Help! How to restore LR 1.1 database backup

I run LR 1.1 under Windows XP. I have LR 1.1 setup to backup the database to an external hard drive. Once a week it prompts me to backup the database, which I do. In the middle of importing some raw files from a CF card, I received a message that my catalog was corrupt. My understanding is that I need to remove the LR Catalog file from the LR directory in My Pictures folder and replace it with the backup catalog. On the external hard drive where I have been backing up LR, I opened a directory called R:\Lightroom Database Backup\2007-08-22 0900, which I assume is where my latest backup is. Inside this directory is a 251,560 KB file called Lightroo. That is correct, Lightroo with no "m". Is this suppose to be the backup LR catalog file? If so, after dragging it into the LR folder, and then CTRL click load LR, when I try to specify this Lightroo file, but LR does not recognize it.
I am lost. How do I use the database backup that I have been regularly creating on my external hard drive to correct the corrupt catalog message I get when loading LR?

The backup file is not called Lightroo unless that is what you named it for some reason. The default backup files have the same name as your working database file whatever that is - XXXXXXX.lrcat. The backup folder you listed looks ok. When you setup the backup procedure on the external hard drive, did you look to make sure that LR was actually putting a copy of your database file where you intended and that it was named properly. Maybe you can simply change the file name from Lightroo to Lightroom.lrcat LR does not care what you name the database file as long as it has the proper extension, lrcat.
It would also be a good idea to check exactly where LR is putting your backup files. I believe there is a Browse button you can click to open a dialog and see where LR is currently putting them.
You don't necessarily have to replace your corrupt file with a backup file to test the backup. You can point LR at any functional database file and it will open it wherever it is. So you can test your backups using the File/Open Catalog command. Once you are sure you have a working file, simply move the backup it to the location where you want it stored and point LR to that location in the future.

  • [Forum FAQ] How do I restore the CDC enabled database backups (FULL + DIFF) while maintaining the CDC integrity

    Question
    Background: When restoring Full + DIFF backups of a Change Data Capture (CDC) enabled database to a different SQL server, the CDC integrity is not being maintained. We did RESTORE the databases with the KEEP_CDC option.
    How do I successfully restore the CDC enabled database backups (FULL + DIFF) while maintaining the CDC integrity?
    Answer
    When restoring a CDC enabled database on a different machine that is running SQL Server, besides using use the KEEP_CDC option to retain all the CDC metadata, you also need to add Capture and Cleanup jobs. 
    In addition, as you want to restore FULL + DIFF backups of a CDC enabled database, you need to note that the KEEP_CDC and NoRecovery options are incompatible. Use the KEEP_CDC option only when you are completing the recovery. I made a test to display

  • How to restore SQL Server 2008 database to SQL Server Express 2012

    How to restore SQL Server 2008 database to SQL Server Express 2012.
    I BACKED UP a SQL Server 2008 database from work, which runs the enterprise version of 2008, and I tried to RESTORE it to my new 64-Bit home PC which is running the new SQL Server Express 2012 64-Bit (Advanced Edition).
    But if fails. I get the following message text.
    Can anyone help me please. I thought restoring a 2008 database to the later version 2012 would be possible.
    Here is the error message. Thanks.
    TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio

    Are you sure your database is SQL server 2008 from error message it seems your SQL server version is 2000.I guess you have multiple versions of SQL server.
    AFAIK you cannot restore backup of SQL server 2000 to 2012 directly .Restore it first to SQL 2008/2008R2 or 2005 then take backup again of new database created and then you would be able to restore it on 2012.Its kind of intermediate way
    Also make sure your DB size is less than 10 G as max DB size supported by Express edition is 10 G and if your DB size is more than 10 G restore will fail.
    You are also trying to restore enterprise DB backup on express edition so you will loose enterprise features on express edition

    How to restore Data from past iCloud backup?
    Is there a way where i can retrieve my spreadsheets from the past iCloud backup of numbers?

    Your Numbers documents were synced with iCloud so they would be stored on the server rather than being included in the backup.  If you were signed into your iCloud account on a Mac that you were backing up with Time Machine, you could restore them from your Time Machine backup.

  • How to restore the oracle 10g database

    Hi all,
    I am very new to oracle. I have experience in mssql and mysql previously.
    Now we have a oracle application to work . I have an oracle database backup (mydata.bak) taken it from my client's oracle database 10g enterprise edition. Now I want to restore the .bak file at my place . I had installed oracle 10g enterprise edition. After that I had created a datbase called praveen by selecting archivelogmode. The database had created . I am able to login through enterprise manager for this praveen database instance.
    Now I want to restore the backup file mydata.bak file into praveen database. May I know how to proceed further?
    Please anybody help me out?
    And basically what is the backup file format in oracle . As I know for mysql it is .sql and for MSsql it is .bak.
    Plz buddies anybody help me out. It is very urgent

    Hi..
    Actually one of the employee related to my client had given me the backup file (mydata.bak). I don't know exactly which type it is?Can't you contact the concerned person at the client side.
    May I know what is the difference between rman and cold backup?In cold backup the database is first cleanly shutdown, and then copies of all the datafiles of the database are taken(all of them in consistent stage).
    RMAN backup is used more where you need to take the backup while the database is up and running.If the database is in ARCHIVELOG mode, then the RMAN backup can be taken while database is in open mode and if the database is in NOARCHIVELOG mode, then in mount stage.

    [http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14191/part4.htm#BRADV44444]
    Can I start restore by assuming the given backup file as cold and if is not possible by assuming cold backup? Better confirm and then start.

    The iPod backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media like app, music and videos. Thus, you wll have to resync those back to your iPod.
    If necessary you can redownload iTunes purchases by:

  • HELP!  Need help in restoring APEX application from database backup

    I accidentally deleted many pages from my development APEX environment when I thought I was deleting from QA.  By the time I discovered it, it was too late to do a flash back.  The DBQ I am working with is now trying to recover from a database backup, but we are not having much success.  Can someone point me to any documentation that may exist on exactly what to restore from what schemas?  It is not intuitively obvious what should be extracted and restored?  Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

    I have older exports, but I would loose 2 weeks of work by going back to them. I need to be able to restore from a database backup so I get back my changes. What we tried to restore didn't bring back the deleted pages so we must have done something wrong.

  • How  to get the oracle 10g database backup.

    Hi,
    i have installed oracle 10g.i need to get the back up of db.
    i have search so many sites.i didn't get much information.
    some guys tells we go to installed directory in that run"RAMNS".
    i am following in the process.after run the rams which commands
    i have to used to get the db back up.
    C:\Oracle\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\BIN\RAMNS
    RAMNS>...(here is the prob which commands i have to used)
    i have seen another way solution is you can use "imp" and "exp" present in BIN to take back up.(how to follow this)
    please help me,

    Would suggest you read the docs on backup, restore. if you cannot restore you db, you are in trouble. read it and understand it well.
    Summary:
    For 10g, you have rman, imp/exp and datapump import/export (replaces imp/exp).
    For very simple backups where you have windows you can shut down, run a cold backup. shutdown the database, copy the database files, and startup. i also take copies of the current pfile and anything else important to restore the database with. we copy the files to a dedicated backup file system, which go to tap, e.
    That will give you a simple option to restore.
    For prod databases, you typically want archive mode on which means you can run hot or online backups. just remember you have to have the archive logs generated during the hot backup. you now also have the ability to do a point in time restore.
    Exp or datapump exp can be used for metadata exports, full exports or partial (schema, table, etc) as needed. i typically run a cold or hot plus an export for redundacy and restore options, but db size will change how you back things up.
    You can find plenty of scripts to automate these. just understand how the scripts work and understand the process itself. if not, you will have trouble restoring when it is needed the most.
    Rman is also a good option with the latest releases.

  • How to restore from Time Machine when backup is larger than HDD

    In an attempt to upgrade my 13 inch, 8GB 2010 MacBook Pro (750 GB HDD) from Mavericks to Yosemite, the Yosemite install was stuck at "about a minute remaining" for hours (overnight).  So I cancelled the install and tried again only to be stuck at the same spot.  I took the mac to an Apple Genius Bar to have it looked at while it was stuck at that install step.  They couldn't fix it and did a fresh install of Yosemite.  Luckily, I had backed it up about a week before, so I wasn't losing a whole lot.  I attempted to restore from the Time Machine backup using Migration Assistant (2TB external USB 3.0) of the latest backup but the estimated time to restore from backup kept climbing to more than 150 hours.  Eventually it had an error message that there wasn't enough free space on the HDD (the same 750 GB drive that my backups were from).  There was less than 100GB of free space on the HDD before attempting the upgrade.
    How can I restore at least a portion of my Time Machine backup, like my Documents and Apps?  I don't even mind going back to Mavericks so that I can use my computer again!  For example, I need MS Office but I cannot use it on Yosemite if I do not first get my original backup working again so that I can unregister the current version (the product key is "lost" with my inaccessible backups!).
    Most of the information I can find online is how to prepare for a proper backup, but at this point since Apple Genius did a fresh install, Time Machine has my only backup!
    Any advice would be great!
    p.s. This may be useful to know:  I had several virtual machines from Parallels: Windows, Ubuntu, etc before I upgraded to Mavericks from Snow Leopard.  Mavericks required an updated Parallels that I never got but I'm sure those VMs are hiding in my backup drive.

    OS X Yosemite: Restore items backed up with Time Machine
    While in Time Machine, press the key combination shift-command-C. The front window will show all mounted volumes. All snapshots should now be accessible. Select the one you want and navigate to the files you want to restore.
    If you need to restore from a backup of the hidden user Library folder, first select a snapshot, then press shift-command-G. A Go to Folder dialog will open. In it, you'll enter the path to the folder. The dialog will help you by automatically completing the parts of the path when you start to type them.
    The path begins with slash character ("/"). Enter that. The rest of the parts will be separated by slashes.
    The next part is the date and time of the current snapshot. Enter a "2", and the rest of the date should be filled in automatically. Press the right-arrow key to jump to the end of the path. Enter a slash to start the next part.
    Next is the name of the volume (usually "Macintosh HD" unless you gave it a different name.) Start to type that, then jump to the end and enter a slash.
    The next part is "Users", followed by a slash.
    Next is your (short) user name, which is also the name of your home folder.
    Finally, enter "Library", then press return. You should now be in the Library folder. From there you can get around as in the Finder.

  • Urgent -- need to restore table from full database backup

    Hello,
    Can somebody tell me the process for restoring just a table from a full database backup?
    I did a full online database backup yesterday, and one of my tables got ruined today. I need to restore it as soon as possible, but I don't know how. When I tried flashback tables, it said that feature wasn't enabled. Should I restore the datafile or the tablespace?
    Thanks much,
    Nora

    If you only want to recover the table and not the other objects in the tablespace, and assuming the table was damaged by a user statement (and not, say, block corruption), you would need to recover your backup to a different system, export the table that was damaged, and import the table into your real production database. If you can recover the entire tablespace to an earlier point in time, or if you can lose some committed changes to other database objects, you may have other options.

    In essense you are really doing nothing more than restoring a backup on a new host. If you want a blow by blow detail of how to accomplish it take at http://www.oracledistilled.com/oracle-database/restore-database-to-another-host-using-rman
    In order to write the files to the ASM Disk groups you will use the SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE in your restore script. You will also need to create the ORACLE_BASE/admin/<DBSID> structure on all of node. Once you get the database completely restore you will need to edit the SPFILE to include the proper value for the CLUSTER* parameters and each the node specific parameters.
