Multiple photo changes in Faces

Hi,
I'm wondering if there's a way to let Aperture know that multiple images do not have faces associated with them instead of going thru and un-clicking each face Aperture detects. For example, I took hundreds of pictures in a sumo wrestling tournament last week and Aperture is taking each photo of the crowed and making it into a face and that's a little annoying.

I'm having the same problem. I'm running a nice big 8 core mac, have 40,000+/- images in an Aperture Library taken with 4 different types of high-end DSLR cameras, and after DAYS of faces searching through everything, I'm now finding that there is no way to permanently ignore "permanently skip" a particular face? HELP!
What I've resorted to is creating "unknown1 / unknown2/ etc...." up to "unknown600" currently and basically it's rendering the ease-of finding things useless as I'm still having to go through nearly 1000 "face images" to find the person I'm looking for.
Obviously when you're shooting images of a crowd, you're going to pick up unknown people in the background which means Faces is doing a good job, but if the photographer cannot permanently ignore those faces then a photo of a bride in a crowd of 500 will generate (in theory) up to 501 faces and none of them can be permanently ignored? Further, when I restart Aperture 3, it goes back and re-recognizes all of those "skipped" faces.
I love the Faces concept, and WANT TO USE FACES (I know how to disable Faces, but really think it will be useful!) just need a way to PERMANENTLY SKIP people I don't want to face recognize and in the instructions, cannot find any way to do it PERMANENTLY as "skip" only does it for the session you are in.
Would love to hear a solution on this as apparently many others are having the same issue.
Thank you.

How do I do a mass change of face names in iphoto? For example, I have 500 pictures named Michelle Smith, but she is married and is now Michelle Johnson. How do I change all the photo face names to the new name en masse?

You edit the name in the Corkboard view.

How do I change the length of multiple photo's after I've added them?

How do I change the length of multiple photo's after I've added them?

Hey,
The best way to do this is to select all the clips by holding down the shift key or command key if the clips you want to change are not all right next to each other and then selecting each clip that you want to change. Then double-click on the clips which will open up the inspector tab and then you can change the duration. If you want to just change all clips to the same duration just double-click on one of the photos and in the inspector tab next to the durationt tab you will see a box that says "add duration to all clips". If you click that, when you change the duration all the photos will change to that duration. That will then change the duration of all the clips at the same time.

How to change duration of multiple photos

Greetings - I'm trying to change the duration of multiple photos in iMovie. Basically, I'm trying to change the duration of about 300 images (to make a time-lapse movie), but can't for the life of me figure out how to do it.
I need to change the duration of every photo to 0:03, but when when I do so, it automatically imports the photos with a duration of 9:29, and I can only change the duration of individual photos after import. I made a time-lapse move a while ago but can't remember how to do it. Any thoughts?

Select a group of your stills in the time line. (I would do maybe 30 at a time, because to do the whole 300 at once might overwhelm the machine -- though you could try.) Then go to Media > Photos > Show Photo Settings. In the Show Photo settings dialogue box, set your duration to 0:03, and then hit Update. The selected photos should all update to 0:03. You may need to remove the transitions first.
Another way would be to set your duration for 0:03 on the first photo that you import into your timeline. Then all other photos that you import afterwards will have that same duration.

Applying relative curve changes to multiple photos

Is there a way to apply same changes to the tonal curve to multiple photos while keeping their curve shapes relatively intact? For example, I want to make all Darks and Shadows 20 points lower. I know I can't make it with a preset as it contains absolute, not relative figures. I want something like Quick Develop (which are relative) except applied to the curve itself. Perhaps there's a mass edit plugin?

How to change "capture time" of multiple photos to a specific time?

Hi guys,
For some reason I'm trying to change "capture time" of multiple photos to a specific time.
I know that there is "Edit Capture Time" feature under Metadata.
But when I try to edit multiple photos, it says that "Modify the capture time stored in the selected photos by entering the correct time adjustment for the photo displayed to the left. Other photos (but not vidieos) will be adjusted by the same amount of time". And it really does.
For example,
If A file's capture time is 1/11/2011
B file's capture time is 1/11/2012
C file's capture time is 1/11/2013
I would like to change their capture time to 1/11/2014. All the three files.
But the current "Edit Capture Time" feature of Lightroom just adds three years to each file like this:
A file's capture time -> 1/11/2014
B file -> 1/11/2015
C file -> 1/11/2016
So their capture times remain as different ones. And this is not I want...
What should I do?
I've googled a lot and tried several programs other than lightroom as well, but the "Capture time" recognized by lightroom could not be changed by other programs.
I would greatly appreciate your help.

Sorry - I didn't see where you'd mentioned that you'd chosen the correct option, so I thought best to rule that out first.
Anyway, it sounds like a bug, which can be reported here:

In the mean time, you can use exiftool, or try your luck with the exif-write function of the exif-meta plugin, e.g.:
Note: if you use exiftool, you need to save metadata first, make the change, then read metadata in Lightroom, otherwise capture-time changes will be ignored by Lr.

Changing metadata for multiple photos at one time

Hi,
Is there a way to change the metadata (ie information) of multiple photos at a single time.
For example, I have a ton of pictures from a vacation. I would like to be able to select all of those photos and add the name of the vacation to all of them.
Thanks,
BT

1) Select all the photos you would like to modify
2) Select Photos->Batch Change
3) Set the drop-down to 'Comments'
Have at it!

LR 5.4 changing exposure on multiple photos on it's own

Using LR 5.4, fully patched on Mac Book Pro also all patched up (10.9.2). I process 800 - 1000 photos at a time from sports events, use presets a lot, also autosync to save time. Yesterday though, after completion of the process, suddenly lightroom started reverting the exposure back to a darker level, on some, but not all photos. Right in front of my eyes. Did not have multiple photos selected, nor autosync on. had only one photo selected, did not click on any preset. It seems to have left other settings (clarity, HSL, Lens Corrections, etc) alone. Any ideas? I spent a lot of time getting things right only to now have to go back and fix those photos that were affected.

Hi Rob,
If you mean the history list for any one photo, on the left hand side, no. Are there other history logs I should look at? But no, I've been post processing this way for a few years now. Just started happening after the last batch I imported last Saturday. Actually did not start until I had finished post and uploaded the picked and processed photos to one site, then was uploading to my personal site and noticed in looking at the thumbnails that some were suddenly way underexposed. Went back to LR and noticed same thing.
Then while I was in develop mode some of the thumbnails across the bottom started getting their exposure shifted back, just like you'd be applying a preset or autosync, but I only had one photo selected at the time.

How can i add multiple photos to an imovie at once from my ipad?

I am trying to create an imovie of photos that I have stored on my ipad using my ipad. It is only letting me add one photo at a time which is taking way too long. Is there a way to add multiple photos at once? Also, can I apply changes (like removing the Ken Burns effect all at once from all of the pictures? Hopefully I dont have to do it one at a time or it will take waay too long!
thanks

I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong. How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong. How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

If I understand you correctly, when you enter a date in the Adjust Date and Time window, the picture does not update with the date you enter. If that is the case then something is wrong with iPhoto or your perhaps your library.
How large a date change are you putting in? iPhoto currently has an issue with date changes beyond about 60 years at a time. If the difference between the current date on the image and the date you are entering is beyond that range that may explain why this is not working.
If that is not the case:
Remove the following to the trash and restart the computer and try again:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.iphoto
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iPhoto (There may be more than one. Remove them all.)
---NOTE: to get to the "home > library" hold down option on the keyboard and click on "Go" > "Library" while in the Finder.
Let me know the results.

How can I print multiple photos on the same page from iPhoto?

I want to print multiple pictures on one paper. How can I do that from iPhoto? If I select multiple photos they are printed on separate pages.

Select the photos and click print - select the printer, paper size and print size (be sure that they will physically fit on the paper) and click customize - on the resulting page click on the settings icon - the gear looking thingy at the bottom - and in the selection window set print multiple photos on a page - the preview should reflect this change - and click print again to continue

Multiple photo block issues?

Hello,
When I put multiple photo "blocks" in an iWeb Photo page, iWeb seems to do two odd things:
1. The slideshow only sees one of the two blocks - can't tell the pattern, whether it is the one on top or on the bottom.
2. When I click on the individual photos the wrong picture comes up.
For example, take a look at my work in progress page. I created it by placing a bunch of photos in the first three rows, and then creating a brand new row at the bottom for the last two photos so they are even and symmetrical instead of along the left side of the page and uneven. When you click on Slideshow, you can't see the last two photos, and when you click on either of the last two photos, instead photos from the top come up.
Anyone know a solution to either of these problems?
Thanks!
http://web.mac.com/danbmich/iWeb/Site/UW%20Arb.html
iBook Mac OS X (10.4.4)

IWeb only allows one photo group per photo page.
You can manually edit the photo.html file, to consolidate the two photo groups. But you have to do it every time you re-publish your site.
Open your photo.html in a text edit and search for:
onclick=" startSlideshow('0')
You see the first photo group index is from 0 to 8 and the second group is from 0 to 1. Change the second group to 9 & 10.
As for your slideshow, you have to add the second group pictures into the slideshow.html in your 'UW Arb' folder.

How to print multiple photos in Photo Papers Plus?

Hi, may I know how to print out multiple photos (let's say 2 photos) in Photo Paper (Mine is Photo Paper Plus Semi-gloss, 4*6 inch), without border (Borderless). Thank you.

I don't have your particular program, but many use Page Setup to configure the layout of printing from the File menu. If you can save as PDF you can configure Preview to change the page layout that way.

How do I apply a preset to multiple photos

I thought I could apply a single preset to multiple photos, I know I can apply the presets during import, but I selected multiple photo's and clicked on the preset, but the preset was applied to only one photo, what am I doing wrong?
I'm using LR 2 with Leopard (Intel)
Thanks.

I am not sure about Mac but on Windows, select the files Ctrl button and click the sync button at the lower right side. It should then change to Auto Sync and any changes you now make will be applied to all the selected photos. Make sure you change it back to sync mode when you are done, use Ctrl and click to reset. There may be other ways to achieve this.
See the post by John this should be easier.
