I’ve recently come back from a trip where I did some editing on a laptop along the way. When I got back, I moved the files to my desktop computer, and did a bunch of editing.
I’d now like to update the laptop to reflect the edits. I’d use a transfer drive to do this, rather than a network connection.
Can I do this by just copy/pasting the .xmps from desktop to laptop, folder by folder?
Is there any follow up needed to update the database, or will that be done automatically?
I use the free version of a file/folder synchronization program, Synchredible, to mirror what is on one machine to another via a network connection; and also, to mirror from drive to drive.
It will duplicate exactly what is there, including any sidecars and any changes to any file.
It can be set to duplicate a single folder or an entire hard-drive.
