Lightroom CC acting up again!

All of a sudden it won't import any NEF files.

I was just doodling around with my new Rokinon lens taking a few tests shots. It imported fine for a while, then all of a sudden, I get this...

I'm thinking there is something wrong with the card, so I format it in cam, and the same thing happens.
Then I format it in the computer. same thing. I'm thinking the card may be shot. I take out another card. Same thing.

Then I create a temporary folder in Windows Explorer. Transfer the NEF off the card to this folder. Right click on the NEF file click on "open with Lightroom" and bang!! It imports no problem.

Why would it import an NEF from a folder but not from the card? it can't be my card reader because I can copy NEF files from the card to a folder, but not to LRCC directly....Weird!

I had that happen and was able to shut down CC, logout, wait a few minutes and log back and try the file again. It worked, so I guess either way works and achieves the same thing.
 
When in doubt, reboot.

How many times and to how many people have I said that too. My wife would have problems with her computer at school and would call me. My first question would always be "Have you rebooted the computer?" Wife "No, but I thought, tried this that and the other and it still would not work and I have been trying for an hour now." Reboot and the problem when away. Or even worse I would drive up there and reboot it and all would work. Then I got to give her the "I told you so" face

OK ... I will dare to say this

Never had to reboot on a mac - there I did it. I'm off now ;)

I've had this same problem since I started using Lightroom about a year and a half ago. I've used different card readers, different cards, I've tried formatting my cards, nothing works. I've noticed that if I shoot a large amount of photos and try to simply just import them all, I constantly run into this problem. When I do I have to shut down Lr, remove the card, put the card back in, open Lr and then start the import again. I've also noticed that if I select about 10-20 photos at a time then I usually don't have a problem...not draw back is if I'm uploading a large amount it takes time.

If any one knows a better fix I would greatly appreciate it.
