How to show file names of photos in iMovie '11

I'm making the move from iMovie 6 to iMove '11.
I always carefully name my digital photos with a serial number and what the image is of. For example "001 Kawailoa Bay, Kauai.jog"
In 6 I could see the filename of an imported image/photo on the timeline which easily allowed me to add the needed caption (title) to the video, reading the needed info and typing it into the caption text.
In '11 I cannot see any properties of the image/photo that will show me the filename in the project. I have to right-click and "Reveal in Finder" to see the filename and then return to '11 to add the caption.
Am I overlooking a way to see the filename or properties of an image in the Project?
thanks

I don't know of a way to do it other than the way you are doing it with Reveal In Finder.

How to show file names in russian (for instance) in the terminal window?

I have a file with its name in russian. It shows fine in Finder. The terminal, however, shows it in question marks like this:
*mark:/Users/Shared/Documents >l*
*total 8*
*drwxrwxr-x 5 yana parents 170 Jun 2 19:51 ForPrint/*
*drwxrwxr-x 8 mark parents 272 Jul 6 22:30 Movies & Multiki/*
*drwxrwxr-x 338 mark parents 11492 Aug 17 17:14 Photos & Clips/*
*drwxrwxr-x 2 mark parents 68 May 29 21:50 SC Info/*

*drwxr-xr-x 17 mark parents 578 Sep 15 15:11 ?????????????? ??????????????/*
But when I run the directory listing through cat the contents display all right:
*mark:/Users/Shared/Documents >l | cat*
*total 8*

Show file name as the title for a photo in Photos app

If my memory is correct in iPhoto when you hovered the cursor over a photo it displayed the title assigned to the photo, but if you had not assigned a title it showed the file name. In Photos app the only way I have found to see the file name is in the info panel. Other wise it only shows untitled when you hover over the photo. You can copy/paste in the info pane but thats a pain if you have hundreds of pics with no title. I only named a few in iPhoto as I preferred to see the file name assigned by the camera. Any one know if it's possible to see file name and not untitled?

See this discussion: Re: Where are photo file names?
Photos does show the filenames only in the Info panel, and if you wrote the filename into the title field as a title, Photos will suppress it. in some cases

File names for photos on iPad?

How do find the file name for photos in iPhoto on the iPad?

To the best of my knowledge, you can't do it on the iPad. But after syncing, you can just click on a given photo in iPhoto and the name will appear in the "title" field in the Information box on the left-hand side of the iPhoto window.
(Make sure you have that little icon of an "i" in a circle checked in the bottom left corner next to the search bar, or you won't see the Information pane.)

Viewing File names of photos

Hi,
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to view the file names of photos your are viewing in the photo library on an Apple Ipod Touch?? Even if it is not available in the standard photo library, is it possible to do with a 3rd party app? I want to be able to show people pictures on an Ipod touch (or similar) and, if they want a copy of a certain photo I have taken, note down the file number so that I can print it off when i get home.
Surely this must be able to be done, it's not like the filename is hidden away, it's the **** filename!! hehe
Cheers
Sparky

i have an app called 'ePhotoChest' which allows you to name the photos after you've imported them. slightly tedious but would work for you. someone else may know of a different app that does what you want.

How to show employee names in descending order but 3rd row is fixed and always top on the table ?

how to show employee names in descending order but 3rd row is fixed and always top on the table ?
for example employee names is A,B,C, D, E
and output is C,E,D,B,A

Since you are posting in the design forum, the short answer is - you don't. Rows in a table have no inherent order that you can rely on and the "position" of rows is a visual characteristic that should be implemented by the application that displays
this information or by the query that is used to generate the resultset.
So the next question is how one accomplishes this particular order within a select statement. That is a tsql question which, for future reference, is best posted to the tsql forum. In addition, many of the questions or issues that you will face
have been discussed in the forums - often many, many times. The first thing you should do when faced with an issue is to simply search the forums and leverage the the knowledge that has already been discussed. In doing so you are quite likely to
see suggestions or related issues that you should consider in your search for a solution.
Now, to answer the question - you need to formulate a order by clause that forces the rows to be sorted in the manner you desire. Effectively you have 2 levels of sorting. The first level divides your rows into 2 groups. Group 1 consists
of rows where name = E and Group 2 is everything else. Following that you then need to sort the rows in each group by name in descending order. Something like:
order by case name when E then 1 else 2 end, name desc

Show file name

Is there a way to show file names with the events, in the event library window?

... I imported a large number of files and I want to make sure I have them all and they are some I want to identify quickly, I am looking for a way to see the file name in the event library....
that is beyond the CONCEPT of this 15€ consumer product
iM is meant for camcorder-imports - cams give automatic file-names with very little information (clip001); the more important info are in the meta-tags (when, perhaps where, after analyzing who, what) .. so, from the intended perspective of this app, there's no need/function to display clip-names.
the EVENT-concept structures on time-stamp, based upon the assumption, you record your movies on some 'daily' basis, think of vacations, city-trips, holidays ...
for your workflow, using 'files', I would suggest to prep all files in Finder, create folders, re-name them, arrange them (you do know, in Finder hitting Space-bar when a file is selected, it shows a preview? video as motion pictures?), whatever to structure them, THEN import to iM for editing.-

How to show company name and contact name on the incoming calls of iPhone 4

Kindly provide me with a useful solution of how to show company name and contact name on the incoming calls of iPhone4.
even with an application or from the setting of the iPhone itself, but without telling me a solution like writting the company name in the contact name field.
This is a very important option, i think it is a must, not an option and apple should fix this problem fastly. because it is already available in the older models of iPhone like iPhone 3G and 3GS.
How an important feature like this could be available in old models, but in the later models is not available?

Currently not possible without putting the company name in the contact name's field. AFAIK, it's never been available on any iOS version.
You might check the App Store for an app that can do this although I'm pretty sure you won't find one.

How to place file names with thumbnails?

I have several thousand images that need to go online but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to add file names to the thubnails. Every bit of documentation I've read talks about adding it to the larger images only. I figured that part out but can't I have file names for the thumbnails too?

Bummer. I was hoping for a secret key to take me there. I have too
many images that can be scanned via thumbnails and for the detail
shots they can go larger. There is no way I can use this as it is with
9000+ images that need to be gone through quickly. Thanks for the
answer.

How can I make a still photo from imovie

How can I make a still photo from imovie?

Let's assume you have iMovie 11 (Version 9). (If you have a different version, let me know. The instructions will be different.)
First, get an app called MPEG Streamclip, which is free. (google MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5)
Open MPEG Streamclip.
In iMovie, select the clip you need. Then, right-click/Reveal in Finder.
Drag this clip into MPEG Streamclip
In MPEG Streamclip, move the playhead to the frame you want.
In MPEG Streamclip, click FILE/EXPORT FRAME.
Choose JPEG, TIFF, or PNG and give it a name.
You can then drag this photo into iPhoto.
I have created a short video Tutorial on how to do this. There is one error in the Tutorial, where it says that Command-click is the same as right-click. I should have said Control-click instead.

How do I get the Organizer to show file names?

I'm lost and confused in Photoshop 13. How do i get the file names to be displayed in Organizer? I've chosen to keep the older version of the "grid" display and miss having the file names showing. I've searched the online manual but can't seem to find what I need!

ManyOldPhotos a écrit:
And as a follow-up question, how do I get the font to be larger in the Organizer. It's all so tiny!
If you are on Windows, you can set the font size from the control panel, display options. You can set the text font to 125% or 150%.
That will change the display for other applications too (not for the editor...)

How to Get Albums in File-Name-Order Photo

When I updated my iPod Touch to V4.0 and iTunes (V9 on Windows XP) re-synced it, I found that my photo albums were now in Picture Date order rather than PC file name order. I tried several things that didn't work.
What worked was using the Photoshop Essentials Organizer to change the picture date on all the photos in an album to the same date and time (this can be done to all selected photos in one operation).
I did the sync in two steps. First I moved the album out of the iTunes photos directory and then synced my iPod which deleted the album. Then I moved it back and re-synced.
Does anyone know of an easier trick? I’ve already submitted a feedback item to Apple that they should make file-name-order an option in iTunes
Andy…

The trick that I used is to append the URL with the name of the file. So if your url is "http://domain.com/attach", use "http://domain.com/attach/filename.doc". IE and Netscape parse the URL to determine what the filename is, so by placing this text at the end, you essentially let the browsers know what the filename is. :)
I have design a program to get the attach file from an
attachment. But when I click the link to save the
file, the default name of the file is 'attach'
whenever I get different files. Who know what is the
problem, please tell me the truth.
Here are some codes of the program.<< snip >>
