Sharing a folder between LR and PS Elements

Hi there-
Im pretty new to LR, and have been experimenting moving photos back between LR and PS Elements 7. I cant seem though to find a way to get them to 'share' a single folder, rather it seems I need to have the same RAW file in 2 places.
First I import my RAW files into LR, call it C:\Lightroom.
I work on the pictures in LR, and while changes are made, there is no boxcar file added to c:\Lightroom. I have no idea how LR tracks or stores the changes.
If I ask PSE 7 to import the files from c:\Lightroom, it will not recognize that any changes have been made, as there is no boxcar.
If I ask LR to export the photos to c:\Lightroom, it refuses to overwrite the source file, and doesnt include the boxcar.
I can ask LR to export to a different folder, call it c:\My Pictures. PSE7 can read those files with Boxcars fine. But any changes I make in PSE7 (for example I delete the file) will have no impact on LR, as those files are all in c:\Lightroom. And it does mean that each picture takes up twice as much space, one RAW file in c:\Lightroom and one in c:\My Pictures.
Is there any way both programs can effectively use the saw RAW file in the same folder, with a minimum of hassle?

That got me on the road, but now there seems to be another problem. In LR I now have a '?' in the upper right of the pciture which indicates 'sidecar file missing', and when I click on it its looking for the jpg, yet I dont think I ever created one, and I didnt see any in the folder before this.
All I had done after toggling the XMP on is open up the pictures in Elements (where they opened up fine) and deleted one of them. Not sure why LR is on about a JPG.

  • Hello there - how can I share my iTunes library between two users on the same computer? I put the library in a shared folder between both and have selected this library on both as well, but when I update iTunes with music etc it only appears on one?

    Hello there - how can I share my iTunes library between two users on the same computer? I put the library in a shared folder between both and have selected this library on both as well, but when I update iTunes with music etc it only appears on one?

    Thank you Joe - I tried this but it's only showing a teensy amount of music - the stuff on the second users account as opposed to the giagntic library on the 'main' account. I actually went to a Genius Bar and they said that apple doesn't really want you to share music between accounts - parents don't want to hear their kids music etc. Which seemed strange, but it might be the case sadly   Thanks anyway!

  • How to create shared folder between mac and windows

    how to create shared folder between mac and windows

    Us ean external drive formatted FAT32 or ExFat. Both OSx and Windows can read/write to the drive and both can use the same data files as long as you have a program that can open and save these files. For example, Word running both on OSx and on Windows will be able to work with the same document on the external drive.

  • Shared home folder for OSX and Windows

    Hello,
    I am wondering if it is possible to have a shared home folder for Windows and OSX.
    We have an AD and ODS. Is this possible, if it is, using CIFS?
    Hope hearing from anyone
    Best Regards.

    hallo victor,
    thanks for your answer. unfortunately this does not solve my problem. my sap landscape is more complex.
    there are several sap installations in diverent windows domains and some are on as/400 (and there is another windows domain) all are in different networks and are protected by firewall. furthermore there is a rule (maybe some exceptions are allowed) that there must not be qntc connections over these firewalls.
    with a shared folder between a windows workstation in one network and an as/400 in another network it works fine. but as a mentioned first - there is the problem with the sapservice<sid> userid which is to long for as/400 environment. I think there must be a tricky solution (hope so).
    kind regards

  • My home sharing continually fails between mac and apple tv 2.

    my home sharing continually fails between mac and apple tv 2, even during watching a movie.  I go to the mac to re-turn on home sharing but it is still on.  Any tips?  I also have to turn off and back on at the mac every time i switch on my apple tv.

    Sharing Stopped working again over night.
    I went to Apple Support Artical TS2972
    As soon as I did this Home Sharing started working

    Firewall Section
    5. Check Firewall Settings
    If you have a firewall enabled in your router or computer, make sure that the firewall is not blocking communication between your computers. Home Sharing uses TCP port 3689 and UDP port 5353 to communicate with shared iTunes libraries.
    In addition, Apple TV and Mac computers will use port 123 to set the time automatically. Incorrect date and time on either the computer or Apple TV can cause errors for Home Sharing and connections in general.
    If you are unsure whether your router has a firewall or the required ports open, test additional devices or another network to help isolate the issue. If the devices tested work on another home network, it is your router or network configuration.
    For Mac OS X, you don't have to edit the port addresses, but make sure the firewall in Apple () menu > System Preferences > Security > Firewall are not set to:
    Block all incoming connections
    Allow only essential services
    If you use another security/firewall software on your computer or router, follow this article or contact the manufacturer or check the documentation on how to open TCP ports 123 and 3689 as well as UDP ports 123 and 5353.
    It made sense to me, but its still puzzling me after restarting a router would (in my first attempt) resolve the issue for a day.  This this time I applied the port forwarding TCP and UDP ports and saved the settings in the DLink DIR-655 and both my iPad2 and iPhone 3GS were now again finding the share. My ATV2 is also now accepting the Share.
    Tommorrow will be the true test.

    No. Home sharing is done from your iTunes library on your computer, not from one iDevice to another iDevice.

  • Shared file system between Int and ext server(DMZ) in R12.1.3 for iRec

    Dear Friends,
    we are using R12.1.3 and we planned to use iRec module.
    so we decided to go with External web tier and it will be placed in DMZ for external users.
    Is it possible to have shared file system between internal and external web server when external server is in DMZ?
    Is it safe to go with shared application Tier file system between internal and external server (or) to have seperate file system in externel web tier?
    Regards,
    DB

    Take a look at Note 380490.1 DMZ Deployment for R12.
    Also For Specific Load balancer 727171.1 Up to 12.x but alot of the information is still usefull based on hardware loadbalancer
    Also Note 1309013.1 has some good information on SSO/OAM Intergration with E-Business Suite

  • Catalog sharing between Lightroom and Photoshop Elements

    Can the catalog be shared between Lightroom 2 and Photoshop Elements 10?

    Lightroom and PSE cannot share catalogs (although the same image can be in both)
    PSE catalogs can be upgraded to Lightroom catalogs, but then changes made in Lightroom are not reflected in PSE. You cannot go the other way, Lightroom catalogs cannot be converted to PSE catalogs.
    Lastly, I strongly recommend that you use only a single "organizing" application. The idea of using two (or more) different "organizing" applications will lead to confusion and errors and lack of synchronization.

  • Cluster with shared domain folder using OCFS2 and the domain /tmp folder

    I've setup a cluster with two machines and one managed server on each machine. One of the machines also hosts the admin server.
    Initially, both managed servers were running on the same machine. Everything worked well. When I move to having two machines, I didn't want to have to independently maintain the domain folder on each machine.
    So I decided to setup a shared drive between the machines and use OCFS2 to share the domain folder between the two machines.
    Everything started up fine, but when I deployed software to the server I would frequently (but not always) get this error:
    [wldeploy] Target state: deploy failed on Cluster cluster-01
    [wldeploy] weblogic.management.DeploymentException: [Deployer:149189]Attempt to operate 'deploy' on null BasicDeploymentMBean for deployment mylibrary#[email protected]. Operation can not be performed until server is restarted.
    After looking around a bit on google I saw this issue:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11035_01/wls100/issues/known_resolved.html#CR279281
    which says
    Some OS and NFS combinations result in deployment failures or configuration updates with an exception like:
    weblogic.management.DeploymentException: Attempt to operate 'distribute' on null BasicDeploymentMBean
    Workaround or Solution:
    * Run statd() and lockd() processes on every NFS client that accesses a remote NFS volume.
    * If multiple servers that share the same domain root are started with different user Ids of same group, set the correct "umask" for the server processes so that a file created by one server can be opened for read/write by other servers without security exceptions.
    Unfortunately, I wasn't running NFS, so the workaround didn't help me.
    Through dump luck, I tried this:
    I replaced the domainroot/tmp folder with a symbolic link to a folder on each machine's local filesystem. Following that change my deployments work everytime.
    Does anyone know why this change worked? What is the purpose of the /tmp folder in a domain folder?
    Are there any switches I could turn on to get more information about the exact error that causes the deployment mbean to come back null?

    It may not be the same situation, but I had this "deployer:149189" error and it turned out to be mixing WLS 10.0 and 10.3 installations together in the same install directory and not being scrupulous about environment setup. I think the problem was caused by accidentally running a 10.0 domain with Java 1.6.

  • Home sharing not working between itunes and apple tv, I've read all help articles I could find... still nothing

    Hey there!
    Here's every detail of the problem:
    1- My iTunes (10.5.2) doesn't give me any options for apple tv in any menu. Some troubleshooting article I remember said something like «go to Settings - Apple TV - Always Search for Apple TVs» or something like that, yet my itunes settings have NOTHING for Apple TV.
    2- Following all setup instructions and usual troubleshooting solutions, i KNOW that all options and settings available to me are set correctly and everything  should work normally, yet my iTunes shows no recognition of my Apple TV AND my Apple TV «Computers» menu is nothing but a «Home Sharing is turned on, make sure that all Home Sharing devices are using the same Apple ID account» message.
    3- Of course, yes, all my devices ARE setup with the same Apple ID account, with Home Sharing turned on everywhere. Also I'm not using a Firewall, and none of my devices have any trouble connecting to my one and only router, all at once.
    So I figure the main problem is my itunes acting like Apple TV doesn't exist. Any ideas/solutions?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Sharing music folder between user accounts?

    I would like to have my music library available for my wife on a different user account on my iMac under Lion.
    The music library is on an external drive on my LAN
    When I try to select it as the source of music in my wife's account, there are no errors, but nothing happens, the music is not added to her iTunes, it just stays in the welcome screen, where to find music, etc.
    I read a tutorial on moving the library to a shared folder, but I am hoping I do not have to do that. The drive is available to her library, just that nothing happens after I select it.
    I imagine I am not seeing something obvious?
    THansk,
    Henry

    check for file permissions witin your shared iTunes folder and make sure your wife's account have both read AND write privileges and that the privileges are applied not only to the folder but all the files and sub directories within that folder.

  • Sharing Photo's between Aperture and iPhoto and syncing to iPads, etc

    Here is my problem.
    I have 5 Macs (1 iMac, 4 laptops.) There are 4 people in my family and we have the family pack of iLife. The iMac is where everything sits with a time capsule and Drobo hanging off of it - about 6 TB's of data. Each Mac sync's with a variety of iPods, iTouchs and iPads. All linked to a user. So for example, all my oldest son's devices sync with only his laptop.
    Well, I finally fixed my media (songs, movies, TV shows, etc) problem by leveraging home share in iTunes and authorizing all my Macs. But not so lucky yet for Photo's.
    Here is the my photo dilemma.
    I like Aperture for the editing and ability to handle large libraries better. So I have Aperture installed on the iMac where everything sits. iPhoto is also installed on the iMac and iPhoto is on all 4 other laptops. Prior to moving to Aperture, sharing photo's between computers was relatively easy using sharing in iPhoto - although it appears sharing in iPhoto is different than home share in iTunes. I converted my iPhoto library on the iMac to Aperture - now sharing is a pain in the neck.
    Ideally, a Home Share like feature would be built into Aperture and iPhoto with another feature that would allow you to "check for new photos" on the laptops and pull them into Aperture - but wishful thinking right now.
    So my while my 2 new iPads are awesome - they are basically useless for Photo's as they are synced to 2 laptops that use iPhoto, but all my Photos are in Aperture on the iMac.
    Thoughts anyone????
    Thanks

    What was the question?
