How to use lightroom with desktop PC and mobile with MacBook Pro ?hav

At home I have a desktop PC with all my lr files stored on NAS drive I want to be able to access and edit on macbook when away from home.
1 Is it possible or do I need a Mac pc or change laptop to windows based ?
2 do I use remote access to NAS or use previews and sync catalogue ?
3 can lr exist with both file formats at same time ?

I use a similar setup, with a Windows desktop PC and a MacBook Pro. My photos are on an external drive connected to the Windows machine, and I sync the catalog and smart previews using Dropbox.
See see my post A Portable Lightroom Catalog on TipSquirrel.
Also, see my post on Using Lightroom with Two Computers.

  • How can I tell the differences between the new MacBook Pro with retina display and the old MacBook Pro with retina display by looking

    I'm just wondering the differences between the new MacBook Pro with retina display which was just released in October 2013 and the old MacBook Pro with retina display.

    Thank you for the reply! As you said they looked exactly the same, so I'm not able to tell the differences just by looking, right? I'm thinking to buy a new 13-inch MacBook Pro with retina display, but I'm not buying the MacBook in Apple Store, I'm buying it in other shops, how can know whether they are not selling me the old model of MacBook Pro with retina display?

  • I installed my new iMac with my Macbook Pro 2008 backup and created a network with the iMac and now the Macbook Pro cannot get internet.

    I installed my new iMac with my Macbook Pro 2008 back up.  I created a iMac network with Airport extreme, but now my Macbook Pro cannot get internet.  any ideas on why or what to do about it.

    Hello 1BillyMac,
    It seems you have a network conflict that isn't allowing your MacBook Pro to connect to the internet. This may be caused by both computers sharing identical network settings. You may want to consider creating a new network location on your MacBook Pro to assign new network settings. The following article will instruct you on how to do that:
    OS X Yosemite: Add a network location
    A network location is a group of network settings
    A network location is a group of network settings for your various network services (Ethernet or Wi-Fi for example).
    If you often change network settings, you may find switching between locations quicker and easier than repeatedly modifying individual groups of settings. 
    For example, you might want to make a location for “home,” where you connect to the Internet with a telephone modem, and a location for “office,” where you connect to your company network and the Internet using Ethernet or AirPort. 
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Network.
    Click the Location pop-up menu, choose Edit Locations, then click Add . 
    Enter a name for the location, then click Done.
    Enter settings for each network connection service you want to use in that location.
    After you create your locations, you can switch all of your network settings by clicking the Location pop-up menu and choosing a different location.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

  • How to use Microsoft Word's Find and Replace with HTML tags?

    Hello to all!
    I'm trying to figure out how to use the find and replace function in Word to replace html tags. I'd like to be able to change something like this:
    <span class="B01-K-ITAL">random text</span>
    To something like this:
    <em>random text</em>
    I want to replace the open and close tags without changing or interfering with the text between the tags. I'm pretty sure I should use wildcards, but I can't figure out how to use them properly.
    Anyone able to lend a hand?

    Here is my latest regular expression with Perl.   I think it matches the spirit of the request in the original post.
    Note, this isn't as easy as you think.  You need to code up the complete set of html rules in you implementation. You need to allow for a certain amount of mal-formed html.

  • Boot Camp problems with Windows 7, and a new Macbook Pro

    When I try to install Windows 7, when the process is almost complete and Windows is finalizing all settings, the system reboots then gets stuck at the white/gray bootscreen, and then tries to boot from disk, only to repeat the bootscreen cycle indefinitely. How do I fix this? Thank you very much.

    My MAC BOOK is 13 inch, first generation of unibody that I bought when it first came out last November, 2009. It seems that the latest boot camp 3.1 does not support windows7 64 bits on my mac book model. I followed Apple instruction to upgrade boot camp 3.0 when running XP 32 bits. And I then upgrade my XP 32 bits to 64 bit Windows 7. The upgrade/installation was successful but I encountered a lot of problems with the mouse and sound.
    1. No sound with my new Windows 7 64 bits.
    2. I managed to make Windows 7 64 bit recognize my apple mighty mouse. But the mouse does not funtion normal as expected. It does not work with swiping and scrolling.
    3. I could not re-install boot camp 3.0 from windows.old nor from the Mac OS X installation disk. When I tried to run setup.exe from the MAC OS X snow leopard, I got the error "Boot camp x64 is unsupported for this model"
    I am really disappointed that boot camp 3.1 is not universally supported for all mac book or mac book pro.
    I need help to re-install boot camp for my Windows 7? I bought the upgrade through education upgrade program and I selected to get 64 bit version so I do not want to rollback the installation to 32 bit.
    Please help.

  • Does any one else with a mid 2012 13 inch macbook pro have this problem?

    I took my computer in for repair last year having this problem and the problem has started again. I don't know why this happens because I am very carefull with my laptop and never use it on my lap. I also have a shell case on the computer and put this in a laptop sleeve. Also,  have friends that abuse their laptops and have the same model as me and they have never had this kind of issue. My software is up to date so I don't think thats a problem.
    Model: Macbook Pro 13 inch Mid 2012
    I purchased this in June 2012 and do not have apple care so if someone can tell me how much the repair for this problem will cost that would be great!

    That looks like a GPU or display problem.  Make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar.  The evaluation will be free regardless of warranty status.  You will be told what repair costs will be, which you may accept or decline.
    Bring the image with you just in case the MBP starts to behave it self in front of the technician.
    Ciao.

  • Using lightroom on desktop PC and laptop computer

    When I'm out in the field, I take my laptop and download images to my laptop, triage photos, assign ratings and categories. When I get back home, I want to transfer this information to my main PC which has a giant, backed up harddrive. I also occaisionally want to take a subset of my photos from my main PC out to show someone via my laptop.
    Does lightroom address this scenario?
    No, I don't want to use the "unsupported" sync toy because I want to export portions of my database to my laptop, do some work on my laptop, then transfer the work from my laptop back to my desktop PC.
    From reading some other posts, sounds like this is not supported. How many other people need this functionality? Is there a web site where I can post a feature request?

    There is an earlier thread, don't remember which. Describing simple way.
    You store the Inages in the exact same folder tree structure on the laptop as on the home storage. you 'triage' on the laptop with auto export to XMP on (in Prefs). at home you move the folders to the storage place on the drive there using LR drag and drop.
    Then import them on the main machine from the storage space.
    Meanwhile you have all your images referenced on the lap top from the same storage space so that you can show and see them even when away. (Thay show red in the folder list when off line to the laptop.)
    The home computer will see all your work except collections, Virtual Copies and stacks.

  • Problem with FW CS5 and my new Macbook Pro

    i own an MBP, i5, 4gb ram.
    FW performes quite slow. especially show/ hide edges, or switching to the prewiev mode lasts very long. about 10 sek. within this time the whole OSX dosnt work.
    i dont have this problems at any other adobe products.
    can anyone help?

    Here are a few links regarding the battery in your MBP:
    http://www.apple.com/batteries/notebooks.html
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1446
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1473
    Battery life is a function of how much you make the MBP work.  Games and video the battery resources get used up very quickly.  Text edit and email, you will approach the advertised figure, but probably never reach it.

  • Bought my hubby an iphone4 and I registered it and opened an apple account for him.  I have an iphone 5 (under my own Apple account).  I use icloud to sync calender and contacts with outlook 2007.  How do I add my hubby's phone (account) to icloud ?

    Bought my hubby an iphone4 and I registered it and opened an apple account for him.  I have an iphone 5 (under my own Apple account).  I use icloud to sync calendar and contacts with outlook 2007.  How do I add my hubby's phone (account) to icloud so I can sync the same contacts and calendar?

    On his phone, sign in Settings>iCloud and enable Mail so that he can have his own email address. Then add your account in Settings>Mail, Contacts & Calendars and enable Contacts and Calendars. They will then appear on his phone alongside any syncing he has set up. This will keep your emails separate, or you can add Mail as well so that you can both access that if you want. You can add his account in the same way on your phone and enable any data types you want to sync.

  • How download and install on Macbook Pro.  Purchased software and installed on my desktop computer.

    How do I download and install on MacBook Pro.  Installed once on my PC desktop but now have new Macbook Pro with no disc drives.

    What version are you talking about and have you got the serial number?
    If you want to install version 11 then you can download from Adobe website and use your serial number to activate it.  The only problem I can see is that your serial number might be for a windows system and I don't know if it would work on a Mac.  However, it is worth a try.
    You are allowed 2 installations simultaneously so you should be OK in this respect.
    The download link is here:
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_elements&loc=us
    Make sure you use the MAC to download it so that you get the correct version for it.

  • My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can i fix this without turning off iCloud?

    My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can I fix this without turning off iCloud?
    I am at a new office that uses Outlook (not Outlook Exchange) which does not sync with my mobile... I just got iCloud set up on my PC to sync my contacts, calendar, reminders, etc... The sync worked (not without flaws, but the other issues seem solvable... I think), so that i can now see all my appointments on both my phone and on my PC. The problem I am having is that iCloud moved all of my calendar items from Outlook into iCloud calendar and now when I send out meeting/calendar invites the recipients may accept them, but the meeting does not get added to their calendar. This is a huge problem and may mean that i need to turn off iCloud.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?
    Thanks!

    I am replying to my own post here as I seem to have fixed the problem.
    I do have some calendars that are shared. Some of those are shared with users who have time zone support turned on. So i activated time zone support on my iphone, then deleted my icloud subscription. I then signed in to icloud again and voila... problem solved.
    It is a weird one as the other calendar views were always fine and when you opened an event that appeared in the wrong day (on list view), the correct date of the event was shown in the information...
    one more bug in a complicated system I guess

  • How to use ssd as boot drive and hdd as storage on a macbook pro 13

    Does anyone know how to use SSD as boot drive and have HDD in optical bay as storage on a Macbook pro 13. I mean in that both drives work as one . by formatting using mac software . I would like to run all programs and OS but would love to have my downloads and useless data on run on my 1tb 5400rpm hdd without me have to manual send it there..

    Each drive mounts as a separate volume. There is no convenient way to make them look like one contiguous volume.*
    Franky, with an hdd and a ssd I would recommend you put your home dir on the hdd and leave the ssd for the OS and your key applications.  It's relatively easy to do and I think better than moving only portions of your stuff.
