So is current name L1000001.dng and upwards (i.e. starts at 1)? If so, copy
all files to a new folder a use a third party file batch renaming
programme.... Something like "replace L10*****.dng with L11*****.dng" and
that should keep the frame numbers.....

OK. Home and doing some work to get images renumbered and into LR4.

 

If you remember, my M8 burped on me and insisted on having something changed
and the only way I could get it done was to reset the internal image/file
counter, and now I must deal with the image file names. which I wish to
reset ..

 

I tried this once and got some really bizarre numbering patterns..

 

What I want is:

Starting at my first designated image.. 

L1000001.dng

Next image : L1100002.dng

Next image : L1100003.dng

And sequence up from there..regardless of the number of cards/file locations
I use...

 

What I got was. L1000001-1 through something else, then L1000002-1 through
something , then more of the same.. Sometimes by date, sometimes I think
randomly ( I realize this is wrong, but not right is not right and I could
care less what rationale was used to make them not right)

 

Anyone have more specific instructions than what I have already read, tried,
not understood ( obviously) and screwed up?

 

I can import from the cards, or put the images in a file ( using Windows
copy/paste commands) and import from there. I do not care which..

 

Windows 7 and LR4.0
