Copying meta data when using cp in terminal

I'm copying images off my camera into a folder on the desktop.
i'm using the command.
find . name "*.JPG" -exec cp {} /[desktop]
however the files do not carry over the metadata for the original images. ie. All the pictures apear as taken the day i made this transfer.
Anyone know how to ensure the metadata is carried over also ?
Thanks,.

Just to add to J D McIninch's answer, keep in mind the distinction between image metadata (eg, EXIF tags), which the system does not extract from the file, and the filesystem metadata (plus resource fork, if any), which cp copies with the -p option.
Image metadata is indexed by Spotlight (if compatible or the right plugin is installed); and you should be able to access it with your image manager.
To examine metadata indexed by Spotlight, use mlds. If you need a CLI tool to manipulate image metadata, you probably couldn't do much better than Phil Harvey's ExifTool

    you have to find out what the user did before your program goes ahead and starts the BAPI.

    Hi
    You can achieve it in another way..
    Before Passing Data to BAPI , Check whether the material is existing or not..
    If material is existing (Present in Material Master Tables e.g. MARA ) using
    data: l_matnr like mara-matnr.
    Select single matnr from mara into l_matnr.
    IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
    " Material is existing ==> Do Not Pass to BAPI
    else.
    " Material is NOT existing ==> Pass to BAPI for creation.
    endif.
    Repeat above logic for every material in batch..
    Hope it will solve your problem..
    Thanks & Regards

  • Does verizon selects collect data when using wifi ?

    When signing up for verizon selects is states it collects data when using wireless service but does it collect data when using home wifi which is not verizon?

    I'm not sure why one would want to participate in this program but if one is weary about it I for sure wouldn't use it.

  • Can I copy meta data from a jpg and past to a tiff. I have CS6 photoshop

    How can I copy metadata from a JPg files and paste onto tiffs.  I send JPGs to stock agent and when they select I then send Tiffs and want to avoid re typing meta data if possible.  Also some pictures have similar meta data information and can I copy that and paste into another picture?
    Please give me keystroke information if this is possible as I get confused easily.  Use photoshop for dummies language if you can.
    thanks a lot  Gail

    You can copy&paste individual fields, but not the entire data. It's a moot point, anyway. PS will retain metadata e.g. when a file is saved using Save As... to a format that supports metadata and JPG and TIFF both do. also one would simply use Bridge to edit metadata in mass with multiple images selected...#

  • Too much meta data when importing to Flickr

    I've noticed that when I export a photo directly to Flickr it seems to carry with it a TON of useless meta data. It happens when I use the Flickr export plug-in as well as updating to Flickr from their site. Here is an example of too much data (basically everything after Compression):
    http://www.flickr.com/photo_exif.gne?id=108281029&context=set-1648131
    If I retouch the photo in Photoshop then everything below image length is not include (which is my preference). Here is an example:
    http://www.flickr.com/photo_exif.gne?id=111724050&context=set-1648131
    Has anyone else experienced this? Has anyone been able to change this function? Thanks!

    I have not used my EOS-M for video but the GoPro 3+ Black files import with all Metadata intact.

  • Preserving Meta Data when encoding JPEG (JAI)

    I have a project where the requirements are that images which I compress (using the JPEG encoder of JAI) must be as much compressed as possible, but also must not be altered in any other way from the original image file, i.e. things like meta data must be preserved exactly as it was, and preferably other things in the header (such as resolution) should also be preserved.
    I have had no problems with the compression process as such, but unfortunately it seems that JAI writes a fresh new (default) header every time the compressed (encoded) image is written out. I also tried the new Java Image I/O stuff for doing this, and it seems to have exactly the same behaviour.
    I have searched both thses APIs extesively for something which would enable me simply to set the option that original meta data (and preferably all header data) should be preserved, but to no avail.
    I do realize that image meta data can be both read and written (at least using the Image I/O), but I find it quite complex and also find it a pitty and a waste to have to do that when the requirements are not about altering/processing any of this data, but simply about leaving it alone.
    If any one has any suggestions about how this problem might be solved, I would be very interested to know about it, and very greatful for any hints or pointers to information also.
    Thank you.
    Helgi

    What do you meen about meta-data??? Can you provide an example.....
    i.e. an initial image you have, in what format is in, it's meta-data (as you say ) and what you finally get encoding

  • When I connect to wi fi does my 3G automatically switch off. As I seem to be using a lot of my data when using wi fi at home

    When I connect to wi to, does 3G automatically switch off my iphone4s as I seem to be using a lot of data even when using wi fi at home ?? Thank you

    Hi,
    As far as I know, when you have a WiFi-connection all data will go through WiFi and therefor will NOT use your 3G data.
    Kind regards,

  • When using irssi in Terminal, backspace doesn't work, forward delete does

    When using irssi (the command line IRC client) in 'screen' over SSH on Terminal.app, backspace (delete) doesn't work. I have to use forward delete (in my case, fn+delete). Is there any way to enable backspace delete?

    I should also add that I saw instructions on how to fix this for OS X Tiger, but Terminal.app in Leopard seems to have changed.
    http://jeremy.zawodny.com/blog/archives/000299.html
    {quote}
    "If you're on a Macbook Pro laptop, and using irssi with screen on a remote machine via ssh...
    If your backspace key is acting as a 'delete'-key in irssi in screen, Hit command+I, in terminal to bring up your window preferences, under the Keyboard settings, tick 'Delete key sends backspace' - that should fix that."
    {quote}
    The problem is that Leopard's Terminal doesn't have a "Delete key sends backspace" option to toggle. Does anyone know where I can find this?

  • JComboBox only show 10 items data when using DataBinding

  • When I copy files from my camera to my C drive and import to PP there isn't any meta data when I import direct from camera it is available.

    My camera is a Sony HDR-CX730 AVCHD format
    Software is Windows 7 and CS6 Production Suite
    When importing images direct from the camera all metadata such as dates, time etc is available in PP
    When files are  copied from the camera to C Drive on the computer and then imported into PP the metadata is lost.
    What do I need to do?

    Thought it might have been the case. My GH3 also shoots both AVCHD and MOV/H.264  files. With the GH3, the AVCHD is both more complicated (on account of the folder structure) and a slight bit noisier ... with no other image quality gain. So I've done as most folks, shot really only the MOV with it.
    But that first bit of shooting with it ... um ... naive, shall we say? ... after 35+ years of pro stills portrait shooting, and more than a decade totally digital, well ... yea, I just grabbed the image files too. As do an awful lot of people. A very common thing to solve around here!

  • Discoverer 4i Plus returns no data when using views with db link references

    I am using Discoverer 41 Plus to view reports online.
    When I create a worksheet based on a view, that only references local tables, everything is OK and Disco plus shows the output OK.
    When I create a worksheet based on a view, that references a Database link, Disco plus gives me an "Query caused no data to be returned" error.
    Is this to be expected from Discoverer Plus?
    Thanks - Sue.

    I'm wondering if this has anything to do with the default position (and default aggregate) for the EUL folder item? I can see that some of the folders have number type items with default position 'Data Point' and others have these with default position of 'Top or Side'. I'm totally stabbing around in the dark here; looking at EUL folders which exhibit the problem and those which don't.
    I've tried changing one field to 'Data Point' and it hasn't helped. Will try changing the join items now I think.
    If anyone has any comments, would be v. grateful as I'm looking at dropping folders which have quite a bit of code around them and trying to re-create them exactly, which is a risky and horrible solution.

  • Berkeley db lost data when using autocommit

    I has written an app which uses berkeley db 4.5.20(libdb_cxx-4.5.so). There are serveral threads reading and writing the same db using autocommit. All the reading threads share one db handle and All writing threads have their own db handles. In reading threads, cursor and explicit transaction are used to retrieve data. In write thread, the db->put method is used to write data. In the app, the return value of put is checked to see whether success.
    After serveral days running, the app definitely lost some data(there is a thread to dump the imcomming data to disk for comparison), and the return value of put method seems all ok. Can someone point out the possible reason or how to debug this from log files or something else?
    The DBENV is opened with flags,
    DB_INIT_TXN | DB_INIT_MPOOL |
    DB_INIT_LOCK | DB_INIT_LOG |
    DB_CREATE | DB_RECOVER |
    DB_THREAD
    The DB handle is opened with flags, DB_CREATE | DB_AUTO_COMMIT | DB_THREAD

  • Control the Post Date  when use BAPI_OUTB_DELIVERY_CONFIRM_DEC to PGI !

    Dear all,
       How can I control the Post Date (WADAT_IST) when I use BAPI_OUTB_DELIVERY_CONFIRM_DEC to PGI?
    Thanks to help me.

    In ECC 6.0, I used this BAPI to perform the picking using this way:
    1. Implement enhancement point  BAPI_OUTB_DELIVERY_CONFIRM_D01 in enhancemnt spot ES_SAPLV50I to set the update picking flag on delivery control structure.
    GS_DLV_BAPI_CONTROL-UPDATE_PICKING = 'X'
    2. Implement enhancement of standard BADI SMOD_V50B0001. Use method EXIT_SAPLV50I_004 to loop at table CT_VBPOK and update the fields VBELN and POSNN with suitable values.
    There is one problem with this solution, though.  The delivery quantity cannot be updated.  Any increase in the delivery qty ITEM_DATA-DLV_QTY actually updates the picked quantity on the delivery.  Consequently, there is little practical use of this technique.
