Moving and sharing photos - catalog questions

Until recently, all my photos were on a single disc with a Lightroom catalog. Now, there are too many pictures for a single disc, so I split it into two disks and created a new catalog to deal with two different places. Of course, I immediately lost all my ambient light changes. I have a lot of backups, so nothing was really lost now the question:

How to keep a Lightroom catalog while dividing the pictures into two discs AND keep all my changes, virtual copies, etc.?

Right now, the restored catalog contains all the changes, but half of the photos are not where the catalogue is expected to make them. What is the way simpler and more secure to do?

CC of Lightroom, windows 7/64, all software up to date running.

Thank you

A single catalog, Lightroom can support photos stored on several disks, even the pictures offline. If you want to move pictures from one album to another, you can do the moves within Lightroom. If you choose to make the trip in the operating system, then you can create a link to the photos. In short, it can all be done with a single catalog.

    As overwhelming, any tips/shortcuts/schemes, you can offer are welcome!

    As I only have the version of the EP, here is some info on the organiser:

    https://helpx.Adobe.com/Photoshop-elements/how-to/use-elements-Organizer.html

    Independent of how this feature works, you want to have your photos in one place and have a backup (second copy) somewhere else. All hard drives will not be successful at some point - some more early, some late - never trust to have your files in any safety devices if they are on a single disc. Once you have your sorted, it would be useful that you will organize/name/tag new photos immediately if the task is relatively short and simple. I copy my photos on my internal hard drive for my camera, take a quick look with preview to see who needs some changes and then decide where to put them - either drop them immediately after naming them or bring in an editing application and then file them away.

  • My iPod touch 6 says that I used GB 7.3 on pictures of my shared photo streams, yet I barely have pictures and has not implemented the sharing.

    I have 114 MB of storage due to my photos app space. When I click on 'Storage & use iCloud', it shows that I have used 7.1 GB in the photos, and I have only 25 photos and videos in all. It is said that the majority of data is used my my "flow of shared photos", but I never set up who.

    Check how much storage you had when you got the iPod.  It could just be a few pictures noted a greater percentage of your storage space.

  • I have a problem of my catalogs of PES 10 displacement and the photos attached from my old computer with Windows XP on my new computer with Windows 10.  The problem is that I can't remember the arrangement of the original tree of my photo folders when I r

    I have a problem of my catalogs of PES 10 displacement and the photos attached from my old computer with Windows XP on my new computer with Windows 10.  How can I keep my original photo folders tree arrangement when I restore backups of catalog on the new machine?

    The problem arises because Windows 10 is equipped with a new tree structure with new names for many of its branches.  Tree of Windows XP starts to Local Disk (C), and then does the following: Documents and settings, Susan [it's me the user], My Documents, SusanPhotos (the folder that I created that contains my photos) and then several subfolders and subfolders with my photos grouped by theme, for example the Puglia Italy and Italy-Roma.  My new computer Windows 10 has a different tree and different names for a large number of branches from early on: OS (C) [instead of Local Disk (C)], users, Susan, Documents [instead of the old My Documents], SusanPhotos [what I created] and then the subfolders and so on.

    Because of the new tree and the new names of the branch, I can't find a way to restore my PES 10 catalogues and photos attached to them to where I want to that they.  What I want to do is put the files from SusanPhotos to the Windows 10 Documents folder so that I find myself with the following tree, essentially the same as what I had on my old machine: OS (C), users, Documents, Susan, SusanPhotos, then the original subfolders with my photos.  Apparently 10 PSE does not allow me to move folders of photos in the Organizer, so that the pictures stay connected.

    PES 10 offers 3 options for restoration: Original, personalized and customized, keeping the original structure of the file.  Here's what happens to each:

    (1) original creates new folders with the old names and the structure of the tree, parallel to the tree Windows 10 has instead of inside the tree Windows 10.

    (2) custom with the original structure of the file is the restaurant where I want (within the SusanPhotos) but retains all branches superfluous-instant initial tree of Windows XP, production: BONES (C), users, Documents, Susan, SusanPhotos, Documents and settings [carried over from the old computer], Susan, My Documents, SusanPhotos, Roma-Italy and Italy-Puglia and so on.

    (3) custom (without checking the original file structure box) makes every SusanPhotos but without any organization: OS (C),..., SusanPhotos, Italy-Puglia and Italy-Roma and all other folders at the same level instead of in their original nested groups with subfolders.

    The first two methods you end up with a tree that is chaotic with two parallel trunks or a single trunk but with several redundant layers carried over from the old computer.  The third ends with no tree at all.

    One solution would be to make a Custom Restore with the original structure of the file and then use PSE10 to move the folders that I would like.  However, AFAIK, PSE10 I cannot move entire folders of photos, only of individual pictures.  With thousands of photos in hundreds of cases, the time required for the movement of individual pictures is prohibitive.  PSE10 allows me to move the catalog folder, but apparently not the folders containing the photos.

    The result is that at this time I have no solution to my problem.  Can you help me find a way to restore my photos while keeping their original organization?

    You simply use the 'Files' Panel on the left. Your folder tree appears. Simply, you drag and drop the folder to move with all its subfolders in the desired master file. That works exactly as in Solution Explorer, so be patient, you receive no message of progress until it is completed.

    You did a good job to understand the situation. I think that might help you is to understand that changes in the way default folders are created in a different version of Windows can be ignored if you do not use these structure 'default', from the shortcuts to your main folder of the user.

    I create a master folder 'My Photos' directly under the C: root.

    When I restore, I use the "custom" choice, as you have discovered, I only specify this folder in the restore process, and I completely ignore the default shortcuts to 'Documents' or 'Image '.

  • sharing photos on iOS

    In iOS, we can add multiple accounts to: email, contacts, calendar and so on.  Why we can not choose which iCloud account we want for our photos?  My wife and I have separate apple ID, you can easily share contacts that we can simply use some iCloud/s account we want on our phones.  Why can not do this with pictures?  My wife and I want to take pictures of our distinct features but want all the photos on a same goto iCloud account.  Any suggestions?  iPhone 6 s more, ios10 and iPhone 7, ios10.

    First, Apple does not have Apple ID to share as you mention, i.e. for contacts.  If you want to share photos, the only way it can be done is through - iCloud, sharing photos - Apple Support

  • Shared photos showing the data flow but it is off

    Hello

    My phone keeps telling that storage is almost full and when I went into settings - storage - and camera is that Shared Photo Stream uses 4 KB. I don't even have Shared Photo Stream active... anyone know how to find these photos or how to remove the data used? Thank you

    Hello monkeyface0508,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. It is my understanding that photo stream is too much space on your iPhone 6 sec, even if you do not use. I know how valuable storage capacity can be on any device. I want to ensure that your data and storage are accurate.

    Given that you have confirmed that the photo stream is turned off, I recommend you to restart the phone. This can solve many unexpected behaviours. Follow the steps below to restart.

    1. Press and hold the sleep/wake button until the Red slider appears.
    2. Drag the slider to turn off your device completely off.
    3. Once the device turns off, press and hold the sleep/wake button again until you see the Apple logo.

    Restart your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch

    In addition, check your Photos app to see if there is an album of Photo Stream shown. Please use the link below for more information on checking your storage space.
    Check the storage on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

    Have a great day!

  • Is there an optimal resolution for iCloud sharing Photos

    Is there an optimal resolution for iCloud Photos sharing on computers, iPad and Apple TV?

    I want to scan photo album my grandparents to share with my friends and family. I scanned a few pages of test at 3200 x 2000 pixels. They have look great on my Mac and look great on an iPad also. I want to future proof them for 4 k and recent televisions.

    Is the size of 3200 x 2000 pixels too small, too large or OK?

    If you want to transfer photos using iCloud shared Albums, photo sharing, they will be transferred from smaller - the edge long will be at maximum 2048 pixels, unless they are panoramic.

    I would scan the photos to a pixel size you want to keep for reference, so you can print them in a format you like - 4000 x 3000 pixels or more, and when you share with iCloud, sharing photos they will be slightly reduced in any way.

    my ipod touch received a text and panoramic photo from an iphone 6se, now my messages are empty and starts a restart, is there a way to fix this?

    I can't really answer this question completely because I don't know what software was used, or what processes might have been involved in stitching panoramic photo. A possible "fix" would be to save the image on an external and view on a larger screen - like an iMac.

    If your version is actually 4.3.2 is perhaps part of the problem. The latest version of iOS is 9.3.5.

  • Cannot start sharing photos icloud

    I have several apple devices that can access iCloud, photo sharing, but not my primary iMac. However, if I register in a guest account, I can access iCloud, photo sharing. I guess it's a system file problem, but don't know which.

    When I go to Shared in pictures, I get a message, "iCloud Photo Sharing is available in the library of Photo System." I toggled iCloud Photos on and outside, signed in and out of the iCloud, removed com.apple.cloudphotosd, among others and still no love. Any ideas?

    El Cap 10.11.6, but had the same problem in older versions as well.

    You give confused information

    What exactly you are doing - sharing photos to iCloud and iCloud photo library are two totally different services - with iCloud, photo sharing you do not access to ' ' photos - you invite people to subscribe to shared albums

    What version of the operating system and Photos are automatically using, and what are your settings on your Mac and on every IOS device iCloud. And as for the library system - launch Photos using the library wanted and then in the preferences to set it as the system library (if defined as system library is grayed out it's library system)

  • One of my shared photos albums is frozen?

    I have several shared photo albums and did not have any problems until recently when the album that I share with my girlfriend stopped updating.

    I almost always add my photos from my iPhone, but on May 17, I got a few photos on my iPad, I wanted to add. I added 14 photos and never really thought more about it. Since that time I had been adding many more photos from my iPhone, but I noticed that it never came on my iPad. Then I noticed that on 14 photos on my iPad, I added, only 2 people appeared in the album shared on my iPhone.

    Today, my girlfriend told me that she had recently added a bunch of pictures, but I never had my iPhone or my iPad. So I asked him to check who were the last pictures got me in his shared album, and it turns out that the 2 pictures that made successfully from my iPad to the album shared on my iPhone were also the last pictures got me.

    I tried to disable and the reactivation of the shared albums in iCloud settings on my iPhone and my iPad, but that doesn't seem to force the update anything. I can also confirm that my devices properly receives photos in all other shared albums, and photo streams also seems to synchronize photos between my iPhone and iPad successfully (photos on the iPhone appear on my iPad and vice versa).

    Clues why this a shared private album could suddenly break and what I could do to fix it?

    Apparently, the album was full. iOS could not provide this information, but once I got to my Mac and tried to add a new photo in the album, he says the album was full. So in case anyone else has this problem, there you go

  • ICloud BIG problem of sharing photos!

    My albums of shared photo stream are all grayed out. I restarted my iPhone and I tried waiting, but it simply doesn't. What should I do? I have so many pictures on it. I really need help, someone please help!

    Even some of my photos from camera roll are gray. There's the funniest photos I erased yesterday who were in my photo stream are appearing and everything else is all gray and I cannot access the pictures.
