  OK, so that's my scenario:

  • QUESTION: WHEN I USE THE [Sub-master] .lrcat, on the new computer, don't need to inculde also files .lrdata [Sub-master] on this external drive?
  • If .lrdata [Sub-master] is regenerated automatically, where he gets all the work (from the preview files) that I did, when I was working, using the .lrdata [Sub-master] when he was on the local disk.

  Thanks again for staying with me on this.  I don't know that your answer will solve my confusion. -Craig

  Questions 1)

  Not because the LRDATA file is fair previews, what LR displays on your screen for a faster loading of the image and will be recreated. The previews only stored in the folder LRDATA is the basic overview created at time of importation for the display of thumbnails and previews of 1:1 for images that you have actually looked in the Loupe View or I guess that appears in the develop module.

  He get all the data to create the image themselves file extracts.

  If you have several files on your system that have pictures in them and you select one of them that you have not looked at in a while, you will notice LR creation of previews for these images, there will be 3 white dots in the upper right corner of the thumbnail. It's LR creation of previews for the thumbnail view. If you scroll quickly in the grid view, you'll notice a few thumbnails of images are gray, until you stop scrolling, then the upper left tile will come in clear view and the white dots will appear on the other images. It's LR creating previews for those of other images. Once LR created the preview of thumbnails that are on your screen, white spot will disappear. If you scroll down again, you will see more white dots

  If you switch to another folder that LR begins again create preview images in this folder. The total number of previews created and stored based on caching of the preview you have in the catalog settings dialog in the management of the files tab.

  If not, you need not the LR Previews.lrdata folder. Whenever LR is not very good this folder with a catalog he recreates it to store previews in.

  

• Where the lrcat file?

  I replaced my hard drive after a crash and were recovering the data.  Using Lightroom 3.6 on Windows 7, where should I put the .lrcat file?  Does go in C:/users/name/pictures/lightroom

  It can go anywhere you want. Lightroom it by default in, I think, my images, but you can place it where it makes more sense for you. Once you have restored, double-click it, LR will open it, and you leave.

  You should probably tell LR to create previews.

• Lightroom 6: no icon for the lrcat file association

  On Windows Pro 8.1, the catalog Lightroom 6 files with extension lrcat, are presented is no longer with an appropriate icon.

  It is not a big problem, because the files are always associated and therefore open with Lightroom. Unfortunately, I get bored easily the catalog files in Windows Explorer without the icons.

  I updated Lightroom 5 to 6 and removed version 5 before installing the new version.

  I tried to restore an icon associated with the file by changing the default program to another and return to Ligthroom. It did not work.

  Can MS I manually associate a catalog with an icon?

  See you soon,.

  Dave

  If you don't mind using Regedit, simply find the key of "DefaultIcon" under "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AdobeLightroom6.lrcat". There should be an entry there called "(Default)" value. Just pop the value of your lightroom executable (default should be "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Lightroom\lightroom.exe".) That should solve the problem for you.

• HOWTO include the .jar file in the development and production?

  Hello

  JDeveloper 11.1.1.2, ADF, JSF.

  In want user Jsoup.jar in my application and added with "Add JAR/Directory" to the project. That works well in development (JDeveloper).

  I had hoped that the file Jsoup.jar would be included in the ear file automatically.

  But when I run the application in our production system (test) I get a ClassNotFound Exception.

  How I'm doing wrong (or Miss)

  Best regards

  Erik

  Maybe you can add this jug as a library (in tools-> manage libraries if this option is available in your version of jdev)

  In addition, check the filters in the deployment descriptor settings.

• How do I reduce the data file after the moving images to another data file

  All,
  
  I did a test of simepl to see how should I reduce my data file after the transfer of the objects thereof.
  
  I had an image in my data file USER_image, which is about 9 GB in size. I created the new data under the new tablpespace file and moved all the images in this new space of tables. So my old tablespace of image with its data file is now empty. At least there is not all user objects.
  
  Now I tried to resize the old datafile (USER_image) to a smaller value, but I keep this error
  "ORA-03297: file contains data beyond the value required to RESIZE.
  
  The file size is 9 GB and I tried to resize to 8 GB but it still does not allow me.
  
  Is it possible to resize a data file after moving all its purpose?
  I'm something wrong or missing something?
  
  Thanks in advance.

  If you old image tablespace is indeed empty (you need to run a statement against DBA_SEGMENTS to check) then you can bring it, data files included.
  After this, you can create a 'new' tablespace with the old name and desired data file sizes.

• Compression or reduce the image files

  I'm trying to back up my computer, but I have never enough space to do so.  I noticed that some of my images are beyond 1 GB by themselves.  Is it possible to compress or to minimize the whole photo file to take less space without having to go into each photo and change its size?

  ================================
  Do you mean that only 1 photo is more than 1 GB?

  Among the following gifts might be worth a try.

• Reduce the VMDK files

  I have a W2003 server, with multiple partitions (all VMDK individual files within a data store), I want to shrink one of the partitions (not o/s) and use space to push another two, - is this possible?

  Thank you

  Another solution is to add a smaller vmdk, copy all data (with the guest operating system) and remove the old vmdk.

  Or you can use vmkftools and copy the vmdk into a thin disk.

• Reduce the size of all the elements and text

  I have 2 brochures A4 30 pages in which I want to collapse all around 15% to increase the white space by expanding the top and outside margins. The booklets to include text and images, that everything I want to reduce proportionally. I thought to increase the page size, then somehow reducing the PDF files, but I don't know if this is possible.

  I need a simple PDF file and cannot ask the printers to print at a different size (it "s complicated, but I can't count on them to do it properly)

  Any ideas?

  Your best bet is probably to import the .indd that you, or a PDF file made from it, in a new doc, the scaling and the postioning in the new size and spot.

  You will find a clever script that I think can automate this process for you to the ndd - files.php http://indesignsecrets.com/zanelli-releases-multipageimporter-for-importing-both-pdf-and-i

• Help! Replaced the open the .lrcat LR with old backup file

  LR is open edition has just completed a big wedding. I went to use folder and copy the .lrcat file in my backup disk, but instead, I got an old version of the .lrcat file and replace the file, I've worked on that. I can't undo this action. I'm afraid to touch or do something. I can't lose all the work that I do.

  Help, please! Thank you.

  I use LR CC and a Mac v10.10.3.

  If you did this bad drag-and - drop or copy-and - paste using the tools of the operating system, lose you all the work that you have just completed. There is nothing that LR can do to help at this point. There is no unwritten 'saved' that can be done. The best you can hope for is to be able to recover some of your work from a previous backup.

• How to read the lrcat user change history?

  How can I get the history list using the SDK?

  And if it is not possible, someone would be interested in a script that does this by analyzing the .lrcat file?

  Thank you

  I hacked something together in C++ so I could plug it directly into my code. I think I've deleted any specific code here and left generic, print all data collected.

  This requires the library company.

• Using Time Machine to back up the .lrcat

  I have watched and read several tutorials on how to backup the catalog and none of them address the possibility or the option to backup using Time Machine.  Am I missing something here?  If I hung on my TM system, wouldn't I automatically have a backup of the .lrcat file?  I appreciate assistance as I am a newbie of LR.

  It is best to avoid allowing Time Machine backup you Lightroom 1 or 2 catalogs when the application runs. Thus, placing Lightroom 1 or 2 in the list of Time Machine is recommended. Lightroom beta 3 and most likely the final version are automatically placed in the list of Time Machine when they run, but deleted when closed. This ensures that Time Machine does not interfere with the Lightroom Catalog when it is open, but it saves when it is closed.

• PC crashed during 6 start Lightroom. Now open habit. Can not find the lock file

  Hello.

  My PC stops inexplicably while Lightroom 6 began and then just rebooted. (Windows 7 i7 PC)

  Now Lightroom does not start and a "Catalog Adobe" said dialog box could not be opened because another application has already opened it.

  A quick search on the internet said the locking file must delete, but I'm not. An Adobe help page shows me:[username]\Pictures\Lightroom\Lightroom 5 Catalog.lrcat.lock C:\Users\

  First of all, I'm on LR6 and my start up programs are on a small SSD. So if I navigate on this hard drive, then program file Adobe\Adobe Lightroom I see many files, then a may list files. None gives me a clue to what is a lock file or look like lrcat.lock.

  I'm not very savy on a PC and would be grateful of urgent assistance. I tried to uninstall the program and then reinstall, but in vain.

  Thank you very much.

  Hi andys62004617,

  lock file is located in the exact location as well as your catalog.

  Search under Pictures\Lightroom\ Catalog.lock of Lightroom and delete (do not remove the .lrcat files because it's your main catalog)

• LrCat file and Photo files

  You want to check my understanding of the following:

  I need to TIME the LrCat file AND the pictures themselves to be able to view and modify the pictures in mode develop?

  Is this correct?

  I ask because I'm trying to make room on my Mac and want to be sure that when I delete all the most recent back-up bars that I have don't end delete all my photos.

  This raises the question of whether if my backups are incremental IE if I do a session of 100 photos Monday, another 100 Tuesday, 100 more Wednesday so that the total number of photos within each backup each day would be:

  Monday: 100

  Tuesday: 200

  Wednesday: 300

  My understanding is correct?

  Any comments/advice appreciated.

  Thank you

  The catalog (LRCAT) does not contain photos. It stores information about where are the pictures and all adjustments made using Lightroom. You can delete older backups from the catalog with confidence. You can keep multiple backups just in case.

• Windows XP: reduce the size of the image

  Original title: Mr.

  I have photos that I had to go through power point to get the format to jpeg. Now, the pictures have a big square around the size of the photo. When I move the sides of the frame changes size.

  How can I reduce the size of these pictures to adapt to another application

  Thank you

  It is not really clear what you want to do, but if you download IrfanView(free), you will probably find that it can do what you want.

  IrfanView can: discovered many types of image file (jpg not only); convert the file format of one image to another. Crop images; resize images (as well physically and file size); and much more
