View 2 RepliesIs it possible to change the default location for backup files to somewhere other than the folder in which the original file is located? Ideally I would specify a single location for all backups and tell Carbonite and my nightly mirror/sync application not to copy that folder.

Is it possible to hide this in the project by any way?
I am using Revit 2013 student version. I have successfully attached a decal on one of my walls and managed to show a realistic mode of the decal in my elevation. I would like to remove the decal lines (rectangle with x inside) but I am struggling to do this.
I have done some research on the web and so far, found out that I need to select the decal lines (or cross), right click and choose Override Graphics in View > By Element, and check Transparent. The problem is, my system does not display the option for Transparent; I am only given the boxes for Visible and Half-tone.
Is there a way to hide the lines between areas created via the split face tool? If not, my end goal is to have an area on a surface appear a different color than the surrounding area, with no lines between. The surface is the face of an extrusion in an in-place family.

Is my image backup plan fundamentally flawed? My lightroom catalogue refers almost exclusively to RAW files, but for each file, once I've done the required edits, I "export as DNG" to make a backup which has the edits embeded in. I prefer to use RAW files as the main file but I save the backup as DNG just to save a bit of space)
However, if I replace a folder of RAW files myphoto1.CR2, myphoto2.CR2 with a folder of DNG the equivalents myphoto1.dng, myphoto2.dng then not surprisingly Lightroom shows the files are missing. (At this point all I'm doing is simulating a backup recovery). I can "find missing folder" easily enough and the ? disappears from the folder list, but the individual images in the library are still missing. Again this is not really surprising because although the file names are the same as those referenced in the library the extension is DNG rather than RAW.
Now the surprising part (for me anyway).....I can "find missing file" by pointing to the replacement DNG and it warns me that the file name is not the same (because the extension is different) and asks if I want to link them anyway. I say yes and once again the image file is linked to the image reference in the library. So far so good, BUT, despite ticking the box which is meant to link neighbouring files, only the one image is linked.
Clearly if I do face disaster and need to use my backup DNGs then I can't go individually linking each and every image. Is there a quicker way, or is my backup plan fundamentally flawed?
autocad is not saving backup files automatically, only when i manually save are they updated [defeating the purpose of them]. in my options - open and save - i have my automatic saves set to 3 minutes and am also set to create backup copy with each save.
View 8 Replies View RelatedIs there an automated backup for files that are not saved a single time? I have set automaticly backup every 5 minutes, but that seams only to work on files u have saved at least one time.
Did i just lost my whole work because automatic backup system is not activated on new files that are not saved yet?

Is there a way to exclude "backup" files from search. Don't tell me to turn off backup! They have saved me on more than one occasion. When I search my Corel "Jobs" directory which has over 40,000 files it shows all the backup files too. How can I exclude those files? No, creating a seperate place just for these files is not a viable solution either as the backups are set to save within the same directory as the Corel file. If it were seperate it would be really hard to find as we often just call files "18 x 24 coro" but under the clients name. Can't have the backup saving over others with the same name.
File directory is SERVERJobSavesCorel draw 9Aclients name...
I want to search all of Corel draw 9 but don't want to see "backup" files

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have lost my primary copies of all my photos due to a hard drive crash. The only copies I have now are in the folder structure created upon import backup (photos imported on...). My catalog is stored on a third drive, and is uneffected with the exception of all the photos being missing.
How can I match up my catalog with the files that are now not in the folder structure of the origionals? I have 65,000 photos in the cagalog, and locating each folder is daunting.

I just wanted to copy the file and put them in a new folder as backup. Will this be suficient or do I have to do something entirely different to back up these files? If so, I am uncertain how I would go about it if it includes the whole file location name as indicated above.
I have PSE11 on my old Windows XP computer. I have installed it also on my new Windows7 computer and hoped it would be easy to transfer the photos by backup/restore via an external hard drive.
When I try to restore a backup on to the new computer, no tly file is found. When I then look at that backup folder in Windows explorer the .tly file is absent. I tried again with an older backup, checking first that a tly file had was present, by looking on the old computer with Windows explorer. Looking with explorer on the new computer - no .tly file. Looking again with explorer on the old computer, the .tly file is gone!
I am completely mystified. I dont't want to keep trying as each successive backup is older. If the .tly files are gone, I assume the backup becomes useless.
I have few terabytes of photo's that are cataloged in lightroom. Only a few hundred gig are photo's that I rated 3-5 stars and are the only ones that I would want to be 100% certain I don't loose in a perfect storm data loss scenario.
I currently use windows 7 import everything into one master folder for my catalog, then sort and rate them all. Is there any way to direct lightroom to separate all photo's with a 3-5 star rating on my actual hard drive into a separate folder or duplicate them into another folder for cloud back-up? I've tried showing the rating column in window, but it doesn't seem to bring my lightroom star ratings into windows.
After importing into LR3, I get an error message that says: Some import operations were not performed. The following files could not be copied to the backup location.
Then there is a list of images (usually all of the photos imported). This didn't always happen and I can't pinpoint exactly when it started. My LR catalog and backups are stored on an EHD.
I am currently saving all of my metadata to files (just to be sure) and backing up my catalog so I can upgrade to LR5 (already purchased) but want to be sure my catalog is good before I do that.I've tried everything I know - checking my backup location and drive in LR window match up.
This problem has existed since I purchased a replacement laptop and reinstalled PSE 8..I have a little less than 8,000 photos and I back up to an External HD..I have read the earlier extensive discussion on this topic which seemed inconclusive as to whether it could be resolved.The problem seems to exist in PSE 8

View 4 Replies View RelatedOK, so Sony in all their wisdom decided to hide nearly all the metadata from AVCHD videos in .modd and .moff files, which almost nothing seems to read. I don't suppose there is any way to access that data in Lightroom itself, and then embed in the file's metadata, or at least put it in the LR database??
I have also searched for a third party solution, and no beans. Sony Play memories Home can read it, but then can't do anything with it!
In a related issue, LR does show that there are the two sidecar files, but then fails to move them when the AVCHD files are moved.
It was disappointing that LR 5 didn't improve video features at all.
I uninstalled Lightroom, because it was too slow on my computer. It put a lot of library files and directories in My pictures folder.
When I use a backup program (SyncbackSE) to backup my pictures, it starts to scan all the Lightroom library files and it takes forever (hours and counting). Even though Windows cannot find the directories (with hidden and system files shown). I want to completely delete the Lightroom directories, because now I can't backup my images anymore. It is a pain in the dark places.
I am new to using Revit and I am just trying to figure out how it works to be honest. I have made a 2 floor building in ACAD ARCH 13 and when I import the DWG files into Revit, they just show the 2D line drawings even when I look in 3D mode. Do I have to re make all of the walls and such in Revit or am I missing a step to import all of the windows, doors, and wall heights?
