decided to export the ones I want then import into PSE 12. As I do this many of the dates on the pictures change from the date taken to the current date. I have tried several different ways and can't stop the dates changing. I am putting them into mobile albums in PSE 12 if that makes a difference.

I typically import my photo's from my camera and reorganize the photos by date.
However I just had several thousand old printed photographs scanned.
I have:
1. Imported the photographs into a seperate new catalog2. Labeled all the photographs with keywords
3. Metadata->Edit Capture Time so that the capture time is now the correct date
Now I would like to reorganize the photo's into folders by date the usaual yyyy/yyyy-mm/yyyy-mm-dd by the capture time date.
I have tried to import them into another catalog either by either "Import Photo's and Video" or by "Import from another catalog" either way the new catalog has the folders by date that the photographs were scanned not by the capture time that I changed.
How do I do this change the folders to be by capture date?

I would like to add notes to some pictures in my Lightroom catalog. I know how to use keywords, but in some cases keywords are not enough. For example if you want to note the names of a group of persons from left to right. You can enter the names as keywords, but then the names will be sort alphabetically - so you have the names, but later no information who is who on the picture! I would like to enter notes to some pictures, but don't know how I can do that in Lightroom? I think about many cases where notes would be useful. Another example is, if you would like to describe a situation, which the picture shows (What happened there? Background information to the picture or something like this). You only can enter keywords, but you are not able to enter some sentences. Any existing solution or could this be a new feature in Lightroom? I prefer to add notes to the Lightroom catalog not directly into the metadata (like EXIF or XMP).

I have lr 4 on my pc. I upgraded to lr 5 on my mac. I have the upgrade, but no catalog. I went back into adobe and downloaded lr 4 on my mac. Still no catalog.
Do I have to physically move the catalog from the PC to the mac and then apply the upgrade?

I had LR3 running on my laptop, but due to slow performance, I got a new machine and just installed LR3 and would like to move the Catalog over. I backed up ALL of my pictures to the new machine already (JPG, PSD, RAW, etc...) So I have all of the files on the new machine, but I'm not sure the best method to get only the RAW files back into LR3 like I had them on my old machine.
I can do an import of each folder, but that would take forever!

In Lightroom 4, I would like to copy a catalog from machine 1 to machine 2, and while someone else is working on machine 1, I would like to create a collection on machine 2, and then just move that collection back onto machine 1's original catalog. The user on machine 1 is also making collections, so if I just copied the catalog back from machine 2 when I was done, it would destroy the new collections on machine 1, so I think I want to just move the collection I create on machine 2.

I'm considering adding a MacBook Pro Retina to my hardware setup. To date all my LR3 work is on a desktop and laptop using Win 7. If I add the MBP and run a Mac version of LR on it can I still move the catalog back and forth between the Mac and Windows machines? One option is to use Parallels on the Mac but looking for all the alternatives and potential issues before I bite the bullet.

I want to move my Lightroom catalog from my old PC to my new iMac.
The catalog contains only images located on a NAS.
I can connect to the NAS from both computer, but when I'm trying to ´import the catalog I get the message "Lightroom could not import this catalog because of an unknown error" I use the same versions of Lightrrom on both computers.

I noticed a problem with LR5.2. When creating a catalog for travel with dynamic image rendering, if you want to add some pictures in this catalog it doesn't recognize the existing images, so we have the exact same selection between "all images' and "new images". I made a few tests and with a normal catalog there is no problems but apparently the dynamic images are not recognized as existing images.

In the map module, I put a selection of pictures on a location, but I didn't find the way to drag the group to adjust the location.
This can be done with an individual picture : see screen cap below.
But it cannot be done with a group.
I tried several usual modifier key (alt, shift...) but all I can do with a group is navigating through the map.
Plus when the thumbnails of the groupe are displayed, one cannot cycle back from the first picture to the last one. See screen cap below :

I would like to ask you some more questions.
1.When I am in the Library Mode, and on the left side, how do I move pictures from one folder to another, and how do I rename a folder?
2. How do I rename a picture?
I am watching the Adobe T.V.she doesn't pause so I can ask a question. LOL LR is harder to learn than I thought it would be but I'll get there!

I re-organized my PC. Now, I have all of my photos on my "C" drive. They used to be on another drive. After importing from my old catalog, I lost all of my develop work. My photos are all unchanged from when I imported them as raw files from my camera.Here are the steps that I did:
1. Export the 3.4.1 catalog
2. Format the hard drive and re-install Windows
3. Install a fresh version of Lightroom 4.4
4. Import from my 3.4.1 catalog ("Import from another catalog")
How can I recover my work?

I'm importing pictures from different cameras into the same catalog. I set the world time on both cameras so they could seamlessly integrate into one catalog by time. What setting do i need to choose in the catalog to make the pictures from the 2 different cameras integrate by time shot?

As I've been adding photos to my catalog from my iMac's internal hard drive, I've asked LR 5 to import them while "MOVING" them. Not "Copy as DNG", but MOVE. The Move feature simply makes a copy of them and leaves the files still on my hard drive. Why? This didn't happen in earlier LR editions.

LR 4
I need to move a bunch of pictures located in different sub-folders on Drive C: to my new 2Tb Drive D:
I try to move it in LR via the import function with MOVE. But, they are all greyed out (not selectable) and when I try to move 1-by-1 by right-clicking on a picture, a message is displayed telling me that the picture is already in the catalogue. I know it is already in the catalogue. All I need to do is to move it to another HDD.
How would you do this? I have just thought of deleting all files in the catalogue and import them then, but it just does not feel right.

Inside VS 2010 the datetime components format the date string as "dd/MM/yyyy"
Inside autocad 2012 the date formatting is "dd/MM/yyyy"
but inside the .net appication that I am writing, the date.now returns "MM/dd/yyyy" and the compents also reformat to "MM/dd/yyyy" so I end up with lots of "invalid date string" errors

In LR, my photos are stored in folders named by date. Ex : 20120913
Sometimes, I run over photos that are not where they belong. Ex : a picture from 2010-01-01 misplaced in the 20110720 folder.
I am sure there are quite a few misplaced pictures in my catalog.
Is there any easy way to find them and move them where they belong ?

I appear to have come across a problem. Elements 12 Catalog loses adjusted dates.
Feature: right click on photo --> Adjust Date and Time --> Change to a Specified Date and Time
I've noticed the catalog consistently retained dates that include a month, day, and year. However, those that have only month and year have lost the adjustment. Sadly this problem has cost hours of work on possibly over 100 photos and was unresponsive to repair, optimize, closing, and reopening.
