SUCCESS! Thank you! Next time I will pay closer attention to where the computer wants to file my Lightroom Travel Catalog. Could you help me with one more thing, please? I am going to reformat the EHD that I use for my travel catalog. I have attached a screen shot of what my Lightroom folder looks like. Can you tell me which files I should copy onto the EHD to have the catalog, keywords, etc. on that drive?
No screen shot. But I’ll take a guess . Mostly what you need is a copy of the Master catalog on the Travel computer. That catalog will have no images associated with it unless you copy then too. The catalog will have all of your keywords collections, Smart Collections and Publish services.
If you copy just the catalog file and open it in the Travel computer, it will complain of missing images. You can select all of the (missing) images in the travel catalog on the travel computer and choose REMOVE) to remove these image imports from the travel catalog.
Back in your master catalog you need to find the folder that contains your presets (settings). The location is found in the Presets tab of Preferences.There will be a different folder for each kind of preset. Copy this Settings folder parent including all of the preset folders to the travel computer IN THE SAME place as you find in in the Master computer.
The Preferences file is located in your library folder. Although not really required, a copy of your preference file in the Travel computer can take care of some of the incidentals.
I’ve probably forgotten some things but others can point out any other files that I I might have missed.
