Opens with two side by side windows and can copy stuff from one drive to another easily.īasically it is a matter of understanding and controlling where your photos are in folders on the computer and on backup drives. When doing masses of copies of folders and drives I often use FreeCommander as it makes life less messy than using Windows File Explorer. The backup program operates automatically every 30 minutes to keep the backup warm and safe, I use the paid SE version of Syncback but there is a free version that works well. FastStone nags for donations and I did donate many years ago as it is so useful. Any jepgs or raw files worked on then get put back into same folders or other folders within the "Pictures" area. To get the year/month/day dated folders working I use the free FastStone Viewer and then start Olympus Viewer 3 or other software and point it to the folder structure that I created. Then use an automatic backup program to copy the whole "Pictures" folder to the backup drive - it only copies the changes or additions, not the whole lot all over again of course. In my case I make sure that all photos are in year/month/day dated folders within a "Cameras" folder within the default Windows folder of "Pictures". Windows key plus E gives the File Explorer, and then need to find where the heck the photos were loaded to off the card. Olympus Viewer 3 Started Discussions Forum: Threaded view: mikero Veteran Member Posts: 3,164 Olympus Viewer 3 Im. The easiest way is to use Windows File Explorer (you said "pc" so I assume Windows) and copy the whole folder of photos across to the backup drive.

I have transferred them to my computer but I can't seem to copy them to external hard drive/USB etc in order to back them up. So truly I don't know what's happening to you, maybe it's case of importing again all the stuff that's already in the Library folder to make it "stick".īy the way the face recognition seems to work well, I did Dec 24/25 and daughters and families and it was spot on all the time.Thank you. It's not your problem though, that's my doing. I think me swapping between my more usual Folder View and Library view somehow confused me and the software at the same time. Anyway, all the while if a thumbnail was seen then I could open it to the file to work on. Didn't make double copies, just somehow enabled the images. Seems odd, at one stage I seemed to have to import twice once to get stuff from elsewhere on the disk to the default Oly Viewer 3 folder under Guy\Pictures, then again when going to Library View I had to import again from that Oly Viewer 3 folder to get them into the library to see the thumbnails. The photos are in the normal folders as they should be.įirst time I've played with OV3 Library View and Importing. I got really worried and then quickly checked my folders directly on the computer. So I have just checked the library (folders) view as-well. I can view the (Panasonic) thumbnails OK and open them on the screen with no problems, so not sure what is happening in your setup. Pity that the Panasonic version of Silkypix does not see anything but Panasonic files. In Tools-Options-Basic I found it imports to C:\Users\Guy\Pictures\OLYMPUS Viewer 3Īnd when I go there via the folder view in OV3 I see my jpegs but not the RAWs and there's a good reason for that as I just noticed that I imported a Panasonic LX3 card via OV3 and I can see the jpegs, I didn't know I could do that. Right now trying to find where it imported to. If OV3 is not running then I get the "do you want to start OV3?" message, when started the left hand bottom shows the card in an orange box, and on the right the Import button starts the import, who knows where to, I never set it up for imports. * Improve stability of the following functions * Added functions to the following window * Support for Highlight&Shadow Control by TruePic VI. Just now fired up OV3 and it updated to V1.2, notes say. Then if using OV3 or other RAW converters, I use the Folder view and not their library system. I use FastStone Viewer to do all my imports, into day dated folders. In the thumbnail Album view the photos are there, but when i open the album it is empty? Any Ideas? ![]() Viewer 3 does not seem to import my photos anymore. The first few times I have used it I imported the photos and did the editing that I needed to do with not many problems. ![]() I have just started using Viewer 3 and have been getting on quite well.
