Lightroom :: Moving A Book Between Two Catalogs?

Aug 16, 2012

I have 2 machines: one is a Mac and one is Windows. Each has a copy of the photos (identical directory structure) and its own lightroom catalog.

All the individual photos/xmp are perfectly syncronized.
 
If I create a book on machine A, can I copy it to machine B?

How? Export as catalog without the originals/Reimport? Does it work for books?

Lightroom :: How To Have One Photo In Multiple Catalogs

Jun 24, 2013

I have a catalog for personal photos, and another for stuff I will print, etc. I just imported all my photos into my print catalog from a trip, and was wondering if some of the photos can be in both catalogs. I have a few pics of my wife and I, and since they are just virtual copies would like them in each one.

Lightroom :: Search Multiple Catalogs?

Oct 12, 2012

I am splitting my LR4 catalog (which contains over 150,000 images) into yearly catalogs for performance reasons.  The big issue is how will I ever find anything if I don't know what year an image was made?  Is there a catalog of catalogs?  Or some way to index everything?

Dec 13, 2012

I'm using multiple catalogs (one for each client).  Is there a way to transfer watermarks from one catalog to another or  do I have to build them from scratch in each catalog?

Lightroom :: 5 - Can Sync Keywords Across Multiple Catalogs?

Jan 2, 2014

I have several Catalogs, and, of course, the keyword lists are different for each, as they're embedded in each separate Catalog.
 
I have different versions of the same images in multiple Catalogs (suits my workflow), and would like to sync keywords for these images across Catalogs.
 
I tried Export Keywords from Catalog 1 and then Import Keywords into Catalog 2, but that results in a lot of duplication of keywords, as the hierarchical structures differ. Obviously, this method is not syncing but simply adding all the keywords from Catalog 1 as if they didn't exist in Catalog 2.
 
I thought to delete the entire keyword list from Cat 2 but this will remove them from the images as well - leaving me to redo the whole thing; not what I'm after!

I wasn't aware of using keywords and can see how useful they can be.I have more than one catalog and am having a hard time accessing all my photos. I'm thinking of uninstalling Lightroom and starting from scratch using only one catalog.

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?

Lightroom :: Save Plugin Information Across Multiple Catalogs?

Jan 6, 2014

I prefer using multiple catalogs rather than 1 large one, as I prefer to organize via event/date. The issue I've encountered is, that every time I create a new catalog, I have to reenter my information on the flickr plugin, and assume that all the plugins work this way. So simply, is it possible to enter the login info the 1 time, and have it load for every catalog? The other option I can explore if there is no simple fix for this issue is to edit the existing flickr plugin, the biggest issue with this however is that the 1 in SDK 5.0 is now outdated/unuseable and the plugin installed is a single file and not multiple editable lua files.

Lightroom :: Page Caption Text Won't Flow Into Multiple Columns / LR4 Book Module

Mar 22, 2012

I'm in process of creating a photobook using LR4's Book Module. Whenever I create a multiple columns page or photo caption, the text won't flow from the 1st column into the succeeding column.... The multiple columns feature however does work for normal text placeholders.

Lightroom :: Unnecessary Page Limit For Blurb Book In Book Module?

Feb 25, 2014

I am in the process of making a photobook using Lightroom and discovered when I reached page 240 that I couldn't add any additional pages, much to my surprise.  I was surprised because I knew from Blurb's website that the limit for standard paper is 440 pages and mistakenly assumed that this limit would also apply within Lightroom.  I did more research online and found many others being surprised by this limitation after spending hours and days on a photo book.  I will likely work around this by exporting from Lightroom to .jpg and uploading to Blurb, but that will take extra time and effort and reduces the appeal of using Lightroom to create a Blurb book.  I had also tried exporting from Lightroom to .pdf only to find that the .pdf format exported by Lightroom is not compatible with the requirements of Blurb.

Lightroom :: Why Does Book Not Upload To Blurb From 4.2 Book Module

Oct 29, 2012

I am trying to up load a 40 page 12" x 12" photo book to Blurb from the book module in Lightroom 4.2.  It renders the pages and then having rendered the cover gets stuck, about 50% to 60% through the process. None of the photographs are starred or colour coded. I have uploaded successfully from this iMac in the last few weeks.

Lightroom :: How To Get A Book From Collections To An Active Book

Feb 14, 2014

I purchased Lightroom 5 and am creating a photo book through Blurb.  I accidently erased 38 pages, so after I re-created them, I clicked on Create Saved Book, which put it in Collections.  Now I am trying to work on the book again, and can open it, but when I go to the Library of photos, Lightroom automatically repopulates a new book with all the photos in that file and won't let me put them in the book I saved.  How can I get this partially finished book so that I can use it?

Photoshop Elements :: How To Migrate Multiple Catalogs To Another PC

Dec 31, 2013

I have bought a new PC. On my old PC I have PSE 10 with three catalogs. To move these catalogs (with several thousands of photos), I have followed the instructions in the help page: [URL] ......
 
So, I made backups of all three catalogs to an external disc. I then connected the external disc to the new PC and started to restore the first catalog. That went fine.

Then I restored the second catalog. That also went fine. But then I discovered that the first catalog had disappeared.... I expected that in the menu where you can switch catalog, both catalogs would be shown. But it only showed the last catalog that I restored.
 
To make sure, I tried to restore the first catalog again. Again that went fine. But now only this catalog is there, and the other one is disappeared again.
 
How do you migrate MULTIPLE catalogs from one PC to another PC?
 
I do not know whether it is relevant: The old PC is running Windows 7, the new PC is running Windows 8.1.

Photoshop Elements :: Multiple Catalogs And Missing Images

May 1, 2013

I have several overlapping catalogs in my elements 10. The largest is coordinated with the online backup (which is due to be terminated). It has over 400 missing images that cannot be reconnected via the online backup. Some of the wayward images may be in one of the other catalogs or a download to the external hard drive from the online backup (done last year).

1. How can I merge the several catalogs, and should I?
2. How do I search the the file in the external hard drive? I.e., how do I designate this file in the "browse" dialogue box for where to reconnect? I can navigate to it, but then what?

Photoshop Elements :: Can't Process Multiple Files On One Of Three Catalogs

Nov 11, 2012

After getting straightened out about getting my catalogs in order, which I've done, I've run into another problem. I have three catalogs one for People, one for Things and one I call Workplace where I try out things that are new to me so I don't mess up my main catalogs.
 
I've straightened out the files in my Things catalog. I have one catagory that contains images of autograph book pages from the late 1800s. Those scans were done in JPEG some time ago. I've tried using multiple processing to change these 55 images to psd in the original file to be consistent with the rest of the catalog. Each time the process fails.
 
In order to see what the problem might be I have copied the catagory file into both of my other catalogs and have been able to process the catagory file back into itself as psd. I have also created another small file in the Things catalog and tried to convert it and had the same result. The warning info box that appears when copying back into the same file states that the original files will be overwritten. The psd files do not overwrite the jpg files. They are added to the original file. That may be the way it is intended to be. That's not a real problem.
 
The real question is why can't I process multiple files in the original catalog. I have looked at the error file and, although I don't know much about most of it, I found the following in the first part of the file.
 
crash exception="EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION"
 
I run XP SP3 and PSE 8. I am a single user with administrator rights. I find no mention of a  permission filter in the PSE 8 program.

Photoshop Elements :: 9 - Restoring Multiple Catalogs To New Computer

Mar 20, 2014

I currently am using Elements 9 with Windows 7. I will be getting a new computer with Windows 8.1. I have 5 catalogs. All are backed up on external hard drives. I plan to install Elements 9 on the new computer and then restore the catalogs. The catalogs are in chronological order. Should I restore them in any particular order, and if so, should I do the more recent catalog or the oldest one first?
 
I guess I should also ask if Elements 9 will be compatible with Windows 8.1.

Lightroom :: How To Add Preset To All Catalogs

Oct 16, 2013

I recently learned  using presets  in LR.  I currently use LR5.2.

I recently installed a few third-party presets to LR.

I am very happy with the performance of these presets.

Here is a problem:  I have many LR catalogs.

Is there a way to install all presets  to catalog whenever I create new one (just like a default preset) and also to old catalogs?

Lightroom :: Deleting Old Catalogs

Feb 11, 2014

When I delete old copies of LR5's catalog off of my backup external drive, I leave the 3 most current.  For some reason the next time I start LR, it cannot find the catalog, and I have to manually point to the backup, since I know that one is current.  I'd assume the one in My Pictures is current also, but for some reason I keep getting this error.

Lightroom :: How To Delete Old Catalogs

Dec 28, 2011

I have several versions of my catalog due to "updates / upgrades" of the catalog.  I believe this happened as I added plugins and it would tell me I needed to update my catalog.  Is it safe to delete the old ones?  Will I lose any data?  These haven't been accessed for quite some time.  See screen shot.

Lightroom :: Moving Catalogs From PC To Mac

Nov 15, 2012

I recently converted to Mac from pc, and upgraded from LR 3.6 to LR 4 at the same time.Apple transferred all of my pc files transferred to the Mac, and then I downloaded the LR upgrade. That may have been a mistake, as all of the 3.6 catalogs remained on the PC.  How do I get the 3.6 PC catalogs into the new version on the Mac? I'm thinking that perhaps I should uninstall LR, have Apple repeat the data migration, and then reinstall the LR 4? Or, is there another way?
