Remove parent Keyword without losing the children

As an example
I set up a keyword set where I had
company > department > PR or maintenance or IT etc.
I don't really need to have dept in there can I remove it without losing
the department names which I do want
I have run into this and had just rewritten but that seems wasteful
Also can I write a list of keywords and add them without doing each individually ?
thanks

Sure. Drag the children you want to where you want them and then delete what you don't need.

  • Resizing parent movieclip without affecting the children

    Hi all,
    What's the best way of  resizing parent movieclip without affecting the children?
    I have a container movieclip that resizes depending on the stage, and when I add another movieclips to it they also resize, but I want them to keep the original size,
    is it possible?
    Many thanks

    Hi, thanks for the reply,
    I already tried this way, I put a bitmap as a background of the movieclip and made only it dependent on the stage size,
    something like that:
    mc.bg.width = stage.stageWidth; (and not mc.width, as its width will change along with the bg width)
    so when I add children to the mc, they don't change any more.
    I'm a .NET developer and new to Flash platform, and I think it would be nice from the community to make a built in property for MovieClip class -
    resizeChildren: Boolean
    I lost a whole day on this problem, because when I drew a movieclip in a designer side I saw that its background size changed along with the size change, and when I added children to it from the code the movieclip's size changed and the background stayed still, quite strange behavior for an HTML guy
    I think that it would be better to consider already drawn movieclip not to have any children yet and have its background as its part (not at(0)) and let the programmer choose later added children's resize behavior.
    thanks again

  • Removing an event without losing the original imported video

    I want to delete events that are no longer used. They are listed in the library, but attempts to delete them result in the message "No matching video" and says to go to lower left hand corner to do something, but nothing there helps me delete the event.
    After reading threads about problems with importing video and then not finding it in events, but finding it on the HD, I decided to reverse those findings and delete from the HD.
    Must I always go to the HD and find the files for the events and delete them? I did this and hope that I only deleted ones not needed for the project since many had similar names. I would feel better deleting from iMovie Library, but apparently that is not an option?

    iMovie will not let you delete events that have content that is used in a project.
    If it did then that project would no longer work.
    If you have deleted from the HD then you may have damaged your projects.

  • How can I temporarily remove games from my iPhone without losing the app data included?

    My iPhone 5 is running low on space so I plan on cleaning it out soon. I have a lot of games on my iPhone with app data included that I don't play as often. I was planning on removing these temporarily because some day I might want to play them again but I'm afraid I won't have my progress anymore. Ex: My levels conquered on Cut The Rope or my worlds on Minecraft PE.
    So is there a solution out there for me to be able to temporarily remove my games without losing their app data? All feedback is greatly appreciated and I how there is a way to do this!

    The only way to recover the data for a deleted app would be to restore from a backup made before you deleted the app.  Apps and their data are integral to eachother, so deleting one deletes the other.
    If you have a backup, you could restore from that to restore an App's data, but a restore is also an all or nothing option - the restore will restore everything to the state of the backup, not single or selective items.
    Other than that, there is no way to acheive what you wish - if you delete the app you delete its data.

  • Export iPhoto library to a different computer, without losing the keywords

    i have about 3000 family photos on my computer, how do i export my entire library to another computer without losing the keywords/ratings?
    i am trying to copy the my iPhoto library into the iPhoto library on my dads mac pro
    cheers

    quit iPhoto on both computers and connect the two computers together (network, firewire target mode, etc) - if the target computer has an iPhoto library that you want to save rename it (Dads iphoto library maybe) ad drag the iPhoto library form the pictures folder (the default location) of your computer to the pictures folder of your dad's - to switch between two libraries on a Mac launch iPhoto while depressing the option (alt) and use the select library option - or download iPhoto Library Manager to do it on the fly - and to be able to easily move photos between libraries

  • How to remove parent keywords in photos?

    Hi all,
    I have started the laborious task to keywording my photos in Aperture 3, all 35,000+. I recently imported my photos folder into Aperture and will eventually restructure the library hierarchy based on keywords.
    To help give me a kick start on keywording, I purchased the Controlled Vocabulary Keyword Catalog. This has been a big help. I still have had to add my own keywords. But, at least, I didn't have to start from scratch.
    I eventually plan to do detailed keywording as I build out my keyword hierarchy. But for now I may use more general keywords. For example, I may assign the keyword "mammal" to a set of photos. Later on, I may add the keywords elephant, bear, beaver, etc. which are all have the parent keyword of mammal.
    It would be very nice when assigning new keywords to photos for Aperture to be able to remove parent keywords from the updated photos. Is there a way to remove parent keywords from photos in Aperture either built-in or via plug-in or Apple Script?
    PS: Yes, I know that specific keywords can be manually removed for individual photos a a group of selected photos. I am looking for a way to do clean up keywords in batch instead of manually doing this. Trying to save time.
    Thanks!

    Since you have two External Definitions and you are using both in on mapping hence your scenario becomes 1:N mapping scenario and this is the reason you are getting the additional nodes in your mapping.
    so if your requirement is 1:N then whatever you are getting is correct, you can refer the below mentioned blog for help on this, But if you don't want the additonal nodes then you have to create TWO different mappings and used the external definitions seprately in each mapping.

    I hope it helps...

  • How do I move pictures off my phone without losing the pictures permanently?  Is there a way to keep the pictures in the cloud without them being on my device?

    How do I move pictures off my phone without losing the pictures permanently?  Is there a way to keep the pictures in the cloud without them being on my actual phone?  I'm concerned that the sync feature will remove the pictures from the cloud when they are deleted from my phone.
    Thanks for the help.

    Can I back up iPhoto to the cloud via some apple service (iCloud)
    No
    or do I need to use something else?  If so, any recommendations?
    An external hard disk:
    Most Simple Back Up:
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
    Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store

  • I would like to change the colour of bars in a chart without losing the underlying default texture associated with my chosen theme. None of the 3D textured fills offered in "Chart Colors" match the textured fill of the theme. Any suggestions?

    I would like to change the colour of bars in a chart without losing the underlying default texture associated with my chosen theme. None of the 3D textured fills offered in "Chart Colors" match the textured fill of the theme. Any suggestions?

    Thanks Gary, but no, that does not work. First of all, I can't select each bar individually. When I click on one bar, all three bars are selected.
    When I use "inspector > graphic" I have 5 fill options: none, color, gradient, image, tinted image. The default selection for the theme I'm using is image. What I would like to use for my charts is the same image that this theme uses for table headers. It has the same texture as the chart, but a different colour. Using anything but image or tinted image removes the texture from the fill.
    I have found I can do one of two things. I can select tinted image from the fill selections in "inspector > graphic" or I can select 2D Image Fills from "inspector > chart > chart colors". The first choice does not allow me to match the table header colour because it only allows me to apply a tint to the existing colour and adjust its opacity. The existing colour has too much influence on the fill, so I can't find an RGB adjustment that will match the table header colour. The image selections from "inspector > chart > chart colors" do not quite match the colour or the texture. Again, I can try to tint the image, but I still can't get it to match and the texture is not the same anyway.
    The image I want to use obviously exists in the software as it is an attribute of the theme, but for some reason is inaccessible. The other angle I have tried is to edit the theme, but I can't figure out how to do that either.

  • My iphone 4s been stopped and gave message that im able to reopen it after 2 million minutes please help me if there is away to reopen it without losing the data

    my iphone 4s been stopped and showed message that im able to reopen it after 2 million minutes please help me if there is away to reopen it without losing the data

    you need to restore the phone on the computer to which it most recently synched.  This will remove the passcode but you will lose any data between the last backup and the current time.  Either that or sometime in the next 2 million minutes you remember your password.

  • How do i connect my ipod to a new computer without losing the songs on my..

    I bought a new computer and I've installed itunes on it. I want to transfer all the songs on my ipod to itunes on my new computer. How can i do this without losing the songs on my ipod? Can anyone help me?

    scottydubs,
    Check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer.
    There's also another method I've seen posted. I've successfully tested this across several different Windows PCs.
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    However it appears that no playlists or any other info such as ratings/last played etc will transfer.
    If this is important to you, you may want to use other options.
    There's Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod back to the computer.

  • How can i transfer videos without losing the sound to my iPhone 3G?

    Hi
    I have bought my iPhone 3G yesterday. I have found out how to transfer music from iTunes however i can't transfer videos. I'm selecting the videos i want to transfer on the videos tab after i chose my iphone from the side menu and pressing apply. iTunes says that its syncing my iphone but it doesnt transfer the videos.
    Lately i have found out a function on the advanced menu for movies as "create iphone or ipod version". When i used that it transfered that video to my iPhone however the sound was completely lost besides that action takes too much time(around 10 mins for a 3 min video and i have a pretty strong computer).
    How can i transfer videos without losing the sound to my iPhone 3G?

    One thing I'd recommend is that you make sure the video/audio you're trying to transfer falls within the guidelines listed in the 'Video' section here:
    http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html
    What's most likely happening is that the file is not converted as such so when you try to transfer it, it's wanting to convert it but is unable to for any number of reasons.
    There's software out there that might make this easier for you but I can't recommend anything specifically.

  • Recently, I discovered I have two iCloud accounts. Is it possible to change the Apple ID from one account to match the second account, without losing the information on each account?

    Recently, I discovered I have two iCloud accounts. Is it possible to change the Apple ID for one of the accounts to match the other account, without losing the information from either account.
    thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It's a little tricky to move data from one iCloud account to another but it can be done. But what makes you think you have 2 iCloud accounts.

  • How can I move my iPhoto Library from one Mac to another without losing the comments on the individual photos in the process?

    How can I move my iPhoto Library from one Mac to another without losing the comments on the individual photos in the process? The source Macbook (OS 10.4.11 and iPhoto 6.0.6 (3.2.2.)) is with my husband in Germany, the target MacBook Pro (OS 10.8.5, iPhoto 11) is with me in Japan. Thanks for your help.

    I copied the iPhoto Library to a CD and from there to the new MacBook
    If you copied the library to the CD via the Finder it would be no different than the methods Terence suggested.  If you used the Share ➙ Burn menu option from inside iDVD you'll get a mini library that has to be accessed from the open library and the events/alubums copied into the destination library.  Not the same as the other methods.
    The Share ➙ Burn method is no longer supported with iPhoto 9 and later.

  • I want to set up my time capsule on a completely new network & location without losing the old backups. How do I do this?

    I want to set up my time capsule on a completely new network & location without losing the old backups. How do I do this? I cannot find anything in the user manual.

    The TC is very hard to just move.. it retains too much of the old network setup.. buried deep in the bowels of the firmware configuration files.. or even on the hard disk special partitions used by the TC.. invisible to you btw.. !!
    Do a factory reset and setup from scratch.
    That factory reset will have no affect on your backups.. even if you rename the TC.. not a bad things since you also want clients to respond to the new network.. simply reset TM to the new TC name and location.
    See A4 here.
    http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    Factory reset.
    The Factory Reset Gen1-4.
    Unplug your TC. Hold in reset. and power the TC back on.. without releasing reset for about 10sec. When the status light flashes rapidly; release it.
    Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel..  add no more pressure after that.
    TC will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
    No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
    Factory reset Gen 5
    Hold in reset for about 5sec until the status light flashes quickly.
    If your AirPort Time Capsule still doesn’t respond, do a similar reset to the Gen1-4.
    Unplug your AirPort Time Capsule .. hold in reset and power the TC back on.. without releasing the reset.. wait until status led flashes rapidly.
