catalogs on multiple disks
« on: May 12, 2025, 09:35:19 AM »
Following up on my disk change described in other posts, I've just synced all my image files from MouzonCloud 24 (my main work disk) with Images 2023, a SSD I travel with for speaking gigs and such, like one out of the country later this week. If I also sync the catalog files will that work on the files on Images 2023 or will it be looking for images on MouzonCloud 24 that I won't have with me? Or if I can find the file Kirk noted earlier and copy it to Images 2023, will that fix the issue?

Do not put a .pmshare file from one disk onto another.

While you're away, the images on MouzonCloud 24 will be offline and proxies will be used to display any images that reside on that offline disk (you'll see yellow dots, indicating that they're not available).
