Question

getting raw+jpg together again

some of my raws and jpegs were imported in a "wrong" way: they appear seperated.

now i want to "merge" them togather again like "dng+jpg".

how can i accomplish this without reimporting these photos and losing all of the data?

    Explain "Wrong way".

    "Separated" -do you mean you see both the raw DNG and the JPG in the catalog library?

    Why is it a problem?

    Do not try re-importing (or synchronizing ) until more is known.

    yes, by that i mean, that are shown side by side, instead as "one" with the marking "RAW+JPG".

    and i still would like to know how to "merge" them or how to "seperate" them after and/or independently from an import.

    You should be able to do this in the following way, but I never tried it myself:

    1: In the preferences, uncheck the option to treat JPEGs as separate files.

    2: Right-click the folder where they reside in the folder panel and choose 'Synchronize Folder'.

    I know that the opposite does work this way (separate raw+jpeg after they were imported), so I assume it should also work if you want to 'merge' them.
