Lightroom :: Syncing Moved Folder Is Not Bringing Back All Photos

Jan 26, 2014

I have moved and renamed a folder in the external harddrive. Syncing that moved folder in lightroom is not working in bringing back all the photos to Lightroom - Although all the photos exist in that folder as I have confirmed through windows explorer.
 
Another Option: If I choose "import photos to this folder option" in LR and browse to the source to that folder - the missing photos are shown as shaded back and the import button (bottom right corner) is not highlighted. Therefore I cannot select these missing photos and hence cannot import them to the folder.

Lightroom :: Moved All Photos From Structured Folder System Into One Unorganised Folder On External Drive

Jul 17, 2013

I've got about 10,000 photos that I've moved in lightroom by creating a folder called 'pictures' on the external drive using the left folders panel. I then selected all the images in the root drive on my computer and dragged them onto the 'pictures' folder on the external drive, and I expected the folder structure to come with it. Only after I realised that they had all moved into one folder. Is there a way of moving the images back into a structure without manually doing it? Here's a screenshot.....

Lightroom :: Original File Missing After Syncing Folder With PS Edit Versions?

Apr 2, 2013

I just noticed that some of my photos are missing from the library in lightroom, specifically the original versions of photos that have virtual copies edited in photoshop in folders that have since been synchronized.  Weird, and very anoying.  The files are still there (in wondows explorer) but when I try to re-import them lightroom doesn't see them, only the PS edited copies (.tif files).  I told lightroom to allow duplicates and it sees all the photos in the folder except those missing ones.  This does not happen to my PS edited virtual copies in folders that have not been synchronized.  It is not a matter of stacking, or at least Lightroom does not think the PS copies are stacked at all so I can't unstack them. How to get them back into lightroom (preferably with the accompanying development settings) and also how to avoid this problem in the future. 

PS: I import files from my camcorder using a different program because lightroom does not acknowledge that particular video file format.  That's why I have to synchronize some folders and not others.

Lightroom :: 4 Not Syncing All Photos?

Sep 25, 2012

I switched to LR4 right after it came out and I have never had any issues with it.  A few days ago I noticed that my syncing isnt working properly and it is making what is supposed to be a quick workflow take forever.  I import with a preset, then change contrast, blacks and such then sync all of the images with that. (this is the exact same process I have always used and I havent had any issues before) Only a few images actually sync, then I have to keep changing the settings to get back to what I originally synced to....I thought that I must have accidentally changed one of the settings or something, but when I tried it on my other computer, the exact same thing happened...

Lightroom :: Syncing Photos And Catalogue Over Two Macs Using Box

Jan 15, 2013

There's me thinking I was dead clever. I use Box for my business filing, so have unlimited storage and can sync to my two Macs. But it turns out that Box can only sync 40,000 files, and, the killer is, it won't sync the catalogue previews file. These are things they plan to sort in their summer update.
 
So, there's me thinking I could use Box to run Lightroom on two Macs, in the field and at home, all nicely syncronised. But it's not quite going to work. I'm wondering if I can just copy the previews file back and forth over my home network, and let Box sync the rest.

Lightroom :: 4 - Syncing Photos Between External Drives

Dec 10, 2013

I've got LR4 on my MBP, but all my photos are on a network drive. I'm about to go on a two week trip but I'd like to work on photos for my son's baby book whilst there. The photos are all on a 6TB LaCie which I obviously can't bring with me, but I have a 1TB LaCie Rugged that I can bring along.  I have LR set up such that I have all my son's photos organised by weeks and months, so I would like that set up preserved whilst I'm working away from home. So I thought one way was to copy the entire catalog to my 1TB LaCie, but how do I get it to sync with the photos in the network drive when I get back home? What's the best way of doing this? It's quite a big catalog as well, about 400GB of photos and videos. Previously what I did was to copy the entire catalog to a portable drive, but I ended up having multiple copies of the library in my catalog, i.e. the same picture folders on two different drives. I had to delete the portable drive from the catalog cos they were too many differences between the 2 drives and I couldn't keep up which was which.

Lightroom :: Folder Moved In The File Pane Is Disappeared?

Mar 26, 2013

I moved a folder in Lightroom in the file pane, in Library mode and now Lightroom thinks they are missing. I looked for them in Finder and they aren't were they were and they aren't where I moved them too. I can't figure out how they just disappeared into the ether. The pictures are on a network drive, but I've done this before and Lightroom had no problems whatsoever.

Lightroom :: Edited Photo Moved From Its Original Location In The Folder To Different One

Aug 10, 2012

After I edit photos in an external editor, my photo is moved from its original location in the folder, to a different one.  The photo stays within the same folder but is moved to a new location within it.  This is really annoying as I have a couple thousand photos from a trip to Europe I have been going through, and after my external editor closes and I am returned to LR, I have to find the photo which has been moved to some random spot so I can put it back to where it originally was.  I want to keep my photos organized by location, so it really sucks when my photos from Turkey end up with my photos from Hungary. How I can stop this???

Lightroom :: Can't Jump Back From Publish Service Folder Preview To Different Folder Preview In Grid Mode

Oct 7, 2013

Just downloaded LR 5 and noticed that I cannot jump back from a Publish Service folder preview to a different folder preview in grid mode. The only way to view photos in another folder is to restart LR 5. This only happens when I am viewing photos in a Publish Service such as Flickr.
 
I updated from LR 4 using Creative Cloud installer.

Photoshop Elements :: How To Get Back Original Folder / Sub Folder System

Feb 26, 2014

Installed Elements 12, converted catalog but now my sub folders are shown as main folders in Organizer folder view. How can I get back my original folder/sub folder system? When I look at Windows folders my system is as it was so the two don't match any more. On searching further came across more info on Community-powered support for Photoshop Family and it seems Adobe have removed the option of sub folders.

Lightroom :: How To Get All Photos Back

Dec 3, 2012

I had upgraded from LR2 to LR3 about 6 months ago. It was working great, but the other night I opened LR and it seems like it has gone back to LR2 mode. All my recent work is gone and I have work that I had done in LR2. I even have assignments that I had done last semester, 2011 work. How can I get all my photos back?

Photoshop :: Moved To CS6 And Can't Find Actions Folder

Jul 4, 2013

i'm on a Mac.  upgraded  from cs3 to cs6.  I opened a new  Photoshop file and went to do an action that I normally do with this type of file. (I have created my own action.) But Actions is no longer where it used to be — which I think was in the History area, but I'm not sure, I just go by feel. In any case, I can't find anything having to do with Actions. Where is it hiding?

Lightroom :: Can't Get Back To Other Photos After Publish A Collection In LR5

Lightroom :: Error Happens Constantly - When Looking Back In Catalog For Old Photos

Apr 21, 2013

Going back to look for photos in LR is very tedious due to this error. I fully expect this error to occur multiple times while locating a past photo.  I have to do it in steps by closing LR often, and reopening it so I don't have to start at the beginning of the search when this error occurs.  LR does not write a current position to disk until closed (it should write current), which means it forgets where I was after this error.  
 
My photos are in directories by year/date. Expanding a year to find a photo is like fully expecting this error to occur. My preferred import arrangement is year/date (to minimize the length of any one physical file list based in the way I shoot).  I don't know if it's the arrangement, but this errors a LOT.  I am on V4.4, and this error has been occurring for as long as I can remember.  The product testers are obviously not running into this error since it isn't getting fixed.  I don't think they test the left pane very well for the various directory schemes that a user can come up with.
 
My catalog previews were recently rebuilt. The catalog is around 5gb and contains all my photos.  I am using SSDs for the LR user files, catalog, raw cache, and previews. Only the actual photos are on spinners.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Processing Linework Moves Moved Points Back To Original Location?

Sep 10, 2012

Some what new to Civil 3D, so I hope I explain this correctly..

I imported points with linework and then needed to move them slightly. I unlocked the points and moved them with no problems, but I then went to re-process linework which moves the points back to their original location. I have tried relocking the points first before re-processing linework, but then it appears that nothing has happened.

Lightroom :: Unable To Move Photos From One Folder To Another?

Jun 20, 2012

FIRST: I cannot move photos from one folder to another, drag and drop does not function at all, and there is no 'move' command with a right-cllick on a photo. I can move folder locations, drag and drop on the folder view works, but I want to move individual photos. I am sure I could do it with previous versions.
 
SECOND: If I click on HELP, I simply get a box up from Adobe AIR saying: This installation of this application is damaged. Try re-installing or contacting the publisher for assistance. I am loathe to re-install as last time I did that, I had a grand hassle over number of activations, even though I am only running on my one and only machine.

Lightroom :: Imported Photos From Folder On A Server

Sep 20, 2013

I have a Lightroom catalog on each of two different computers. Each of the two catalogs have imported photos from the same "Photos" folder on a server.

There is one main folder with hundreds and hundreds of sub folders.
 
The one catalog is showing 226,186 photos and the other catalog is showing 218,732 photos.
 
I've tried syncing the computer's catalog that has 7,454 less photos imported than the other computer but I always end up with two different totals on each computer. Very frustrating since both catalogs must match.
 
One computer is a Mac and the other computer is a PC (not sure that should make any difference).

Lightroom :: Synchronize Folder Then Import New Photos

Jul 28, 2012

I am new to Lightroom, and just purchased LR 4, upgraded to LR 4.1 and catolog my photo files. After this, I uploaded some photos from a SD card to a common folder (e.g. "Uploads 2012") on my hard drive using LR. This worked well. I then used Windows Explorer to drag/drop those files into their respective proper folders (there were many files on the card that were appropriate for different existing folders on my computer).
 
Here's where the problem starts. Prior to this uploading session, I had 297 files in a photo folder. Afterwards, I had 427 photos in this same folder. Using LR 4.1, I chose to "synchronize folder", then "import new photos" (it recognizes that there are new photos in this dialogue box).  The program tells me this task is completed, but afterwards there remain 297 photos in the LR folder, and 427 photos in the location in Windows Explorer.

Lightroom :: Import Not Showing All Photos In Folder

Jan 16, 2012

I am trying to sync my folders but Lightroom is not importing all of the photos in the folder.  In one folder I have 675 photos (both jpg and CR2) and Lightroom is only importing 1.  Even though you can look at the folder in another window and see all 675 (photo below).  This is happening in several of my folders.
 
The folders that have problems have arrows that are greyed out versus solid grey arrows. If the info is needed:

- Mac Mini - OSX (Leopard)
- Lightroom 3
- Photos were in Aperature prior to exporting out to import into Lightroom
- Photos were either taken with Canon Rebel XS or Canon Powershot S3IS
- I have tried optimizing my catalog.
- I have tried remove the folder from Lightroom and re-importing.  Still only recognizes 1 photo.
  - The do not import duplicates button is not clicked
  - I have confirmed that all filters are off.

Lightroom :: Folder Shows More Photos In File Than There Actually Are?

Feb 18, 2012

I have a folder on my hard drive with 72 photos (files) in it.  When I pull this folder up in Lightroom 3, the number next to the folder incorrectly indicates that there are 73 photos in this file!?  When I "Select Al"l photos for this folder, it indicates that 72 out of 73 photos were selected.  Why does Lightroom indicate one extra photo that should not be there, and how do I correct this?  Synchronizing the folder did not fix this.
