Embedding tags in files for viewing and searching in other software

Hi,
I'm a bit confused about how tags are associated with files. I recently transferred all my photos to a new computer and lost some, but not all, the tags I had added to my photos within Elements Organiser. I am in the process of archiving all my old family photos by scanning slides, negatives and prints. I'm working on a Windows computer. Most are being saved as TIFFs but I also have JPEGs and RAW files. I want future generations of my family to be able to search these photos by using first name tags for example. They may not have Photoshop. My daughter uses a Mac and different software.
I see that under the File menu there is an option 'write keyword tags and property info to photo'. Will this save this info so that it can be found and searched in other types of software? If so, does this apply to all types of photo files?
And another quick similar question - when I change the date of the photo under the thumbnail in Organiser is this saved to the file?
Thnaks for any help you can give me.

I think you are confusing the value and purpose of JPGs vs TIFFs vs RAWs.
You always (that's always) save your originals. These are either the photos straight out of the camera, or straight out of the scanner. You may choose to make other versions of these photos for other purposes.
So ... keep your originals. Keep your edited versions. When you need to send photos to somewhere else, you can make JPGs of them, and send them (after which time you could delete the JPGs if you want). If space is a problem, the generally accepted wisdom is that hard disk space is cheap, that 1 terabyte hard drive are well under 100 dollars US; so the optimal strategy is to get extra hard disk space rather than delete the originals.
Regarding the codecs that enable you to see the RAW photo thumbnails in Windows: these will NOT allow you to see the edits you make in ACR/PSE. Nor does it help to allow you to search for keywords in DNG files. You have hit upon a disadvantage to using DNG versus RAW; if you use RAW, the tags get written to a sidecar (text) file, and these are searchable using Windows. If you use DNG, the tags are embedded into the DNG file, and are not searchable using Windows (although somewhere in the back of my mind, I thought I had heard that you can configure Windows to search for tags in DNG files, but the details, if this is true, escape me).

Cannot preview filetype please download the file for viewing and garbled text on a downloaded image

Dear Madam or Sir,
When I click on a file titled "Subject Access Request Letter re Account Number 12527629 Sort Code 60-10-34 24022015.pdf", which is stored in my Account on Acrobat.com I get the response "Cannot preview filetype please download the file for viewing". This file was created from an OpenOffice .odt document of the same title. Please advise.
I downloaded an image, which purports to be a .pdf, from the Royal Mail Track & Trace web facility using my Samsung S5. The text that I expect to see might as well be hieroglyphics for all its similarity to text. Please advise.
Regards,
Ron Platt
PS I have tried to attach both files (.pdf) but am advised "That image type is forbidden". Please advise.

Hi Laura,
I have found the solution to be:
   1. Not to upload to "Document Cloud" from the .pdf stored on my PC and
   open on screen.
   2. To login to Acrobat.com from the .pdf stored on my PC and open on
   screen, select "Document Cloud" and the sub-folder required and then upload
   the file
I have a feeling that there is a glitch somewhere, because after I have
opened a number of .pdf files stored on my PC, and irrespective of whether
I have closed them prior to opening the next .pdf file or left them open,
Acrobat Reader will display (Not responding) in the window title bar. The
"number of files" equates to less than 10. I, then, click on the X at the
right of the window title bar and I am given the option of "Close the
program" or "Wait until the program responds" (or words to that effect). If
i choose the latter, nothing happens and I am back at the unhappy status
quo. If I choose the former, I am told that Windows is searching for a
solution, which it never finds. I, then, have to shut down the PC and then
start it up, again. Clicking "Restart" does not solve the problem.
I have described the above before and received the usual "it cannot be
Acrobat, it is perfect" response. I could, I suppose, screenshot/snip every
sequential screen but why should I have to when I have described the
sequence as fully as I can. So I have found a "workaround" that does not
solve the "Not responding" problem but does solve the problem of not being
able to upload from the open .pdf file to the sub-folder in "Document
Cloud". I am, on occasion, working through the myriad of .pdf files that
are in the root folder of "Document Cloud" and putting them in the correct
sub-folder(s).
I have today read that Google is starting a cellphone service in the USA in
which a monthly "access" rental (US$20) is paid plus a GB capacity usage is
elected for at a rate specified, e.g. US$10.00/GB. If the subscriber does
not use the elected GB capacity Google refunds the US$value of the unused
elected GB capacity.
Suggestion: Adobe applies that kind of policy to its online software
package usage rates, e.g. I elect to subscribe to a particular level of
online software package usage monthly, but, if I do not use all of the
programs included in that online software usage package, I am credited back
for not having used the softwares, that I did not use, that were inclusive
in that online software package offer.

Ron

Open file for reading and allow access by others

How can I open a file for reading and still allow others to access (read and write) the file? I plan to keep this file open for the duration of my program and close it at the end. However while my program is running another program will need access to the file so it can write to it. I may be wrong, but I dont think that setting the appropriate permission will solve the problem... Thank you for your time.

hi jmcbee,
I think as long as "readers" open a file as "ReadOnly", then the OS (at least Windows) will allow another process to open and write to the same file without a problem. It's been a while since I've done this - maybe 7 years - and I may have opened the "writer" first, though doubt it makes a difference.
Have you tried?
Cheers!

Search file for text and delete the found text. How?

I need to know how to search a file for text and delete the found text. I think grep will let you do this but not sure of the syntax.

Hi Dmcrory,
   In addition to what Camelot and nobody loopback point out, one must also consider the fact that UNIX text tools are largely line based. You also fail to tell us for what kind of text you are searching. If you are looking for multiple words, there's a very good chance of finding the expression wrapped onto different lines. With hyphenation, even single words can wrap to multiple lines. Tools that search line-by-line will miss these unless you use multiline techniques.
   Multiline substitutions require that you write "read-ahead" code for the command line tool that you're using and that you take that into account in the substitution. Given how you want the results to be printed out, you may also want to preserve any newlines found in the match, which is even more difficult. That could bring up the subject of line endings but that's a completely different topic.
   I apologize if this sounds discouraging. Multiline searches aren't needed that often and in most of those cases, exceptions can be dealt with by hand. I just didn't want you to get surprised by it. To give you an idea of how easy basic substitution is, have a look at Tom Christiansen's Cultured Perl: One-liners 102 and One-liners 101. Both have some "in-place" substitution examples.

When we go for Views and Function Modules for Generic Extraction

Hi Experts,
Can you please explain when we go for extracting the data using Views and when we got using Function Modules using Generic Extraction from R/3 system to BW with examples. And also can you explain when we go for delta for the above both scenarios.
Thanks for you help in advance
Rohith

Hi,
Scenario for Extarction using FM
Imagine the scenario where you need to extract data from
tables having no common field between them and thereby preventing you from creating a view on top of those tables..
Or simply consider tables that are highly unrelatd in terms of fields, but you have a requiremnt to extract data from them.
Also Refer.

Convert .fla files for Safari and Chrome

hi boys,
i need to convert .fla file for Safari and Chrome.
i pay for that, after new file is tested, and is ok.
the fee is 40$/file

I'm afraid you have quite a few html errors on the page I tested (about us page) that really need to be fixed - and some of them are likely the cause of the browser rendering the pages differently.
http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.newpathstherapy.com%2Fabout.h tml
For example, you can only use an ID once per page.
Also a few CSS errors: - in particular the first one - where you have the missing # hash tag before the color declaration. The others relate to the styleing of the scrollbar - which isn't worth the effort really because is a PC IE only thing anyway:
http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?profile=css21&warning=0&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww. newpathstherapy.com%2Fabout.html
I think you have 'overwritten the code for the menu.. particularly the way you have used the IDS - which is causing an issue anyway. The menu can be made more simply and minimally styled with css - see this list of styling list menus:
HORIZONTAL / VERTICAL MENUS:
http://css.maxdesign.com.au/listamatic/
You need to fix those errors and then see how the page stands. If you have further problems after the 'fix', then post back.

How can I Create a Client Configuration File for RemoteApp and Desktop Connection with Server 2012?

I have a working RDS RemoteApp site and looking to test out the feature in Windows 7 Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\RemoteApp and Desktop Connections
I came across this link: Create a Client Configuration File for RemoteApp and Desktop Connection and I believe this is what I need to do first, but these instructions are for
Server 2008, and I'm running 2012.
Any suggestions or tips on how I can begin testing this with Server 2012?

Hi,
You can manually enter the path to the 2012 feed and it will connect and download the RemoteApps and Desktop connections.

How to create a positve pay file for ACH and Wire transfers through F110

Hi All,
I need to create a positive pay file for ACH and Wire transfers to the bank for auto clearing. For checks we have a standard program (RFCHKE00) to create the positive pay file which creates the output lists after the F110 payment process. Is there any standard SAP program available which creates the Positive pay file (Output list) for ACH and wire transfers through F110.
Thanks
Sridhar

Please let your abaper create a 'Z' program using RFCHKE00. For example 'ZRFCHKE00' and use it in the same way as you currently use RFCHKE00 for checks.
After the program is created, use SE38 and save it as a variant using your own specifications. Thereafter, in F110, when carrying out a payment run, under 'Printout/data medium', enter the program name under "Lists" with the variant. Then click on 'Maintain Variants' and make the necessay specifications there as well.
Instruct your end-users to enter this program when running ACH and wire transactions through F110.
Please let us know if this information was helpful.
Thanks,
Elias

How to change the parameter 'Default Servers To Use For Viewing And Modification' using java api dynamically.

Hi,
I need to change the Crystal Reports setting 'Default Servers To Use For Viewing And Modification' to a particular server.this i need to do using java api.
could you pls provide me the sample code for this.
Regards
Srinivas

The IReport interface extends IViewingServerGroupInfo interface, that allows you to specify the server group.
The choice selection for that interface is as follows: 0 = first available, 1 = prefer the selected server group, and 2 = only use the selected server group.
The server group selection is by the SI_ID for that server group InfoObject.
