This screencast will show you how to transfer photos between different Lightroom catalogs, and it will go beyond that by also demonstrating how the whole process could be made a LOT easier if Adobe wanted to.
In the screencast, I refer to an article I wrote a while back, entitled “The next stage for Lightroom“, where [...]
How do you handle a corrupted previews catalog in Adobe Lightroom? How do you identify the problem and solve it? I will show you exactly how to do it in this short screencast.

I’ve been having problems with meta-data entry in Lightroom, particularly the location meta-data. It’s not my computer that’s to blame. The problems exist on both the PC and Mac versions of Lightroom, although they’re more apparent on the Mac version.
When I first mentioned this on Twitter and Friendfeed (see here, here and here) I promised [...]

I am a happy user of Adobe Lightroom. It has helped me get a handle on my growing photo library. While it largely replicates the functionality of Adobe Bridge, it does so with a much better interface, and includes extra functionality that makes its price worthwhile. I do most of my photo processing in Lightroom [...]
» Go to this postThe latest version of Adobe’s Lightroom, 1.2, introduced corrections for several issues such as XMP auto-write performance, Vista grid display errors, and noise reduction for Bayer-patterned sensors (the majority of digital sensors on the market user Bayer patterns in their color pixel distributions). It also introduced support for new cameras such as the Canon EOS [...]
» Go to this postI photograph exclusively in RAW format these days — unless I happen to be using a camera that doesn’t have that capability. This post is a small but tangible example why shooting in RAW is a good thing.
Have a look at the photo below. That’s what happens when you combine dark streets, tall buildings and [...]
Well, it’s the one annoying thing that’s bothering me the most right now. I covered Adobe’s Lightroom in more detail yesterday. I like it overall, but I cannot put up with this: every time I apply an adjustment to a photo, it blurs it while it computes what it needs to do. If I use [...]
» Go to this postI’m too tired to write a long, coherent post tonight. I worked late today and got home pretty much exhausted.
I’ve started using Adobe’s new Lightroom yesterday to postprocess my photos, and I like it more than Bridge/Camera Raw. It has a ton more options, not only for developing RAW files, but also features that I’d [...]
After whetting my appetite for Office 12 by talking about native support for PDF formats last year, Microsoft now disappoints once more by announcing it will drop the option. Interestingly enough, it isn’t to blame. Adobe’s up in arms about this - they’re unhappy that Microsoft will not charge extra for the option to save [...]
» Go to this postJust installed Studio 8 on my laptop, and, to my surprise, Freehand wasn’t included in the package. I checked with a colleague who runs the Windows version just to make sure, and indeed, it’s been dropped. If that’s the first casualty of the merger between Adobe and Macromedia, I wonder what the next one will [...]
» Go to this postMacromedia and Adobe updaters stink.
Today I discovered that my Extension Manager doesn’t recognize that I’ve got Dreamweaver MX installed (even though I’ve got the entire Studio MX 2004). So, I took a deep breath and downloaded an update for Dreamweaver, and one for the Extension Manager.
Here I am now, after having run the Dreamweaver updater. [...]
