How to reinstall Lightroom and keep their existing catalogs?

My LR is weird lately.    I'm sure that the program files are corrupted somehow.       I would like to reinstall it, but I don't want to loss of thousands of photos that I've already implemented in it.

Reinstall will affect what anyone, in fact it usually won't make anything.

Best

Make sure you run the latest version of LR (3.4.1)

Optimize the catalog... you should do this whenever you back up any way, I do that everyday me.

Make sure you have enough disk space on any drive, you have the catalog location.

If you run windows to ensure that the drive is not fragmented.

A lot of other things you can do to improve the performance of LR and many links here... re install is not one of them.

  • How do I completely erase an existing catalog so I can start over?

    How do I completely erase an existing catalog so I can start over?

    Thank you.

    Yes, you can have two separate catalogues for personal use and work.

    If a book is opened, you switch to the other catalog using file-> open recent or-> open the catalog.

    You can not have two different catalogs open at the same time.

    Make sure you do not import into the catalog wrong!

  • ODI can load data into the planning and REPLACE the existing data?

    Hello
    ODI (9.3.1.1) can load data into the planning and REPLACE the existing data?
    Currently of our ODI by "ADD" load to existing data data - so that is I accidentally run the load twice, it would be double planning numbers. I don't know how to do it to REPLACE so that running more than twice has no effect.

    With the help of the essbase adapter you would use a rule of load, in the State of charge, you can set whether to replace or add to existing values. It is not difficult to pass.

    See you soon

    I guess my computer Windows 10 cannot speak on the new secure server this update tries to connect to. For now, I just went and reinstalled and ignored the 2.2 update or anything like that. The difficulty of this Apple. What did your so-called security update is breaking the Apple software update.

    I did the update when it appeared and it worked well for me. I even used it to update iTunes earlier this week, but this morning noticed the same error on two machines. Clearly question server side of Apple, they need to fix

    There is not much to explain. On the low side in the Middle it is placed to cover memory (fixed with two screws). Remove the cover and you will see 2 slots there.

  • How to compile and install the kernel modules after nation and nipalk for installation of Gentoo 64 bit?

    We are trying to install a PCIe 6251 DAQ card in a box of Gentoo 64 bit running Linux kernel 2.6.28 - gentoo-r5 4.3.2 - gcc and glibc - 2.8.  We have installed RPM utilities to manage the installation.  The current problem is that we are not able to compile and install the kernel modules: nidmxfk, nimsdrk, nimstsk and nipxirmk.  Here's a summary of what we have done so far, and to what extent we got.

    First of all, we have changed the configuration of the kernel that we could export the init_mm unused symbol by changing the configuration option of the CONFIG_UNUSED_SYMBOLS = o kernel and recompile the kernel.  Then we installed LabView 8.6.1.  Then we ran the nation 1.9 installer who has installed the source code in vain on the compilation.  To resolve this problem, we have changed the function of pte_offset to pte_offset_kernel by editing the file/usr/local/natinst/nation/configures following the instructions here:

    http://decibel.NI.com/content/docs/doc-4511

    We were then able to compile and install the kernel nation module thanks to:

    . / configure
    do
    make install

    lsmod said that nation has been properly installed.  Then we ran the installer for DAQmx 8.0.1 by:

    . / INSTALL - nodeps

    To do this, we have received errors indicating that LabView support could not be installed because check addictive (incorrectly we think) stated that labviewbase86 has not been installed; This caused the installer to have an abortion.  Therefore, we refused to install support for LabView 8.6 and revived the installation program which produces the output:

    Installation of the driver NOR-DAQmx Distribution of Linux Installer version 8.0.1f0...

    Already to jump Edward - 1.9.0 - f0.noarch.rpm installation, same or newer
    installed.

    After Installation...

    At this point, after reading this report, we used the Gentoo rc update utility to add several scripts for the boot runlevel initialisation:

    update of RC - a boot nipple
    update of RC - a bunch of nipxirmu
    update of RC - a bunch of mxssvr
    update of RC - a bunch of nisvcloc
    update of RC - a bunch of nidevldu

    When the computer reboots, you get an error message indicating that the following kernel modules are not: nidmxfk, nimsdrk, nimstsk and nipxirmk.  lsmod shows that the nation and nipalk are installed, but no other kernel modules NOR are present.  modprobe-l shows that only nation and nipalk are available.

    So we have several questions:

    1. we install drivers in the correct order?  Should use us NI-VISA 4.5 or NOR-488. 2 rather than DAQmx 8.0.1?

    2. What kernel modules should be loaded for this equipment run?  How to compile and install the ones that we have yet, specifically nidmxfk, nimsdrk, nimstsk and nipxirmk?  Are there others?

    3. How can we get the installer to properly recognize that we have installed LabView Core and install support for LabView?  Are there additional kernel modules related to the support of LabView?

    4. What is the symbolic link that was not created in the DAQmx installation report? (ln: create the symbolic link ' / usr/local/include/NIDAQmx.h': no such file or directory)?

    I apologize for so many questions, but these seem to be the last obstacles to obtaining OR runs correctly on this system.  Is there other information that we can provide that would be useful?  Thanks for any help or suggestions you can offer.

    Craig

    Hey Craig,.

    Given that you use 64-bit Linux all kernel modules must be compiled for 64 - bit.  User mode binaries can be 32-bit, assuming that you have installed the 32-bit support libraries.

    NOR-DAQmx is a complex architecture and requires several kernel modules to support your PCIe card.  Most of these kernel modules have not been brought to support 64-bit Linux.  Some kernel modules are components infrustructure that are shared with other pilots OR as NI-VISA and NOR-488. 2 and have been brought to support 64-bit Linux.  Unfortunately, you need all the modules to use your hardware.

    I hope that answers your question.
