How to import an Lightroom 4 catalog with upgraded PC

I upgraded my PC to Windows 8.1.  I have a Lightroom 4 catalog and I have the Lightroom Photos directory for it. For one thing the Lightroom Photos are no longer on the same drive, so the reference to that drive won't be correct in the catalog.
My goal is to import this catalog into Lightroom 5, because is has keywords and so on that I would like to preserve.
How can I import this information into Lightroom 5?
Thank you for your help.

  • My i phone was stolen and now I need to upload my contact to my i cloud from my I tunes...any ideas how to import contacts into i cloud, with either i tunes or with old iphone

    My i phone was stolen and now I need to upload my contacts to my i cloud from my I tunes...any ideas how to import contacts into i cloud, with either i tunes or with old iphone?

    If you have the contacts on the phone you can sync the phone to the computer. The contacts should then show in address book. At this point you can sync the address book data to iCloud. You have to make sure the iCloud account is setup on the computer and this will not work unless the computer is running 10.7.2 of course. There are other ways to add the contacts to iCloud like through the phone but the phone must be running iOS5. If it is you can simply add the cloud account to the phone and toggle the contacts slider. You will get a prompt to keep or delete the contact data. Of course you keep. Then you will get a prompt to merge at which point you do. This should merge the contacts on the phone with iCloud. Hope this helps.

  • How to Import into Lightroom 3 from Photoshop elements 8?

    I just installed Lightroom 3 and bypassed the option to import my pics from from Photoshop elements 8 (to see what other options were available.  Lightroom advanced a page and there seems to be no way to return to the previous page, I've closed the page & reopened a few times.
    I cannot locate where PSe8 stores it's files either so that is not an option.  How do I reset lightroom to import my old files?  Thank you.
    I also see "upgrade files" but have no idea what this means & don;t see it explained; seems users are to already know the software before buying it.  Thanks again!
    BTW, I have tried to avoid posts in the past with my other software so not sure how I will receive the reply - assume I'll get an email.

    Thanks for your guidance, I had no idea what SDK is & only noticed Lighhtroom so picked it.

  • How to import data from CSV file with columns separated by semicolon?

    I migrate database from MS SQL 2008 to ORACLE 11g
    I export data to CSV file from MS SQL
    then I try to import it to Oracle
    several tables goes fine using Import data option in the SQL Developer
    Standard CSV files with data separated by comma were imported.
    chars, date (with format string), and integer data are imported via import wizard without problems
    the problems were when I try to import table with noninteger numbers with modal part separated by comma not by dot
    comma is the standard separator for columns in CSV file
    so I must change the standard separator to semicolon
    then the import wizard have problem to correct recognize the columns data because it use only standard CSV comma separator :-/
    In SQL Developer 1.5.3 Tools -> Preferences -> Migration -> Data Move Options
    I change "End of Column Delimiter" to ; but it doens't work
    Is this possible to change the standard column separator for import data wizzard in SQL Developer 1.5.3?
    Or maybe someone know how to import data in SQL Developer 1.5.3 from CSV when CSV colunn separator is set to semicolon?

    A new preference has been added to customize the import delimiter in main code line. This should be available as part of future release.

  • How to import a image and compare with another image to find their deviation

    i am new to labview , can anyone tell how to import a image and compare  it with another image  to find their deviation
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    This is an quite easy task using the Vision Development Module.
    There you can acquire images from cameras or read them form the harddrive, then differntiate them or since VDM 2010 calculate the optical flow between consecutive images.

  • How do I automate a large catalog with several unique sections using Data Merge and Microsoft Excel?

    My boss would like me to use data merge to create a catalog with 300+ pages and unique data fields on almost every page. It is an informational catalog that would contain pictures and several unique fitment and specification fields for each product that we sell and manufacture on each page. For years the catalog was made and modified manually in quark express. Is it possible to use data merge to recreate such a complex document? Does anyone have any useful reccomendations or links for tackling this project? I really appreciate any advice or help.
    Thank You,
    Kevin

  • How to import Option 43 in Hex with PowerShell

    Anyone know how to import option 43 in Hex value such as 1H03A802A?
    The following script used by IPAddresses.
    Import-Module .\Microsoft.DHCP.PowerShell.Admin.psm1
    Import-Csv D:\dhcp.csv | foreach {Set-DHCPOption -Owner $_.Owner -OptionID 43 -DataType IPADDRESS -Value "192.168.121.11 192.168.121.12"}
    DHCP.csv file as below
    Name,ScopeAddress,SubnetMask,Gateway,StartAddress,EndAddress,Owner
    Vlan001,192.168.112.128,255.255.255.128,192.168.112.129,192.168.112.170,192.168.112.254,DHCPSRV001/192.168.112.128
    Vlan002,192.168.113.0,255.255.255.192,192.168.113.1,192.168.113.12,192.168.113.62,DHCPSRV001/192.168.113.0

    It is BYTE data type (binary).  It neds to be "SET" as a byte array.
    $byte=[byte[]]0,0,0x1A,0x3D
    Note that the "hex" you posted is not hex. It has illegal character.
    You can also build the string and convert it to a byte array.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
    Can I use the following? if not, can you let me know how to correct it? Thanks.
    Set-DHCPOption -Owner DHCPSRV001/192.168.112.128 -OptionID 43 -DataType BYTE -Value "F1040AD9960A"

  • Is it possible to import a Lightroom 3 Catalog into an older version of Lightroom?

    I shoot for a couple other photographers and provide them the files.  My workflow has been to import the RAW files into Lightroom 3, make selections and basic adjustments, then export my selections/adjustments as a catalog so that they can make any additional adjustments they want (cropping, color/contrast, renaming, etc) while still working with the RAW files.  One of my clients is working with an older version of Lightroom (LR2) and cannot import the catalog because of a version error.  Is there something I can do when exporting to make my catalog readable by the older version?  Thanks!

    LR3 Catalogs cannot be read by LR2.
    For the person who has LR2, you would have to provide him/her with exported TIFFs.

  • Sharing Lightroom 4 catalog with multiple users on the same Windows Machine

    Hi:
    I just started out using Lightroom 4 for managing family photos. What I want to do is to share the LR catalog so that my kids and wife can access the database from their own accounts. I tried sharing the directory with the catalog and all the photos. But when I open lightroom from my kids's account, I keep getting an "unexpected error openning the catalog".
    I am using Windows 8, 64bit
    The catalog was created in my account (adminstrator)
    the other accounts are normal accounts
    I have searched around but all the questions ask about sharing on network drives. But I just want to share the catalog on the same machine on local harddrive. I made sure that all the other lightrooms are closed in the other accounts (everyone else is signed off) before I tried to open it from my kid's account.
    Any ideas?
    thanks a lot for your help,
    Herman

    It sounds like the other user accounts don't have permission to access the catalog. You could mess with permissions and try to get everyone access to the catalog, or an easier way might be to just move the catalog and the images to their own volume formatted as FAT 32. FAT 32 volumes don't user permissions, thus everyone would have read/write access by default.

  • How to import into lightroom 3.6 from my pictures windows xp

    also, after editing in Develop the photo goes darker in Print and also darker back to Develop and Library

    Dear Mr. Wright:
    In the back of my mind it seems like I might have seen a CD concerning my HP monitor but I'm not sure.  Yes I did see a CD concerning a 15"  17"  &  19" screen.  I just looked everywhere and can't find a thing.  I just remembered I have a (HP vs17e) with small speakers in the bottom corners and I saw that CD about 3 weeks ago.  Maybe it will turn up if I keep looking?
    About 5 years ago when I was using Lightroom or #1, I remember importing My Pictures from windows xp into the Library Space and picking a Folder to highlight and it would go right into the folder section of Lightroom (no problem).  Now now there are 3 screens (2 large ones and 1 small screen and I am totally confused.  I've been sick for 3 years and haven't taken any photos for 3 years.  Today I shared my 3 folders from My Pictures in windows xp with Lightroom 3.6 and nothing happened in 3.6.  So I moved my folders back to My Documents and then drugged the folders to (My Pictures Folder) in My Documents.  Now my 3 folders are back in My Pictures in windows xp.  Yesterday I had all 3 folders in 1 folder titled E: (much too large) and then the large folder was missing this morning from Lightroom 3.6.  When you click on My Pictures in 3.6 you get Sample Pictures...... I deleted the Sample photos from my My Pictures in windows xp but haven't tried clicking on 3.6 (I started working on these 2 problems at 8:00am it's now 7:30pm).

    A catalog backup created by the organizer is a folder containing many files and sub-directories. It contains everything to restore both your 'catalog' and your media files.
    Those files are mainly renamed version of each media files (also of the xmp sidecar files which contain metadata changes), but two files are very important:
    - the catalog.buc is a renamed copy of the sqlite database : catalog.pse12db. You could rename it back to recover the database, but normally only the restore process uses it.
    - the backup.tly file contains everything necessary to re-create your folder tree and rename your media files to their original names. It's the important file the backup process searches for before starting the restore. Note that when you start the backup process and browse to the catalog backup location, you may not see the backup.tly file immediately, but only after a few seconds. As soon as that file is displayed in the dialog, your can start the restore.

  • How to import msg files into Outlook with Powershell

    Hello,
    I want to import contact msg files on the file system into Outllok.
    Before I want to delete all contacts in this contact folder.
    Can you show me how please.
    Frank

    # 1 - try to not create lots of interim items as it make it harder to shutdown Outlook.
    # 2 - To delete all items in a folder:
          $namespace.GetDefaultFolder(10).Items |%{$_.delete()}
    The following code of your makes no sense.  What are you trying to do?
    $SourceFiles = Get-ChildItem -path "D:\ccc\*" -include *.msg      #-recurse
    foreach ($_ in $SourceFiles)
            $x ++
            $MailItem = $_
            $olMailItem = $NameSpace.OpenSharedItem($MailItem)
      [void]$olMailItem.Move($objContactFolder)
    This is a better construct:
    Get-ChildItem -path "D:\ccc\*" -include *.msg |
         ForEach-Object{
              $nameSpace.OpenSharedItem($_).Move($namespace.GetDefaultFolder(10))
    But I don't think it is correct.  What are you trying to do?
