Hi Julieanne. Thank You very much. Your video was very helpful. I am grateful for the generosity of people like you who help us understand this technology. I feel it's a disgrace that a multi billion dollar company like Adobe does not do a better job with tech support and standing behind their products. Thanks once again. You're a big help! John

This may be "splitting hairs", but LR does not do actual "Incremental" backups - they are full backups of the catalogue, each and every time. If they were true incremental backups, each successive backup would contain only the changes since the last backup. As a result of each backup being a full backup, the folder used for backups can grow large over time, especially if you are set to backup each time LR exits. The one thing that I don't get is why hasn't the LR dev's incorporated a means to automatically preen the backup folder of older backups? I mean, if you've got 45 backups of your LR catalogue, are you really going to want to resort to a catalogue made 2 months ago, and loose everything you did to this point? And...if you're backing up as illustrated in the video, or better yet, using the 3-2-1 backup strategy daily, then why backup the LR catalogue yet again? It's a moot point. Here's what I do: All of my LR catalogues live in Dropbox - that way I can work on the same photos from multiple computers (smart previews) without having to sync anything. I also use the 3-2-1 backup strategy daily, and do no LR catalogue backups because I've already got them in 3 other places - 2 of those places are immediate backups through replication - one onsite and the other is offsite.

Ok, I have a complex question regarding back-ups. Here is how I work with my images and what I want to be backup. I download the images from the memory to the hard drive, I import them into LR and then edit them. When I exit LR, I do backup the catalog. I then go back into LR at a later time and finish my editing, once I'm satisfied with my edits, I export them to a .jpg file for web or a print. I also export my edited images as "original". When my computer's hard drive starts to get full, I back up my photos to an external drive. After doing this, I usually go back into LR and remove the imported files (since they are no longer on the computer's hard drive) and catalogs from LR. Now, here is my question, if I want to re-edit the photos at a later date, how do I backup the image so that I can re-import it into LR for additional editing while still retaining the edits that I have done in the past?

The elephant in the room is that along with the Catalog files themselves, LR stores hundreds/thousands of large prerendered images which help LR work faster when browsing Catalogs. So what? Well, these images don't actually need to be backed up as they are recreated as needed when the images in the Catalog are browsed in LR (though this does of course incur a performance hit the first time for each image) and these images make backups of the Catalog folders significantly slower and larger in size than they really need to be (depending on various factors). Alas LR offers no way to store them anywhere else (e.g. a scratch disk/folder like Photoshop) so if you don't want to back them up they need to be manually excluded from within your backup software, which is quite tedious to set up if you have multiple Catalog files as I do - I start a new one every year. This has always been an issue with LR and continues to remain unaddressed by the dev team... perhaps Julieanne will be kind enough to champion this internally so that LR users can make backups more quickly (and therefore probably more frequently & securely) while saving backup space/media/electricity/etc.

do all these external drives have to be hooked up all the time to do backups automatically? Or do you just use that image she drew to animate the workflow? For instance you work on a set of new photographs, wen you are done I'm assuming you back them up to external hard rive, than copy to 2nd copy of external hard rive, is she having her computer do this automatically?

Great video, but beware of using RAID as "back up". The problem with mirroring drives is that if you delete something accidentally, it's automatically also deleted from the other drive. It's not really a back up.

Thank you for a VERY clear and concise tutorial! Question: I have 8k photos in LR and growing fast and only 256 GB of HD space internally. Do you suggest having catalogue and photos located externally? Also if, as you have it, the catalogue is internal by photo library is external won't this have a hard time finding those photos to match? thx!
@W8rrfsdY73

You can store your catalog and photos on an external drive (large capacity as possible) and then devise a separate backup system for that external disk. This will conserve the space on your local (internal) drive which is better suited for applications and of course which you can't generally increase (if it's solid state)

I viewed and followed your instruction on your video of how to move photos to an external hard drive. I only moved 3 folders with 3 pictures in each as a test to make sure I was doing it correctly and it worked. What caused this problem to occur? The next morning the folders that I created on the external hard drive was not appearing above my current drive. I navigated to the my new drive thru Lightroom and the folders and photos were there. I was unable to view the photos thru lightroom but I was able to drag them back on to my main drive lightroom. What did I do incorrectly? Berlin

Julieanne, thanks for the backup discussion. Could you please clarify how to "drag and drop" to backup the Lightroom folder (the one from the Library folder with preset data, etc.) to the Creative Cloud? It doesn't seem like you can drag and drop a folder using either the CC interface on the computer or via the web. Thanks!

How do you create a dynamic backup of your lightroom library? I.e. I want to import my raw files as dng on my computer and build smart preview, then send the original dng files to an external hdd but in a way that let's me work on smart previews on my laptop and get the metadata synced with the dng files, and idealy, if I delete a smart preview from my lightroom library, it deletes the dng file from all locations. How do you that? I tried exporting my dng files via lightroom to an eHDD but that's no good, I tried exporting as a catalog, doesn't update the metadata like I would want it to

What a nightmare! Someone should create a computer program that could automatically go though the steps up of backing up your photographs and the changes you’ve made to them. Maybe a file management program that would automate the process. It’s not really a darkroom so you could call it brightroom or something like that. Probably wishful thinking, makes too much sense.
