Keywords Deleted From Keyword HUD Randomly Reappear

I hope I'm just doing something wrong, and if so, that someone can point me in the right direction because this is driving me nuts.
I am trimming down the keywords available in the Keyword HUD so that only the ones that I use are listed.  I am deleting them from the "Stock categories" section and adding a few new ones that I need.  The problem is that some of the keywords that I remove mysteriously reappear in the list again.  Why is this happening, and how do I fix it? 
Thanks in advance!

Hello, Kirby.
Yes, this is in fact what I'd discovered to be the issue ... every time I opened the Keyword control bar, it would repoplulate the HUD with previously deleted keywords.  I had been under the impression that the HUD was the do-all end-all location for managing keywords.
I have since done exactly what you've suggested and simply nuked the existing button sets and created my own, and then cleaned out the existing, unneeded keywords and have started creating my own to assign to the button sets.
I do get some odd behavior still; Sometimes when I open the keyword command bar, the three buttons sets that I have (Shoe Box I, Shoe Box II, and Shoe Box Comics) do not show up, but instead there are three non-existent sets named after long-deleted sets and they contain no keywords.  To fix it, I have to go into the editing mode for button sets, and then exit back out.  Small things.
Thanks again for the prompt and accurate resolution to the problem!

  • Contacts deleted from Microsoft Exchange keep reappearing on ipad

    I have 1 user who has setup an iPhone 5S and an iPad to sync with his Microsoft Exchange account.  Contacts and Emails were set to sync to the devices from our Exchange server and the syncing has been working well for several years.
    About a month ago he attempted to delete or edit Contacts from his Exchange account in Outlook.  Initially they appeared to be updated correctly, however, we quickly noticed that the Contacts would not update on either his iPhone nor his iPad.  Instead, Outlook would revert back to the old data from his iOS devices. 
    I've been looking but have not yet found a way to force the iOS devices to accept the Outlook data as default, and it appears either iCloud or something with the newer versions of iOS may be dictating how the Contacts are updated or removed. 
    Anyone have any thoughts on how to fix this or experienced this and found a solution?

    If you have your mailbox set up as Exchange, when it disappears from the server, by nature, it "exchanges" with any devices you have set it to "exchange" with.  I don't know the method of changing your mailbox to something other than exchange, but you could try to set it up as pop or imap and see if that does what you are asking......

  • I have been having trouble updating my iPhone lately. Every time I go and try to sync it with the computer all of the apps that I have deleted from the iPhone keep reappearing on the phone. Why is this happening? Thanks heaps

    Please if anyone has had this problem please help me, as I am getting annoyed with it.

    Here is what worked for me:
      My usb hub, being usb2, was too fast. I moved the wire to a usb port directory on my pc. That is a usb1 port which is slow enough to run your snyc.

  • Keyword HUD Draging

    I am unable to drag keywords from the Keyword HUD either to viewer or browser images or even within the Keyword HUD (change hierarchy). I have tried the S key. no luck. I have just downloaded a trial version 1.5.2. I have read the PDF Manual and watched the web video instruction. I am sure I am doing something wrong but I don't know what. I can delete and add keywords in the HUD but that's about it. I can use the batch feature to add keywords but i would rather drag them. Any ideas?

  • Can't drag keywords to top level in the keyword HUD

    After having imported my iPhoto library into Aperture 3, I found the keyword HUD cluttered with all of my 300+ keywords, many of which were duplicated. No idea why that is, but anyway. Some of them now live on top level, some on second floor under the main keyword "iPhoto", some of them are duplicates, some are not. That's the situation.
    So I want to (a) drag some of them to first level, (b) build my own hierarchy, and (c) consolidate those duplicates that are alloted on separate levels. Now I find myself in trouble. Technically, I can drag any second level keyword from one to another first level keyword, but then they remain always on second floor. I find no way to move it to *first level* in the HUD.
    I know that this can be done when the keyword HUD is almost empty. In that case, I drag it to the bottom of the list, see a white border pop up around the HUD, and let go. Simple. But not when the HUDs filled up to the brim?
    Am I missing something?

    OK ... but you're gonna groan. This is, btw, a long-standing bug (but still an excellent question).
    Use the search field to search for the keyword you want to move.
    Take advantage of the now empty space in the Keyword HUD to move the keyword.
    Clear the search field.
    Note that if you set up a well-organized hierarchical keyword list (which seems to be your goal), you can use the other work-around, which is to collapse all levels of the outline.
    You might find these remarks on merging duplicates helpful:

  • Keyword used per Keyword HUD, but not on any image per filtered search?

    On the keyword HUD I try to delete a keyword and get the warning that the keyword is used by two versions, so I don't delete it.
    I then go to a smart album showing all library photos and attempt to search for images having that keyword and nothing else (also don't have 'stack picks only' checked). This finds nothing!
    How can this be? I even searched the trash and nothing there either that matches the keyword that supposedly exists on two versions.
    Regards, Strathglass

    Guys,
    Before you chalk it up as a bug, check your keyword HUD for the same keyword appearing in different parts of your keyword hierarchy.
    I had a situation occur where I exported some keyworded raws as jpegs to create a pano. When I reimported the resulting pano done in PSE 6, the keywords came back across into Aperture, but at the top level of the keyword hierarchy. For example:
    (1) Aperture keyword was animals/reptiles/snakes/Venomous
    (2) On re-import, I ended up with keywords of animals, reptiles, snakes, and venomous in the top level of the keyword structure.
    Result = same keyword but in different locations in the hierachy. Confusion!
    This also happens when you import photos that were keyworded in an external app, but I'm not sure of the extent of the occurrence.

  • Aperture 3 - keywords HUD multiple copies of all keywords???

    Hi
    On my macbook pro somehow I have managed to get 3 copies of all my keywords in the keyword HUD.
    Is there anyway of resetting the file back to default?
    I've tried deleting the .plist files keywords.plist and keywordsets.plist but when I reopen Aperture the HUD file is still the same?
    Thanks
    Catherine

    Can you not highlight all the duplicates and click the delete button.
    Hold down the Apple key select the duplicates and click the delete button.

  • Keyword HUD gone

    I've just installed Aperture and installed my entire iphoto library - but after having applied about a hundred keywords or so from the Keywords HUD, the HUD has just vanished. First it froze, then I restarted Aperture, and now I can't find it anywhere, no matter what I do and even though I can both hide and show it from the menu. Help?

    Well, well well, it's all been resolved, stupid me...

    Reinstall it from the computer's original disks or an iLife 09 or earlier install DVD, and then run all applicable iPhoto updaters.

    Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
    Come back with the results.
    An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB indicates corrupted files.

  • Keyword hud questions

    Hi there everyone,
    I have a couple of questions regarding the keyword hud:
    Somehow my "stock categories" entry has moved as a sub-entry for another keyword. I have tried to just drag it out back to its rightful spot but it only seems to want to become a sub-entry for the keywords around it and not become its own main keyword again. How do I put it back in place?
    Is it possible to create multiple customised keyword huds for each Project. My main keyword hud already seems to becoming unmanagable with so many words and categories and it is slowing down my work flow having to scroll through the long list and keep opening sub key words etc.
    When I first started using the keywords feature I thought it was great and very easy and fast, but the more words I add the more ungainly it becomes.
    There are many different keywords that I do not need for specific projects so slimming down the keywords available for each project would speed up my workflow dramatically I think.
    Any thoughts or advice would be much appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Justin

    Had a similar issue & It took me a while to figure this one out - but it's quite simple really!
    To put the Stock category back to the root level simply drag it onto an empty area at the bottom of the list - ie so no other category is highlighted - and then release the mouse button. The category should then move back. If it doesn't, or goes into another sub-cat, then you'd still got a category highlighted somewhere.
    You can't create customised Keyword HUDs, but you can use the Keyword Presets in the control bar (Press Shift-D to hide/unhide them, press D to Hide/Unhide the control bar itself). You can create different sets of keywords and then use the alt-1 through alt-0 to add then. Check the manual for a bit more detail (Chptr 10, pg213).

  • Keyword HUD/Hierarchy

    I have one big request for Aperture... In the Query HUD the keywords need to be displayed within a hierachical list just like they are in the keywords HUD, but with check boxes next to each keyword.
    It does absolutely no good to have hierachical keywords if you can make selections based on each level of the hierarchy.
    For example, within the Query HUD I would like to be able to narrow images down by location, so I would start with USA to see everything in the US, then I could select Colorado, to narrow down to state, then I could select Denver to narrow down to city, and even an address or landmark beyond that if I chose. But as is the only keyword I can select in the query HUD is the most specific, which as I said, completely defeats the point of having a hierarchical key word structure.
    This would be a really simple fix, so I'm crossing my fingers for a 1.5.1 release.

    I'm not sure if this is a 1.5.1 thing only or not, but you CAN select keywords at any level of the keyword hierarchy and they WILL filter as you expect them to. The only trick is getting the keywords to appear in the filter dialog to make this happen.
    The missing piece is that you need to have at least one image in the project that is tagged with each higher level keyword you want to be able to filter on.

  • When I delete a podcast, it immediately reappears with the icloud next to it.  How do I delete it from the list?

    What's deal?  When I delete a podcast, it immediately reappears with the icloud next to it.  How do I delete it from the list so that it stays gone?  I only want unplayed episodes.  I have tried all aspects of preferences but this does nothing to help.  I couldn't even delete an episode until I downloaded it, so I thought.  After the downloads, I deleted it only to have it reappear with the iCloud icon next to it.....Thanks for any help! 

    What is reappearing is just the list entry with the indication that it is available for download - it's not taking up any space on your computer. You can remove it by control- or right-clicking it and choosing 'delete'.
    The recent changes in iTunes have confused a lot of people. Here is a summary of the situation:
    Only the most recent episode shows when you first subscribe. In the default  'My Podcasts' view click 'Old episodes' to show earlier episodes, click 'Done' to hide them or 'Add all' to keep them there and also add them to List view.
    Alternatively, in 'List' view control- or right-click on the name of the podcast or the episode and choose 'Show old episodes' to reveal all the previous episodes.
    In both views you can now delete both downloaded or un-downloaded episodes from both views by control- or right-clicking on the name of the episode.
    In both views each episode now has a blue circle to the left showing it as unplayed. Each episode can be double-clicked to be played as a stream without downloading it first (so you don't have to wait for it to download fully). Click the cloud icon at right to download it (as you will have to to sync it to an iPod). Note that if you click the cloud icon to the right of the title of the podcast itself, rather than an episode, you will initiate a download of all episodes.

  • Why are random calendar events being deleted from my iphone when I sync it with ical?

    My settings are such that events entered on both devices should push to both devices when I sync. The events being deleted from my iphone are not consistent (ie. older than a certain date), they are random.

    This happens to me INCESSANTLY.  I'm looking at my calendar events one second, and POOF!, the next second all of the events I've entered into the calendar- with the exception of birthdays that are on the actual contact information for a person- are GONE.  My calendar settings are set to sync all events- no timeframe- and always have been.  This happened to me nonstop on my old iPhone 3GS, and I was sure it was the phone causing this issue.  Now, I have my new iPhone 5 in my hands and same ol'   , different equipment.  I have done EVERYTHING I can think of to prevent this from happening or to restore the data- including rebooting, holding home button and on/off at same time, etc.- and NOTHING works to restore the data.  And then, just as magically as the data disappeared, POOF!- the data is back randomly sometime later.  That "later" may be 5 mins, a day, several days.  This is an absurd and EXASPERATING glitch that APPLE NEEDS TO FIX IMMEDIATELY!!!  I'm starting to hate the iPhone and Apple in general when I continuously experience HUGE glitches like this that have a profound impact on what you're trying to accomplish within a feature that you DEPEND on... yet Apple has "never heard of that problem before".  You suck, Apple.  Don't send your problems out into the real world, to users who just gave you $800 for another glitchy piece of equipment that never solves your software issues.

  • Keyword HUD has disappeared

    Whilst using App 3 the Keyword HUD seems to have disappeared. The Window dropdown toggles between show and hide the HUD but is not visable. Would appreciate any suggestions.

    Have you rebooted?  The HUD is likely lost on another "space" or otherwise off the screen.  Rebooting should bring back any lost windows.
    Just the first thing to check.  Post back.
