How do I create a smart album that contains all pictures with no keywords?

Hi,
I have many pictures which currently don't have any keywords at all. Now I want to tag these pictures with keywords. How can I create a smart album for those pictures without any keywords? So that I can then work just on these pictures...
Note that I don't want to find pictures that don't have a specific keyword. I want to find all those pictures which have none keyword at all.
Thanks,
Rainer

Well, there's a way but it's not great...
Start with a smart album at whatever level you want to keyword everything under. Set to search where "rating is greater than or equal to unrated".
Select all images, and apply a keyword like "NeedsKeyword". Yes, even the one with keywords already.
Now change the smart folder - use the "+" menu on the upper right corner of the query box to add an "IPTC" search. In that row use the dropdown by IPTC to find "keywords", then set the one next to it to "is", then type "NeedsKeyword" (or whatever you used) into the text box. Now go up to the top of the query box and change the "Match" dropdown to be "all" instead of "Any".
What we've done here is find all images where the only keyword is "NeedsKeyword", all the ones you've done with keywords already will not appear.
Now, copy these images into an Album (not smart album) for tagging - this is because as soon as you tag an image it will vanish and you may wish to apply more than one tags).
After you are done tagging, you want to remove the tag - this is trickier than you might think, as you need to remove it from images tagged before in addition to the images in the Album you just made.
First, change your smart folder to once again find all images by unchecking the IPTC keyword search. Now you'll see all images - but you're not done yet! You cannot batch undo a keyword in a smart folder, even though you can batch add. Select all of the images and drag into the Album you were using to keyword. Inside an Album the keyword metadata inspector shows only common keywords, NeedsKeyword should be one of them - remove it and it will be gone, and all your images tagged. Now you can remove the Album and the Smart Album you created.
Harder than it needs to be, I'd say - I've submitted feedback you need some way to search for untagged images. Heck, it may already be in 1.1! Or Joe might know of an easier way that has eluded me.
Good luck!

  • How can I create a smart folder that only searches one event?

    Is it possible to create a smart album but have it not search my entire library, but only a certain event?
    I have created a smart album to find unnamed faces, but I have many old pictures in my library with strangers in them so the smart album ends up quite large. If I could apply the rules of the smart album to only one event at a time I could find the photos i need with no faces recognized in them easier right after I import them.
    Or conversely, is there a fast way to delete all the unnamed faces boxes for all my pictures with strangers in them- there must be a faster way than going through and clicking the 'X' on each individual face.
    Thanks!

    Make the criteria: Event Contains XXXXXXX and Faces is unnamed.  That will search only that Event.

  • How do I create a .llb file that holds all the subVIs used in a VI?

    Hi
    I wish to create a .llb file that holds all the subVIs(~200) used in my main VI.
    When I open my main VI, and look into the 'show VI hierarchy' I see a lot of subVIs, so to copy all these subVIs into the library file is going to be really time consuming. I am hoping there is an option in Labview by which I could automatically put all these subVIs into one library file?

    In your toplevel VI, go to "File..save with options".
    Now select "Development distribution", press save, and give it a name for the llb.

  • I want to create an intelligent file to show all pictures with 3 stars or more. Trying this, I don't know the character of the stars to fill in the respective box ??

    I want to create an intelligent file in my finder to show all pictures with 3 stars or more. Trying this, I don't know the character of the stars to fill in the respective box ??
    Thanks for your help.

    Take a look here: http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20110314131100623
    One of the comments suggests you can't use greater than or less than with the star rating in Finder.
    You might try a Raw Query with the kMDItemStarRating.
    In the criteria popup menu, select Other, then find the Raw Query entry.
    You might have to play around with the syntax, but try "kMDItemStarRating >= 3"

  • How do I create a smart playlist that automatically gets updated when I add songs to other specific playlists?

    Basically I have a number of playlists containing specific types of songs, and also have an "All Songs" playlist that contains everything from these playlists. It would be really helpful if the songs I add to the smaller playlists could also be added to an "All Songs" smart playlist automatically. How would I do this? I tried to make a smart playlist by selecting "Playlist" "is" "[names of each playlist]." But nothing happened. Is there something more I'm supposed to do? I'm not really familiar with how smart playlists work, so I may be doing something wrong.
    Thank you!

    I tried to make a smart playlist by selecting "Playlist" "is" "[names of each playlist]." But nothing happened.
    Check up at the top of your smart playlist rule for "All Songs". Is it currently saying "Match all of the following rules"?
    If so, change the all to any, as per the following screenshot:

  • How to create a stored procedure that contains all 3 AFTER Triggers Update/Insert/Delete ?

    Hi guys, I'm trying to create a Stored procedure that will automatically add all 3 After triggers when executed on any given database, can someone please explain and give an example on how do I go about doing this ? I'd also like it to raise any errors
    that may come across, thanks in advance.

    Lets start with the question why do you need the triggers at all. Since SQL Server 2005 we can use an OUTPUT clause.
    This code can be re-written in SQL Server 2005 using the OUTPUT clause like below:
    create table itest ( i int identity not null primary key, j int not null unique )
    create table #new ( i int not null, j int not null)
    insert into itest (j)
    output inserted.i, inserted.j into #new
    select o.object_id from sys.objects as o
    select * from #new
    drop table #new, itest;
    go
    Now from this example, you can see the integration of OUTPUT clause with existing DML syntax.
    Another common scenario is auditing of data in a table using triggers. In this case, the trigger uses information from the inserted and updated tables to add rows into the audit tables. The example below shows code that uses OUTPUT clause in UPDATE and DELETE
    statements to insert rows into an audit table.
    create table t ( i int not null );
    create table t_audit ( old_i int not null, new_i int null );
    insert into t (i) values( 1 );
    insert into t (i) values( 2 );
    update t
       set i  = i + 1
    output deleted.i, inserted.i into t_audit
     where i = 1;
    delete from t
    output deleted.i, NULL into t_audit
     where i = 2;
    select * from t;
    select * from t_audit;
    drop table t, t_audit;
    go

  • How can you create a paragraph style that removes all spaces and forces everything to lower case?

    Hi,
    Is there anyway of using GREP (or some other magical wizardry) to create a paragraph style that automatically removes all spaces and forces words into lower case?
    Strange request i know....I'm wanting to use it for datamerged email addresses.
    Thanks

    so doing it through InDesign is a work around I'm exploring.
    Excel has the 'LOWER' function and the ability to record macros for a quick find/replace on the spaces - so that's definitely a good option if it can't be solved purely in InDesign.
    You can change case via scripting in InDesign. This AppleScript (OSX only) will set the case of the selected paragraph style to lower. It would be possible to add some code that would strip spaces as well:
    tell application "Adobe InDesign CS6"
        activate
            set StyleList to name of every paragraph style of active document
        set myDialog to make dialog with properties {name:"Document Paragraph Styles"}
        tell myDialog
            tell (make dialog column)
                tell (make border panel)
                    tell (make dialog column)
                        make static text with properties {static label:"Choose a Style", min width:150}
                    end tell
                    tell (make dialog column)
                        set myPresetsDropdown to make dropdown with properties {string list:StyleList, selected index:0, min width:150}
                    end tell
                end tell
            end tell
        end tell
        set myResult to show myDialog
        if myResult = true then
            --+1 gets the correct name because list starts at 0
            set myStyle to item ((selected index of myPresetsDropdown) + 1) of StyleList
        else
            return
        end if
        destroy myDialog
        tell active document
            set myStyle to paragraph style myStyle
            repeat with j from 1 to (count stories)
                repeat with i from 1 to (count paragraphs in story j)
                    if applied paragraph style of paragraph i of story j is myStyle then
                        --defines a variable to replace the generic this_text parameter in the handler
                        set SCText to the contents of paragraph i of story j
                        set contents of paragraph i of story j to my change_case_of(SCText)
                    end if
                end repeat
            end repeat
        end tell
    end tell
    on change_case_of(this_text)
        set the_comparison_string to "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"
        set the_source_string to "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
        set the_new_text to ""
        repeat with thisChar in this_text
            set x to the offset of thisChar in the_comparison_string
            if x is not 0 then
                set the_new_text to (the_new_text & character x of the_source_string) as string
            else
                set the_new_text to (the_new_text & thisChar) as string
            end if
        end repeat
        return the_new_text

  • PSE9/Win 7: Can I create a Smart Album of all images that Don't have a certain tag?

    Using PSE9 on Windows 7.
    I'd like to create a Smart Album that contains all of the images that don't have a particular tag.
    When I click on Create New Smart Album the dialog box allows me to select 'Keyword Tags'.
    But the next item is 'Include'. Then I can select that tags I want.
    I basically want the Include to be 'Exclude'.
    Any way to do something like that?

    Hi,
    You could try this.
    1) Show all photos
    2) Check the Keyword Tag that you are interested in
    3) Under Options Select Hide best match results & Show results that do not match (i.e. reverse the last two conditions).
    to read
    That should be showing you what you wanted to see
    4) Now use the top option Save Search Criteria As Smart Album and give it a name
    That seems to remember the reversed conditions as well as the tag.
    Good Luck,
    Brian

  • IPhoto 8.1.2 can you create a smart album with only one face

    I'm using iPhoto 8.1.2 and have about 23k photos in the library. I have identified 32 key faces, and would now like to create some smart albums that contain only the face or faces that I want and to exclude all the others.  S for example  a smart album that has only my son.
    I tried using the doesn't contain this face, but you can only have around 10 filters/critiria in a smart album.
    any suggestions are appriciated

    You can't really, because you can't exclude enough of the faces.
    I would keyword the preferred images as well, so finding the face and the keyword would find the pics of the person alone.

  • How to create a smart folder that only selects from a specific directory?

    I am trying to create a smart folder that lists all my iPhoto original content in the last few months. I want this so that my wife can connect into the smart folder over the LAN when copying specific photos to her PC.
    I am have trouble working out how to restrict the search to only those files that exists in the iPhoto directory. When I look at info for a photo is states "Where: /Users/Shared/iPhoto Library/iPhoto Library/Data/2009/....etc etc".
    However if I add an filter for "Where from" begins with "/Users/Shared/... etc etc" it returns nothing. Is there a way to do this?

    Find the iPhoto library file.
    Right click -> Show package contents.
    Double click the Originals folder.
    Type anything in the Search box at the top of the Finder window.
    In the top of the Finder window, click "Originals".
    Click the + (plus) sign next to Save.
    Select Kind is Image.
    Click the + (plus) sign again.
    Select *Created date* is *within last 3 months* (or whatever you want).
    Go to the search box and delete what you typed. Don't hit the X to delete the search text.
    Now save the smart search.
    This is saved in ~\Library\Saved searches. Copy or move it to the desktop where your wife can get access to it.

  • How do I create a smart playlist of songs that are not in any playlist?

    I have zillions of songs and many playlists to manage them. So how do I create a smart playlist that shows songs that are not in any playlist?
    An easier answer would be " Playlist > is > None" but this option is not available.
    Any other creative solutions?
    (...and a long list of "Playist > is not > Playlist AA" through "Playist > is not > Playlist ZQ" is not a manageable answer as my playlists are too dynamic for that. Such a playlist would always be broken.)

  • I need a Smart Album that only contains photos with NO faces detected

    I've been fiddling with the smart album settings, and I can't seem to find a way to do this. iPhoto will miss detection on some faces, and I need a way to see ONLY the photos that iPhoto didn't find a face for.
    This is NOT the same as a smart album with an "unknown" face. This is a smart album that will show ALL photos with NO face detected at all.
    Is this possible?

    Boy, why can't we use Smart Folders as a criteria for creating another Smart Folder? This works in iTunes! You can use a Smart Playlist as a criteria for creating another Smart Playlist.
    Well, here is what you can do...
    Create a Smart Folder that gathers all of the identified Faces. Faces --> is not --> unnamed
    Then drag all those photos to a standard album titled Faces Named
    Next Create a Smart folder that gathers all of the unnamed Faces. Faces --> is --> unnamed
    Now drag all those photos to a standard album title Faces Unnamed.
    Finally, create a Smart Album with the following criteria...
    Album --> is not --> Faces Named
    Album --> is not --> Faces Unnamed
    That should gather every photo that iPhoto has determined that no faces exist.

  • Site lookup columns that contain a list with lookup columns help needed

    Here is the theoretical scenario,
    I have a list called Shirts. The list contains name,color, and size columns.
    I have a list called Pants This list contains name, color and size columns as well.
    These two lists are contained at the root level of the site. I created site lookup columns for these two lists and used the name, color and size columns as additional fields on both lookup columns. Lets call these lkupPants and lkupShirts.
    On a sub site I have a list called people. It contains name,date,lkupPants and lkupShirts columns.
    The list looks something like this is dataview:
    Name Date lkupPantsName lkupPantsColor lkupPantsSize lkupShirtName lkupShirtColor lkupShirtSize
    This is the behavior I expected. The additional columns selected in the site lookup columns appear in the list.
    I now create another site lookup column this one is based on the list called people at this subsite level. When creating the site lookup column, the data from lkupPants and lkupShirts are not available.
    How can one create a lookup column that contains list data and any lookup columns contained in the list as additional fields.
    If anyone can see where I am going with this, can they provide another means to accomplish what I am trying to do?
    fr0stsp1re

    create additional columns in people list.  look up values are available in the workflow so populate the additional columns with the values you need.  this will allow you to create another look up column based on this list and all the fields needed.
     just a thought.
