Is there a way to get lightroom to search the computer for catalogs like aperture does?

Is there a way to get lightroom to search the computer for catalogs like aperture does? I've switched over from Aperture to Lightroom, and i liked how in Aperture when i went to open "other library" it would basically scan all connected drives for them, and show me when last opened and what version. Is there a way to do this with Lightroom, either in program or by a third party app?

The user interface is on a level of elementary PC software
something I have deteced till now
no free moving workspace windows
no search function for the whole catalog
no support of mpg files in the archive
no chromatic appararture correction
second screen sometimes gets lost, when moving between screens
no automatic creation of collection ( very risky direct interfacing with the original file system )
wrong counting of objects in catalog folder when creating virtuel copies
What worked good is the import of the APERTURE Archive ( 40000 objects ) took me one night and its there with the above obsticles!!! I am using just three days and I have to say
not user friendly
not workflow supporting
risky user interfacing with masters
As JimHess stated, there is no risk working with the masters.
Chromatic aberation correction is available in Lightroom, searching the entire catalog is available in Lightroom.
With regards to your other comments, the idea that Lightroom should work the same (or very similar) to Aperture is one that you should remove from your thoughts. It will only get you into trouble. Lightroom is not Aperture and will not work the same, and has different underlying principles, and so its pointless to think you will be able to do everything the same way you did it in Aperture. You need to be open to Lightroom's features, and Lightroom's way of doing things. I agree with JimHess that it takes most people a while to learn Lightroom's way of doing things, but your patience will be rewarded.

  • Is there a way to get a log of the bluetooth devices my iphone has been connected to?   My Bluetooth car speaker phone was recently stolen from my car and appears to be on Craigslist.

    Is there any way to get a log of the bluetooth devices my Iphone has been connected to?  I recenly had my Bluetooth Jabra stolen from my car and now a simliar one is on Craigslist.  I'd like to give my connection log to the police before I go and see if my Iphone recognizes the device in question.  Any way to get any type of bluetooth device connection log out of my iphone?

    Your contacts should still be on whatever program you sync your iphone to (i.e. Outlook, address book).
    The iphone is not a stand alone device. It is designed to be synced with a computer. If you have not been syncing with a compatible program, then you are out of luck. Your contacts are not included in the back-up because it is meant to be synced with your computer.
    "Although iTunes backs up most of your iPhone and iPod touch settings, downloaded applications, and other information (Contacts, calendars, notes, images in the Camera Roll), your audio, video, and photo content are not included in the backup."

  • Is there a way to get my ipod past the logo screen ?

    is there a way to get my ipod past the logo screen ?

    - Have you tried resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    -Next connect the iPod to its syncing computer, if iTunes sees the iPod restore the iPod via iTunes.
    - If iTunes does not see the iPod see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow iTunes to see the iPod so your can restore the iPod.  For recovey mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • I have an iPod whose contents I want to transfer to a newer Ipod.  At some stage I lost the music files from my library.  Is there any way to get them back from the older iPod and put them onto the newer one again?  I stupidly synced the wrong one.

    Have you not got a backup of your content on, for example, external drives ? If not then you could have a look to see if any of the utilities mentioned in this old post still exist and work : https://discussions.apple.com/message/11014893?messageID=11014893#11014893

  • I accidentally deleted my iPhoto a while ago and don't have money to purchase it is there any way to get it back or download it for free?

    i accidentally deleted my iPhoto a while ago and don't have money to purchase it is there any way to get it back or download it for free?

    Howdid you buy iPhoto originally? Did it come preinstalled on a new macwith MacOS X 10.7 or later? Then you can download it from the Purchased tab of the AppStore:
    See:  OS X: About OS X Recovery
    Restoring iLife applications after Internet Restore of OS X
    If your computer came with OS X Lion or later and you erase your hard disk and install OS X, you can download iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand from the Mac App Store.
    Choose App Store from the Apple menu.
    Enter your Apple ID and password when prompted.
    Click Purchases.
    If you haven't previously accepted your bundled iLife applications within the Mac App Store, you should see your iLife applications appear in the Accept portion of the screen. Click Accept.
    You may be asked for your Apple ID and password once again. Your iLife applications now move to the Purchased section. These applications are part of the software that came with your computer. Your account will not be charged for them. Click Install to complete installation of your applications.
    If your Mac came with an earlier system, reinstall iPhoto from the bundled application installation disk.
    And if you bought an iLife disk, use that to reinstall.

  • I upgraded to Ios5 and have lost my contacts and other app profiles - is there any way to get them back from the backup taken before the IOS5 process started?

    I upgraded to IOS5 and have lost my contacts and other app profiles - is there any way to get them back from the backup taken before the IOS5 process started?

    Thanks but have tried that - When I try to restore I get a -50 error and into a loop of taking another back up.  I took a copy of the back up before the IOS upgrade and have it stored on my desk top but I cannot get Itunes to restore to that back up
    Any ideas how I can do this?

  • I have an 06' macbook and I just bought an 07' macbook.. The 06' has os x 10.6 but the 07' has 10.5.. I no longer have the disk for snow leopard. Is there ANY way to get snow leopard from the old computer to the other without having to buy it again?

    I have an 06' macbook and I just bought an 07' macbook.. The 06' has os x 10.6 but the 07' has 10.5.. I no longer have the disk for snow leopard. Is there ANY way to get snow leopard from the old computer to the other without having to buy it again?

    Technical issues aside, there's still a legal issue.
    Neither 2006 nor 2007 MacBooks shipped with Snow Leopard 'factory' installed. OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard became available in September 2009. So you purchased and installed a Snow Leopard upgrade disc on the 2007 system at some point.
    If your Snow Leopard upgrade was a single-user copy, then legally, you need to purchase another one for the second computer. If your Snow Leopard upgrade was a Family Pack 5-user license, then you're good to go.

    If you have an active MobileMe account, Apple was giving away a single-user upgrade copy of Snow Leopard for a limited time, and you should have received an email with a link, or been offered the opportunity when you signed in to your MobileMe account on the web:
    http://www.macrumors.com/2012/04/24/free-snow-leopard-discs-for-mobileme-users-n ow-arriving/
    Worst case, single-user Snow Leopard upgrade discs are $29 retail, direct from Apple. I'd hate to have two computers and no OS installation CD's for whatever version I'm currently using.

    Was the content not synced with a computer previously?  If it was, simply re-sync with that computer.
    Syncing an iDevice to a new computer will do exactly what you describe above as this is not the way to move content to a new computer.

  • How can I get Firefox to search my computer for plugins that are already there?

    How can I get Firefox to search my computer for plugins that are already there?
    Adobe's Flash player is already on my computer from IE 8. How can I get Firefox to see that it is already on my PC and use it so I don't have to download it again and possibly create other problems. Also, in my efforts to download Flash, Firefox activated IE which made me concerned that proceeding WOULD cause problems our just leave me where I am now where IE can use Flask but Firefox cannot.

    Internet Explorer uses a ActiveX version of the Flash player plugin as it does not work with other browsers.
    Download the Plugin-based browsers version from https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html and make sure Firefox is closed when you install it.
