Where are my old catalogs?

I just changed my PC.  I use Windows 7 and just installed LR 5 but was previously using LR 3.  I stored all my data on an external HARD drive.  This folder and file access to get all my old catalogs downloaded in my new LR 5?

Thanks for your help.

You can double-click it and LR should open, or you can start LR and use file / open the catalog and then go for it.

  • Where are my old site definitions after the upgrade?

    I just upgraded from 5.5 to the 2014 CC and now in Dreamweaver CS, none of my site definitions are here. What I have to start from scratch creating sites for all my sites and I can import them somewhere? Thank you.

    It's pretty simple to put on the sites...

    1. open the old DW

    2. Choose Site > Manage Sites > highlight sites > Export

    3. This will create your site settings .ste files

    4. close the old DW and open DW CC 2015

    5. go on the Site > Manage Sites > Import to import the .ste files

    My computer crashed two weeks ago and all software had reinstalled in another HD. The first hard drive still has all the files and are readable. Where can I find the old catalog fall back all my work?

    My lightroom was great before the crash to work and I have a lot of work still pending.

    You will need the catalog file and all your images. If you have also stored your images on which crashed HDD you will need to copy them as well.

    The default location of the LR catalog file is in your user name folder in the folder on the ROOT of the drive users

  • my photos on an external drive. my catalog is also stored there, (in the case where I have to change computers. where are stored my backups to the catalog? (can't find them!

    as noted, my pix is on an external drive (pc), my catalogs are on the same drive. where are my backups being stored i cant seem to find them. If I open the folder lightroom with the name of the catalog on the outside, all I see is a bunch of files labeled 1,2,3, etc. and has, b, c.

    shouldn't there be a folder labeled bacvkups?

    If you have enabled the option to make catalog backups (you?) then your backups are in any case, indicate when the backup dialog box is displayed when you close Lightroom. If you enable the option to make backups of catalog, then you have not all backups.

    Yoou can use the search function of your operating system to find the files on all hard disks that have a name that ends with. LRCAT to find all possible backups.

    Note: the functionality of catalog in Lightroom backup makes a Backup of your file to catalog only. He doesn't have backups of your photos, you have to do it through other methods.

    Note: backups SHOULD go on a different drive than the originals; you make a terrible mistake if you put them on the same disk as the original.

    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

  • Where are my purchases?

    Watch iTunes to load on the old iPad today, I noticed that not all of my purchases are there.

    Example, I bought Eddie Stobards 'Trucking Songs', and some time ago were all there NOW, I have only a 'track' where are the rest iTunes knows that I bought because it tells me when I go to the store, BUT where are the tunes?

    I noticed other purchases have tracks 'missing' in a position to help someone?

    One possibility is that these songs are no longer for sale on the iTunes Store in your country.

    Another possibility is that they were purchased on another account.

  • Where are my photos in Time Machine?

    I use the Photos app to save my photos. When I click on the Photos app in TM, all I see is the front sheet so to speak of the Photos, not my photos app.  Where are they in TM, or aren't?  I got rid of iPhotos long time cos he's old.  Please notify.

    If you back up your library of Photos with Time Machine, then your photos are in the library of Photos in Time Machine - you do not directly access their (or anything else) in the TimeMachine backup - you must use Time Machine to restore the things of a TM backup - use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple Support - http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html

    After that restoring your library, you can access Photos using - do not forget to restore to another location so that you don't overwrite your existing library

    This is not different for iPhoto Photos - or any other program - it's how TM

  • I use "from Internet Explorer' to store my new Favorites, but they do not appear in my 'Favorites' - where are they?

    When I changed my IE7, Firefox (and I'm very glad I did) I migrated my large list of Favorites (which was divided into subsections to make it easier to find items) to Firefox Bookmarks. I continued to bookmark web sites, I added to the sub-headings in "Of Internet Explorer" I can easily find. However, when I wanted to copy on my laptop, I discovered that the only "favourites", I can find it on my PC are the old favorites IE7 - none of the additions made in Firefox were there. Similarly, the bookmarks toolbar, which I use now is different from the toolbar Favorites always accessible from my Windows Explorer.

    Where this information is stored in Firefox so I can copy?

    My OS is Windows 7 Professional.

    You can read places.sqlite without specialized software that understands the format.

    If you want to create shortcuts .url on disk in the style of favorites of IE, the best thing would be to have in reality IE creates them for you by import of your Firefox bookmarks. There is actually a support article on this: export Internet Explorer Favorites.

  • I compacted my messages. Messages from 17/01/2012 to 01/04/2012 are not in my Inbox and I didn't remove them where are?

    Out Look express

    I compacted my messages. Messages from 17/01/2012 to 01/04/2012 are not in my Inbox and I didn't remove them where are?
    Two reasons the most common for what you describe is disruption of the compacting process, (never touch anything until it's finished), or bloated folders. More about that below.
     
    Why OE insists on compacting folders when I close it? :
    http://www.insideoe.com/FAQs/why.htm#compact
     
    Why mail disappears:
    http://www.insideoe.com/problems/bugs.htm#mailgone
     
    Recovery methods:
     
    If you are running XP/SP3, then you should have a backup of your dbx files in the Recycle Bin (or possibly the message store), copied as bak files.
     
    To restore a folder bak on the message store folder, first find the location of the message store.
     
    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.
     
    In Windows XP, the .dbx files are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in the Solution Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder options | View.
     
    Close OE and in Windows Explorer, click on the dbx to the file missing or empty file, then drag it to the desktop. It can be deleted later once you have successfully restored the bak file. Minimize the message store.
     
    Open OE and, if the folder is missing, create a folder with the * exact * same name as the bak file you want to restore but without the .bak. For example: If the file is Saved.bak, the new folder should be named saved. Open the new folder, and then close OE. If the folder is there, but just empty, continue to the next step.
     
    First of all, check if there is a bak file already in the message. If there is, and you have removed the dbx file, go ahead and rename it in dbx.
     
    If it is not already in the message, open the trash and do a right-click on the file bak for the folder in question and click on restore. Open the message store up and replace the .bak by .dbx file extension. Close the message store and open OE. Messages must be in the folder.
     
    If messages are restored successfully, you can go ahead and delete the old dbx file that you moved to the desktop.
     
    If you have not then bak copies of your dbx files in the Recycle Bin:
     
    DBXpress run in extract disc Mode is the best chance to recover messages:
    http://www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/default.aspx
     
     
    A general warning to help avoid this in the future:
     
    Do not archive mail in default OE folders. They finally are damaged. Create your own folders defined by the user for mail storage and move your mail to them. Empty the deleted items folder regularly. Keep user created folders under 300 MB, and also empty as is possible to default folders.
     
    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

    http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 
     
    And backup often.
