Photoshop :: Allow Write Access To Existing Photo Images On WD External Hard Drive?

Apr 6, 2013

I recently switched from Windows Vista to and iMac and I'm trying to edit photos in Photoshop CS6 and it won't let me make changes or edits to the photos stating that it can't allow me "write access" to save the changes? Where is the lock up? Is it in the external hard drive settings? In the camera? In the files themselves?

Lightroom :: Lost Adjustments When Move Images From Hard Drive To External Drive

Mar 1, 2012

I moved images from my harddrive to an external drive.

I opened Lightroom.

Noticed there was a question mark by the photo folder I needed.

I synchronized the folders. Nada.

I rememebered I moved the images (first line ^^)

I re-imported the images from the external drive into Lightroom.

These images (other than one that was marked previously with a blue label) look completely untouched - completely original files - even though I spent hours working on them.

I am glad the images weren't deleted BUT re-doing 600 images will be a MAJOR FAIL if I can't figure out how to import the images with the settings / developments I did beforehand.

Lightroom :: Why TIFFs On External Hard Drive Converted To CR2 Files

Jul 26, 2012

I've been using Lightroom 3 with an external hard drive for a few years now with no problems.
 
I shoot raw with my Canon t1i and jpg with my Canon SX-10.
 
Just last week I hooked up my external hard drive and Lightroom wouldn't connect to it. Usually when I hook it up, Lightroom opens up automatically. At least it use to.
 
I looked at the drive and it seems the tiff files are now called CR2 (Canon Raw I think). Why this happened and is there a way to get them back to where Lightroom will recognize them?
 
I can open them in Photoshop, but not Lightroom. I usually go first to Lightroom, then to Photoshop and back. Can't do it know though.

Lightroom :: 3 / 4 - Cannot Delete Files On External Hard Drive (Mac OSX Lion)

Mar 7, 2012

Lightroom can't send items to trash when deleting files on an external drive if the trash bin is empty for the relevant drive on OSX Lion. This was in LR3 and now in 4. You can get round this by making sure the trash is not emptied after deleting a random file or folder but there has to be a better way!

Also it seems to be a lightroom problem more than OS as Bridge can delete the files with no problem.

Lightroom :: External Hard Drive - Could Not Copy Files To Requested Location?

Sep 6, 2013

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?

Photoshop Elements :: How To Move From (recovered Data External Hard Drive) To New Computer

Computer 1's hard drive crash and all programs and data were recovered professionally and sent to me on an External Hard Drive.  Computer 1 was on Windows 7.  I can fun the program off of the External Hard drive fine, when connected to my my new Computer.  I click on the .exe file and it pulls up the catalogue as it should.  All off of the recovery drive.

The new Computer, is on Windows 8.1.  How do I get the Adobe Catalogues moved/copied to the new Computer?  

I redownload Adobe 10 onto my new 8.1 Computer from the Adobe website.  Using the new download, I was able to open the Catalogue on the External Drive (F).  Cannot find a way to "relocate" the Catalogue to the new computer.  The pictures have already been copied to the new computer.

Lightroom :: Connection To New Destination Lost - Photo Files Transferred To External Drive

Oct 2, 2012

Since transferring my photo files from my hard drive to an external drive(without telling lightroom) I have completely lost all connections between lightroom and the new destination (my external drive). There is no sign of anything at all in Lightroom. It shows 0 photos, my preferences seem gone, and it is as though I have just loaded up lightroom for the very first time. Do I need to start from scratch and reimport my photos or is there some way I can retreive/reconnect the photos so I have the edits I have already made?

Photoshop Elements :: Accessing Catalogs And Files From External Hard Drive

Jan 31, 2013

I have successfully carried out a trial back up of an Elements 6 2000 picture catalog from an XP based PC, using the Elements 6 full back-up process. This process is intended to be used eventually to transfer this and other catalogs onto a new Windows 8 PC installed with Elements 11.
 
However, in the interim I would also like to be able to access the picture files and the catalog data on the ehd from a Vista based laptop which also has Elements 6 installed. How to do this without carrying out a full restore process that would load all of the files onto my laptop's hard drive.
 
In transferring the picture files to the end I also seem to have lost the original file structure that was on my PC, as folders have been renamed numerically and are all held individually in the main folder of the end. Whilst this doesn't matter too much whilst the files remain on the end, provided the catalog still know

Lightroom :: Adding External Hard Drive?

Nov 27, 2012

My HDD is getting full and I want to be prepared for when it happens.
 
I want to add an external HDD. From what I have read already, I am supposed to import the photos to my new drive, no problem with that. I also don't want a new catalogue.

Question. Let's say the newly added extenal drive is not connected and i want to search from some pictures, let's say of my one son, Gideon. But I know I have pictures of him on both drives, will LR tell me to connect the external drive also? Does it keep track of where my pictures are in such a way that it can tell me which drive to connect, should it happen that I later on have 2 external drives?

Lightroom :: External Hard Drive Not Recognized In 4.3?

Jan 10, 2013

I have two external HDD's connected to my laptop. I'm using one LR catalog - it is stored on my laptop's SSD.
 
One external drive (Drive 'A') contains my photo archive - all of my photos. The other external drive (Drive 'B') is a mirror; a duplicate copy of all of the content on the first drive, incase it ever fails.
 
Q1: Why does LR only display drive 'A'? Even though both drives are on, connected, and working, only drive 'A' appears under the Folders tab. My concern: If - in the future - drive 'A' fails, I need to understand why LR isn't recognizing drive 'B'.   Q2: On drive 'A', I right-clicked on the highest level folder in my heirarchy and chose 'Synchronize Folder'. New photos were imported, and old photos were removed. I also made some additional edits to photos on this drive. If drive 'A' ever fails and I need to switch over to my mirrored drive (Drive 'B'), do I also need to right-click on the highest level folder and choose 'Synchronize Folder'?

Lightroom :: Where Did External Hard Drive Folders Go

Feb 17, 2014

I use lightoom everyday, editing images from multiple external hard drives. These hard drives appear as their own folders, but today they are gone. Only my Macintosh HD is listed under folders. I can get to all the images through the Mac HD folder, but I am wondering why my hard drives are no longer listed as folders. They are not offline or missing.
