Lightroom :: Defining The Location Of The Second Copy?
Jul 28, 2013
`I have recently upgraded from Lightroom 3 to 5. One of the triggers for doing this was getting a Canon G15; and the fact that my previous workflow didn't work for the CR2 files that it produced. (Previous work flow [Mac Mini ... a bit creaky now, running OS 10.7.5]: Use Nikon's importing tools to import photos to folders & create back up at same time [external drive] Use Preview to select & just do basic editing if needed [e.g. cropping]), import (add, rather than move/copy) to Lightroom - though often I'd wait for a bit & do quite a few groups at at time, especially if Preview was ample for what I wanted to do at the time. While the Nikon import tool was fairly agnostic about JPEGs, it naturally didn't recognise the CR2 files
The Canon software wouldn't create the backup files that I liked. I've also experimented with Image capture, but again, no luck with creating the backup
So, on the upgrade to lightroom 5, I have started to look at using Lightroom (though it takes forever to load compared to Nikon / Canon offerings). I have now discovered, however, that the backup that Lightroom does creates folders named "Imported on 28 July 2013" - rather than the 2013-07-28 folder structure that I use elsewhere. I can't find a setting to let me create the backup folders based on the same structure as the main import.
(The only option I can think of at present is to use Carbon Copy Cloner & run it daily on the regular destination, unless others have other ideas ...)
[Time Machine runs, but I also want to have the photos in a way I can easily access them from Windows etc., as well as Mac. And I'm a bit of a back up freak. I like plenty of the things. Just In Case]

I have a brand new ASUS notebook Win 8 64 bit.
LR4.3 installed to the C: drive (default installation). I am now copying from my external drive all photos to the larger D: data drive.
Of course, I have the very latest catalog backed up to multiple places. The old laptop (Windows 7) was just a single C: drive instead of the two drives I now have.
2 Q: 1) To what location do I copy that backup LR4 catalog?
2) As I remember from some years ago, I also need to double-click on that LR4 catalog once it's in the proper place. Is that right?

Lightroom 5.3 stopped Importing photos and videos. Error message appears "Could not copy a file to the requested location."
I uninstalled and reinstalled LR 5.3. Problem still occurs. There must be residual problems not cleared out by the uninstall.

I store my images on an external hard drive. I recently upgraded from LR 3.6 on a windows XP machine to LR 5 on an iMac. I moved my catalogue fine, I think, as I can see all my images in LR 5 on the iMac. The problem is that I suspect there is some problem between the iMac and the external hard drive. I cannot import my RAW photos from my CF card into LR and onto the external hard drive. LR tells me "could not copy files to the requested location."
Is there some problem because I changed from windows to Mac? Problem bc I upgraded from LR 3.6 to LR 5?

So when you copy and then paste a selection, photoshop almost always pastes way far away from where I copied. Why does it do that and how can I make it stop? I commonly need to be able to copy something and then paste in the exact same spot.

We have upgraded to AutoCAD Mechanical 2012, and I am having a little trouble finding where AutoDesk has relocated a few of the 2009 commands.
Where is the new location for Copy With Base Point? I used to go EDIT > Copy With Base Point.
I am enjoying a lot of the new features of AM 2012. It will just take a while to get used to where everything is at.

I have a two layer image:
layer 1. background
layer 2. A transparent vector layer with text
I have a second image, the same exact size and resolution as the first two layer image. I would like to paste layer 2 from the first image, into the same exact position on image 2. Every time I paste. it centers the text, whether it is just a ctrl-v, or a paste layer. I've even tried promoting the layer 2 in the first image then pasting as new layer into image two, with no luck. Everything I've done pastes layer 2 from image one, into the center of image 2.
I have PSP Photo X2

When copying a symbol (control c) then pasting (control v) I can move the symbol to another location and left click to drop it. Many times when I do this the symbol disappears and you can't see it. If I re (regen) the the entire model disappears. I can close out the drawing then open it back up the drawing has been restored and the symbol will be at the location that I had placed it at. With the same drawing, I don't have these problems with 2012.

I import a path from illustrator into photoshop the path is in tact but when I right click on a selected path to define a shape the created shape only contains the outside edge and not what is inside the shape. I have tried to edit my preferences in Illustrator to preserve paths.

I've created my own defined patterns in photoshop CS and looking to transfer them across to another pc with photoshop on. I've looked in the presets at file size and changes but theres nothing.
Do any of you clever people know where my defined patterns are, my photoshop is installed in the default location.

Everytime I go and try to define a pattern, i normally make the pattern pictures big, but everytime i try to make them smaller in the "Pattern Overlay" thing they get blurry,
When I click the pattern I want, by default it puts the full size image first:
Although, when I try and when i try to scale it down, this is how it gets!

Photoshop Elements 6 (20070910.r.377499)
I do not know why the catalog has changed the file location of "ALL" pictures to the location on my backup drive.
Example: K:My DocumentsMy PicturesPetsPICT1460-1.JPG
The actual location of the original photo is: D:My DocumentsMy PicturesPetsPICT1460-1.JPG
The location of "My Pictures" is on my primary Hard Drive D:My DocumentsMy Pictures
Why is Photoshop changing all of my 37,000+ photo thumbnails to point to my Backup Drive K:?
I need to correct the catalog file. How do I make the correction and stop it from happening in the future?

How do I take an Illustrator object and save it as a custom shape in Photoshop 7.0?
I know in PS6 you paste the vector shape as shape layer, then edit>define custom shape. However this is not working in PS7.

I've looked all over, and can't find what I'm looking for. It might be a feature that doesn't exist. Is there any way to "define" a color as transparent? It would be easier on me than erasing the pieces that I don't need.

I use all my knowledge of technical drawing from school many years ago to produce drawings in AutoCAD 2002, but I can't remember how you would define the dimensions of an ellipse in a drawing so that someone could produce it from the plotted output.

I am attempting to create a seemless pattern in illustrator cs5 with a logo a customer provided. I have looked through several tutorials and read most everything I can about the process but seem to be running into a strange problem. I make the pattern like all the lessons say with a rectangle with no fill or stroke set behind all the elements I want in my pattern. When I deifne the pattern it doesn't just include the objects inside the square but also the parts of the elements that leave the square. If I am understanding everything correctly thats not how its supposed to work. I am using illustrator cs5 on mac os x. Here is a screen shot. Back ground square really has no stroke or fill. I am only coloring it in so you can see the example.

wall trying to export GPS coordinates. Here's the situation:
Lightroom 4.1 Camera (Canon) RAW imported from camera directly to DNG (no location info present) Location added via Map module, and additional metadata (Title, Caption, Keywords, Copyright, etc...) added Save Location not set to Private Export Metadata settings "Remove location info" is NOT checked (i.e., do not remove it)
I export to JPG and the location is not present. Flickr cannot see it, and I load it into Photoshop and examine the metadata and location is not there. I have also used some other online tools to verify it is missing, as well as Geosetter. If I set it in Geosetter, the data is then there. However, Lightroom 4.1 is just not saving it, and I have scoured all the settings looking for any other options.
This is crucial to my workflow and I'd prefer to do as much as possible inside LR and not have to use external tools.

I have a large number of images from a trip ( 10,000+) . So far I have colored coded 2 locations with blue & green. Now obviously I can filter by either color & view those images. Is there a way that I can see all uncoded images. That is filter out the blue & green so I can browse the uncoded images only? For example I would like to add a filter (red) for another location then not show the blue green or red.
Just for your info I do this as a gross filtering prior to ratings or collections. I am thinking that this would allow me to whittle down the images & make it easier to go thru. Using LR 3.5

I have my photos stored on my network drive and my office computer. Initially I started editing my photos off the network drive, mainly because I hadn't realized the location I had chosen. Now I'm having trouble with my network drive going offline intermittantly, making editing a chore because I keep getting "unable to locate file" messages. My question is, can I start using the same photos, which are stored on my office computer, and not lose the edits I have already made?

I have successfully opened a STEP file from our Engineering group and saved it away as an Inventor Assembly. I would like to define Materials and/or Surface finishes for all parts. Why wouldn't the Surfaces and Materials synchronize between the Styudio's Surface Creator and the BOM Materials Control in the Assembly area?
I have found the way to define a new Surface in the "Inventor Studio" Interface and saved it with a unique name. Now, I would like to assign that Surface as a Material to the parts in the assembly ... and of course I would like to define numerous other surfaces and materials for assignment to all the parts throughout the assembly. Finally, I would like these surfaces / materials to follow the model into Showcase for presentation purposes.

I'm an Inventor 2011 user and I'm writing a Ilogic script to update an assembly. For this I want to use a variable in a name.
For example d1 till d10 will be given the value 25.
Is it possible to define "d" combined with a variable "n" . The script should be something like this:
n=1
for n<11
dn=25
n=n+1
end
