How do i move photos and catalog to a new drive and have lightroom make the same move

I am trying to move all my photos to a new drive with different drive letter.  I know I can do a backup and restore inside PSE13 to perform that.  However, I also have Lightroom 5 on the current setup.  How would I now use the new location for the photos in lightroom if they are already moved by PSE?
Hope this makes sense!

I don't recommend the Time Machine or Migation Assistent approach. The first tneds to be very slow and the second often carries baggage that is probably best not transferred to a new computer.
Lightroom doesn't use activation, therefore, can be installed on your new Mac without having first removed it fom the old. Your images and catalogs can be copied across to the new Mac using an a portable disk drive as the transfer medium. Typically, on Mac computers, the catalog and image files are stored in the Pictures folder. If this is where you have them then then copy them to the same location on the new Mac. Once copied you can open the catalog folder then double click on the .lrcat file to launch Lightroom.

  • How can I archive photos in iPhoto to a hard drive and retain the Album folders and the Events?

    How can I archive photos in iPhoto to a hard drive and retain the Album folders and the Events?  I tried to Export the Albums but just transferred the files individually.

    If you want to maintain the iPhoto organisation then back up the iPhoto Library.
    If you want to export to the Finder, well you need to create a folder for the contents of an Album and expot to that.
    If you have an older version of iPhoto: Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events. This feature is built in to iPhoto 11.

    has details of the options in the Export dialogue.

  • How can I export photos from Aperture with a new sequence and ignore the embedded JPEG number? Have tried renumbering to no avail.

    How can I export photos from APERTURE with a new sequence and ignore the embedded JPEG number? Have tried renumbering to no avail.
    has anyone resolved this issue?
    This is now the second big Problem with using Apple's Appeture with NO apparent FIX...
    Aperture has NO DIRECT way to Burn to a CD/DVD & apparently NO way to RE-SEQUENCE the numbering system????
    ANYONE... I wish APPLE would address/fix these 2 problems... LIGHTROOM I guess is next?

    Hi David,
    Coming in and whining loudly is rude.  We are all volunteers here, voluntarily sharing our expertise so that users like you can make the most of their time with Aperture.  Speaking just for myself:  although I do care about your success with software (it's why I'm here), I don't care what software you use.  If you want to use Lightroom, do so, and post your questions in an appropriate forum.
    Burning files to a CD is a file operation done at the system level (it is built into OS X).  Aperture lets your create sharable image-format files from your Images.  You then use OS X's tools to burn those files to a CD.  Iirc, you can set up a "Burn Folder" in Finder, into which you can export files created from your Images, and with a single click burn your CD.
    Naming the files you create by exporting your Images can be tricky.  There are _many_ possibilities.  Some things can't be done.  Sequencing can be done in a number of ways (see Léonie's answer above).  What have you tried?  What was the result?  In what way did this differ from what you expected?

  • When I want to make a phonecall with my iphone5, I hear absolutely nothing....no ringing and no talking when connection established. When I make the same call but now on speaker, no problem or what so ever, can anyone help me ?

    Hello there, RobenCaatje.
    The following Knowledge Base article is specific for the issue you're describing:
    iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1630
    Specifically:
    Resolution
    Verify that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack, including headsets, headphones, or adapters.
    Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is not switched to silent.
    While on the Home screen, adjust the volume buttons. If you see the icon below, indicating that headphones are attached, there may be debris or an object lodged in the headset jack:
    Check the headset jack. If there is an object lodged in the headset jack that is not easily removed, have the iPhone serviced to remove object.
    For Original iPhone: If there is light debris, such as lint, in the headset jack, try connecting a pair of headphones to the headset jack and then remove the headphones. Repeat this several times to remove the debris.
    If you have installed a protective film on the display, either ensure that the receiver is not covered or remove the film completely.
    Check the receiver mesh (which is on the top front of the device, above the display). If it appears blocked, use a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush to carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    If you have paired with a Bluetooth headset that is nearby, either use the headset or turn Bluetooth off (chooseSettings > General > Bluetooth).
    Restart the iPhone.
    If restarting the iPhone doesn't resolve the issue, try restoring the device.
    If the issue persists, go to the Service Answer Center - iPhone for information on service.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • How do you get a playlist of music to work on the basic Photo App which comes with ipad 2 - to have to play the same tune over and over again with a slideshow is rubbish !

    How does one get a varity of music i.e a playlist to work on the standard Photo App which is shipped with Ipad 2  when using a slideshow ?

    if you have music in your library, when  tapping on slideshow a menu appears - Turn on music option.  when on a song should display below it - tapping it will take you to your library.
    Photo App will give you access to all albums as set in settings\Photo
    Camera - select camera roll - gives camera roll only but options for everything else
    Slideshow timings is under Settings\Photo

  • How do I send photos from my iPad mini by email.i have been through the process but it does not send

    I Am trying to send my photos from my photo app. I have an iPad mini. I have done all that is required
    but the email was not received/sent. What can I do?

    As an experiment and an alternative troubleshooting step, try sending the photo directly from the mail app and not from the photos app.
    Start typing and email and then hold down anywhere in the body of the email until a black options bar pops up Select Insert Photo or Video from that options bar. A window will pop up with your photos in it. Choose any photo. Then try to send the email.
    If that works, the issue could be in the photos app. Try force closing the photos app, reset the iPad like Carolyn described and the try again from the Photos App.
    In order to close apps in iOS 7, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • How do i create another account on my itunes so i can have two at the same time?

    Hi,
    Two people in my household both have Iphones and our data seems to be switched around quite often. For example, when i add a new contact on my phone, it will also appear on hers. Or, if she adds a new appointment to her calendar, my calendar also recieves the same appointment. We stopped by an AT&T store and the man told us to simply make annother acount for my iphone and my mother's iphone can stay on the original Apple ID account on our computer. how do i make this new account for my Iphone?
    Thanks!

    Make a new login account for her on your computer.
    Then create a new iTunes account (for the iTunes store).
    Then each user will have their own iTunes librar, contacts, calendars, and everything else.

  • HT1752 I both one Mac Pro 15" March 2009  and five month ago I have to change the harddrive and put some actional memories, since I have to make the upgrade for Lion IOS. Now the motherboard fails. What should I do or expect from Apple to solve this probl

    Hi everyone. I both a Mac Pro 15" in March 2009. Five month ago I  was forced to buy by one new hard drive and extent the memory, because I had to make the upgrade (and pay) to install the new Lion operation system. Four days ago the Mother-board fails. To change it will cost a fortune. What should I do or expect from Apple to solve this problem? I am very disappointed because my trust on Apple was destroyed.

    I am not sure why you are upset with Apple. Electronics equipment does fail. If the product is out of warranty or you do not have AppleCare there's not much you can do with Apple. Apple will charge you for the repair. Suggest you look for a third party repair store since they are usually less expensive than Apple. Alternatively you can buy one for about $850US and install it yourself. Sorry, but there aren't many choices in this situation.

  • HT5731 how do i get the standard deffinitin version of a movie if i purchased the high def version? Do I have to repurchase the same movie?

    I have an ipod classic that Im wanting to use as a mobile video source but many of my movies are in hd format. do I have to buy them again in sd format or can i download them again in that format?

    Is this for the general public or just for you?  If it is for the general public then insert this code at the top of the page:
    <TITLE>---</TITLE>
    <META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">
    </HEAD>
    And also at the end of the file after the closing body tag:
    </BODY>
    <HEAD>
    <META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">
    </HEAD>
    </HTML>
    It is unorthodox but it works.

  • How can I delete photos from my iPhone 4S without deleting from Mac iPhoto at the same time?

    My iPhone has more than 12gB of photos &amp; video - some 1200 of them. I have transferred them all to iPhoto on my MacBook Pro. Now I want to delete about 75% of the photos on my phone while I keep the rest safely on my Mac. When I go to delete the photos a warning comes up to say that I am about to delete my photos from all locations but I cannot afford to lose my memories.

    You can't because the actual photos are in the camera roll.  The albums only contain links to these photos, not duplicate photos.

    Look at item properties for the .mov and .dv files. What exactly does it say they are? What drive are they playing back from? Make sure the contents of the viewer are set to fit to window in the View popup at the top of the viewer.

  • Why should I pay the same movie twice?

    Hello
    I've rented a movie on my iMac computer in iTunes.
    When I would watch the movie on my Appel TV, I could not find the movie in my "buy Folder".
    It surprised me when I buy / rent a movie in iTunes on the same account (Appel ID). So iTunes can not handle on what device I want to see my movie.
    I have now paid the same movie twice what I think is unfair.
    Regards Morten

    iTunes Store Movie Rental FAQ - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1657
    Can I play my rental on more than one device?
        * If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
        * If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.
