Current Lightroom catalog display name

Is it possible to get Lightroom to display the name of the current catalog, perhaps the identity plate?

John

The name of the catalog file is displayed in the title bar.

If you position the pointer of the mouse on the title bar, it will show you the full path in a pop-up window.

  • How to import a file exported as a catalog in the current Lightroom Catalog.

    I exported a record I was working on LR to a catalog so that I could work on it on a trip.  I would like to "sync" it upward with the original file to LR without losing the changes made during a trip.  I could just go on the catalog that I created for the trip, but would like to hang out in the original catalogue. Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    -Kevin

    Hey Kevin,

    You can go to the file menu in the original main catalogue and choose the import option in a different catalog for this trip catalog images in this one.

  • Help!  Adding extra images in my lightroom catalog

    I'm having a brain PET!  I don't remember how to add additional files to my current lightroom catalog.  I was imaging and realized there were about 90 who were not currently in the Group of files, I was working on that.  How can I add them without losing the editing I've done on the other images?

    TIA

    Two ways-

    1. (and best) IMPORT.  Click on the import button, set the 'Source' folder of additional photos, set the method to 'Add', set "do not import duplicates" option. Click [Import] only the pictures that are not already in the catalog will be imported.

    2. with the folders Panel visible, right-click on the folder with additional photos wanted, select "synchronize the folder. This will open a dialog box that will do an import of additional files. Attention here!-this will also REMOVE the files that you have marked as "rejected".

    And why these files (90 odd) has been in the front catalog? Ideally you should index every photo in the Lightroom Catalog (not be selective!).

  • Computer failure, hard drive readable: can not find the 5 Lightroom Catalog.

    Computer failure, hard drive readable: can not find the 5 Lightroom Catalog. Help appreciated.

    I used 5.3 LR on Win7, never pay attention in the name of the catalog used. My photo files were on the same physical hard disk D: partition.

    Now that I have a new computer Intel NUC, with Win7 installed on drive C: (SSD M.2), I plugged my old drive hard drive E: (old C :) and drive F (old d :))

    I have re-installed LR 5.3 and also upgraded to LR 6, , but the problem is that I can't find the catalog I was using with LR 5.3

    I searched for *.lrcat and see all previous catalogues lightroom starting with LR 2, 3, 4, 5, getting bigger and bigger, but not catalog 5 including the current date.

    The catalog would have another name or extension?

    I have the old C: drive. Is there a config file that would confirm where the catalogue is supposed to be?

    Help!

    HM, it is clear that it is not found on your old C: (so E :). )

    And there is no config file to tell where to find the catalog to Lightroom. It's just that the catalog is in the place you choose (most of the people chose to have the catalog to the location by default...).

  • 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

    I have

    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).

  • Lightroom Catalog

    Lightroom crashes as soon as I tried to save a file. I ended up having to shut down the computer, but when I rebooted and tried to open Lightroom, a window with the message "the name of catalog Lightroom"Lightroom Catalog"cannot open another application already has its opening". I have the ability to change to a different catalogue that allows me to open Lightroom, but I do not have access to my files! No other applications are open on the computer. Any suggestions?

    Open the folder is your catalog. Next to the catalog file is a file with a .lock. This Trash and Lightroom should run again with your catalog.

    Go in the same folder as your Lightroom catalog file.

    In this folder is a file whose name ends in. LOCK (probably all lowercase). Delete this one. LOCK file. Do not remove anything else.

  • get the property of task flow display name of java

    Version 12.1.3 jdeveloper

    This method worked in 12.1.2 version

    but now, the getViewPort() method is not available

    Any other solution pls? ()

    Thank you

    Have you tried: taskFlowBinding.getTaskFlowId ()?

    Note that DCTaskFlowBinding is an inner class so you should probably not use it.

    If there is no better way, you can try using TaskFlow initializer is to remind current taskFlowId (you can retrieve the current workflow task id with: ControllerContext.getInstance () .getCurrentViewPort () .getTaskFlowContext () .getTaskFlowId ())

    and TaskFlow finalizer to clean the memory value.

  • Lighroom opens with a window telling me that the "Lightroom Catalog" is already open is not possible since I just restarted my computer?

    Lightroom opens suddenly with a message "you already have open Lightroom Catalog. Close the other version of Lightroom? Never happened before, and master windows task says I have no other lighroom open?

    The message says that you have an open CATALOG.

    What this means, is that the last time you used Lightroom you don't close properly Lightroom and he left the CATALOGUE in a State "locked."  Maybe the computer crashed, or you just turned off?

    The fix-

    First - find out where your catalog is stored.

    Open the Explorer/finder on your site CATALOG and delete the file that has a name that ends in "... lrcat.lock."

    Do not delete anything! Do NOT delete the file ending by "... lrcat ' (i.e. your catalogue with all your work!)

    Then restart lightroom.

    The .lock file is a temporary file that is always created when you open a catalog with Lightroom, to prevent several users the same catalog to open at the same time.

    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.

  • Lightroom catalog cannot be opened. WHY?

    My computer crashed. Lightroom is now ask me to re - enter the serial number of my software (I bought it before the set monthly subscription thing) and then telling me "cannot open the Lightroom catalog called"Lightroom Catalog"because is another application already open." I gives me the ability to "choose a different catalog", "continue" or "quit". There is no other catalog, I only have one created. I click on 'continue' and nothing DON'T get PAST. The message window will Flash, and here I am watching the same error message that gives me the same options to "choose another catalogue", "continue" or "quit".

    WHY CAN I NOT ACCESS MY PROGRAM OF LIGHTROOM? HOW CAN I FIX?

    It should be noted I tried clicking on the three options. "Choose a different catalog" simply evokes a directory showing what I already knew; that I don't have that one catalog. 'exit', of course, leaves through the window. I also shot to the top of my task manager to verify that no other programs/applications were running, so I don't know yet, I received this message from another application have my Lightroom Catalog open in the first place.

    Help, please

    It worked!
    Simply by removing the file ".lock" with the same name 'error' catalogue spoke, I again was able to access Lightroom.

    Side note: My mistake of 'catalogue' began to appear after my computer crashed as well.

    Thanks for the advice everyone! penderra Hal P Anderson farriswlphotos

  • Please help, Lightroom Catalog recovery methods.

    I currently use:

    -Macbook Pro

    -Lightroom 5

    A week ago my Mac operating system crashed. I was able to recover data from my hard drive, including saved the 5 Lightroom catalog files. However, when I try to "import an another catalog" on the file menu of Lightroom, I get an error that says: "Lightroom cannot import of this catalogue the catalogue does not seem to be a valid Lightroom Catalog." The catalog has 346 MB of data, so I know there is data on the .lrcat file, but Lightroom does not allow me to open it. This is also the case when I try to import files from a previous backup .lrcat file that has only 96 MB. I set the admin, user, staff and all the privileges in reading & Wright, but I still cannot access any data in Lightroom. The .lrcat file is the only file in the backup folder. This is the case for each previous backup file and the Lightroom folder in the backup drive (I put these files for read & Wright so privileges).

    Can someone please help me or give advice as to where I can find a service that will help me to get these settings to photo editing? I lost more than 7000 + pictures I need for work (I am a professional photographer).

    Apart from allowing authorizations and re - install an older version of Lightroom, I don't know what else to try.

    If anyone has had this problem before / is there a Lightroom Catalog recovery service who can help me?

    Thank you

    Lightroom Cannot Import.jpg

    Yes, the same thought as before.

    I don't think there is a way to make this catalog work.

    Furthermore, copies made after a crash are not what I call backups. You need to make regular and automated backups of your files and catalog using the built-in functionality of Lightroom, you also want to check the box that says "Test integrity before Backing Up.

  • 5 Lightroom stopped display all the pictures in my files.

    5 Lightroom stopped display all the pictures in my files.  I have an exclamation mark next to each folder on my external hard drive (which is cool).

    I tried re-import all my photos, but it does not work. There is nothing to reimport.

    All my files are stuck in the single photo view.  I can't change the view no matter if I try to see my pictures of my internal or external HDD.

    Lightroom is also stuck in library mode.  I can't access the mode develop, map or a slide show.

    I tried to optimize my catalog, but that did not help.  I have the latest version of Lightroom 5.7.1.

    What should I do?

    Please follow the steps to update the location of the folder.

    > Lightroom open

    > Right click on the folder in the library module.

    > Click on the location of the folder to update

    > Browse and select the right folder

    You should be able to see the images correctly and will be able to change them in the develop module.

    I hope this helps.
