Hi everyone.
I recently needed a new computer, so decided to get my first mac. I also subscribed to Adobe CC getting the lightroom and PS deal. Both downloaded and opened up fine, but when I plugged in my card reader and tried to import the same was I used to on my old machine (windows 7, LR 3) lightroom just shows the previews before quickly telling me it could not perform the import as the files could not be read. They are raw files from a 5d3.
I also tried plugging in my external drive and importing old files from there, same result.
I've looked on the help sites, and several people seem to suggest its something to do with my preferences, but as I'm still finding my way around, I've been unable to find and alter them yet.
Please will someone talk to me like I'm 3 years old and hold my hand whilst walking me through this!
thanks
Mike
