Importing metadata into second project

Hello,
In order to keep things clean in the development project I want to create another project and point it to our test environment. When I try to export an existing project and import it into the new one it tells me that the objects already exist in the repository and it doesn't import. Is there another way to copy mappings, tables ect to another project within the same design repo? I realize that I will need to setup new target modules, locations, ect.
Thanks for your help!
Jaycie

Thank you for your help. I did what you said and renamed the project throughout the mdl file, but I am still getting the following error:
PROJECT with Unique Object ID (UOID) <F649716A0ED631D1E030010AD4C97030> already exists, so PROJECT with physical name <HPDW_T> and business name <HPDW_T> not imported.
Because it keeps the uoid the same it won't import.
Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Jaycie

Error while Importing Metadata into DAC Repository

Hi,
After the successful first time login into DAC and creating repository, when I try to import metadata into DAC repository.
DAC > Tools > DAC Repository Management > Import
I don't see any Applications listed under "Application List"
Can anybody suggest the troubleshooting steps for this?
Regards,
Jitendra

If this is the first time that you are importing make sure that the directory you are importing from is like this -
C:\OBIEE\OracleBI\DAC\export
If this is not the first time then
Can you go inside the following directory
C:\OBIEE\OracleBI\DAC\log
and check for export.log - Look for Applications Section, if you have any application then you had exported it and you should see it under the applications tab when importing otherwise you don't !!Since its an xml file that is generated i believe you have not exported by selecting the applications yo want and that is your problem.
Hope this helps !!

I want to import one imovie project into another one. In other words, I have created a short sequence in iMovie 11 on one computer, and I want to import it into a project that I am working on, on another computer.

I want to import one imovie project into another one. In other words, I have created a short sequence in iMovie 11 on one computer, and I want to import it into a project that I am working on, on another computer. I copied the project files onto a hard drive, and then connected that drive to the Mac that my main project is on, but when I select "import" the files are faint gray -meaning I can't select them. Help! I want to transfer a sequence of shots from one iMovie 11 project on one computer, into another iMovie 11 project on another computer.

Tell me it ain't so!
I wish I could. The research you've done is correct.
Wether you copy and paste or rebuild the Project from the other computer, you're going to need to get your Evnets copied from the other computer.
The Prjoject files only contain pointer back to the original media.

Hi,
I have installed OBIEE 111.1.1.6 on the sever and OBIEe client tools on my local desktop.

can you please let me know if i am missing any prerequisties on my local desktop or any settings that i need to actualy srt importing?
Please help me.
Thanks

If the call interface is OCI, enter a full connect string or a net service name from the tnsnames.ora file you set up within the Oracle Business Intelligence environment, in ORACLE_HOME/network/admin.
If you are using a native interface for a different database, enter the name of the database for that system.
If the call interface is ODBC, the data source name field displays a list containing all the User and System DSNs defined for ODBC on the local computer. Select the correct one for the data source to which you want connect.
If it is helpful, please mark as correct or helpful

Understanding File Import Images VS File Import Folders into a Project

Hello,
When I select the "File>Import>Images" command, images go straight into my project, no album is created.
When when I use the "File>Import>Folders into a Project..." command on a folder containing subfolders, it will map the folder to a Project and subfolders to albums. OK.
However, when I use the "File>Import>Folders into a Project..." command on a folder with NO subfolders, images are put in an Album anyway. Why is that?
Is it possible to avoid the creation of an album and have images straight in the Project?
Thanks,

You believing that that's how it should behave doesn't make it so.
You're right. Me alone is nothing. But if a high % of A2 users think like me, then maybe this feature needs some polishing.
The REALLY simple work around is to delete the album. The images won't go with it, and it's faster than retyping the name.
Good, that's the workaround I needed. For some reasons I was under the impression that deleting the album would delete the the images as well. I guess I'm still not used to that project-album concept.
You could hit Command + Delete on a hundred Projects and do less work than you've done on this one thread.

How to import metadata into EPMA application by using ODI

Hi All,
1.Can you tell anyone, how to import metadata into EPMA application by using ODI. Detailed steps with screen shots will be appreciated.
2. What was the interface tables. How the interface tables will be useful while importing metadata into EPMA application (Detailed steps with screen shots will be appreciated.). And tell me the interface tables structure and work process. give me the clear idea bout interface tables. I don't know anything about interface tables.
3.Which method(either using ODI or Interface tables) is optimized/bestcase for importing metadata into EPMA application.
My database is Oracle 10g and I am using Planning 9.3.1.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks And Regards,
Bhagya Lakshmi.

Hi,
Answer to your questions
1. You can't import metadata directly into EPMA using ODI, the only option is use the EPMA interface tables which is your question 2.
2. Interface tables are just a structure of database tables which you populate with metadata and then this is pushed into EPMA, the structure of the tables takes a while to get an understanding of. The best place to start would be the documentation :- http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/bpma_admin.pdf
3. As explained in question 1 you can't use ODI directly to import metadata into EPMA but with a lot of hard work and effort you could probably populate interface tables from EPMA, though I must admit I am not a fan of the interface tables because I don't think they were designed with simplicity and ease of use in mind.

Why is it impossible to import pics into existing projects in Aperture 3.6 ? It forces me to create a new project on every import. Tried to change that in preferences but no luck.

Why is it impossible to import pics into existing projects in Aperture 3.6 ? It forces me to create a new project on every import.
Tried to change that in preferences but no luck.

It is working for me. Two ways to import into an existing project:
Select a project and view it in the browser in split view. If you drag image files from a folder directly into the filmstrip, the dragged image files will be added to that project.
Or select a project in the library, before you open the Import panel. Then you can switch the destination project in the Import Settings from "new Project" to the selected project.
Have you tried these methods? Where does it not work for you?

No response when trying to Importing Metadata into the DAC Repository

Hello,
I just installed OBIEE and OBIAPP as well as Informatica and am now trying to login to DAC client to import metadata into the DAC repository. So Tools->DAC Repository Management>Import. After I checked Universal and Siebel 8.0 and clicked OK button, there is nothing happening. I can actually still click on the Cancel button to close the Import window.
Has anyone experienced this before? Really appreciate some help here.
Thanks,

I have exactly same problem. did you manage to solve it?

GarageBand project won't import correctly into another project

I created a long podcast project using GB 3.04. The project consisted of one voice track. I decided to break it into two projects so that I could make it into two episodes. I created a new project and dragged part one to it. This worked just fine -- I was able to import other audio files and create my finished episode. However, when I created a new project for the second episode and dragged part two to it, the track was truncated to a fraction of its size and it contained no sound. The original of part two plays normally when I open it, but several attempts to import it as a track have produced the same result. Is there some setting that I accidentally tripped, or is the project file just corrupt? I don't want to have to re-record the track, but I've resigned myself to the possibility. Thanks.

Sorry, guess I didn't explain myself well. The original GB project consisted of one voice track that was around 45 minutes long. I decided that I didn't want the podcast episode to be that long, so I split the track region into two regions. Using the Edit -- Copy command, I created a separate GB project and pasted the second of the two regions into it. I tested the new project to make sure that it played properly, then saved it, re-opened the original, and deleted the second region (since it was now in its own project file). I named the original "part 1" and the new project "part 2". I then created a 3rd project file, to which I dragged the part 1 file and added music, imported mp3s from other podcasts, etc. This went off without trouble. However, when I attempted to do the same thing with part 2, I ran into trouble. I dragged the file for part 2 into a new project file, but instead of 18 minutes of voice recording, I get 3 seconds of dead air. If I open the file for part 2, it plays normally. I don't think I did anything differently with the two regions, but it wouldn't be the first time I've changed a setting or something without realizing it.
Thanks for your interest.

Issues importing pictures into the project I want

When I import a photo it imports into the project I want but also creates a second "new" project in the same folder, how do I get it to only import where I want? I appreciate any help.

Hi Ulrich
The picture size does not matter, but rather a setting in Administration > System Initialization > General settings > Display TAB. On this tab you will find a setting with a drop down called "Ext. Image Processing". Set this to full and the full quality of any pictures will be used, but of course resized to fit the field. Bear in mind that images are not embedded in the tables but only the file name of the image is stored in the table.
Kind regards

Why does dragging an imported video into a project reduce the file size by half?

I used a Canon Vixia HV40 to import 1 hour of HD video filmed using 24F and cina mode. My import and project properties were as follows:widescreen (16x9, 24F, cinema, import size = full, original size.
The specifications for the imported file are as follows/:
Size: 22.12GB
Dimensons: 1920 x 1080
Codec: Apple Intermediate Codec, Linear PCM
Color Profile: HD(1-1-1)
Audio Channels: 2
Total Bit Rate: 47,113
When I drag the imported file into a new project, the resulting .mov file has the following specifications:
Size: 9.67GB (approx half the size)
Dimensions 1920 x 1080 (same)
Codec: H.264, AAC (different)
Color Profile: HS(1-1-1) (same)
Audio Channels: 2 (same)
Total Bit Rate: 20,607 (approx half)
What causes the file size reduction and bit rate reduction? Is it a result of the different codec? Is there any corresponding loss of video quality that results from the conversion?
Thanks for your answers in advance.

Thanks a lot for your quick and detailed response!
Maximum image quality and file size are not the same thing, for a start.
Yes, but with JPG's they tend to be correlated, aren't they?
When you view a photo in iPhoto it's a composite of the original and the decisions recorded, and applied live as you view.
Oh, I always thought iPhoto makes a copy of the orginial and modfies that ...
If you want to use that photo for something then you have to export it. This make a new file with your photo in it. When you export you have a lot of options - including ones that will make the filesize bigger than the original. This User Tip
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
has details of the options in the Export dialogue.
Ah, that is cool. That solves my problem.
If you use drag and drop from the iPhoto Window that's a form of exporting too -but you have no options there. You get the iPhoto Preview. That's a 'handy-good-enough-for-most-things version of the shot. If you want more options use the export command.
That's what I tripped over. (I used the email feature from within iPhoto for a quick sharing ...)
Thanks, G.

Importing Metadata into InDesignCS3

Hi all,
Does anyone know how I would go about importing specific fields of Metadata into InDesign at the same time I'm importing a graphic? For example, I have a n image of Ajax. In the 'description' metadata field I have ad copy associated with that image. When I import that image into InDesign, I'd like to import that copy as well.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

You should be able to use the "Create InDesign Contact Sheet"

Importing Data into MS Project Professional 2013 from Excel workbook, can it be done?

Hi all, I am trying to get data in from several large work plans done in Excel, into MS Project 2013 Pro. I am familiar with the Import Wizard, but in this case, there is nothing to map from the Excel files it seems. Does that mean that I have to edit the
Excel files and make sure there is a column called Name to key from? Or do I do something else so I don't have to cut and paste or retype all of this? Well, as always, thx (and thank the heavens u are here).
Cheers,

Jiggy --
I think it would help you if you exported a Microsoft Project 2013 file to an Excel workbook so that you can see exactly WHAT data your own Excel workbook should contain. Please try this:
Open an existing Microsoft Project 2013 file.
Click File > Export > Save Project as File > Microsoft Excel Workbook and then click the Save As button on the Export page.
In the Save As dialog, navigate to the folder where you want to save the Excel workbook file, and then click the Save button.
In the Export Wizard dialog, click the Next button.
On the Data page of the Export Wizard, select the Project Excel Template option, and then click the Finish button.
If you see a warning message about a missing filter, simply click the OK button, as this is a bug that will not affect the exported data.
Now, open the resulting workbook in Microsoft Excel. Pay special attention to the data shown on the Task_Table worksheet. Notice in row 1 how every column has a heading that describes the data. Notice that the column containing the Task
Name information is not called Task Name; it is simply called Name.
What you will need to do is to configure your own Excel workbook to look like what you see in the Excel workbook that you just exported. Then try importing your Excel workbook data using the Import Wizard, and let us know if you have follow up questions.
Hope this helps.

Well, I followed this procedure and the results are problematic. First, there is always errors on import, and no matter what's selected, the import works but with problems...
Multiple import errors of the same type, clicking Yes, No, Cancel produces the same results:
Then, unpredictable results on import, most of the time it looks like this:
The crossed out text is problematic. I have no idea why it does that, or how to fix. Well, thx for your help!
