Hi there !
I recently made the shift from Lightroom to Digikam but I have a problem using the same collection on an USB HD between two computers (one laptop with windows 10 and one mac mini with a larger screen).
I'm keeping these OS because I'm quite happy with the results and ease of use of DXO Photo Lab which runs on Mac and windows.
I read this thread :
http://digikam.1695700.n4.nabble.com/digiKam-users-DigiKam-and-multiple-computers-best-practices-td4705570.html
and I understood that the path should be exactly the same in Digikam Configuration / Collection settings.
It appears that between the two platforms it couldn't be since Windows name it "D:\Sauvegarde-1\Photos-Digikam" and Mac Os X "/Volume/Sauvegarde-1/Photos-Digikam"
Thus, I can't open or preview the files when the collection was set with the other OS. It says : «the storage location is currently unavailable»
Is there a way to solve this problem ?
Or should I use the same OS on my two computers ?
Maybe I should create two collections with the same folder on the two platforms ?
Maybe this question may have been asked before in the forum and I apologize if it had been the case.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Pierre
