5.4 Lightroom on iMac and MacBook Pro
I have been using Lightroom on my iMac (OS X 10.7.5) with an external 4 TB drive plugged with my Lightroom Catalog and pictures stored on it. I just bought a MacBook Pro (OS X 10.9.2) and loaded my second copy of Lightroom on it.
I want to use my MacBook Pro when I travel to download the RAW files, edit and post pictures online etc. I don't have access to my catalog any when they travel. On my return, I want to have all my edited photos on my home iMac. They need not be kept on the laptop after that.
My external hard drive is too big to travel with (heavier than the laptop), but I have a smaller, that I can use for the trip. I wanted to just keep a catalog at home, but not sure of the most effective way to achieve. Any help appreciated gratefully.
You can export your images on the MBP of catalogue (file > Export catalogue) and import the catalog into your catalog master iMac. File > import from another catalog.

6 of Lightroom on iMac and Macbook
I bought LR6 and installed on my iMac and Macbook.
Adobe have just finished my license on the Macbook as they interpreted the installation as a 30 day trial.
How can I overcome this? The license allows installation on a desktop and laptop.
Thank you

New user with the iMac and MacBook Pro...
I just ordered Lightroom 3, and while I'm waiting for delivery, I did the research so that I set up correctly from the start. My husband and I are amateur photographers, not professionals. So, we have a lot of pictures, but not thousands. I take most of the photos. I do not use RAW, but sometimes my husband does. We use Photoshop Elements 8 to edition and iPhoto to produce books, export to our iPad, etc.. We have 2 computers... an iMac and a MacBook Pro. All the reading I've done, I think I should install the Lightroom Catalog to the shared drive on our iMac. All photos that we can live on this share drive (when importing we can mark with our own name so that we can each make a collection of our own photos). As I understand it, each of us could use our own space on the iMac's Lightroom to access this library shared, to make our own edits, etc.
First question... is what I said above correct and it seems like the best way to organize?
Second question... it is now quite easy to access my files from my MacBook on our home network bridge. It will be easy to access files via Lightroom when they live on the iMac but I want to use the MacBook instead?
No help to you all, experts out there would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you, Cindy
Well, wireless will be /technically/ work. Because the wireless network connection simply provides a conduit through which is an extra layer of stuff system of sent files (probably AFP or SMBFS or something) for you give access to remote files and directories, you can see the performance is not acceptable.
Some people report performance ok with remote catalogues and managed files, but many have catalog locally, with the managed pictures on drive accessible via a protocol of remote files. Despite this, I suspect that some of these people are connected via gigabit ethernet.
You will find that the network connection or the remote file system protocol may bring slow unreasonable things.
Another restriction is that, under the right circumstances, Lr will change behavior to prevent you from using it in network. I forgot the exact circumstances in which this happens (I think it was reported that in other threads). I remember that it is limited to the import dialog. It will probably cause problems for you since the paths you use will probably be impossible to distinguish from local paths, but I wanted to mention it just in case.

How to set up the iMac and macbook pro for sharing
I have an iMac desktop running a MacBook Pro runningMavericks and El Capitan. I would be grateful someone guide me through the process step by step to be able to share between these two platforms.
I know that I should probably update the laptop to El Capitan, but don't have the time to do it now.
I thank everyone for their tips and advice in advance.
Essentially, you visit preferences system-> sharing and enable file sharing

New Office 2011 &; Webroot Desktop iMac and MacBook Pro
OK, we have a macbook pro that we run MicrosoftOffice 2011.
We have now bought an iMac of office. We cannot add our 2011 buy microsoft office version for the iMac (only good for a laptop or personal computer). I need something like office 2011 for the new office.
I know there was a lot of changes there on the software on what we can and can't do...
What are the best options for going forward so I can get microsoft office 2011 or something like that, for the new office.
Also the store 'gave us"webroot and said we really, really need to have that on our desk. I am not of this opinion. Does anyone else have an opinion?
Whatever your question has to do with Boot Camp?
If you have Office for Mac questions you can ask your question in the Office for Mac forums where the Office of the Mac gurus hang out.
If you have an iMac problem you could try asking the community of iMac located here: iMac
If you are looking for just an Office program, you can try LibreOffice.
You don't need or want all third-party antivirus or programs of 'cleaning up' on your Apple computer.

Print via Wi - Fi on Photosmart Premium C309 connection problem on an iMac and MacBook Pro
Hi all
I just bought and installed a Photosmart Premium C309.
I am running the latest Mac OS 10.6.5 on two computers: an IMac and a MacBook Pro.
The printer software installation went well and I was able to print via USB cable.
Then I connected the printer to my wireless network (Modem-Router: Fritz!) Box Fon WLAN), again without problems.
I printed out a page of the control panel the printer network Test and got "no problems found. Congratulations on the successful your printer wireless installation.
But when I tried to print via the wireless network, I continued to get "printer offline".
I have disabled the firewall on the computer but no joy.
Now, I'm unable to print via the USB port that the printer is "offline".
Help!
Thank you
Problem solved! It has to do with Hello.
When you set up the printer with the HP installation wizard must install the Hello printer drivers when you are prompted to choose the drivers. Simple.
Thank you.

I have Lightroom on my iMac and MacBook Air, I just new MacBook Pro, all migrated to Pro air but will not work Lightroom until I have disable it on the Air. HOW CAN I DO THIS?
There is no such thing as disabling Lightroom 5.7. Just uninstall the software.
Looks like you have installed 6 Lightroom on two of your computers (including the MacBook Air). In this case, you must find and launch Lightroom 6 (not Lightroom 5.7 or any other version of Lightroom 5) on the MacBook Air and then in the menu help, select logout.

Probably put you the folder in the normal position inside the music. Launch iTunes while holding down the option/alt key and navigate to the iTunes Library.itl file in the folder that you moved.
