Recent Imports Collection does not work

Kevin Landis

When I import images, Capture One creates a Recent Imports Collection and shows the files imported. When I close and restart Capture One, this Collection is empty. Capture One does not display images in the Recent Imports Collections from the last five imports. Prior imports display correctly. 

All images import properly, and are stored in their correct location. The only problem is that they are not displayed in their Recent Imports Collection after I restart Capture One.

Thanks,

 

Kevin

    Hey Kevin,

    did you solf the proplem yet? I have the same. A big one, because as long i didn´t put the new files into userfolders i have to open "all files" to see the new files. That means my PC has to load many files (16000) - not usable.

    Thanks,

    Flo

    I have the same problem after my catalog got corrupted. After repairing and verifying ok, this empty Recent Imports on restart continues to happen.

    First, I'm running Windows 10. I don't know what your OS is. 

    The following came from Capture One support. It worked, but I don't know why. 

    I first created a new Administrative account, then opened Capture One, then created a new catalog and tested it by importing images. The catalog worked fine.

    I returned to my User account, opened Capture One, and created a new catalog. With the new catalog open, I imported the old catalog. The new catalog (with all of the adjustments, references, keywords, etc. from the old catalog) worked fine. 

    I haven't had any problems since. I hope this helps.

    Thanks advice worked fine! Also on Windows 10.

    For some reason, some albums failed to be recreated (altho the images were there), so i recreated these.

    same problem. After import, the folder recent imports is empty.

    And directly imported to folder, the images appear, but after restart c1 they are gone.
    Tried it with a new folder. same result.

    Add another one with this same problem.

    Kevin and/or John,

    Can you give a more detailed step by step as I didn't quite follow Kevin's fix.  I am confused by administrative account and then user account.

    Seems I'm a bit slow on the uptake.  Thanks in advance.

    Hi, i didn’t use multiple accounts. I just created an empty catalog and imported photos from my corrupt catalog. All from the same account.

    Hope this helps!

    John,

    Thanks for the reply.  I tried your technique, but without success.  When the new catalog was first opened, all looked good.  I added a couple of test images, and they showed up as hoped for.

    Then I closed C1, and upon opening it again, all the images were gone from the catalog and the "New" listings.

    I had tried Kevin's fix yesterday after finally understanding the procedure.  It behaved with no joy as with your technique.

    My work around is simply to created a new catalog, and used my current one as a semi-archive for my current images without added any new ones.  If I edit in the old catalog, I can drag the new variant from the catalog folder to Collections, and it will stay there through any later off/on cycles.

    A newly created catalog works just fine as long as I don't try importing from the corrupted catalog.

    Thanks much for your response.
