Metadata fields missing in File Info

I had to reinstall PSCS3 and Bridge this morning. Have all of the updates as of today. Now, for some unknown reason, when I go to "File Info" I am missing many of categories on the left. All I have are "Description, Origin, and Advanced". Did I toggle off a setting in prefs that I didn't catch? Help keep me from going insane.

Problem solved on another site. If interested in the answer; I've included the link to the other forum post.

Import List Items with Managed Metadata Field from CSV File

Hello,
I try to import list items from a CSV File. Most of the fields are populating correctly except the Managed Metadata Field. I found multiple examples on how to set Managed Metadata Fields with Powersehll, but unfortunately I couldnt get it running.
The CSV File holds values for the Metadata Column, this value should be checked against the Metadata in the Termstore. If this Term is existent, then it should set the fields value, if it is not existant then it should add the term from the CSV File to the
Term Set in the Term Store. Can anybody give me a tip on how to do this? This is what I have, where Line 4 holds the Metadata:
$Siteurl = "http://siteUrl"
$Rootweb = New-Object Microsoft.Sharepoint.Spsite($Siteurl);
$Webapp = $Rootweb.Webapplication
$listName = "Catalogue"
$listWeb = Get-SPWeb $Siteurl
$list = $listWeb.Lists[$listName]
$pfad1 = "c:\temp\Servers.csv"
$content = import-csv -Delimiter ";" -Path $pfad1
foreach ($line in $content) {
$newItem = $list.Items.Add()
$newItem["Field 1"] = $line.1
$newItem["Field 2"] = $line.2
$newItem["Field 3"] = $line.3
$newItem["Field 4"] = $line.4
$newItem.Update()
write-host $line.Title imported
Thanks!!

Hi Jimmie,
From your description, when importing list from csv to SharePoint site, you would like to compare if Managed Metadata column exists in term store, and return yes value, if not, add it to term store.
That might need script to achieve. You need to import list at first, then get value from term store, and compare with the list. Change the list field per comparison result, then add new value to term store.
However, there might some workaround to meet your requirement. Not surly understand, so I find some references for you:
If you would like to export Term Set to CSV from SharePoint 2013, then you could compare it:

Custom metadata fields used in file name?

Hi,
Is it possible to add to the list of meta data fields that are used as tokens for file names?
I've been using Rob Cole's excellent custom meta data in the library module and now I want to use these fields to name the file during export...
While at it, is it possible to add the same custom meta data fields to the info view overlay in develop mode?
Cheers,
Bonny

1. Its possible an export filter (post-process action) could be defined that supports the custom metadata for export filenaming (Lightroom itself does not have any other hooks I'm aware of) - dunno if anyone's done that, yet.
2. I think not (see PM).

Category and Supplemental Category are missing from Photoshop CC 2014 File Info IPTC metadata

Photoshop CC 2014.0.0 is missing the File Info IPTC metadata fields Category and Supplemental Category. Is there a way to restore them? The new interface to all the IPTC fields is much less flexible—they cannot be rearranged or hidden as in Photoshop CC 14.x

How to reset/delete autocomplete entries in file info metadata?

I've got some autocomplete junk in some fields of the file info metadata - how do I delete it? Vista 64.
Thanks.

Yes, I agree, that was a vague description.
I open the File Info window for a single image or group of images to add location information. Once I've added, say a state such New Jersey in the state/province field, the next time I start to type"N" in that field the New Jersey autocomplete pops up. This is fine. The problem is I've added something wrong, such as Pensvylania (misspelled), and then I have that misspelled autocomplete popping up if I start to type "P". I also have some fragments, such as "Ne" where the autocomplete popped up and I just tabbed, rather than entered, and now I have "Ne" as an autocomplete choice.
There must be a file somewhere that stores those autocomplete possibilities. I wanted to find that file and delete the bad ones. I could not see how to delete that choice when I was working directly in the File Info panes.
Does this describe the problem a bit better?
Thanks.

Copy Labels (text) in Illustrator file into keyword (file info) field

I'm curious if there is any way to copy the text in an illustrator file, and paste it into the keyword field within the file info dialog box, with those words being separated by commas.
If I do this manually, the text is pasted as one long running word, making the keywords useless.
I do have an applescript which extracts the text from an illustrator file, and pastes it into an excel file, separating the words with commas, with file name. However, it doesn't seem possible to then import this data back in to multiple files. Bridge doesn't appear to be capable of this....
..so the alternative I can see would be to get the text directly into the file info box, separated by commas... just not sure how.
any ideas? I have thousands upon thousands of artfiles that need to be keyworded somehow!

Hallo Jay,
I think there is two ways:
a) Although I have no serious experiences with Bridge scripting I think you need a Bridge script which runs over your Illustrator files, calls an Illustrator script for collected labels and use the Bridge API to write the metadata back into the file.
b) You write an Illustrator script which runs over the files and collects the labels and creates a text file with these information (file name, keywords). Process this file and use a 3rd party XMP tool for adding these keywords to the file.

Tom

Do I need to do more than make a Custom File Info Panel

I downloaded the spec for XMP Custom Panels and have it partially working in Photoshop CS--see the code below. The problem is with namespaces. I want to put my info into a danser namespace in JPEGs. 1. The code below partially works in PS-CS but it puts the "Title" into dc:title and the "Season" into xap:Season 2. If I add xmp_namespace: danser to the edit_text then the panel fails to load in PS-CS. 3. I'm not clear on the purpose of the Metadata templates in Photoshops "File Info" Advanced tab. Do I need to make a template there? How? --or point me to instructions. (I made one but it didn't help.) <?xml version="1.0"> <!DOCTYPE panel SYSTEM "http://ns.adobe.com/custompanels/1.0"> <panel title="$$$/DISC/PanelName=danser" version="1" type="custom_panel"> group(placement: place_column, spacing: gSpace, horizontal: align_fill, vertical: align_top) { static_text(name: '$$$/danser/Title1=Title:', horizontal: align_left); edit_text(horizontal: align_fill, xmp_path: 'Title', vertical: align_top); static_text(name: '$$$/danser/Title1=Season:', vertical: align_left); edit_text(horizontal: align_fill, xmp_path: 'Season', vertical: align_top); } </panel>

I found the problem and also an easier way to do create Custom info panels.
The docs don't mention that you have to use an "xmp_ns_prefix" along with an "xmp_namespace". I found this parameter in the code generated by the free MetaLab application from poundhill.com
For example, the first editText line in my earlier post should be:
edit_text(horizontal: align_fill, xmp_ns_prefix: 'danser', xmp_namespace: 'http://ns.danser.com/danser/1/', xmp_path: 'Title', vertical: align_top);
MetaLab makes this process a lot easier. Do the rough work in it and then hand tweak the code to specify things like field height.
Once I made that change, everything worked--there's no need (for this purpose) to load XMP or templates in the advanced tab).

Customize the Custom File Info Panels ... how to?

Oh no! There are SWF files all over the place in Custom File Info Panels 2.0 (i. e. CS4) where plain old XML files used to be. I desperately need to add a few editable metadata entry fields to the File Info Panels. In CS3, that was easy. How am I supposed to do the same in CS4?

i I want a pint of beer!
Sorry, Adobeer has abandoned the concept of canned beer. If you want a beer then from now on you have to install, and to run, your own brewery in your backyard. For this purpose, Adobeer provides the new BDK (beer development kit). Of course, in order to use it, you first have to install the CSDK (construction site development kit) and the BMDK (barley-to-malt development kit), to be obtained from elsewhere.
i Huh ... barley? Malt?
Hey, do you really think you're entitled to have a beer when you don't know how to turn barley into malt, malt into mash, and mash into beer?
i I don't want my own brewery but just a pint of beer!
Hey, you just don't understand how great it is to brew your own, stupid.
i I don't have a backyard!
Go die in the corner, loser.

Print XMP File Info?

Hello -
Anyone know if there's a way (a relatively easy way) to include certain fields from XMP File Info in a printout? Specificaly, I'm trying to do this from Illustrator CS.
Thanks,
John

well i see this one has everyone stumped. whatsup, nobody knows the answer? I have the same question and would like to know, even if the answer is "no, it is impossible, can't be done, no way, no how".
If that is indeed the answer, please support it.

File info or metadata

I cannot seem to find a way to enter the job name into the "file info" or metadata in Photoshop CS. If the job name was entered in a previous version of photoshop such as PS7 it will appear in the file info under the advanced tab underthe XMP Basic job ticket properties but cannot be edited. As a work around I am using PS 7 to enter my job name and then using CS for everything else. There must be a better way. Am I missing something?

Ahem, well this is interesting. I haven't found a way to write a custom panel to display the JobName in CS and make it editable - perhaps a limitation to the panel language. One option is to create a template to apply to multiple files - either through the flyout menu in File Info, Replace in the Advanced panel or via the File Browser > Edit > Replace Metadata. Below is a template that I created. Best way to create your own is to save a template with the JobName property present, then go in an edit the file to remove the other template data and retain the jobName section as I did below. Edit the jobName value between the tags and rename the template - then use the Replace command to apply it to files in CS. Not a pretty work around. Otherwise I would suggest using another field going forward.

Bridge CS6 Mac XMP File Info Panel Bug: can't copy and paste metadata

The cmd-keys / shortcuts doesn't work in the xmp file info panel btw. in the xmp / iptc fields (e.g. cmd+c, cmd+v, ...) of Adobe Bridge CS6 (Mac OS 10.6.8 and 10.7.3). You are not able to cut and paste info from one box to another like previous versions.
This bug only appears in the xmp file info window (opened via alt+i) in Bridge CS6 - if you edit information or metadata in the file info panel in Photoshop CS6 copy and paste from one field to another works.
The shortcuts also work under Windows (tested under Vista).
I noticed this minor bug already one in the Photoshop CS6 Beta more than one months ago. I hoped that this was corrected in the official test version, but unfortunately it is not. Although it is a minor bug, it is IMHO a basic function and would be very helpful in my daily work - it is too bad, that such a small thing is making working with the application a little bit annoying.

Thanks! If there is a workaround or simple solution, I would be very glad if you could inform me.

XMP Custom File Info panels vs. Custom Metadata

Sorry if this question is a little confused, but I don't exactly know what I am talking about yet.
I use Rob Cole's custom metadata plug-in, which is great as far as it goes. As I understand it, it is a way to create custom data fields in the Lightroom database, give them labels, and manipulate and sort images according to those values. It is very useful for what it is. However, where it shows its seams is when you want to edit an image outside of Lightroom and then import the image back into Lightroom (for instance exporting the image, or editing it in Photoshop). In that case there is no way to get the data in the original into the derived copy except by doing it by hand, which can be very labor intensive if you, say, export a few hundred or a few thousand images. And, of course, you can only see the custom metadata in Lightroom, since it doesn't live in the file.
If I understand it correctly, "Custom File Info panels" for xmp data should just solve this problem. You would define your data, and it would be understood by "standard Adobe applications". A brief search of the web does not indicate that Lightroom is one of these "standard Adobe applications", so I assume that while I can use these panels in Bridge and in Photoshop, the data would not be available to me in Lightroom?
Any insight?
Thanks

Better ways:
1-1 or 1-many:
(on the file menu: plugin extras) which brings up:
If you want to do "many to many-others-like-them", you have to use a different plugin, like Relative Antics..

Many of us are hoping Adobe enhances Lr to provide better support for custom metadata - as you've noticed, Lightroom is not one of those "Standard Adobe Applications" referred to in the above link.

Metadata fields like Tags, page ID etc not available for a Content in Content Server info.

Hi,
Am trying to build a Webcenter Portal application with the help of a tutorial. This requires to upload files to Content Server and use these files to build the app. and to link the navigations for menu and sub-menus.
I have checked in the files manually into Webcenter Content but when checked for the Content Information, metadata fields like Tags, Page ID, Websites etc are not displayed.
These fields are necessary to relate to the Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) query used in application.
The tutorial link am referring to is : Connecting to and Managing Content Repositories - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.6.0)
Content Management system server version is: 11gR1- 11.1.1.7.0
Please let me know if am missing something.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks Naresh. It worked.
Can you please suggest few good links to gain more knowledge on UCM. I have tried a few, but not good enough.
Thanks,

Location IPTC field LR- PS survives file info edit...?

Hello all.
I like to put exact location information and notes into a file (within LR2) using the "location" field.
When I export these images I do not want this field to be included inthe jpeg's meta data.
I generally run a watermarking droplet/action after the LR export so can set that to remove the data via the File Info dialog in PS CS4.
However, it removes it fine and upon reopening the finished file in PS, the file info dialog shows that that the location field (in IPTC) is empty. All good.... Opening the image in photomechanic shows the field is still populated. Also looking at the jpeg in a text editor shows the info is indeed there.
The procedure above works fine for the "City", "State", and "Country" fields, it is just "location" that survives.
I have tried it all manually (rather than as part of an action) as well and the problem persists.
Any help appreciated!
Thanks,
Richard

Just made some investigations with ExifTool. Files saved as jpegs from photoshop somehow retain their location in IPTC, but no XMP (so it's the other way around my original assumption):
C:\>exiftool -iptc:sub-location "C:\20080715_1569.jpg"
Sub-location : Delfin Market
C:\>exiftool -xmp:location "C:\20080715_1569.jpg"
... nothing here ...
This happens on both JPEGs exported from Lightroom and original JPEGs that simply had their xmp metadata saved in Lightroom.
And by the way, if the JPEG is then saved in Photoshop via Save For Web, both IPTC and XMP get blank. So, if you modify your droplet to save for web (with All Metadata included), that could solve your problem.
Everything points to a bug in Photoshop.

Attributing certain metadata fields from FCs to file exports

Hello
I am looking to encode predefined, personalised metadata fields that are in FCs into the header of exported FCs files. Example, I have hundreds of files from castings and I want to keep certain non-technical info that is in FCs DB, in the header of the file, like the name, age, date etc. H264 as it seems to be reasonably metadata friendly.
I can't seem to find anything that defines this in the exports.
Any ideas are very welcome.

Take a look at
http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/
it may be possible to programmatically write EXIF tags to the quicktime
files.
Hope this helps.
