    Catalogs Any way to separately run a older (2015) catalog along with matching dng images from and old photoshoot? Yet retain my new catalog and newer images?

    I have older catalogs and images on a storage drive, from an old, old computer, 3 builds back! At the time, I was using the old stand alone Lr 6. My 1st try to reclaim images to my new computer's new catalog, works. Yet... all previous edits are "written in stone"! Thus, any new editing is...

    Import Changing from DNGs to original NEFs.... Curious question

    Since I first started using Lightroom, ( ver 5 ) I bought into the reasoning of converting to DNG. I do not refer to "buying in" as bad. I mean choosing / deciding. Any fears ( not concerns ) discussed in the choice, of not using DNG, I still believe are based on just that; Fear. Stating my...

    New Computer Build...Saved all Images and catalogues, but.....

    My new graphics workstation is complete, and successful. I set it up for Vegas Pro and Lightroom, since I do Real Estate photo /video. I use combination of dslr stills, handheld gimbal vid, and drone stills and vid. I also shoot portraits, and surf/action, here on Maui. My new build, was only...

    Added new HHD, Now Lr folders are re-lettered!

    I do video work ( slideshows of my photos ). I added a new 4T hhd, for video saves. This will alleviate the video space encroachment into my image file HHDs. Of course, in hindsight, I now realize most of the Drives has been re-lettered. Now the HHDs and partitions that Lightroom uses, is...

    Downloading standalone Lr6

    I got my original Lr6 from Adobe download. It even lets me know my serial number on my Account pages. I just purchased a laptop. I want to download same product, NOT Lightroom CC. There is a labyrinth of despair created by Adobe, to keep customers like me from trying, prolly because they wish we...

    This may be a new concept, but how do I find out if it's possible?

    1st off; I own Lr 6 stand alone. This example is what "I" would like. And it would only apply to a month to month style subscription. The concept can apply to any extra add-ons you need. I can't afford to do this indefinitely, but let's say I install the complete CC for just a month or two, so I...

    Off Topic Lightroom forums! Who's kidding who?

    Looks like almost everyone, (at least on this 1st page) is simply incapable of getting their brains off topic! So, I'm going to demonstrate to all of you, exactly how to do this correctly: Do you like crispy breakfast cereals out of a box, that you eat cold? Or hot, cooked, oatmeal style...

    Backwards adjustment brush workflow?

    Many adjustment brush tutorials, and even the way the adjustment brush presets are presented in a menu format, give the concept of 1st; Creating an effect with the sliders, and then "painting" that effect on the portion of the image you wish to enhance. Thus you find individual "recipes" for...

    Why I gave up on using Wacom tablets

    1st off, I have used a high end, precision mouse for many years. Yet, the use of a tablet by many pro photoshop and other computer media producers, made me want to learn to use one also. I started with a Pen and Touch small model. There was no way I could emulate the ease of using the wheel on a...

    Win10 default Photo Viewer is messing up my familiar folder system...

    Back in Win 7, I setup a simple folder system using "Windows Explorer", (I don't know what Win 10 calls it), on a secondary 1TB drive. Under a folder named "My Pictures", I have a named and dated folder for each photoshoot. Simple. After image files are uploaded from camera to their newly named...

    before and afters

    Is there a way to quickly show clients before and after of your edit work? Besides going to history and clicking on image before it was edited? I know all different adjustment modules inside develop module have on/off toggles. But Basic module has no on-off. I made the big mistake of going back...

    It's hard to find detailed help and suggestions for Wacom Intuos Pen and Pen & Touch

    So, Perhaps we can have a place just for Lightroom use, with these smaller less expensive/ more affordable tablets? Please excuse, I am a crazy, detail oriented, enthusiast, when it comes to things I get into. I usually explore way beyond the "Default settings" of many normal features, and I...

    Wacom Intuos Pen and Touch small compatability with Lightroom 6

    Anyone use this small sized tablet? It's a newer model, and seems to have some nice reviews with Photoshop users. Most say, it has a getting used to learning curve, but once done, it's superior to mouse. Thanks!

    please help me with my catalog saves location, it seems to be in 2 places.

    Many times when asking a question, experts reply they need exact information. I have attempted to create an info "tree" that will simply explain. But I fear readers will be put off, not being able to follow along, because of the sentence structure, and focus it takes to read this. I...

    How to re-assign locations for Lightroom 6 "saves"

    I have limited space on my 250GB SSD. OS (win7-64), and all major programs. I want to relocate my pre-sets, catalog, and any other additional saves I can, to either one of my HDDs. Looking into all the preference tabs, I can find out where they exist on my C drive (SSD), but I cannot find where...

    Upgraded from 5 to 6 right after installed new HHD.

    My OS and LR lives on a separate 250GB SSD. After I partitioned the New 1TB HHD and installed all my old photos in the same manner as before (but on a different drive name), My new Lightroom 6 installation "recognizes" the old, organized by date and discription folder system that has been moved...

    Elements Organizer with Lightroom Question

    I have Lightroom 5, I can't afford Photoshop, and they don't make it standalone anymore. So I just upgraded to Elements 13. 64 bit, Raw file capability. But Elements has to pair Organizer in the mix. M atter of fact, I don't know if you can uninstall Organizer without doing something nasty to...

    Another question re: certain Exporting parameters

    When I am "fixing" raw images in Develop module, to send to a Real Estate Multiple Listings Service (MLS), I am running into an area where I am unclear on the concept...so far! The MLS parameters I was given were: they can be as large as 1280 X 960 125K. In the process of "fixing" real estate...

    Is this possible in Lightroom5?

    I've been successfully sending images to a Real Estate agent. I've run into 2 issues. 1.) Let's say I have 150 DNG images in a Library folder. I develop 75 of them. I need to batch process those 75 into much smaller jpeg images, sending to a folder, reserved to be emailed to a Real Estate. In...
