What Gets Saved in a Lightroom BACKUP??
Win XP Pro -
Have lightroom 1.0. Its asking to backup once a week. What am I backing up???
I usually import new pictures onto my D: drive into their own folders from my camera card. At other times I import pictures on the D: drive and have lightroom import them but leave them where they are. I have 2 other drives I can use for backup if I need.
Am I just backing up the links to the pictures and the adjustments I made in Develop...OR...am I backing up the original pictures too??
Any preferred workflow on this? I know I dont want an unprotected drive failure situation with my D: drive - but what is the best thing to do?
I backup my original pictures on the D: drive onto a data DVD for archive immediately after import - so at least I have originals I can get back to. Does lightroom backup these original pictures too?
Thanks
What elements are in the library file??
Im guessing the library file has pointers to images in the grid view and their rankings?
How about any development adjustments I make to the originals? Are they saved in this library file possibly too?
So, to do a real smart backup - it seems like I have to replicate all my original images and their directories - AND this LIBRARY file. Whats its name and location?
If I back up all my folders and pictures from my D: drive onto my backup e: drive - wont the pointers now be invalid paths - and I wont be able to get to them??

HT4858 Confused about uploads vs. what gets saved in Photo Stream
According to this article, you can upload 10,000 photos/day to Photo Stream, but apparently (not mentioned in this article) you can only keep 1,000 photos in your photo stream? Is that right? Then what is the point of being able to upload 10,000 per day, if only 1,000 of those will get saved? I'm confused.
You're welcome. Since photo stream is completely free, and doesn't use your iCloud storage plan, Apple has to put some limits on it. It's really desiged to sync photos across your devices temporarily (30 days), giving you time to save the photos you want to keep. If you have a Mac, you can also set iPhoto to automatically save photo stream photos to your iPhoto library for permanent archieval; don't know if there is a similare option on the Windows side.
If you're on vacation, you might want to use an alternative cloud storage option like Dropbox. You could use then use the Dropbox app to upload all the photos you want, provided you purchase sufficient storage, and they would be kept permanently until removed. -
What gets saved when backing up?
Hello All.
When I use i-tunes to back up my music, please can someone tell me if it automatically saves the album artwork as well? I spent a long time ptting missing album covers on and I wouldn't want to lose them all! If it doesn't automatically save them, can you also tell me what I need to do to back up the the covers as well? Many Thanks for taking the time to read this!
WayneI spent a long time ptting missing album covers on and I wouldn't want to lose them all!
If you have saved them in the Get Info box, they are part of the song file, so if the file is saved, the art is saved. -
Saving iChat IMs - what gets saved & where?
I was looking for information that I received in an IM this past week and when I went to look for the saved IMs - I could only find a few. I thought all IMs saved as default, or are only ones that I initiated saved? Or maybe I am looking in the wrong place. I found the random saved messages in user>myname>documents>iChats. I IM to several family members each day, so should have a huge folder of saved IMs!
GeraldineHi Geraldine,
Interesting.
I used to try with ichat 2 and iChat 3 and can not remember if I have tried it with iChat 4
It may be a change within the Application's software.
After some random testing I found I can pull my own pictures for 2004 iChats and at least one I found as an incoming pic from around the same time.
I also tried some that were marked as File downloads in the chats and they seem to be stored in /Private/Var somewhere. (it's a support sort of folder that is Hidden normally)
I shall remember this. Thanks for the heads up.

Archived Mail Boxes: what gets saved
I'm archiving the family's mailboxes to protect against hard drive disasters, and I've noticed that the more recent archives are smaller than some of the older ones. I usually perform each archive into a unique, dated folder. Am I better archiving the mailboxes into the same folder, so they'll be restored in their entirety should the need arise?
Hey Rob, I'd like to tag on to your post and add a question (hope you don't mind)... Does the archive command in mail also archive the attachments associated with each and every email?, pics etc...?
Thanks,
John -
so i had my ipod stolen and i backed up everythink on to my itunes before, i cant really afford another one and all i really want is the notes what i saved. is there a way to get to them???
No. If you had configured Find My Phone in icloud.com, then you can lock it or erase it, but you cannot recover data from it.
There probably are third-party utilities that might be able to extract data from the backup file itself. Look for them at MacUpdate. -

time machine: I get the following message: The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data-1/Clemens’s iMac.sparsebundle” is already in use - what to do? Where and how do I find that file and get rid of it?
I'm on Mountain Lion and have version 6.1 of AirPort utility so there is no button to "Disconnect All Users"and the only other option of "removing and re-selecting the drive via Time Machine Prefs" doesn't work either. So this will work.
Launch Airport Utility and select the TC "Edit" button, then select the Disks tab. Deselect "Enable File Sharing" and click "Update". The TC will reboot then follow the same procedure and reselect "Enable File Sharing" and click "Update". After TC reboots again you'll be up and running. Not the neatest way to do it but saves having to unplug the TC which risks disk damage and the whole procedure takes less than a minute.The "Enable File Sharing" button seems to have replaced the "Disconnect All Users" button but with the slight disadvantage that it reboots the TC which takes up additional time. -
What state gets saved when a JPD goes to frozen state?
Hi,
I need to know what state of JPD gets saved when it goes into frozen state after some error. Is it just the non-transient member variables that get persisted? Or is there any information about the point at which the failure occurs in the JPD's execution flow?
For example, lets say that I have a stateful JPD which does the following:
1) Initialize a BufferedFileReader from the input file path
2) Read the file line-by-line:
for (; (this.currentLine = this.reader.readLine()) != null; )
++this.currentLineIndex;
doWork();
If there's a failure while processing, say line# N, then will I be able to get this 'currentLineIndex' value when I unfreeze the JPD and utilize it to seek the file till that line and start from there? From where will the JPD start execution when I unfreeze it? With what state of member variables and from what method/node/line will it start?
I don't know how it works internally, any information regarding what state/execution-context gets persisted when a JPD freezes will be helpful.
Thanks,
BalwinderA failure causes the transaction that was processing to rollback, so all state changes are lost since the previous commit point. What get's frozen is the request message that started processing of the current transaction.
When the process is unfrozen, the original request message is dispatched causing a new transaction to start and the request is processed again. -
I'm using an airport extreme and I keep getting the "Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while copying files to backup volume. The solution on the website is try try again. Its been trying for 5 days now. Now what? Obviously something else needs to be done.
Verify the backup.
Is this TM you are using? TM to airport extreme connected hard disk are known to be fragile at best.

make sure the disk is available and online..
But if it is not working.. then you will have to wipe and start again.

If this is not TM then also verify the source disk. -

My backup got interrupted and now when I try to backup I get the following message: The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data/Macintosh.sparsebundle” is already in use. What should I do so that I can start backing up again?
1. Restart your MBP and try the back up again. If this fails try step #2 below
2. Unplug your Time Capsule from the AC giving it thirty seconds or so to discharge, plug it back in and retry the back up again once you're back online.
3. if step #1 and #2 fails, go here:
