Best way to export photo titles/descriptions to Facebook?

I'm a new Aperture user with only a few weeks of usage so far. I used it on a recent trip and made a nice set of photos with lots of metadata in the "caption" and "title" metadata fields. However, Aperture's Facebook export seems to be dumb beyond belief and only include the "version" data when adding the photos to Facebook. Is there any real way to get my extensive descriptions to get included? I would have expected something as "pro" as Aperture to do this properly and at least allow me to select what metadata would be associated with the available Facebook info.
I tried a plugin called FacebookExport which did not work at all. It only exported one single photo and then got stuck doing nothing for hours.
How do others do this, or is it simply not doable with Aperture? If it's not doable then I guess I'll have to quit using Aperture and try to get a refund, as sharing photos is very important to me.

I too am a little confused as to whether there is the functionality here for meta data to be uploaded or not. There is a setting within Aperture (Preferences - Advanced) to include location data.   But the images I upload (with location data), do not reflect on the map within Facebook. Also when I change the version name with the caption (which is a pain as this is not what a version name is), when the album sync's with Facebook, it changes back again.   So the sync is not correct.
The comments above seem to indicate this is a FB problem, not an Aperture problem.
I'm hoping to bring this topic to someone's awareness and get the discussion going in the hope someone has a solution.

Best Way to Export Photos/Videos from iDevice to Mac?

I recently switched from Windows to a Mac. Honestly, OS X works like a beautifully, and I'm loving it so far.
However, one thing has been annoying me like crazy. How does one export photos and videos from their iDevice (i.e. iPhone, iPad) WITHOUT iPhoto? Because, quite frankly, iPhoto just (for lack of a better word) *****. Love the idea that it can manage photos for me, but I want to be able to see them individually as files on a drive for sake of easily carrying it around on my external and plugging in to view them on any computer. I've been organizing my photos in Windows in the Photos folder that is created by default for years now. All I had to do was plug in my iDevice and I would simply cut the images to my hard drive. They were there, and I could see them as actual files instead of whatever file system iPhoto uses for its library.
Please give me solutions that retain all EXIF data in the photos and videos. Not only does iPhoto prevent me from seeing the photos individually as files, but whenever I export the photos to see as actual files, it messes up the dates on the photos, making it look like they were taken on the days I exported them using iPhoto. I can't even understand why it even works like that.

I see that Image Capture works well for imports, as it doesn't mess up the EXIF data. I guess this is how those of us who want to export the actual files are supposed to do it.
iPhoto keeps the 'actual' files in the Mac's Pictures folders, just open the iPhoto library (rightclick, choose Show Package Contents), they are in the folder labeled 'Originals'

What is the best way to manage photos - Dropbox (with sync), Facebook (with sync), iPhoto, etc.?

With so many cloud based and wireless syncing services, I'm lost as to the simplest way to keep photos sync'd as well as backed up. My dropbox is currently syncing all photos I take with my iphone, but in an overall folder called CAMERA UPLOADS, so they are uncategorized. I upload pics to facebook, which facebook also has a sync photos feature, but I don't necessarily want all photos uploaded to facebook. What has worked best for everyone so that there aren't a ton of dupicate photos everywhere, and multiple syncs of the same photos?
Also, what is the best way to manage my iPhone photos generally? I'm never sure if I delete a photo from my phone, does it delete it on my computer via iCloud? Sometimes I just take a picture to send to a friend that I don't need to keep, while others are ones I want to sync to my computer. Can I control when deleting that it be deleted everywhere or just on the device? And alternately, can I choose certain photos not to sync via iCloud?
iCloud makes me nervous. Once when I wanted to place all photos of my pup into a folder, I selected the photos on my iPhone and accidentally clicked delete instead of move. No big deal, I figured they'd be at home sync'd on the cloud. But since I'd deleted them on my phone, the cloud deleted them on my home computer too and the photos were lost.

I am presuming that we cannot share downloaded apps and music between accounts because of the copyright issue,
Though I'm no copyright lawyer, as long as it's within a household, you can share content among users. Such sharing is, absent specific language preventing it not present in the iTunes Store terms of use, generally considered to be "personal use". So you can share apps and music amongst your users on your computer and with their devices. You just can't give any of that content to friends or relatives who don't live with you.
What I am not clear on, it making sure that this appears in each itunes account - is it easy to find the file storage folders that match the itunes accounts and what would these be?
The iTunes library and files are by default in a user's Home/Music folder. But you don't have to find the folder; in fact putting a file into the folder yourself won't add the file to iTunes. Just drag the file into the iTunes window. iTunes will copy it to the correct location.

What's the best way to export Photos from Aperture to iPhoto

Hi,
so heres the deal:
My father has a really old/slow mac and whenever he tries to export more than like 3 photos from aperture the computer freezes.
So to get his photos i thaught i could just copy his aperture library onto my external hd.
but will i be able to import the photos into iphoto? and i'd like to not have the originals but the edited photos.
or will i have to export the photos from aperture (e.g. with my brothers, faster mac...)

Paul, do your father and you have compatible versions of iPhoto and Aperture? Aperture 3.3 and iPhoto 9.3 or later?
Aperture 3.3: Using a unified photo library with iPhoto and Aperture
With the new, unified library architecture you can simply open an Aperture library in iPhoto - no need to import anything.
If the Aperture library is not compatible, from an older Aperture version, you can try to export the versions on your brother's mac (file > Export > Versions).
My father has a really old/slow mac and whenever he tries to export more than like 3 photos from aperture the computer freezes.
That is not normal, however old the mac is.
Either his hard drive is too full and needs freeing disk space, or he has imported corrupted images, or his Aperture library needs repairing or rebuilding. He should try to repair his library, if he has used "force quit" on Aperture. See: Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library: Aperture 3 User Manual

Just a note: if you Option-drag the thumbnail to the Desktop you'll get the original file. Regular dragging will get you the preview version or the edited version if it's been edited in Photos.

Best way to merge photos from different macs

What is the best way to merge photo libraries from different macs onto one mac?

The only way to merge Libraries - versions, metadata etc - is with the paid ($20) version of iPhoto Library Manager
Other than that you will need to export from one Library to the Finder and then import to the other. This won’t get all the Metadata (for instance, Faces) and won't get the Versions either.

Best way to export iPhoto library?

Hey folks,
I was wondering what is the best way to export all the master/unedited images I have in my iPhoto 11' collection just to have it all in the Photos folder. I would like to start making the move to Lightroom 4 and give it a test drive. It would be nice to keep the organizational structure that I have going on now in iPhoto with my events. Can any one help? If Lightroom doesnt work out for me, I would want to make a referenced iPhoto Library and keep the images in the photos folder. Thanks for the help.

Have a look at my first post on this thread, which predates that export option in iPhoto, that pretty much deals with the issue with older versions. One of those options is free.
I'm just kind of irked by the idea that you should treat folders and files on your own computer as untouchable.
There are a couple of ways to look at this.
One: they're not at all untouchable. You have described perfectly how you might touch them. What we're saying is that touching them in that way may cause you dataloss, but if you want to do that, knock yourself out . But know the risks you're running. Look at it this way: there's no reason you have to use the doors on your car. You can jump through the sunroof, but don't be surprised if you hurt yourself on the gearstick.
Two: If you're the kind of person who really needs to visit with your files and folders for some reason, then run a referenced library. It makes for more work, adds zero extra capability and is likely to store up issues for the inexperienced user, but it's quite possible. For more about how, and the pitfalls:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3062728?tstart=0
Three: The bigger issue here is that you're going to have problems in the future. The files/folders metaphor is going away in computing now. Everything - even text editors - are becoming databases. The files are just dumb storage, the important part is the data - the actual photos. iPhoto is about the data, not the files. The Finder is about files.
These two user tips explain this is more detail:

What's the best way to share photos?

Now that MobileMe Gallery is gone, what's the best way to share photos over the internet?
Is there some simple method where I can upload an entire album from iPhoto and then send a link to others so they can view them?
I've tried both Flickr and Shutterfly and did not like either.

Why can't iPhoto just pull the images from a media browser or something over the network?
I don't know. Part of the issue has to be that iPhoto is not a HD browser. Another part is what you mean by " ... just pull the images".
Any tips on creating a locally hosted web gallery?
My greatest single tip of all time: try it! The tools available to use for just a few hundred dollars are astoundingly powerful.
Or... does anyone have any Automator magic they'd like to share?
No need. Web galleries are built into Aperture 3. Put the images you want to be in the gallery in one Album (Smart or otherwise). Select all the images. Click "New→Web Page". Select a theme. Change some of the text. Make some other changes. Click "Export Web Pages ... ". Make some more decisions. Give the folder a name. Save it somewhere with access to those whom you wish to see it. Select "Tell me when done". Check your email (have a coffee). Click "Show in Finder". Open the folder. Double-click the file "index.html". Brilliant! Enjoy.
The trick to sharing this is to make the folder available. The index file will always open the web site pages in a web browser.

What is the best way to export a movie to avoid losing quality?

I need to get a movie I made on a DVD somehow, but I seem to loose quality in color and overall sharpness when I take it into iDVD and burn a disc. This movie will be projected very large, so I need the best quality possible. What is the best way to export it for the highest quality?

There's been a ton of testing reported here on this issue, but I don't think there is a consensus on the "best" method. For one thing, it depends on what you're starting with.
In my experience with DV video and hi-res photos, it was tough to beat the result I got exporting "large" to the media browser. (Because of my DV footage, HD was not an option.) This made a H.264 file. I could only get a slight improvement by exporting via Quicktime to a H.264 file at double the resolution of the "large" file made by iMovie. Of course this took longer to export and for iDVD to encode. Overall, I'd say it wasn't worth it for the barely visible improvement. That improvement was only detectable in the slides, BTW, not in the DV video.
Many recommend exporting to AIC, which should be an essentially lossless export out of iMovie. This is what the share to iDVD supposedly does, I got poor results with any flow that used an AIC file exported out of iMovie for use by iDVD. Never figured out why, but my results were always better if I compressed to H.264 on the way out of iMovie.

Best Way to Export Single Tracks in Audition

Hello,
What is the best way to export one single track (stereo or 5.1) from a multiple track mix in the Multitrack Editor if I want to make it mono? Is it by just muting the tracks I don´t want in the final mixdown and then selecting a mono Master in the Mixdown Options box?
What about exporting only a few of the tracks from a multiple track mix to one mono file? Same process?
Thanks!

"Export all Tracks as Audio Files" found under File>Export.
This will render audio files of your software instruments that start at bar 1, beat 1, and can be dragged right into Pro Tools. The export happens "pre-fader", so it is bounced at unity gain, and excludes any automation.
If there is automation that needs to be included (like a filter sweep or something like that), you'll need to solo the track, and bounce it, because a bounced file does include automation.
Also, if you're using a multi-channel instrument, you'll need to bounce those tracks separately as well.

What is the best way to export the data out of BW into a flat file on the S

Hi All,
We are BW 7.01 (EHP 1, Service Pack Level 7).
As part of our BW project scope for our current release, we will be developing certain reports in BW, and for certain reports, the existing legacy reporting system based out of MS Access and the old version of Business Objects Release 2 would be used, with the needed data supplied from the BW system.
What is the best way to export the data out of BW into a flat file on the Server on regular intervals using a process chain?
Thanks in advance,
- Shashi

Hello Shashi,
some comments:
1) An "open hub license" is required for all processes that extract data from BW to a non-SAP system (including APD). Please check with your SAP Account Executive for details.
2) The limitation of 16 key fields is only valid when using open hub for extracting to a DB table. There's no such limitation when writing files.
3) Open hub is the recommended solution since it's the easiest to implement, no programming is required, and you don't have to worry much about scaling with higher data volumes (APD and CRM BAPI are quite different in all of these aspects).
For completeness, here's the most recent documentation which also lists other options:

Best way to export from AVCHD to highest quality possible

Hello,
I just got the Canon HF200, a AVCHD Camcorder and new to Premiere Pro CS4.
Does anyone have the time and is willing to explain what would be the best way to export AVCHD source material after editing ?
I'm interested in the best quality you can get out of AVCHD.
It would be nice to have a list of the settings in Premiere to be customized (i.e. setting up new project, exporting format settings and so on) to have the best quality of the footage exported.
Thanks in advance
best regards
checop

Geezus the guy just wants a simple answer.
MASTER FILE / FOR YOUR BLU RAY PLAYER / ARCHIVAL
1) use the Bluray H.264 preset to get a Bluray master. Best quality, takes a while to encode though.
Unless it's a five hour movie I'm pretty sure it'll fit on a BD disc.
GENERAL RULE OF THUMB FOR ARCHIVAL AND MASTER FILES: try to match the final product with your source file.
If your source is H.264/AVCHD export in that format too (In this case, Bluray H264 preset)
If it's 1080i then export as such
If it's 24Mbps then use that bitrate to export as too. Etc. etc. etc.
Now that's for archiving - getting the best looking Master file. Uploading your movie to the web is different...
IF YOU'RE GOING TO SHOW YOUR MOVIE ON THE WEB
1) use that Bluray master (or encode directly from your CS 4 timeline if you have the time) to WMV.
Choose the NTSC setting and then customize it.
640 x 360 or 575 x 324 sizes are good; Make sure to use the SQUARE pixels option since the sizes here are figured for that. Keyframes every 2 seconds, or every 5 seconds if there's not a lot of movement and background business going on. In the 1000 - 1600 kbps range is good (larger dimensions = higher bitrate).
Audio 96/44 is fine.
Choose 2 Pass Variable Bitrate for best quality/size ratio.
If you're using CS4 it'll automatically deinterlace when you encode to WMV. In other programs you need to check "Deinterlace".
2) Flash (FLV) is popular too. Same sizes, you can get away with lower bitrates than WMV. Requires special players either on the web or on the users' desktop so only do this if you feature the movie on your site and you know how to make a SWF file with your FLV embedded.
Lost me here? Then just forget Flash for now.
Other Primer Notes (VERY GENERALIZED SPEAKING):
Forget MPEG 1. Bad quality/size ratio compared to WMV.
Use MPEG 2 for archival purposes, but use high bitrates (like 1920 x 1080 @ 24 Mbps or similar. )
Quicktime is good for archiving too but takes a long time to encode on PCs. Not worth it for web delivery anymore... although there will be Mac fanatics disagreeing with me right now.
Hope this helps

What is the best way to export a cutterline from photoshop?
Wie exportiere ich am am besten einen Schnittlinie aus Photoshop? Ich bekomme von einem Wort immer nur den ersten Buchstaben exportiert, obwohl alles gerastert auf einer Ebene liegt.
Thank you! Vielen Dank!

What are you talking about exactly?
If you need to export vector data Photoshop is not the first choice but if you have Type Layers (without faux styles), Vector Masks or Paths it is possible.
alles gerastert auf einer Ebene
does not seem to make sense in this context though.
