![]() ![]() I bought a SeaGate 4TB External Drive because I was running out of storage on my MacBook Pro and found out that it was possible to place my photo library in an external drive and so free up space. Is this a known issue? Any work arounds - or any other software I could use for importing those files?Ĭan not open a photo library on an external drive even though it opens when copied to hard drive Is there any way to fix not being able to open a photo library located on an external drive? I am 99% certain it is that the Photos app doesn't like RAW as if I change the camera to only save JPEG, no crashes happen at all. Once imported, there are zero crashes when opening the Photos app and accessing the RAW/JPEG files in the library. If I click on Reopen Application on the crash prompt, it 100% then opens fine and I can import in the media. Whenever I connect my SD card up to my SanDisk Extreme PRO SD UHS-II USB-C Card Reader, I can use Finder to view the videos and open the photos manually, but if I open the Photos application, about 80% of the time, the application will crash or if it opens, and I click on the drive, it then crashes. I am using RAW+JPEG files (saves both to the SD card) - writing to a SanDisk Extreme PRO 128GB SDXC. I own a MacBook Air M1, 16GB Ram and 512GB NVMe and my DLSR is a Sony A6400. I'm new to Apple Macs so forgive me if I can't answer everything (usually as I haven't worked out how to get the information). MacOS BigSur 11.4 - Native Photos App - Crashes when using SD card Hi all, Total Number of Cores:đ0 (8 performance and 2 efficiency) After 10 minutes of an action I stop the process.īy comparison the old MacBook Pro would've open photos even with large libraries in a few seconds and could have imported the entire SD card in a matter of five minutes max. Thinking perhaps I had asked too much of it to download the entire SD card I asked it if you could download five photos. After five hours it had imported 45 photo and then it stopped importing. I went to import some photos into the empty library using the SD card reader built into the computer. Again nothing happened for 10 minutes digging deeper into activity Monitor I saw numerous hangs. So I told photos to create a new library on the internal 1 TB hard drive in the new MacBook Pro. It was apparently looking for the library it was on an external hard drive attached to my other MacBook Pro. Eventually (over ten minutes) I got a prompt saying that Photos couldn't find the library. I did a Forced quit, restarted the computer and again tried to open photos. Checking activity monitor it said, "photos not responding". When I went to open photos for the first time nothing happened for a very long time. After migration, I did all the new updates. ![]() ugh.Recently purchased a new Apple MacBook pro to replace my aging Apple Macbook Pro. I feel that some how in my initial set up of LR I did something wrong that is making all theses dup's and sometime I have 3 of the same image. zip file and each one is only around 48MB. So i'm very confused because on my Mac in the Documents area/ Pictures/Lightroom Catalog.lrcat its only 443MB and when LR ask me if I want to backUp I do and those end up in same area on my Mac as a. As I worked thru PhotoSweeper I used the most critical setting "absolute duplicate". So I copied them back out of the trash to another HD's desktop just for safety before I empty the trash. So I deleted out of LR/Photo/Delete Rejected Photo's and into the trash they went, as I thought. I keep all my RAW images on an internal 1TB HD only for images only. psd's I had worked on in Aperture (Oh how I miss Aperture) and jpg's and I ended up with 17,419 Duplicates. Well all I can say for my primitive brain is that I must have set up LR on my Mac incorrectly because in my Photography Folder in LR I had 34,459 images thats counting RAW. ![]()
