Subject: RE: bizarre lightroom mystery


[...]
I took a break, came back to Lightroom to have another look-see, and I
couldn't find a lot of the frames I had downloaded in my Lightroom
catalogue--including the frames that I had rendered and exported as
jpegs.

You need to clarify a couple of things for me, because you're talking about
frames you downloaded and frames you exported. What do you mean by
downloaded? Do you mean the frames you imported into the catalogue?

Sorry to be so confusing, Bob. Yes, I mean the frames I imported into the catalogue.



Next, when you say you can't find the frames you exported, do you mean you
can't find the originals in the catalogue, or you can't find the jpegs
themselves? Or both?

I mean I can't find the original frames I imported into the lightroom catalogue--they disappeared from the catalogue after I rendered and exported them as jpegs to my desktop. These missing frames that were rendered and exported as jpegs are still on my desktop.



You also say you "couldn't find a lot of the frames", which suggests that
you can find some of them. What is different about the missing ones? Can you
spot any pattern?

The missing frames were more interesting to look at. :-) Other than that, I can't spot any pattern, which is weird to be sure.


It sounds to me as though you've imported them successfully, but for some
reason you've imported them to a different place than usual, or
inadvertently changed the settings so that they're didn't copy them from the
source media but left them in place, or perhaps you or the cat have
inadvertently & unknowingly deleted the collection they were in when you
were editing them.


Perhaps you're right, and I did something unknowingly; it's happened before. Still, I don't recall even thinking about deleting any of the frames from the four cards I downloaded. I delete much later in my workflow. I'm still looking and flagging and deciding. I have a feeling this might remain a mystery.

Cheers, Christine
