• Need help Lightroom Catalog

  My boss recently shot a lot of photos in Europe for a customer. There are about 20 folders full of images. She went through the first 10 files in Lightroom, and made the choice to those she wanted me to work using the ranking system '5 star '... Then she had to go to California and took the 10 remaining files with it on a separate hard drive to make its choice in these matters, and she'll send me this hard drive... So, my question is, in order to get his selections does the disk external hard in the same catalog LR, I did already in the office, it would be preferable to send the LR catalog file, and for his work on the same, even if she won't have to the first half of the images with it? Would this work again? - Or it would work better if she did a new catalog, and that I would then be able to merge the two when I get the drive? Thanks in advance for any help!

  That's right, you'll be able to see the changes made to the catalog once you merge the catalog.

  I don't want to upgrade to CC LR6.  I have re-uploaded LR 5.7.1 last night, and now I can't have hundreds of my photos.  In addition, my develop module has been disabled.  How can I have access to all my catalogs and don't use NO of CC?

  Hi Pamelaa,

  Go to the location where the Lightroom Catalog is stored and try the most recent catalog.

  Also in Lightroom, go to file > open recent item and see if you have any other catalog here.

  And for the disabled development module, please see: module development disabled

  Let me know if it helps.

  I bought the lightroom 6 worked fine, now it used to open when I try to open the Dungeon of circle of color on spining and wont start, I work with mac, please help me, tried to shut down and restart, nothing works?

  Try to hold the alt/option key while you restart Lightroom. Make sure that the right catalog file is selected and click on the "integrity test" box to see if there is a problem with the catalog file that might be repaired.

• 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.

• Please HELP - I am trying to open a catalog and window says: the catalog cannot be opened becau

  Please HELP - I am trying to open a catalog and window says: cannot open the catalog because another application has already opened - but NOT the OTHER RCTs is open. The continue button does nothing and there is a button to choose a different catalog which I did not need. How do I avoid this? Can HoD I open the catalog. I even tried to open it on the other computer and said the same thing. This is a problem with the hard drive? THANKS for any help!

  Lenka,

  Easy solution: find the catalog of lightroom on your hard drive. It ends by ".". LRCAT. In the same folder, there will be a file named .lock. Remove the .lock file and then run Lightroom. Everything will be fine.

• Can't recovery my HP laptop please help

  Hi, I have an Hp laptop (model: G62-340US) that I bought in 2009. Finally, it crushed in 2012 and has conducted the test and repeated my system without a reboot disk features. He told me to press F11 to recover my system, but it does not work. I did not initially to create a backup recovery disk when I bought the system but in my defense, the new feature says that a disc would not need to restore the system. Nevertheless, I should created one when even my problem is when I start my computer, the HP logo starts but need me a screen where it tells me that his writing copy protected and that there no disc reboot please install reboot disk. I have tried F11 but nothing happends and I tried esc knock to get recovery screen where I can choose F1 through F11. I chose F11 but it'll still take me to the screen where it ask me to insert the disc to reboot. I hope that my hard drive is not fried and if all goes well at least pay for a disk to reboot. Y at - there a step I'm missing? I mean I can't even get into my operating system (Windows 7) to try to recover from this end. Please help... Thank you.

  You should be able to install a 2.5 "drive hard 9.5 SATA2 mm, up to 1 TB, with no problems. The disc can be either 7200 rpm or 5400 RPM. A disc of 750 GB or 1 TB 7200 RPM may cause a slight decrease in the life of the battery. Other than that, they do not cause any problem and you won't need to replace / upgrade your battery or other components.

  I hate sourcing of a hard drive on eBay and stick to an online retailer or a local store.

  If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

• I don't have recovery cd but I use a licensed version of vista and I have certificate too so please help me for this

  Please help me as I'm getting my system recovery

  Most laptops and many OEM desktop computers (HP, Sony, etc.) come with a picture of factory restore on a special partition on the hard drive. The factory restore process is normally called by pressing a key of function (such as F11) to start the computer. There will be a message as to what function key press the screen when you start your computer. You can also consult the manual of your computer or the computer mftr.'s site, or contact technical support to learn how to restore your computer if you plant from each computer mftr. He does it differently - sometimes even between models.

  These machines also generally have a utility to create physical recovery disks in case the hard drive needs to be replaced or the factory restore image is somewhat damaged. If you have not created the recovery image recovery physical and/or damaged disks, contact technical support of computer mftr. to order a set of recovery disks. It is normally very expensive, around $20-25. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  How to reformat DV2500 HP without the recovery disk? my recovery disk went T_T PLEASE help me thank you

  If your goal is to reinstall the operating system there are ways to achieve

  We need to tap the F11 key immediately after presswing the laptop power button. Who will call the Recovery Manager unless you have deleted the recovery partition or have done something to the original disk partition scheme. In the Recovery Manager simply choose to recover your PC for the original operating system

  Alternatively, you can order a set of HP recovery disks.

• Help!  Adding extra images in my lightroom catalog

  I'm having a brain PET!  I don't remember how to add additional files to my current lightroom catalog.  I was imaging and realized there were about 90 who were not currently in the Group of files, I was working on that.  How can I add them without losing the editing I've done on the other images?

  TIA

  Two ways-

  1. (and best) IMPORT.  Click on the import button, set the 'Source' folder of additional photos, set the method to 'Add', set "do not import duplicates" option. Click [Import] only the pictures that are not already in the catalog will be imported.

  2. with the folders Panel visible, right-click on the folder with additional photos wanted, select "synchronize the folder. This will open a dialog box that will do an import of additional files. Attention here!-this will also REMOVE the files that you have marked as "rejected".

  And why these files (90 odd) has been in the front catalog? Ideally you should index every photo in the Lightroom Catalog (not be selective!).
