Move the library and the files to which they refer
Hello
My apologies if this has been answered before, I watch but can't find anything.
I have Lightroom 2.4 on a G5 Mac(ppc, 10.4) running a Lacie 1 TB external drive using high-speed fire wire
My photos are on this drive. The catalog that references the images on the external drive is the main internal disk.
After having updated my secondary internal drive I want to move both the file system containing photos on the internal disk and the catalog on the same drive. (and then configure the external hard drive as the backup that seems easy to do.
So, how can I move all the files referenced from one disk to the other?
Thank you
Chris
PS Sorry if this is blinding for the rest of you. I'll buy myself a few books on lightroom and hope thye respond the rest of my questions.

Move your files intact, i.e. maintain exactly the same file structure that they are on the external FW drive to the new internal. Then drag your .lrcat to the new drive. Double click on it. LR will open this catalog, but have no idea where are the images. Choose top most folder and control-click it and then navigate to the new location.
I left behind the file Previews, because sometimes an advantage to generate a new, but if you don't want to spend this time, simply copy on. Too much. It is at the same level as the .lrcat.

I use XP Pro SP 3 and I'm having a problem with moving the files from one folder to another, no matter where the folder or files. If I try to move a file, it crashes and it cannot be opened or used. If I move a folder, then crashes all the contents of the folder, and I can't even open the folder, it tells me access is denied, this nothing else. If I try to delete the file, then I get a prompt to error telling me that the file or folder is not accessible, and that access is denied and "make sure that the disk is not full or write protected." If I try to move the files corrupt in another folder, this time I get the message "Unable to move or replace" the file in question and "make sure that the disk is not full or write protected." If it is a document as a text file, then I can open the file and there is a prompt indicating that access is denied. I can then use the text document and save something, but if I close the document and then try to reopen it, all the changes are lost.
It is not this problem if I move the files to an external device or disk drive.
I am running as an administrator.
Right now, if I need to move a file, I copy it to its destination, which is possible and then delete the original file. With the help of a release program was the only way I could delete these files, which could no longer be used.Hello Closrapexa, welcome.
1. do you have this problem started recently?I recommend trying the system restore to bring the system back to a State before the problem started. Try this:1. click on START2. click on "all programs".3. click on "Accessories".4. click on "system tools."5. click on "system restore."6 follow the prompts shown to restore your system to a date before the problem started. Although the system restore does not target the personal data, it is recommended that you back up all data such as music, photos and documents in case something is not bad.Let us know what happensThank you!Ryan Thieman

Make a bunch of audio files, placed in a folder on my desktop. Files initially sent to RealPlayer to burn, but when finished burning CD and went to read a CD, folder got seized by Media Player, 'Indexed' and disappeared from the office. I'm a relatively new computer user, and I need to learn more about file paths, how to view the path FULL of a file on my computer and how to type (create) full path when I need to. The "Indexing" feature seems to erase this lesson for me, and after having spent four hours trying to find Vista instructions on "How to move the file from one place to another", I gave up! Windows 'Help and Support' on my computer gives wrong directions. It states that if I right click on a folder > properties, a dialog box opens with a tab by which I can move my account. There is no tab location here. I found locations tab when right click on the "Mobile" folder, but still no option to "move file". No idea what is the folder "Roaming" or why it's on my computer. I want my audio files in the My Music folder, but this place is "access denied." Don't know how to get the audio file it in any case, but if anyone has any advice, I would be very happy! Thank you. PS - I had no problem moving folders in XP. I don't like the idea that a computer is to decide where to put my files. I want to control where I put my files. I don't like the way search works under Vista. I liked the XP search companion better because, for a computer fool like me, it was really easy to organize and find files and folders and had an option specific to find audio and video file TYPES.
Here is an article on how to move your personal folders in Vista: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/moving-your-personal-data-folders-in-windows-vista-the-easy-way/. If you're talking about the special folders (such as photos, Documents, office...), then here is an article on how to move: http://www.winhelponline.com/articles/95/1/How-to-move-the-special-folders-in-Windows-Vista.html.
If you have trouble with the search after you move the files, then rebuild the index: http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/2103/vista_rebuilding_the_search_index/. Here is an article on how to use Indexing Options in Vista that may be useful for you: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/69581-indexing-options.html.
If the above does not help, your problem seems to relate to the image of the files/folders and their interactions with Media Center (which operate on different other folders). Please repost your question in images and video Forum at: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistapictures/threads where the people who specialize in issues of the image will be more than happy to help you with your quesitons.

Right. So I downloaded and I logged into Adobe Creative cloud and I tried to download Photoshop CC (several times). But when it gets to 90%, I get the error in the title ("the Installation failed, cannot move the file. Rename the file, and then try again")
I tried using error messages in the logs for troubleshooting, but I found nothing. Here are the 2 error messages I receive.
'Key3List build failure'.
and
""ACCC: could not find the LEIDs/LEID tags in the request data".
I use Windows 10 x 64-bit PC
If someone knows the problem, I found a solution and probable cause.
I have Kaspersky Protection. Disable it while you download. This probably applies to more than a bag of protection.
Thank you

Move the file in the folder of the same name in AppleScript
I had a problem with the script below. Basically, on the execution of the script, I want to create folders based on the name of the file and move the files in the files of autocorrelation. However, at the minute, that I'll have to choose the folder in which the script should run.
Folder to choose a folder
say application 'Finder '.
located fileList to the name of every file in Folder with name extension is "m4v".
end say
the value point text delimiters to ".".
Repeat with dittos in list of files
get each text element of dittos
masterFile defined in the point 1 of the result
say application 'Finder '.
create a new folder to Folder with properties {name: masterFile}
move (each file from the folder Folder whose name contains masterFile) will cause
end say
end Repeat
Ideally, I would like it to run automatically, but the folder is on an external hard drive. (\Volumes\Lacie\Movies). and I had problems to use the POSIX and 'alias' to properly re-create the path of the file desired.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Hello
You can try something like the AppleScript script which is a simple shell script wrapper.
set d to (choose folder)'s POSIX path do shell script "/bin/bash -s <<'EOF' - " & d's quoted form & " 2>&1 cd \"$1\" || exit shopt -s nullglob for f in *.m4v do m=${f%.*} [[ -d $m ]] || mkdir -p \"$m\" || continue mq=$(sed 's/[^[:alnum:]]/\\\\&/g' <<< \"$m\") # quote meta characters for regex find -E . -depth 1 -type f -iregex '.*/'\"$mq\"'.[[:alnum:]]+$' -print0 | xargs -0 -J% mv % \"$m\" done EOF"
For example, given that you choose/path/to/directory in the folder - source
Input state:
/path/to/directory/abc.m4v /path/to/directory/abc.txt /path/to/directory/abcd.m4v /path/to/directory/abcd.txt
Status of the output:
/path/to/directory/abc/abc.m4v /path/to/directory/abc/abc.txt /path/to/directory/abcd/abcd.m4v /path/to/directory/abcd/abcd.txt
Briefly tested under OS X 10.6.8 but no guarantee of any kind. Please make sure that you have a full backup of the original files and directories before you run this kind of script.
Good luck

In Bridge, you would use moveTo();

Administrator permissions
I am logged in as administrator. When I try to move the files from drive c to e drive, I get the message that I currently don't have permission
to access this file.As an administrator, I though I had permission. How can I fix it?
I've only logged on as administrator.
Even logged on as administrator, you have not all privileges unless you raise them. This is done to prevent malware to take control of your computer when logged in as an administrator.

Move the files, folders, and applications when you use several desktop computers
I have configured my MacBook Pro to display several different offices, based on several types of work that I do. I'm having two problems: (1) get the apps in the dock to show only in the dock on specific and (2) workstations, get the files and folders to broadcast only on one specific office.
Re: (1), I followed the instructions from Apple I found online, but all applications in the dock show in the dock on each other in all cases.
Re: (2), I don't see a menu or option to specify desktop computers. They're showing on all my workstations, which isn't what I want.
Thank you in advance for your help!
The Dock is the same, no matter what you are in office. It cannot be configured to display only the items to come on a computer desktop and other articles on others. It is similarly of the icons. An icon that you put on a desktop will appear in all work positions.
Now you pouvez specify certain applications appear in specific jobs and this applies to the Finder as well so you can have icons of documents and folders appear on a single desktop computer. Other workstations will all show no icons. If you choose this option, you can then open a window to a folder on the desktop that has the Finder, and then move it to another office.
Before Apple, desktops implemented, there are several utilities which enabled us to operate more as you want, but unfortunately, they are now gone.

Old laptop had Thunderbird. The laptop no longer works, so I took the drive C (SATA drive) and and which plugged into a USB port.
New laptop has installed Thunderbird local folders have been restored. The contents of the Inbox is missing (I use the option ' download server ", so the recent correspondence is here.)
I have three POP3 accounts, so I will try to identify the location of three separate "inbox" and "Sent" folders and add them to the new facility.
Where the files are stored, and what would be the easy way to get back them on the new laptop?
It would be great if there is a more fluid way for disaster recovery.
You could have copied the whole profile and do with it.
To create backups, you should also back up the entire profile.
