First experiences with LR 5.0: manual file selection and  Adjustment Brush

I must admit that I have not fiddled too long with LR 5.0. The reason is quite simple: its extreme slowness, even in comparison with 4.4, which is far from being fast. After slightly retouching some 40 images I fell back to 4.4 and finished testing 5.5 for a while. Anyway, in addition to the speed problem I have collected some - also not too promising - experiences:
After initially retouching the first image I wanted to copy some of its settings into the rest of the photos. Before clicking on the Sync button I had to select all the target files. Probably because of the relatively small number of images, instead of going to the "Edit / Select All" function I used "Shift+Right Arrow" for the selection. LR simply crashed...
In several cases I was not able to re-open and modify formerly 'adjustment-brushed' areas. When I moved the cursor above the relevant white 'knob-shaped' mark, nothing happened. The cursor did not even change to hand form, so the "Effect" panel remained dark and the formerly set parameters did not come up. As I kept the cursor there for ages and the image was not 'over-adjusted' (as also indicated by the small size of the associated XMP file), this failure was surely not a result of the above-referred slowness.
Once I selected an already retouched image, with the Adjustment Brush tool open. The existing adjustment mark came up over a formerly brushed area. Then, without doing anything with the open image, I moved to the next picture. To my surprise, the Adjustment Brush marks of both photos appeared on the last opened image - the one, which belonged to the previous picture and another, associated with the second picture. It goes without saying that I was not able to click on any of the Adjustment Brush marks. Closing and re-opening the Adjustment Brush tool did not help, so I had to restart LR.

  • HT1577 how do a get a refund on a ridiculously slow downloading rented movie for my apple tv dispite a 5mb/sec down load speed? my first experience with appletv movie rental. no good. rented at 4:30pm. still waiting for standard def movie to finish at 8:1

    how do a get a refund on a ridiculously slow downloading rented movie for my apple tv dispite a >5mb/sec down load speed? my first experience with appletv movie rental. no good. rented at 4:30pm. still waiting for standard def movie to finish at 8:10pm. Not good enough.

    Thanks for the pointers folks. Yeah, 1.5GB is pretty poor isn't it? There are other suppliers, but you have to get a their phone line installed to access the internet so it's an £85 setup fee plus a day off work for a guy to come round and drill a hole in your wall before you even get to the monthly costs.
    Don't get me wrong though - I'm certainly not an Apple basher, but am equally frustrated with both them and the ISP.
    Virgin Media spend all kinds of money advertising their broadband as the fastest in the UK, but don't tell you (up front anyway) that you'll be cut off if you actually try and use it.
    Apple on the other hand carry on with their 'it just works' mantra, but with Apple TV this only applies if you meet certain criteria (again, not mentioned up front).
    I guess it aint a biggie, as i was gifted my Apple TV, and love all the other stuff it does, but from the number of posts on this forum can see that there's a lot of angry customers out there who want explanations as to why they're having similar problems to me.
    Will be very interesting to see if Apple release any kind of software update that turns the flash drive from a buffer to permanent storage, to at least ease some of the pain...

  • This my first experience with itunes and using a gift carddownloaded an album and only half of a few songs played before jumping to the next song

    This is my first experience with itunes and I chose to download a Mark Knopfler album. The first three songs stopped half way and instantly started the next song. How do I re-load the songs since i now "own" them? Thanks. Luce.

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • My first Mac and first experience with iPhoto.  Need help

    Hello everyone. I just purchased my first Mac, a Mini, last week and I'm trying to learn how iPhoto works. I've been able to import picturs from my NAS (network attached storage) drive which holds all our photos, music and videos.
    However, when I took pictures over the weekend, I wanted to put them on the NAS as well and have them automatically import into iPhoto. I like that iPhoto lets you put a description about the pictures, but I can't find a way to type a description and then set iPhoto to save the pictures to my NAS drive.
    I ended up just saving them to the NAS drive and then importing again and telling iPhoto to not import duplicates. The problem with that is I get folders called thumbnails and then I get messages telling me the Thumbs.db files are not readable and those are coming from my camera card or the NAS drive, maybe because it was formatted on a PC. I know Thumbs is a PC item.
    With my old PC, it allowed me to pick where I wanted my photos stored and what name I would like to call the pictures and then it named them all in succession automatically. Will iPhoto do this and if so, how do I do that? And how do I enter descriptions about my old photos to make them easier to find during a search?
    Thanks for the help. While the Mac is very similar to my old PC, there sure are a lot of things I'm unfamiliar with. But with time and some help from experts like you, I'm sure I'll get comfortable with it.

    iPhoto is a photo organiser - that is a database. Like any database the data has to be imported into the application.
    What format is that NAS? iPhoto does not sit happily on disks that are not formatted for Mac OS X (journalled). You will find issues with saving changes to the db and with sharing pics among other apps.
    You can put a library on an external disk:
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library Folder as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    With my old PC, it allowed me to pick where I wanted my photos stored and what name I would like to call the pictures and then it named them all in succession automatically. Will iPhoto do t
    No. For a start, filenames have no relevance in iPhoto - it's all about visual organisation. You can attach titles, keywords and comments to pics, of course, and can add them to the File on export.
    If you want to set the pics in a spot, then do that with the Finder and thereafter import them. You can use a batch file renamer such as FileList to rename the files prior to import.
    and telling iPhoto to not import duplicates.
    Using a Referenced rather than a Managed library means that iPhoto will not copy the files, but rather simply reference them on your HD. It will create an alias to the Original file, a thumbnail and, if you modify the pics, a Modified version.
    However, you need to be aware of a number of potential pitfalls using this system.
    1. Import and deleting pics are more complex procedures
    2. You cannot move or rename the files on your system or iPhoto will lose track of them
    3. Most importantly, migrating to a new disk or computer can be much more complex.
    Always allowing for personal preference, I've yet to see a good reason to run iPhoto in referenced mode unless you're using two photo organisers.
    As a general comment: iPhoto is a bit different from most photo apps. It's happiest when it manages the files and lets you go on to manage your Photos. That's a key distinction though, between Files and Pictures. iPhoto is about Pictures, not Files.
    You do all your work in the iPhoto Window - there is never a need to go into the Photo Library on the Hard Disk. To find and access photos:
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    To use an external editor
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
    By all means post again if you need more info.
    Regards
    TD

  • Somebody experience with writing data in Access file?

    I want to write my data in a Access file.
    Is it true, that I have to create a macro in the Access-file?
    I have no experience with macros. Can somebody tell me how I can do that?
    Has somebody an example?
    Thanks for help.

    No, you don't have to write a macro. I guess you're refering to the shipping example that uses DDE. Instead of DDE, you can use ActiveX. There have been several examples posted to the forum that use this to read and write from an Access database. There is also the Database Connectivity Toolkit from NI that uses ODBC/ADO/SQL to talk to any database. For a free utility, check out LabSQL from Jeffrey Travis at http://jeffreytravis.com/lost/download/.

  • Backing up with Time Machine via "Personal File Sharing" and Airport Disk

    I've been using Time Machine on my own Mac at home and want to use it to backup other Macs in my house as well. Right now I'm just backing up over FireWire, but plugging my disk into each of the other Macs one at a time doesn't seem to make much sense.
    Besides going out and buying a Time Capsule, Leopard Server, or Xsan, what are my options for backing up multiple Macs to one disk? I've read that using an Airport disk is somewhat risky because of some "premature file transfer confirmation." Has anyone ever used Time Machine w/ Airport Disk and had problems?
    I've also noticed that you can back up to shared drives, like if I share my current FireWire disk so people can back up to it, but wouldn't that require for people to connect to the host Mac manually via Finder? And wouldn't that in turn defeat the purpose of automatic scheduled backups?
    Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.

    the only supported option besides Time Capsule is to back up to a hard drive directly connected to a mac running leopard on the same local network. as you mention it would indeed require that this drive be mounted first. you can automate mounting this drive on login and simply keep it mounted at all times. to do that mount the drive of the host Mac on a remote mac and while it's mounted there add it to the login items in system preferences->accounts.
    You can also use drives directly attached to an airport extreme base station. that works in the same way as backups to a Time capsule.

  • Issue with Clone Tool and Adjustment Brush in LR5.3

    If I export a .TIFF from LR5.3 in which I've used the Clone Tool or Adjustment Brush Tool and then load the .TIFF up in Photoshop CS2 to perform further edits, I can't save the file to a .JPG - I get a '...program error...' message during the save.  If I turn off the tool and export the file from LR5 again, I can do the edits in Photoshop and save it as a .jpg.  The same thing will happen in Capture NX2 trying to save the LR5 exported .TIFF to .JPG.    Has anyone else experienced this and are there any workarounds?

    ***UPDATE*** 3/7/14
    Apparently no one has experienced the issue as I posted above, but in case anyone is interested, I have discovered a workaround.  For some reason, the issue manifests itself when I export the TIFF with the option 'Metadata - Include All Metadata'.  If I change the Metadata option to the 'Copyright Only' or 'Copyright & Contact Info Only' I am able to open the TIFF in Photoshop, make edits as needed, and then save as a JPG.  Apparently LR5 is doing something weird with the Metadata file header that Photoshop and Capture NX2 doesn't like under certain circumstances.

  • First experience with sound problems in Arch

    Hi everyone. Just did a fresh install and pacman -Syu so everything should be up to date. Installed alsa-utils and made sure Master and PCM were unmuted. My goal here is to create a headless PC that interfaces with my radio, in order to use digital modes like RTTY and PSK.
    EDIT: Forgot to mention here the nature of the problem -- no sound at all. However, the program fldigi seems to be able to get input from the Line In.
    pavucontrol shows the meter moving when sound is being generated. Here's the output from lsmod | grep snd:

    I'm happy to provide more information. Every other arch install I've done has worked flawlessly, first time I've ever encountered audio problems.
    I'm going to re-read the ALSA, OSS and Pulseaudio wiki entries, even though I feel like I'm still not grasping something.
    A sincere thank-you for everyone's help here. I can get the alsa-info.sh script as well, if that will help.

    What have you used to try to push sound through?
    Have you tried:
    aplay -L
    null
    Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture)
    default:CARD=VT82xx
    HDA VIA VT82xx, ALC662 rev1 Analog
    Default Audio Device
    sysdefault:CARD=VT82xx
    HDA VIA VT82xx, ALC662 rev1 Analog
    Default Audio Device
    front:CARD=VT82xx,DEV=0
    HDA VIA VT82xx, ALC662 rev1 Analog
    Front speakers
    Then:
    speaker-test -Dplug:default -c2 -l1
    Try changing 'default' to one of playback devices output by aplay -L
    Have you tried any 'model=' options for the module?

  • Lenovo Yoga - My first experience with a notebook - my last with Lenovo

    Short story about myself:
    I am a designer (print/web) and a coder (Web).
    I started my studying and thought it was time to get a Notebook as the iPad would not cut the productivity needed anymore. I was mostly working at the office or at home. But studying and the big breaks would make it impossible to get along both of those places so I needed a way to work while I was on the go.
    So I decided to buy a Notebook. It was down to a few models but the Lenovo Yoga 13" caught me.
    My i5 version had some great specs. Starting at 8GB ram going down to the IPS screen at HD resolution all was fine. 
    I picked it up in February just before my birthday as a little present and motivation for myself.
    Trouble began right after I received it. The Space key was not responsive on the bottom left corner and the keyboard was wobbly. I was kind of disappointed as I have always read that Lenovo does great Keyboards, the Yoga does not seem to have one. I know that the keyboard won't be as great as the mechanical Keyboard I have lying around here, but that bad ?
    The keyboard is what I would imagine a keyboard would feel like printed on a pad of silicone.
    Fan Noise, unbearable. Working in a quiet environment is impossible. I don't want to hear any noise from a device that is using an SSD. Other manufacturers are able to shut down noise, why is Lenovo not able to ? After working several nights with the Yoga and then switching one night over to my iPad I realized how terriblly disturbing that noise was. So I did a quick search came along the forums and saw a big thread which has even grown bigger. You see customers basically begging for an Update on the Fan Noise issue. The thread has 90 pages most of them people trying to figure a way out. Some even plug out their fans and yet the Yoga runs stable. 
    So , we could question how much effort went into that poorly designed patch for the Yoga.  It does not seem like a lot , despite the fact it took so long. I know how to Manage Information System Projects but I don't understand the time involved. Either there are problems you don't want to admit to your customer (bad documentation, no ressources, design flaw ... ) or you simply lack the ability to understand what your customer wants. 
    After I got sick of the issues which bothered me day by day I went into the store and registered a complaint. They sent it in.
    I had the following issues: 
    Space Key not responsive
    Top of the keyboard and right edge loose 
    Fan loud and always running
    High Frequent Noise
    Ability to turn on the device while lid is closed AND fans running at the same time
    It came back: 
    Module changed, Bios Update, Test run
    I took the device and inspected it in the store with a salesman. We both noticed a bump at the wasd keys thus we knew something went wrong and opened up the keyboard at the edge just to find out the official repair service used some double sided tape above the RAM slot. Space key was responsive now but the Keyboard had a big wave rising up at the left and lowering down at the right side. The fans were still running, I still had a high frequent noise and the ability to turn on the device while the lid was closed was still possible.
    So in the next hour without exiting the store I filled in another complaint. Waited another two weeks and got the message that I should be paying for the next repair. Incredible strategy. Do the repair bad and let the customer pay.  But that is not how you should deal with your customers. After speaking with the service guy , who seems to have spoken with Lenovo's service partner they took over the cost. 
    So now my Yoga was back.
    The whole keyboard was exchanged as it seems (it looked pretty new so I assume it was changed) - The repair information just said "module changed" 
    After just about an hour of using the keyboard was lose again. 
    Guess what I went back to the store and now it was the time to request my money. Of course I had to wait for another 2 weeks.
    It was a total downtime of 2 months and worst service I have ever seen. Especially that double sided tape was hilarious and unprofessional and made up for some good laughs. 
    And today I got my money back thanks to the law system we have here in Germany , which saves customers like me from faulty products. 
    In the time I did not have my Yoga I tried out several in stores and found the same errors over and over again and mostly with the keyboard. So it seems like a design flaw to me. A very bad one.
    Colors were scrapping of the edges even on mine to which was handled with a lot of care and carried with a very nice incase sleeve which has some very soft fur inside. 
    Fan Noise on all of them. Some were even worse than mine. 
    I am a very disappointed customer and  I don't think I will come back again to Lenovo and a lot of my friends won't get any recommandation at least not for the "casual" series. This should go straight to your quality assurance department.
    You should know that you only have one chance to do it right. And if you do it wrong at least care a bit. If you don't your customers will simply move on such as me. 
    I hope that everyone who enjoys his Yoga continues to do so and everyone who has complaints to put up their voice so you can be heard and people who are responsible for the flaws start correcting them. 
    I am happy to be out of that beg for something but don't receive anything circle.

    2)Trying to download apps from appworld getting the message that the radio must be turned on. where do i find the radio? The radio being referred to is your device radio you use for voice and data. Click on manage connections icon> make sure Mobile is checked.
    3)Trying to download / install appworld directly to bb. bb says it is there but when trying to download any app getting a message that appworld needs updated.
    Have only had the phone for 2 days, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
    Thanks,

  • Problems with spaces in directory or file names and Word.exe

    Hi
    I'm trying to open a file with Word from my java aplication, and I have a problem with some file/directory names.
    I have this
    String cmd = "c:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Office\\Office10\\WINWORD.EXE" + " " + path;
    try {
    Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
    } catch (Exception errorea){ }
    Here is what happens:
    if path is something like this: "c:\people\info.doc" , there's no problem, Word opens the document, but if path contains blank spaces somewhere, it doesn't work. For example:
    path = "c:\Documents and Settings\info.doc"
    path = "c:\Hi everybody\info.doc"
    path = "c:\tests\test results.doc"
    with the above examples it doesn't work :( Word tries to open "c:\Documents", "c:\Hi" or "c:\tests\test".
    Can anyone help? thanx a lot ! : )

    No, the exec method runs the Word.weird, it shouldn't, and it wouldn't on my system going by the test I just made, but I'm running linux & not windows, maybe the command line parsing is different for some reason.
    The problem is that
    Word starts and then Word says that it can't open the
    file because the name or the path to the file is not
    valid.You still should use the overload that takes a String array.

  • I have had terribble experience with Firefox 4.0.1 - it hangs and crashes all the time. Is there a way a can uninstall it and go back to previous version?

    A lot of times when it crashes it gives an error when should send out the crash report - says it can't be sent, but this is the crash ID from 3 days ago - hope it will help. I also have the problem with the FlashGet extension. In previous version of Firefox it used to easily pick up the download, now it doesn't and I have to manually enter the link into FlashGet itself. I was always so happy with Firefox. Other browsers like Safari or Chrome just didn't do it for me, but now it's just impossible to work like that.

    That message appears because your phone was hacked to unlock it in order to use it with the carrier you're now using. Updating software or restoring a hacked iPhone will re-lock it to the carrier it was originally locked to. You have two choices: re-hack it, or get it officially unlocked(only the carrier it is locked to can authorize such).
