LRC on two computers

Community Beginner ,
Jan 09, 2025 Jan 09, 2025

     I have a Mac desktop that I have been using for Lightroon  Classic. I now have a Macbook that I will be using s well when away from my desktop. The big issue for me is the question of the catalog on the Macbook. Can I use the same catalog on BOTH computers? I would have to get the Lrcat files on to the new computer I know, and to start with, I will NOT need to bring over previous photos from the desktop. I would be starting on the Macbook with new photos. With that in mind, after getting my NEW photos on to the Macbook by importing from an external (either a thumb drive or other small portable external drive), can I edit , then when back at desktop, import to the desktop LRC having fully or partially edited  the photos? Ill probaby have more questions re the catalog after. Thank you in advance- Jeremy.
