Consolidation bug

Hi,
I am facing one problem. I have BalanceSheet dimension (Account type) with a hierarchy. One inside hierarchy is --> Parent is DynamicCalc and has only one member below which is StoreData (this is level0 member). When in planning and want to input data to this member Hyperion states that data saved but data that I have input disappear. Even the parent that is DynamicCalc is not doing the aggregation. So when I input e.g. 50 and click save data disappears.
The problem is gone when i have more than one member below the dynamicCalc parent.
Is somebody aware of this???
Please Help It seems like a bug to me but i think hyperion should handle this.

Hi,
This is a standard functionality. Here is an extract from the DBAG:
Understanding Implied Sharing
The shared member property defines a shared data relationship explicitly. Some members are
shared even if you do not explicitly set them as shared. These members are said to be implied
shared members.
Essbase assumes (or implies) a shared member relationship in the following situations:
● A parent has only one child. In this situation, the parent and the child contain the same
data. Essbase ignores the consolidation property on the child and stores the data only once
—thus the parent has an implied shared relationship with the child. In the following
example, the parent 500 has only one child, 500-10, so the parent shares the value of that
child.
500 (+)
500-10 (+)
● A parent has only one child that consolidates to the parent. If the parent has four children,
but three of them are marked as no consolidation, the parent and child that consolidates
142 Setting Dimension and Member Properties
contain the same data. Essbase ignores the consolidation property on the child and stores
the data only once—thus the parent has an implied shared relationship with the child. In
the following example, the parent 500 has only one child, 500-10, that rolls up to it. The
other children are marked as No Consolidate(~), so the parent implicitly shares the value
of 500-10.
500 (+)
500-10 (+)
500-20 (~)
500-30 (~)
If you do not want a member to be shared implicitly, mark the parent as Never Share so that the
data is duplicated, and is not shared. See “Understanding Shared Members” on page 139 for an
explanation of how shared members work.
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Amol

    I'll take a stab at cleaning this up. This is a collection of postings, reported as bugs, but not really bugs or difficult to understand/reproduce. These were filed in the Database General forum and they should have been filed in the XE forum.
    Firstly, thank you for taking the time to report these issues and suspected issues. In the future, it would be quite helpful to everyone if you reported these in the XE forum.
    1. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Bugs
    This is not a bug. The developer toolbar will show when you are authenticated to the development environment. You do not have to be authenticated to your application for the developer toolbar to appear.
    2. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Bugs
    If data is present in the cache, this is up to the application developer (you) to implement the proper security which prevents this behavior.
    3. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition  Bugs
    This is a minor issue, at best. For this type of search interface, it is desirable to perform a case-insensitive query. Wouldn't it be a shame if you searched for "item" and it did not return results that contained "Item".
    4. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Bugs
    This is not a bug. Different authentication schemes have different data restrictions. It is up to you, the application developer, to easily implement the data validations appropriate for your application.
    5. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Bugs
    Insufficient information provided. You will have to specify what exact error message is arising and what data you changed which resulted in this error. A complete step-by-step test case is desirable, please.
    6. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Bugs
    Duplicate of #5 above. And still insufficient information.
    7. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Bugs
    Not a bug. This is intentional behavior. If I know I want to enter table name EMP, it would be bad from a usability standpoint to always force the user to employ their mouse.
    8. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Bugs
    This could not be reproduced.
    9. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Bugs
    Almost identical to #8. Please clarify what the expected behavior should be.

  • Consolidating DSOs

    Hi Guys,
    I need to merge two DSOs A&B in to third DSO C. I have same key fields in each of this DSO.When I create two transformations , Iam unable to see the consolidated data. In change log of DSO C , its showing both DSOs A & B Data one after other. Like if my DSO A has 200 records and B has 300 records C is showing 500 records. If the DSO A and DSO B has the same company code , Doc Nr and Fiscal Year it should match in C and should display it as one single record ...What to do for this in BI. I worked this same kind in BI 3.5 with update rules overwrite option. But here in 7.0 what to do can any one advice?
    Thanks a lot in advance

    Well, actually you created a outline view.
    Open a new blank document, click View->Outline->Show Document->Insert, insert a document including pictures, and then click
    unlink, Close Outline View->save this document. Reopen it, pictures are still here. Did I miss something?
    If you mean you can't see pictures in outline view, you can refer to the thread below :

  • Bugs in HFM 11.1.2.2.300 ?

    Dear experts,
    I want to know if my issue below is caused by bug in HFM v11.1.2.2.300:
    FYI, I'm using EPMA and my HFM is shared with Dimension Library
    1. After running a consolidation, my elimination journal is created as I wanted. Clicking on Manage Journal brings me to the list of journal (above) and below is journal detail. But when i want to move to one journal and another, i got warning on the screen "The journal you are trying to load has been deleted and cannot be processed. Please refresh the journal list". I didn't intend to delete or do anything to the journal, only wants to view it. So, when I lower down the viewing screen, i'm able to select the journal list without any prompt message and i pull up again the journal view and voila!! the screen displaying my other journal. This is not happening when i'm viewing a normal journal (as in <entity cur adjs> level)
    2. In my server, I have STAT application restored, also have my own application. STAT app, has many aliases: English, French, German, etc, while my apps has alias English, AliasTemp1, AliasTemp2. When I go to workspace, trying to change alias from preferences menu, I notice that STAT app is on the first list. So I click on dropdown and change the app, i select my own app. But the language dropdown doesn't change, means, it still point to STAT app.
    3. I want to change my consolidation method's name from dimension library. I changed it from CostConsol to CostMethod. Since my apps is a shared one, i check that in my app, the name has been changed (from view application). After validating and deploy, I open Ownership Management to check the name. The name hasn't change yet, still using the old one. How to change the consol method name ?
    4. In consolidation rules file, you always has syntax call MyDataUnit.GetItem(i, strAccount, strICP, strCustom1, strCustom2, strCustom3, strCustom4, dData). I have more than 4 custom dimension (i have 6). I want to include all 6 into this syntax, but my consolidation is aborted. Does this syntax only limit to custom4 dimension ?
    5. I want to retrieve POWN and Parent value by using HS.Parent.Member and HS.Node.POWN(""). According to admin guide, both syntax can be run in Calculation Subroutine(). But i tried, it doesn't work.
    6. In Sub Equity Pick up, I can't execute HS.EXP command. It always generates an error.
    Please help if anyone knows/aware that this is happening in HFM v11.1.2.2.300 or maybe i did something wrong with the code.
    Thanks,
    Anna

    You'll want to use the Alias for this.

  • Highly frustrated with Outlook 2013 Search People box bugs - Multiple Name Results for Same Contact & Inconsistent Results

    The Outlook 2013 "Search People" box does not function properly. It frequently displays incorrect results or a mess of duplicate results. I've reported previous issues about this and consolidating my posts into one (with screenshots this
    time). Hopefully this message will be forwarded to or seen by the Outlook programmers. It really needs to be fixed.
    Outlook 2010 and other prior versions worked perfectly. You search for name, you get ONE result with the info you're looking for. FAST AND EASY. But with Outlook 2013 Microsoft has created a heck of a mess resulting in huge frustration and productivity loss
    with such simple but important tasks.
    I have hundreds of contacts stored in my Outlook address book, and they all have COMPLETE contact info added. 
    One major issue that I'm experiencing in the new Outlook 2013 is that I now get average of 4 or more duplicate name results appearing for the same contact. And each result contains different and incomplete contact info, making it impossible for me to quickly
    find the basic info I'm looking for. The cause of this issue is that Outlook 2013 now provides results from not only your local address book(s), but it also shows results based  on your email history and social media accounts setup.
    And there's no way to turn this off, or at least specify what folders and/or accounts the People Search box should use.
    To make matters worse, the Microsoft developers conveniently forgot to add some form of an indicator (like a small icon besides each name result in the list)  that clearly indicates what result is from what source. So you must manually click on each
    result one at a time and repeat the search until you locate the correct one.
    For one specific example, I have a contact stored in my local address book called
    Infusionsoft. When I type "Infusionsoft" in the People Search box to quickly find a phone number, Outlook  2013 shows me 7 results with the same name. See the screenshot below:
    As you can see in the screenshot above, every result just says "Infusionsoft", so I have to manually click on each name result one at a time and repeat the process until I find the correct one from my address book. This same thing happens with other
    random contacts.
    From what I can tell, Outlook is pulling results based on  based on recent emails I've received from different people with "@infusionsoft.com" in their email address. So the first result shows "[email protected]" (just the email
    address), the second result shows "[email protected]", the third result shows "[email protected]" and so forth. I don't want Outlook to show all of that. I just want what's in my address book!
    And you would think that the last result would be the correct one from my address book, but no. Sometimes its the 5th result, and other times it's the 3rd or 7th result. So there's no freaking order of things here.
    We simply need the ability to turn off searching of email history and other accounts when using the People Search box. Problem fixed.
    (And please don't tell me that I need to "link" every incorrect result to one main contact. You shouldn't expect everyone to have to tediously link any and all results that appear to a record. ESPECIALLY when 5+ results for each contact appear regularly.)
    ISSUE 2: Some names must be typed in a different way for the Search People to locate them
    Another big issue I'm having with the Search People box is that some name searches don’t show the correct result, unless I search for their names in a different way.
    For one specific example, I have a contact stored in my address book named "Dave Johnson". When I type "Dave Johnson" in the Search People box, one result appears, but it's just his email address, only. It's not the result that's stored in my Outlook address
    book with his phone number, addresses, etc. Screen shot below:
    If I type in Dave's name reverse order (Johnson Dave),  no results are found at all.
    Now if I just type in just"Johnson" all by itself, it finds Dave's correct result (the one stored in my Outlook Address Book). Along with everybody else that has "Johnson" in their name (see screenshot below)...
    I double-checked how I have Dave's name programed in my address book, and it's in there as "Dave Johnson" for both the Full Name and File As fields. 
    Also, the name order shouldn't make any difference when using the People Search Box anyway. Sometimes I can find people by Last Name, First Name or First Name, Last Name. Only with random contacts does it get difficult finding  their info and
    I have to do strange things like this to find them from the People Search box.
    ISSUE 3: Some Search People results only yield an email address only.
    For other random contacts, some search results only yield an email address with no other contact details. But I can open the persons contact card from the address book manually, with the same email address shown! Screenshot below...
    In the screenshot above, I have outlined the Search People box results in red, and the Address Book results in green. You can clearly see that "Robert White" is a contact stored in my local address book with full contact details, but the Search People result
    only shows his email address! Again, it's not consitent. It's hit or miss with different people.
    ISSUE 4: Some results just don't appear at all, but they are in the address book
    Another issue I'm experiencing with the People Search Box is that some people simply  cannot be found. But I can see their contact info just fine if I click on the "People" tab down at the bottom of the page and type in their name in the "Search Contacts"
    field. Why can't the People Search box find certain people? I opened up their contact details and cannot find a single thing  that would prevent them from showing up in results.
    These are clearly serious bugs that need to be fixed. And I'm shocked as to how this got missed--or ignored during alpha and beta testing. I see the "idea" behind the developers having the Search People box search everything outside of the
    address book, but in real world application this causes a heck of a lot of problems & confusion, and it needs to be fixed ASAP.
    For technical details, I have Outlook 2013 running on two computers using hosted Exchange 2010. One system is Windows 7 and other is Windows 8. The same problems occur on BOTH computers. As far as my Outlook account setup, I have all contacts stored in the
    main address book (no sub-folders or other folders).
    Can someone help communicate this message to the Outlook developers??? The "Frown" button limits me to 100 characters and one image. There's no way I can communicate this level of detail and steps to duplicate in 100 characters!

    Thanks for your reply.
    1) The instant search boxes in each individual page work just fine. If I am on the People page and type in a name in the "Search Contacts" field, it searches my contacts and displays the results that I want. But I should not have to leave whatever screen
    I'm in to find people now. In Outlook 2010 and earlier versions, I could be on the calendar page and then search for a contact without clicking off the calendar completely. For productivity-sake, it's a huge waste of time and hassle now.
    2) I'm familiar with how contact linking works, and quite frankly it's a huge mess in general. I NEVER create multiple contacts for the same person. I get that Outlook 2013 get confused now when it detects a LinkedIn or Facebook account for the same person
    already in my Outlook address book, but we need to have options that allow us to turn off results from some or all social networks. This is a big part of the problem.
    Think about it this way - The average person has 150+ LinkedIn connections, and more for Facebook. Many people today have accounts for both and they are setup with the same email address. When Outlook 2013 has to scan all the networks IN ADDITION to your
    local address book(s), it's a no brainer that it can get very confused trying to display results.
    Another big part of the problem is that Outlooks new search system also scans your email history. I receive emails from people who use multiple email addresses, or emails from companies with multiple reps or ticket systems that send you a unique
    ticket ID # ending in the same email address domain. Now Outlook displays people search results based on everything under the sun in my email history. This is beyond frustrating (see my "Infusionsoft" screenshot above in the first post).
    Again, I want to stress that for the search examples I referenced, I only have one entry in my Outlook address book for each person. And that's all I want to find when I search for people--what's already in my own address book! 
    In summary:
    We need an OPTION to turn off searching external networks when using the People Search box
    We need an option to tell Outlook to not scan email history for people search results (I think this needs to be disabled entirely actually. It's not helpful at all)
    There should be a fixed priority for displaying people search results, with local address book results FIRST, followed by social network results.
    There should be a clear icon/indicator next to each result that gives you a clue as to where the result is coming from. Your address book? Facebook? LinkedIn? We should not need to click on each result to get a hint as to where it's coming from.
    Work out the bugs in general with the new search system.
    One other thing that I didn't mention is that the Search People box also shows results for people I'm not even "friends" or connected with on the different social networks. But I've noticed that some people use the same email address for those networks that
    I already have programmed for them in my address book, which is why Outlook sometimes shows me these results. Does that make sense?
    I'll try rebuilding the index, but after testing Outlook 2013 on 3 different machines so far and seeing the same results (all slightly different results on each machine and very inconsistent), I doubt this will address the issue.

  • File Not Found bug with long audio file names?

    Hello -
    Crazy problem. I'll probably post way too much information, but I want to make sure I cover everything. Help!
    We run Logic Studio/Logic 8 on multiple 10.4.10/11 computers - G5 Power PC, new intel iMac, intel mini, G4 laptops. We are working on an audio post job using very messy OMFs that were prepared in Final Cut. We had problems opening them in Logic, so we opened the OMFs in Soundtrack Pro, exported to AAFs, and opened those in Logic.
    The sessions look fine in Logic now (all files relinked), and the session is consolidated - ie, all files are local/in the project folder's Audio Files folder. I see this in the Audio Bin and can confirm in the finder.
    Here's the problem. With the sessions closed:
    (A) I renamed the project folder by adding an asterix to the front of the folder name, and changed the color label of the folder in the finder in order to mark it as the original folder.
    (B) I made a copy of the whole folder (session files & audio files) in order to have something to work from and not mess up the original. When I opened up the session in the new folder, it immediately said audio file not found, do you want to search, locate, or skip. It couldn't find the file in a search, and obviously when you skip, then skip, then skip all, it opens the session with the data (regions are there but grayed) - so all the audio files are orphaned.
    So when I try to locate the file, here's what happens. . . The audio file names are really horrendously long (must be some artifact of working in Final Cut). We're talking: "1087-001A SERG AIRPORT WAITING * 1-1channel_00044D02AA9- 363A-4CC5-A86B-0741023DB062.aif" - one bazillion characters.
    So the audio file locate dialog box truncates the name of the file that's missing by using the first 20 characters or so, and then a "#" character, and then some random string of 3-6 characters that is not at all related to the file name. So who knows which of the 4-30 SERG AIRPORT files is supposed to go there!
    Obviously if this were a 2 minute session file of 10 files or something, we could figure it out and relink everything, but we're talking about a feature-length session with a bazillion files.
    (C) Okay, so I tried to open the original session, in the folder that I had renamed by prefacing the original name with an * and changing the color of the folder. But I started to get the file not found errors. OH GEEZ. So I didn't save. I re-renamed the folder by taking out the * and changing the color label back. Then I tried to open the session again, but I still kept getting the file not found problem.
    I have to stress that I didn't move any of the audio files, or change ANYTHING in the session.
    So I thought - is all of this because I tried to open a new instance of the session, in a new instance of the folder? Is it because I renamed the folders? Normally you can rename folders, even session names, no problems, and Logic corrects the paths to the audio files!
    (D) So, crap. I reopened the original AAF file in logic and saved it in a new place. I closed the file, reopened it, closed, reopened, just to make sure everything was working! I checked the location of the files in the audio bin, and everything was great.
    (E) So now I copied the folders to an external hard drive to be able to work on another computer. But when I tried to open the sessions on a new computer. . . You guessed it, nada.
    So. . . the questions are:
    (1) Those original sessions that now will not work - is there anything I can do to recover their functionality? We had work in there that I would prefer not to lose. . .
    (2) Is this a known bug having to do with the length of the Audio File names?
    (3) How do we get over this? My only idea so far is we could select all in a working logic session and say "Audio Tracks names to regions" or something and will that change the actual file names on teh computer? Then hopefully things would work on mulitple systems. . .
    Okay. HELP! Thanks!
    Polly

    OK I got it.
    It is necessary to use prefix "file:///" before file name.
    Thanx everyway.

  • Cover replaces cover (bug ?) iTunes 7.6.1. (9)

    After last update iTunes 7.6.1. (9) the old album-cover is REPLACED by the new added cover instead of adding it !! Enoying, because I sometimes like to add 2 or more images to the mp3 file like front and back-cover.
    Bug ???

    This was posted by Mimico Kid in another thread on the problem; perhaps it will help:
    This can be a tricky problem to figure out since iTunes doesn't specify what file name is "invalid or too long" and there's no documentation on what determines if a file name is "invalid or too long".
    We had one user report that he was able to use his/her keen eyesight to note the last file that appeared before the error message appeared and it turned out that file was the cause of his/her trouble.
    If your eyesight isn't that keen, I'd suggest concentrating on the file name being too long possibility.
    The entire directory path leading to the file is considered part of the file name so, as an example, iTunes' default settings might place a particular file at C:\Documents and Settings\ user name \My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\artist folder\album folder\whatever.m4a.
    Is the directory path leading to your consolidated location much longer than that?
    polydorus has suggested a way to look over your file names: Assuming your music is currently in the default location, make your way there with Windows Explorer and select List in the View menu menu and see if anything stands out as being unusual.

  • Premiere pro cc2014 bugs?

    Hello
    Has anyone updated Premier pro cc 2014 to the latest version. I havent touched it in ages because of all the bugs and constant  crashing but im eager to return to several  CC 2014 projects that I need to start using again.
    Have the bugs been fixed is it worth using again?
    Thanks
    Philip

    Here's a breakdown and he's the link to the original post. There's some feedback from other customers there: What's Fixed in Premiere Pro CC2014.2
    As noted in the blog post for the 2014.2 release, while this update includes a few new features, it is chiefly geared toward addressing known issues. The blog post lists the higher profile fixes. Below is is a more comprehensive list.
    Import
    Red frames in MXF clips from a particular model of camera.
    Cannot import ARRI Alexa Open Gate clips
    Import fails for IMX 30 MXF clips stored on certain proprietary media asset management systems. Error: Unsupported format or damaged file.
    Some XDCAM HD Proxy files show red frames
    Some .VOB clips play only audio or shows media pending indefinitely
    Premiere does not recognize timecode for audio-only MXF files written by some third-party programs.
    Only the first frame of video plays for AVC-Intra50 MXF files stored on certain third-party media asset management systems.
    Spanned DVCPRO clips have incomplete audio if an XMP file is present but no media cache/pek file are found.
    Some metadata from an Adobe Clip project does not get correctly logged on import.
    Exporting & Rendering
    Rendering fails for MXF media with Posterize Time effect applied
    ProRes exports can be very slow when smart rendering
    Encoded output can include black frames, corrupted frames, or frames from elsewhere in the sequence
    Canceling export to P2 can result in low-level exception if the sequence duration is greater than a few minutes
    Aspect ratio for IMX 30 widescreen anamorphic encodes is incorrect.
    Edit to Tape: Audio drops out while playing out to tape
    The Height setting for encodes to the GoPro Cineform codec is constrained to multiples of 8.
    Smart Rendering: GoPro 2.7K footage cannot be smart rendered
    AAF
    Distorted audio in AAF exports with 24 bit embed option selected.
    If a multichannel sequence has been nested into 2 channel sequence, then an AAF export yields the number of channels in the nest rather than the 2-channel mix-down
    Certain third-party programs have problems relinking to video with Premiere's AAF exports. (Windows only)
    If the first of two adjacent audio clips has a Fade Out applied, exporting as AAF converts it to a Fade In onthe second clip. (Mac only)
    When AAF exports are opened in some third party apps, audio crossfades are treated as cuts or fade-ins.
    Crash during AAF export if a video clip has multiple effects applied.
    When AAF exports are opened in some third party apps, some audio clips and tracks are incorrect.
    Crash upon exporting to AAF with disabled clips that have cross fades applied
    If a multicam sequence with mono audio is nested onto a stereo or adaptive track, then exporting to AAF yields a stereo clip with the audio panned fully to the left.
    When AAF exports are opened in some third party apps, rendered audio of is relinked automatically, but the video needs to be manually linked.
    Playback
    If a UHD ProRes clip is in an SD sequence an scaled to less than 50%, then scaling is ignored during playback at Full Resolution [GPU acceleration only]
    Poor playback performance with certain third-party I/O hardware on OS X 10.9.
    Crash during playback of R3D content [CUDA GPU acceleration only]
    Audio
    Audio sync is lost with some XDCAM content wrapped in QuickTime reference movie
    Audio sync is lost when user starts scrubbing during playback while using certain I/O hardware.
    When playing past an audio transition, the sound sometimes surges and has pops/clicks introduced
    Audio dropouts, and Events panel reports "audio dropouts detected." [Prefetch purge related]
    Audio dropouts in some scenarios after releasing memory (e.g., cycling focus to another app)[Prefetch-related]
    Shuttling for an extensive time can cause audio dropouts
    Project
    If current user does not have write access to certain folders, the crash error message is uninformative (Mac only)
    In Adobe Anywhere, crash when using keyboard shortcut to open Convert Project to Production dialog or the New Production dialog.
    If multiple clients on a network use the same media cache location, then upon importing a given asset each client writes its own accelerator files.
    The Find features in the Project panel and Timeline cannot search by Korean characters.
    In Search Bins, moving focus by keyboard from one clip to another can cause the tree view to expand to show the bin where the clip is stored.
    Project Manager/Consolidate & Transcode
    If the destination drive has insufficient space, Premiere throws an "unknown error" rather than an informative message.
    Project Manager writes some clips outside of folders
    Consolidate and Transcode does not warn the user if the destination drive has insufficient space.
    Unknown error can result from using Consolidate & Transcode with P2 content in the sequence.
    In some cases, Consolidate & Transcode copies and renames the component assets for merged clips.
    If Exclude Unused Clips is deselected, the components for merged clips sometimes still get copied; if the option is selected, the presence of merged clips can yield Unknown Error.
    If the sequence being transcoded contains overlapping "soft" subclips, then some clips may be missing from the sequence in the consolidated version, and In/Out points may be incorrect for the subclips.
    If Exclude Unused Clips is turned off and the project being transcoded contains "soft" subclips, then the consolidated version of the project does not have transcoded copies of the subclips.
    If a sequence contains only audio from an A/V clip, using Consolidate and Transcode to some presets will fail with unknown error
    If the sequences being transcoded contains two copies of a master clip, one of which was the product of Duplicating or Copying/Pasting in Project panel, the consolidated version of the project has only one instance of the master clip.
    If the project contains multiple master clips for the same asset and Interpret Footage is applied, then the consolidated version will have multiple transcoded copies of the source asset.
    If the transcoded sequence contains a hard subclip (i.e., "Restrict Trims to Subclip Boundaries" enabled), the resulting project item is a master clip rather than a subclip.
    Merged Clips
    Comment markers added to a merged clip get inserted to the component clips, but the Name & Comment entries are not saved.
    Hang on right-clicking the current marker in a merged clip in certain circumstances.
    Editing/Timeline

    Multicam
    Audio is lost when flattening multicam sequences that were created with dual stereo movies.

  • Is it true that compound clips don't transfer when organizing, consolidating, or duplicating projects?

    I've been stymied trying to duplicate projects with used media.  My compound clips lose their connections much of the time.  To be fair, I use compound clips that I made before 10.6 and after 10.6. Maybe that's the issue?  Either way, I thinking I'm doing everything by the book -- organizing and consolidating event media, consolidationg project media, then duplicating, then organizing again just to be sure.  But my compound clips connections are getting lost.  I am confused about all of these organizing and consolidating choices and would love to get the dope on how to do this in a fool proof way. That is if there isn't a bug with the compound clip transferring -- which I read on FCP.CO.  Thanks for any advice.

    I've got a project on my Thunderbolt drive that references 3 events:
    My aim is to move this project to another disk with only the used clips, including compound and multicam clips.  So I click on the project and pick duplicate project with used clips and select a different drive.
    (I've tried consolidating and organizing these events and projects before this step but I always get the messages that the media is all in the same location.)
    When the project duplicates, I find that it still references clips on the original drive:
    So I go to modify the event references and drag the event that I want to reference (in this case the one on the Macintosh HD) to the top of the list, as such:
    When I click OK, however, the event on my Mac HD does not really stay at the top of the list, and my info pannel shows that the project is still referencing multiple events in multiple locations.  When I reopen the modify events window, the event references are not in the order I tried to set them at in the previous step:
    I can repeat this process over and over and still get random and incorrect results.
    The big issue is that if I look at the event that I tried to duplicate the used media to, the compound clips are all referencing their original events still.  If I disconnect the drive with those original events, I get the missing media icon in my event and my project.
    If I reconnect the drive and try to organize event files or consolidate or organize project files, my compound clips still reference media from the other drives.
    I believe I've tried performing nearly every sequence of consolidating, organizing, duplicating, etc that I've read about -- not just the sequence above.  And I never get reliable results with compound clips. 
    I would love a review of the exact sequence of events I should follow to successfully archive a project on a separate drive with only used media, including compound clips.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

  • Lightroom 4 Bug: can only see photos in Library mode, not develop mode

    This may be related to other imported catalog bugs, but does not seem to be quite the same. In Lightroom 4, with an upgraded Lightroom 3 catalog:
    1. Select a photo in Library mode.
    2. Click on Develop to go to Develop mode
    Screen shows "No photo selected". I cannot edit photos in Develop mode.
    I can see and edit photos that are found in smart collections, but not photos that are simply in my collections from 2012, 2011, etc. folders

    This happened to me, too, after importing a couple older LR3 catalogs (upgrading/consolidating). I could see the photo in Library module but when I pressed "D" (single photo selected) I was getting the "no photo selected" error message--for every photo I tried. I wasn't able to open any photos at all in the develop module. (These were photos that were fine before installing LR4 and upgrading.) Photos were from imported LR3 and LR4 Beta catalogs.
    I restarted and everything seems ok--for now!
    So if you come across this thread with this same issue, restart and see if that helps. (Before restarting LR I optimized as suggested above, which did nothing for the "no photo selected" issue. And this isn't related to the parent folder issue, I left my photos in the same place and didn't have more than 3k photos in any of the parent folders. I read in other threads that people had the issue again after importing other catalogs. I'm about to do that so I'll report back.

  • Serious bug when handling accented letters in language names

    Hello,
    While porting my linguistic plugin to CS5, I found a rather serious problem in the Windows version of CS5 (the Macintosh version works all right with the same code). Language names containing any accented letters (anything beyond the basic ASCII range, so even a non-Unicode-only one between 128 and 255) are treated completely wrong. ID doesn't recognise a document created in a previous ID version as having the same language (comparing the language names seems to be corrupt). ID doesn't allow the actual language to be re-selected manually in the Character or Paragraph Styles Edit dialog, it will revert to the erroneously parenthesized version of the same language.
    The final proof that points to an ID bug rather than something in my own code is that the language name corruption can be clearly seen when two documents are created with the same language both on Macintosh and Windows. By looking into the .indd file with a hex editor, the Mac version stores the language name correctly, including the accented letters, the Windows version stores it up to the first accented letter, and replaces the rest with garbage.
    Is there any way to get in touch with an ID developer responsible for this area to verify this problem and to determine whether it could be worked around somehow?
    Bye,
      Gábor

    Ah, solved... It was user error. The files in question were missing from the disk in iTunes library, so of course they were missing on my Apple TV too.
    What happened. I have two laptops, and iTunes libraries on them got a bit out of sync over time. So I consolidated them on one laptop and made backup copy (probably using ssh/scp and/or tar) to my Linux box. Then I wiped out the iTunes library on my second laptop, and copied entire content of iTunes directory over SMB. Well, guess what, any file that had accented letters in the file name was not copied over (not sure if this is limitation of SMB as a protocol, Samba server on Linux side, or Samba client on Mac OS X side). The iTunes database on second laptop (to which Apple TV was syncing) now contained references to the files that were no longer present on the disc. When syncing to the Apple TV, iTunes would notice there are songs referenced in the database that were not present on Apple TV, try to copy them and fail (since the referenced files did not exist) over and over again.
    I've just located all missing files, spc-ed them over where they should be inside iTunes library, and all is working fine now.
    I wish there was a way to have automatic two-way sync between iTunes libraries on my desktops/laptops, instead of having to move files around manually...

  • GPS Metadata for Managed Images Bug

    Alright this is really dumb. Aperture strips the GPS metadata for managed images on a version export, but does not for referenced files.
    It just took me 4 hours to figure that out, ug. Metadata is sacred! Always preserve it.

    My Aperture library uses managed masters.
    I too discovered that if I performed *version exports* of geotagged masters the exported images did not retain the GPS data. The problem was the same regardless of whether the masters were .jpgs or RAW files. (Geotagging was performed with Maperture and Maperture Pro; the bug symptoms are the same regardless of which tool was used.)
    Additionally, I discovered that if I performed *master exports*, then not only were the geotags retained in the exported files, but that +reimporting those same exports resulted in new masters whose versions would subsequently retain their geotags on version export+.
    synonym wrote:
    If you Relocate Masters... BEFORE you add GPS metadata using Maperture you don't lose any IPTC metadata. If you then Consolidate Masters... you can then apply GPS metadata to these images within your Aperture library and you will not lose IPTC or the GPS data on exporting the versions.
    If I'm reading this correctly it sounds like you can "scrub" your library of the problem by relocating masters and then consolidating them again, and that subsequently applied geotags (and by inference IPTC metadata) will be retained on new version exports. Did I get that right?
    However if you already have loads of images in your Aperture library that you have added GPS data to with Maperture and you also have loads of IPTC metadata on them and adjustments what do you do?
    I did a backup of the library at this point to a vault. I then restored the vault and GPS data and IPTC metadata was all retained and was also all retained on exporting versions!
    And if I'm reading the last sentence of your post correctly, it seems like the consistent behavior between our two situations is that if *images are brought into the library with geotags already in them* - in your case by library restoration and in my case by re-importation of previously geotagged masters - *then the geotags will be retained on subsequent master and version exports*.
    Is that a valid conclusion to draw? If so, it sounds like I could workaround the problem of geotags missing from my version exports by either A) relocating and then consolidating my masters, or B) by the three-step process of:
    1) geotagging my images,
    2) updating the vault, and then
    3) restoring my library from the vault.

  • Keyword consolidation

    Can anyone offer any help, suggestions, erm... plugins?
    Over the last few years I've built myself an extensive keyword hierarchy in Lightroom - several thousand keywords in it - works well for me.  Since LR3 is able to handle larger catalogs, I've recently imported my pre-lightroom images.  Import worked fine, the only problem is these images were keyworded prior to having a keyword hierarchy.  This means that all the keywords have appeared at the top-level of the hierarchy.  I now have literally thousands of duplicate keywords in my catalog.  And in for reasons I won't bore you with several hundred triplicate keywords, all of which need to be consolodated.  In fact there are so may duplicates at the top level that I the list is longer than lightroom can display in the panel.
    Because the 'duplicates' are at the top level finding the duplicates is easy.  Here's the steps I'm taking to consolodate the keywords.....
    1. look at duplicate keyword in the top level.
    2. Click the arrow to display the images assigned to the duplicate keyword
    3. type the keyword name into the "filter keywords" box
    4. locate the master keyword from the list of filtered keywords (this only works providing the duplicate keyword isn't a synonym as there is a current bug that prevents synonyms from being filtered this way - that bug really isn't helping this!).
    5. Drag the images from the grid onto the master keyword.
    6. Delete the duplicate keyword from the top level
    As an estimate I have at least 3000 duplicates/triplicates that I need to consolodate.  Providing I don't mis-click or mis-type the above process takes about 70secs per consolodation.  By my estimate that would take 60 hours of clicking and typing to complete the consolodation.
    Can anyone suggest any ways to speed this up?  I've looked at Rob Coles keyword consolidator, but that just tells me what needs consolodating and doesn't actually do any of the work.  (In my case I already know which keywords need consolodating - it is manually doing the work that is the problem.
    Thanks,
    Ian

  • Trying to export to new library WITHOUT consolidating masters

    I am trying to export a project as a new library and I DO NOT want the masters to be included.
    But when I export->project as new library and then UNCHECK "consolidate masters into new library" the raw files are still copied over, making the new library very large so I am unable to put it in Dropbox.
    The original library is managed. This seems like a bug, since exporting with or without the consolidate option checked makes a library of the same size with the raw files in both.
    Is there something I'm doing wrong?

    So, the controlling issue here is 'referenced' vs 'managed' Masters. From the manual:
    "If your project contains referenced images and you want the master files available to the new Aperture system: Select the “Consolidate masters into exported project” checkbox to copy the original master image files into the new library file."
    It doesn't say explicitly, but implies, that unchecking that checkbox allows you to make a new library file without copying the original image files into the new library file. This is in fact how it works in my testing.
    Notice it only mentions referenced images. What it doesn't say, but is in fact the case, is that if the images are 'managed' i.e., contained in the library package file, then selecting "Consolidate master into exported project" makes no difference. The original master image files get copied into the new library file whether you want them to or not. This is what happens when I test.
    I've confirmed the difference between the two scenarios by selecting my project, going to File, "relocate masters for project...." and moving my master RAW's out of the library and into a folder elsewhere. After doing this, I again select the project, choose "export -> Project as New Library" and it works as expected: I can deselect the "Consolidate..." option and a library is made WITHOUT the Master Raws.
    So apparently this behavior when masters are 'managed' is not a bug, it's designed to be that way. This makes no sense whatsoever.
    1. Why have the checkbox for consolidating if it doesn't do anything?
    2. Why NOT let you create a new library file WITHOUT copying the original master image files, JUST AS YOU ARE ALLOWED TO DO WHEN YOUR MASTER FILES ARE REFERENCED outside the original library?
    So the solution is: Do not ever use Managed files. I would have thought that there would be some benefit to having the files stored in the aperture library, but apparently there are actually LESS features available. (All my RAWs are in their own file structure on my RAID in my tower and therefore referenced, but I assumed that it would be easier to just have them be managed on my laptop.)
    Always use referenced files on every system and I am then able to transfer projects back and forth between systems without being forced to include the large RAWs.
    Thanks for all the input, and if anyone has any insight into whether my conclusions are correct or why this might be so, I'd be grateful to hear it.
