Batch rename is not working

I attempted to batch rename files in Adobe Bridge CC. Nothing happens. I force quit as Bridge will not quit on command (which is strange as Photoshop will). When I reopen Bridge the files have been renamed "AdobeBatchRenameTemp(than the file name I asked it to write)".
Any ideas what is wrong with Bridge? Thanks

Hi
Are you using Mac Or windows please mentioned some of the system specification as well as it will be helpful
if you are using mac . please go to a location ~/library/cache/adobe "there will a folder by the name of Bridge CC please move it to desktop and then restart the bridge. this should take care of the cache issue.
if you are using windows , please go this location C:\Users\user name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge CC and move the cache folder to the desktop
and restart the Adobe Bridge CC

Batch processing does not work with action

Here is the thing. I have implementes several action on Photoshop. SOme of the include several sub actions and different saving locations. For example, I open a file, then I hit my prefered key combo for that action, and I have:
1) convert to cmyk
2)save copy as JPG with 11 quality level
3) save to folder A
4) image size to 72 dpi
5) covert to RGB
6) save as JPG 6 quality level
7) save to folder B
8) close file and discard cahnges.
Everything runs like heaven, but the moment I want to batch several files everything stalls.
I choose file > Batch > Choose my set > choose my action
Source > I choose where my files are (usually a PDF)
then I use "Supress file open options dialogs"
Destination> Since I already have set destinations y my actions, I choose here a "dump" folder
On errors > I hit Save As... and put a name for that log.
Then photohop opens my PDF on Photoshop and does nothing! It keeps my file open.
I m gettting frustated here, because I ma about to work with 400 files to batch, and this batch system does not work.
I am using CS6
Any clues

Your action doesn't to seem to include any Open actions. Why do you have the "Supress" option enabled?
Also, since your action has the two save commands, you would just leave the Destination set to None. Setting a Destination means that is going to save the files again.
The problem you'll run into though is that the action also saves the file name as part of the action, so that you'll end up just saving over the one file each time the action is played back on your 400 files. So Photoshop will process all the files, but each time it will overwrite the first file, so you'll end up with one file in each folder. Normally, in these situations, you'd use the Destination setting and use the "Overrride Action "Save As" Commands", which would substitute the Destination folder for whenever a Save command is used. The problem here is that you can only choose a single destination folder, so all files would be saved to the same location.
Short of scripting this, it may be best to break this into two separate actions.

Batch process does not work in one service, but worked in another.

Hi Fellows,
We have here a batch process with a code encrypted, that runs daily in a production environment.
Tonight this batch process did not work.
It is expected that this process runs in about 20 seconds, but tonight this process used about 3 hours and did not finished.
We checked if it was concurrency, killed some sessions and tried again, and nothing has changed.
And then someone changed the service that this process uses, it was 'bat' and changed to 'dba'. And it worked succesfully in 11 seconds.
Here is the tnsnames that the batch process uses:
bat =
(DESCRIPTION =
(LOAD_BALANCE = OFF)
(FAILOVER=ON)
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.10.x.x1)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.10.x.x2)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.10.x.x3)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = bat)
(FAILOVER_MODE =
(BACKUP = dba)
(TYPE = NONE)
(METHOD = BASIC)
(RETRIES = 20)
(DELAY = 5)
dba =
(DESCRIPTION =
(LOAD_BALANCE = OFF)
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.10.x.x1)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.10.x.x2)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.10.x.x3)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = dba)
Do you guys know what could be the reason?
Thanks in advance.

We set the service which the app should connect.

The batch process connects to a service [ bat ], but it hangs and don't finish. But when we change the service do dba is just pass in some seconds and finish succesfully.

Batch Renaming and renaming folders not working

I have copied and pasted 500 RAW canon images from a 5D Mark III into a new folder on a Drobo 5d via firewire 800 card reader (from two 16Gb Extreme Pro Sandisk CF cards) - The drobo is connected via Thunderbolt. Both cards transferred well and I batch renamed the first 278 pictures. The first thing I noticed was that I could not chnage the folder name from Untitled folder to the new name that I wanted to call it. I tried to do this but nothing happened. I went into the folder on the drobo and batch renamed the first lot of images. There was no problem, everything worked fine. After I copied and pasted the second card ( I can not use photo downloader with file renaming with the firewire 800 card reader - something that I think is ridiculous), I tried to batch rename all the new images following on in file name from the first ones. I press Rename and then nothing happens..... I still can not change the folder either. I am running Mac OSx 10.7.4 and CS6.

- The drobo is connected via Thunderbolt.
Check this (long) thread and especially post 53 where Peter Britt Bailey had also found that changing Drobo Thunderbolt to USB connection solved his problems:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5357997#5357997
( I can not use photo downloader with file renaming with the firewire 800 card reader - something that I think is ridiculous),
That is odd, I have owned a Lexar FW 800 card reader but this one died eventually and could not find a replacement until recently I found the DeLock FW 800 card reader.
Never had nor have any trouble with those FW800 card readers when renaming my files using Photodownloader.
Only the second option to back up the original to an other disk is not possible in Photodownloader.

Batch Renames do not carry over to Finder

When I Batch Rename my photos in Adobe Bridge, the images file names appear to change in Bridge, but when I close out of Bridge and open my images in Finder the images keep their old names and do not carry over the new Bridge batched rename.
Can anyone tell me how to get my files to permanently change their names from Bridge to Finder?

Working across a server in general, is not supported by Adobe.
Bridge in particular is very sensitive to any problem(s) in your server configuration, which we cannot troubleshoot for you.
This is the boilerplate text often used in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
See:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406793.html
Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work. It should.
Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

Batch rename does not remove original filename

Bridge CS4 ver 3.0.0.464
Not sure what I am doing wrong but when I try to batch rename my files for some reason I cannot remove the origanal filename,
I have checked the preferences and searched for a solution and have come up with nothing.
Any help would be great. Thank you.

This has fixed the issue, however it is not really an ideal solution as it deletes all custom preferences, was there not a way to to reset just the renaming preferences?
Thank you anyway, I forgot about cntrl bridge!

Batch File Naming - not working

In Automate > Batch... can someone tell me how to make File Naming work? I put in my name info, but PS is ignoring it and saving the new file with the original file name.
Thx,

SFW is exporting the file and you must either save or close (preferable-and without saving) the original. Therefore you better use Bridge for the renaming part :-)
I do find the destination section to confusing to0. That is why I record actions with the save as and destination part in it. It is really a peace of cake to select the in the finder and move to other folders, it takes less time then selecting (and/or creating new folders) in the destination section.
I know everyone has its own way but this is mine. I develop Raw in ACR and finish them in PSCS using various actions for most of the parts, last action sharpens the files and saves them as PSD file in one particular folder. In Bridge I select this files adding metadata and (batch)renaming.
After this I have several actions for resizing and save as. One is creating 4 different sizes and a SFW version each saved in a predestinated set of folders. I end each batch with closing the file without saving which is leaving the original psd file untouched.
But as I said, so much photographers so much workflows... :-(

Test Stand seq w/ dll batch file execution not working

I am using Test Stand 4.1, running a seq that calls a dll. The dll contains a batch file execution function that has not been working properly. I am not 100% sure what the function is as I do not have access to the direct code from which the dll was created. I believe I have a file, however please remember this is a guess that I am looking at the correct function/file.
This is a Pass/Fail test step that calls a batch file. The batch file runs properly without the use of Test Stand and called by the dll. In the code that I believe is running, I see there is a step that I am guessing does not run (see below for test steps). It seems as though these steps are being "stepped over" and not running, however the test does seem to be entering this function. The test reports a pass/fail status as the data is reported into a txt file. If the txt file contains the correct data, the test step reports PASS, even though the batchfile does not run.
:Note: [batchfile.bat] is the name of the batch file being called; the [ ] are not present
// Run Batch File
ChkErr(LaunchExecutableEx([batchfile.bat] ,windowState,&handle));
// Wait for batch file to complete task
do{
ProcessSystemEvents();
}while(!ExecutableHasTerminated (handle));
RetireExecutableHandle (handle);
Any one have any suggestions as to why the batch file is not being called and running properly?
Thank you
Jason_C

Thanks for the feed back. I have realized and it seems as though sometimes the CWD varies. The current working directory when the batch file does not run seems to be set to the desktop, not to the specified directory. The batch file is used to program a chip, calling the exe to run using commands. The file are speciifed by an absolute path, however the exe is not. The batch file is as below and seems to match up with a problem with the CWD. How can change though? I will have to check in the Start in field, but where can I find that property?
Thank You

Sharepoint 2013, event receiver to rename files not working

I coded an event receiver (ItemAdding) that renames for example a .txt file to a .text file (it does not matter the extensions, it is just an example). In my code what I do is to an SPFile.MoveTo operation. It works fine in SP2010 but when I execute
the same code in SP 2013, when the operation is done using IE I get the text "Sorry, something went wrong" and then "File Not Found".
In the logs this is what I see:
12/23/2013 15:48:49.16 w3wp.exe (0x17B0)                       0x0AC8 SharePoint Foundation

It's clear that the Sharepoint upload code tries to do things with the original name and it does not realize that it was renamed.
Can I do something from my event receiver code like using the AfterProperties to bypass this error?
Thanks

Hi Dennis,
The issue still persists. Here is the code:

                    else if (szUrl.LastIndexOf('/') != -1) szNewFileName = szUrl.Substring(szUrl.LastIndexOf('/') + 1);
                    else szNewFileName = szUrl;
                    if (properties.ListItem != null)
                        properties.ListItem["Title"] = szNewFileName;
                        properties.ListItem.Update();

Batch File is not working correctly

Hey Everyone,
I've got a batch file that I'm trying to get to work and seem to be running into difficulties on getting the whole batch file to work. I'm guessing that I have something missing or incorrect. What
I'm trying to accomplish is we currently have Java versions 7.0.45 both x64 & x86 platforms installs on all production client machines. My batch file will uninstall the x86 version of Java 7.0.45 and theninstall the
latest version of Java 7.0.51 x86 without any problems. It's the x64 that my batch file is running into problems and does not uninstall it or install the new version of java (7.0.51 x64).

Import rename index not working

I recently purchased a Nikon D3100, my first camera to shoot in RAW.
Being a basic photographer, I wanted to use both jpeg+raw until I am more familiar with Raw.
I started out importing jpeg+raw pairs with jpg as master into Aperture until I discovered that you can't delete the raw files from the pairs at a later time for images that are just ok to save space.
I used the rename feature during import to rename the photos to
imagedate_eventname_index
This worked fine.
I switched to import both jpeg and raw as seperate masters using the same naming convention.
Now the index does not append to the end of the name. Just date and event name.
Is anyone else seeing this issue?
Is there a work around?
Regards,
Brett

Sorry, didn't see the question at the end.
I am using Aperture 3.2.3
I am using Lion 10.7.3
Were you able to make any progress?
The issue still happens if I only import JPGs on cards with both JPG and RAW images.
Cards with only JPGs works fine.
My situation is I have a new camera that takes jpg+raw.
I have taken a lot of pictures and want to import them into Aperture as pairs.
That worked fine with renaming, but I only want to keep the RAW for certain photos (maybe 10%) and Aperture will not let me remove the RAW images that are paired.
So I read where you can import seperate jpg and raw and use the stacks 2 seconds feature to keep the jpg and raw together. Now I can delete the RAW for the not so good photos.
However, this rename issue is now causing a glitch in my process.
If Aperture would let me break a JPG+RAW pair to remove the RAW or JPG, then this would not be an issue.
Maybe I should better describe what my end goal is (assuming Apple does not add the remove one image from a pair feature).
Goal:
SD Card with JPG and RAW images
Import both JPG and RAW with the same name and each pair with a different numbered suffix
ie
2011-12-01_OfficeParty1.jpg
2011-12-01_OfficeParty1.nef
2011-12-01_OfficeParty2.jpg
2011-12-01_OfficeParty2.nef
Use auto stack to stack images with 2 seconds setting to stack the jpg and RAW images together.
(If I take multiple pictures within 2 seconds, the stack will have more than 1 image pair but that doesn't happen often and easy to seperate)
Now I can go through and remove the RAW images on the photos that I will never need them.
Ultimately, I would like the JPG and RAW to have the same filename, except the extension, to keep them identified as pairs.
I will probably go back to using image capture and exifrenamer to achieve the naming I want before importing the photos into Aperture.
Regards,
Brett

Batch processing: Action not working - Photoshop CC

I've created an action to apply a watermark. I want to apply this to a folder of jpeg pics.
I've gone to:
File>Automate>batch - see pic below
I ok this.
The batching looks as though it's taking place since I can see it running through the steps of the action. But when finished, nothing has changed.
I've also tried changing the 'Destination' to 'Folder' and using '4 digit serial number + extension' but this doesn't work either.
Many thanks for help in advance.
PS. I've tried using File>Scripts>Image processor and this works. Why this and not Batching?

Your terminology seems to be pretty jumbled.
Please focus one one issue/tool for now and post a screenshot/s with the pertinent Panels (Layers, Channels, Options Bar …) visible.

Batch reading does not work

Hello,
I have class A, attribute List < B > A.b, B.d (back reference, mapped variable one to one). I want to use batch reading A.b. Sometimes it works, sometimes not.
It is because of this method in VariableOneToOneMapping:
    public Object valueFromObject(Object object, DatabaseField field, Session session) {
        // First check if the value can be obtained from the value holder's row.
        DatabaseRow referenceRow = getIndirectionPolicy().extractReferenceRow(getAttributeValueFromObject(object));
        if (referenceRow != null) {
            Object value = referenceRow.get(field);
            // Must ensure the classification to get a cache hit.
            try {
                value = session.getDatasourcePlatform().convertObject(value, getFieldClassification(field));
            } catch (ConversionException e) {
                throw ConversionException.couldNotBeConverted(this, getDescriptor(), e);
            return value;
        //2.5.1.6 PWK. added to support batch reading on variable one to ones
        Object referenceObject = getRealAttributeValueFromObject(object, session);
        String queryKeyName = (String)getSourceToTargetQueryKeyNames().get(field);
        Descriptor objectDescriptor = session.getDescriptor(referenceObject.getClass());
        DatabaseField targetField = objectDescriptor.getObjectBuilder().getTargetFieldForQueryKeyName(queryKeyName);
        if (targetField == null) {
            return null;
        return objectDescriptor.getObjectBuilder().extractValueFromObjectForField(referenceObject, targetField, session);
    }When B.d is instantiated, referenceRow is null. getSourceToTargetQueryKeyNames() does not contain an entry for indicator field, so the method returns null. How can I fix it?

If the field equals the mapping's indicator field it should do a lookup in its indicator mapping with the object's class for the value. Please log this bug.

Elements 10 Organizer Rename Function Not Working Fully

Hi Forum
Have just upgraded from Elements 9 to Elements 10 and used the File -> Rename function to rename 3000 files with a new Base name beginning 'Base' the process reported it had completed and did not provide any additional messages - but checking the result not all files were renamed and a large number were left behind with the original Base name. Any suggestions?
Regards
David

Hi Jon
Lastly the function 'Export' which solves the Rename issue but does not export Album tags which are themselves Key Word Tags as I used the Key Word tags to create the Albums is sloppy from a programming point of view. The first two issues were present in PSE 9 and I was sort of hoping they would have been fixed by now in PSE 10 and they are not. David
There is no such thing as 'album tags'.
Tags are keywords attached to a file to enable easier search. You know that tags can be read by many softwares including Windows explorer. That is, provided the tags are not only kept in the database, but also written to the files, which you can do if you want from the Organizer.
To give you another explanation about albums (also called collections) than the one in the Organizer help, I'll simply define an album as a list of files in a given order. There are many way to implement albums in various softwares created around a database like the Organizer, Lightroom, Aperture and a lot of others. Each one is a particular feature of the database to keep the lists and orders. The general rule is that albums can't be read by other software, with the exception of Lightroom with Elements catalogs (from Adobe, based on the same sqlite database). You can't either store the information about what you call 'album tags' in each individual file : there is already no clear standard in the way metadata like tags or captions are kept in a file.
So, there is no bug nor issues in the Organizer or in any other software because albums can't be saved within the files.
But...
There is a workaround suggested in the prior posts.
To say which files are in an album, you only have to use a standard keyword, for instance say you want a 'Christmas' album, you create a standard keyword : 'isinachristmasalbum' and assign it to each member of the album.
When you retrieve the exported files by reimporting them, the tag will enable you to select all the files of the album and enter them in a a new album.
The missing part of the album, the order of the files will be lost.
But...
If you have renamed the files of the album with the starting text + order number, the information will be stored in the file names themselves!
By the way, if your concern is not about file order, but files count, I don't think albums are the right tool for you.

Batch rename is not working
