    Lightroom Question

    Is anyone else using LR and PS from the Creative Cloud on more than one computer? Id so, can you tell me how you can access the same catalog(ue) from both computers? At the moment I run LR (mainly, PS less) from two laptops depending on whether I am working from home or abroad (a MacBook Pro 15" screen and an MacBook Air - which is a LOT lighter!) but I am running two catalogs. Is is possible to run the same one, and how would you access files - most of which are currently on separate hard disks anyway - but which maybe should be in the Cloud with CC.

    Any thoughts on workarounds for this gratefully received!

    Incidentally, I am sure all those hanging on to see whether CC Photo would be increasing in price will be pleased to have seen the announcement of a permanent photographer subscription!

    Thanks

    The easiest way is to store your catalogue in the cloud (Dropbox for instance), and then use that from each machine. So long as you set LR to produce reasonably sized previews you can work on the catalogue versions of the files perfectly well, and the changes will be applied back to your original images when you use the main machine (with the original images on its HDD).

    I've seen a tutorial on using just this setup, but can't recall where!

    You can also Sync to the Adobe Cloud (did you know that whilst early adopters of the $9.99 Photographers Bundle get 20Gb cloud storage, new ones get a measly 2Gb?) though I've not tried this method yet other than a quick look-see with my iPad.
