    Merging keywords with images

    Johan: Thank you for your reply. I can provide additional informaton. I discovered that the reason Lightroom cannot find my files is that because it had changed the filename. One example: in Lightroom a file name is 050721-untitled-0001.jpg, while on the hard drive it is 050721-0001.jpg --...

    Merging keywords with images

    I should have added to the above post that the only problem is with the raw files and not the processed images in the same folder.

    Merging keywords with images

    I have a folder of over 10,000 images which I discovered I could not open – the preview images have the little exclamation point symbol in the upper right indicating the images can’t be found. I searched my hard drive for their location, but could not find them. I then did a global import of...

    Upon opening catalog obtained from different folder than to which it is saved

    Phil: Thank you for your reply, but I already have all files, etc. on the new computer. The problem is that Lightroom gets it's catalog from one folder, but saves it to a different folder.

    Drive designation changed and now can't access images

    Actually, I found a fix myself. A Google search told me to go to Windows Disk Management and to right-click on the drive E and then a menu would let me change it to D. I tried it and it worked.

    Drive designation changed and now can't access images

    I keep my images on an external drive which has been identified as "D" in the Lightroom catalog in the past. I now find that my computer recognizes that drive as "E", and I cannot access my files because Lightroom thinks they are in "D". What do I do?

    Lightroom sends to wrong version of Photoshop

    I upgraded to LR4.3, but now LR does not recognize my version of Photoshop. When I click Ctl-E, or otherwise go to the External Editor, the External Editor tries to open in Photoshop CS4, but can't, because I don't have PS CS4. I am running PS CS6. I can't figure out how to change it. Note that...

    Identifying image files not in Lightroom

    I did a search of my computer and found I had 1',675 files in Lightroom, but found 14,124 in Bridge, a difference of 3,449 images, although, I don't know which ones they are. Is there any easy way to identify which of my image files I have not yet imported to Lightroom? Thanx.

    I would like to make more use of Lightroom, but I have a long history of using Bridge and all my image files have Bridge keywords. Is there any way one can convert Bridge keywords into a Lightroom format?
