How to synchronize the catalog between mac pro and imac?

I recently bought a macbook pro to work on the road.

Since I was a very big picture library (catalogue of 25 GB, + / 40000 photos), I enclose the keywords to make a nice database.

It is a hell of a job. But with my laptop now I could kill time and I am working on my catalog everywhere. This is the big idea.

I would like the same catalog to keep being synchronized between my imac and laptop. My Imac is still my main computer. This is attached to my NAS system and the database of photos of 6 TB.

All the images are in a catalog. On my laptop I don't need access to this database of real images. I just want to make selections, add keywords. Is there some way this can be done easily, without paying attention to the rather, I'm working on my laptop or My Imac, to avoid disrupting the catalogues.

When I import new images on my laptop, I make a new catalog and import/export this to my main catalog, once my files are on their place on my NAS system.

Hi Wannesnim,

What you describe is more or less how I work all the time. I use Dropbox to synchronize my catalog and use Smart Previews (also synced via Dropbox) to work with my images. I use a MacBook Pro on the go and a Windows machine at home. I created a video tutorial explaining how this is done:

    Personally, I would install just without turning off. Worst thing that will l be happen you will need to disable a. Does not mean that you must uninstall just disable and when you need it, just disable one of the other and activate the current. But I assume CS5 because he is not yet supported most probably don't even follow the activations. I'm guessing the last part but when trying to install and activate without disabling one will not harm what anyone,.

  • How to change the space between folder icon and the text on the personal toolbar?

    I have some files in the personal toolbar with just a letter to indicate what they are, but on the theme that I use, the letter is too far from the record, it belongs to and partially falls under following folder icon. I don't want to increase the space between all the icons to show the full letter, as this decreases the amount of icons that you can have in the toolbar. Instead, I want to reduce the space between the file and the text belonging to him, so he is right next to him instead of 5 pixels away.

    I found various entries to change the padding and margins in userChrome.css, but it's always around the icon, I don't know where to look to close the space between the icon and the corresponding text.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

    Did you check the value of the left margin of the text?

    You can set if necessary negative margin values.

    #PlacesToolbarItems .toolbarbutton-text { margin-left: -2px !important; }

    Add .bookmark-item [container] If this enough for the items in the folder

    #PlacesToolbarItems .bookmark-item[container] .toolbarbutton-text { margin-left: -2px !important; }
  • How to know the difference between RDM physical and virtual

    Hello!

    How can I see if a RDM (RAW device) is physical or virtual?

    I can see it in the vmx file or easily elsewhere?

    I have a few servers running both VMFS and RDM disks inside the virtual machine, and when you use ESX Ranger and make an instant backup, they are ignored to be backed up.

    Grateful for a response

    When you change the settings of the virtual machine and choose the RDM - there will be a radio button selected for the RDM mode, it is - it is really obvious. She'll be selected for the physical or virtual.

  • How can I change lightroom 5 previews smart on the book of mac pro (mbp) when lightroom master image files 5 are on my external hard drive is disconnected from the mbp

    How can I change lightroom 5 previews smart on the book of mac pro (mbp) when lightroom master image files 5 are on my external hard drive is disconnected from the mbp? So far when I try to disconnect the external hard drive the mbp, I get the pop following window: "external hard drive A" disc could not be ejected because it uses 'Lightroom '. Exit this application and try out this disc again. When I do that and restart Lightroom 5, Adobe Photoshop Lightroom - screen select catalog appears, but does not list my external hard drive A as a choice.

    I've been reviewing Adobe's Lightroom Help | Smart web page Previews Lightroom 5 and still have not been able to understand what I am doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated.

    HI Thomas,

    Thank you very much for your suggestions! They finally gave me the direction I go solve the problems I had. Basically, the Mac Book Pro based Lightroom irdata files still had thumbnails. Once I removed the and redirected Lightroom external hard disk, smart previews of the external drive work when the player is well off the MBP. Much obliged.

    I was wondering if you have any suggestions on how to backup all the files content and related data of Lightroom that exists on the external hard drive to another external hard drive as a backup? Ideally, it would be great if I could be able to launch security HD since the Mac Book Pro and do the work of Lightroom with the backup image files and intelligent previews correctly. Thanks again. Your help has been invaluable.

  • How to synchronize the start of IT and relaxation the Scan list (DAQmx Switch)

    Hello

    I want to measure samples of N to the AI0 of Council NI PXI 4461. The measurement starts on a rising edge of a digital triggering provided to the PFI0 of the same Board. The measure is configured with samples of N/2 pretrigged. So far, everything is under control...

    Using an NI PXI 2567 Board, the signal applied at the entrance the 4461 (AI0) switches between a V2 and V1 signal. I would like to synchronize the switch between the two signals with the trigger signal applied to the input of the PFI0 Governing Council 4461. In order to obtain samples of N/2 of V1 and V2 samples N/2. Synchronization of 1 to 5 ms would suffice!

    My question is how to synchronize the start of acquisition of AI pretrigged of 4461 with the switch control given by the Council of 2567?

    Thank you in advance for your help...

    PS: the configuration of the system is:

    -LabView 8.5

    -Chassis PXI-1044

    PXI-4461 on slot 2

    Module 4-slot PXI-2567

    Hi Frederic,.

    I came back to this recently and used the following examples to run the desired synchronization.

    PXI-4461: Acq & graph tension-Int Clk - dig Start & Ref .vi

    Samples per channel = 1000

    Rate (Hz) = 10000.00

    Start the trigger Source = / [name of the instrument DAQmx] / PXI_Trig0

    Onboard start = fall

    Reference Source Trigger = DAQmx Device Name] / PXI_Trig0

    Reference edge = fall

    Trigger samples = Variable (100, 500, 900)

    PXI-2567: Switch Scaning-SW Trigger.vi

    Advance the output terminal full = / [name of the instrument DAQmx] / PXI_Trig0

    Scan list = / [name of the instrument DAQmx] / ch0-> com0.

    Scan list = / [name of the instrument DAQmx] / ch1-> com1;

    Hardware configuration:

    The PXI-2567 module controls an external relay that switches between the voltage of 5 V on ch0 and ch1 0 V.

    The PXI-4461 connects to the COM of the external relay and therefore reads 5V when ch0 is connected; 0 v when ch1 is connected.

    Procedure: The above examples are used in the following procedure.

    1. run the PXI-4461 VI.  A start trigger (falling edge) is necessary to start collecting samples before firing.

    2. launch the module, PXI - 2567 VI.  When ch0 is initially (and immediately) on com0, a trigger is sent to PXI_Trig0.  The PXI-4461 will begin to acquire samples before firing.

    3. - click on the "Connect to the next" button on the front of the PXI - 2567 VI module.  This sends a trigger to entry software for the PXI-2567 module and the transitions of the scan for ch1-> com1 list.  Once the PXI-2567 module remains (debounced), advanced complete relaxation is sent on PXI_Trig0 for the PXI-4461.  The PXI-4461 will begin to acquire samples after outbreak.

    Note: Instead of the trigger of the software entry, an external input trigger can be used (e.g. PXI_Trig1).

    Results:

    > Before instant release of samples = 100

    Delay is caused by the time of actuation of external relay.

    > Before instant release of samples = 500

    Delay is caused by the time of actuation of external relay.

    > Before instant release of samples = 900

    Delay is caused by the time of actuation of external relay.

    I hope that the attached screws and the explanation above helps you and/or other customers who have this problem.

    If the Time Capsule and MacBook Pros are not on the same network, the MacBook is not backup in the time Capsule. You probably see what snapshots leaving MacBook on the local disk, until the two are reconnected. If you don't want that to happen, disable Time Machine on a different network.

  • How to synchronize the start time in the waveform graph

    Hi all

    I just find a solution in the forum to select the data you want in a grap of waveform with cursors, however, I don't know how to synchronize the time of beginning of waveform for the second graph. How can I extract start time of the waveform with the index data?

    Something like that?  It is a bit gross, but is what I think you're asking, should be able to use it as a starting point.

    The Max - Min is to make sure that the cursor is always valid.
