Can't batch process metadata since updating to 3.5

I used to be able to highlight several images in the Library Grid mode, type in a Metadata Label, and that label would be applied to all of the images. Doesn't work any longer. What am I missing? Doesn't work for Keywords either.

Okay, that worked. Now, I have never seen nor used that "Show Metadata 
for Target Photo Only" option. How in the world did it get checked?

  • Can I batch process? I need identical effect processing of multiple video files

    I have just joined Creative Cloud, so these are very basic questions.....sorry.
    I shoot videos of live bands using two cameras, so I usually end up with around 25 separate songs per show and 50 separate files (2 cams, two files per song). All the files are: 1920x1080 resolution, 23.976p frame rate, Pro Res 422 codec.
    I currently edit in FCPX and color correct in DaVinci Resolve.
    Because of low light conditions, I often need to use the effect Neat Video to remove noise. However, FCPX doesn't like Neat Video: freezes up, will restart rendering sometimes, etc.
    So, I need a way to take the color-corrected files from Resolve and process with Neat Video, then import them into FCPX for multi-cam editing. (If Premiere Pro handles Neat Video well, then I may switch from FCPX  to Premiere Pro and do it all there.........but I need time to learn Premiere Pro).
    So I decided to try After Effects for this. I just tested some files in AE and the Neat Video processing went well.
    However, I need to batch process the files if possible. Currently for each file I am:
    (1) Setting up a Composition
    (2) Adding the Neat Video effect to the file
    (3) Using the Neat Video window to adjust settings
    (4) Setting the render settings
    With my approach I will have to set up 50 separate Compositions.
    Questions:
    (1) Can I batch process all 50 files, with one set of settings? (I tried using multiple files in one composition, but AE only rendered out the top file).
    (2) Can I tell AE that I want the render settings to be the same as the imported files (resolution, frame rate, etc.), rather than having to enter the render settings each time? I just want the rendered files to be identical to the original files, except for Neat Video processing.
    Thanks for your help.

    I don't think Mylenium understood you. You need to not only bring each of 50 clips into it's own Comp but then you need to apply an effect (Neat Video) to each one before going out to the Render Queue... right?
    Here's what I would do. Import all 50 clips into your project. Select all of them and drag to Comp button (on the bottom of the Project panel) or right click - "New Comp from Selection". In the dialog that pops up selct "Single Composition", use dimensions from the clip of your choosing, select "Add to Render Queue" and select "Sequence Layers". Open the Comp and select all the layers (they may already be selected), apply the default Neat Video Effect to all of them (or apply it to one, tweak it, select all the other layers and copy/paste it).
    Now download this script...
    http://www.redefinery.com/ae/view.php?item=rd_RenderLayers
    In After Effects go to File/Scripts/Run Script File and choose the rd_RenderLayers script. Make sure you are happy with the Render Module settings and the file naming and off you go.
    You'll have all 50 clips in 1 Comp, with one place to copy effects and then each layer gets output back to an individual file.

  • Batch Processing doesn't update files in Premiere Pro CS5.5

    Hi,
    I'm not sure if this question should be under 'Audition' or 'Premiere Pro', but I'm selecting a large range of audio clips (from a wedding ceremony) and sending to Audition from Premiere (selecting 'Edit in Adobe Audition')
    When the clips appear in the files section of Audition I select 'Batch Process', drop them in and make the batch process start. When everything is finished and the files are automatically saved, I head over to Premiere to see if the wav's have updated - but nothing. Everything is exactly the same.
    Any help would be great?
    I'm not adding any prefix's etc to the filename, and I'm selecting 'overwrite existing files' and 'same location as original files'.
    Cheers,
    Thomas

    Hi Durin,
    Sorry for the delay, had a couple of deadlines to meet and ended up doing the hundred-or-so clips one-by-one in audition to get it done.
    That's the issue exactly, I go back to Premiere after doing the batch process (and they all auto-save) but Premiere doesn't update the waveform or in fact the audio doesn't show the changes I've just made. The strange thing is that if I do them one by one, then Premiere recognizes the changes and I can get on with it.
    The steps I take are: 1) Drop the clip in the timeline, do a bunch of editing (occasionally nesting and multi-cam editing a sequence). 2) Right click and Edit in Audition 3) Open Batch Process in Audition 4) Drag drop all the files just sent to Audition from Premiere, into the Batch Process section 5) Run batch process 6) Go back to Premiere and see if it's updated in the timeline. I wait, and wait, but nothing. Everytime.
    I'm thinking it's something simple I've clicked, but have no idea what. Either that or it's some sort of bug issue.
    I will be upgrading to CS6 creative cloud soon, hopefully that'll fix it.
    If you have any ideas, I'd love to hear them. Otherwise, thanks for trying.

  • Can't batch process opening files with certicate encryption

    Using Acrobat 9.0 pro.
    I am unable to batch proces files that are certicate encrypted.
    When batch processed a dialog message appears that reads;
    Cannot open document
    No files were processed
    I have used the instructions that adobe has for using the associated digital id and ensuring this is logged in.
    And also have set preferences for batch processing  security method to certificate security, no password and, password security.
    FYI: I Don't have livecycle so can't try this.
    Can anyone help with a solution for doing this.
    I was able to create certificate encrypted files using batch processing so can't understand why I now can't open and print file created this way, since
    Acrobat help indicates this can be done.
    Adobe instructions indicate this should work??? What's wrong here.
    Thanks in advance

    I may have to do with the name of the folder, such as having periods or slashes in the folder name.

  • Can fireworks batch processing work as a background process?

    Hi,m
    I have a simple problem.  Whenever I am batch processing a large number of images (fireworks cs4 windfows 7 64bit) fireworks steals focus every time it starts work on a new image so I can't work on other things while it works.  This is frustrating since I am working on a powerful mulkticore computer and need to crack on while fireworks does its thang.
    Is there a way to tell fireworks to work in the background and stay quiet until I go back to it?
    Jim

    You speak of a problem that exists in CS4 and is fixed in CS5. Unfortunately, there is no easy fix for CS4...
    1) On Windows XP Professional, if you use a tiny app by Microsoft, called "TweakUI", you can set a setting that is called "Prevents applications from stealing focus". Once the setting is active, Fireworks CS4 (and older versions) cannot steal focus in WinXP, no matter what -- including batch processing.
    2) But for Windows 7, there exists no such app, so TweakUI is not an option... You may try a trial of Fireworks CS5 and see if it works better for you; or you can try to find an app, similar to TweakUI, but for Windows 7.
    Hope this helps!

  • How can I batch process 4 diff image sizes from 1 master?

    Hi there
    What I would like to do is create 4 separate image files of varying sizes (large, medium, small & extra small) from one master image. I would need the ability to name each file individually too, ie. picture1_large, picture1_medium etc
    I have a few thousand files to process so ideally a solution that I didnt have to keep checking on would be preferable. I know I can create a batch process for one size but its creating the four diff sizes in a batch which im finding  difficult to work out.
    any help would be much appreciated
    Jim

    Simply drag the entire folder through Bridge—or even individual files—the invisible xmp files containing your adjustments will automatically and invisibly travel along with the image files, as long as you do it within Bridge, not through the OS.
    Otherwise, you would need to set your Mac OS to always make invisible files visible, and you don't want that hassle.
    Just use Bridge to move files around or to copy them to a new folder.
    Incidentally, there's a dedicated Adobe Bridge forum:

  • I can't see incoming calls since update when I'm on the phone

    I can't see incoming calls since the update when I'm on the phone with someone. The calls don't show up in my recent as missed either.

    I went through the steps as suggested.
    Until someone calls through, I won't know if my swap icon appears, and I can see who my incoming caller is. I'll let you know when that happens.
    Geez, I have a 4 not a 5, no wonder my phone did not appear up to date!

  • How can I batch process files to change name and extention in the latest photoshop cc ?

    Hi,
    The batch process function has changed design recently and I cannot get it to change file names in photoshop cc 2014.
    I keep getting new layers in the first file to open instead of a renamed batch.
    I would also like to convert files to jpeg and resize ( at the same time ? )
    thank you for help in advance,
    christos

    Can't help you with CC, but you cannot change files types by merely changing the extension, regardless of program or version.

  • Can't activate Iphone 4 since updating to IOS 7.1.1 yesterday

    I've had this iphone 4 since december 2013. It was a gift from a relative in Japan. Since factory unlocking it costs way too much, i decided to just use it as an ipod. I've been using it since then to browse the web, watch videos on youtube, etc with no problem. Updating it to newer ios versions was pretty easy too, i never had to use my pc and could just update it through just the phone alone until yesterday when my iphone said that there's a newer version of ios available which was iso 7.1.1 i was already on ios 7 , so i updated but after updating, the itunes logo appeared and said i needed to connect the phone  to itunes and restore it before i can use it. it was the first time i ever had to do that, so i did. After connecting it to itunes, itunes downloaded the newest software, i waite dfor two hours and after installing the new software, it told me to restore the iphone, i did and i thought everything was fine again but after the iphone screen turned on, it told me to do the basic set up such as the language, wifi connection, and then said that i needed a sim to activate it. i never needed s sim ever since the iphone was given to me why does it require it now?? i was so ****** cause the phone's from softbank japan, how could i possibly get a sim card from them here. My iphone isn't  unlocked, jailbroken, etc, i never had it modified whatsoever so why is it acting up now? how can i fix this? i coudn't get thtough the sim activation screen and when i connect it to itunes it either tells me to restore it again or shows me a screen that the phone is not activated and needs a sim or something along that line.
    Sorry for the lengthy post. How can i fix this? Thanks!

    Thanks for replying. I remembered that there was a used softbank regular sized simcard in the box, we tried it before in a iphone 3gs also from softbank it didn't work. I cut it to a micro sim ,(i googled on how to do it), and still didn't work on my iphone4. i guess the simcard isn't working anymore and i need a new one that actually works. Well off to searching i go!

  • Batch Processing fails since upgrading tree

    I've got a customer who has a custom legacy dos executable that runs a
    batch file, maps a drive, and sends an attachment to one of their remote
    4.11 servers. Until recently, this has worked wonderful for them.
    However, in the past week, we have added a 6.5 server to the tree and
    before doing so, we had to upgrade all the servers to run DS 6.21.
    Since doing this, some (not all) of the runs have stopped working. For
    some reason, some of the servers we try to connect to, we're getting an
    error now when we attempt to run our batch commands. The error is 89FC
    (Can not get connection status) and our map fails, and then our batch
    fails. Actually, what happens is is the user we're trying to map with
    has no password, but when we run our batch file, it now asks us for a
    password for about 5 of the servers we do this with. The other servers
    work fine, just these 5 servers no longer work.
    We use a very old version of map.exe because our application is memory
    bound and this map.exe is 48K.
    Any ideas would be appreciated.

    I am having some of the same problems except the server that is requiring a password (and did not used to) is the master replica. Any ideas? We use this server to store document images and we have a user that we used to connect to through DOS batch files (up until we upgraded the server to NW 6.5/OES sp7). It now requires a password no matter what we do. Even if we have a password on the user login, it gets the following error :
    Can not get connection status (89fc)
    I cannot find a way around this. Any ideas would be great.

  • "Safari can't find server" errors since updating to 6.0.5

    Hi,
    Anyone else experiencing consistent errors from Safari after the latest update? Once I've updated to the new Safari on my Mac (on Mountain Lion 10.8.4), the errors start to appear on my of the URLs that I'm trying to access. I tried Chrome as well and it's the same issue.
    I'm also having Network Connection errors in iTunes when updating apps.

    Triple-click the line of text below to select it:
    kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' | open -f -a TextEdit 
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). A TextEdit window will open. Post the contents of that window, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
