  • Reissue of active links between desktop and laptop

    Hello

    Is it possible to not have to re-edit the active link every time I spend between my desktop and my laptop when you work with the Muse? I have all my files in the cloud to Adobe, and every time I save and sync to my desktop, then open the files in Web site while traveling on my laptop, I have to spend a bit of time going back through and restoring links everything that I had done on my desktop. Files are taken from the same spot and registered to the same place (the cloud), so I don't know why I have to go back through and connect it all that I had just created when switching between desktop and laptop.

    Thanks for any help/input on this, I really appreciate it.

    Hi Davz,

    You will be able to use and edit your Muse file, even if you don't re - not link assets.

    It's just that you won't be able to change these assets, so you can redo the link assets whenever you need to make changes to the active files.

    Every time you switch machines, please save the latest version of your Muse file on a local disk and then use it. Using a .muse file saved on a cloud, or removable hard drive can cause problems.

    Also, I suggest you save a copy of all the files of components in a single folder (a local location, not the cloud or the removable hard drive); so, when Muse invite you to re - link assets, you can add a link to one of these files, and Muse will look in that folder for all your other missing links.

  • Active and re-Binder between desktop and portable

    I use my desktop pc as my main location for Muse, but when I travel I use a laptop. My files are stored in the cloud creative (and saved elsewhere). Whenever I'm away and using my laptop, Muse wants me to re-edit all the assets, because it says they are missing (sometimes in large numbers, 100 +). Why should I connect when files are accessed from the same place? Also, should I really be reprinted when the goods are not change or be replaced? I'm simply add on the Web site, not to change the locations of the files.

    We have to connect these 'missing' active to perform updates on my Muse site and publish? I don't want to learn the hard way and have my site completely messed up, if I decide not to spend a lot of time re connecting active hundreds.

    Thanks for any help or understand why this happens.

    p.s. I tried to use a portable hard drive and use between the two machines, however, it does the same thing.

    Thank you!

    Why always re-release of links? Muse stores the images in web size optimized within the .muse file. You have not need be reprinted, if you have not changed the original file. Similarly, if you your ftp site, and the original files are missing, restoring links is not necessary.

  • Confused by UAC - worry about difference between desktop and laptop needs fixing.

    My computer laptop and desktop are installed with Windows 7 Ultimate x 64, both with all Windows updates current (apart from things like Bing Office).   The only difference I know, is that the laptop has been installed since a disc with SP1 integrated installation, while the Office was set up at the level of basic and SP1 installed later.

    Both have UAC turned (apparently) the same level (up to 3/4), and secpol.msc shows the same UAC settings.

    If I run Photoshop 9 (CS2) on the laptop, press F1 for help, I get a UAC elevation prompt before it displays help on the desktop it just goes straight to the help.

    If I double click on a MSP file in the laptop it has a (quite rightly) UAC elevation prompt before allowing the update to be applied.  On the desktop it just installed the update.

    UAC works on the desktop to a certain extent, as for example if I try to run a command as Administrator window, I get a prompt for elevation.

    This is worrying because it seems that in some way UAC has been partially disabled on the desktop from the laptop, and as much as I know I did not do anything to cause this happens.

    Details on what is happening and help solve this will be greatly appreciated.

    Many thanks in advance, Dave

    Well now that's interesting, after having reactivated the Protection System (System Restore) and change the UAC level up to maximum and back down again on 3/4, it now seems to work as expected.

    I'm still a bit confused, but at least I'm getting now guests of elevation when I wait for them.

    See you soon

  • Share a catalog between desktop and portable

    Both my machines run on Windows 7 pro and I recently installed Lightroom 3.3. To the help of my office, I imported all the photos in a catalog (catalog of Lightroom 3) on an external hard drive (with e-SATA connection). When I plug the external hard drive to my laptop and try to open the catalog of Lightroom 3, I get an error message: "Lightroom 3 can not use the catalog named"Lightroom 3"because it is not writable and cannot be opened. This can be caused by incorrect permissions or Lightroom because another application is using the catalg'

    So, I created a second new catalog (Lightroom 3 catalog 2) on the external hard drive, using the laptop and imported the same pictures. The laptop can open and edit this second catalogue, but the office gives the same error message as described above.

    By using these two same machines, with Lightroom 2.7 and a more primitive external hard drive, I used to be able to share a single catalog. Is - it is no longer possible with Lightroom 3.3, or I do something wrong? Or the problem nutrient with the external hard drive? Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you!

    This would be a feature of windows... probably under properties for the drive or folders?  First try the drive...

  • U2415, around the gap between the Windows desktop and the edge of the monitor (bezel)

    Hello

    I have a Dell Ultrasharp U2415. I've read all the FAQS and I know I have to perform the SUBMISSION, but before doing so, I just want to know if it is normal to have a gap between the Windows desktop and the edge of the screen. If the Windows desktop is not covering or fill the entire screen. There all around the smaller than a 1/4 "gap between the edge of the windows desktop on the edge of the bezel of the monitor, and this model has almost no bezel. The graphics settings in Windows 10 are set to use the native resolution of 1920 x 1200 monitor. I tried with different computers (all windows 10), and the drivers are up to date. The monitor is connected via HDMI since I don't have portable computers not with DP interfaces. Laptop computers have Intel and ATI video cards. I have check the put option to scale on the video card software and it is set to 100%. So, is this gap normal? Is the edge Office Windows 10 supposed to touch the physical edge of monitors?  If the gap is not normal, I will perform the integrated test.

    TIA!

    Based on the YouTube comments, which seems to be normal. "But you must run the APPLICATION to see if the"smaller than 1/4"gap" appears. If Yes, then we can say that it is normal. If this is not the case, then some settings of the operating system is the culprit.

  • Synchronize photos between desktop PC, Tablet and mobile devices

    Hi, I can't understand how works mobile sync, hope that someone would want to guide me.

    My goal is to have a subset of my photos are synchronized between desktop PC (MAC OS x running full LR CC), smartphone (mobile LR) and my Tablet (10 Windows running full LR CC).

    I managed to set up a Collection on my desktop PC that synchronizes with Mobile - for example, this collection is where I have some photos that relate to share between my devices. For example my smart phone can see these photos and I can also add photos to the collection of my smart phone that appears on the desktop.

    However, when you run the LR tablet, I can't get the same link. For example when I activate sync he wants to delete my existing association of the lightroom file and delete all the photos in the cloud. Mobile synchronization does not work between complete lightroom different instances or am I doing wrong?

    And if not possible, is there as another way of synchronization necessary here I can ask that only a subset of my photos (my Tablet cannot hold my complete database of photos)? I looked at the area of the creative cloud but it seems to be the manual copy area and I don't break my photos out (or duplicate physically) in different physical locations on the hard drive of my desktop PC? 

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi K0LDING,

    The synchronization between a main catalog and several mobile versions.

    This could be a problem if you have the full Lighroom program installed on your Tablet and you try to synchronize an another catalog outside of your PC and according to the message, which allows to synchronize would remove the previous synchronized data.

    You can install Lightroom Mobile on your Tablet and synchronization through that.

    Kind regards
