Copy GPS Metadata Back into Photoshop TIFFs with Bridge Scripting

I've published a sample script on the Bridge blog about metadata scripting with Bridge and AdobeXMPScript -- specifically the script deals with GPS metadata and automation that synchronizes work done by both Bridge and Photoshop.
Here is the link:

Enjoy!

I couldn't read all through your post as I am jetting out of here.
Buy this:

and install it. It's relatively cheap. Screen shot is from Windows Explorer.
Handles ID, PSD, etc., files as well. Though the preview uses greeked text for the most part for the ID files.
Take care, Mike

Writing metadata back into photos without exporting each file

I am most likely going to be switching from PC to Mac. I currently use Adobe Photoshop Elements to organize my photos. I like iphoto, but it is lacking a lot of the features I enjoy in Elements.
One feature that I use a lot in Elements that I can't seem to find in iphoto is writing of keywords, descriptions, and GPS data back into the metadata for the file. In Elements, you click a button and the data is written into the original file. But, how do I do that in iphoto? Do I have to export it? That seems strange to me.
-Debbie

You can do it with the demo version ofMedia Expression. But you only have about a 20 day window to use the application. Follow the first 8 steps of Old Toad's Tutorial #1 - Recovering Keywords and Rolls From a Damages or Crashed iPhoto 6 or 7 Library for a New Library.. It applies to iPhoto 8 also.

Really Getting Back into Photoshop, What Should I Read?

Hello, all.
I'm really getting back into Photoshop, what should I read? I just finished the Visual QuickStart Guide, and I have to admit that it has been good for getting me back up to speed quickly, but it's very, very lightweight. I've read Scott Kelby's Photoshop CS2 for Photographers, and although it's good it's too gimmicky for me. I looked at the behemoth Real World for CS2, and that is way more than I need right now.
Is there anything substantial that would fit between the QuickStart and the Real World?
I'm a portrait/headshot/editrial photographer. I'm in control of my color and tonality. I don't do collaging or photomerging. I use PS for blemish removal, general localized retouching (clean up stray hairs, cloning out sockets on the wall, things like that...), and some other basic things. I have CS2 at home, where I use PS the most, and CS3 at work.
Any robust suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much,
Scott

Thanks!
I mentioned that the Real World stuff is too intense for my level right now.
Ben Wilmore...never heard of him. I'll have to do a little snooping...
Eismann: you guys seem to be on to something. I like her style. I spent a long time in Borders today checking out her stuff. She has a Masking and Compositing book, a Restoration and Retouching book, and a Creative Digital Darkroom book. Not sure which one would be what I need though :(

Import GPS metadata info into Lightroom

How do I import GPS metadata info into Lightroom from either my camera or from disk? I'm using lightroom 3.2. It shows up in CS5 Bridge, why not in Lightroom?
oracle 52

I downloaded the plug-in and used the metadata file preset for geo-tagging plus all the others in Adobe Lightroom 3 prior to "import" using the "Add" submenu. Only under the geo-tagging preset in Metadata did I see the "labels" of latitude, longitude, etc. However, the metadata for each of the photos for these labels were blank. Yet, when viewing these photos on Nikon VX from which the photos was imported shows the correct GPS coordinates. Why isn't this data being displayed in Lightroom as it appears from the original file on my hard drive?

How can I copy a sound track into photoshop

In the past I thought I put the soundtrack as a AIF file in Soundtrack Pro and then copied and pasted it into a photoshop window, but that doesn't seem to work now.

Photoshop does not have the ability to analyse audio files, are you sure you know how you did this in the past? You must do that in an audio editor, like, oh, Soundtrack. You'd use Grab to copy the window and paste that into Photoshop. If you want the waveform display to move in sync with an audio file, you ust export the waveform as a movie file and that is a bit more complicated.

Can't Copy Messages/Mailbox Back Into Mail

Hi,
Something strange is happening, so I'm hoping someone here can help work it out. This is what I did:
(1) In Mail, I had a sub-folder (Folder A) on my Mac. It was annoying me (because it was a sub-folder and I wanted to make a full folder), so I ...
(2) Copied the Folder A.mbox to my desktop and then deleted the sub-folder in Mail.
(3) I've been trying to move/copy the messages and/or mailbox back into Mail from my desktop but it won't budge. I've tried opening a new folder in Mail to paste the messages into, tried to import them, but nothing works. They're stuck on the desktop in Folder A.mbox.
(4) the .emlx messages themselves are not corrupted as I can open them individually from the desktop. I can move, paste, copy them everywhere BUT Mail.
Does anyone here have any idea what's going on, and how I can move Folder A back into Mail where it belongs?
Thanks for any help or advice.

Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
In earlier versions of Mail, each xxxx.mbox folder had its own index (different name for the index in Jaguar and earlier vs Panther. In Tiger, there is only one universal index, spanning all mailboxes -- this was done, most likely, to benefit Spotlight.
Thus, using the Finder, in pre-Tiger OSX, you could place a xxxx.mbox into the Mailboxes folder, and when you next launched Mail, it would find the newly added mailbox, and all would be well.
In Tiger, you can no longer simply move in a new xxxx.mbox, nor replace any xxxx.mbox folder, because the indexing will not recognize it, without an additional step of forcing Mail to reindex ALL mailboxes, by removing the Envelope Index -- you can force this to happen, by finding the Envelope Index file at the root level of the Mail folder, and removing (after having Quit Mail). When you then relaunch Mail, it will announce that is ready to import your mailboxes -- allow this to happen, and it will really only be reindexing all your mailboxes, including any into which you paste the xxx.emlx files, from any xxxxx.mbox folders that have been created with Mail 2.x, or that you have dragged into the Mailboxes folder.
In Mail 2.x, you can import mailboxes from any folder of xxxx.mbox folders (created with Mail 2.x), selecting only those you wish to copy, and these become additional xxxx.mbox folders in the Mailboxes folder, and the Import function takes care of the indexing issue.
Keep us posted.

MISALIGNMENT PROBLEMS USING "LOAD FILES INTO PHOTOSHOP LAYERS" FROM BRIDGE CC

I'm having a persistent problem which technical support was unable to resolve after being on the phone with them for 1.5 hrs. I was told the issue would be escalated... That was five days ago, and I've heard nothing.
Here is the problem: In ACR working on a bracketed group of five images shot from a solid tripod in Bridge CC. I carefully synchronize all parameters incl. crop, transform, exposure, etc. Then I go to Tools / Photoshop / Load files into Photoshop layers, and the images open in photoshop in a layered file..., BUT some are knocked out of alignment. Actually they have been cropped slightly smaller than the original file, always by the same number of pixels. Sometimes all layers are affected, sometimes not.
Photoshop CC & Bridge CC are both up to date, as is the camera raw plugin. I’m on a new iMac i7 4-core, OSX 10.9.4. All software was newly downloaded from Adobe two weeks ago. I have reset preferences, reset tools in Photoshop, even uninstalled and reinstalled Bridge CC 6.1.0.115 all to no avail. Any suggestions? I am desperate for some help.

I run Windows 7 Ultimate, I have 2.00GB of RAM with 1.74 usable, and I selected 40 images, each about 2MB.

Photoshop CC stops working after using Load Files into Photoshop Layers in Bridge CC

Okay, so basically I selected some 40 images in .bmp to load into Photoshop, but it stops working and closes. I don't have any other versions installed and I already tried installing it again, with no avail. Is there anything I can do to fix this? Should I also try installing Bridge again?

There is no Photoshop Option in the Tools Menu in my Bridge CC.
Is ther another way?

Photoshop CS5 with Bridge CS6?

I want to use the tool function in Bridge CS6, but it is not showing Photoshop CS5. Can I connect Photoshop CS5 to Bridge CS6 and if yes, how can it do this?
Thanks

I just checked and tried to re-install Photoshop CS5, but the CD doesn't actually include Bridge, so I am back to square one.
Any idea how I can link the two together?
Thanks

When opening a Photoshop file with Bridge, how can I control which version of Photoshop the file wil

When opening a Photoshop file fthrough Bridge, how can I control which version of Photoshop the file will open in?
I store my PSD files adjacent to the original RAW file from which it was derived.
If I open the file folder and double click on that PSD file, it opens in CS6. But,if I use Bridge (CS6) to navigate to and open the same file, it first opens Photoshop CS5 and then opens that PSD file in CS5.
How can I control which Photoshop will open a file I select when opening it through Bridge?.

Interesting, but it doesn't give a clue what I'm supposed to do. No Photoshop ducuments listed.
Look at the PSD file on the location Curt provided and search for Photoshop Document. Next to it ideally should show Adobe Photoshop CS6 if you have Bridge CS6 open. Click on it to provide the fly out menu and choose the correct Photoshop from the list.
But probably something went wrong with your install. By default Bridge chooses the latest version of PS to open its file in.
Maybe a reset of the preferences might also help you. Can you provide more details about OS version etc.
And do you have a good reason for keeping your Raw and finished files in the same location. Personally I keep them apart and use a proper file name convention (yyyymmdd and details) so I can easily search for the DNG files in my archive if I needed them but I don't make mistakes in opening the wrong one

Help Getting Started with Bridge Scripting

I'm trying to learn enough about scripting to understand/modify some simple Bridge scripts, but can't seem to find the proper documentation. I have downloaded the Bridge SDK, have the documents for Adobe Intro to Scripting, Adobe Bridge CS5 javascript Guide and Javascript Reference Manual, and a general Javascript manual. But I can't find where BridgeTalk commands (such as send, onResult, and remote Photoshop calls) are described, as well as many other commands like push, localize, or the use of $ signs.
Can anyone point me to reference materials I would need to learn these things??
Many Thanks

JavaScript Tools Guide CS5.pdf Should be in a folder along with the ESTK install… You will find most of you subject matter in that. Mine on the mac is located…
/Applications/Utilities/Adobe Utilities - CS5/SDK/JavaScript Tools Guide CS5.pdf
If not then get one from http://www.adobe.com/devnet/scripting.html
