My blog isn't the best place to find answers to this type of problem. I can make a few suggestions but you should really ask this question on the Lightroom Forum. The Lightroom community is a really strong and active one. There will be lots of people who can give you help there. In the meantime, my friend Anita wonders if: (a) your hard drive is full (b) you are trying to import to a read-only drive (c) you are trying to import CMYK or other unsupported file. Here's the link to the Lightroom forum: http://forums.adobe.com/community/lightroom Luanne Hi Gina,

I have read and reread all the tutorials n this and I always get the same result. "The following files were not imported. Could not copy file(s) to requested location." This makes me want to scream. And there are no trouble shooting tips on this issue. Does ANYONE know what the problem is? DESPERATE FOR HELP!

When shooting in JPEG there's no problem, but when shooting in RAW, LR eliminates all picture settings done on camera. I work with a Canon 1D MKII N. Please assist. Question:

I hope this helps. Luanne David,

I have recently started using lighroom and love using it. I have some larger camera files though and a mac G4 which is a touch slower. I was wondering if there is a feature in lightroom which lets you edit a smaller version of the raw file. I notice that it sometimes takes a while for the rendering of the full image. Since my camera takes both Raw and jpg simultaneously; would there be the option to develop the raw in a smaller version/preview version (thus decreasing rendering time) and then when all final adjustments are done - it converts the final full sized Raw image?

If anyone reading this blog wants to comment on those questions that is fine. But if you really want to get the answers, this isn't the best place to do it. The best place would be on the forums. I highly recommend that you copy and paste your questions into a post for the Lightroom forum. http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx/.3bc2cf0a/ Thanks for reading my blog. This blog is really meant to expose learning materials and resources, not to do tech support. I do like to read the questions so I can see what kinds of things people are trying to learn. But I don't want you to get your hopes up that I will be answering tech support questions here. Luanne Hey there Allan, David, Peter, Ninescu, et al,
