Export List of File Name with Faces Identified

I'd like to export a list from Aperture, into any file format - Words, Numbers, rich text, MS Word, MS Excel, anything!!
The list would show the file name and all the faces identified in that file.
My daughter is in her High School dance team. I've taken more than 1000 photos. Here is is the end of the season and I'd like to distribute the photos among the dancers/parents. They don't have the software or care to take the time to sort through the pics to figure out which photos they are in. I'd at least like to give them a list of photos so that can find the ones
Faces can be a helpful feature (though I hate all the file versions all over the place in iPhoto and Apeture).
I've read that Faces is not stored in the metadata of the file. I've tried to export metadata, but not much comes out other than the standard file size, camera settings, etc.
Easier to describe the situation, I guess, but would be helpful for many photos with people (weddings, parties, reunions, genealogy photos ...)
which is Faces is supposed to be about, RIGHT???
I guess a work around could be exporting the files from the identified faces. That seems like it would just junk up more storage/memory. I guess you could use a file list  naming app and then delete the exported files - that just seems stupid.
I expect a little more from a souped up version of iPhoto for $79. Especially if I have Adobe Creative Suite with Bridge. If Apple wants to give a little shove to Apple, and bring novice users from looking for a non Apple solution, I think this would be an EASY no brainer.
Thanks anyone who has a solution of a decent work around.

Dear Kirby, Thank you so much for your reply.
I'm familiar with Metadata. I've worked with Canto Cumulus and Filemaker.
I guess a more important question - where is the Faces data stored?
I'm looking to export a text version by file name, such as in a spreadsheet. Something like this
File Name     PhotoFile_01.jpg     PhotoFile_01.jpg     PhotoFile_03.jpg
Faces ID'd    Nina Totenburg        Carl Kasel               Tom Ashbrook     
Faces ID'd    Carl Kasel                Peter Sagel            
Faces ID'd    Terri Gross               Terri Gross              Nina Totenburg
Faces ID'd     Renee Montaigne    Tom Ashbrook
OR
File Name                    Face 1               Face 2          Face 3               Face 4
PhotoFile_01.jpg         Bob Braun         Tina Fey        Andy Warhol
PhotoFile_02.jpg         Leah Jones       Beyonce        Tina Turner      Dave Matthews
PhotoFile_03.jpg         Lisa Liu            Geena Davis
Anything that would identify the faces in a photo to a text file ....
Yes I understand that most of the IOS software is supposed to make it easier for the new and less techie user. But if you are going to create all these versions and mini files for the photos, why not make them accessible to a power user. I'm not a coder, but I've been using macs for 25 of my 40 years.
What gets me is that you go to the trouble of identifying all the Faces. What is Faces really supposed to help you with?
I mean Facebook is better at face recognition than this. Don't go on a tangent - about this - just sayin'.
Thanks for your time!

  • Export file names with Face name?

    There doesn't appear to be a way to do this from what I can tell but I figured I'd ask. I'd like the export photos so the name of the file is the person's name. Possible?

    You can export a file, so that the version name is used as the filename for the exported file. So you would have to open each Faces stack and rename the versions in this with a custom name preset, where you add the name of the person to the custom name.
    A lot of work.
    If you export the an image version with a named face, Aperture 3.5.1 will add the name as a keyword to the exported file. Perhaps the keyword will suffice for your purpose?

  • List of file renditions with CIS API

    Can anyone tell me how to get a list of file renditions with their related info (file type, file size, etc) through the CIS API? This would be similar to the web function
    http://localhost/idc/idcplg?IdcService=RENDITION_INFO&dID=599&dDocName=EDAM000231
    for example. I cannot find anything in the API that allows me to look up the renditions.

  • To display the list of File Name in a report region from a Directory

    Hello All,
    Can any one guide me in displaying the list of file name from a file system directory in a report region with link?
    On click of the link it should display the open/save dialog box.
    I will appreciate the early solution. (It is bit urgent)
    Thanks,
    Shyam

    A quick, "dirty solution would be to have a cron job (I am assuming you are on a UNIX-based system) that populates a file periodically with the names of files in a directory/directories. Then have an external table that points to that file. You can then create an Apex report that lists the contents of the external table.
    1) crontab job:
    ls -1 /source_dir/* > /destination_dir/file.list
    2) create external table:
    CREATE DIRECTORY filedir AS ' destination_dir ';
    GRANT READ ON DIRECTORY xfer_files TO public;
    CREATE TABLE file_list_ext (file_names VARHCAR2(100))
    ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL
    TYPE oracle_loader
    DEFAULT DIRECTORY files_dir
    ACCESS PARAMETERS
    records delimited by newline
    fields terminated by ','
    missing field values are null
    (file_name)
    LOCATION ('file.list')
    REJECT LIMIT UNLIMITED;
    3) create APEX report on table: file_list_ext
    Hope this helps.

  • How do i get a list of file names in to a new folder?

    Hi,
    Does anyone know if there is a way of having a list of  image file names, searching for the images then putting them into a new folder?  I'm guessing it can probably be done through mac scripting but I know nothing about scripting and genreally not great with technogy so ideally need step by step instructions!!
    If anyone can help I would really appreciate it!!
    Ruth

    Without details about your workflow and folder set up, I can only give you a generic script, but this should at least get us started.  test it and see what needs to be tweaked.
    -- set paths to source and destination folders
    set imageSourcePath to POSIX path of (choose folder with prompt "Choose a source folder.")
    set destinationFolder to POSIX file POSIX path of (choose folder with prompt "Choose a destination folder.")
    -- get file names from text file: assumes one name per line.
    set fileNameTextFile to (choose file with prompt "Choose a file list text file." of type "public.plain-text")
    set fileNames to paragraphs of (read fileNameTextFile)
    repeat with thisFileName in fileNames
      -- replace each file name with an alias to that image file
              set contents of thisFileName to POSIX file (imageSourcePath & thisFileName)
    end repeat
    tell application "Finder"
      -- using 'duplicate' because I assume you want to make copies rather than move files
      duplicate fileNames to destinationFolder

  • Export html - Image files names

    Hi,
    I'm trying to create a project with an image (map of Italy) that highlight any region on mouseover (rollover).
    Everything is fine, and when I preview on firefox it looks great.
    Problem is that when i export it (export with images in a folder), it creates some strange names of these files (ie: no title_r1_c1_d1), that is not recognized by other html softwares (joomla).
    Is there any way to export these file names with another name?
    The project is really long and it would be impossible to rename these files when the have allready been exported, so I need to find a solution to tell fireworks to export them in a right format.
    Thanks in advance

    I'd suggest looking at the Export options (in the dialog that appears after choosing File > Export). For instance, maybe it would help to deselect "Include Areas without Slices".
    In addition, you could experiment with the HTML Setup options (by clicking the Options button in the above dialog or by choosing File > HTML Setup). For example, in the Document Specific section, there are file naming options for slices.
    Sorry, but there are a lot of variables and unknowns in what you're describing, and it's hard to narrow down what's happening. These are general suggestions.

    I tried to do the instructions Adobe gave me but when
    I put in the disc that came with my mac and hold down
    C when it restarts it takes me to the screen to do a
    fresh install.
    At that point go to the Menu & select Disk Utility - I can't remember exactly which menu but you should be able to find it easily... there isn't too much there
    I went into the disk utility through the Apps folder
    and for somereason the option to repair isnt
    highlighted and it wont let me click it. I tried to
    repair permissions/verify but it doesnt change
    anything. I looked at the info and it says the volume
    can be repaired, but it wont let me.
    You can't Repair the disk the system is currently running the OS from - That's why you have to boot from the Installer disk (or some other start-up disk). Repair Disk addresses directory structure issues - totally separate from what Repair Permissions does.

  • File name with Dateand time stamp.

    Hi All,
    I want to generate a file with a date and time stamp.
    For that in File Receiver adaptor i am using option "Add Time Stamp" in File Construction mode. however it is generationg file name as: FileName_20082104_121211_645.txt . In this I don't know what these last three characters "_645" are? And In the File name i only want a file name with datetime stamp . I don't require underscore in between. for eg: FileName_20082104121211.txt (FileName_dateTime.txt)
    Can anybody suggest me the way to achive this?
    Thanks,
    Atul

    @FileName_20082104_121211_645
    The date time stamp in XI's file adapter will be in that format. This is to avoid over writing of files created simultaneously at the same time. So the last 3 digits is a form of an unique id to distinguish between the same.
    In case you want the format as FileName_20082104_121211, use the dynamic configuration and create the file name inside the mapping itself and pass it across.
    To get an idea about the same, ref:
    /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/11/10/xi-the-same-filename-from-a-sender-to-a-receiver-file-adapter--sp14 - an usage of the same.

  • MimeBodyPart.getFileName() returns file name with directory path.

    Hi
    The documentation says getFileName() returns filename ,not including directory components. But it is returning
    path like Eserv generic/mails/a.html. Can it return a full path in some mail servers?
    Please respond.
    Thanks

    The documentation says getFileName() returns filename ,not including directory components.I think you must be misinterpreting the documentation. Where did you read that?
    The getFileName method returns whatever the sender sent as a file name. The send should
    send only a simple file name, with no directory components, but they can send anything, and
    you should protect against abuse before using such a file name.

    Hello all,
    currently I had problem to match the following file name with the date time. Of course I can use this regex like ""(\\\\w&#43;|.&#43;).(zip)" to match it.That regex doesn't make a lot of sense:
    - with "\\\\w" you probably meant "\\w";
    - "\\w&#43;|.&#43;" doesn't make sense: you can simply do ".&#43;" in that case;
    - ".(zip)" will also match the string "%zip" or "Ezip".
    However in the current application i need to parse the file name and get the current date time to check if it is matched. I don't know what you mean by that.

  • Encoding failed in "file name" with error: -43

    Hi!
    I've tried everything but still, after about 20 hours of encoding DVD Studio Pro just stoppes, saying "encoding failed in "file name" with error: -43". The movie is in DV PAL format and made in Final Cut Pro version 5. I'm using DVD Studio Pro 4.0. The movie is about 1 hour and 30 minutes long and I'm trying to put it on a double layer DVD. I've tried to shorten it (it was nearly 2 hours before), but that didn't help. I also tried to shorten it even more and put it on a single layer DVD, but still the same message.
    So if somebody has any idea of how I can solve this problem, please let me know as soon as possible!
    Thank you!

    Error -43 means "File not found." If you are compressing from a reference movie, make sure that all referenced movie clips are present on the disk and that permission settings are not preventing DVD Studio Pro from accessing them.
    Error -1309 means "Out of bounds." This means that the source file is pretending to be bigger than it actually is.
    So it sounds like there are issues with your source movie.
    P.S. Compressor has a much better MPEG-2 encoder and I would recommend using that instead.
