How do I import xmp files that contain edits from another computer?

I edited some images on my laptop and the Metadata Catalog settings show changes are written into the .xmp files.  I copied both the CR2 and corresponding .xmp files to my Desktop computer.  When I imported the images into LR 5.5, the edits did not show up.
How do I get the corresponding .xmp files to update the CR2 files?  Or do I have to start over and import the LR Catalog from my Laptop for just this series of images?
If I send off my CR2 files for someone to edit and they send me back the .xmp files containing the edits, shouldn't I be able to update my original CR2 files???
Thanks, Marc

Also for the info to be read 100% both computers need to be using the same version of LR. (e.g. Lr 4.x will not apply all the info from LR 5.x)

  • How do I transfer my songs that I downloaded from another computer onto a different computer?

    I have an Ipod Classic 160GB. I have all my songs downloaded from an Itunes library on a different computer. I want to know how I can take all the songs that I downloaded from that computer onto a new Itunes library for this computer. This is a Mac I dont know what brand its just a Mac.

    In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    Once you get the domain.sites file copied from your old Mac to the User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder on your new Mac follow this:
    To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • How do I import a file that is on the desktop to iMovie?

    How do I import a file that is on the desktop to iMovie?
    I had some 8 mm film put onto DVD by yesdvd and now want to import the 3 hours of video into iMovie to edit and create a short story.
    I have created a dmg file on my desktop from the DVD but am at a loss as to what's next.  There are a bunch of files on the dmg file, including one that says video, which has a bunch of files in it that are video.  I assume I need to convert them to a format which iMovie likes.  Which one should I use, and which program should I get to do it?
    Once I have done that, where should I put the converted files and how do I work with them using iMovie?

    You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
    http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
    which is free, but you must also have the  Apple mpeg2 plugin :
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
    (unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
    which is a mere $20.
    Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
    http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
    which costs $25.
    For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
    Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.
    And from the TOU of these forums:

    If you are running Lion:
    From the MPEG Streamclip homepage
    The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it.
    To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
    The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. You don't have to install QuickTime 7.

  • HT4796 How can I take the files that were migrated from my PC to my Mac and add all those files to my current user instead of having 2 users?

    How can I take the files that were migrated from my PC to my Mac and add all those files to my current user instead of having 2 users? Having to log out just to sign in on a different user to access the files is absurd.
    Do I make all the files sharable to all the NOW users on the mac then just delete the files? Or can i erase my account that I made when starting up my new mac and then just use the one with the transferred files?
    I just dont want to have to og in and out of 2 different accounts .. Help please.         
    -Nina

    Sorry. /Users is a folder path. It would be similar to C:\Users (if that exists on Windows).
    So, in the Finder, select Computer from the Go menu.
    You'll see Macintosh HD, double-click that to open it.
    In there you'll see several folders. One is Users. That is where all the user Home folders exist. Select the other account's home folder and go to step 3.
    If you have any more confusion, please stop and ask. We'll get there.
    If you feel more comfortable, you can just log into that other account and move the files into /Users/Shared.
    Then, log into the account you wish to use and copy the files from the Shared folder and paste them into your Home folder, wherever they belong, Documents, Music, Pictures, etc.  That just takes a little more work. Transferring them into Shared, and then copying into your home sets the permissions on the files so that you won't have a problem accessing them later. The steps I provided just prevent you from having to do the double move, since you are not going to use the old account once you are done.
    Quick unix shorthand. If someone gives you a file path that begins with a /, that means the root of the hard drive, ie Macintosh HD (if you haven't renamed it). The path separator in unix is /, not \.
    A path that starts with ~/ means your Home folder, the one inside /Users named with your account name.

  • Can time capsule keep backup files that are removed from my computer

    Can time capsule keep backup files that are removed from my computer? I am a photographer and have a ton of files that take too much space on my computer. I'd like to have a backup of them but keep them off of my computer. Does time capsul allow this?

    files you remove from your computer will be removed from your time machine backups sooner or later.
    better store important files on an external HD which, if connected directly to your computer and given enough space on your TC, can be backed up using time machine.

  • How do I transfer music, videos to my iPhone from another computer that is not the one my iPhone syncs with

    How do I transfer music, videos to my iPhone from another computer that is not the one my iPhone syncs with.
    Thank You!

    Take a look at this -> Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device
    Short version: iTunes will transfer the purchases made from the iTunes Store on your iPhoneh to your computer. It treats all other music and video syncing as a one-way street, to comply with copyright laws (wont sync stuff not purchased through iTunes from your iPhone to your computer).

  • Can't sync photos from ipad that I synced from another computer

    Can't sync photos from ipad that I synced from another computer... I want to have them on my computer.
    Why isn't there a way to do this? I don't get it. Sharing photos is such an important thing I don't understand why Apple makes it so hard to do this.
    OK here is my senario:
    Recently went on a trip Hong Kong with someone... we both had iphones and took hundreds of awesome photos. Now we want to share them with eachother. Too many photos for email and I don't wish to upload to flicker/facebook/etc...
    This is what I did thinking it should work...
    1) synced photos on her iphone with her computer
    2) synced photos on MY iphone with her computer
    3) put ALL the hong kong photos in one album
    4) connected my ipad to her computer... attempted to copy photos from iphoto to ipad -- NOPE, can't be done (***?!?!)
    5) so I synced the photos (and only the photos) in the hong kong album using itunes to my ipad -- this worked -- all photos now on my ipad
    6) drove home (5 hours away) and connected ipad to my computer and attempted to import with iphoto -- NOPE, can't be done (***!?!?) Won't even show the photos.
    7) itunes wants to replace all the photos on my ipad with the photos from my computer (***?!?!)
    How are you suppose to do this?! How are you suppose to be able to share lots of photos with people?

    Photos are not copied off the iPad via iTunes.
    For photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    For photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer (which has a free lite version called Simple Photo & Video Transfer) which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

  • Overwriting a PDF file that is open on another computer

    Hi!
    Instead of a intranet, we decided to post a PDF file via network mapping to keep the staff updated on the latest news.
    We use a mapped network folder as source for the documents, and one document with links so the staff can navigate to relevant information. The staff opens the PDF-file in IE.
    The problem we have is that whenever someone in the staff has opened the document in IE we are unable to edit the PDF in Word and overwrite the PDF-file that are availible to the staff.
    Is there any way that we can make the file overwritable when someone has opened it, and the person that is reading the file can simple refresh and get the updated information?
    This document will be edited by several departement managers, so it's impossible for us to use other editing tools than Office  (which they are already used to).
    Thanks in advance.

    I'm not an expert on editing files that are opened by another application, but I am not sure it _can_ be done the way you currently have it set up.  At least as far as IE is concerned.  (And I hate IE, too.. never did like it.)
    IMHO, the file should be stored in a database; that way, no matter how many people are accessing it, you can make changes and save them to the binary stored in a BLOB/CLOB datatype.  And if you (exclusive) lock the record as it's being saved, whomever is trying to access it will be "paused" until the save is complete and they will then retrieve the latest update without any corruption of data, or other 'hiccup'.
    If a database is not an option, I'm not sure what to do.  If it were an intranet, it might be different.  But a network share isn't the best solution.  It might be cost-saving or easier to maintain; but there's a saying - You can have it cheap, fast, or good; pick two.

  • How can I import mp3 files that I received in an email to iTunes?

    I received an email (gmail on exchange server, if that is material) containing an .mp3 file that I would like to "import" into iTunes.  I have downloaded it, but I don't know where downloads "go" on the iPhone, so I can only play it directly from the email.  Moreover, it plays in quicktime, not iTunes, so I don't even have the option to save it into a library while/after it plays.  I would like to move this file into iTunes -- how can I do this?
    All help appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • FB3B2 unable to import WSDL files that contain XSD imports

    Much to my dismay, the new WSDL import wizard does not seem
    to work on WSDL files that import XSD files. When "Finish" is
    pressed, an error dialog states "The WSDL definition could not be
    parsed. The wizard cannot complete successfully."
    I created a sample WSDL that uses the most basic of XSD
    files to demonstrate. Remove the import line from the WSDL and it
    will import, with the line it will not.

    Hi Jeff,
    How are you specifying the WSDL URI?
    - If as an absolute path on your machine, make sure there are
    no spaces in that path – there is a known issue about path
    with spaces and WSDL with imports, and we’re on it. We tried
    out your sample WSDL this way and it works.
    - If you are specifying it as an HTTP url (accessing it over
    the Apache HTTP server, for example), the workaround is a little
    more complicated. There are indeed some unresolved issues with the
    ActionScript generator. Try putting the wsdl and xsd files inside a
    folder in the webroot, and another copy of the xsd in the webroot.
    This worked for me - the problem is about locating the imported
    document correctly: the introspection correctly uses the sibling
    xsd file, while the generator incorrectly looks for that file one
    level up. We’ll look into this and fix it.
    Please let me know if it starts working or if it still does
    not generate the ActionScript client classes. Thank you.
    Also, please be aware of another known issue about WSDL with
    imports:
    http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FB-7678
    (For WSDLs that import other documents, the cached WSDL file should
    include the content of the imported documents).

  • How can I import eex files into Applications EUL from the unix command line

    How can I import *.eex and *.dis files into an Applications EUL from the unix command line?
    Thanks

    Hi
    The simple answer is you either have to use the client tool DIS51ADM to import files using the command line (Discoverer Admin is a windows only client tool), or the Java command line which needs a browser.
    In theory if you have a browser running on your Unix box you may be able to use the Java command line to make this work.
    Best wishes
