  The same way that you moved the library before, except with the disc source and destination reversed. The Photos application must always be on the startup disk.

• How to move pictures and the catalogue of a new external drive on a Mac?

  I found this question several times and do not understand the answers.  I have all my photos and the catalog LR on an external HD.  I need to move to an external drive more.  I tried with the Finder, but when I try to open the catalog on the new disk the pictures do not show in LR even if they are on the disc.  In a few simple steps how to do this correctly?

  Assuming that the new disk is writable,

  Open the catalog.

  Go to the folders Panel.

  Do a "find missing" on the top-level folders so that LR will know where the files have been moved to.

• How formatting a Mac OS external drive in windows 7

  Hi guys

  Got an external drive that is mac OS. Disk management sees in car with no details. All options, including the "Format", is grayed out except to 'Delete Volume '. Question: How can I format this drive in windows 7 Home premium. No access to a mac, PC, to get in shape first.

  If the TrekDozer solution does not work, you can try the diskpart.exe command-line utility.

  • In a command line window, type diskpart
  • List type
  • Find the desired disc, and then type select disk 0 (or whatever number it is, but make sure that you get it right!)
  • Format type

  At this point, you can create a partition with diskpart, or use the disk management GUI.
  
  

• Changes to the Raw files disappear when importing Images from external drive

  I use three external drives to copy my files from a work of transformation. Then I delete the original work on my hard drive portable. When I need to access these files again, I usually then re - import files in lightroom and remove the external hard drive. I used this system for years without problem. Recently, I found that when I go to import files from the external hard drive, my changes are gone. .Xmp files are there and I checked to make sure that the box is checked to write the changes to the .xmp file. I narrowed down it to two possible problems. It can be a problem with the disk hard as it seems to have started when I bought two new drives (see below). I also noticed that it seems to happen to Canon. Raw CR2 files and not Nikon. Raw NEF files. If someone has had this problem or have any suggestions?

• How can I save a particular set of photos on an external drive. NEF files as well as everything I've done for them in Lightroom?

  Apologies in advance if this is a dead-easy question or one that has been answered countless times in the past.

  When I get back from a trip, I load all the photos of the trip in Lightroom, create a collection out of them, the best of the Pavilion, and treat them in the module 'development '. If I want to save these photos up to an external drive (most likely a USB key), I know that I can simply drag the. Files NAVE from the Finder to the drive icon, but who copies only the files raw, not the work I did on them in Lightroom. Is it a simple and direct way to choose a particular collection of photos into Lightroom and export it to an external drive, including the raw files and any relevant changes for them ('sidecar files"?)? Or do I need to do this in several steps, as by exporting this collection as a catalog separately by copying the raw files?

  I realize that I could do a back-up Time Capsule of the whole machine - and I do on a regular basis, but I want to have quick access to a back-up of only pictures of a particular trip.

  My installation includes Nikon cameras (so the ".") "NAVE" reference above), a fairly new iMac and Lightroom 5.7.

  In its default configuration, Lightroom saves only the changes in the catalog. If you selected the option to save the changes to XMP so there will be files XMP sidecar to accompany each raw file that you worked on in Lightroom. If you have not activated this option, you can select all of the images and do a 'Save to File metadata"in the menu picture. Just be aware that these changes will be visible in other Adobe software. There isn't any method of writing changes directly in a raw file. But if you back up your files on a flashdrive and then make sure that you back up your catalog on a regular basis, you should be relatively safe.

• Import of files from an external drive their copy on my internal drive?

  Hello

  I am a PSE newbie and this is my first post here.  I have a question about importing files.  I store all of my photos on an external drive.  Importation of files copy in the Adobe folder?  If so, I can now work on an image even if the external drive is disconnected?

  Will I receive an email notification when someone answers my question?

  Thank you.

  If Windows sees your external drive as "removable", when you call the PES file > get Photos and videos > files and folders, default PSE copy photos in the Pictures\Adobe folder (unless you disable the option to copy the photos).

  Usually, only flash drives (thumb readers ' "), CD/DVD, cameras and flash cards are processed by Windows as"removable ".  But sometimes Windows confused and treats as external hard drives removable.  You can check how Windows is treat your disk by Windows Explorer open, accessing the computer and looking at the Type column for the reader.

• clips from library for the FCPX external drive disappear

  First time user FCPX.

  I run an end iMac from 2012 and has been using iMovie 10.1.2 until yesterday.  Just before you buy FCPX, I ran out of hard drive space and got a disk external 4 TB and transferred my iMovie library here.  I've renamed the library external iMovie "iMovie" and deleted the one on my Mac, releasing 500 GB of space.  Tested with iMovie using the external drive, no problem, everything works ok.

  Then, I bought yesterday FCPX.  To have access to all my old clips in imovie, I used iMovie and open "library external iMovie" and used the 'send to Final Cut Pro library' command in the file menu of iMovie.  Everything seemed fine, as I was able to open the library in FCPX and all my clips and events were there.

  I thought everything was great, then I went to add some clips to FCPX of my video camera.  I created a second library FCPX and put the clips.  They have downloaded completely, but after downloading said it was over, my machine froze and I had to do a hard reboot by turning off.  This isn't all that unusual, sometimes my Mac crashes when I leave it alone for several hours.

  After that I turned on and opened FCPX, I see in the left pane, two libraries, and events, but some clips appear on my screen.  I opened and closed the library hoping to get the clips to the rear, without success.

  Any idea what went wrong or how to fix it?  I don't know whether to attribute the problem to computer freezing, or rather the use for the first time an external drive to host my files.

  If I can't understand what went wrong, and then I simply repeat the process I went through the first time and see if I get the same results, but I'd rather figure out what I did wrong and try to fix it, so I have a higher level of comfort, go ahead.   I hope that this will not be an experience repeat everything simply because I'm hosting my video files on an external drive.

  Thank you!

  The problem is caused by the shutdown. You could see if there is a backup in the case of movies, but there are maybe not if you have imported only from the media.

  You cannot use this computer with FCP if hard it crashes. You have to get it repaired. No computer should crash like that unless you pull the plug. If you have problems to get a UPS to give you time to stop.

• Creating a new iTunes merged on external drive library

  I'm currently using 10.4.11 and iTunes 9.2.1 - I got lots and lots of problems with iTunes and libraries corrupt and have got to the point where I did all my playlists and so on are lost.

  I'm done with all my music files shared between two folders - there are duplicates between these records, but as far as I know, nothing is actually missing. As I don't have enough space on the hard drive of the current computer to consolidate those two files, I have them have copied onto an external hard drive - now I want to consolidate the library on the external hard drive in order to pass all the music to a new version of iTunes on my new iMac.

  Can someone tell me how can I do? I guess I need to move the iTunes application itself on the external drive to consolidate the two music files here - it is a simple process, and it will work?

  First of all, you must certainly not move the application iTunes itself.  Secondly, as you said you copied your separate music files on the external hard drive you should still have them in their location of origin - otherwise, you should copy them back again before proceeding and make sure you can always play your music in iTunes.  The function of the iTunes "Consolidate library" is to copy the media files from their current locations to another of your choice, and update the iTunes database so that all references to the location of your media files are correctly updated.

  The correct procedure to follow is:

  1. External hard disk, create a folder called "iTunes", then in this folder, create one called "iTunes Media.
  2. In iTunes, select iTunes > Preferences > advanced, and then change the setting for the iTunes Media folder iTunes/iTunes Media on your external drive
  3. Now select file > library > organize a library..., check the files to consolidate and, if not grayed, the reorganize files.. box
  4. Click OK - iTunes won't copy each multimedia file that is located in a valid entry in your database for iTunes to the hierarchy of standard folder in iTunes/iTunes Media external hard disk
  5. Once this process is complete, check that your music plays again - when you have verified the results, you can then delete the original files that iTunes has just copied your media since.

  This will produce a working library with all media on the external hard drive, as you have described.  However, at this point, you have a shared library with the database of iTunes and other data to support on a single disc and your media on another.  Manipulation of backups, migrating to a new computer, replication to other computers, etc., works best if you have the complete library on the external hard drive - see tips to the user of turingtest2 on do a split cell library for more information.

  Hi Rae3000,

  Vista cannot update files automatically from music on external drive folder or vice versa.

  When you play a file on your computer or on the Internet, the Player automatically adds the file to your library if it isn't already in your library. The reader does not automatically add a file that you play from removable storage media, a device removable storage, or on a shared network folder

• New Mac, same disk external DRIVE for the library; does not see the files

  I reconnected my iTunes library from a disk external DRIVE to my new computer, but iTunes does not recognize my files of the ALAC instead, he goes to the cloud and plays music from Apple things. How can I listen to my files? All the files are there, the library is intact; I changed the path in iTunes. Without result. He always plays with the cloud.

  You do not change the path in iTunes.  Who does as it says which is tell iTunes where media files [new] store. You change the path you launch iTunes by holding down the option/alt key, while the application starts and then choose when prompted the iTunes Library.itl file in the iTunes folder you included if all goes well on the hard disk external.  If everything you have on the outside are media files, then you better head for your old computer fast and get the rest of the library there.  It's the rest of these files in the iTunes folder that make up the other half of the 'library' iTunes needs.
