New catalog?

I am new to Iphone and just noticed how Apple has a catalog for web apps on here. I was wondering if when in Feb they release that development pack that they will then add a new kind of catalog to list applications that can be installed on the Iphone. I was not sure I should go with the Iphone and if it stayed the way it is it would be a mistake however since I know they are going to open it to 3rd parties comes Feb I have really high hopes of a new world. I think this is going to help the Iphone by miles. Still trying to figure out how to do a copy and paste on this thing but I guess from what I am reading that is not an option right now. I just can't wait to get past Feb and see waht all comes out

Nobody is sure how 3rd party apps will be made available and loaded. Right now most thoughts are that developers will provide the code to Apple and Apple will make it available via iTunes (sort of like how iPod games are).

How can I select 5-star photos in one catalog and use them to create a new catalog

I've been using Lightroom since LR1. I now have several LR 5.5 catalogs generally organized by year and camera. I want to create a new catalog which will contain my best from each catalog. BUT, I don't want to remove the photos from their "home" catalog. The photos will continue to reside in both their original catalog and in the new "Portfolio" catalog. The easiest way to approach this is to filter photos in catalog "A" by rating, select all 5-star photos and create a new catalog containing just the selection. I don't want to export or remove them from their catalog or move them on disk. I want them to appear in BOTH catalogs. Since Lightroom is built on a database that merely points to image files, it seems like this should be possible.
I realize I can create an empty catalog and select File->Import from Another Catalog... , then locate the photos one at a time by name and location clicking the import checkbox - tedious is an understatement when you have several 10's of thousands of photos.
Any ideas?

Yes, that's an option I've considered. But as with any database, size is inversely proportional to speed - larger database equals slower performance. LR 5 is much better than earlier versions in this regard but when you reach 100,000 images you can feel it.
This is incorrect. I accept that you think the database is getting slower, but the database (and really all databases) are designed to work pretty much the same regardless of the number of records, except for perhaps searching through the entire catalog. We have seen in this forum people who are now editing larger RAW files than a few years ago, they see it is slower, and decide it is the size of the database, rather than the size of their photos.
What aspects of Lightroom are slow? If it's scrolling and displaying the previews and searching, then it might be the database. If its displaying images in the Develop module, it is NOT the database at all.
Have you taken steps to improve the performance of the database, such as Optimizing it regularly? have you tried these performance tips: FAQ: Experiencing Performance related problems in Lightroom?

How do I make my Catalog Settings stay the same for each new Catalog I create?

How to you set a default Catalog Settings parameter that is different from what the Adobe engineers have set us with?
I have 30" monitors here, so I want the standard preview size of every new catalog to be set to 2048 pixels.
I redundantly back up my catalogs via two different layers of hardware mirroring, so 'no' I don't want prompted once a week when I open one of various catalogs if I want to backup right then.
I have 50+ Terabytes of removable mirrored hard drive space, with individual project libraries that feed into 1.5TB master removable disk libraries, so I'd like to, by default, NEVER discard 1:1 previews, at least until Lightroom gets about 2000% faster in rendering them on the fly.
This is of hot topic for me since I just noticed Lightroom had been discarding 1:1 previews that I had spent large amounts of time creating just over a month ago as I've begun transitioning my archives from Aperture to LIghtroom. At any point, I'll maybe have access to only 1/15th of the actual DNG's in my catalog because they're offline, so keeping full sized previews of archived files is extremely important for my workflow.

John,
That's simple & perfect.
thank you.

How do I view photos in a new catalog I created?

I followed all the steps to add a new catalog since the old one did not include all photos from a recent trip. When I open the new catalog, no photos show on the page. I have tried all the troubleshooting such as moving photos from the old catalog, etc. and none show on the screen.

You shouldn't need (its not even a good idea) separate catalogs for your vacations and trips. Your best bet is to put them all in one catalog.
Photos don't just automatically show up in your catalog. Depending on how you get the files, File->Get Photos or using the Photo Downloader should do the trick.

Best way to start a new catalog for 2009 ?

Hi,
What's the best way to start a new catalog for the new year, with all the keywords and all the presets of the modules (without having to export all the folders) of previous catalog 2008 ?
Thanks,
Dominique

Well there is a cost too in not being able to find all your images in a single step, and inconsistencies soon develop - eg a keyword is plural in one catalogue, singular in another. Speed or stability issues are not simply related to catalogue size, and I've seen decently-performing catalogues 50% bigger than yours (as well as slow ones of a few hundred images). Have you optimized the catalogue recently?
But if you think it's a good idea to fragment control of your picture collection.... Presets will be carried over to a new catalogue as they belong to the machine (unless you have the save with catalogue preference turned on). Keywords can be moved via the Metadata > Export and Import Keywords command. If you have lots of collections and smart collections, then maybe make a copy of your existing catalogue and then remove all the items from it - making sure you don't trash them of course.

Can a plugin create a new catalog file based on the current (or a specified source) catalog?

A little background: I've been looking for a tool that would allow me to host my photos from my network at home, but let me search my lightroom database (mainly by date, keyword, metadata, or location) on mobile devices (e.g. iPhone or iPad). There are a lot of services that provide publishing to cloud storage (e.g. Google Drive, icloud, etc.) and have companion apps, but I've found their search capabilities lacking and I'd rather just source the files from home. In my mind what I need is an even lighter weight SQLite database that contains the catalog information I want (and only that info) that I can sync with an app on my phone/tablet. I could also have a directory of very small previews that could also be synced. When I want a file I can select it and various higher resolution versions (up to and including the original file) could be stored in a local cache on the portable device. I could go on, but I think you get the idea.
In order to do this I need this lighter weight catalog file. I was going to write a perl or swift (I'm writing this for OS X) script that used SQLite to pull the relevant data out of my catalog and generate the new mini-catalog, but I figured I should give the Lightroom SDK a shot. I've never developed for Lightroom before and I don't know Lua, but I've got some time to learn. The first thing I thought I should check out was to see if anyone had built a plugin that did what I'm hoping to do. If so I could save a lot of time. I figured this forum would be a good place to check to see if anyone knows of such a plugin. If so, please let me know. I'd much appreciate it. If it's not possible, that would be good to know too.
Thanks,
David

I doubt there is a way to create a new catalog via plugin (without some serious stunt - i.e. nothing in SDK supports it), and remember - open/active catalog is locked (sql will fail), so you can only do the script if Lr is closed or has a different catalog open.

Opening a new catalog in Lightroom4.3

I am not able to open new catalog in Lightroom 4.3. It is asking for a file inseatd of folder...can you help please ?

When I select
File->New Catalog,
it asks me for a file ... you must tell Lightroom the name and location for this new catalog.
Catalogs are not related to folders, so you shouldn't be expecting it to ask for a folder.

PSE 11 crashes when I attempt to add a new catalog

PSE 11 crashes when I attempt to add a new catalog to those that already exist. No programs are running that might conflict with Organizer, and I can run other functions such as downloading photos from my camera. As soon as I attempt to add a new sub-catalog to an existing major catalog, the program crashes. I'm using Windows 7, and have tried various compatibilities, but none solves the problem. Any ideas?

How do you attempt to 'add a new catalog' or a new 'sub-catalog' ?
There are no such things as 'sub-catalogs' or catalogs included in catalog.
Catalogs are totally independent storing systems, they ignore what is managed in other catalogs.That's why it is recommended to have only one catalog, unless you have a good reason to create several ones because they are totally independent by nature (home vs professional for instance).
You can create several levels of albums, of tags categories, but not with catalogs.

Can't create new catalog in Lightroom 3.6

All of a sudden, Lightroom 3.6 won't create a new catalog for me. It worked for years but stopped working for no reason I can figure. I fill in the new catalog name in the dialog, click Save, then Lighroom restarts but tells me it can't find the new catalog name I just created. When I look in Explorer, I see that the folder has been created, but the catalog files were not.
Also, Lightroom didn't remember the last catalog opened when it starts. To test this, I located and opened a previous catalog, made some changes and quit Lightroom. When I restarted, it did not recall the previous catalog, but opened a much older one. I went to Edit->Preferences and changed the "open" setting to "Prompt me" (for a catalog name on open) but that didn't stick either. So we've developed some anomolies here. Can anyone help? TIA.
Ellen

I would suggest removing or renaming the Preference file and letting a new one be rebuilt. Can solve all manner of weird issues.

How can I add the presets to new catalog or sync info to both catalogs?

I have lightroom on my main laptop was advised to create a new catalog on my external (my laptop is almost out of space). I just upload some presets to lightroom,--when I use my Lightroom catalog on my external the presets are not loaded at all. How can I add the presets or sync both catalogs. Thank you

Listener can be added to a cell editor, not cell renderer.
Set relevent cess(s) to setEditable == true when you use your custom cell editor.

Vendor and new catalog Integration

Hi,
Please tell me, how a vendor is integrated in to the user organization structure (since both user and vendor organization structures are independent) and How a new catalog(link) is integrated into the SRM system?

Hi,
In the vendor org structure, vendor company has attributes defined for like BUK, CAT and all which like the company org structure and the vendor org structure in EBP ( PPOMA_BBP and PPOCV_BBP)

Lightroom 2.1 Crashes When Naming A new Catalog

If I attempt to begin a new catalog, the default folder area pops up and I place a name for the new catalog in the provided box. Once I hit the enter key, LR 2.1 closes completely.
If I double click the icon to bring LR back up, nothing happens. If I bring up the windows task manager, lightroom.exe is now listed twice in the process section.
Select them both, hit end process, and re-click the icon, it starts with the catalog name I had just entered.
Any suggestions?
Ed

Now I have noticed other programs, if shut down (such as spysweeper or registry mechanic) will not restart unless they are stopped as a process.
It is frustrating to deal with vista the last 2 years. Should have stayed with XP Professional.
As for firewalls, no change if I switch to the Windows version or not.
I know now to start the task manager and leave it in the tray while I work on the web site.

How to move entire Collections to a new catalog, including hierarchy, smart collections and also Publish set ups?

I want to move a large number of Collections, including all their hierarchy and smart collection settting, plus the photos, to a new catalog. I can only find a way of importing the actual photos themselves from the old catalog.
Also is there a way to have the publish settings migrated to the new catalog too?

Thanks for that.
I agree that a single catalog is the standard approach (all my personal photography is contained in a single catalog over the years). However this is for a large corporate event which we hold each year. This year I want to use extensively the face recognition and I don't want it assessing or confusing people with those who attended the event last year. The even is over 4 days and results in several thousand images from multiple photographers. It's just cleaner to keep the events in their own catalogs for now (good for archiving and backing up too)
Thanks again. Appreciate your help.

Three questions about dealing with and creating new catalogs

I have 3 catalog related challenges.
1) I loaded an entire batch of images into the wrong catalog...an existing one.
    Can I simply remove them from that catalog in bulk?
2) For some reason I can't get LR to create a new catalog that I name after
    a specific job. Should I use File|New Catalog or Import? Something else?
3) LR launches with the same catalog open every time. I have unchecked the
    preferences box that tells it to do that. I want it to open with NO catalog
    everytime. What setting am I missing?
Thanks for the input.

1) I loaded an entire batch of images into the wrong catalog...an existing one.
    Can I simply remove them from that catalog in bulk?
Yes, select all of the images you want to remove then hit the delete or backspace key. The following dialog will open and you should choose Remove - don't be tempted to choose Delete from Disk or you images will be sent to trash.
2) For some reason I can't get LR to create a new catalog that I name after
    a specific job. Should I use File|New Catalog or Import? Something else?
To name a Catalog after a specific job/project/shoot you should use File>New Catalog. A dialog will open and you can enter the name in the field labelled Save As.
3) LR launches with the same catalog open every time. I have unchecked the
    preferences box that tells it to do that. I want it to open with NO catalog
    everytime. What setting am I missing?
Launching Lightroom so that it opens with no catalog you need to choose the preference Prompt me when starting Lightroom as shown below.

Lightroom 5 will not let me create new catalogs anymore???

I've been using Lightroom for a while now (since Version 3) and now all of the sudden it is failing to allow me to create new catalogs onto my drive. It will go as far as letting me select a destination and create a new folder and then nothing further. I am at a loss and it's probably an easy fix I am overlooking. Ideas?

These are the two screens I get when I go to create a new catalog. I can do nothing further after this stage.
