How to find all photos that have NO faces, as opposed to UNNAMED faces?

I find that iPhoto often misses faces entirely, especially if the face is wearing sunglasses or a hat or both.  Sometimes it is rather inexplicable that it has missed a face, as the face seems obvious.
If you use the smart album method to find all "unnamed" faces, the photos have at least one unnamed face identified.  You can then add any missed faces to those photos.
But what about photos in which iPhoto has failed to identify the existence of even one face?  Or for that matter, if I want to see only pictures of landscapes or objects that have no people?  Does anyone have a method for finding all photos that have no faces in them at all?
For me, the idea is to find all unidentified faces and add them.  But as I pointed out above, there may be other uses for this.
Any ideas, anyone?
Thanks

Awesome !!! Thank you very much. I did not realize you could use JavaScript to code against iTunes ...
I don't know if you have written any of these yourself, but do you know how to maybe create a smart playlist with this information via script? If not, no big deal. At least I know have something which I can use, I will just have to run it every so often.
Thanks again for pointing me to that site!

  • How do I save photos that have been synced to my Ipad2, so that they do not get deleted when I sync with a different photo file on my computer.

    How do I save photos that have been synced to my Ipad2, so that they do not get deleted when I sync with a different photo foder on my computer (Pc win7).

    Place that first folder of photos that you synced to the iPad within the main folder of photos that you sync from and select them to sync again. You can place any number of subfolders within the main folder that you sync from and select those folders to sync. Just "tick"(select) the folders in the photos tab in iTunes.

    Yest it will restore photos deleted from yur iOd probvide that the photos were taken before the the last synce/backyp was made.  Make syre yu have automatic syncing turned off (Itunes>Preference>Devices>Check the box that says prevent auto syncing when connected).  Otherwise when connected, a backup that reflects the deleted photos will be made and will replace the previous backup.

  • How do I find all photos that can be '"reverted to original"? Help please!

    Hi. I hope that someone can help me with this!
    I am trying to go through my iPhoto Library of about 1000 photos and find all of the photos that have the option to be "reverted to original", ie. I have made changes to them. I realise that I could go through them one by one, but I am trying to avoid that!
    I have realised recently that I should duplicate a photo before changing it, so that I leave the original untouched. However this doesn't help me with all of the old ones that I DIDN'T duplicate.
    Is there an Applescript or a method of finding all of the old photos that I am looking for?
    Thanks so much in advance for any help,
    Fleur

    I don't think it can be done from within iPhoto but there's a way you can do it from outside. First download and launch QPict. Then do the following;
    1 - open your iPhoto Library folder and type Command-F.
    2 - in the search window create these two search criteria:
    a - Kind is Folder
    b - Name contains Original
    3 - In the search results window click on the size column to separate the empty folders from those with files in them.
    4 - select all of the folder that are not empty and drag into the open window of QPict.
    That will open the original files in QPict so you can view them there and compare to those in iPhoto. Just remember do not move any of those folders out of the iPhoto Library folder. Just move them into the open window of QPict.

  • Finding all photos that include a particular person whether their face appears or not

    Faces is a great way to locate all photos where someone's face appears.  But what about photos that the person is in, but their face is not (e.g., the photo was taken from behind the person)?  What's the best way to tag photos so that I'll be able to have all photos that contain Person X together, whether their face is in the photo or not?  (Note: I know I could use Faces to add a face to the back of someone's head - that would get that picture to appear in Faces for that person, but would likely mess up the face recognition for that person).
    My current thought is to use keywords to tag those photos with the names of people who appear in photos without their face showing.  I could then create a Smart Album that includes all photos that contain a Face or Keyword for Person X.  Is there a better way to accomplish this?

    (Note: I know I could use Faces to add a face to the back of someone's head - that would get that picture to appear in Faces for that person, but would likely mess up the face recognition for that person).
    That will not mess up the face recognition. iPhoto will only use the faces that have been automatically found by iPhoto to learn the parameters for the recognition of the person. So you can include any part of the person to get the photot in the Faces stack on the cork board.

    That is fine, but does not give you access by using the Faces view.

  • How can i delete photos that have been synced from my computer to my i-pad?

    I want to delete photos that have been copied from my computer to my i-pad,i can delete albums but not phots?

    If photos were synced from your computer then they can't be deleted directly on the iPad, you will need to remove/de-select them from where you synced it from on your computer and re-sync.

  • How to find all songs that do not have album art

    I create several smart playlists for housekeeping, like songs with no year, songs with no album name, etc. I wanted to create a similar one that lists all songs that do not have any album art associated with it. I have not seen this option when creating a playlist, but I didn't know if there was a way to write a script (that could run on Windows) that could create this playlist for me. I can (and have) gone through each song individually to note which did not have album art, but I have almost 5000 songs, and this is not really feasible any more.
    Has anyone else done anything similar to this? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

  • How to find PDF files that have other documents bundeled within them?

    Hello guys
    I need help with the following: we have a huge number of PDF files that have other documents imbedded (bundled, attached) in them. If such a document is open in Acrobat, bundled files show up as attachments on the left. Some of those attachements are .mdi files. This is Microsoft Document Images files. Is there a way to flag PDF's that have those .mdi files in them? I need to find them and convert to PDF. If I need to be more descriptive please ask, and thank you in advance for help.

    Preflight is a complex plugin, it's hard to explain how to use it in one forum post. You need to read the documentation carefully.
    There's no pre-built profile for what you want, so you would first create a new Custom Check that compares the MIME type string of embedded files to what you're searching for (not the file extension but the full MIME identifier, which for Office files is a very long string). You would then place that new Custom Check into a new Profile, identifying it as an error condition. Once you've saved the Profile you can run it against a number of files and specify actions to be taken for pass and fail conditions, such as changing the filename or moving to a subfolder.

  • How to find all tables that are associated with a given domain name.

    I want to find all table, excluding the structures, of a given domain name, say, waers.
    Some of the tables are directly contains the domains while others are related with a data element which is connected to that domain.
    I want to find tables for all two case -either tables connected directly to the domain or connected via data element- and exclude the structures.
    thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    The following thing may help you.
    in se11-> search for tables having names like 'DD*'.
    From this list of tables you can find the required table to get domain, data element nad table name.
    one way of doing it:
    SELECT rollname domname
      FROM dd04l
      INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE it_tab.
    SELECT rollname tabname
      FROM dd03l
      INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE it_tab1
      FOR ALL ENTRIES IN it_tab
      WHERE rollname = it_tab-rollname.
    SORT it_tab1.
    DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM it_tab1.
    LOOP AT it_tab1 INTO wa_tab.
      MODIFY it_tab FROM wa_tab
      TRANSPORTING tabname
      WHERE rollname = wa_tab-rollname.
    ENDLOOP.
    LOOP AT it_tab INTO wa_tab.
      WRITE:/ wa_tab-domname,

    i figured that out - but now i can't yet figure out how to move photos from "my photos file" on my computer to adobe bridge.  it must be so simple that i can't see how it is done.  lots of stuff available about how to move from a camera or from picasa - but how to just move from regular microsoft files to adobe bridge. 

  • How can I recover photos that have become corrupt

    Hi guys, having some trouble with old photos on my pc (windows 7), any help would be much appreciated.
    I have some old holiday photos on my pc in a specific folder . I had downloaded a password protection application and had set it up so that i had to use a password to access just that specific folder. I stupidly deleted this password application without
    having "un-linked" it from this folder.
    This allowed me to access this folder with the pictures in it without the password, however i am no longer able to view any of the photos. They have all changed from a 'JPEG' to a couple of the following types of files : 'TI File',    ')4( File',
             ')(EFile'    'ZUR_ELPRRC_ File',   'DME File'. 
    I cannot open any of these files with any type of application on my pc (I think). It will not let me preview in windows photo viewer and states that the file "cannot open because its either deleted , or its in a location that isnt available".
    I also cannot delete the files as it states that the file' is no longer in the specific location, and to verify its location and try again".
    I have also right clicked on the files and selected restore previous versions, which there were none. 
    If I try open the file with a windows picture view it states that the' file is not found'.
    Any idea on how i may be able to recover these files? Any help will be much appreciated!:)
    Thanks Heaps

    When you password-protected these folders then you did so to prevent anyone from accessing the pictures unless he had the correct password, even if he deleted the password application itself. Are you now asking how to get around this protection? If you
    selected a robust protection scheme then you probably got what you wanted: uncrackable encryption. You need to check the FAQs of this application and/or google for clues. Alternatively you could restore your files from your external backup medium (if you have
    one . . .).
