Seems we're all having trouble with copyright watermarking. Any response from Adobe?

[LR 3.0 WIN] I've looked at the discussions here on the the topic, and there seem to be loads of problems and no answers. I thought LR3 was an upgrade from LR2, so was hoping the copyright marking of web images would be as good as or better, but in this respect it feels more like a downgrade.
I have loaded copyright information into the Copyright metadata field of all my (RAW) images for a web gallery. When I choose Simple Copyright Watermarking I see nothing on my large images (which are web size). Even if something were visible, there appears to be no control over its size or position. When I choose and set up a Watermark Preset, I can use fixed text or graphic, but apparently nothing that relates to the Copyright metadata. Like many people, I produce galleries with work from various authors, and each needs its own copyright marking. As things stand, I can't use LR3 for my web galleries (one of the main reasons I upgraded), and will have to continue to use LR2 for this.
Can we please have a comment from Adobe, to tell us where we're all going wrong, or a promise of an early fix?

It is a bug and I hope the bug should be fixed in the next release.
The longer term fix may rely on tokens, but I feel the better place to look is the Edit Watermarks dialog. At the moment you can choose Text or Graphic, but not a metadata field that's varied with each image.
The other day I had a need similar to Alan's, but in Export. I had images from multiple photographers, and while Simple Copyright Watermark works in Export it was useless in my case because the client wanted the watermark in the top right. I therefore had to create one watermark preset per photographer, and run one export per photographer. I did look into doing this by a plug-in but (a) Export requires links to a preset (b) you can't create watermark presets on the fly (c) text file edits to an existing watermark preset aren't picked up by LR without a restart.
Giving Edit Watermarks the option to pick up a metadata field would resolve more than the Web problem, and Simple Copyright Watermark could then be retired.

  • Hi! I'm from Brazil and I'm having troubles with subtitles. Watching movies from iTunes and Netflix, the subtitles shows yellow, too small and into gray boxes! I'm having this kind of trouble with my iPad also.

    Watching movies from iTunes and Netflix, the subtitles shows yellow, too small and into gray boxes! I'm having this kind of trouble with my iPad also.

    Solution found.
    I am a Vodafone customer and installed the Vodafone app which asks you to turn off wifi connection on installation as it needs to communicate with their servers over 3G.
    After restoring the iPad via iTunes this is the only app that I did nor re-install and seems to be too much of coincidence that while in full screen view watching films my wifi is switched off and 3G data connection is established 10 - 15 minutes into a fiilm and my data allowance gets eaten up!
    I would also get push notifications from Vodafone saying "my daily data usage was almost used" with this app installed.
    Have tested and on 3rd time watching sky go still wifi is on after 30 mins.
    DO NOT INSTALL VODAFONE APP FROM THE APP STORE.

  • I see that, it seems, everyone is having trouble with Firefox 6.0.2 and Adobe Flash 10.3. It's nice not to be alone, but is there an answer? My problem is I am continually asked to download the flash player. So how do I solve this situation?

    Whenever I open PDF it informs me that Adobe Flash Player is not found. When I check the box to add it, I am taken to Firefox and given a choice to add it to Explorer or other systems. I have chosen both in the past and added it more than a few times. My system is XP service pack 3, already installed Flash Player 10.3.181.34 and Firefox 6.0.2. In checking your web site I see that others are having this problem too. I did not see how to solve it. Is there an answer?

    Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
    Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
    Thanks again!

  • Haveing trouble with my games and i have adobe plash 11

    i dont know if it in my seting or that i have windows xp put cant play my game every since i got the xp

    Quit the game and restart the iPad.
    To quit the game - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    If that doesn't work try this.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Is anyone else having troubles with the power adaptors going from green charge light to amber?

    I have had to replace my power adaptor once before as there appeared to be a broken wire inside ..the replacement had been working fine but just recently noticed the light changing from green to amber within seconds of being connected

    The light changes from green to amber whenever the System Management controller determines that the battery needs charging. The light is green, indicating a fully-charged battery, until it is determined that the battery is less than 94% charged. That determination can take a few seconds after the adapter is connected. If the charge level is found to be below 94%, charging begins, and the light turns orange (amber) to indicate that charging is taking place. None of this signifies a problem of any kind.

  • Having trouble with camera profiles in LR3

    Anyone having trouble with accessing the camera profiles from the drop down menu in the develop module/camera calibration section of LR3? The only choice I have is "embedded." After I created a custom with passport color checker it now only offers "profile" as a choice. ANy thoughts?
    Thanks,
    Tom

    Okay, that is different.  I have seen a similar discussion in another thread (I think) in the Lightroom forum.  It might have been this one.  It seems to have been specific to Canon cameras.  I don't have an answer.  Just one question, however.  Are you using standard CR2 files, or are you using the sRaw format?  As I was reading the other thread, I was wondering if that could have been part of the problem.

    having trouble with ringtone and ringback tones ..i followed all directions for home sharing.  does anyone have a real solution???

    Hello sairdoor123
    From what I understand the issue seems to be with the hardware, obviously since the phone was dropped that could cause undesired results.
    If all your data is backed up to a computer then I would recommend doing a hard reset: http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=887
    If a hard reset is done then I would caution you with the following choices:  ( Should I have the audio circuit repaired as suggested by one of the repair guys? Or would that be risky?) - I would say this is risky because the person repairing the devise could easily sodder the wrong part of the hardware.
    If you really do think repairing the circuit board is more cost effective then I would recommend researching all your possible repair shops before doing any work. Make sure they have the credentials and experiences.
    Hopefully things work out for you.

  • I am also having trouble with my cursor freezing after installing Mavericks. Never did it before. I called tech support at Apple and they had me restart computer and mouse together from a complete shut down. So far has seemed to work.

    I am having trouble with my cursor freezing between applications after installing Mavericks. Called Apple on my 3 year warranty and opened a case. They suggested a complete shut down of computer and turning off mouse. Then a reboot and turn on mouse. So far iit has seemed to work. Hope this continues??
    Hope it helps others.

    I think you can solve your problems by removing your AppleID email address from BOTH the Messages setting on your iPhone and the iMessages settings on your Mac.
    On iPhone:
    Settings > Messages > iMessage > Dissabled
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > touch the "(i)" < touch "Remove This Email"
    On Mac:
    Open "Messages" application
    Click "Messages menu > Preferences
    Click "Accounts"
    Select your AppleID account
    Under the "You can be reached for messages at" settings, uncheck your AppleID email address and your phone number
    Then uncheck the "Enable this account" setting
    And lastly, ask all of your friends with iPhones to delete all iMessage conversations (blue bubbles) in their entirety.
    To test, send a friend a new text using their phone number (not their email address) and watch the color of the bubble.  If it's green then you are using SMS.

    Having trouble with dreamweaver cs 6 spry tabbed panels, all content in each tab showes through like it was all created on one page, plus mouse over doesnt work on them.

    ive been looking for the answer for 4 months with no success.
    Hope a fellow dreamwever-person can help
    Thanks Rick

    You called it: your links to the SpryAssets are linking to your hard drive, not to the files within the folder on the server.
    Correct these links:
    <script src="file:///C:/Users/work/Desktop/Sites/SpryAssets/SpryTabbedPanels.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <link href="file:///C:/Users/work/Desktop/Sites/SpryAssets/SpryTabbedPanels.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
    And you should be good to go.
