Organizer 12

I have a problem to assign a picture to an album (tag failure). The program was updated from PSE 11 to PSE 12 all catalogs were converted.
System: Win7 64bit, Ram 6G, Processor Intel Core 2 Quad Cpu q 6600 2,4 ghz.

Same problem in that recent thread:

CD imported to wrong folder organization Album/Artist instead of Artist/Alb

I imported (ripped) a CD and the folder convention iTunes created in my music library was like this:
AlbumName/ArtistName
instead of
ArtistName/AlbumName
How could this happen. I have ripped hundreds of CD's and this is the first time it has happened. I am letting iTuned organize my files.
Any clues?
Thanks!

Actually I know exactlty what bae77345 is referring to, because I am running into the same problem. Thus my search in the forums.
Usually Ive had no problem in importing a song into iTunes, and changing the song IN iTunes to read as follows.
Name of Song: DAYS `EUREKA OPENING MIX`
Artist: Anime
Album : Eureka seveN OST 1
Album artist: FLOW
And the Windown path would look like this
C:\Documents and Settings\Varxtis\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\Anime\Eureka seveN OST 1\1-01 DAYS `EUREKA OPENING MIX`.mp3
Notice It goes Artist>Album>Song Title
Album Artist would not even be part of the path, which is exactly what I want.
but now it shows
C:\Documents and Settings\Varxtis\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\FLOW\Eureka seveN OST 1\1-01 DAYS `EUREKA OPENING MIX`.mp3
Which goes AlbumArtist>Album>Song Title. it doesn't even include the artist as part of the path. How annoying.
It makes a HUGE difference to me because I need everything in "iTunes Music" library in windows to be pathed as Artist>Album: Song Title. I use a different MP3 Player so, it's almost impossible to have half one way (those that have albumartist) and half another (those that don't) BTW, Sorry apple. . .no Offense. I've had and loved an iPod. . . but it died and I got this as a gift.
I never changed any settings, and quite honestly it's been about a month since I had to update my MP3 player music (thus noticing the problem). So, there HAS to be a reason for it to change. And more importantly, a way to change it back.

My picture folder is missing from my laptop and I am having trouble with how to organize my pictures in folders

I have been trying to learn how to use my MacBook Pro better so I can get my photos on it. I do not like iPhoto at all because it was not letting me organize my photos the way I always did in Windows Explorer. I am now trying to use Lightroom and I have run into some issues with how my photos are showing up.
1. Whenever I removed my photos from iPhoto so I could start over, my Picture file in Finder disappeared. I do not believe I deleted it but somehow I must have. I was trying to just delete my pictures from Imgages under All My Files. I thought that All My Files was duplicating data and I don't want duplicate pictures on my computer. However, now I am just wondering if All My Files is just a link to my actual files. What is the purpose of that?
2. I imported one photo card to try to work with it and made a new Pictures folder on my desktop and arranged it using some folders and sub-folders I created.
3. I then uploaded these through lightroom.
4. Somehow, all of my photos were showing up in images, which is not where I wanted them and I deleted the duplicates.
5. Now many of my folders in the Picture file I created on the desktop are empty with no photos
6. I tried to restore my pictures from the trash to Images under All My Files and it keeps putting them into documents
7. I have been trying to learn how to use this computer but it seems so different from what I was always used to with Explorer. This should not be that complex but I search and search on the web and can't seem to find exactly what I need to help me

iMessage and FaceTime went down yesterday for some people. Mine is still down. My iMessage is saying the same thing about being activated. Sounds like you are still down too. Ignore the status page that says everything is fine - it lies.

How can we assign Items from One Organization to a different Organization.

Team,
1. We have a requirement to load all the items from Organization A to Organization B. Both are in different Operating Unit.
Is there any API available to do this?
Thanks
-Karthik

As long as you have the same master org in the 2 operating units, all you have to do is
INSERT INTO mtl_system_items_interface
            (organization_code, segment1, transaction_type, set_process_id, process_flag)
   (SELECT '&new_Org', msi.segment1, 'CREATE', 100, 1
      FROM mtl_system_items_b msi
     WHERE organization_id = &old)And run the Import Items request.
Hope this helps,

How do I use multiple librarys to organize my projects

Is there a way to use multiple libraries to organize my projects. I don't like having all my projects in one library. I'd like separate libraries for Family_Movies, BirthdaysandHolidays, Vacations, etc...
Thanks.

You can create multiple folders in your Project Library. I have a folder for each year. Then within the year, if I make several videos on one subject (say a trip to Europe) I will create sub folders within the year.
There is no limitation on what you name your Folders, so you could name them Family Movies, Vacations, Birthdays, etc.
When you are in the Project Library View, you can click FILE/NEW FOLDER. For a subfolder, click on the parent folder and then click New Folder.

How do I update my old Organizer catalog for a new version of the program?

When you install a new versiobn of the program and start the Organizer, it will usually give you a pop-up asking if you want to convert the catalog from a previous version. However, if that tool doesn't automatically launch, contributor Barb O offers this manual solution:
Go to File menu Catalog command and you will see a button for Convert. Click that convert button to start the catalog conversion process manually.
Note that IF you have more than one catalog, each one converts separately.
BEFORE you start your new program, go to your old Organizer's catalog and select:
-- Catalog > Repair
-- File > Reconnect > All Missing Files
-- Catalog > Repair (again)
The logic here is that a "cleaned up" prior version catalog is less likely to have problems during the upgrade process.

I recommend you ask that in the PSE forum. I'm sure there is some import/ export hocuspocus involved...

Family Sharing not showing Organizer's Purchases for other family members

I have enabled Family Sharing on my device as the Organizer and added my wife's Apple ID to my list of family members. She has accepted the invitation on her end and we both see each other in the Family Sharing list within Settings->iCloud->Family Sharing. If I go to the App Store (remember, I'm the organizer), and I choose Updates->Purchased->Family Purchases (choosing my wife's Apple ID) I can see all the apps she's purchased. It won't work the other way around, though. If she goes to the App Store and tries to view my purchases, she gets a blank screen.
I have already checked to see if I'm hiding purchases, I'm not. In Settings->iCloud->Family Sharing->Me, I have Share My Purchases enabled. I've signed in and out of iCloud, and she's done the same. I've confirmed my Apple ID, and she's done the same. We can't figure it out. Why in the world is she a part of the Family Sharing group, but we can't get it so she can view my purchased apps?

I have the same issue. I can see my wife's purchases but on her phone, it says that I have no purchases. I also tried If you don't see your family's shared content - Apple Support and disabling family sharing and re-inviting her. I would also like to know how to fix this.

Creative Mediasource Organizer Losing Year T

I use Windows XP, Creative Mediasource Organizer version 3.30.35 and my player is a Zen MicroPhoto 8G. I have over 4000 MP3 files organized with id tags in Creative Mediasource Organizer. These are almost exclusivly?MP3 files that I recorded myself. Of the 4000 files?there are only a handful, just?one album that could possibly find tag information?to pull from the internet. Yesterday,?more than?200 of my mp3 files?had blank?year tags. I entered the correct year in several dozen of these so that only about 65 had blank year tags. Then I closed the software and turned of my computer. Today I opened Creative Mediasource Organizer to work on filling in those blank year tags. There were over 400 blank year tags today. What is happening? I have PC Music Library open. I select a single file, right click, click properties, click tag information, enter the year in the year field, click OK. Then I right click and select "update tag" click "yes" to confirm that I want the changes to apply to the file itself and not just to the PC Media Library. Please, someone help me understand why?the number of blank year tags is growing instead of shrinking? What can I do to retain the information I enter in these tags?

YESTERDAY:?Monday March 2, 2007:?I edited my media library from within Creative MediaSource so that there are no files without a valid year in the year tag. For?each MP3 file the other standard tags also contain meaningful data. These are?title, artist, album and?genre,?but not track. I don't see any practical way to use the track field for some of these files, so not all of them have a track number. The files I want in my media library are all the MP3 and WMA files within C:/MP3 and it's subfolders. The properties of C:/MP3 as viewed from "My Computer" are 3922 files and 249 folders. About a dozen are WMA files and one is a text file. All the others are MP3 files. The problem is that?there are quite a number of duplicate entries. And the Media Library is reporting several hundred more files within C:/MP3?than "My Computer" is reporting there.
I used "Tools/Settings/PC Media Library/ Delete invalid entries" but it did NOT remove the duplicate entries. Exiting the program and opening it again did not correct the count either. So I selected ALL the files, right clicked, and selected "update tags." I clicked YES to update the tag data from the media library to the files. When that operation was completed, I deleted all the files from the library but not from the computer. And?now I am?importing all the files within C:/MP3?back into the library. It says "now transferring 859 of 3920 files." This is good! 3920 is very close to 3922 minus the one text file. I want to see if, when this transfer is finished, I will have the correct number of MP3 files in my media library, and I want to see if the tag data, including the year data, remains?intact after this transfer. The transfer is complete. I do have 3920 files in my media library now and the data in the id tags appears to be intact. Hopefully, this will still be the case when I open the software tomorrow. THE NEXT DAY:?Tuesday, March 3, 2007: Grrr! I now have 3950 files in my media library where it should be only 3920. I did not add anything ?or make any edits. Exactly 30 of these entries?have blank year fields. I'm thinking that Creative MediaSource is NOT?loosing the data in year tags as I first thought, rather it's ADDING entries that are identical to existing entries except that the year fields in the added entries are empty. I think that if I enter the correct year data, I will end up with 30 entries that are truly exact duplicates. I don't see a pattern or clue to tell me why these 30 and not the others ... they have different artists, different albums, genres and the data in the missing year fields was not all the same. In the track fields, a few are blank, but most of them have data. "Tools/Settings/PC Music Library/Clean up now" did not elimiinate these 30 extra entries. Looking at the properties of C:/MP3 from "My Computer" still shows 3922 files (one is a text file) ... From my experiments yesterday, I am pretty sure that I can delete these 30 extra entries and be left with valid entries for all my files. This is frustrating. I'm hoping that these observations will be helpful to a programmer working on the next version of Creative MediaSource. I would send these comments directly to them, but they don't seem to provide a way for me to do that.

Error while creating organization in OIM 11.1.1.5.6

Hi all,
I am seeing the below mentioned issue while creating a new organization in OIM.
oracle.adf.controller.ControllerException: ADFC-10001: cannot instantiate class 'oracle.iam.consoles.orgmgmt.tf.createorg.OrganizationCreateBean'
This appears as soon as I click on the “create organization” link on OIM UI.
I am also attaching the oim_server1.out for your reference.
There has been no change in the environment except that I have applied a patch BP06 last week.
This patch was applied successfully as seen in the logs.
I am not sure if this issues comes due to the patch application.
If anyone has faced a similar issue please let me know .
Any inputs are deeply appreciated.

Error when creating a new Organization in Deployment Manager

I am trying to create a new Organization to an existing CRM environment and I keep getting the error below. The user deploying the new Organization has full control on all the security groups and Admin rights on the servers that Host SQL and CRM
application. The CRM environment is 2011 on Premise that has been setup for IFD.
We currently have 2 other organizations that are already in the environment, so the new org would be a third. I am more than glad to provide any firther information that I have to anyone that can help us resolve this issue. I also have a log file that I
saved after the failed creation attempt. I can provide the contents of the log file to anyoen who can help. Its too long to add here.
The section of the log file that shows the error is just above the screen shot. It looks like a deletion error. My queston is why is there an attempt at deleting anything if all I am trying to do is create a new Organization. This is not an import or
upgrade.

How to switch Organizer catalog from one hard drive to another?

As far as a little background, i have just finished two high definition projects in Premiere Elements, the last one being 73 projects combined into 6 blu rays. It had completely filled up my 1TB hard drive, so i have purchased an additional 2TB internal hard drive, in hopes of being able to switch all my photoshop to the larger internal hard drive. I am also archiving the old stuff as i finish each project to an external hard drive to free up space.
But i am PETRIFIED at the possibility of trying to move my Elements Catalog because of all the stories i have heard about having the majority of the photos needed to 'reconnect' after switching it to an external hard drive and I assume the same thing will happen to me if i move it to another internal hard drive???????   I have had several computer smart gentleman who have often helped me out when i had a problem and one refused to even venture how to successfully move the catalog and other guy's suggestion is to backup the entire Catalog and then restore it on the new drive.   Steve Grisetti said this morning on his webpage that i should cut and paste the file from one drive to the other but not quite sure how easy that is going to be, because when i have searched out the "move' option, it does not allow me to do anything there. Could that be because i have files that need to be 'reconnected' first before i could accomplish that 'move.'    Steve suggested i come over to this Forum to get some opinions, which is what i have done. That sounds like being more complicated than just cutting and pasting one folder with 16,000 photos. What is the safest way to accomplish this without losing anything, and avoiding the need to 'reconnect' 16,000 files which i am not looking forward to.
So that is my first and foremost question about the Elements Organizer, but i do have some other related problems with the 'reconnect' problem, some of which i have figured out, but not completely. After finally completing these two big projects, my next goal was to clean up my files, get things organized better, and i seem to be finding more and more problems to address. The list of problems decreases with each project but i am still able to find new ones. I am not a computer whiz, and probably shouldn't be trying to accomplish what i am doing with the basic Photoshop programs, something i know the majority of you would be using other more advanced Photoshop programs and much more easily, but i am starting to get this program down, and i don't need more challenges right now.
So i have 3 additional concerns and questions if anyone can help me out to prevent future problems with the next high definition project for Premiere Elements to burn onto blu rays.
1. Because i ran out of space totally on my old internal hard drive, i set up a temporary file on the new drive for the blu ray projects, and I was able to finish the remaining mpeg2s for the final 2 blu rays from Premiere Elements. But when i finished, i started to clean up the files, and realized that the catalog was not recognizing any of the mpeg2 files that i had used to assemble the first 4 blu rays, which was the time i set up the new file on the new internal hard drive, and had copied and pasted my blu ray files. It all seemed to go well, and i was able to finish the final 20 something projects and 2 final mpeg2s for the final blu rays which i prepared and burned on Sony DVD Architect. . But when i went back and was looking at the final mpeg2 files for the previous 4 blu rays, they all needed to be 'reconnected', and i assume it was because the last 2 were on a different drive. And after some effort, i was able to reconnect everything i think successfully. And i am assuming that this will not continue to be a problem if i can get the entire Catalog on the same hard drive. So write that one off to experience.
2. But i hadn't taken the time before doing the blu ray project to label my pictures completely, so the next project i started was renaming the filenames, which quickly presented a new problem, and that made for more 'reconnect' problems again for every picture that i renamed that was used in any of the Premiere Elements Project, so i was back to where i started but even worse off; however, the good news is that my photos were the best organized they ever have been. So all the mpeg2's on the catalog once again asked for 'reconnect' and came to the conclusion that it must mean any name change in the 'filename' also makes it not recognizable. With my first big Premiere Elements project which ended up with 4 blu rays, i made the very big mistake of organizing and moving files in windows, and that is problem #3. So i have come to the conclusion that it doesn't matter, but lots of effort is not obtainable, but i guess i am wondering if it was really worth saving in working condition anyway?? The good news is that the individual photos are fine for the most part, but it is all the mpeg2 files that i combined the original photos into 73 projects, making a mpeg2 of each, then combining about 10-15 of the mpeg2s together and adding music to it, and forming the final mpeg2 which is what i then prepared to burn to blu ray in Sony Architect Studio. The finished product is still present in the Sony Architect software, and i even burned a copy of them again to make sure that was possible, So my gut feeling is just to delete all the mpeg2 files in my organizer, and forget they were ever there! Does that make sense?????    I am not sure that i would ever use them again anyway, but what i am asking is obviously that something as simple as change in the filename screws up the catalog once again????? Yes, i have learned my lesson, and they will all be finalized with the filename ever before i start the next project. Just like with the first project, i learned to stay out of windows all together, and now i only use albums which i found no problems using at all.
3. Last problem is the oldest one, but one i still cannot solve. It was from the first blu ray project when i was doing stupid things like moving folders, and photos from one folder to another to make it better organized. And that was super-organized, and there was absolutely no need to change filenames!!!!! I have two separate problems. Some of the 'reconnects' do not have a picture but the gray square and the ?. I have been able to find most of the files that i had 'displaced' and have recovered them, and knew where they were, and were able to change file names, and it looks like they are back in the catalog. There was also a big file of photos that i found in a file that was the original download file for a given date which is how i NOW download my photos into Photoshop in the first place. But i have not been able to reconnect any of them successfully. They are there and i have renamed them, but the catalog still does not recongize them as being in the Catalog. The other group are photos where the picture shows in the catalog, but there is a ? to reconnect, but i cannot find the photos anywhere. These are of a trip of a once in a life time variety, so i have refused to just press delete, and i thought i had perhaps somehow deleted them all, but i have either found them in another file or the photo is present but i can't rename, i can't reconnect, and for all practical purposes they don't seem to be there. Any suggestions at all? Do i have any other options other than just to delete those whole period of my trip?
I am longwinded, but i wanted to try and give enough background information. The problem seems simple, but i just want to confirm the problems i have run into are for the reason i think they are, and any help on how to successfully move the catalog to the second internal hard drive will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any comments and or suggestions.
Ron

Thanks for your suggestions, i knew i had overdone it when i wrote the entire story. Just a couple direct questions based on your response!!
Just a couple of questions, i am assuming all the reconnection problems have to be taken care of either by connecting or deleting before the catalog can be moved. Correct?
The reconnect problems i have were not renamed outside of Photoshop, and the renaming does not seem to be an issue except for mpeg2s that are in the catalog that were used to generate the blu rays but i think it was me screwing things up when i didn't know better and was moving folders and photos in folders (Window type) .   Since the blu rays are in the Sony software complete and ready to reburn easily, i assume it would be okay to delete all those that are in the catalog, that need to be reconnected for whatever reason. Plus the individual photos of most of them are just fine. I am talking 376 'reconnect problems' counting all those mpeg2 files which are at least the majority of the 376. Probably would be nice to have, but is there any reason i have to keep them since the photos are okay and the blu rays are burned and still in the Sony Architect program intact?
What i don't understand is the important photos that are worth trying to save seem to be in the proper folder, which is what is stated in properties, but the photo is in the catalog, but with the ? and cannot do anything with it at all, without just going to reconnection, and when i try to identify the folder, it says it is empty, which those are NOT.   If it takes 'forever', then albeit, at least for these few pictures. I really don't want to delete those!
And is it possible to do what my computer tech is telling me that it will all transfer accurately and completely if we backup the entire catalog and then restore it to the new drive?. It seems like after i complete the reconnects one way or another, it might be an easier process that can be completed totally within Element?    Since the catalog is on c drive, i guess i can't do what you suggested buy why?
I kept to those tips you gave me. It seems like an impossibility to save these pictures, but these were from my very first efforts with Premiere Elements and blu rays. Other than the renaming the changing and affecting the Premiere Elements projects in the second one, i have no other problems, and have no recconect problems. So i guess i am moving in the right direction. I just don't need to keep finding ways to make more problems for myself.

Sort images in Organizer by file name?

I'm running PSE 6 on XP.
I have a group of about 80 photos that came from scanning of a hard copy photo album. I have tagged all the pictures with a unique tag. I was wondering if I could change the 'view' of these images so that they would be displayed in Organizer by their Windows filename? This would put them in the same order as the hard copy album.
Thanks for any ideas!

fwiw, with my images in the 'Folder Location' view the photos are in order by their Windows filename. That is the same order as the hardcopy album the photos came from. So I then created a PSE Album. I selected all my photos and moved them into that album. The order of the pictures was retained in the Album. That worked out great. I wanted my PSE images to be in the same order. I thought I would do it with tags. But creating an album seems to work just fine.

Bridge Vs. Photoshop Elements 5.0 Organizer

I posted something similar in the PSE forum without any feedback.
I've used PSE for a while through many versions and have many pictures in the catalog. However I really mostly use the version sets and stacks. A few notes here and there but nothing extensive regarding grouping photos, locations, etc.
I am now moving to CS3 and of course Bridge. I have demo'd it and also read what I can regarding this issue. I understand that importing catalogs into Bridge can be problematic. Although the problems seem less with PSE5??
Anyway, the catalog database is always finicky for me. I always back up the relevant folders because sometime over a span of 3 to 4 months during heavy editing sessions, with it open, it will get confused, corrupted, whatever. And I need to bring back the catalog folders. (Not a restore of all the pix, just the database folders).
It looks like the Bridge database is more robust. And I *know* it is not meant to be a replacement for the PSE organizer. I guess the question is, if I only use the stacks, version sets, and a few notes, for my use, could it be a replacement for my needs???
I just don't like that feeling of not being confident in the catalog database. I know I can send pictures from the PSE catalog to either PSE or Bridge with a few keyboard shortcuts. Although I think I read that if I change the filename or something in CS3 that the PSE catalog will not "remember it" in the version set. They could have integrated these better??? OR at least allowed a more bulletproof import feature.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Maureen,
I feel your pain! :)
Yes I have seen that option of writing info to the image metadata. However I don't think it allows you to maintain version stacks and other stacks. Those are also huge to me. I have a similar number of images in a catalog.
One thing you need to be aware of is that when you tell PSE to write that metadata to the image, it changes the system file date (last modified date) of that image. That is a huge negative to me. Although I understand you can still see the image "picture taken date" in the metadata, I use backup software that keys off of the system file date to determine what images need to be synced. I guess I could do it in one big migration....but then, I am not sure I am so confident or happy about having PSE writing data to 1,000's of my original images!!! I mean that catalog is known to get corrupted once in a while! I also like seeing the system file date in windows explorer when browsing images outside of the organizer and knowing those are the dates I put them on my system. If I write all of the tags, all the "last modified" dates will be the date the tags are written.
I really find it very perplexing that does not provide a bullet-proof upgrade path from the PSE organizer to Lightroom and/or Bridge.
How silly is it to pay the prices required to obtain CS3 or CS4, and perhaps Lightroom, and then having to go get the current version of PSE just to maintain a catalog!!
Hopefully a patch or utility will be forthcoming to allow a migration that works. The thought of having to re-stack and re-edit notes for all of my images is not even in the realm of possibility....

Adobe Photoshop Elements Organizer Stops Working due to Sony AVCHD files

Hello I installed Adobe Photoshop elements and have been having trouble with it crashing.
To solve this problem I deleted my Catalog and added a Catalog with only one folder.
This folder has photos, in JPEG and Sony .ARW format as well as AVCHD files.
I found that by removiing the AVCHD files from the catalog the SW would no longer crash.
This really is not a practical solution since my PC has many folders with many AVC files.
I am trying to see if there is a SW patch or another way to address this issue.
Thanks,

It might work but this is not a practical solution.
I have many picture folders on my pc and several of these have AVC files.
My intention was to use Photo Shop Essentials to edit my pictures. Unfortunately the "Organizer" app crashes when trying to work with my Catalog.
I have narrowed it down to only happening when there are AVC files in my folders. I have seen others have this issue and I found the issue by what they recommended.
Sadly if I am unable to get this to work with my current folders I will have to dump Essentials for another application.

Adobe Photoshop Elements 7.0 (Organizer) has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry

I have uninstalled and reinstalled and tried repairing, reorganizing the catalog but nothing seems to work.

I can start PSE but when I start the organizer I get the error once the organizer opens.
You haven't said how are you starting the PSE? There are many ways, of course, but the two main methods are:
1) clicking on the desktop icon
2) Start/Windows Logo >> All Programs > Adobe Photoshop Elements
Now I suggest use the second method and then go into Edit first. Once you are in Edit, click on the Organizer icon on the top right corner.
This should start the organizer. Hopefully this would fix it forever when you exit from the PSE because the settings are normally saved on exit.
The above is an adaptation of this thread:

Good luck.
