This is much harder than it seems and I've not found a good way other than using a content aware fill into the area. Would also like to know how the experts deal with this common problem.

Unless you count dongles  🤨?

If you need a DAM and like to do things manually then LR is better. The adjustment brushes are so well developed and unlike many I think LR does a better job at noise reduction than Prime if you ...

As you have found there is no really satisfactory workflow involving the iPhone an Lightroom. I use the iPhone for most family and unplanned travel photos. They mainly stay on the phone. I also ...

Thank Nigel  that’s really helpful. I didn’t realise just how dark the shadows were in your classic view. Looks like the Rx100m4 would be best then. I’d love to take a full frame SLR but that ...

I’m making a trip up the Mekong in a few weeks. I usually take a Sony RX10M3 and an RX100M4 when I travel but do have Nikon DSLR’s which I usually leave behind. My question is whether the Sony ...

Agree. They did have a way to turn it off and on in terminal before. I’m assuming there are no diagnostic POST  beeps anymore either. So not sure why they have been removed.

No I googled the question and looked for Apple site answers first. Then when I couldn’t find a straight answer I looked at a few other otherwise reliable sites. I’ve been using DPreview a long time ...

Thanks very much  I’ll stop looking now.

I discovered that my new Macbook doesn't chime on start up. I have sound turned up full, not muted and speakers whether set as "selected audio device" or "Macbook speakers" does not make the start ...

Great article. A must read for anyone with a T2 Mac. Bookmarked for when I forget 👌 Thank you.

Right I've tested out mounting a bootable Super duper clone and it won't mount using restart with Option as it did on my 2011 MBPro. Following a restart with CMD R into Recovery mode again won't ...

Thank you noirdesir. Looks like a good plan.

Thanks Kieks for your interest and help. You have confirmed for me that Jons advice was the way to go. You have said the same. I have just backed up nearly a TB of data to my USB 3.1 Lacie HDD. ...

Hi John, I can now see the logic in having only one volume. Superduper won't back up more than one at a time. So I have decided to move my data back into the primary volume and delete the secondary ...

John, thanks for your further advice. I haven't partitioned my MBPro. I have two volumes on the APFS Disk. Whereas my LR catalogue is on the first volume the LR  catalogue backup is on the second. ...

Thanks JP Albert. See my response to John Bandry as for why I would prefer not to use a clone. I do have super duper but am not sure it will work with my MBPro which has the T 2 security chip.

Thank you. See my response to John Bandry re reasons for using double time machine. thank you also for showing me some sort of script I could use. Unfortunately I don’t understand Unix or where to ...

Thanks John. I think the time capsule slows down because firstly I take a lot of large raw wildlife images and backup the Lightroom catalogue after each shoot. That’s why I took off the data drive ...

Thanks John. its what I feared. The data volume is large and the time capsule slows down so much once it’s included. no problem on the usb 3.1 external hard disc though. maybe I should just use a ...
