How do I search and work in the map module without losing my selection

I'm going through my old photographs that predate geotracking and adding my best guess as to their locations via the  map module but I'm getting frustrated.
My biggest angst is the selections.  In the library module, I look around and find a set of photographs that were taken at the same place and I select them.  I then go to the map module and move found, sometimes search, for the place where the photographs were taken.  Now, I go back to drop the selection into the map and ... OH NO!!! .. there is no selection.  Double angst is I click back in Library and I'm scrolled all the way to the start of my group of photographs.
Deselecting the photos is the biggest UI mistake that Lightroom is making in this sequence.  I'm wondering if there is something that I can do to either prevent it or perhaps have a second method of a quick temporary group of photographs.
The other related question I have is if anyone has a suggestion of how to mark these photos as the type of GPS information.  e.g. it could come from the camera, it could come via a track log, or it could be just my best guess.  Perhaps that is already possible to determine.

When you find the photos you want that were taken in a single location, select them and put them in a Quick Collection (press B)
Then select the Quick Collection and go to the Map Module with the filmstrip turned on. You will then be able to work ONLY with this set of photos that are taken in one location

  • My computer became corrupted, and I reinstalled windows, only to find my iphone will no longer sync with the same computer. How do I sync my phone and tones to the same computer without losing everything?

    This is my first time using this forum, and I apologize if my post isn't "normal" or if my question is too long. My old acer computer had become corrupted and I had to reinstall my copy of windows. When I tried to sync a new ringtone to my iphone, which was only ever synced to this same computer, I was prompted to delete everything I had so I could install one ringtone. That does not sound ideal, and I refuse to delete everything I've put on my phone and my data to sync to itunes. There has to be another way to show my phone that this is the same computer. So I do not have to go through the hassle of doing everything again. I could not find an answer in the forums, and hope you can help me. This is pretty close to being a deal breaker for me. I'm beyond frustrated with this policy.
    I don't believe it matters, but I'm running the latest version of itunes, as of today, and I have an iPhone 4 CDMA iOS 7.4.

    Thanks, Lawrence. I figured that was what I was going to have to do in the end. I have a few games with quite a few hours invested, and I worry that I'll lose the progress I have as they do not save to the cloud. I may have to bite the bullet, and just take the plunge to resolve this. I just want a way to easily transfer my "Home Computer" for my iPhone. My laptop is years old and in need of being replaced, and it's about time to upgrade my phone. These life events piling up are making me consider switching to a friendlier OS. I'm not using this as a threat. I just hope some apple high up will read this, and realize that we need alternatives. Life happens.
    Thank you both Paul and Lawrence. I clicked "This helped me" not knowing it would remove the option to choose "This fixed my problem" too. For anyone else reading this thread. Using the guide provided has done both. It has helped me and given me a fix to my current problem. Lawrence has also provided me with the last bit of information I feel is missing from wjosten's guide. That syncing will completely erase all of your data and reinstall it in one fell swoop. It's a great fix. Even if it isn't the exact one I wanted. Thank you again!

  • Can I install CS6 on the SSD and HDD of the same computer without losing licence?

    I just upgraded my Macbook Pro, Mac OS X 10.6.8 with a new SSD.
    I am not sure how smooth and errorless my original HDD OS X has been running, so instead of using Set Up Assistant or the Migration Assistant, I did a fresh installation of OS X on the SSD. Now I want to either individually carry all apps to the SDD or, more favorably, put a fresh install on the SSD.
    If I try to simply install the CS6 from my downloaded install software, I suppose it will ask me for the serial number. As far as I know I can install the CS6 on two separate personal computers. I want to save my second option for the iMac I want to buy later on. So how can I do this installation on the SSD?
    And, once I do the installation, I will keep working from the SSD, but still want to keep the HDD version as a backup until I am sure the new SSD works flawless for some months.
    Same question will go for LR4.

    on you hdd, open cs6 programs and click help>deactivate.
    you're then ok for two more installations/activations.

  • How can I read and work with the e-mail on one IMAC (running 10.7.3) from my MacPro Power PC5 (running 10.5.8)

    I would like to be able to work the e-mails on my IMAC (Lion 10.7.3) from my Mac Pro Power PC5 (running Leopard 10.5.8).  I want to be able to see all the folders and have actions show up on the other computer.  In other words, if I delete the e-mail I want it to disappear in real time from the other computer.  The same would be for moving messages in and out of different folders.  Can this be done without setting a server?  If not, then what server version could I install on the MacPro that would let me do this?

    That is the way IMAP should work.
    Like gMail or iCloud, both of which can be setup on both Macs...
    Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
    I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
    You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
    iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
    On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
    • Server name: imap.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes
    • Port: 993
    • Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    • Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
    • Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes
    • Port: 587
    • SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
    • Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    • Password: Your iCloud password

  • My husband and i just bought a new pc.  I went to sync my iPhone and it wants to erase all my data, what do I do?? How do I get my info to the new pc without losing it all?

    Looking for help please???

    You need to copy the iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer; do this while iTunes is not running, then launch iTunes and you will see it. You can then safely sync. If this is not an option there is a MUCH more complicated way to do it: Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

  • Can I add or edit Keywords and captions from within the Map module?

    created by Modesto Vega in Photoshop Lightroom - View the full discussionYou should be able to change the title, the caption, the sublocation, the city, the state/province, the country, the ISO country code, the altitude, the direction, and a few other fields. However, you cannot add keywords.

  • How to stop the "minority report" type of personalized ads triggered by one's google search and appearing in the firefox browser?

    Please advise how to stop the "minority report" type of personalized advertising apparently triggered by one's google search and appearing in the firefox browser.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == a few months ago

    If another uses the computer with their own user account, everything
    is kept separate in each users folder. Only if someone used your account
    would that be an issue.
    Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
    You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

  • I try to open I photo and  I get the message, your iPhoto library is damaged...please restore from backup. But i din't made backup copy. How can i delete previous library and work wrom the new one?

    I try to open I photo and  I get the message, your iPhoto library is damaged...please restore from backup. But i din't made backup copy. How can i delete previous library and work wrom the new one?

    Try this (assuming you're using iPhoto 12): make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and try the three fixes below in order as needed:
      Fix #1
    delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder. 
    delete iPhoto's cache files that are located in your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
    reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    Fix #2
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library.
    Select options #1, #2 and #6. 
    Fix #3
    Rebuild the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Does anyone know how travel meta search engines work? (kayak,mobissimo)

    Does anyone know how travel meta search engines work? like (mobissimo,kayak,TravelJungle.co.uk)

    Thanks for your reply BalusC
    i agree with u.
    the sites like kayak, mobissimo are using spider tool to get data from other sites(airline site, etc..).
    and they are using jquery with php pages. these sites are airline ticket booking sites.
    my questions are:-
    how can they get flight information without any GDS help?
    can a spider program/tool fetch the realtime data?
    i had experience in implementation of client side web services for GDS(worldspan,amadeus).
    but i am not have any experience with travel meta search engine applications..

  • How do my wife and i use the same ipad?

    How do my wife and i use the same ipad?

    Nothing keeps you from handing it "back and forth" to share. I do this all the time on our couch with my Wife's iPad...
    I think your quesiton revolves around having your own bookmarks and other data/info on the device. 
    The iPad is meant to be a "single user device"; there isn't a login/logout to differenciate one user from another.  "The iPad isn't a computer"..  ;-)
    But, that being said, there are lots of ways to share the iPad/iOS environment.  Many apps, such as Facebook, let you login and out..  so, while you share the same app, each of your login is different.
    For bookmarks and notepad it is a little trickier..  You can each use a different browser (so all of your bookmarks are complerety seperate.)
    In some cases I would sugest a couple get a $900 Macbook Air rather than an iPad if this sharing won't work.  "Why can't I log in and out of and iPad?".  I think that the fact that it doesn't gives the iPad many adantages over a computer.
    If you have more specific questions pleaser ask away.  Just like you share the kitchen table and many other things around your household, there are many ways to make this work!  ;-)

  • How does Index fragmentation and statistics affect the sql query performance

    Hi,
    How does Index fragmentation and statistics affect the sql query performance
    Thanks

    How does Index fragmentation and statistics affect the sql query performance
    Very simple answer, outdated statistics will lead optimizer to create bad plans which in turn will require more resources and this will impact performance. If index is fragmented ( mainly clustered index,holds true for Non clustred as well) time spent in finding
    the value will be more as query would have to search fragmented index to look for data, additional spaces will increase search time.
