Export from iPhoto 08 with sequential filenames retaining iPhoto order?

Is there some way to export photos from iPhoto 08 with filenames that will be seen by the Finder (or a PC) as having the same order as the photos in iPhoto? I used the Sequential Filenames option in the Export pane to export a 1790 image album, but the sequence numbers were assigned as 1,2, 3, .... , 1790. That is ordered in the Finder, or on a PC, as 1, 10, 100, 1000, 1001, etc., and when my son displayed them using his Play Station 3, that is the order in which they came up. If the sequence numbers were assigned as 0001, 0002, 0003, ... , 1790, I would expect the files to retain the desired order, but I can't find a way to accomplish this.

Yes there is. Put the photos in an album, sort them as desired, go to the Photos->Batch Change->Title to Text with the checkbox ticked to add a sequential number.
Next, export those sequentially retitled photos using the File->Export->File Export menu option with the format set to JPG and theFile Name set to Title. This will give you what you want.
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. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. 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.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Transfer photos from CD with OS9 software into iPhoto

Here's the deal. I am able to do this, but it takes a long time with a lot of steps, hence, how do I ... or more importantly, can it even happen ... set up an automation.
I use to get photos on cd from seattle film works. I want them in iPhoto. The way I am able to do this now is:
insert cd
start OS9
run a bit of software called Photoworks to open the photos
Save As ... JPEG or PICT, but I have to manually change file name so it ends with .jpeg or .pict as opposed to .sfw (seattle film works) ... in another file
import these saved files into iPhoto.
So I know This can be done, but the question is, can I automate it?
thanks

I've now got the job done. Basically, transferring photos taken on film, from CD's the company sent back with the photos, to iPhoto.
I was able to run the old software I had transfered from my last Apple computer.
I should note that the company themselves, or I should say, the current owners of the original company, did email me back with the same advice you did.
Thanks,
Jesse

Export from Organizer with watermark?

Is there any way to include a watermark in files that I export from the PSE 11 Organizer or is Process Multiple Files in the Editor the only way to add a watermark? Thanks.

You can watermark the files in Editor using a brush. This is not a batch process.
First you have to make the brush with the information to be applied. Here is a tutorial:
http://graphicssoft.about.com/cs/photoshopelements/ht/psewatermark.htm
Once you have the brush, you apply the information with a mouse click. Of course, the brush size
can be altered, the color of choisce can be selected, and you can apply in a suitable location on the picture. It's a good way to do it.
I suggest that if you want to have files both with, and without, the watermark, that you save as, and name them appropriately. You could save them in an album in organizer for export.

Exporting SuccessFactor document with defined filename

Hello,
We are looking for a document or procedure on how to define the file naming convention for documents that will be exported from success factors.
for example we want the file to be exported using Archive&Print option: ARICKES-FY2012 Performance and Development Plan–12345–01.01.2013.pdf. Where first seven characters are userid, separated by '-' then file name and finally the date of the document.
I read an article and it was suggesting configuring MDF (Metadata framework) but if anyone has configured this, kindly let me know how and where to configure this in success factors.
Thanks for your help in advance.
Regards,
Praveen

Hello Luke,
Thank you so much for the response. This was very helpful for performance documents. We are also looking for file naming settings for recruting. I looked into recruiting and it does not show form template setting for recruiting.
Kindly let me know if there is any other different file naming setting for recruiting.
Thanks for your help in advance.

How to export Keynote presentation as images that retain their order

When I build a Keynote presentation that I then export as images to show in photo album Keynote exports the slides as sequentially numbered images. When the images are uploaded to the iPad the order becomes random. Any one know a way to force the iPad to display the images in the desired order?

weblizard,
You can choose File > Print and then choose from the Print output options, including Slides, Slides with Notes, Outline, and Handout. You can also modify the Print outputs from the Options column on the right.
Then on the bottom left of the Print dialog box, you will see a PDF button. Click on that button for options, including Save to PDF. This will create a nice PDF the selectable text and can include the slide for recognition and recall, as well as copy and paste into other applications.

What format is the goflex drive?
Pulled my iphoto library from my mac and put it on my goflex drive
How did you backup
Is that copy and paste, drag and drop, how? And did you "pull" the iPhoto library intact as a single entity?
how did you restore
Did you drag the iPhoto library to the pictures folder, import it, how did you do the restore
Remember we only know what you tell us and exact details are critical to being able to understand your positiona nd be able to help you

Why jpeg file exported from Aperture with 300 dpi's it opens with 72 dpi's on PS ( image size)? I've tried several combinations and all give different results. And I am confused on what is the best workflow for me.

Ok.
My workflow is
RAW > Aperture Library > export jpeg high resolution 300 dpi's > one file on PS > edit > Save us jpeg. The I realised that files from PS were being save in a smaller size from the ones exported form Aperture. That is when I went o see <image size> on PS and files were with 72.
Since ten I've trying different things
1. Aperture > export as PSD > open on PS > edit > Save us jpeg = small file (around 15 MB)
2. Aperture > export as jpeg high resolution 300 dpi's > open on PS > CHANGE dpi's to 300 on <image size> edit > Save us jpeg = big file (Huge, actually)
What am I doing wrong? Would someone give me guidance and tell me what is the best workflow, considering I edit photos to deliver to my clients and I shall give them 300 dpi's.
Thank you

Cannot Delete photo Albums from iPad. Exported in from iTunes on PC (with XP). iPad does ot show as a device. Sync/bakcup works.

Wow!
I thought it might be worthwhile to put your useless piece of excrement up and let everyone enjoy it at least one more time.
Had you read "... that monster..." you might have twigged to the fact that what they are talking about is in fact how it's done and, contrary to your claim, those that answered do in fact know, and did answer the question. The fact that you don't know is understandable, the fact you're too lazy or uncaring to do anything on your own regrettable, and the fact that people are wasting time responding to you very much a one-time thing.

1080p export from FCE with Canon 60d

I'm shooting 1080p 30fps on my Canon 60D DLSR. Everything imports fine and I can edit the footage without issue. However, I have been working with video effects and noticed that the videos I'm outputting are heavily interlaced. When I view the rendered footage in the Canvas, it looks great with no apparent interlacing. But when I export the video, it seems to be exporting it in an interlaced format and when there is fast motion, it looks terrible. Can someone review my settings and let me know where I'm going wrong? In Easy Setup I don't see a 1080p option, so I've selected one of the others.
Easy Setup:
AVCHD-Apple Intermediate Codec 1920x1080i60
Export Settings:
MP4
H.264
Data Rate: 5000kbits/sec optimized for Download
1920 x 1080 HD Letterbox
Frame Rate 29.97
Key Frame every 24 frames
192kbps audio
Thanks!!!

DJ,
It looks like the OP is about six months old, but I would have to ask how you are getting the clip from the 60D into FCE and what codec is. The 60D records in H.264 which is not compatible with FCE (just taking a guess as to where you should begin looking).
If you post your sequence settings and your clip properties maybe someone can get a better understanding of what the full issue is.

Export from table with SQLDeveloper 4

My Oracle instance 10G is unicode (AL32UTF8) and I have some tables inside with multilingual content in columns (greek, polish by example)
SQLDeveloper access to the instance trough jdbc thin
With the previous version of SQLDeveloper (before 4) I made Table Export as xml, csv and sql files. As result I had the right charcaters in the export files and I was happy...
Now, with SQLDeveloper version 4 all multilingual characeters are replaced by ?. That means wrong characters conversions are occured
Bug ?

I don't think this is a good protection: you can have these characters in VARCHAR anyway, and this way you "throw the baby out with the bath water". Not mentioning that right now also immune formats like HTML are also limited.

How do I export from Aperture to iPhoto?

Ok, I am very new at all of this, and find it quite confusing.
I took several hundred raw photos and imported them into Aperture. I believe they are all in a 'project', the yellow box looking icon? Then, I created numerous folders inside this project, in which I carefully sorted all my photos by subject - about 18 folders. Then, I worked with each folder, fine tuning each image, and adding exif metadata, and rating each image. So far so good.
Now, I want to bring all this images (as full size jpegs) into iPhoto.. this is where I am getting bogged down. There is an export function in Aperture, and an import function in iPhoto: which do I use?
I have been experimenting with various scenarios, but nothing seems to be working the way I want.. specifically, to have all my images in iPhoto - IN THE SAME STRUCTURE as I have in Aperture. When I did manage to bring them into iPhoto, they all came over in one big massive event, leaving all my sorting and ratings behind. This can't be right.. I don't want to resort them all again, moving them into the appropriate folders. And I don't want to have to re-enter the exif metadata and ratings again.
Can someone please help me with this?

Export from Aperture and then import to iPhoto.
Alternatively, you can share your Previews with iPhoto but that gets only the Preview.
FWIW: your workflow makes no sense. It's like writing your novel in TextEdit then opening it in Word to Spell Check and then copying it back to TextEdit. Why not just write your novel in Word? Aperture is not an editor. It's a complete replacement for iPhoto. It will do everything that iPhoto does, and then more. Or if you want to stick with iPhoto, get an editor and use it as an external editor in that.

Exporting a QT with multiple channels?

Curious... Am I able to export / create a QT file with multiple audio channels embedded?
I've a project with multiple tracks of audio. Now, of course, I know how to "pan" a track left / right to create a project with discrete tracks.
But, what if I have multiple tracks (vo, sfx, and STEREO audio.) Is there a way to create QuickTime file (exported from FCPX) with MORE than TWO audio tracks? For example, can I create a file with mono'd VO on one track... mono'd SFX on another... THEN... stereo music on two separate tracks? (for a total of four tracks.)
Please advise, and thanks.

dastoelk wrote:
Luis, many thanx!!!! You mind posting a quick screen shot showing the setting for "Roles as Multitrack Quicktime Movie?" Again... awesome!
No problem!
Here it is. Note that you can create as many audio tracks as you want, and they can each correspond to one or more roles (or sub-roles).
In the example, three audio tracks will be created, one each for Dialogue, Music, Effects; but you can do any combination of roles and/or sub-roles as you please.

Which Metadata option when exporting from Aperture?....

When Exporting a single Original (never edited) CR2 file from Aperture 3.6 to my Desktop there are 3 Metadata options :
1) - Don't include IPTC
2) - Include IPTC
3) - Create IPTC4XMP Sidecar File
As I have no idea what 'IPTC' etc is, which option is best to later Import into Capture One, please?

IPTC are all Metadata you assigned in Aperture or in other applications, as opposed to the EXIF metadata embedded in the photos by the camera. The camera tags would be in the EXIF.
The get an idea, what is in clouded in EXIF and IPTC, open the Inspector in Aperture in the sidebar and switch the view to "IPTC info". That will show you a list of all tags, that will be included, when you export from Aperture with IPTC included.
You can only export modified versions with IPTC, since Aperture will not modify the original file on export. That is why you can add a sidecar files, that lists all tags, and many applications are able to read this sidecar file, when you import photos.
I want the camera EXIF data to be exported with the image file.
The camera EXIF are already embedded in the original image files. When you export the originals, the EXIF will be included, independent of your setting for IPTC.
You can test, what will be exported, by opening exported files in Preview and opening the Inspector (Tools menu > Show Inspector)
You can see all EXIF and IPTC tags that have been exported with the photo.
