Ingest
« on: November 27, 2019, 06:15:42 AM »
Im running Catalina 10.15.1 and using PM6 build3954(158b808)

Since installation a few issues with the ingest Im using CF cards and CFast cards. Firstly Catalina now sees the CFast cards as an external hard drive and asks do I want to use it as a back up disk. Im only mentioning this in case it has relevance, I know this is a Mac OS issue. I click no to the question of using as an external drive to back up

PM6 cannot find the source directories to ingest using Cfast cards, I am having to drag them in manually to a folder and then caption. This also happens using a cf card. I have changed card readers and also cards without success.

I have attached a small iPhone video and also a screen grab of how I have the ingest set up although this has not changed from my normal workflow. Any help or to point out what a sap I am is welcome.

I think your video may have been to big for an attachment on the forums. Google Drive or Dropbox link?

You can run this command in Terminal to disable that prompt.

Code: [Select]
/usr/bin/defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine DoNotOfferNewDisksForBackup -bool true
