Sorting but NOT importing in iPhoto5

Hello,
I need to sort about 5,500 pictures for my kid's school. They are in iPhoto at the school but the best time for me to work is late at night. I want to bring them home on a hard drive and use my iPhoto to sort and make CDs with.
Is it possible to use iPhoto to do this WITHOUT importing them into my library? I love my kids school but I don't need two years worth of pictures jamming up my computer. If I did have to import them how would I easily get rid of them after I'm done?
Thanks in advance for your help!!!

Are you running the same version of iPhoto at home as they are running at school? This is important. A newer version can read a library created by an older version, but the opposite is not possible. Also, once the newer iPhoto opens a library created by an older version, it will convert the library. The older version will no longer be able to read it once it has been converted.
To copy the iPhoto Library from the school, copy the entire "iPhoto Library" folder. This will have all photos, thumbnails, and metadata. Are you using an external hard drive for the transfer? If so, when you get it mounted on your Mac at home, select the external drive and do File > Get Info. Look near the bottom of the info box and place a check where it says "Ignore ownership on this volume." It may help prevent permissions issues when you try to work in the school's iPhoto library.
Then you can point iPhoto to the school library. Hold the Option key while you launch iPhoto. Click "Choose Library" then navigate to the iPhoto Library folder on the other drive. iPhoto will open the school library, and you can work on it from there. You can Option-launch and navigate back to your own library when you are finished.
If you can't work from the drive you use to transfer the library, then you can copy the iPhoto Library folder to your hard drive. Give it a distinctive name so that you don't overwrite your own iPhoto Library folder. Option-launch to point iPhoto to that library. When you're done, save the library folder back to the other drive and delete it from your own hard drive.
One last thing. iPhoto will let you create as many separate libraries as you want. To create a new library, Option-Launch iPhoto and click "Create Library". Be sure you give it a distinctive name. This allows you to import photos without getting them mixed in with your primary library. It makes removing those photos when you are finished with them as simple as deleting that particular iPhoto Library folder.

LR 5.6 on Mac desktop all of a sudden will not read any card from any reader but will work on my laptop. I can work on previous images but not import new ones. Even if I create a catalog on laptop and import to my desktop on a thumb drive, the images are only accessible as long as the thumb drive is inserted.

Sounds like you may need to repair the Disk Permissions on your drive where your images are stored.

Released but not imported tp orders

Hi Experts!
Is there a away to list released (approved in D/Q environment) but not imported transport orders ?
I read all posts regarding FM's around tms, but couldnt find a away to get that orders !
Thanks in advance,
Pedro

Hi,
If you want Transport Requests, then,
Check tables, E070, E07T, E070A.
Use func modile: 'STRF_READ_COFILE' to get the log for the transports.
If you are talking abt transport orders, then you need to still explore.

Subramanian

I'm actually trying to find the date i visited a site. adding columns allow the order to be sorted but not show a date. Please tell me it there's a way to see the date. the sidebar no longer has the option for date. the most recent only shows the time.

If you only see the time then that would mean that you see an entry of the current day (today).
History items from past days should have the date as well in the Most Recent Visit column.
You should be able to see this changing if you open the last 7 days folder and scroll down.

Project files creating dup assets (but not imported via scan)

I've looked at these two threads: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9147105#9147105
and
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9096958&#9096958
which sort of address my question.
I do not import media via scan. I am attempting to import project files with associated media. I import a project file and it imports the media assets as well. Here's the problem. When I then go and import another project file with many of the same assets, FCSvr creates duplicate assets, but only if I import the second project file soon after the first. I waited a week and tried it, and no duplicate assets were created. I have setup periodic scans on my Library Device which is an EIP device and which is where I'm sending the files that get imported. The scans are setup to run every 10 mins or so but don't seem to have an effect. So why does this work if I wait more than a day or so and can I manually kick off the scan or whatever process I need to setup so that I avoid getting duplicate assets.
Again, I don't want to originally import the media via scan of an EIP device b/c I want to do set some metadata fields on multiple assets but not all assets in the project.
I'm really just curious what process it is that tells FCSvr that these assets already exist in the db and filesystem and how I can manually kick it off.
Any enlightenment would be great.
Thanks.
H.

You probably have a full scan running overnight, which is what is catching all the media. The add only scan you have running every 10 minutes only get new media that is written to the EIP device.
If that doesn't seem to address your question, then try rephrasing it. It's difficult to understand from your explanation what you have running where, and what you're uploading where.

Can TMS warn of objects on released-but-not-imported requests?

I'm sure this is a common problem: Developer A makes a change to an ABAP program, releases his transport, and imports it to the QA system. Developer B makes a subsequent change to the same program (unaware of Developer A's changes), realeases his transport and imports it to QA. Developer B's QA testing completes first, and his transport is imported to the Production system. Some time later, Developer A's QA testing is completed, and his transport moves to Prod, wiping out Developer B's changes!
How do we avoid this situation? Is there a way to configure TMS so that it warns Developer B of Developer A's released-but-not-yet-imported-to-Prod transport?
I am open to all suggestions, including activating user exits in TMS, and coding the warning myself. If that's the only solution, some guidance on TMS user exits and TMS tables I would need to query would be helpful.
Thanks in advance.

Well, this thread may be 4 years old, but I have answered my own question (some time ago), and would like to share the answer with the SDN community.
I ended up activating the BADI CTS_REQUEST_CHECK. In the CHECK_BEFORE_RELEASE method I added my own code to check for "incomplete" transports for any of the objects on the transport being released. The code is pretty involved, but the basic trick is to SELECT all transports for each of the objects in the request from database tables E070, E071, and E07T, then use function TR_READ_GLOBAL_INFO_OF_REQUEST to get the details of each request to determine if it has been imported into the production system.
Once I have a list of "potentially conflicting" transports, I display it for the user in an ALV grid. I then allow the user to decide whether to go on with the release of the transport, or to cancel the release.
Cheers,
Terry

Photos in library but not imported

If the photos are in the library but are not imported then where are they and how do I find them? I keep getting a dialog box when I start iphoto that tells me that iphoto found photos in the library that were not imported and asks if I would like to import them. If I say no it imports them anyway and asks me again the next time i start iphoto so i now have over 400 copies of the same photo. So now every time I start iphoto it finds the same photo and all the copies in the library but they are not imported so I want to go find wherever they are and delete them for good so that dialog box goes away when I start iphoto...help!

shatton:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Close iPhoto, open the library package like this and look for a folder with "Import" in its title. If you find one move it to the desktop and launch iPhoto. Note if you get that message or not. If not then try importing the contents of the Import folder you moved to the desktop.
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 created 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Lvm2 on LUKS @ boot time: volume group found but not importing

I have so far succeeded in making ArchLinux boot as far as properly asking for my encrypted partition's passphrase and unlocking the encrypted partition (/dev/sda2) whererein lies the root filesystem; the encrypted partition contains a lvm2 group that has logical volumes on it for swap and root. However, instead of importing the group, it simply acknowledges that one exists;
:: Running Hook [lvm2]
Scanning logical volumes...
Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while...
Found exported volume group "crypt" using metadata type lvm2
Activating logical volumes...
Volume group "crypt" is exported

Should I just increase timeout (and how do I?), or is there something else I must enable? The last 4 of my hooks are (and I know them by heart at this point): usbinput encrypt lvm2 filesystems. I do not have
I am at my wits' end. I've tried everything from different mount points in fstab (i.e. /dev/crypt/root instead of /dev/mapper/crypt-root) to putting the encrypted partition in /etc/crypttab to changing the order of "root=" and "cryptdevice=" in the kernel parameters in menu.lst, and this is as far as I have gotten.

In https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=164267
there is a similar issue of today, but with a UUID naming instead of a label. Maybe you want to try the workaround described there with an udev-rule. If you re-typed the kernel line, please double-check it (asking that because you have lvm and LVM in there).
What's the problem with the "block" hook for you regarding the partition size?
The initramfs does not fit with the block hook? I'm asking that too, because the "block" hook includes the old "usb" one.
Is the usb-stick there at "/dev/disk/by-label/MARTINC" after boot?

Why can I drag and drop a file into A3, but not import it?

With A2+ I've scanned images (Epson flatbed) and imported them as TIFF, JPG, PNG, whatever.
Same scanner, software, and A3 refuses to import any of the above formats. However, I can drag and drop the image on a project and it works.
Any ideas? I looked for relevant threads but didn't see any immediately.
Thanks

Image appears in import pane; I can assign metadata, click "import," wait about 10 seconds and it says "import completed with errors," though the file doesn't show up in project.
I have to say it's inconsistent. I just spend 20 minutes trying to import a one scan in PNG, TIF, JPG formats, and eventually gave up and dragged it in as TIF.
Just now, I tried importing it into a different A3 project, and the TIF worked. However the PNG (which I didn't drag into A3, still gives the above error.
I can live with this as long as drag and drop works, but seems like a bug.

PS CC will open but not import the LR 5.3 file

Since upgrading to PS CC I have not been able to interface Lightroom to PS CC except as a Smart Object, any assistance would be appreciated.
This is a Windows 7 machine with 16Gb of Ram and 5 TB of storage
Thanks,
Mark

For the second problem being that the catalog is open in another application, go to the folder containing your catalog. You will find a file with the .lock extension. This is a file created by the catalog, and is automatically deleted when the catalog closes normally. Sometimes it can get left behind. You need to delete that file.
When Lightroom says that the file cannot be read, it usually means that it cannot be written to the chosen destination. This tends to be a permissions problem in your operating system. Check to make sure you have write permission for the folder you are trying to import your images to.
