According tot he PSE6 EULA, I’m allowed to install the software on two PCs on my home network. I keep all my photos on one PC and I’d like to use the same catalog with the other PC.
I know how to share the photos between the PCs. How do I get PSE6 to use the same catalog on both computers? The EULA doesn’t allow the catalog to be in use at the same time by both computers, and that’s fine, since I’ll be using one computer or the other.

thanks

I believe the OP did indicate they have a home network see "***" below

yes. On my home network.

I’m going to try this.

I’ve got the PE6 up on both computers and can access the catalog. When I try to modify a photo on computer "B", I get reconnect errors, since the catalog maps to the local drives on computer "A". Looks like I need to figure out how to get the catalog to read the network path \\computer1\\photos instead of the local path g:\photos.

The referenced link talks about backing up the catalog and photos and then restoring them to the network drive.
Is there an easier way?
