Number of photos in file

Seems like previous versions of LR (2. and lower) would display the total numer of photos in the the entire file structure beneath the file highlighted.  LR 3.0 and up appears to only display the number of photos in the highest level of the file structure. Currently LR does not indicate the total number of photos in a file in there are sub folders.  Consider the following example: ( I didn't replicate all the "photo" names for the LR 2 file example)
Folders display:
Lightroom 3.0 and up:                                              LR 2:
     2002 (0)                                                                     2002 ( 78)                                             
          Family (0)                                                                     Family (75)

I found the old method much more useful in managing the catalog.  Is there a setting that can be adjsuted to restoree the previous method?  Thanks in advance.

In Library Module, choose menu item Library/Show Photos in Subfolders.

    How can I insert a number of photos into a numbers doc without the file becoming too large?

    Use smaller photos.
    Seriously, reduce the file size of the photos in Preview, PhotoShop, iPhoto or other application before inserting tehem into the Numbers document.

  • Can't load thumbnail photo from file 'BBThumbs.dat'

    Hi everybody,
    I'm developing an application on BB to take and view photo. My problem is can't load the thumbnail photos from file 'BBThumbs.dat'. I'm using code as below:
    public byte[] getThumb(String fileName) {
    String DB = fileName.substring(0, fileName.lastIndexOf('/'))
    + "/BBThumbs.dat";
    fileName = fileName.substring(fileName.lastIndexOf('/') + 1, fileName
    .length());
    if (thumbsMap == null) {
    thumbsMap = new Hashtable();
    byte b[] = null;
    FileConnection fc = null;
    InputStream in = null;
    try {
    fc = (FileConnection) Connector.open(DB, Connector.READ);
    if (!fc.exists()) {
    return null;
    byte[] temp=new byte[(int)fc.fileSize()];
    in = fc.openInputStream();
    DataInputStream is=new DataInputStream(in);
    // b = getThumbNail(first, thumbsMap, fileName, in);
    is.readFully(temp);
    b=readThumbs(temp, fileName);

    example:

    'Parent;Child;DataStorage;MemberValidForPlan1;MemberValidForPlan2;MemberValidForPlan3;Plan1Aggregation;Plan2Aggregation;Plan3Aggregation;UDA
    #root;Brand1;StoreData;Y;Y;Y;+;+;+;
    #root;Brand2;StoreData;Y;Y;Y;+;+;+;
    Even more as an idea use pipes, maybe.
    But you will need to say something about Aliases as well if this is a planning application.

  • Maximum number of  photos in iPhoto 5

    When I had my older G4 and older version of iPhoto (3.0 I think), scrolling and other functions would be extremely slow if my library go too big. So I split my iPhoto library into several smaller ones using iPhoto Library Manager. Now that I have a fast new iMac G5 and the latest version of iPhoto, I would like to merge libraries into one for convenience. With this hardware and OS 10.4.3, is there a suggested maximum number of photos not to exceed in the main iPhoto library for reasons of performance? I am not really a power user, but don't want scrolling and dragging to take forever like they did on the G4...

    Hi rsm,
    How many images are you talking about here?
    How many images in each Library do you have?
    What is the make of your camera?
    Steve Jobs told us 20,000, but we have really got mixed results on that number.
    Depending on your camera, it can make huge Makernote files that will considerably slow down iPhoto to the point of uselessness.
    You can do a search within iPhoto 5 here in the forum for "Makernote" so you will understand the problem.

  • Is there a connection between the performance and the number of photos?

    Is there a connection between the performance of LR 4 (LR 5) and the number of photos in the catalog? Will it slow down LR with a directory of more than 40,000 images (Win7, 4 Gb RAM)?

    I use lots of smart and dumb collections, lots of keywords too, also on Win7/64 though with 12Gb of Ram.
    Have you read through Optimizing performance, especially running a File > Optimize. Also Performance hints is more handy for troubleshooting.

  • Can't import photos from files and folders

    Elemetns 11-- jsut bought it yesterday. Have used previosu versions for years but not on this pc.
    Each time I try to import, it goes thorugh some number of photos, up through 2,00 plus sometimes and then says import failed and I get nothing. It claims the file is the wrong type (only jpgs and psds). I don't know what the stumbling block is or why elements doesn't jut ignore files it can't read and go on to the next.
    Any help. AT this point Elements is totally useless for me.
    tia,
    sh

    After posting I tried importing one directory at a time until I found one that made elements screw up.
    thentry smalll groups of files in that directory until I, like running through a binary tree, narrowed down the offending file.
    Then I remoce that one file and continue searching for the next file What should have been a single operation taking minutes was very tedious, manually wading going through hundreds of directories and thousand of files.
    Outcome:  there were 3 troublesome files (each in a different directory) holding up the import of more than 11,800 files. Shame Elements couldn't just offer to skip a file it didn't like instead of self-cancelling the whole import operation. cost me many hours of time. I'd call this a critical bug in the program error handling. I am amazed that a program this old, that's gone through as many revisions as the elements organizer has a bug in th error handling like this.

  • Increasing number of photos on homepage

    Hi there,
    I was wondering if there was anyway to increase the number of photos I can publish on my .Mac homepage. When I select an album in iPhoto, I get an error message that says the maximum is 48. Any ideas? Oh, I should also mention that I've published photos on Shutterfly in the past, but I find them to be too small; I would like to stick to .Mac if possible. Thanks!

    Hi americanlass,
    Try uploading the manual way and see if you can get more photos in your Album/slideshow.
    You can bypass iPhoto altogether until the situation is resolved. You can manually upload your album to your iDisk.
    Within iPhoto, share/export your album. Choose how you want them named, export size should be 800 x 600.
    You can choose to export to a folder on the desktop, OR you can navigate to your iDisk/Pictures folder (by clicking on your iDisk in the left column of the Export window, then highlighting the Pictures folder...wait till the files show up.
    Now click the button on the bottom left for "new folder" name the folder to the name of your slideshow. Now click "ok"
    Wait till all your files are uploaded to your idisk Pictures folder.
    If you exported to the desktop, then open up your iDisk folder (mount your iDisk), navigate to the Pictures folder and drag your folder of exported photos into the Pictures folder.
    Go to your .Mac homepage.
    Go to "create a page" and choose the album template you want.
    In the next window your Pictures folder will open up. Highlight the folder you just uploaded, and click the "choose" button
    Now you can finish your editing, titles, etc. and you are good to go.

  • Can Aperture Read the camera's sequential number metedata when naming files

    Before I started using Aperture I would use this naming convention in Bridge to batch rename files and It works great because it avoids duplicate file names and the files are in sequential order
    my last name(Blake)YYYYMMDDfour digit NON RESETTING sequential number, generated by my Nikon D2X. I don't have any duplicate file names unless I shoot more that 9999 images in one day.
    Has anybody found the option to use the camera's generated sequence number in Aperture's file naming scheme. I sure can't. I know that you can set a four digit sequence but that sequence doesn't start where the sequence leaves off in the previous import.
    Thanks
    John
    G4 Powerbook   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    I have two workarounds
    1. Rename the files in bridge after like I have always done and then import the folder as an Aperture project without changing the file names. I use photo mechanic to download the files from the card.
    2. Go to the library smart folders to see what was the last project I imported and check the four digit sequence before the file name extension. Set the sequential counter in Aperture to start at the next sequential number where the last file left off.
    I have to use the four digit sequence instead of using the date and Time sequence. It is very convenient for my clients to give me the four digit sequence when telling me what images they want prints from,etc. Avoids any confusion.
    I did request this feature of using the camera's generated file name in Apple's feedback link for future inhancements.
    thanks for your responses

  • Limit on the number of photos?

    Is there a limit on the number of photos the ATV2 can show from our iPhoto library? I have over 32,000 photos in my library and when I try to see them, only 19,998 show up. I'm missing my last 4 years of photos (19,998 doesn't seem like a coincidence to me).
    I can see all albums and events (when I'm using those menus) but they are not in reverse chronological order so the most recent albums and events are at the end of the looooong list (I have more than 750 events in my iPhoto library). This is not practical at all.
    And of course, it's taking a looooong time just for the events and albums to show up on the screen. My network is all Apple 802.11n stuff so it should not be the bottleneck. Any ideas?

    The limit is based on the 8GB internal storage on the ATV2. I confirmed this with Express Lane support today. ATV2 will try to load your entire library but will stop when it gets to the limit and does not provide any messages stating that the limit has been reached. This means that you will get roughly the first 20,000 of your library, starting with the most recent.
    The work around is to select which albums or folders from iPhoto that are to be synced, much like you would do for an iPod or iPhone that can't fit your whole music or photo library. This selection process is done in iPhoto's Sharing preferences where you select Share my photos and choose the second option to Share selected albums. Note that the list will contain iPhoto folders as well as albums.
    Once you reach the 8GB limit, you may also have a problem playing the video files in your iPhoto library that appear to have been synced, as the full videos are not loaded until they are selected for playing. Once that is tried, ATV2 will likely crash as the 8GB limit is exceeded. No harm is done to your library that is safe.
    This whole process is not well supervised by the ATV2 system as it keeps the user in the dark.

  • Maximum number of photos allowed in an i photo6 slide show???

    What is the maximum number of photos allowed in an i photo 6 slide show???
    In a previous version, it was 99, I believe. I can't find the answer in any documentation.
    g-5   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    photo princess:
    There never was a limit to the number of slides in an iPhoto slideshow. That 99 limit was for slideshow created in iDVD from imported stills. iDVD can not have more than 99 slides in any one slideshow that's created entirely in iDVD but at 99 the chapter number of the next slide (each slide is considered a chapter) reverts back to 1. It's a DVD standard issue, not an iDVD thing.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

  • Maximum number of photos in dvd slideshow - what's my best option?

    I have made just one slideshow dvd - it contained 3 different slideshows, one of 90 photos, one of 120, one of 146 photos.
    Now I am doing a slideshow for the celebration of life for a friend's late husband.
    My problem: she has given me about 500 (maybe more) photos. I've scanned over 300 and have lots to go.
    I want this to be just one slideshow so that my friend can have it playing (and looping) throughout the gathering).
    Before I proceed with this huge project: HOW BIG is too big for a slideshow? I was going to do one iPhoto slideshow and then export it to iDVD. But I'm starting to wonder if this is unmanageable.
    PLEASE help. What is my best course of action? How many photos can I cram into a slideshow? (I'll be adding music as I did on my previous project.)

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If you create the slideshow in iPHoto there is no limit on the number of photos. However, there is a bug with the latest iPhoto regarding adding music to slideshows and exporting as Quicktime or directly to iDVD. There are a couple of workarounds for that.
    1 - create the slideshow w/o music, add it to an iDVD slideshow (like you would a photo)
    Click to view full size
    and add the music in iDVD.
    2 - create the slideshow w/o music, export as a QT movie, 640 x 480. Join the music together into one new audio file with Garageband or the free Audacity, and join the two with Quicktime Pro.
    You can have more than 99 photos in an iDVD slideshow but will get a pause/hesitation at slide 100, 198, and every 99 slides thereafter. That's because iDVD has to set the chapter number of slide 100 back to 1 (part of DVD international standards). If burned to good media at 4x or less you can minimize the effect although it depends a lot on the DVD player. Some handle it better than others.
    FWIW I've found that I get better screen image quality when creating the slideshow in iDVD. The downside is that there's no Ken Burns effect and you can only have one transition type for the slideshow.
    If you have QT Pro and want to go the join route post back and I'll describe the workflow.

  • Maximum number of photos in a book?

    Well, I've got this 100-page book all set to go, but the pdf file shows the last 25-30 pages as being blank. I've shuffled pages around and gotten different numbers of blank pages, so I'm beginning to think that there may be a limit to the number of photos that can be stuffed into a book. I've got 567 photos in the book layout right now. Is that too many? Has anyone had any experience with books having this many photos before?

    Hi!
    Thanks for the quick reply. The book is double-sided (100 pages), Picture Book theme. And after much playing around, my conclusion is the same as yours -- there seems to be no limit to the number of photos, only to the number of pages. I've actually increased the number of photos in my book to 587, and they all appear in the generated pdf file.
    The initial problem -- blank pages -- seems to have been related to the resolution settings in the iPhoto prefs file. Reducing those numbers resulted in all pages being properly printed. Here's the text of my reply to a reply to another question I posted concerning those blank pages...
    I'm using the Picture Book theme. And after much tinkering, I think I've found the problem -- and the solution.
    Remembering posts from some time ago discussing ways to improve the quality of the printed photos -- including tweaking the iphoto prefs file -- I used the Property List Editor app to check my book settings (BookTargetDPI-BookTargetMediumIMageDPI-BookTargetSmallImageDPI). The three items were all set to 300. I reduced them to 250 each, then tried 'ordering' the book again. Lo, and behold, there were now 20 fewer blank pages. So I set about playing with different combinations of settings, trying to find the optimum resolutions that would print all 100 pages. I've ended up with something like 250-220-220.
    Now I have no idea what these settings actually control, or what the optimum settings would be for this or any other book project, but clearly, they affect how many pages are accepted for printing. While the 300-300-300 settings worked for my last book, that book was only 20 pages. For this current book, those numbers are too high.
    I looked at many of the other posts in this forum and wonder if those having trouble with blank pages haven't also played with these settings. I tried moving the iPhoto prefs file out of the Library/Preferences folder in order to force iPhoto to create a new file with default settings, and discovered that 150-150-300 seem to be Apple's preferred settings. But the very first book I ordered from Apple, which used those settings, was a bit disappointing in terms of resolution. Hence my boosting of these numbers for the second book.
    The problem of blank pages could also have something to do with file size. At the higher resolutions, the generated pdf file tipped the scales at a beefy 193 MB, but at the lower resolutions, the pdf file is a relatively svelte 133 MB. There might be some limitation built into iPhoto to prevent people from trying to send1 GB pdf files to Apple's printers.
    In my case at least, the problem is NOT related to the number of photos I'm using. After playing with the numbers, I actually went back and added a dozen more photos, pushing the total to 587 across 100 pages. And with the new resolutions, all photos on all pages print fine.
    I wish I knew what all of this meant and how it could be used to predict iPhoto's book creation behavior, but at least I'll be able to print this book now.
    Thanks for your quick reply! Hope my experiences help someone else with similar problems.

  • Showing the number of photos

    I just upgraded to iPhoto 09, running under OX 10.5.6, 2.4 gHZ Intel Duo Core, 4 GB memory.
    In the iPhoto window, on the left hand is a list column. Under Library are Events, Photos, Faces, etc. Under Album, I have United States, etc. How can I get iPhoto to show the number of photos next to each of these entries? They were there before the program crashed. They are not there now after I rebuilt and trashed the preference file.
    Thanks. Tom

    iPhoto menu ==> preferences ==> general -- check "show item count"
