Lumia 1020 Owners - What is your iPhoto Workflow

I really want to start using iPhoto fully to manage my photos. I have my images from my past two phones in iPhoto already and that's all fine. They were the Lumia 800, and then Lumia 520 as a cheap stop-gap when my 800 broke whilst waiting for my next phone..The Lumua 1020.
I now take all my photos on my Lumia 1020. This combination of the 1020 and iPhoto has a few stumbling points:
The Lumia 1020 doesn't geotag the 38MP images, only the 5MP
iPhoto import doesn't seem to work on it's own for me
Combination of the Windows Phone App and iPhoto allow successful import, but of both the high res and 5MP versions (Still with the same Geotag problem)
If you have a Lumia 1020, what is your workflow you follow from taking your photos, importing, tagging them etc?
I don't mind too much if I end up saving both versions of a file but would like to avoid it with as little hassle as possible, I don't really want to have to tag each image twice (Once for the 38MP and once again for the 5MP).
Some things i'd like to be able to do:
Ideally only keep the high res versions of the images, without having to manually exclude the 5MP versions every time I try an import (Yes I may miss out of some of my reframed photos, but I rarely re-frame except when quickly sharing a file - I can edit the originals once in iPhoto if I want to crop etc)
Auto tag the high res versions of the images with a keyword of say "HiRes", to make it easier to find them when printing
Somehow get the Geolocation to work on the 38MP images (I may end up writing some custom code myself to copy the tag over, something would possibly run on the phone, but I haven't looked into it yet)
I tried out the Nokia Image Importer for Mac. It works well, but it does import the 38MP and 5MP and then just drops them into the file system. Although that has some advantages, i',m looking to embrace iPhoto as my photo software, as I assume I can export to file system later anyway.

I don't use the Windows Phone app from Microsoft to import pictures as it doesn't get date and time right for movies. This is my workflow:
1. Import all pictures and movies with Nokia Photo Transfer. This software is more lightweight than the Microsoft app. And it gets all dates and times correct.
2. Drag all files into the app Houdahgeo and geotag everyting using reference photos. The highres pictures get geotags from the lower res pictures without any problems. If you have taken photos with a DSLR or any other camera you can geotag them this way also.
3. Import only the highres pictures to Iphoto.
4. Delete all pictures manually in Lumia 1020. This is a lot easier since Lumia Black. And finally I delete all photos from the temporary folder that I imported to with Nokia Photo Transfer.
This is way too complicated compared to say an Iphone. With my Iphone I acomplish all of the above with two clicks. 
I am not sure but I do believe that the highres pictures where geotagged by the phone in earlier versions of Nokia Camera. I sure hope they will solve this issue. There is already too much work importing pictures.

  • Dreamweaver Owners: what's your version & build #?

    Hi,
    With a Creative Cloud subscription, I use Dreamweaver CS6 — v12.1 b5966.
    Is this the same version and build number used by owners of Dreamweaver CS6??
    You see, I opted for a subscription instead of buying Dreamweaver CS6 because the latest update patch was only available to Creative Cloud subscribers.
    I feared this practice was a sign of things to come -- that, from now on, people who pay up-front for a license to use Dreamweaver indefinitely will always be deprived of some features.
    Now that several months have passed, I'm wondering if this is still the case.
    I'm hoping that maybe Adobe has decided to just release updates to subscribers first, but eventually releases all updates to all paid customers -- owners as well as subscribers.
    But according to Adobe's feature list for Dreamweaver CS6, subscribers are still treated better than owners.
    The webpage promoting Dreamweaver's features hasn't changed at all for many months, though. So I'm wondering if it's even current. I'm hoping it's not.
    (Adobe no longer posts detailed version histories or release notes -- with build numbers, dates & descriptions of each bug fix & improvement or change -- so it's not so easy to know what's going on with the software.)
    Anyway, I'm wondering if we -- Dreamweaver CS6 subscribers, and Dreamweaver CS6 owners -- have the same version and build numbers, or not.
    Thus, if you own Dreamweaver CS6 (own a license to use Dreamweaver CS6), then please:
    1. Click "Help" > "Updates" to make sure you have all available updates;
    2. Click "Help" > "About Dreamweaver" to learn your exact version and build numbers;
    3. Post the version and build numbers here, and specify that you indeed an owner of Dreamweaver CS6, not a subscriber or trial user.
    I'm only asking one person to do this. That's all. Thanks!
    (If we do have the same version and build numbers, but you want to dig deeper as an owner, then go to the features page, and see whether your copy of Dreamweaver CS6 actually has all the features ...or not.)
    Steve
    PS: If we learn that subscribers and owners still do not get equal treatment (equal versions and builds with equal features and equal bug fixes), and if you do not think this is fair, then please let Adobe know.
    PPS: And if you switch products, then let Adobe know too. It's because Adobe has a monopoly that it takes customers for granted, and thus refuses to provide detailed product release notes, or adequate tech support, or products that have all features fully updated. 

    @SnakEyez: maybe (I only mentioned CS7 in passing) but David Powers commented in a forum post last year that his latest mail was that Adobe might be quietly dropping the idea of .5 releases due to end user confusion.
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/4769029#4769029
    Be really hard to follow updates if 6.1 and 6.2 are free updates but 6.5 is a paid-for upgrade then 6.5.5 and 6.6 are free - but only for 6.5.x customers - and so on.
    But then end users understanding of Adobe's version numbering is not exactly clear cut now - even without .5 numbering thrown into the mix - given the existence of this very thread,
    And then try finding Release Notes for each point release for every product......and then Adobe makes major menu changes in Cloud only DW mid-cycle dot releases.....
    I've always felt that Adobe was digging a confusing version numbering hole (which feature is in which version?) since the Cloud was announced. It's a bit of a mess all round in my view. Someone needs to hit the reset button and start afresh.

  • What's your photography workflow?

    Hi all
    I've recently signed up for the photography creative cloud package and I'm still trying to figure out the most effective workflow.
    I take photos using my DSLR and I'm experimenting with importing photos from the SD card directly into my iPad, using Apple's camera kit, but it's really slow and needs a lot of space on the iPad, which i don't always have. Alternatively, I could import them into Lightroom on my MacBook and curate them on the iPad. I can't really decide what works best, but I'm going on holiday in a few weeks and am looking for some kind of 'lightweight' solution.
    Finally, I'm wanting a permanent solution that will sync all of my photos to a cloud service, for archival purposes more than public viewing. I was thinking about Flickr for that, with its free 1TB.
    Any comments / recommendations? I'd be keen to hear what other people do, end to end.
    Cheers

  • What is your email workflow?

    Email is by far my biggest disappointment with the iPad. The way it works is functionally useless for me. It seems that iOS email is very rigidly designed to work in one specific way. That is, you are expected to have a single inbox where every email gets delivered to and once you review each email you either delete it or move it elsewhere. Is that how most of you use email?
    I have an IMAP server for my email. In the past I had server side software (maildrop) that would presort my email into various folders as it arrived. When I opened email on my Mac it would check each folder for unread messages and put the little number total next each folder name. I also used a smart folder that showed me a consolidated list of all the unread messages for easy access.
    Enter the iPad. This process obviously doesn't work well on the iPad because it only checks for new messages in a folder when that folder is opened. And even then the new messages need to be within the 200 message download limit before mail would find and tag it. With the iPad I have to manually open each folder to see if there are any new messages.
    Then there's the issue that you can't collapse the folder hierarchy so you have to scroll through every single folder and sub-folder looking for the folder you want.
    So, to fix the issue of scattered unread messages I decided to switch from server-side sorting to client-side sorting and I duplicated all my maildrop rules as Apple Mail rules. Now when I open Mail on my Mac the messages are filed away just as they were before, only it's done right at that moment. This way I still have the problem on the iPad of finding unread messages that have already been received and sorted, but new messages that I receive while using the iPad will be easily found in the inbox.
    This does work in that mail received by the iPad go into the inbox. However, when I jump back over to my Mac all the new messages don't get sorted because the rules only apply to incoming messages and the messages that came in while using mail on the iPad are already in a "received" state. So now I'm left with unsorted messages in the inbox. I actually knew that was going to happen but I had to try anyway.
    In the end, email on the iPad is completely useless to me which is a major disappointment. Mobile email would seem to be one of the major selling points. Since the email client has been around on the iPhone for several years now I have no reason to believe it will ever be improved. There aren't any third party email clients in the App Store either, and I'm not sure Apple would accept one if there was.
    How do you use email on the iPad/iPhone/Touch?

    Excellent question, I realized that straight from the beginning and what a pity it was it wasnt much user oriented. I posted several questions about that issue but never got any feedback for that. 
    What I kept wondering was, how people were using their Ipad within their enterprise with typical email beginnings such as:
    [email protected] 
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    etc...
    As to the second poster, I dont know how many email accounts you have and whether they are biz related or private. But considering mine I get over 100 email on average, even if they are collected in one account only going and sorting them out will take ages, as most will have attachments.
    So far I couldnt utilize my iPad as much as I wanted and needed to, the usebility is too limited.  Specifically, for emails, and the WIFI wouldnt work well with iPad, while it works perferctly with Mac in such almost all locations. As for now for the iPad1, that I have. I am not sure if iPad3 will be any better, and whether I can use it overseas in differing locations!
    Curious, what advantages other compatible systems will offer, that are more user oriented and functional in their work and in the play time:)

  • What is your Premiere, After Effects and SpeedGrade Workflow?

    Hi Everyone,
    I am an experienced editor who's switched to Adobe's CC barely a year ago. At the moment I'm in the midst of finishing up a corporate project and trying to think of the best workflow between Premiere, After Effects and SpeedGrade. I'm loving the Dynamic Link workflows, but at the some time I'm facing some obstacles, and am wondering how you guys do your work.
    Let's say I finished the edit of the project and send the project via Dynamic Link to SG. I finish the grade and then decide to use the Dynamic Link to AE to add some titles with shapes and effects such as Fast Blur. This is where I'm facing the first problem. When I choose a clip to be 'Replaced with an AE Composition', the color correction is gone, and now if I grade in SG, it will naturally grade the titles I added. So, it seems as though my color grade is a waste of time and I have to do it the old school way of first absolutley completing the color grade, exporting, re-importing and then heading for titles and effects. That makes you lose quite a bit of "dynamics" in your work (and time aka money), if my clients want changes for example.
    For simple animations with text, and shapes, this is not a big issue since you could easily add the titles to a second Video track. But when you use After Effects which changes the acutal image of a clip by adding effects, things don't work out too easily. But in any case, these might just be the limitations to the relativley new Dynamic Link workflow.
    In my specific example, how would you go about it? What is your workflow? Maybe I'm missing out on some tips & tricks.
    Be happy to hear from you guys and maybe get some expert knowledge.
    Best,
    fabian

    Hey there,
    I'm also looking for a solid workflow solution since adopting (and actually really liking) Speedgrade.  So below is what I'm going to try which should work and will follow this thread to see if any other workflows pop up.  Also typing this out here to help me with plan of attack
    Project Specs - 3 minute corporate video with text animation, interviews, broll, and computer screen replacement
    Edit in Premiere
    Dynamic link to SpeedGrade for color correction
    Open back up in Premiere, confirm all color corrections are applied, and then duplicate sequence to an AE Prep extension
    In AE prep sequence, take all AE "base" shots (for computer screen composite or anything needing stabilization) up onto their own track (i.e. V5 & V6)
    Add 10 frame handles to in & out, checkerboard clips as needed
    Delete all other remaining content but keep blank spaces / no ripple deletes
    Export this out to a ProRes4444 QT movie
    Import ProRes4444 QT movie back into premiere, add over existing video layers in AE Prep extension sequence, and then there time out the screen shot replacement content to cover effect duration
    Dynamic link AE Prep Premiere Pro sequence to AE
    Do the AE work
    Dynamic link back to Premiere
    DoneHopefully
    This was my similar work around back in the day before I had Automatic Duck in FCP to AE
    Hope this helps anyone else - if there are any glaring "why would you do all that" points - please let me know   I'll also report back if there are any horrible roadblocks throughout the process.

  • I have IPhoto version 9.5.1. I cannot export pictures, the following message appears: "iPhoto cannot import your photos because there is not enough free space on the volume containing your iPhoto library." What am I suppose to do? I have a Mac mini.

    I have IPhoto version 9.5.1. I cannot export pictures since the following message appears: "iPhoto cannot import your photos because there is not enough free space on the volume containing your iPhoto library." What am I suppose to do? I have a Mac mini which properly used can perform any reasonable task, the problem is I do not know what to do.
    Any help will be appreciated.

    Hmm... that was labelled:
    As a Test:
    In bold and all
    Try repair the main Library:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.  
    Regards

  • What to do with your iPhoto library after "upgrading" to Photos?

    I just updated OS 10.10.3 (Yosemite) and saw the Photos app installed. Also, the iPhoto app's icon is gone from the dock, but the app still remains the application folder. I started the Photos App and went through the library transition. My library is very larger, around 172 GB. Now that I have Photos installed, can I remove the iPhoto app and its library or do I need to keep because I now have a Photos library and an iPhotos library. I do get nervous about deleting libraries, so any advice or warnings would be nice. Thanks.

    Keep it for now. Photos saves disk space by sharing images with your iPhoto or Aperture libraries - Apple Support.

  • Lumia 1020 isn't recognized by Windows 8.1

    I just installed Windows 8.1 and when I plug in my Lumia 1020, it isn't recognized.  In Device Manager it shows up under "Other Devices" as "Nokia Lumia 909 (RM-877)".  I understand that the 909 and the 1020 are the same so no mystery there.  When I right click and tell it to update the drivers, it says that there are no drivers available.
    I read in another thread where someone was having a similar problem and powering off the phone and then reconnecting it via the USB cable seemed to cause it to be recognized.  I am not having any success doing that.  I have gone through the steps listed by Microsoft also without any luck.
    I also have a laptop running Windows 7 and my phone is recognized by that computer without any trouble at all.  So, I don't *think* it is a hardware problem.
    I went so far as to re-install my OS.  I patched it, updated the BIOS and didn't connect or install anything else (besides the patches) before connecting my 1020.  Once I hooked up my 1020, still nothing.  Can't update drivers from the internet or from the downloaded drivers.
    What is going on?
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Use the USB cable that came with the phone.
    Connect the phone to the PC.  Turn it all the way off, hold power button and slide the screen down. The phone will turn back on and it will be detected, drivers should load.
    You should see it in windows explorer. It should install in 'portable devices' in the device manager.

    what can I do?

    Hello, victovic2000.
    Thank you for posting and welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions. 
    Sorry for the inconvenience it is causing you. By the way, how was the phone now? Is it still doing the same thing? Is it happening to the default camera only or same with the other camera app? Did something happen to your phone prior to the issue? Is your phone's software up-to-date?
    You may check if there's an available software update for your phone by going to Settings > Phone updates. Note that a stable internet connection is needed. We encourage you to use Wi-Fi instead. You may also consider doing a 'full reset' by going to Settings > About > Reset your phone. Make sure to backup your files to avoid data loss. Here's how: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/how-to/wp8/basics/back-up-my-stuff.

  • Lumia 1020 SMS Issue.

    Been having issues for a few months now and haven't been able to find any solutions online. I'm having an issue where I can not send messages to certain numbers and I am just receiving the "Can't send" message as if I had no signal. What's even more confusing is that I have no issue receiving messages from these numbers, I am just incapable of replying. Currently this is only affecting a few contacts, but obviously this is an extremely annoying issue. If you have any advice or tips to solve this issue I would greatly appreciate it. Oh and I've just carried out all possible updates and still the problem persists.
