Question

LRC did not create a new year folder when I imported images from 1 January 2022

I have my RAW files set to automatically organize "by date" into a folder LRC creates in the format "YYYY" and then subfolder "YYYY-MM-DD" in the Pictures main folder on my hard drive (Macbook Pro macOS Monterey 12.0.1).  I do not believe I have ever had a sub-folder selected in the import dialog, just the "by date" option.  See attached screenshot.

 

In the past, I am pretty certain LRC automatically created a new "YYYY" subfolder under "Pictures" when the year changed.  

 

When I downloaded photos from 1 January 2022, LRC created the subfolder 2022-01-01 for the RAW files, but put them in the existing "2021" subfolder instead of creating a "2022" subfolder.

 

What can I do to fix this?  I suspect if I just move the folders manually in Finder than the Catalog will no longer be able to find them.

 

Could it be that I am on Guam and we are 15 hrs ahead of EST, so our 1 January 2022 photos were still 31 December 2021 in the US?  I don't see how, but just can't explain it

 

Thank you,

 

Steve

I am facing the same issue!

 

How did you solve it?

I created the folder in Finder (I am a Mac user).

 

I then selected that folder in the right column of the import dialog.
