6 Lightroom not allowing editing of external drive

I have two external drives connected to Lightroom, one is a 1 to and it's almost complete, the other is bigger and quite empty. I noticed today that

the 1 TB drive is coming as the Red menu in Lightroom. It allows me to look at the pictures but when you go to and external program (Silverefex) to change it will not allow me.

The drive works fine otherwise, I can display images in Photoshop and elsewhere, but for some reason any not in Lightroom. No idea where it started, have disengaged, restarted

unplugged, in vain. All advice appreciated.

Ok. Makes sense. To change in an external application, LR should create a new copy of the image, and your player's room. You need to move the files to another drive or remove things that you no longer need.

If you move folders of images from external drive, use Lightroom to do. Drag and drop in the files Panel.

  • Lightroom Workflow with 2 portable external drives and old Macbook Pro?

    I am considering buying two portable external drives 2 to USB 3.0 WD for use with Lightroom.  I save the original photos on the external hard drive, an and save backups of these photos on external hard drive 2.    I have a laptop MacBook Pro older (early 2011) and understand that even if USB 3.0, as my laptop drives will always use only 2.0 because of his age and will be more slow, but still OK in general.  This will be too slow to use Lightroom for my laptop to access photos that are on the external hard drive #1 for editing?  For reasons of speed, to the seller for external drives has suggested that I have first save my photos on my laptop computer, edit them there using lightroom and then then save original photos of external drive (as the teacher) and two external drive (as backup).  He then suggested that I delete photos from my laptop to keep storage here low.  That looks like it would defeat the purpose of Lightroom, and I would say even not sure if links with my changes would remain unchanged.  (I'm new to Lightroom).  The seller said that he was not a user of Lightroom.   Please advise on an appropriate workflow to edit, save, and back up effectively with an older MacBook Pro laptop.

    I worked with images on an external hard drive in the past and have never experienced performance problems in doing so. You can keep your catalog on the external drive as well. In this way, the hard drive can be moved from one computer to another if necessary.

    Animated images from your hard drive of the laptop on the external drive will not lose the settings because all settings are stored in the catalog. If you do all your withdraw in Lightroom and then the program keep track where the images and all settings are retained. But unless you are experiencing a kind of performance achieved by working with your images on an external drive, I do not think that there is no advantage in editing and then get out them externally.

  • Using Lightroom not allowing not complete

    Lightroom opens not in full use (allowing imports, but not allowing me to use the development module). It says that I need to log in, my account and purchase a subscription. However, I pay every month for a subscription, I paid for this month already, and my credit card is up to date. I had a shoot today and will have to end this weekend edition, but is unable to contact the support over the weekend. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me! :-)

    Hi nicoles37265921,

    Greetings.

    • Cast off when open Lightroom
    • Open creative cloud and make sure you're sighed using correct e-mail that you used to buy a subscription.
    • If you are connected and and always you get the same message, click on the gear icon in Creative cloud, then click on Preferences - logout
    • Now open Lightroom, then it will be asked to sign in again, that and it should be good now.

  • Could not import on an external drive

    Recently, when I try to import photos to save to an external drive, it did not work. The import process seems to pass very quickly and then the file numbers are numbered with an error message. I can import fine on the internal hard drive and then move the files to the external drive. It only started happening. Any ideas?

    Yes indeed, "cannot be read' is a WRITE permissions problem.

    You did not check the permissions of the appropriate folder. You select PHOTOS 2015 as destination folder in Lightroom, and then you check the folder 2015 (another name) for permissions.

  • Lightroom not allowing me to import duplicates of tif

    Hello!

    History - long boring, but I have shot and edited a number of images in lightroom, then open from lightroom in PS and made a final editing and saved as TIFF in a folder outside of lightroom.

    Now, I would like to re - import these images into lightroom, but lightroom does not allow - I think because they are duplicates of images already in lightroom. However, I unchecked "Import suspected duplicates and it STILL does not." I can't understand why.

    I'm on a Mac, under 10.6.8. Lightrom 3.6 and Photoshop CS5.

    I don't know how to attach a screenshot here, but essentially all of the images are 'grey' so that they cannot be checked and imported

    Thanks for any help at all!

    Ellen

    When you export images for editing in PS, Lightroom passes your image to Photoshop. When you save (or save as) of the PS, the resulting image is added to your catalog, even if you save to a different folder. This is why it won't let you import. You try to import a file that is already where you try to import to. It's already there, so you need not import it.

    It. I saved a step in your workflow.

  • Windows 7 64 bit does not recognize the USB external drive HARD Stor E art 3.5 "

    I buy the art external disk HARD Stor E 3.5 "and spend a few days in windows does not recognize the HARD drive. Try to connect the drive to other USB 2 ports and nothing happens. Use a USB to see if has been a problem with the USB ports, but all 3 are OK. Try it on the laptop Asus and windows 7 recognizes the HARD disk. I formatted the drive in NTFS FS. In managing records do not show the external HARD disk. What can I do to fix this?

    My laptop is a Qosmio F60

    This is a really silly situation. It can be recognized by other laptops but not your Qosmio.
    According to the description of your HARD drive when connected simply doesn t exist for your Qosmio laptop.

    Some other HDD is recognized correctly?
    What you can try is to reinstall the chipset driver, restart the laptop and test it again.

    Since when you have this problem? Some installed updates of the last days?

  • CO5110Y BIOS will not allow edits LAN or video BIOS version 5.38

    Hello

    I have a Compaq CQ5110Y with BIOS version 5.38. My problem is that I need to disable the LAN chip on board. My current BIOS will record the changes to the date and time, but it seems that it will not save the changes to the ADVANCED tab. I added a PCIe-16 video card. I tried to change the parameter by default-PCI PCIe - 16, and it will not save those or the other. I downloaded the update of BIOS 5.49 and tried to install it. I get an error message indicating that my computer does not meet the minimum requirements for this update. I replaced the original CD/DVD burner, as he would burn is no longer. I've also upgraded to 4 GB memory main. I can't find the older BIOS updates to try. No info found on the HP site regarding BIOS updates history and that they aimed to correct.

    On each startup, I get a message saying the BIOS defaults have been loaded due to a problem of error or check sum. Is there a BIOS update to fix this problem? If so, which version is, and where I can get it?

    It is a strange.

    Here's a guide that will explain the error code 9994.  I don't know if it will help you, but it's worth a try.

  • Editable RichTextField does not allow edit

    If a RichTextField can be changed?  I can't get this to work.  Here is a code:

    _rtf = new RichTextField(RichTextField.EDITABLE);
    
    _rtf.SetText("Something I will change);
    

    However, when I run the present on the device, I can focus on the field, but cannot change it (typing does nothing).  Any ideas?  If a richtextfield can be changed (I guess that one b/c it has this property)?  Is there another type, I should use?

    Thank you

    RichTextField is read-only. An EditField should fit if you want to change.

  • Can I safely delete my original my iMac Lightroom catalog if I now use more recent versions on an external drive?

    When I started using Lightroom, I installed it on my iMac - so I have the original and also Lightroom 2, 4 and 5 on this drive, and I always started Lightroom from the icon in the dock.  For the past year or so I start and work from a copy on an external hard drive, so I think it's the current version of my catalogs.

    Can I safely delete previous versions of Lightroom from my computer (I am currently free space).

    Can I reinstall Lightroom software directly on the external drive and then even that remove it from the computer - because I assume that the external drive refers to the LR-5 on the computer in order to open?

  • Siri does not find the files on my external drives

    Hiya:

    Just updated to Sierra of MacOS and I try to use Siri to search for files on my computer and as the title suggests, Siri spitting not files on my external drives (both connected via USB 3 on the back of the iMac). I tried to turn on Siri/off, Spotlight is not all excluded files, I tried signing in/out of my iCloud account. I tried to create a new user account on my Mac (which will not find anything). Permissions on my external hard drive seem ok: read/write is enabled for me, all the world and admin; "ignore permissions" is turned on.

    I'm starting to think that this is a design limitation of the software. Someone else using Siri able to search for files on your external hard drives?

    As near as I can tell, unlike the Finder and Spotlight, search Siri does not check for external drives.

  • Move the external drive of Lightroom on new server

    I use Lightroom 6 (standalone - latest version) on an iMac. All Lightroom files are on an external drive attached in a hierarchy like this:

    Photos (folder)

    Lightroom Files (folder)

    LR-2 Previews.lrdata library (folder)

    Library of LR - 2.lrcat

    Photos of LR (folder)

    1999 (folder)

    2000 (folder)

    etc.

    etc.

    I would like to move this set of the player to a network attached server and continue to access it from the iMac. Can I move the player, point Lightroom for the .lrcat file and continue? Additional measures should be taken?

    The connected server network is a Mac Mini running Mac OS Server (last).

    Thanks for any help.

    Previews and catalog file should stay together, if you don't move the previews they will be re-created by LR in any case

  • Movement music from itunes to a new external drive

    Hello!

    So there are a lot of questions in the face of this general problem, but I found no one who comes close to my situation.

    There are at present all music from my iTunes (~1.4 TB) library is shared between two external drives. I just bought a new laptop (3 TB) and would like to move - preferably not copy, I know that straight-up moving items between volumes is possible in the terminal, I don't know the right commands - all this music to the new drive. My iTunes Library.itl and the rest of the folder iTunes at the same time, are on my computer, I don't know if we keep them there or move them as well.

    I use any file "iTunes Media. Most of my library is rips of CD and downloads without loss, and I prefer to keep the organized myself (as including scans of records covers music and writing notes and other information about the record such as comments). "Keep iTunes Media folder organized" and "Copy the files into the iTunes Media folder when adding to library" is, therefore, both uncontrolled. And I think that naming a new file on the new drive as "iTunes Media" and then checking "Consolidate files" in the file > library > organize library to copy all the music she would keep the folder structure I created or transfer through the images, log files, PDF files, etc..

    Can anyone advise on what would allow me to do this with a minimum of disruption to my iTunes library (IE not having to add all and recreate all my playlists, etc., which, in itself, would take another hours 20, or whatever on top of the amount of time it will take to move all files?)

    Thanks in advance!

    OS X 10.7.5 / iTunes 12.1.2.27

    If you want iTunes to do the work (as expected), let iTunes do its work...    That would mean designate a location on the new drive for the iTunes Media folder (in the Advanced iTunes preferences pane) by using the command to "consolidate files" (-> library menu bar-> organize the library-> consolidate the files).

    IF all your current iTunes media on the external drive files are on a SINGLE volume (not two), you can copy your folder structure complete (for your iTunes media files) to the new volume of external hard drive (using the Finder).  Then with iTunes works DO NOT, unplug the old external drive and rename the new external drive exactly the same name volume as the old volume of external drive.  Basically, do the new disc looks like the old drive to iTunes.  When you run iTunes, the "routes" to its multimedia files are the same as before, so iTunes sees no difference.

    But since your iTunes media is 'shared between two external drives', you can't do it cleanly.  If a part is much more important, you could do the above with the majority only.  Now, at this point, you can use it in this way, with the new external drive as your main expansion of storage in course, and existing 'other' always connected player.  In iTunes, it seems again the same as before.

    If you want that all your media files to iTunes on the new external drive...  Copy this second folder (with your smallest part of iTunes media) structure to the new external drive (using the Finder).  With iTunes doesn't work DO NOT, unplug the 'other' external drive.  When you run iTunes, it loses track of media files in this part (but keep those songs with exclamation point in the library).  This next part may or may not work.  When iTunes spot is no longer a song file, when you try to play it, iTunes will ask if you want to locate.  I heard that if you do this for a song (by pointing to the new location for this piece), iTunes can extrapolate the locations for the other files 'disappeared' of the song.  If it does not work with the first song (or partially works), try to do it for a little more.  Worst case, you will need to add the songs in the smaller part manually.
