Saving catalog to another location

Since I had a lot of repair work to do after moving files incorrectly, I want to have clarity on this before making any change: I want to keep my photos on the EHD, where they and the catalog currently reside. I want to move the catalog to the internal hard drive and keep the photos on the EHD. What is the best way to do this?

Copy the folder containing your catalog and the associated Previews.lrdata folder structure to the internal drive. I would just copy the folder from the external hard drive to your internal drive. Then start Lightroom and open the catalog in its new location. All your links etc in your catalog to your photos will be preserved.
(I would do the copy using operating system, and I would copy rather than move; if anything does not appear to work, then at least you can always continue to use your catalog on the external drive. If all goes well, then after a day or two, I would remove the catalog and associated previews folder from your external drive.)

Set The Secured Files, Not allow printing and saving to another location

Dear Sir / Madam,
Please help...
Possible to set the security permission for share files, not allow end users to printing and saving a PDF to another location.
Thanks,

Hi Alex,
Possible to set the security permission for share files, not allow end users to printing and saving a PDF to another location.
Based on my tests, users can save the document with only Read permission, which is by design. If you don’t want users to print files, please do not give the print permissions on printers.
Best Regards,
Amy

Saving an output file in another location

Hi friends,
Is it possible that a specific concurrent report's output file be saved in a different location, other than $<PROD>_TOP/$APPLOUT when executed? Is it possible to configure that?
Thanks in advance.

Can not save dashboard after copying to another location

Hi All,
I am moving a dashboard to another location and trying to make some changes but when I click on save button nothing happens, "Saving" text appears, page busy gif appears, thats all. I've waited long enough but no change. This occurs only on one page of the dashboard. The original dashboard page works fine but the copied one is not saving.
Sometimes I get the error;
There was a problem retrieving the response data:Unknown (12030)
Ay idea would help. Thanks.

How can I overwrite PDF files without saving in a new location?

Hi,
I have recently purchased Acrobat X.
Everytime I make an edit to a pdf file, I cannot overwrite the old version. I keep getting an error message saying that another user has the document open, and am forced to save with a new name or in a new location.
Can anyone help me to fix this? I deal with 100s of PDF files in a day and re-saving in a different location or renaming with every change is a real time-consuming hassle.
Thanks!

Hi inasravanim and Gilad D (try67)
Sorry to hikack the thread....but I have the same issue.
Windows 7, saving to network drive. If I overwrite the pdf on the desktop it does so fine. However, not on the network drive. The user has full control permissions on the network drive. So at a loss as to why this is happening. It only happens with PDF files too (as have tried other file formats with no issues).
Don't think it is a Acrobat problem - this was happening on Acrobat X and now on Acrobat XI. But again shouldn't be a permissions issue either...??
Any ideas?

Printer software says there is no room in downloads folder and to install in another location. How do I direct the file to an alternative location?

I am trying to reinstall my epson printer driver after reinstalling my operating system. The download will not complete and I get this message that the download cannot be saved because of an "unknown error," and to try to save the download in another location. How do I find another location?

Hi, clintonfrombirmingham: I wanted to thank you for jumping in and attempting to help me. I went back to the apple store yesterday and the space issue was caused by a setting from five years ago that was saving all mail in the hard drive in the apple mail application. Once all of that mail was deleted and the setting changed I was able to reinstall the printer driver and other things that would not function properly. Now my only issue is that the printer will not connect wirelesslessly. But I'm going to work on that at another time.

First of all, use PSE9 on your old computer to make a full backup of your catalog and image files. Put this backup in a safe location, such as an external HDD, and don't mess with it. If something goes wrong, you'll need to restore your catalog from this backup to get back to where you started from. Let's call this backup "PSE9 Backup Golden".
Now the question becomes "Can PSE10 restore from a version 9 backup?". I don't know, so you have 3 options:
1. The "I feel lucky" option.
Use PSE9 on your old computer to make a new, full backup onto an external HDD. (Call this backup "PSE9 Backup New".)
Install PSE10 on your new computer.
Use the PSE10 Organizer to restore that "PSE9 Backup New" to your new computer, answering "Yes" to any prompt about converting the catalog to the new version.
2.
Use PSE9 on your old computer to make a new, full backup onto an external HDD. (Call this backup "PSE9 Backup New".)
Install PSE9 on your new computer.
Install PSE10 on you new computer.
Use PSE9 on your new computer to restore "PSE9 Backup New" to your new computer.
Open the restored PSE9 catalog in PSE10 and say "Yes" to the prompt about converting it to the new version.
3.
Install PSE10 on your old computer.
Open the PSE9 catalog in PSE10 and say "Yes" to the prompt about converting it to the new version.

Install PSE10 on your new computer.
Use PSE10 on your new computer to restore that converted catalog to your new computer.

I have tested the first solution without any problem with different PSE6 catalogs, one of which with 32 000 pictures.

You can't save in this location please choose another location

I just received the above message. I was using an existing template in CS6. I created a new page from an existing template. I finished the page and tried to save it to my root folder. That is when I received "you can't save in this location. Please choose another location". What did I do? Thanks in advance.

To spawn new pages from Templates, go to File > New page from Template. Select your Template and hit Create button. Template.dwt files can only be saved to the Site's Templates folder. However Child pages can be saved to any folder in your site root.

This web site must be created on a server that is running Microsoft Sharepoint Foundation. Please choose another Location

Hi all, I installed microsoft sharepoint designer 2010. It was working perfectly up until yesterday when I create a new site, it gave me an error that said " This web site must be created on a server that is running Microsoft Sharepoint Foundation.
Please choose another Location " Now I can't create any sharepoint site and it freaks me out. I tried repairing, unistalling and reinstalling but still i get the same message.

You have to have SharePoint 2010, either SharePoint Foundation 2010 or SharePoint Server 2010, installed somewhere in order to be able to create SharePoint sites with SharePoint Designer 2010. SharePoint Designer 2010 is a client-side product, which is usually
installed on end user machines and then used to connect to a server-side edition of SharePoint 2010 (either of the two I mentioned above) to modify the SharePoint sites hosted on that server-side product.
It is possible to install SharePoint Foundation 2010 on a client operating system (Windows 7), but it is much more likely that a production environment will involve installing SharePoint Foundation 2010 or SharePoint Server 2010 on a server operating system
(Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2008 R2) on a central server that can be accessed by multiple users.
If you are looking to do testing, you can either install Foundation on Windows 7, or use a virtualization product such as Hyper-V, VMware Workstation, Virtual Box, to name a few, to build a virtual server hosting SharePoint.
You aren't going to be able to create SharePoint sites with SPD until you have SharePoint Foundation 2010 or SharePoint Server 2010 somewhere for it to connect to, sorry.

Copy File from One Location to Another Location through xcopy or any

Hi,
I Need to copy one file from one location to another location. That file need to save in C:\Windows\System32 folder
I need to create one .bat file and i want apply that bat as a startup script through GPO.
I tried through XCopy if i test in machine that is working. If i tried in other machine that is not working. becoz of some Credential issue
I tried in the script by netuse command after that my script itself not working.
SET username=XYZ\Administrator
SET password=abcd
@ECHO OFF
cmd "cd C:\"
net use "\\10.50.5.68\c$\Windows\System32" %password% /user:domain\%username%
:copy
Xcopy /S /I /E D:\DLL \\10.50.5.68\c$\Windows\System32
Regards, Hari Prasad.D

You cannot do that in a startup script. You do not need to do that in a startup script.
To add files to the system use GP Preferences.
On Window 7 and later only the Trussted Installer is allowed to add files. (That means only Microsoft.)
No programs or users should ever alter files in the system area.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

How do you move pictures from one catalog to another?

How do you move pictures from one catalog to another? I have just got the program and have moved pictures into the default catalog. I have now created several new catalogs and want to move pics from the default into the new catalogs. I don't see this answer in the general help or my "dummies" book.

It's not a good idea to create multiple catalogs. For one thing, this defeats the purpose of the Organizer as a way to search for and find your photos; the search can only operate within a single catalog. Also, there are no functions in PSE that work across multiple catalogs. And even though you can "manually" combine the catalogs if you so desire, you lose information such as collection/album membership, stacks, version sets, creations and a few other things.

It could be that someone has accessed your AppleID/iCloud account with out authorization. Or it could be that you forgot to remove find my iPhone form a phone that your previously owned.
Change your Apple ID password.

I lost my itunes media folder how can I export the photos from my ipad to another location

I lost my itunes media folder and also my iPhoto files. I have the majority of the photos from iPhoto library on my iPad. How can I get them from my iPad to another location. Like exporting them to a folder on an external drive.Is this possible. I know I can move photos I've taken with the ipad to a new iphoto, but how can a get the old iphoto photos from my ipad to a new location? I'm basically starting over. Don't ask what happened. It was horrible.

An external drive? Not sure that there is any way of doing that. There are a number of WiFi transfer apps that should let you transfer the photos back to the Mac itself. Look at some of these.

This application allows you to transfer all iPad content back to your computer.

How can we move the 'application data\apple computers' folder to another location

We use roaming profiles and the Application Data folder is stored on a network drive with restricted space (500MB). This has not been a problem in the past but since we've been rolling out iPad's & iPhones, this restriction is becoming a problem as iTunes download's ios updates and stores device backups in 'application data\apple computers' folder (and not in the media library).
Does anyone know how we can move this 'application data\apple computers' folder to another location or force iTunes to store the downloads/updates in the media library (which can be moved)?
Thanks very much in advance for any help.

Move the iTunes Library elsewhere, launch iTunes with the Shift key held down, and point it there.
