Pull title from IPTC headline field not IPTC object name

I imported sample images from the IPTC.org site and filename shows up in LR title field because LR fills it's title field from IPTC title/object name field (frequently used for filename) rather than the recommended IPTC Headline field. I think the better practice would be for title in LR to come from the IPTC Headline field and suggest this change. I don't want to put my metadata titles in field other than the correct Headline field.
Thanks, Ralph Daily

>LR fills it's title field from IPTC title/object name field (frequently used for filename) rather than the recommended IPTC Headline field.
Can you give a reference where it is recommended that fields be filled from a different source?
On the surface, this would seem to lead to a lot of confusion. For example, what would happen to existing information in the Title/Object field if your suggestion was implemented? What happens when you synchronize XMP data back to the image?
IMO, the way it presently works is just fine. I use the Title/Object field for the original filename and the Headline field for whatever descriptive text I want. Others may have a different approach. Why should LR scramble the approach we have been using long before LR was around?

Use of Field "Note" (WT_WARNTXT, Tabke name-ACWT_ITEM) in Wht button-MIRO

Dear Experts,
What is the role of Use of Field "Note" (WT_WARNTXT, Tabke name-ACWT_ITEM) in Wht button in MIRO/FB60 Transaction.
For what purpose it is used. This is field is allowing for any thing to be enter.
How can we make it enable so that the geying out is removed.
Regards,
Alok

Hi
WT_WARNTXT - Field is just like a text field, you can enter the WHT information in that.
There is no field status control available for this - this is a structure field , which can't be controlled.

SSRS pulls data from ESSBASE cube, data not showing

Dear Experts,
We are connecting SSRS 2012 to Essbase 11.1.3 to pull data from the cube, and having some issues with some members data not showing in the query designer and report, while some have no problem. And we couldn't find a pattern on which members won't show. We are wondering if this is a known issue and if there is a way to solve the problem.
Thanks very much.
Grace

Hi ,
Check the following:-
1 Check whether you have made the joins properly.
2 Check data at multiprovider level .
3 is data available for reporting in both the cubes

You could try this:
Create a batch or shell script that executes ifconfig or ipconfig and writes the IP address out to a file.
Place each shell script file at different locations on each server within the cluster.
Then within the code, try to execute each script from an external process (Runtime.exec). Since the files are at different locations within each server only the correct shell script for each server should execute and write the IP Address to a file. You'll have to detect which one ran. Then open the file that was written, possible parse it for the IP Address and use the code that I already provided.
This is a time consuming process that will slow your application. Additionally depending on how your cluster is set up it might not work and still return the cluster's IP address.I got the solution....java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName(); works fine...But thanks guyz for ur responses

Oracle SQL Developer (Not seeing object names within the interface)

Hello,
I was finally able to perform an export/import from our production environment to our training environment. Anyway, this was done using the SYS account and for some reason, I have an issue where in Oracle SQL Developer, there are no object names being displayed, but the objects do exist within SQLPLUS if I should query the table.
The following error message displays when I refresh any of the objects folders within SQL Developer:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

I'm pretty new to the Oracle DBA space but not to SQL Server Ah. The first thing you need to do is check everything you think you know about rdbms at the door. The similarity between SQL Server and Oracle ends right after SELECT * FROM EMP.
Even the term "database" has different meanings.
First thing I see, in your original post, is that you did the export/import as SYS. Was this "as sysdba"?
From Oracle® Database Utilities
10g Release 2 (10.2):
Invoking Export and Import As SYSDBA
SYSDBA is used internally and has specialized functions; its behavior is not the same as for generalized users. Therefore, you should not typically need to invoke Export or Import as SYSDBA, except in the following situations:
* At the request of Oracle technical support
* When importing a transportable tablespace set
so it's quite possible that I missed something during the import/export of the environments.
Are there any system tables that get invoked when you click on any of the objects within the connection?

Multi-SCORM Packager Takes the SCO Title from the wrong field

I think I've just stumbled across a huge bug in the Cp7 Multi-SCORM Packager tool. Can anyone else confirm seeing this same issue?
I have a multi-SCORM course with several modules. Each SCO is set up in the LMS Manifest dialog with a unique ID in the SCO Identifier field (e.g. My_Course_Module_ID) and the SCO Title field underneath has the correct name of the same module (e.g. My Course Module). When published to SCORM zip files the imsmanifest.xml files for these modules are correct.
However, I've just discovered that when packaging up a number of these SCORM modules using the Multi-SCORM Packager tool, the resulting imsmanifest.xml file it produces is NOT using the SCO Title. When uploaded to an LMS the SCO Title shown in the LMS TOC seems to be whatever had been used as the Project Title field text in the Publish dialog at the time the SCO was published.
Here's the issue: The Publish Title field ends up being used for the file names of the output. So if you use a Project Title such as: My Course Module it will mean your HTM and SWF output file are named as My Course Module.htm and My Course Module.swf. The problem with this is obviously that the spaces in the filenames mean you cannot use them on the web. So, I normally use a lowercase name with underscore characters in the Project Title field (e.g. my_course_module) to ensure the output is web-compatible (e.g. my_course_module.htm, my_course_module.swf).
It doesn't matter whether you are publishing for SCORM 1.2 or 2004, the result is the same. The TOC in the LMS comes out with the wrong text string. The issue with this bug in the Multi-SCORM Packager taking the Title attribute for the imsmanifest.xml from the wrong dialog field means that the TOC strings displayed in the LMS are incorrect. So far I've found no way to resolve this issue other than manually modifying the combined imsmanifest.xml.
Has anyone else seen this issue? Can Adobe confirm if this is a known bug/issue so that I know if I need to log it or not? Is there a fix or workaround (other than manually editing each and every imsmanifest.)

Shriyansh,
Are you using the Cp7 version of the Multi-SCORM Packager or the Cp8 version? I'm talking about the Cp7 packager app.
I've tried this Cp7 SCORM Packager on two different machines installed a year apart and they both do the same thing.
Here is my Manifest dialog settings:
Note that what I'm expecting to see in the TOC of the LMS SCORM Player is the Title field name of the SCO (About Working in Courts in this case). But what I'm seeing appear is actually not that field, and it's not even the SCO ID field above it. (I tried changing that field as well to see if its value was what ended up getting written into the imsmanifest.xml for the multi-SCORM package.)
What ended up being used as the Title of the SCO in the package turned out to be the contents of the Publish dialog's Project Title field.
I verified this by changing the values in this Project Title field for a couple of SCOs, published them to zips and then compiled them into a Multi-SCORM. THEN I was seeing those values in the TOC of the LMS player.
Currently, when I create a Multi-SCORM Package with the Cp7 app, here's what I see in the Title tags of the Organizations block:
As you can see above, what's coming out is NOT the SCO Title tag value from the Manifest dialog, and although it looks similar, it's not the SCO ID either. The value is in fact taken from the Publish dialog's Project Title field.
Weird. I've never seen this issue in any previous version of the Multi-SCORM Packager tool.
Any ideas why this is getting so badly screwed up?

Search results displays title from the document and not from its metadata

Hi All,
I have an issue with SharePoint 2010 Search results. While searching for any content in SharePoint, it displays the title value from the keyword in the document and not from the metedata.
Scenario:- I have a document library and a document named "Bill Details C1234.doc" in it. The title for this item in document library is "Bill Details". However on searching with keyword "Bill" it displays the
first word in the word document which is "I".It should display the title set in the document i.e. "Bill Details".
Please suggest

I think you're looking to do the reverse of this:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/c2ec4fc2-e04c-453c-8035-4f334f062d05/have-search-results-display-the-filename-of-a-word-doc-instead-of-the-title-metadata?forum=sharepointsearchlegacy
check this out as well, again I think you want to reverse part of this where it references filename
http://chris.gg/2011/06/display-filename-instead-of-document-title-in-sharepoint-search/
So, where it references Filename, you would put title, but leave where it references title alone. Or maybe I misunderstood and you are looking for exactly this, to make search display the filename and not the title, in which case I trust that you'll
find this to be your answer.

How can I split a pdf and append a unique id- from a document field - to the file name?

I receive a 250 page pdf each month which needs to be split into separate docs and named with the account number found on each page. How can I do this?

This can be (potentially) done with a script, but a lot depends on how the file is set up. Without seeing the file itself it is almost impossible to say if it can be done or not.

Receiving a call from saved number but not showing the name

I have problem with my contacts, after upgrading the IOS to IOS 5.0 I found this issue:
I have some of the contacts which their numbers saved on the phone book and when they call me their name doesn't show and it shows only the number. I tries to make changes such as removing or adding the country code and still no change.
It is not me only because I asked some of my friends and they said they have the same isuue since they upgraded the IOS into IOS 5.0.
Note: I have upgraded the IOS today to IOS 5.0.1 and the same issue and no change.

Force a Two Line IPTC Headline entry

I use the IPTC Headline field for player's Name, Number, and Position, as part of actions in Photoshop for creating Memory Mates. I need the information to appear as the sample below for the action to work correctly.
Bobby Smith, #30
Running Back
Question - Does anyone know how to force a "hard" return after the number in the IPTC Headline field in Lightroom?
When typing in the information, the text wraps around fine. However, when you open up the file information in Photoshop, all of the text is on a single line. If I hit the "return" key after typing in the number, Lightroom jumps to the next field. Thanks!!!

Or, on Windows:
1. Turn on the numlock
2. Hold down the ALT key
3. On the numeric keyboard type 010
4. Release the ALT key
May work on a keyboard without a numeric keypad, such as a laptop (Your mileage may vary).

Raw files (CR2) - Cannot modify IPTC Core fields, get error messages

I really hope someone out there can help me out here because I'm at my wit's end!!!!
I have a bunch of raw files in a folder, these are just pictures I took for a bit of general practice over Christmas.
Now, whilst trying to modify the IPTC Core Fields (basically adding my name and my email address to the pictures), it worked fine for most of the pictures, but for some reason it will not work for the last 20. This is driving me nuts. :(
The first picture which doesn't work was taken literally 2 seconds after the last one which does work. All pictures work perfectly well in Photoshop, I can open them, modify them, save them as jpgs... no problem. But it just won't let me change the metadata. The pencils on the IPTC Core fields are nowhere to be found, the option File>File Info appears greyed out... etc.
The error messages I get:
1. When clicking on any line of the IPTC Core Fields (such as "Creator") =
i "This property cannot be modified".
2. When clicking on the keywords tab and trying to enter keywords =
i "The file Name.CR2 cannot store XMP metadata. No changes will occur"
I have scoured the web for help, visited multiple forums... to no avail. It looks like other people are having the same problem but no-one seems to have a solution. I haven't done anything different to those 20 pictures, so I just can't think of a logical answer, it just doesn't make sense!!
I am only starting to catalogue my pictures in the hope of going professional one day and this is extremely discouraging... if anyone out there can help, I'd be ever so grateful. Right now I just feel like pulling my hair out!! :'(
OK, rant over :)
Thanks very much for reading and thanks very, very much in advance for any suggestions/ideas!!

I have run into the same problem. I downloaded photos in raw format ".CR2" from a Canon 40D via a compact flash card reader to my laptop. I labelled the ones I wanted green and then transferred these images via wireless transfer to my desktop. I had not checked any keywords while these were on the laptop. I used the Bridge (CS3)File/Copy to menu selection to effect the transfer. Both systems are Windows XP, SP2.
I then tried to check a keword in my list for an image and got the error message number 2 reported by Maria Atkins above. I got the same for all images on the desktop system.
Observations:
-the green labelled items are correctly filtered on the desktop, but the labels on the images all show white.
-not all images even have .xmp files associated with them. It appears to be a random thing.
-although I have checked my preference to have double click open an image in Camera Raw in Bridge it will not do so with these images, always opening Camera Raw in Photoshop.
-the camera exif data is correctly attached to the images, whether there is a .xmp file associated or not.
-On my laptop I found I can check keywords and they are stored with the image with no complaints from Bridge, and whether the image has a .xmp file associated with it or not. This is after I had copied the images to the desktop. I was just checking whether the problem was with the original images or just the transferred ones. It appears to be that something was not done correctly in the transfer.
This is not a trivial issue since it is essential for cataloging images to enable future searches. I hope someone from Adobe is paying attention and will respond with an answer.

IPTC Headline vs IPTC Object Name

I'm just curious....
Everything I've read about using IPTC fields recommends that we use HEADLINE for the short descriptive caption. And that OBJECT NAME be reserved for a more technical reference.
Yet, I see that iPhoto uses the Object Name....
Do we know why Apple made that decision?
I have lots of data in Headline.... I'll have to transfer it to Title before I can import to iPhoto.
Thanks for your consideration
Marion

iPhoto uses IPTC field 120, Caption/Abstract, for the descriptions. The titles are put into the IPTC field 05 - Object Name (Title). Why Apple uses those fields: you'll have to ask Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html
The following are the IPTC field titles:
*05Object Name (Title)

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) 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.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Please more support for the IPTC Headline tag!

The use of the IPTC Headline tag (as opposed to the Title tag) is being discussed in posts back to 2007.
Basically it's weird that Lightroom supports the Title tag with filters and search function whereas the Headline tag sees none of that treatment.
Per definition the Headline tag
"... is a brief, publishable synopsis or summary of the contents of the photograph. Like a news story's lead, the Headline should grab attention and summarize the image's content. Headlines must be succinct. Leave any supporting narrative for the Description field. Do not, however, confuse the Headline term with Title."
whereas the Title tag
"... can include a shorthand reference for the image or “photograph” - primarily for identification. The title of an image should be a short, human-readable name - text and/or numeric reference - and may take several forms. For photographers, this might be the filename of their original scan or digital camera file. For news organizations it might be the name of a story it accompanies. The Title term should not be confused with the Headline term, which is a short synopsis of the photograph's content."
These definitions should make it fairly clear that the Headline tag needs at least the same tools treatment as the Title tag has.

IPTC Description Field via Generic Panel

I want to access some IPTC Core Fields (Description , Title) via the properties.xml from the Generic Panel .
I tried dc:description but that doesnt work - any help out there ?
Best regards

I found out how to do this thanks to Carl Rambert.
The title and description field is in an alt-array - if I understand this correctly. So to get it to work, you have to use the code in your generic panel's properties.xml as follows (it's basically changing the type from "text" to "langalt:"
<xmp_schema prefix="dc" namespace="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" label="What ever you want as a header" description="$$$/Custom/Schema/Description=This example panel contains most of the options available for the 'Generic Panel'.">
<xmp_property name="description" category="external" label="Description:" type="langalt" ui:multiLine="true" ui:height="75"/>
</xmp_schema>
