Using Laptop for temporary workflow, need help!

Hi, I need some help. New to LR, love it! I currently do all my work on my desktop, but I am buying a new one and need to take mine in to have files transferred etc. In the meantime, I am a wedding photographer and we are in the middle of wedding season...so I thought I would just use my laptop as a temp workspace. All my files, catalogs etc are alredy stored on an external hard drive. I don't trust the computer drives for storing pics. Anyway, so I thought I could just hook my ExtHD up to my laptop and it would be fine. It does work to see all the original files....BUT any edits I made and stored in "collections" are not there. The collection file folders are there, but they are empty. What the heck! I have to be able to use my laptop for a few days. What do I do? I read the section on syncing catalogs on two computers but it still didn't open my collections where all my edits are made. Please help asap! Thanks, Kim

As you can see I am sitting right here waiting on someone to save the day for me! ha ha
I don't understand. The Catalog etc are already on my Ext Hard Drive. I am so confused as to where I should put it. Why can't I just open it from it's current location on my ext hard drive? Thanks,

Bought a Template for a customer Need Help

I know HTML but the coding to change things baffles me. I am out of help with the seller who is in Australia.
This is what the .txt looks like that I change function with.
&Home_txt8=<font color="#d0d0d0"><b>text goes here
It looks straightforward but I cant use /* */ or <!-- to deactivate stuff so I can try it out.
Any help would be welcomed.
the url of the site is www.danceations.com
I have done some mods but want to do more.
Joepd

The replies are terse and don't come right away. I bought it from some
outfit in Australia. When I asked how do I get rid of the pulldown phono on
the index page the answer was "remove the first page of the Flash.fla.
Except it took out the song I added and I would need tro recreate a Flash Page.
Ugh!
Not a good experience.

How can I add a new Template to My Templates in Pages? I've read most of the discussions on the subject but it doesn't work for me. By the time I reach the Templates folder, I only see templates for Numbers and not for Pages. Need help, please. Thanks

Si vous avez utilisé la commande Save As Template depuis Pages, il y a forcément un dossier
iWork > Pages
contenant Templates > My Templates
comme il y a un dossier
iWork > Numbers
contenant Templates > My Templates
Depuis le Finder, tapez cmd + f
puis configurez la recherche comme sur cette recopie d'écran.
puis lancez la recherche.
Ainsi, vous allez trouver vos modèles personnalisés dans leur dossier.
Chez moi, il y en a une kyrielle en dehors des dossiers standards parce que je renomme wxcvb.template quasiment tous mes documents Pages et wxcvb.nmbtemplate à peu près tous mes documents Numbers.
Ainsi, quand je travaille sur un document, je ne suis pas ralenti par Autosave.
Désolé mais je ne répondrai plus avant demain.
Pour moi il est temps de dormir.

Bought Used Mac Mini...need help to change email for updates

Purchased an used Mac Mini and I want to change my defaults to my name and get rid of the sellers name, I also need help in changing the email default for getting my updates from Apple. That's the most important to me... I've got 5 updates waiting and the message I receive is to get my updates from the sellers email address. Thanks!!!

What OS is on your Mini? What year/model is the Mini? The seller should have reinstalled the OS that came with the Mini instead of just selling it to you as is.
Once you determine the OS, you can erase your Mini's Macintosh HD and reinstall the OS which will allow you to setup your own account during the Setup process.

Soundtrack Pro making a LOT of files - used to working in Logic, need help

So I'm used to working with Logic Studio/7.2/etc, and it's my first foray into working with Soundtrack Pro at work. My questions are this: When I use the razorblade tool (since I can't find an equivalent to the split tool in logic) in soundtrack to cut up a sequence, it seems to be creating a LOT of extra files:
http://www.1217design.com/pics/stp_question.png is an example of what I mean. Is this supposed to happen? The recorded files themselves were done in FCP and sent to Soundtrack Pro via the Send to STP Multitrack session function.
What I'm trying to find out is: Is this supposed to be happening? How can I stop this from happening? Are all of these extra files necessary in order to export the final project? And what will happen if I delete them?
I just want to know because the folder is now 4.71gb for a 30 second audio file (the final aif export is roughly 30mb), and there's over 200 of these extra files that have been created in the process of working on this project.
If this is what is necessary to work in Final Cut then I won't be able to work with FCP due to size issues (which is a shame as I feel so much more comfortable working within that environment than I do working in FCP).
Thanks for the help in advance,
Sean

By doing this, will it still create all of those extra files? That's what I'm trying to figure out. Is it just from the blade tool being used?
For all edits, yeah, baby, STP will generate more files than cows create methane.
First, I know what works for me, but I'm still learning, so I strongly encourage you to keep a COMPLETE BACKUP of all projects until you know your workflow. Also, you may have Preferences set up differently than I do, so you may not find the same paths as what I describe here.
When you have an audio file the way you want it, and you're confident that you won't need those edit files again (be SURE) Process > Flatten All Actions (or Audible Actions) and Save that audio file. Then -- as I understand it so far -- you can safely trash all the edits related to that file. (If you use Photoshop or similar visual programs, it's the same idea.)
During my first few weeks of intensive STP work, my drive grew more and more sluggish, for no reasons known to me. I saw disk space shrinking rapidly. Finally I figured it had to have something to do with STP, so I started searching and eventually I found my edits piling up in home/Documents/Soundtrack Pro Documents, especially (for me) in Edited Media. Since they all came from projects I'd finished and exported to AAC and MP3, I was comfortable trashing them all. Suddenly, whoa, I had an extra 12 GB of disk space available.
Just keep those edit files until you are CERTAIN that you know what you're doing and that you're DONE. Otherwise, when some project needs one precious little 3MB turn of a phrase, you may find yourself confronting suicidal or homicidal tendencies.
I welcome further clarification and/or correction from people who know more and can explain it better.
Best,

Using Laptop for Demo

Dear All,
I am using my laptop for demo purposes. I have a PC as a license server and upgraded the system from PL05 to PL31.
Since i was using the laptop as both the client and the server(for demo purposes only), it was showing the "Evaluation Period" message.
One of my friend told me that i can make it not to show the "Evaluation Period" message, if i connect the laptop to the license server and run the PL upgradation setup. This task was successfully carried out.
But now the problem is i am not able to work on the laptop since it is asking for the "license server". If i connect it on LAN and try, it connects to the DB's on the server or the DB's on the laptop, as i choose. It is not connecting to the local server (i.e. DB's on the laptop), if LAN card is unplugged.
Please help!
Regards,
Sathya

Hi,
You could have permanent license and temporary license that will expire 2 weeks. If you browse this link : https://websmp202.sap-ag.de/~form/
sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000548322&_SCENARIO=01100035870000000183
with S-Id that allow you to request license either for your company SAP B1 installation or your clients, you will find contract installation and reseller installation in the website.
Contract Installation will only give temporary license and Reseller will give permanent but limited amount of user can have it.
As about license server asking, I think you did not start the license manager 2005 service yet or it is caused by you did not have license yet.
You actually could not connect to DB's server if no LAN card. For local server (in your note book), you could not connect, I think it is caused that you did not change the server yet.
To avoid confusing, try to request the license first and let's see if it is helpful.
Rgds,

Ny ipod nano doesn't have a run screen on the fitness setting...and I want to use it for my workouts. Help!

I bought my ipod nano today and I downloaded the user manual. It says that in order to use it for workouts all I need to do is calibrate it for height and weight...however, there is only a pedometer setting and no run setting. Why is this? Can anyone help??

Connect your Nano to iTunes, click the update button on the summary screen. Once that is done, you will get what you expect.

Hi all.
I've been using GB for a few years now. I love this program.
In my projects I felt like I needed a little more power so I upgraded to Logic Pro about a year ago. This program is so huge that I got my hands on a DVD video tutorial set by MacProVideo.com. I am learning something new by the minute. Really cool.
Then I was looking at their site today and saw that they have a DVD for Garageband. I checked out the samples and found a tip that I was unaware of. I haven't learned anything new about GB in 6 months to a year, especially something as potentially useful as this:
http://www.macprovideo.com/tutorial/garageBand101
I'm sure some of you may already know about this (Hang, I'm looking at you) but I never did. This got me thinking that this DVD tutorial could help out anybody that's just starting out. You could have a thorough understanding of Garageband in an afternoon. And it's very reasonably priced for what you would be getting.
I am in no way affiliated with MacProVideo.com. I am just passing on a way to learn that I don't think has been covered on this forum yet. The DVD series I have for Logic has done WONDERS for me, so I assume that the DVD for GB will do wonders for anybody just starting out.
....At least the tip was cool....

Sorry everybody...the link I was hoping to provide was once again the wrong one. Here's the link to the tip that I did not know before this:

DB to use stand alone Softwares ? Need Help

Hi friends,
My Housing Society has asked me to develop a software for their accounting purpose. As I am well versed with JAVA I would using it for GUI thing.
But I could not decide on DB software.
I would like to open source softwares and it should be easy to install as the managing committee get changed year after year.
Currently I know MySql and Ms-Access and no problem in learning new DB.
As per my experience pros and cons of these above DBS
MySql*
Pros*
1) Free (Open Source)
2) Reliable
Cons*
1) Nightmare to get it Installed first. Dont know which antivirus or firewall is used by committee members
2) Back ups. If System crashes, DB would be lost
Ms-Access__*
Pros*
1)Easy to Install.
2)Back ups. Easy Copy an paste .db file
Cons*
1) Not a free Software
2) Not reliable
Please discuss
Please also tell me if there are any other alternative to above Database Softwares
Thanks
Venkat

2) Back ups. If System crashes, DB would be lost.Not unless it's in the middle of a badly set-up update it wouldn't (and possibly even then). You might want to Google for "Mysql quiet points" to make sure.
That said, have you thought about DB2? It's been around for a very long time, and I believe there are free versions available; however they may not include everything you want in terms of backup. Other than that, there are also fully Java-based DBs like JavaDB and Derby, but what amenities they have, I don't know. *They may also not scale well.

Havent used mail for while, so need to download only the latest mails

I was previously on snow lepoard and just recently updated to Lion. I used the Mail app for a bit when I was on SL and havent used it for a year now. I want to start using the mail app on Lion, but I dont want it to download the 1800+ (old and new) emails from my hotmail account. Is there a way to download just the latest emails.
Thank you

I'm reading through the poor documentation for PhoneFactor and it appears to support MacOS. That being said, Option 1 will not happen at an Apple Store. You will need to install Windows yourself. If you use BootCamp, then a 20 GB partition is probably the minimum you can get away with for Windows 7. A better solution is to run Windows in a virtual machine program such as Fusion, Parallels or VirtualBox. Most of these virtaual machines will allow you to run Windows an Mac software side by side so you do not have to reboot your system over and over between Mac and Windows. They also feature an option to have hard drive space that expands and contracts for Windows as you need it automatically. Any of these are beyond the scope of this user forum though.
