that means should have both files , catalog on external drive, , plug in external drive alternatively 1 or other computer.

are picture files on external drive ? if are, need copy catalog folder external drive, explained later,

otherwise, backup/restore external drive, choice restore on custom location.

(moving external drive similar moving computer)

 

moving catalog :

first locate catalog folder situated : menu / system info.

copy whole folder external drive.

in copied catalog, double click catalog.pse12db file, open organizer , new catalog. appear in 'custom location' section in catalog manager.

 

backup , restore solution : restore on 'custom location', new master folder created on external drive.

 

the first time using catalog on either computer, you'll have use catalog manager (file / catalog...) browse external drive location of catalog. after that, location remembered in each computer.
