I have a dual monitor setup.  When I paste develop settings from one image to another, Lightroom switches the active window.

Strange problem.  Lightroom 5.5.  Windows 8.1. Dual monitor setup.
I'm processing a large batch of photos.  I have Monitor #1 set as my main develop window, with Monitor #2 set only to display a larger version of the image I'm working with. If I copy the develop settings off of one image and try to paste them onto another image, Lightroom will switch from Monitor #1 to Monitor #2 as the main develop window, and will not display anything on Monitor #1.
If I then try to paste develop settings onto another image on Monitor #2, LR will then display a larger version of the image I'm working with on Monitor #1.
To work the way I want to, I have to continually drag my develop window back to Monitor #1 every time I try to paste develop settings onto a new image. How can I make this stop?

I just tried what I think you’re saying you’re doing and I don’t have the problem with LR 5.5 on Windows 7 SP 2.
Does the same thing happen whether you use the key shortcuts vs the Settings / Copy/Paste options on the menu?
I ask this because if you’re using the keyboard shortcuts, maybe you have some display-manager program that has bound itself to the Ctrl-Shift-V (paste settings) to the function of move-to-other-monitor which would do at least part of what you describe.
You can also test this theory by doing a Ctrl-Shift-V with an application other than LR as the active window and see if it moves.  I suppose Ctrl-Shift-C might also play into it so try both of these hot-key combinations with a program that isn’t LR.
If none of this sheds any light on the situation, then give a more detailed description of the low-level functions you’re doing to accomplish the copy-paste of settings, so someone else could replicate the steps exactly.
Specific detailed steps, like:
left-click on source photo’s thumbnail in the filmstrip
press Ctrl-Shift-C to copy the settings
click Check-None
enable the white-balance and calibration checkboxes
click Ok
left-click on destination photo's thumbnail in the filmstrip
click on Settings / Paste Settings in LR’s menus to paste the settings to the selected photo

  • I have a password problem. After importing data and settings from one MacBook Pro to a new one, I have to put my iCloud password in when re-starting, but the password from the old computer in when waking the computer from sleep.

    I have a password problem. After importing data and settings from one MacBook Pro to a new one, I have to put my iCloud password in when re-starting the new computer, but the password from the old computer in when waking the computer from sleep. I want to use my iCloud password on both computers consistently. How can I fix this?

    The only other place to change a password for the computer login is in Users & Groups preferences. But I don't really know enough here to fix your problem. You can try fixing the keychain:
    iCloud- Frequently asked questions about iCloud Keychain
    Tutorial: Resolving Keychain Issues
    If you can't access your keychain, or forget your password If you can't get into your keychain file because you've forgotten your password or the keychain file appears to be corrupt, there are a couple of options.
    First, if you've forgotten your password, you can use the "Keychain First Aid" utility to make the keychain password the same as the login password. This can be accomplished via the following process:
      1. Open Keychain Access (located in Applications/Utilities)
      2. Go to the "Keychain Access" menu and select "Preferences"
      3. Click the "First Aid" tab
      4. Make sure the "Synchronize login keychain password" box is checked
      5. Close the Preferences window
      6. Go to the "Keychain Access" menu and select "Keychain First Aid"
      7. Enter your username and password
      8. Click the "Repair" button
    The second option is to completely delete your keychain then recreate it. This routine is useful if your keychain appears to be corrupt or otherwise inaccessible. This can be accomplished as follows:
      1. Launch Keychain Access (located in Applications/Utilities)
      2. Click "Show Keychains" in the lower-left corner of the window.
      3. Select the problematic keychain from the left-hand pane.
      4. Navigate to the "File" menu and select "Delete Keychain '(name of keychain)'"
      5. Check all options for deletion and press "OK"
      6. Create a new keychain by going to the "File" menu, then "New" and selecting
          "New Keychain"
      7. You can now make this keychain your default if you desire by selecting it, then
          going to the "File" menu and selecting "Make '(name of keychain)' Default"
    Login as root and perform repair In some cases, problems with keychains can only be resolved when logged in as the root user.
    First, you want to enable the root user:
      1. OS X Mountain Lion: Enable and disable the root user
      2. OS X Lion: Enable and disable the root user
      3. Mac OS X 10.6: Enabling the root user
      4. Enabling and using the "root" user in Mac OS X
    After enabling the root user, and logging in under this account, again open Keychain Access. First attempt repairs using Keychain First Aid, and failing that, delete then recreate the keychain as described above while logged in as root.
    Persistently asked for stored passwords If you are persistently asked for passwords in various applications that you have specified should be remembered in a keychain, your "login" keychain may not be active for one reason or another.
    Navigate to ~/Library/Keychains/ (this is the Library folder inside your user's home folder). Find the file named "login.keychain" and double-click it.
    Failing that, select the "login" keychain within the Keychain Access application and make sure it is the default keychain by going to the "File" menu and selecting "Make 'Login' Default"
    Turn off Keychain synchronization in applications having problems If specific applications are experiencing issues when accessing password-protected material, the Keychain may be to blame.
    The above comes from an article published on MacFixit.com.

    Hi Reddy,
    If you are moving files in two libraries in different sites, then the error will occur and it is by design that there are limitations on the DAV move commands that the DAV client is respecting.

    If you are moving files in the same library, I recommend you to use Wireshark to reveal the error message and enable IIS
    Trace Logging for Failed Requests to examine the IIS log file for troubleshooting.

    To narrow down the issue scope, I recommend you to test with another library and see if the copy in explorer can work.

  • I have two numbers listed in my messages tab under settings.  One number is checked(mine) and the other is not(my sons).  However when someone sends me a text it goes to both mine and my sons iphones.  How do i delete his number from my phone.

    I have two numbers listed in my messages tab under settings.  One number is checked(mine) and other is not(my sons).  However when someone sends me a test it goes to both numbers.  Mine and my sons.  How do I delete his number so that he no longer received texts intended for me.

    The best way is to not share Apple IDs but also make sure under Settings & Messages on both devices that only one phone number is checked.

  • How come when i copy a color from one page to another, the color looks faded?

    I'm using the same color in a multi-page layout. When i copy a color box from one page to another, the color looks faded on some pages. WHY?! Thanks!

    So i checked the blend spaces - both are CMYK (as this doc will be offset printed). Something really strange is happening! See attach below: the 2 blues (same setup/blend space, color breakdown, etc...) look different! And my client is PICKY! ugh. HELP! Thanks again!

  • Why does Dynamic Type change to a fixed font size when copied from one Note to another Note in the Apple Notes App?

    If I copy and paste text from one note to another, it pastes in at the current Dynamic Type size but is no longer adjustable. I have tons of notes with various fixed size text. Is there a way to reset all the text in the Apple Notes App to Dynamic Type so they can be adjusted using the font size slider in settings?

    When you use IMAP, as opposed to "On my Mac," Notes will create a folder called "Notes" on the mail server.  It will then store notes in there.  If you create subfolders in Notes (which you can do), those will be stored as subfolders of Notes on the server.
    So in the case of Gmail, you should be able to log onto your Gmail web account and the notes should probably show up in "All my Mail" with a label of Notes (this is because Gmail's IMAP implementation is VERY nonstandard and it doesn't actually support folders; it uses labels instead).  If you view the Notes label in Gmail's web interface you should see all your notes.
    Because of Gmail's IMAP implementation you should be very careful not to remove the "Notes" label from any of your notes if you're in the web interface, or they will disappear from the Notes app on OS X itself.

  • HELP! I have a dual monitor setup and can't use any of them for video??

    1)I have a GeForce4 MX 64MB VRAM card installed.
    2) the back is dual monitor capable, meaning it has 2 vga (CRT) ports, one on the right and an another adapted plug with a vga port on the end. ( i have no idea which type it was originaly.)
    3) I have a big dell LCD
    THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED:
    the adapter plug ripped off, reveal copper thread things and is now unusable. Although saddened, I was not worried because I don't use a dual monitor anyway and I switched to the other port. BUT THE VIDEO DOESNT WORK ON THAT PORT. I can't figure it out it just doesnt load any video?
    the truth is i would rather have a dvi cable set up because i assume its better.
    thank you for the help,
    I need it

  • File associations are lost when user account is migrated from one domain to another domain (SID changes)

    Hello,
    Currently we are in the middle of a migration project. We are migrating users from child domains to the root domain of one organization.
    The user accounts are migrated with powershell using Move-ADObject cmdlet. This works as expected. The SIDHistory attribute is updated correctly.
    Recently we received complaints from some *migrated* users - they lost their default/custom file associations. This happens only on Windows 8/Windows 8.1.
    What happens:
    the user is migrated and logs on
    her profile loads and everything's preserved (as expected)
    the user clicks on a .jpeg file (previously associated with program XYZ)
    OS asks the user to choose a program to open the file with
    the user chooses a default program XYZ and the file opens
    when the user clicks on a .jpeg file again - OS asks to choose a program again
    i.e. the settings are not preserved.
    Our investigation shows that it is connected with the UserChoice registry key and the HASH value under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.SomeExt
    According to this blog 
    the HASH is calculated based on user's SID. But after the migration the user has new SID and the HASH becomes invalid and we hit this:
    "However In Win 8, the registry changes are verified by a hash (unique per user and app)  that detects tampering by apps. In the absence of a valid hash, we ignore the default in the registry."
    Currently deleting the UserChoice key for all associations solves the problem. But the user has to make all her customizations again which is undesirable.
    Is there any supported way to fix this? Why the OS doesn't update the HASH after the first logon when the SID has changed as it updates the SID for the ProfileList key? 
    This could become big issue in large migrations.

    Hello Petar K. Georgiev,
    Please check the following article to change the registry key to change back to the default file type associations.

  • What's the exact trigger for when updating/inserting/deleting data from one DB to another DB which contains same info?

    Hi guys,
    I have created a copy of the AdventureWorks2012 DB called AdventureWorks2012_new on the same instance.
    I have created the following trigger below but my friend who is a DBA told me that this is not correct and I should be using the inserted table when creating this trigger. I would like AdventureWorks2012_new DB to be updating/inserting/deleting data from
    the same tables that have been updated/inserted/deleted in the AdventureWorks2012 DB. How exactly should I do this for all the tables in the whole database ? What I have written below is just for one of the tables, is there a quicker way to do it for all tables
    in this DB so that it performs the actions mentioned above, automatically ? Help would be greatly appreciated so I can understand how this works, thanks
    CREATE TRIGGER [HumanResources].[tr_HumanResources_AfterUpdate]
    ON [AdventureWorks2012].[HumanResources].[Department]
    AFTER UPDATE
    AS
    BEGIN
    SET NOCOUNT ON;
    UPDATE AdventureWorks2012_new.HumanResources.Department
    SET Name = t2.Name,
    GroupName = t2.GroupName,
    ModifiedDate = t2.ModifiedDate
    FROM AdventureWorks2012.HumanResources.Department AS t2
    INNER JOIN AdventureWorks2012_new.HumanResources.Department AS t1
    ON t2.DepartmentID = t1.DepartmentID
    END

    For insert it's easy:
    CREATE TRIGGER [HumanResources].[tr_HumanResources_AfterInsert]
    ON [AdventureWorks2012].[HumanResources].[Department]
    AFTER INSERT
    AS
    BEGIN
    SET NOCOUNT ON;
    Insert INTO AdventureWorks2012_new.HumanResources.Department
    (DepartmentID, Name, GroupName, ModifiedDate)
    SELECT DepartmentID, Name, GroupName, ModifiedDate
    FROM Inserted;
    END
    I didn't verify column names, so you may need to make sure to use correct column names for that table.

  • Why does my iPhone 4 with IOS 6 crash when I move a built in app (e.g. settings) from one screen to another?

    Is anyone else seeing this? How did this get through QA testing?

    Here is my update on this issue. This isn't normal. I spoke to several tech support people, sr tech support people, etc and we found out that somehow my battery was damaged during the update. They found this out by sending me a diagnostic file via sms. I was sent into the apple store to replace my phone. I had it a little under a year, with 40 days left on my warranty. When I went to the store I was able to show the rep at the store the issue described in this thread. He just scratched his head. It was a quick swap. I spent a lot of time trying to fix this issue. I tried everything. Removing itunes_control files, several restores, starting from scratch. I could duplicate the issue every time. It's a bug and I'm sure it will be addressed. If you are still under warranty, I would recommend getting it checked by an apple tech to see if it messed up your battery and perhaps get it replaced. Battery issues on these devices cause lots of problems. 

  • Error when trying to load data from one cube to another

    Hi Friends
    I am getting an error when using extractor checker for datamart data source. The cube in question is compressed. this is what i get when i view the logs.
    SQL Error: 575-

    Please help
    Thanking you in anticipation

    Rememberme -
         No, the SAP_FACTVIEWS_RECREATE program cannot and will not uncompress the data. A fact view exists for every infocube which combines the E and F fact tables. You can see this view using SE11 -> View -> /bic/vxxxxf (where xxxxx is your infocube tech name). When you run this program this view is dropped and recreated thus eliminating any incosistencies that lead to the error posted in this thread.

  • Dual monitor setup MBA 2013

    Hello Everyone,
    This is my first post on the Apple Support Community.
    Nice to meet al of you!
    System information:
    Macbook Air medio 2013
    Model MacBookAir6,2
    Intel Core i7 1,7GHZ
    8GB
    512GB SSD
    I am wondering if it is possible to have a dual monitor setup using the thunderbolt feature daisy-chain.
    The configuration i am looking for is:
    MBA --> Belkin Thunderbolt™ Express Dock (for using gigabit ethernet) --> Dell U2414H --> Dell U2414H
    Specs:

    Dell U2414H = http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&cs=04&l=en&sku=860-BB CG
    Do i have a chance this could work?
    I'm looking forward to hearing from you all.
    Thanks!
    Kind regards,

    Hello,
    I had the same problem with a nVidia GT120 card (2009 Mac Pro standard). OSX wouldn't show the gray screen on the 3090, even when it was connected alone (to the DVI port). Also, the login screen would always revert to the secondary display (connected thru the mini display port to DVI adapter).
    After login, all was well.
    Now I've solved the problem with an nVidia GTX 285 card. The 3090 is connected to the n.1 DVI port and the secondary display (a 1600x1200 Eizo L997) to the n.2 DVI port, and the Mac Pro boots correctly on the 3090 (gray screen and everything, at full 2560x1600 resolution).
    Note that the first time I booted up the Mac after replacing the GT120 with the GTX 285 I had the same problem, and solved it by disconnecting the secondary display and then rebooting with the 3090 alone. Now everything works as it should.
    Dont't know if there is a bug somewhere (EFI, maybe) of if the GT120 and your ATI are simply unable to work at full resolution before OSX desktop loading.

  • Indesign CS3 Crashes Randomly on Windows x64, Dual Monitor Setup

    My coworker and I just had our computers upgraded Windows XP 64-bt on the following computer setup:
    Intel Core i7 920 2.66Ghz CPU
    8GB DDR3 RAM
    Gigabyte GA-EX58 Intel X58 Motherboard
    1TB Seagate ES.2 7200rpm 32MB Cache SATAII Hard  Drive
    We're running CS3. Indesign keeps crashing on her machine, randomly from what we can tell. It runs fine on my machine.
    We are running Indesign in compatibility mode for Windows XP on both machings (the crashing was much worse before we turned it on).
    The only difference between my computer and the workstation where Indesign CS3 crashes is she has a dual monitor setup.
    Any thoughts on what might be causing it?

    Thanks for the heads up.We're actually kinda banking on Windows 7 to be a bit more stable and switch to that, but it's a long few months when your program crashes every few minutes.
    I just realized that we don't have the latest update (5.0.4) on her machine, we've downloaded it and are hoping that will help to at least reduce the crashing...

  • Dual monitor setup - primary monitor blank upon startup

    Hello -
    This has been vexing me for some time now. I've seen hints of this issue from other people but never the exact same circumstances and never do I see a definitive answer.
    I have a dual monitor arrangement on my 8 core Clovertown (first generation) Mac Pro. After shutting the machine down, when I start it back up, the primary monitor almost always flickers very quickly then goes black while the machine boots, and the secondary monitor kicks on. Note - this never happens on restarts or waking up from sleep mode; just after starting up after completely shutting the machine down.
    Exact specs are:
    The afore mentioned first-gen 8 core Mac Pro (spring 2007), combined with an ATI 4870 graphics card, with the 24 inch Cinema Display LED serving as primary monitor (the one that's useless upon starting up), and my older 23 inch LCD as secondary display. Also worth noting - I'm aware the ATI 4870 is not officially supported in this generation of Mac Pro, however there were so many reports on the web of it working that I did the swap-out myself, and ended up getting the 24 inch LED since I then had the Mini Displayport on the back of my machine.
    The only way I manage to get my machine working after starting back up is to restart it several times - literally up to over a dozen attempts sometimes, before the primary display finally does start functioning and I can begin working as normal.
    Because there were many reports of the ATI 4870 working fine with this Mac Pro and word of other flickering monitor problems, I thought I'd ask despite the graphics card not being officially supported. Any ideas on how to remedy this problem so I don't have to keep restarting over and over before both my screens eventually work?
    Thank you in advance.

    So I have the same issue. I run dual 23" Apple Cinema Displays. For a while now the main monitor has had trouble waking up. I have also been unable to put the Display to sleep from the power button on the display. The other monitor seems to go to sleep fine. So when I get it to sleep and it won't start up, I usually restart and everything is fine. Today I can't get that monitor to come up at all. In addition, I have swapped ports on the video card switching the order of the monitors, no change. I also checked in my System Preferences>Display, and the system is still recognizing two monitors. So I am guessing my issue is related to the Display itself. What can be done at this point?
