Lightroom for mobile sync with old catalogue?

Hello

I been using Lightroom since version 2, but are just now digging in my main computer editing, that's why I hope to support with the following:

I use Lightroom CC on my iMac. That's where I also my main drive store my catalog (I only use a single catalog for all of my photos).

Now, I have learned more about mobile Lightroom and find it very useful, or so I thought. Of course, it's nice to share intelligent previews with my iPhone and iPad, but I want edit files with my MacBook while I'm away from my main computer.

While I read on Dropbox as possibility of synchronization, I find this is much easier, as the copy of my catalog files. As a result, I simply copied the catalog on an external hard drive, which is now connected to my MacBook. Since this is the 'same' catalog, Lightroom mobile syncs everything beautiful. The changes that I did also appear on my iMac.

Now my question:

I can just let this copied and finally old catalog on my external hard drive and synchronize only via mobile Lightroom? I don't care much more editing Smart surveys that have been synchronized via mobile Lightroom. My thoughts: since I work on the synchronized files, no matter how 'old' catalog is that I use. Previews will be always up to date.

Is this correct or am I missing something?

Looking forward to your experience and your thoughts on it.

Greetings

I quickly read your messages, and while it seems useful, I need offline. Have not written it yet, but I travel a lot and want to change the 12 years and + flight hours I find myself regularly.

Appreciate if this thought and your entry.

Edit:

I have install a 2.5 hard drive "(1 to) to contain my catalog and all the photos are now imported with smart insights." This way I can edit on the go, without wearing my tough guys around.

Not a great solution, but one that will work for now.

  • Lightroom for mobile sync shows do not all files

    Hi all:

    I use mobile sync between my iPad and iMac. When I open Lightroom on laptop brand new and connect to my Adobe account, I do not see a synchronized catalog. There is just an empty catalog. My iMac and my iPad see content synchronized and seem to sync whenever I edit collections. However, the computer laptop do not, despite the fact that, on this laptop:

    • I am connected to my account Adobe CC (in the menu at the top of the left page of the LR window and creative cloud)
    • Lightroom Mobile Sync is on.
    • I'm connected with my Adobe ID in the Lightroom preferences with my correct ID from Adobe.

    Attached screenshots.

    I had the same problem on another laptop I have owned. (Today), I recently bought a new laptop and installed LR on it, meet a former and authorizing a new. The exact number of devices present in my Adobe account online as does all my happy mobile. If anyone has any ideas, I would be grateful. Thank you.

    Fix.

    Just because laptops are mobile, which in itself does not classify them as Mobile Devices. You can see the contents of specific collections of synchronized to a catalog on mobile devices like Android devices, iPhone, and iPad.

    This catalog can reside on a laptop or desktop computer. Technically there is no catalog "Mobile".

  • Lightroom for mobile sync disabled

    Hello

    I recently installed lightroom mobile for android and that you have completed the trial period and it seems to sync is now disabled.  I already have an active subscription to CC (students and teachers edition) as well as the full purchase of lightroom 6, as well as plenty of stand-alone CS5 master collection.  I'd be able to synchronize with the application android mobile with my current plan of cc lightroom or do I need to downgrade to the photography for this plan?  I would like to be able to synchronize if possible but want to continue to use other applications (other than the specific photograph) that come with the complete plan of CC.

    Thanks in advance,

  • Is there a Lightroom for mobile compatible with my Sony tablet Android 4.0.3?

    Is there a Lightroom that could be installed inmy Sony tablet with Android 4.0.3?

    If you go to the game store, Google play, Play.google.com and go to the mobile application of LR is will tell you if it's compatible with this version of Android and or with which Android devices you have. It will say something like "this app is compatible with some, all or none" of your devices. You must click on install, then scroll through the list of devices to know which are and are not compatible. But if she doesn't, then none are compatible.

    But I don't think it is. I think you need Android 4.4 and above. But I could be wrong

  • Why Lightroom 5.6 stopped mobile sync with Lightroom?

    All of a sudden Lightroom 5.6 stopped mobile sync with Lightroom. I created 3 new collections that I need to sync... and Lightroom for desktop computer is just sitting there saying sync 28 pictures (of which there are 39 to synchronize) and their synchronization does not despite being connected and saying sync is turned on.  What is going on?

    Could you try to delete the sync.lrdata file, and then restart LrD. It would restart/refresh sync (metadata only).

    Remove the Sync.lrdata can solve everything that is the question.  Or, at least, could trigger to reproduce. So to remove the Sync.lrdata start Lr and wait until he either synchronize or gets stuck again and creates a new diagnostic log that can at this stage we hope to provide some clues.

    You can find the file sync.lrdata here:

    On Mac, it's to /Users/Library/Caches/Adobe/Lightroom/Sync Data / Sync.lrdata

    On the victory, it would be in C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Adobe\Lightroom\Caches\Sync Data\Sync.lrdata

    You can trigger the journal diagnostig through Desktop LR-Mobile with Lightroom > preferences, and when you hold down the ALT key, you will notice a diagnostic log button to generate

    Please send me a journal diagnostig Desktop LR - better as a private message with a downloadable dropbox link.

    BTW. Are there listed in Lr Desktop Sync errors?

    Thank you

    You can download the Mobile Lightroom on the Apple store app and you would not be charged for it as it a free app.

  • Is it possible to prevent Firefox for Mobile sync my laptop home page

    I have Firefox 4 in my partition Ubuntu my laptop and Firefox 5 on side Windows Vista from this partition.

    I don't have intalled Firefox for Mobile on my phone yet, but I like the idea. However the home page I have Ubuntu as actually a collection of three pages, and I don't really want to not use on any other device. I really want to visit one of these three pages on my phone.

    Which option would prevent me sync my homepage?
    Where can I find this option?
    What is the best device to access since?

    There are services.sync.prefs.sync associated with which to synchronize prefs prefs and you can set the pref services.sync corresponding to false to prevent the synchronization of this preference.

    You can set the services.sync.prefs.sync.browser.startup.homepage pref to false on the subject: config page.

    See:

    To open the topic: config page, type Subject: config in the address bar (address) and press the 'Enter' key, as you type the url of a Web site to open a Web site.

    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access this page.

    • Use the filter at the top bar of the on: page config to more easily spot a preference.
    • Preferences that have changed see the bold (user set).
    • Preferences you can restore the default value or change via the context menu.

  • How tweak you to adjust noise reduction in lightroom for mobile?

    Currently, it provides only low/medium/high, but a minimum of 25 is VERY aggressive. I find that I rarely need anything beyond 10 to 25 or the images gets too much "trouble". Why not just provide the same volume as in the desktop version (like almost all other adjustments in lightroom on mobile). Honestly, also goes for vignetting and some other effects. I get the preset idea seems to believe "simpler" and faster and more 'mobile', but it isn't really, and only serves to make it more incompatible with the version of office that we all know.

    You haven't, not really. LrMobile is the most suitable for the rough on the same level that develop adjustments fast, not tweaking. Later, with global adjustments made, you can then spend your time on the desktop screen of color managed to fine adjustment.

  • How can I get basic EXIF data integrated with photos that I download on Flickr using Lightroom for mobile?

    When I upload pictures to Flickr using mobile LR it does not include EXIF data (i.e. ISO, shutter speed, Aperture, etc.). Is there a way to do this turn on?

    You can enable this in the Mobile Lr frame-> share with metadata. Hope that answers your question. -Guido
