Delete Edit History in File Info?

I did a Save As of a .psd file to a .jpg. How do I avoid (or delete) the edit history metadata in the File Info of the .jpg file? I want to keep this metadata in the .psd file only.

thanx for the info. i noticed that it also deleted metadata that i had added: description, keywords, location data, doc title, and perhaps other data that i did not notice which is a concern. Is there not a way to just delete the edit history metadata from the file?

  • How to reset/delete autocomplete entries in file info metadata?

    I've got some autocomplete junk in some fields of the file info metadata - how do I delete it? Vista 64.
    Thanks.

    Yes, I agree, that was a vague description.
    I open the File Info window for a single image or group of images to add location information. Once I've added, say a state such New Jersey in the state/province field, the next time I start to type"N" in that field the New Jersey autocomplete pops up. This is fine. The problem is I've added something wrong, such as Pensvylania (misspelled), and then I have that misspelled autocomplete popping up if I start to type "P". I also have some fragments, such as "Ne" where the autocomplete popped up and I just tabbed, rather than entered, and now I have "Ne" as an autocomplete choice.
    There must be a file somewhere that stores those autocomplete possibilities. I wanted to find that file and delete the bad ones. I could not see how to delete that choice when I was working directly in the File Info panes.
    Does this describe the problem a bit better?
    Thanks.

  • Mac OS deletes Bookmarks, History and files to a point of time

    hello,
    i have a serious problem! my Snow Leopard erases after returning to desktop (minimum 1 hour) from Screensaver my bookmarks always. recently it has deleted 20 GB of personal photos. every day in Crash-Log folder appearing several new log files. currently i do not use the screen saver, but it is a hard cutback.
    there are made lot of callings to the Apple support and my trader. they changed lot of hardware (without Superdrive and display), but it's the same always.
    i am really unhappy about my situation, especially about the deleted pictures. actually i am very careful with my datas. but due to the unnoticed erasing i have overwritten my backup with the wrong datas. and no, TimeMachine isn't usable with FileVault.
    my question is:
    what can I do, to trace the error? what are the first steps? software, readings etc.
    some more information about the error:
    1. the problem appeard the first after copying my entire datas from external to internal harddrive. i have executed only Apple apps (e.g. Textedit or Safari)- nothing special (e.g. addons or external apps).
    2. bookmarks become deleted only from a special point of time. after a installation i replacing the bookmark.plist for my older bookmark.plist. the erasing deletes only the newer bookmarks.
    3. with the deleted picture the special point of time is the 6th februar. not matter whether or not there was been a installation. i made lot of them. the same pictures became deleted from two different folders- very odd.
    4. in former installation, i have imported the Safari history. this is deleted to a point of time as the bookmarks, too. recently i do not copy that, and the problem didn't appeard since then.
    really thanks a lot for help!

    hello, serious thanks for trying to help!
    Is the internal drive your boot volume?
    yes, it is
    What exactly did you copy, just pics and docs and music, or did you try and move an entire account? You can copy the files, but you cannot just copy an account if it is the only account on the system.
    no, i havn't tried to copy an entire account. it is been a clean install. the problem occured the first time direct after copying my 430 GB of data and bookmarking a randomly site. after a while i copy system relevant (old) data from external drive to internal.
    after a while i copy from user library the bookmark.plist file, complete folder of "Calendar", complete folder of "Address Book" and keychains "login.keychain" file.
    You mention that you lost 20G of pics. Is this not still on your external drive? Just copy them back.
    impossible, as i have written: the erasing didn't displayed any warning or hints. after all, i backuped my (faulty) data from internal to external backup drive. after a while i recognized the erasing- to late.
    Time Machine don't support FileVault.
    The bookmarks problem. The new bookmarks are going to be lost as you are replacing the file from a previous date.
    no. once after a new clean install and copying of all my data, but without my user library and upper described data, i made a test. i bookmarked randomly an internet site and launched the screensaver. voila: bookmark gone.
    I am starting to see a pattern here and it starts with
    installing the system.
    The system comes preinstalled and you
    create an account on first boot. From that account you can
    add file and folders (doc, movies music pics) as you see fit.
    you can install apps to your hearts content,
    I have several hundred. I strongly recommend that you, as a user, do not modify anything in the system or library folders.
    sure, first appearance happend before i have copied upper described library data.
    I am not sure why you feel the need to turn on FileVault as long as you are not doing something that calls for that level of security. A quality password with at least 12 characters (numbers and letters) and there are several option in the general security pane of system preferences you could use.
    i know, but i am lot on the road with lot of personal and important data. so, in case of burglary i know that my data is safe.
       You appear to be reinstalling your system on different occasions. Back up your system before any changes that you do! There are basically two options for install OSX erase and install and install. A install will upgrade your system and leave your account in tact (you must turn off  fileVault). So your account is the same as before you did the install and nothing has to be changed for Safari or your printers. If you move your account back from a previous backup, it may be out of sync with the version that you installed. Should you with to reinstall your account, either use timemachine of migration assist.
    i make always a clean install. first i erase with Disk Utility my drive, once i have overwritten entire drive with 0. then i install Mac OS, activate FileVault, activate encoding RAM, copy my data.  
    Be careful with your files and do check the dates on the files that you rare moving. Copy over newer ones and data will be lost!
    i am very carefully with my data. after every backupping my system, i am checking randomly the backup.

  • Deleted/edited original iPhoto files and photos import every time I connect

    I think I may have done a bad thing...
    I was moving photos from my computer to my external hard drive and deleted and edited some originals iPhoto files. Now, every time I connect my camera, every photo imports and it takes forever! Is there any way I reverse this or is this a lost cause?

  • Exporting File Info templates

    I save templates of metadata and edit them in "File Info", however I can't export ( save) the new edited version, why?
    My biggest client has several divisions that require different templates and occasional tweaks of the metadata in the "File info".
    I work from Bridge, CS4, I had the same problem in CS3. Older versions allowed you to save over the old version of a template, why was that eliminated?

    I have had a similar issue. The "Info" panel in PS CC 2014 seems to be an incomplete rewrite, & needs to be fixed.
    The panel has a cosmetic remake and the convenient dropdown selection of XMP templates I had in prior versions of PS CS & CC are absent.
    A template can only be imported for a single use, so the next time you want to use it, it hasn't actually been imported to be added to the drop down list as per the earlier PS editions.
    I am using a Mac so to get to my templates for those single uses I follow this path:
    HD-->Users-->(me)-->Library--> Application Support-->Adobe-->XMP-->Metadata Templates
    I cannot import the entire template folder, and I can only select a single XMP file. This is tedious  to say the least and is a bug which needs fixing. I have yet to find a workaround, and the Adobe support person I spoke to seems to have difficulty differentiating presets from templates.
    So I am using PS CC 2014's Metadata info panel at a minimum for now, and I am making most of my metadata changes in Bridge or Lightroom 5 with previously built templates.
    This is even more frustrating as Bridge CC has not been updated for CC 2014, Adobe support has told me that they are still working on a Bridge 2014 release, and Bridge CC is not fully compatible with PS 2014. For example Mini-Bridge is absent, as is Adobe Exchange. It seems that PS CC 2014 was not quite ready for primetime.

  • Delete SWF History?

    Hi I am fairly new to Flash Development, but have started trying to bypass some of the more tedious tasks I've been running into.
    I have Flash CS5.5 and I've noticed when updating BMP Asssets in my files, the file size will balloon in some cases to over 1GB
    To fix this I back save it to CS4 purely because it deletes SWF History. the file seems to visually remain exactly the same.
    That can sometimes reduce the file size to 1/10th of what it was in extreme cases (usually it's about half)
    I then have to update the Publishing Settings to return to the current flash player and Resave it as CS5
    That's quite a few steps to reduce the file size on many many files.
    Apparently JSFL does not handle saving different versions or updating the flash player settings so I've been stuck doing it by hand.
    My question is, is there a simpler way to do this?

    Doesn't seem that I have that option,
    I have Control > Clear Publish Cache, but that doesn't reduce the file size at all.
    What I usually do is import a bitmap as part of sequence, but I have to embed it in the file, rather than leave it as a reference, because I send the result over a network.
    When a change is requested, I just redo the image sequence in another program and update all the bitmaps. but that causes the .fla file to get larger each time it's done.
    But since I have to send it over a network, each time an update occurs it would take longer to send unless I backsave it to CS4 and delete the SWF History.
    can't find much reference to SWF History anywhere else. and it apparently doesn't affect the visuals of the file.
    Even if there was a setting somewhere that would prevent the compiling of this history that'd be useful as well.
    Though so far I haven't discovered it.

  • Noob w/File Info History Question

    Hi....
    Noob to PSE forums. Had an old copy of CS2, used Elements 7 on my daughter's computer, and just recently grabbed Elements 8.
    I love it.
    The question: How do I turn on the history log in the file info tab in Elements 8?
    I need to have my editing steps recorded for a competition website where I participate, and I can't seem to figure out how it's done.
    TIA
    Jeb

    I'm looking to pull the info out of the file info selection in the main menu where it has the tabs for the EXIF info.
    For whatever reason, the history tab is blank. It did bring up the history palette, and the steps are duly recorded, but how does that get into the file info tab?
    File>File info>History is the one I'm looking at.....

  • Edit history file

    Is there a way to edit history files? I know I can delete them but how can I delete a few from a days history?

    Hi BB,
    I am most likely using an earlier version of Safari than you but I'm sure it is the same for Safari 3. Look for the "book" icon in the "Bookmarks bar" and click that (should be on the left side of the bookmarks bar). A new window will open with a "History" selection in the left column (Collections). Select History and then you will be able to selectively delete history pages from the list in the right pane.

  • I've tried multiply times to update itunes 10.5 but it keeps saying that it can't find the file and i can't reinstall itunes because it will delete the 100 gigabites of info on it what can i do

    i've tried multiply times to update itunes 10.5 but it keeps saying that it can't find the file and i can't reinstall itunes because it will delete the 100 gigabites of info on it what can i do

    I've had all kinds of trouble keeping my iTunes software current over the past year, but have found the easiest way to remedy the issue is to simply download the latest version of iTunes as though I am a first-time user and then just install it into the directory my current version of iTunes is using. Doing this has allowed me to update my software without losing any of my media/data. Hope this helps! Best of luck!!!

  • I deleted my ibooks author file but the preview is still available on my ipad, can I get the ibook back into ibooks author to continue to edit?

    I deleted my ibooks author file but the preview is still available on my ipad, can I get the ibook back into ibooks author to continue to edit? I have not published anything, just previewed on my ipad but the file seems to be deleted from my imac which is what I was using ibooks author on. Any help is welcome!

    It's not a 'process' at all.
    If it was easy/straightforward, people would be turning store versions into iBA versions left/right and all **** would break loose. It's not and that's a good thing, sorry
    Work up from whatever version you have.
    Any work you value should be backed up....period. That backup should be used and tested regularly. Consider this a lesson learned, perhaps. Good luck in the future.

  • How to change the colors of the font(file-edit-history)and so on

    i have just updated my persona and now i am having difficulty reading the (file-edit history) and so on,also the saved sites in the toolbar. they are currently red and it blends into the persona which makes it difficult to see. thank you in advance. pete

    If you have installed a persona then the default text color and background color of the toolbars are defined by that persona.<br />
    The colors of the currently selected persona are stored as the first entry in the pref <b>lightweightThemes.usedThemes</b> as textcolor and accentcolor.<br />
    You can edit that pref and set another value for the "textcolor":"#ffffff" part (e.g. "textcolor":"#000000").
    See also http://kb.mozillazine.org/about%3Aconfig
    A default value for the pref that you can use for locally stored files lightweighttheme-header and lightweighttheme-footer if you have a backup.<br />

  • Can "File Info" data be deleted?

    Hello,
    Currently using FM11 and creating unstructured documents.  We make custom types of equipment and tend to start a new document from a previous version.  We'd like to delete the previous "File Info" data and update with current data for the new document.  We delete the "File Info" data and save the document, but when reopened, the data is still there.
    Thanks you in advance,
    WRB

    Is this a book, or a single FM document file?
    If a book, make sure you delete file info in the Book dialog, and just for good measure, if leaving empty, also make sure all of the component files have no File Info. I haven't tested it, but it wouldn't surprise me if FM uses the first-found when building the PDFinfo.
    In our release process, we routinely process the PDFs in Acrobat Pro, Examine Document, and let it remove (only) Metadata and File Attachements (since it's buggy on everthing else). Removing Metadata deletes almost all of the PDFInfo (FM File Info).
    We end up pasting the desired values back in, so that search engines can find our stuff. Some search engines may only index PDFinfo, either because that's all they do, or because that may be the only plaintext available if you have certain security settings.
    I suspect Google indexes everything, as long as it can open the PDF at all, even if it needs to OCR the whole thing.
    Attention Authors: on the Windows platform, your user/login name is often written to the PDFinfo by default. This is either a benefit or a hazard. If it's a benefit, it's not my problem .

  • I have no "File - Edit - History - Bookmarks tool bar at the top of my screen and can't figure out how to get it!

  • I recently lost the capability to "view" the "File, Edit, History bookmarks, tools & help" bar from the top of my screen, as well as the "Start" button on the bottom of the screen.

    How do I get the "File, Edit, History, Bookmarks, Tools & Help Bar to appear on my browser. I also need my "Previous Page & Next Page" arrow... and my "Start" button to appear at the bottom of my screen. I can't navigate without these.

    Be sure you are not in Full Screen Mode. The F11 key will toggle Full Screen Mode on or off. If you have no Firefox toolbars, tab bar, etc., you are probably in Full Screen Mode; your Windows Taskbar (with the "Start" button) will also not be visible.
