Filing by date in folders hierarchy

Hi, I have mess in photos. I want export folders hierarchy that in first level of subfolders are years (from exif data) and in two level of subfolder are original folder's name. I can't find this option.

Folders are how you OS organises files, not how LR works. LR uses metadata, collections etc. The folders are only shown so you know where the original files are located. You can rename and move folders around in Lightroom.
You can also create new folders when exporting images files for use outside of LR.
If you want to use LR to create a collection based on years within the exif data you can create a smart collection and select capture date as the defining factor.
Screen shot attached shows how to create a smart collection that will automatically include all files with 2008 as capture date in the Exif

Where can I find a tutorial about Show Folders Hierarchy?

I have Permiere Elements 11 which also has the Elements Organizer as part of the program. And I have Photoshop Elements 10 also. The Elements Organizer with the video editing program is what I'm interested in though. I think my folder hierarchy is not right. I'd like to straighten it out but I don't know how. Can someone direct me to a tutorial on how to work with the Folders Hierarchy.
This might be a different question, but it might be related to my confusion about the Folder Hierarchy in the Organizer. On June 10 I was copying some photos from my hard drive to the Organizer - probably a dumb thing to do. While I was doing this, the Pictures folder (View and organizes digital pictures) no longer took me to all my photos on the hard drive. The Pictures folder is under Personal Folder, Documents, Music, Control Panel on the Windows 7 desktop to the right of the Start Menus stuff.
When I click on Pictures now I get two folders: Adobe and Pictures. The Adobe folder has these values - Size: 0 bytes; Contains: 0 Files, 1 Folder; Created: Monday, June 10, 2013; Attributes: Read-only (only applies to files in the folder. I deleted the Abobe folder several times but it keeps coming back.
What I would really like to do is to restore my Pictures folder to its original state so that I will have access to all my hard drive photos immediately instead of clicking around in those folders. I vaguely think that something I did to the folder hierarchy in the Optimizer has messed up other things on my computer.

You wrote, "So if you moved the files, what you need to do is move them back..."
I don't know how to do this. Could you tell me how. I moved about 50 photos into the Organizer. Now I know I should not have done this. I'd like to correct the mistake.
When I click on the Show Folder List icon this is what I see:
My Pictures
     Pictures
          Faces
               Clowns
     My Videos

              E
              F
              G
This makes no sense to me. But I could live with it - except perhaps something I did has made my PrE11 impossible to work with. When I put new clips via the memory card into the program, they do not go into the Timeline. All I get is an error message.
I like the Adobe programs and don't want to give up on them, especially since my problems probably have been self-imposed.

How to delete entire data in the hierarchy table,?

Doubt in Generic data sources for hierarchy & text

Hi All,
I have a couple of doubts as mentioned below.
1 . Why we canu2019t generate generic data source for hierarchy?
2. While creating Generic datasource for text there is one more option is available i.e. "Extraction from domain"
what is domian please explain .
Thanks & Regards,
Saurabh Bansal

Hi,
1.We can't maintain Hierarchies in ECC, Because the Database design of the OLTP system is based on ERM(Entity Relationship Model),i.e Tables are connected via Primary and Foriegn key relationships, Whenever we need 1: Many connection divide the data in different tables,connect them using the primary and foriegn key relationships.
2. Domain will provide the technical properties of the Field of the R/3 table.
for Eg: length,data type of the field.

How to merge two Mail folders hierarchy ?

I've got two Mac. On both I use Mail app. I've created many folders and sub-folders to sort my emails on each of them.
This folder hierarchy is not exacly the same on each Mac.
I wish to merge these two folders hierarchy in order to have the same folder hierarchy and mails on each Mac.
Is there a way or a soft able to do that 'cause I can't do that manually (too many mails and folders)
Example : if a mail 'A' has been put into a folder X of the first Mac,and a mail 'B' has been put in a the same folder on the second Mac, I want to have mails A & B in the same folder X on each Mac. if a folder exists on first Mac, it must be created on second Mac. etc etc
Any idea ?
thanks

Don't try to merge or replace the System Folder & Library Folder on the new install of Yosemite. You will corrupt your operating system. If someone told you to do that, they are idiots.
I would assume you have booted into the new install of Yosemite and created a new user account on it already. Options would depend on if the old user account has the same name as the one you just created.
Easiest thing for you to do at this point is to copy your documents from the external drive from your old user account to the new user account. And, just reinstall any applications from scratch.
Other people may be able to give better advice on what you need to do. But maybe give a bit more info.
Be specific on what you have done so far as to any changes you've made so far.
What was the old system you were running? Did you clone the old system to the external, or just copy folders?
Also, what do you need from the external drive? Documents can be copied easily. iPhoto Libraries, iTunes Libraries, Mail, etc. are a bit more complicated.

List "Folders" hierarchy by date instead of alphabetically?

I would love to get the left panel in Lightroom 5.4 to show my folders in order of their name, creation date, modification date just like you can do with the OSX Finder or the Explorer in Windows but can't for the life of me find where to change this. Is this functionality in Lightroom?
I find myself opening my folders in OSX Finder, listing the folders by date to see what I named the folder from last week, then opening Lightroom and navigating through the folders on the left to the one I need. I can see how to list the photos in the center panel by date, but with up to several hundred RAW files in each folder it takes a LOT more time to scroll through the photos in Lightroom and then click "Go to Folder in Lightroom".

So I am assuming Lightroom doesn't have this ability? Too bad, and it's strange too as every other photo editing/organizing piece of software I've used has this functionality
Lightroom was not designed to be a file browser, and it was not designed to contain all of the tools of other software ... it was designed to be different and to contain its own set of organizing tools which are very powerful, if you learn how to use them.
Organizing is a combination of mental processes and software tools, and when those mental processes and software tools are not "compatible", as seems to be your case, then you will find that things don't go smoothly. WHen your mental processes and software tools are "compatible", then Lightroom works very smoothly.
You must have a good memory to remember five to ten folder names a day over several weeks... that's about 75-100 folder names a month... beyond most folks abilities.
I don't remember folder names, and I said I don't use them to help me find my photos. My photos get keywords that describe the content, and that is my suggestion to you. You could take your 5 weeks of photos, in hundreds of folders, and give them basic keywords at import (since you have to import the photos anyway). From there, it is a very simple task to find just those photos that have the desired keyword(s). Certainly no harder than giving the folders individual names in the first place. But no matter how you slice it, if you've got hundreds of folders, there is going to be a certain amount of work on your part to make them "findable", whether you use folder names or keywords or some other tool. And if you can't remember the hundreds of folder names (then you can't remember the keywords either), then there's the problem, it's not Lightroom.
If you MUST rely on a date based search, then you either need to use your operating system, or change the way you name the folders so that they contain a yyyy-mm-dd date before the descriptive name, such as "2014-06-13 California" so then they will sort properly inside of Lightroom. But since I abhor date-based organizing, and I love metadata based organizing, I do not recommend this, I would still go for keywords. Instead of creating hundreds of folders during your 5 week trip, instead of putting these 50 photos into folder A, and the next 112 photos into folder B and so on, I would leave them in a single folder (or a few large folders) and assign them keywords instead of putting them into folders (there are freeware programs that will allow you to assign keywords to photo, just as simple as creating folders). Then finding them in Lightroom becomes no problem, the keywords are read when you import them into Lightroom.

Data Modelng with hierarchy??

Hi Gurus,
I am working with Infosets and many of these infosets have the following joins below. EngMDlNbr to Product Code to Summary product Code and Product main group
All these Master Data are loaded from flat files.
Product Hierarchy:
Char 1: EngMdlNbr:
       1. EngMdlNbr
          2. Product Code
       3. Many othe characteristics
Char 2: Product Code
       1. Key-Product Code
          2. Summary product Code
Char 3: Summary Prod Code
       1. Key-Summary product Code
          2. Prod Hierarchy level
       3. Product Main Group
Char 4: Product main Group
       1. Key-Product Main Group
          2. Prod Hierarchy level
Please clarify whether the performance of the queries will improve if I reduce these Joins by building
1) Hierarchy at Product Code and include (Summary Prod Code and prod main grp) or
2) By including Summary Prod Code and prod main grp as Attributes in Product Code Characteristics.
If I use Hierarchy, how will I load the data with hierarchy information.
Please advice.
Thanks and Regards
Andy

Hi
Just check how the component hierarchy is maintained because if hierarchy maintained properly then your report will come out properly.
When transaction data coming from ECC hierarchy key filed contains your parent and child relationships.

Import folder structure. Incorrect date on folders.

I'm trying to import a bunch of jpg photos taken in 2006 and 2007 to my Aperture 3 library. I use a referenced library in my pictures folder and I would like the files to be copied to new folders named after the year, month and day they were taken. However, each time I try to import these photos some are placed in a folder named 2001, while some of the files actually end up in folders named after the right year. According to the meta data of the photos they are all taken in 2006 and 2007. I tried re-importing the same photos a couple of times and each time a different number of my photos end up in a folder named 2001. It's very annoying and I would be very grateful if someone could help me solve this issue!
Anton

Hi Anton. A possible work-around. Import as you have been doing, then select all of the imported Images in Aperture and run "File→Relocate Masters ... " using the setting "Subfolder format: Image Year/Month/Day". I have started seeing similar failures to properly file Referenced Masters on import. Re-filing them from within Aperture has put them all in the right Finder folders.
Please report back with what you find out. I have no idea what is causing the problem.

Linking relational data to folders in XMLDB Repository by using metadata

Hi,
We want to use the XML DB Repository to store documents (PDF, Word, etc) belonging to customers, dossiers of customers, invoices of customers, etc. To accomplish this we are thinking of a folder hierarchy with the first level being customer folders, the second level dossier / invoice folders and within each of these folders the relevant documents / other folders. When querying a customer by sql, we want to determine the correct folder in the repository by storing the primary key of the customer row as user meta data to that folder. After this we get the folders and documents under this folder with the under_path function. Some folders represent a dossier / invoice folder and with this folder the primary key of the dossier / invoice is stored via meta data. While querying these folders by using sql we want to retrieve additional info which is stored in the relational tables: Customer info within a customer table, dossier info within a dossier table, invoice info with an invoice table, etc. Theoretically all available info must be retrieved, so this info preferably must not be stored as metadata (only the primary key and type to these rows and tables).
My question: Is this the right way to go or are we going to face problems with this architecture? Is there a need to store all info as metadata or can it be done as I describe? So we want to link info from different tables to folders / documents in the repository. Because each folder can have metadata pointing to different tables we are facing (even with a small data set) performance issues. Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,

Here's an example, tell me if this is what you need.
Setup : the following creates a table to store a specific type of metadata, two folders, and finally creates a resource (JPEG image) and its associated metadata :

2    character_id   number(6)
3 , character_name varchar2(80)
4 , origin         varchar2(80)
5 , category       varchar2(30)
6 );
Table created.
SQL> declare
2    res boolean;
3 begin
4    res := dbms_xdb.CreateFolder('/ComicBooks');
5    res := dbms_xdb.CreateFolder('/ComicBooks/Characters');
6 end;
7 /

5    res            boolean;
6
7 begin
8
9    /* Create the resource from the image file*/
10    res := dbms_xdb.CreateResource('/ComicBooks/Characters/' || v_img_name, bfilename('TEST_DIR', v_img_name));
11
12    /* Create the metadata in the dedicated table */
13    insert into character_metadata (character_id, character_name, origin, category)
14    values(1, 'Odie', 'Garfield', 'Dog')
15    returning character_id into v_metadata_id;
16
17    /* Add the pointer in the resource as user-defined metadata (non schema-based) */
18    dbms_xdb.appendResourceMetadata(
19      '/ComicBooks/Characters/' || v_img_name
20    , xmltype( '<cm:CharacterMetadata xmlns:cm="http://mycompany.com/ComicBooks/Characters"><cm:id>' ||

Question about data file folders in Numbers

I have created a Numbers spreadsheet ot create acataluge of my books. The file is simply called Books.numbers.
I now find on my desktop two folders - Books.numbers.sb-be4ae974-2tdLVg and Books.numbers.sb-be4ae974-A7nKNd. The former has sub folders called Data, Index and Metdata. The other has a Metadata dubfolder and several Preview.jpg files.
What are these folders, and do I need to kepp them. Doe sNumbers always create such folders?
Thanks

GF,
You may have a third party app on your system that automatically expands zIp files. If so, this app could be causing this problem because a Numbers document is in fact a Package file that appears to be a compressed file to some programs.

Applications, data and folders structure question

I am new to the Mac OS X and wish to setup my folder structure correctly in a multi-disk environment (Mac Pro). I have 2 drives at the moment and plan to add more.
I assume that I should boot the OS from a separate OS disk and put apps and data on different disks. I also understand that Mac OS X uses a structure which includes a "users" folder in the root directory, application folder in root dir and "home" folders located in the "users" folder for various users which contain data.
Is this correct? How do you structure this over several disks? Do you move the "users" folder and or application folders to a different drive or partition? What are considered to be the best practices in that regard?

I never found putting any applications on another drive helps, even with multiple 15K drives.
I would invest in a faster drive for your system though.
And yes, it can help to use 2nd drive for the user account(s)
System control panel "Accounts" - unlock, command + control + click on the account's name and you can set the location of where it is...
/Volumes/volname/Users/acccount
Just copy or move or set up the folders (Users, and "myaccount") on the drive or partition of drive.
Also, you may want to have a scratch disk or partition, and a media drive or for editing.
