USING PHOTOSHOP LIGHTROOM 2 56 Managing catalogs and files Check catalog integrity Lightroom lets you check for catalog corruption when you open or back up a catalog. Checking catalog integrity increases the time it takes to open or back up a catalog, but reduces the risk of data loss. ❖ To check for catalog corruption, do one of the following: • Start Lightroom when a catalog backup is scheduled. In the Back Up Catalog dialog box, select Test Integrity Of This Catalog, and then click Backup. • In the General panel of the Preferences dialog box, select When Starting Up Use This Catalog > Prompt Me When Starting Lightroom. Start Lightroom. In the Select Catalog dialog box, select Test Integrity Of This Catalog, and then click Continue. Perform a catalog backup 1 Start Lightroom when a catalog backup is scheduled. 2 In the Back Up Catalog dialog box, choose one of the following: Backup Back up the current catalog. Skip Now Postpone the backup until the next time you start Lightroom. Backup Tomorrow When you've opted to back up your catalog once a day, you can choose to postpone the operation for a day. Backup In One Week When you've opted to back up your catalog once a week, you can choose to postpone the operation for a week. Backup In One Month When you've opted to back up your catalog once a month, you can choose to postpone the operation for a month. Restore a backup catalog 1 Choose File > Open Catalog. 2 Navigate to the location of your backed up catalog file. 3 Select the backed up .lrcat file and click Open. 4 (Optional) Copy the backed up catalog to the location of the original catalog to replace it. The Volume Browser The Volume Browser in the Folders panel provides information about the storage resources for the photos you're working with in Lightroom. The Volume Browser displays the name of each volume that contains photos in the catalog, as well as information about the volume resource. For example, it lets you see whether a volume is online or offline, and how much disk space is available. The Volume Browser updates dynamically as you import and work with photos in Lightroom. The colored LED to the left of the volume name indicates the availability of the resource: Green 10 GB or more of space is free. Yellow Less than 10 GB of space is free. Orange Less than 5 GB of space is free. Updated 03 September 2009
