I've used various iterations of LR on a number of Macs over the years and was frustrated by how images were stored. I eventually moved to Aperture until Apple dropped thatvin favor of Photos, which just didn't work for me. I moved back to LR and got in an even bigger mess. I then signed up with The Lightroom Queen and got her book - 'the missing FAQs'.
All my problems had been of my own making, and largely due to the way I had images scattered all over my drives in no semblance of order. Using LR, I have moved all those images to an external drive and although not perfect my system now works pretty well. Ideally I should have started with a plan and built my image storage in the way that LR was set up, but I've been taking photos for forty odd years, and digital images for more than 16, so that wasn't an option.
I'd recommend the Lightroom Queen's book and website as she gives you a great insight into how LR works and how to make the best use of the program to get yourself in order!
I recently did a clean install of MacOS Sierra on my iMac and, having kept all my images on an external drive, made the transition relatively simply, with only a small amount of (excellent) help from Adobe support (again to solve problems of my own making!).
LR on a Mac does work well, but I'd recommend Lightroom Queen - no connection with me, other than being a satisfied subscriber.

Currently I use Nikon DSLR bodies (D610 and D7200) and am not looking to move away from that system. There are times when it is practical to travel with something lighter, and for years it was a Canon G9. About a year and a half ago I purchased a Sony A6000 to try to Replace the G9 with newer technology. For some reason, I could never really get comfortable with the Sony system so I sold it. Now I am looking at the Olympus brand, and either the PEN EPL7 or the OM D E M10. I am not looking to invest in a whole new system as I plan to continue using my Nikon bodies and lenses. Would any UHH members who have experience with the Olympus brand, and particularly the two models mentioned above, be willing to share some comments or recommendations on these bodies and favorite lenses? I shoot mostly family, landscape, grandchildren's sporting events, vacation photos, and sometimes street scenes. The new gear would be used mostly on family vacations, weekend trips, and street photography. Thanks for any comments, suggestions.

Quoted from CNET:

"No new MacBooks. No new iPads"

"It's kind of incredible that Apple is still selling a four-year-old MacBook Pro, and that its flagship MacBook Pro with Retina Display is still using Intel processors that are two to three years out of date. Mac users are getting understandably antsy about when, or whether, they'll be able to upgrade from older systems."

Apple has fallen behind and seems to have given up on the computer market. If I want a state of the art Lap Top that does not run Windows, what now? Linux?

My name is Chaxl; occasionally I'll post on here seeking advice on camera settings and/or techniques. In a few days my parents and I are going to Graceland and touring Elvis's mansion. being both the biggest Elvis fan and the photographer of the family, I don't want to use the wrong settings, especially when it's a 12 hour drive. Online I've read that photography is allowed throughout the house as long as there's no flash. My main question is what would be the most proper setting for indoor sots of the mansion without the flash. I don't own an SLR, but I am very satisfied with my Canon Powershot SX50. 90% of he time when I shoot, I use the 'Program' mode. Is this OK with indoor shots? Should my White Balance be on Florescence? What about my ISO as I don't want my photos to be grainy.

Thanks,, and any help would be much appreciated,
Chaxl
