How do you combine Lightroom catalogs?

I intend to make a trip and I'll take along my MacBook Air to process my photos using Lightroom.  How to combine this catalogue of RAW images and the processing of the files with the existing catalog on my main computer at home?

Ideally I would be able to save pictures from trip to a specific folder on my computer at home?

Thank you

Cliff

Hi Cliff

I have a catalog of travel on a large map SDXC on my Macbook Pro. If I do edit, rating and keywords etc on the road. I have then import the mobile catalog in my main Lightroom catalog on the desktop computer and erase the card ready for the next trip.

  • 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

    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).

    Can you tell me how to register my catalog of lightroom on 3 different hard drives? I have it only on a single HDD from now.

    Hi danielleg,

    Greetings!

    Connect your drives on the computer on which your catalog is present

    Simply copy the catalog and stick to 3 different disks.

    The location of the Lightroom Catalog is typically C:\Users\UserName\Pictures\Lightroom (Windows) and User\Pictures. Lightroom (MAC)

    Lightroom supplied key is usually cross-platform key it should work on both windows and mac at the same time.

    You can download lightroom for mac here 4

  • How can you tell Lightroom where to save images?

    Sometimes it seems that Lightroom has an own mind when it comes to saving. More precisely: on a Mac, when I decide to click on a selected image is displayed in library view I choose export > full size JPEG he continues to save the image in a folder, it remembers former stops without asking me where I want that image to export.

    How can I get control on Lightroom and export images using the method of control and the direct files to folders where I want the saved images?

    Thank you

    Ken

    Unfortunately, if you want to export files in different places whenever you need to use the command export to open the window that I show above.

    In an ideal world that LR would have a stop option in presets that interrupted the process, we helped define the location, then proceeds to processes based on various parameters of resolution, file type, etc. Some of the third-party export plug-ins may have this setup already, but I have not tend to use them, so can't really say.

  • How do you get Lightroom CC on my new iMac? I currently use it on this iMac 1 and want to use it on the new. I am using a different email but address using the same wi - fi connection. Thank you.

    I just bought a new iMac, and after setting up, I need to find a way to access the Photoshop and Lightroom CC CC. I am using the same airport and wifi but a different e-mail address, if that matters. ?

    Hi Captainlenny

    You must first download Creative cloud Application Download Adobe Creative Cloud apps | CC free trial Adobe

    Then sign in with your Adobe Id (The same Id with which you bought the map) see connect and disconnect to activate Cloud Creative applications

    • You cannot use a different Email address to connect
    • If Creative cloud says "you are already you connect to maximum authorized devices" select " sign me out of all the other thing ' so that you can connect.
