the catalog vs. multiple catalogs

Similar Questions

• The catalog - use one or Multiple?

  Question for those of you who have thousands of photos in your catalog. I'm looking for some advice. I've got about 10,000 files in my catalog and this catalog lives on an external hard drive, since I did not have enough space on my computer's internal drive to shelter. I find that Photoshop - more precisely, the organiser - may run very slowly, and I've read before that this may be due to the large size of the catalog. Also, I guess that's because the data has to flow through a USB port, which slows things down, too.

  So here are my questions for entry:

  • Should I cut my photos in several catalogs? In other words, move some of the old photos in the catalogues separated by year, for example?
  • Can I import photos that I take on my internal hard drive, work on them from there and then move them to the external drive when I'm actually a treatment to get a quicker response?
  • Are there other ways to speed up Organizer I'm not considering?

  Any ideas or comments would be appreciated. If it's important, I'm under 8 items on a Windows Vista-based computer.

  You can find the location and the name of your catalog to help file-> System Info.

  If you are not aware of his situation, then I think it's probably at its default location on your C:\ drive, so no need to move.

• Hardware configuration for the catalog, previews and the RAWs?

  Hi all.

  For the past 2 years I've been running a retina 27 "iMac with 512 GB SSD, because it is the essential motivation.

  My catalog, previews and RAWs have all been on a connected USB3 SSD 1 TB and backed up with time machine to 2 TB drive HARD USB3.

  Now all 3 of my discs are at capacity.

  Historically I've shot with a D800 the D810 so the raws were huge. Now, I'm moving to an X - T2.

  The easy answer is to move the SSD to 2 TB SSD and the TM drive to a 4 GB ext USB disk, which should buy me a few years.

  Maybe another option is to invest in a 4-Bay NAS, stick 4x4gb operates to and use the batch for the backup storage and image TM.

  What do you think guys? even if I'm running a processor i7 and 32 GB of RAM, sake still images second or 2 to appear in my current setup, I really don't want them to appear all slower. It was suggested that I could move all the images more than a year on the NAS and keep the catalog, the previews and the latest images on the 1 TB SSD.

  Curious to hear other ideas and configurations that work well.

  Thanks in adv.

  Since you are using a fairly recent Mac she must have a thunderbolt port, otherwise 2 of them and you can also add a USB 3 hub to connect multiple disks to your current configuration. I don't see in adding disks more large and small age of retirement. Just add another 2 disks of the same capacity. You can also get rid of some of the old Time Machine backups to free up space on the drive that you configured for Time Machine.

  As far as I KNOW 99% of multiple NAS boxes drive (Bay) are thus set up a RAID array. Which would limit the overall storage capacity of this box.

  The LR catalog file must also be on a drive connected directly to the computer and not on a network drive.

• Mobile folder in the catalog of the Archives

  I currently have my main LR catalog on my drive internal mac. I would like to start moving images/files in a catalogue of archive on an external drive. What is the best and the most effective means to do so to ensure that everything is copied correctly.

  Thanks in advance.

  Thanks Jim. That all the senses. So not really limit for LR Catalogues? For example a picture library 500 k do not slow down the processing step?

  That is right. The main thing you want to do is to develop a strategy for organizing your images inside only one catalog. Folders, collections, keywords, these are all the tools for organizing your images. Your images can be distributed on multiple disks. Make sure that you have a backup of your images. And it is better if the backup of the catalog is located on a separate disk your primary hard drive if that's where your catalog.

• How to import the structure of the catalog in other machines.

  Hello

  I have two requests. :-

  (1) I have a clothing catalog on my machine that I created in VAC. How to import this catalog structure in the other machines as well.

  (2) how to specify CatalogId in my project if I have multiple catalogs in my project.

  A single catalog, I used to mention catalog Id in catalogTools.properties in /atg/commerce/catalog/catalogtools.properties as:--

  defaultCatalogId = catalog30001

  How to make for several catalogues.

  Please advice.

  Thank you

  1. Go to the path of Jacks dyn/admin

  say in this case u created the ACC catalog data, go to/atg/commerce/catalog/productCatalog jacks

  Run provide name of descriptors section. under the section "operation tags XML on the repository.

  It will export all the data for some component and it is dependancies.if u wan to disable dependencies specify skiP-references = 'true '.

  To import and export data, you can use/ATG_HOME/bin/startSQLRepository command only in dev envirnoment.

  startSQLRepository-m ModuleName-import/export export_file_name-repository repository_component_full_path

  for example: -.

  startSQLRepository m Votre_module-export export.xml - repository/atg/commerce/catalog/ProductCatalog

  startSQLRepository m Votre_module-import export.xml - repository/atg/commerce/catalog/ProductCatalog

  Please make sure that you module is able to connect to the database, otherwise jtdatasource exception will come, not saying do not able to connect Datasouce atgmysqldb (default db configured in the jtdatasoruce property)

  Also if you want to export full db, use all the argument.

  startSQLRepository m Votre_module-export all the export.xml

  2. you have several options for setting catalogid in profile.

  • Use multisite and assign the default catalog to individual sites,
  • Set catalog to the user regiestered profile.
  • Usage scenario to assign the catalog profile based on rules.

• Move the catalog in photoshop elements 10 should move everything, including your photos?

  I would like to move all my photos in my laptop catalog out of my PC on a hard drive. Move catalog it.  I can't find anything about it.  It also moves the catalog of her self.  Want to make a back up but do not.

  While exactly made the choice to "move the catalog?

  What I explained: the catalogue (which is a folder) is moved to the desired location. Move catalog does not change its content, including the location of the image files referenced.

  Move a catalog in the default location on an external USB drive to store all of your media files is a comon task. In this way, you can share your catalog and library between multiple computers with the same version of elements. Replacing the external drive to the internal one after a full backup and a restore disk external hard is also useful to make your catalogs (if you have several of them) are displayed in the same place in the Catalog Manager, having rather navigate to the location of "custom".

• How to consolidate the catalog?

  I have 6000 + photos across multiple drives and 100s of files. I need everything on a single hard drive in a folder. SELECT ALL - MOVE does not move all, only a few small random subset? Restore backup does not build a location even if original location is not checked. Help Adobe does not help.  I am looking for a new program to better organize my catalog, unless this can be done easily.

  Any ideas?

  While you were trying, I practice

  Just for fun to test and prove my point, I did the following:

  -Create a backup of a catalogue of 36 000 pictures (109 pictures GB) located on several drives to an external USB drive.

  -Create another a second catalog of photos of 6,000 after write metadata to files.

  -restore the first requirement in a single master folder on a second internal drive in another computer.

  -restore the other into a subfolder of the folder above to the new computer

  -the catalogue created by the first (main) restoration, I did a file/get pictures / files and folders for the second restoration of the first catalogue restored files.

  What has been the result in my restored main catalog?

  -nothing has been changed my tags, albums and categories to my main catalog

  -a new category of master 'imported' keywords was automatically created and all the second catalog tags have been recovered.

  -the second restoration to create catalog a new catalog for pictures of 6,000, exactly the same as the catalog saved (in a custom location)

  As I said above, the categories and tags for the second catalog have been automatically merged with those of the main catalog, should be something like an hour to do it manually.

  However, I lose nothing categories, albums and creations of the second catalogue, since the restored second catalog is still available from its restoration.

  The very basic move of files in a catalog is simply display the folders in the left panel, dragging files to another location (folder of drive or master). It's more easy and different merger or 'consolidate' catalogs (databases).

  I understand that you may need more details and explanations for results above, so please ask.

• Move the catalog

  I searched the forum and could not find a previous debate.

  Want to know how to move and rename a LR catalog.  I need to do everything with pictures of this catalogue remain in their existing records - about 10 files 17 000 + photos.   The catalog is on drive C and the photos are on an external drive.

  I am a newbie and after I finally understood how import - using multiple catalogs - I noticed that one end which I want to use is in a nest of files I need to delete.

  Jeri

  I would like to move the catalog with OS file, rename & close LR. Then when you restart LR, it will tell you that it cannot find the catalog. Point to your renamed, and everything should be OK. After the fact, it may be more prudent copy the catalog to the new location, rename it, and then open LR. Now open the new catalog, catalog file/open. If all goes well, remove your old.

• Lost and confused... .cannot get LR to find the catalog.

  I recently managed to corral all of my photos one a LaCie Rugged hard drive. It is the reader where I intend to keep my LR photos to have portability. As I have all my pictures on HD, as I did on the iMac running the latest available software, I changed the name of the catalog to "My Photos Lightroom"

  that are stored on the drive that is labeled "LaCie Photos".  After you get them on the LaCie during the same session, I was able to view them without problem.  Okay, I take the drive and connect it to my MacBook Pro, running the same operating system.  LR could not find the catalog.  I tried several 'remedies', which none worked.  I went back to look at the catalogue on the iMac to see how it has been configured so that I could do the same thing on the MacBook and iMac could not find the catalog.  Until I really mess up things I'd rather have someone more competent as me give me some simple advice.  Summary: How do running on an iMac and a MacBook Pro to locate and use the catalogue of pictures of LR

  Located on a portable LaCie Rugged hard drive?  I don't know that I placed the catalog where it should not be lost on the path to the catalog. I need to give specific instructions to the computer and I don't seem to be able to do.  Thanks for any help you can give.

  GCR49... I think you are making things very difficult for yourself.

  Why don't you start by putting your photos on the EHD, creating the catalog on the pictures on the EHD? In this way, you don't have to transfer the pictures later to SMT. In addition, file-> new catalogue allows you to create a catalog on the EHD.

  Do not... Are NOT... do multiple catalogs. "Subsequently, with much more practical, experience and focus I can decide to multiple catalogs if necessary" is a very bad idea, except in a very limited situations. Do not forget this.

• How to resize / stretch XIB controls in the catalog?

  OK, maybe this is a silly question, but I simply can't understand!.

  What setting should I put in XCbode Interface Builder (using XIB to the catalog, no Storyboard) to have a repeating control / resize with parent control.

  Setting the option left / right in the dock just option autoresize left or right, it is not stretch it.

  For example, in the simple Hello everyone, I want the box to stretch with the size of the window main and the label and button to stretch in width. This should be so simple.

  

  Welcome to the wonderful world of constraints.  Control-drag between two user interface elements will give you a list of constraints to choose from, allowing you to define the relationship between the objects.  See using Xcode or Apple Auto layout Guide for more information.

  Alternatively, you can disable the automatic layout (in the file Inspector tab) and use the old shock absorbers and springs.

• How can I open disc catalog to view the catalog once the CD in the CD/DVD drive?

  Original title: I have Windows XP. Service Pack III

  1. I received a disk catalog; How to open until you see the catalog once the CD is in the CD Driver?

  2. I decided to get a new rower because mine is old; 11 yeaes HOW to uninstall all my software before as I have donate to charity? I will give them the OEM disk for this computer.

  1. I received a disk catalog; How to open until you see the catalog once the CD is in the CD Driver?

  If nothing happens when you put the CD in the drive, go to my computer and double-click on the icon for your CD drive.  This will open a window of Windows Explorer showing the files on the CD.  If you think that there should be a sort of slide show or any other presentation, look for a file named "Setup" or similar, and then double-click that.  For more help, provide more details on the 'catalog disk,"including she comes from and what you think you're supposed to see this topic.

  2. I decided to get a new Tower since mine has 11 years; HOW to uninstall all my software before as I have donate to charity? I will give them the OEM disk for this computer.

  The answer to this question depends on your answers to the following two questions:

  a. do you care if you make a donation to the computer with no operating system or other software installed?

  If the answer to (a) is 'No', you need to do is:

  • Copy all your documents, photos, music, and other data to another computer or storage medium (e.g., CD, DVD, USB flash drive, external hard drive, "cloud storage", etc.), and then
  • Download Darik Boot and Nuke, create a bootable CD, put it in your CD drive and restart the computer to completely erase the hard drive.  You will need a CD burner (able to write CD CD player), a blank recordable CD and burning software "ISO".  For the latter, I suggest ImgBurn or you can use CDBurnerXP mentioned in the FAQ of DBAN section (both applications are free).

  If the answer to (a) is 'Yes', then

  b. What is the "OEM disc?  Please provide all the information which is printed on the face of the CD.

• SEARCHING the catalog Microsoft Update don't miss some updates that meet the keyword?

  I want to clean install windows 7 and add all updates up to now since SP1 in some computers in offline mode, so now that I turned to the Microsoft Update Catalog.

  I first searched Microsoft Update catalog with the keyword 'Windows 7' and then sort the result of "overhaul". As shown in the half superior of the image below, the last update to is born on 7/12/2016.

  Then, I searched with 'windows 7 Internet explorer' and Moreover, sorted in order to exclude updates for IE 8 ~ 10. The result is displayed in the lower part of the image below.

  Surprisingly, some updated 8/8/2016 updates are released, whose name has also key words "windows 7"! What does it mean? When I searched "Windows 7", not all updates of fitting are listed! Even more recent updates are missing!

  Microsoft Update Catalog is reliable? How can I get what I need?

  

  Rather than using the catalog, install the cumulative hotfix that contains all the post SP1 updates. Instructions are here:

  Microsoft releases the package of rolls for windows 7, which contains all the post Service pack 1 updates

  The latest cumulative package can be found here:
