Color labels problem, in french version

In english :
Hello
I was testing with the beta and lightroom beta 2 version 3. Satisfied, I bought french version 3 today. Unfortunately I have a small problem:
color labels have not been recognized during the transition to the french commercial version 3. The reason seems to be related to a translation problem. Example: color purple ("pourpre" in french) appears not with the same color, but with the text, instead of the icon, "purpule". Same for the other colors.
How to get my color labels?
Thank you.
In french :
Bonjour,
je testais lightroom avec la beta et beta 2 de la version 3. Satisfait, j'ai acheté la version 3 française ce jour. Malheureusement j'ai un petit problème :
les libellés de couleurs n'ont pas été reconnus lors du passage à la version 3 commerciale française. La raison semble être liée à un problème de traduction. Exemple : la couleur pourpre apparait non pas avec la couleur correspondante, mais avec le texte, en lieu et place de l'icône, "purpule". Même chose pour les autres couleurs.
Comment récupérer mes libellés de couleurs ?
Merci.

Snoopy,
I think your assumption is correct, your problem is due to the different wordings in the labels (I presume you were running LR3 Beta2 in English).
LR did wirte the word "Purple" into the label column of your catalog, when you marked an image as purple. Now, with the french wording, LR interprets the word "Pourpre" in the label column as purple, and nothing else. You can see these associations in the Library Module, Metadata menu / Color label set / Edit.
To solve your problem, I would do the following for each of the color labels:
Activate the Metadata Filter, with the column "label" showing
filter on a specific label term (e.g. "Purple")
Select all filtered photos
Mark them as "Pourpre"
This will reassign the current (French) terms to your photos.

Aperture 3.1 color label problem

After the recent 3.1 "upgrade" I notice the following: 1. Keyboard shortcuts for color labels no longer work. 2. Filtering images by color label no longer works.

They still work for me.
I had some trouble understanding the filter choices in the Color Label Rule. Fwiw, it is hard to tell which colors are selected (often more than it seems), and it isn't immediately clear that this rule has multiple selections with a fixed "or" operator.
Regarding the keyboard shortcuts -- have you altered your command set in any way? When happens when you press "{command}+1" (do any of the menu items in the menu bar show in reverse-video)?

Automator: Apply Color Label and Copy to Folder

I'm trying my hand at Automator, and I need help with one of my workflows (⇪). Basically, it's a service (accessible via right-click) that will apply a color label on an image file, and then copy that image file to a corresponding folder with the same color label. My current version works fine, except for the fact that I had to create seven versions to accommodate all seven colors.
Is there any way to turn the color into a variable? I want the workflow to prompt me for a color, and then use that choice to run a search for the appropriate folder. I'd rather not hard code the color choice into separate services that all do the same thing.
Also, the service currently assumes that it will run fast enough before I can deselect the target file. I'm sure it's possible that the folder search could lag out while I select another file, and the service will ultimately copy the newly selected item, rather than the initial target. Is there a way to ensure the service acts on whatever was selected when it was first triggered?
I don't know AppleScript beyond copying-and-pasting other people's codes, so that limits my automation quite a bit. I don't know how to prompt for a label index choice and then feed the result into a find function. I also don't know how to record the file path of the selected item, and then feed that into the copy function at the end to ensure it doesn't copy the wrong file.

Typically a list of items is passed to a workflow, so you will usually (depending on what you are doing with the items) need to step through the items in that list. If there is only one destination folder with the target label, you can just search for it, otherwise you will need to specify the destination in some other way.
The following Service workflow example assumes that there is only one destination folder that has a given label color. It gets the label index of one of the input items and finds a folder with the same index at a specified base location (to limit the search range).
1) Input items are automatically passed to an application or service, otherwise another action to get FInder Items can be used
2) *Label Finder Items* (show the action when the workflow runs)
3) *Run AppleScript* (paste the following script)
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
font-weight: normal;
margin: 0px;

This action is designed to follow a "Label Finder Items" action. It will get the
first folder of the base folder that has the same label and copy the input items
to that folder.

get folders of (entire contents of baseFolder) whose label index is theLabel -- include subfolders

if the result is not {} then
set theDestination to the first item of the result

end if
end tell

set the end of skippedItems to (anItem as text) & errorNumber
end try
end repeat
showSkippedAlert for skippedItems
return the output -- pass the result(s) to the next action
end run
to showSkippedAlert for skippedItems

Lightroom 5.7. How to create custom color labels.

I would like to create custom color labels. I have created names for five colors, but the "custom" color (white) does not appear to be customisable
Any ideas? Ideally I would like two more color labels.

There are two versions of LR, a cloud-licensed version and a serial-number-licensed version.
It sounds like you’ve installed the cloud one which Adobe makes very easy to do, hoping you’ll signup for the cloud.
Assuming you have a serial-number from your purchase, you should uninstall the cloud-licensed LR trial, and then install the serial-number-licensed version from the Adobe Updates page and input the serial number:

Problems importing photos with a color label.

Hello:
I'm trying to import photos and assign a color label at the same time. My idea is to know what pics are just imported and put they into "status 0" of my workflow, that is, the pic is just imported and need to be accepted/rejected, then be classified, then made basic corrections, etc, etc. I'm going to change color labels to go from red to green status... a tipical workflow.
OK, this is what I did:
Import pics:
* I select the directory and create/assign a new metadata preset.
* In this metadata preset I set author/creator and some other IPTC fields.
* Also I put the word "red" in Label field.
* Do the import...
What I can see then:
The photos are imported and the red label is visible. You can see the red label in the grid view (at every photo's bottom) and also, at the bottom toolbar, you can see that the red label is checked. If you click at the small label at the photo's bottom you can see the small menu with the red label checked.
OK, it seems that the color label is imported but...
In the filmstring, if you filter to see only the red labeled pics... nothing is selected !! You have to unassign and assign again the red label and this time you can filter by color label.
What is happening ? Does Lightroom read the color label from two different fields from the metadata ? Is something not synched during the import process ?
Regards,
Javier.

Sorry if I couldn't explain correctly. English is not my main language...
I know you can assign names to the existing colors label and create different sets. I just create my own set.
What I'm refering to is to the Label field that is part of the basic IPTC data into a metadata preset. I'm not sure if it's the same field that is used to assign color labels.
What I did was to create a metadata preset, assign the word "red" as the value of the IPTC Label field and then apply this preset into an import. All the pics were imported with the red label set, so yes, it is possible to do the import and set the color label. The problem is that you can't use the filters that are into the filmstring view. So there is some mismatch here: the red color is shown at the bottom of the pics imported, but the filmstring filters can't "see" that the pics have this color label assigned.

Color label setting problems in Develop module

Today is the first day with Lightroom 3, where I have over 200 photos from an event, that I am walking through each photo. I am in the develop module and I am setting the color label to red or blue. What seems to be constantly (not every time) happening is when I click the color for the label, LR will move to the next photo, but not apply the color label.
As I write this I'm trying it out to notice a pattern. What I see is photo 1, I click on the red label and the photo is labeled red and LR moves to photo 2. I click on the red label and LR does not set any color label and moves to photo 3.
Another thing that happened is I was then at photo 3 and clicked on the blue label. LR did not set the blue label but jumped to photo 4 and put the blue label on that photo.
This is very annoying.
Where might I report this bug to Adobe?

Same bug as with ratings. http://forums.adobe.com/thread/679696?tstart=0
Flagging via the toolbar, also shows this problem.
As noted above, use keyboard shortcuts.

Lightroom color labels lost on transition from one pc to another

I started using a mac laptop in the field and always used windows pc at home. A portable hard drive holds the lightroom catalog. It's fat32 formatted so it can be used by both mac and windows.
A catalog made by the mac lightroom opens fine in windows. However, all the color labels are lost. The flags and stars are retained.
If a color label is changed on a photo by the windows version of lightroom, then when that catalog is opened on the mac, that photo has no color label. (even though the mac originally gave it a color label)
And all the original color labels that were made by the mac magically return as they were assigned.
To trouble shoot this, I installed the Lightroom 3.6 trial on 2 other pcs - one runs windows 7 32 bit and the other windows 7 64 bit. These installs see the mac created catalog properly.
All the color labels are there and changing one on a windows box is properly reflected on the mac when that catalog is opened.
This is so annoying.
My main pc must have an allergy to my mac.
I removed and reinstalled lightroom on my pc-same problem.
Now i have to figure out what is interfering with my main pc lightroom install.
It cant be lightroom cause i removed it and reinstalled it. but it might be one of the plug ins i use. these magically reappearred even after i reinstalled lightroom after removing it.
Anyone have suggestions?

The color labels are preserved between different programs (for instance between Bridge and Lightroom) and I imagine between different LRs on two different computers only when the texts entered as description for the color labels in >Metadata >Color Label Set >Edit is absolutely identical on both computers down to upper / lower case, spaces, numbers, hyphens, etc. If one dexcription for - lets say the red label - deviates from the other by only a semicolon the label will not display properly.

Missing color labels after migrating to new machine

Hi everybody,
I migrated my Lightroom 1.3 yesterday from my old XP notebook to my new Vista notebook by copying my photo folder (including the Lightroom catalog) and installing the same Lightroom version on the new computer. The only difference is that the photo folder is now at c: while before it was at d:.
When opening Lightroom and the catalog on the new computer on the first glance everything looked fine but then I noticed that all the color labels were gone. Other kind of picture-specific modifications (e. g. development settings) are still there, only the color labels are not (I don't use any other labels, so I am not sure if they would have been affected as well).
Does anybody have a clue where the labels have gone and how I can get them back? :-)
Thanks and regards, Robert

Hi Jim,
Thanks for the tip, it seems that an inconsistency here was the problem.
On my old machine I previously used LR in German but when updating to 1.3 I got the English version. So it seems that during upgrading the color labels have stayed in German but when I then installed the English 1.3 on my new notebook it of course installed the labels in English. After changing the names to German I can see the labels again.
Regards, Robert

Bug in Aperture's Color labels?

When I select an image and use the main menu to change the color label to nothing, viewing in the list view shows the label as "--" (without the quotes). When I use the sidebar to perform the same operation, the list view shows the label to be "No Label" (with the quotes). This seems inconsistent. Is this a bug?

Yes, its been around since at least version 3. While it doesn't cause a lot of problems in Aperture itself if you try to use Applescript to script the labels it causes all sorts of problems.
I reported it numerous times, keep hoping that one day it will be fixed. You can send feedback to Apple reporting this, see Aperture->Provide Aperture Feedback

Random Window Closing When Using Color Labels

Any help appreciated.
When using color labels, every 2nd or 3rd time I set a color, the finder window I'm working in closes by itself. When I reopen a new window, it puts you back at the top level, and I have to re-drill down to where I was. This happens whether or not any apps are open.
Using OS 10.4.8, pretty sure it's the latest version. I have almost no software on this machine - it's a dedicated music computer. I use labels extensively, and this never happened on my old G5 or Powerbook (both with 10.4.8). So far I'm attributing it to the Mac Pro.
Mac Pro/2x2.66 Dual-Core Mac OS X (10.4.8) 4GB RAM
Mac Pro/2x2.66 Dual-Core Mac OS X (10.4.8) 4GB RAM

Create a new account, name it "test" and see how color labels work in that User acct? (That will tell if your problem is systemwide or limited to your User acct.) This account is just for test, do nothing further with it.
Open System Preferences >> Accounts >> "+" make it an admin account.
Let us know and we'll troubleshoot this further.

Close all folders in Mail? Color Label folders? Find folder? And More!

Hi all.
I have a LOT of mail. They're all very organized, though. Heaps of Mailboxes (Folders) and Sub-folders.
I also have heaps of rules dutifully sending incoming mail to their appropriate mailboxes.
However...
It has reached a point where one of of the major bottlenecks in my daily workflow is sorting through all these mailboxes.
There are 5 primary mailboxes with perhaps 100-ish subfolders or sub-subfolders. Maybe more.
When they are all open, or a lot of them are open, it is difficult to find the a specific folder when I need it. It would help if I could close all open folder with a shortcut.
Is this possible?
It would also help if I could visually distinguish each level. Can I color label the mailboxes(not the messages themselves)?
Another help would be if I could run a search for a folder Mailbox name. Is this possible?
Lastly when I create a rule I would love it if there was an option to 'Create new Mailbox' in the rule dialog box rather than having to create the mailbox first. Am I just missing this? See link for illustration:
http://img.skitch.com/20080820-eaqmy89emw6xm5pcj86iuqu992.jpg

I just had a look and you need to create the mailbox PRIOR to asking the rules to move it into that.
Now, automator lets you create a new workflow, but not sure as to how to set that one up (might be possible; however, my mathematical brain tells what you want to achieve is flawed:
1) IF new mail equals "tangerine", create new mailbox tangerine, then move message to mailbox "tangerine. (FINE so far!)
2) the second "tangerine" message arrives, and the workflow should FAIL (because it cannot create a "new" mailbox "tangerine", as there is ALREADY a mailbox named "tangerine")
3) if automator cannot execute "If" and "and" and the "sort by" all together, then distinguish (a "tangerine" message might actually need to go to "pear" but refers to "pears and tangerines", so it ends up in the wrong mailbox), you may have to start and restart mail, until all stages of the script have been executed.
You see the problems?
Anyhow, here is a link to some automator info:

Can not color label more than one file at a time

Hi,
I've had this problem since 10.6.6-ish, i can not color label more than one file at a time in the Finder.
Wether i select two, twenty or twohundred only one file gets color labeled.
It doesn't seem to matter if i assign a color label through the File menu or right click > label.
Figured a re-install might fix this but it hasn't (even a clean install without restoring any kind of backup).
Does anyone else have this issue and/or a fix for it?
Thanks,
Jay

Aaaaanyone ?

I moved to Europe and now my iPod nano isn't recognized by French version of iTunes

I have a laptop with Window 7.
Since in France, in order to buy music on iTunes I had to download its French version, letting me keep the music already there. But now I don't seem to be able to synchronize and/or update my iPods (I have one first generation and one touch 6 th generation).
I must say that, before I left the U.S., I downloaded music on the iPods from another computer - my main desk computer (and account with iTunes). So, would it be a problem because the libraries are different in each computer or because the account is now in a different country?
I am lost... Some help would be really appreciated.
Thanks.

Have you carefully worked through each and every single suggestion in this Apple support document?

Kernel Label problem for SOL MAN 4.0

Hi
When was installing a Unicode SolMan 4.0 on Win 2003 SQL server 2005.
I have downloaded a following CD for Kernel -
51031778_11 NW 2004s SR1 UC-Kernel 7.00 Windows Server on IA32 32bit
When I give the LABEL.ASC for kernel, it does not accept it and give me following error -
You entered: E:/nw04s/kernel/DVD_NW_2004s_SR1_Kernel_Windows__LNX_X86/LABEL.ASC
Found the label SAP:AKK:700:DVD_KERNEL:SAP Kernel 700:D51031778 but need label
SAP:AKK:700:KERNEL:.WINDOWS_I386:
I tried all these option from the below link, but it did not work
Kernel Label problem...
Does any one have solution for that?
I appreciate your help

Hi udo lang,
I have downloaded the Kernel file 51031778_3 NW 2004s SR1 Kernel 7.00 Windows Server on IA32 32bit today. I will try to fix the problem by using this kernel.
I also got reply from Sap that solution for this issue is:
This is most unusual. Due to the currently running RampUp the
DVD's could have been updated.
I suggest that you try the following,
Download both the Unicode and NonUnicode Kernel files from the
SAP Service Market Place.
The Kernel DVD 51031778 contains the Kernel for Unicode and for Non-
Unicode, as you wrote, in directory "", label:
"SAP:AKK:700:KERNEL::WINDOWS_X86_64:"
Please check if you start Unicode Installation. Due to an incorrect
procedure sapinst requireds both Kernel-CD.
With the next release will be it correct. If you start a Unicode
installation it will be a unicode.
51031792_5 NW 2004s SR1 UC-Kernel 7.00 AIX 64bit
51031792_1 NW 2004s SR1 Kernel 7.00 AIX 64bit
Etract them to one directory, like:
<downloadDIR>/
kernel/
KN_WINDOWS_I386/
KU_WINDOWS_I386/
CDLABEL.ASC
LABEL.ASC
LABELIDX.ASC
When you ware asked for the kernel DVD, please enter
<downloadDIR>/kernel
SAPinst should take the right kernel version for the installation
automatically.
You may additionally refer to the below note for reference.
921593 Inst. SAP NetWeaver 2004s SR1 on UNIX
If the problem is resolved i will let you know. Thanks for your assistance
