Hi Joe,
did you find a solution to your mobile-home synchronisation and master storage problem? I’am very interested in this point as well.

Best,
Thomas

Hi-

Thanks for the explanation. I have a question: how would you integrate a macbook air that you carry with you on the road into the workflow you described? Is there a way to get the library on the MBA to sync with your main library, AND get the master files to be stored separately as you describe?

Thanks!

Thanks so much for your detailed info and now I get how everything works!!!
However, my biggest problem isnt how to operate the program but how do arrange things right!

As of now, my imac is running out of HD space because of all my raw pictures.
I have an external hard drive for back up (vault) and it still has 1TB left.
What should I do now? If I move all the master file to my external hd,
I cant use vault to back up all the referenced files anymore. If I leave all the masters
in my Imac, the storage is going out soon!

What would be the best way to work this out?!

Thanks!!
