    remove an account?

    I inadvertently created a second account not realizing which email I used the first time around. Is there an option that would let me mark it for deletion?

    Move catalog to SSD?

    good point, I have about a 1'GB catalog... so 64 should suffice for most of my needs, I think. I'm not growing that fast, and hope SSD prices will take a tumble over the next year. I also have 1:1 previews discarded after a month or something. And at most 4x4GB cards, rarely do I hit more (so...

    Move catalog to SSD?

    sorry to dig up an old thread, but has anyone put JUST the catalog and current set of files on the SSD? I want to keep my OS/Apps drive on a normal HDD and just put the LR catalog and whatever files I'm working on to the SSD. Then migrate finished work to another hdd when done of course...

    color management, what am I doing wrong?

    I see, thanks for the explanation. I should also mention the source files are all raw files, and as I understand it, have no bearing on the file, just previews on the camera and embedded jpgs (which i do not have enabled when shooting). Though, I tested both ways just in case, no difference...

    color management, what am I doing wrong?

    Oh, so tagged != embedded... I did not know this.

    color management, what am I doing wrong?

    Well, I understand there's only so much I can expect in terms of uncalibrated monitors. It's just that it looks fine if I tweak settings in the browsers, which most people don't. As much as I dislike IE, it's been a pretty good constant. It's frustrating to know the image will look close to...

    color management, what am I doing wrong?

    I've been noticing I have a bit of a problem, and am not sure if it's an issue w/ me, or the fact that there's little you can do about monitor/color variation in the real world. First, my setups to get a background: Home Windows 7 64bit, LR3, Dell 24'8WFP (Wide Gamut) Spyder3 calibrated Home2...

    backup and the catalog/file locations

    That's pretty much what I was trying to confirm, thanks.

    backup and the catalog/file locations

    I'm quite familiar with how RAID works. WHS is desirable to me because it acts in the same way as drobo, just not as cleanly and neatly. You can easily expand by adding drives, or replacing smaller drives w/ larger ones (assuming you have enough free space/plan for it). All done without...

    metadata comma annoyance?

    Wow, I hadn't realized this was updated... talk about years later. The suggestion to disable auto-suggest works. I had thought that would kill it for keywords, but if it's in the database, it'll still come up. The reason I think it's a bug is because hitting comma would automatically assume I...

    backup and the catalog/file locations

    I'm trying to organize my files in a way that would be the least amount of trouble if I had to restore from data loss, in addition to splitting up my catalog to working/archival. The scenario:catalog/pictures in c:\users\linh\picturescomputer blows up, but I have a full backup.catalog/pictures...

    aperture -> LR: jpegs+XMP

    John, thanks for the reply. Good to know I didn't miss something then. I think your suggestion might a bit more complicated than I need. virtually all my jpgs are unedited from p&s's. I just have everything cataloged so I can find things easier. So, there's no issues w/ versioning, just a...

    aperture -> LR: jpegs+XMP

    yeah, I clarified my post. I know it can, but I'm wondering why the sidecar doesn't work w/ jpegs. Should it? And yes, I can filter out by filetype probably, but again, this is mostly a question of ability... for future reference mostly.

    aperture -> LR: jpegs+XMP

    Ok, I'm in the process of moving over the LR. Whenever I have a jpg exported w/ a sidecar xmp file, that data (namely IPTC keywords) is not imported when I import into LR. This is not an issue for my any of my raw files. Now, I know I could export jpgs and have it write/embed to the file...

    metadata comma annoyance?

    To bring this back to light... that is not exactly what I'm talking about. Again, I'm speaking from filling out the 'caption' field. Let's say I have the following phrase: So, I went to the park Now, I go to another picture, and I want to put in: So, it was rained out As soon as I hit the...

    How to delete photos in collections

    Good to know it's by design then, and I'm not crazy, heh. Not to say I like it, but I will just use the colors then. Now I just need to figure out my auto-complete comma issue.

    How to delete photos in collections

    While in a collection, this removes the image from the catalog, but not from the disk. And it's undoble for me as well. Don, thanks for the key combo. It's a little frustrating that "Delete Rejected Photos" behaves differently within folder view vs collections. I've also noticed items marked...

    metadata comma annoyance?

    I'm getting a bit frustrated with Lightroom. I'm switching from Aperture to it mainly because I want something I can port over to windows if I end up w/ a dual OS environment, or simply go back to the PC world. Anyway, when I'm entering keywords or captions, I've noticed when I hit the comma...
