@Jeff & Shama: I’m a windows user and I simply changed(renamed) the file extension from .m4v to .mp4 and was able to watch it using QuickTime Player.

Yeah, my computer is not recognizing this video format either. Will all future videos be in this format? Say it ain’t so!

Great video!!! Do you or anyone else know what happened to the User defined sort order that used to be in Lightroom. I can’t find it in the beta 2 version. How do people change the order? I would be so happy if someone could answer this.

great video, and good tip. I have this problem though. I have a jpg file that is no bigger the the raw picture, but lightroom keeps telling me that the picture is to big for import.

Question: Why when you synchronise a folder - do the shots were already existing then show up in the library pane under previous import ‘Missing Files’?

As an example - if you have 180 files in a folder - then save a file from this folder you have been working on in photoshop under a different name - you now have 181 files in the folder. Synchronise the folder and it will of course find the extra file - but it then shows up 180 missing files as above - even though they are not missing! Weird….

Lightroom does this every time and I have no idea why or how to get rid of it. Very annoying. You can even see it briefly in Matts Video.

Casey, just go into Develop and right click your presets and press show in finder. Thats where you presets are and you can copy them as you like

Can anyone help me? I am trying to transfer my lightroom presets to another computer and I don’t know where to find that folder on my mac, can anyone let me know where to look?

Well I’ll start this again… Neither IE7 or firefox recognize the m4v format and I assume itune will open it but so far it doesn’t like the secure format.. Can you just make it a mpg and be done with it?

Emmet, Matt turned off the import dialogue in the video instruction, but I believe if you left this option on, you would have the ability to set the backup options (but I haven’t tested/confirmed that).

Matt,

When you import photos in this manner, do you lose the backup function or does the sync folders recognize that you also created a backup when you imported the initial photos and create a backup as well??
