Mobile photos of LR3 on a LR CC PC on a mac

I backed up my Lightroom 3 catalog on an external hard drive passport.  Sometimes, I need to work on the pictures of this catalogue on my new Macbook Pro on LR CC.  If I try to access photos on the Passport, they show already imported (not true).  In addition, even if I could, the changes I had made on the PC would be lost.  How can I access photos of the catalog of PC on mac?  I would like to be able to avoid importing all photos on the hard drive to the MAC, but I will if I have to.  I guess that the problem lies in the MAC vs PC formatting but I don't know how to get around that.  Thank you!

I would like to be able to avoid importing all photos on the hard drive to the MAC, but I will if I have to.

I would add that import photos would be completely wrong in this case and would make your life miserable. Do not import!

The best solution (in my opinion) is to install Lightroom CC on both computers and then spend (not import) the LR3 catalogue a catalogue LR CC. To do this, you open Lightroom CC and then use the file menu command-> open the catalog and point to your Lightroom 3 catalog.

Now... pop quiz... you must import photos or not?

  • Save photos in LR3 for email

    I have a problem with Lightroom 3 by sending some family photos. I took photos in RAW and JPG.  I initially processed photos in LR3.  Later I went back and made a few addiitonal editing work with the adjustment tools.  I tried to send the files to send an e-mail and send a mail to test with three photos.  Whenever I do this, I get the old version of my photos without any changes.  I even tried to rename the photos in my library and send the renamed files.  However, I keep getting the r version of reception without the latest changes in my test email.

    Of course what I see on my screen only has not been saved correctly.  What can I do to save the latest version?  I thought that this was done automatically.

    You can't 'save' an image with just the Lightroom adjustments.  The images that you set in Lightroom have not changed directly.  All of these adjustments are stored in the catalog, and they are applied to images that are exported from Lightroom.  You seem to understand this concept.  So if what you describe is really the case, something must be wrong.  You have indicated that you tried to send those files in e-mail.  Were the files you sent to email the files you had exported from Lightroom?  If it were, these files must have contained all the changes you have made.  If you try to e-mail JPEG images that came from your camera, that will not work.  Although the changes appear in Lightroom, they are not part of the image.  You must export copies.  I apologize if this is redundant and something that you already understand fully.

  • How to import into LR mobile photos on my iPad for a SD card?

  • Synchronization Mobile - Photo Lightroom / location

    I'm going on a trip and I intend using Lightroom Mobile for the first time, syncing my iPhone, iPad and iMac with a single Collection called Hawaii vacation. I turned on Auto Import for this collection. I intend to take only my iPad and iPhone with me for the trip.

    I take pictures with my Canon and the iPhone. I'll add pictures of Canon in this collection by downloading pictures from my Sandisk card in my iPad, then adding to the collection.  I will then add iPhone photos by adding it to my camera roll since I sync iCloud for my photos.

    When I get home, I turn on my iMac and I see the synchronization of photos to my iMac in the Hawaii vacation collection.  So, where are my pictures?  If they are still on my iPad, I don't want to pass these photos from my iPad one space limited to my iMac which has tons of space, more I have enclosed storage for backup.  I have just create another folder via LR on my iMac and move the photos from the collection to this new folder?  Or, what I need to sync my iPad Photostream in LR and move it from there?  As you can see, I'm a little confused as to what I should do as soon as I go home and get the photos on their provisional to final location.

    I appreciate any help anyone might have.  Sorry to be too verbose.

    Gail

    I recommend you to try it for yourself before go you on your travels.

    That said, when you get home you recently taken photos appear in a folder on your Mac - in my case in a folder called John iPad. I think it's better assimilated to a temporary location, so in LrDesktop I drag pictures in my files for permanent storage. At that time I delete them manually from the film.

    It's the big picture, but then I think you need to distinguish between different categories of photos:

    • iPad-shooting - LrMobile synchronizes the originals recently taken at cloud of Adobe, while keeping the intelligent previews on the device. So no cleaning necessary.
    • iPhone-shooting. I think it would be better to get LrM on iPhone too and add new photos of the film. Outside the practice, this means iPhone-taking originals back to the cloud to Adobe and then down to your Mac. I don't know (my phone is not smart) what would happen if you used the iCloud synchronization to get pictures of the iPhone down to your iPad, and then up to LrM. My fear is that iCloud synchronize lower res copies down to the iPad, while the original iPhone-taking would be so elsewhere on Apple iCloud/Photostream or what they now call it.
    • Canon-making originals. Remember that LRM will be able to import JPEG files, so maybe shoot Raw + JPEG? But once you get in LrM JPEG files via the film, these original JPEG syncs to the cloud to Adobe, then to down to your Mac.

    But test before leaving on your trip. Your questions are on the right track, and no long-term answer can be as good as see what is happening with your own eyes.

  • How can I find my missing photos in LR3 MAC?

    Imported files MAC LR3 and worked very well this day there, but now the photos are either totally absent or the file is 'offline or missing.  Help!

    You wrote: "I still can't find the missing files.»

    Do you mean you can't find in Lr - or you cannot find them in the Mac Finder?

    If you cannot find in the Mac Finder while they are not on your computer.

    If you find in the Mac Finder then it's just a matter of pointing Lr to the right folder.

    Get there by selecting "Find lack folder and navigate to the location where you found the file in the Mac Finder."

    Mark,

    The problem is that you have set "By Date" in the field "organization." You need to put in "in a folder.

  • Library of mobile Photos with iCloud library enabled

    TL; DR: Library of Photos while using iCloud does not merge, but adds the entire library to iCloud, once again, in my case upgrade my plan of storage while plenty of space for this merger

    All,

    I have been using iCloud photo library for a long time now to synchronize photos between devices, and.

    I'm running out of space in the drive of my Mac, and I wanted to move the library to the SD card, so I followed the steps to copy the folder and then selecting the alt-click on the Photos icon library.

    It works, all (or most) of the exhibition of photos very well.

    When I go into Preferences > iCloud he says "iCloud for Photos features are available in the library of the system", so I go to Preferences > general and click 'Use as library system' which I think is the correct step since I don't want to spend the entire hard drive and SD card is always connected (it's a Transcend JetDrive Lite 330 enough to store things I don't usually work) (such as photos, music, files ISO and VMs). ICloud options are available click on, so I check 'iCloud photo library' and then it starts to redownload my entire library

    Since the library is the same, I wasn't expecting to download and let me upgrade my iCloud-storage plan. I did, for fear of deleting something, but I have always received a lot of space in my 50 GB plan that I can see in system preferences > iCloud (using the ~ 37 GB).

    This is the expected behavior and what I need to download again, all my photos? They're all here already!

    Are there additional steps to follow when moving the library AND iCloud is activated? I sure miss what is obvious, but I followed all the steps described in official documents and other internet resources, nothing helps, that is: no way to avoid the double space in iCloud so spend my iCloud storage plan.

    Thank you!

    Since the library is the same, I wasn't expecting to download and let me upgrade my iCloud-storage plan. I did, for fear of deleting something, but I have always received a lot of space in my 50 GB plan that I can see in system preferences > iCloud (using the ~ 37 GB).

    This is the expected behavior and what I need to download again, all my photos? They're all here already!

    Yes.

    Photos will download the library once again, because it cannot be sure that the library has moved is completely identical.  It is downloaded again and check for duplicates. Once the download is complete, you use more storage than before iCloud, but it will take a lot of time.

    But it shouldn't be necessary to upgrade the storage plan. You should be able to demote him again as soon as the download is complete.

    What I do, when I want to move the library to a new location is to create a new empty library on the new drive and then turn on the library empty as the iCloud photo library. The library will be downloaded icloud in the empty library instead of download. It's faster and avoid the prompt to upgrade storage iCloud. But the drawback is that I need to name all the faces again, given that the faces does not synchronize to iCloud. And the projects will be missing.  I'm keeping a copy of the original library in the new location, so I can use old projects and can find faces in the event of doubt about a name.
