    I'm in a pickle and need help with my corrupted catalog

    Cletus, That's exactly what I was wondering because I have moved, deleted folders inside LR, and never had this type of situation. I have no idea what may have caused this, and won't even try to figuring out. I might go crazy. You said ( a corrupt catalog usually means the database itself is...

    I'm in a pickle and need help with my corrupted catalog

    I am running LR 4 and installed the entire App not as an upgrade from LR3. I am running it on a Mac 10.8 and have [B][B]approximately over 65k images. However, recently I re-organized the root of my folders because I realized I had too many sub-folders. I moved the image folders to several...

    Hi Jay, Thanks, I checked the settings in Preferences as you suggested and yes, I have "Show Badges", as well as the rest of the other items in this area. Well, I kept synch the folder and now I can say that I have the "keyword symbol" attached to all the images in my catalog. However...

    Upgrade from LR 3 to LR4 keyword symbol not displayed on images on LR4

    I hope someone can help me out. I already have searched for some ideas on Google but quite frankly I can't make out the few things I found out. I installed LR4 and I noticed that once the installation was completed the catalog was imported. However, I noticed that the images in thumbnails or...

    images look soft/blurry when viewing in Library but tack sharp in develop mode?

    Victoria, I'm aware of the difference between the two modules;however, I'm encountering something totally different but as I can see I'm not alone. I have been using LR almost daily, but a week ago something happened that it has changed. I noticed that while I was in the Library module (grid)...

    Why are images displayed not as sharp in Library module

    Gene, I don't have a clue why this is happening, but I'm not the only one. I found another tread with similar experience: images look soft/blurry when viewing in Library but tack sharp in develop mode? I don't know exactly what you mean to move the Previews someplace else. As I said, just for...

    Why are images displayed not as sharp in Library module

    I never had this problem before so let me walk you through how it all started a couple of days ago. I was in the Library module viewing images in the Grid mode. Then when I selected and an image I noticed that the image was trying to get in focus. This was very briefly just a couple of...

    My images are not too sharp when viewing them on the Grid in the Library module

    I noticed today after I opened LR (Library module) that the images in the Grid were trying to be on focus. The movement was very fast. Then ever since the images are not as sharp. As a matter of fact, I tried to view the same using Image Browser, and what a difference. I cannot use DPP...

    Adding ISO Country code, State, City in the Metadata

    I just watched a video from AdobeTV and it showed how to add ISO Country code, city, State on images, but somehow it doesn't work for me. I am aware that I could do the same by using "keywords", but I was curious using the metadata approach. It seems that after I select the images in the...

    Newbie to take the plunge

    Louie I appreciate your 2 cents, trust me every cent counts, lol. Can you expand more about what you said '"stakes only work when the source that you have selected is a folder". Do you mean to do this in the HD, and not referring to "stack" after imported in LR. I'm familiar with "stacking"...

    Newbie to take the plunge

    Mark, Just to be clear I on purpose imported a folder w/o content in order to establish a folder if you will. However, I just realized that I was making a big mistake. I was selecting the Parent and some of the subfolders. Well, it so happened that LR will select "all" the subfolder in a the...

    Newbie to take the plunge

    As I said, I select specific folders,but somehow LR picks up additional folders, that I didn't not select. I am sorry if I didn't make myself clear. Basically, you have taken a screenshot exactly where the "Preview window" show folder that I didn't select on my HD. I went to the File and on the...

    One more thing I'm wondering if anybody can tell me why this is happening. Whenever I'm importing files from a disk this is what I've been encountering. I select a Parent Folder, along with 4-5 subfolders containing several folders. I would like to continuing importing selecting several...

    LR freezing up

    I can't believe it everything was going great until now. I am facing a new problem every time I tray to execute a command after opening LR. It will freeze up. For example if I try to select a folder to be imported, I choose the folder but if I try to edit Metadata Presets, or go to View...

    Newbie to take the plunge

    Paige I already have assigned several keywords to the images I'm practicing with. Once I set the parameter for the Smart folder, then in matter of speed of lightning I'm able to see the images that I have selected based on the keywords. Does this make any sense? Based on your previous...

    Newbie to take the plunge

    Thanks, I think that my confidence level still very weak, lol...... I know, I know if anything fails, I can always create a new catalog, but deep down it hasn't sunk in that LR doesn't do anything to the master images. I have been testing playing with the Smart Collections, and I'm very...

    Please bear with me. I have image folders stored on an Ext HD, in a parent folder named My images.I have folders dating back to 6 yrs. I usually filed the folders by date, and named the folders by the location or subject. I'm wondering if I should keep this system before importing my...
