Import - Moving Folders Around After the Fact | Learn Lightroom 4 | Adobe TV
To keep Lightroom's database up to date with where your photos are stored, it is critical that you use Lightroom to move your photos and folders when you need to move them to a new location.
http://adobe.ly/JXWqwu
Even more of a very realistic situation is moving entire catalogues and photos from my internal drive in order clear up hard drive space and keep everything neatly together so that I can open the catalogue and photos later or even on another computer. There used to be a work-around in previous versions of Lightroom but LR4 doesn't allow for it the same way any longer.
Here's the situation with me. I work in the field. I take photographs constantly on location and I don't carry an external drive with me. Often times I have to shoot something, find a Starbucks, get my photos into LR, tweak em then get them sent off to the Company I'm working for. I start a new Catalogue for each Company, as I will work with 8-15 different Companies a year. The photos, as I had learned a few years back, all go into the same folder.
Now my HD is full. So if I do as you say here, I try and get LR to recognize an external drive. This is challenging enough but I managed to get it do see the external by importing a photo from the external drive into LR. Now I can just drag and drop the folders (that are just arranged by date and exist with all my other photos in the same folder of my hd) onto the external drive,right?
Wrong. "Could not complete the folder move. An unkown error occurred". No advice. No assistance as to how to figure out WHAT the error is, just a sort of "sorry" from LR4.
Please help me understand this. Many folks have indicated that I did it wrong to begin with but that doesn't change my situation. I think many people who are new to lightroom and start making different catalogues will be running into the same situation I'm in and it still has yet to be addressed in the last 4 versions.
Thank you for AdobeTV as it has been a great education on many other topics regarding LR4 and other Adobe products.

When I import a CD ablum that includes songs with co-artists, the album is saved once under the album name with all the songs from the main artist; then each song with a different co-artist is saved separately under the album title with just that song. Who do I prevent that or fix it after the fact, i.e., copy the single songs to the main album?
Why aren't songs with the same album art grouped together? - http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1468

Is there a way to recover old emails? I moved a few folders around on the hard disk and now my emails have reverted to Factory settings and all my old emails and address book have vanished. I am still running on 10.4.11 and Apple can not help me. Does anyone out there have any idea on how to recover my lost emails and/or addresses?
Well, your profile info says 10.4.11, and you are posting your question in the iMac (PPC) category. If you are running Snow Leopard, it must be a fairly recent Intel iMac.
In that case, you should definitely post your question here
https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.6_snow_leopard
where other Snow Leopard users can see your question. Restate the problem, what error messages you get, and what you have tried already (for trouble-shooting). -
Publish User Cert to AD after the fact
Hello all!
I was wondering if its possible to have the CA attempt to re-publish certs to AD after the fact (cert was already issued and an attempt was made to publish but failed) ?
Background - We didnt have our CA computer account in the "Cert Publishers" Group in our user domain. This led to event 80 being populated in the CA (Unable to publish to AD due to insufficent permissions)
I added our CA into that group and publishing to AD is working well but ONLY FOR NEW CERTS...
How do i tell the CA to attempt to publish the cert to AD for the already issued certs (Many...about 1000)
Thanks!I have accomplished my goal with the help of some VBS.
In a nutshell, this is the process i used
1) I first needed to create a text file containing serial numbers of the certificates i wanted to get imported into the User's AD Account (userCertificate). In my case there was about 1500 so this needed an automated way. This is the command i used to create
this text file
certutil -view -restrict "Disposition=20,CertificateTemplate=1.3.6.1.4.1.311........" -out SerialNumber > c:\Temp\Serials.txt
Disposition=20 Means Certificates that are Issued
CertificateTemplate=1.3.6.1.4.1.311........ Means the Custom Certificate Template OID that i am interested in
-out SerialNumber Means Output just the serial number
2) My next step was a need to take these serial numbers and somehow generate CER files for every one of them. I wrote a VBS script to parse through the above Serial Number text file and issue a command for every instance found. This is the command i used
from within the VBS file to generate a CER for the serials
oShell.Run ("%comspec% /c certutil -view -restrict ""SerialNumber=" & Values(1) & """ -out RawCertificate > c:\Temp\" & Values(1) & ".cer", 0 , True)
%comspec% /c allows the output of oShell.Run to be piped into a file
-restrict ""SerialNumber=" & aValues(1) & """ Means i am filtering the view to be limited/restricted to 1 certificate based on the serial number (Values(1)) is the serial number obtained from parsing 1 line of the Serials.txt File
-out RawCertificate Means spit out a Base64 Encoded blob and then pipe that to c:\Temp\" & Values(1) & ".cer (Once again the Values(1) refers to the parsed serial number. The file would look something like C:\Temp\1a2b3c4d5e6f1a2b.cer
3) I am now at a point where i have a directory (C:\Temp) full of CER files (my case was about 1500). I now need to import all of those CER files into Active Directory. The UPN is included in the certificate so when the command is issued, the certificate
is placed into the correct user's store without any additional modifications required. Once again i wrote a simple VBS script to Iterate through a Directory and for each file found run this command
oShell.Run ("%comspec% /c certutil -dspublish " & objFile.Path & " User", 0 , True)
certutil -dspublish Means Publish the file into AD
objFile.Path is the path to the individual CER file in the C:\Temp Directory
User instructs certutil to Publish the CER file to an Active Directory User (Obtained from the UPN attribute in the cert)
If anybody has any questions, or would like to request the individual VBS files, PM me anytime.
Thanks Fredrik for your assistance -
Help! I got rid of my old PC and the hard drive was destroyed. I forgot to deauthorize it in Itunes and now I can't access a lot of the songs in my library because it says too many computers have been authorized to play the music. IS there anywy I can deauthorize now, after the fact??
Deauthorize all computers
To deauthorize all your computers, follow these steps:
Click to open your account in iTunes (you may need to sign in with your Apple ID), or follow these steps:
Open iTunes and click iTunes Store.
Click Sign In and enter your Apple ID.
Click your Apple ID and select Account.
Click Deauthorize All.
NOTE: Apple limits the Deauthorize All option to once every 12 months. -
Changing the document page size after the fact.
Does anyone know of a way to change the page size globally after the fact?
I have sent a 200 page book created with Pages '08 to my printer. The work has a full bleed watermark in the background on a custom 7" X 11" document. I've just been informed that he needs to increase the paper size to 7.25 X 11.25 and have me increase the watermark so it can be trimmed down.
Is there a way to change all 200 pages or do I need to set-up a new document and do a whole lot of cut and paste?
Thanks in advance everyone.Your problem is that the change is not proportional.
However it is not a great change, 6.66% at most. If you don't mind a subtle change in height vs width, just create a pdf of the entire document and tell the printer to change the size on going to plate.
Alternatively you can simply scale it up the 6.66% which will make the height about 0.5" too high and trim away the excess.
The other way is only scale it up 2.27% which gives you the right height but leaves you with 0.1" less width.
Or you can go in between and have a compromise for both directions by scaling up 4.4%.
It depends if you have white margins in either direction that can take up the slack and also how much bleed you have on the watermark. You only need 1/8" to cover any trimming errors.
As this appears to be quite a long book and would need to be imposed up in signatures, I would imagine the printer must have the necessary imposition software to allow for creep etc, which should also allow for non-symmetrical scaling.
Don't you Americans ever feel at moments like these that you wish you weren't the last people in the world to not use metrics and rational paper sizes? -
AT&T Charging Deposit 5 months after the fact.
Anyone else experiencing this issue?
I purchasd a iPhone at Launch at a AT&T Retail Store. I had them run my credit and was told No Deposit was required and got a Pre-Approval Check Number. So bought the iPhone went home and activated it. When hooked into iTunes and went through the Application Process I input the Pre-Approval Check Number and no point did it tell me a Deposit would be required... Now 5 Months after the fact AT&T added $750 my Bill and only 2 days to pay it. And they are refusing to fix the problem...
Is this even legal?Why do you think you would lose the deposit by switching from a post paid plan to a Pay-As-You-Go?
A deposit is required for those with poor credit and payment history or with no credit which is usually refunded after 12 months of good payment history. If one cancels their contract, the deposit is not lost - it is held until the final bill is paid or the final bill is paid for out of the deposit with the balance refunded.
Since you received a credit pre-approval before activating your iPhone with no indication a deposit was required - had you failed the credit check during the activation with a deposit required at that time, you would have had the option to go with the Pay-As-You-Go plan instead of paying the deposit - an option many have used that prefer not paying a huge deposit in order to have a post paid plan.
Since AT&T made a mistake with your credit check and is now requiring a deposit, I was just providing you another option that AT&T would probably allow you to do instead of paying the deposit without charging you the $175 ETF.
Pay the $700 deposit then.

WHen I download an app it isn't able to access my pics and I can't do it after the fact either as it isn't in privacy to add
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again. -
Changing Layouts After-the-fact
Hi All-
I am rebuilding my company's website on our server where
previously it was outsourced, designed and hosted by another
company. I feel that this is a huge undertaking ... and my boss
thinks it should be easy. He wants me to look at the site that is
online now and transfer the images, info, etc over to Dreamweaver.
Anyone have any advice?
Anyway, my question is this:
When I started building the homepage I used the the
"twoColLiqHdr" page layout (where the sidebar is on the left and
the paragraph content is on the right). I want to change this so
that the sidebar is actually on the right and the content on the
left of the page. Can I change this since it is after the fact? If
so, how?
Thanks.This is a multi-part message in MIME format.

After the update to Lightroom 5.7, the profile of my lenses have disappeared in the camera calibration, how can I import them again because I gave you mine Extra gespeicher. I'm working on a PC.
Can we see a screenshot that includes the filename you're viewing with its extension and the camera Make list?
What is almost always the case when someone says they are missing most of their lens profiles is that their current image is not a raw file. It doesn't matter whether you shoot raw, it matters what the current images is. Maybe it is an exported JPG or a Edit-In-whatever result file that's a TIF or PSD or JPG.
Here are examples of the screenshot that I'm asking for:
Raw files show 24 items in the Make list:
While non-raw files have only 9 items + None in the Make list: -
CF9 - install Solr after-the-fact
We have a Windows 2003 server with Multiserver configuration of ColdFusion 9 (and subsequent 9.0.1 updater) installed. Unfortunately, we installed CF without selecting the Solr Search Server install option, and now are finding a need for it. What are our options for getting the Solr Search Server installed on the same server?
Searching through Google, I found some options but not sure which is best:
Solr Standalone Installer - seems to be for installing on a separate server, which we do not want to do. Unclear if this would be safe to install on same server as CF 9, and also would not give ability for any updates to be automatically updated.
Do a complete reinstall of CF 9 again on the server, but that would require extra effort and retesting of applications.
Install via CF 9 installation disk. One blog I found suggested to go through the installation process again, selecting to install with ear/war as multiserver, then would be able to select option to install Solr. We tried this on a test server, but were getting Solr errors (NullPointerException) when trying to create a new Solr collection.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I only wish Adobe had better documentation on this, as I would think it could happen more frequently.
Thanks!
TianaVery interesting question, Tiana. But to be honest, no, it doesn’t come up that often, at least that I’ve noticed (and I’m pretty active on these and other CF troubleshooting forums and lists).
As for solutions, I suspect you’ll find the first option below works well. As far as I know, there’s no problem at all running it on the same machine as CF. And I’d not worry as much about “updates”. It’s not often that updates seem to relate to the Solr engine (though I’ve not studied that really closely.)
But you’re right: it really ought to be easier to enable Solr after the fact (whether for the Standard/Server or Multiserver form of deployment). I too am surprised that it’s not come up before. I’ve just done a fair bit of googling hoping to find someone having discussed it, to no avail.
It would be a cool thing for someone to research/blog about. It may be fairly simple, just as enabling CF’s built-in web server or RDS features can be enabled after the fact, if you know what XML files to tweak. But then the Solr feature in CF runs as a service, so that has to be installed (I suspect that installer will do that), and then there are CF Admin configuration settings that need to be tweaked. I don’t use Solr enough myself to be excited to pursue this myself.
But do consider asking Ray Camden and/or Ben Nadel, who both offer a means on their blogs to answer specific questions. I think they’d be interested in this one, in particular, since it would be a great contribution to the community to document if there’s any solution. Ray can be reached via http://www.raymondcamden.com/contact.cfm, and Ben at http://www.bennadel.com/ask-ben/ask-ben-nadel.htm.
If you find an answer some day, please do share it here. Hope that helps.

Proxy media created after the fact
In another thread I was trying to find out why my multicam clips were frozen in place in the angles viewer while I edited them in the timeline. One reader's suggestion was to convert the clips making up the multiclips into proxy media. I did so; right-click on clips and select "Transcode media..." then "Create Proxy Media." That all worked as it should (though it did not remedy the angles viewer problem) however what I'm wondering now is just what did I do to my project? I just blindly transcoded to proxy but what does that mean to the edit I'm doing? How does this affect eventual output? Could someone please explain the ramifications of this action?
alan bJust creating proxy media does nothing to your project.
I suppose you also changed the preferences to use proxy media (Preferences->Playback, "Use proxy media"), otherwise you'd still be using the original or optimized media all the same.
All the edits you make are preserved, whether you work in proxy or not.
The usual workflow when you need proxy is simple:
1) create proxy media if you haven't already (as you did)
2) switch to proxy media in preferences (as I suppose you also did)
3) when finished, switch the preferences again ("Use origina/optimized media") so that the final export is done in full quality. (In the meantime you can of course export "draft" versions in proxy mode)
Note: if you switch proxy *before* creating proxy media for all the clips, you'll get the "offending" clips appearing in red with a yellow warning; if that happens, just create the proxy media after the fact and everything will be fine. -
