Changing white balance for multiple photos

Hello All, and Happy Holidays...
During the holidays I was taking photos at a family gathering, about 125 or so, under tungsten light. I forgot about setting the white balance on the camera to tungsten until half-way through the evening. Is there a way to easily change the colour cast for the initial photos? I'm hoping that there is a "retro" white balance setting since all these images will need the same colour shift. I am using an old old version of photoshop that doesn't have a batch function, though I am waiting for the CS3 - but that could take awhile since its coming through the school.
Thanks in advance!!

SethB:
You can try changing the temperature setting in the Adjust pane of iPhoto to what suits you best. Then click on the copy button (in the Adjust pane) , go to the next photo via the arrow buttons and click on the paste button. That will let you go thru the photos fairly fast applying the same correction to each.
Happy New Year
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Adjust white balance for multiple images at once?

Is this possible to adjust the white balance for multiple images at the same time?
Or adjust the exposure for that matter?

Of course, this is similar to the question you asked in this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=3964192#3964192
except use White Balance instead of Exposure. For others who might be wondering the same thing:
1) Set the White Balance for one image.
2) Select all of the images you want to copy the White Balance to.
3) Type "O" to initiate the Lift & Stamp HUD
4) Click on the image with the White Balance you want to copy with the with the L&S up arrow.
5) In the L&S HUD uncheck all the checkboxes except Adjustments.
6) Click on the disclosure triangle to the left of Adjustments. If there are other adjustment settings besides White Balance listed, select them and delete them with the delete key.
7) Once all you have is Adjustments White Balance in the L&S HUD, then click the "Stamp Selected Images" button in the L&S HUD.

F.01 - Trial balance for multiple company codes

Hello SAP gurus,
I am trying to use transaction F.01 to generate trial balance for multiple company codes. My ideal output is as follow:
Company Code     GL account     Amount
AAAA                  10000             200,000
AAAA                  10001             100,000
BBBB                  10000             500,000
BBBB                  10001             300,000
However, when I tried to run the report in ALV format, the report aggregate the total by GL accounts which is not what I want (see below).
Company Code     GL account     Amount
'****                      10000             700,000
'****                      10001             400,000
Do you know if it is possible to generate a trial balance broken down by company code and GL accounts in ALV format? If yes, how do I do that?
Thanks,
Cassandra Wong

In the initial screen of F.01, if you select radio button 'ALV grid control' and select the layout as '1SAP' and execute, you will see the button Expand (Ctrl+F2) in the report - it is adjacent to the blue information button - you will see a + sign and the words 'Company Code' on that button. Even if you are not able to locate the button, just press CtrlF2 on your keyboard, the list will expand. You may not have company code in the layout - you can change it using the 'Change Layout (CtrlF8)' button and then by bringing 'Company Code' field from the Hidden Columns on the right to the Displayed Columns on the left.

White balance for infrared images

Hello there,
I love making infrared photos with my digital camera (Canon dSRL).
When I take an IR shot, I usually set the custom white balance inside the camera, so that false colours appear correctly. If I open the CR2 RAW file using the software provided by Canon (Digital Photo Professional) the image appears correctly; on the contrary, if I use Adobe Camera Raw (which I prefer to) it seems that my custom white balance is not properly displayed.
So I'm wondering if this is an issue of CR or there is something to do that I don't know. Can you help me?

This tutorial by Sean MacCormick shows how you can edit the camera profile so that White Balance for IR images is brought within the adjustment range that Camera Raw and Lightroom http://lightroom-blog.com/2009/05/creating-ir-camera-profile.html

Elements 11 organizer shows correct wb in thumbnails but when increased to full screen or in slide show changes white balance to tungsten

Elements 11 organizer shows correct white balance in thumbnails but when increased to full screen or in slide show changes white balance to tungsten. Photos where shot in raw and in auto or flash white balance. any suggestions out there?

Figured it out, if the raw default setting has the wb on 3000 (or tungsten) the slide show uses adobe raw to convert so they all showed blue LOL

Apply White Balance To Multiple Images

Now that I'm shooting RAW all the time, I'm really, REALLY getting tired of having to manually change the white balance for every single image. As many of you probably know, you can select any number of images in Abode RAW, and then use your WB source image to mass-apply the white balance to said images. Further, you can select images and then contextual-menu to apply changes.
For the life of me, I cannot see how to do this in Aperture. I've tried everything I know to do, but I still have to manually activate individual images and then set the WB. If I could mass-apply a preset to a group of pics, that'd be passable -- but I don't see how to do that, either.
Thoughts? Advice? Solutions?
Thanks,
Maury

Hello! One way to do it is to first make sure that Primary Only is off. Then make the white balance correction to an image. Then use the Lift tool to lift the white balance off it. A dialog box will open showing you what is being lifted. Now you can shift-select a beginning image and an ending image. The shift-select will apply the Stamp to everything in between.

Develop: copy after to before for multiple photos?

Is there a way to copy after settings to the before settings (that of each photo) for multiple photos?
I find that I forget to do that after editing a photo. Then saving edits back to the file (cmd-S) flushes the before settings. I've been visiting every single photo to copy the 'after' settings to the 'before' settings.
Thanks.

Hi All -- I'm going to ask this question again as the issue continues to vex me.
I'm now using LR 2.2. The changes flushed to a image file (I use DNG) reflect the current 'before settings' in the develop module. In order to get recent develop module changes into the image file, one has to first execute "Copy After's Settings to Before", then save the image settings (cmd-S). That seems totally reasonable.
Here's my problem. I visit lots of images making edits. I don't always remember to "Copy After's Settings to Before" after making edits. In order to determine which image's I've made changes to I step through all my images in the develop module using the before/after view, executing "Copy After's Settings to Before". This is a big hassle. I need a better approach. First I don't always know which images I've edited and I usually don't care anyway. What I want is a macro that will perform "Copy After's Settings to Before" for multiple images. Is there such a feature or is this missing from LR?

How to change "capture time" of multiple photos to a specific time?

Hi guys,
For some reason I'm trying to change "capture time" of multiple photos to a specific time.
I know that there is "Edit Capture Time" feature under Metadata.
But when I try to edit multiple photos, it says that "Modify the capture time stored in the selected photos by entering the correct time adjustment for the photo displayed to the left. Other photos (but not vidieos) will be adjusted by the same amount of time". And it really does.
For example,
If A file's capture time is 1/11/2011
B file's capture time is 1/11/2012
C file's capture time is 1/11/2013
I would like to change their capture time to 1/11/2014. All the three files.
But the current "Edit Capture Time" feature of Lightroom just adds three years to each file like this:
A file's capture time -> 1/11/2014
B file -> 1/11/2015
C file -> 1/11/2016
So their capture times remain as different ones. And this is not I want...
What should I do?
I've googled a lot and tried several programs other than lightroom as well, but the "Capture time" recognized by lightroom could not be changed by other programs.
I would greatly appreciate your help.

Sorry - I didn't see where you'd mentioned that you'd chosen the correct option, so I thought best to rule that out first.
Anyway, it sounds like a bug, which can be reported here:
http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/products/photoshop_family_photoshop_lightro om
In the mean time, you can use exiftool, or try your luck with the exif-write function of the exif-meta plugin, e.g.:
Note: if you use exiftool, you need to save metadata first, make the change, then read metadata in Lightroom, otherwise capture-time changes will be ignored by Lr.

Problem in getting opening balance for multiple GL Account

Hi,
I am working on a Trail Balance Report in which i am trying to fetch the data for the opening balance for multiple GL Accounts but it is not coming accurate.. Here is the link to the code which i am using currently right now:-
http://docs.google.com/View?id=dfxswwff_13fgpdcbgt
here i am showing the logic for the data of previous year only... i.e. data from begining to 1 day less of the date-low.

Hi,
It is a tranparent table which is getting data from the 2 other tables,the filling of this table is right. The execution of this query is right in the program but the problem comes when it is trying to calculate the opening balance for the respective GL Account present in the query it is not doing it. i.e. if there are 2 gl account ids having 3 rows of data each it is not calculating the of it in a single row.. i hope it is clear now...

Can't change sort settings for multiple items in iTunes 7.1

iTunes 7.1 introduces a great feature—the ability to set a separate Sort Name, Sort Artist, Sort Album, etc. This means that "Weird Al" Yankovic songs can finally appear down among the Y's instead of up at the top of every list, by changing the Sort Artist to Yankovic, Weird Al.
Unfortunately, this feature is fatally crippled in 7.1. As far as I can tell, you can only change the Sorting information on individual tracks. When you change the information for multiple tracks, the Sorting tab doesn't show up. This renders the feature all but useless.
Let's say (hypothetically) that your friend is an enormous nerd (in theory) and your friend has 139 "Weird Al" Yankovic tracks (for the purposes of this example only, of course). Instead of just selecting all these tracks at once and changing the Sort Artist to Yankovic, "Weird Al", I (I mean, he) has to retype this information for each individual track. That's crazy! Surely this must be a bug.
Core 2 Duo 20" iMac Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I just found the solution to this myself.
In a very un-Apple way, this is an undocumented feature only accessible by right- (or control-) clicking.
1. Change one track to your desired sort settings (for instance, set the Sort Artist to Yankovic, Weird Al.
2. Right-click on that track. In the contextual menu that appears, there is a new submenu called "Apply Sort Field." If you choose "Same Artist," it will apply your new sorting information to all your other tracks by "Weird Al" Yankovic (or, if you are not a huge nerd, any other artist you substitute).

How do I change the length of multiple photo's after I've added them?

How do I change the length of multiple photo's after I've added them?

Hey,
The best way to do this is to select all the clips by holding down the shift key or command key if the clips you want to change are not all right next to each other and then selecting each clip that you want to change. Then double-click on the clips which will open up the inspector tab and then you can change the duration. If you want to just change all clips to the same duration just double-click on one of the photos and in the inspector tab next to the durationt tab you will see a box that says "add duration to all clips". If you click that, when you change the duration all the photos will change to that duration. That will then change the duration of all the clips at the same time.

Changing metadata for multiple photos at one time

Hi,
Is there a way to change the metadata (ie information) of multiple photos at a single time.
For example, I have a ton of pictures from a vacation. I would like to be able to select all of those photos and add the name of the vacation to all of them.
Thanks,
BT

1) Select all the photos you would like to modify
2) Select Photos->Batch Change
3) Set the drop-down to 'Comments'
Have at it!

Batch processing of white balance with RAW photo's in v.5

Hi,
I have the plugin for RAW to use with Photoshop Elements 5.0 but there doesn't seem to be a way to correct a whole group of photos in raw for white balance or some other correction in a batch. Maybe I'm missing something or maybe this can't be done in Elements.

Elements doesn't have the ability to Batch Process RAW files like you want.
You could make a Batch Conversion to JPEGS, PSD or TIF but each image gets the same default adjustments. I think you could save a new default with your adjustments and then this would get applied in the process. You'd need to remember to go back the Camera Defaults afterwards.
The only other thing available is the Previous Conversion feature but this still means processing the images one by one.

Allow SET button on 6D to change White Balance Preset

On the EOS 6D right now, there is no fast/easy way to change/set the White Balance. Even my old 30D camera has a WB button where you press it, then rotate the main dial to change the WB presets.
On the 6D right now, you can customize the SET button to change IMAGE QUALITY, PICTURE STYLE, MENU, ISO (hold the set button and rotate the main dial), FLASH COMPENSATION.
I wish Canon could include White Balance as one of the options. There are already a button for ISO and MENU, yet they're included in the option. I bet everyone who is using the 6D miss the WB button. That's the first one I notice when using the 6D.
Just my wishful thinking, but I doubt that anyone from Canon will read this one.

Hi,
The missing WB button is something we noticed right after the announcement and we also don't understand why Canon removed it, since it so important for Photography and Video.
Your request is completely logical and fair, and can be implemented via Firmware.
- I suggest you to contact Canon and let them know your request, all EOS 6D users should do the same indeed.:

--- •• WORKING WHITE BALANCE FOR YELLOW TINT Z1 ••

Hello Guys,
I'm here to bring some HOPE for those users who won, I mean who got Z1 from the lottery yellow tint issue. I am an XDA user since then and I found a thread saying that the Japanese version of Xperia Z1 SO-01F got white balance settings yesterday and the OP ported it to our Z1 C69xx !
I installed it and CONFIRMED ITS WORKING. Results are farm different from Screen Adjuster app from playstore and such where blue is really noticeably. Navigation bar also changes using this. Although I'm wondering why it has different sliders compared to those on Xperia Z (Hue and Saturation), it will give you a peace of mind that the nightmare has ended.
Here are some screenies:
You need to be ROOTED to have this, no other way. It's flashable through CWM but if you are just ROOTED and doesn't have CWM installed, you can just push the files to the folders and change permissions. (tell me if you need help on this one)
Here's the original thread with the download link from XDA :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2572080
If you're an XDA member, don't forget to hit THANKS to him. Don't forget to give Kudos and / or mark the correct answer
It would be much better still if Sony will provide an official solution for this headache issue.
Reply with results you got or problems you encountered installing, Ill help. That's all. Enjoy.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Yes, we will add a setting for white balance in an upcoming version of the phones software planned for the beginning of next year (see my response here: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z1/Xperia-Z1-C6903-Display-Issue-Yellow-Hue-Tint/td-p/391521/pa...).
I don't have any Japanese unit so i can't confirm if it has been added there already and what it looks like though.
