[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 199938, member: 9521"] A couple of things I've learned about Lightroom over the years that I feel are important enough to share - Choose the option "automatically write changes to XMP" under the catalogue settings. This way you will always update the changes permanently and will not have to remember to run saves in order to write the info to the file. It may cause you to wait a few minutes before closing out LR after doing a lot of work on your images but this is minor to the downside of losing all your changes if your catalogue becomes corrupt. - Set your "Back up catalogue" option to once a day. You can always opt to skip the back up if you've not made a lot of changes but it's a very good idea to back it up often. Your catalogue can become corrupt fairly easily and it only has to happen once for you to realize what a pain it is to go back and redo all your changes [/QUOTE]
