People recognition in Bridge?

Is there a way to get the people recognition in Photoshop CS6's Bridge like there is in Photoshop Elements 10's Organizer? If not, is there a way to get Bridge to recognize the people tags from Organizer?

Hi, cihurst!
Bridge doesn't currently have a way to recognize people, like Photoshop Elements Organizer, but the keywords should certainly be recognized! When you're in Bridge, check out the Keywords Panel (Window > Keywords Panel). It should contain the tags that you set in Organizer.

Automatic people recognition in Elements Organizer

Hi everyone,
Because I have limited online disk space, I've been using Elements Organizer for quite some time to catalogue all my offline images. What I do is to burn all my images to DVD's and then import these images into Organizer as offline media with the “Generate previews” option. This way I can quickly find out on which DVD a particular image is kept. This way I save on disk space on my computer.
Now I would like to get some advice and comments from you guys on using Organizer this way. I get the impression that the automatic people recognition does not work with offline media. Is this a correct assumption? How do you best optimize use of disk space when you have over 10000 images. My current version of Photoshop Elements is version 12.
Your comments and advice is much appreciated. Thanks!
Regards,
Dave

Problems with People Recognition in PSE 9 that were not in PSE 8.

Hello, I recently downloaded PSE 9 Trial Version and imported a PSE 8 Backup into PSE 9. It took quiet some time but it eventually converted the library to suit PSE 9. I have noticed a couple of small things that I find very irritating and that seem to be a step backwards. Firstly, when I am in people recognition mode, not all of the names auto complete when I type in the first 3 or 4 letters of the name like they used to in PSE 8, even though the people are in my people list. This might not seem like a huge problem, but I have 100's of people in my catalog and if I do not spell the name exactly as I typed it before, I will create a second instance of the same person. Secondly, when a bunch of faces come up in the "Name these people" Screen, I used to be able to hold down Shift or Ctrl key and select multiple people to name at once, PSE 9 wont let me do this, I have to name them one by one, even if they are the same person. I'm sure this is just a small issue that Adobe will get around to, but it is a huge turn off from PSE 9.

So it sounds like PsE is installed correctly if new people tags work correctly.
I have seen another issue that might be related. You can manually create a people tag by adding it to the people category. As long as this tag exist in the 'root' people category, people recognition seems to work correctly. You can also have people recognition create a tag during the people recognition process. These are two different tag types if you look inside the database. And they behave differently. For example, you can merge tags which have been manually created whereas this functionaliy is not possible for tags created through people recongition. (By the way, I would not recommend merging the manual tags because you will run into issues when PsE finds a face on a merged and deleted tag).
Once a face has been tagged to a manual people tag, the tag can be moved into a sub-category.
I don't know if tags created in PsE 8 are considered to be manual or not in PsE 9 but this may explain some things
Have you tried to move the people tags to the root people category and see if the functionaly works as expected?
I can't help you beyond this -- you have exhausted my people recognition skills.

Can the people recognition function in PSE 9 be configured to look for a specific person?

HI All:
I have over 100k photos in my library. I'd like to have PSE 9 search through these images and identify only my family members. For instance, I would like PSE 9 to serach for images of only my daughter and provide a tag for each image that contains her picture. With this many photos it just takes too long to use the people recognition function because I must go through every person (face) that it identifies rather than just my daughter's. So, is there a way in PSE 9 to restrict the photo recognition feature to search for only one person/face?
Thanks, Jeff

I have the same need. We have numerous app vendors that change their certificate that I need to deploy to 2500 PC's. We were using the registry via MS JVM to import these certificates. That is no longer an option with 2003 Server and Vista not supporting MS JVM. I have tried the Keytool as a login script process but it keeps asking for a password. Doubt we would ever be able to locate anyone who would know what it was. So far I have found the system deployment setup but am having problems actually getting it to work. Here is what I have so far for the deployment.config:
deployment.system.config=file\:/M\:/Winstall/Utils/Javacert/deployment.properties
deployment.system.config.mandatory=false
The deployment.properties has:
deployment.system.security.trusted.certs=file\:/M\:/Winstall/Utils/Javacert/Trusted.certs
The Trusted.certs file ahs all the certificates we support from a network application point of view. Any help would be appreciated.

People Recognition Doesn't work in 11

My people recognition tells me there are no people or the people are labeled, even though that is incorrect.

Same issue. Renamed certain catalog files. repair and optimize, all to no avail.

People Recognition in PsE 8 vs PsE 9

I have 16000 photos currently in PsE's version 8 organizer. I'm thinking about moving to PsE 9 (also PrE 9). Have PsE 9's people recongition features improved? One of the previous releases of PsE would show faces from many photos and allow you to manually tag the photos. This was very optimized -- although it would not attempt to automatically recognize the faces. PsE 8 seems to only allow recongition in one photo at a time which is very slow - although it seems to actually guess on the faces for you as a head start. What has changed in PsE 9?

well , pse 9 has come up with better People Recognition this time , they have made the user interface better and speedier. Also , if you want to tag multiple faces at one time them simply select the desired images and click on face button present in the keyword panel. This will show up a dialog which will ask you to label some faces . On the basis of that it will give your suggestions too Hence making the entire process smoother.
Its surely worth a try !

Reset "ignore" in people recognition in PSE 9

Hi all,
First, as I am no native speaker: please excuse my bad English, thanks.
Does anybody know how to reset the people recognition?
Problem: I did people recognition over my whole catalog. Doing this, I told PSE to ignore some people. Now, after a while, I would like to tag these people too (and not by using the "white rectangle" manually for some thousands of photos).
If I click on people recognition now, PSE tells me, that there are no people unrecognized any more.
==> how can I get PSE 9 to "forget", which people where ignored and to suggest them all (except the ones with tag) again?
Please help without forcing me to delete all my tags already set ;-)
Thanks a lot in advance!
Mano

I would not recommend you remove the BreezeData folder or any content within this. You will loose the ability for PsE 9 to make people suggestions on the existing media in the catalog. In addition, attempting to run People Recognition on any existing media in the catalog will issue a dialog "No unabled people found in your selection" even though there are unlabled people.
The only way I have found to reset the "ignore" option is to remove the media from the catalog and then re-import it. Export the tags before you do this. You will have to confirm faces again. I would try baby steps with a small test catalog to make sure you don't loose anything before you try this on your real catalog.
It would be great if Adobe could add an option (Under the Edit menu and with the right mouse click) "Run People Analysis" on photos which would allow you to start over with people recognition on a photo. This would add the bounding boxes which were removed with the "ignore" click.
This is what I think is happening...
Once a media item is added to the catalog, a flag is set on that media item telling it that People Analysis has not been executed yet.
If Media-Analysis/Analyze Photos for People Automatically is enabled, the People Analysis will run on newly imported photos. This will identify potential people with the bounding boxes and some data which helps identify the face. This creates the data in the BreezeData folder. I think the bounding box information is also duplicated in the catalog.pse9db file -- but face identification data.
If Media-Analysis/Analyze Photos for People Automatically is not enabled, People Analysis will run when you click on the "Start People Recognition".
The people tag information is also stored in the catalog.pse9db file when you 'confirm' a face to the bounding box.
Some flag must be set in the catalog.pse9db file after People Analysis is run on a photo to tell the system that People Analysis has run. This prevents it from running ever again on that particular media item. Running Auto-Analysis will not run People Analysis as it seems these are considered to be separate tasks.
You will also run into problems if you edit a photo using photoshop elements and save it as the same file name. Again, the Organizer will not make any recommendations on faces because people analysis was run once on the photo -- even though the content may have been changed. The "Run People Analysis" option would help with this scenario as well!

People recognition error in PSE 9 Organizer

I am new to PSE and PRE. I purchased version 9, installed and began importing my photos and videos. My library has 8566 entries. At first people recognition worked fine finding photos with faces and suggesting names as I entered them. Then it read "No unlabeled people found in your selection." I thought this was great because I had everyone tagged. I noticed as I looked through my photos that not everyone is tagged. Now I get boxes asking "Who is this?" and when I click the box I no longer get a suggestion. Also if I try to run people recognition it says "No unlabled people found in your selection." I get this message even after importing new photos that were just taken. PSE Organizer recognizes the face but still says no unlabled people. How can this be? Please help.

I am also fighting the same problems. Tried the suggestion by RDNelson #13 with No Success. Not impressed with ADOBE's response so far. I have not tried the new catalog procedure yet because I do not want to get 90% finished and have it fail again. Thank you to all that have responded and I wonder how many others are reading but not joining in?
Can you tell me what is happening after you tried my suggestions. Are you still getting "No unlabled people found in your selection" when pressing the Start people recognition button?
I may have duplicated this issue. I will ask that you investigate something else. First, some background information...
Running face recognition makes an entry in the catalog. In addition it creates a file for every photo which face recognition is run on. This file is placed in the BreezeData directory under the catalog directory. I was able to duplicate the issue where the propmt "No unlabled people found in your selection" by write protecting the BreezeData directory.
Possibly, there are issues with this directory on your system. I just helped someone else who had directory permissions on the .dat files which caused other issues. Possibly there are permission problems in this directory? Or, could this directory contain too many files (NTFS volumes should allow for a very large amount of files)?
This is what I would like you to check...
1) Check to make sure the security settings are set to "Full Control" on the BreezeData directory.
a) Right click on the BreezeData directory from the Windows Explorer
b) Click on the Security tab
c) Click on the Advanced button
d) Click on the Effective Permissions tab
e) Click on "Select..."
f) Type in the user name which is currently logged in or the user name you wish to check permissions on in the box "Enter the object name to select (examples):
g) Press the "Ok" button.
f) Review the checkboxes in the "Effective permissions" list to ensure there is a checkbox next to all items in the list.
If you don't have sufficent permissions, then add full control to the desired users. You may want to verify that the catalog and all content under the catalog is set to Full Control. Make sure to exit the Organizer and restart before you try face recognition again.
2) If 1) does not indicate any problems, see if you can actually navigate to the BreezeData directory.
a) How many files are in this directory?
b) Can you open up any file?
c) Can you create a temporary file such as a word document or even a text file with Notepad?
Note that the same thing happens for media-analysis except for a file is created in the CAXMPFiles directory for every photo analyzed.
I hope this helps. I'm not sure I can help you beyond this and it would be best to contact Adobe directly to report this.

Photoshop Elements 10 hung up at Restoring people recognition 2%

Hello
I just buy Photoshop Elements 10. after install, I could not open Organizer because it is hung up at "Restoring People Recognition 2%"
Please help. Thank you

Hold down the shift button when you open Elements Organizer. Try to create a new catalog and see if it launches the organizer. If it does go to "edit" menu then preferences.Under preferences you have an option to select media-analysis, click it and uncheck the option for "analyze photos for people automatically". Click OK the close the organizer. Hold down the shift key again to launch the catalog manager then select the original catalog that could not be opened then click open. Hopefully you can open organizer now.

Photoshop Elements 8 People Recognition

Hello All,
Photoshop Elements 8 People Recognition keeps saying "Congratulations... you have tagged all photos". This is would be nice if it actually done that.
How do I re-trigger the People Recognition to re-analyze the all the photos to recognize all the faces again
Thank you.

I think the face recognition works best when the square just encompasses the face. So if you click Add Missing Person, you may need to resize the square to fit the face.
It seems that the resizing doesn't always work (clicking and dragging the corners doesn't always "grab" the edges of the box, it takes a few tries, so it's a hassle),
This is a known bug I've reported to Adobe.
In the Find > Find People For Tagging command, when you select Add Missing Person, you usually can’t resize the selection box by grabbing the lower-right or lower-center handles, which are the handles that most right-handed people are likely to use. If you move the mouse very quickly so that it is over the photo before the black text box appears, you can usually resize with those handles. But you have to be very quick -- otherwise, the focus gets shifted to the black text box where you enter the name. As a more reliable workaround, always drag one of the upper selection handles instead.
Hard to believe that such a basic bug in a brand new feature made it out.

Strange behavour of "People Recognition"

I've just installed Elements, and was looking forward to test the face recongnition. After install I marked some picures, pressed the "People Recognition" and it analyzed the images. Everything worked out fine.
Now, a few hours later", when mark some pictures and choose this feature it start the "Analysis". When the progressbar reach 100% it dissapears, and .. well thats it. Nothing more happens.
Anyone know whats going on, or how this can be fixed?

... you select some thumbnails and do Find > Find Faces For Tagging.
The progress bar appears, goes to 100%, and then progress bar
disappears. But the Organizer keeps running (it doesn't crash)?
Yes, this is correct. The same thing happens when I select only one photo. Organizer do not crash.
I should mention that "Generating thumbnails" is running in the background.

Start up Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 - why does it stall at "restoring people recognition data" 42%

I just downloaded and installed Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 & Adobe Premiere Elements 11 (Windows,English). When it starts up it stalls at the dialogue box "restoring people recognition data" 42%.
I have to close the program then the whole thing happens again.
Pretty frustrating for $150............... to upgrade from Elements 8

This seens to be a problem of Media Analysis which generally arises if there are too many/too large assets in your catalog.
Just try the following steps:-
1. Go to Edit->Preferences->Media Analysis
2 Go to People Recognition options
3. Uncheck the "Analyse Photo for People recognition".
4. Press "OK"

Restoring People Recognition Data

I downloaded elements 11 as an upgrade from elements 8. The download went fine but now I am frozen on "Restoring People Recoginition". My old version of Elements 8 is still activated. Could this be the Problem?

PSE8 should not be the problem. Try temporarily turning off auto-analysis.
Go to Edit >> Preferences >> Media Analysis
Uncheck all the boxes and click OK
If the Organizer won’t budge try getting to the prefs via the Editor:
Edit >> Preferences >>Organize & Share
You can re-start people recognition at any time by clicking the Add People icon at the bottom of the organizer and then let the indexing run again.

How do I make People Recognition program accept corrected names?

This should be very easy but I have forgotten how to get PE to use the correct version of names in People Recognition.
I hit a few wrong (lower-case) keys iand those first spelling versions continue to auto-fill even when versions that start with capital letters are entered..
Please point me to what must be a simple corrective procedure.
Thanks

You should be able to right-click on the tag in the right hand panel and choose to edit the tag. In the tag properties dialog change the name and click OK.

People Recognition - stops working

Hi,
I have this problem with PSE8 bugging me. I have been dealing with support but no success to date. The People Recognition started working perfectly for me. You select a group of photos - start the recognitions & it would find for example 30 photos of me & suggest they are me - you just accept that whole screen then it gives another screen of me or someone else.
However after tagging for a while it stopped recognising me (& my wife & son, etc). Seems that once a person is 'auto recognised' about 100-200 times then it stops. So now any photos of me when I enter the People Recognition it finds the face OK but does not recognise it as me. So I therefore have to type in my name on every photo.
Now if those first tags of me were called say "Adam". If I now recognise some of the new ones as "AdamF" then it merely goes on auto recognising in batches again under this new tag for another 100 or so photos. Problem then is no easy way to combine them + it should just work without having to do this.
Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas?
Things I have tried.
* New install on different PC - same issue
* New catalog on same PC - same issue
Thanks,
Adam..

Yeh Adobe don't beleive me either - they have stopped replying to my job on the issue - with no resolution or acceptance of the problem.
The other unfortunate thing is that the only possible work around don't work . We thought by giving a person a new name "Adam 2" would mean you could quickly tag another 200 or so (which you can) & then combine the tags. This is where to problem lies though. When you move the photos from Adam 2 into Adam all it does is tag the 'photo' with Adam not the face. So when you then delete 'Adam 2' you end up with all the photos of Adam in the Adam folder OK - but these new ones are not tagged by the face - just photo tagged (if that makes sense).
So no solution, no patch & no workaround at all possible (other than name them 1 by 1 which is not what I spent my $$$ on).
Disappointing that this was the 'big sell' for PSE8 (in my view) & it is a big flop for anyone with more than a few hundred photos in total.
