Ibooks author inspection widget: grayed-out title and caption options when object is selected

I'm trying to add titles or captions to photos in an iBooks Author project. I select the photo, click on Inspector and Widget, then Layout.  The only active option on Layout is the Accessibility Notes.  Is this a bug? What am I missing?

Right.
You can create text boxes next to an image for title and caption, but otherwise, those are attributes for a widget with media.

  • Grayed-out airport and bluetooth options (pulldown-menu)

    Hi,
    since the last week, i got some trouble with pulldown-menus of the desktop menu-bar.
    everything in an apple (no third-party stuff) pulldown menu is grayed-out.
    grayed-out:
    bluetooth
    airport
    battery
    time machine
    working:
    MobileMe
    Audio
    Language
    Time
    still i can change these options through the system preferences.
    i tried the basic, "switch of and on" but this does not work.
    because i do not have any more ideas and this problem is a little peeving, i hope someone here can help me.
    thanks in advance!
    Ps.: sorry about my language abuse

    i can change networks through the system preferences menu. but not through the finder ribbon under the airport signal fan

    What can I do, iPad disabled/lockout and iTunes keeps asking for password, I cannot restore...iTunes grays out backup and restore but my iPad and iPod shows on Apple etc..???

    Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode:
    1. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    2. Connect USB cable to computer, leave the other end alone
    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPad
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

  • When I export a group of jpg's from RAW files, only the first one retains it's title and caption.

    If I try to export a handful of images at the same time, the title and caption is stripped out at export. This happens on 5, 15 or 50 images. If I export them one by one the information is retained. It seems to me that only the first or one image can retain it's title and caption.
    Does anyone know why and how to fix this?

    Very strange. Haven't heard of any similar reports, so it doesn't sound like a very common problem. Maybe try resetting your preferences file, but if that doesn't work all I can suggest is to raise the problem at the official Adobe feedback site.
    For resetting the preferences file, see here:

  • How can I restore iPhoto titles and captions to iPhoto JPEGs sent to, and opened in, Aperture 3?

    How can I restore iPhoto titles and captions to iPhoto JPEGs sent to, and opened in, Aperture 3?

    Thank you very much, Kirby.  Your suggestion was exactly what I needed.  It proved to be a big help even to my One-to-One Aperture trainer at the Naperville IL Apple store.  My slideshow text, caption, and music attributes also were carried over intact to the new Aperture 3 environment.  - A.Z.

  • What's the difference and purpose of Keywording and metadata such as title and caption etc?

    What's the difference and purpose of Keywording and metadata such as title and caption, crator, sublocation , label etc?  Where & how is the information used?  Where does it appear?

    Keywording is primarily for your own use for finding photos fast.
    Title, Caption, etc are also for your own use but can be used by your clients or your stock company if you do not <Minimize Embedded Metadata> on export. Keywords are also included on export but are hardly of any use to others - unless you follow a standard for keywording.
    You have the option of selecting title, caption, etc to appear in a Slide Show, on Print, or on a webpage created with LR.
    If you go to the LR Help menu and type "title", or "caption" in the search box you will find plenty of advice for this.

  • URGENT- Exporting jpg from LR with title and captions: how?

    Hi,
    I need to email some pix before midnight.
    In LR metadata section I have info (title and caption). I did export pix as JPGs but can't find the info when I open the pictures now in a folder on my desktop.
    How can I make sure the info is attached to the photo? Should I uncheck "Minimize metadata"?
    Thanks for your help.

  • Keyboard shortcut for editing titles and captions

    Hi there,
    I'd like to edit the titles and captions of a bunch of photos (the contents of an album, for example), and I'd like to know if there is some combination of keyboard shortcuts so that I can do it which constantly using the mouse.
    In other words, I'd like to edit the title of a photo, the caption, then the title of the next photo, the caption, etc.
    Any suggestions?

    Here are the iPhoto keyboard shortcuts - http://www.apple.com/support/iphoto/shortcuts/

  • Photo Titles and Captions on Ipad Mini 3

    I want to add titles and captions to my photos on my new Ipad Mini 3 - just like you can do in iPhoto on a mac desktop, though I understand this has been discontinued for the ipad mini. It seems quite absurd that I can't name and file my photos properly in the main photos app (beyond selecting to put into albums) - has anyone found a good solution, add-on or way around this? I'm an iPad newbie so the answer may be obvious! Thanks for your help guys.

    Hi, Yes you can add captions,edit and add titles.  Just go to the app store and type in the search box what you are looking for.  Example Photo captions, photo collage or what ever you are looking for.  You will then see what apps are available to buy.  Have Fun!

  • Searching 'Title' and 'Caption' metadata

    I've searched a bit on this and am not getting anywhere. The issue I am having is when I apply content to the Title and Caption fields of metadata, they are not searcheable. Meaning, when I use the 'Find' section on the sidebar, it doesn't locate images that I have confirmed have the content I am searching for. I've made sure that when using 'Find,' I have all 'Anywhere' selected for 'Text' and 'Contains Any' for 'Rule.' Also, 'All Dates' is selected for 'Date.'
    I can't help but think I am missing something amazingly simple.
    Thanks in advance.

    jimburgess, John O'Connor, DonRicklin...thanks for the help. Although I thought I had made extremely sure that I had no other filters in place to skew my metadata search results, I must have missed something. Although I can't remember exactly what it was that made my search start working, I believe it was related to both apply "cmd-L" to start fresh and then looking under the 'Folders' panel to see matching photos as some of you had recommended.
    Really appreciate the help.

  • How can i type international alphabet characters into keywords, title, and captions in Lightroom 4?

    How can i type international alphabet characters into keywords, titles, and Captions in Lightroom 4?  Usual Microsoft key shortcuts not working.

    I haven't found a way to do that directly, but there is a workaround. It' s a bit cumbersome, so it's only good for the occasional character.
    In MS Word or any other text editor create a file that contains all the international characters you need.
    When you need to insert one of these characters into Lr (captions, title, keywords) copy the character from your text document and paste it into Lr where needed.
    On Windows Ctrl + C / V works fine.

We currently have a subscription that allows the programs on two computers, but now I need 5 computers to be updated with CC.

    Hi,
    I presume that the new configuration is missing some parts as you seem to have the IP address of the external interface configured staticly on the interface but you have not configured any default route on the firewall? (Original configuration got default route dynamically and added it to the routing table)
    You also mentioned that you were able to connect to the Internet which would indicate there was indeed a default route with the new configuration?
    I am a bit confused about the host mask on the external interface (/32 - 255.255.255.255) ? Does the ASA really let you configure a host address on the interface? It can't lead anywhere as there is no next hop with a host mask. I think the ASA even blocks using a /31 mask link network which works with Cisco Routers.
    I guess I would go through the basic troubleshooting step when the new configuration is in use
    Check logs for any blocked connections or error messages
    Check the Static PAT (Port Forward) configuration with the "packet-tracer" command
    Capture traffic on the ASAs external interface (with the ASA itself) and confirm that you are seeing the TCP SYN of any connection attempts, or perhaps capture ICMP

  • Titles and Captions

    I imported an album from iPhoto. All the photos were titled and captioned. The pictures showed up just fine in iMovie, but non of the titles or captions. Do I have to redo all that or is there some way to have them show up?

    Matt--The problem with iDVD is that all captions and titles are displayed against a blackish grid that cuts off the bottom of a lot of the photos. This grid shows up even if there isn't a title or caption.
    In my first attempt to burn a disk from iDvd, it played fine for about 10 minutes. Then froze up and displayed the message "system error 69902". I couldn't go forward or back.

  • Bugs iBooks Author review widgets and text sections

    This week since updating software iTunes and on iPad 3 using Mac bookpro with Mac OS 10.7.5 the review widgets in iBook Author has a bug, which removes part of the questions and part of the answers. I am using the most recent version of iBooks Author.Any suggestions or advice? Also, another bug is that text sections have been affected to some degree with sections of sentences removed.All other wigets are running normal.

    Hello,
    I also had this issue, particularly in the Review and Pop-Over widgets. Sections of text were absent only when I previewed on iPad or Mac. This occured on OS X v10.9 Mavericks for me, so it does not seem to be isolated to one operating system. I was also running the latest version of iBooks Author.
    I was able to resolve this issue by rewriting the text in slightly different wording. Simply deleting the text and replacing it with the same text did not help. I had to actually rewrite different text that basically meant the same thing. I was not able to figure out what about the origional text was causing the problem. Try typing a variety of different sentences. Chances are, some will cause the error and some won't.
