Help! Merge changes in a single catalog LR in a former a folder of images for...

Hey friends! We you handle a difficult series of photos and moved everything to an external hard drive. Without thinking, I opened and made changes to a picture folder on our main computer and then later on changes in another folder of images in the catalog of external hard drive file.

I would like to merge everything into one place without losing any changes for our two separate records of more recent images. Is there an easy way to do this?

Thank you!

On the external drive, open the LR catalog, select the folder of interest, right-click on the file and choose export this folder as a catalogue...

On the internal disk, open the Lightroom Catalog, select file-> import from another catalog and select the catalog that you created from the external drive.

  • How can I merge two catalogues, preserving the most recent changed files in each catalog?

    I have a catalog covering the modified and modified files covering a period of time until the end of 2013.  I have an another catalog covering the same period and the most recent files at the present time.  The first changed files that have been made in a way not forward (the files were, but not mods) when I switched to a new machine and subsequently more photos for 2014 adds to the existing batch.  I had never used XMPs to store the mods - my mistake, now corrected for the future.  Is it possible to merge a catalog in another or both in a new catalog and keep the latest mods for all files?  If not, can I export the changed files in a catalog, and then import them in the most recent two catalogues with all the included files?

    I think that I found the definitive answer, in The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom book, the chapter on the merger of two catalogs into one. The trick is to create a new master catalog that starts in white, shoot in the first catalog (does not move the files), then it repeats with the second catalogue, which will search for and avoid the dupes, yet once again move the files.  The end result is a catalog of master handset, with files and all changes for all files in the two catalogues.  It worked for me.  Thank you, you were thinking in the right direction.

  • Acrobat 9 Pro: "merge files into a single PDF" creates blank pages

    I have a similar problem in a previous post (which received no response).

    I am able to pdf documents fine Word, but when I try to combine > merge files into a single pdf, pdf pages that result are all empty. I do not receive any error messages or have problems to save the file.

    I use Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro (9.5.1) on Windows 7.

    Merging pdf files did not work at all since I installed the program.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    I would like to try a repair before a reinstall. If you perform a reinstall, be sure to disable everything first.

    How are you trying to merge. This may be a feature added by AA X and I do not have, but the details are always useful. What happens if you simply open one and then use the Document > insert Pages (or as much as Adobe may have set this time) and add a document at the end of the first?

  • Could you help me with the use of catalogs in Lightroom 3.0

    Could you help me with:
    1 if we have one or more catalogs for my rather huge collection of photographs. I can't see the advantage of having more than one catalog.
    2 I understand that 'look', 'smart collection' etc. Search all photos in the catalog, I'm trying. But not in any other catalogue I may have.
    3 I understand that several catalogs can contain ordinary pictures.
    4 how to 'find' function to appear several criteria (as in the definition of smart collection)
    Thank you.

    You certainly want to use a single catalog.

    The stock answer, is that if you need to ask, you should not have more than one.

  • need help to change my macbook pro hdd

    Hello. need help to change my macbook pro 13 "mid 2012 hdd. witch HDD I buy 1 TB 7200 RPM 2.5 witch should I choose sata2? or sata3? If you know any suggestions, it would be really appreciated. And when I add the new hard disk can you restore with lion at el capitan?

    Thanks for the help.

    A 2012 MBP has SATA 3 connectivity.

    If you want to install a new HARD drive, the best approach is to clone the new from the old HARD drive.  It will duplicate the original HARD drive which has likely El Capitan installed.  I suggest to use Carbon Copy Cloner to the process.  It is not free, but worth it because you can use it to create a backup disc drag.

    Here's the Setup instructions for your MBP:

  • I need help to change my settings

    My local library has given some of their old computers because they have upgraded and got new. I was lucky enough to get one of these free computers and it works fine. However, I need help to change its settings. The computer will save not things once I turn it off. I guess that one who originally put the computer settings in place did not want the personal files of the user to be saved because the computer was for public use. Whenever I tried to turn off the computer or restart everything I've saved, changed, and/or downloaded is deleted and it goes back to how it was when I got it. How can I change the settings so that I can record things even when I turn it off? By the way the computer is an HP 75 PC with Microsoft Windows Professional Version 2002 - SP2

    The library may be installed as Windows SteadyState software that cancels the changes that make users.  If it is your computer, you can discover how to uninstall in the Windows SteadyState forum.

    If possible, I would recommend formatting the computer's hard drive, reinstall Windows from scratch and installing all the Windows updates available.  It is the only way to ensure that your computer is clean and not infected.

  • Help, my lightroom cannot find my catalog at startup

    Where can I find my catalog? This program works perfectly for 6 months. So that's what happened when I tried to re - open LIGHTROOM on my IMAC OSX 10.9.5 5.7... now I can't go through a screen that says "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom - select a catalog...". and there is a list that says "select a recent catalog to open...". BUT there is no listed catalogue click. WHERE is my 17 000 photo book? (everything was working fine until I added another FOLDER called ARchive and is my external storage drive...) How to use this form?

    Thanks a lot for your suggestions.

    PS I'd also renamed the PICTURES to THE PICTURES folder, don't you think not that LIghtroom cannot find it now? I looked for the .lrcat extensions and found a series of backups, so how can I get the LIghtroom program to find the catalog?

    Post edited by: LOUANN BRIZENDINE

    Of course, this is why Lightroom cannot find the catalog. But if you go to the folder all IMAGES should have a Lightroom folder. And inside this folder, you will find your catalog. It has the .lrcat extension. There are other files in this folder as well as Lightroom depends on. And since you renamed your pictures folder Lightroom cannot find these either. In any case, double-click the catalog file in the new location and everything should be good.

    Programs are designed to run on the dependencies in different folders. It's really not a good idea to rename you arbitrarily a folder. In fact, I would really say that you change the name of this folder to what it was originally, and let it. It's a standard folder that other programs might be addicted as well.

    And just to clarify, I would like to rename your PHOTOS ALL at what it was originally before you start looking for the catalogue and double click on it as I suggested. This folder of photos could almost supposed to constitute a system folder, in my opinion. It's that I don't think needs to be renamed.

  • help to change the size of precomp (weight and size using the script)

    Hi guys, need help with change precomp size (weight and size using the script), my problem in this... when I change the size of the model (height and weight) of GUI AE, AE change the size of the composition of the Center model, but if I change the size of the model of my script it change from upper left... so I need some how change in the center of scripts of composition or something like that?

    now I change size with this code

    MyComp.Width = myComp.Width.Width + 50;

    MyComp.Height = myComp.Width + 50;

    Hi Zipkiev,

    If you want to change the composition and all the layers it contains, there is a script: scale Composition.jsx that comes with Ae (in the Scripts folder) which does exactly the same thing.

    He puts on a scale by a factor uniform using a temporary null object. You can twist no uniform scaling by a factor.

    But if you want only to preserve the size of the layers and adjust their position so that their new position relative to the new comp Center is the same as previously, the script above can not help.

    In the simplest situation you just compensate for all positions of layers related by the same amount: [(compNewWidth-compOldWidth) * 0.5, (compNewHeigth-compOldHeight) * 0.5].

    Not sure it will work well in all situations (such as 3D with cameras).

    You can try it, it might work for you:

    COMP is the composition, newWidth, newHeight its new width/height

    var

    DX = (newWidth - comp.width) * 0.5;

    DY = (newHeight - comp.height) * 0.5;

    layer, n,

    p, j,

    value;

    COMP. Width = newWidth;

    COMP. Height = newHeight;

    for (n = 1; n<=comp.numLayers;>

    layer = comp.layer (n);

    If (layer.transform &! layer.parent) {}

    p = layer.transform.position;

    If {(p.numKeys===0)}

    p.value = value;

    value [0] += dx;

    value [1] += dy;

    p.setValue (value);

    }

    else {}

    for (j = 1; j<=p.numKeys;>

    value = p.keyValue (j);

    value [0] += dx;

    value [1] += dy;

    p.setValueAtKey (j, value);

    };

    };

    };

    };

  • Convert different types of files and merges them into a single pdf

    Hello world. I'm a girl from China.

    There is folder containing files of different types, such as doc, msg, jpeg etc. severl.   And I want to convert and merge them into a single pdf according to a certain order. I know that PDFmaker can do well, but the problem is that I have like fodlders 3000 + which requires the same work.

    I want to do with VBA and Acrobat. I have a Standard Version of Acrobat XI and a perfect license, by the way

    And I got the code (thanks, Karl Heinz Kremer) from the merger of two files into a single PDF, but how can I convert them to pdf first?

    Thank you very much.

    If I can finish, I would like to publish my code on this forum.

    You must upgrade to Acrobat Pro. Then, you would be able to use an Action to convert all the files in your file (s) to PDF format and later on another Action (+ script) to combine them into a single PDF file. So basically, it's a 3 step process. Is not ideal, but not too hard, either.
