We have about 10,000 + personal photos.  Can I install the LR Database on my server so that my wife and I can both be adding metatags to the photos at the same time ?  I don't mind if I have to buy 2 copies, but I am more concerned about sharing the database.

Lightroom :: Sharing V4 Catalog With Multiple Users On Same Windows Machine

Jul 19, 2013

I just started out using Lightroom 4 for managing family photos. What I want to do is to share the LR catalog so that my kids and wife can access the database from their own accounts. I tried sharing the directory with the catalog and all the photos. But when I open lightroom from my kids's account, I keep getting an "unexpected error openning the catalog".
 
I am using Windows 8, 64bit

The catalog was created in my account (adminstrator)

the other accounts are normal accounts
 
I have searched around but all the questions ask about sharing on network drives. But I just want to share the catalog on the same machine on local harddrive. I made sure that all the other lightrooms are closed in the other accounts (everyone else is signed off) before I tried to open it from my kid's account.

Lightroom :: Catalog And Apple Open Directory Users

Aug 26, 2013

We are attempting to run Lightroom in our photo journalism classes and we are unable to setup the application because it will not create the Catalog file. 

All of the users in Open Directory have their OSX 10.8 home folder stored on our Apple Server. This enabled them to log into any of the computers in the lab and have access to their data/documents.

Lightroom refuses to create the Catalog file because it treats the home folder as a network folder.

My predecessor found some way around this in the past but he didn't document it and I can't find any evidence of it either.
 
Surely there are other people out there trying to use Adobe Products who also utilize Apple's "Open Directory" (its like apple's version of Active Directory).

AutoCAD Inventor :: Share 3D Models With Mac And Linux Users

Feb 6, 2013

We are using Autodesk Inventor for our 3D modelling and we are working together with a group of scientists.

Those people would like to see our models, rotate them, take measurements, change the visibility of parts or subassemblies and maybe even make cross sections.

It works quite well with the Design Review program, but unfortunately our scientists mostly use Mac OS or Linux. Running Design Review under a windows emulation is not an option for our big models.

Lightroom :: Multiple Users On Same Computer?

Jul 2, 2012

I recently purchased an iMac, along with Lightroom 4.  My daughter would also like to get into photography and photo editing.  Is there a way to keep her lightroom library separate from mine? I'm thinking into the future where she will have her own Mac and wondering how hard it will be to transfer her lightroom library. I would like to store her pics on an external drive as well.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Best Method - Share Sheet Sets With Isolated Users

Jul 18, 2012

I have a SheetSet of a wastewater treatment plant that contains 70 sheets fully developed.  The SheetSet incorporates Sheet Views, ViewLabels, and View Callouts as part of the SheetSet as well as Fields in the standard titleblock for Sheet Title and Sheet Number.  A Sheet List Table created from the Sheet Set is used as the Project Sheet Index.

There are Structural and Mechanical (HVAC) drawings that require design subcontractor review and editing.  These design subcontractors will make their own edits to our existing drawings.  They are outside our office and have no direct digital connectivity with us.  It is most likely not possible to provide them connectivity to our project file storage space for non-technical reasons.  (i.e. it may be technically possible but not possible for other reasons not under my control.)  Their knowledge and proficiency with Sheet Sets is unknown.

What is the, or is there a, best method for accomplishing coordination of our Sheet Set with the subcontractor edits under these conditions?

If digital connectivity between our offices is possible, what is the best practice / scenario for Sheet Sets with that setup?I'll need to send the files to these subcontractors or establish connectivity in the next few days!

Lightroom :: Merge Multiple Instances Of Same Network Share?

Nov 21, 2013

In my (large) Lightroom 5.2 (Windows) library I have three instances of, essentially, the same network share (a Drobo NAS) which appear separately in the library.
 
One appears as Share (\nas) L:, one as \nasShare and one as \nasshare. The contents of the share are spread randomly across the three - so one might contain the folders seriesevent1, seriesevent4 and seriesevent5 and another seriesevent2, seriesevent3 and seriesevent6.
 
Is there an easy way to convince Lightroom that they're all the same physical location and merge them in the library? No amount of dragging, dropping, importing or synchronization seems to have had any effect so far!

Photoshop Elements :: Sharing A Catalog Between Users

Apr 8, 2013

Just returned to PSE after a gap of several versions.I MacBook Pro, two users (both admins) and several cameras. I want one (and only one, at present) catalog that can be accessed by both users of the MacBook so that each user has access to all of the pix
 
I Installed Elements and added a few photo's to a folder in the root of the hdd, and tinkered a little. Discovered that the auto-created catalog was buried in the user/username path, not appropriate for multiple users, I thought.
 
So backed up catalog to external drive, then restored it to the folder that I'd previously added the photos to, viz HD/ALL PHOTOS/My Catalog. This works absolutely fine for me, as I set it up.
 
When the other user starts Elements  and goes Catalog Managent and browse to Other Locations: HD/ALL PHOTOS/ and is able to select 'My Catalog' and Open. She then gets the message "The catalog could not be opened. It is either corrupt or the version is out of date"
 
Both usaers have R&W permissions. Both users are definately pointing at HD/ALL PHOTOS/My Catalog.

Photoshop :: Can Multiple Users Use CC On Same Computer

Sep 15, 2013

My daughter has an account on my MBP and needs to use Photoshop for her Photography class.  This wasn't an issue with Photoshop CS6.

However, with Photoshop CC, it is asking her to purchase a Photoshop CC subscription.  Is there any way she can just use Photoshop CC from her account on my laptop?

Lightroom :: How To Import Multiple Catalogs Simultaneously Into One Catalog

Nov 28, 2013

I would like to import multiple catalogs simultaneously into one catalog.
 
The thing is that I lost my main catalog in a hard-drive failure and my last backup is too old. Fortunately I always "export a folder as catalog" into the original pictures folder, so I always keep starring, color editing, etc.
 
What I would like to do now is to import each of these litle catalogs into one new main one, without having to import each at a time, but all simultaneously, which would save me an enormous amount of time.
 
Is there a way to do this?

AutoCad :: Multiple Users Versus 1 File

Mar 14, 2013

issue, more than 1 user needing to work on the same file. Of course this can create problems, like time mangement or users creating their own copies of files which leads to confusion about revisions etc.

I've looked into the possibility of using 'shared' files which updates edits made from multiple users but so far a solution has proved elusive. The only thing I found is called CadVault, but I don't think this does what I would like.

I got the idea from using shared Excel documents and it seems to work well, and IMO, CAD is the typical kind of application that requires this kind of manipulation, but I've never worked for a company that uses such a method. I'm baffled by the lack of information / support for this, unless I'm overlooking something.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Multiple Users Opening The Same IPT File?

Jun 19, 2013

We are currently using Inventor 2013 without Vault and I discovered that multiple users can open the same IPT file at the same time with no warning message or read only access like we get in Autocad. We have 6 designers all using the same Project that is a single user project. We normally don't have more than no person working on the same part or assembly, but it did happen. Two designers opened the same file to make separate changes not knowing that the other was in the file. Not until one of them went to save the file did he know someone else was also in the file. When he went to save the file he then got a warning - "A later version of this file has been saved by (user). Saving the file would overwrite changes, which is not allowed. If you wish to preserve your changes, use the Save Copy As command." In Autocad if you try to open a file that someone else has open you get the warning right away and are forced to open it read only or not at all. Is there a way to set Inventor to do the same thing? Other than using Vault and having to checkin/checkout every file. Our six designers work on an average of 50+ parts per week and many times have multiple files open at the same time to use as reference. Also the shop floor opens our files to use for programming and asking them to checkin/checkout files would not be received well. The shop floor has "read only" rights as determined by our network. Does our network settings determine if more than one person can open the same file?

Revit :: Multiple Users - Create Local File Tab Is Grayed Out

Sep 12, 2013

We have just installed a new server at work. We have transfered all of our Revit files to the server and resaved them as central files. We cannot seem to create more than one local file per Revit file even though we have already set up the file as a worksharing file. The one that sets up the Revit file is the only one that can create the local file. For the other user the create local file tab is grayed out.

Lightroom :: Keeping Color Labels On External Drive With Catalog For Multiple Computers

May 6, 2013

I currently have my LR 4 libriaries and catalogs on a external drive that i can transport between my laptop and office mac.  The only issue I am having is when I color label photos on one computer it does not show up on the other computer.  Is there a preference for this?  It is the only thing I can't figure out and is frustrating after rating them on one computer and then not having them later on the other.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Should Multiple Views Xreffed Into Single View Share Base Construct

Oct 25, 2011

I have several different views xreffed into a single view, should'nt they all share the base construct?  i.e. If I want to overlay the lighting plan, HVAC plan and my reflected ceiling plan- they should share the first floor construct.  Instead each one brings in the same base construct and then when you overlay them, the walls interfere and you get wall errors.

Illustrator :: CS6 Hangs Saving Files To Local HD - Multiple Server Share Points Mounted

Jun 12, 2013

Mac OS 10.6
Illustrator CS6
 
Illustrator CS6 hangs (spinning beach ball) when saving files to the computer's local HD while having multiple server share points mounted.
 
I am NOT opening or saving the file to or from a server. The server is mounted so that I can move my saved file to it once complete.
 
Unmounting the servers fixes the problem and Illustrator CS6 returns to being normal (not causing a spinning beach ball).
 
This is repeatable, not intermittent.

Lightroom :: Welcome Screen Appears For All Users?

Jan 22, 2014

I'm installing Lightroom 5 in a classroom of Macs with OS X 10.9. When another user logs on a to computer and starts Lightroom, Lightroom welcome screen pops up again and asks for country, and in next screen displays the serial number Lightroom was activated with. After pressing OK the user can proceed to use Lightroom. How to avoid the welcome screen from appearing to all users? Obviously we can't have the serial number leaking out to public like this. Luckily this came up while testing the installation.
 
The registration file seems to be in a correct location (/Library/Application support/Adobe/Lightroom/Lightroom 5.0 Registration)

Lightroom :: Sharing Catalogs With Other Users / Macs?

I know that LR isn't set up for sharing over a network, but I need to have different staff accessing the catalog from different computers at different times. I would like to store all the photos on a Drobo NAS, keeping the catalog on a desktop. Then create a mirror image sync of the catalog on different computers using chronosync.Users will not be accessing the ctalogs simultaneously.

Lightroom :: Can Update Catalog On Laptop And Then Transfer Updates To Master Catalog On Desktop

Jan 13, 2011

I don't want to have the original files on both laptop and desktop.
 
I want to make a copy of a Lightroom 3 catalog to put on my laptop so while on the move I can be geo-tagging and keywording to 8000 photographs. I don't want to drag an external drive with me. I just want to be able to work on the catalog metadata and have all the updates/changes stored there (on the laptop)(in the catalog) and then transfer the catalog back to the desktop (to the primary archive) and have all the updates/changes pushed back into the DNG's or the XMP sidecar files alongside the CR2's. These changes would be only keywording and possibly writing GPS data into them….NOT image edits (that would probally require access to the original image files)
 
As a test, I tried "exporting as catalog", TWO images (with the source images "unavailable"). I flash-drived the resulting catalog to my laptop. I opened the catalog in LR3 and made changes to the metadata. I tried both "saving metadata to file" and "updating DNG previews" (which would be useless anyway since I could not write data back to the missing originals) and also tried doing nothing and just closing LR,  then pulling the flashdrive and plugging it into the DESKTOP.(knowing the changes are stored within the catalog itself only) I open the 2 picture catalog in LR and see the keyword updates. Hurrah!
 
I switch over to the master catalog. All I want to do is import the updated metadata (keywording, contrast, etc…) back into the master catalog and push the data into the original DNG or XMP. On import I select "replace: Metadata and develop settings only" (with or without "preserve old settings" checked) and click import. Voila! NOTHING HAPPENS and the updated keywords are NOT picked up.
 
I know that the metadata updates were carried out because they showed up when I opened it separately in LR! For some reason they don't seem to making through the import process to the master catalog…
