Lightroom 4 Import question

I have not found how to import photo's located in FILES that are in Photoshop Bridge CS 5 into Lightroom 4.

Photo's that are not in FILES import just fine.

Now, that my hair is completely Grey, give me the simple answer.

Try opening the folders and then importing.

If by "photos in files" you mean that the photos are in folders then you must open the folders so you can see the individual pictures (files) and import them. LR will not allow you to import a folder just the files inside the folder. All of this is available to you on the left hand panel on the import dialogue box.

Of course it will! Go to the drive where the images are at, select the major folder, activate include sub-folders and import.

I opened the folder to display the photo's but they failed to import. I will give it another try.

Problem solved. On this occasion I found the opened photo's greyed out, as was the import button. It was then that I found in amongst the Mass of amount of photo's, they had already been imported previously. Darn the Dunce Hat fits so good.
