Photo File Names - How to Display in iMovie

I imported photos from Aperture into iMovie to make a slideshow. How can I make the File Name show up on each photo so that people can order that picture number from a wedding. I have 800 or so images to import and I need to automatically display the file name. I looked at Titles and I love the options, but I can only find out how to manually type titles. I can not manually title 800 images! Help!

that's interesting, my photos have never shown the file names :S

Photo File Names - How do I set for them to show in my iPod Touch?

I had a 1st Generation iPod Touch before, and it worked fine. The photos that I sync onto my new 2nd Generation iPod Touch no longer shows the file names. Is there any way to fix this such that it shows the file names?
Thanks in advance.

How do I call image file names from MySQL & display the image?

Hello everyone,
I have image file names (not the full URL) stored in a MySQL database. The MySQL database is part of MAMP 1.7 and I am using Dreamweaver CS3 on a Mac Book Pro.
I would like to create a catalog page using thumbnails, and PayPal buttons displayed within a table, in rows. With the image centered and the PayPal button directly underneath the image.
How do I use PHP to call the thumbnail images as an image not the file name, to be displayed in the table?
Thanks in advance.

Open the Insert Image dialog box in the normal way, and navigate to the folder that contains the images. Then copy to your clipboard the value in the URL field, and click the Data Sources button. The following screenshot was taken in the Windows version, but the only difference is that Data Sources is a radio button at the top of the dialog box in Windows. It's a button at the bottom in the Mac:
After selecting Data Sources, select the image field from the approriate recordset. Then put your cursor in the URL field and paste in the path that you copied to your clipboard earlier.

Photo file names Deleted by iPad

Asked this 3 months ago, but got no response. Can't understand what iPad does to photo file names. 1. Can't see photo file name in albums/events. 2. when iPad emails photo, the file that is received is called only La Foto (the photo, my wife uses spanish). If I send her a photo with a name I assigned (date, camera-assigned number, file size), and she saves it to an album and sends it back, the file name I sent her is gone, and photo is simply La Foto. How can you organize or keep track of photos, w/o info such as name, date, camera number, etc.? And why does iPad remove specifically created names? Nothing in Manual or Settings on this.
We've an iPad, and also a MB Air and iMac.

Thanks for your time doing the check.
I'm sorry that currently I don't have the similiar resource to do the same.
I guess that it might be the difference caused by different iOS / idevice.
I think that I'll check and modify the app after I got iOS 6 devices.
Thanks for your comments and your time.
Thanks for your reply, and I hope you get a more recent device soon for Father's/Mother's Day or whatever! I'm a little confused as to what the situation is. According to w'pedia the iOS 5 that you have does have photostream, but I don't know if it supports multiple streams (which you create by touching the + when in photostream). Is the problem that your version does not support multiple streams so you can't test the issue I raised, or is it that it does support multiple streams and works correctly with iOS 5 but not with iOS 6?
PS: I've checked, and find my iPod has the same limitation as I mentioned above with the iPad.

The Japanese file name is not displayed.

I'm using Mac OS 10.5.3(intel)/Adobe Media Player 1.0
In "Personal Videos",The Japanese file name is not displayed.
Example, "日本語.flv" is added, ".flv" is displayed in "Personal Videos".

Thank you for reply.
>Try this: Go to the Apple menu > System preferences > International > Languages. Add Japanese to the list of languages, if it does not appear there already. If you drag Japanese above English in the list, the finder and many other applications will open next time with Japanese menus. Even if you do not want Japanese menus, make sure Japanese appears somewhere in your list of languages. Just having it there unlocks Japanese features in certain software, like Japanese encoding in Apple's Mail application.
When trying, the problem was not improved.
>If the Japanese menus make things hard for you in certain applications, you can set the language of specific applications individually using the following method: First, select the application's icon in the finder and choose "Get Info"from the File menu.
>
>Expand the Languages section of the Get Info window, and you'll see the languages available for the application. If you check Japanese and uncheck English, you will get Japanese menus; if you check English and uncheck Japanese, you'll get English menus. If both are checked, the language is determined by the order of languages in the International Preferences Pane.
In "Get Info" of the application based on Adobe AIR, "Languages section" is not found.

I have over 60,000 photos in my iPhoto. When my screen saver comes on it randomly shows certain photos. Often, these photos are old and I in turn find the desire to print said photo. Is there a way the screen saver can convey a photo file name as well?

Is there a way the screen saver can convey a photo file name or location as well? Can I create a slideshow of all my photos to cycle through at leisure with photo info? Lastly, I know I have duplicates and have tried numerous software programs to delete duplicates to no avail. What do you recommend as a method to reduce duplicates on iphoto? Thanks for your time.

1. No.
2. Yes.
3. Some apps for dealing with duplicates in iPhoto
iPhoto Library Manager
Duplicate Annihilator
Decliner
iPhoto Duplicate Cleaner

I can't sync my songs from my library, it tells me there is a duplicate file name, how can i fix this?

How do I change a photo file name, e.g. DSC001, etc.?

When I either import or download digital images into IPhoto, I need to change the filename in some instances. Using the Information feature in IPhoto, I give the photo a name or identifier and add other information. However, when I then burn the photo to a CD, the original filename, e.g. DSC001, etc. shows up. How can I change it?

This isn't true.
Select the photo, then Press Command + I or go to View > Info and double click the photo filename to rename it.
Best,
Aaron
That does NOT change the file name and does not help (Unless you use the option to use the title for the file name during export) - You can not change the file name while the photo is in iPhoto (unless you do so using the finder awhick will corrupt your library and cause data loss)

How do I get my photo file names to reflect the order in which I shot the photos?

I'm working on photographing around 600 food products. I'm shooting tethered to a MacBook Pro using Aperture 3. I'm using a Nikon D40X DSRL. When I go to process my images outside of Aperture (copying from the Masters folder to my iMac harddrive) the files are not named in the numerical order I shot them.
Sometimes I turn the camera off after taking one item and moving onto the next, but not always.
Is this a name setting that I need to make in the tethering dialog box?
Thanks for any help.

There are several things that affect the file naming -- they are named by the camera, and most cameras use a separate naming/numbering scheme for each folder/device. Having the camera or the computer go to sleep or being turned on or off can change how the camera "sees" the storage device.
Using the names as a index of the time order in which the photos were taken will never be without issues.
I suggest your sort by date in Aperture, and then batch rename with a counter or a sequence. Test this:
. on a few photos, and
. by changing just the Version name.
When you have settled on a scheme that meets your needs, save it as a File Naming Preset.
Of course, in Aperture your Images are easy to sort by date/time taken, and in Finder your files are easy to sort by time of file creation. This may give you the functionality you seek without having to hard-code the order of exposure into the file name.

Displaying photo file name on ATV

I don't think this has been asked yet, so....Does anyone know of a way to display the photo name when you are viewing the slideshow on the ATV similiar to the way you can view the file name in the iphoto slideshow? I haven't found this option if it exists in the ATV slideshow settings.

Sorry I don't believe there is such a function in the current version of tv

File Name of Image Displayed in PSE 8 does not match File Path Name in Windows 7

I recently got a new computer .I upgraded on my Windows XP computer from PSE 5.0 to PSE 8.0. I then moved my files to the new computer running Windows 7 following the instructions I received on an earlier post. I copied the catalog folder and the picture folders on the C drive from the old to the new computer (catalog folder to location specified in System Info; images to My Pictures).   Everything appears to have worked beautifully without having to go through a big Reconnect struggle. The organzer appears to have found all of the images and I can bring them up in Editor as well. However, when I look at the properties of a given image the full file name displayed is what it was on XP, i.e., C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\My Pictures\<folder name>\<file name> rather than the path as it is in Windows 7, i.e., C:\Users\<user name>\My Pictures\<folder name>\<file name>. I am new to Windows 7 so maybe I am missing something unique to Windows 7 but I would appreciate any information.

You're observing the special folder aliases that Vista and Windows 7 create to preserve backward compatibility (Microsoft keeps changing how and where users' documents are stored).   On Windows 7:
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\My Pictures
is a special kind of alias to the folder:
C:\Users\<user name>\Pictures
(And C:\Users<user name>\My Pictures is yet another kind of Windows 7 special alias, a "library", that includes the folder C:\Users<user name>\Pictures.)
Whenever an application like PSE refers to the old location, C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\My Pictures, Windows automatically translates that under the covers to C:\Users\<user name>\Pictures.   But Windows Explorer is configured to prevent you from accessing C:\Documents and Settings\ interactively -- only programs like PSE are able to do that. Microsoft wants users of Windows Explorer to always use the "new" name, C:\Users\<user name>\Pictures.
In your case, your catalog contained the old XP folder paths, and Windows is automatically translating them on the fly to the new paths, unbeknownst to PSE.
Like most such backward-compatibility hacks, this does not work perfectly. PSE thinks that the old path and the new path refer to two completely different folders. I'm not positive, but I think there are opportunities for PSE to get confused by that.   When you import new photos, they will get recorded in the catalog under the new folder paths.
In my previous recommendation for how to move to the new computer, I had assumed that you would most likely be changing user names and photo locations, and thus you would be forced to do a Reconnect, and you wouldn't have encountered this. If I had thought you weren't going to need a Reconnect, I would have recommended not using this method but rather using Backup/Restore (my first recommended method) -- my bad.
It may well be that your current catalog and PSE will work well enough.   But there is at least a small risk that down the road PSE will get confused by the old and new folder names. The easiest way to avoid that risk would be to start over and use the Backup/Restore method for moving your catalog, whch is more effort on your part. But because I don't fully understand the risk, I can't tell you whether you should be worried about it.   Definitely do some testing: editing, importing and editing new photos, use Display > Folder Location view, try renaming and moving old photos to new folders, try the Photo Downloader, etc.

Lost Photo after changing photo file name

Due to duplicate file name, e.g. P1002534.jpg in my photos, I was trying to rename some of them to a different name. I did that through Finder and other tools (e.g. Renamer) but apply directly to /iphoto libray/original or /iphoto libray/modified libraries.
After that I find that the thumbnail of the photo is still in iphoto but cannot display the photo itself.
I suspect that is because I modified the file name directly and not using iphoto function, the index is all screw up.
How can I recover from this, is there a reindex function or do I have to delete the iphoto library and then re-import the photos for the whole library again.
Appreciate for any advice.

You are correct - it is extremely important that you never make any changes of any sort to the structure or content of the iPhoto library - it is a SQL database and there are no user servicabe parts in it - and there never is a need to go into it
How can I recover from this, is there a reindex function or do I have to delete the iphoto library and then re-import the photos for the whole library again.
Best way is to load your backup from before you made this mistake
If you do not have a backup you must - people, software and computers fail and when they do you lose things if you do not have a backup
If you can put the library back exactly likeit was in every respect that will sork (usually that is not possible)
short of a backup or putting it back you must start over using the original folder from your library and importing those original photos into a new library

Photo file names not seen in PSE 12 editor while editing

How can I see the file name of a photo while editing in Photoshop Element 12?

Thanks for the answer. However the name shows only when in the Expert mode not the Quick or Guided modes.
I note that in the Expert mode only the relative size of the image on screen is shown as a percent in the lower right corner. That is where I am used to see that in the PSE 9.

Real file names don't display in iPhoto

About 2 weeks ago I upgraded to the most recent version of iPhoto (5.x). This seems to have corrupted the library file as many photos then disappeared from their albums, though the albums were visible.
Rebuilt the library database. This brought the missing photos back.
However, now most of the titles of the photos in iPhoto display as the roll name + a number. Yet when I double click on the photos, and they open in Photoshop, Photoshop displays the correct name.
Anyone have any leads on resolving this?

There's nothing to resolve. The Title and the File Name are different things. However, you can force the Title to match the File Name. Select a photo or photos and go to the Photos/Batch Change menu.
