Extracting jpeg's from LR when missing originals.

Hi,
I've crashed 2 harddrives and they can not be recovered. It's been a 2 week long horror fest.
Most of my photos were imported into Lightroom and I can still see the previews. But the originals are, of course gone. I've researched and see that LRViewer has helped people extract jpeg's from Lightroom (lower res) but this application is not working for me. I even tried applying it to previews where the originals ARE on my harddrive and it still won't work. Message reads: Can't find previews SQlite database.
anyone have another way of doing this??? Please!!!
I'm using Lightroom 3.0!!!
There must be a way...

Are you sure you're opening the catalog with the "[catalogname] Previews.lrdata" right next to it? LRViewer won't work if you open a backup catalog, which does not have the preview folder next to it.
It works fine for me with an LR3 catalog.

Extracting JPEG files from Adobe Lightroom previews

I need to figure out how to extract previews from Adobe Lightroom as JPEG files. I am trying to develop an external app that will read Lightroom's plugins - I need to do it in either C++, C# or Java. So far all examples I found were in Lua. Any help/code examples would be greatly appreciated.

I think he is looking for C/Java code, not a script/plugin.
In any case, anybody looking to recover previews should be aware that most plugins or external apps DO NOT assign a proper ICC profile to the extracted previews. The extracted previews are *usually*, meaning NOT ALWAYS AdobeRGB, but untagged: will be interpreted as sRGB. Yeah, that's why they will look different than the original.
I don't know about JF's plugin.
(Adobe's recovery script does NOT handle ICC profiles correctly).
PreviewExporter is the only plugin I know of that handles ICC profiles properly - if anybody knows how JF's plugin handles ICC profiles - do tell.
Note: PreviewExporter includes source code - it should be straight-forward to translate to C/Java.

hedger,
How do you expect anyone to help when we don't know a darned thing about the file, abut your setup, exact version of Photoshop and your OS, machine specs, etc.?
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
Note that this is boilerplate text.
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too.

Extracting JPEG preview image from DNG file

My company is using the DNG SDK to support raw or DNG files for users of our digital asset management software. We extract a jpeg preview/thumbnail from ALL file types we support.
My question is: how can we extract a jpeg preview from a DNG file, using the latest version of the DNG SDK?
Currently, our software uses the SDK to read a DNG file and write a tiff file, and passes the tiff to imagemagick to get a resized jpeg we can use for a preview or thumbnail.
When we extract the tiff from the customer's file, we get a base version of the image that does not show subsequent colour adjustments made in (eg) CS3; the customer would like to get a preview that shows (especially) the colour adjustments that have been made.
I know the jpeg preview exists inside the DNG, I used exiftools to extract it,and it does show the colour adjustments made.
How do I get that preview image out of the DNG file using the DNG SDK? Does the DNG SDK support that operation?
The SDK has a lot of API, but not much documentation or samples to show usage.
Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

Maybe it isn't the smartest way, but this should work: ... call info.Parse (host, stream) etc here - the usual stuff { // find biggest jpeg image for preview unsigned int subMaxW=0; int subMaxI=-1; for(unsigned int i=0;i<info.fIFDCount;i++) { dng_ifd* pIFD=info.fIFD[i].Get(); if (ccJPEG==pIFD->fCompression && 1==pIFD->fNewSubFileType) { if (pIFD->fImageWidth>subMaxW) { subMaxW=pIFD->fImageWidth; subMaxI=i; } } } if (subMaxI>=0) // load desired jpeg preview { unsigned int i=subMaxI; dng_ifd* pIFD=info.fIFD[i].Get(); if (ccJPEG==pIFD->fCompression && 1==pIFD->fNewSubFileType) { // seek to pIFD->fTileOffset[0] and load jpeg } } }

Hi,
I look at the transaction ST22 to see which type of error has given you. Take a look at the notes to correct the error.
Another option is to look at OSS notes, because the error is giving you a standard extractor.

Missing version field in response from server when accessing resource

I put my problems down to my application server (Orion) as other people seem to have this working. The deployment in Orion keeps the original timestamps of the jars, so I explicitly set the timestamps in my build so that the unchanged jars do not have to be downloaded all the time. This is not really a good solution, so maybe someone else can give further advice.

When extracting SD data from R/3, err in tRFC raised that "No service for."

Hello fellows,
when I'm extracting SD data from R/3, an error raised about IDOC that "No service for system SAPSB2, client 100 in Integration Directory", and there is no work processing working in the R/3 system, could anybody help? Thanks!
Jennifer

Hi,
You are extracting Data from ECC, so here no way related to XI, I think, the problem is with Parner Profile and IDoc settings, so chek it in WE20.
or
take IDoc nos from BW-->RSMO (in the detailed tab bottom you can find OLTP IDoc nos) and then goto ECC, BD87 and give that IDoc and check,
And also check in WE05 what is the Idoc Statu, this is connection problem only, so check with BAsis team.
Thanks

Icon previews missing on jpegs saved from Safari

This did not happen in Tiger and Safari 2. I always saw the icon preview of any jpegs dragged from a safari window to, say, the desktop ... now, in Leopard, I get the generic Photoshop symbol (jpegs are pref'd to open in PS). I can only get the icon preview of the image if I resave it in PS.
It's little thing but, it's frustrating as jpegs from the web usually have generic file names, so the preview comes in very handy for me. Yes, my view options are pref'd for icon preview. Thanks for your hep.

Hi Tim
I'm curious why dragging an image from the web to your desktop creates a jpg file with a Photoshop icon. OS X natively assigns this action to Preview. Either you previously changed the jpeg "open with" assignment in either in Leopard or prior to Photoshop, or a 3rd party application did it for you?
As I posted, if I drag an image from Safari to the desktop, the image icon appears rather than a generic icon. Here's the image file appearing on my desktop:
Here's a screenshot of that file on the desktop:
If I open the info panel to that file, this is what I see:
When you open the info panel, do you see an image in the Preview section or a generic icon?

Messages Sent With .Jpeg's From Mail-Receive On PC's,Smaller Than When Sent

We seem to have an issue when we send .Jpeg's from Mac Mail, all our systems are up to date and are all very new.
*Basically when we drop a pic from desktop into a new mail message in Mac Mail and/or create a new mail message from iPhoto with an attached image from iphoto, it shows up fine in the message body and is at full resolution e.g Very Large.*
*After sending the mail to a recipient on a PC, the recipient receives the message in their mail program ( something like outlook ) and when they view the message it shows up as a small .Jpeg embedded*
And when I mean small its small like almost unreadable.
Any one got any ideas ? - I dont want to send emails as plain tex, only rich tex cause we have html signatures that need to look cool.
Cheers.

Why would I want to change JPEG quality of photos when exporting them from iPhoto?

Why would I want to change JPEG quality of photos when exporting them from iPhoto? Changing the quality of the print changes the size of the saved file and thus impacts the speed at which it is moved on the internet. But other than size of the file, what is the advantage of changing the quality?

I have no idea why you would want to do anything
Some people want lower quality to reduce file size for different reasons
It is an option - if you do pot want to do that do not use that option

Thanks for including all your code. I've ran into version download problems before also. In the jar reference don't include the actual __V.jar file name, just include all pre __V.jar. <jar href="AddLogic_v1.0.jar"/> would become <jar href="AddLogic.jar"/>. Now I haven't done it with the version.xml before I just did it with making file named *__V.jar.
I just re-read all that you did, if you title your files with the __V.jar notation you don't need a version.xml file.
<jar href="SimpleGUI_v1.0.jar" version="1.0"/>
Should become
<jar href="SimpleGUI.jar" version="1.0"/>
And you would have SimpleGUI_v1.0.jar on your server. Also might need it to be a capital "V" not sure.

Apple reminders do not disappear from "all" and "missed" view when dismissed from "today" view of notification center by marking the circle by the reminder. why is this?

Firstly, I really like the new reminders in iOS 7. However, I noticed that apple reminders do not disappear from "all" and "missed" view when dismissed from "today" view of notification center by marking the circle by the reminder. it requires me to take an extra step and click on "all" and then click the "x" to make it completely disappear and clear from notification center.
why is this? am i doing something from?

unfortunately, that does not address my question. your link describes how to clear the missed section of center. I know how to clear the missed section of notification center, as I said in the original question. I will re-peat my question to clarify. it is:
apple reminders do not disappear from "all" and "missed" view when dismissed from "today" view of notification center by marking the circle by the reminder. it requires me to take an extra step and click on "all" and then click the "x" to make it completely disappear and clear from notification center.
why is this? am i doing something wrong?
the behavior I would expect would be that when i click the circle on the "today" view. it would clear it out from the missed and all view so i would not have to clear in 2 areas.
I Hope this clarifies...

Extract thumbnail images from a cache file without originals?

After an external drive crash, I'm left with only the Bridge (CS2) cache files for a folder full of images. Does anyone know a way to extract the thumbnails from the cache as jpgs or some other standalone format when you *don't* have the original image files? They would be low-res, but better than nothing. Thanks in advance.

>>says that this export technique does not work, it produces a low res screen version of the file.
Are you certain the original files were any better?
My preferred method of doing this works well, but it takes a few extra steps. I'd make a high-res PDF out of the PM file, then pick apart the PDF to extract the graphics. Are the graphics raster or vector? If they're raster, you can use Acrobat's Touch-up Object tool to open them in Photoshop. If they're vector, you can open the PDF in Illustrator and save out the graphics from there.
