IPhoto not recognizing keywords created in CS3

I've added keywords to files (both psds and jpegs) I've created in Photoshop and Bridge (CS3). If I look at the file info in Finder, the keywords are there. But when I look at the info of the file in iPhoto, the keywords don't show. Also when I create a Smart Album to match the keywords, nothing shows.
Any ideas?

You shouldn't reverse engineer answers from your initial hypothesis
Not what I did. I searched on Google and found only references to jpeg and tiff supporting IPTC and none to psd. Have you tried that? I'm not sure that the Finder supports IPTC data, only limited Exif.
Why would photoshop be writing for the benefit of the Apple operating system when it's cross platform?
Because they're nice people? Or because both Oses support basic metadata comments?

  • IDVD not recognizing chapters created in QT Pro

    Due to limitations in iMovie i create my movies from jpegs in iPhoto and then add chapter markers in QT Pro using Apple scripts. Suddenly iDVD (4.0.1) is not recognizing the chapters and in scene selection only shows 'Start' and 'Start 2', not all the chapters I've created and their names.
    I think this happened to me once before in the past year or 2. There was a new version of QT Pro that was not working 100% with the Apple Scripts for adding chapters and someone on a forum rewrote the "add chapter at current time" script which solved my problem. Was it anyone on this forum? To clarify the chapters show in QT but not in iDVD.
    If anyone has any ideas i'd be grateful. Thank you.

  • ITunes and iPhoto not recognizing my iPhone 4S!

    I asked a friend who works at apple to help me with this but he stop responding after a while... but it seems my computer is "seeing" my iPhone 4S but iTunes and iPhoto are not recognizing it. I have done all the recommended tricks including restarting both the computer and the phone... iTunes is UTD etc. HELP!!! I need to have my phone usable for a 8 day trip next week and I am completely out of Memomry. I hate iCloud am out of storage there too. I just don't know what to do!

    By "seeing" you mean the iPhone charges when connected?

  • Iphoto not recognizing iphone?

    I cant get iphone to download photos not even an option in iphoto.

    Same problem here, photo sync used to work fine, stopped all of a sudden. I wanted to sync before the 1.0.2 update just in case, and I had about 200 photos outstanding. Plugged in phone, not recognized in iPhoto or image capture. Rebooted mac (G5 dual), reset iPhone, plugged in again, nothing. There were a couple of timeouts on the USB bus in the log that looked suspicious.
    I was now at the "grasping at straws" stage, so I grabbed the USB cable that was included in the iPhone box and tried that (I had been using the USB cable that came with an iPod). This was -really- grasping at straws and really hoping for magic, since the phone with the other cable was working fine syncing with iTunes....just not the photos.
    So unplugged the old cable, used the new one, and it worked. Freaky. To double-verify, I went back to the iPod cable, and it also worked now. Double freaky.
    So, who knows. But it might be worth a shot to try the original cable if you're using a different one. Switching USB ports maybe would help as well? Or just plug it in, leave it for a few seconds, and then unplug both ends of the cable and plug it back. Nothing makes much sense, but these activities apparently fixed it for me.

  • IPhoto not recognizing iPhone 5s

    Photos on my iPhone 5s are not being imported to iPhoto.  Device seemingly is not recognized.

    You might need to reset and/or restore the iphone.
    Here are a couple of articles from the iphone support website that might help out.

  • Why is Iphoto not recognizing my Iphone?

    My Iphoto is not recognizing my Iphone - WHY??? It used to be automatic.

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on eight different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
    With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
    Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. More information means you get better assistance. (And no, more exclamation marks do not get help faster or make your issue seem urgent. They just make it seem like you have a stuck key )

  • IPhoto not recognizing files

    When importing my photos and video from my Nikon D90 camera I got the error:
    "the following file could not be imported. (The file is in an unrecognized format.)"
    It appears as though some of my videos were not recognized. I am confused by this because most of my videos DID import.
    Please help! Thank you.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. That sounds like it could be a damaged memory card. Use Image Capture or a card reader to get all of the files off the memory card. Then use the camera to reformat the card, shot some test photos and videos and try importing again.
    I don't know how you normally erase the card but it should be done with the camera via its reformat option. Letting iPhoto do it can lead to loss of photos. All to often users will report incomplete uploads and complete deletions by iPhoto.

  • Pictures in iPhoto not recognized in iMovie 8.

    All my pictures in iPhoto do not show up in iMovie 8. They did in the previous version 6. How do I get iMovie 8 to recognized all my pictures in iPhoto? Many thanks for any help.

    I have rebuilt the database with the options you suggested. Whilst this took a long time it was successful in solving the original problem.
    I noticed that one of the processes was to +'upgraded the thumbnails'+ this terminology is interesting as a number of the photos came from different cameras and/or were added over the years in earlier versions of iPhoto. I presume that this was the reason the term upgrade was used is this correct.
    The problem was solved thanks for your help.

  • HT4236 iPhoto not recognizing iPhone with too many photos.

    I recently took a lot of pictures using my iPhone (about 15,000 cos I was doing a time lapse). Now when iPhoto & Image Capture will not recognize my iPhone when I plug it in; the phone still shows up in iTunes.
    I hooked up another iPhone onto my Mac and it syncs fine. I also hooked up both phones onto a Windows PC, the other phone is working fine but I am unable to access the photos in the phone with 15,000 photos.
    How can I get my photos off the phone?
    Thanks in advance.

    This is from Mac Help. It is a good idea to create another account to use in troubleshooting situations such as this. After you create the new account, open iDVD from that account. Try creating a small project to see if you are having the same problems. Post back with your results.
    _Adding a new user account to your computer_
    You can create individual user accounts for each person who uses your computer. Each new user has a separate home folder and can adjust his or her own preferences without affecting other users.
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences and click Accounts.
    If some settings are dimmed, click the lock icon and type an administrator name and password.
    Click Add and type the user's name.
    If you don't want to use the short name generated automatically, type a new short name. (Once the account is created, you won't be able to change the short name.)
    Type the user's password in the Password and Verify boxes.
    Type a hint to help the user remember the password if they have trouble remembering it at login.

  • After 10.3.9 Upgrade, iPhoto not recognizing Library

    After I completed my 10.3.9 upgrade (from 10.1.5), and subsequent upgrade to iPhoto 2.0.1, I get the following effor message when launching iPhoto 2.0.1 (iPhoto was working fine before OS upgrade):
    Your Photo Library was not found. Do you want to find your Photo Library?
    iPhoto can't continue without a Photo Library. Make sure the disk containing your Photo Library is connected.
    <Quit> <Create Library...> <Find Library...>
    So, I tried Quit. Restarted and got the same result.
    Then I tried Find Library, but when I navigate to the file on my computer called Library.data it is greyed out(location is Pictures:iPhotoLibrary:Library.data)
    Then I tried Create Library, but of course all I had was an empty library, and I could research no way to import or link my existing library.
    Please shower your suggestions on me.
    With thanks,
    Duane

    Hi, Duane. Trash the new, empty iPhoto Library folder that was created when you exercised the "Create Library" option. Open iPhoto, opt to "Find Library", and navigate to your original iPhoto Library folder. Select that folder, not any of the files or folders inside it. That's your library.
    The standard, default path to that library folder is: Your hard drive>Users>your account name>Pictures>iPhoto Library. You can move the library elsewhere if you like, but if you have no good reason to do so, leaving it in the default location is probably best.
    A cardinal rule for iPhoto users is never to tamper with any of the things inside an iPhoto Library folder. Everything inside that folder is arranged exactly the way iPhoto needs it to be arranged, and next time you open iPhoto, it expects to find all the contents exactly as it left them last time. If you tinker with the contents of that folder via the Finder, or using any tool or utility other than iPhoto itself, the library database will be corrupted for iPhoto's purposes, and some or all of your pictures or albums will seem to have vanished the next time you open iPhoto.
    There is a Discussions forum entirely devoted to iPhoto 4 and earlier. If you have further questions related to your version of iPhoto, I recommend posting them in that forum.

  • IPhoto not importing keywords

    I use Nikon ViewNX for pulling files off of my Nikon DSLRs, iPhone and point&shoot cameras. Then I cull, sort and keyword the files. I then import the files into iPhoto. For some reason, the keywords do not come with the files from the Nikon cameras (RAW and jpeg on D200 & D800). The keywords seem to stick with the iPhone and point&shoot files. Interestingly, I can see the keywords using Finders Info pane, but iPhoto seems to strip them off. Can't see the keywords with Aperture either. Am I missing a setting somewhere?  Thanks.

    Add keywords to a couple of photos with the ViewNX app and then open them with Preview.  Bring up the Info window for that image (type Command+i in Preview) and click the the IPTC button:
    If the keywords show up there then iPhoto should be able to read and display them  If they don't then the ViewNX is not writing the keywords to the correct field so iPhoto an read them.

  • Encore CS4 DLT not recognized when creating master copy

    I'm trying to create a css encrypted DLT master in Encore CS4. Entire project was done in CS4 production suite. The problem is encore does not see the DLT drive (Quantum DV-4). It is recognized in device manager and functions properly (Vista Home Premium 64) and yes the driver is current. Is anyone successful in creating DLT masters in CS4 with a similar configuration? Any help would be appreciated.

    I never found a solution. However I did find that Vista requires you to run Adobe software in an administrator mode to access certain features. I was unable to use my dolby 5.1 free trial surcode outside of administrator mode. Running admin mode solved that problem. So I never got to test this with the DLT tape drive because I had returned it.
    Right-click on the shortcut for the program
    Click on the Advanced button
    In the Dialog window that pops up check the box ‘Run As Administrator’

  • IPhoto not recognizing the camera

    I'm in MacOS Lion and using IPhoto 8.1.2. Just bought an Olympus C7070 with no software disc. The website-provided download for Mac cannot install. Is there a way to get IPhoto to recognize the camera without the software?

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • Iphoto not recognizing my preset manual white balance setting on my Nikon D3100

    hi there.
    i've been using iPhoto to edit my photos uploaded as RAW, from my Nikon D3100.  While i've been very satisfied with the results, i've run across a small problem.  i've used various white balance settings on my camera:  incandescent, flourescent, auto white balance, and recently started using the manual white balance.  when uploading pictures to iphoto, the photo has indicated what white balance setting i have used, except when i use my manual white balance feature, the information shows up as AWB (automatic white balance).
    can somebody please explain to me why this is?  any other setting i use shows up with the appropriate icon, according to what i choos on my camera.  is this a glitch?  what is the manual white balance setting icon supposed to look like in iPhoto?
    Again, I shoot in RAW, and upload directly to iPhoto successfully, as RAW.

    I think this article will help explain this 
    and this one from Adobe
    — Raw files have not had while balance set. They are tagged with whatever the camera's setting was, (either that which was manually set or via auto-white-balance), but the actual data has not been changed. This allows one to set any colour temperature and white balance one wishes after the fact with no image degradation. It should be understood that once the file has been converted from the linear space and has had a gamma curve applied (such as in a JPG) white balance can no longer be properly done.
    So the displaed WB is simply a tag and has no effect on the image - it is simply information about the camera settings
