I am still struggling with how to sync my (lightroom) image files between my iMac and MacBookPro
I have bought the ChronSync software
A few questions:
1). DNG or RAW - what's the latest opinion - should I convert all to DNG - does that mean that there will no longer be any "sidecar" files meaning that all the (valuable) metadata will now be stored in the file.
2). Which, (names and extensions), are the Lightroom files which store all the adjustments made in LR - if I identify all the LR files that are generated in the process(es) that happen in LR - can I sync these files between two computers or is there something stopping this happening, (within the files)
3). A MAC Question - ChronoSync will not access some of the files on my MacBookPro - it is basically telling me that "I do not have (all the) permissions to access" - I have marked both Hard Disks, (iMac and MBP), as "sharing" and specified the names of the users that can share these files - but still no joy - is there anything else that I need to do to allow sharing between two Macs?
4). Can anyone identify ALL the files that I need to locate to copy a "Lightroom" "adjusted" image from one LR application to another LR applications
Thanks
(PS - I did start another thread with similar LR (backup) question - but it never got into SPECIFIC file detail)
