Duplicate keywords in different heirarchies

When you drag a keyword into a parent that already has the keyword the cursor turns into the no-no circle slash symbol and will not allow you to drop. A preferred behavior would be to allow the drop, and integrate with the existing keyword. This is particularily useful when importing large numbers of previously kewworded images that did not follow the Lr heirarchy you may have set up.
For example, import many images with the keyword "Bob".
The Lr catalog already has the keyword "People > Bob".
Bob
People
Bob
I want to be able to drag the first Bob onto People and have Lr automatically get rid of the Bob I dragged and add the keyword "Bob > People" to all the images.
Thanks for reading.

A related improvement that would be nice is to be able to select multiple keywords (this you can do), and then drag them all somewhere else in the keyword tree. Currently, as far as I can determine, you can only drag one keyword at a time.

How do I combine duplicate keyword tags in the organizer ?

While organizing my photos I realized I made duplicate keyword tags for the same person. Is there a way that I can combine two keyword tags for one person into one ?

Do you mean you assigned two slightly different keywords to the same person ? Like personA and personB ? If that is the case, select all persoB, assign also person A. Then delete 'personB' keyword.

Italicized duplicate keywords - How do I get rid of them permanently? - BRIDGE CS5

In the keyword panel,I have the same keyword in several places in the hierarchy. I think some came in as legacy keywords, and others, I inadvertently created the same keyword twice. These duplicates appear in different parts of the whole keyword list. Now so I don't have all those confusing duplicates, and so I can find stuff, I would like to delete the extra keywords. The duplicates appear in italics. I can make them persistent, but I can't get rid of them. I've tried all sorts of things like finding all the files with the keyword in question, manually deleting the words and then re entering. I can delete the words, but they will magically reappear. What I want to do is consolidate multiple, duplicate kewords. Is that possible? Any ideas?
Thanks!

That root is for Mac OSX right?
I'm using Windows 7. The only other possiblity could be Lightroom
3 which I downloaded yesterday to see if I could fix this problem. Where can I find the keywords file for Lightroom.

Fixing duplicate keyword problem in LR 2.2

I have imported Controlled Vocabulary into my existing keyword library. Unfortunately I already had existing keywords tagged to a couple of hundred photos. As a result I now have duplicate keywords for each photo. I realize I may have compounded my problems by saving the keywords directly to photos(CTRL-S) after the import and before attempting to delete duplicate keywords.
Is there a way to delete entire library of keywords and re-import CV without deleting keywords from the existing XMP files? Then I could continue keywording photos using a fresh CV library and edit existing duplicates when I had the time. Obviously I am hoping to avoid the worst case scenario of re-keywording all my photos.
Note: I sent a related question on a previous thread(on 2/7)and never received a response...

Jim, I'm in a similar workflow attempting to use a single controlled vocabulary across several libraries. The problem I run into is when adding new keywords to the vocabulary, I have to remember to export the whole keyword list and update all of my catalogs before going on to the next task. Also, as in your case, if a keyword is deleted from the vocabulary or moved to a different tree there is no easy way to duplicate the change across all libraries.
In the same way that all of my catalogs share a common set of develop presets, are you aware of any way to have several lightroom catalogs work from a single set of keywords?

Issue Creating Duplicate Database on Different host using RMAN Backup

HI friends..
I m trying to create a duplicate db on different host ....... 27
i have live production db on ............. 15
its up 24*7.
i know how to create dup db using cold backup..but dont know how to create it using RMAN Backup..
I have googled..but getting issues..
Steps Taken till now
Note- I dont have catalog created on live db..
I already have set the tnsnames.ora on both servers
1) Took full backup plus archivelog plus control file on 15
2) moved it to another host..ie 27
3) now on live db..
I conected to rman target /
so i m now connected to prod db
than i try to conect to rman auxiliary sys/sys@dubpd..
But it gives me insufficient privilages error..
Can you tell me what to do next..Coz unless i get into mount phase on sever 27( new server)..i cannot use the control file from backup).my dupdb is up in nomount phase..but what enxt i can do..to restore the control file and than restore the backup after cataloging them to right path..
Thanks in advance frieds...

Am i missing something..1- It could be a network problem. You may enable tracing on listener (and examine the logs).
2- Add "DIRECT_HANDOFF_TTC_LISTENER=OFF" to listener.ora, then reload the listener
3- You may want to increase "large_pool_size"

I am using FCPX 10.1.3. and want to duplicate my project, and its complete resources, to a different hard drive. When I click "duplicate", it automatically duplicates the project in its current hard drive. How do duplicate to a different hard drive

I am using FCPX 10.1.3. with Yosemite, and want to duplicate my project and its complete resources to a different hard drive. When I click "duplicate", it automatically duplicates the project in its current hard drive, unlike the previous FCPX that gave you options. How do duplicate to a different hard drive?

Since projects are now stored in events and events are stored in libraries, you need to create a new l;bray on that different drive or open an existing library on that drive. Then duplicate your project and move it to the new library. It will copy the media. Then use the Consolidate Project File command to round up any external assets; there may or may not be any.

Duplicate version looks different than original -- same adjustments

This morning I imported a few photos (D70 RAW), found they looked good with the default processing (no adjustments applied other than the default RAW 1.1 processing), and created duplicate versions to crop to different sizes. The duplicate versions look different -- the dark areas of the photos are lighter and noisier (sorry, still learning proper photo terminology). The duplicate versions have the identical adjustments (none). I tried toggling the cropping on/off, and the duplicate versions still look different.
This is very odd... has anybody else experienced this?
iMac 24" 2.16GHz Mac OS X (10.4.8) 2.0 GB RAM NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT 256 MB Nikon D70

I did a little more investigation on this issue, and found that when I make the duplicate version, the image still looks identical. It is when I crop the image that things get messed up -- even if I then remove the crop adjustment.

Duplicate Keywords in Keywording Panel

I kind of have a lack of knowledge about keyword hierarchies already installed and being used. This question is going to be less than together.
I will have imported all my photos into Lightroom already. Their associated keywords should be in the Keyword Panel. (I have not done this yet.)
The bulk of the imported will have been keyworded in Nikon View 6.0.0. (I had no flat keyword list or hierarchical keyword list already in Nikon View.) I keyworded these photos into Nikon View's IPTC from looking at a independent paper list. The rest of the recent photos imported will have been keyworded inside Lightroom and/or keyworded from Nikon View NX2 and imported. [I haven't decided yet which one I will keyword from, Lightroom or NX2...unless you have a suggestion.]
The Keyword Hierarchy will have been made up after the bulk of my photos have been imported... In short I'm trying to give you a future scenario of my work flow at this point so I can start asking questions.
I have read of people having trouble with duplicate keywords being added to the Lightroom Keyword List Panel after they get their keyword list/hierarchy set up. The following thoughts about unwanted duplicate keywords turning up in a keyword hierarchy I read and am not 100% clear on:
'The trouble with hierarchical keywords is they always end up with child keywords somehow re-appearing at the top level. It can happen when they re-import a picture that's been processed in another app. Or when a group of child keywords becomes duplicated in more than one part of the hierarchy. Usually because they have changed the hierarchy at some point and imported an older file. Or they changed the hierarchy on a laptop and then brought files over to the main PC. Something always upsets the logical structure they have put into place. So rather than continue with this problem, they have gone back to a flat list in Lightroom.'
Could someone spell out what is above so I am 100% sure I think I know what is it saying? Are there any more instances I could get an unwanted duplicate keyword or keywords in the Panel? So it is not a good idea to change the Hierarchy after you get it set up? How about additions?
I'm scared now to start a hiearchy! Scared for problems it might cause in the future. I like the idea you can filter search on a whole category or subcategory. It's easier to zip down to find a keyword. Especially with 700 plus keywords. I'm scared to impliment it. Could anyone explain? Thank You So Much for any information!

In my opinion, someone has written something that implies a terrible thing has happened (duplicate keywords), when in fact duplicate keywords can be avoided by maintaining a structured workflow; then if a duplicate keyword does appear (because you didn't maintain the structured workflow, or like most people, you just plain made a mistake), this isn't a terrible thing; in fact, this is something that might take 20 seconds to fix in Lightroom.
The structured workflow I am thinking of is the following: if you have keywords added by other software, import all (yes ALL) of the photos into Lightroom, and then clean up the hierarchy to be the way you want it to be. Then, there is never another instance of importing photos that already have keywords. From that point forward, do all of your keywording in Lightroom, and you will not likely get duplicate keywords.
And if you do find a keyword that is out of place, you have several choices:
Panic, and never use Lightroom again
Gouge your eyes out so you can't see the problem any more
stay calm and drag the keyword to where it should be in the hierarchy
As opposed to keywords out of place, duplicate keywords also give you choices. You can use choice #1 or choice #2 to solve the problem, or you can (Choice #3) simply apply the correct keyword to the photos, and then delete the duplicate.

Over my several years of using Lightroom, I do find that I accidentally put keywords in the wrong place. The problem is fixed, via choice #3 above, in under 20 seconds. Also, over my time using Lightroom, my photography subject matter has changed, or my organizing needs have changed, and I have re-arranged parts of my hierarchy to suit my new needs, and/or added new top level keywords or middle level keywords or bottom level keywords. It is relatively painless and simple. The biggest problem (and yes, it is a problem) is when you have to drag a keyword from the top of the hierarchy to the bottom (beyond the bottom of the screen), scrolling isn't as smooth as it should be, but it still works. This is hardly a reason to avoid hierarchical keywords.
Honestly, I think someone has placed bad thoughts in your head.

Duplicate Keyword Problem

I've obviously made some huge error while adding keywords to my images. See the attached smart album pop up. Despite the fact I've tried to enter my keywords exactly the same using a constant taxometry and nomenclature-- I've got dups of the same keywords over and over again (San Francisco is the perfect example below). I know that the keywords do match-- there might be the occasional capitalization error, but there isn't hidden characters or extra spaces that would have defined a new keyword.
First off-- what have I done wrong when adding keywords to my images?
Secondly-- is there an easy way to merge all the duplicate keywords into one?
Thanks. Long live Aperture.

This has happened to me also. What you need to do is to find out which pictures have the "wrong" San Francisco. You can for example choose just one of them and see what shows up. Delete the keyword from that file and then replace it with the "right" San Francisco from the keywords HUD. You can just drag it from the HUD to the file so this process is really not that hard. When you think you are done - rebuild the database and see how much work you have left. Moving on into the future tedious as it may be you can avoid this by using the keyword HUD or keyword keys to add keywords to files. Aperture treats you badly if you type the word in yourself. If you have embedded the misspelled keywords in the files with other programs you will not be able to eliminate them from the pop-up - as Aperture will not overide those errors in the originals.

Aperture 3 will not let me delete duplicate keywords

KEYWORD Craziness.
I have gone through my keyword list, and it is extensive, and edited duplicates out... to find them re-populated when I come back to Aperture. I have chosen to use all lower case font in my keywords so now it is obvious to pick out the duplicate. For example, the keyword "BUILDING" comes back which of course is right under "building". I have stopped applying keywords on import to avoid any possibility of duplicates and use presets to apply keywords...less typing more accuracy. Why is Aperture adding back keywords that I have edited many times. I use families to organize the keywords. The duplicate keywords do not have any pictures associated with them... strange that they keep coming back!
Does anyone have a suggestion?
Thanks in advance

Kirby,
Thanks for your input.
Three more things to look into- my situation
-I do sync a few pictures on Mobileme.
-I do have extensive Keyword Preset Groups of which I have deleted and rebuilt in the past couple of days precisely for the reason your noting. They were old information and they did not sync with the master list.
-I am using more than one library, but I am in the process of consolidating. I only use business photos on this computer (MacBook Pro) and relegate all personal photos to the iMac. Keywords are specific to work on the MacBook Pro.
Multiple libraries - Switch to Library - vs - Restarting Aperture 3
My first question would be... is the keyword list universal to all libraries? The answer...no.
I just switched between libraries and each library has it's own keyword list. I tried to import my edited keyword list from my main library to another library... it did not import the corrected version. I quit Aperture 3 and restarted to engage the changes (I'm guessing that is what one needs to do) I made in the main library Keyword List... and it worked. I switched to another library imported my edited Keyword List from the main library and now everything is in sink throughout my libraries. I have the same keyword list. I am editing all libraries into my main library applying keywords as I go, so I was not worried about loosing any keywords that were applied in those libraries.
Thanks for you insight Kirby. Any other tips? I'd gladly take them.

Deleting duplicate records from different data packets in BI data source.

Hi,
I am getting same (duplicate) records from different data packets in BI data source, after completion of extraction.
I tried to store key fields of the first data packet in an internal table. But this internal table is not carrying the previous data at the time of extraction of second data packet.
Is there any other way to remove duplicate records after completion of extraction.
Thanks in advance.

I did not extensively worked in BI routenes. But I recon there will be routene which will het executed before data mapping part there will be a start routene in which you can validate the existense of data before beeing passed from data source to cube.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Murthy.

Can I have the same photo (or a duplicate) in two different Events?

I would like to show the same photo in two different Events but can't seem to do it/ I tried creating a duplicate of the photo, but that didn't work, either - when I try to move the duplicated photo to the second Event the original photo moves as well.

sorry but you can not - this is a job for albu (and folders which hold albums and other folders) - you have outgrown the very limited power of events - albums and folders are much. much, much more powerful and flexible thatn events which are vey simple, basic automatic organization for people you really do not to be botrhered with organizing
For this you whould have the photo in an event and in an album (or several albums) - you can assign a keyword liek "longwood Garden" to photos and have a smart album that will automaticaly add all photos with that keyword

Different keywords in different albums

Can I have different keywords assigned to the same image that is in different albums?
Let's say I have 2 albums, Stock1 and Stock2 The same image is in each album, but I want the keywords to be different. Possible?

The only work around I can think of is to make a Duplicate Version, leave them stacked then make one the Album Pick in Stock1 and the other the Album Pick in Stock2.
Not ideal.

Duplicate photos in different folders

I have duplicat photos in some different folders. How do I tell which folder, from within Aperture the photo was uploaded from so I can delete duplicates.

No, I have another internal hard drive which I know store all my raw photo's on and I have 2 or 3 other folders with duplicate images in them on that hard drive but don't know which one of those folders I Imported the images from. So how do Isolve that.So I can deleted the duplicates. Thanks for the reply
If you only want to know, if images in a folder on an external drive have already been imported, let Aperture check:
Connect the drive with the folders
Open Aperture's "Import" panel (the downarrow in the toolbar"
Make sure the option "Do not import Duplicates" is active and no images are excluded by "File type".
Select the folder in the file chooser in the Import panel.
If the Import window stays empty, then all images in that folder have already been imported.
