Questions about using Lightroom to import my pictures..

Hi.
My main use for Lightroom is picture import, as it does a superb job on arranging my pictures at import time, but I have a few questions that maybe you guys can answer.
First and foremost, my camera has that orientation data, but somehow the image file that ends up on my hard drive is always vertical (i.e. 3264x2448) even though there are pictures that are shot horizontal (i.e. 2448x3264). Is Lightroom capable of importing the pictures already rotated, or is there a setting that allows that? (Note that the pictures INSIDE Lightroom are shown rotated, but I'm talking about the JPG file stored in my hard drive)
Second, how can I set up Windows Vista to display Lightroom as an option to import pictures when I insert my card or connect my camera?
Thanks..

Let me see if I understand your rotation issue. It seems that you shoot jpeg (using which camera?) and that the images show correctly rotated in Lightroom but not in another (unspecified) application.
Does the software that came with the camera show the jpeg properly rotated? (I'm certain that it does.) What software doesn't show proper rotation? Windows Explorer? You would not want Lightroom to physically rotate the image on disk since that would violate it's non-destructive editing rule.
Lightroom has a preference setting that allows the import dialog to be shown when a memory card is detected. Avoid importing directly from the camera and use a card reader.

  • Questions about Using APIs to import Bills and Routings - AND COSTS

    Hi Forum - the following is a back-and-forth with a customer about use of APIs - Inventory developer suggested I post the question here. Note the 2nd question - and thanks for any assistance.
    SR# 7332152.994 ALCOA
    Instructions given to ct:
    Q1 - Can I load the bill header and components at the same time?
    You should be able to load the bill header and components at the same time. Customer loads bill and component data inserting enough "other" data for each so that the bill sequence id will be derived. For the component record, the assembly item, org and alternate_bom_designator values will be used by BMCOIN to derive the bill_sequence_id.
    Example:
    INSERT INTO BOM_BILL_OF_MTLS_INTERFACE
    ORGANIZATION_CODE,
    ITEM_NUMBER,
    ALTERNATE_BOM_DESIGNATOR,
    PROCESS_FLAG,
    TRANSACTION_TYPE
    VALUES
    'M1',
    '&PARENT_ITEM',
    NULL,
    '1',
    'CREATE'
    INSERT INTO BOM_INVENTORY_COMPS_INTERFACE b
    ORGANIZATION_CODE,
    ASSEMBLY_ITEM_NUMBER,
    ALTERNATE_BOM_DESIGNATOR,
    COMPONENT_ITEM_NUMBER,
    OPERATION_SEQ_NUM,
    COMPONENT_QUANTITY,
    EFFECTIVITY_DATE,
    PROCESS_FLAG,
    TRANSACTION_TYPE
    VALUES
    'M1',
    '&PARENT_ITEM',
    NULL,
    '&COMPONENT_ITEM',
    1,
    1,
    trunc(SYSDATE),
    1,
    'CREATE'
    Hi Aruna, some additional information that may be useful:
    We can load/create the bill header and components at the same time using the scripts given (as above)
    Required Data for Creating a Routing : assembly_item_id,
    organization_id, routing_type, transaction_type, process_flag
    And following scripts can be used to load routing header and operations equences.
    INSERT INTO BOM_OP_ROUTINGS_INTERFACE
    (assembly_item_id,
    organization_id,
    routing_type,
    transaction_type,
    process_flag)
    VALUES (2255800,207,1,'Create',1);
    INSERT INTO BOM_OP_SEQUENCES_INTERFACE
    (assembly_item_id,
    organization_id,
    operation_seq_num,
    Department_code,
    effectivity_date,
    transaction_type,
    process_flag,
    operation_description)
    VALUES
    (2255800,207,100,'ASSEMBLY',
    to_date('24-FEB-2009'),'Create',1,
    'Paint Wagon');
    Q2: One more question, can an expense item can be added to the bill and can contribute the cost.
    As there is a confusion of what I asked, below I am rephrasing my question
    By an Expense Inventory Item, I mean an item that is just tracked for quantity only i.e.,Checking the attributes - Inventory Item, Stockable, Transactable under Inventory Tab and not checking the attribute - 'Inventory Asset Value'.
    My question here is, For these Expense Inventory Items, What is the difference between having the 'Costing enabled' attribute turned ON as opposed to having it UNCHECKED
    *Q3 I have tried to load the items and I could only load 1st level of components but could not load second level of bom at the same time.
    While inserting I have inserted plan level too.
    Please let me know if I have to do anything different to load second level.*
    Thanks
    James

  • Questions about Using Lightroom and Print Studio Pro

    I want to use Print Studio pro via the lightroom plugin since as I understand it, that is the only way to ensure a 16-bit file is being passed to the printer (on Windows).  However, I am a little confused about how the image is being rendered.  Is lightroom applying a default output sharpening to the file before handing it off to Print Studio Pro or Does Print Studio Pro manage resolution and Output sharpening based on the media and print size you choose?  
    So basically I am wondering if there is any output sharpening being applied, and when is it applied.  The possibilities I think would be:
    Lightroom is applying a default output sharpening when rendering the file to TIF for Print Studio Pro (If this is the case, what setting is being applied and is it possible to change it?)
    Print Studio Pro is applying output sharpening based on media type and print size, or applying a generiz amount of sharpening that does not take into account media or size.
    No Sharpening is being applied.  In this case, I should probably be exporting this file manually with output sharpening applied and then opening in Print Studio Pro
    The other question I have is if when using the plugin is the TIF file that is being generated in 16-bit pro-photo to ensure the maximum amount of color data?
    Because if Print Studio Pro is not applying sharpening I think it may just be better to print through the lightroom tool even though it renders down to 8-bit because the amount of control I have via the lightroom print module would be far more advantageous than any color data I am losing by printing in 8-bit.
    Anyone know the answer to all this?

    I had similar questions when I first got my Pro-100.
    1. You can call up PSP from any module, so I assume it is ignoring print module settings.
    2. If I select a Saved Print, which adjusts the print module settings specific to that print, and the open PSP the paper settings in PSP are not what is in LR, supporting the "ignore" conclusion.
    3. I ran some test prints using LR to print at three different output sharpening settings (Off, Standard, High) to ensure I could see a difference (I did).
    4. I ran four test prints: LR-Standard, XPS driver, LR-Standard regular driver, PSP using standard driver and PSP using XPS driver. I couldn't see any difference between the four prints.
    Since LR is such an easy printing process I haven't seen a reason to use PSP.

    I have a question about using multiple ipads in our school.  Each of our teachers have a iPad and AppleTV in their classroom.  The issue is, with our classrooms so close in proximity to one another, is there a way to pair teacher #1 iPad to its AppleTV without effecting/projecting onto the adjacent teachers #2 classroom AppleTV?

    Not as such.
    Give the AppleTV units unique names and also enable Airplay password in settings with unique passwords for each teacher.

  • Hi, I have quick question about use of USEBEAN tag in SP2. When I specify a scope of SESSION for the java bean, it does not keep the values that I set for variable in the bean persistent.Thanks,Sonny

     

    Make sure that your bean is implementing the serializable interface and that
    you are accessing the bean from the session with the same name.

  • Question about using new battery in old Powerbook

    I have a pre-intel Powerbook G4, and the battery is pretty much toast (lasts about 15 minutes now). I have ordered a new battery for it, and I have this question about using it:
    Am I smarter to keep the new strong battery out of the PB most days (as I usually work with it plugged in at home) and just pop it in when I know I will be out surfing on batteries? Or is it just as good living in my laptop 24/7 and only occasionally being called upon to do its job?
    Current bad Battery Information below:
    Battery Installed: Yes
    First low level warning: No
    Full Charge Capacity (mAh): 1144
    Remaining Capacity (mAh): 1115
    Amperage (mA): 0
    Voltage (mV): 12387
    Cycle Count: 281
    thanks folks, Shereen

    Hi, Shereen. Every Powerbook battery wants to be used — drained and then recharged — at least every couple of weeks. If you've always used your Powerbook on AC power nearly all the time, and not followed that pattern of discharging and recharging the battery every week or two, it's possible that your use habits have shortened the lifespan and prematurely diminished the capacity of your old battery. Of course it's also possible that your battery is merely old, as a battery's capacity also diminishes with age regardless of how it's used. You didn't say how old the battery is in years, so this may or may not be an issue. I mention it only because it can be an issue.
    For general information on handling a battery for the longest possible lifespan, see this article. My advice on the basis of that article and long experience reading these forums is that it would be OK to do as you propose, but I doubt that you'd derive any significant benefit from it. You would still want to be sure of putting the new battery through a charge/discharge cycle every week or two, even if you didn't have a reason to use the Powerbook away from home or your desk, because sitting unused outside the computer is just as bad for a battery as sitting unused inside it. And you should never remove the battery from your computer when it's completely or almost completely discharged and let it sit that way any longer than a day or two.

  • Question about using TVARV in an ABAP program

    Hello gurus, Im sorry about the silly question.
    I have a question about using TVARV in an ABAP program.
    A program is presenting a problem and I think that in this code:
    SELECT SIGN OPTI LOW HIGH
      FROM TVARV
      INTO TABLE R_1_163431035_VELOCIDADE
      WHERE  NAME = '1_163431035_VELOCIDADE'
      AND    TYPE = 'S'.
      IF ZMM001-VELOCIDADE_B   IN R_1_163431035_VELOCIDADE AND
          ZOPERADORAS-OPERADORA = 'ABCD' AND
          ZMM001-MATERIAL       IN R_1_163431035_PRODUTO.
      ELSE.
      ENDIF.
    What happens is that the value "ZMM001-SPEED" B not exist in "R1_163431035_VELOCIDADE" but the program executes commands under the IF and not under the ELSE, as I imagine it would work. Is this correct ?
    I am new to ABAP programming, but I have a lot of XP in other programming languages ​​and this makes no sense to me.
    Anyone know where I can find some documentation of the use of "TVARV" in ABAP programs?
    I search the Internet if other programmers use TVARV this way, but found nothing, which leads me to think that was a quick and dirty solution that used here.
    If this is a bad way to program, what would be the best way?
    Regards
    Ronaldo.

    Hi Ronaldo,
    But in this case, the range is not empty, there are 17 records, in this way.:
    For the column "SING" all values ​​are "E"
    It means that the result is false if ZMM001-VELOCIDADE_B has the same value as one of the 17 records (E = exclude).
    For instance, if it has value 'C' and one of 17 records matches C, then the result is false.
    The "IF" with "IN" using "TVARV" as used in the program of the post above has the same behavior of a selection screen?
    Yes, the same behavior as the selection criterion to be exact. You can press the help key in the complex selection dialog for more info.
    I know it's a silly and very basic question, but other language that I used, only the SQL has the "IN" operator, but I think they work in different ways, so I would like to understand how it works in ABAP.
    Not silly ;-). Yes they work differently.

  • Question about Using PAPI Web Service in PowerBuilder 9

    Hi, all.
    I Have a simple question about using papiws in power builder 9.
    In pb9, I created a new Web Service Proxy Wizard and I input a url for papiws(ex. http://seraphpernote:7001/papiws/PapiWebService) and click next.
    But I couldn't get any Service List.
    In Eclipse, I used this url for using papiws well.
    Does anybody know about this case??
    help me plz.

    IIRC you must activate PAPI-WS for the engine. In Studio you do it by right-clicking on the project, then "engine preferences". In enterprise/standalone you must activate PAPI-WS in the Admin Center.

  • Question about using 10g/11g and APEX ...

    Hi,
    I just recently learned of Oracle's APEX and have a few questions about using it.
    Can I use APEX with express, standard, and enterprise editions of 10g and 11g?
    Are all of these free to use?

    You might want to read about APEX rather than jumping into questions that are reasonably well documented. Info at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/index.html
    Your specific questions:
    1) Apex is a package that can be installed into any properly licensed database.
    2) The price for the production license of the database varies by edition.
    The price for Express Edition is $0 for use in production. Part of the cost for that edition is 'no Oracle Support based support, no patches, data volume limitation, etc.'

  • Question about using Runtime.getRuntime();

    hi all
    i have a question about using Runtime.getRuntime(). if i use this to get a runtime reference to run an external program, is it considered as starting a new thread inside the thread that starts it?
    is it safe to do it in the Session EJB? if not, what can you recommand to do it? thanks

    hi all
    i have a question about using Runtime.getRuntime().
    if i use this to get a runtime reference to run an
    external program, is it considered as starting a new
    thread inside the thread that starts it? No. Starting a process, starts a process. Threads have nothing to do with it.
    is it safe to do it in the Session EJB? if not, what
    can you recommand to do it? thanksSo what? Run another process? If you want to run another process in java then your choices are to use Runtime.exec() or use JNI. And using JNI will probably end up doing exactly the same thing as Runtime.exec().
    "Safe" is harder. Typically to correctly use Runtime.exec() you must use threads. And as noted threads ideally should not be used. You can use them but if you do you had better understand why they didn't want you using them in the first place. You had also better be sure that you really want to wait for it to complete.
    Other than that Runtime.exec() is safe because it can't crash the VM like other interfaces can (like JNI.)

  • Question About Using iPhoto With Sony Wireless Auto Import

    I just bought a Sony DSC-RX100M2 and I'm very excited about the prospect of sending my photos wirelessly to my Retina MacBook Pro OSX 10.9.1.
    I use iPhoto but I just know the basics.
    I just imported 2 test pictures.
    I can find them in Finder: My Home folder has a folder called Pictures.  Sony placed a folder there called 2-14-14 (i.e. today's date), and the two pictures were in that folder. 
    I opened iPhoto and imported those pictures into my photo library.  Great.
    Now the question.  Once these pictures have been imported into my photo library, can I delete the 2-14-14 folder (and its contents) created by the Sony import?  It seems that I can, and the pictures are still in my photo library.  But if that is the case, where are the pictures?
    Mind you, I don't really need to "know" where the files are.  I just need to be assured that after I import a photo into the photo library, I can delete the original folder where the import came in from my camera (which I think I've just proven to myself that I can?).
    I'm sorry, this is probably basic stuff for most iphoto users, but I just want to make sure that I do not accidentally trash any photos.
    Thanks

    Now the question.  Once these pictures have been imported into my photo library, can I delete the 2-14-14 folder (and its contents) created by the Sony import?

  • Questions about using the Voice Memos app

    I'm currently an Android user, but will be getting an iPhone 6 soon. My most used app is the voice memos app on my Android phone. I have a couple questions about the iPhone's built-in voice memos app.
    -Am I able to transfer my voice memos from my Android phone to my iPhone, so my recordings from my Android app will show up in the iPhone's voice memos app?
    -When exporting voice memos from the iPhone to computer, are recordings in MP3 format? If not, what format are they in?
    -In your opinion, how is the recording quality of the voice memos app?

    You cannot import your Android voice memos to your iPhone's voice memo app.  You might be able to play the Android memos and have the iPhone pick up the audio and record it.
    Here is the writeup about sending voice memos from the iPhone to your computer (from the iPhone User Guide):
    App quality is excellent.
