Moving images, lightroom mobile for external hard drive - how?

Hey all,.

I'm mobile synchronization of images from Lightroom and the images are so not in my normal hard drive folder structure.  Periodically, I offer my images on my main hard drive to two external drives.  How can I manage this process of getting the images synchronized to an external hard drive?

Thank you

Andrew

Hi André,.

You can specify the location of Lightroom Mobile images to be stored in the Lightroom preferences > Lightroom mobile tab > check "Specify a location for the mobile Lightroom images" > click on select, then select the location

Kind regards

  • Lightroom CC - edition in the external editor with images located on the external hard drive problems

    I have recently moved most of my image containing folders on external hard drive. In general, everything works smoothly in Lightroom (running latest CC). However, if I try to use an external editor of in Lightroom, I managed opening image in Photoshop CC if it is chosen. However, if I try to edit in a NIK Collection programs (i.e. Viveza 2) or affinity Photo I get error messages. The copy of Tiff is generated within lightroom, but at the spearhead of the external editor the following messages are met...

    • Viveza 2 - 'News file. Plist could not be opened"
    • Photo of affinity - "'could not open the file - / Volumes/4Tb iMac/2015-10-20-202036/Macintosh of the castle of my book 2 Backup/Backups.backupdb/Neil HD/Applications/Adobe Illustrator CS5/Plug-ins.localized/Photoshop Filters.localized/Unsharp Mask.aip/Contents/Resources/he.lproj/InfoPlist.strings the file type is not supported.". " My external backup drive is " " " 4 TB my book 2 backup" but my images are on an external drive called "4 TB My Book 1" ".

    However, if I move the folders containing images of problem on my desktop (iMAC 27 2015) in Lightroom external editor command change... works very well. The images open with Nik Collection and Photo of affinity and save in Lightroom when save. Everyone knows about this problem? And if you have, is there a resolution?


    Any help/advice greatly appreciated.

    Looks like I solved my problem with Lightroom. I disassembled my external backup drive, but upheld the disk external drive containing the photos up and then restarted my mac. After the reboot, I open Lightroom and chose the image on an external drive for mounting in affinity Photo and Collection of Nik. Both image successfully opened in editors. I reassembled the backup drive and rebooted time machine and repeated the same opening picture in external editors. Once again, works great. Have no idea where the original problem. Looks like a bad path was stored in a config somewhere file.

    BOUGHT NEW COMPUTER WINDOWS 10, CHANGED ITUNES MEDIA LOCATION FOR EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE. THE MUSIC DOES NOT APPEAR ON ITUNES.

    Changing the iTunes media folder location setting affects only where new additions to your library will be stored.  To use a disk external drive to store your library complete (and assuming that you have access to the original data of the library on an old computer) you must copy the iTunes folder, by default in C:\Users\username\Music, on the external drive - structure library and its records should be like this:

    The hold button SHIFT DOWN when you start iTunes and when you see this message:

    Click choose a library... then find and select the iTunes Library.itl in iTunes on your external drive folder.

    For more information, see user turingtest2 on make a library of portable split.  You must also acquire a 2nd external drive and allows create and maintain a backup your library.

  • If Adobe has disabled the ability to use Lightroom 5.7 to see the images in the external hard drive, how one judge the images in the file on the external hard drive without bringing back them to the Lightroom library?

    JPEG images being dragged over to Photoshop are veiwable as thumbnails on the external hard drive.  However back to the DNG RAW images are not visible.  Anyway is to visualize images of type external hard disk?  It would be nice to get a glimpse of what you make in Lightroom simply looking on the external hard drive you can with JPEG files.

    The library, just click on the import button and navigate to your folder on the EHD. Choose the folder and click Add at the top of the dialog box. You should see thumbnail previews in the import dialog box where you can select what to import.

  • Mobile LR catalog for external hard drive

    I'm new and in the process of learning LR.  Currently, all my photos are stored and developed in my laptop, but it becomes too much for her hard drive.  I am thinkinng to move all of the LR catalog to an external hard drive.  Could someone please give me some advice how to proceed safely and also how to point LR to its new location, when I open the icon.

    Thank you very much.

    I am pleased to announce that the project has been successfully completed. Thanks to the advice of everyone. That's what I did:

    Some new pictures, asking them to be stored in a subfolder created in the new external hard drive G: has imported. This issue, namely "My LR Photos", is intended to store all my photos in LR in the future. I thought that this will force the G: drive is displayed on the Panel in my LR records. He did.

    Then, in the LR on the Control Panel folder, I moved each subfolder of C: drive for the new folder photo in G:. All photos moved smoothly with their predetermined data intact. None should be reconnected to the original sound.

    I relaunch LR several times to make sure it works and you have no problem at all. It seems to work faster now too.

    I want to thank all three of you for taking interest to share your knowledge and help me to do this without pain.  Best regards.

    Special note to JimHess: I really appreciate your conversation with dj_paige help air cake2 with his problem on another thread. I had a almost the same problem with my LR and worked it out well based on your and dj to air cake2 information.

  • How to export pictures from a sd card to lightroom and and external hard drive at the same time

    Hello

    Is it possible that I can export my photos from my lightroom cameras sd card and an external hard drive at the same time so I have pictures original/master in both places

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Robert!

    Looks like you want to make a backup during import. If this is the case, you can designate a different location for a second copy when importing.

    1. Check the mark a second copy of box in the management of the files Panel and choose your external drive in the menu drop-down
    2. Then you set regular destination of Lightroom in the Destination panel.

    However, if you mean that you want in the foreground images in Lightroom, but have them physically located on an external drive, then all you need to do is choose this drive in the Destination panel. Lightroom Catalog can be on a different drive.

    I find it useful, however, to use the automatic backup in file management Panel in case.

  • Seen my original library cut in two, can I have the second library on my laptop with images referenced on my external hard drive?

    Following the Division of the library and the Organization,

    I can duplicate the library system on an external hard drive. Then divide the library and erase part of it on my library system and do the same on the library to external hard drive blocking the erased part of the library system. Essentially to save space on my laptop. But I need to have two libraries on my laptop, one with the originals and iCloud services, and the second with "small pictures" listed on the external hard drive. Can I do it? How can I do? ¿Is - it safe on two libraries?

    Thank you!

    If you want to turn outside your library in a referenced library, with the originals on the external hard drive, you can not do it by duplicating the library if your original library is managed. Does not support photos to transform photos managed in referenced. The only way to make a photo referenced must import it such that referenced.

    You can do the following:

    • Export all the photo you want to move to a second library to your external drive.
    • Then, create an empty library on your internal drive and import the photos exported to this library with the preference "import. Copy items to the library' for disabled people.
    • Delete all the photos in your library that you moved to your new library referenced iCloud.
    • Keep a backup copy of your original library on your external drive, so that you can revert to the original version, if you made a mistake.
  • 0x8078012D error code when you back up the new pc for external hard drive

    I have a brand new HP Pavilion Windows 7 Home Premium desktop/8 GB memory/1 terabyte hard drive. Just hung up 3 days ago, and after installing my software, attempted to perform a full backup with the image of a brand new Toshiba Canvio 500 GB external hard drive. I get 0x8078012D error code, without interruption.  I did a check on the external hard drive disk, and it was good. I did a check for virus on the external hard drive, and that was good. I have triple checked the settings for backup and they are as I want them to be. -What is the Toshiba external hard drive or my bad nine HP desktop computer?  I had to call HP tech support yesterday as 2 programs, I had already installed has stopped working, but also Java and Adobe Flash Player. HP technical support was not only bad in his work, but right has supported up and hard with me and talked to me. I told her to give me control of my computer and down the phone that I reported him. He wrecked settings that I had, I did a system restore on the eve of the appellant, which was day 2 of owning the new pc. Now everything works as it was and I think that the 2 programs stopped working due to a Microsoft update that I had done that day. I don't have re-uploaded the 6 latest updates from MS and pc seems to work very well, but I can still save on the Toshiba Canvio external hard drive. Last resort, I reformatted the Toshiba Canvio to NTFS, even if it has already formatted to. Still can not make a backup on the external drive. I don't know what to do. Return the pc?  Return the Toshiba Canvio?  I'm in debt $650 for these 2 pieces of metal. Help please!

    Hello

    The error would have occurred if the services related to backup Windows could have been disabled. This can also occur due to other security software installed on the computer.

    Y at - it a third-party security software installed on the computer?

    I suggest you to check if the services are running and in manual mode.

    You can follow the methods:

    Method 1:

    Follow the steps to check if services are running. If not, restart them and check if that helps:

    (a) click Start.

    (b) type Services in the start search.

    (c) in the Services window, search for the shadow copy volume.

    (d) right click on the Service.

    (e) click Properties.

    (f) select Start on ManualType.

    (g) click OK.

    (h) now repeat the same steps for Windows backup service as well.

    Check if you find the same error trying to save using the hard disk. If Yes, proceed to method 2.

    Method 2:

    I suggest to temporarily disable the security software installed on the computer and check if it helps. Check out the link to do so:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

    Important note: security software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    It will be useful.

  • Catalogue Lightroom on the external hard drive or C drive?

    I store my photos on an external hard drive.  Is it better to put the Lightroom Catalog in the folder "images" of this disc hard or on the folder "images" of the C drive?

    Thank you

    The usual advice is to put the catalog on the fastest disk file, that you have, which would probably be your C: drive.

    The only reason that you would put the file catalog on an external drive is if you need portability... to use the catalog on another computer. In this case, I would NOT recommend putting the catalog file in the folder "Images" of external drives. Put somewhere else on this disc.
