Lightroom :: Putting Catalogue In Creative Cloud Folder To Use For Multiple Computers?
Jun 13, 2013
Putting a Lightroom catalog in the Creative Cloud folder to use for multiple computers? It seems like it should work well for photographers who are on the road a lot and would like to avoid merging catalogs after each trip.
Id like some tips on how to manage my catalogues so that i can use them on diferent machines. Im happy to keep all the images on external drive and have LR catalogues and cache files in a folder on that drive too. Can i just plug the drive into another machine running another copy of LR?
I have been forced to check under the hood in LR due to the fact that I have lost a big chuck of my keywords, and I'm contemplanting if its worth importing a copy of my backup copy. I am debating if I should just go back and re-enter all the missing keywords, or retrieving a backup copy. However, I read somewhere that its wise to change the name of the master catalog before retrieving a backup copy.
However, I found multiple folders of my catalog in my master folder. I'd like to know which one should I delete without causing any major collateral damage.
1- folder 176-2.lrcat created 3-26-11 2:51 PM 289 MB 2- folder 176-2-2.lrcat created 2-12-13 10:32 PM 363 MB 3- folder 176-2-3.lrcat created 2-24-13 5:24 PM 287 MB 4- folder 176-2 copy.lrca created 3-26-11 2:31 PM 179 MB
In addition, there are corresponding Previews.lrdata for each folder.
Having cleared cookies/cleared history in safari. Tried firefox, still does not work. Opening Photoshop after downloading from creative cloud still does not work.
Message reads "Error Starting Creative cloud" cookies dir: cannot make folder/ cookies: Permission denied. (error 13).
no matter what i try, Creative Cloud pops up and has the list of apps but lightroom 5 is nowhere to be found. i just bought Photoshop CC, and Lightroom 5. I had the trail for photoshop cc, and i believe i have the full version of it now. but light room 5 isn't even listed as an app.
I just signed up for the monthly membership to CC and downloaded LR and PS, both downloaded ok. PS is working but when I went to register the LR I get finished and it gives the error "assertion failed".
I have used LR 3 on this computer, but a few months ago it stopped working and I had my son uninstall it from this computer, so I am not sure if that has anything to do with it.
Why can´t I publish pictures from Lightroom to Creative Cloud with LR Publish Services?The only reason I bought a Creative Cloud membership was because I assumed it would work seamlessly with Lightroom publish Services..
i recently purchased creative cloud and found out that my camera is not supported in tethered shooting ... how do i add my camera model so i can shoot tethered
LIGHTROOM 3.3 REINSTALLATION PROBLEM. I had an operating system problem with my pc. A friend took an image of my disc. I have the computer running again now but I dont have any of my Loghtroom edits. I was advised to get a .lrc (or something) file but that only had a copy of the very first backup that I did. I didn't backup using the Lightroom backup that pops up when closing te program. How can I retrieve all my edits, it amounts to many, many hundreds of hours work?
Shouldn't I be able to save my Lightroom Library to my Creative Cloud Files account? I understood this is done from the Sync button in the Lightroom Library.
I was on the Adobe website, when I saw this Black Friday deal for Photoshop CC and Lightroom 5..Upon clicking Join now, I got to the following page : From this page, I then read both the FAQ and the terms.The FAQ said the following :
So in everything I read regarding this deal, there was nothing stating that I had to be a previous owner of CS3 or above.So I placed the order with my credit card for the monthly subscription.When I received my order email (in french), the product says the following :
Votre commande en détail : Programme de photographie Photoshop (Pour les clients CS3 et versions ultérieures)
In effect, this is suggesting that it’s for clients that already had CS3 and above.My plan on the creative cloud adobe website also suggests the same. The only time I was made aware of this need to already own CS3 or above was after I placed the order.
As a result, I am not able to download Photoshop CC or Lightroom 5 from within the Creative Cloud client.I think due to this mis-information on the Adobe website as shown above, I should still be entitled to this offer.I will contact Adobe sales support to see what they can do.
When using lightroom on my PC I download the images to an external hard drive. When I am away from home can I use lightroom on my laptop and down load images to the same external hard drive and process them and have lightroom on the PC locate them when I return home.
I am travelling to the UK and wish to export my photograph collection as a catalogue to my laptop (without the original photos) and work on organising them, deleting unwanted photos, etc and then reimport the catalogue on my return. My question is this - if I delete a photo whilst on my laptop, on reimport into my main computer will lightroom then go and delete this photograph from my original collection as I hope it will do?
I do not want to re-develop 1000+ photos in lightroom.
Cleaning up my photo directory, i started consolidating and moving folders around in my HDD. However in doing so, I also accidently removed one of the 'catalog folder' in my Lightroom (so the original photos are still there in the physical folder, but i can't see it anymore in Lightroom). Now if I try to import the folder back into Lightroom, all my developed settings are lost (i.e. everything reverts back to the original settings).
I tried using the Find Missing Photos function and the Sychronize Folder function, both does not work with my problem. Unfortunately, my catalog backup is also a week old, so that wouldn't have my recently developed settings?
Any way to retrieve the removed catalog folder with all the previously developed settings?
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.
Is it still possible to get CS6 without Creative Cloud? I have CS4 and was going to upgrade to CS6, but then it changed to a subscription basis. As a nonprofessional, passionate hobbyist who gets no income from his photography I can't afford to pay the monthly costs of CS6 Creative Cloud. Or will I have to switch a competing photo program, which admittedly won't be as good?
we recently upgraded our creative cloud software from V6 to CC, since doing this our printer has refused to print grey scales. We have had an engineer in and he say the printer / copier is fine, and ran a number of grey scale tests to prove it.
Due to security reasons, I tried to enter my Photoshop CC through creative cloud and it prompt me to change my Password. Unfortunately since changed carriers from ATT to Comcast, my ATT email no longer exists therefore, when they sent the instructions to make the change I just couldn't retrieve it.
I always get the infamous phrase that another group responsible for the change will get in touch with in the next 24 to 48 hours. Well... it's been two weeks now.
I attended Photoshop World 2013 in Las Vegas. All attendees were given a free year of the Creative Cloud. I installed it on my laptop and am trying to install it on my desktop computer. I was told that I could have it on two computers.
The first time I tried to download it I got a message that stated that an administrator would have to do something. What do I do?
I'm trying to install Photoshop on to my imac 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo running Mountain Lion (10.8.4) from Creative Cloud but get a message 'You are running an operating system that Photoshop no longer supports. Refer to the system requirements below for a full list of supported platforms.'
When I try to use any software I am getting message that I am not logged ino my CC cloud account. When I try I keep on getting the message that there is a server error and I should try again later.
