Category is indexed in another catalog even if doesn't exist in it. Ideas?

Hi All,
We have a situation, where a product belongs to two catalogs, and that product have one ancestor category in one of the catalogs, but not in another catalog. Now, we see that after indexing, the ancestor category of that product is indexed in both catalogs, even though, that category doesn't exist in another catalog. How do we restrict that category to be indexed in non-parent catalog. Kindly suggest some resolutions.
Regards,
Isha

AS you mentioned that the Product is Belongs to the Both the catalogs. So when you are indexing The IndexedItemsGroup.rule property will have Only Null Check of the Parent Catalog Not the category(OOTB Default rule).
Can you please elaborate the Scenario.

How can I Add a photo to a catalog from inside another catalog

I have a number of large catalogs with a small subset of pictures that have been edited and printed. I'd like to be able to have just a catalog of printed images so i can easily find them, reprint them, edit them etc. but not move them from their original catalog or original location. Is there an easy way i can do this. I know i can export the image as a catalog and then import the images to another catalog. But that requires opening and closing 3 catalogs. Is there just an add file to catalog and then a list of my catalogs would show up?

Hi Howie,
I also would approach this topic by analyzing "why did you use multiple catalogs" in the past? What functionality exactly did you want to get with that?
Then ask/search what other means/features could fulfill the same need. As some others in this post I am confident that there are sufficient.
Sometimes I think the term "catalog" was not chosen very wisely over a term "database", because people might tend to think of paper catalogs of the analogous world. Then e.g. such a *catalog* per customer makes sense.
Once you understand that 1 catalog defines the (convenient) boundaries of your pictures' universe you might choose a different approach...
The term "database" might have scared away too may non-IT-savvy users for the taste of marketing department.
Having more than 1 catalog only makes sense to me if you have more than 1 computer to look at your pictures' universe. Even then you should carefully decide which one is master and which one more or less for just looking at or special needs.

Why is Lightroom 5.4 not recognizing existing photos when importing from another catalog?

I have lightroom 5.4 now updated on my studio desktop computer and my laptop when working in the field. I have a folder of images on both computer catalogs and that inlcudes the negatives on each computer. I made a bunch of edits and changes on my laptop of that folder of images and then exported the changes as a catolog to import into my studio catalog but lightroom doesn't recognize the photos when I import from another catalog. Lightroom tries to add the photos as another folder even though the negatives are there and they are already imported into the desktop catog. Why doen't lightroom recognize they are the same images when I'm importing as catalog? I've always done this with past versions of Lightroom with no problems. I'm just exporting the previews since the negative files are already on both computers. What is wrong?

The folder hierarchy has to be exactly the same; the slightest thing can throw it off, an upper case on one machine and lower case on the other or a misspelling.

Envelope or Indexing keeps getting corrupt even after mutliple imports

Similar to the Mail has Gone Nuts post, the indexing for Mac Mail 2.1 on Tiger 10.4.10 keeps getting corrupt although I am not using a .mac account which is what most of that particular post is centered on. I say corrupt as my inbox will say it has several hundred messages but will only show a few messages. I am trying to clean the mailbox up by moving email, deleting, etc. After awhile I cannot move messages out of the inbox to another folder - even when I try to move one email. I can create a new mailbox for archiving but I still cannot move. I ran the disk permission utility to make sure it was not a permission error. After a bit all the mail in the inbox disappears. I delete the envelope file, import to create a new one, and everything is fine for awhile. Then same cycle. Is anyone seeing the same issue or have any clues as to how to fix?

I got on the phone with Apple. We created a test user account and established an identical mailbox with our ISP. The email was downloaded and then it disappeared again when I clicked on the sent email box. Nothing else was loaded. So I was told it was an OSX issue. Reloaded that and mail seems to work now. Have a few other issues now but making some progress.

LOGERROR: **theProduct := index.sucatalog doesn't exist in the catalog!

I keep getting this error in my Software Update Server log:
LOGERROR: **theProduct := index.sucatalog doesn't exist in the catalog!
This is after a clean install of Tiger Server.
Mirrored updates show 91.
I'll upgrade the server to 10.4.6 and hope that that helps.
How do I put index.sucatalog in the catalog?
Thanks,
James.

Gave up.

Importing from another catalog

Does "Import from another catalog" import photos already in the target catalog (i.e. duplicates), or only photos not already there?

The import from another catalog dialog box has several options that you can select or not, as you see fit.
See item 5 here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/lightroom/using/WS9616DD60-0C3A-484b-8413-053347F21456.html

Index not being used even with hint

For this query, I'm getting a full table scan even when specifying a hint:
SELECT /*+ index_ffs (d ix_dunsno_dnb_store_data ) */7 as s_no, 'Number of DNB Records' as name, count(distinct( dnb_duns_number)) as value

However, this query uses an index fast full scan, even without the hint:

Anyone have any ideas??? I'm on oracle 10.2.0.4

API User Hook for Restricting Category Creation in a sepcific catalog

Q: API User Hook for Restricting Category Creation in a sepcific catalog by a specific responsibility. I want to capture GO button process event?
Hi All,
Can anyone help me if anyone have used user hook for OLM? My requirement is to restrict course creation for the specific category... when we select category and select course and click on go button which process is calling? How can we identify the BP Package and Procedure name of that GO button?
urgent reply shall be a great help.
thank you.
Regards,
AD

OK, I just tried to insert an element entry from the API and it works perfectly
The problem seems to be coming from the form. Is the form not using an API?
If this is the case, should I do a personalization and run a PL/SQL procedure each time a change is made?

How do you move one (1) Photo Folder from one Catalog to another Catalog in Lightroom 5?

I want to move one (1) Photo Folder from one Catalog to another Catalog in Lightroom 5 and my laptop (no external hard drive involved). I have already started the editing process in Catalog #1, but due to the size of the Catalog #1, I want to move the current job and future work to a new Catalog.
Currently the backup feature takes an hour to complete. There are also significant delays during large image edits.    So I am thinking, that by moving over to a smaller Catalog, Lightroom will work faster.

Hello ... and thanks for your response.   But I have discovered a couple problems. And I am sure it is "operator error"
I used your method #1. The first window that popped up stated that it was making a temporary copy of the catalog. This took about 20 minutes.
Next, the window showed thumbnail photos on the right and a list of folders in my catalog on the left. The catalog contains folders stored on my LapTop, as well as my external hard drive.
There appeared to be a distinctive difference between those photo folders stored on the external hard drive and those on my LapTop.   The folders on the external drive were named as I have all my folders named: Date_CustomName. The folders stored on my LapTop were named as: Lightroom_5 Backup_Date_CustomName or some such combination and my memory is foggy on the actual use of underscore, slash marks, dashes, etc.
I searched the list closely, and the Folders without a reference to "Lightroom Backup" were not showing.
So as a test, I "added" to the new Catalog one folder from the external hard drive and two from the LapTop.   After the transfer, the new Catalog had accurately named my external hard drive and the folder within in and the photos and their edits transferred accurately.   The other two folders were not named but listed shown in the library module as grey boxes as images with indications of editing. But when I clicked on it, there was a notation that popped up that the file could not be found.
Any ideas?
I am going to create a second new catalog and try your option #2 now.
Thanks

LR5: Import from another catalog - can't copy

From LR4 on my desktop PC, I used to be able to select File->Import From Another Catalog..., navigate to a catalog on a networked laptop, select which photos/dates I want to import, then choose to Copy Photos to a New Location and Import. This would both copy the photos over the network to my desktop, and add the photos to my desktop LR catalog - in one step. Always worked great for me for getting travel laptop photos back into my main desktop & LR catalog.
Both desktop and laptop recently upgraded to LR5. But now when I try this same procedure - the "Import From Another Catalog..." dialog no longer has the option to Copy Photos to a New Location and Import. The only options are Add New Photos To Catalog Without Moving and Don't Import New Photos.
Of course I can work around this by doing it with 2-3 extra steps: I can import over the network like above, but choose Add New Photos to Catalog Without Moving and then later copy the files & find the missing photos. Or export to a separate catalog & copy everything, etc.
So what happend to the Copy Photos to a New Location and Import option in LR5? Was this option removed explicitly? Or is there something else I'm missing (file path permissions, etc) that would cause the option to not be shown? Thanks.
Lightroom 5 64-bit for Windows, ver 5.0
Desktop: Windows 7 64-bit
Laptop: Windows 8 64-bit

OK - never mind. I think I figured it out.
LR appears to only display the Copy Photos to a New Location and Import option when you have a drive letter mapped to the root of the remote volume where the images are stored (and where the remote network catalog is located). Just browsing to the catalog via UNC path doesn't seem to work. Basically, you have to trick LR into thinking the photos are on a local drive.
I think when this was working previously, my desktop probably did have a drive letter permanently mapped to my laptop drive root. That mapped drive seems to have disappeared during the laptop upgrade from Windows 7 -> Windows 8. So no change in behavior between LR4 and LR5.
In general, I find this the quickest & simplest way to get travel photos from my laptop catalog back into my desktop catalog, when I return home from a trip.

When I try to import pictures from another catalog, I cannot access my RAW pictures. I can only seem them as non supported what do I do to import?

When I try to import pictures from another catalog, I cannot access my RAW pictures. I can only seem them as non supported what do I do to import?

Sorry for the long delay. I have Windows 8.1 and using Lightroom 5.7 I have organized my unedited RAW format photos in files on my hard drive in folders in My documents/pictures. Once I edit them I move them to another folders on a separate drive and discard the rejects.
When trying to access my documents by selecting .File - Import from another catalog- my documents/ pictures; I see the folders, however when I select it, it says No items to match your search When using the drop down menu on the lower right I can only see the images if I click on "all files" and when I click on the image I want to import, it says "Lightroom cannot import this catalog; "The catalog does not appear to be a valid Lightroom catalog"
All of this happend when I loaded a Cannon Pro 100 printer plug-in. I tried to disable the plugin, but It is still happining and cannot access the images.

Lightroom 5 (64-bit) Import from Another Catalog... will not complete.

Ok, here is the situation. I have a LR4.4 cataloge that contains thousands of edits and all my publish services. File size is 1.2Gb. I used the LR5 beta and would like to import the edits from that catalog as well as the edits and services from the LR4 catalog.
Here is what I have tried. Open the LR4 catalog in LR5, tell it to upgrade the catalog for use with LR5. This step works without any issues and the edits and services are present. Now I tell LR5 to import from another catalog and select the LR5 beta catalog. LR begins processing but will never complete. Once it gets to checking for changes in duplicates it seems to hang. Checking the Windows Task Manager reveals that LR5 is still processing, but I have let it sit for over a day and it will not complete the process. I have also optimized both catalogs before attempting the import again, but that seemed to have no effect.
The system should have plenty of processing power being that it is an overclocked 6 core Phenom II running at 4.25GHz with 16GB of RAM, but it seems to just never finish.
Ideas?

If that doesn't work I don't know what to suggest.
If that doesn't work, Dax_Morgan can use WreckHover to recover develop settings from the troublesome catalog. Note: it won't get any other metadata nor collections etc., and if Dax already has fresh xmp, that might be a preferred option. But, just so ya know...

Importing from another catalog hangs up at "Checking for changed duplicate photos" in LR 4.3

Importing from another catalog hangs up at "Checking for changed duplicate photos" in LR 4.3.
I went on a vacation so exported a subset of my main LR catalog on my PC so I could do some work on my laptop. I added some new photos and also editied some olde ones.
Now that I am back home, when I ty to Import from the smaller catalog into my Main Catalog on my PC, the Import from catalog process gets immediately stuck on the step "Checking for changed duplicate photos.'
How can I work around this?
Is this a new bug in 4.3?
Thanks.
John

Yes, the catalogs were optimized, but...the master catalog on my desktop is
HUGE. I mean...really, really, HUGE.
So, that probably explains the very long time it took?
But...I was confused at first, and really did think that LR was 'stuck'
while importing from the smaller catalog and "Checking for changed duplicate
photos".
Next time, I'll just be more patient.
And...in the end, everything went as it should, and I now have all my edits
and new photos incorporated into my HUGE catalog on my desktop.

Category is indexed in another catalog even if doesn't exist in it. Ideas?
