Managing library

Hello!
I am finding that my iPhoto '11 is very sluggish and crashes periodically. Editing takes a long time these days. I am in the process of trying to find a better way to manage my library and I think I would like to run a referenced library. My question is, I have 92 GB of photos on a 500 GB Macbook Pro with approximately 300GB of free disk space. This makes me wonder if the size of the library is really the problem. Anyone have any tips or advice?
Thank you!

A Referenced Library will make no difference to performance issues and create far more problems than it solves.
At 92 gigs, with 300 free space, size is not the issue. I have one more than 4 times the size of yours with no performance issues.
Have you tried rebuilding it?
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 Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
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.

  • I have adobe digital edition 2.0 and I am trying to authorize my erreader, but I am unable to find the 'manage library' before I open ADE.

    I have adobe digital edition v2.0 and I am trying to authorize my erreader, but I am unable to find the 'manage library' before I open ADE.  Where to I find the 'manage library'? and should I upgrade the ADE to version v1.7.2.?

    To make Mail quit you'll need to perform a forced quit or, failing that, a forced shutdown.
    When an application won't quit you can hold the Command and Option keys together and then type the ESC key. This (usually) brings up a dialog with all the running applications. Select the offending program and click the Force Quit button.
    If this doesn't force the application to quit (quite rare) or if you cannot get the Force Quit Dialog to pop up, hold the power button for about 10 seconds to shut down the entire computer. This should be a last resort but sometimes is necessary.

  • How to use Cache Management Library (CML) for custom applications?

    Hello,
    We are planning the migration of multiple applications (J2EE, Portal, Web-Dynpro for Java) from 7.01 to 7.3 and we would like to replace some custom cache implementations with a central cache management provided by the SAP Web-AS Java.
    Several SAP standard services (e.g. UME, Configuration Manager, Scheduler) seems to use the "Cache Management Library" (CML):
    [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/4a/f833eb306628d2e10000000a42189b/frameset.htm]
    Such caches can be monitored using SAP Management Console (AS Java Caches).
    Portal Runtime (cache_type=CML) and Web Page Composer can also be configured to use CML:

  • Question related to use of a managed library in iPhoto11

    Question 1 - A family member decided to place folders with photos on the desktop. I want to import those photos and delete those folders from the desktop? Will the photos be properly transferred and stored in iPhoto 11?
    Question 2- The photos were placed on the desktop for external transfer via email, drop box etc. Can this be done within iPhoto 11 instead of locating photos external to the software?

    1. If you're running a managed library, yes.
    A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
    A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.

  • Managed library size vs images plus referenced library

    I have referenced library 18,1Gb and 109,7Gb image folder (all of them in Aperture). If I like to move to managed library, is it bigger or smaller than 128Gb (18+110) and if it is, is the difference significant? Do anyone know that?

    Today a Managed-Masters Library for you would be about six times as big as your current Library, meaning six times larger Vaults and/or Library copies that take longer to create. And a Managed-Masters Library would keep growing and slowing the drive it lived on.
    If currently your Referenced-Masters Library and the Masters are on the same drive maybe now is a good time to move the Masters to an external drive to maintain the speed of the internal drive with the Library on it. Or if you have lots of space leave Masters where they are until the drive gets about half full.

  • Aperture - Converting Managed Library to Referenced Library?

    I goofed. I've been using Aperture for a while, and I now realize that by importing my image files directly into my Aperture library on my 1TB iMac hard drive, this managed library is now 430GB... I need to streamline. I understand (now) the benefit of using reference libraries wherein the image files themselves are stored elsewhere (I have a 3TB external USB drive) and the Aperture library accesses/utilizes the files from that location. The big question - how do I convert my current managed library to that referenced library model? If I copy my entire 430GB Aperture library folder from the iMac hard drive 'Pictures' folder over to the 3TB external drive, it's still a managed library in that new external drive location but now with USB access times added to the Aperture work flow... correct?
    I'm assuming I need to somehow 'export' my image files to the 3TB external drive, and then tell Aperture to build a reference library off of those image files - correct? If so, is there an specific way to do this? Also, if I create a referenced library as described above, I assume that in the future I will need to import image files from my camera to the 3TB external drive outside of Aperture, and then use Aperture to import them from that 3TB drive into the Aperture reference library via Aperture 'Import'... correct?
    Thanks in advance for any insight here.

    It's all a lot easier than you expect.
    Libraries are neither managed nor referenced, they are just libraries. It's the images within the libraries that can be either managed (stored with the library) or referenced (stored external to it). So within a single library you can have a combination of both (if you have a reason to).
    But the simple answer to your question is, select all your photos, and from the file menu choose "Relocate Originals". It will prompt you for where to store them. Create a folder on your external (eg "Masters" or "Originals") and chose a folder structure to store them in (I use the project name for subfolders - but more complex options can be created using 'edit'). Press relocate button and go have a well earned beer while it relocates them for you.

  • IPhoto Managed Library and Referenced Library. What is the difference?

    In a reply regarding iphoto TD mentions managed library and referenced library. What is the difference and how do you set them up?

    A Managed Library is the default setting, photos are copied into the iPhoto Library on import. In this scenario, iPhoto is responsible for the file management.
    A Referenced Library means that iPhoto does not touch the files when you import them. They remain where they were and iPhoto References them in their location.
    Simply go to iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Advanced and uncheck 'Copy Files to the iPhoto Library on Import'.
    Now iPhoto will not copy the files, but rather simply reference them on your HD. To do this it will create an alias in the Originals Folder that points to your file. It will still create a thumbnail and, if you modify the pics, a Modified version within the iPhoto Library Folder.
    However, you need to be aware of a number of potential pitfalls using this system.
    1. Import and deleting pics are more complex procedures
    2. You cannot move or rename the files on your system or iPhoto will lose track of them on systems prior to 10.5 and iPhoto 08. Even with the later versions issues can still arise if you move the referenced files to new volumes or between volumes.
    3. Most importantly, migrating to a new disk or computer can be much more complex.
    Always allowing for personal preference, I've yet to see a good reason to run iPhoto in referenced mode unless you're using two photo organisers.
    If disk space is an issue, you can run an entire iPhoto Library from an external disk:
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    If you're concerned about accessing the files, There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    *For Users of 10.5 and later*
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    *For users of 10.4 and later* ...
    Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    *If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
    For users of 10.6 and later:
    You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and later:
    Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    *For working with an External Editor*
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
    Lots of folks are attracted to the idea of a Referenced Library - well I can see my files! But, frankly, unless you're an experienced Mac user I would stay well away. Not infrequently we see folks here complaining that iPhoto has "lost their photos" when what has happened is that they have imported from the Camera Card in Referenced Mode, then erased the card. Even more common, any change in the path the the file - renaming a disk, folder or file - for instance when migrating to a new machine, when trying to make space on the start up disk by moving files off the an external - also causes big problems.
    If you really, really want to run a Referenced Library check out Aperture. It has tools that are much stonger in the area - like migrating tools and reconnecting tools.

  • Managed LIbrary and External Drives

    I want to transfer my Aperture library to an external drive, continuing to operate on a 'manage' basis, as I'm rapidly running out of room on my internal drive.
    This external drive will be exclusive to Aperture and I wish to back this up to another external drive (again only to be used for Aperture back up) using time machine.
    Currently I'm backing up to a 1TB drive which I wish continue to use via time machine for everything else.
    Am I asking too much? If not can anyone advise how to do.
    Many thanks.

  • Managed Library

    This is copied from a post back in 2009
    1. Do I now have two copies of the original photos I copied into the folders first--the one I copied and one created by iPhoto?
    Assuming that you have a Managed Library, yes.
    If you're running a Managed library, then it's the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. Simple Check: Select a pic in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). A Finder Window will open with the file selected. In the Finder you can track back to the location of the photo. If it's Managed it will be inside the iPhoto Library.
    *Every answer from here assumes you have a Managed Library*. If you haven't, by all means post back.
    I don't get how to see if it's a managed library--I did all the steps and got to the finder, then clicked the back button and it just went to the window with the HD icon and Network icon. Does that mean it isn't a managed library? How do I make it one? I want to be able to delete all of my files of pictures that are already imported to iPhoto (from documents, and downloads, etc.) but I don't want to lose them if they're not safe in iPhoto.
    I hope this makes sense, I'm confusing myself. Thank you

    This shows the difference between managed and referenced as far as iPhoto's preferences are concerned:
    If you have a managed library then you can delete the source photos that you imported into it. And managed means iPhoto takes care of all house cleaning when you delete photos, move them around, etc.  There's nothing you need to do outside of iPhoto when running a managed library.  And, as Larry suggested, it's not recommended.

  • Managed library equivalent in lightroom

    I was considering moving from Aperture to Lightroom (and even got a licence for it).
    I might revert my decision because I did not find a way to manage my files that is as practical as the managed library of  Aperture.
    Most of my pictures are offline, and on different HDs.
    I have various backup of my pictures, in different places, so I need to be able to easily reconnect them to my master library.
    Aperture libraries (the equivalent of the catalog in lightroom) have a  structure that does not change.
    I can simply simply locate files and reconnect them to the library. The library looks the same regardless where the files are.
    In lightroom, if I connect images from a different HD, the files are moved under a different HD tree.
    The structure of the library is lost and split under various HD headings.
    This is very inconvenient for me, because then the catalogue structure changes and things get very messy very quickly.
    Is there any way to avoid this?
    Can I have one structure in a master catalog and be able reconnect files to it without changing it?
    Thanks for any advice on this. I would like to use lightroom, but if I cannot sort this issue out I will give up on it. :-(

    This is all very useful, thanks. I will experiment with collections.
    If I understand well, a good routine could be:
    1) import files normally, creating a new folder
    2) drag this folder in collections, to create a new collection that correspond to the folder imported
    3) when the collection is created, I can ignore the folders and work through collections.
    Yes, that is the shortest possible workflow for this.
    I would like to select multiple pics in a collection and locate referenced files for all of them at once.
    However it appears that I have 2 options, but none ideal
    1) reconnect  pictures from a collection. The locate menu appears when I click the "?" in an individual picture, but I cannot find it for a selection of multiple pictures. It is true that when i click "?" for one picture I am also asked if I want to "locate nearby missing photos", but I would like to retain control of what pictures I select and reconnect... and I am not sure what "nearby missing photos" really means
    2) I can revert to the  folder structure: go to the corresponding folder, use the command "find the missing folder" and link pics to a different HD from there. But I would love to avoid the extra step of going back to folders, and just stick to collections.
    I would do a short variation of 2): right-click on the image indicated as missing in the collection, and choose "Go to Folder in Library". This will navigate you into the folder without you manually searching it.
    Then have a look if possibly the folder entry has the "?" for missing. If so, right-click on this folder and choose "Find missing folder". Then all of its content will be updated in 1 go. Do this for the highest parent folder which still shows "?".
    Nearby missing photos are from the same folder, but I'd guess it would only work if you reconnect an indiviual image from the folder, not the collection - as otherwise LR might have no clue about *nearby*.
    Close the folders-panel again and revert to your collections.
    Another question I have is: is dragging a folder the best way to create a collection? Or are smart ones (as suggested by cornelia-i) a better option?
    I am resorting to dragging, rather than creating a "smart collection" (matching the original forlder name), because I noticed that if I try to reject pictures from such smart collections I receive an error message, whilst it work from a normal collection it is all fine.
    Smart folders vs. dumb-dragged ones: it depends:
    If you never touch the storage location of the folder after initial import, dragging might fully suffice. And if that matches your searching habits, what you'd expect from collections.
    If you want to rearrange folders or use different criteria how many/which you would want to find in 1 collection's entry, then smart collections are preferable.
    Just bear in mind that if you ever want to rearrange folders, you should do so from within LR, therefore of course having to return to the folders panel for this task. Otherwise you will have missing images, and the workload to relink.

  • Managed library - Drobo or Standalone FW800 Drive?

    Greetings to all from Sydney, Australia!
    I currently have my Aperture 3 managed library on a Drobo connected via FW800 to my 24" iMac 2.8 GHz Core 2 Duo running under Leopard 10.5.8.
    It seems slow when I am editing images - there is always a delay between moving a slider and getting a change in the image.
    Would this be improved by moving the library to a separate FW800 external drive rather than on the Drobo? or is this just normal Aperture operation?
    Thanks in anticipation of any advice and opinions.

    Aperture is a heavy pro graphics app that is very demanding of hardware. Your iMac's CPU, GPU, i/o and RAM are all probably limiting to Aperture so we need to do what we can to optimize.
    Some generic advice I posted in another thread:
    • Set Previews to only be built manually, and only tell Aperture to build Previews when you are not otherwise editing in Aperture.
    • Keep the internal drive underfilled for speed, which sooner or later usually requires using a Referenced-Masters-Library with Masters on external drives. Back up originals before importing into Aperture or any other images app.
    • The Aperture Library should be on an internal drive.
    • Turn off Share Previews with iLife and iWork.
    • Remember that HDs slow as they fill and keep the internal drive underfilled. Approx. 70% full maximum is a good guideline.
    • If page outs increase significantly during operation try to run Aperture by itself. On my C2D MBP with its max of 3 GB RAM I always did a restart prior to a heavy Aperture session to clear any memory leaks and make sure no other apps were open. Browsers in particular will often suck RAM Aperture would otherwise be using.
    IMO all Aperture users who can should routinely bump RAM to at least 8 GB.

  • Managed Library - Reveal file in finder option ?

    I am using a managed library , if I want to view a file manually I am not able to locate an option which will reveal the file in finder option for me.

    I am in fact quite happy with the option of managed library quite frankly . Saves me the hassles of individuals backups.

    A managed library can be a good choice.
    You should simply import the new videos, put them where you want, and tag, flag, and album them as you did the others. Then delete the unsupported version(s).
    A cardinal rule of a managed library is: DON'T TOUCH THE FILES IN THE LIBRARY with any program but Aperture.

  • Backing up a managed library in Aperture 3

    So after much reading this is what I'm thinking..I'm hoping some of you very experienced aperture people will comment on this.
    Planning a new managed library (may make it referenced in the future but not for now). Have (2) 3 TB external Seagate HD and a 1TB external.
    1. Planning on using the 1TB to host the vault and ask it to backup at least once a week (this computer solely used for aperture so backing up entire hard drive to Time machine was not my plan). (Probably download about 300-500 images a week).
    2. Then plan downloading the masters directly onto 1 of the Seagates outside of Aperture, though this will include crappy and good images, taking up a lot of space, I'm okay with that. T
    3. Thirdly using the second Seagate and having that be the backup utilized through import settings thru Aperture.
    Not worried about all of these backups being in the same building (fires, earthquakes, etc) or about the computer/hard drives being stolen.  Also should I have one of these backups not include previews to save on space?
    Thoughts?
    Thanks!!

    I actually find this very helpful because my Aperture (version 3.4.2) is extremely slow and crashes very often.
    This can also be an indication that your Aperture Library needs repairing, or you may have imported corrupted media - image files or incompatible videos.
    I'd try the Aperture lIbrary First Aid Tools to repair the database and permissions, if necessary to rebuild the Library, see:
    Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library: Aperture 3 User Manual
    After a crash it is always a good precaution to repair the library, since a crash may interrupt a database transaction and leave the Aperture library in an inconsistent state.
    If repairing/rebuilding does not fix the slowness, check your recent imports, if they contain incompatible videos or images that cannot be adjusted and cause Aperture to crash.

    All Infos i found tells me:
    - that i doesn't need to restart the Instance of the Database
    - i must only remove the old link in $ORACLE_HOME/lin/libobk.so and take a link new link $ORACLE_HOME/lin/libobk.so to the new Backuplibrary in /opt/omni/lib/libob2oracle8.so
    But this doesn't work!
    Any usefull Hints?
    I always try the RMAN Command's:
    CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' CLEAR;
    CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' clear;
    Nothing help...
    My last Idea ist to reboot the whole Database, but this is a little difficult 8-)

    hi,
    all Systems are 32 Bit (Database Oracle 9.2.0.5 and DP6.0).
    What do you mean with "what is Version DP6" ?
    HP Dataprotector 6.0 with Patch DPLNX_00013
    thx
