Back up photos and music on external drive

I stop time machine to save and then view my photos on my external hard drive? also my itunes library?

No, but your best work of iTunes and iPhoto libraries should not be on the same drive as the backup. A drive can fail at any time.

  • Can photos and music will be loaded into the memory of the dashboard?

    Can photos and music will be loaded into the memory of the dashboard?

    Hello Tom,

    The internal memory of the Dash device is not accessible to the user. Therefore, pictures and music files cannot be uploaded to the internal memory of the dashboard.

    However, the USB port on the Dash unit allows you to view photos or listen to music stored on a USB key.

    Thanks for your response

    I upgraded my phone to version 10.3.1.997 through the Blackberry Service approved of Santacruz, Mumbai, so I don't know if he was outclassed by beta verion mentioned by you or not, but as you are advising me to recharge my camera, can I do the same thing & then check the photo and music icon will appear in the menu?

    Yes, this is why I recommended that you upgrade to the latest version.

    Your service center loaded a very old beta software on your phone.

  • How backup complete photos and catalog on external hard drive?

    I want to backup my entire LR library on an external drive for security. I want the backup to include photos as well as all the metadata of. I can't do it, and I can't find a similar question and answer on the forum. I am able to 'Export' pictures on my external hard drive, but the metadata file that gets exported is unreadable.

    Please advise me how to do this simple and necessary procedure. Thanks in advance.

    Two steps to be completed-

    1. When you close the Lightroom program you should let make a backup of the CATALOG . OFTEN!

    This is defined in the catalog preferences [Ctrl + Alt +] [Ctrl/Cmd + Alt + comma]

    The catalog stores everything you do in the Lightroom program! including metadata.

    AND save backups of the catalog to another physical disk (NOT in the same folder as the Lightroom program!)

    2. your original images must be 'Backed-up' or copied to a second location on a different physical drive your chosen method (and not by Lightroom)

    Mac users can use {Time Machine}, PC users can use {SyncBack, Free File Sync, etc.)

    * It is usually not necessary to 'Export' all images unless you have a specific purpose - for example to post on Facebook, Pinterest, web page, printer, etc..

    There is no object in the export of images from archive on your computer, if Lightroom has a catalogue of work!
