Windows 7 - Where does the LR 2 Catalog go?

Help Please!
I am trying to move my LR2 catalog from my old computer (Windows XP) to Windows 7. Where to do you copy it on the new computer with Windows 7. What is the path? Thank you. PS Most of my photos are on an external drive.
Debbie

Below are the Win 7 default locations from this website: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/843/cpsid_84313.html
"The Photoshop Lightroom application is the Lightroom.exe file, located in the Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 folder.
The preferences file is Lightroom 3 Preferences.agprefs, located in 
Users/[username]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Lightroom/Preferences/.
The Users/[username]/My Pictures/Lightroom folder contains:
Lightroom 3 Catalog.lrcat, the Photoshop Lightroom database file
Lightroom 3 Catalog.lrcat.lock, which prevents you from overwriting data
The Lightroom 3 Catalog Previews.lrdata folder, which contains additional folders for preview files and data "
But you can put the catalog wherever you want it to be. The catalog doesn't have to be in the default location, nor does it have to be on the same drive as the images. Only external hard drives are not recommended for the catalog because the connection is usually slower than with internal drives.
The previews folder <lrdata> has to sit next to the catalog, or LR will create a new one.
When you move your catalog to the new computer, choose and note the location - it is good to know where your catalog resides.
Then just double-click the catalog file (it's the file with the extension <lrcat> and LR will open with this catalog.

    Where does the data get saved from (notepad) or Notes on Windows Mobile 5?
    (ON the Phone)  Sticky note like program WM5
    I ask because I synced my Blackjack 1 to my pc after about a year and MANY notes later, All the notes from the PC remained but ALL new notes on phone (a years worth) were deleted from the phone.
    I would like to attempt a data recovery on my mobile device- that was an insane endeavor but i got it to work now i just need to know what to look for (what type of files to recover) and or where to recover from?
    I did make the phone a drive already and have data recovery software that can pull deleted files from the phone in fat or raw data format.
    Thanks.

    whenever m tryin to backup my phone it starts and after consuming the space on the hard drive of computer it stops after the msg saying bakup could nt b saved on the computer.. so my question is where does the backup get saved on d computer  n how to access it n hw to clear the old backup history n free the space on the computer? help plz...

    WHERE ARE BACKUPS LOCATED
    ITunes stores one active backup and each time a backup is created the old backup is overwritten.  Icloud saves the last three backups.  You cannot view the backups unless you have special software to read it.  If you want to know where the backups are located on your computer then read this article

  • Random Vectors/images color inverted in print, but not in PDF. Where does the fault lie?

    Sent a PDF to the newspaper printer and some of the images had inverted/strange colors. However...
    In one case I had duplicate images of a pink vector flower. SOME of the flowers were inverted, to a dark blue/black, and some were fine(pink). These were embedded vectors.
    In other instances vectors, went from orange to blue/black, pink to blue/black, and yellow/white to blue black. I specify because in one vector image, a ring, the ring was yellow, but the diamond was white, and it all changed to the same blue/black in print.
    Finally, there were two greyscale Tiff photographs of a pair of ladies. These are not embedded, and have not been altered at all and since the last time this paper has been printed, (which printed fine). This time, they were inverted. Nothing else on the page was inverted.
    As far as I can tell, there is not a separation issue, and I have saved the file from InDesign CC to pdf using the same settings as dozens of times before. The pdf on my end looks fine. The printer says they just print what they receive, but as far as I can tell, there is no issue on our end. The fact that some duplicated images printed fine, and others did not seem to confirm this. Everything is properly linked. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Is this a pdf, InDesign, or even an adobe problem at all, or it is something on their end? I have heard of inverted colors before, but can't find a solution (especially as I can't even see the problem on my end.)
    Using Windows 8, up-to-date InDesign CC, and Acrobat Pro, Illustrator CS6 ver.16.2.0 64bit
    I have no idea what the printer uses.

    Where does the fault lie? - in an environment where they (the newsprinter) collect up front, have no responsibility for quality and arrogantly believe, perhaps correctly, that you'll be back with another paying job in the future.
    Check the file you sent via Acrobat Preflight or Output Preview for RGB elements.
    Check the file you sent via Acrobat Preflight - Checks - For Transparency Used
    Do any of these elements off color involve rgb or interact (with or near) any transparency?
    (InDesign could show these attributes via the links panel or a Live Preflight. Both can be (probably should be in your case) changed via the PDF Export)

  • When I transfer photos from my camera to my computer, where does the computer store them?

    When I transfer photos from my camera to my computer, where does the computer store them?

    Assuming you're using iPhoto 09 or later.
    By default the photos are stored in the iPhoto Library in your Pictures Folder.
    The iPhoto Library is a Package File. This is simply a folder that looks like a file in the Finder. This is a simple protection from users inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
    Want to look inside?  Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Standard Warning: Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things,, deleting them or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
    As an FYI: There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:   You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.  If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
    For users of 10.6 and later:  You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation  which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
    Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    Show File:  a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier:  Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.    3.b.
    b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • Where does the converted document get saved to?

    After the PDF doc is converted to word and I hit save, where does the saved/converted document end up?

    Wherever your browser is configured to save files to by default or the location you select.
    I would suggest searching for the file name (without extension) through Windows Search or Spotlight.
    If you're having difficulty saving the files at all, I'd suggest trying the troubleshooting steps outlined here: http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-1831

  • Where does the ACS server get the DNS info for IP pools?

    I am trying to change the DNS servers that my VPN users are assigned from the IP pools on the ACS server. Where does the IP pools get the DNS server information. I have changed the DNS Ips on the windows server and rebooted. But the VPN clients are still being assigned the old DNS servers.

    ACS ip pools do not push DNS server information
    It is either being forwarded from VPN concentrator group setup or
    it is being send from ACS user/group setup > Radius(VPN 3000) attributes > [026/3076/005] Primary-DNS.
    Hope this helps.

  • Where does the output of  System.out.write go??

    My question might be silly... but i couldn't find out the exact answer anywhere..
    Where does the output of System.out.write go??!! I am not getting anything in the console.. below is the snippet!
    public class TestWriteApp {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
         char a = 'c';
         System.out.write((byte)a);
    PEACE,
    Sandeep

    Is goes to the console. But a write of a byte isn't the way to see it.
    Try something that will show up easier like
    System.out.println("Hello World");What OS are you using? Are you using a command window? Or a GUI like Netbeans?

  • Where does the processing take place when using a remote front panel?

    Hi,
    I am considering upgrading my LabView software from 6i to 6.1 for the new "two click" remote front panel feature. I have already seen a demo of this feature but have just a few questions before I get the upgrade:
    My setup consists of several pieces of equipment connected to Labview via GPIB, to aid in the evaluation of a new microchip.
    1. I wish to grant control of the setup to anyone with a web browser, Is the remote monitoring feature compatible with both Netscape and IE?
    2. The VI which controls the setup is currently located on the PC beside my setup. When I embed a VI in a remote front panel, where does the processing take place, is the local VI still controlling the setup? and
    the remote panel just sending and receiving data from the local VI.
    Thanks, Troy

    Yes. Provided they are resonably modern versions.

    The computer which we refer to as the server, the one with the GPIB card
    in your case, will execute as it does now. In fact, its window will
    even be open. The remote client computer, the one with the web browser
    will be running the runtime engine and processing user events, value
    change and property/method events from the server. So in reality, both
    computers will be sharing the load a bit. This allows for very small
    packets to be sent between the computers. It is in fact quite similar
    to publishing the data between the computers using datasocket.
    One thing to keep in mind. Standard LV includes a license for one
    connection. If you want to allow for multiple web browsers to view at
    the same time, additional licenses are available. Also, only one user,
    remote or server may be in control of the panel at a time. That means
    that if you want to be able to operate the panel, changing kn
    obs or
    flipping switches, the others will become viewers only until you give up
    control. Hopefully this isn't a surprise, but I thought you might want
    to hear about it now.

  • Hp touchsmart 15 Q: where does the 7th brown wire go inside the laptop?

       My friend has an HP Touchsmart 15-R laptop that doesn't want to accept the ac power supply line in jack.  With a flashlight and a micro dental hook tool, i poked around inside the potr in and notice that i do not see the traditional circle and center pin  configured jack port like ALL other windows 7 laptops iv'e come accross.
       After watching a youtube video that shows an identical laptop being taken apart and then put back together,i noticed that this laptops pin out/power plug has a completely different configuration! There are 7 wires going inside the laptop from the port plug.I can identify 6 of them (2white: LED light/ 2 red: dc v+/ 2 black:dc v-) the 7th is a single brown wire, Its situated between the red and black wires on the back side of the female power port plug and as i mentioned, when looking inside the port where the power supply jack connects,the configuration is different (see pictute)Where does the brown 7th wire go? 

    Hi,
    Open Intel Rapid Storage from the Control Panel and it will show it there. The Intel Rapid Storage Control Panel will show the 8GB mSSD under the acceleration tab. The computer actually combines the 8GB mSSD and the main hard drive into a RAID-0 array so it all appears as a single drive.

  • Z77a-g45 where does the little speaker go and why does my computer pause on c5

    so my computer boots does evrything plays games etc but when it starts these numbers in the bottom right corner go off then it stops at c5 for a second then goes to bios screen then boots to windows. is this bad?
    also where does the little speaker plug into.

    it will be fine its just a hang not an error or failure! its just struggling for a short time to get the hard drive opperating thats all and is nothing to loose any sleep over!
    Hang = nothing to worry about really
    failure = thats the oposite of a hang its where it never starts and is to actually worry about!
    unless your computer never gets past that code and refused to load because its failed its not a issue to really bother about! like Xmad said you could try a BIO's update to the most recent one and do a firmware update if you have an SSD! its just a detection hang and an update of both could fix it!
    if you are thinking about doing a bios update use this >>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<
    do not use live update to do the bio's flash as it has a 50/50 chance of bricking the board and the tool above has never had a failure of a flash!

  • Apple maps has received a poor performance rating just after introduction of the iPhone 5. I am running google maps app on the phone. Siri cannot seem to get me to a specific address. Where does the problem lie? Thanks.

    Apple maps has received a poor performance rating just after introduction of the iPhone 5. I am running Google Maps app on the phone. SIRI cannot seem to get me to a specific address. Where does the problem lie? Also can anyone tell me the hierarchy of use between the Apple Maps, SIRI, and Google maps when the app is on the phone? How do you choose one over the other as the default map usage? Or better still how do you suppress SIRI from using the Apple maps app when requesting a "go to"?
    I have placed an address location into the CONTACTS list and when I ask SIRI to "take me there" it found a TOTALLY different location in the metro area with the same street name. I have included the address, the quadrant, (NE) and the ZIP code into the CONTACTS list. As it turns out, no amount of canceling the trip or relocating the address in the CONTACTS list line would prevent SIRI from taking me to this bogus location. FINALLY I typed in Northeast for NE in the CONTACTS list (NE being the accepted method of defining the USPS location quadrant) , canceled the current map route and it finally found the correct address. This problem would normally not demand such a response from me to have it fixed but the address is one of a hospital in the center of town and this hospital HAS a branch location in a similar part of town (NOT the original address SIRI was trying to take me to). This screw up could be dangerous if not catastrophic to someone who was looking for a hospital location fast and did not know of these two similar locations. After all the whole POINT of directions is not just whimsical pasttime or convenience. In a pinch people need to rely on this function. OR, are my expectations set too high? 
    How does the iPhone select between one app or the other (Apple Maps or Gppgle Maps) as it relates to SIRI finding and showing a map route?  
    Why does SIRI return an address that is NOT the correct address nor is the returned location in the requested ZIP code?
    Is there a known bug in the CONTACTS list that demands the USPS quadrant ID be spelled out, as opposed to abreviated, to permit SIRI to do its routing?
    Thanks for any clarification on these matters.

    siri will only use apple maps, this cannot be changed. you could try google voice in the google app.
