BACKUP QUESTION: why is it that when I backup the Lightroom Catalog (Edit |) Settings of catalog...) only the *.lrcat file included in the ZIP file... While the *., lrdata file, the preview files, ARE NOT INCLUDED?  When I restore the *.lrcat file from a backup, WHERE ARE THE PREVIEW FILES that should be included in the ZIP to the top.  If *.lrdata (Preview file) are so important, why are not included in the zip?  [email protected]

OK, so that's my scenario:

  • QUESTION: WHEN I USE THE [Sub-master] .lrcat, on the new computer, don't need to inculde also files .lrdata [Sub-master] on this external drive?
  • If .lrdata [Sub-master] is regenerated automatically, where he gets all the work (from the preview files) that I did, when I was working, using the .lrdata [Sub-master] when he was on the local disk.

Thanks again for staying with me on this.  I don't know that your answer will solve my confusion. -Craig

Questions 1)

Not because the LRDATA file is fair previews, what LR displays on your screen for a faster loading of the image and will be recreated. The previews only stored in the folder LRDATA is the basic overview created at time of importation for the display of thumbnails and previews of 1:1 for images that you have actually looked in the Loupe View or I guess that appears in the develop module.

He get all the data to create the image themselves file extracts.

If you have several files on your system that have pictures in them and you select one of them that you have not looked at in a while, you will notice LR creation of previews for these images, there will be 3 white dots in the upper right corner of the thumbnail. It's LR creation of previews for the thumbnail view. If you scroll quickly in the grid view, you'll notice a few thumbnails of images are gray, until you stop scrolling, then the upper left tile will come in clear view and the white dots will appear on the other images. It's LR creating previews for those of other images. Once LR created the preview of thumbnails that are on your screen, white spot will disappear. If you scroll down again, you will see more white dots

If you switch to another folder that LR begins again create preview images in this folder. The total number of previews created and stored based on caching of the preview you have in the catalog settings dialog in the management of the files tab.

If not, you need not the LR Previews.lrdata folder. Whenever LR is not very good this folder with a catalog he recreates it to store previews in.

  • Muse and preview mode are not the same

    Hello

    I have a problem with Adobe Muse. The site I am building isn't properly in preview. Below you can see a screenshot of the website in design mode.

    Now, with the option "show an overview of the site in the browser" Web site looks like this:

    As you can see, the menu is much lower than in the Muse. But when I use the ' Preview in the browser page ' option, the preview is correct:

    I tried a lot of things, but I can't do things. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    EDIT: Also, other elements such as text and rectangles are not previewed in the place where they should be. Very frustrating. Someone at - it Adobe, that can help?

    Thank you

    Try a startup repair if you have the Vista DVD.

    If no DVD of Vista, try this:

    Download the ISO on the provided link and do a repair of the disc.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    You can make a tool to restart system, System Restore, etc. with it.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

  • Why my windows media player stops the audio output from my headset in the middle of a song?

    I listen to music through a Bluetooth wireless headset. However, in the middle of songs the audio stops. Windows media player is still playing and audio output continues for 10 to 30 seconds later.

    also, it stops at the end of the songs and takes a few seconds with the new song to restart again.

    Hello

    Method 1.
    Try using a different bluetooth or use bluetooth even on another computer and check.

    Method 2.
    Play the sog directly on your computer and check the output.

    Method 3.
    If the same bluetooth works fine on another computer try to update the drivers bluetooth on your computer and check.

    I hope this helps.

  • When you try to install Internet Explorer 9 in Vista, got code 80070017 error, SFC/Scannow shows the corrupted files that are not resolved

    I had a lot of trouble with my vista system (the most recent is an error code 80070017 when you try to install the update IE-9).  I ran sfc.exe/scannow and have a CBS file with several currupt files that are not fixed.  I'm over my head from the experience now.  Can someone help me?  Thank you!

    Original title: Vista files corrupt

    Try to run in safe mode.

    If there are files corrupted again after that, you can mount the image file .iso for the same version of Windows, you probably Vista SP2 - OR - put the disc in the drive.

    (Make sure same version x 86 or x 64 also!)

    Then use 7zip to look in the file \Sources\install.wim for files without a problem. Copy and paste from here directly on those on your HARD drive.

    The Panel in Bridge CS5 preview images are not strong (almost blurry). Also when I select an inch and view it using the method of the space bar (of the bridge) the picture not sharp. Anyone has any idea why? They look fine in Bridge CS4. I searched for a setting, preferably without result. It doesn't matter if it's RAW or JPG (same results).

    Dear users,

    Just upgraded my Tecra M5-400 in Visa Ulimate. The problem now is that the icons, text, etc. are not displayed correctly (big, dull). Tried drivers from Toshiba, but none of them is specific for my model, and some of them do not install.

    Any ideas what I should do or what driver I need to download?

  • If time machine is incremental how it removes previous versions when the disk is full, without breaking the chain, so do not be able to restore all changes since the first full file

    If time machine is incremental how it removes previous versions when the disk is full, without breaking the chain, so do not be able to restore the file with any changes made since the full backup first file...

    If the TM drive storage is full TM automatically deletes the version the oldest files for the new incremental backups can be made. Thus, in this case you cannot restore the versions that TM deleted because it takes more storage.

    Hey there Meg.

    Welcome to Apple Support communities.

    If I understand correctly, photos are missing in your iPhone after restoring a backup to iCloud. The article below provides a lot of information and troubleshooting tips that should help you to solve the problem of missing photos.

    Help find missing information in iCloud after restoring to an iOS - Apple Support device

    Your photos

    In iOS 8.1 or later with iCloud than on photo library, your photos and videos are stored in iCloud. They are not included in your backup to iCloud. After you restore your device, connect to the Wi - Fi and turn on iCloud photo library by going to settings > iCloud > Photos. Your photos and videos starts to download.

    If you use iOS 8.1 or later and have not turned on iCloud photo library, or if you use the iOS 7, iCloud backup includes photos and videos in your film or photo library. They will download on your iOS device when restoring.

    • Photos in my photo stream is already stored in iCloud, so that they are not part of your backup. iCloud stores the photos that you have uploaded to my stream of photos for 30 days. To keep these pictures on your device and to be part of your backups, save these photos in your library, film or another album.
    • To view an album My Photo Stream, make sure that my photo stream is enabled in the settings (if use you iCloud photo library, the photo stream my folder is removed).
    • To retrieve the photos synchronized to the origin of your device from your computer, synchronize your device via iTunes on a computer.
    • To restore an iPhone or an iPod touch photo library (or film), iCloud backup must be from an iPhone or iPod touch. To restore photos photo library (or film) to an iPad, iCloud backup must be from an iPad.

    Take care.

  • I receive a "Low disk space" message and to free up space (d) car which seems full of backup files dating from when I got the laptop in 2008.

    I receive a "Low disk space" message and to free up space (d) car which seems full of backup files dating from when I got the laptop. Now I also have the message 'the last backup impossible' because I don't have enough space on this drive.  He had originally 110 GB Local disk (d :)) and it fell to 7.44 MB of free space.) Can I remove the back of the 'safeguards' located in the 3 files and start on the 17/04/2008 right up to 2011-01.05 and just keep the last backup or removing the back will cause problems? Can someone help thank you.

    Hi KarenRoss56,

    You can try to remove the old files of backup from 2008 to 2010 and check.

    Note: When you delete these files and later if you perform a restore, you will not be able to get previous data. If you need one of these files, you can transfer the files to an external drive before you delete the system files.

    You can also use Disk Cleanup to reduce the number of unnecessary files on your hard disk to free up disk space and help your computer run more quickly.
