Move the masters (35K) to the Ext HD & kept bound?

I don't think when you start to use LR.

I really need to consolidate and meet up with logic.

Here's how I set up now.

Catalog has a total of 88K pictures

Internal HDs

HD 1: OS & apps, incl. LR & LR cat and various tools, file previews

HD 2: OS & apps as over backup etc.

HD 3: treaties and exported image files not LR related

HD 4: master image, LR bound (35K images) files

External HDs:

3 HDs with masters bound LR and

some images transformed & not exported LR related

That's what I try to do

I would end with my internal HDs holding:

Disc 1: my OS and applications

Disc 2: my OS and applications bootable upward

Disc 3: LR cat and found

Disc 4: Previews and cat LR back up

Post HD 1: Masters bound

Ext HD 2: Masters bound upward

Ext HD 3: processed & not exported LR bound

Ext HD 4: processed & exported backup

I would like to move the HD 4 with masters to files

a larger HD Ext and remain linked to the LR.

I have several folders then browse and re-linking these individually

After moving would be very very slow. (35K images)

Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

I'm clearly nervous about so many images in movement and lose the changes made

Thank you

Running on Mac Pro / 3 ghz/6 GB of ram / OS 10.5.7 / LR 2.4

A large number of images, I tend to move them using OS tools rather than Lightroom as it far too slow. Move them as single block with the structure of folders intact etc then launch Lightroom, do a right-click on the top-level folder for the file structure, you have moved and choose the location of the folder to update... The steps after that should be pretty obvious.

If you scroll down to the last section of the next lesson, you will see the menu I mentioned above.

  • IX4 - 300 d - cannot copy files between actions or the ext disk. USB

    Hi forum!

    I can't work for the life of me how to move files between the shares on the NAS. I can access my computer fine actions. I have a USB HARD drive connected to the front USB port and I want to copy some files from the HARD drive to a shared folder on the NAS, but when I'm in the content browser that I have no option to copy, and there is no functionality of drag - move. That I going nuts or something blatantly obvious lack?

    I want to copy data from USB directly as it is a few TB of data and copying on the LAN will take ages. It's going to be a regular thing, but I can't really put in place a copy job, because it is not the same type of data or file locations every time.

    Help, please!

    Thank you!

    Hello MattDobson,

    You will need to map the actions:
    https://www.Google.com/webhp?SourceID=chrome-instant&ion=1&ESPV=2&IE=UTF-8#q=how+to+map+a+network+sh...

    And move the data in this way, the Ext HDD will appear as its own share, but can be mapped as others.

    The content in the UI Viewer is not designed to move data.

  • To move the library continues to be the library system hard disk

    Hello everyone,

    I would like someone to help me with this question. I've migrated the pictures opening. My library as subject of 70,000 photos.

    Everything went well. I imported the photos keeping referenced masters to na DHM (external hard drive). But, as I wanted to access all my library in the devices of ohters (Iphone and Ipad) that I bought the 1 TB Icloud.

    I noticed that I had 2 thousand pictures consolidated and referenced 68,000.  Then only 2,000 photos are ok to download.

    And there is the first question. It takes too long to download and photos do not appear on devices! Is this normal?

    Here's what I thought:

    I move my library to an another DHM (os Journeling) and consolidate all the photos. Then I will download them all to the ICLOUD. And this way, I'll have all the pictures in all devices.

    But my concern is the following.

    I tried this.

    I copied the actual library to na DHM and deleted in the MBP and open PICTURES. I expected that PHOTOS recognized the library the library even only in a different location. BUT ISN'T. Photos 'think of it as a new library and not the photo of system library.

    Is it possible to move the library and continuing to be photography libray system?

    Help me please.

    Thanks in advance

    Antunes Duarte (greetings from Portugal)

    Is it possible to move the library and continuing to be photography libray system?

    You can set the photo library of the system in Photos > Preferences.

    Double click on the library on your external drive to open pictures. When the Photos is running, open the Photos > Preferences > General.

    Click on the button 'Use as Photo Library system'.

    If this button is gray, fine - the library is already the photo library of the system and you can activate iCloud photo library for her.

    If you want to use the library with iCloud, the disk must be formatted correctly.  You can use a hard drive with iCloud photo library, if the file system is Mac OS extended (journaled).

  • I can't move the firefox window, or use the reduce/close/maximize buttons. I have no addons

    I'm on windows 8.1, and firefox worked fine yesterday. Today I can't move the window, reduce, enlarge and close without end of tasks, tried refreshing, reinstall. Still nothing. The only addon I ever is adblock and when retired that didn't fix it either.

  • Can W7 \64 bit\FF42.0\How I move the profiles?

    Everything seems to work perfectly. But I realized that I should be able to find how to move my profile to another drive on my computer somewhere in the profile itself. I've looked everywhere I can think of and can't find this info. If you can tell me where it is, maybe I can manage. But if not, can you tell me how to move the profiles? My os is Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. I am running Firefox 42.0. Your guesses are all correct, except that I'm not sure about the plugin from Adobe. Thanks for any help.

    You can use the Profile Manager to create a new profile on a different hard drive folder by clicking on the button "choose a folder.
    Be sure to select a new empty file and not a folder that already contains files.

    You can transfer files from the current profile folder to this folder.

  • MBPro stops during startup.  If I continually move the mouse during startup, it will go on my desk.  If I launch Firefox and try to do anything, it stops.  This can be corrected?

    Mac Book Pro stops unexpectedly during startup.  I can get it to go to my office, if I continually move the mouse during the boot, but after I launched Firefox and try to do anything, it will stop.  If I try to run the scans of security or reinstall OS X using the command + R and disk utilities, it stops.  Sometimes it gives me a box saying something about stopping with various options such as Cancel, stop, reboot, etc., but it makes no difference that I click on, she stops.  Sometimes, I get no warning at all.  This can be corrected?  I'm not savvy Mac.
