I have a network drive (which could be my issue) that hostes all my photo's.  When using organizer to rotate photo's it bogs down after 2 or 3 attempts.  Anyone have an issue with this?

What format are the files?  I have been having random problems rotating .heic files on my Windows machine.  Please explain what you mean by bogs down.  Does the program become non-responsive?

Hi Greg:

 

Thanks for responding.  I've saved and are refrencing Sony A7iv jpg and arw's.  Sony arw's are not recognized by camera raw so I used the free adobe dng converter to convert them.  I recently downloaded photoshop elements 2024.

 

So the dng's are no problem to rotate in organizer.  The sony jpg's however are.  When I say bogs down I mean I get the spinning wheel and a screen that shows a progress bar of rotate that does not complete.  I can rotate the first few but after that the spinning wheel just goes longer and longer until it does not complete the task.  I'd say after 4 attempts of rotating jpg's it just hangs up like I described.  I have to reboot the machine to get back to being able to rotate the first couple of jpg's then it hangs again as before.

 

Note, the jpgs rotate in photoshop elements just fine.  It takes me a few clicks and opening and closing each one which ends up being a realy long work flow.

 

Mike

Is your network drive an NAS?  If so, that is probably the performance problem.

Hi Greg:

 

Yes I do use a NAS and I had though about the perfermance hit of using that.  However, all my files are there in the same file folder.  So all the DNG's in the NAS folder rotate in organizer no problem, but not the jpg's.  I am hoping elements 2025 will solve this.

I will be extra careful when using my a7iv to capture my negatives rightside up the first time!  :-). I didn't think it would matter!

BTW, to save you time converting to DNG, it is possible to use the latest ACR that will work with your raw files.  See this post and follow the instructions precisely.  This post is a little out of date, so the link within it will allow you to update to ACR 17.x.  Also, for Elements 2024 you need to copy the Camera Raw.8bi plug-in file from the CC path to:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 24\File Formats

@Ethereal_Coconut1495, under the Edit>Preferences>Files dialog, do you have the Rotate JPEGs using Orientation Metadata box checked?  That may solve your problem.
