Link rows and photos???

Couple of tasks
Hello
I am using Indesign CS3 and I am trying to learn JS in order to complete some tasks.
I’ll put this in an example so as to make sence
I want to place 3 pictures with their labels (name of the jpg file). I know how to do that and how to format the labels in the style, color and size I need.
For example the texts in the labels are X1, X2, X3,.
I bring a table from an excel file with 3 rows and 2 columns.
-The text on the right column is the same with the text on the Labels (ex: row 1, column1: X1, row 2, column1: X2, row 3, column1: X3)
-The text on the left column is the description of X1-X2-X3 (for example, “row1, column1: X1 // row1, column2: pencil, B4 “)
I need
1. To say to indesign to find the same texts from the labels and the rows
(in the example : to find X1 in the labels and X1 in the rows.)
2:  To break apart , table’s rows
3. To replace each label with the corresponding rows
(in the example to replace label X1 with “row1, column1: X1 // row1, column2: pencil, B4 “)
Or perhaps, to place each row in the (example) top left of the corresponding picture.
There is a sample script in indesign that helps find the same objects but is it possible to specify it in particular texts or to specify it in texts (inside tables) and filenames??
Thank you in advance…

Thank you for your answer I think this might be extremely helpful
and if I have corectly understood you are probably right
I am really sorry about the terminology and the confusion
It’s a bit confusing for me as I have just started trying to understand scripts in indesign.
I named labels (as I have seen it before in another topic) the text that is placed on the images (name of the file , type etc…)
(for example it’s almost the same thing with Bridge tool: create indesign contact sheet , but I prefer to use a scipt in indesign as I have managed to manipulate, colour, type and size )
If the content of what I called “label” is called “caption paragraph” (or just paragraph???) then
I need to replace the contents of the first paragraph (the original "label") with the contents of the first cell of the row.
So I do the same with the rest of the paragraphs (labels)? I replace the second paragraph ith the contents of the first cell of the second row etc???
I am sure I’ll find this in the book about indesign script writing - but if there is no harm in asking - do I need to specify texts as caption paragraphs?

  • Reinstalling Front Row and Photo Booth?

    Hi,
    I had a hard drive failure a couple of months ago on my 20" G5 iMac. The Apple store replaced it in a day and reinstalled the OS. Thanks. Only after I had my entire computer set back up with all my apps, music, movies, etc., I realized that Front Row, and Photo Booth were not installed. How can I get them back on my machine without reinstalling the OS again? I tried Pacifier, but I don't know all of the different files and packages needed to intsall those two apps. Anyone know of a different solution?
    Thanks

    Hey there ... Go search for a program called Pacifist. Its a shareware but it will let you do the job. I used it before to Install Mail which I accidently trashed it. It should absolutely work for Front Row too. Hope this will solve your problem. Sawadee Krub

  • Row and Column Template ?

    Trying to create this thing but no matter what I do I keep getting this ridiculous error:
    Cannot create a linked row and column template based on
    the selected rows. The grid needs to have at least one data row that is
    not part of a row and column template.
    What does this mean?

    You can get your requirement done using the Row and Column Template
    You can not save a row and column template with all rows in a report. You have to exclude at least one data row, otherwise you
    will get the error that you mentioned.
    If you want to save all the rows as a template and re-use it in other report, you can insert a data row at the end of all rows and hide that.
    Now you can select the complete row set as a template by excluding the extra data row that you will insert & hide.
    If you want to link the template in other reports with same row set you must be very careful with the formatting as you need to apply
    inherit formatting before saving the template. I suggest to spend some time with the FR online documentation.

  • Adding link to the photo and Name in the outlook contact card -Enterprise wide

    How can I make the name and photo in the outlook contact card link to my profile page? I read articles where it is mentoined that the URL is set in Registry, currently my organization does not have any link associated with photo and name in contact card.
    I want to implement this across the organization , any deployment or changes that I need to do to implement this across?
    Appreciate if you can provide details on how this is done. The url will look like this:
    https://www.produrl.com/userid={userid}
    How can I dynamically add respective userid in the link?Appreciate your response on this.

    So you want to redesign the contact card in Outlook? Are you using SharePoint? If signed into sharepoint via the social connect, there is a link to the mysharepoint page under View source. I don't think you can change the link or customize the card,

  • How can I export the very cool Lightroom Map and link to the photos which show on the map?

    How can I export the very cool Lightroom Map and link to the photos which show on the map?
    I love the way Lightroom imported my .gpx files, automatically geocoded the photos, and show where I took them on the map.
    Would love to export this lovely map and the photos which have been geocoded to the map.
    Anyone know how to export this as an HTML file I can import into my web site.
    I'm a Realtor in Berkeley, and integration of the elegant map and the photos.  It would be perfect way to show my clients where the homes are, and what they look like.
    Ira

    You probably didn't get an answer because none exists within Lightroom.
    You can perform a screen caputre of the Lightroom map, and use the resulting JPG/GIF of your screen, however there is no way to hyperlink the point on the map to your photos.
    You might want to consider a non-Lightroom solution, such as uploading the photos to an Album on Flickr (or one of many other photo sharing web sites) and using the mapping capabilites there, which would be hyperlinked to your photos, see example below. You can use Lightroom to geotag the photos and then use Lightroom to upload to Flickr (or other web site) and then use the web site to create and display the map

  • How do I link Photo Title and Photo Caption in iPhoto Book

    When using the yearbook template in iPhoto I have found that the Title is not linked to the photo Captions are linked most of the time, so if I move a photo I have to reset all the titles. How can I link them?

    hi Jim,
    Are the titles that are not moving ones that you gave the photos while you were in the book mode?
    I was just wondering if you gave the titles to the photos in the library view if it would work differently.
    Ok, I just tested it. Before you make the book, give all the photos the correct titles and comments if any. Now highlight that album and choose to create a book. The titles and comments will move with the images this way.
    I also tested an image that was already placed in the book and it had a title that it was imported as. I changed the title in the library view, went back to the book and moved the photo. The title that I just gave it in the library view moved with the photo.

  • Moving LR5 catalog (Irdata & Ircat) to a new hard drive and photos. Lost all meta data - How do I move meta data along with catalog?

    I moved LR5 catalog (Irdata & Ircat) to a new hard drive and photos. Lost all meta data - How do I move meta data along with catalog?
    The meta data for each image is missing.
    I have over 2,000 images. I don't want to go back through each image and add meta data.
    Is there some way to move everything?

    No, do not re-import your images. I assume you can see the thumbnails in the library module, just cannot access the full images, right? If this is the case there should be an exclamation mark in the top right corner of every one of your pictures and you only have to tell LR where the images are now.
    Click the exclamation mark of one of the images and a dialog window should pop-up, telling you that LR cannot find the file, but with an option to locate it. Press "Locate" and navigate to the folder on your new HD where the file is. If in the new external HD you kept the same folder structure that you had on the internal disk, LR will be able to find all your images and re-link them to the database without further intervention.

    If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply. In this mode you just drag and drop whatever you want to the iPod from either library. You can also access and play the songs on the iPod through the computer in manual mode so you don't need to have the songs physically on both machines (Note: iPod shuffles are only designed to be used with a single library or computer):
    Using iPod with Multiple computers
    Managing content manually on iPod
    iPod 101: Fill 'er Up
    Note: When changing from automatic to manual, check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. "Don't" uncheck Sync Music in the Music tab, it will be unchecked by default when you choose the manual setting, if you uncheck it without setting the iPod to manual first you'll erase all the songs from your iPod
    Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device. In that case use Safely Remove Hardware icon in the Windows system tray on your desktop or check this link: Safely Disconnect IPod

  • Can't access photos in camera roll - camera and  photo app crashes

    Have iphone 4 with iOS 5.0. Took pictures but now I can't access any photo in the Camera Roll. When I now try to take a picture, Camera app crashes. If I try to access the Camera Roll via Photo App, it too crashes. Can't see the photos from iTunes either. Shows it as unknown data. Is there anyway to rebuild the photo library or remove a corrupted photo since I think that is the problem. Any help would be appreciated.

  • How can I organize home videos and photos in ipad

    I don't have a mac or pc, just the new ipad.  I'm planning to buy a camera card reader adapter so I can load my photos and videos directly from my camera card to my ipad.  But then how do I organize my home videos and photos in my ipad into albums? 
    I saw the photo folder app does essentially what I want but does it treat videos the same as photos?  I didn't see anything about it being able to organize videos.

    See the follwoing and the links in the following:

    Yuo will likely need a computer app to convert the format to one compatible with the iPad. I use the Free HandBrake app. It has an iPad preset.

  • How do I delete music and photos from my iCloud account? I've read below that you can't. Really? Is that correct?

    How do I delete music and photos from my iCloud account? I've read that you can't. Really? Is that true?

    You can delete photo stream photos from iCloud by just deleting them on your iPod.  My photo stream photos are automatically deleted from iCloud after 30 days anyway.  Just so you are aware, deleting photo stream photos doesn't free up any space in your account as they don't use your personal iCloud account storage.
    You can't delete music from iCloud because the music isn't stored in your account; it's stored in the iTunes store.  What you are seeing are links to your previously purchased music in the iTuens store, allowing you to redownload them if you want to.  You can't remove anything from your list of previous purchases.  If you don't want to see these "iTunes in the Cloud" purchases in your song list, go to Settings>iTunes & App Store and turn off Music under Show All.  LIke photo stream photos, this music doesn't use any of your personal iCloud account storage.

  • Trouble sharing Music and Photos on new Mac Book Pro

    I am loving my new Mac Book Pro. Front Row seems quite promising, but I'm having problems with shared music and photos.
    I have an airport network in my home and have most of my music and photos stored on my desktop (Dual G4). When I open iTunes on my new MBP the shared music works just fine. Similarly, iPhotos shows the shared photos from my desktop on my MBP.
    But, when I try using Front Row, I get an error message saying that there is no shared content. I found a work around that seems to work most (but not all) of the time. If I open iTunes first, start playing a song (shared from the desktop) and then switch over to Front Row it shows that song as now playing and then the rest of the shared music is available.
    I have used Software Update to download the latest version of all software on both computers and for my airport network.
    Any help you can offer will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Heya David,
    If you haven't already please update to 10.4.8. If issue persists then try the following:
    Remove the following files to the trash (do not empty until you test for function):
    ~/library/caches
    ~/library/preferences/com.apple.itunes.plist
    ~/library/prefernces/com.apple.iphoto.plist
    ~/library/preferences/com.apple.frontrow.plist
    - Repair your permissions - > http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=DiskUtility/10.5/en/duh17.html
    - Restart your computer again
    - Test and see how its working
    Hope that helps!

  • Getting someone's notes and photo on my iphone and icloud

    im having problem with my iphone 5s and icloud, i keep on getting unknown notes and photo of someone i don't even know. my iphone 5s is my first and only ios devices and i only have 1 icloud/apple ID as well(created after i bought my iphone), which is why its weird that i keep on getting unknown notes and photo of someone even though i've already change my icloud password 3 thrice. im worried that if im getting their notes and photo that they could also see or receive my notes and photo as well. i've already read some post about similar issue but most of there problem was they have other ios device that they lost/sold with there apple ID/icloud still on the device, which in my case i don't have any other ios devices. i also have my photo sharing disabled on my setting. i hope someone encountered this same issue and help me fix it.

  • If you have an itunes acct that was not set up to share and the lap top it was on is no longer working, is there a way to open up the old itunes acct to get music and photos?  This was before icloud was available, can you reset your password?

    If you have an itunes acct that was not set up to share and the lap top it was on is no longer working, is there a way to open up the old itunes acct to get music and photos off of it?  This was before Icloud was available.  Can you reset your itunes password somehow?

    iTunes and the iTunes Store won't have anything to do with your photos. Those would be stored only on your laptop unless you made a backup of some sort. If you didn't, and the hard drive in your laptop has failed, then your photos are gone unless you wish to pay a disk recovery service a lot of money to try and get them back.
    As to your music, if you purchased it from the iTunes Store you can probably re-download it. Go to the iTunes Store, log into your account, and click the Purchases link under the Quick Links. From there you should be able to re-download some or all of your purchased content. Note that not all content has been licensed for re-downloading in all countries at this time. You can see what content you can download here:
