Duplicates after import

Hi,
New to iphoto. I did an import from cd of my images, and they all showed up in last import. I created a new folder called flowers, and copied about 500 pics from the 'last import' into my flowers folder.
Now I did a spotlight search to see where the images were stored.
Surprisingly I saw:
/users/Craig/Pictures/iPhoto Library/Originals/2008/Feb 16,2008/*.jpg
/users/Craig/Pictures/iPhoto Library/Data/2008/Feb 16,2008/*.jpg
It appears (doesn't seem to be symbolic links) that the images are duplicated, no editing done after import on these pics. In the Data directory , all pictures have rw-r--r--@ (note the @ sign afterwards), while in the Originals , some of the images have the @ sign but most of them don't.
I'm unclear why this is happening , what the @ sign means. I know not to modify the iPhoto database, but I certainly don't want duplicates of every photo I put in.
Appreciate any feedback and comments on this.
Thank you.
Craig

Craig:
I use PhotoPresenter for some of my slideshows. It has over 20 animated themes that you can use. Here are just two: Apple TV Intro - Reflection. It integrates with iPhoto so you can make slideshows of albums or events. You can run it in demo mode to see if it fits your needs.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Duplicate after importing iTunes from old to new system

    Justy upraded to a MacBookPro and moved my iTunes library (media + playlist) from old windows notebook. After importing I have duplicates songs and playlist.  I followed the instructions provided on this forum for exporting/importing only the media files and playlist.  My library is very large and removing individual songs/playlist would be time comsuming.  Anotyher twisty is some songs are he same but with a different artist.  Any suggestions.  Koyangie

    If you are a resident of the U.S. and have iTunes 10.3 or later installed on the new computer, you can re download your iTunes purchases for free without having to import.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID as on the prior computer.
    On the new computer, launch iTunes. From the menu bar click Store / Authorize This Computer before trying re download your purchases.

  • Option to import duplicates after import?

    When LR says it has not imported files because they already exist in the catalog, it would be nice to have a button that says "import anyway."
    On a related note, that window only shows a list of file names, which is not very user friendly. Nor does it show both locations.

    Yes, understood. That is a great option most of the time, but sometimes you don't know what the duplicate situation it until after LR has chewed through the import. So it would be nice, gracious even, if LR presented the option when it notifies you of the offending duplicates.

  • Many duplicates after import from Aperture to Photos

    After a very long import process taking my 155Gb Aperture library and going into Photos, I see many many duplicates of photos.
    I tried to re-import with the same result.
    What's the best way to mitigate this?

    I tried to re-import with the same result.
    What's the best way to mitigate this?
    How exactly did you do that?
    The usual way is to launch Photos by holding down the alt/options key and double clicking the Photos icon in the Dock.
    That will bring up a Library Chooser panel.  Select your Aperture library in that panel.
    The upgrade of the aperture library may take a long time for a large library.
    If that is, how you have done it, you may need to repair your Aperture library before migrating it.
    Open the Aperture library again in Aperture, that you just migrated. Are there any duplicates in the original library, for example in ProtoStream auto import projects, or in recovered folders?
    Then try to delete  these duplicates, while still in Aperture.
    To try to repair and rebuild the Aperture library and the permissions of the library before upgrading it to Photos. do the following:
    Firmly hold down the key combination ⌥⌘, while double clicking your Aperture Library in the "Pictures" folder to launch into the Aperture Library First Aid Tools. Select "Repair Permissions".
    See: Aperture 3 User Manual: Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library
    If permissions repair does not fix it, try the other first aid options, but make sure, you have a backup copy of your Aperture Library.

  • Find suspected duplicates after import

    I have approximately 11,000 photos to organize.  I created a catalog name and chose to skip suspected duplicates.  Approximately 8,000 photos were imported.  This is reasonable since I consolidated photos from current drives and backups of two computers. 
    How do I find the suspected duplicates?  I want to review the duplicates and delete all duplicates to free disk space.  How do I which photos were not imported?
    Thanks, in advance, for any assistance.
    Ken 

    Hi Ken!
    Lightroom does a fairly decent job finding duplicates during an import but does not make it as easy once the images are in the catalog. Take a look at http://www.lightroom-plugins.com/DupesIndex.php. You can try it for free and see if it will help you out.

  • Multiple alarms in ical after import

    is their a global way to remove a 2nd alarm that seems to have happened after importing from outlook. I have 2 alrms and i think this is making my ical file and entry numbers huge.
    Can you globally remove alarms and other ical event functions

    CaptainStarwars,
    FYI, this multiple alarm issue is affecting a lot of iCal users under a lot of different circumstances—not just import. Do a search and look for other threads.
    My observation is that MobileMe is responsible somehow. I fixed ALL my repeating events last week so that they all had a single alarm (like they're supposed to), and today duplicate alarms started showing up again.

  • Photos - import sometimes re-imports (duplicates) old imports

    I was on vacation for a week. Every day or two, I'd put the same SD card into the Camera Connector so the iPad would import the new photos; I was NOT deleting them after import. Sometimes this worked fine - it would ask about importing the duplicate photos, and I'd say no so it would only add the new ones. At least twice, though, it apparently decided that every photo was new, so "Last Import" contained everything, and "All Imported" now has 3 copies of the early photos, 2 of the middle ones, and the expected 1 copy of the last bunch. I haven't tried to isolate exactly what might be going on, but the iPad and the camera were the only devices - the SD card was NOT connected to a netbook, notebook, desktop, etc. during the trip.

  • Edited photos in iOS show original photo after import or in iPhoto for MAC

    If I edit a photo using the Photos app (or one the filter integrated now with Photos app) and then import that photo to my Mac (both using iphoto or import) or PC (both using import or with cloud photo integration), and sometimes if i try to view the photo using another iOS app, the photo display the original, unedited version.
    the only way seems to duplicate the picture or to send it by mail.
    but when you have hundreds of pics, that is not a solution any more..
    and most of all i don't even want to import both the original and the edited version.
    i found this issue in an apple support page: below the link..
    but that page doesn't offer a solution one most of all it says that iphoto shouldn't have the issue...
    can you help me?
    thanks

  • No monitor profile available. Yellow tint after import

    Hello. I have bough last week a new Toshiba notebook which has Windows 8.1 preinstalled on it.
    I have noticed a problem that seems other came also on the same issue. When i watch images on a non profile managed software, the images look fine. Once i import them on Lightroom or Photoshop, the images get a yellow tint.
    The problem and a possible solution is also described here: http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1164320 . This is setting the sRGB as a monitor profile. I know this is not a great solution, but surely better than what i see on my monitor. In any way, this unfortunately this did not work for me.
    This is what i mean with the yellow tint (left Lightroom, right Irfan)
    Today i tried following:
    Step 1
    The image is in RAW format. I import it in Lightroom and gets that yellow tint i described.
    I export it with sRGB in jpg format. The jpg file has still that yellow tint.  Please note here, that others that report similar problems, they mention that after the export they image looks again fine.
    Step 2
    I open the RAW image with Irfan (not color managed) and save it as jpg. The image is saved "correctly", as you see on the right side of the image above.
    Step 3
    I import the exported jpeg that was created with Irfan and import it to Lightroom.
    The yellow Tint now does not appear on the imported JPEG.
    One more tip i can give is: When i do a Soft proofing on Lightroom and choose sRGB i still see that yellow tint.
    What exactly is happening ? I try to identify the problem. Why i see just raw images with this yellow tint, no matter the profile i set for my monitor and no matter the proofing options on lightroom.
    I don't want to spend 100+ euro for a calibration device and not being able to use the profiles.
    Any suggestions for further testing ?

    First - Irfanview needs to be at least IV 4.35 and needs to have the LCMS.DLL plug-in installed as well as having the Color Management enabled so that you have some chance of your Photoshop and IrfanView versions of an image matching:
    Alright we have the first conflict here.
    I have the latest IrfanView version (4.37) , i saw that the Lcms.dll exists in the plugin list, and i have set the settings as suggested.
    Furthermore at the moment i have sRGB as my default monitor profile. Still this is how i see things.
    IrfanView and Photoshop have the same difference as before. Yes i have rerasted IrfanView on every change. I actually freshly installed also the latest irfanView version with its plugin.

    About this
    As you can see the Adobe default processing with the Adobe Standard profile, at top left, is a little greenish.  This is compared to the default camera processing as viewed in the camera-embedded preview jpg from the CR2 at the bottom right which a white frame around it.
    When i open the raw image on LR, i have (from what i can see on my monitor) the same results as your Adobe default processing (Top left) . What confused me on your image above is bottom left image "Adobe processing - Camera standard". What is with Adobe processing meant here? The camera profile? If yes then how can we have Adobe camera profil but also camera standart ? If you mean the process LR provides, mine is set on 2012. But no adobe available for selection. I do not know if this is meant though.
    Here is my comparison between Adobe Standart Profile and Camera Standard.
    LR: Adobe Profile vs Canon Standart Profile
    One more comparison is of the files you made available including the IranView jpg you supplied as compared to the Canon JPG preview that I extracted from the CR2 file:
    What you can see is that the CR2 as viewed in LR and LR's exported JPG of that CR2 look about the same (top and bottom left), and the IrfanView and Canon-JPG versions of the CR2 look the same (top and bottom right).  This is your IV version of the JPG, not something I made, but I expect IV has just extracted the camera-embedded fullsize preview JPG from the CR2 file just like I did using a different tool, so they look the same, but it is possible your IV is using a Canon-specific plug-in that uses the Canon-supplied SDK library DLLs that can also duplicate Canon processing.  I only have the Formats.dll and the CRW.dll but not all the extra SDK DLLs so I expect my IV is only extracting the camera-embedded preview JPG.
    Yes i can confirm that also on my environment. The exported CR2 from LR matches the  exported JPG as also there is a match between IrfanView CR2 with the Camera standard profile export. Unfortunately i cannot confirm if IrfanView uses a sort of Canon-plugin to make the RAWS rendered automatically with the Canon standard profile.
    And if you want your Adobe treatment of CR2 files to look much more similar to your camera's treatment, then use the Camera Standard profile in Lightroom and the PS ACR plug-in.
    Question on this. Should i always put a Camera Standart profile on all my images after importing them on LR ?
    Also please, let me know what you meant with Adobe Processing. I searched on the web with "Adobe Processing lightroom" , but i could not understand what is meant.
    If using the Camera Standard profile doesn't make things look almost the same, then please post a side-by-side of LR's view of the CR2 and IrfanView's JPG extracted from the CR2--what you've linked to, just above.
    Here is a comparison between an exported JPG from Lightrom with camera profile (Right) compared to an exported JPG with IrfanView from the RAW (left). As mentioned before the images look identical, with the one exported from LR with Camera profile being a bit more vibrant. But not much of a difference.
    IrfanView vs Camera Profile export
    So in the end it seems you see also that green-yellowish cast on the RAW image. From what i see on the screenshots you made.
    The question now is why i do not see RAW the same as Adobe software ? Could i do this test with an other viewer?
    To summerize from my side as well. A monitor calibration is surely good to do. On the other side the cast i see on the RAW in this case has not to do with the profile but rather with Adone profile and the way this image was captured.
    PS. I must admit that is one of the best on line support i have ever seen. Thumbs up ssprengel !

  • I am using version iPhoto'11. Since I installed this version I experience some difficulties. After importation of pictures I can see the pictures under Library/Pictures but not under Library/Events. However I can see the event and the number of pictures.

    Hello,
    I am using version iPhoto'11. Since I installed this version I experience some difficulties. After importation of pictures I can see the pictures under Library/Pictures but not under Library/Events. However I can see the event with the event title, the number of pictures and the pictures itselve as small thumbnails. BUt ounce I want to open the event to see the pictures in full screen the event title annouces 0 pictures and no pictures are visble anymore to mee. I have checked if the pictures are marked as hidden and this is not the case. What's going wrong. All the other events are visible in a normal way.
    The albums with the same pictures into them are visible.
    Thanks for your help,

    Make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and try the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - delete  the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder. 
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache files that are located in your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    Fix #2
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select options #1, #2 and #6.

  • Unlogged Missing Photos After Import From Aperture

    Hi!
    I have just made the switch from Aperture to Lightroom, and have use the 1.1 version of the Aperture import plugin.
    In my Aperture Library I have, according to the Library -> Photos: 11105 Photos, however after importing to Lightroom, I have only 10967 photos. I have checked the import log, and there were 4 items which failed to import - 3 were .mpo files (panoramas from an xPeria) and 1 was a .gif file. This leaves a deficit of 133 photos that I can't account for.
    Is there any way to compare the aperture library to the lightroom library to see what is missing?

    *WARNING* Once agin, this is a VERY long post! And this contains not only SQL, but heaps of command line fun!
    TLDR Summary: Aperture is storing duplicates on disk (and referencing them in the DB) but hiding them in the GUI. Exactly how it does this, I'm not sure yet. And how to clean it up, I'm not sure either. But if you would like to know how I proved it, read on!
    An update on handling metadata exported from Aperture. Once you have a file, if you try to view it in the terminal, perhaps like this:
    $ less ApertureMetadataExtendedExport.txt
    "ApertureMetadataExtendedExport.txt" may be a binary file.  See it anyway?
    you will get that error. Turns out I was wrong, it's not (only?) due to the size of the file / line length; it's actually the file type Aperture creates:
    $ file ApertureMetadataExtendedExport.txt
    ApertureMetadataExtendedExport.txt: Little-endian UTF-16 Unicode text, with very long lines
    The key bit being "Little-endian UTF-16", that is what is causing the shell to think it's binary. The little endian is not surprising, after all it's an X86_64 platform. The UTF-16 though is not able to be handled by the shell. So it has to be converted. There are command line utils, but Text Wrangler does the job nicely.
    After conversion (to Unicode UTF-8):
    $ file ApertureMetadataExtendedExport.txt
    ApertureMetadataExtendedExport.txt: ASCII text, with very long lines
    and
    $ less ApertureMetadataExtendedExport.txt
    Version Name    Title   Urgency Categories      Suppl. Categories       Keywords        Instructions    Date Created    Contact Creator Contact Job Title       City    State/Province  Country Job Identifier  Headline        Provider        Source  Copyright Notice        Caption Caption Writer  Rating  IPTC Subject Code       Usage Terms     Intellectual Genre      IPTC Scene      Location        ISO Country Code        Contact Address Contact City    Contact State/Providence        Contact Postal Code     Contact Country Contact Phone   Contact Email   Contact Website Label   Latitude        Longitude       Altitude        AltitudeRef
    So, there you have it! That's what you have access to when exporting the metadata. Helpful? Well, at first glance I didn't think so - as the "Version Name" field is just "IMG_2104", no extension, no path etc. So if we have multiple images called "IMG_2104" we can't tell them apart (unless you have a few other fields to look at - and even then just comparing to the File System entries wouldn't be possible). But! In my last post, I mentioned that the Aperture SQLite DB (Library.apdb, the RKMasters table in particular) contained 11130 entries, and if you looked at the Schema, you would have noticed that there was a column called "originalVersionName" which should match! So, in theory, I can now create a small script to compare metadata with database and find my missing 25 files!
    First of all, I need to add that, when exporting metadata in Aperture, you need to select all the photos! ... and it will take some time! In my case TextWrangler managed to handle the 11108 line file without any problems. And even better, after converting, I was able to view the file with less. This is a BIG step on my last attempt.
    At this point it is worth pointing out that the file is tab-delimited (csv would be easier, of course) but we should be able to work with it anyway.
    To extract the version name (first column) we can use awk:
    $ cat ApertureMetadataExtendedExport.txt | awk -F'\t' '{print $1}' > ApertureMetadataVersionNames.txt
    and we can compare the line counts of both input and output to ensure we got everything:
    $ wc -l ApertureMetadataExtendedExport.txt
       11106 ApertureMetadataExtendedExport.txt
    $ wc -l ApertureMetadataVersionNames.txt
       11106 ApertureMetadataVersionNames.txt
    So far, so good! You might have noticed that the line count is 11106, not 11105, the input file has the header as I printed earlier. So we need to remove the first line. I just use vi for that.
    Lastly, the file needs to be sorted, so we can ensure we are looking in the same order when comparing the metadata version names with the DB version names.
    $ cat ApertureMetadataVersionNames.txt | sort > ApertureMetadataVersionNamesSorted.txt
    To get the Version Names from the DB, fire up sqlite3:
    $ sqlite3 Library.apdb
    sqlite> .output ApertureDBMasterVersionNames.txt
    sqlite> select originalVersionName from RKMaster;
    sqlite> .exit
    Checking the line count in the DB Output:
    $ wc -l ApertureDBMasterVersionNames.txt
       11130 ApertureDBMasterVersionNames.txt
    Brilliant! 11130 lines as expected. Then sort as we did before:
    $ cat ApertureDBMasterVersionNames.txt | sort > ApertureDBMasterVersionNamesSorted.txt
    So, now, in theory, running a diff on both files, should reveal the 25 missing files.... I must admit, I'm rather excited at this point!
    $ diff ApertureDBMasterVersionNamesSorted.txt ApertureMetadataVersionNamesSorted.txt
    IT WORKED! The output is a list of changes you need to make to the second input file to make it look the same as the first. Essentially, this will (in my case) show the Version Names that are missing in Aperture that are present on the File System.
    So, a line like this:
    1280,1281d1279
    < IMG_0144
    < IMG_0144
    basically just means, that there are IMG_0144 appears twice more in the DB than in the Metadata. Note: this is specific for the way I ordered the input files to diff; although you will get the same basic output if you reversed the input files to diff, the interpretation is obviously reversed) as shown here: (note in the first output, we have 'd' for deleted, and in the second output it's 'a' for added)
    1279a1280,1281
    > IMG_0144
    > IMG_0144
    In anycase, looking through my output and counting, I indeed have 25 images to investigate. The problem here is we just have a version name, fortunately in my output, most are unique with just a couple of duplicates. This leads me to believe that my "missing" files are actually Aperture handling duplicates (though why it's hiding them I'm not sure). I could, in my DB dump look at the path etc as well and that might help, but as it's just 25 cases, I will instead get a FS dump, and grep for the version name. This will give me all the files on the FS that match. I can then look at each and see what's happening.
    Dumping a list of master files from the FS: (execute from within the Masters directory of your Aperture library)
    $ find . -type f > ApertureFSMasters.txt
    This will be a list including path (relative to Master) which is exactly what we want. Then grep for each version name. For example:
    $ grep IMG_0144 ApertureFSMasters.txt
    ./2014/04/11/20140411-222634/IMG_0144.JPG
    ./2014/04/23/20140423-070845/IMG_0144 (1).jpg
    ./2014/04/23/20140423-070845/IMG_0144.jpg
    ./2014/06/28/20140628-215220/IMG_0144.JPG
    Here is a solid bit of information! On the FS i have 4 files called IMG_0144, yet if I look in the GUI (or metadata dump) I only have 2.
    $ grep IMG_0144 ApertureMetadataVersionNamesSorted.txt
    IMG_0144
    IMG_0144
    So, there is two files already!
    The path preceding the image in the FS dump, is the date of import. So I can see that two were imported at the same time, and two separately. The two that show up in the GUI have import sessions of 2014-06-28 @ 09:52:20 PM and 2014-04-11 @ 10:26:34 PM. That means that the first and last are the two files that show in the GUI, the middle two do not.... Why are they not in the GUI (yet are in the DB) and why do they have the exact same import date/time? I have no answer to that yet!
    I used open <filename> from the terminal prompt to view each file, and 3 out of my 4 are identical, and the fourth different.
    So, lastly, with a little command line fu, we can make a useful script to tell us what we want to know:
    #! /bin/bash
    grep $1 ApertureFSMasters.txt | sed 's|\.|Masters|' | awk '{print "<full path to Aperture Library folder>"$0}' | \
    while read line; do
      openssl sha1 "$line"
    done
    replace the <full path to Aperture Library folder> with the full path to you Aperture Library Folder, perhaps /volumes/some_disk_name/some_username/Pictures/.... etc. Then chmod 755 the script, and execute ./<scriptname> <version name> so something like
    $ ./calculateSHA.sh IMG_0144
    What we're doing here is taking in the version name we want to find (for example IMG_0144), and we are looking for it in the FS dump list. Remember that file contains image files relative to the Aperture Library Master path, which look something like "./YYYY/MM/DD/YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS/<FILENAME>" - we use sed to replace the "./" part with "Masters". Then we pipe it to awk, and insert the full path to aperture before the file name, the end result is a line which contains the absolute path to an image. There are several other ways to solve this, such as generating the FS dump from the root dir. You could also combine the awk into the sed (or the sed into the awk).. but this works. Each line is then passed, one at a time, to the openssl program to calculate the sha-1 checksum for that image. If a SHA-1 matches, then those files are identical (yes, there is a small chance of a collision in SHA-1, but it's unlikely!).
    So, at the end of all this, you can see exactly whats going on. And in my case, Aperture is storing duplicates on disk, and not showing them in the GUI. To be honest, I don't actually know how to clean this up now! So if anyone has any ideas. Please let me know I can't just delete the files on disk, as they are referenced in the DB. I guess it doesn't make too much difference, but my personality requires me to clean this up (at the very least to provide closure on this thread).
    The final point to make here is that, since Lightroom also has 11126 images (11130 less 4 non-compatible files). Then it has taken all the duplicates in the import.
    Well, that was a fun journey, and I learned a lot about Aperture in the process. And yes, I know this is a Lightroom forum and maybe this info would be better on the Aperture forum, I will probably update it there too. But there is some tie back to the Lightroom importer to let people know whats happening internally. (I guess I should update my earlier post, where I assumed the Lightroom Aperture import plugin was using the FS only, it *could* be using the DB as well (and probably is, so it can get more metadata))
    UPDATE: I jumped the gun a bit here, and based my conclusion on limited data. I have finished calculating the SHA-1 for all my missing versions. As well as comparing the counts in the GUI, to the counts in the FS. For the most part, where the GUI count is lower than the FS count, there is a clear duplicate (two files with the same SHA-1). However I have a few cases, where the FS count is higher, and all the images on disk have different SHA-1's! Picking one at random from my list; I have 3 images in the GUI called IMG_0843. On disk I have 4 files all with different SHA-1's. Viewing the actual images, 2 look the same, and the other 2 are different. So that matches 3 "unique" images.
    Using Preview to inspect the exif data for the images which look the same:
    image 1:
    Pixel X Dimension: 1 536
    Pixel Y Dimension: 2 048
    image 2:
    Pixel X Dimension: 3 264
    Pixel Y Dimension: 2 448
    (image 2 also has an extra Regions dictionary in the exit)
    So! These two images are not identical (we knew that from the SHA-1), but they are similar (content is the same - resolution is the same) yet Aperture is treating these as duplicates it seems.. that's not good! does this mean that if I resize an image for the web, and keep both, that Aperture won't show me both? (at least it keeps both on disk though, I guess...)
    The resolution of image 1, is suspiciously like the resolutions that were uploaded to (the original version of) iCloud Photos on the iPhone (one of the reasons I never used it). And indeed, the photo I chose at random here, is one that I have in an iCloud stored album (I have created a screensaver synced to iCloud, to use on my various Mac's and AppleTVs). Examining the data for the cloud version of the image, shows the resolution to be 1536x2048. The screensaver contains 22 images - I theorised earlier that these might be the missing images, perhaps I was right after all? Yet another avenue to explore.
    Ok. I dumped the screensaver metadata, converted it to UTF-8, grabbed the version names, and sorted them (just like before). Then compared them to the output of the diff command. Yep! the 22 screensaver images match to 22 / 25 missing images. The other 3, appear to be exact duplicates (same SHA-1) of images already in the library. That almost solves it! So then, can I conclude that Lightroom has imported my iCloud Screensaver as normal photos of lower res? In which case, it would likely do it for any shared photo source in Aperture, and perhaps it would be wise to turn that feature off before importing to Lightroom?

  • Can not refresh snapshot changes after importing data of master site

    Hello !
    I have two database computer,one as master site,one as snapshot site.Because the error of the hard disk of master computer,I use the exporting data file to recover my database.after importing ,I found I can't refresh the refreshgroup on snapshot,who can tell me why?
    thinks in advance!
    (exp system/manager full=y inctype=complete file='/home/save/backdata/xhsdcomp.dat')
    (imp system/manager inctype=system full=Y file='/home/save/backdata/xhsdcomp.dat'
    imp system/manager inctype=restore full=Y file='/home/save/backdata/xhsdcomp.dat')
    null

    You haven't listed the errors that you're receiving when attempting to refresh your refresh group, but if your snapshots are attempting to fast refresh, I suspect it's because the creation timestamp of the snapshot log on the master site is newer than the creation timestamp of the snapshot. In this case you will need to do a complete refresh of the snapshot (or drop and recreate the snapshot) before you will be able to fash refresh it again.
    If this is not the case, please post the errors you are receiving when you attempt to refresh the refresh group.

  • Apex Application not working after importing to my apps schema...

    Hi friends,
    I created one DB application in my sample schema that is associated with apex 4.0.....
    Application details:
    *) login page(where i will be giving username and password)
    *) page 1 (consist of several form fields, like
    --->name:
    --->module:
    --->projects:
    ----->email:
    the above are the fields, if i put any entries in the above field means, it will get automatically inserting in the report column, which is also in the same page consist of the above fields in the table manner...
    since this report table consist of an edit icon in front, if i clicked the edit icon of an one row means, it will go to another page..
    *) i.e. page 3(consist of the same fields with entries in it automatically corresponding to the each and every row, suppose if i want to update any changes means i can update in it....
    this is my application that i developed it is working well with in the sample schema apex 4.0..
    What i did is i created a new workspace with APPS schema in it...and i have imported my application that i developed in sample schema to APPS schema....
    Since after importing to APPS schema...when i tried to open the application, it is not showing any datas in it...That is due to the tables that are supporting the application is not in APPS schema, so what i did is i have given grant privilege to the respective tables and also i have created a synonym for accessing the table in APPS schema for supporting the application.....
    Now if i tried to put any entries in the form in page 2, it is getting inserting in the report column which is also in the page2....
    But my problem starts here, if i clicked the edit icon symbol in each and every row of the report column it is going to the page 3 which has a respective form fields, but it is not showing any entries in it automatically, and if i tried to put any entry in it, it is not getting updating in the report table......
    why this problem occurred for my application in APPS schema....But my application works very well within the sample schema......why it is not showing any entries in the form automatically soon after i clicked the edit icon in each and every row.....
    i couldn't know what is the real problem behind this..... help me friends.
    As this is my urgent requirement in my project..Reply me ASAP...
    Thanks in Advance..
    Regards,
    Harry...

    First, try a system reset although I can't give you any confidence.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • Problem on CLOB datatype after import

    I got problem and call to Oracle support and they use DUL for extract data from datafile to dump file and I import everything is done and no error but when I check in CLOB datatype that have space(blank character) separate each character see below
    Original
    Oracle
    After Import
    O R A C L E
    So the application cannot execute those data.
    Anyone have solution how to fix this problem?
    Thanks,
    Taohiko

    if you use a direct insert you are restricted to 4000 characters.
    You can put your value in a varchar2 variable and that allows you to insert up to 32767 characters.
    declare
    my_clob_variable := rpad('x','X',25000);
    begin
    insert into my_table(my_clob_column)
    values(my_clob_variable);
    end;

  • My imported backup html files from another computer do not show up after import

    I am currently transferring files from my macbook pro to a pc netbook. I already exported my firefox bookmarks via an external drive and accessed the html file on my new netbook. After importing the html on firefox on my new netbook, the bookmarks do not show up on my bookmark list.

    Please see this article on how to move your bookmarks and settings from one computer to another: [[Moving your Firefox bookmarks and settings]].
    Caution: Restoring bookmarks from a backup will overwrite your current set of bookmarks with the ones in the backup file.
