• How to move Photo videos to an external hard drive?

  Short videos pile up in my PHOTO program and want to spend 129 of them in an external hard drive... the export function does not allow me to set the location for the export... which I find strange, after I selected all of the files to be transferred. Everyone has understood how to do this without resorting to individual transfers of each file?

  I'm on a laptop Mac Pro with El Captain running and Photo Version 1.3 (350.23.0). It should be simpler than that... not?

  Export requires two steps:

  • Select first quality, the regime, the regime of subfolder, and then click 'export' of file naming.
    
  • Now, you will see a file selector Panel to select the location on your external hard drive in the Finder.

  I use a PC and I used LR3. I'm a newcomer to LR, so patient with me! My problem is related to the import function.

  I have a photo library on an external hard drive. I've slowly been import previews of the photos selected from the library in my catalog, adding them during the import process - well. But now, I hit a problem. Another folder in my library contains several subfolders, each containing a number of photos (a mixture of RAW steals (naves) and jpg). I was importing found in my catalog each Subfile in turn, using the Add function, usually of the jpgs only from each Subfile. It works fine, until I reached a particular Subfile. For some reason when I try to import from it and select the secondary file as a Source, only the RAW (NEF) images appear in the preview pane (sorry, forgot the correct term for it!). I know that jpg files are in this auxiliary file on the external hard drive, because when I view its content in Windows, they are all there. But try as I can (choose the file under source, select the folder parent as a source, try to copy or move them, instead of adding them), nothing seems to work. Since they do not appear in the preview pane, I can't import them. It does appear that this a Subfile where the problem exists, but I don't see anything that is different from the others (names of files under all use the same structure - yyyy-mm-dd_custom name, and pictures in all subfolders are adopting the same denomination structure too - yyyy-mm-dd_sequential number_custom name.) NAVE/JPG. So what I am doing wrong? Any ideas please.

  It is possible that the images in this particular subfolder were taken in your camera in RAW + JPEG.  If so, you will need to go to preferences under the general tab and make sure the box "processing JPEG files files next to raw as separate photos" is checked.

  

  However, assuming that this is the case, there is really no reason to import the JPEG file if you already have the RAW file.

• Use LR5. Because of volume and the size of the photos, I use an external hard drive. When opening LR5 it references only the local hard disk. How can I change the refernce to read the external drive. Thank you

  Use LR5, due to volume and the size of the photos, I use an external hard drive. LR refers only the Local Drive C not outside. Where do I change this by LR read the external drive. Grateful for the help.

  Thank you

  LR is not a file Explorer. He knows only the disks that you imported photos of.

  If you have previously imported these photos, then later moved into the external hard drive, go to the library files and "update location" Panel on the files that you moved.

  If you have never imported these images on the external hard drive, perform an import by using the option 'Add' (not ' copy') to keep the images on the external hard drive during import.

  Recovery of DNG issue: I have photos stored on an external hard drive which have previously been imported into Lightroom and converted to DNG.  The laptop on which I was running Lightroom died and I had to replace the hard drive and rebuild the computer.  In the process of my Lightroom program and catalog related to these images have been lost.  When I re-associate these photos with my new installation of Lightroom and a new catalogue is there a way to retrieve the keywords or other changes or metadata catalogue Mountaga?  Is any of this information embedded with the imge DNG file or was it only in the cataloght lost on my failing hard drive? I re-import just as if it were new images with no prior treatment of Lightroom?

  By default, LR saves all changes in the catalog, and that applies to any type of file.

  Optionally, you can save changes to the file as well, for raw files owners, this will create a xmp file - for DNG that changes are going to be cooked in the file, without additional xmp file.

  But it does not default. Go to the catalog and parameters under the control of metadata automatically save changes to XMP.

  Unless you do this, the changes are saved only in the catalog.

  Hope this makes things clearer.

• move el capitan photo library app on external hard drive

  Question:

  How to move to El Capitan new library of the 'Photo' app on an external drive?

  The picture of El Capitan App behaves like a virus - it takes my computer whenever I plug a phone, etc.

  There seems to be no preference to choose which application opens to plug in a device, and iPhoto failed to do not open.

  (And selecting the cloud for storage is similar to trust someone else to keep forever, hundreds of concerts my confidential and important data.) "If they were to lose my credit card information, that would be correct.)

  I will not "auto-save" my photos on my drive internally, and will not allow 'Photo' me to select one different folder other than the one they chose for me on my internal drive. Whenever I select a folder from the external hard drive in the preferences, it is default to the original destination in the internal drive.

  Most discussions on the application of 'Photo' of Apple are extremely difficult to find because the results of a search of the generic name of there new beacon 'Photo' app display the results of all things by the word 'photo' in them. Go to Apple support with the name of their application as the search keyword: "photo".

  It seems that the fellows who designed Windows 8 have been able to find a job at Apple. I think it may be easier to move a photo library of Windows 8 at the library 'Photos' El Capitan that moving the iPhotos library.

  I don't remember thinking iPhoto needed to be redesigned. Simply not take 20 minutes for the Interior to appear cryptic images. And maybe be able to import large files of k 4, without crashing on every attempt.

  PLEASE SEE THE APP "FUNBOX" BEFORE THE NEXT UPDATE OF 'PHOTO '!

  in this soft - 128 GB iPhone photos appear in less than a minute, and you have the ability to save large images videos 4 k, voice memos, etc. simply by dragging them to the location desired. The good old MAC intuitive way that attracted us to Apple in the first place.

  Perhaps Apple simply tries to leave the free App company.

  RULE NO. 1:

  Applications need to be improved - not made obsolete!

  One Solution: rename the new 'photo' application in iPhoto. (I'm a genius!)

  How to move to El Capitan new library of the 'Photo' app on an external drive?

  Select it in the image folder and drag the EHD.  Once there open to confirm a successful move and then remove the pictures folder.

  There seems to be no preference to choose which application opens to plug in a device, and iPhoto failed to do not open.

  With the trendy iPhone go to Photos and uncheck this box:

  

  Do this for each device you have.  If you have memory cards and reformat them, you will have to repeat every time.

  To kill the opening of Photos for all devices use the method posted by JadedEye:

  Re: Prevent DEFINITELY pictures of automatic opening

  in response to leonie

  OK, it worked for me on El Cap

  Open a terminal window

  Type the following in the terminal and press enter

  defaults write currentHost - com.apple.ImageCapture disableHotPlug - bool YES

  (followed by the return key or enter - ed)

  The exit of the terminal.

  Photos will run if you run, but it will not autolaunch on each connection to a camera or the card or reformatted the card.

  If you want to return Photos auto-launch almost everything, use the same command change YES no

  This correction has set my workflow back to normal without Photos lance all the time.

  I will not "auto-save" my photos on my drive internally, and will not allow 'Photo' me to select one different folder other than the one they chose for me on my internal drive. Whenever I select a folder from the external hard drive in the preferences, it is defaulted to the original destination in the internal drive

  I don't know what you mean by that last statement.  Are you referring to export photos from your library to the EHD? Or are you referring to place your library on the EHD and its use here? The export window to select any location you want to save to.  By default, it opens to the desktop on the startup disk. But you can select any volume which is mounted by clicking it in the sidebar of the export window:

• Is there a way to make my photo app on my external hard drive "photo of system library"?

  I want to be able to keep my library of photos on my external hard drive, as I have with iPhoto.  I want to save space on my Mac

  No problem

  The drive must be in Mac OS extended (journaled) format, connected by a fast wired connection, do not be used as a Time Machine backup and volume still available before launch - quit Photos during Photos and make slide library of Photos for the EHD and double-click it to launch Photos - complete library test and then delete one on the internal disk (test one more time before emptying the trash)

• HP all in one 23-p114: transfer photos from IPhone to external hard drive

  How to transfer my photos from my IPhone on an external hard drive using Windows 8?  I have synced my photos to ITunes as this is a new computer.

  Hi liljoe,

  While HP does not support Apple products, there are tons of tutorials online on how to import photos from an iPhone to Windows.

  There is nothing special, that you should have to do to connect the two together.

  Look at this wiki on how to connect... 4 ways to transfer Photos from an iPhone to a computer - wikiHow

  How the 4th on this wiki, where you choose to "import unlimited", you would navigate to your external hard drive (that you also connected via the USB port ) is the place where to download to.

  Just like you would copy and paste files anywhere in Windows.

  Is that what you wanted to know?

• Trying to move a large file on external hard drive

  I have a 119gig .bkf file on my desktop and I am trying to move to a new disk 320gig external hard. I get a message that there is not enough space on the disk. If I reformat the external hard drive from FAT to NTFS it work or do I start the backup utility and save it to the external hard drive? On my desk .bkf file took almost 8 hours to create. Don't want to do it again if I don't have to. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks for your time!

  You guessed correctly the problem. FAT32 is a 4 GB file size limitation. You need to format the drive NTFS. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• How backup complete photos and catalog on external hard drive?

  I want to backup my entire LR library on an external drive for security. I want the backup to include photos as well as all the metadata of. I can't do it, and I can't find a similar question and answer on the forum. I am able to 'Export' pictures on my external hard drive, but the metadata file that gets exported is unreadable.

  Please advise me how to do this simple and necessary procedure. Thanks in advance.

  Two steps to be completed-

  1. When you close the Lightroom program you should let make a backup of the CATALOG . OFTEN!

  This is defined in the catalog preferences [Ctrl + Alt +] [Ctrl/Cmd + Alt + comma]

  

  The catalog stores everything you do in the Lightroom program! including metadata.

  AND save backups of the catalog to another physical disk (NOT in the same folder as the Lightroom program!)

  2. your original images must be 'Backed-up' or copied to a second location on a different physical drive your chosen method (and not by Lightroom)

  Mac users can use {Time Machine}, PC users can use {SyncBack, Free File Sync, etc.)

  * It is usually not necessary to 'Export' all images unless you have a specific purpose - for example to post on Facebook, Pinterest, web page, printer, etc..

  There is no object in the export of images from archive on your computer, if Lightroom has a catalogue of work!

  

• Loss of change data and the markup for the photos moved originals on external hard drive. How can I get that back?

  I transferred the originals to an external hard drive to free up space on my hard drive.  After doing this, all that I had done some missing photos, as well as all the indicators I used.

  Is it possible to get this back?

  Hi Samuel,

  You have an exclamation point on the images in Lightroom?

  If so please click on the following link: the help of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom | Locate missing photos

  Have you moved the images in Lightroom or out of Lightroom?

  Are you sure you're in the right catalog?

• Photos of deleted the external hard drive after updating Lightroom

  I just installed the new update.  Wish I had read some of the forums before hand.     Of the photos on external hard drive and I wanted to add them to the catalog.  After that I added to an existing catalog, I don't see pictures on the external hard drive.     If I click on the folder on the external drive, there is nothing in the folder.     If I unplug the external drive, I see the question mark by the photos.

  In addition, if I take the external hard drive and plug it into my laptop (Macbook Pro), Lightroom detects photos and does not watch the point mark.  However, I can not see the pictures on the external hard drive.

  Where can I watch, or how to find them.   This seems very odd.

  Thanks for any help.

  Thanks for the reply Akash.

  I did as you asked.

  When to disconnect the drive and click on ""?, "it shows the external drive as the previous location."

  Where to plug the hard drive and search using the finder, that nothing is found.

  When I connect the drive, Lightroom see files and works normally.

  Lightroom sees the files if the external hard drive is connected which leads me to believe that they are still on the drive.    However, they are able to access by Lightroom.  I see nothing in the files on the external hard drive.

  This really baffled me.

  Kind regards
