Quick question on KEYWORD Search

Hello,
Any idea how does a Keyword Search works ..Could not find any good documentation .
I have an issue with customer where they are doing a key word search on 3 words and not pulling the data since all the 3 words are not matched.If we try to do a search with 2 matching words it pulls up the data.
Its in iRecruitment Vacancy search feature which uses Oracle text.
How to do Keyword search with multiple words for an AND and OR Condition.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Gopi

From Technet:
Role-based administration does not support an explicit deny action on security roles, security scopes, or collections assigned to an administrative
user. Instead, configure security roles, security scopes, and collections to grant permissions to administrative users. If users do not have permissions to objects by use of these role-based administration elements, they might have only partial access to some
objects, for example they might be able to view, but not modify specific objects. However, you can use collection membership to exclude collections from a collection that is assigned to an administrative user.

Question about keyword searches

Hi,
When I am searching a large collection of pictures by keyword, how should I set Aperture such that if I select 1 keyword, the ONLY OTHER keywords that Aperture shows me and allows me to select are those that already contain the first keyword I had selected?
So for example, if I select the keyword "SAN FRANCISO" then all the remaining keywords that I am able to select should not be my entire collection of keywords, but rather only those that exist within photos that currently also have a tag of SAN FRANCISO on them. By this logic, then, I am unlikely to see the tag "EGYPT" but more likely to see the tag "Coffeeshop".
Any ideas?

if I understand u correctly, yes.
-- Include if "All" of the following "Match" -- (instead of "Any")
so a search for "San Francisco" will only show San Francisco, if not, you'll get San Diego, San Pedro,...if "All" is not selected, as oppose to "Any"

Quick question: apply keyword to multiple photos?

I select multiple photos in the browser. I call up the keywords HUD. I find the keyword I want; I drag it onto the multiple images; it applies to ONE IMAGE ONLY.
I ended up having to apply it to one, then use the lift and stamp tool. Took forever.
What could I be doing wrong? Must be something stupid, because I know this is supposed to work. (I had my "Aperture Getting Started" manual open to the keyword section too.)
Thanks in advance!

make sure that you don not have "primary only" selected (keyboard shortcut is 'S') ... it can easily be selected - ive done it a few times on accident, or there is an icon on the bottom control bar ...
this only allows changes to be made to the "primary" of a group of selected images - thicker white border ...

Quick Question on String Searches

I'm about to write a small program to find a target string in any file format, then display the target string and the first 200 characters before and 200 characters after the target string to the console. I want to use OOP, using main() for testing purposes only, but I'm not sure of the best way to approach this. Should I use the store() and load() methods from Properties or just use indexOf()? Any thoughts, folks? Thanks.

If fyou are going to be searching in any file format (including binary files such as Word docs) then you can't really use the indexOf or the Properties class (I am not sure what your intentions were with the Properties class, but using it requires a particular file format).
Just off the top of my head, I would suggest using a RandomAccessFile and seeking around, reading data into buffers when you find what you want. To me, this isn't exactly a job for OOP, at least at its guts. You can use OOP to come up with a design - perhaps using specific "Searchers" tuned to particular file formats, and then have a driver class that determines, at runtime, which Searcher class to use for a given file. But again, that's just off the top of my head.
Good Luck

Re-importing into iPhoto 06 Quick Question

I hope.
My photos are on an external hard drive. I jogged the wire the other day during an import and stopped the import. When I next loaded up iPhoto all the photos had changed to ! , so I reimported them, which all worked fine, but it's reimported everything including the thumbnails, so I now have every picture at least twice and want to get rid of all the small sized files.
Can I do it a quick way like search for photos below a certain size or should I import from a different point? I imported from the iPhoto directory, but should I have been a bit more specific on a sub directory? I want to make sure I get the original photos and any photos I've edited.
Finally, should I delete the existing thumbnails in one of the directories before I re-import?
Thanks

It’s not a quick question.
so I reimported them, which all worked fine, but it's reimported everything including the thumbnails, so I now have every picture at least twice
This was not the way to go about this. You’ve now imported to a damaged database and that is inherently unstable.
There is no way to search on file size in iPhoto. You may have some luck with Duplicate Annihilator
However, do you still have the original library? If so, here’s how to start over:
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

In Adobe Bridge, how can I display keywords in their hierarchy, do an "aka" keyword assignment, and perform multi-value keyword searches?

Hi Bridge Geniuses!
I need your help. I am using Bridge to sort and keyword a pretty big photo archive. I have created a pretty long nested hierarchy (4 layers deep, max) and, for a few reasons, would like the parent tags to be automatically included when I indicate a sub-tag. The problem I have now is that the keyword list is distractingly long and organized alphabetically. My first question is this: is there a preference setting in Bridge that will ask the program to display the keywords in their hierarchy? That is, will Bridge present the list as, for example, cars à hybrids à Toyotas à Prius.
My second question is: if I have two or more names that represent the same keyword, is there an “aka” function in this program that will allow me to direct searches for two or more different words to the same keyword entry? (For example, if I want my searches for “Bruce Wayne” to also show entries marked as “Batman.”)
Finally, I would like to know if Bridge will perform keyword searches for more than one word at a time. So far, I have tried entering two keywords with overlap at a time, separated by a space or a comma or a semicolon, and the search comes up empty.
Thank you very much for your help!

I reset my custom workspace and all seems to be well now. My keywords now show, the number of photos each applies to and I can again search.
Thank you.

CS3 Bridge keyword search failure

To the best of my knowledge this particular issue has not been covered in the dozens of prior posts about keywords. I apologize if I've missed it.
My photos, by the nature of their creation and paperwork generation, are organized by overall dividers, year, month, partial alphabetic breakdown, and customer name, respectively. I have a need to be able to find photos across all folders throughout the hierarchy that are of the same person. I've been using keywords of the individuals' names to accomplish this and it has been tremendously effective.
In 2009, it became necessary to move all images archived in 2008 to another location on the server. As one might expect, the keywords didn't jive with the index (my reasoning, anyway) and search functionality was ineffective. Not long thereafter, the functionality came back - most likely by way of a non-indexed keyword search.
The same issue has occured this year in that all the images shot in 2009 had to be moved. I have changed the manner in which the structure is built to prevent this from being necessary again in the future, but the keyword search is now not functioning again. However, this time I am unable to re-establish it. I have tried multiple non-indexed (with subdirectory) keyword searches both across the entire server and in smaller folder breakdowns. I have cleared the cache and searched again. Even if I open a folder with brand new files and verify keyword presence and accuracy, a search inside that specific folder will not return a result.
The question is: What have I done / missed?
Even if it had nothing to do with moving the 2009 files, I may have done something to knock something askew that's impeding my search abilities. I don't use Bridge for very complex tasks, so I might need some extra help, but I'm keenly interested in your ideas and expertise. Assistance in any form will be appreciated.

Im geting the same... I tried refreshing cache etc... but no avail...

LR keyword search (coming from PSE Organizer 9)

I am using LR 4.1 RC2. This morning using LR I upgraded my PSE Organizer 9 catalog. It has about 50k photos with keywords and star ratings. It seems like the upgrade worked because I can now see all my photos in LR and they have the keywords and star ratings. Hurray! I am having some trouble figuring out how to do keyword searches in LR though so I hope someone can help.
In Organizer there are several ways to do keyword searchs:
1. Use the Keyword Tags panel and click on one or multiple keywords. Organizer will then display only the photos that have all of the keywords, i.e., it uses AND. This is very easy and is great for finding things very quickly when using one or more keywords.
2. Use Find > By Details (Metadata) which allows searching by multiple keywords and the choice of AND or OR. You can also combine the keyword search with other metadata so that, for example, you can find all Bird photos taken in Florida using a Canon 7D + 100-400mm at ISO 400 in April 2011 that have 3 or more stars. I use this option to search fairly often.
3. Use the Search bar and type in search expressions using NOT, AND, and OR. I occasionally use this for complicated searches that #2 can't handle. This is a pain in the butt to use since you must type everything out, but when #1 or #2 can't do it (which is rare) it is great to have this option too.
Several months ago I read on the PSE forum a thread about using Organizer and an Adobe developer recommended upgrading to LR since it was more flexible and meant for professionals and serious amateurs. Therefore even though I have read the LR help info and can't find how to do sophisticated searches I am sure it is possible and I just haven't found it yet. Here is what I have found so far:
1. Use the Keyword List panel where I can select only one keyword.
2. Use the Library Filter bar where I can do a ctrl-click on multiple keywords, but this results in an OR instead of AND. In other words, if I click on Birds and then ctrl-click on Florida I get all bird photos and all Florida photos (the union, not the intersection). This is probably almost never what a person wants.
I hope someone can tell me or point me to documentation so that I can at least do as much as the amateur Organizer can do. Thank you!

John, thanks for the reply. Yes, I am discovering that the amateur Organizer has much better searching capability than the professional Lightroom. I have already mentioned in my post the flexibility and power and Organizer is not even as good as some other programs. I had spent time investigating LR, but mostly raw conversion and non-destructive editing. I had, I think naturally, assumed that LR's database functions would be at least as good as the cheap Organizer. I never dreamt that they would not be as good or as easy to use. I sometimes wonder what happens in corporations when they seem to forget their own past and come out with new stuff that is a step or two backwards compared to their older, lower end stuff. Oh well.
Thank you very much for the tip about having more than one instance of keywords in the filter bar. That helps.
After I posted I discovered using Smart Collections and that helps a bit too. It is sort of a cutdown, less user friendly version of the Find By Details (Metadata) function in Organizer. It also means that for just a one time search I would have to create a smart collection and then delete it. What's with that, I wonder? Of course, if you often want to do that same search then it is good (Organizer allows you to save the search too), but most of the time I just do it one time. Oh well.
I looked at the Any Tag plugin and also the Any Filter plugin (same website) and I might download them to try out.
What I would like for Adobe to do is have their LR developers (probably a more prestigious development team in the company) talk to their Organizer developers (maybe a less prestigious development team) so that the LR developers can learn a bit about this. Yes, I have been a software developer for many years so I do understand a bit about development organizations. LR and PS are standard bearing products so their teams probably are held in higher esteem. Time to be humble and talk to other people though, IMO.
If any LR developers happen to read this then please know that I mean no offense. But, please, at least, take a look at Organizer and see if you can come up with something simpler that requires less typing of multiple long keywords and more powerful searching using various types of metadata. I am not saying Organizer is the best out there, but it is much better than LR in this case.

Keyword search not working properly in Mail since iCloud upgrade

Since I upgraded to iCloud from MobileMe and Lion from Snow Leopard, the new Mail (Version 5.2 (1278)) does not execute keyword searches properly. With the previous version I could start entering a keyword and all potential matches based on my criteria (email contents, from, to, subject etc.) would populate the window with all possible matches from whichever folders I specified or all folders. That is not happening now. I have entered numerous keywords in the search box for matches I know exist, but they are not being found.
Anyone also seeing this issue? I am using Mail to access an IMAP email account for my business. Again, this was not a problem before the migration to iCloud and the forced Mail version upgrade.

Thank you. I can't find "startup volume" in the side bar. Is that my SSD (or hard disc) main boot drive you're taliking about? I hope this will work...
If it doesn't work, you might try posting a new discussion to see if others might have some thoughts on it.
Well, there's another post (here):
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1293956
from the looks of it, I'm in serious trouble as this is now becomming a common issue and one that has no resolve. This really messes everything up as I need (as well as a lot of others out there) to use the search on a daily basis for me to check on past emails. I rely on that to work. This is terrible... There is really no other way to search for anything now. What was Apple thinking?...
Again, I look forward to your reply to my (above) question...

Keyword Search Not Functioning Correctly

In firefox 3, Keyword search does exactly as explained in the link below. However, when I downloaded Firefox 4, keyword search does not work as it did in Firefox 3. When I type "Mozilla foundation" (or any improper URL) in firefox 4 and hit enter, it simply does a google search. I have tried everything to fix this issue. I tried resetting the "Keyword.enabled" setting with no success. When I disable keyword search, then Domain guessing steps in and does its job.
Heres an example:
In firefox 3, if I type "yah" into the navigation bar, it brings me straight to http://www.yahoo.com/. This is how I would expect keyword search to work.
In Firefox 4, If I type "yah" into the navigation bar, it brings me to a google search of yah.

I figured out what to do, and I am only posting a reply for people with similar problem.
1. Go to "about:config"
2. Search for Keyword.URL
3. Double click it, and enter the following string value: http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=
4. Hit ok, restart firefox, and it works!
Here's what happened. The guy above gave me links that told me how to modify the keyword.url setting. However, none of the links gave the value I needed to enter to make it work. So, I had an epiphany! I opened firefox 3, I copied the '''default''' value for keyword.url. Then I posted that value into firefox 4's keyword.url. It seems kind of silly that mozilla would change the default for that setting, but whatever. I then tried to figure out how I could import all of the Firefox 3 values into the firefox 4 values, but I quickly gave up haha.

Any Program to sort by keywords faster than CS-PS6-Bridge For Keyword Search?

To sort by keywords in (CS-PS6)-Bridge one has to group all your folders under one overall folder. Then when you search by keywords (CS-PS6)-Bridge opens up all the photos in Bridge which take avery long time. Since Lightroom Smart Previews open up smaller files will it open up all ones pictures faster? and then can it sort by keywords.
I am assuming Lightroom smart preview opens up a larger size file than CS6-PS-6-Bridge and thus is even slower.
So the question becomes are there Any Program to sort by keywords faster than CS-6-Bridge For Keyword Search? i.e A program that doesn't have to open up a file to look at keywords or a way to open smaller thumbnails in Bridge?

Really?
You mean you can't just click on the Magnifying Glass in the Search Box like I can?
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
And then Select Rating?
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
And then click on the Third Dot and it will become a Star?

Or even use a Smart Album? File -> new Smart Album: My Rating -> is -> And there's click on the third dot to make it a star trick again?

Need a quick answer on advanced search parameters

I am an IT professional, but am not a regular Thunderbird user. I have an e-discovery need to search for multiple terms in a mailbox. The best solution I have found for this is to export the mailbox from Google Apps as an .mbox, and use the importexporttools extension for Thunderbird to import the .mbox.
I then have the mails in a local folder, and right-click on the folder and click on search messages. A number of filters appear, and I put in my terms, select to search within body, for Any results.
This works fine for me but I have two questions:
1. How can I search for something with an apostrophe in it?
For example, if I needed to search for:
'123abc
How would I do it? Quotes? Is there an escape character to state that that needs to be taken literally and isn't a quote or part of a command?
2. Does the search I am performing, or any other way of searching, search within attachments? In Google Apps I can search within attachments - such as text files, or Microsoft Office documents. Is this possible to do?
I searched through the help files and FAQs, but I am not sure if I am using quick filter, or global search etc.
Thanks!

There are different methods of searching.
'''Quick Filter:'''
The Quick Filter can be used to search in the selected folder. There are additional filters to refine the search.
* https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/quick-filter-toolbar
'''Global Search: '''
The Global Search can be used to search all accounts. There are additional filters to refine the search.
* https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/global-search
'''Account and folder specific Search:'''
'Edit' > 'Find' > 'Search Messages'
or
'Menu Icon' > 'Find' > 'Search Messages'
A new window opens.
At the top you will see: 'Search for messages in' and you can select the mail account or specific folder from the drop down selection. You can choose to 'Search subfolders' if required.
If you are using one search criteria (condition) or more than one but they all must be true, then select 'Match all of the following' option If you are using more than one condition, but any, not necessarily all, can be true, then use 'Match any of the following'.
example test:
Using Account and folder specific Search method.
I set it to search a particular folder.
selected: 'Body' and 'Contains' and typed: "new
click on 'Search' button
It returned only one message.
when I removed the quote mark so it only said: new (not "new)
clicked on search and it returned several possibilites.
So this worked, returning exactly as required.
When I used the 'Global Search' on same folder typing: "new
It returned a search only on : new
Quick filter method also failed to recognise the " used before new.
So in this instance of searching on: "new
neither Global Search nor Quick filter returned the best result although the message required was included in the selection returned.
The best method which worked as required was Using Account and folder specific Search method.
You can search to return any emails with attachments using 'Account and folder specific Search' method.
Quick Filter and Global filter will search on whether the word 'attachments' is in the eg: Body of email, but not necessarilly locate emails with attachments.
Global search will search to include attachment filenames.
Quick filter does not.
As far as I'm aware, you cannot search the contents of an attachment.

Hopefully simple question on keywords.

When I do a keyword search thru the drop down list and I have for example 6 words checked off, how can I clear the checkmarks in one shot. I have a lot of keywords and sometimes forget to uncheck one . Thanks

Un-checking then rechecking the checkbox to the left of the rule doesn't clear the selections made from among the keywords (as the OP puts it "clear the checkmarks in one shot") for me (3.4.5 on 10.8.5). Did this change in Mavericks?
No, it did not change.
It disables the keywords temporarily and I add a second rule. I do it sometimes, if I want to switch quickly between two sets of keyword selections and want to save the old selection.
The option-click method is cool

Ineffective Keyword Search (keyword.URL) changes in 23+

Refering to https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/963439, closing this thread is not sufficient for us users. Please let us vote about this change, or most people (like me) will downgrade or use addons that will disable this "security" feature.
Please make a better solution, or chrome or another browser will do.

The search engine that is used on the location bar and on the about:home page is the search engine that is selected in the search Bar on the Navigation Toolbar.
You can install the Keyword Search extension to specify with search engine to use for the location bar and which search engine to use for the about:home page via the Options/Preferences windows of this extension, accessible via the about:addons page.
* Keyword Search: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/keyword-search/
Another possibility is to disable keyword search (keyword.enable = false) and use a (one letter) keyword search for searching via the location bar.<br />
You can add a keyword to an installed search engine via Manage Search Engines (click the search engines icon on the search bar) and you can add a keyword to a bookmark in the Bookmarks Manager (Show All Bookmarks).
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Using_keyword_searches
That will allow to switch easily between search engines when you search via the location bar and there also is no problem with a one word search.

Keyword search in multiple folders

May be a stupid question.....
We want to have all of our photos stored on one server and then access them remotely and be able to do a keyword search to locate them later.
We did a test with several folders but when we do a keyword search we have to be in the subfolder for Bridge to recognize the keyword.
Example:
Main Folder - Photos
Sub Folder - Dan
Sub Folder - Sara
We put Dan as a keyword on all his photos and Sara on all of hers
Then on the main folder do a keyword search for Dan and nothing comes up. Go into his subfolder and it works.
We could just have one big folder with all of images loose in there, but that's not the best solution with multiple people putting images in there
What am I doing wrong.
Thanks for any insight.

You should use the find command (cmd F) for this. Select keyword as criteria and be sure to check the option 'include subfolders'.
You need to cache the folders first tlo get the most out of the speed for finding and the folders should all be in one main folder like pictures or so.
Also be aware that Bridge on a server is not always a success and keep in mind that you are in fact looking for a Digital Asset Management system and DAM is not the best feature Bridge has to offer
