How the tags are stored and then backed up?  Don't want to do all this work if a system failure and the need to start over with saved photos will be all the work of marking saved.  Or IIR/when Lightroom is so more suitable or an option as the next photo p

Backblaze in particular, but it would be for any backup or future software I guess.

Tags are stored in the file in your catalog. If you want to have them available after a disk crash, you should make regular, automated backups of your catalog on a different physical disk files. You can enable this in Lightroom via settings-> General-> Backup catalog. Note: you should always take backups of your photos, this feature in Lightroom doesn't have backups of your photos.

If at some point you consider moving away from Lightroom, you can also write tags to the photos themselves (or in the case of RAW for the XMP sidecar files). This can be done by selecting all the photos and metadata-> saves the metadata of files (Note: this will take a lot of time if you have selected a large number of photos). You can also turn on the option to automatically catalog settings-->--> write metadata changes automatically to XMP. Any tags written via this method is readable by any other photo app that I know.

  • I have a question comparing Dreamweaver and Muse.  Can I create a website with Muse, then learn Dreamweaver, and edit the site Web of Muse?  Or would I need to start over with a new Web site based on Dreamweaver?

    I have a question comparing Dreamweaver and Muse.  Can I create a website with Muse, then learn Dreamweaver, and edit the site Web of Muse?  Or would I need to start over with a new Web site based on Dreamweaver?

    I went the same route. I started to want to learn web design and the Muse is an excellent tool. The code it generates, however, not to use it in Dreamweaver. This could be done, I think this isn't worth it, even for a real Geek. Once you get to Muse you will find there are things missing, stuff, you want to do, but are just tough in Muse or you can buy a widget. It is possible in DW and you get which through subscription, so it makes sense. Me what I know now, I'll go directly to DW to learn, except if you want results right now. If you don't want something to cause I stay with Muse and maybe learn to animate CC to add some pizazz to the site. If you only want a simple layout and a couple supporting stick with Muse pages if you want a larger site use DW. Good luck and check out this page to Muse on Google Plus Adobe Muse for beginners - community - Google +...

  • Replacement of the main computer, don't want to lose all the data synchronized.

    I use Firefox Sync with multiple devices at work and at home. My main computer, which is the original pc all data from first and I use to add new devices, is my work laptop. I'm being transferred across the country and no longer have this laptop.

    I need somehow put up my home pc or my new laptop to work as the new main computer, but I don't want to lose all data. Should I export all the data from the laptop the existing work and import it on the new pc, then installed Sync all over again on my other devices (Mercury browser for iphone and ipad)? Or is there an easier way to do it?

    Thank you
    Jake

    Hello, first of all please create a backup of your profile of your work pc folder, so that you have your data available in all cases: back up and restore the information contained in the profiles of Firefox

    I do not think that there is something like a 'primary' feature in your accounts sync - all devices need to be at the height, you can simply delete your old laptop to sync & add the new laptop to the account:
    Go to firefox > options > tab sync on your old laptop. Please make sure you as your user name, password of the account and the recovery key is known to you (you can access the recovery key under 'manage accounts' "-write it down if you haven't done so already '), then click on separate device in the Synchronize tab.

    You can then add your new laptop to work on behalf of sync existing either by coupling a device while you're close to your pc at home or with your user account, password and recovery key.

  • Since I downloaded El Capitan I get a notice of entry of device of 'Santa Barbara School District' saying that they can automatically configure my Mac!... I don't want that at all

    Since I downloaded El Capitan I get a notice of entry of device of 'Santa Barbara School District' saying that they can automatically configure my Mac!... I don't want that at all!... It appears every 30 minutes or so... El Capitan is safe?

    The computer has a serial number which is included in a registration of devices belonging to an organization. If you do not belong to this organization and that you didn't acquire the device with him, then there was an error or the device (or the logic board) is stolen. If the unit was purchased used, for example on Ebay, or if the card has been replaced by an unauthorized service provider, then it is almost certainly stolen goods. Otherwise, you must take the device to an Apple Store or to an other authorized service provider to have serial number has changed. May asked you proof of ownership.

  • How can I put documents scanned on email? I see where the items are stored and I started an email.

    This is first time trying to send attachments (if that's what I'm supposed to do with the scanned documents) digitized images and documents.  I started an email and click on the attachments, but?

    What email program are you using? When you start a new message, there should be a button join, or maybe in the Menu bar: Insert | Attachment? Just 'Browse' to the location you saved the file and double-click it. You may be able to simply drag the file in the new message window and it attaches itself.

  • How my pictures are stored in Lightroom?

    I don't sound stupid here, but...  I use a demo of Lightroom 3 on a Mac.  I have 'imported' 15 GB of photos on a trip of two weeks, in Lightroom.  I downloaded the maps and backed up the files on my laptop HD and those imported.  If I go to my user > pictures > Lightroom and check the "Lightroom3 catalog.lrcat" it's size is only 8.5 MB.

    I thought I knew the lrcat is just a database, then this size would be wise.  Then I copied all the 15 GB of photos on an external hard drive, it disconnected and then deleted the photos from my laptop HD.

    I can * still * go look at all the photos in Lightroom and apparently I can always export full-size images - I selected about 6 of them and have exported the images full size.  Here's the question - I do not understand where they come from.

    If lrcat is just a database, where is stored the photos full size?  If the database pointing to the original images, which are now deleted, then how Lightroom allows me to export the images full size.

    I use Aperture on two other computers, and the photo library is large enough to hold the actual photographs, what he does.  That's why I have trouble understanding Lightroom works in terms of storage of full pictures great.

    I really appreciate any help to understand how it works all

    Thank you very much

    In the library Module, select a photo, and then choose the slideshow menu item / in the Finder. This should show where lightroom is to find your image.

  • How to remove unwanted plugins (and no I don't want to read all the articles unrelated who never answer your question)?

    I want to erase the unwanted plugins in Fire Fox. A plugin has even a warning about its use does not (Java Deployment Toolkit). But every time I ask 'how to remove a plugin?', I get redirected to an article that does not answer the question. And then the cycle starts again without ever actually answer the question.

    IT IS NECESSARY TO UNINSTALL FIREFOX TO DELETE A PLUGIN?

    Hello 4646tm, I understand your frustration. Here's how to remove a plugin:
    Click the menu and then click on Add ons, which looks like a piece of a puzzle.

        Type about:plugins into the Location bar and press Enter to display the About Plugins page.
       Each entry in the About Plugins page will have "File:" and "Path:", showing the name and location of the plugin file. Use Windows Explorer to navigate to the folder shown for the plugin you want to remove.
       Rename the file to add an X in front of the filename (for instance, npswf32 becomes Xnpswf32).
    

    You said that you do not want links, but I'll give you a couple just in case you do not want to uninstall the plugins manually. These links are to pages that tell you how to run the uninstall it please do not hesitate to tell me if you think that they are not useful.

    Uninstall Adobe Flash - Windows

    Uninstall QuickTime - Windows Vista/7

    Follow the instructions:
    Download Microsoft Silverlight (instructions to uninstall also)

    I just put a couple of the most common out there, if you have a specific plugin you don't want it please tell me and I can dig to the top of the page for it, also you can do manual uninstall I gave you.

    Have a great day!
