Assign automatically names from places to imported geo-tagged-photos?

Hello,
I don't know, if I don't understand the Places function or if I use it in the wrong way or if it doesn't work
I tag my photos with geo-coordinates using HoudahGeo or something similar. Then I import these photos to iPhoto09.
But iPhoto09 is only showing the Pin on the map correctly, but the Place under "Information of the photo" is empty.
Even if I create a new place: "my home" and makes the blue circle big enough, iPhoto09 don't recognize new imported photos with geo-coordinates from "my home".
Is it right, that I have to tag my photos twice?
First: Geotag them with HoudahGeo
Second: Assign a place to the photo in iPhoto09
It would be great, if iPhoto could automatically assign places to new imported photos...
any ideas?
Thanks in advacne!

You are correct - you have to manually assign your places to photos to have the custom names show up - I think that the geo coding name look up probably only uses the Google places
Suggest this addition to Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback
You can select a group of photos and right click on one (control click) and set all of them to your home at one time - or you can even do that to an entire event (click on the little "i" in the lower right hand corner)

  • IPhoto 11 is moving my geo tagged photos

    iPhoto has been moving my geo tagged photos to the wrong place, sometimes it is just moving a few of them to a different town a few miles away but after opening it today it moved about 60 pictures taken in Maui to somewhere in Idaho. Is anyone else having this problem or know how to fix it?  I'm getting tired of having to move my photos back to where they were taken as it is not very easy anymore with the newest version of iPhoto.

    Sorry but I do not understand your question
    As to importing iPhoto simply copies the photos to the iPhoto llibrary - no changes of any sort are made

  • IPhoto 09 not recognising locations for geo-tagged photos

    I've been geotagging my photos in iPhoto for over a year now, using HoudahGeo. This works really well and integrates great with sites such as Flickr that support geo-tagged photos.
    When I installed iPhoto 09, it only recognises about 30 photos out of several thousand as geo-tagged. These are mainly photos taken with my iPhone, but also some taken with my Sony camera and geotagged with HoudahGeo.
    I've checked a sample of the ones it does not put in a location (all taken with the same Sony camera) and the Exif data is there with the correct latitude and longitude but iPhoto 09 sees these fields as blank when I do a Photos > Shows Extended Photo Info, the latitude and longitude fields are blank.
    Anyone any ideas what I am doing wrong / how I get the photos to show on the map in iPhoto 09?

    I usually import the photos direct to iPhoto from my camera and then use HoudahGeo to geo-tag the original copies of iPhoto in my library. Prior to iPhoto 9 this is not a big issue as it did not use the geo-tag information directly but with iPhoto 9 it's a big issue for users like me as I'd rather not have to export from the camera to a folder, geo-tag and then import to iPhoto 9 as it's messy to say the least.
    As I noted - this will not work - iPhoto is a database and it keeps data about the photo in its database - as all database programs do - and changing the data elsewhere will not update the database
    Anytime you apply modifications directly to the data in the iPhoto database you are risking corruption and it is recommended that you not ever modify the contents of the iPhoto library
    I use an ATP Photo Finder - http://www.atpinc.com/p2-4a.php?sn=00000414 - which applies the Geocodeing data directly to my photos so when I import them they are complete - it simplifies my work flow a lot
    Surely Apple will have thought of users like me who geo-tag using a GPS external to the camera and provided some easy method of re-reading the Exif data in the photos in real time?

  • Places doesn't show up for geo-tagged photos from phone (Sony Ericsson)

    So I have a Sony Ericsson T715, which has triangulation geo-tagging for photos, I can see their location through the phone no problem.
    However, when I import them via the Bluetooth File Browser to my Mac and import them into iPhoto '09, their location does not show up the photos seem to hold no information on this.
    Why is this? How should I import them so that this information stays? (Was a reason why I bought this phone.)
    I tried looking at the phone/importing through Image Capture, but it doesn't seem to work... keeps randomly opening iPhoto and showing nothing. In Image Capture it shows the photos, but I can't import them - just says it's importing, but does nothing in the end.

    No one but the people who made the phone if the data is not there then it is not there and it is not an iPhoto issue - it is a phone issue - their tech support is the place to go
    iPhoto handles correctly formatted Geo Date in the correct EXIF fields - getting it there is the soure hardware's job

    PS threadjacking is not the best way to get answers even if it is an iPhoto question - new threads that are on the subject are much more successful

  • How do delete photos from iphone after import to new photos app?

    With iphoto (or aperture which I own), after importing photos I was always asked if I wanted to remove the photos's from my phone. With the new photo's app I don't get that option, and I certainly don't want to delete 1200 photos by having to individually select each one on the phone. Any ideas?

    You should ask on the forum that Apple told you to use for Beta software discussions. This isn't the place. The moderators will likely soon remove your post.

  • Returned from trip and downloaded several hundred photos. I photo will not allow identifying faces on most pictures. why and is there a fix

    Returned from trip and imported several hundred photos to Iphoto from a Nikon 3200.  I photo will not allow me to catalog Faces on most pictures. Some randomly will accept Faces.  Key words and Descriptions work.
    Why and how do I fix this?

    As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import a few photos from your camera and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?

  • Help with importing photos - IPhoto assigning file names that already exist

    When I import photos from my canon powershot camera, IPhoto has begun assigning file names that are the same as filenames that already exist on photos imported previously. It appears it is deleting those older files (when I go look in my photo library, the older one with the same name is now gone).
    I don't know how to name photos as they are imported as it seems to be done automatically and I'm afraid to import more photos and loose my old pics. Can't find anything on the internet when I search on this question - can anyone help?

    Thanks so much for your quick reply, TD.
    What happens when I plug in my camera is that Iphoto opens, asks me if I want to import photos (and if I want to delete originals), and I click okay or whatever and they are imported. I name the roll/folder, and I photo puts them in the library in that folder in that year.
    It makes sense that the camera is numbering them. I think that the ones it is using the same numbers for (ie - IMG0080.jpg) are the numbers on older photos that were assigned by a different camera that we used to have.
    So I guess the canon isn't searching on all photo names that have been used, just the ones that it has used in the past.
    Unfortunately, when the new photo is named with the same name as an old one, that old one is literally deleted - at least as far as I can tell - and when I go look for it in my photo library, it is no longer there.
    I might try to see if there are any help forums for the canon powershot and see what I might learn there.
    THanks so much for your help!

  • How can I assign image file name from Main() class

    I am trying to create library class which will be accessed and used by different applications (with different image files to be assigned). So, what image file to call should be determined by and in the Main class.
    Here is the Main class
    import org.me.lib.MyJNIWindowClass;
    public class Main {
    public Main() {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    MyJNIWindowClass mw = new MyJNIWindowClass();
    mw.s = "clock.gif";
    And here is the library class
    package org.me.lib;
    public class MyJNIWindowClass {
    public String s;
    ImageIcon image = new ImageIcon("C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/Desktop/" + s);
    public MyJNIWindowClass() {
    JLabel jl = new JLabel(image);
    JFrame jf = new JFrame();
    jf.add(jl);
    jf.setVisible(true);
    jf.pack();
    I do understand that when I am making reference from main() method to MyJNIWindowClass() s first initialized to null and that is why clock could not be seen but how can I assign image file name from Main() class for library class without creating reference to Main() from MyJNIWindowClass()? As I said, I want this library class being accessed from different applications (means different Main() classes).
    Thank you.

    Your problem is one of timing. Consider this simple example.
    public class Example {
        public String s;
        private String message = "Hello, " + s;
        public String toString() {
            return message;
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            Example ex = new Example();
            ex.s = "world";
            System.out.println(ex.toString());
    }When this code is executed, the following happens in order:
    1. new Example() is executed, causing an object to constructed. In particular:
    2. field s is given value null (since no value is explicitly assigned.
    3. field message is given value "Hello, null"
    4. Back in method main, field s is now given value "world", but that
    doesn't change message.
    5. Finally, "Hello, null" is output.
    The following fixes the above example:
    public class Example {
        private String message;
        public Example(String name) {
            message = "Hello, " + name;
        public String toString() {
            return message;
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            Example ex = new Example("world");
            System.out.println(ex.toString());
    }

  • "Automatically retrieve CD track names from internet" not working

    I'm about to begin re-ripping all my CDs (400+) which I haven't done since at least 14yrs ago in order to take advantage on newer/better formats. I was excited to see that iTunes can automate a lot of this process with the following two options:
    - When you insert a CD: (Import CD and Eject)
    - [ ] Automatically retrieve CD track names from internet
    Found in the "Playback" settings of iTunes 10.1.1
    However after inserting my first CD, I noticed it started to import without downloading the track names first. Obtaining track names manually is working for me because if I choose "Advanced -> Get track names" it accesses Gracenote DB and works fine.
    It's just the automatic operation after inserting a CD that is not working. This causes me to have to:
    1) Insert CD
    2) Choose "Advanced -> Get track names"
    3) Click "Import CD"
    4) Eject
    as opposed to the one supposedly promised step of "Insert CD" and have the other 3 things happen automatically.
    I've tried deleting my iTunes plists in my ~/Library/Preferences/ folder but it still works the same.
    Any suggestions?

    You can seach the Gracenote site directly. I don't know if that would help you decide which option you needed to use.

  • Assign batch number from sale order to production order automatic

    Dear all, I have a question for all. Please help me in this case
    My scenario is make to order
    I have a sale order, when i create sale order, i have assigned batch number at each line item.
    When i run MRP for sale order (MD50), the system generate a planned order for it and I've converted to production order.
    So when I view production order, I think that batch number what I've assigned to sale order will be assign to production order but that is not happen.
    So, can you help me solve this problem. I think that sap can assign batch number from sale order to production order automatic but i don't know how to configure that
    Thanks all

    Hi,
    To the best of my knowledge, when system is generating planned order / production order from sales order system doesnt copy batch number from sales order.
    In fact , you are following wrong practice for generating batch no.
    Follow procedure like this :
    Create sales order without any batch assigning there. Run MRP with MD50 and then convert planned order to Production Order.
    While creation / releasing of Production order, you have option to generate batch automatically by following way :
    Go to OPKP (Production Scheduling Profile) -> Take your plant & give suitable name to Production scheduling profile-> Batch Management tab -
    > Automatic Batch creation in the order maintain this field as
    1     Automatic batch creation at order creation
    or
    2     Autom. batch creation at order release
    This will generate batch number automatically at the time of creation or release of order.
    Then follow same process i.e. Goods Issue, Confirmation & GR for production order.
    So you will get sales order stock in the form of batch managed.
    Check & revert if any issue in above flow.

    Tejas

  • Gracenote CDDB service not submitting correct names for songs when importing from CDs

    Gracenote CDDB service not submitting correct names for songs from purchased CDs

    You are looking at the 1st Gen Nano manual.
    You need to look at the 2nd Gen Nano manual here -> iPod Nano Features Guide
    Not much difference but that page 16 shows iTunes 6. You have iTunes 7.
    You have to first select the CD.
    The Import button is now at the bottom right.
    Insert the CD and select it in iTunes and the Browse icon (eye) at the bottom right will change to Import.
    Go to iTunes prefs -> Advanced and tick "Automatically get CD track names from Internet".

  • ITunes import no track names from CD import, how do I get iTunes to recongnise that iTunes was used originally for the import?

    The following message keeps appearing "iTunes cannot get  CD track names for songs that were not imported using iTunes.  To allow iTunes to look for CD track names for this song, import the song again using iTunes."  I did originally use iTunes to do the original import.  I do not have the original CDs anymore as I have shifted house.  How do I get iTunes to recognise that the import was done using iTunes?  Please help.

    StepForward wrote:
    No they were labelled Track 1, Track 2 etc.. when I originally did the import.  But I put that down to the fact that I was staying at a friends house who had no internet so it didn't go off and get the titles automatically as per usual.  I just figured I would be able to correct it later when I had a bit more time and had set up my internet.  Moving house is rather disruptive so there has been a time hiatus of a couple of weeks inbetween original import and now me trying to correct it.
    StepForward,
    Yes, that is normally the function of the Advanced > Get Track Names function.  It can get track names even without the CD present, by querying CDDB based on its "memory" of the CD.  (I just tried this, so I have to disagree with my friend Fiend.)
    It is possible that your CDInfo.CIDB file is messed up.  It is also possible that CDDB does not recognize the CD, so even with Internet all you get is Track 01, etc.
    Unless you are talking about mucho CDs where this happened, you may just want to manually edit the track names.

  • Photo Geo tags are not being used by Places

    I have been importing photos into iPhoto with valid geo tags and none of the photos are being shown on the Places map.
    When I initially starting using iPhoto I imported some pictures from my iPhone and realised that the pictures were identified on the Places maps automatically, since I have added photos and manually edited the location information directly in Places.
    If I import pictures from my iPhone they are not entered into Places and if you check all the location information is blank, if you look at the extended information you can see all the correct GPS information...
    I'm confused..

    in your iPhoto preferences is look up places set to "Automatically"? The default is "never" and it must be changed to "automatically" to work.
