Importing and maintaining tag structure

I recently had to reload Windows due to a bad hardware driver or bad patch from MS, not sure which. Anyway, I'm now going through trying to restore my Elements catalog. I tried just opening the catalog file and I received an error, and was also unable to repair. Since I KNOW that my watch folders didn't work 5% of the time, I know I can't trust my backups. So, I'm trying to restore by creating a new catalog and having it import my photo directory which was on a separate drive. When I import, all of my keyword tag levels are "flattened". Instead of having categories->subcategories->tags, I now just have tags.
Is there a way to import and maintain the other levels of structure?
Thanks,
Kevin

What did you try (exactly how did you try to open the catalog file) and exactly what error message appeared?
     I tried just double-clicking the file, as well as going through Elements convoluted File -> Catalog -> menus.
No clue what watched folders have to do with backups.
     Really? Think about it. I dump a bunch of photos into a watch folder, some or none of them get imported and added to the catalog. Unless I manually go through and add them, the next backup (via PSE backup function) will not include those files. If I need to restore, those files are now missing.
I would never advise this unless all attempts to open the previous catalog file have failed. This is a last resort. Information will be lost compared to what existed in the previous catalog file. Your flattened folder structure is just one piece of information that is lost. Categories and sub-categories are lost. I suspect that there might be some photos where the tags are missing. None of your albums/collections, version sets, stacks will come through if you re-import.
     Exactly my predicament.
In the future, regular backups (that you can trust) of both your catalog file and photos, to a different physical disk, should be considered mandatory.
     Really??

Import iPhotos Events into Photos and maintain previous structure?

I'm a long time iPhoto user and have about 45,000 photos from over a 30 year period that are organized into separate events with the event title being Year-Month-Activity. Such as "2015-4 Easter". It was painful to create those events but once they were done it was fantastic. We can quickly and easily pull-up all photos from my daughter's first birthday from 25 years ago, or look at all of her birthday photos. I probably have a thousand events and want to maintain that event structure when I move the library to any new photo program.
I'd like to use the new Photos program but when I imported the photos using one of my 'test' Macbooks ,Photos did (mostly) get it right and maintained most of the events in an album it created called iPhoto events. That's fine for the legacy photos I'm importing. HOWEVER as far as I can tell, from that point-on I can no longer add an Event and title it the same way in that iPhoto Events album. So once I move my legacy library to Photos, the old stuff will be in the IPhotos Events photos and the new photos will have to be placed into a new Album. So it will force me to split them.
Where this is important is when I point my Plex Server at them so that my extended family can view all of our old photos using Plex. Currently I can just point Plex to the iPhotos library and it maintains the Events structure when it shows them on the TV.....which is awesome. Family can see individual events and open just the one they want to see. Not sure how Plex is going to deal with the new Photos app but that's a question for me to post on their forum...
My question for this forum: is there a way to directly import legacy iPhoto events into Photos automatically so that each Event now becomes an Album in Photos with the old Event name?
Thanks!

Moments in Photo are the new Events. There's a way to simulate events in Photos.
When the library was first migrated there was a folder created titled iPhoto Events and all migrated iPhoto Events are represented by an album in the folder. To open the sidebar if it's not open use the Option+Command+S key combination.
When new photos are imported into the Photos library go to the Last Import smart album, select all the photos and use the File ➙ New Album menu option or use the key combination Command+N. Name it as desired. It will appear just above the iPhoto Events folder where you can drag it into the iPhoto Events folder
When you click on the iPhoto Events folder you'll get a simulated iPhoto Events window.
The downside to the simulation is that the Album/Events can only be sorted automatically by Title. But they can be sorted manually.
Ask Apple for more sorting options and/or other features in Photos via https://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html.

Can I import and keep folder structure?

I have thousands of pics and videos. I'm willing to buy in to the whole iCloud experience (literally), but in my small experiments, I couldn't see how to import and KEEP the folders containing numerous pics. For example, if I have 1000s of FAMILY pics, TRAVEL pics, and FRIEND pics, all in separate folders. Can I import these pics (currently on Onedrive; I assume I can't import direct from Onedrive to iCloud.com?) keeping the separation and folder breakdown I worked so long to organize? Every attempt I've made, strips the folder and throws all pics in together. Yes, I know we can use clever tricks like geotags and dates to separate the photos to an extent. But most of my photos don't contain that metadata. And moreover, I've already manually done the work to my liking. Any ideas?

Import your folder structure to iPhoto, and then migrate the iPhoto Library to Photos.
iPhoto will create an event for each folder you import and name it like the folder. You can simply drag the whole folder structure onto the iPhoto icon.
When you open the iPhoto Library in Photos, Photos will create an album for each iPhoto event.

Is it possible to modify the tag structure tree and the role map via scripting?

We use unstructured FrameMaker to produce training materials which we distribute as tagged PDF to meet accessibility requirements.
When FrameMaker creates a tagged PDF, it does a fairly good job of populating the structure based on the PDF setup information for the paragraph formats in the FrameMaker documents. However, there are some limitations in the support that FrameMaker provides. For example, almost all paragraphs are assigned to the P role even if they are headings and should be mapped to H1-H6.
We want to be able to easily post-process a PDF that has been generated from FrameMaker to fix some of the tag structure issues (including tag names and the role map) so that the PDF will provide the optimum experience for a user of the JAWS screen reader.
I spent some time reading the SDK documentation but didn't find much information about manipulating a tagged PDF via the API, especially via scripting.
Does anyone have any examples or references which explain how to do it?

AFAIK, it's not possible with a script. You might want to ask in the SDK forum, as it could be possible with a plugin.

How to import pdf with hyperlink and and maintain its hyperlink while exporting it as HTML?

We can import pdf in indesign either using plaacemultiplefile script or using place submenu under file menu but both of them import pdf as graphic object and lost its all hyperlink. no doubt when i again export its as pdf than hyperlink are there as it is but when i export it as HTML,IDML or other format than than all hyperlink are lost so is there any way to maintain this if no than is there any way to write some new script utilities which will do the same .one solution i think is first convert pdf into docx and than import it as docx indesign import it as text frame and maintain all hyperlink but in this process pdf file lost its some formating while converting it into docx .

I probably should've remembered "rtfm" before writing all that. It seems to me now that I need to create a Master Page for each of the different layouts, then dynamically select the one I want to use at run-time, maybe with a script event ? The Master Page creation is a bit messy ... the only way I seem to be able to get multiple Master Pages is to open each Word doc, let Livecycle import it, then copy all the content into a new Master Page in my main document. That is, there doesn't seem to be a way to import a series of Word docs directly into separate Master pages of a single Livecycle form. I'll continue with the "read" part of "rtfm" ...

Export Import to Maintain Test and Production Environments

We have developed an application using Locally built Database Providers in Oracle Portal 9.0.2.6 which is installed to 2 schemas, has 5 different providers, and over 100 Portal major components (Forms, Reports, and Calendars) and over 200 minor components (LOV's and Links). We have used export/import transport sets with some luck, but it is a struggle becuase the import procedures are not very robust. Many things (such as missing LOV's, corrupt components, preexisting versions, etc, etc.) can cause an import to fail. And the cleanup necessary to finally achieve a successful import can be very time-consuming.
Having a robust import mechanism is very important to our strategy for keeping installed (our own and clients') portal instances up-to-date with our latest release. Some of the enhancements that would make it much easier to develop and maintain Portal applications include:
Within the Portal:
1. Ability to copy an entire provider within the same portal (rather than one component at a time).
2. Ability to change the schema to which a Provider is associated.
3. When copying a component from one provider to another, the dependent items (i.e. LOVs and Links) should be copied to new second provider as well. (i.e. rather rebuilding each LOV in each provider and then editing each form to point to the new LOVs)
Transport Sets:
4. Should allow for changing provider names and provider schema, and global component name changes, and resetting unqiue id's on import (to create copy rather than overwrite).
5. Should allow the option to ignore errors and import all components which pass pre-check (rather than failing all components if all items do not pass pre-check).
How are other Portal Developers dealing with installing and then rolling out new sets of Locally built Database Providers from Development environments to Production? Are there any whitepapers on the best practices for replicating/installing a portal application to a new portal instance and then keeping it updated?
Oracle, are any of my wish-list items above on the future enhancement lists? Or have others figured out workarounds?
Thanks,
Trenton

There are a couple of references which can be found on Portalstudio.oracle.com that are of some use:
1. A FAQ for Portal 9.0.2.6 Export/Import http://portalstudio.oracle.com/pls/ops/docs/FOLDER/COMMUNITY/OTN_CONTENT/MAINPAGE/DEPLOY_PERFORM/9026_EXPORT_IMPORT_FAQ_0308.HTM
2. Migration Instructions by Larry Boussard (BRUSARDL)
3. Migrating Oracle Portal from Dev Systems to Production Systems bt Dheeraj Kataria.
These are all useful documents for a successful first-time Export-Import. However, the limitations and lack of robustness I listed in my first post, make the process so time-consuming and error fraught as to not be a practical development strategy.

Import in itunes and add tag

I want to add many compilation folders of mp3's to Itunes. I want to create a automator workflow which will automatically add a specific tag in grouping, year and also check as a compilation when I move the folders to the specific folder that the folder actions are appointed to.
I can't manage to work this out. Can anyone give me some tips?

I import a lot of my content from my external hard drive and i dont know which option i should use.
Use the 'Add to library...' option. If you have checked the 'Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library' (Preferences>Advanced>General), the files also will be copied to the 'iTunes Music folder location' as set in the preferences.
There's an article that describes the differences between the importing and adding functions here:

Import - Add to catalog won't maintain file structure

Deaar all,
I use Lightroom 4.3 on Mac OS-X 10.8.3. I recentrly clean-reinstalled the computer.
I copy my images from a memory card onto my harddrive. My folder structure looks like this:
.../<user>/Fotos/<year>/<month>/<date-event>/<images>.
Before reinstalling I could just import my images into Lightroom by adding to the catalog and the Folder structure in Lightroom would be the same as on the drive.
Now, if I try to import images, Lightroom creates in its catalog (the left of the Library window) new folders "on top of" the existing 'Fotos' folder. So I end up with something that looks like:
<Drive>
<Year>
   <Month>
Fotos
   <Year>   (can be the same as above)
       <Month> (can be the same as above)
When I try to show the parent folder, I get an error message at the top level (also shown the folder hierarchy where I want 2013-03 in the Fotos hierarchy):
What do I need to do to make Lightroom duplicate the folder structure on-disk during import?
Thank you for your help,
Karel

Indeed, I did change the user name from karel (backup) to Karel (current install).
Magic! I moved the Fotos folder to a new folder, let Lightroom find the missing top level Fotos folder and tried to import the march directory: it is in the right place!
I will just let it render the previews, then move the Fotos folder to where it was, point Lightroom to the new locatiion again and all should be well!
Thanks a lot!

Xlschedular and Xlcache Tag Importance

Hi Experts,
OIM (9.1.0)
I can see in xlconfig file under schedular and cache tag , there are multicast Address Defined. What is the importance
Last week I was facing issue with OIM redeployment with patch_weblogic.sh scripts. Scripts get Hanged and After 90 Minutes Give Error Cann't obtian the lock. It hanging on GSM Address is :
Once I remove the Multicast Address under the schedular Tag , Deployment got successful. But Later on I some issue came for a application which is using OIM , SO developer told me to include Multicast Address in schedular and make sure it should be the same address as defined for cache.
I make the changes , Now Admin server Comes up fine.
1) What is importance of Cache and Schedular ?
2) What is importance of multicast Address in Single Node and Cluster Env.
3) In Cluster Env , Should the Schedular to be up on both nodes or one Node .
Please Reply Asap.
Regards
Sourabh Gupta

Hi All ,
Multicast Address is Imp If you are Using OIM design Console , If You External Application Are Communicating to OIM.
In cluster Env it is important For Making the Nodes ( OIM1 and OIM2) in sync. If you define the multicast address different in xlconfig file of both the nodes , Your One of the managed server will get hang when it will try to sync with other Node.
Suppose Scheduler is working On One Node only and User login through Other Node . So to communicate that Multicast Address come into the effect.
Please Share Your Views Also , If have any

What text are u reading and from which transaction.
The following are the main parameters,
ID:
this is text id(U can find it in ur transaction,generally it will start with z)
LANGUAGE:
This depends on the language in which the text is maintained.For example En(english)
NAME:
No for which the text id is maintained,it may be deliver no or transport no.Depends on ur case.
OBJECT:
This represents mostly wether it is header data or item data respectively.so u can check this in ur transaction.
A short example as follows,
FORM read_text1 TABLES   g_t_lines STRUCTURE tline

Searchable hierarchical tag structure for content

I have a large number of PDF documents, the content of which I need to analyze and categorize according to an established taxonomy. I would like to be able to do the following:
Establish a hierarchical taxonomy tagging schema.
Highlight text and images and apply tags (multiple).
Search within and across documents for tagged content. (Even a search that returns just the location of the tagged content would be helpful)
Is this possi\ble? I have Acrobat Pro X.

Thanks for the reply.
I have the "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" disabled. So my song collection is not re-shuffled (or duplicated) by iTunes.
By having a directory structure:
Genre\Artist\Album\songs.mp3
I am able to locate and select songs (for playback in Winamp etc) in a manner convenient to me. The question is: How will I do this on the iPhone device? Will I have to create playlists of all sorts? Will be able to maintain this hierarchy on the devices?
Someone has already answered in the negative .. as nested sorting is not possible in iTunes and on the iPhone

Hi,
I'm searching for an app to help study for an exam.
Part of the studying strategy is to study by the previous exams questions. I have those (a lot of them) in text format.
The app would need to have:
- Support for multiple-choice questions;
- Easy, fast and automated way of importing the questions;
Would be nice to have:
- Ability to include a rich-text comment along with the right/wrong answer;
- Support for tagging each questions.

Difference between defining segment and maintaining segment for GL items

Hello All,
Can someone tell me the difference between 'Defining a Segment' (in enterprise structure) and 'Maintaining Segment for general ledger Items' (tcode FQ0300) and when is the later used?

Hi,
Segment reporting is part of functional reporting in sap. Segment reporting is required as per International Accounting Standard 14 for listed companies thats why it is defined in Enterprise structure .
Segment is maintained in profit
center master data from where it is derived, When you post to a GL account containing segment it gets posted to profit center. This is the basis purpose of maintaining segment at Gl account level. Segment reporting is gradually being replaced by business area. This is for you information.

Diff: Version on workflow builder and Maintain Active Plan version on SWU3

Group,
Can any one help me to understand the Version on workflow builder and Maintain Active Plan version on SWU3
Thanks in advance !
Richard A

Dear Richard Antony,
The Versioning in the Workflow is very important its some what simmilar to the version on any SAP Objets like Tables, Program etc.
Here Suppose any change comes in working workflow, then in stead of directly change them you can create a version of them and them modify it. So that you can reverst back to that version if required.
Like wise there is lots of importance of versioning Workflow.
The Active Plan version is also important to establish at SWU3. As all the Workflow is using Organization management which is very depended on the Active Plan version. so based on which Plan version you want to use you can Provide in SWU3 to tell Workflow system to use this.
Hope this will give you a clear picture.
Regards,
Chandrashekhar.
