Keyword hierarchy auto fill

Hi! I wonder if anyone else is experiencing what I perceive to be a bug in LR4.1.
Having recently upgraded from LR2.7 (which was considerably faster in performance than this version btw)
I notice that the keyword autofill feature does not work when entering the name of an existing parent keyword following a newly added child keyword for an individual image.
For example, For selected one or several photos, when I enter "Diamond Jubilee > jubilee" the second 'jubilee' does not autofill even though it already exists in the keyword list hierarchy.
However the keyword autofill works fine if the entered keyword does not refer to any keyword parent, but just an existing keyword on its own,
Is this a bug? or have I missed something here?
or is it a feature that was removed from LR2.7? which would seem rather strange to me.
My current setup:
LR4.1 updated from LR4.0 upgraded from LR2.7
running on a Dell Inspiron 1520 Core2Duo T7250 2GHz with 4GB RAM
Windows Vista Home Preminum SP2
500GB Seagate HD 7200 rpm 4GB NAND

That's the way it works, don't recall it working as you described but may well have though.

Keyword parents not auto-filled

there is still the problem that parent keywords are not autofilled as in former lightroom versions.
for example: parent: car
if i want to add renault under car, in former versions if i typed renault > c than car was auto-filled. please change this again. it is very important. because if i type for example cyr i have a new parent and it is wrong.
thank you very much

Thanks, Kenneth this resolved the issue I was seeing but I don't like how LR handles the keywords differently from when you Export it and when you choose to edit it in CS3.
If you use Export it works like I thought it should as long as you don't select "Write Keywords as Lightroom Hierarchy". If you use the hierarchy option then the synonyms aren't written out. So that resolves that.
But, if you select to Edit in CS3 then the keywords are saved differently in the file. Which is what I was observing: keywords that I selected not to write are written anyway and the synonyms aren't written out.
The work around would be to export the file as a PSD and then read it into CS3 which is annoying since it adds an additional step to the work flow.

Date Created Metadata Auto Fill

Is it possible to have Aperture auto fill in the Date Created field? I've searched the help files and online posts, but don't see a way to do it.
Apparently Bridge does not read the "Image Date" IPTC field from Aperture as "Date created" so I need to update about 6,000 images and am weary to do this by hand!
Thanks a lot,
Kate

Ok, half way there. I downloaded an app called Pref Setter to edit the preferences by deleting the array strings that I no longer needed.
Also you can adjust the hierarchy of the auto completion data. I found that helpful with the copyright field since they all start off the same.
Need to still find a way to have the data automatically entered from a default setting, with out having to start typing.

BIG problems with iOS 8.2 Safari ("dark mode" menu bar, no auto-fill, etc)... HELP, please?

So I was simply wiping the dust off my screen, with Safari open, and once I had finished... Safari just went belly-up.
And I need some help badly.
First thing that I noticed was that Safari now has a "dark mode" menu bar.
Secondly, my auto-fill user names and passwords no longer "auto-fill" - I have to place the cursor in a field and have the keyboard pop up in order to access the auto-fill function: previously, the fields simply, well, auto-filled.
And, thirdly, when I attempt to post a message to the Apple Support Communities, there is no visible text in the body of the text. I'm using my MacBook Pro to type this message.
I have searched and searched to try to find remedies to my problems, but I can't find a thing. There's nothing unusual in Accessibility (that would make the whole screen, for example, grayscale), nothing changed in passwords, etc.
I'm at my wits end! Even restoring from an older backup doesn't remedy any of the problems.
Can anyone help?

If the menu bar at the top of Safari show white text on a grey background, and autofill isn't working, then you probably have private browsing 'on'. Tap the icon top right of the Safari screen (the square on top of a second square), tap the Private button at the top of the next screen and then Done - Safari should then go back to its normal colours and autofill should work again

How to: Create a master form that auto-fills data into other pdf forms?

I hope someone can please help me. I have about 15 PDF forms that all require similar data entry (name, address etc). Can I create a master form that we fill in once per client, and then auto-fill in the matching data on the 15 forms?
I am not looking for an online solution as the information is highly sensitive.
I have already created a form in Acrobat X Pro with the 'master data', and created the (15) forms with identically named fields. How I link the forms now to the master, I cannot figure out (after much searching).
I have read similar questions on the same topic but have not found any answers. I hope this time someone can please help.
Many thanks in advance.

Thank you! I had just figured out how to export the data from the master as an FDF file and then import it to the other files. I'm afraid I don't understand scripting to automate the process across multiple files. To you mean with java script?
I've also thought about combining the forms, once we know which ones the particular client will need. I have to see how it works in practice for my colleagues who will be using them.
Thank you again.

How can I get the drop down window for a ID and P/W "Always remember" Auto Fill

Recently I had a mail issue with my ATT (Yahoo) Mail account and they temporarily changed by Password.
After the issue was resolved I changed it back but the auto fill kept the temporary Password in Safari when I log onto my e-mail account via the internet instead of the Apple Mail program.
In the Past, whenever I would put a different P/W or ID there would be a drop down window that said :
Never, later or Always remember", at least something like that terminology.
Since I have had no reason to change P/W or ID lately I do ot know if it is Lion issue or if there is a way of getting the drop down to appear.
Thanks,
Greg

If I am not making my request understood, please let me know and I will try and reword it.
It is always easy to understand what I are asking but it does not always mean that others understand it.
Thanks,

I bought this MAC from a family member. Did everything need to change items to my apple id. Today I did the update for IOS Yosemite now the app store is auto filling with someone else id?? But they seem to be my apps??

If you didn’t erase the drive and install using you AppleID, then the OS and the purchased apps are still registered to the other AppleID. You cannot change that by logging into iCloud. Apps are forever tied to the AppleID used to purchase/download them.
You have to erase the drive and download/install the Apps using your AppleID.

Is there a way to create auto fill fields in an excel spreadsheet from AB?

Hey, so I've got an Excel spreadsheet that I'd like to tweak so when I enter a name, the boxes next to it labeled Phone Number and Email will auto fill the information in from Address Book. I don't know if this is possible in Excel, I have a Address Label Widget that does it though.

Being Applescriptable, you should be able to do that in Excel. MacTech magazine has a long article on applescripting Office. You might ask around in the Applescript forums or take a look at Macscripter.net.

Need Help: I need a check box to auto fill a set value in separate text field.

Hi, this is my first time with inserting scripts into a PDF Form.
We have a form that requires the user to check a box regarding medical conditions they have (i.e. Asthma, Diabetes, Hypertension). Later in the form, they have to type out the same condition into a text box. (I know stupid to double document, but it is required). Is there a script that will auto fill the text box when they check the box? For example, if they check asthma, the text box on a later page in the PDF will say "Asthma, controlled." Is this possible?
In addition, if they don't click Asthma, and do click Diabetes, could it add Diabetes to the first text box, but if they check both, it would add Asthma to box 1 and Diabetes to box 2?
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
I'm using Acrobat 9
Thanks!

Hi, I'm staring at the code trying to make it work for my needs, which are similar to Austin's.
I have a 16-page form with 2,988 checkboxes in the entire document (a little over 200 in each page besides the first and last page). The last page contains a textbox labled Summary, and it should provide a summary of all the items checked in the document. Theoretically only one page will be populated at a time, so there will be no more than 200 checkboxes checked in the entire document.
Is it possible to use the same code? And do I just put the code under the text in the script that reads:
form1.SummaryPage.SummaryText::calculate - (JavaScript, client)
The JS I am trying to get to work is the following from a post above.
// Custom Calculate script
(function () {
    var i, v, s = "";
    // Loop through the 2988 check boxes
    for (i = 1; i < 2989; i += 1) {
        // Get the value of the current checkbox
        v = getField("checkbox " + i).valueAsString;
        // Concatenate check box value to string if not deselected
        if (v !== "Off") s+= v + "\r";
    // Set this field value
    event.value = s;

How do I filter photos using the keyword hierarchy?

Since Aperture 3.1 came out, I've been taking another look at it and considering switching back from Lightroom. One baby step was to set up a proper keyword hierarchy with Aperture. Trying to use that for sorting photos, I started feeling incredibly frustrated and felt like I must be missing something screamingly obvious.
Here's my issue. Using the keyword HUD, I can set up a nested, hierarchical keyword list. The HUD helpfully displays a running tally of all photos that keyword is applied to. "Great!" I thought, I've got 46 photos of John Smith, let's take a look at them. So I click on the number. Apparently, while Aperture is happy to show you the number of photos with the keyword, it's not willing to take you to those photos (i.e., create a library filter and show the results) via the Keyword HUD.
Bringing up the filter HUD seems unhelpful for the opposite reason. While you can search via the keywords there, it doesn't show the keyword hierarchy! Am I missing something? Say I've got keywords for two people, Adam and Zoe, filed under People/Friends/. Using the keyword box in the filter HUD will list one at the beginning and the other at the end of my entire list of keywords. Worse, the filter HUD only seems helpful for keywords if you know which ones you're looking for, which defeats the point of using a hierarchy. If, say, I know there's 3 or 4 people I'm looking for under a particular category, but I can't remember their name of the top of my head, how do I go about finding them using the filter HUD? All I have is the long, uncategorized master list of keywords.
Again, I feel I must be missing something obvious. Thanks for your help.
Cheers.

I agree, clicking on a keyword in the HUD that has a number after it to get those photos seems like a no brainer. Even though I know it doesn't do that I still find myself clicking on it before I catch myself. Need to send feedback to Apple on this, clicking on a keyword should create a filter to and display those images.
In your example the images of Adam and Zoe should be tagged with the keywords that apply to them. That is they would have the keywords people, friends, male or female, Adam or Zoe, and whatever other keywords you use to describe these images. Then you check as many keywords in the filter that apply and you can remember.
While the keyword HUD shows the keywords in a hierarchy, keywords applied to an image are one dimensional, linear. Its just a string of words without structure. The hierarchy is just there to make it easier to conceptualize the structure.

Auto Fill Shipping Address from Billing Address on a New Form in SharePoint 2013

I have a new form on SharePoint that has a few fields:
Billing Address 1 (Single Line of Text)
Billing Address 2 (Single Line of Text)
Billing Address City (Single Line of Text)
Billing Address State (Drop Down Menu)
Billing Address Zip (Single Line of Text)
Shipping Address is the Same (Yes/No Check Box)
Shipping Address 1 (Single Line of Text)
Shipping Address 2 (Single Line of Text)
Shipping Address City (Single Line of Text)
Shipping Address State (Drop Down Menu)
Shipping Address Zip (Single Line of Text)
The object is that a user would fill in the Billing Address Fields, then click the "Shipping Address is the Same" check box and the Shipping Address Fields would auto fill with the Billing Address Fields.
I've tried using a CEWP and editing the form file in SharePoint Designer 2013. I just don't know how to make this Dynamic auto fill work! Any help is greatly appreciated!!!!

Use a custom web part
Design the form controls and in "Shipping Address is the Same" check box check event or button click,
copy the same data into a label form contains the same fields but in form of labels instead of textbox and dropdownlist.
try this solution and let me know.

Auto fill is no longer available. Now I have to type a website to visit it instead of clicking in the searh box.

I now get "auto fill is not available for this page" consistently. I am no longer able to click on a previous search entry and go to that site.

Keep Auto Fill Down A Column With Blank Cells

Hello,
I understand if one blank cell is left, auto fill cannot continue through out the rest of the column.
Is there a way to "trick" the cell into thinking there is information in the blank cell, in order for it to continue to auto-fill?
Please help

You could enter a space in a cell - it will appear to be blank. An apostrophe will work too - this makes the cell contain an empty string value.
