Here in England, I shoot a great deal of football (ie soccer) games, and I use Lightroom to rapidly trawl through a few hundred photos looking for any that I might even have got in focus. :) I have accidentally discovered that the ` key (to the left of Z on the Mac keyboard) will pick a photo, and then pressing it again will remove the pick! So my left thumb can pick/unpick, zoom in/out and reject, and along with Photo>Auto Advance, I can zip through my photos at the rate of knots. As I say, sorry if you've already spoke about this one, but I thought I'd mention it just in case. Keep up the good work. Geoff Hi Matt,

Not really a comment to your tip, – but here’s one I found; apologies if you have covered this one before, but it sure saves me time.

You probably feel, like I do, that if somebody else did it you'd like to understand it and know how to do it yourself. It's fun though, isn't it, working on something until you figure it out? That AHA! moment is worth all of the effort (well, usually). Thanks for this tip and for ALL of the stuff you do for us. I really appreciate it. Bill Matt,

In Windows Xp you can navigate to where all your presets & templates are stored(along with the Lightroom Defaults) by right clicking on one of your custom presets & clicking on "Show in Explorer". The path is: C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Adobe\Lightroom Then just copy the whole lot or just what you want. When you reinstall Lightroom under Windows7 just navigate to wherever W7 stores Lightrooms application data & copy across what you need. I am unfamiliar with both Vista & W7 but I presume that there should be no compatibility issues. A custom template or preset works cross platform( mac to pc & vice versa) so I doubt whether Windows7 will have any recognition difficulties. Hope this Helps David,

Therefore I am sending this and hopefully you can direct me to the proper place. I am doing a complete install of Windows 7 ( poor me, sorry I'm not up to switching to a MAC quite yet) and was wondering how to make sure that I don't lose my presets. Can I just save the folders that are listed in Lightroom ( ii. Develop presets, Export Presets) and then install or copy them to the correct folders after I reinstall Lightroom. Thanks for helping out....David Matt:
