Hard drive of the system had to be replaced, but the photos are saved anywhere else

I reinstalled LR, but how do I get my pictures back inside?

Installation of Lr has created a new empty catalog so replace it by your last backup to work.

The default location is normally pictures or my pictures, unless you have selected a different location.

LR to stop smoking and find catalog file and the file with the .lrcat ending for example MyCatalog.lrcat

Instead of simply delete rename as MyCatalog_OLD.lrcat

Now copy or drag your backup folder .lrcat file in your catalog folder, and relaunch LR or simply double-click the file restored .lrcat to launch.

You need to get the actual image files in the same file & folder paths, but it is easy to re - connect entire folders of photos missing if necessary.

See the document useful (Fig. 8) and the use of the location of the update folder.

Once everything works OK, you can delete MyCatalog_OLD

  • Photo date change during transfer to external hard drive from the "Photos" application

    Hello

    When I try to transfer the images to my request for 'Photo' on my Macbook (OS X Yosemite) to a hard drive external, the dates and times of the images change.

    I would like to transfer only some of my images on the hard drive, so I can't make time machine.

    Is it possible to keep the dates and hours of original photos when copying them?

    Thank you very much for your help!

    Select the photos and export (menu, file == > export)-this will include the Photo with date and time metadata in EXIF/IPTC fields for use by any porgram Photo (you can check this by using Preview)-as you create new files file metadata will obviously be new but we can't change the photo metadata

  • Too big for the hard drive from the photo library

    My iMac has two internal drives - a hard drive of 250 in the solid state and a disk of 1 TB of data.  I am trying to import about 80 GB of photos. To be able to access on my other devices Apple iCloud, I know, they must be on the HARD DISK, but I don't have enough room due to the large number of iTunes files already there. Is there a solution to this? I wish I could share all my photos between the office, the iPhone and the iPad. Thank you.

    Launch of iPhoto, Aperture, or Photos with down option, create a library on the external hard drive, and if you use pictures, set it as the system library. The volume used to store the must be in Mac OS Extended format.

  • LR catalog on a dedicated USB key and on separate HARD drives of the photo

    I have Photoshop for PS6 until CS5 but am new to Lightroom 5.3 which I bought a license because of my camera Fuji X-Pro1 does not not in Camera Raw, level CS5.

    I watched movies tutorial (very good) Julieanne and I must say that my initial dislike of the catalog system has changed. In fact: I love and find a huge advantage, not in the last place because it will force finally organize me my photos. So I want to start a really good catalog from the start method.

    As you can install it with a single license Lightroom on a primary computer and a portable computer (same owner and used for travel) I've been musing on the following points:

    If I install a vacuum om a 16 GB USB key dedicated to the catalog and begin to organize my photos on an external HARD drive (I have a SSD in my self-assembled pc) from within lightroom and add news via a smaller HARD drive external travel
    I guess it could be the easier implementation for laptop and home computer. The Lightroom Catalog stick and the travel RFP will work very well with the laptop, and within LR, back home, I could easily move my new photos from the hard drive trip to grand.

    In the eye of expert-users, would be the disadvantages?
    I hope I have made myself clear...

    Erik, it's where you think wrong. Just, you can import your files/folders on site and arrange them how you want. What's different, is that now do you this in and with Lightroom, organization rather than the operating system. You can adapt and or change the structure/organization at any time for each new type you can come up with.

    ErikHeyninck wrote:

    It is also a valid point and something I'm musing all since my last entry. The problem with the LR is that with any other application, you can install it and start working, but LR wants that first know you exactly how you organize your files. You can just start using it. In fact, you * can * but then you miss the power of organizing capacity.

  • HP personal media drive hp0000: remove the hard drive from the external area.

    My external hard drive does not work and I would like to remove the drive from the external hard drive case.  How to open the short cut through the plastic box?  I have other cases of emjpty for the hard drive.

    Access to the internal hard drive: methods and variants

    (1) open the support HP Pocket Drive is as simple as peel back label hardened plastic on the end of usb connection and to extract both little phillip screws hidden. Once the removed screws the drive carrier will slide on the front of the case and the hard drive can be easily replaced.

    (2) the same video

    (3) it is very easy to detach. With a small flat screwdriver take the label on the back cover. This will reveal the 2 small Phillips head screw. Remove them and gently pull the back cover. Then gently push all inside the well hard drive that forward into the aluminum housing. Careful not to push the reader through the case and on the floor.

  • In Windows 7 when you try to copy files to an external hard drive, getting the error "are you sure you want to copy this file without its properties?

    I know there have been a few posts on this in the past, but I have a slightly different query.

    To copy files from my drive NTFS of Windows 7 64 bit for my Western Digital My Book World Edition II 2 GB player manually, not with the WD software provided), for some files, the following message appears.
    "Are you sure you want to copy this file without its properties?  The X file has properties that cannot be copied to the new location. »
    After investigation, it appears that Western Digital My Book World Edition II is not NTFS format and is, in fact, driven Linux.
    Their technical support has confirmed that, despite the message, it is safe to copy files and rely on this backup (I want to backup my drive HARD whole so I can do a clean install - so it's really important!).
    Is anyone able to advise exactly what means the message in terms of properties lost?

    If you right-click on one of the files in Windows Explorer, then select Properties, you will see the Details tab of the properties he wouldn't if the files have been copied to a drive not NTFS. They are written in an Alternate Data Stream (ADS), and the FAT format readers include ADS.

    It depends on the file type of the importance of these properties. If you have spent a lot of time, adding titles and comments and authors and authors e-mail addresses to docprops your Word documents, for example, that the work would be lost.

    If you can live with the loss of these properties, go ahead - standard properties will be re-writings in the file when you restore from backup. It's of course time and resources.

    To avoid this problem, format your external drive to use the NTFS system.

  • Replacing an old hard drive causes the system had become unbootable

    OK, here's the scenario.

    Background:
    My old computer with Windows XP has been installed on a hard disk of 40 GB. Later through subsequent updates, I bought the upgrade Windows Vista Professional (retail) and proceeded to install Vista on a brand new 250 GB hard drive. Initially, he had some problems I did a clean install with upgrade to Vista, but then with the help of Mircrosoft support (and several hours of reformats and corrupt the old installation of XP) managed to get Vista installed hard disk new and active. I kept the old drive hard in the computer for about a year, but then noticed that he was starting to get out. I moved all the old information off the drive and recently bought a 1 TB drive to replace. I deleted everything that above with the exception of a few remaining files that won't let me not delete - documents and settings and startup records, respectively.

    Problem:
    When I take the old 40 GB hard drive to reside on Windows XP, my computer when startup is unable to find a drive it can boot from. Under disk management, it is labeled as system - even if the windows directory is on a completely separate drive. My intention was to replace the old hard drive, but I can't get my computer to recognize that it is not on the system drive somehow.

    Question:
    Is it possible to change what hard drive is recognized as a system disk or make sure I can get out the old hard drive and still keep my bootable system?

    Hello Lightningfst,

    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft answers Forum.  First off I would say that, before trying any of the suggestions I'm about to do that you completely back up the contents of the drive with Vista Business as a precaution.  The first suggestion I have is to copy the MBR of the disk of 40G to 250G drive.  It could be as simple as that.  However, when Windows sees a drive and initializes it, Windows writes a serial number of 4 bytes in the MBR (sector 0) of the disc. No matter what partition you create on this disc is then associated with the serial number and the drive letter that the partition is given.

    When you then progress to clone a boot partition on the new disk with a cloning program that does not copy the MBR, the serial number of the old drive is not copied to the new disk, so the new disk retains its serial number Windows has seen before.

    When Windows starts on the new disc, he sees the serial number of the new drive and guess the partition that is on that now belongs to the previously selected drive letter which is almost always not C:. Since installing Windows starts on C:, there is now no C: drive when Windows starts. Trying to connect allows Windows attempts to load the user from C:\Documents and Settings\registry, and the C: drive is not there, so Windows simply to abandon the attempt to logon and closes a session back.

    If this happens to you after copy the MBR of the disk of 40G to 150G Unit let us know and we can help you solve the problems that.  I hope this information is useful.

    Thank you

    Jack

  • How do I know which hard drive contains the operating system in the Hp Pavilion dv7-4069wm? The upgrade.

    I think the upgrade of one of my hard drives (ea 320) in my HP Pavilion laptop dv7-4069wm for more storage.  I like to keep the drive that contains the operating system to avoid the hassle to make a copy, but I'm not sure which one that is. I have not replaced a hard drive before, and still less a double disc. Recently, I added more RAM and noticed that both hard drives looked the same. Can someone tell me how to know the difference?

    Please be specific on what you mean by "far from many errors on the hard drive."  What kind of mistakes? Do you mean the drive read errors? Please quote the error message you get exact, verbatim.

    How many mistakes is "too much"? How many times they do they happen? They occur only when doing certain things or anything?

    If you really get a lot of the drive read errors, the drive is defective and must be replaced.

    But if you're talking about freezing, slow, etc. This is another question entirely, and I wouldn't call it 'errors on the hard drive. The little info you provided the mind, it is difficult to know what this problem is, but one of the things these days plussusceptibles is malware infection. What antivirus do you run (they are far from being just as good, and some of the most popular are among the worst). Do you also run an anti-spyware program? If not, it's * very * likelythat you are infected. I recommend that you download and run the free MalwareBytes AntiMalware to http://www. Malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
