Sidecar XMPs: when to use?

I think I selected for Lightroom changes info to be saved with the Catalog only.
Now when I copy my Raw files to a CD for archiving, there is no Lightroom info included. If I go back later to revisit a Raw image, I have to reprocess it completely.
How can I keep the Lightroom change info with Raw files where ever they go?
I can't find a switch for this.
I use Lightroom to convert raw images and to export *.JPGs and *.PSDs to permanent storage folders. I do not continue to track all images with Lightroom. I initially import Raw images into "In-Process" temporary folders and then archive to DVDs.

I still don't know how to use side car files.
The limitations don't seem to be a problem and the advantages seem good to me.
A web article said to go to Preferences and turn on "write changes into XMP". It was written in April 2007, before Ver 1.2.
Has it changed since then?
My Preferences do not mention XMP.
Where do I find it?

Sidecar .xmp files ignored when importing all files from a card

Hello,
I've noticed what I think is a bug. This is my workflow:
* I shoot pictures as Raw (in .nef format)
* I run a program on them to add sidecar .xmp files with some GPS metadata
* When I import the .net into lightroom I click on "import" on the left panel.
* The import dialog box shows up, with 2 choices : import all pictures from card / select which images to import
1) If I choose to manually select the files to import, the XMP metadata are successfuly taken into account (I choose to convert the NEF to DNG and the GPS data are well imported)
2) But if I choose "import all pictures from card", the GPS metadata are ignored.
Can you advise, please?
Thanks!

Are the XMP sidecars actually on the card?

4.1.1 SDK Problems with missing xpacket tags in sidecar XMP files

The current 4.1.1 SDK has problems with sidecar XMP files that don't have the xpacket headers and trailers, i.e:
<?xpacket begin='ï»¿' id='W5M0MpCehiHzreSzNTczkc9d'?>
<?xpacket end='w'?>
is missing. Now, unfortunately Adobe Bridge CS2/CS3 does not export these xpackets in sidecar XMP files.
The standard, http://www.aiim.org/documents/standards/xmpspecification.pdf, is also very vague about it all:
● Write external metadata as though it were embedded and then had the XMP Packets
extracted and catenated by a postprocessor.
The grammar is strange(past tense had) and the spec implies that the xpacket should be extracted and again catenated... Someone should review this document and clearly state if xpacket statements should be in sidecar files or not. I suspect myself that they should be there, but the standard is very vague.
Anyway, there are two places in the SDK code where changes might be needed:
XMPFiles::Initialize has XMP_Asserts in case the xpacket header/trailer is missing, but the underlying assert is only active in debug builds.
XMPScanner::PacketMachine::FindNextPacket () also has in its truth table the assumption that the xpackets exist.
There could be even other places in the code that assumes that the xpacket tags are present in all files, which includes text XMP sidecar files.
Anyway.
a) Shouldn't bridge export the xpacket tags? Same with any other application?
b) If the spec is vague, then the SDK should not assume that the xpacket tags are present.
Any comments? Has someone already fixed this issue as I suspect a lot of apps using the the XMP SDK would break concerning reading XMP sidecar files? Thx, Kent

I was able to work around the problem by creating a mapped view of the .xmp file (this creates an array in memory backed by the file on disk, so there's no need to read the file into a separate internal buffer), and constructing the SXMPMeta object directly from the buffer. (The ctor for that class calls ParseFromBuffer, so this is the same thing as was suggested by other messages in this thread.)
It seems that Adobe needs to do one of these things:
(1) say that Bridge CS3 has a bug, and agree that Bridge CS3 should include a proper xpacket header when writing xmp sidecar files
(2) say that the XMP Toolkit has a bug, and that the SDK should be able to parse sidecar files without an xpacket header, and agree to fix the toolkit
(3) say that Bridge CS3 and the XMP Toolkit behave as expected, but then provide a sequence of steps by which users of the XMP Toolkit are expected to read xmp sidecar files written by Bridge CS3
Does Bridge CS4 write an xpacket header to the xmp sidecar files?
Maybe what I could do is create a custom file handler for .xmp sidecar files, so I could use the SXMPFiles for everything, instead of having to special-case .xmp files.
My needs are pretty modest though, and it might be just as simple to use the MS DOM-based XML parser for load the xmp sidecar file. I bet I could get the data I need (only the "Rating" for now) using a simple XPath expression.

Sidecar XMP file question.

Greetings all, I have some questions regarding XMP sidecar files; I am creating a complete API to access and create metadata, including XMP (I'm not basing myself on any SDK). 1. A sidecar xmp file must have an extension of .xmp, right, but does it replace an existing extension, or simply add to it: For example, the sidecar filename for testit.exe should be testit.xmp or testit.exe.xmp? If it is the latter case, would it not cause problems with CDFS ISO 9660 Level 1 file systems (8+3 limit)? 2. Does this require the xpacket block? It would seem to be illogical to me, but still, it is not quite clear in the specification. My sidecar XMP generator immediately starts with the x:xmpmeta block (after the <?xml .. standard xml header). Is this wrong or correct? Thanks!

1. The convention so far has been to replace the extension to .xmp - ex. testit.xmp 2. Here is a sample of a side car file that was created for a RAW file: <x:xmpmeta xmlns:x='adobe:ns:meta/' x:xmptk='XMP toolkit 3.0-28, framework 1.6'> <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf='http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#' xmlns:iX='http://ns.adobe.com/iX/1.0/'> <rdf:Description rdf:about='' xmlns:crs='http://ns.adobe.com/camera-raw-settings/1.0/'> <crs:Version>2.0</crs:Version> ..... I believe it is done in this way so that when the user selects the RAW file in the Photoshop CS filebrowser the xmp info can be seen in the metadata pane and in the file info dialog.

Sidecar .xmp for a DNG file ...

Photoshop CS6 Reference says that "When a DNG file is processed in Camera Raw, the settings are stored in the DNG file itself, but they can be stored in a sidecar XMP file instead." How can I store the changes made to a DNG file in a sidecar file? Thanks.

Complete paragraph: "When a camera raw image file is processed with Camera Raw, the image settings are stored in one of two places: the Camera Raw database file or a sidecar XMP file. When a DNG file is processed in Camera Raw, the settings are stored in the DNG file itself, but they can be stored in a sidecar XMP file instead. Settings for TIFF and JPEG files are always stored in the file itself."
And it adds at the end of the same page: "If you want to store all adjustments to DNG files in the DNG files themselves, select Ignore Sidecar “.XMP” Files in the DNG File Handling section of the Camera Raw Preferences dialog box."

Batch RAW conversion: no sidecar XMP files

When I open and save a RAW file as a JPEG by hand, I always get a XMP file that tells me the RAW settings. Actually the XMP is generated as soon as I "open" the RAW file in PS. When I do the exact same steps in a batched action, no XMP files result. I just painfully batch converted 4000 RAW files, no XMP files showed up. Ran some test cases, manually doing the steps result in a XMP file, batching them doesn't. Why doesn't PS generate the XMP files?
One thing I worry about is what RAW settings were applied to my files. Without the XMP files it's very hard to check. Some settings, like noise reduction and saturation, are pretty subtle and hard to determine w/o a "with" and "without" comparision. In theory the XMP files would let me detemine exactly what settings were applied.
This is for Windows XP, CS3, latest RAW update downloaded a few days ago.

For the case of DNG files with both internal XMP and a sidecar file, Camera Raw picks the file with the newer OS modification date/time.
Adobe does not support sidecar XMP files for JPEG or TIFF files.
It is fairly trivial to write computer programs to exact XMP from files, so yes, it is "possible". You can save the XMP out of any opened file in Photoshop CS3's get info dialog in advanced mode (see the save button at the bottom).

AVG Secure Search appears when I use Google Search from my Home page only.

My home page is the Firefox default page with the Google searchbar. I like getting occasional messages from Firefox when I log in so I don't want to change my homepage. However, when I use the searchbar ''on my homepage only'', I get the unsatisfactory AVG Secure Search results.
UPDATE: I now realize all the troubleshooting information I included in my original question appears under the "More System Details" link next to the question, not in the body of the question. I have copied it here to make it easier to see what I have already done to try to solve the problem, as well as describe the one clue I have that may be relevant:
I have tried all the fixes on various threads, but my about:config is now pristine (no avg or isearch mentions; keyword.url is default). Closest solution is that at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/866327 , which requires changing my home page.
Oddly, AVG Secure Search is ''not'' a problem when I use the Google toolbar or search from the Google website, only when I use the search bar that appears on my home (start) page. This is true even when I return to my home page--if I search from the Google search bar in the middle of the page, I get sent to AVG Safe Search. (isearch.avg.com).
I read in one thread a suggestion to delete my chromeappsstore.sqlite file in my Profile folder. As promised, Firefox created a new one when I restarted it; however, the search bar in the middle of my home home page did not work at all. Tried this three times before restoring my original.
I do not have an application that will open a sqlite file, but I tried doing so in Excel and found a cell containing the following:
emoh.:moz-safe-aboutsearch-engine{"name":"AVG Secure Search","searchUrl":"http://isearch.avg.com/search?cid={7A3C25A0-E345-4507-AA31-D98F596A81A9}&mid=c48135235ba247d18ac1d14b344db451-addd29eab2809954d5abdf0b991a5b911a297819&ds=is015&lang=en&v=10.0.0.7&pr=sa&d=&sap=dsp&q=_searchTerms_"}
I have no clue what that means, but it is the only thing I can find related to Firefox that still mentions AVG and isearch.avg.com.
At this point my best guess (but it is a guess) is that the chromeappsstore.sqlite file is a key to the complete solution, but I do not have enough knowledge to go beyond and address it. I appreciate any help you anyone can offer.

Here is the way to get rid of the problem once and for all:

How to set up my airport extreme to share my net connection. i have a ethernet cable from my isp which when i use in my mac, i have to enter username

I access net through ethernet cable from my isp. so i just plug in the cable in my mac and in the browser it put the username & password. now i want to use my airport express to create a wireless network so i can access net from ipad and mac simultaneously. when i use airport express both my mac & ipad gets connected to airp exp but each of them ask for isp's username and password. i can only login from either one of them and access net in that one only. Pls advice???

To allow your Mac to "see" the HDD attached to an AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) that is configured as a bridge, just be sure to assign a static Private IP address to the AEBS. By default the AEBS is a DHCP client and will get a dynamic IP address from the upstream router that is acting as the DHCP server. Since this address can change over time, it would make it more difficult for network clients to find the HDD.

The optimizer has, well, optimized out the row_number because you never refer to its value in the outermost query.
sql>select deptno, cnt, row_number() over (order by cnt desc) rn
2    from (select deptno, count(*) cnt
3            from emp
4           group by deptno);
   DEPTNO       CNT        RN

       20         5         2
       10         3         3
3 rows selected.
-- here because we include rn in the outermost query,
-- the results are still ordered based on the analytical function result

3            from (select deptno, count(*) cnt

       30         6         1
       20         5         2
       10         3         3
3 rows selected.
-- but if we don't include rn in the outermost query,
-- the optimizer leaves out the window sort and the results are in a different order

Photos loaded directly onto ipad air do not show up on PC anywhere when synced using itunes

Photos loaded directly onto ipad air using Apple camera connection kit, do not show up on PC anywhere when synced using itunes

They won't show in iTunes (iTunes is only used to copy photos to a device, not copy them off), but you should be able to copy them off either manually via My Computer (the iPad should show as a camera) or via windows camera wizard or windows live photo gallery depending upon your OS version.

I am changing from Word to Pages. I have created my custom template with all my styles etc and that is what comes up when I go for a New Document. Fine. How do I get it to use the same Custom Template when I use Pages to open a Word document?

I am changing from Word to Pages. I have created my custom template with all my styles etc and that is what comes up when I go for a New Document. Fine. How do I get it to use the same Custom Template when I use Pages to open a Word document?

The template is a document in itself, it is not applied to an existing document whether it is a Pages document or a Word document converted to a Pages document.
You would need to either copy and paste content, using existing styles, or apply the styles to the converted Word document.
You can Import the Styles from an existing document and those imported Styles can be used to override the current document's styles:
Menu > Format > Import Styles
The process is simplified if the styles use the same names, otherwise you will need to delete the style you don't want and replace it with the one that you do want when asked, then the substitution is pretty straightforward.
