Windows 8.1 user with multiple external drives. Lightroom CC 2015 freezes on import. Need to have Lightroom recognize only a single drive.

I see that Adobe still hasn't fixed this issue where Lightroom freezes up during import when a system has multiple external drives attached. Disappointing.
A friend suggested that I configure Lightroom to only recognize the single external drive where I save my RAW files. I haven't been able to find out where in Lightroom's settings to do this.
Currently the only folders I have in Lightroom are my local C disk and my external drive with the RAW files, (K), where I do all my editing.
Can anyone offer advice on how I can either do what my friend suggested or find another way of dealing with/solving this issue? Currently Lightroom is almost unusable for me since I cannot add new files on my K drive to develop.
Thanks.

I save edited images from Photoshop into a new folder on the same hard drive my catalog is on, then attempt to import, or to right-click on the edited image and choose Open in Lightroom. Lightroom hangs in either situation.

Is there anyway I can get buy a Moto X customized phone? I spent most of the day talking with Motorola and Verizon.. it seems the two companies need to have a chat on how to freakn work together to order this phone online. I feel like a bunch of dementors sucked the life outta me, I need chocolate and alcohol to help me feel better... eeeek!

One thing that I finally had to do when I got my phone on MotoMaker was to buy it outright, after getting an account with Motorola--that way I could get a customized one with 32GB storage. I recall that I could not get it in that size with the usual contract term with Verizon. The Edge option for some reason was not available to me either, don't recall why.
But by buying it through Motorola credit, I could spread the purchase price over 12 months--kind of Edge lite. Then when my contract status changed over to month-to-month instead of the old-fashioned 2 year system, my line charges went down to $15 per month, as it would using the Edge option.

Automated deployments of Windows 7 on systems with multiple hard drives

Last week I helped a customer use MDT2010 to deploy Windows 7 to ThinkStation systems with multiple hard drives. The customer has multiple HDDs in the system and wants Windows to be installed to the HDD that is connected to SATA port 1. Unfortunately Windows does not always assign "Disk 0" to the HDD on SATA port 1 - in fact it is completely random what disk ID gets assigned to which SATA port. The bug is documented by Microsoft in KB937251:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/937251
MDT2010 uses hard-coded disk IDs (0, 1, 2, etc) to specify where Windows gets installed. And because of the bug, sometimes Windows gets installed to the HDD on SATA port 1 and sometimes it gets installed to a different HDD.
The solution is to install Windows to the HDD identified by the "SELECT DISK SYSTEM" command of DISKPART. This will always return the disk that is connected to the lowest SATA port.
To configure this in MDT2010, use the following steps (refer to the attachment):
1. copy "FormatPartition.txt" and "SystemDisk.vbs" to your Scripts folder in the Deployment Share.
2. in your Task Sequence, disable the existing step called "Format and Partition Disk" (see TaskSequence.jpg)
3. create a new step at the same location called "Format and Partition Disk (custom)". The type is "General -> Run Command Line". The command line is " cmd.exe /c "diskpart /s %SCRIPTROOT%\FormatPartition.txt" "
4. on the main screen for Deployment Workbench, right-click on the Deployment Share and select "properties", then click on the "rules" tab
5. under section [Default], add the following entries (see Rules.jpg)
    - UserExit=SystemDisk.vbs
    - DestinationDisk=#DiskID#
    - DestinationPartition=1
Hopefully this info will help someone else!

Major Problem with Multiple External Hard Drives! Watch Out!

I've almost completely given up on Aperture and gone back to Iphoto due to a major glitch in Aperture that actually cost me loss of some wedding photos (approximately 20)! Watch out for this, it is damaging.
I have 3 external hard drives, and of course when you mount disk images and cards you gain them in finder on the left hand panel. It seems the order of the mount is crucial to Aperture locating things and consequently if the mount order changes Aperture can no longer locate the files, and worse if you import to hard drive it doesn't import to anywhere!
The situation I have is that the other day I was importing wedding images and was up to the last card (fortunately we had 2 photographers so the loss isn't as detremental) and the power went off. Happens a lot where we are.
So upon power comeing back on the external hard drives remounting, I have figured out they mounted in a different order to what they were previously.
So upon going back to Aperture I went back to importing to the same external hard drive location. It had no warning of a problem and seemed to import without a problem. However once it had finished, on clicking on the thumbnails the images wouldn't load. I imported again and the same problem happened, however I didn't realise and had deleted the files. When I realised I tried to locate the files using spotlight. They are no where to be found!
Also because of the re-order of my hard drives aperture can't locate previously imported (referenced) files. I can find these ones on the hard drive, so I haven't lost them, but it will take unmounting and mounting several times in different orders to try and get them back because I do not remember which way they were mounted!
This is terrible! Aperture is a mess. This sort of thing shouldn't happen. Besides it's still too slow and it has slowed my production time substantially. The only thing it has over Iphoto is it doesn't degrade the JPEG each adjustment. However in Iphoto this is negligable, it can't be noticed, and I am not going to sacrifice time, lost photos for a minute level of extra quality.
Aperture get your act together. I wasted my money back when I purchased the full price 1.0 version.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Hardly high and not mighty.
But, to your points.
It sounds like you do have a UPS, not a surge protector, though it probably provides this in addition.
The fact that your external drives dropped during import is the same as removing a drive without unmountingf it, yes? Who knows what state the inode/allocation tables look like and no surprise that any clusters part updated were dropped. They'll rebuild from the cast complete mirror, but in-flight changes would not necessarily have been written to both sets of tables.
I cannot understand why (for you) Aperture appears to need the drives mounting in the same order. Disk Utility may show something, but I suspect you tried this.
However, and this I do challenge, the fact that you blamed Aperture and stated categorically it behaves a certain way when it does so only under some odd or errored hardware condition is not the thoughful optinion of an experienced Mac user. I wish you no offence but despite what you observed and your experience, I do wish to correct your sweeping statement.
The other comment I would challenge is that "I'm writing for people to watch out for and to trial ..." I would agree with that statement if that was any part of the context of the original post. No, your original post was far more negative and accusatory.
Your other new comments are clearly based on issues causing you angst. I have felt most of them, but at the end, it is software. Perfect? No, but I haven't had a crash since 1.5.1. Far from perfect? Yes, and many features missing that may be added in v2, v3, v.... . Best for my purposes despite its faults? Yes, by far. It is the fastest and most productive way for me to get to end-of-job.
Now my question for you since: what in your view is a superior alternative? Many on this forum are professional/serious amateur photographers who want some software company to succeed. Perhaps the reason we contribute to the Aperture forum is because we've found it the best horse to ride and therefore want to see it improve.

Any problems using diskutil createRaid with multiple external drives

Thinking of connecting 3 - 1tb drives Via FireWire and using diskutil createRaid.

jimgilbride wrote:
Thinking of striping across all three 1tb drives for a 3tb virtual drive that can be mounted and used for storage, but one change though will be using USB 2.0 instead of FireWire. I think I would be using RAID-0.
USB 2 is rather slow interface, the RAID 0 would make little difference. Firewire 800 would be fastest, 400 next.
Problem with RAID 0 is the data path is separated, one of those drives has a problem and you lose data on all drives. Some people use external RAID 0, but merely as a "scratch disk" or temporarily as they are working on it in a program like Photoshop or similar for faster performance.
For permanent storage, RAID 0 is very poor and highly risky unless you also have it being backed up daily or using a RAID 0+1 which the RAID 0 set is "mirrored" (RAID 1) at the same time to another drive or another RAID 0 set, thus giving a live backup in case the one RAID 0 fails, which they tend to do more often the more drives are added to the array.
In your case a RAID 0 of three drives has the 3x potential of failure than using one drive (spindle)
Another issue is RAID 0 (RAID 1 as well) via Disk Utility is software based RAID, OS X handles it, thus there is a higher potential for failure than hardware based RAID sets. OS X tends to hiccup and if it does, so does your RAID set.
Another problem with RAID 0 is that you need the storage drive your transferring from to also be a RAID 0 in order to gain maximum speed of the interface (FireWire 800, Thunderbolt) transferring or else when you transfer files you default to the fastest speed of the slowest drive, likely meaning your internal hard drive.
You could set up two exact drives on the same interface, RAID 0 those, use it as a working diisk. Then use something like Carbon Copy Cloner to auto-update the RAID 0 to the 3rd drive nightly. This would give you the backup of the RAID 0 you need, unfortunately you will be confined to 1TB of drive space available of the 3rd drive.
Disk Utility doesn't support the more complex RAID sets, like RAID 5, 10 etc., that dedicated hardware and external controllers can do. RAID 5 with a lot of drives will give the performance and redundancy, in fact if a drive dies you just replace it and it's auto-matically rebuilt from the data on the other drives. Sweet.

Windows XP Using iTunes with Multiple Identities

Hi. I'm using Windows XP and iTunes 7. I have my music files on an external drive, but all my library files are in My Music folders. I'd like to share all the music with other users of this PC (my kids) from their own identities. I was able to import the music, but album artwork that iTunes does not have that I imported on my own does not shows up on the new identity.
Also, I am guessing that, if I add a song with the original identity, it will not show up in iTunes with the new identity unless I add the library, folder, song, etc.
Is there a proper way to share iTunes music on the same PC with multiple identities?
In advance, thanks for your help.

hiya!
hmmmm. it might well be the Windows Fast User Switching causing his problem (although he isn't getting the usual problem i see associated with Fast User Switching):

Attempting to do private browsing session froze Firefox, then won't restore one of the 2 windows I had open (with multiple tabs in each). Only 1 window is able to be restored now.

I had 2 windows open in Firefox. Each had multiple tabs open in each window. I then attempted to do private browsing session, but then a pop-up box appeared asking me something about a script (related to private browsing). This froze Firefox. So I had to close Firefox using ctrl-alt-del. I tried to re-open Firefox, but only one of the windows will restore now (with the tabs that were previously open). I clicked on "History" in the menu bar and the "Recently Closed Windows" phrase is grayed out. Is there a way to go about restoring this window? I considered doing a restore to 3 days ago in my History tab, but I am worried that this will erase all the bookmarks I've made in the past 3 days. I've also considered going manually into history and trying to forage through each, but many of these tabs have been open for about a 3-4 weeks now as I've been keeping them all open for research. So they would be buried under hundreds-thousands of other pages. (I've done a lot of browsing). Should I just call it a loss? I appreciate any help.

I removed add-on BetterPrivacy. No problems since then anymore.

Users with multiple primary email addresses

I have some users that have multiple email addresses. I need to keep these email mailboxes completely separate. I do not want proxy email accounts all going into one inbox. So, how can I create multiple mailboxes for the same user ([email protected] and
[email protected])? I need userA to log into each email account separately. I basically need a way for the system to see these as two different users all together, the problem being the username login only uses the userA
portion and not the whole address. Any help would be appreciated.

User A can have one mailbox associated with his ID. You can create other "User A" mailboxes with different names and e-mail addresses as shared mailboxes and grant User A full mailbox rights and send as right. User A can
then connect to each one of them separately.

De-authenticating users with multiple active sessions

Hi guys,
I haven't posted much, but I've lurked for a long time and, until now, always found
the answer to my questions, but this one has me stumped. I've implemented the
Session Timeout utility successfully,
but I would like to add another function that would exchange a transaction_id between
the user and the server, as mentioned
Re: diallow multiple logins.
When I try to use this new function, the initial cookie gets set and the value is
inserted into the table. However, when I try to navigate to a second page, the value
in the cookie is not the same as the value in the table. When I keep all of the records
and compare them to all of the set-cookie calls, it appears that the
table is being updated more often than the cookies. I would really appreciate some
input on this problem or another way to validate that the user is active in
only one session.
Thanks,
Art
This is the process to create the initial cookie on Page 101-->
declare
l_magic_number number;
l_new_number number;
begin
select to_number(to_char(sysdate, 'WDDHHMISS')) into l_magic_number from dual;
dbms_random.seed(l_magic_number);
l_new_number := dbms_random.random;
delete from transaction_cookies where trans_user = owa_cookie.get('LOGIN_USERNAME_COOKIE').vals(1);
insert into transaction_cookies (trans_user, transaction_id)
                  values (owa_cookie.get('LOGIN_USERNAME_COOKIE').vals(1), l_new_number);
owa_cookie.send(
      name    => 'HTMLDB_SESSION_TRANSACTION',
      value   => to_char(l_new_number),
      expires => null,
      path    => '/',
      domain => null
end;And the validation function is here-->
function check_transaction_id return boolean as

        from   transaction_cookies
        where trans_user = user_name;

    end;
    user_id := owa_cookie.get('LOGIN_USERNAME_COOKIE').vals(1);
    open c_select_number(user_id);
    fetch c_select_number into l_selected_number;
    close c_select_number;
    if l_cookie_exists and l_cookie_number <> l_selected_number then
        delete from transaction_cookies where trans_user = user_id;
        OWA_COOKIE.REMOVE(

Art - Thanks for the detailed problem description (with code). The problem you're seeing is due, in part, to the fact that an application's session verification function is run on every page show and page submit. Based on your function's logic, when you show a page, a cookie is sent (after you purge the table and do an insert). Then you submit the page and it runs again, purging the table, inserting a new value into the table, and sending that value in the cookie. Then the page branches to the next page (usually doing a URL redirect. Here's where it messes you up. Whenever a redirect is done, apex clears the HTTP header, so the cookie doesn't get to your browser. When the next show page request is handled (as a result of the branch), the function checks if the browser's cookie matches the value in the table. It doesn't.
The solution will involve having the function not do its thing if a page "submit" is being processed. There might be better ways to detect this but here is some could you could try:    if owa_util.get_cgi_env('REQUEST_METHOD') = 'GET' and
       lower(owa_util.get_cgi_env('PATH_INFO')) = '/f' then ......which would be true for show requests only (f?p URLs). I have to tell you though, that with some of the newer request types (ppr pagination, csv/fop output, on-demand/ajax invoked processes, ...), you may have to tinker quite a bit.
Also, in your code I see you use the LOGIN_USERNAME_COOKIE cookie to identify the user. This will not be reliable if a user is using the same browser to run more than one application. You really should use v('APP_USER') to identify the user (authenticated or not). And if your user is running multiple apps in the same browser, your other cookie needs a name unique to the application lest one app's cookie overwrites the other's.

PEAP Windows Logon -Machine & User Authentication -Multiple VLANS

Windows Client <==> Access Point <==> Radius <==> Windows DC/AD
Windows OS : XP Client SP 2
Supplicant : Built-in Wireless Supplicant
Authentication : 802.1x PEAP(MS-Chapv2)
Access Point : Aironet 1200
Radius : ACS 3.3
Adaptors : Built-in
CA : Microsoft
I have a single SSID and am using a RADIUS server to assign users to different VLANs. When a computer boots up, machine authentication is used and the ACS tells the access point which VLAN to be on (i.e. VLAN1 192.168.1.x). Then when the user logs on the ACS tells the access point to switch the computer to a different VLAN (i.e. VLAN2 192.168.2.x). The problem is that the windows logon scripts do not run. Once the computer finishes booting, I quickly check its IP address and it still thinks it is on 192.168.1.x (VLAN1) when it is actually on VLAN2 and needs a 192.168.2.x address. If I give the machine time, it will eventually switch its IP to the 192.168.2.x address.
Has anyone else run across this? I assume that there is no fix and that it is a Microsoft problem. Obviously, it can't do the logon script if it does not have a valid IP for its VLAN. I also never know who will be logging into the computer to put the computer in the correct VLAN ahead of time.
Note: If the machine and user are both set to use the same VLAN, the computer does not have to switch IPs and the windows logon script works fine.
Thanks
Steve

Hi there.
I've tried that solution, and I had a similar problem. My problem was on the DHCP server side: there was a superscope defined with the different scopes for each VLAN. When I'd the MAC Address from one machine registered at the DHCP database, the settings were always the same. Then I deleted the superscope and only defined scopes for each VLAN. It's working fine now.
Hope this helps you.

João

HELP!~ new mac user with MAJOR external hard drive/iTunes problems

Hi everyone,
I hope you can help me out. I just got my new Powerbook Pro 2.0. It is really nice, but I am having a **** of a time with iTunes. I had an old Sony Viao and my friend turned me on to mac. So here I am, new computer and new 80G iPod. I have 120G of music on my external hard drive that played music right from the HD on my Vaio with no problems (until I upgraded to iT7.0, then the music ran choppy, but thats another issue). No, thinking that the Mac and iTunes will work perfectly together, I plugged in my External HD, turned on all the equipment, the mac finds the HD and I can see the music. Good. So, I change the location on the preferences to find the music on the ExHD and nothing. Then, I read all the forums and all and try EVERYTHING, moving the .xml file to the dektop, restarting iTunes, changing the location again, NOTHING works. I am about as frustrated as I can be. With over 26,000 songs that I cannot listen to.... I am about to regret this discision to get the mac. Any ideas? I also tried copy the files in the iTunes folder on the mac to the folder on the ExHD, but i don't know how on mac (there is no copy and paste command when you right click the mouse). I know my frustration is because I am new and dont know all the tricks yet.
I wish I could just call my buddy, but I am in Afghansitan fighting the taliban and he is in Hawaii. Any help is GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks
MBP 2.0 Mac OS X (10.4.8) Brand New Mac user.......

Select your ext HD and do a key board command - CMD+I (Get Info - File Menu). Under the Ownership & Permissions tab - do you have read and write access? If not give yourself that access. You may be prompted for your admin password.
If your ext HD is the same one you used with the Vaio then I am thinking your ext HD is formated as a FAT32 and not a NTFS. Mac can read NTFS but not write to a NTFS format disk. If it is FAT32 then Mac can read and write. If it is a HFS+ format (Mac format) then there is no issue of read and write unless the disk is locked.
To copy files from one HD to anorther on a Mac - all you need to do is select and drag to the new location.
Check the Help Menu's of iTunes and the Finder. There is wealth of info built into your Mac OSX.

Sharing Windows printer on PC with multiple users

I am sharing a printer attached to a Windows PC over a wireless home network. I added the printer to my mac (OS X) by using my windows uers id and password. However, the pc in question has another regular user. I want to configure the printer utility on the mac to recognise another Windows user and password in addition to the one already in the keychain. That way I can print from the mac whoever is logged onto Windows. I have tried to add it manually using the advanced options to add via SAMBA but that didn't work. Any sugggestions?

I worked this one out for myself. it doesn't matter which Windows user is logged on to the PC- the access to the printer still works. I was having problems because of the Norton firewall on the PC

How do you setup multiple users with multiple devices on itunes?

I'm trying to find the easiest solution to our family music situation. 4 users, 4 devices (ipods, ipad, imac, pc laptops), and 4 different musical song interests. I'm sure there are millions of households that have the same exact situation. I want to be able to pull up only my musical library, not my kid's music, and then easily synch it to my ipod. Everyone in the family wants to do this same thing. I have spent alot of time trying to search the forums/internet and there does not seem to be one "most popular" solution. I did setup iCloud for each family member using a different Apple ID than my main Apple ID, and I'm happy that ALL the music shows up on my ipad. But between iCloud, MobileMe, Home Sharing it all gets very confusing. Some say to setup multiple computer login accounts, and others say to setup 1 playlist for each family member and synch from that playlist.
I would think 1 itunes account allows you to easily share a purchased song with 4 users, instead of buying songs twice.
So here are a few of my questions-
1-Is it best to have only 1 itunes account and then synch all devices off of 1 main computer?
2-Or since we each have iCloud accounts, will they be able to synch their ipods from their own pc laptop?
3-And when they synch, what is the easiest way to exclude other users music in itunes? (other than unchecking hundreds of artists)
4-Or setup 4 separate computer login accounts on the imac and then keep 1 itunes account? If so, how does this work when they open itunes?
Again, I'm hoping for a straightforward simple solution. I don't want to move & create libraries, download 3rd party software, etc. etc. Please reply if you found something that works for your family. Thanks in advance.

turingtest, I do have a couple questions.
Number one, does everyone in your family only sych their ipods from only 1 computer? If everyone only uses itunes from 1 computer I can see how that will work. But what if kids want to use itunes for windows? Will "Home Sharing" allow all their music purchased on the MAC, to be also displayed on their itunes for windows laptop? I noticed you have PCs and also an ipad. How do you manage your family's music on these devices?
Also, how did you first get everyone's music library into their own library? Drag & drop? Is the "grouping field" you mentioned under "view", then "view options"? What does this do?
Thanks.
Sorry I missed your post earlier. Normally I follow up on any replies. This one must have fallen off the page on a busy day.
As my kids have left home I have created for them a complete clone of the familiy library, then deleted the tracks from it they don't want. Over time their libraries will divirge, but if needs be they can still update their devices using the library at home. Handy when eldest's kit was stolen.
Grouping is just another property, useful because it isn't generally overwritten by other software but is stored in the tags, so preserved when you copy files from one place to another. You can make the column visible and edit for multiple tracks in Get Info. Some software calls the same field "mood" or "sub-genre". iTunes has a specialist purpose for it generally used with classical music, but it doesn't seem to work very well for that and I don't use it that way.

Hiya,
quite a lot has the same confusions as you do, so I've written a simple explanation on the subjet of certificates

Let me know if that helps you and if you need further assistance.

Exchange 2010 - Selecting display names for users with multiple mailboxes

Hi all,
This isn't so much of a problem, but more of a "What is the best way to handle this" sort of thing.
I have a client with Exchange 2010 and multiple domains. Because they must be able to send as each domain, I have them setup with individual accounts/mailboxes for each domain. We're at a point that they have three domains which means three accounts per
user and three listings in the GAL. Their original accounts shows up as Smith, John. The second domain added shows up as First last. I'm at a loss what to use for the third. They want each account to show up in the GAL so that other users can send account
specific stuff to them if needed, but I'm trying to figure out how to keep this relatively organized and not make the name on outbound emails too convoluted.
Any suggestions on a format I can use that will make these accounts stand out from each other in the GAL, but not be a hot mess on the recipient end either?
