How to "sync/clone" LR or LM on two computers?

[graffjamie]

Are there any shortcuts or easy ways to "sync" or "clone" LR or LM on two computers? It takes a very long time to load files on either system - is there any way to speed or automate the process - and LR records how many times you show each file (I don't want to lose that data when I switch computers).

We are traveling with our son (born Nov 2008) to NY and Philly to take in the sights (and so that I can attend the Doman "How to Multiply Your Baby's Intelligence Course".) I was hoping to "clone" both programs onto a laptop and take them with us.

Thanks for all of your time and effort.

Hi graffjamie,

Unfortunately, there's no way to automate the process in the way you're describing, outside of the ability to export your whole library into a single file for ease of portability.

These features will be revisited as we continue to improve our software in future iterations however, so keep your eyes peeled!

Cheers,

How do I export my whole library into a single file? Can I then import that file into the next computer?

Thanks for absolutely everything! (Brill Kids is the best new source for child education that I have ever heard of!)

You just need to select and highlight more than one file at a time.

You can do this with the standard Windows controls for selecting multiple items - hold down Ctrl while you select items one at a time, or Shift to select multiple items starting from the current selected item and ending with your second click.  So you could click on the first item, hold down Shift, then click on the last item - all items would be selected.

Thanks!! Works great!
