Virtual copies are not synchronized in a second Lightroom Catalog even if the metadata are written in XMP and synchronization with the metadata has been selected
Dear community,
I use a Mac with 5.7 of Lightroom which is configured to store all the metadata in the xmp files. The Lightroom Catalog is stored locally on the Mac and contains only references to images and their xmp files that are stored on a network device. There is another Mac with the same setup with a local separate Lightroom Catalog and access to the same images on the network device.
At a starting point, the two Lightroom catalogs are identical - they refer to the same images on the network device and contain the same metadata.
When I update the properties of the image on the first Mac, these changes are reflected in the xmp file. After using the option 'synchronize' with activated "metadata synchronization" on the second Mac, the modified image properties are visible on the second Mac. It is very good.
However, when I create a virtual copy on the first Mac, I realize that the corresponding xmp file is updated. However, even after the synchronization, the virtual copy is not visible on the second Mac. I can change the properties of the image of the original image and get these changes replicated to the second Mac, but the virtual copies remain the first Mac.
What should I do also virtual copies get synchronized?
Thank you very mich for your support.
Best regards
Peter
However, when I create a virtual copy on the first Mac, I realize that the corresponding xmp file is updated.
As far as I know, xmp does not contain information about the virtual copies. If this method to attempt to synchronize two catalogs will not work.
Better you should use the file-> Export catalog on a single computer and then file-> import from another catalog on another computer.

Virtual copies are stored in the backups? How can I insert a backup in an existing catalog
I deleted a tif image file that I didn't intend, which had several virtual copies of LR, created from it. Virtual copies had a lot of history important that my impression of the preparation of changes to the document. These virtual copies are saved in the LR backup?
If so, how can I insert in the catalog that I use? I did a lot of changes in the two days since my last backup and don't want to lose this story either. Are you suggesting that I do a backup current prior to extraction of files since I last saved? I know I'm supposed to go to the backup location and open the last backup, but how work with the work during the last 2 days?
Any help would be most appreciated. Thank you, TomHuff says:
This may have been a mistake
It was, but not catastrophic.
Photos in Lightroom are defined by a database ID, not a file name, so you cannot rename them in order to be considered of the same picture as before.
So, theoretically, if master and virtual copy pictures are in your backup, you should be able to import all of them (copies of masters and virtual) - make sure that you remove first did re-imported in your catalog and make sure the name of the source file for tif on disc is identical to the front.
Huff says:
- The section has new Photos, which gives 2 choices of file manipulation: a) add new pictures to the catalog without moving them or b) not to import new photos
- Replacement of A changed existing pictures of the article with 2 options: a) nothing or metadata (b) and develop the power only. If you choose this option you can check a box to preserve old settings as a virtual copy.
1. a) add without moving
2. I thought you were only to add backup photos which no longer exist in the catalog (current) target, in which case it should be no replacement.

LR 6 - the search for virtual Copies will not work
I exported a few photos to a customer including some virtual copies where I converted to black and white.
But when the customer sends the pictures, I have a text string which has the names of files and the virtual copy file name, IE. Flower-0001-2
However I insert this string into the search field, but the virtual copies do not appear.
I could export the virtual copies and add them back in the catalog, but is there another way to get the search to pick up these filenames on the first shot?
Yes it works for me now except if there is an easier way. Thought I'd share how I did it.
(1) I export, add to the catalogue and in another file and download all the photos on my wordpress site.
(2) customer selects the Favorites and I get an email that contains a text string (this text string includes all the masters and vc file names)
(3), I then take this text string copy and paste into the search field on this new folder, I created on export.
(4) all customer photos they have selected appear. Fact.

Until a few days ago I was able to print a PDF from Acrobat Reader ms in Windows 7. Now I get "the document could not be printed." The next panel says "there are no pages selected to print," even if all the pages have been selected. I've uninstalled Reader and reinstalled, but the problem remains. I also tried to repair the installation and that doesn't work anymore.
Thanks for the tip. It turned out that kind Reader has been commissioning in protected mode. I changed the setting and it prints now as before.
Thank you

Nope... I'm not confused.

Original title: error reading from a photo cd
Error message "Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD. The disk has been created in a way that the player does not support"when the disc is inserted into the PC HP Touchsmart yet he plays on the laptop. Help please
Hello
(1) what is the file format of the photos on the CD?
(2) you are able to play another CD/DVD on this computer?
(3) have you made recent changes to the computer before the show?
(4) is it a Blu - ray disc?
Install the codec for Blu - Ray. Your Blu - ray player should have come with a medium containing the codec. You can also use your favorite search engine and free research Blu - ray codec.
The Blu - ray disc format is not supported in Windows Media Player. To play a Blu - ray disc, you must use a non-Microsoft program that supports Blu - ray playback and a device that can play Blu - ray discs.If you have a program that supports Blu - ray, then I suggest you to use the Troubleshoot utility and check for the issue.
You can try the following methods and check if it helps.
Method 1: Play a CD or DVD in Windows Media Player
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/play-a-CD-or-DVD-in-Windows-Media-PlayerMethod 2: Types supported by Windows Media Player files

I'm trying to scan a doc and the message is 'not found computer. Ensure that the HPsoftware has been installed on the computer. My computer print very well so I do not know why it does not scan.
Hello
Thanks for the information. Two things to try. First of all, try to align your print cartridges using the controls on the printer display panel. As part of this process, the printer will print on a sheet of alignment that you place on the printer and scan in the printer. See if it works successfully. If not, see the following page: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02451000&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_r1002_usen_c-001_title_r0011 .
The second thing to try is the print and Scan Doctor Utility, download here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=mp-114642-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=4063&product=5061082&sw_lang=. Its a standalone process and requires no explanation.
Let me know if one of them fixes the problem.
Kind regards

I get an error msg when I try to open a file using adobe reader software. Error States: Adobe Reader could not open ' heels 2014 001.exe bmp because it is not a supported type, file or because the file has been damaged (for example: he was sent as an attachment to e-mail and has not been decoded correctly.).
I tried to send an email with attachments 44 and would not send the email. Ever since I tried to send this e-mail, I have been doing the error msg.
Anyone know how I can get this to work for me again?
Thank you, any help is greatly appreciated.

The file you are trying to open is (you can see from the name) a BMP, PDF files no file. Adobe Reader can only open PDF files, just so stop trying to open it with Adobe Reader. The app, users of Windows for BMP files is painting.

Several files have been created and they are on my desk. When I try and open the files I have Adobe Reader could not open 'hs_err_pid14036.log' because it is not a type of file supported or because the file has been damaged. What can I do?
It seems to me that your system file associations are out of step and must be properly configured.
First, you will need to know what to use to open these files. Then you can Google how to set the file associations for any operating system you have and go and put them in the correct application.
As to why they are generated, not sure, but not something from Adobe.

Software Adobe reader could not open 'example.pdf' because it is not a file type supported or because the file has been damaged... I act not I have a problem with the 11.0.0.379 version that I have used before and I think that this problem of due before 11.0.9 version and is on the later version, including the "Adobe reader DC" the workaround that I opened the PDF file of the file in Notepad and delete the text in the top starting by <? XML 1.0 encoding and save. This fixes the problem on small files, but it does not work in larger files... How should I solve this?
If you generate files with anything before % PDF, these files are faulty. It is never allowed, but player used to tolerate it for compatibility with an obscure format Mac.
