Lightroom :: Receive Edited Original Raw Files

Mar 26, 2014

I received some exported jpgs with presets (edited files). I was supposed to receive the edited original raw files.
 
I am still learning LR but if they sent me the catalog file (lrcat) would that allow me to "zero" out all the edits they did to the files I have or would they still have to send me the originals?

Lightroom :: How To Find Recently Edited Files

Mar 17, 2014

I have a lot of images in my library. Last night I was working on a picture, I had to force restart the computer this morning.Just wondering if there is a way  like "previous import" to show the images "Developed"
 
I don't use smart collections much. Could that be set up as an attribute? Like the way Itunes has last played in decending order.
 
I'll have to scroll through 5,000 images now to find it and export to PS for some final work.

Lightroom :: Can't Import Edited Files From Photoshop (CS5)

Jun 18, 2013

Using Win7 64-bit O/S.  My usual procedure from LR4 after editing is to export to Elements 9 catalog using the Cntl-Shift-E commmand.  I rename the file as it suits me then export to my hard drive location by pressing "Export".  I then go to PSE and get the message "New files have been found.  Do you want to import?" Clicking yes adds the file to my Library.  After installing LR5, I can't import edited files from LR5 OR Photoshop (CS5).

Dec 26, 2012

I see a picture in LR4. Open with PS CS3 and crop it, save and close. Back in LR the picture remains in its unedited crop in both gallery and loupe views. If I reopen in PS the crop I made is still there. How can I preview the edited file in the new crop in LR?

Lightroom :: Photoshop No Longer Returns Edited Files

Dec 21, 2013

After sending files to Photoshop for further editing, use simple "save" command to return them to Lightroom. That used to work but now only JPEG files do round trip, not raw files (DNGs) although round tripping to Elements works fine. Photoshop is saving them to my catalogue instead.

Adobe agent spent more than an hour tinkering with my computer before giving up. Tried to blame use of DNG but this is an Adobe invention. Also said to use synchronise folder command as a work round but this restores deleted files as well. He promised to "escalate the problem" and I would be called back, but that was a week ago.

Lightroom :: Delete From Disk For Edited Files - How To Undo

Jan 31, 2013

Working on an iMac in LR3, I thought I was deleting one unwanted file from disk, but actually had all 22 edited images highlighted and deleted them all.  I need to undo 'delete from disk' on edited files, however 'undo' is greyed out and command Z is ineffective.  I see them all in the trash and the preview shows how they appeared with my edits.  When I did this once before, I moved images out of trash back into original file on the hard drive and reimported into LR3, however the edits were not maintained.  I need to retain these edits (days of work!) so how do I undo my mistake?

Lightroom :: How To Start Editing Previously Edited Image Files

May 21, 2012

When NEF (raw files) in LR4 are edited, it generates two additional files: tiff and jpg (by "save as").  Later on, when I want to furhter edit those images, how do I start with?    Obviously, I could re-edit from history panel of the orignal NEF file or tiff file using CS5.  I wonder which approach is more efficient or convenient?

Lightroom :: Using Another Computer To Access A Catalog Or Files?

Aug 3, 2013

I have LR installed on my MacPro and the Mac just died (graphics card issues). I'm going to just buy a new Mac, though I'm trying to figure out the best way to access everything in LR until then. All of the images and photos are stored on a separate internal drive that I can take out and access via a docking station.
 
1. Does the license for LR allow me to install a 2nd copy on my Mac notebook?

2. If I place a copy of the LR catalog file on my Mac notebook and plug the photos/videos drive into a docking station connected to my notebook, will everything open up?

Lightroom :: Catalog Should Keep Track Of All Visual Files

Feb 27, 2013

Lr 4.3 seems to reject (video) files it cannot open, in a Catalog. 
 
A Catalog should contain ALL files, pictures, photos, videos alike.

I do not like the concept of rejecting files. This way e.g . old video files are excluded from a catalog.

How am I to catalog the rejected files?

Lightroom :: DNG Files In Trash - How To Get Back In Catalog

Jun 30, 2012

I just mistakenly deleted all my 5000 dng files, and some xmp files are in the trash too. How do I get them back in the catalog? My last backup says it was after I had deleted them (apparently I set it to auto backup?) My only excuse is that I was in an accident 2 days ago. Maybe shouldn't be doing much in Lightroom~!

Lightroom :: How To Safely Convert CR2 Files To DNG After Import From Catalog

Dec 8, 2012

Images on my laptop from 2 photoshoots in the studio today were EXPORTED from laptop as catlog and imported to desktop as catalog.
 
I imported without moving the files anywhere since I was instructed to move that folder to its final resting place.
 
The 125 images were importred into LR4 but I see they are still CR2 files.
 
Is there a way to convert these to DNG inplace? or is it safe to re-import these. I don't want the side car gig.

Lightroom :: 5 - EXCLUDE Particular Folders / Files From Being Included In Catalog?

Dec 21, 2013

How can I EXCLUDE particular folders/files from being included in the Lightroom 5 catalog?
 
I want to be able to specify paths and/or filename patterns that should NEVER be indexed in the catalog: not that they don't show up under certain circumstances, just that they are NOT THERE (in the catalog) to begin with!!
 
I also do NOT want to have to respecify these criteria when "synching" the catalog; criteria should be PERMANENT (or at least 'til they're changed in LR preferences).
