  • On-demand scanning for only new files or scan a list from a file

    I run a free to use file hosting service and with it are the risks of abuse for malware. In the past I've used ClamAV with a bash script to search for any files that are as old or newer than X minutes, usually about 5 minutes and put the found files listed line by line in a file and ClamAV will scan those files only. Put on a Cron for every 5 minutes to run. ClamAV's detection is pathetic though and has not caught most of the stuff it has needed to find. So switching over to Sophos Linux, it has done a great job already detecting multiple files of the uploaded files folder that ClamAV had already missed in the past. It takes just 3 1/2 minutes for it to scan through 3500+ files and archives totaling 17 gigs. I have it set to scan the whole directory every 5 minutes. This takes a while, even if it is under 3 1/2 mins. Ideally I want Sophos to only scan new files so it can be set to run every minute, or every 5 minutes, whether that be from it's command line or via it reading a file list. This way newly uploaded malware is taken care of as fast as possible for the security of the end users.  Here is the script file I use for Sophos already: #! /bin/bash

    Sophos has 'decision caching' to speed up files that haven't changed since the last scan, while also allowing files to be re-checked against the latest threat definitions.

  • Scan in mutiple photos in one file, can I crop multiple photos...

    at same time?
    I don't know how to scan multiple photos as distinct file. I scan 5-6 pics it comes out at one file that I import into iPhoto. While it's very easy to crop each photo out of the file, I have to import the file as many times as there are photos
    to crop.
    I hope I've been clear. Is there a smarter way to work. I don't see a way to scan
    the 5-6 pics as different files in my scanner software.
    Thanks

    Joshua:
    Vuescan is a 3rd party scanning application which can do batch scanning but is a little more difficult to set up. It works with most scanners.
    If you have a Canon scanner you can scan in multiple photos at one time and have the scanner software crop, not as close as I'd like, each one individually and present to you in the editor of your choice or the one that comes with it.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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 written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), 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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Optimize scanned PDF for ONLY PDF FILES in a folder?

    Using the Action Wizard to batch optimize scanned documents.  When selecting a folder, how can we only optimize the PDF files and skip over conversion of all other file types (JPG, TIF, DOC)?  Currently it is converting all files in the folder to PDF, but we only want to optimize the ones which are already PDF.
    Thanks!
    ATC

    Figured that would be the only choice... I will use Robocopy to copy the entire folder structure and only *.pdf files, then optimize, then copy back and overwrite existing files.  Hopefully Adobe will have a way to filter filetypes in their next release.

  • ? on photo - file found but only linking that one photo even when the box is checked.

    In Lightroom Library, a set of photos all have ?? question marks.. SO when I begin to link to the file, it is not linking the whole folder.. but only one at a time.  What can I do?

    what happened was files were moved outside lightroom, and its having trouble locating them...
    Locate missing photos
    Sometimes the link between the catalog and a photo breaks. When that happens, Lightroom displays a Photo Is Missing icon in image cells in the Grid view and the Filmstrip. In the Develop module, Lightroom indicates that the photo is offline or missing. Links between a catalog and its photos can break for a variety of reasons, including because photos are moved in the operating system instead of from within Lightroom, or because photos are stored on an external drive that is offline. If the drive is offline, turn it on.
    (Optional) In the Library module, choose Library > Find Missing Photos to display missing files in the Grid view.
    Click the Photo Is Missing icon in a thumbnail cell in the Grid view.A dialog box opens and displays the last known location of the missing photo.
    Click the Locate button, navigate to where the photo is currently located, and then click Select.
    (Optional) In the Locate dialog box, select Find Nearby Missing Photos to have Lightroom search for other missing photos in the folder and reconnect them as well.
    you are going to want to do the #4, to reconnect all of them.

    Ps. if that doesn't work, trying synching your folders:
    Synchronize folders
    When you synchronize folders, you have the option of adding files that have been added to the folder but not imported into the catalog, removing files that have been deleted, and scanning for metadata updates. The photo files in the folder and all subfolders can be synchronized. You can determine which folders, subfolders, and files are imported.
    In the Folders panel, select the folder you want to synchronize.
    Choose Library > Synchronize Folder.
    In the Synchronize Folder dialog box, do any of the following:
    To import photos that appear in the folders but have not been imported in the catalog, select Import New Photos. If you select Show Import Dialog Before Importing, you can specify which folders and photos are imported.
    To remove photos that have been deleted from the folder but not from the catalog, select Remove Missing Photos From Catalog. If this option is dimmed, no files are missing. (You can choose Show Missing Photos to display the photos in Grid view.)
    To scan for any metadata changes made to the files in another application, choose Scan For Metadata Updates.
    Click Synchronize.
    If the Import Photos dialog box opens, specify the folders and files you want to import, and then click Import.

  • Best way to scan in old photos? Service? Feed scanner?

    I would like to bring a large number of film prints into my digital life. I cannot bear the thought of using a flatbed scanner for several hundreds of photos (if not more). I figure I have two choices: 1) a service I mail photos to and they send me digital files or 2) buy a scanner that has a feeder. Would appreciate suggestions on either account. If a service, appreciate any recommendations. If a scanner, any suggestions on make/model would be greatly appreciated as it seems there is not much info on which scanners (or multi-function printers) perform that task well. Many thanks!

    I am one of those people who has scanned in thousands of photos ! I have about 15000 photos, and probably about 9000-10000 are scanned in. I actually DID use a flatbed scanner. Wore out the first one, an HP so that it began to burn in the flat ribbon band lines. Got an inexpensive Epson perfection 2480
    http://pcworld.about.com/news/Jul262004id117057.htm that can scan photos and slides and have been very happy with it. It is an older model, but I am sure there is a comparable newer model.
    It actually went much faster than I had thought. I placed 4-6 photos on the scanner at one time, depending on the size of the photos. First did a preview to see all of them, then did the scan of each one onto my desktop. When the desktop appeared full, I imported them into iPhoto Libraries according to the years they were taken.
    I DO have all of my photos in photo albums, labeled on the inside front cover what time span the album encompasses, so it was quite easy to keep the photos in the correct order.
    The Epson has a color corrector that I used if it appeared that the photo had become discolored. You might give it a try before you just turn over your photos to a service. What if they lose them? Mix them up with someone else's? Just be sure the service is reliable, and not exhorbitantly expensive. Have you seen this?:
    http://www.scanmyphotos.com/ That looks quite good! I may consider doing that with some of my slides, as this is just too much to do myself.
    I have not used a feeder type of scanner, but if I have to sit there and make sure the photos are feeding correctly, I may as well just be scanning them individually. See these for reports of problems/issues/use of them:

    Technically, probably the best method is to scan negatives because you can get a more clear image. Although I have most of the negatives of my snapshots, the negatives are not in any particular order and are more difficult to visualize to determine if I even want to include a particular one. I decided it was too much trouble to try to oranize the negatives, and just went for scanning in the photos.
    There was a terrific article last year about scanning photos, from MacWorld:

  • Blurry photo files in 2 of my most recent Collections folder

    I'm using Windows 8 and Lightroom 5. This morning when attempting to click on the Lightroom icon I received a message that Lightroom could not be found. Once I finally got Lightroom open I have found that all of the photo files in 2 of my collections are blurry while in the Library Module. When moving to the Develop Module it indicates that the folder could not be located for the photograph. All of my files are kept on an external hard-drive and only these 2 collections are blurry and they are the most recent photo files that I have worked with.

    I restored the macbook from a time machine backup. Everything seems to work fine. Disk scans don't show errors and the weird sounds during shutdown are gone...
    I still don't really trust the hard drive, though.

  • Duplicate photo files  being created in Bridge

    I have a Mac Book pro with sno leopard and use CS5 and am having weird issues with photos from my canon 5d mk II and 7 d. Bridge is creating duplicate photo files after I download them. Sure adobe told me to purge my cache , ok, that works but it just starts re creating them again?

    You can set up a scan when you create a new device in System Preferences:
    go to System Preferences --> FCSVR Pref pane --> Devices Pane and then choose create new device ("+" sign and the Device Assistant will appear. You choose the type and then you can set up a Full or Add only Scan here.)
    Other option is to set up a Scan via the Administration window in the Java Client:
    This is not as easy since there is no Device Assistant.
    go to Admin window in Java Client --> Response and then create a new 'Scan' response on the device you want to scan. 'Scan Productions' is something different, maybe you want that instead, I don't know. Depending on how you set it up, it can create a Production in FCSVR catalogue for each folder or subfolder and that media will be scanned and placed into that Production in FCSVR catalogue.
    Anyways, once you create the Scan Response, go to Admin pane --> Schedule. Create a new schedule and add the 'Scan' response you just created to the "Response List" section. Don't forget to check "Enabled"...can't tell you how many times I created the response but then forgot to enable it.
    Once you scan the assets, they are in the FCSVR catalogue with clip proxies, thumbnails and posterframes. If you have existing FCP projects that use this media, you will want to make sure the media in the FCP project is connected to that same media that was scanned. When you upload the FCP project, it will not dup the assets, just add the FCP project to it, unless you didn't set the EIP device correctly. If you look in Search All Jobs, the only thing that should be generated at this point it Edit Proxies (if you enabled them) and Elements.
    Now my question to you is the same as Chris' question here http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9147105#9147105. How did you set things up so far? What is your workflow? Where is your media?

  • Problems with re-naming photo files

    Hi there, could anyone please give me some advice on a problem I am having with re-naming photos?
    I have scanned over 2000 photos onto my mac. I scanned a batch of a couple of hundred at a time, and as I went along I would copy each batch into iphoto and then trashed them off the hard-drive (with hindsight I'm not entirely sure why I did that!). I am now trying to back them all up on to an external hard drive and have run into problems. The file names they saved as are for example img001, because of the number of photos I scanned I have about five photos in iphoto all with the same file name, and when I drag them onto the hard drive to copy them I am of course getting the message pop up that says I already have a file of that name on the hard drive and do I want to replace it, which of course I don't.
    So...... I went through all the photos and renamed them so they were all different. However, although they show with new titles, when I click on "Show Extended Photo Info" in the Photos menu, the file name shows as the original one it was scanned as. I have then tried right clicking the photo and going to "Show file", and have renamed the photo there. However it still shows the same file name back in the extended photo info, and when I try to copy it on to my hard drive I get an error message saying "The items on the Clipboard cannot be pasted to this location. One or more of the items may have been deleted or are no longer available".
    This is driving me insane!!! Please can someone help me!?

    several things most of which have to do with what iPhoto is and how it works
    iPhoto is a database program and you must not every make any changes to the contents or structure of the database (the files) except using iPhoto - never via the finder or other programs
    as a database you never use the internal structure but use the database tools to access the photos
    The only way to backup up the database is to copy it intact as a single entity to a different drive - you can not back it up in pieces
    To backup the photos or move them to a different machine you export them from the database (file menu ==> export) and one of the options at that time is to assign new file names
    when I drag them onto the hard drive to copy them I am of course getting the message pop up that says I already have a file of that name on the hard drive
    So now that you understand how iPhoto works you see that there is a simple solution to this - simply export the photos and use the rename option in the export to assign sequential names to them
    I went through all the photos and renamed them so they were all different
    If you did this by typing a new title below the photo then you simply export using the use title as file name option
    I have then tried right clicking the photo and going to "Show file", and have renamed the photo there
    This is using the finder to modify the contents of the iPhoto library and will corrupt your library and make it unusable - to use it you will have to restore it as it was - your backup is the easiest

  • I am scanning black/white photos and making a few adjustments - retouching and cropping.  The photos then turn red.  Why?

    I am scanning black/white photos and making a few adjustments - retouching and cropping.  Some (only some) of the photos turn red. Why and what do I do to correct this problem?

    This is because we've scanned the photo's using grey scale. 
    Through further searching I found a solution thanks to Terence.  You can convert your already scanned photos to the required sRGB format by doing the following:
    Open Automator.  Select your photo's that need converting from the file and drop into Automator.
    You can create an Automtor workflow to assign an sRGB profile to images.
    The variable you want is 'Apply ColorSync Profile' to images and then select sRGB from the drop down.
    Hope this helps! 

  • How do I find a photo file in the Finder + future migration question

    Being a recent Mac convert, I am just getting used to the 'complete control' approach to photo management that iPhoto has. I'm used to knowing where my photos physically reside on my computer - this is useful for doing things like uploading photos to a website for example. How do I actually find a particular photo in the Finder (or even give photo files recognisable names, as opposed to whatever automated naming system iPhoto uses)?
    A followup question to this is, what happens if I ever want to migrate my photos out of iPhoto one day to another application or even back to a PC (God forbid - just my paranoia about being forced to use a particular system forever kicking in here!) - is there a way to do this, and keep photo modifications etc? Or once I start using iPhoto, have I made my decision for life??
    My apologies if this has been asked before, I couldn't find anything in the forum when searching.

    I hope you've a notebook and pen, but you've asked a lot of questions:
    I'm used to knowing where my photos physically reside on my computer
    You photos are stored in the iPhoto Library at your Pictures Folder. This is a Unix style Package Folder that very easy to see inside: right click on it and choose show package contents. A finder window opens with the library exposed.
    Here's how the library is laid out:
    In this folder there are various files, which are the Library itself and some ancillary files. Then you have three folders
    Originals are the photos as they were downloaded from your camera or scanner.
    (ii) Modified contains edited pics, shots that you have cropped, rotated or changed in any way.
    iPhoto always preserves the original file, all operations are carried out on a copy.
    (iii) Data holds the thumbnails the the app needs to show you the photos in the iPhoto Window.
    And here's a warning: It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss.
    this is useful for doing things like uploading photos to a website for example
    No it's not. Don't surf the iPhoto Library. The idea with iPhoto is that you do everything via the iPhoto Window or media browsers:
    So, to access pics use one (or more) of the following:
    There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    To upload to MySpace or any site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser. Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
    iPhot doesn't name the files, those names are given by your camera. You can add titles in iPhoto and if you use the File -> Export command there's a facility there to name the resulting file (it'll be a copy - remember what I said about all operation being done on a copy...) with the title.
    Do not rename files in iPhoto, That comes under the heading of making changes in the iPhoto Library Folder and alters the path to the files. If you do, iPhoto will lose track of the file. But the truth is there's simply no need to. However, you can rename the files before importing them if you like.
    Migrating is really easy. You've seen the layout of the Library above. The originals are all there, in the originals folder, the Modified versions in their folder. If you want to have only the most recent versions of pics, then export them from iPhoto to a folder on the desktop.
    By all means post back if you need more.
