Contact sheet caption missing for some photos

I made a contact sheet from a selection of photos and for some reason, the one metadata field I selected to output with each image, the IPTC caption field, is included in some but not all photos: the specific photo I wanted did not have the caption output. (It is a JPG file.)
The caption is rather long (27 lines, 517 characters), but that should not be a problem.
Any ideas why some image's caption field is not coming out on the contact sheet?
Regards,
Strathglass

No one have any idea why captions for some photos do NOT appear on my contact sheets?
Regards, Strathglass.

Missing "Contact Sheet II" fix for CS4

Somewhere I saw a missing "Contact Sheet II" fix for CS4. Can anyone point me in the right direction.
The PDF contact in CS4 is not flexable and is very limited. You can't see it in Bridge or make changes like you can to a jpg contact sheet.
Thanks Marv.

Can't Use Batch Rename "Rename In Same Folder" for some photos

Have a strange problem: when using "Batch Rename…" under the "Tools" menu, "Rename In Same Folder" is unusable for some photos taken with some cameras, not for others. For one example, I shift-selected a range of photos taken at a recent vacation, some with my iPhone, some with my girlfriend's Canon PowerShot SD450. Bridge renamed the iPhone photos, but not Canon photos. For another example, if I select a single photo taken by her cell phone or Canon camera, "Rename In Same Folder" is grayed-out; if I select a single photo taken my by iPhone, not so. Does anyone understand this behavior, and is there a solution?

Bridge Support Center in the help menu leads to a 404 error page.
Sadly enough this is also on my system (Mac OSX 10.6.8) It should not be showing 404 but it is there...
What Bridge help files and links, forums, communities, google searches do not do is tell you how to fix what happens with the problem
In general restarting Bridge holding down option key (in your case alt key) to choose reset preferences solves most problems.
Here is a page from Adobe Support about Troubleshooting (although this states you should combine option/alt with cmd/ctrl but that is not needed)

I want to use Bridge batch rename to change jpegs into Mac PC compatible jpegs.
Although I have the option for compatibility with Unix and Windows checked in my customized presets I'm not really aware of the need for that. If you have a .JPG or .jpg extension as the extension a Mac reeds and opens the file without problems. I am aware that as a Mac user I had the need to take care of Windows files in the past. Before OSX a Mac did not need an extension to recognize and open a file. Since OSX is Unix based the need to use an extension is there and also you should only use one dot (.) in the filename and that is before the extension at the end of the filename. Using spaces, commas etc is possible but not prefered. In basic, keep it simple (and short) and the file will open on all systems without problems.
When you select a preset, the rename and preview buttons grey out. So I start all over...clear cache, check file permissions, restart/shutdown, etc
That should not happen, presets and batch rename should be always available, even if you have only one file selected. You should start with the refreshing of the preferences. Deleting caches and checking file permissions are not needed every time for clearing prefs (although it is wise to maintain your system on a regular basis, but that is good for the use of all apps).
On a Mac the user defined Batch Rename settings are saved in the user library / application support / Adobe/ Bridge CS5 / Batch rename setting. (not a single clue how that translate to windows but I have no reason to believe that such a file should not be present on your system.)
Enter the term "batch rename" in the windows Bridge forum search and I got....ZERO results.
Well, again a disappointment, there will be many result available in both Windows and Mac forum but it sure is not easy to find them
The forum search option is next to useless. I believe you should try to switch to the main forum page or something, I once had a result but after so many tries I forgot how I managed this (combined with getting angrier every try...)
I could really use some help because there is no way I can convert the number of files I have to make them compatible in MACs
As stated before, if the are .jpg they are already compatible
it used to be in CS 3 and 4 but since I "upgraded" to Production Premium suite 5.5 none of the version work.
If you keep having problems you might consider the clean tool option to clear PSCS 3 and 4. Check also this KB article:
http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
It should be possible to use all CS versions on your system but you can have only one version of Bridge active at the time. Upgrading from a single CS to a Suite should also be possible without problems but sadly enough everything that should be possible without problems is often only happening in the ideal world...

Showing Resolution in Contact Sheet Captions

I'm creating a contact sheet using Bridge CS3 for Indesign CS3. I want to show in the caption the resolution and the dimensions in inches. Does anyone know if and how this can be done.
Thanks

Try the InDesign forum for this, there used to be a second contact sheet

Turning off "Ken Burns" effect for SOME photos

I see that someone has asked a similar question in the past and told that it's not possible to turn off the Ken Burns effect for some photos, but I'm hoping someone has a workaround or there's a hack...
I've made a slideshow and got the idea to "tell the story" by creating some "title" images in Photoshop elements which I've placed in between a series of photos.
These are just black backgrounds with the title (e.g. "...and the party begins", "Family reunion" etc.) in big white letters. I'm very happy with that idea
I like the Ken Burns effect for the slideshow as it adds some semi-video "action" effect, but NOT on the titles. Having the Ken Burns effect there just looks stupid, so I would like to remove it for the titles alone.
I know I can do it the other way round (go to "Settings" for the Slideshow, deselect "Automatic Ken Burns effect", then manually add the effect for all the photos I want), but with a slideshow album that's going to take ages to do!!
Is there a better way?

Perhaps you're checking the KB button on the "main" menu for the slideshow. That actually changes only the setting for the image that is currently selected. Try using the "Settings" button and deselect the "Automatic KB effect."

Cost and/or Conversion Rates are missing for some planning resources

Hi,
In Workplan of projects, we are facing a issue "Cost and/or Conversion Rates are missing for some planning resources". even though the schedules for the project WP is defined.
Any inputs on this is highly apprciated. Thanks !!!
Regards,
Pallavi

Did you check the Cost for all the Planned Workplan Budget Lines. Generally, this type of error comes when the Quantity is defined but the Cost is missing for any Line. Find that Planned Workplan Budget Lines and enter the Cost for them and save it.
I hope it may help you.

The floppy drive is a horrible analogy. One could still use the external floppy drive, as you say. But what your analogy is ignoring is that at some point that floppy drive option will disappear as a later OS rolls out and the floppy drive is no longer supported, however the other people I am innvolved in working on a project need me to have a floppy drive to pass along my work.
Yes, I can use FCP7 as I need to for the time being (and will do so) but you can bet that won't be the case for all that long. Eventually the ability to use FCP7 will decline as OS changes etc. In the meantime you can bet that the broadcast and film world is not going to change their delivery specs and requirements simply because Apple decided to change FCP to X and ditch the genuinely PRO features of FCP7. There are too many Avids and other options for them to decide that they will change just because a portion of the professional editing world has been forced into Apple's way doing things. They will simplu say, "Get an Avid . . ."
So the floppy analogy not so accurate.

LR 3 Contact Sheet Caption Problem

I am using LR 3.0 on a Win XP machine. I want to print a multiple line caption below each picture on a multi-row, multi-column contact sheet using the single image contact sheet layout style. I have set up a preset in the photo info panel with the information I want and how I want it to appear below each image on the contact sheet.
My problem is after I have everything set as I want and see in the first page when I select another set of images or another page the preview will only show the first line of the multi-line caption. I have to make some change to any one item in the layout panel such as change a margin or cell spacing or change to another layout and back in the photo info panel for all lines of the caption to appear. If this is not done, the actual print will only show one line of the caption. The multi-line caption worked fine in LR 2.
I have searched forums, blogs, etc for help and have not found an answer to my problem. Has anyone experience this problem and found a solution?

Hi there
Seems like it is a bug - if so you can report it to Apple by choosing Provide Aperture Trial Feedback from the Aperture menu within the program.
Printing seems to be the main thing from prevent AP3 from being useful to me currently, inability to make presets 'stick', border printing around an image even when no border is selected. There's probably more problems in printing but I'm kind of disheartened to use it to find any more, it's cost me a lot of wasted time already.

Contact sheets with header for contact info?

I'm trying to print my first contact sheet (actually a jewel case insert), and I'm very surprised to see that there appears to be no way to include some type of header and/or footer that would include my contact info, copyright, etc.
Am I missing something in AP, or is there a work around for this? It seems useless to send out a contact sheet that doesn't include at least my name.
Thanks,
Andrew

Because you didn't look hard enough. Make sure you check "Photo Info" and the click on the popup next to it and select filename or setup a custom text in Edit..

A client gave me he's mini Ipad wifi as a gift.It has all his information:photos, music, contacts, etc.I also took some photos that are in camera roll. I would like to erase everithing and make it totaly mine but don't want to loos my photos and his music

A client gave me he's mini Ipad wifi as a gift.
It has all his information:photos, music, contacts, etc. I also took some photos that are in camera roll. I would like to erase everithing and make it totaly mine but don't want to loose my photos and his music which is very good. How should I do???

Resetting the settings will reset things like the wallpaper to the default. It wont remove the apps or music.
As the previous poster said, the apps and music will be tied to the previous owners Apple ID, you'll need the password to update the apps and remain authorized to play the music.
I would suggest taking your stuff off (the camera pictures) then erasing all content and settings so the iPad is like new. For privacy reasons alone I would erase the device. I realise you want to keep the music, but since you haven't paid for it (it was purchased under someone elses ID) then it isn't yours to keep, you'll need to write down the tracks and purchase them under your ID.

Create Contact Sheet II missing

Hi,
I'm trying to create a contact sheet in CS4 using <File><Automate><Create Contact Sheet II>
The trouble is that <Create Contact Sheet II> is missing from the drop-down menu. This is the first time I've tried this since downloading and installing CS4, but I've done it often using CS3.
How do I find/retrieve this menu option?
Thanks

Please read up on the changes in CS4.
Contact Sheets can be created in Bridge now.
Yes but they are not satisfactory for many reasons.
You can get the legacy plug-ins from the Goodies folder or download them from the Adobe site.

Contact Sheet II missing from menu (CS4)

Hello,
I have CS4 and in Photoshop automate menu Contact Sheet II is not listed. It's also not listed in Bridge under Tools>Photoshop.
I've seen discussions on here for the entire automate section to be missing in Photoshop and the whole photoshop section missing in Bridge, but nothing on a single menu item missing.
I know it's supposed to be there in CS4, A) because I've used it before (on another machine), and B) Adobe Photoshop CS4 * Create a contact sheet. It's driving me nuts!

Ohhh, turns out you have to install plugins for them (Adobe Photoshop CS4 * Optional plug-ins, also on the 3rd disc "Content").

Master Images Unavailable for Some Photos

I have permanently deleted some photos that either I've done edits on and prefer the edits, or just poor photos. However, I've now ended up in a situation where when I publish an album to MobileMe or AppleTV, Aperture seems to want to access these deleted masters. I didn't like them, hence the deletion, how can I find what it is that is referencing the deleted masters?

Manage Referenced Files Option allowed me to find which preview Aperture could not find the master for. I had not appreciated that the default view in Aperture shows you unrated or better photos, which means photos you mark as rating 9 or X are not shown - so when you copy/move photos around you do it without touching the 9 or X photos. In reorganising photos I managed to delete masters because of this view setting but still have versions derived from them.

Aperture 3 Contact Sheet Caption Bug ?

Hi, has anyone figured out a way to keep the relationship between metadata captions and the images consistent when compiling contact sheets. I am finding that if there is a mixture of landscape and portrait images, then the caption will not adjust to appear below the portrait images but simply print inside the image. Also, all the captions change their relative positions when you change the column/row configuration. Is this a bug and if so, does anyone know how to report it to Apple.

IMovie to iDVD shimmering problem on DVD for some photos

Created iMovie with photos and some video. Created DVD. DVD on Mac shows shimmering on some photos as well as on TV DVD player. Have asked many trainers in London Covent Garden and Regent St for solution. The answers are not consistant just try different things. They also mention other products, Toast, Final Cut and FotoMagic. Is there a definitive way to make sure the iMovies can be created without shimmering (many snow, sunshine scenes). Or product that fixes problem. Thanks in advance. Don't want to buy product and still have problem.

For future reference, this is from iTunes Help.
