work with LR on 2 computers

I use creative photography of cloud and I just bought a second computer (laptop with an external drive).  I want to be able to view and work with all the pictures on both computers. I'll travel with the notebook and perform preliminary processing on a trip.  How can I synchronize the libraries on both computers?  Thank you

Lightroom is designed as a single-user, single computer system. The catalogue between computers sharing requires some jumping through hoops.

The easiest way (not the prettiest) is to put the pictures and the catalogue on an external drive, then move the disk from computer to computer depending on the needs.

Eventually, you can use the 'export catalogue' and 'import from catalog' orders to move the changes from one computer to the other.

Copy the catalog from one computer to another via your local network can work OK. Photos of synchronization can be a long process.

Some people find this file sharing services like DropBox and OneDrive OK to work for them; others find it does not work as desired. Some of these services work well with files randomly updated as do the database files. However, copy of the catalogue to and from the sync folder while never using the catalog in the sync folder works OK.

My recommendation would be the external hard drive, followed by a manual copy via a local network.

  • T410 AiO customer CAPS, NUM, and scroll keyboard stop does not work with PCoIP view desktop computers

    We have problems with our t410 AiO customers, where the CAPS, NUM and scroll stop lights on the keyboard do not work with view PCoIP desktop computers.

    I found the below information and a work around:
    If you use the Protocol PCoIP to display on a client system Ubuntu 10.04, the CAPS Lock, NUM Lock, and Scroll Lock lights on your keyboard do not work with desktop view. Although the lights do not work, the keys themselves work.
    Solution: Set the following configuration in a configuration file, such as/etc/vmware/config:
    mks.keyboard.useXkbSetNamedIndicator = 'TRUE '.

    The problem is this difficulty is already in place via the latest version of the HP, Z6A440, software that is installed within our Organization.

    What I discovered, is that the model that we initially bought for the test doesn't have this problem.  However, the models that we ordered since that time, DO have the problem and the solution above does not work as expected.

    The model originally ordered for test is still a customer of IOA t410... but there are 4 "under models' for customers of IOA t410... that we have to test is a H2W20AA, while those we receive and distribution are the H2W21AA model.

    No idea why, when connected to the desktop from view, that models of H2W21AA have this problem?

    H2W20AA is with Teradici PCoIP optimized, which can support PCoIP better, but H2W21AA is not with Teradici. That's the difference.

    However, the issue that you are experiencing does not matter in fact, we have not heard of this problem before. I would suggest that you do the following to see if there is no change:

    1. Go to download the latest VMware View 2.3.4 for t410, follow the instructions to install.
    2. If suggestion 1 does not work for you, try to connect to another VM group or set up a new machine virtual clean
    3. Call HP service center to save your problem for further investigation if the suggestion above did not work

  • How can I work with LR on two computers and maintain synchronization?

    I y fotos and lightroom installed on your desktop (MAC). As I travel a lot, I would work on my laptop (MAC) will receive realize but then sync my work with my office when I get home.

    Ho do I do?

    Unfortunately, Lr does still support the synchronization of the catalogues. However, you can place your catalog on an external hard drive that is connected to the computer of your work at any time. Many Lr users find this approach is quite simple to manage. Alternatively, you can keep a copy of your catalog on both computers. This first part of this video using Lightroom on two computers - YouTube described describes how. If you use Lr5 or higher, then you must actually copy the actual photos that Smart previews can be used a proxy files. Intelligent previews are much smaller, so much more effectively to carry photos around on the laptop.

  • can a cell phone work with my counter top prepaid... I want to buy a laptop & want just a re-payment for her more my computer desk top can my ISP allow me to use pre paid usb with two computers...

    can pre-paid work with the office for example 2 computers and portable usb...

    THX in advance

    The dongle is normall work on ANY Windows XP (SP2) or higher OS - whether on a desktop, laptop, netbook or Tablet - simply plug it into an available USB port and follow the instructions that come with it.

    Your ISP does not need to know anything - but it is much cheaper to use focused on fixed-line broadband that the dongle-based, generally speaking, so I would stick with the landline for your desktop, unless you have a fault on the line.

    All the dongles are based on usage - here in England you can get 1 GB prepaid for £10, 3 GB for £15 and 7 GB for 25 books on my ISP (and refills are valid for 28 days so you lose any unused allowance). What is the where you are I have no idea. Be aware that many providers expire your SIM card, if it is not replenished for a period of time (3 months, I think, for mine)

    Contract dongles can be cheaper - and have quotas of similar (or better) use.

  • Third monitor does not work with Eyefinity more

    I am trying to run 3 monitors on my ATI HD 5770

    I have two computers that, for years, have worked with several thin monitors... until very recently.  Through all my updates to the OS, they continued to work.  I don't remember exactly at what time each card has ceased to power its third monitor.  Each of my "third monitors" would come on periodically until they all finally stopped.

    All monitors are working fine as I juggle the cables and adapters each refreshes and lights up but not all at the same time.

    Here's what I have available for troubleshooting.

    I have two Mac Pros below.  (OS 10.11.6) on one and (OS 10.7.5) on the other.

    Each tower has (2) 5770 cards installed that each have a DVI and 2 mini ports.

    So I have a total of (4) cards and is starting the new one that I got on ebay last week.

    I have LG E2350V 23 "monitors (6) and (3) 22" ACER monitors

    All my cables are active and I have several active adapters

    I just bought some passive extra and many very active adapters to the experience and trouble shooting with.

    Thanks in advance for the help and time!

    DisplayPort and its variant electrically identical but small size Mini DisplayPort and the implementation which is a subset of Thunderbolt, any differential use (push-pull) of signals pilot very low voltage. They are MORE immune to noise than old methods because the signal is encoded on the difference between the two signals, not a single signal referenced to a "everybody" on the ground. If possible, you must connect all screens with DisplayPort [full-size] or Mini DisplayPort. These put a lot less load on your system.

    When you convert this very low level signal to an "inherited" display, the map is short of ability to directly signal levels in the car high enough to be recognized after connection of TWO monitors legacy of any kind. If you choose to use a DVI or HDMI port supplied directly, that still counts as one of your two "free" conversions (It is also possible that a very fussy display is moved even earlier).

    All display "legacy" beyond the first two requires ACTIVE description adapters. Adapters ASSETS contain re-drivers of signal and are therefore more expensive than ordinary adapters. Typical prices are of the order of $ 40, but competition has lowered some prices slightly. Mini DisplayPort has a descendant-comparability mode requested by the regular cards, who can get to produce a Single-Link DVI signal to up to 1920 wide, but a regular adapter not pushed the signal levels.

    The Apple Mini DisplayPort to DVI Dual-Link, which is used for DVI displays wider width of 1920, is more complex and expensive and requires extra power beyond all signal re-pilots. This power is usually taken on a tail of pig USB, USB data are generally not used by the adapter, so a different USB power source can be overridden.

  • How do I open the .snp with Microsoft Office 2007 files is installed? It works with MS Office 2003, but not with MS Office 2007!

    I have MS Office Pro Plus 2007 is installed on my computer. I also MS Office 2003 is installed on a different computer. Snapshot viewer is installed on both. My snapshot of work files works with MS Office Access 2003 but not recognized by MS Office Access 2007. It would allow me to save them either! Is this a problem with FireFox (3.6.8)? However, I have no problem, open them using IE7/8 on both computers. Any ideas? Thank you.

    I heard about other problems with Office 2007 to 2003, but most of the people do not have Pro/business versions with access, so maybe there's a previously unnoticed problem.

    As indicated in my previous post, I don't always understand how you try to access the file. Can you right click and "save link as" to download?

  • M200: Processor only works with 600 MHz - why?

    I noticed that when you change a pcb for a laptop regardless of the speed of processors it works to the slower which is 595/598 MHz.

    What is the solution?

    If the processor is to have 256MB / 512MB RAM this custom of things affect a large but for 1 GB & 2 GB the machine's performance becomes very problematic.
    I tried the update of DMI, it has not helped.

    Also I'm not very sure about this problem with a report any with pcbset change.
    With the right machine, I found the way that is switching dynamically from bios processor capabilities.
    In some machines that give problems I have not observed this option in the BIOS.

    Hello

    This problem occurs after the change of motherboard. Usually after mainboard change it is very important to bring tests and diagnostic procedures. Without this procedure, the CPU works with fixed 600 MHZ.
    You should contact Toshiba service to resolve this problem of CPU.

    I can buy this SODIMM Infineon HYB39S256800T-8A, and I heard that they only work with Toshiba laptops.

    They have been tested with Tecra 9000 and no problem, and with no computers Toshiba there are any errors.

    I have Satellite Pro 4300, they will work with it?

    Maybe someone a piece of support for a Toshiba for this memory.
    I asked Infineon, that they do not have the specifications for answering my question.

    Thanks for any help.

    You will be very happy if someone has the same laptop model and quite the same module of RAM. Buy and test it with your laptop. If it won't work not return. End of the story.

    The person who wants to sell you this RAM should be able to give a list of compatible laptop models. In any case, I recommend you to use compatible Toshiba or RAM Kingston modules. Both are tested and you'll get a high quality product.

  • Apple TV Airplay works with a MBP, not others

    I have two McBook Pro. Both perform exactly the same version of OS X: 10.8.5.

    The difference is, my ATV 3 appears in the menu bar of one of my Mbps, the mid-2012 and does not appear in the menu bar of my other (Late 2008).

    In 2008 there is one, in System Preferences, under 'The front', a checkbox (checked) that says "see mirroring options in the menu bar when it is available."

    But there is no familiar black triangle in the menu bar.

    However, on my MBP for 2012, in the same place, above the box I have the option "Airplay mirroring" and a drop down menu for, without doubt, regardless of the Apple TV, I want to use. The black triangle is in the menu bar.

    My Apple TV works with this computer, not the other. All three are on the same network. As far as I know, all the preferences on both computers are identical.

    I've seen many threads frustrated on this problem, which many have not been solved, but I have the advantage of having two computers that run the same systems to test.

    Now... What's going on here? I notice the silence of Apple on this issue has been deafening. Fortunately, cela solve for me would be convenient, not essential, because it seems to be with several disgruntled users.

    This document says that MacBook Pros (Early 2011 or later) support AirPlay. The 2008 is just too old.

  • I can't get any printer work with Windows XP too more.

    I can't get any printer to work with my computer which uses Windows XP.  I checked with the companies of the printer and it is not a driver problem.  In addition, these printers all work on other computers that use Windows XP.  In addition, they worked on my computer for years until a few weeks ago.  I have been informed by the technicians of the printer who checked my computer to verify that it was not a 'driver problem' that there is a problem of Microsoft XP. It seems that the part of XP that runs the divers feel is corrupt.  The print job will go to the print spooler, but it is never sent too the printer.  Anyone has the clues how too fix this?  Y at - it an XP patch that might do the trick?  Also, I tried a "System Restore" in several places and it was not fixed.

    Choose a printer and work to get this working.

    In the windows printers and faxes, you see a printer that is in line with a status if "ready" and are able to print a test page (right click, properties, print the Test Page). "

    If there is a jam in print job in the queue of XP, nothing will be printed until the jam is cleared.

    To clear the print queue, stop the print spooler service and delete all the jobs/print pending.
       
    You cannot delete all print jobs in the queue so that the Print Spooler Service is running.
          
    To stop the Print Spooler Service, click Start, run and enter in the box:
           
    services.msc
           
    Click OK to open the Services Applet.
           
    Locate the Print Spooler Service, right click and choose 'Properties' and then click on the "Stop" button to stop the Print Spooler Service is running.
       
    The option "Startup Type" of Service properties print spooler is usually set to "Automatic" (which is now a good time to check it out).
       
    If the "Startup type" is not set to "Automatic", set the "Startup type" to "Automatic" If that is your desire (which now is the time to check it out).

    Do not try to start or restart the Print Spooler Service immediately.  You must remove all print jobs backed up first...
       
    Then, delete all updates pending upward and forward to printing from XP.  If they do not print before, you will need to send the to the printer again.
       
    Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the following folder (assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive):
       
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\PRINTERS
           
    Delete all the print jobs in queue (select and delete all the files) in the folder if the folder is without waiting for print jobs.  The folder must be empty when you are finished.
           
    Reboot your system and check the Print Spooler Service again to make sure the Print Spooler Service restarts automatically restart (given that the startup type is set to automatic).
       
    After the reboot, check again the Spooler Service for printing and the 'Status' column for the print spooler must be read "started."

    See if you can now print a Test Page.

    Submit new failure of print jobs.
