After moving a folder to an external drive i can still see the images even with the external drive off

I have moved a folder with a lot of subfolders onto an external drive but when I disconnect the external drive I can still view them in Lightroom. I thought this took them off my Mac Book Drive.

The previews that LR makes for itself are small and their size can be set in Preferences. The default is around 1600 pixels wide and it should be set to the size closest to your monitor resolution.
Another feature that might interest you is the ability to make Smart Previews, either at import or later. The SP is a 2560 pixels wide DNG, whereas the normal preview is a jpg, and as such can act as a surrogate for the Raw file and can be edited in place of it when the external drive is offline. When the drive is reconnected, the edits are associated with the original.

  • After downloading ios 6 to my ipad 3 , I can't see the pics of many of my purchased albums when I first open up the Music app. Why? And when I click on the actual album, it shows the pics.

  • Lost some of my photos after upgrading, though I can still see the previews.

    My 2.66 intel core i5 IMAC recently had a HD crash.  Fortuneatly I had a 2T western external HD set up as a time machine.  The local Apple reseller checked the HD and had it replaced.  When I got my PC back I noticed it had the newer operating system and the newer ilife 11. I attached the time machine and began a restore.  All seemed to go well.  When I opened iPhoto for the first time, I was prompted to have the library upgraded for the newer software which I did.  Then when I went into iPhoto to check my pics.  Everything seemed ok until I opened my last import to see that even though I could preview all my pics, I could only open about 20 percent of them.  The rest displayed a large grey exclamation point.  What has happened and how can I recover these pics?  I am now thinking I should keep raw copies of all my photos (have about 40,000), is there a way to export all the raw pics from iphoto without doing each one seperately?
    Been a big Apple fan for many years and trying not to let this change my opinion.

    Try all options except for the thumbnails.  If that fails:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button,                         
    navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option             
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note 1: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost.
    Note 2:  your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

  • I created a new home folder on an external but didn't move my old files over. Now I can't see the old hard drive in my mac mini. How can I locate that drive?

    I wanted to move my home folder to an external drive. I created a new home folder and in advanced options I moved it over. I didn't however move my files over first, my bad. Now I can't see the hard drive on my mac mini. Is it possible to reverse it or get access to the old home folder and is it possible to still use the mac mini's internal hard drive for storage? How do I find my shared folder, it was on the internal drive. I'm new to macs as you might have guessed at this debockle. Can anyone help?

    I'm using Mavricks. I wanted to move my home directory to an external and went into sys prop/users/advanced options and moved the folder ok. Being a noobie on Macs I didn't copy my data and such. So my settings were all new. Basicly now I don't see the internal drive on my mini. There is a lot of strage I'm not able to access. The internal drive doesn't show up. How can I put a folder back onto it so it shows up?

  • Yesterday I moved a folder from my portable drive to the desktop of a computer called B3. The folder

    Yesterday I moved a folder from my portable drive to the desktop of a computer called B3. The folder contained four tiff files and 16 PSD image files that I had been Photoshoping for two weeks. I dragged the folder into bridge for a quick look. Most of the fliles had been processed in Lightroom 4. When I opened the first image in PS all of the layers were gone and the image looked like it had never had anything done to it. All of the PSD images opened with the same result, no layers, weeks of work gone. I took the portable drive and plugged it into my labtop. All of the layers were there. What happened? there was no older version of the file on the drive.

    Actually that would not have had any impact. When I processed the files in Lightroom there was a software glitch and they would not open as PSD 's inPs they appeared as raw files in PS. Yes I know how to set preferences. Ok to get around that one I exported my files as PSD into a folder. After I always opened them from the folder so I don't see how the XMP files could be an issue. Also remember for two weeks I had been working using the same procedure with out any trouble@bdentonphoto: RT @Patrick_Baz: @patrickwitty: Brutal, important frontpage of the @guardiannews, heartbreaking photo from the massacre in Houla, #Syria http://t.co/7411qhUf

    Hi robfromkinglake west,
    Try and isolate the issue.  Check if it's only with this drive.
    Check the drive with Disk Utility

  • I recently received a mac book air 11 inch for christmas ... i beliehve it was bought in the states from my father i was unaware of the specs until i opened and read it... and i was wondering if i can still do the upgrade to 8gb ram and bigger flash drive

    i recently received a mac book air 11 inch for christmas ... i beliehve it was bought in the states from my father i was unaware of the specs until i opened and read it... and i was wondering if i can still do the upgrade to 8gb ram and bigger flash drive.. is this possible and for how much? its only a week old.

    Your 14 days are up, however you could take your case to Apple Inc. regarding same,
    however those are the stipulations.
    RAM cannot be upgraded however, period, its permanent on the logic board after mfg.
    As for the SSD (solid state drive), upgrading same is a bad premise 9 times out of 10.
    No notebooks is a mass storage device, and you need an external HD for data redundancy and backups regardless.
    data that is static on your SSD and not used very often has no logical reason to be ON the notebooks, and best saved on a superslim external HD ($60)
    SSD are very expensive, even a small one,  HD are cheap as dirt and users are recommended to have one regardless for many good reasons.

  • Can't see the Presentation menu in order to select the layout of a folder

    I have created an external repository manager (of type WebDAV). I want to personalize the presentation of folders by selecting a layout. When I select a specific folder, click on Details->Settings I don't see the Presentation menu action. I see only Properties and Permissions. (Shouldn't I also be able to see Subscription, Versioning action menus?). In the permissions, the group 'Everyone' has full permissions to the folder. Am I missing something?

    Praveen -
    as per the link below:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005vp/helpdata/en/8b/764d3c006f8f0ce10000000a11405a/frameset.htm
    service permissions (in this example the service permission "Layout") are required only when setting a default depiction for all users. I am trying to personalize the folder only for my user id. According to the documentation, I don't need any service permissions, I need only read permission on the folder (which I do have).
    My problem is that when I go to the Details tab for the folder, I don't see any layout profile. Any other ideas?
    and by the way, I do not see the menu item Service Permissions when clicking the Settings menu. I have activated the layout and serviceacl services in the KM Repository Manager for the folder.

  • I have a Mac Pro OS 10.7.5 and have a DVD+R disc with files on it, but it ejects the disk after about 10 seconds--what to do?  How can I get the data off this disc?  I can see it has been already burned, so files are on there?

    Try cleaning the lens and see if that will restore functionality to the DVD drive.  Use a DVD lens cleaning disk, if you have a can of compressed air, shoot some into the slot or wrap a fine microfiber cloth (eyeglasses cleaning cloth)  around a business card and insert it gently inside the slot.
    If no success, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar and get a free diagnosis from them.

    this still didn't fix iPad connectivity after updating to iOS 6.0.1 !!! intermittent wi-fi connection, even with a direct line-of-sight to the router.

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • External table, can't see the file

    Hi
    --This is what I do
    CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY data_dir AS 'C:\TEMP\'
    GRANT READ, WRITE ON DIRECTORY data_dir TO my_user;
    --I have my actual GAS.TXT file in the folder, the file looks like this
    0003450305NG-5E6, TUSCANY VILLAS,26 FENTON STREET ROTORUA 3201, ROTORUA
    002343043NG-9DE, LORALIS LIMITED,18 HARINGTON STREET TAURANGA 3001, TAURANGA
    ...etc...
    --I do a select
    SELECT * FROM all_directories
    --and it shows
    SYS DATA_DIR C:\TEMP\
    --Then I create my ext table like this
    CREATE TABLE external_table(
    ICP CHAR(10) ,
    NAME CHAR(20),
    ADDRESS CHAR(30),
    CITY CHAR(20)
    ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL
    ( TYPE oracle_loader
    DEFAULT DIRECTORY DATA_DIR
    ACCESS parameters
    (RECORDS DELIMITED BY NEWLINE

    (ICP CHAR(40),
    NAME CHAR(100),
    ADDRESS CHAR(100),
    CITY CHAR(100)
    location (DATA_DIR:'GAS.TXT')
    --The table is created
    --then when I try and do a select I end up with an error message
    SELECT * FROM EXTERNAL_TABLE
    ORA-29913 blah, blah
    ORA-29400 blah blah
    KUP-04040 file can't be found
    ORA-06512 SYS.ORACL_LOADER
    ORA-06512 blah blah
    So, I reckon of some reason it can't see the file, but I do not know why?
    The file sits on the Server in the C:\TEMP folder and the error log ends up in the C:\TEMP folder
    I have tried several variations on this, but still same error. However, then I also tried these exact same scripts on another Oracle box, and it worked fine. So something with the machine/box I am using is not alright.
    Would appreciate your thoguhts.
    Thanks
