Captions appearing over photo in Develop?

For some reason, the photo captions have started appearing in quite large font over the top left of the photo in Develop. How do I remove them? And why did they suddenly appear? (the answer to the first will probably answer the second).Thanks.
Richard

Use the "I" key to cycle through the view options (there are three modes: Info Overlay 1, Info Overlay 2, and Off).

Can't get title and time/date from appearing over photo in Develop or Library

I must have done this when I was trying to do some other keyboard shortcut and got the wrong one - and now I can't figure out how to get rid of it. But a few weeks ago, I did something and now the file name, date/time and image size appear in white text over the top-left of any photo I have in the Develop or Library screens:
So you can see "_MG_0955.CR2" and the other details in the clouds there. Does anyone know how to get rid of that? I can't find anything in any of the menus. I'm on Lightroom 4.3 for Mac OSX Mountain Lion.
Thanks!

Ltter I on you keyboard cycles through the info of the Loupe View (same in Develop Module).
You set what you want to see by pressing Cmd. + J - and select the parameters for Info 1 and Info2.
Letter I cycles thus: Info 1 - Info 2 - No overlay.

Coloured boxes suddenly appeared over photos

I have been using lightroom for quite awhile now and never occurred a similar problem..
I was using lightroom3 today when all of the suddenly some of my pictures (far away from all) got like a coloured box on top of them.. I have attached a photo since it's a little hard to explain. Please notice that a very small part of all of the pictures is still as normal and the colour box seems to somewhat match the colours of the specific photos.. This is not a recently uploaded catalog and it has always worked fine. The weird thing is that even the original photos in My Documents look the same when previewed in the folder.. However- The exact photos look perfectly normal when opened with Microsoft's Picture Manager.
Do you guys pls have any idea about what can be wrong?

Select one of those images and go to the Develop Module. Is it OK there?
For that matter, how does it look in the Loupe, when you double-click on the thumbnail in Grid view?
I'm thinking that your preview cache has been corrupted somehow.

Creating captions attached to photos

Hi
I am working on a large genealogy project and have just scanned in hundreds of old family photos collected from many relatives. I would like to add captions with the names of the people in the photos so that future generations will also be able to identify who is on the photo. iphoto only allows to add comments etc in the comments box but not in such a way that the caption appears together with the photo. I would then like to reimport the photo with attached caption into iphoto for further processing.
I have seen a webpage describing a PC program called "Breezebrowser" (http://www.rideau-info.com/genealogy/digital/captioning.html) which allows PC users to add captions to photos. Unfortunately, I have not yet been able to find an equivalent program. I have downloaded trial versions of "Comic life", "Portraits and Prints" and "Photo Mechanic", but neither seems to be doing what I need.
Any help would be appreciated.

What I did was put the info for each picture in the Comments field in iPhoto. Then I would group the photos as desired and use the File->Export->Web Page menu option create web galleries for each batch. They would be saved to a folder appropriately named for the group. Then you could open the "index.html" file for each folder with your browser, yes even PC can view them, and view the photos, with captions/comments/file names, with your internet browser. I burned multiple folders of galleries to each CD or many to a DVD disk. If you want more control over the gallery, try using BetterHTMLExport, CustomHTMLExport or Galerie. They have terrific themes and can produce great looking galleries.

Why do I get a blue rectangle covering photo in Develop module?

I have purchased upgrade to LR6 (or is it LR CC?). The new software downloaded, installed, updated the catalog so it seems to function normally. When I first opened the program, it seemed ok, but soon a large blue rectangle (with an X across it) appeared over the selected photo in the Library module. I signed out and signed back in; I restarted my computer. The rectangle was still there, but I saw that no module was highlighted. When I clicked on Library, the rectangle disappeared. So, I thought I'd fixed the problem. BUT, the rectangle persists in the Develop module (only there). The controls do seem to work (if I click the crop rectangle, I can see it in the upper right preview window), but I can't see through the rectangle to actually edit anything.
Any ideas? (I run Windows 7, 64-bit)
Gail Goldey

Dear Jim,
I appreciate your continuing help on this. What I've been told is that
this suggestion is a bit backwards. System is set up to use whichever card
the software calls for. Computer has no way of knowing what LR wants or
needs; it's the software (LR) that has to choose among the available
cards. I don't know how to tell LR to choose the NVIDIA--LR should be set
up to make that choice. So, this sounds like a software problem. Perhaps
you can ask how to tell LR to do this? I'm not sure I can find this out.
(LR5.7 didn't have this issue, so it's somewhere in the changed software;
system is unchanged.)
The following is generic--but I hope you'll find it of some use.
I can't be alone in being frustrated by the need for expert advice whenever
Adobe does a software update or upgrade. If my system is adequate and
up-to-date, why should it take hours and hours of my time (and yours), and
possibly some esoteric tweak, to fix a problem?
Though you have been working hard to be helpful, Adobe generally is
not--unless one wants to spend hours repeating oneself on the phone and
days waiting for a query to reach the proper level, etc. Been there; done
that. It isn't fun. Even community inquiries (like how to deal with the
awful new Windows email interface) more often than not go unanswered.
Adobe seems to be trying to get individual and non-professional
photographers to increase or upgrade their involvement with Adobe software
and related products. Perhaps many such users would be happy to turn off
their GPUsas I am notbut it seems to me that Adobe needs to think more
about how ordinary people, not just sophisticated computer users, can work
with its software. I'm pretty sure that expert users also would be happier
with more seamless transitions.
Thanks for hearing me out. Trying to be helpful and not just complaining.

What determines whether the Label name and/or Caption appears in the context help window but in other cases, both the label and caption appear in the context help window?

I am trying to polish an application, and find that I cannot seem to reliably control which of the label or caption text appears in the context help window because I don't understand what rules are in place to determine which should appear. It seems like if I reate a named constant, then use it's right click menu command "Create Indicator" I get a control with only a Label (as long as I don't add a caption). This then appears in the context help window as the label name followed by the description text (after entering some description text). But if I add a caption, the label name is shown in bracket
s which is a 'feature' I would like to avoid, because I have certain controls where I would like to use a descriptive variable name on the block diagram side without using so much space on the front panel. It seems like there is no way to avoid showing the Label name in the context help for a control/indicator. Is this true?
I thought the purpose of having a seperate caption was to make the text that appears with a control programmatically controllable, but if that control is not extended to what appears in the context help window, it limits the usefulness of the caption and forces me to re-consider some Label names. However, the problem goes deeper than that because then even when I make the label and caption exactly the same, or if I delete (via a select caption text-backspace or select caption text- delete key .. sequence) the caption for a control, the label name in the context help window still appears in square brackets!
Can I have complete control over the context help fo
r a particular control (or has anyone found a third-party context help solution that functions compatibly with LabVIEW 7 in a built application that they will be so kind as to recommend?)
I have used LabVIEW for three years, and I am now using LabVIEW 7.0.

Sorry for that.. I was changing the text of my question and didn't read carefully enough in the preview stage. I wanted it to read "What determines whether the Label name and/or Caption appears in the context help window?"

Captions and Reorganizing Photos

My wife uses Adobe PSE 4 on her Windows XP laptop and won't switch to the PSE 9 software I bought her. She has 12,000+ photos in her Organizer catalog, and the underlying files are scattered all over two hard drive partitions. Many of them are duplicated (the thumbnails and sometimes the files themselves). Some thumbnails are disconnected and I can't find the files when I try to reconnect them. Many of them also have Captions that she has painstakingly added over the last 8 years. Because her drives are almost full, and she is annoyed with all the dupes, but doesn't want to lose her Captions, I have been tasked with getting everything back in order, including getting all the photo files themselves located in a high level directory (folder location).
I created a new "master" directory and started locating/moving some photo files there. I figured out that after I move them, PSE 4 will reconnect them, with captions, if I select the thumbnails in Organizer and then use Update Thumbnails from the right-click context menu. However, that's extremely time consuming and unreliable, because once I've moved a batch of files (in Windows Explorer), I have trouble finding them in Organizer photo bin to work with them, and the "batches" of files I've moved are not physically adjacent to each other (by date or whatever) in the Organizer photo bin. Also, Organizer wants to import files into the new "Watched" master folder location (which may or may not be duplicates, or new files that were never catalogued to begin with).
Is there a faster and easier way to do these basic tasks?:
1. Ensure that the captions stay with the photo files (preferably as part of each file's metadata in case Adobe blows up or loses its PSE catalog links).
2. Move the photo files in Windows Explorer as desired (I'm can handle that part).
3. Recatalog/reconnect the files, making SURE that I don't lose the Captions. Or the redating she did on many of them when the camera date wasn't set right.
4. Elimate the duplicate files, but only those WITHOUT Captions, so that I don'l lose those WITH Captions.
Yeah, I know this is a pretty big mess, but I've spent hours already researching and trying to do this project. If there's a better way to do this by upgrading to PSE 9 or a later version, I could do that, but it needs to run reliably on an older laptop with Win XP, and the biggest thing is that if I lose her Captions (or the date changes she's made when the camera had the wrong date), I'm toast.
If there's a way to write the Captions and Dates established in the PSE catalog into each file's metadata, then re-extract that into a completely new catalogue, I could do that, too, perhaps, as a way of getting my arms around this. That assumes PSE 4 can overwrite the metadata first, then retrieve those fields from the files into the new catalog (but if it can, I have no idea how to do that).
Thanks for any strategy and tips.

You can move the photos within the PSE4 Organizer (in Folder Location View, Alt-Ctrl-3) and then you don't have to reconnect.
You can write the captions to the photos files, for the photos that are connected, via File->Write Tags ...
There are a gazillion threads here on how to find duplicates, I suggest you search for them.
Upgrading to PSE9 won't fix the mess. Starting a new catalog will cause loss of captions and other metadata for disconnected photos. And if you have reconnected the photos, you don't need a new catalog; it won't buy you anything.
Once finished, I suggest you adopt policies that don't cause duplicates, and don't cause dis-connected photos, and that don't wind up with photos all over the hard disk. Not hard to do.

Image toolbar appears over Crystal reports chart in Infoview

I am publishing Crystal reports developed across a Universe in my BusinessObjects Enterprise XI Release 2 InfoView. I have done few line charts in the Crystal reports. I am running on Internet Explorer 7 but my clients are running on Internet Exploreer 6.0. When my clients view Crystal reports (in Infoview) on their browser, the charts are identified as images in their infoview by Internet Explorer 6 browser and it keeps showing the Image toolbar ( the small toolbar which popups over the images in IE 6 prompting you to Save this image/Open this image/Save In My Pictures toolbar etc..)
Please try this link http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie6/using/howto/customizing/phototoolbar.mspx to know what an image toolbar is.
This little feature got included in Intenet Explorer 6 by which any image identified by the web browser will automatically popup this Image toolbar. It won't happen in Internet Explorer 7.0.
If i am developing a website and do not want this image toolbar appearing over my images in my site I can code accordingly. But i am clueless about the Crystal Reports/Business Objects Infoview environment and how to get rid of this toolbar.
The one option i got is to ask my users who use IE 6.0 to go to Tools->Internet Options->Advanced tab->Multimedia ->uncheck the checkbox Enable image toolbar. Unfortunately my users login under citrix environment and their default browser settings will be restored every day morning they login.
Any ideas?

Hi Michael,
Unfortunately BusinessObjects does not control these settings when accessing the InfoView. It sounds like it'll need to be addressed by the system administrator to disable that option in IE through user profiles/applications.
Regards,
Wallie

HT201317 Photo stream doesn't work wen I take photo,photos doesn't appear in photo stream ?

Photo stream doesn't work , wen I take photo, photos doesn't appear in photo stream

Welcome to the Apple Community.
    1.    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
    2.    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
    3.    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

I have a white haze over photos when taking a picture with my flash

I have a white haze over photos when taking a picture with my flash. What can I do to fix it?

After the ios7 update, my wife's phone began having these same issues and we assumed it was a flaw with the update.
But after some trial and error, we concluded it was the illumination of the white plastic backing of the iPhone 4. We tried a different protective case, we blackened the apeture of the black case with a black sharpie, none of those things worked.
It was noted that the white and blurry photos only occurred with a case installed. Without a case, the photos were perfect. It is a *** issue.
Since we were using a case and appearance was not that big of an issue, I decided to apply a strip of black electrical tape with holes punched out for the camera and flash mechanisms and reapplied the protective case. This tacky fix solved 95% of the white blurry look to the flash photos.
So a work-around is to apply a non-transparent piece of tape, or sticker with appropiate sized holes for the camera lens and flash LED on the back of the white plastic phone case. It's tacky, it's a poor design from apple, but it works.

Is anyone using iPhoto having a problem with the slide show using shatter where it does not let you put a title over photo?

Is anyone using iPhoto having a problem with the slide show using shatter where it does not let you put a title over photo? It use to work but it no longer lets you place a title over the opening photo.

Is your signature still current?(iPhoto '08, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4)) I can confirm this for iPhoto '11; Shatter will only show the text slide title between the slides. Ken Burns and Classic theme can still be set to overlay the caption and title directly over the slides.

Rollover - make highlight and caption appear

I'm creating a screenshot tour of our application, and I want
to allow the user to hover over different areas of the screen --
which then produces a highlight box that greys out the rest of the
screen and a text caption appears with information about that area.
I've tried using the rollover caption, but the highlight box
appears at all times instead of on rollover.
Has anyone found a way to do this?
Thanks,
Heather

I know this is an older question but this may help. I liked
the answer Captiv8r gave and it gave me an idea. The main issue is
not only the rollover but the hightlight box.
The problem I see is a highlight box will appear by the time
line but the rollover by the mouse. I don't see how they would ever
work together predictably.
I took a cue from the example and I created an image that had
part of the screen with areas grayed out and the text. I created
two images and combined them into one and made that image the
rollover. It looked pretty good for a quick version.
The problem I have had in doing this is to have rollovers for
an entire computer screen can be too much for one slide. That is
why I have always used multiple slides of the same screen and let
the user navigate over them to learn the complete screen.

Is there a way to remove the text that appears over dock icons when the cursor is over them?

Is there any way to remove the text that appears over dock icons when you hover over them? Or at least make it time out, or become more transparent?

You can do that with the Menu Editor extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/menu-editor/
This extension has not been updated by its author in a couple of years, but another developer has updated it for Firefox 4, you can get the updated version from http://netticat.ath.cx/MyAddons/MyAddons.htm#3rdpartyaddons
