If you develop an image in lightroom then export to your hard drive after finishing, is it the right resolution to print out?
Im learning how to use it, and i love using it, but if i develop then export the image which i have imported as a fine jpeg from my camera, will it be the right resolution to print out as a photograph or do i have to do anything else to the image. thanks
When you are configuring your export options in the export dialogue, you have the option to specify the size in pixels. If you are going to print to a certain dimension, first of all I suggest that you crop the image to that aspect ratio. Then, export an image that will be big enough to support that print size. If the image has enough pixels the PPI setting is meaningless (actually, it's meaningless anyway as far as printing is concerned). For example, assume you want to order or print an image that is 16 and 20 inches at 240 PPI. Here are the steps I would follow.
1. Crop the image using the 4 x 5 - 8 x 10 aspect ratio setting.
2. In the export options specify in the image sizing options, choose long edge 4800 pixels (20"x240 PPI).
3. You can change the PPI setting to 240 if you want, it isn't going to matter.
4. Set any other printing options as required, then export the image.

I have a new Mac Pro computer and have migrated my files from my older computer to the new computer. In trying to open a Lightroom catalog on an external hard drive I keep on getting the message "lightroom cannot use the catalog named " " because it is not writable and cannot be opened. I have fixed all the "permissions" and yet it will still not open. How do I fix this?
Hello Forum Members,
I figured it out. You have to select the actual logo of the Lightroom catalog and then click on "get info" and allow what ever your new user name to "read and write". That worked!

IMac 2007 freezes after sleep and then can't find hard drive after reboot.
I'm having a problem where my mid 2007 iMac (2.4 GHz core duo w/ 6 Gb of ram) freezes after sleep. It seems to happen only when an application was open at the time of sleep. The freeze manifests as the cursor turns into the spinning wheel, but the computer can't do anything. Command-option escape doesn't work. Most of the time after I reboot, the iMac can't find the hard drive. If I leave the computer off for 15 minutes then it will reboot ok. Is my hard drive going out or do I have another problem? I'm running Mountain Lion 10.8.5. I've repaired permissions, verified the hard drive and reset the NVram but I still have the problem.
Here is the console right before the time of the crash.

How do you download images from a web server to your hard drive using java?
Can anyone help me with this? The only methods that i have found that are remotely useful are getContent() andgetContentType().
But all the code I've fouund and studied doesnt say anyone about downloading images. What do I need to be looking for to acheive this?You have a URLConnection to the img URL right?
Open that connection's input stream (URLConnection.getInputStream or something like that, look it up in the Javadoc API: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/)
Once you have that stream, you can read its bytes to your heart's content, and write them to a file as you wish. -

You might also try adobe's set of tutorials.
What you are asking is beyond the scope of this forum.
It's sort of equivalent to asking for step-by-step instructions for using cruise control for someone who has never driven a car before.
You will need to take some time to learn the program before you can successfully create work in it. -

My Images won't open in Photoshop CS5 when I click on Edit in Lightroom - even though this option has been selected? To edit in Photoshop I have to export image from Lightroom then import into Photoshop. I have other programmes such as NIK and if I wish to edit in these everything works fine.
Same here. I've never had trouble with this function before.
It opens the Photoshop application with all the menus/windows, but it never opens the actual image I chose to work on.
I'm on a Mac, using OS X Yosemite, 10.10.1 Lightroom is version 5.7 Photoshop is CS5, version 12.0.4
FWIW, I also can't automate>Photomerge ... . Makes me think Photoshop, not Lightroom, is all wacky. I tried dumping PS preferences -
Got tired of iPhoto and finally committing to using lightroom. Using the Lightroom 5 i purchased last year and want to commit to making it my primary way of managing and editing all of my photos ( about 8K). Is there a way to have imported images from my hard drive/Finder (MAC) show as the edited or moved image when i am working in lightroom? Basically want what i am doing in Lightroom to be reflected on my hard drive and vice versa so that i don't have to "add" or "copy" every time I want to work in lightroom.
No need for apprehension Heath.
Unfortunately Lightroom does have certain limitations:
A particular catalog can only be accessed by one instance of Lightroom at one time.
(ie it is not designed for multiple simultaneous access.);
As far as I am aware a catalog cannot be accessed remotely although images can be.
Victoria Brampton has a solution using Dropbox where both the images and the catalog are stored on Dropbox.
Individual users download the catalog to thier workstation and work on images etc and then shut down Lightroom and update the catalog back to Dropbox.
No one else should acessing the catalog or images while one user is using the catalog and images otherwise a conflict will arise and someones work will be erased.
Disclaimer: this sort of setup is NOT supported by Adobe and is not risk free (for more reasons than I have elaborated).

How do you save your DVD to your Hard Drive, and then convert to iPod?
Hello everyone, I was wondering how you save your DVD to your hard drive and then convert it to the iPod Video.
Please respond.
P.S.
I know that it's been discussed all the time, but none of the posts are useful for me.
ThanksHi,
The best option is to pull the card out and plug to your computer UNLESS your computer does not have a card reader. If your computer did not have a card reader, you need to map the cardreader on your printer to your network using the following method:

i tried transferring my iphoto library from my old macbook onto my new macbook pro (via external hard drive), but when i open the new iphoto, it seems to have transferred ALL images ever used on my old macbook. so i tried to just delete all those images so i could try a different approach to transferring, but the new iphoto won't let me do anything and every time i try to delete anything it crashes (since the image amount is so high). please help!!
MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2), iphoto '11, version 9.4.2To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else. -
after purchasing the 9.99 plan and you decide that you do not want to use it anymore, do you use loose your photos? Are you able to save them your hard drive and such?
But all the adjustments that you apply in Lightroom, if you do not export to a rasterized format, will be inaccessible. You'll still have your catalog file, for if you want to re-inlist in the future, but it won't do anything for you without Lightroom. The same thing will go for Photoshop files like PSD, but obviously if you save to standard image formats you'll be fine.
It's one of the issues that keeps me away from the plan. Not being able to edit individual files in PS is one thing, but Lightroom is a photo organization system. I don't want to rent the system I use to organize 10s of thousands of files. -
Keeping Lightroom 5 on an external hard drive.
I'd like to have access to my photos and catalog from both my laptop and my desktop computers. Will this work if I put Lightroom 5 on an external hard drive?
You need to install Lightroom 5 on both computers, and then move the photos and the catalog file to the external HD. If the photos are not currently on the external HD, you can move them as described here: http://www.computer-darkroom.com/lr2_find_folder/find-folder.htm
For this to work properly on Windows, when you connect the external HD, it must have the same drive letter on both computer.
