How to export pictures from a sd card to lightroom and and external hard drive at the same time

Hello

Is it possible that I can export my photos from my lightroom cameras sd card and an external hard drive at the same time so I have pictures original/master in both places

Thanks in advance

Hi Robert!

Looks like you want to make a backup during import. If this is the case, you can designate a different location for a second copy when importing.

  1. Check the mark a second copy of box in the management of the files Panel and choose your external drive in the menu drop-down
  2. Then you set regular destination of Lightroom in the Destination panel.

However, if you mean that you want in the foreground images in Lightroom, but have them physically located on an external drive, then all you need to do is choose this drive in the Destination panel. Lightroom Catalog can be on a different drive.

I find it useful, however, to use the automatic backup in file management Panel in case.

    Hi guys,.

    First post, new to all this.

    I bought a Toshiba 3 to Stor.E Canvio external hard drive to get a load of movies and music out of my iMac.

    1. what type of backup is? What application did you use to create this backup?
    2. What is the extension of this backup file? Is this backup a single file?
    2 have you tried to copy the files and images directly on the hard drive?
     
    If these files are simply saved in the hard disk, you can simply copy and paste the files on the disk. If it's a backup file provide the information identified above to help you further.

  • How to copy a folder to an external hard drive with the same file on it and have it just add new files instead of replace all old already on there, as well as to add new?

    I want to copy a folder to an external hard drive with the file already on it and not having to replace all the files each time. I just want to click and drag the folder to the external hard drive and have it add new files I've added in the folder on my pc over time on the external hard drive. It's annoying to have to replace alllll the files each time.

    Thank you!

    A simple way is to use the second copy of Centered.com software. It is reasonably priced and will do exactly what you want. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

    I can download more pictures from a SD card to Lightroom is.  I can download pictures or Aperture but Lightroom CC gives me the error "the following files were not imported because they could be readable." and then it lists all the files on the disc. I shoot in Raw.  I know it's a problem because I see the number of entries when I have the problem of google.  What I don't see is Adobe recognizing the problem OR suggest a solution.  It is a big problem since I have to find ways to get photos in Lightroom.  Can you please tell me what I should do to get my pictures downloaded.  I had no problem before subscribing to Adobe CC when I used 5 Lightroom.

    A changes to privileges stick? Check the folder again. Should look like this - see image. Also check similar to the folder that you copy photos to.

  • Where and how can I reinstall the external hard drive to the new HD to the computer?

    Original title: HD crashed.

    I want to thank the person who answered my question about the HD crashed I saved all my data and window xp. My next question is, how and where can I reinstall external hard drive for the new HD to the computer? Should I send it to drive c or where? I'm not strong when it comes to computers. I know just enough to get me in trouble. Thank you.

    Hello!

    You will need to use a full copy of Windows XP.  Should be a sticker with the product key on the side of your desk or below if it is a laptop.

    Once you have this drive, you can reinstall Windows XP.  After you have installed all the software and drivers, you will be able to transfer all your data to the new HARD drive.

    If you don't have a copy of Windows XP, you can probably get a copy of the recovery from the manufacturing of computer media.  Just to provide the model and serial number and they should sent it.

  • How to move files from the external hard drive to the keywords WITH main drive?

    On a recent trip, I have uploaded thousands of images on an external hard drive that I used with my laptop. I keyworded and edited these files on the road.

    Back home, I want to move the files (keywords and all) to my permanent LR library that resides on a different hard drive. How can I do this transfer without losing the keywords?

    Thank you in advance.

    Hi Jessica,.

    There seems to be a confusion of terms here: the catalog is where LR stores all of its information (that your designated as LR library in your original post).

    While you were on the road, did you use LR to add keywords to photos, or have you used another tool? If you have used LR, you already have a catalog on the laptop, which you can then import into your main LR catalog (using import to catalogue option in the file menu). Let us know if you get stuck anywhere.

  • How to have an amount and cut in two at the same time

    Hi everyone, I need to display the data as in the example (4 areas):
    Product Category           Number of tickets by category               Product               Number of tickets by product
    Category 1                              100                            product A                             50
                                                                           product B                              50

    Category 2                               10                             product C                              8
                                                                           product D                               2
    As you can see, I need to see the total number of tickets for each category of product and then cut in two by product.

    In an attempt to have this result, I take the following fields the sector of activity:

    Product category
    Count (tickets_id)
    Product

    but I'm not able to have the amount of tickets per category and the quantity of tickets per product at the same time within the report... because as soon as I shared by product I lose the total number of tickets by category...

    How can I have this two amounts together? The first designating all of the notes of the category and the second split by product at the same time?

    I tried to do a calculation count (count (tickets_id))... but it is not possible... I got the error "Aggregate functions Nested are not permitted..."

    Any help will be appreciated

    Thanks in advance

    Alex

    Hi Alex,
    In cases like yours when you need two different levels of aggregation, you can use the analytical functions.
    From BA to select only the Product_Category elements and product and create new calculations:

    1. on behalf of the tickets:
    Count (tickets_id) more (Product_Category partition)
    2. for the number of tickets per product:
    Count (tickets_id) more (partition Product_Category, product)

    you will get:

    Product_category count by product by product category
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    1 100 A 50 category product
    Category 1 100 product B 50
    Category 2 10 C 8
    Category 2 10 D 2

    Now if you want you can use the sort and apply the sorting group so it will look like your table model.

    Note that I assumed that a product may be in a category.
    If you got another one then just change groups in the calculation according to the needs.

  • How to copy a catalog of external hard drive to the hard drive of the computer to use smart insights not connected to the external hard drive?

    I am very new to LR5. I put LR5 in place so that my catalog and photos are on an external hard drive. I discovered that when not connected to the hard drive, LR5 can't find my catalog, therefore, I can't do any editing in intelligent insights, unless it is connected to an external hard drive. How can I fix this so that I can edit photos without being connected to an external hard drive. Is it possible to copy the catalog out of the hard disk on the computer's hard drive or I have to re-establish a new catalog using LR5? Must the catalog always be loaded onto the hard drive? Thank you in advance.

    Yes that's correct. The LR catalog must be on the computer's internal drive. Then when you have smart previews activated you can change the image without going through the reader that they are connected. When you connect this drive images will be updated.

    Simply COPY these 4 folders on your internal drive in a folder called Lightroom catalog that you create. Then open LR and go on the file menu point and select open catalog. Navigate to the folder you created called catalog in Lightroom and select the Lightroom Catalog.lrcat 5 file and click Open. Once restart Lightroom open change preferences, > preferences, and under the general tab, in the catalog default section make sure that "when starting to use this catalogue:" listings in the area where you copied the files. Something like Macintosh HD/Wherever, have created it this folder/that folder name/Lightroom catalog.lrcat 5.
