Need help Lightroom Catalog

• Please help, Lightroom Catalog recovery methods.

  I currently use:

  -Macbook Pro

  -Lightroom 5

  A week ago my Mac operating system crashed. I was able to recover data from my hard drive, including saved the 5 Lightroom catalog files. However, when I try to "import an another catalog" on the file menu of Lightroom, I get an error that says: "Lightroom cannot import of this catalogue the catalogue does not seem to be a valid Lightroom Catalog." The catalog has 346 MB of data, so I know there is data on the .lrcat file, but Lightroom does not allow me to open it. This is also the case when I try to import files from a previous backup .lrcat file that has only 96 MB. I set the admin, user, staff and all the privileges in reading & Wright, but I still cannot access any data in Lightroom. The .lrcat file is the only file in the backup folder. This is the case for each previous backup file and the Lightroom folder in the backup drive (I put these files for read & Wright so privileges).

  Can someone please help me or give advice as to where I can find a service that will help me to get these settings to photo editing? I lost more than 7000 + pictures I need for work (I am a professional photographer).

  Apart from allowing authorizations and re - install an older version of Lightroom, I don't know what else to try.

  If anyone has had this problem before / is there a Lightroom Catalog recovery service who can help me?

  Thank you

  Yes, the same thought as before.

  I don't think there is a way to make this catalog work.

  Furthermore, copies made after a crash are not what I call backups. You need to make regular and automated backups of your files and catalog using the built-in functionality of Lightroom, you also want to check the box that says "Test integrity before Backing Up.

• Need help importing to LightRoom

  I am checking Lightroom again.  I managed to convert my library a few months as a test without any problems, but was not ready yet to let go of Aperture.  So I deleted the Lightroom Catalog.  I wanted to test Lightroom again, and yesterday I tried again using Lightroom conversion plugin.  It brings only 4 pictures and then seems stuck.  A few hours pass without movement.  I stopped the process, delete the catalog, rebuilt the Aperture library and tried again, several times, with exactly the same results.

  The Lightroom forum shows a lot of people with similar problems, and nobody seems to have an answer.  So I decided to post here to see if someone can help me?

  It's fixed...  I discovered that my installation of Lightroom needed an update.  The creative cloud everything is sort of confusion - I guess I have to get used to.  I had to upgrade the program Creative cloud himself, and after that it detected Lightroom to update.  After update of Lightroom, import seems to work very well.

• Need help to determine which catalog use

  I transferred everything from my old Mac to an external hard drive a few months back and now I need to transfer it to a new computer. I have two files distinct .lrcat

  Lightroom Catalog.lrcat 27 February 2016 721.3 MB

  5 Lightroom Catalog.lrcat 9 February 2016 MB 723,7

  I did not use LR since backup catalogs, and I'm not quite clear on which is the correct catalog. I think that the newest, although curiously, the oldest is larger in file size. Anyone has any ideas on this? What version of LR this catalogue belong to Lightroom Catalog.lrcat

  Thanks for any help

  LR CC/6 is out for about a year. He started with LR CC 2015.0 (LR 6.0) and is currently at 2105/6 5.1.

  The desired catalog is CC, Lightroom Catalog.lrcat.

  You might want to consider renaming it to Lightroom Catalog.lrcat of CC - 6 so you don't get confused in the future. Once rename you it with the program of file manager for all your BONES, you have to do is either double-click on it or once LR is open, select file > open catalog and open that has renamed the file catalog.

• Urgent help repair 6 Lightroom Catalog "Lightroom encountered problems reading or writing to the disk when you try to repair the catalog»

  My Lightroom Catalog worked perfectly until 2 days ago.

  When I try to open my catalog this error message pop up

  

  And when I try to repair my catalog a green bar progress displays briefly, then this pop up.

  

  I clicked on 'Retry' several times but it still does not work. My catalog is on an external hard drive with 1.46 TB of free space. I use Lightroom 6 on a laptop with Windows 8.

  I tried other things:

  • Looking for a .lock file delete
  • Create a new catalog and import the other catalog in it (when I try to it says "Lightroom cannot import this catalog.) This catalog doesn't seem to be a valid Lightroom Catalog.')

  Help, please! I have not all backups with that I can restore my catalog. I am a student in photography and it would be extremely annoying that I lost all my edits/flags of this catalogue.

  You never solved this problem?

  I am totally confused and aren't sure what to do next.

  You need a new external drive, and you need to STOP using your old.

  There is no real repair a hard drive once it starts to miss. Of course you can repair the file structure, but it's to get the file there. Once a drive starts to go wrong it will never get better or even remain the same.

• Need help with Ora-00001: constraint Unique voilated in catalog synchronization

  Hi Experts...

  Has got some problem in the catalog... desperately need help...

  Oracle: 11 GR 2

  Here is a detail of the error.

  from full resynchronization of the recovery catalog

  RMAN-00571: ===========================================================

  RMAN-00569: = ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS =.

  RMAN-00571: ===========================================================

  ORA-00001: unique constraint (DNKF_GRIP. BRL_U1) violated

  ========================++++++++++++++++=========================

  Kind regards

  Hei,

  Cool... I have also encountered this kind of error long back... Follow and fortunately we it will be solved.

  A problem with the constraint or the Index after the upgrade of the catalogue in 11 GR 2

  Remove the constraint, if available, otherwise check index, if found the drop... Rest is history...

  First, check the BRL_U1... It can be constrained or an index on the catalog database.

  May be it's problem... the compulsion was abandoned during the catalog migration process, but the corresponding index has not been abandoned.

  The catalog DB:

  -Removal of the index

  SQL > connect rman.

  SQL > select * from user_constraints where constraint_name = "BRL_U1";

  SQL > select * from user_indexes where index_name = "BRL_U1";

  SQL > drop index BRL_U1;

  Once it will be deposited now connect to the production database to connect to the catalog and re-synchronize... It should work like that...

  RMAN target / catalog rman/password@catalog_db_name

  RMAN > catalog resync;

  from full resynchronization of the recovery catalog

  full complete Resync

  RMAN > exit

  ======================================

  Kind regards

• need help syncing replacement of the external hard drive for Lightroom

  Hello Lightroom community.

  I've exhausted my research and am now seeking help. Please direct me to this information in the forum if it exists. Also, I am a novice and while I am learning lightroom quickly with all my time spent in forums and online videos, I am limited in my understanding of how it all works.

  Problem: I store my Lightroom Catalog and backups on my portable MacBook Pro. I use two external hard drives to store all my images and store my time machine backups. My external hard drive (1-hand) and my external hard drive (2-Back-up) were also well synchronized with the catalog and recognized by lightroom when I edited the pictures. I mainly used the DHM 1-hand when I edited, especially when I went. Last month, my main 1 - EHD died and was unrecoverable. I got lucky that my backup drive (DHM 2-back-up) has always had the images and changes.

  In order to quickly save my 'JEP 2-back-up"to a new 'Hand' work external hard drive replacement, I dragged and dropped the backup disk images to the new"Main"drive so that I can sleep at night. This gave me the peace of mind that all of my images and backups time machine were now on two disks again. (Note: the new ' hand ' disk has a different name. ") Is this important?)

  How can I get Lightroom to recognize and sync with my new drive and photos? Is there a simple way to do this or do I have to restart the process from the beginning? If so, where should I start? I'm afraid to attempt without some advice/suggestions from the experts.

  Thank you for any information, you can pass it along! Please let me know what I can provide additional information.

  Side note: when I looked to import the images of the new 'Hand' DHM - although this would make duplicates-Lightroom recognized that there are duplicates. So, where is the missing link?

  If you can rename the new primary drive to match exactly the name of the previous main drive, that should correct the problem.

  If this is not the case, then you want to open your Lightroom Catalog and then reconnect the top-level folder that contains your pictures by right-clicking on this top-level folder and then to find Missing folder pointing Lightroom on the equivalent top level on your new drive main folder. The details are described here (see Figure 4): Adobe Lightroom - find folders and files moved or missing

  Side note: re-import never corrects this problem, it only makes it worse. Never use to reimport into solution in Lightroom.
