How to save changes developed with LR to the original photo file?

Once changes developed I want to save them onto the original file. I export the selected image (original photo + changes) with overwriting choice but the result file has only the original and not the changes

Presumably we’re talking about something other than RAW files, here, right?
LR is not Photoshop.  I don’t think you can overwight your original during an Export because it is in use.  LR isn’t really set up to do this, anyway.  LR is non-destructive so it would apply whatever settings it has for an image to the image and display the result for you.  If you overwrote the image, then LR would still apply the settings it had for the original image to the new image with the same name and would effectively be applying the settings twice, which is not what you want. 
What you probably want to do is export to a subfolder and then re-import those images so what you’ve exported are distinct from your originals.  If you really don’t want your originals after the export, just delete the originals and leave the exported images that you’ve already imported.

  • How do I change a bad location in the new photos app for Mac?

    I am not sure why but hundreds of my photos have the wrong location stored for them. Is there any easy way to change them in the new Photos app for mac?
    Thanks

    You can't at the present time.  There's no such capability in the current version of Photos.
    Tell Apple what additional features you want in Photos via both http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html and http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html  since they don't have a feedback page for Photos as yet.

  • Horrors: How do I get all my original photo files back out of iPhoto 9.1.2?

    In my heart I KNEW I should never have upgraded iPhoto when the update came in for 9.1.2. But I had no idea what it was going to do. Now, to my horror, I have found out.
    It has EATEN all the original photo files in my Home/Pictures folder and hidden them inside a single iPhoto database! Yikes.
    I discovered this nightmare when I tried to find the original hi-res of a certain photo, and searched my Mac for it by filename – the one assigned to it by my camera.
    All the original and modified versions of the file should have appeared in the search box – but no original appeared, sending me into a total panic. I also searched my laptop and back-up drive to no avail. Then I looked in the Home/Pictures folder and there were no photo files there, when there used to be hundreds. Just one single iPhoto Library file.
    I felt sick, I thought I had lost all my original photos.
    So now I have two problems, and questions:
    1) iPhoto only displays photos from the last 18 months, so how do you access all the photos from years back now?
    2) How can I export ALL my photos back out of the iPhoto database so I can have them where I can see them on my Mac again – as individual files in my Pictures folder like they were before?
    Oh, and one other question:
    What can I use instead of iPhoto? Can I revert to an earlier version? Or is there an application that I can import photos to that will leave the original files where they are? Then I can make a back-up of the originals before importing them into iPhoto.
    Thanks,

    PS: How do I change my Apple Discussions username?

    There's no reason to use the Finder to access your photos. That's what iPhoto is for.  THe following is from a post by Terence Devlin on accessing photos for use outside of iPhoto.  It's the definitive treatise on the subject.
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.
    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.
    If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running: 
    For users of 10.6 and later:
    You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation   which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and 10.5
    Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    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:
    a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier:  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. 
    b. On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • ALV Grid: how to save changes made in an editable Grid

    Hi,
    How to save changes made bu the user in any of the editable cells in a ALV Grid?
    Regards,
    deb.

    Hi,
    If you are using the FM look at the following example code...
    data: LC_GLAY TYPE LVC_S_GLAY.
    LC_GLAY-EDT_CLL_CB = 'X'.<<<<<------
    gt_layout-zebra = 'X'.
    gt_layout-detail_popup = 'X'.
    gt_layout-colwidth_optimize = 'X'.
    call function 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
    EXPORTING
    i_callback_program = i_repid
    i_callback_user_command = 'USER_COMMAND1'
    it_fieldcat = header
    is_layout = gt_layout
    i_callback_top_of_page = 'TOP-OF-PAGE1'
    i_grid_title = text-h17
    it_sort = gt_sort[]
    i_default = 'X'
    i_save = 'U'
    is_variant = gt_variant
    it_events = gt_events
    I_GRID_SETTINGS = LC_GLAY<<<<<<------
    TABLES
    t_outtab = itab.
    clear itab.
    Form USER_COMMAND1
    FORM USER_COMMAND1 USING u_ucomm LIKE sy-ucomm
    us_selfield TYPE slis_selfield."#EC CALLED
    case u_ucomm.
    when '&DATA_SAVE'.<<<<<<<<----
    This will come after the data was EDITTED and when SAVE was clicked by user in output scren.
    Here now in the final internal table(ITAB) you can find the data changed in EDIT mode.
    After this you can do manipulation what ever you want.
    Thanks.

    Hey 1Jerry,
    Thanks for the question. You'll want to delete and re-add your iCloud account (utilizing the new Apple ID address). When prompted, opt to keep as much information on your device as possible. The following article provides information on how to do so:
    iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2613
    Turn off iCloud completely
    Depending on whether you want to stop using iCloud on all or only some devices, do one or more of the following:
    On your iOS device’s Home screen, tap Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

    I use lightroom with the soft proofing feature for my printing. I used to make a copy proof, but all of the sudden something changed, and even if I'm on the copy in the developing mode it prints the original. Also, If i chose a file that was already in light room to print, even though I have the chosen file up in the developing mode, it will instead print the most recent file that I added to lightroom. If found a way to work around these problems, (check make this the copy in the soft proofing, and copy my settings and delete and reload the old files) but it's a slight hassle and it didn't use to do this. Not sure why it changed. Could I have accidentally changed a setting?

  • How to save a png with a straight or fat alpha?

    Long story short, work in broadcast and a new piece of gear prefers png files.  I know how to save png's with a transparency, that's not the problem.  What I don't know how to do or if it's possible is to save them with a straight or fat alpha.  Right now we feather or extend the edges out past the alpha of say a logo and save it as a tif, psd or .tga.  That way once it's keyed over video or whatever, the edges look good, no black bad edging.... this makes sense, probably not explaining it very well.   But switching to png files I have no idea how to make a straight or fat alpha since it sees transparency.  I mean if I feathered out the edges, a png will see that correct, since there's no alpha??
    I hope this makes sense ?

    Chris, this is probably the answer I seek "PNG always saves with straight color - that's how the PNG spec defines it." 
    I admit my explanation was a bit weak and I understand PNG only supports transparency, which is not an alpha,  and the apps aren't treating them wrong....I just couldn't formulate an intelligent question and explain it, my bad.
    After thinking about it I don't think using a PNG will work. RIght now for broadcast gear/applications if we don't fill the transparent and semi-transparent areas of an image with the colored part of the image, we usually end up getting a dirty key/matte or a lot of fringing.  So when using a .tif or .tga that reads an actuall alpha, we can fix the issue by doing what I described.  In fact we use a quick little plugin from flaming Pear called "Solidifty" to speed up the process http://www.flamingpear.com/download.html .  With that said, I know we can't do the same steps with a png because it only sees transparency, but I guess I was wondering if there was a work-around or a trick to fix that issue.  I could be wong, but doesn't a png save with white ?
    But again, as I thought about it, I think i'm asking for something it's not meant to do, but I thought I'd ask anyway.
    Thanks Chris, does this make more sense or more confusing?  The bottom-line is I don't think it will work.

  • How to save a graph with some parameters on it?

    hi
    my application involves analysis of data and plot a graph of analysed data, how to save graph along with analysed data in a file otherthan labview?

    Well, it sounds like you are wanting a picture of the graph, yes? If so there are two ways of getting it. First there is a VI method (Get Panel Image) that lets you get an image of the entire screen, and then there is a control method (Get Image) that lets you get an image of just the front panel object that you are interested in.
    The help file entries for either method provides added detail on how to uses these methods to save a picture of your data.

    Apps and Music are not from iCloud. Are from iTunes and App Store.
    You can change this from: Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Sign out and sign in with new ID, but you will have to pay again to download apps that you already have in your old account. Or leave it as it is to share purchases with your son.

  • HT204053 I recently changed ny Apple ID but it did not transfer over to my iCloud account. How do I change my iCloud ID? The login popup for iCloud will not go away so I cannot get into my iPad since it pops up as soon as I turn the device on.

    I recently changed my Apple ID but it did not transfer over to my iCloud account. How do I change my iCloud ID? The password for the new Apple ID does not work since the iCloud default user name is imbedded in the login box. The login popup for iCloud will not go away so I cannot get into my iPad since it pops up as soon as I turn the device on and re-occurs every few seconds.

    You have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPad on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iPad when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
