Copy of pictures/catalogue of desk for laptop computer

I'm finally to the point where my photos on the desktop and laptops are on the same drive letter and the same exact path.  I only work with one at a time.  The office when the home and laptop computer when he's away.  Instead of using the backup/restore, looks like I can just copy the catalog file and the folder of Photos on the other machine - say the laptop.  Then everything away I could score some photos or import a bit.  Back that I could copy the catalog and Photos on the desktop and it will sync.

Unless that metadata and other associated information is stored outside of the catalog folder, this scenario seems reliable.  The main obstacle is overcome by the pictures being in the same < drive >: \ < path >.  So, I have both with the reconnection.

Anyone who thinks that somehow, that it would not work?

Yes, it will not work if you use PSE9 or later, because the Organizer use the reader unique volume ID to identify the location of the pictures.  If your photos are stored on an external drive, then it might work if the drive is connected the same drive letter.

If your photos are on separate drives, you probably better using MS Sync Toy

to maintain a directory of photos synchronized between computers and saying to the organiser at re - import photos after synchronization.  Tags must be written in the image files themselves so that the tags to be updated in the catalog of the Organizer.

  • transfer desk for laptop product key

    Last year, I bought Windows Vista Home premium OEM software for my office...   How can I transfer the key now to my laptop... Thank you

    You can not.  Software Vista OEM installed are tied to the machine, it was originally installed on, and cannot be used on this one machine.  It cannot be transferred to another computer (even if the first is broken).  That's how OEM licenses work.  If you bought a copy retail for Vista then it can be transferred to another machine - but installed on a single computer at a time.

    See the following about replacement for a software that can help: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326246.

    Sorry if this isn't what you wanted to hear, but it's like that.

    I hope this helps.

  • Transfer desk for laptop windows updates

    I am planing to rebuild this computer and I would like to transfer all the updates of windows that I have accumulated over my laptop. The laptop has never been connected to the internet. Both are running Windows XP Office with all Windows updates. Maybe I need the laptop to access Internet when I make rebuilding if something does not work. I could just connect to the laptop and let it download the updates but I'm here in dial-up land and it would probably take a month or two.

    You cannot, if you downloaded updates of Adminastrative, which is the full update pkge, you could, but downloaded winupdates are not the complete installation pkge.

    MS usually done sp updates available on the disk on the agenda, but I don't know if they still do for winxp

    The operating system that you are running on your computer?

    You may have set the option "Erase after importing" when importing the photos. At the end of the import process, then pictures should appear in the Windows Photo Viewer.

    Open the Windows Photo Viewer and check if you can see these photos.

  • How do I download pictures from my cloud for my computer I

    Hi, I would like to get pictures that are on my phone that are on the I cloud on my computer but I can't seem to do. The photos seem just to stay in the cloud, so I can't delete which means I can't create more space on my phone. I would appreciate any help on how to address this. Thank you!

    On your computer, connect to https://www.icloud.com/ and go to the Photos app click on select Photos in the top bar and select the pictures you want to download, then click on the download icon in the bar at the top. Which will download a copy to your computer. Removing icloud is a separate step if you also want to remove them.
