Julieanne, I appreciate your calm and professional manner. Everything went fine for me. Thanks and cheers from rural Germany to California.
Thanks Julieanne, looking forward to future tutoring sessions
It worked really well for me. I wasn't sure when it came time to load the presets as there was already a folder by the same name. I deleted the folder that was there and pasted my folder in so there wouldn't be a duplicate. Worked great. It found my photos on the external hard drive. No finding missing files necessary. Thank you Julianne!
Thanks for the video :)
it is absolutely remarkable that it is this complex to move from one computer to another. I can migrate my whole phone ecosystem with all its apps and user settings using one log-in and 15min wait. but lightroom needs me to manually copy paste 10 different impossible to guess folders and files between two computers.
Welcome to Adobe!
You are comparing apples with oranges.
Very timely video as I’m just about to switch over to a new computer. Thanks very much!
Thanks for sharing Julieanne, just bought a new MAC Mini, I thought it would be easier tbh, so glad I watched this first!
I had the pleasure to meet you at The Photography Show in Birmngham, England recently (we were introduced by my mate Dave Clayton) it was great to get to chat with you. Keep up the good work! 😎
Thank you for this! This helped me transfer my catalog from my old PC to my new laptop!
Wonderful video. Walked through the process with you step by step. All happy on my new computer.
Dear Julieanna, that was the perfect help.Thanks a lot
Thank you, just had to do exactly this exercise, and following this , I learnt a lot, and saved a lot of time. Good reason to Subscribe. Thank You
Thank you for this video, This helped me a lot.
Great video, I am struggling with keeping my old Preset Folders in my new computer. I can get all the presets in there, but they aren't staying in the folders that I have on my old computer. Any thoughts?
This has been very helpful, thank you
Thank you very much, it helped big time.
Thank you so much for this video! It worked for me, i simply moved the catalog over w/out the edits and i was confused on how to properly move to my new device.
Do you know how to also move the developer edits as well? i believe mines were lost in transfer only on 4 folders strangely, i can't even find them on the source computer :(
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. 🙏
Thanks for this! If I have missing images or folders but they are all on external drives, can I export my catalogue and just find the missing folders later?
Will it carry over the ! ghost folders?
I literally want to cry..... I just had all my files transferred 2 days ago by Best Buy, and the files were there, I just had no idea you were supposed to set all this stuff up first, so now I've done everything wrong. My pictures are viewable under "Pictures, but there's no folders or subfolders anymore". Then, I just tried reverting back to the last back up and that wiped out what little folders I had been able to bring back. I just want to scream and get my old LR back! Do you or anyone do private video chats to walk through this? It's a brand new Dell....sigh....
Thank you
I purchased Lightroom 6 a few years ago and never had time to use it on my old PC. I now have a new PC and would like to use it on my new PC, but it won't let me install it using the DVD I purchased. Adobe tells me to be sure all Adobe programs are up to date (which they are). Any suggestions?
Does this apply to normal users of the desktop version (Lightroom 6/non-cloud) ?
Thank you Julieanne for the informative video. I wish my case was this simple. So I am currently running LR 11 on my old iMac with iOS Catalina. Just my bad luck that my photos are on a Drobo external drive, which is not supported on my brand new Mac Studio. So my question is: would you suggest doing the migration connecting a new external drive to the old iMac and LR 11 and copying everything from my Drobo drive through my LR 11 current version, and then launching the new drive on my MacStudio with LR 14? I guess I'm asking for more help when the migration includes hard drive and computer migration with different versions of LR... Thank you!
Unfortunately the Development Presets are NOT transfered all this way. I have dozen of Preset Groups in my old Mac computer and only 15 preset groups are included in the "Setting" folder. I doesn't matter if I import the files in the settings folder or copy the whole folder over. Only 1/4 of the preset groups are accessible on the new computer. Especially the "Favorites" are NOT going to be transferred. This is really strange and must be a kind of bug. Any idea, how I can transfer ALL Development Presets?
I found another folder called "importedSettings" which also needs to be transferred 😃
Adobe, please find a way to make this process easier
Does adobe make you uninstall the copy of lightroom classic on my current laptop before installing it on the new?
You shouldn't have to uninstall, but you would want to sign out of Creative Cloud (or under the Help menu in LrC) on your old computer if you're not going to use it anymore.
Great video and timely too as I am migrating to a new laptop.
