Thank you! Yes, I was planning to continue with Adobe LR/PS also. Do you shoot RAW or Jpeg? I understand that ON1 is good for Jpeg too....I've not shot RAW, but may start.

I use all three - they complement each other nicely.

I may try it, but will probably also keep LR/PS as well.

I use On1 Photo Raw and have been pleased with the results. In the spirit of full disclosure I will say that I recently subscribed to the Adobe LR/PS photography bundle and that will probably be my goto photo editing tool going forward. There are other choices out there that you may wish to consider such as: CaptureOne, DxO, Luminar and Affinity. Most offer free trials of various sorts. Each has their fans and detractors.

Hoping some of you might give your advice/opinions on ON1....I currently use LR/PS ($10 per mo), however, mostly LR, as I am not very proficient in PS. ON1 has caught my eye (looks very user friendly) and they have a promo through tomorrow.

Curious to hear what you all think.

Thank you!

Anyone familiar with, or use, PortraitPro?
I primarily use LR (& PS when I need to...although I’m not very advanced with PS).

I wouldn't just move the program, I would reinstall it. As long as you don't move your images, it should keep track of everything. You will have to open the original catalogue, however. I'm sure others will hop in here and give you additional advice, tips.


The problem with reinstalling is that I don’t think it keeps my presets.

Keep Lightroom in your internal drive, it does not take up that much room, and it will load faster and upgrade itself faster. You can keep your images on a fast SSD external hard drive. Your images will take up vastly more memory than will your program.


Thank you for your advice. So currently, again, since I got my new desktop iMac, I loaded LR program onto external. If I now want to transfer all of that to my iMac, guessing I just move it from the external drive to my new iMac?
Sorry- initially, I was getting confused (even tried to talk with Adobe help several times, but they didn’t seem to have answers)....now I’m trying to remember what the issue was- I think it was that none of my pre-sets came up when I opened LR on new computer, & I was hoping not to have to re-install all of those into LR on new computer.

Joe, you'll get workable responses to your dilemma. If it were me, I'd put the catalog/previews/images on an external drive and move the drive to whichever system I would be working on. That assures only one copy of the image you're working on.


Question- I have recently put my LR program on an external hard drive (trying not to fill up my new Mac (1TB). When LR has an upgrade, can I just plug in my external HD & upgrade to that? Thx for any advice 😊

Thank you sooo much!! That's what I thought I understood, but I get nervous when I delete!! Thanks again!

Yes, you can and should delete those back-ups. You only need one or two at the most. And more importantly, go into settings and seriously consider changing the frequency to once a week, not every time. Then, once a month or so, delete the back-ups down to the 1 or 2 ...

I'm sure a very elementary question, but I'm trying to find out if I can delete my older 'back-ups' that are saved every time I exit LightRoom (and keep just the most recent back-up) or if there is another option I should be doing? I seem to be running out of space on my laptop and I keep getting a message popping up to 'manage my files'....I have a lot of LR back-ups and I think that is taking up major space.
Thank you for any assistance/suggestions you can provide.

What was the actual problem and solution? Never had that happen to me , yet. Always nice to know what surprises lay lurking.


I couldn’t see any of my ‘collections’ - could only see ‘all photos’ (so they were all dumped together, not even categorized by dates. I think I hit ‘show filter bar’ under the View tab -not even really sure .... & I am now in the middle of some editing, so I don’t want to start hitting buttons!!

HELP!!
Hope someone can help me with this! I’ve been in LR today & was trying to add ‘key words’ to some of my ‘Collections’ (which were all labeled by date & named) i.e.:
2017-09-25 Australia
etc.
Now, I just re-opened LR & all my photos seem to be there (10K+) BUT they’re not showing up in the Collections (separate labeled collections) as they always did previously!!! Yikes!
PLEASE tell me there is something I can tweak to get them back to my original ‘viewing’??? I must have somehow ‘changed’ the view/setup??
I can see them in Library under ‘ all photos’, but they’re not ‘grouped’ together per dates as before.
Thank you for any help you can offer.
