A while ago I wrote a post about how I use Dropbox to sync my Adobe Lightroom catalog across multiple computers. This worked fine until I started using a Mac OS X Lion system, actually at the moment of writing I want to sync between two Mac OS X Lion systems. (The next section contains useful info for Windows users too!)
Maybe you should read my previous post before reading the next section.
It seems that Mac OS X handles symbolic links a little different than Windows 7 does. On Windows I stored the catalog in the Dropbox folder and created a symbolic link to another location on my harddrive, let’s say c:/lightroomcatalog. By doing this I managed to get the Lightroom previews cache folder to be created in c:/lightroomcatalog and NOT being synced to Dropbox. The catalog itself was synced to Dropbox because of the symbolic link.
