Remove adjustment from multiple images?

I have multiple images where I used Sharpen instead of Edge Sharpen. I know I can Lift & Stamp the Edge Sharpen adjustment to multiple images but I can't seem to find a way to remove the Sharpen adjustment from all of them first. Is there a way to accomplish this? Thanks

I can add the other keyword using your techniqe, but how do I get rid of the wrong keyword without interfering with the other keywords I have already set for the images?
Keywords are metadata, not adjustments.
If you want to add or remove keywords to multiple images, without interfering with the keywords that are already set, I'd suggest to configurekeyword sets and to use the keyword controls:
For example, after designing a keyword set"Himmel" (sky) I can add or remove one of the keywords for all selected images by simply pressing a button in the keywords panel or using a key combination: for example ⌥6 to add the keyword "Halo" to all images, ⇧⌥6 to remove it from all currently selected images.
But the question is, how to remove one adjustment from multiple images, and that seems to be behaving buggy in Aperture 3.4.1, at least on my system: If I try to add an adjustment to (or remove from) multiple images, only the primary selection will be modified - and yes "Primary only is disabled ).
For example: Trying to add "Sepia Tone" to four images: I see the same on two MBPs and on my iMac with Aperture 3.4.1.

How to remove an adjustment from multiple images

Hi, i've used the lift and stamp method to apply a black and white preset to a group of images. I want to remove this adjustment from the same group of images but the only way i can see how to do it is to unclick the Black and White adjustment brick for each image individually. Is there a way to do this for a group of images?

You are absolutely right. My apologies.
What follows is what I found out this morning, just by poking around. I am not a programmer nor a program designer -- my apologies in advance for anything wrong or clumsily understood.
I believe you have stumbled across a significant design flaw in Aperture. Resetting an adjustment brick effectively removes it for some bricks, and does not for others ^1^. There is no way I know of to batch remove (or turn on/off (i.e.: check or uncheck)) adjustment bricks. There should be.
The [User Manual|http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/index.html#chapter =16%26section=9%26hash=apple_ref:doc:uid:Aperture-UserManual-91292AOV-1009540] is simply wrong about this. On the "Removing Adjustments" page it states:
To remove a single adjustment from an image
Select an image, then click the Reset button for the adjustment you want to remove.
This does not work for those adjustments which default to having an effect, such as the "Black & White" brick under discussion, "Vignette" and others.
It seems to me there should be clear distinctions between (and controls for) both the "on/off" status of an adjustment brick, and the "default/not-default" settings of the parameters within the brick.
Perhaps others can join in with further comments and provide some more light on this. As it is, I recommend sending feedback on this to the Aperture team, via the program. Use "Aperture→Provide Aperture Feedback".
^1^ There are two kinds (at least) of adjustments in Aperture: those with a "null" default and those with a "non-null" default. Null-default adjustments can be "zeroed out" -- the adjustment can be applied and have no effect. Non-null-default adjustments cannot be zeroed out -- the only way to have no effect is to turn the adjustment off (uncheck it) or remove it. There are, to the best of my knowledge, no ways to batch turn off or remove adjustments (I don't use AppleScript, but I checked the manual).

Removing keywords from multiple images when the keyword isn't in the list?

So, I know that the method for removing a keyword from multiple images is to select the images, type the keyword in the inspector and press Shift-Return.
However, that doesn't seem to work if the keyword I want to remove is not in the keyword database (i.e. it's not in the keyword HUD).
For example, I deleted the iPhoto keyword group from the keyword HUD because I decided I didn't like that. I've got a bunch of photos that still have keywords like "Beach (iPhoto)". Typing "Beach" Shift-Return does nothing. Typing "Beach (iPhoto)" Shift-Return does nothing.
Adding an iPhoto group back to the HUD and a child keyword of Beach and then Typing "Beach" Shift-Return works, but I can't believe that's how it's supposed to work.
Is that the only way to do this? I've got a lot of those old iPhoto keywords to remove and that's going to be a major pain... there must be a better way.

I don't know if this will help you or not but it contains the roots of what you would need to script the removal of unwanted and unlisted keywords.
-- script begins
tell application "Aperture"
  -- set the target to the "Smart beetles" album at the top level of the library.
  tell album "Smart beetles" of folder ""
    -- get a list of the images in the album.
    set x to every image version
    -- move through the images one by one, deleting and creating the appropriate keywords
    repeat with i from 1 to x's length
      tell x's item i
        -- Note. if the keyword is top level, then the parents value is "".
        delete (every keyword whose name is "Australia" and parents is "Location")
        make new keyword with properties {name:"Sydney", parents:"Location"}
      end tell
    end repeat
  end tell
end tell
-- script ends

Removing keyword from multiple images at the same time

None of the documented methods seem to work for me.
1     Select all the images. Go to Metadata > Remove Keyword [my keyword] - the keyword is only removed from the image that is selected in the batch - i.e the one that has the yellow border round it to show it's the active image.
2     Select all the images, enter [my keyword] in the Add Keyword field when Keyword Controls is visible and press Shift + Enter - does the same thing as 1 above (removes it from the active image only).
3     Select all the images, Shift Click on the keyword that I have in my Keyword Controls in the Control Bar - does the same things as 1 above.
So all these methods, which are supposed to work, do not work for me. The removal of the keyword is only applied to the image that has the yellow border showing it to be the currently active image in the selected batch - the remaining selected imaged still retain the keyword. I can remove it "one at a a time" but it would be great if I could find a solution as to why this isn't working.
Any ideas?
If it helps, I'm running Aperture 3.1.3 in OS X 10.6.8.
thanks
Alan

Based on the frequency with which this trips up users, the Aperture team is going to have to add a much stronger visual indication that "Primary Only" is active. Marching ants, anyone? Or a pink selection marquee?
At least in the Viewer when multiple Images are selected the thin white selection marquee is dropped when Primary Only is active. There is no such change in the Browser.

Remove keywords from multiple pictures - how to??

REMOVING keywords from multiple images doesn't work here on Aperture 2.1.1. I select multiple pictures, remove a common keyword from the list in the Metadata inspector and... only the keyword from the picture which I selected last is being removed. All other pictures still have the keyword attached. Edit > Primary Only is not 'turned on'.
What did I miss?

Go to 'Window' > 'Show Keyword Controls'.
In the text box, write the keyword that need to be removed from all selected images and press SHIFT + ENTER.
If you use the Keyword Button Sets, you can also click on the keyword to be removed while holding down the SHIFT- key.

How to remove "Blue filter" from multiple images in the History Panel

I am using Lightroom 4.3 on Windows 7 pc. I have a collection with approximately 650 images. I was working in the collection and had all the images selected. Somehow I inadvertently must have hit a keyboard shortcut that effected all the images. All of the images are negatively effected and they now look terrible. When I go to the History Panel, all the images have "blue filter" as their most recent entry. If I select one image and go back to the step before the "blue filter" everything looks fine again. My problem is I have this effect in 650 images. When I try and do the change in one image and then synch to the rest, I don't know what box to check to remove this "blue filter" that has been added to all the images. I know I can do them one by one, but with 650 images, it's a long and tedious process. Any way I can remove the "blue filter" from multiple images in a collection?
Thanks,
Matthew Kraus

If you’ve just done it, then an Undo operation would reverse things on all the images, I think. But if it took you a while to see the problem, then you might have done something to cancel the undoability.
Isn’t Blue Filter a built in LR preset that modifies the HSL settings: http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/924/cpsid_92473.html
Open the HSL panel and step back into History on one of the affected images so the effect of the Blue Filter preset has been undone and notice what HSL sliders change, and then if the 650 images DON’T already have any HSL adjustments you should be able to sync JUST the pre-Blue-Filter HSL adjustments (perhaps all zeros) to the other 650 images.

How can I remove people tags from MULTIPLE images in Organizer 13?

How can I remove people tags from MULTIPLE images in Organizer 13? The strategy for removing keyword tags does not work. It appears that keyword tags and People tags are considered something completely different in 13. I highlight multiple images, right click, and under keyword tags it says there are no keyword tags. There does not appear to be an option for people or other tags. Can anyone help? It is going to take literally hundreds of hours for me to do this one photo one tag at a time. ??

That CSS is complete nonsense. The correct way to remove borders from around links is here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/417110.
If you want to get rid of dotted lines, they are almost certainly caused by the outline property. However, outlines around links are there for a reason: it provides a visual "you are here" clue to people who navigate the web with the keyboard, either through preference or because of disability. You shouldn't remove the dotted outline without providing a different visual clue.

Is it possible to remove a keyword from multiple images?

There has to be some way to delete a keyword from multiple images, yet I can't figure it out. I know you can replace keywords via lift and stamp, but sometimes I may need to remove a keyword while leaving other different keywords in other images. If this cannot currently be done it needs to be fixed.

1. select the images you want to remove a keyword from
2. in the keyword field at the bottom type in the keyword you want to remove
3. hold down shift, and hit enter
Instead of assigning the keyword to the selected images, the keyword will be removed.

Copy adjustment to multiple images

Simple question, anyone figure out how to copy an adjustment from one image to a group of images.
I shoot in RAW so all my images need white balance applied to them, I set the one balance on one image, and found Copy adjustment. Now I want to copy this to the next 1000 pictures, all I can seem to do is do it one by one. Not good when you have a 1000 pictures to do. I see no way to select multiple images when doing edits. And when not in "Edit" mode, the paste Adjustment does not work.
Robert
P.S. -- All I can say about Photos is *** was apple thinking putting out this POS application. They had 2 good apps, a little long in the tooth, and in need of a major update. But to get rid of those and give us Photos, I am ashamed for the software engineers that had to release this POS app.

Ya, can do that, but trying to do that for 1000 images, I would end up throwing the whole computer out the window.
It is a pity, that the lifting and stamping of adjustments has been implemented in this silly, restrictive way.
Why not implement it, as it is in Aperture - a nice Lift&Stamp tool, that lets us copy metadata, titles, captions, keywords, and selected groups of adjustments to all selected photos?
You may want to write a feature request to Apple instead of smashing your Mac. The feedback form for Photos is here: Apple - Photos - Feedback

How can you find out an individual image size from multiple images on a canvas

This is probably a really really simple question but I can't for the life of me find how I can find out an individual image size from multiple images on a canvas. eg I have 3 photos i want to arrange 1 large and the other two next to it half the size. How can I edit individual image size on the canvas as when I select the image on a sperate layer I want to resize it just resizes the entire canvas and not the individual image
Thanks

I want to know they exact dimensions though. You can get them by dragging to the 0,0 corner and then reading off of the ruler scale on the sides but its fiddily as you have to zoom right in and work it out. I know in photoshop there is a ruler but is there any other way in Elements?

How to create a pdf file from multiple images ?

Dear All,
I want to create a SINGLE page pdf file from two or more page size images that are combined to make a single page pdf. Again, this question is on pdfs that are made out of several, atleast two color images and a black-and-white mask for one of them.
I have such pdf files from an unknown source (the producer is edited out) whereby there are three tiff images, obtained using the well known pdfimages extractor.
When I want to make a pdf out of tiff or png or other image formats, I right click and tell Adobe Acrobat to make a pdf.
However, I dont know how I can give a command to select say, three tif images and specify which is the mask for which and then join them in a way that I get the pdf from the composite of the two color images and a mask for one of them.
Please help me out.
I am a little familiar with the pdf structure skeleton and when necessary, fixed xref tables in one of my favorite editors. A few years ago, I also wrote a bunch of javascripts to make some annotations and needed some automation and used some itext type libraries. However, I need your help in this problem as I am now rusty and forgot some of what I studied to solve my earlier problems. This is a new problem for me. Gentle hints from you would be very nice to help me in this problem. Please specify if necessary what manual and pages to read. in the pdfspec.
Best Regards

I would gladly mention that I am working on windows platform, preferably XP.

But adding other products, for the help of an adobe products user,

Well, just add the few pdf stanzas since you are proficient on it and
I am presently a little rusty as I mentioned. Just asking a little
extra yard, not even to go an extra mile.

Well, ascii format or uncompressed format that is human readable. I
know its a binary file, but human readable ascii version of it.
I hope you can give me some stanza and various other approaches
possible so I can select or combine things for myself. I see only a
miniscule number of posts claiming to have written masks in this forum
and then with no details.

Why Bridge (CS5) does not make a PDF file from multiple images

Why Bridge (CS5) does not make a PDF file from multiple images? It used to work fine earlier, but now nothing happens when using OUTPUT for web or PDF.
I have uninstalled and installed my PS three times allready, so please not suggest that, it didn't help.
I have Creative Suite Premium, mac os x 10.6.8

Can't add or remove a keyword from MULTIPLE images

Hi:
I've tried the trick of using SHIFT-RETURN (instead of RETURN) to REMOVE a keyword instead of adding it, after you type in the keyword in the Add Keyword box of the Keyword Controls window.
However that only removes the keyword from the current active image:
even if I have multiple images selected, only the current "active" image gets updated.
(Using aperture 2.1.1 on mac os x 10.5.4.)
Any pointers on what the problem might be?
(UPDATE: same problem exists in reverse: trying to ADD keyword to multiple images using one of the keyword buttons, but only currently active image is updated, the other images in my selection are NOT updated with the new keyword.)
Regards, Strathglass
Message was edited by: strathglass

Now that I discovered the problem also exists trying to ADD keywords, I was able to search for and find the answer in these fora:
The solution:
just had to select "Edit->Primary Only" so that the check mark went away from "Primary Only"!

Can't remove keywords from multiple files

I can't believe I can't get this working.
Say I have 15 images with the same 10 keywords in every file. One of the keywords is "banana" and I want to remove it from all 15 files.
I select all the 15 files. When I do that one becomes "active" (it gets lighter gray highlight than the 14 other images).
I then go to the Keywording panel and manually remove "banana" from the list.
When I look through files to see the change all but the one that was active STILL has the "banana" keyword applied.
I have also tried selecting the 15 files and made the file without the banana keyword active and run "Sync Metadata" and removed "banana" from the "Keywords" field in the dialog box. Same thing happens. No change to the files that aren't active.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Unicorn

Simple. Don't take photos of bananas!
Actually, I believe you need to select the photos in the Grid, not in the filmstrip. Then, removing keywords should work as expected, and then when you try to remove the keyword, this keyword will be removed from all selected photos.
