'Tags' in Organizer

I'm running Organizer. When I've selected and assigned a group of pictures to a category, should a 'tab' sybol remain on the picture in 'Media' so we know that the photo's been catalogued?

Hi,
When you apply tags to an image, you may see icons underneath the thumbnail like this
If there are only a few tags, then it will be like under the yellow arrow - if there are many tags then it will look like under the green arrow. If you hover the mouse over the icon, it will show you the tags.
If you don't see any information underneath the images, ensure that Details is checked in the View menu. If you still can't see the information then try moving the zoom slider (bottom right) to the right to increase the size of the thumbnails.

Creating tags to organize photos in PSE 12

I just got a new computer and installed PSE 12. I want to organize my photos with my own tags, and can't find a way to do that with the new program.
Also, I don't want to send my photos to the cloud.
HELP!!!

Dear nealeh:
Thanks for the advice, and hope that I can find the tools I used to use to nicely. I'll report back once I have tried your suggestions.

You need to spend some time with Help> Getting Started. You can create many categories and sub-categories in your tags, the Organizer fixes you refer to are still there - click Instant Fix at bottom right, and if you convert your existing catalog then all those existing tags will come across with them (although People, Places & Events are handled differently from 8 & 9. And you don't have to store anything in the cloud if you don't want to.
Cheers,
Neale

Matching tags in Organizer 9

Hi,
I can not get Organizer 9 to show only the matching photos when clicking on a name tag. When I apply a tag to a specific photo within a group of photos stored in the same file, or when I attach different tags to a set of photos, Organizer shows all the matches which I dont care to see...
Can not find anything in Edit/Prefereces and Options (close to Show all) that would correct the problem... in Preferences can not find the instruction «Show closely matching set for searches»
I have the French version of Adobe Organizer.
Thank you and Merry Christmass

Unable to add Keyword Tags in Organizer PSE 9

I am beyond frustrated at this point. I have never run across a more buggy program than PSE9 (or 8 for that matter). I am particularly having trouble with the organizer in PSE 9. I have spent that last day or so tagging a catalogue of about 2000 photos when suddenly the organizer froze up. I killed it and restarted. Then it wouldn't even load. So I thought to load another catalogue to see if that worked. It loaded up just fine. I switched to the catalogue I had had the problem with and PSE pretty much shut my computer down at that point. So, I restarted the computer, loaded up the organizer and actually got it to open the catalogue. I ran a repair on it. It said that it had fixed some errors. Great, I thought, everything is fine. Well, no, it wasn't. Now whenever I attempt to add a keyword tag, delete a keyword tag, or even add a caption, the organizer just gives me an error. It is only happening on this particular catalogue. I have repaired it, optimized it, and even regenerated the thumbnails. I always get an error when I try to edit anything. I can view the pictures just fine. I can open them up from the organizer into the editor just fine. I just can't delete, add captions or keyword tags at this point. If I have lost the all the work I did last night and today tagging these photos, then I am going to be mighty mad. If anyone has any suggestions, then please let me know. I don't want to think that I have wasted time, and most of all, money on this program. Thanks.

Software to tag and organize a growing raw footage library

Hi all: I am working on some projects and my group has an increasing amount of raw video footage. Are there software solutions that let me tag and catalogue my raw footage and also historical content that has been made digital? What is the best? I have a large amount of space on network drives available. Would it be better to have a large local FW or SATA drive? What solution would be best for a windows user to also be able to access the files over that network drive?
THanks for the info!

This was very helpfull, everything is alright now. Thank you!!

PSE 9 (Mac) Organizer - Category Tag shows no pictures

I have tagged all my photos and have my heirarchy set. If I click on an upper level tag, the organizer automatically "clicks" all the subordinate tags, and shows me all the pictures for those tags.
However, if I click a category tag, The organizer automatically "clicks" the subordinate tags as above, but tells me there are no matching photographs.
Shouldn't I see all the photos in that category?

Thanks,
I am in Thumbnail view, and I checked all of the items in the link you provided. I looked closer, and found that it is only the People category that has problems. I moved some of the sub-categories to another temp holding category, and found that the problem disappeared when some combinations of sub-categories were moved. But when all of the subcategories were moved to the new holding category, then the new one failed as well. So there must be something about the specific set of circumstances in my library that is causing this to occur. I think I'll just forget it for now and see if the problem still exists in the next release.

"Elements Organizer" automatic tag

When I use the Share to Flickr feature in the Organiser portion of PSE9, it automatically enters the tag "Elements Organizer" in the tags area. Is there a way to turn this off? Not that much of a big deal, but it would be nice to not have to delete it all the time.

Hi denny
open Organzier preferences or command K on macs
click on media analysis
turn off auto analyser function.
restart program

Changing ID3 tags and replacing tra

I'm playing with my new Xtra and enjoying it. I will want to jigger many of the tags to organize the genres and artists better.
) The software stored the albums (as I requested) under Artist/Album. If I shift an album under a different artist name, I assume it will not automatically change the tags for the artist. (For instance, I have a few "Elvis Costello" and a few "Elvis Costello and the Imposters"... I want them all under the same artist name).
2) Can I change the basic tags (Artist, Album, Genre and even Track #) using Create MediaSource Organizer, or should I download a decent/free ID3 tag program recommended on various guru FAQs?
3) Here's my real question: Once I alter the tag on a track I've already loaded onto the player, I will want to replace it with the updated tags. If I re-transfer, will it overlay the tracks with the updated ones -- or will it create duplicates? Do I need to delete the album or tracks from my player before sending them back over?
Thanks
Michael

Well you can only edit tags using the PC. I meant with respect to which data source you use, the player itself (when connected to the PC) or the files on the PC's hard dri've.
The "move" would be just taking a subfolder ("album") and moving under a different "artist" folder -- in Explorer. I figured also that I'd still have to change the tags (the ripping program reads the tags and creates the directories, but I assumed the intelligence doesn't go another way).
Ah right. Yes, you have to change the tags themselves. It doesn't automatically realise the folder has changed, although you can get many programs which will use folder and filename data to generate the tag.
So I should grab a tagging program, and plan to "Delete From Player" and "Re-Transfer From PC." Not as bad as it sounds, as I can delete whole albums at once from the Player.
It's certainly the method I use. It really depends on what approach suits you.
I saw the list of tag programs on your FAQ -- are the "free" ones good enough? Is there a real advantage in the shareware or paid programs (other than the one you cite on Nomadsync).
I've never bought a tag editing program, and have used 2 or 3. I prefer overall though, but some don't like the UI. Best to check some out.
Nomadsync is listed in the programs to copy files. Remember that Nomadsync is not a tag editor, it's a program for copying files.

Any tips for organizational best practices?

Hello Community,
I'm an amateur CC user, digital art dllettante and Adobe fangirl, who is trying to delve deeper into the software and learn to work at a more professional level ( or at least some facsimile thereof).
Like lots (I hope) of amateurs, I have a scattered collection of digital image files haphazardly organized, and have grown tired of scrolling through Aperture when I want to find some inadequately-labeled image added at some forgotten date.
The vast usefulness of Bridge is obvious. There is so much that can be done -- when one knows how -- that I'm overwhelmed and intimidated by it.
There are likely some optimal ways of using it that are obvious to the pros, but that an amateur might not realize the value of. I knos this myriad of options is here because professionals find them useful for specific reasons, but I'm too ignorant to realize the why's and wherefore's.
I'd like to find some resources that address the optimal ways of organizing with Bridge, so I don't spend hours assigning keywords and creating galleries and collections that will turn out to be completely bassackwards.
Does anyone know of any books, tutorials, etc that cover How to (Effectively) use Bridge? Not as in, "here's how to find the menu that will allow you to do x,y,z" but as in, "Here's why it's a good idea to do x,y,z rather than a, b, c"?
Thanks for any advice!

You might want to look into the books and videos by Peter Krogh, a recognized expert in organizing digital photos (DAM or Digital Asset Management for photographers). Most of the materials out there have to do with Lightroom, but you should be able to recognize enough of the features that also appear in Bridge and Aperture. The basic principles of photo tagging and organization are the same no matter what software you use to do it. Since you mentioned Aperture, you should also look into its organizational features because chances are it can do a lot of it as well or better than Bridge.

DNG codec doesn't support descriptive tags in Windows 7

I installed the Adobe DNG codec yesterday which does indeed make it possible for Windows Explorer, Windows Media Player, Windows Live Photo Gallery and Windows Media Center to display DNG files (as thumbnails and as full sized images). I discovered however that descriptive tags are not supported. I use descriptive tags to organize my JPG photos. Descriptive tags are fully supported with JPG files in Windows 7. Windows Explorer exposes them for viewing and editing in the metadata pane along the bottom of the window. Windows Live Photo Gallery exposes them for editing and in the tree structure that is used for navigation. Users in Windows Media Center can choose to view their photos by descriptive tags, or date, or folder. Without descriptive tags, my photos would be a disorganized mess. I'd like to switch to storing my photos as DNG's rather than as JPG's, but it just isn't feasible without descriptive tag support in the codec. Any chance the DNG codec will support descriptive tags in a future release?

Another library organization question

Is there a way to configure itunes so that it would import files into the library exactly the same way as they are organized in folders on the hard drive (each folder is an album and would not use the id3 tags to organize the songs)?

No, you must put the music into the iTunes library to load it onto an iPod.
You can make iTunes just save the location of your music files rather than copying them into the iTunes Music folder.
Go to Edit>>Preferences>>Advanced>>general and uncheck "Copy to iTunes Music folder when adding to library".
If you also uncheck "Keep iTunes Music folder organised" as well, iTunes will not interfere at all with how you have your files organised.

Difference between internal and external organizations in oracle hr

Hello,
While creating an organization, when do we use Internal and External? Basically whats the difference between these two options in the Work Structure screen while defining organizations?
Thank You
Kumar

Hello,
Just to add on information.
Internal organizations are such as departments, divisions, and sections
External organizations are such as benefits carriers, tax authorities, and recruiting agencies.Organization classification Payee Organization when defining an external organization that is the recipient of a third party payment from an employee, for example a court-ordered payment. You can then select this organization on the Personal Payment Method window when entering a third party payment method.
Generally we do not tag employees(Organization classification HR Organization) to external organizations.

Cannot tag folders or old files in Mavericks

I am trying to use the new Tags to organize my documents. The only file I can currently tag is a new PDF created today. All my old files pre-Mavericks cannot be tagged. I've tried using Get Info window but tags do not drop down. Also new Edit Tags button does not 'light up' when I highlight an old file or folder.

Adding a "custom" color to a user defined tag ?

How can I add my own user defined "color" to a new tag I create in the Finder ?
Thx

Hi a_mumford,
Using tags is a great way to stay organized. I use this feature quite a bit. I've linked to an article which explains how to use and edit them:
OS X Yosemite: Use tags to organize files
Edit tags
In the Finder, choose Finder > Preferences, click Tags, then do any of the following:
See a tag in the Finder sidebar: Select the blue checkbox to the right of the tag.
Change a tag color: Click the color next to the tag , then choose a new color.
Change a tag name: Click the tag, click the tag’s name, then enter a new name.
Create a new tag: Click Add .
Delete a tag: Select the tag, then click Remove .
Add a tag to the shortcut menu: Select the tag in the list, then drag it over the tag you want to replace in the favorites section at the bottom of the window. There can be up to seven tags in the shortcut menu that appears when you Control-click a file.
Remove a tag from the shortcut menu: Drag the tag out of the Favorite Tags section until you see a puff of smoke.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Bobby_D
