Catalogs, Collections, that I came here?
1... new to Lightroom.
I have a photo library on my hard drive, I imported the files in lightroom, or I thought I did... The photos appear under my hard drive Mac taking place with in Lightroom.
Can I change the pictures from there. (selection of a picture of this hard collection and continue to develop?) Will be the changes that I made these individual photos, recorded in a copy of the photo from this library of hard drive?
I created also Collections by dragging photos from the library to the folders inside the collections fall down.
When I want to edit a photo, choose it starting from the hard disk pane Macintosh, or in the Collections pane... .and the changes to each photo is stored in the master file on my drive hard photo?
Thanks for your help for having started me with Lightroom.

First of all, Lightroom does NOT record changes to the images. Your master images imported into Lightroom are left intact. All settings are stored in a catalog. The catalog is a file database on your computer. It contains information about your images where they are, and all the settings that you have made to these images. However, it does not have the image files. They image files are located in folders on your computer, and you can designate where those files are located as you import your images.
A collection is something that you create of images together for one purpose or another. It could be an event, a trip, a family, a wedding or what ever. You decide what you want in a collection. You can make adjustments are either in the collection or folder, you work on the same image. A collection is something that only exists in the catalog.
If you want a copy of the image to give to someone who understands all the settings that you have made using Lightroom you would use the export function to export a copy of this image.
Since you are new to Lightroom, I suggest that you take the time to look at this series of introductory videos. They were designed for 5 of Lightroom, but everything it is question would apply to other versions as well.

I downloaded ps CC and CC bridge but camera raw has no load up automatically. I tried to download Camera Raw 6,7 Adobe, but it is said that this camera raw does not apply to me. Any thoughts?
HI JohnnyFinley
Photoshop and Bridge CC includes the latest camera raw Plugin 9.1.1.Camera gross 6.7 does not work with CC products.
You should be able to see the camera raw version 9.1.1 if you have downloaded the version of Photoshop CC 2015
Alternatively you can manually download Camera raw here install plug in Camera Raw

How to fix my Lightroom catalogs so that I can find all my photos?
Hello, before you start, yes I know I made some big mistakes over the years to implement lightroom catalogs and it became a disaster.
First of all, I have about catalogues en and seen the lack of pictures in most. Even though I know the photo is I can see them on a photo after an exhaustive search. I try and have lightroom locate in finder, but does not work in 99% of the time. Probably cause it has been moved or changed the name. Photo of thew can also be in several catalogs, don't ask me why and how, because somehow the name changed, I have a big mess.
The pictures are spread over three discs in my imac and two drives connected to my IMac, which, according to me, the easiest way is to take all my photos and load them on a Lightroom Catalog and load them among the readers, so that everything is new. But how to do this, I'm not sure. I think that I create a new catalog and that import each photo from the disk, or maybe that I can do it by folder or maybe there's a faster way? This will change the name of the pictures and do all the other obsolete catalogs.
Maybe there is an easier way, HELP! OTHER SOLUTIONS. I HAVE ABOUT 20 000 PICTURES
THANKS DAVE

Yes, it looks that you want to start, it's probably the best thing to do at this point... but... it is likely that you will lose changes and metadata that you have added to the photos. (The alternative is to solve problems, but it seems difficult and time-consuming account bound to the description above, but certainly possible).
It also seems that you want to change your workflow. I highly recommend a workflow where the photos are never moved after importation (EXCEPTION: If you move photos to a new computer or a new hard disk, you must move them). And you must do this "cold turkey", never, not even once, you will pass the photos (with the only exception I mentioned). I highly recommend a workflow where you use keywords and other metadata to allow you to organize and search; rather than to organize and search through folders.
To start again... you can move photos anywhere you want what they are using your operating system. (Remember, I said never move them after you import, so moving them before you import are correct). In Lightroom, select file-> new catalogue, give the catalog name in the dialog box that appears, and then import the photos using the Add option to import them from their existing location (or you can use the option COPY and Lightroom can put the photos in a beautiful series skillfully arranged in folders by date of capture). And NEVER move again (don't forget there is one exception), use the keywords and other metadata to organize and find.
Thereafter, use a catalog only. This will make your life much easier. Do not even consider the use of multiple catalogs (unless you have completely separate and unrelated topic, such as personal and professional photos).

I am a user of Photoshop CS5. I have a whole new camera Panasonic DMC-ZS50. Help Photoshop says that this camera RAW images are taken in charge by Photoshop. But I can't open these RAW images in CS5. What should I do?
This device requires Camera Raw 8.8/9.0, which only CS6 or PS CC can handle. With CS5, you need to use the free DNG Converter.

I use Lightroom 5, and before my sliders temperature would be as follows:
-100-100 blue yellow
-100-100 Green magentaFor some reason, now the blue to the yellow scale is from 2000 to 50000. Magenta to green is always the same.
Can someone help me solve this problem? I literally have no idea what to do!
Now you shooting RAW files.
For JPG and TIFF, the two scales are-100 to 100.
For RAW files, the Temp is 2000 to 50000 and the hue is-150 to + 150.

1. to add all these photos in the quick Collection:
