You need to move a lot of photos! Help

I have about 550 GB of RAW files (with sidecar) that are stored on a Windows Home Server. He starts to get some age on it, so I need to move. I need to use the LR5 to move from the WHS to another computer on the same local network. What is the best way to do it? The whole thing catalog is a little confusing for me, so all my pictures are saved by the precise address of the job.

Like this. What would be the best way to do this?

Move photos in your operating system, keeping the structure/hierarchy even (do not re - organize things right now)

Then, follow these instructions: http://www.computer-darkroom.com/lr2_find_folder/find-folder.htm

  • You need to move folio associated application already released to another machine.

    Hello

    I need to pass a folio to the machine for a new designer.

    The associated application is online on the iOS app store.

    What is the best practice for moving the files sources and folio to a new machine, maintainging the opportunity to update our iOS app?

    In future versions will you be able to export files in folio, to import? Should this be done on cloud instead?

    Thank you!

    Richie

    What version of InDesign are you using? If you the designer of the source use InDesign CS6, simply package files and transfer them. If the designer was using CS5/CS5.5, the person transferring the files needed to package the files and manually add all active overlay that wan't included in the package. When the target designer receives the files, he or she must check the overlays to ensure that they are still targets.

    Once the transfer is complete, the new designer should open the folio in the Folio Builder Panel and use the command to recreate a link to create a link to the articles to the new location of the source files. You can learn more about this process here:

    I have a lot of photos on my PC and want to download them to a DVD. What type of DVD that I need and how do I get this pleasae?

    Good reading this guide - http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/how-to-copy-photos-to-a-cd-or-dvd-using-windows-7s.html which gives the basic idea.

    If you want to burn the permanent backup disks get cheaper discs of 'R '.  If you want to reuse the disks later get the disks 'RW '.

    It will be useful.

    PS - Its value in two copies as a double backup and store them in other places - just in case. Especially since the discs is not expensive.

  • Do you need to be on the same account of WiFi for phone and Mac that allows you to delete photos?

    When my Macbook Pro is on the WiFi and my iPhone 6 s + is on cell phone, I noticed that if I delete the photos within the program of Photos on my Mac they do not get deleted from my iPhone. However, a few hours later when I get home and check my phone, and I'm on Wifi for both devices, the photos have disappeared. Do you need to be on the same account of WiFi for phone and Mac that allows you to delete photos?

    Thank you.

    Devices can be on different wifi networks.

    Your question is that the phone will not be synchronized using cellular data and will wait until it connects to a wifi network, but this can be any wifi network.

  • I need to "Confirm" or "Are You Sure" to move files.

    I want to get Vista to 'Validate' when you move a file or files. I also want to be sure that it always asks to "confirm."
    When moving, deleting, copying, or opening. I use a laptop with a _Miserable_ "Toutch Pad"

    Thanks for any info,

    (The 4PeteSake...  Laptop, Vista, I'm in a hot car frying by the public library of...  Choose another name for the 15th time...

    Sorry, but this cannot be the exception for deletion (which should already be in place) with Vista.  It may be possible to write scripts with modifications to registry to accomplish the tasks, but this is beyond the scope of these Windows forumss responses (and you need to be a programmer knowing extentive Vista coding, coding of registry and the scripting language intended for use - if it is even possible with all these things you).

    I recommeend you get a USB wireless mouse to replace the touchpad (this is what I did) if it gives you this much trouble.  I also have problems and move to the mouse solved and now I wouldn't consider without the mouse.

    I hope this helps.

  • I did a major photo cleaning in the Mac Finder, and now have a lot of photos not coupled in Lightroom 6. Can I start a new catalog and import from the Finder now-cleaned? Thank you!

    What do you mean by 'photo cleaning?

    Your photos are not 'in' Lightroom, the pictures are on the hard drive and referenced by Lightroom.

    If you did that move the folders autour, simply tell LR where you move them to in the folders Panel.

    If you have moved around individual files, simply tell LR where you moved their library in the grid.

    Import a second time, it is almost always the right answer to each question. However, if you really want to do this, you can create a new catalog (menu/file/new) and do an import using the option 'Add '. Note that this will lose all your changes to previous photo.

    The files must be legal DVD or still to retranscode them. If so, it will use "automatic" (in which case it should adapt), or settings you have applied.

    Look at assets in the project Panel and columns for the status of transcoding DVDs and transcoding DVD setting. What did he say? Or better, post a screenshot.

  • realization of a film with lots of photos and some videos

    Hi all

    I'm planning a video with lots of photos in quick succession, interspersed with a few short videos.  I'll probably have a few hundred photos and maybe half a dozen of the footage.  The stills are all 12 mega pixels in their original resolution; they come from three different cameras and are a mixture of the guidelines portrait or landscape.  The clips come from a Canon point and shoot, or an iPhone.  The final video will be 720 x 480.

    I use CS6 (Photoshop and Premier Pro especially at this point) on a Mac Mini running OS 10.7 (Lion).

    My questions are:

    1. is there a way to change the default length that a still is displayed in the timeline panel.  Right now the default length is 5 seconds, but I'd like to change that about 0.5 or 1.0 second.  I don't want to change the display time of each that I place it in the window of the program.

    2. is there a complete way to select all the files I want, their re - sample at the correct resolution and drop them in my project folder.  Photoshop offers batch processing, which does not seem useful for my purpose, and an image processor, that meets my needs almost except that I can not only select files, entire folders.  I guess I could move all the files I want to use in a separate folder and then use the image to resample, processor etc.  It is the most efficient workflow?  Can the images be resampled in Premier Pro directly?

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    1 default preferences/general/Still Image.

    2 batch resizing is done in Photoshop, something PP can't do.

    PP can reduce the stills to 100% when using framesize suitable scale, but you're still stuck with the 12 mega pixels for each again.
