Improved Libraries

I'm glad that Adobe is starting to put more emphasis on collaboration in Photoshop and Illustrator. The Libraries feature is very useful.
However, it's current implementation lacks a lot of the features that other similar windows in Adobe programs contain and make it much less convenient than it could be:
Suggested Improvements:
     - Rearrange the order of library items (I should be able to do this in my app or on the web)
     - A hotkey to open the Libraries window in Illustrator
     - Control over thumbnail size
     - Folders inside Libraries, to organize content
Also, better integration between Illustrator and Photoshop would be very helpful
     - Drag paths or shape layers into Libraries as Vector data that can be manipulated in Illustrator
     - Option of converting Vector data into Path data somehow
Thank you for the great work you guys do!

Oliver,
I think your ideal solution would be to get yourself an iPod and then just keep all you music on the external drive.
Short of that you could try iTunes Library Manager. It's not quite the functionality you seek but might be useful.
Finally, you could choose to not have iTunes keep your Music Folder organized and not copy songs to the Music Folder when you add them to your Library.
This way your Library could be split between the two drives but still all show up in iTunes. I think this option would be kind of a pain to maintain though. Especially when you move something from the external to the iBook. You'd have to manually find it for iTunes after it's moved so it would know where to look.

  • ITunes 9: No multiple libraries improvement?

    Hi,
    I like iTunes 9 but there still seems to be something missing.
    I have 3 iTunes Libraries on 1 computer. My main library contains all my music (over 80GB). I have a separate library for my iPod Classic (30GB) containing music and podcasts. My third library is for my iPod Touch (16GB) containing movies, TV episodes, and apps.
    What I usually do to navigate between libraries is hold down the alt/option key when lunching iTunes. This brings up a Select Library box, in which I can navigate to select the library I want to access.
    So, let's say I want to synch my iPod Touch. I hold down alt/option, select my iPod Touch library, open, and synch. But now I want to switch to my iPod Classic library. To do this I must close iTunes completely, hold down alt/option, launch iTunes again, and select that library.
    What I really wanted to see in iTunes 9 was a way of switching between libraries without having to close iTunes and relaunch a different library. I hoped the Home Sharing feature might do this, but Home Sharing only seems to work BETWEEN computers, not between libraries on the SAME computer.
    Am I wrong?
    Cheers,
    Martin

    Hello.
    I have two libraries on my computer, one for "everything" and one for select content that syncs to my iPT (it's only 8 GB). You are correct in having to close/relaunch iTunes in order to switch libraries. I, too, would have liked to see some improvement in this area of the user experience. My (submitted to Apple) idea would be an option in preferences to have iTunes prompt the user on launch which library s/he would like opened. Or something to that effect if at all possible. I'll keep hoping.

  • How does one merge existing IPhoto 11 Libraries on an External HD?

    I have an IPhoto 11 Library on my IMAC.  I have multiple IPhoto Libraries on my external HD.  I use Snow Leopard 10.6.8, IPhoto 11 (v. 9.2.3).
    I am not sure how I got them, other than Apple at one point backed up all my files onto my external Seagate HD in order to completely wipe out and do the most extensive reinstall they could due to a malfunction of Time Machine located on a Lacie External HD.
    In addition, I must have backed up my IPhoto Library onto my Seagate HD.
    My question was how to merge two or more libraries located on my Seagate HD, backup my IPhoto Library onto the Seagate, and eliminating duplicates.
    I think I have found my answer after 3 days of searching YouTube, Apple Discussions, Books, google.
    It may be long and convoluted but I think I am doing nothing wrong.  I wish comments as to improvement or flaws in my procedure.
    From what I can glean, IPhoto does not permit merging of multiple libraries, that external programs such as IPhoto Library Manager and IPhoto Duplicate Annihilator are what most recommended.  In addition, Aperture vs. Lightroom were discussed.
    My solution using just the external HD's and IMAC for transferring photos in their original format (RAW, Jpeg, etc) from my IMAC to an individual IPhoto Library on my Seagate HD.
    1.  Locate proper IPhoto library, the one on my IMAC by holding the ALT/Option key then depressing and holding the IPhoto Application key located on the Dock until a window pops open, slide my mouse to the window to the line that says, "Open" and releasing only the mouse key while still depressing the ALT/Option key. This will open a window which will permit me to select from the different IPhoto Libraries.  If some bear the same name, a look at the pathway on the bottom of the window will show which are on the Seagate HD.
    2.  Click on the library desired to be opened, in this case, the IMAC IPhoto Library.  This will open IPhoto.
    3.  Select an image, from the Events, Open that image, Open the Info pain (lower right) noting name of file and file size, example CRW_0555  6.5mb a Cannon Raw file.  Click on "Edit" which will permit editing.
    Hover over image of photo and Right Click with Mouse, window will open, slide cursor down to "Duplicate" the photo and Left click.  A duplicate RAW file will be made. 
    4.  Click on Info to close out the Edit mode, Click on the Date Arrow (Upper left of IPhoto window) to get back to the name of the event.
    5.  Highlight the selected photo or photos, File > Export, select "Original", not the Jpeg that automatically appears.
    6.  Click Export.  New window will appear, in my case telling me it will go to Pictures.  Move cursor to window and select via arrow, Desktop to export to.  The duplicate RAW file will now appear on your Desktop.
    7.  Close IMac IPhoto Library.
    8.  Follow steps 1 & 2 above to Open the desired Library on the Seagate External HD.
    9.  Drag the RAW desktop Image into IPhoto Library, either into Events or Last Import.
    10. Close IPhoto Library.
    11. Reopen IPhoto Library by clicking on the IPhoto App located on the Dock.  The last library opened, will now be the default, which was the Seagate External IPhoto Library, will open.  Click on the RAW image you imported from the Desktop, verify through Info that the Image name and file size and type are exactly the same, in my case, CRW_0555  6.5mb. 
    12. Drag Image on the DeskTop into the Trash. (Empty at will).
    13.  You have now taken a duplicated Image or group of selected duplicated images which you created, which you have highlighted in IPhoto on your IMac, dragged them to your Desktop, switched libraries to a selected library on your External HD. and transferred an exact copy into that external IPhoto Library.
    Utilizing this basic technique, you can now do any of the following.
    Backup your entire IMac Library onto an External HD into a library of the same name.
    Take one or more selected images, highlighting each image in an particular Event on your IMAC HD.
    Transferring an exact copy of those Images into any particular IPhoto Library on your External HD.
    Transfer one image in an external  HD IPhoto Library-1 into another external HD IPhoto Library-2 on the same HD (by simply opening up  HD IPhoto Library-1, selecting photo, duplicating photo, Exporting Photo to Desktop, Closing IPhoto, Switching Libraries to IPhoto Library-2, opening that Library, dragging Desktop photo into IPhoto Library-2.
    You can identify all IPhoto Libraries on all drives and rename them as follows.
    1. Open Finder and locate IPhoto Library on the MAC HD under "Pictures", looking for the IPhoto Library Icon in the My Picture Folder (at least in my case).  It is simple to find, as it is brightly orange colored and as a description it states, "IPhoto Library"  not to be confused with the similar Icon which has a camera in front of it, identifying it as an Application.
    2. Double click on the IPhoto Library name and rename it.  I named mine "IPhoto Library IMAC-1"
    3. In Finder click onto Macintosh HD.  In the Search field, type in "IPhoto Library".  All of your IPhoto Libraries will show up that are on your IMac and on any currently connected HD's.
    4. I renamed them, example, IPhoto Library Seagate 3TB 1, IPhoto Library Seagate 3TB 2, IPhoto Library Seagate 3TB 3, IPhoto Library Lacie, IPhoto IMAC-1.
    Items like Library6.IPhoto of only 4Kb (when one opens "Get Info" in the finder, is listed as an "IPhoto Library" "Kind" of file type.
    When opened, it appears to contain full size images in a full size library, so perhaps this represents the icon pointing to the "Last import".
    Can anyone tell me what that represents?  I will not rename nor delete that.
    By keeping the names of the IPhoto Libraries, consistent, descriptive of type of drive and the name of the Library you have assigned to it, then simply opening Finder and searching for "IPhoto Library" and looking for the colored icons, one can see, at a glance where each is located (by looking at the bottom of the Finder window for the path which will tell what drive it is located and the pathway to reach it).  One will see each of their names.
    This saves me from purchasing 3rd party programs to locate duplicates, to merge and establish and rename libraries.  This probably will work well if I do no more than a batch of 50 pictures at a time. 
    It would appear that I will only do this massive procedure one time, making one library on my External HD, eliminating all of the duplicates as long as I let them have the same first part of the name, i.e., CRW_0580, and simply making a search.  They should all pop up in my search.  I can add on additional suffix names such as CRW_0580edit1, or pano, etc.
    Does anyone see anything flawed in my above procedure?
    Is there an economical easier way?
    I am not sure I want to purchase Aperture, which apparently is overdue for an upgrade.  I may want to wait.  I may decide on Lightroom, my Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 provides for far better editing capability than IPhoto, at least in terms of exposure corrections.
    Pros as I see it to my method - 
    Inexpensive $$$, no extra cost for extra programs
    Full manual control as to what gets transferred, picture by picture
    Cons
    Seems quite timeconsuming for a first runthrough of the 3,000 photos, both individual and edited.
    May have unforeseen consequences that I am not aware of.
    Advice is appreciated.  Though I have had this machine for several years, I am still trying to learn and have limited understanding.  I find written instructions hard to understand and follow, escpecially not understanding the differences between different what I believe to be synonymous terms.  I find YouTube videos informative but now answering all of my questions.

    The duplication is unnecessary. Exporting creates a duplicate of the file. So now you'll have a duplicate of a duplicate. Exporting is not "working on" a file.
    No it's not merging, it's exporting from one to the Finder and into another. No matter what lose something. If you export the Original you leave behind all the work you've done in iPhoto. If you export anything else, you lose the non-destructive editing and the ability to revert to the original. With merging you preserve that work. Yes, you can trash the old Library when you have completed the manoevre but no it's not the same thing as merging.
    This User Tip
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
    has details of the options in the Export dialogue. But in brief:
    Current gets you the iPhoto Preview, used for sharing via media browsers. It's a jpg, medium quality missing metadata. Original gets the file you imported, unchanged and then you can export different version of the current version at different qualities. If you choose to export anything except the Original you do not get a Raw. There's no such thing as an "edited Raw", and you lose the connection between the original and the exported version. That means you've taken a non-destructive workflow and turned it into a destructive one.
    The Tiff will certainly be higher qulaity and less likely to suffer generational loss in future editing but the file sizes are vast, often more than 10 times the size of the jpeg.
    Put it this way, it would be cheaper to buy Library Manager than the disk you'll need to contain all the Tiffs. Unless you plan on a lot of editing, I'd go for a high quality jpeg as a reasonable compromise.
    To be clear:
    So, I guess my new question is, how can I edit the Raw image and keep it in a RAW format that IPhoto recognizes so that I can reprocess without any loss at a future time, or is it that once you edit a RAW image, then it is no longer a RAW image?
    Once you edit a Raw it can no longer be a Raw. End of.

  • IPhoto transfer to Aperture..now I have 3 libraries?

    So here's what I have done. after several months with Aperture and iPhoto, i decided to just use Aperture. Up until now, I was using an iPhoto referenced library with Aperture (i think that's right) and not using iphoto unless the photo was not in aperture. So, i guess i was using 2 separate libraries. Aperture for newer, and iPhoto for older, but when i started using Aperture i think i set it up so i didn't disturb iPhoto.
    Please forgive my ignorance, here is what it says for libraries in aperture:
    iPhoto library Version 9.3.2
    Aperture library.aplibrary(current default)
    Aperture library-iphoto.aplibrary
    That said, not all the photos transferred from the iphoto library to the Aperture library. I had to update the iphoto library before i could merge them. i have narrowed down the approximate dates of the photos that didn't transfer from iphoto to aperture. i want to have 1 library...just aperture and delete the iphoto library completely. Oh, and now I have only 1.21G left on my HD!!! I have 21,000 photos in Ap and about 19,000 in iphoto, so my machine is dying. don't want any disasters, so i need to do this now.
    i am on an iMac mid-2007. 4GB memory with a tiny HD 250G. I can't upgrade the HD at this time. i do have a brand new MBP with a large HD and 8G HD. i also want to have ALL my photos on that, in Aperture only, so ??? I'm running Mountain Lion on all computers.
    I really appreicate any input and hope i've made a modicum of sense. Everything is backed up on an EHD.
    Thanks in advance!

    I use Aperture on a MacBook with 2GB of RAM. It is the Core Duo 2Ghz, not the newer Core 2 Duo. Performance varies from great to painfully slow. All in all, I'd call it acceptable until a better machine and/or software fixes come along.
    The fast parts are on the library side, with searching, key-wording, sorting, etc.. as fast as I could ever wish.
    The slow parts are in adjustments and exporting. They are both related because exporting is slow because it applies all the adjustments to generate the result file. Adjustments can get glacially slow, especially some combinations. Once you have applied crop and/or straightening to an image, all other adjustments get slower. Spot and patch varies from fast to unusable. Highlight and shadow adjustments are slow and make the others really slow, etc... A big improvement would come from having a proper GPU, which the MacBook lacks. The implication is also that CoreImage programming for the CPU is really not optimal, because other products do the same tasks much quicker with the same CPU. Maybe a deep revision of CoreImage could bring a big improvement.
    Until then, it is hard to advise anyone to go and buy a MacBook to run Aperture. I find it acceptable for my needs, but that's it. For a portable, a MacBook Pro seems to be much better. On the desktop the iMac 24" with 3GB of RAM and the nVidia 7600GT seems to be tailor-made to run Aperture.

  • A FIX for iPhoto 11 opening older libraries

    Had the same problem everyone else has had. Then I was thunk in the forehead by an obvious trick. I use iPhoto Library manager. I opened IPLM and and clicked on the icon for creating a NEW LIBRARY (upper left corner of IPLM screen). I named it TestLibrary. I then launched this new file from within IPLM -- and iPhoto 11 (v 9.1) opened! That is, the app opened with a new library that contained no pictures. I dragged a couple of test jpg's into the library. Then I quit and reopened TestLibrary several times, to make sure I wasn't counting my chickens too soon. TestLibrary opened fine each time. I then quit IPLM and went directly to my picture libraries in the Pictures folder and launched them from the finder. EACH AND EVERYONE OPENED! They not only opened but iPhoto 11 performed the "update" function very quickly, even on the larger libraries. Again, I quit and reopened the files several times to make sure I wasn't dreaming.
    I suspect the IPLM manager may be partially culpable. I note that many people who posted this problem also use IPLM.
    FYI: I figured out this fix while standing here at a counter in my local Apple Store (Leawood, KS). The floor sales rep who tried to help me earlier -- a cute and very friendly blonde with a killer smile -- had no idea about the iPhoto problem. But she was very kind and took my emil address and set me up for a Genius Bar appointment for tomorrow. I'm looking all over the store now for her. nowto share my success -- but she has wandered off. Rats. She really is cute; I'm single. Which is none of your business. Where was I? Oh yeah. Before Ms. Cute saleswoman wandered off and aftyr my heart rate returned to normal, I decided to experiment a little more. That's when I came up with the idea of using IPLM to create a blank new file. Getting ready to leave now. ..... NEW UPDATE: I finally spotted the very nice (and very cute) Apple saleswoman who had been helping me. Some other customer was flirting with her, pretending that he didn't know a thing about his new laptop. Rightttttt... I interrupted and asked her for a dance. Just kidding. I told her I had fixed my iPhoto libraries. She smiled, nodded, said "GREAT!" I melted. I offered to hang around a few minutes in case she wanted to come over and see how I fixed iPhoto. While waiting for her I thought I should type this and post it on the Forum. The very nice (and BEYOND cute) saleswoman still hasn't stopped by yet. I will wait a few more minutes. I'm in love. But the store is very busy. I will wait a few more minutes. I am realllly in love. Did I mention she was cute and very polite? Gotta go now. Perhaps Ms. Cuteness and I will meet in another time, place or dimension. After all, she has my name an email address. Maybe she'll send an email later and ask me for a date — strictly for professional and technical information purposes, of course; to find out how I fixed the iPhoto problem so that she can share it with other staff and customers. She probably won't, which means other Mac owners who wander in today with the same iPhoto problem will also fall in love with Ms. Cute but they won't learn a darn thing about my iPhoto fix. That kind of customer relations conduct would normally make me very angry. But nothing is normal anymore. It's hard to be angry when you're madly in love. -- David

    iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -
    Update 10/24: I released a quick 3.5.8 update yesterday, which doesn’t yet provide full iPhoto ‘11 compatibility, but does provide a couple improvements for iPhoto ‘11 users, including a fix for those experiencing the issue of being unable to reopen a library after upgrading it to the new iPhoto version. If you have such a library, simply open the library up via iPLM, and you should be prompted by iPhoto to upgrade the library again. Once it’s complete, you should then be able to close and reopen the library normally.

  • Multiple libraries, projects and reorganizing for the new year

    I have used Aperture since 1.0 and really like it but the growing pains are still present - over time of use, I've ended up with multiple libraries [2 main ones and 2-3 little ones that probably can be safely archived]. I want to start fresh in the new year and have a new Library that is my main one, my only one in fact == is it possible/feasible/desireable to export projects from Library A and B and then import the ones i want into my 2007 Library the way my new organizing system will be? I mainly have images according to geography and people [e.g. people in locations versus family and friends]. Can I consolidate all my Libraries into one new one for use in the future ?? Will exporting each project and then importing into my new master Library work??

    I've been thinking just a little about what features I would like the next rev of aperture to have. Though I haven't thought through the specifics, easier and more efficient use and management of multiple libraries, projects etc would be nice. Whole aperture projects referenced from multiple libraries or some such? (I said I hadn't thought it through!)
    It's over a year since aperture came out, macworld is coming up, and I suspect that 2.0 will be released eventually some time in the future, perhaps with changes (maybe even improvements!) in library and project workflow.
    So while I too am considering how to organize my own aperture materials I am currently holding off for bit just in case there might maybe possibly be (Conjecture Warning!!!) something new announced soon....

  • Multiple libraries, multiple instances, multiple preference sets

    Hi everyone!
    I know how to create multiple libraries, but does anyone know if it is possble to access through ONE instance of iTunes the multiple libraries created? If not, is it possible to run multiple instables of iTunes?
    In any case, if it possible to have different preference sets for each library?
    The reason I'm asking is that I find it really great to have multiple libraries so that one can have media on different drives/locations and better manage one's media. However, it's a real pain in the *** to have to quit iTunes, hold the Option key while starting iTunes, choose a library, and play whatever one wants to play.
    Syncing with an iPod, too, is a pain, because I have to manually manage the iPod.
    So until, iTunes does all this by itself, does anyone know of a solution?
    Thanks.
    PowerBook G4 17"   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Good thoughts, and maybe we'll get there someday. Already, Apple has made a complex business (managing a media library) impressively easy through iTunes, and it's steadily improved iTunes, too. Of course, the success that Apple has had in software ergonomics always leaves it in the position of having consumers say, "Well, if you can give us this, then why can't you give us that?"
    At the same time, many--probably a large majority--of iTunes users do not discern the difference between the iTunes Library and the collection of music files the Library refers to. I'm sure Apple is concerned about confusing such users by adding the kind of complexity and power to iTunes that some of us could take advantage of. It's a tough balancing act.
    (BTW, I think Apple should have chosen its iTunes terminology a little differently in order to help users more easily understand iTunes organization. Maybe the iTunes folder could have been called the iTunes Library folder, the iTunes Music Library file the iTunes Music Catalog, and the iTunes Music folder the iTunes Music Holdings folder, or something along those lines that makes for a closer analogy with a regular, physical library.)
    I still think Apple could give you the feature you seem to be looking for by creating a new kind of preset...maybe call it Collections, or something like that... that would allow you to store different sets of preferences affecting Importing of new tunes--location, file format, etc. Then you could do what you want within one library.
    Who knows? ...Hope you get what you want sometime soon!

    There are only a very very few and rare good reasons to use the oci8 driver with Java (and I can't remember any of them at the moment). Performance is not one of them. If at all possible, you should use the Type IV (thin) driver instead.
    The classes12.jar (or zip) is for use with Java 1.2 and 1.3. There are different versions of this jar for each version of the database, but they're fundamentally cross-compatible; all the post-8i drivers are supposed to work with all the post-8i databases (and the 8i stuff also mostly works too). There's been a succession of bug fixes and minor functional changes, as well as some very substantial perfromance improvements. If you are developing brand-new code, I very stongly encourage you to use the very latest driver (currently 10.2.0.1, I think). If you are using a Java version greater than 1.3, then you should use the ojdbc14.jar instead (and don't try to use both classes12.jar and ojdbc14.jar, they have the sameclasses in them). I think the 10.2.0.1 ojdb14.jar was the first one certified for Java 1.5, and it's significantly faster than the 9i drivers. Anyone considering an upgrade of drivers should plan to do a good regression test; as mentioned before, there are some very small functional differences. You can download the latest drivers here:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/index.html
    If you insist on using oci, then you probably need to do an Oracle client installation on your Windows box. If you stay with the 9i driver, the full client install is huge; however, you can almost certainly use the 10g "Instant Client", which is a pared-down version, with just the minimal stuff to support an application. That's available here:

  • IPhoto 6 is duplicating rolls of film on other iphoto libraries

    I am having a lot of issues with iPhoto 6..... I hope there is someone out there who can give me some guidance as I am really bewildered.
    iPhoto 6 asks if I want duplicates added, but then proceeds to add the duplicates -- just ignoring my instructions. iPhoto 6 not only duplicated rolls of film on different iPhoto libraries, but it duplicated some photos within a roll -- not all of the photos on the roll, just a few. It is noticeable that the first and presumably the original has JPG after the title.... The second picture doesn't have JPG suffix, but says FORMAT is JPEG Image. Also the size is the same for the duplicate as the first one, but the KB or MB is less than the first one.
    I had created new libraries (12) earlier when the number of photos on a library was thought to slow it down. Some of these libraries hadn't been opened for a while. I recently noticed that my Pictures folder was taking up too much space and I began an examination. When I opened some of the libraries, I'd get a message that the library needed to be rebuilt to improve performance, so I agreed. Then on several occasions, I was told that a certain number of photos had been "recovered" and would I like to import (over 500 and up to 1300 at a time). Well, I had no idea what they were of or why they were "recovered." I was hesitant to add that many more photos as they were already taking too much space, but I did.
    I soon learned that all or most of these recovered pictures were already on another library. What a MESS! There is no title on the library once it is opened and there is no list of all the film rolls so that one can know where the duplicates are. So I have gone through all the libraries, put them in film rolls and typed up a rough index. Now I am trying to decide which ones to delete.
    I have not been as pleased with iPhoto 6 as with its predecessors and certainly do not want to upgrade to iPhoto 8 until I have some assurance that this isn't going to happen again. The problem is on my eMac 10.4.11, but I also have a MacBook and a picture iPod.
    Can anyone help me make sense out of this? I've like to know what caused it so that I don't have a repeat performance. Thanks for your help in advance.

    Rita:
    I suggest you use iPhoto Library Manager to manage the libraries. It puts the name of the library in the top frame of iPhoto so you know what library you're in. You can also merge libraries, telling it not to merge duplicates and I believe it will do a better job than iPhoto. You can test it out with a couple of smaller libraries.
    Are you importing from a camera or from the Finder? I found that importing from the Finder would exclude duplicates while from a camera would not. I find it safer to upload from the camera to a folder on the Desktop and then into iPhoto much safer.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • XMP metadata for Photo Libraries

    I demo lightroom at shows for Adobe and one of the constant gripes I get, and spend a long time trying to convince punters I have no answer for, is that Lightroom doesn't interact at all well with some of the software that photo libraries use. I have never had any exposure to such applications, but I recall one being called Photo Suite.
    Apparently the problem is metadata captions do not travel well from Lightroom back to these Photo Library apps. So I have just had a load of photographers over the last few days come to me complaining that they have captioned images in Lightroom, but the captions have not been captured in such a way that they can be read by these library apps.
    Can anybody make this happen for these people supplying photos to the libraries, because I feel that suppliers are a little hesitant to use Lightroom fully unless it improves. I can't shed much more light on it than this as I have no experience of any Photo Library software.

    I'm not so sure that a lot of image libraries are prepared to ditch their library software. My understanding of it is that the photographers who have the library software - and there seems to be a number of them - are being forced to use the image library software by the image library they are submitting their shots to. If captions aren't being retained, then the shots they are submitting are being rejected by the libraries which is obviously causing a loss of income. Something that causes me a loss of income doesn't get used.
    So, by the lack of communication and updating of captions between the apps, photographers are being held back, and I get the feeling the photographers would very much like to use LR and know it is without fail compatible with the image library software.
    These captions and changes are apparently being recognised by PSCS3, but not lightroom, so where does the fault lie?

  • Shared Libraries Dummy Questions

    Hello *,
    I am painfully improving my understanding about shared libs. I read the technical docs how to reference them etc but I guess I am missing the concepts.
    I built a web service with workshop 10.3 which of course runs fine from workshop, default settings, so the web service references 3 shared libs automagically.
    Now I manually deployed this webservice app to a managed server instead of admin and it failed. I figured out I have to target the shared libs to the managed server which is of course understandable. But still, wouldn't it be helpfull to have shared libs targeted to all servers as default? (actually I am not sure if there is such a thing, target to all servers, all I know is target to a whole cluster).
    Now I tried to deploy the same web service to another domain with admin console. This fails. Workshop deploys the shared libs but admin doesn't.
    Now my main question is about the concept behind.
    1. Is there a recommended way to get rid of the shared libs for a workshop project once it was configured to use shared libs?
    Is the only way manually adding the shared lib under WEB-INF/lib?
    2. Is there a deploy dependent shared libs? I mean if workshop can do it, couldn't wls admin do it the same way?
    3. If I generate a build script, will it take care of deploying shared libs?
    4. let's assume I want to replace the wls-commonslogging-bridge.war which contains the commons-logging.jar,
    where is this jar located?
    I understand share libs make sense for bigger projects, but I don't understand I have to deploy 3 of them first to
    make a hello world web service run.
    curious,

    First, for Workshop questions you may want to try that specific forum:
    Workshop
    Your question definitely has WebLogic components too. Let me give some of these a try.
    >
    1. Is there a recommended way to get rid of the shared libs for a workshop project once it was configured to use shared libs?
    Is the only way manually adding the shared lib under WEB-INF/lib?That would be one way, another way would be APP-INF/lib of the EAR. The shared libraries are defined in weblogic.xml or weblogic-application xml. Typically a domain will be configured with the libraries to be deployed when it is created if you're just using the standard WebLogic shared libraries like the Workshop framework, etc. You can also make sure that your deployment mechanism, like WLST, checks to make sure the libraries are deployed.
    >
    2. Is there a deploy dependent shared libs? I mean if workshop can do it, couldn't wls admin do it the same way?It's my understand that this is a convenience mechanism that Workshop built specifically. You're shared libraries are defined in Workshop in the preferences so it knows where to get them from if they are missing, that's not necessarily true for deploying from the Admin Server.
    3. If I generate a build script, will it take care of deploying shared libs?Definitely WLST can be used to do this.
    4. let's assume I want to replace the wls-commonslogging-bridge.war which contains the commons-logging.jar,
    where is this jar located?Can't remember offhand (not on my normal machine right now), but you should be able to check easily by searching your installation of WLS for the shared library name (the war in this case). Also, Workshop should have a reference to it somewhere in the preferences.
    I understand share libs make sense for bigger projects, but I don't understand I have to deploy 3 of them first to
    make a hello world web service run.As I mentioned earlier, if you made the domain a Workshop domain when you created it, those shared libraries should already have been deployed and it would be ready to go.
    curious,

  • Tips For Improving Face Detection Accuracy

    These are some rules I have slowly discovered that have helped improve the accuracy of iPhotos' face detection.
    a. Don't force iPhoto to recognize *+every single+* instance of an individuals face. (If you need to create a location containing every instance of an individual, then you need to setup a Smart Folder using the persons' name as a Description or Keyword. "Faces" is not the section to do this. See a suggestion below for using "Faces" to do this.)
    b. Avoid confirming really poor quality examples of a persons face (low light, pixelated, off in the distance, etc)
    c. Avoid confirming only partially visible faces (hair covering half the face, head turned away to a profile, extreme angles too high or too low, etc)
    d. Avoid too many instances in which the person's eyes are closed. (Obviously, sunglasses are a real problem here as well)
    e. Avoid instances where the persons head is tilted 45 degrees or more, unless the software recognizes the face on it's own.
    f. Avoid instances where the face has areas of heavy shadow, and the light source is at right angles to the face. (Outdoors with Sun directly overhead or near horizon.) If face is in an "even" shadow that seems to be OK.
    g. Clearly, the more full frontal, clearly lit views of an individuals' face you can include, the better the face detection will be.
    h. If you do use the "Add Missing Face" button, then restrict the selection box to just around the eyebrows, nose and mouth. Avoid selecting the whole head since the face detection software concentrates on the features in the center of the face. No need to include the hair as it does not appear to be a factor.
    *Gathering Every Instance of a Persons' Face*
    Here is how you could use "Faces" to gather every photo of an individual, yet maintain its' face detection accuracy. Mind you, this may only be practical with relatively small libraries, not libraries with 10's of thousands of photos.
    1. First, go ahead and name *+every instance+* of an individuals' face (Even poor quality examples).
    2. Then, within the "Faces" corkboard section, open that persons' album and "Select All" of their photos (Do this before the Faces scan is complete or you will also select all of the suggested faces under "So-and_So may also be in the photos below")
    3. Next, create "New Album from selection..." and give it the name of the person. (Alternatively, you could "Batch Change..." all the selected photos with a "Description" using the persons' name and then use a "Smart Album" to gather all of the persons' photos. This could be handy for adding future photos of the person automatically to the Smart Album.)
    4. Once that is complete, now "Reject" all poor quality, or partially visible examples of the persons' face within Faces. This will improve the software's future accuracy at detecting the persons' face in new photos added to the library.
    If, at a future date, you add another large group of photos containing that persons' face, you can repeat steps 1 & 2 and simply drag all the photos to the persons' Album. Or "Batch Change..." the Description again to automatically include the newly added photos to the Smart Album you created earlier.
    In the end I have discovered that the Faces section of iPhoto is really more a "tool" for creating Albums, rather than a destination for viewing photos.
    Hope this helps. Feel free to add any suggestions you have discovered for improving the face detection accuracy.
    Cheers

    Apparently you shouldn't worry too much about what you select for the face area when using "Add Missing Face"... From Apple's knowledgebase at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3427:
    Note: Only faces that have been automatically detected in your photo library will help iPhoto match faces. Manually identified faces will not aid iPhoto's face-matching ability.
    So, unless they later come out with an update that actually uses that data, any effort you make in selecting especially accurate face regions is going to waste. (Though I'll admit I'm still putting in the effort in the hope that the data will someday be used for something in a future version of iPhoto...)

  • Improving Student Self Service with jQuery/lightbox?

    We're looking for ways to improve the student self service experience via the enterprise portal. There are a couple ways we've seen to do this, either creating a new peoplesoft page that displays the desired data and linking to the Campus Solutions pages, or creating a web page and populating the data via web services. It seems both approaches can benefit from the use of javascript technology like lightboxes. Has anyone tried to load the Campus Solutions Student Center or its subpages in a lightbox? Are there other approaches out there?
    I'm not a skilled web developer, I'm still learning, so sifting through all the information and choosing a direction is difficult. I've seen strong recommendations for jQuery. However, there are other libraries as well as many lightbox plugins, some actively maintained, some not. For those of you with more experience, is there a "best" library/lightbox for this type of application?
    Thanks,

    Hi Manjunath,
    If you look into the wdpro PIQ_ST_COS the method to trigger the event is found in view 'step4'. Here you have the method ONACTIONTO_NEXT_SCREEN. The following code is called to trigger the wf;
    * Call the trigger method to fire the workflow
      CALL METHOD wd_comp_controller->mr_cos_model->trigger_cos
        EXPORTING
          it_specializations_new = lt_specializations_new
          it_specializations_old = lt_specializations_old
          it_wf_new_spec_texts   = lt_new_spec_wf_texts
          it_wf_old_spec_texts   = lt_old_spec_wf_texts
          iv_keydate             = wd_comp_controller->mv_keydate
          iv_student_objid       = wd_comp_controller->mv_student_id
          iv_program_objid       = wd_comp_controller->mv_program_id
          iv_plvar               = wd_comp_controller->mv_plvar
          iv_istat               = wd_comp_controller->mv_istat
        IMPORTING
          et_return              = lt_return.
    In the end FM HRIQ_RFC_COSREQ_SEND is called from the method above. Via this FM all of the data is set correct for the event container, the even container is created and eventually the event is created. Please debug this method mentioned and check if the container is filled with data. Maybe you will find your issue here (in restrictions for calling the wf?).
    Good luck!

  • Problems with counter in renaming interface not maintaining consistency across multiple libraries

    Happy New Year, all.
    We have a problem in Aperture that I was curious if others had, and I'm hoping somebody has figured out a workaround they will share with me. Originally, we used Aperture and it had one huge library for our different types of photography. We had to change away from that setup because if there was a problem it would take ages to troubleshoot a ~500GB library and perform actions like rebuilding the library. We didn't want to do this, but splitting into six libraries has improved the speed in general and has made rebuilding smaller individual libraries quicker.
    We shoot a lot of photos and want each photo to have a unique number (along with a custom name). We set up a rename option in Aperture that has "Custom Name_Counter" and set counter to be six digits. The problem this seemed to create is that the counter in the rename function doesn't produce a unique number consistently across libraries. If I'm in library A, and I rename a batch of files, the counter will go up and remember its last number as long as I stay in Library A. The minute I switch to Library B, the number is at where it was the last time I used Library B. This indicates to me that the preferences travel with the library.
    Does anybody know a way that I can have a global preferences file, rather than a library preferences file? It seems it maybe used to be this way, but one of the version 3 upgrades forced me to delete a preferences file for the Facebook bug a couple of version 3 subversions ago.
    On a different note, another problem with renaming is that it is so slow. Renaming master files for even 100 or so files takes minutes. Does anybody else have this happen? Sometimes it's faster, but I haven't been able to figure out a pattern to this.
    I've submitted feature requests for revamping the renaming interface for Aperture for at least a couple of years. It never seems to improve. iView Media Pro, a program I used six years ago, had a great renaming setup and I wish Aperture
    Maybe it's time to reinstall Aperture. I bought it on disc, so it's not through the App store. Does anybody have experience reinstalling? I would, of course, like to keep keywords and other preferences.

    Machine is a Mac Pro dual quad-core 2.16 GHz.
    I am unaware of a 2.16 GHz Mac Pro tower. Are you referring to a Macbook Pro or to an iMac? Or is it a configuration I am just unaware of?
    My concern is that it seems that you may be making major workflow compromises that might be better dealt with by hardware changes as feasible. E.g. most 2.16 GHz Mac CPUs are about 1/6 as strong as a top Mac Pro today or about 1/4 as strong as today's Macbook Pros, and that has huge implications on Aperture performance.
    Also, graphics processors of the 2.16 GHz era were ridiculously weak compared to modern Macs. Aperture has historically performed best with strong GPUs (e.g. the strongest G5 towers would not run Aperture without a GPU upgrade). If you stay with the existing box a GPU upgrade may (if feasible) be in order.
    You did not mention RAM, which has defining impact on Aperture performance.
    Even if no hardware upgrades are made, it is useful to know what hardware performance bottlenecks may exist. So some questions:
    • Which Mac(s), exactly?
    • Which OS version and which Aperture version?
    • How much RAM is on board?
    • If a Mac Pro, which GPU card is in use?
    • What mass storage (hard drives and SSDs), how connected and how full?
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    The multiple versions of shared libraries are done for patching reasons; when a patch is issued it uses the slightly-higher version shared library to override the settings in the main library.
    So you really don't want to remove any of them.
