old catalog contains pictures on drive E, photos now I drive. What I find 14 000 on the i drive in LR

Hard drive failed so im reinstalling LR and want all the stuff from the previous catalog to work with this new facility. How to make that happen?

N ° as long as you can find missing files so that Lightroom can synchronize with them all the work you've done will remain intact.

  • installed V13 C:\ drive - old catalog v7 to external drive E:\.  Don't copy not to.

    Today, I upgraded from v7 to v13.  When I tried to manage catalogs (Convert & rename), it seems that the catalog is empty (in v13).   I installed the upgrade program on my hard drive of the laptop (under can I 8.1) C:\.  My catalog (v7) is on an external drive E:\.

    That's how the old v7 has been implemented also.

    Should I have installed my external hard drive upgrade program?  Expected - this important?

    Any help much appreciated.

    When you try to manage catalogs and convert them, you need to navigate to the location of the catalog folder on E: drive. The empty v13 catalog looks like by default created on C: during the installation process. To be sure, check "already converted catalogs" and use the "search other catalogues" button to navigate to the location of the catalog v7 tha on E:

    To find the location of the catalog on E: folder, use v7 and the menu help/information system. Or use the Explorer to find a folder that contains the database file 'catalog.pse7db '.

  • If your catalog contains all changes to my photos how can I give a picture of someone else without the catalog?

    This is going to sound very stupid. I'm new to Lightroom, so it's probably obvious. It is my understanding that Lightroom does not change your original photos and simply stores all changes in catalog file. So how it is when you give someone a photo you have edited that they will get the edited image if they have Lightroom and my catalog? Lightroom is some publish kind of command that creates the file, you can then specify?

    Lightroom has an export option that allows you to export to JPEG, TIF or PSD copies, and those exported copies will include all the settings made using Lightroom. You may find it useful to take the time to watch this video series, since you are new to Lightroom.

  • Move a catalog to a faster drive.

    I currently have my main 'gwcat-2 - 2.lrcat' catalog to what I think is the directory default ':...» D:\Users\George\Pictures\Lightroom ".  I would like to move to a faster drive.  Should I JUST move the lrcat file, or moves to the gwcat-2-2 required Previews.lrdata?

    There are a LOT of things in lrdata! and would take a long time to move.  I have always been a bit confused by the difference between 'Previews.lrdatafa' and the directory cache (I already have on SSD cache directory).  -If you go just the definition of terms, it looks like a distinction without a difference.

    Thanks in advance for any info.

    George,

    The 'lrcat' catalog is the only absolute. Moving previews (i.e. "lrdata") folder is optional. At least that your catalog contains several 10's of thousands of images she wanted to hold as long as the reconstruction of new insights. That being said, reconstruction of new insights from scratch often helps to eliminates some of the problems that may arise about their size and quality, especially for those images that have not been seen since before the last update of Lightroom. Also, and no matter if you move the previews or not, I recommend that you run the command Catalogue optimize after you move the catalog. This will ensure that all the crud of any recent import and delete sessions is cleaned.

    Apple Photo 1.3 serious problems - how can I SOLVE all these problems?

    (1) breaks down without rhyme or reason no matter where I am in the workflow.

    (2) pictures will not be Shut Down Every Time, even after several days of waiting.

    (3) aPhoto frequently badly chooses picture in the EDIT picture option, I get a picture different than the one I clicked on which is on a 100 pictures in a row.

    (4) picture constantly order of photos in a slideshow changes no matter how many times the movements of the end user the photo back to the good look at an order. Example: Bathroom Plans eventually grouped with pictures of kitchen! I have found no way to stop this weird behavior! Is there a way to stop this? If I drag the photo again some 7 additional photos in the slide show, after a minute or less, he appears again to where it was it not. !@#$%$#

    (5) If you make any CHANGES to a photo, it often changes the appearance of your complete slideshow of this picture with impatience. So you lose all this not work fix your configuration of the slide show. Even changing the order of photos once more that I had put back where they should be. !@#$$#@

    (6) photo identifies often shades of lamps and long door handles as the faces of the people.

    (7) photo made bad decisions when it comes to brightness, contrast and colors effortlessly around other than to use other software, where as with iPhoto there was a lot of workarounds. I could continue, but will save one who might be reading of this.

    I am up to date on all updates for my Mac. If anyone have REAL answers so please spilling the beans, but according to me, it's the only truth is that Apple has rolled out a product inferrer to replace an exceptional product, called iPhoto, which does not work on my new iMac computer 5K of 27 ".   If I knew what I would have chosen another computer that I use iPhoto to prepare more of fifty to sixty thousand photos in a given year and I use iPhoto to make hundreds of slideshows from it.  Are there plugins for Photo 1.3? I ask because I see where there could be Add-ons, but I can't find.

    Apple has taken a serious decision by turning his back to iPhoto and tens of millions of loyal users.

    Thanks in advance to anyone brave enough to tackle this job.

  • Photos shows a date incorrect (January 1, 1970), even if the date in the Finder is correct

    Recently, when I import pictures I took on my phone Android in Photos, they all indicate the date created January 1, 1970 (which, in my opinion, happens when there is no data to date) even if the described Finder properly the date of creation.

    It also happened when I tried to import into iPhoto. The only exceptions are the videos and photos, that I have edited in my Android phone before copying them on my computer. I'm not sure if the problem lies with Photos or my phone, but apparently from the Finder Gets the correct date information should - not be possible for Photos as well?

    Date Finder, do you mean the creation of file? Pictures which have a date in the form of data in the file? It's different to the creation date of the file that you usually see in the finder. Same place as the manufacturer of location data and camera will be stored.

    Would the image Photo app is not looking at the creation Date of the file, but the Date field for Photo taking

  • I need to transfer old to newer computer laptop CS5, but lost disk because I have not the number can only find 20 digits in the serial no while I need 24 someone can help

    I have copy of CS5 on the old laptop and really need to do on my newer computer operating system windows, but the purchased disk was originally lost.  Help please I have improved my cameras and they are not supported in CS3 and I don't want to bother with the DNG Converter.  Looking at the details of loading originally in 2010 I have only 20 digits of the serial number that I need to finish loading on the new computer from 24.

  • Missing labels and pictures in the old catalog after creating a new catalog.

    I created a new catalog for pictures of the new year.  I use the same Adobe version 8 and the computer as before.  Then I imported the photos to the new catalog and labeled them.  I deleted all the titles tags keywords I is no longer necessary in the new catalogue.  However, I went to my old corset from last year today only to find 1: all the photos containing the tag under titles I deleted in the new catalogue are not there and 2:all tags and keywords are missing from the photos that are always there,  So basically, there's nothing the tag and most of the photos is absent from photoshop! How can I get back them?

    Thank you

    If the files are identical, they have reconnected.

    From now on, all I can suggest is delete the last batch import of files you imported earlier. And try to manually reconnect with their counterparts of the files on the disk. I know its annoying, but it's the only option left IMO.

    It is always advisable to take a backup of the catalog from time to time to avoid such situations.

    Thank you

  • What is the best way to transfer pictures from an old computer to a flash drive or a drive back then to a new computer?

    What is the best way to transfer pictures from an old computer to a flash drive or a drive back then to a new computer?

    The easiest and most reliable I've found is to make the direct drag-and-drop method.

    (1) on the old computer, open your Windows Explorer and go to your photos.

    (2) open another Windows Explorer window and access your 'Computer' folder and in your flash drive

    (3) drag the photos to the flash drive.

    (4) take the flash drive on the new computer and drag them into your images folder

    HI ATR

    Just update you 13 windows 7 items... I sat until midnight and found the program data and ended up finding the catalog. I deleted the catalog now. and uninstalled items 13. I hope that when I reinstall it will be like new, and I can go back again. I had messed up I saw when viewing the photos in the media, it was media files and thought they shouldn't be there so I deleted them. Maybe thinking about now I get an error. Before, I made a slideshow with the media from the drive. I just started using elements 13 I used windows live previously for videos. Can you let me know also what photoshop elements or first, you use the most.  Also if I import video files in why do I see them I think of thumbnails. That's where I went wrong and thinking, they shouldn't be here. I brought a few books and trying to go through the learning process. What camera do you use?  Many questions sorry. Thanks for any help.  Russell

  • Import an old catalog and photos from different place

    Hey,.

    I am on a new computer, with different folders, file structure, etc. using Lr 3 instead of 2 Lr. I'm an old catalogue LR 2 any Lr 3. I open the lrcat file, relaunch Lr, lrcat file update and everything is fine, except that my photos are now in a different location (catalog) than they were when I treated the Lr 2. How do I point to the new location? I would not restore all the old catalog structure, because I'm now on Win7 instead of Win XP (which is a mistake btw).

    Any help will be appreciated. Sorry if this has already been addressed, but I couldn't fid solution.

  • I copied the photo library on external drive, and that one photo now shows despite the file being 70 GB.

    I had a library in iPhoto on an external HARD drive, and it worked. This is a disc plu so I decided to replace it with a new one that doesn't take much space on my desk. I copied the library through an external DRIVE to another drive, and it seemed to work. However, it now shows that a single photo despite being listed in the file manager as containing more than 70 GB.

    I explored a bit further in the file using finder and preview and found many files sorted by date. The photos seem to be all there, but they appear in iPhoto when I switched to this library. Always only one picture appears.

    I decided to convert the copied pictures from iPhoto library and it took a lot of time to convert, but the converted library always display just a single photo in Photos when I switch to this library.

    I could import all of them individually, but it's a big enough job, if there is a way to get libraries to work correctly.

    Any suggestions?

    We need the details - what format is the drive? How is it connected? It serves a TM backup Volume? How you copied the library itself? The library still works fine on the old drive? anything else you can tell us which could help a total strange who don't see you help?
