Lightroom :: Checkbox Setting For How To Import Keywords

Jan 8, 2013

I just duplicated a bunch keywords upon importing a month worth of photos from a remote project.   I assume this is because LR has no idea how to handle them other than importing them in a flattened state.  I suggest a checkbox that tells LR whether or not to look for an existing keyword of the same spelling in its structures before creating another one.  If it then finds multiples, it would be easy enough for it to figure out the correct keyword based on context.
 
I have many nested keywords and have found the nesting to be pretty much useless in the real world, but it is a great organizational tool.   It allows about the same grouping functionality as collections but without the messy accumulation of collection names that were only used once.

Lightroom :: Import Keywords From 3 To 4?

May 12, 2012

I have just upgraded from LR3 to LR4.  My LR3 keywords are not showing up in LR4.  Found Import Keywords dialog but cannot find the folder/file with the LR3 keywords in it.  Is there a folder/file name I can search for to locate LR3 keywords?

Lightroom :: How To Import Jpg In LR5 (cc) Without Keywords

Mar 17, 2014

When I import jpg photos Lightroom automatically also imports all keywords. How can I stop this? The reason I don't want them is that I actually want to re-do all of my keywords/imports. I know it's a big pain, but I feel that it needs to be done, as I've learned how to do things more properly (in theory).

Lightroom :: Add Keywords From Folder Names During Import

May 21, 2013

I am new to LightRoom and am about to import more than 600 folders.These folders on the disc have names that relate to the content, and I was wondering if it is possible to add the folder names as keywords during import?
 
So if a photo is in /Weddings/New York/Chris and Charlie Hansen it would be tagged with 'Weddings, New York, Chris and Charlie Hansen' as keywords during import.
 
Naturally I would like this to happen dynamically so when import hundreds of folders in one go, the keywords are assigned as relevant. should I do it manually after import (which is of course possible, but quite a bit of work).

Lightroom :: Migrating Keywords From Bridge - Import XMP Along With Files

Dec 11, 2013

I'm finally incorporating LR to my Bridge / ACR / PS workflow.I have a very detailed keyword tree that I use in Bridge. This tree is organized in a hierarchical manner, and some of the keywords have synonyms or in case of taxonomy, common and latin names separeted by " ;"
 
I imported the keyword list into LR and also selected the option to import the xmp along with the files. The problem is that LR is now creating a new keyword for every word I have in the list!
 
I think one of the issues is that ";"  is an illegal caracter in LR, but I'm not sure how to fix it without having to rewrite the entire thing. Also, is this  the only issue?

Changing the keyword list only will not fix it because I have thousands of images with these keywords already, and it would be impossible to redo them all.
 
My plan is to fix this and delete everything from the catalog before I import the files again.

Lightroom :: Keyword Synonyms Created As New Keywords On Import

Feb 6, 2013

I just exported a large batch of images sized for submission to Alamy.  I had the images that were created by the export, imported back into Lightroom. 
 
The problem.  All the keyword synonyms that were exported in the images, created new stand alone keywords in the keyword list - bad.
 
I had all my keywords nicely organized into 12 neat groups.  Now I have a couple of hundred top level keywords because of the synonyms.
 
Can this be prevented?

Lightroom :: How To Select Multiple Keywords To Add To Images Without Keywords Collection

Aug 1, 2012

Lightroom has a collection containing all images without keywords.

As soon as I apply a keyword to images they instantly disappear from the collection. This is alright when I only want to apply a single keyword, but how do I stop it happening when I want to apply multiple keywords to the same image(s)?

Lightroom :: How To Stop LR From Changing Setting / When Import

Oct 20, 2012

Whenever I import photos the exposure and other settings are changed.  I have resete every default setting I can find for any kind of preset.I tried to uninstall by dragging to the trash can (Mac OS) and reinstalled to try and clear the issue.  Not sure this was the correct process as it didn't seem to wipe everything out.  Don't know what setting got changed along the way.  Just trying to get everything back to default so that my photos aren't arent manipulated before I can even get them to the develop module.

Lightroom :: 4.4. - Purpose Of (Store Presets With Catalog) Checkbox?

Apr 20, 2013

I am running Lightroom 4.4 on Windows 7x64. I have heard that under preferences its better to uncheck the box that says "store presets with catalog" because it is better to have the presets not tied to and/or embedded in a specific catalog.

However, I noticed that whether the box is unchecked or checked, the presets are always stored in their own subfolder separate from the catalog. Specifically, if the box is checked the path is: "C: Drive"->Lightroom, if the box is unchecked the path is: "C: Drive"->Users->"username"->AppData->Roaming->Adobe->Lightroom. So the presets are not embedded in the catalog file in either case, they are just stored in subfolders in different places (albeit in one case it seems user specific and in another it seems global). So what is the real point of the "store presets with catalog" checkbox?

After checking the box, as I paint, the red color is no longer there.
 
Instead, I can barely make out a very faint pink that does not appear to cover the image. It no longer paint is red.

I have closed and reopened LR and I have warm and cold booted my computer (many times).  The red is gone.

Lightroom :: Tethering Import (Auto) Forces Change To DNG - Can't Find Setting To Change

Mar 12, 2013

I am trying to set up auto importing by tethered shooting with a Canon 1Ds (but don't think brand and camera matter.)
 
I never use DNG, and am not aware of, and after a lot of searching, cannot find anywhere in the LR4.3 preferences at which I specified DNG conversion. In the Auto0Import dialog there is a File-handling tab that offers one choice: how to spell the dng suffix. The files I want to import will come in as CR2., and testing this with other folder destinations and with Canon's EOS Utility prove that the camera is "sending" CR2 files.

Unfortunately there is no direct way to go from Bridge to Premiere Elements either.

Photoshop :: Is There An Import Setting For RAW And JPEG? [LCD Calibration]

Feb 26, 2008

have a new Nikon Camera. using flash taking photos inside. For some reason the Histogram on the back of the camera is short of any light pixels, ie they're all grouped in the dark to centre of the histogram, ie the photos are dark. Thing is they look great on the back of the LCD screen and it seems the photos are correctly exposed.

Okay here is the question, does Photoshop have any settings at all, anywhere, which could give the user flexibility in altering any brightness settings when files from a digi camera are imported? I'm thinking a setting for import in photoshophas may have been set too low, hence a dark photo, because the difference between the back of the camera and the image popping up in Photoshop is massively different.
I'm assuming that it's no, so I can rule it out and concentrate on what Nikon have to say.

I can see all my photos and all the adjustment history and I can see my library of keywords.  However, none of my photos show the key words that I previously assigned to them. 
 
I am not sure whether there is a file that I need to restore from the backup somewhere.

Lightroom :: PSE10 Keywords In 4?

Mar 8, 2012

I am very happy with some 200 keywords that I use in PSE10 under Win7/64 on over 20k images.  Is it possible, in LR4, to pick up files with keywords written to metadata, and work with them in LR4 (selection, editing, etc.) WITHOUT damaging or "upgrading" the PSE10 catalog?  If yes, could PSE10 pick up keywored changes made in LR4?  
 
Or do you have to commit to one program or the other?
