Metadata Panel - Resolve Conflict?

In the Metadata panel, when Metadata Status is “Up to Date”, why does LR still display the “Resolve Conflict” button to the right.  Is this normal behavior for LR 3.2? I tried both Save Metadata to File and Read Metadata from File, and the Resolve Conflict button stills shows.  Clicking on Resolve Conflict does not appear to do anything.
Mac OS X, ver 10.6.4

Jeff - Thank you for the response.
I use the thumbnail Unsaved Metadata badge to save metadata to files; I can read and write metadata to/from files without any problems. I have verified this with Bridge.  On my system, the little icon that appears to the right of the Metadata Status field that displays Resolve Conflict when you hover over it does not seem to serve a useful purpose.  Nothing happens when you click on the icon; and Resolve Conflict is displayed for both Metadata status set to "up to date" or "Has been changed".
Is this normal for LR3.2 or is it unique to my system?

  • Where do I find the original filename in metadata panels?

    I posted this question about retaining the filename but got no answers, so I'm trying again. It used to be in LR prior to Version 2 that you could select "Location" in the Metadata panel and you would see the original camera-generated filename. All my pictures in my LR database have this up until I upgraded to Version 2. Now, it's not there anymore. I want to be able to trace back to the original RAW file if the LR database copy goes corrupt (which has happened three times in 2 years). Any help would be appreciated - I can't locate any forum question/answer that addresses this.

  • After importing images from my card using LR 5.4, the GPS data does not show in the metadata panel. However, when I look at the imported images using Bridge, the GPS data is visible. Anybody know why LR is not seeing the GPS data? Camera is Canon 6D.

    After importing images from my card using LR 5.4, the GPS data does not show in the metadata panel. However, when I look at the imported images using Bridge, the GPS data is visible. Anybody know why LR is not seeing the GPS data? Camera is Canon 6D.

    Ok, the issue seem to be solved. The problem was this:
    The many hundred files (raw and xmp per image) have been downloaded by ftp in no specific order. Means - a couple of files in the download queue - both raw and xmps. Most of the time, the small xmp files have been finished loading first and hence the "last change date" of these xmp files was OLDER than the "last change date" of the raw file - Lightroom then seem to ignore the existence of the xmp file and does not read it during import.(a minute is enough to run into the problem)
    By simply using the ftp client in a way that all large raw files get downloaded first followed by the xmp files, we achieved that all "last changed dates" of the xmp files are NEWER than the related raw files. (at least not older)
    And then LR is reading them and all metadata information has been set / read correctly.
    So this is solved.

  • Creating custom Metadata panels in Bridge CS3

    I want to create a custom panel that allows me to enter 14+ pieces of information about an image that are not contained within the existing metadata panels.
    I can create a custonm panel in photoshop that is seen under 'File info' but I cannot see this information against a file in the metadata in Bridge.
    In the Bridge metadata panels you have individual panels such as GPS, IPTC Core, History, etc. Can I create my own custom panel to add to this list?
    If so how is it done? Where are the custom panel files stored?
    Many thanks

    Hi Bob,
    It seems that almost every day there is a new secret to explore on this forum... :-)
    According to the description in the link you had only a small typo (XML instead of XMP)

  • Metadata Panel missing in Bridge

    I have the latest version of CS4 (11.0.2).
    I was working in Adobe Bridge when an error msg. appeared saying that Bridge had a problem and would close. I rebooted, and when I accessed Bridge again, the Metadata Panel was missing. I have "Metadata Panel" checked under the Window menu item, but that doesn't help. I've unchecked and rechecked it, but to no avail.
    Any thoughts?

    I just fixed the problem by resetting the preferences. I found another problem in the forum that was solved in this manner, and I tried it. It worked, but I have no idea why.

  • Importing Images--Metadata Panel

    An early tutorial in the Long, Harrington, and Luna book in the Apple Training Series for Aperture 2 walks one through the steps to setup the metadata panel that will stamp each imported image with a common copyright, photographer name, etc. This panel opens when the Import function is active. It appears at the right of the screen. In the illustration in the book, and in the instance of Aperture 2 installed on my iMac, no problem--the long list has a scroll bar to reveal all of it for data entry. However, on my MacBook, there is no scroll bar present, and there is no evidence of any data entry opportunity. This is a serious problem since the aspect ratio on the MacBook screen is so wide compared to the much "taller" iMac screen. I've checked everything I can think of and am at a loss. Any ideas?
    I'm running Aperture 2.1.2 on both machines and the specs for both appear in my "signature" below.
    Terry

    In case you are still having problem. I had similar problem as per my previous post. After some thought I determined that it was a plist file problem. Here is what I did to fix the problem:
    I was able to solve the problem by deleting the com.apple.aperture.plist file
    First I made note of all my preferences, then I deleted the file. Closed Aperture and then re-booted the MacBookPro.
    Once I rebooted and relaunched Aperture, reset preferences and closed Aperture and then restarted Aperture and now the Import panel is back to normal with the appropriate lists showing for the "add metadata from" presets.
    Hopefully this will help others.

  • Custom Metadata panel to show linked graphics from InDesign files?

    Hello all,
    I'm looking to create a custom Metadata panel to show linked graphics from InDesign files. I'm not even sure if this is possible. Can someone please point me in the right direction? I figure if you can see the fonts used in an InDesign file, you should probably be able to pull the links, right?
    Thanks for any and all help!

  • 10g streams and resolving conflicts

    Hello
    i configured oracle streams on 2 databases using the wizards in enterprise manage (10gR2) r, the aim is to set up multi master replication quickly and easily.
    If i do this how do i resolve conflicts or are they resolved automatically? I read that you can call
    DBMS_APPLY_ADM.SET_UPDATE_CONFLICT_HANDLER(
    object_name => 'hr.locations',
    method_name => 'MAXIMUM',
    resolution_column => 'time',
    column_list => cols);
    but this is not inserted into teh scripts generated by enterprise manager. Is it there a default conflict policy? or can i
    configure this globally?
    Also i noticed that my servers from time to time stop reqwplication and flow gets paused with an enqueue error. Is this just a resource issue?
    I am limited currently as I am trying this out with vm images.
    Am willing to upgrade to 11g if functionality of streams is better.
    Thanks

    You are seriously confusing totally different technologies.
    The name of this forum is Advanced Queueing.
    Your question appears to be about Streams
    Then you ask about multimaster replication which sounds like Advanced Replication.
    What are you actually doing and with what technology are you doing it?
    I have no experience doing this with EM, only hand coded scripts via SQL*Plus so I can not comment on what EM is doing or not doing.
    But without a clear understanding of what conflicts are possible in the case of your design it is impossible to advise you further. A well
    designed system should make conflicts if not impossible ... extremely rare and narrowly focused.

  • IPTC extended metadata panel in Bridge CS5

    Hi, hope someone can help me here.
    I am working in a museum digitizing paintings and using Bridge CS 5 to enter the metadata. IPTC extended is ideal for that, but I can not access the metadata panel to the side. I have found it in the preferences (and did all the clicking and customization) but it still does not display. I assumed that because there were preferences it must be accessible but I am not finding that to be the case. I have accessed it through the info panel in Photoshop but I don't want to have to open every image just to add this stuff, why can't I access it through Bridge?
    As a note, I have also downloaded the panel update from IPTC for earlier versions, but I don't have access to those versions at work, just CS 5, so that won't work as a workaround. The site says CS 5 is ready to go out of the box.
    Can I access the extended metadata panel in Lightroom? Am I just missing something? Please help.
    Thanks.
    Miles

    Miles:
    As Rich Wagner pointed out, the IPTC Extended is not accessible via the Metadata panel within Adobe Bridge for CS5. I would hope that this is only a temporary situation, but have no inside knowledge as to when this might occur.
    Use of the Metadata Templates is one way to add "batch" metadata that is only available in the IPTC Extended metadata schema.
    Another option you might want to check is the IPTC-PLUS toolkit.
    http://www.iptc.org/goto/?iptcplustoolkitadobecs
    This is a java driven separate dialogue that can be applied to one or more images from within Bridge and includes all of the fields within the IPTC Core, IPTC Extension and PLUS metadata schemas. You can download the IPTC-PLUS toolkit from the link above. A users guide with full instructions on how to use the various fields as well as how to install are included in the download package.
    BTW, John Nack blogged about this option back in July. http://blogs.adobe.com/jnack/2010/07/iptc-plus-toolkit-extends-bridge-guides-photographers .html
    Hope that helps.

  • Exif metadata not displayed in Metadata panel & searching

    Is there a way to customize the exif and/or IPTC data shown in the Metadata panel in LR 5?
    And is there a way to search and/or filter on metadata not in that panel?
    I needed to find some photos that have the exif category "art filter" and I cannot search for the value in that field in LR, nor does that field show up in the metadata panel. I can see it with J. Friedl's metadata plugin, or in GraphicConverter, so I know it's there. I tried searching on the text, but LR doesn't find it. What I'd really love is the feature where you have the little arrow by the metadata value in the panel and click it to filter by that criteria.
    Is there a way to get LR to recognize and display other exif or IPTC data?

    I'm not sure which metadata field you want to search -- is it the IPTC field "Category"?  That field is displayed in Metadata > IPTC panel in the right column:
    Unfortunately, that field is not searchable using LR's text search filter or smart collections. 
    In general, to view and search metadata fields not fully handled by LR, you've got to use a third-party plugin:
    - Metadata Extensions makes additional fields that LR knows about searchable using the filter bar and smart collections.
    - ExifMeta makes nearly all metadata fields viewable and searchable in LR.
    - Data Explorer lets you more quickly view, search, and browse more of the fields that LR knows about.
    - Any Filter lets you search any field LR knows about, writing boolean search queries similar to smart collections.
    These plugins have different capabilities and are optimized for different use cases.

  • About the top end of Metadata panel

    I want to know that the different Icons on the "Dashboard" or whatever we call the top end of Metadata panel. The smallish white rectangle with a good bit of info inside and next to it a grey rectangle with more details. (See inlined image below)
    I scanned a while in the help file but haven't come up with a discription of all the various icons and what they mean... I suspect it might vary by camera too so more complications.
    The one thats bugging me now is incuded below; what does the the human figure mean?  And further where can I get a detailed discription of what all the different icons that might appear in that white rectangle might mean?

    It's called the metadata placard.  There's a good description in the Bridge help pdf.  The position where the human figure is located contains an icon for white balance.  That white balance icon represents 'custom.'  Look in help url below and search on 'metadata placard.'

  • Custom Info Panel as Bridge MetaData Panel

    Hello,
    I have built a Custom XMP InfoPanel that shows up in CS6 Bridge just fine! But for ease of data entry we want it to show up in the Bridge MetaData panel. How is this done with the latest best practices?
    I have looked everywhere found a number of ways, but ALL are out dated! The XMP FileInfo SDK doesnt cover this.
    Thank you
    Dean Krueger

    Hi Science_DC,
        You are missing the zstring in your label or description and the same issue is with properties too. For testing i changed only two properties but you need to do the smae for others too.  I tested after using the ZString and it's working fine in Bridge too. Please find the original and modfied code (only for two properties)
    1. Your original properties.xml is
    <xmp_schema prefix="custom" namespace="http://my.custom.namespace/" label="<Your label>" description="<Your Panel Description>">
            <!-- simple properties -->
            <xmp_property name="Text" category="external" label="<Property Name>" type="text"/>
            <xmp_property name="Text2" category="external" label="<Property Name>" type="text"/>
    </xmp_schema>
    Insert the ZString like below (inserted text are in bold)
    <xmp_schema prefix="custom" namespace="http://my.custom.namespace/" label="$$$/Custom/Panel/Label=<Your label>" description="$$$/Custom/Panel/Description=<Your Panel Description>">
            <!-- simple properties -->
            <xmp_property name="Text" category="external" label="$$$/Custom/Panel/Property1 Name=<Property1 Name>" type="text"/>
            <xmp_property name="Text2" category="external" label="$$$/Custom/Panel/Property2 Name=<Property2 Name>" type="text"/>
    </xmp_schema>
    2. Put that propery file in Custom File Info Panels/4.0/panels (at the same place where DCIM.xml and mobile.xml is)
    Following is the screen shot which I got after ZString insertion (CS6 Bridge)
    If it doesn't work, could we do remote desktop?

  • What happened to exposure-related EXIF values in the Metadata panel?

    In Bridge CS5, the EXIF section of the Metadata panel would have an "Exposure" entry with info like "1/50 s at f/2.8".  This appears to be missing in Bridge CS6.  The option is there and checked in Preferences, but it never shows up in the panel itself.  I've looked at raw files from the Nikon D700, Nikon D800, Canon 5D and Canon 7D... no exposure information shows up.
    I know Bridge/ACR can read the info because it appears in the Metadata Placard, but that is not useful to me.  I often need to select a range of images and quickly see if they all have the same exposure.  In Bridge CS5, the exposure settings are displayed if they are all the same, otherwise "(multiple values)" is shown.   The placard, on the other hand, simply goes blank once multiple images are selected, even though they all share identical exposure settings.
    Bug, or "feature"?  Bridge CS6 5.0.0.399 64-bit, ACR 7.1.

    Anyhow, I was just trying to explain why I use the Exposure entry in the EXIF panel.  Regardless of why I need it, it still appears to be a bug, since I can enable/disable it in Bridge preferences, yet it appears to have no effect in the panel itself.
    Brian,
    Sorry, I did get a little carried away and sometimes tend to forget that everyone has it own needs and workflow
    Regarding the other posts I can only confirm that as soon as I alter my DNG files the exposure line (that in default settings is not selected in Bridge Preferences BTW) disappears (I have set to not show empty fields) and after clearing settings the line fills back again with the info for exposure.
    Did not check other lines but maybe there are even more.
    This one seems to have slipped through during the 64 bit transition and you should file it as a bug indeed because CS5 has correct behavior for this.
    You might best do so your self (your discovery) on the Photoshop.com page
    http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/
    and inhere select 'a problem' and describe this behavior.
    About your workflow, I tried Peters script several years ago but could not get it to work to suit my workflow. I also have no need (nor wish) for such a large production number but having get used to a workflow and not being able to is quite frustrating.
    However I have changed my workflow multiple times due to changed options and often it appeared for the better
    I only use ACR mainly for color temperature and exposure to bring back highlights. Often with selecting multiple files  in Bridge and with right mouse click copy paste ACR data to have a good start but I do need to fine tune a bit afterwards in ACR. Maybe I give the script another go.
    My process is based on the excellent ideas from Guy Gowan, who has a remarkable fast and amazing workflow in PS itself using adjustment layers based on channel masks. And after running the process also easy to fine tune with percentages using button mode in action panel.
    As said, everyone has his own workflow

  • Why does Bridge Metadata Panel look like this...?

    I just updated to Photoshop CS6 from CS5.1 and trying to iron out a few issues. One is this...
    In Bridge CS 6 my Metadata Panel items are truncated for some reason. There is plenty of room in the panel width, so...? I have even pulled the width out further than shown below. There are no problems with the other panels.
    Below are pics of the same panel in my install of CS 6 and then the same panel in my installation of CS 5.1.  Thanks.
         CS 6                                                                                                CS 5.1

    You've made the headings column too narrow.
    Hover your cursor over the space between the 'e' in Fil...e and _IGP1220.DNG.  It will change to a resizing indicator, indicating there's a hidden division there.  Drag it to the right to make enough room for the headings.
    Here's what I see, by the way, when I reduce the UI color to the blackest I can get it in Bridge CS6...

  • Conflict Resolver trying to resolve conflicts from 2004

    It's irritating..... having used Entourage and iCal since 2004, now in trying to sync with 3g, I am getting this pop up that asks me to resolve conflicts dating back in 2004. Is there an option where I can ask it to ignore retroactive dates? My only option is 'resolve with < program here >'

    After our power went off, I came home to find 64 "conflicts". Evidently an .mac folder was deleted, but I seem to have resolved that. However, no matter HOW many times i "resolve" the conflicts between the Mac and my Palm Treo 650, every few minutes Conflict Resolver pops up with the same 64 conflicts. Very frustrating. I wonder if there is a com.apple...... file out there somewhere to delete and start over.
