• Move the external drive of Lightroom on new server

  I use Lightroom 6 (standalone - latest version) on an iMac. All Lightroom files are on an external drive attached in a hierarchy like this:

  Photos (folder)

  Lightroom Files (folder)

  LR-2 Previews.lrdata library (folder)

  Library of LR - 2.lrcat

  Photos of LR (folder)

  1999 (folder)

  2000 (folder)

  etc.

  etc.

  I would like to move this set of the player to a network attached server and continue to access it from the iMac. Can I move the player, point Lightroom for the .lrcat file and continue? Additional measures should be taken?

  The connected server network is a Mac Mini running Mac OS Server (last).

  Thanks for any help.

  Previews and catalog file should stay together, if you don't move the previews they will be re-created by LR in any case

• Move the folder of Photos on an external drive

  Hello my MacBook Air is near capacity. I'm going through iTunes and Photos on an external drive to free up disk space on the internal drive. I searched the threads and found the right solution for iTunes. I moved the entire iTunes folder to the external drive. Then, in the Advanced tab of iTunes preferences, I made the file to the new location on the external hard drive. That worked very well.

  Now, I'm ready to try the same process with my library of Photos (which also includes years of photos iPhoto migrated). Can I move the folder full of images (as I did with iTunes) or simply pictures library on external drive? My suspicion is the entire pictures folder, because it also contains the migrated iPhoto Pictures folders, Lightroom, Adobe and Photo Booth also. After searching for the discussions, it is not clear to me how to do it with pictures.

  Thank you

  Jon

  You can move either; Once completed, launch Photos with the key Option key, click library and choose the one on the external hard drive. ITunes library should be moved in the same way rather than change the setting in the preferences.

• How can I CREATE an iTunes library on the external drive of Thunderbolt

  I am creating an iTunes library for music & movies on an external hard drive LaCie d2 Thunderbolt 4 to. I copied all my movies on external hard drive, but cannot create a name of folder that iTunes will recognize that the library. I have a new mac mini OSx EL Capitan facility, there is NO file (movie or music) stored in the iTunes library on mac. I don't HAVE NO copy the old iTunes library since (OS crashed) & I want the external drive to the library. I tried several times to iTunes directly on the external drive, but it does not find the movies. (This is the file created: Volumes/LaCie/iTunes:iTunes Media), & this is the name of the folder on the LaCie external drive I am trying to get iTunes to serve library (iTunes/iTunes Media). I searched for hours to find info on this, but each article explains how to MOVE or COPY the old library (create a). I am over 50 years & not a computer guru, so please do not criticize my ignorance & please be more specific on the steps to go through as possible! Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

  Launch iTunes with down option, click on create a library and drag the movie files in the Finder in the application window open iTunes or automatically add to iTunes folder.

• 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.

• You want to move install Bootcamp or VM VMWare on the external drive and run it from there.

  I have two versions of Windows 7 on my iMac 24 "4 GB. One is a Bootcamp of Win 7 Professional installation.  One is a computer virtual from Windows 7 in VMWare Mac OSX. The two windows installs work well (the Bootcamp we're NOT accessible through VMWare right now).

  I want to do is get AN installation running on a partition on the external drive I connected. I have 3 partitions on a disk of T 1.  A 500 GB for Time Machine and 2 250 GB, Mac OSX and a Fat32.

  What I wish really is a straight Win BOOTABLE install on Fat 32 partitions, but will sag to move the VMWare installation to the outside OSX partition.

  Are there ways to do?  I thought Winclone, but as it is in oblivion I don't know about use.

  Any ideas?

  With the Virtual Machine shutdown, not suspended and VMware Fusion closed copy the target Virtual Machine hard disk external package and double-click it to launch the first time and it will fill an entry on the Virtual Machine library.

  The extent of the running Windows natively on a disk external Windows is not capable of it in itself although there may be some ways according to the type of external hard drive and various Boot Loader/managers that are out there.

• I would use the external drive to download my photos, documents, etc. but do not know how to proceed.

  I just got my old crash (desk top) computer. I knew it would, so I transferred all my information on an external hard drive. I bought a dell 2020 with windows 8, only bought a few days ago. I would use the external drive to download my photos, documents, etc. but do not know how to proceed.  My old computer won't start at all, that's why I got the external drive. Could someone please help me with this task. Thank you.

  Original title: confused

  You can simply plug it in, connect the external hard drive, make sure it is turned on.

  Then copy and paste on your files.

  In Windows 8, start File Explorer

  

  Highlight all the files and folders

  Click on copy on the Ribbon (Home tab)

  Then then paste into their respective folders

  Press Windows key + R

  Type: %UserProfile%

• New itunes install. All the songs are on an external hard drive. A lot of songs do not show up in itunes, but they are in the folder on the external drive.

  This seems to be a common problem:

  Recently I had to reinstall Win 10 & then itunes. All the songs are on an external HD iTunes does not show a large number of songs that are in the folder on the external drive. I copied the .itl to the new itunes folder. I also tried holding down - from itunes shift - select a library. Any ideas how to be able to see the songs in the itunes on the hard drive folder in the itunes library?

  Thanks in advance

  Steve

  See make a library of portable split. Have you copied the correct .itl file, or should you connect an external hard disk .itl file? If you can find the correct .itl, it should have all your songs and playlists. See the empty/corrupted after upgrade/crash iTunes library when the library has been altered for the first time with the new system. If you have to start creating your new library in an iTunes folder to the root of the external drive and move all the media inside... \iTunes\iTunes Media before adding to the library.

• Download Photos library to iCloud

  After converting my iPhoto photo library, the size of the photo library in the finder is 135 GB and the amount of pictures is a testament to the library is 26 673 when the "All Photos" album is selected. The quantities are close to those originally iPhoto library.

  I then started to load the new photo library on iCloud where, during the download process, the dialog box indicates that it is 'uploading 9306 points (xx.xx GB GB 104,46),"where xx.xx is the current amount downloaded so far.

  The difference in quantity and size of the photo is disturbing. Y at - it a reasonabe explanation?

  From what I saw other people post, the number changes often. See types of files that you can use in the linked article. Which may explain part of the difference.

• Files copy automatically to the external drive to the basket.

  Hello

  Q.1

  Whenever I'm copy/move files from my computer to a disc external hard or vice versa, I often had the message prompt "are you sure you want to copy this file without its properties?  The XYZ file has properties that cannot be copied to the new location.  YES/SKIP/CANCEL.

  Please advice why I got this message and what it means.

  Q.2

  Very that often, when I left and I deleted my external thumbdrive or a portable hard drive to my computer, I noticed that the trash on my desk was filled with a lot of files/folders that I have recognized that they were things of mine, but I did not understand how they appeared in the trash at the time when I did not remove my external hard drives before I left my computer.

  Then, when I plugged my external hard drives to check if these files/folders had been accidentally deleted quickly, I found that they were still there.

  This kind of incident occurred in Windows XP-based computers and Windows 7.

  Please indicate why/how this could happen.

  BTW, I couldn't find a correct classification for my two above questions in your Inbox "subject and Windows applications.  Therefore, I selected no matter how one.

  Thank you

• Starts the Powerbook g3 pismo of the external drive?

  Hello, all,.

  
  

  I want to start my Powerbook G3 (Pismo) running OS 9.2.2 since the restore in one disc external hard drive. (PB knows he has a drive hard internal , but the drive does not read discs in there.) The computer goes up the disc - its own restore disk - when it comes starts with Macintosh HD as a player start, but when I try to use the restore disc as commissioning, starts to drive to go up, but the door opens. Even if I hold the door closed, the computer starts low to halfway and glued in place: first, the question mark flashing, then commissioning with Macintosh HD but then freeze it.

  This happens even if I chose as the startup disk restore disk in the startup configuration panel. This means that I can't even begin to use disk utility to clean the hard drive of the computer. I did that with two other computers (reset several times), but those who had internal functioning disks. Is it possible that I can do this computer using the external drive as the boot? I read that the G3 Pismo that allows. I know I can get someone to take out the hard disk and smash, but I expect much prefer to destroy it myself. And I can understand how to remove the hard drive, but it seems to imply a boatload of maneuvers and some tools that I have, at the present time. I would not completely destroy the computer. It would be good for recyclers to be able to retrieve some parts, though they might be useful to someone.

  It is possible that I can't boot from the restore disc in the external drive, but maybe there's something that I have not yet tried. It seems crazy that the external hard drive with the restore disc appears on the desktop with a normal restart, and I can choose as boot drive but can't seem to complete commissioning. If anyone has any ideas on this subject, I would appreciate it a lot.

  Thank you.

  Jenny

  Are you trying to boot the PowerBook to an external optical drive that is connected to a USB port or your external drive connectivity FireWire?  If it is USB, that is the problem.  The reading of an optical drive connected by USB is one thing, but start since it is a different matter.  Unfortunately, your Pismo is not capable of this.

• Is it OK to disable services icloud, icloud photo library and icloud on PC startup disk? There will be negative consequences if I disable?

  Is it possible to disable services icloud, icloud photo library and icloud 10 PC Windows startup disk? There will be negative consequences if I disable these at startup?

  You can uninstall iCloud for Windows completely if you do not use one of its features. If you do, you should let its services run. See what is iCloud for Windows?-Apple Support for more info on what it does.
