Import Bridge CS4 metadata into LR3?

Is it possible to import metadata into LR3 that I've created in Bridge CS4?
Another thread here said it's possible, but there was no explanation on how to proceed.

Yes it is possible.
The "metadata shuttle" between Bridge and Lr is the XMP-file.
( As an aside: Strictly speaking LR writes metadata to xmp-file (side-car file) only in the case of Raw images, whereas in the case of JPGs, TIFFs, PSDs the metadata is written into the header of the file. I suspect that this is the same in Bridge. But in >Catalog Settings >Metadata tab the term "XMP" is used indiscriminately.)
To import the metadata that was created in Bridge in Lr, do a <Read metadata from file> via >Metadata >Read Metadata from file (in the Library Module), or >Photo >Read metadata from file (in the Develop Module).
Please be aware that by < read metadata from file> the complete set of metadata will be imported, including any develop steps you might have done in Bridge, and this will overwrite all metadata already done in Lr (including develop edits which are also metadata). I believe this will even be so in case you have done no develop steps in Bridge, i.e. any develop steps done in Lr will be overwritten with "0". <Read metadata from file> cannot be undone, and there will be a warning to that effect. A selective reading of metadata (for instance keywords only) is not possible.
So you have to import the metadata from Bridge as a first step right after importing the photo in Lr, and before you do anything in Lr.
The "metadata shuttle" works also from Lr to Bridge if you <Write metadata to file>.
Color labels will be imported correctly only if the textual descriptions for the individual labels are identical in Bridge and in Lr.

  • How to import XMP-MP metadata into organizer

    I have a fairly large number of photos with face tag metadata.  Since Adobe is part of the working group that developed the XMP metadata standard, imagine my surprise to find out that Photoshop Elements 11 doesn't use it!
    Is there any external program you guys know about to import face tag metadata into the organizer?  I used Windows Photo Gallery to do the face tagging and it properly writes the metadata to the XMP fields.  Problem is the photoshop organizer doesn't read the XMP fields!  It's using it's own standard(?)
    We are talking thousands of photos here so re-tagging is just not an option.  Is there a way to get photoshop to import the tags and regions?
    Struggling User

    I think most of us who deal with large amounts of photos usually have a multi-application approach to things.  No one application does it all.  I crossed the 10,000 image point some time back and the thought of face tagging all that again makes me more than a little queasy!
    I looked at PSE 11's organizer and realized it was very close to what I want.  I'm going to use PSE for pixel editing anyway so it looks like an ideal one-size-fits-all application.  However, of course I now know PSE doesn't use tags in the same way as others.  So it's just a deal breaker plain and simple.
    Right now I use:
    Photo Gallery (formerly Window Live Photo Gallery) for organization and face tagging and subject tagging
    GeoSetter for location tagging by the way it recognizes the Microsoft face tag data so I can use the people tags to sort in that app too
    ExifTool for metadata manipulation where needed (camera data or other interesting info)Also note the ExifToolGUI (no longer maintained also recognizes the Microsoft face tag metadata)
    Photoshop Elements for pixel editing
    I use the face tags as keyword tags so you get a double benifit.  The big deal of course however is the face region tag.  Having a picture of many people and a separate list of keywords isn't helpful.  You only know that John Smith is in the photo somewhere but you don't know which person he is!  Like you said however, it's not important to everyone.
    I will keep researching this.  I'm betting someone has written an app to extract one set of data and make it available to another app.

  • Importing TSV Captions/Metadata into Lightroom?

    Does anyone know if it is possible to import a TSV Metadata file into lightroom? I can't seem to find any option for this. Thinking about moving to Lightroom and the only way I can bring 400,000 captions with me is to hopefully Import. If I can't I'm probably staying put. Thanks for any suggestions.

    Hello,
    Maybe you can use CustomMetaData Plugin http://www.robcole.com/Rob/ProductsAndServices/CustomMetadataLrPlugin/

  • How to import Bridge CS4 photo gallery into Dreamweaver CS4?

    I'm a novice when it comes to web design, but am starting to master DW CS4. While searching for a way to create good looking photo galleries I found an online video explaining how to do it using Bridge. The process in Bridge was strainght forward and simple. However, I have not found how I can bring the photo gallery I created in Bridge into a page based on a template in Dreamweaver. Can it be done? How?
    I designed a template for our website which I would like to use for any photo galleries in order to maintain the same "look and feel" and ease of navigating within our website (www.aquacomgroup.com).
    Please help!

    I'm having the same problem & desperate to find out how to do this!! Help!!

  • Bridge CS4 Metadata Writing Errors

    When trying to write info into one field (IPTC Source field) on numerous image files (Select all), Bridge will not respond, it acts as if it is applying the metadata then when files are deselected, nothing. The metadata is not entered in any of the images. Anyone? They are all JPG files, granted there are a lot of them, about 200, but I have been able to make this work in the past and lately bridge has been remarkably quirky in this regard. I have been having similar issues with the keyword function as well.
    eudaimonx

    May have figured this out,...there was a rogue .pdf in the same folder as the jpgs, removed this file to another folder and all seems to be well. Not sure why .pdf messes metadata writing up though...hmmm

  • Why when I add/import bridge CS6 photos into Lightroom 5 the photo totals don't match?

    I have added about 3,200 photos into Bridge CS6 and many have been edited.  I went into Lightroom to Library/Import/add and only about 2800 were added.  Anyone know why I don't see all of them?  I even double check the import and don't see any new ones that I missed.  Hope it's something simple.

    Found it.
    At first I was scared off because LR showed the same amount of photos to be imported the second time as it did before the first import.
    Fortunately, the second import did nothing but import the new photos.
    Thanks.

  • Importing Bridge Web Gallery into template with java drop down menu

    The iframe option from the tutorial David Powers referred readers to in the Bridge discussion board was easy and looks great....  EXCEPT the iframe covers up my java script dropdown navigation menu.  Is there an easy way to fix this, or do I have to use the more cumbersome alternate method?
    I built my site using a template I created in Dreamweaver. This complicates using the alternate method described in the David Powers tutorial which adds page elements to the index.html file created by Bridge.  How do I take what I need from that file and place it into the page based on my site's template?
    (Sorry to repeat my question in both discussion boards.  Got a not-very-helpful direction from the moderator of the other discussion board to ask the question here instead of there.)

    I should probably add that i am working in asp!

  • ERPI : Unable to create mappings in Import Format / pull metadata into ERPI.

    Hi All,
    I am strugling to set up metadata rules in ERPI. I am unable to set up Import Formats as i can not see the source segments.
    This is 11.1.2.1 System.
    --registered the source system with EBS system details, and able to initialize successfully.
    --registered Target system ( EPMA planning application) successfully,here i am able to view  Target dimension  Names, Data Table column Names, Target Dimesnion Class in 'Diemnsion details' tab
    -- Could retrieve Source Acconting Entity with it's details
    --Created Import Format with with Accounting Entity , Source system, Target system names.
    But in the Mappings area,( Data Load Mapping Tab) , Source Segment  fileds are not populated with source segments.Instead all the drop down boxes are empty ( few fields are even disabled) . I think, due to this, when i try to create Metadata rules, in Metadata section, the Dimesnion drop down list shows empty.
    Any one has exact idea on where i am missing ?

    Hi Jeff,
    I have clicked 'Refresh Metadata' button which  is there on 'Target Applciation' section.But still Source segments f drop down lists in 'Data Load Mappings' tab  of 'Import Format' section are empty and even few  fileds are disabled.

  • How do I import Bridge keywords and metadata to CS6 from CS4 so that I don't lose them if CS4 is not

    I have hundreds of keywords and metadata including Ratings and Labels using CS4 and Bridge CS4.
    It is time to replace my PPC Mac with a new Intel Mac.
    I am going to install CS6 on the new Intel Mac without installing CS4.
    By default.... this eliminates ALL keywords and ratings and labels from my Bridge browser. The keywords will still be present on the files but Not present in Bridge keywords list and all ratings and labels will be lost.
    Making a copy of Bridge CS4 metadata to another computer is quite simple.
    Simply copy All of the Bridge CS4 application support folder to the other computer.
    The question then becomes.... can I aslo do this with CS6 without introducing an incompatibility?
    1. incompatible due to CS6 application support.
    2. incompatible due to transfer from a PPC (APM) to Intel (GUID).
    This concern results from an Bridge CS4 export problem I experienced.
    Bridge CS4 will export all of your keywords and you can import them from a text file but it has some odd troubles. (try it and you will see)
    This does Not mean that CS6 has the same troubles.
    What do I require to preserve existing metedata and keywords that exist on a PPC using CS4 and import them into CS6 using Intel?
    Sound simple?
    I doubt it.
    The points are.
    1. CS4 not installed.
    2. CS4 source is PPC not Intel.
    3. Ratings and Labels are metadata that Are Not part of the file metadata and unique to Bridge only.
    4. Keyword Search and keyword Use requires that Bridge have keyword list, otherwise Finder is the far more useful browser and the new version of Bridge will require hours of keyword listing.
    I don't want to spends hours retyping keywords lists in Bridge.

    Ratings are NOT placed into the file under CS4 Bridge and neither are
    Labels.
    That depends on your file type and settings voor Camera Raw.
    Like Curt stated usually metadata is written in to the file itself. Only Raw files can't be written to and by default they create a XMP file, also called Sidecar XMP files (and do have the same filename, only a different extension called .xmp). These files are also by default hidden in Bridge but If you use Bridge to move files they travel along with the original.
    If you move or copy them using finder you have to be sure these XMP files are also copied with the originals to the new location.
    Using the menu View / show hidden files should reveal the XMP files.
    An other option for the Camera Raw prefs is to set metadata to the Camera Raw database instead of written to sidecar XMP files ( to my knowledge using sidecar files has been the default since about CS3).
    Now here it becomes a bit tricky and I only can tell you my findings, not to be confused with true facts. (and mind you, it is at least 5 years ago I was on a PPC and not even remember which OSX 10 was able to work on it, I just present the acting of CS6 on an intel Mac Pro with OSX 10.7, but I don't believe the difference in location is that much)
    Having written the Metadata to the Camera Raw Database your image settings get written to a file in the user library preferences folder called logically "Adobe Camera Raw Database". But also some info gets added to the Camera Raw Cache folder (User library / Caches/ Adobe Camera Raw) in a file called index.dat.
    Also not having set metadata to xmp sidecars stores the ACR settings in a new .dat file with a unique number (not to be traced as a corresponding filename. And also the default maximum is set to 1 GB of space and when full the oldest files are overwritten with the new ones.
    Personally I use converted DNG files that are capable of writing metadata to so all info and settings are in the file itself and I don't need to bother about central storage that can get lost. The downside is that changes to a DNG need to save the whole file instead of a small xmp file and probably reading cache takes more time then getting info from central storage but I like to be on the safe side and speed is not really needed to be nailed down to split seconds in my workflow.
    Keywords are stored as a file in the Bridge preferences but Like Curt already stated exporting the old list first and then via the same route import again to CS6 should solve your problem and they will be back as persistent, otherwise the files in the content window show as italic and sadly enough have to be made persistent one by one with right click mouse menu, so that is not really an option for you.
    Exporting the list does create a text file that can also be altered manually with a simple text app and as said, again be imported in newer versions as Curt described earlier.
    Making a copy of Bridge CS4 metadata to another computer is quite simple.
    Simply copy All of the Bridge CS4 application support folder to the other computer.
    Well, in fact it is true to call copying this folders a simple task but replacing the existing new CS6 would not be my method. The biggest change for Bridge CS6 was the transition to 64 bit and I lack the knowledge for this but also cache format for thumbs and previews has been different for every version.
    But if you have located the CS4 folder for Bridge in your PPC user library / application support / Adobe / Bridge CS4 you should find a file called 'Adobe Bridge Keywords.xml' and it is fairly safe to replace this CS4 version with the new CS6 version.
    Also custom settings for the output module can be copied (however to my memory the option for custom settings in Output where introduced in CS5) and collections can be copied.
    So for your keywords the copy option might work, rating and labeling for Raw files they will be read in CS6 if they are stored as XMP. ACR settings idem but CS6 ACR has a new (2012) conversion mode that has different settings that do not work with previous settings (unless you first choose to use the 2010 conversion as default Raw setting.
    If it is in the Central Data Base I would start trying to replace the CS4 with the CS6 edition (after back up of existing CS6 version) and see what happens. If it works your out of trouble.
    You can also open the Camera raw Database as a text file but there is a lot of data in. Maybe scripting would be able to reveal those data and transfer to XMP but you have to visit the dedicated Scripting forum for this.
    And while you state to have not installed CS4 anymore it might be wise to reinstall it (but first make a proper back up of the previous mentioned folders and files to be on the save side.
    This gives you the opportunity to export keywords properly and if needed you can use Show Items from subfolders option with filter and set preferences to XMP sidecar to refresh the rating and labels to those XMP files. Just an escape route that might not be as painstakingly as it looks at first sight, just use the options for Bridge to filter.

  • Importing CS4 Project into CS5.5

    Can't get playback to the monitor from the timeline is the main issue (using a BMD HD Extreme I/O card). I can double click the video files in the bin and get playback to the monitor, but not from the timeline. The CS4 project is a 4 x 3 SD project. So far, I've simply double clicked the CS4 project file to open the project in CS5.5. Nothing. And, I've opened a new project in CS5.5 with the settings exactly as they were in the CS4 project. Nothing. I've made certain all tracks are active, etc.
    Anyone have advice on this?
    Thanks,
    Bill

    I should add that after setting up the CS5.5 project with settings matching the CS4 project, I imported the CS4 project into it. Again, no playback to the monitor.

  • How do I find images in LR 2.4 (imported from CS4 Bridge) that have color labels already assigned In CS4 Bridge? I have set both Bridge and LR color labels text to match (eg Green for green, etc).

    How do you find images in LR 2.4 that have been imported from CS4 Bridge and have been assigned a color label in Bridge?  I have set both LR 2.4 and my CS4 Bridge to match the text for each color to be the same (eg. Green for green, etc), and the filter search in LR 2.4 shows that a label has been assigned, but I am unable to identify and locate the specific images in LR 2.4 that have had a color label assigned from CS4 Bridge.  I have tried to search via attribute, metadata, text, etc...Is it necessary to re-assign color labels all over again, image by image, in LR 2.4, or is there a way to automatically have the color labels assigned in CS4 Bridge be assigned and searchable to the images after they have been imported into the LR 2.4 catalogue from the Bridge program?

    JohnM.
    I closed both programs and re-imported photos and re-tried the action of having LR  read the XMP metadata from the CS4 files, and it seems to work now just fine...don't know why now and not before, but thanks much. Is there a way to have LR do this automatically upon import of images from CS4?  I tried to do this with an import metadata preset, but no luck.  It seems as if I can only do this once the images have already been imported into LR, and then to have to have LR read the metadata from the CS4 Bridge files.  thanks gain.

  • Import BRIDGE collections + picture tags into Lightroom 3

    Hi everybody
    I am just evaluating LIGHTROOM 3.3 and I have CS4 Design Premium Package including BRIDGE CS4. NowI have a huge amount of picture and gave them a lot of picture tags like stars and colors etc and I have several COLLECTIONS under Bridge (NAME.filelist).
    How do I get all the COLLECTIONS and picture TAGs of my BRIDGE environment into Lightroom?
    Does anbody have an idea?
    Thanks in advance and merry X-mas to all of you
    Georg

    Hi WW,
    thx a lot for your help.
    regarding collections I found the following article here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3196896#3196896
    Your help regarding tags is surely helpful and solve the problem, but it is only a work-around.
    For my understanding the three products out of one house (PhotoShop Elements Organizer, Bridge and Lightroom) doing about the same, should ...
    work the same (same idea, same behaviour, organizing by path/subfolders instead of cataloges etc.)
    maintain the same database and files (LR should recognize the collections from BR and Vice Versa, use the same cache files etc.) and should
    be compatible to each other (e.g. Tags, Collections etc)
    This is not pointing at you WW  , I hope someone of the ADOBE Developer team is reading this!!
    Actually I suggest ADOBE
    to eliminate Organizer and integrate the good functions into BRIDGE.
    give BRIDGE as the free of charge picture organizer to PS Elements and to PS CS
    change LIGHTROOM into an payable upgrade of BRIDGE with enhanced functionality of the free of charge BRIDGE
    better integration of PSE, PS CS and Lightroom
    Beside that I suggest to get rid of the Catalog idea of Lightroom with it's import/export and synchronization needs and instead use or at least integrate the idea of BRIDGE to get pictures structured and organized by path and subfolders, as this is anyhow how the pictures are stored already for most of us. I doubt that anybody just throw all files into one big subdirectory and get the organized into cataloges. But please keep collections as they are helpful to quickly collect some pictures to commonly work on them. by drag & drop
    Thanks
    Merry X-Mas and a Happy New Year

  • Custom XMP panels don't show in Bridge CS4's Metadata palette

    I've got a CS4 custom XMP panel working (using the "Generic" panel in the SDK) but I can't get it to display in the metadata palette of Bridge CS4 (the thing normally bottom right in the default Bridge "essentials" view).
    In the old CS3 format, you could do this by adding an "fbname" attribute to fields of the custom panel. How do we now do this in the new SDK?
    The Bridge metadata palette is mentioned on page 25 of the SDK programmer's guide, but the example given is merely of Dublin Core keywords (i.e. dc:subject) so shows in the Bridge metadata palette by default already.

    Following on from this question, is it possible to build up a Metadata panel group of fields drawn from different namespaces? (by group I mean something like the IPTC Core label and arrow which expands into the IPTC fields).
    One would have a heading such as "My data", which when expanded shows x fields from one namespace #1 and y fields from namespace #2. I've tried to do this by leaving the namespace blank and hardcoding it and the prefix into the properties' name argument - eg http://ns.adobe.com/photoshop/1.0/photoshop:Urgency
    Hope this isn't a hijack!

  • How to import Bridge Labels into Lightroom 3.4

    I have  close to 500,000  images all neatly labeled in Bridge.  They have the color labels for: (red) select,  (yellow)second, review, to do (the basic standard adobe created labels)  nothing customized.
    After importing my entire collection into lightroom (27 hours) nothing at all remained of these labels.  Making this thing entirely useless.
    I cannot imagine why two adobe products would not share defaults like this or am I missing something obvious?
    Does anyone know how to import the labels from Bridge into lightroom? (keep in mind that I know nothing of lightroom so make it baby steps)
    thanks

    You also wrote:
    "Even the stars from Bridge do not register in Lightroom..."
    Yes, they do.
    Allow me to do a bit of explanation how LR works, here:
    Bridge and LR work differently, and it is important to understand this difference.
    Bridge works as a file browser. Whatever you put into a folder / or a drive  Bridge will "see" it  (as long as it is image-related).
    For instance if you do a name change for an image file or a folder in your OS, Bridge has no trouble "seeing" the changed file or folder.
    LR doesn't work as a file browser. LR creates and works with a database called Catalog. LR does not "see" an image-file unless it is imported. Importing means adding it to the Catalog. You can have any number of images on a drive / in a folder that LR does not "see" as long as they are not imported into LR.
    That means, -  in the case of a change of file name and/or folder name that you do outside of LR (for instance in Bridge), - that LR cannot "see" this folder / image file. LR still has this image / folder in the Catalog under its old name and when it looks for it, it can't find it because the name has changed. LR then flags this file / folder as "missing". "Missing" in this sense doesn't mean that the folder  / the image is not on the drive; "missing" means that LR cannot find it.
    LR can also create, work with and read xmp-files, also called sidecar files. XMP-files are small files that contain mnetadata, such as the camera settings, the date & time, the title, caption, etc - but also develop / edit metadata. When you use the Camera Raw feature in Bridge and edit the image, Bridge writes the data into the xmp-file. Also, things like color labels and ratings stars are written into the xmp-file.
    To bring these into LR you have to make LR read the xmp-file. You do this in the Library Module by going to >Metadata > Read Metadata from File.
    But be careful here. When LR reads the data from file that means also that whatever you did in LR (and did not save to xmp), will be overwritten when there is a conflict. So for instance, if you did image editing in Bridge, and late you did image editing in LR (on the same image) and you then select "Read Metadata from File", your LR-edits will be supplanted by the Bridge-edits.
    To resolve this you have to make LR your only image editor. Also it is advisable to save your LR edits to xmp. You do this via Ctrl / Cmd. + letter "S" or > Metadata > Save Metadata to file. If you do this Bridge will be able read and display your LR-edits.
