Grant,
There's a shotwell option to rename to lowercase on import maybe it got
renamed to lowercase?

How are you importing the photos? Drag-and-drop or with File -> Import

It looks to me that you're attempting to import the same file (not a

you're attempting to import is already in the library.

locate only finds the file in my target folder, not in my destination
folder:
# updatedb && locate IMG_20130303_144420
/home/grant/photodump/IMG_20130303_144420.jpg

But it refuses to import the file with the log message indicating it
has already been imported. Could shotwell have renamed the file when
it was copied to the destination folder? I'm on 0.14.1.

There's many reasons. At the end of an import, Shotwell should give
you a
list explaining why photos were not imported. In Shotwell 0.14, it
will
offer to save a text file giving a full report. The most likely
cases are
that the photos were byte-for-byte duplicates of other photos
(Shotwell
won't import duplicates), that they are not photo files (corrupted
or named
incorrectly), or that Shotwell doesn't support their data format
(GIF is the
most prominent for example). -- Jim
Hi Jim, I import and copy my photos from /home/grant/photodump/ to
/home/grant/Pictures/. I have: # updatedb && locate
IMG_20130303_144420
/home/grant/photodump/IMG_20130303_144420.jpg # "Shotwell Import
Log.txt"
says: /home/grant/photodump/IMG_20130303_144420.jpg duplicates
existing
media item /home/grant/photodump/IMG_20130303_144420.jpg Can you
help me
reconcile this? - Grant
I imported/copied a large number of photos into shotwell from a
folder and I
was about to delete the folder but I noticed at least several
photos that
did not import or copy. Why would some photos import and not
others? - Grant
