Tidbits has a good article on the metadata iBooks Mess.

Tidbits (and its sister Take Control Books) is an excellent source of knowledge for managing all things Mac and iOS. I found a workaround (a kluge, but it works) for iBooks inability to update Metadata, or even import existing metadata. I highly encourage those of you how like an organized library to read the article at <http://tidbits.com/article/14262>.

Could you please provide here more additional infos on your set-up with the raspberry device (may be a link to the device you boughthttp://au.element14.com/raspberry-pi/raspberrypi-2-modb-1gb/sbc-raspberry-pi-2-model-b-1gb/dp/2461030 which OS did you installhttp://openelec.tv/get-openelec how is it connect to your networki mostly use USB DAS ... but SMB for everthing else (if i need it) also do you use a remote control with this device ?Yes, i use my Tv Remote Control .... it controls the Rpi2 via HDMI CEC I can also use my smartphone to control it using apps....

Sharing to flickr doesn't push the metadata of modified photos

In iPhoto 09, we can share photo on flickr.
There is a very annoying problem though. If a photo has been modified in iPhoto, the metadata is lost (well, it's not lost really, since it's kept in a database outside of the file) but the file corresponding to the working copy of the photo doesn't contain the metadata of the original file. Although this is very annoying for many reasons, I understand that one photo in iPhoto is not necessarily 1 file. Fine.
The problem is that contrary to when a photo is exported, the metadata is not added to a photo that is shared on flickr (using the new 09 "share to flickr feature").
It works correctly when sharing on facebook though.
Here is a very basic scenario:
Take a photo in "landscape" mode and another in "portrait" mode.
Import them in iPhoto. Normally, the one in "portrait" mode will be rotated automatically by iPhoto so that it is displayed as it was meant to be display (great).
Select those 2 photos and share them on flickr.
The one in portrait mode will not have a "date/time taken" so the value will be the same as for "date/time uploaded". The one in "landscape" mode should be fine.
I think this is because the file that is shared for the picture in landscape mode is still the original file while the one for the portrait photo is a working copy that doesn't contain the metadata.
Is this a bug? Any chances to get a fix?

I believe so.
I have done some more tests and it looks like only the photos that have been rotated automatically because they were taken in portrait mode are affected.
For example, the pictures that I have modified in iphoto are exported AND shared on flickr with all the metadata. So it is not a matter of having a working copy of the original photo or having the original photo file.
It is really only for pictures that were taken in portrait mode.
I have done this simple test:
I import a photo that was taken in portrait mode, and export it with all the possible information check box checked (including location)
=> the exported photo doesn't contain the "generated date" and contains very little metadata (it does contain the location though).
I then go back to iPhoto, and "revert" the photo "to original". It doesn't appear to change, and it still is displayed in portrait mode. But now if I export it, the export contains the full metadata.
If I export a photo that got heavy modifications but that was taken in landscape mode, all the metadata is there.
So it really looks like a bug related to the "portrait" automatic orientation. The metadata is lost somehow...

Any good article on Java Interface usage principle?

Hi All
I find Java interface is quite good concept, but some expert mentioned in some article, "Don't over use it".
Just wonderring anyone can point me to some good article on the internet on In what kind sceniaro we need use Interface, in which case we'd better not use it.
Thanks in advance.
Steven

Then how do you explain some gurus said" don't overuse interface"?I explain it thus:
(a) it doesn't actually contradict what the article says
(b) 'don't overuse interfaces' is a tautology: it doesn't actually say anything very useful.
On the other hand there's no reason why "some gurus" can't disagree with Holub. I disagree myself to a large extent. You can define your entire API as interfaces, but then you're committed to all kinds of factory methods, and provision of secret implementation classes, etc. This can get pretty tedious pretty quickly. And, somewhere or other, you must have at least one actual class, so that you can have either a static method or a constructor, so you can get hold of your initial factory, or factory builder, or factory builder factory, or factory builder factory builder, or wherever it is that you want to start.
I've used frameworks where there were four different implementation classes for the same interface. Never did find out why. Something wrong somewhere.
When you can keep your base classes stable, I don't see a reason not to use them. 'Base class fragility' is all that Holub is really complaining about, and there are lots of solutions to that, such as 'don't' for a start. Java is chock full of stable base classes.

IBook G4: no video on boot... not the typical iBook issue

Hi,
I just received an iBook G4 1.2Ghz that is broken. It powers on just fine, but no video comes up. I removed the 512MB stick it came with to see if that was the problem, to no avail. Then I connected the iBook to an external monitor, with no video on boot as well. But other than the lack of video, the iBook seems fine. No loud fans (widespread issue on the G4s) or noises from a dying HDD, etc. I can hear the hard drive spin up, but it doesn't sound like it's loading anything, so my guess is that it's actually not booting.
But it gets even stranger. I can't even shut the laptop down by holding the power button (last resort type thing). I held it for a solid 20 seconds before I gave up and removed the battery. To me, it seems like this is a logic board problem, but I could be wrong. Anyone have any insight into this? I had an iBook that had video problems based on a weak GPU connection to the logic board, but this is different.
Thanks,
-Trevor

You wouldn't happen to know if Apple still has their iBook G4 repair program going, do you? By the looks of the support website it doesn't look like it, but I thought I'd ask.
In a bit of curiosity, I decided to try the "C-clamp" fix for the iBook. Amazingly, my iBook booted properly only to have it lock up again and see the screen change to colored vertical lines after 20 seconds. Like I said in my last post, I had another iBook that had a graphics chip problem and sometimes experienced similar issues. So now I think my iBook has more than one of the common iBook G4 logic board problems. The black screen/fans one is described here:
http://coreyarnold.org/ibook/
I tried to shim that specific chip as stated per the instructions, but it didn't work. I also did the same thing to this iBook, that fixed my older G4... shim the graphics chip. But, unfortunately, I still don't have a working iBook as of now, despite the shim. I thought I made progress when I started getting the fan on every boot (there was no noise +at all+ before), but that has since gone away and I'm back where I started. I'll keep trying different things to fix the iBook, but it think a logic board replacement is going to happen sometime in the near future. Anyone know where to find them besides eBay?
Thanks,

Lightroom is not saving metadata. I have done several things to save and I still get the tag that states is is not saved. I have also created 2 smart collections. One showing metadata has been changed and one showing metadata is not up to date. No matter what I do it is not showing in LR that it is saved. I spent 2 days with Seth Resnick trying to correct this and we re created my catalog. It was ok, until I imported new images and same problem. Now I have a new problem, when I bring image to PS it saves it but does not bring back to LR. Am I the only one out there who has this problem?

When using tethered capture I often get this notification "The metadata for this photo has been changed by both Lightroom and another application". This slows or stalls the loading of incoming photos. How do I find out which other application is changing

When using tethered capture I often get this notification "The metadata for this photo has been changed by both Lightroom and another application". This slows or stalls the loading of incoming photos. How do I find out which other application is changing the metadata and stop it?

Thanks Sean,
I've had a look at the TC settings dialog and tried to keep it as simple as possible. I also had a copy of LR 4 on the hard drive so have trashed that also incase of any conflicts. LR seems to be running ok now but as said it's an intermittent problem.
I also have a copy of Capture One on the hard drive so am going to uninstall that also in case it is trying to launch.

The metadata for this photo has been changed by both Lightroom and another application...

Often, I am not sure how to answer that one. Usually, I'm not aware of having made any changes explicitly, either in Lightroom, or externally when I get this prompt. Generally what I'm dieing to know when I see this is:
"What is the difference between the metadata Lightroom has for it, and the metadata on disk?"
A feature that could show me what the difference is between the on-disk metadata and the in-catalog metadata would be most appreciated.
Rob

Sometimes I know I haven't changed anything in the external file. In this case, the supposed conflict seems to be a bug and I overwrite with Lightroom metadata without exception (but with fingers crossed) - that bug has been reported.
Other times however, I have edited the file in an external editor, and its possible that the external editor wants to add some information that may be worth having, or it may be that its lost the original information - this is when its a dilemma:
If I overwrite disk file with Lightroom metadata, I may be losing what the external editor added.
If I overwrite Lightroom metadata with disk data, I may be losing what Lightroom had and the external editor dropped.
This scenario has not been reported as a bug, since I don't know if it is one. If I could see the difference between the two, then I'd know.

A PO has posted,goods r received but the invoice is not matching with the..

hi
A PO has posted,goods r received but the invoice is not matching with the PO as the TAX was reduced after posting. PLz clarify
can some explain the issue plz

Hi,
1. You are talking about which tax (Is it Excise Duty + CST/VAT) if yes then you can post the Excise invoice with correct duty amount in J1IEX and then same will get defaulted in MIRO as per the duty posted in Excise Invoice not as per PO.
If you have already posted the excise invoice then go for cancellation of same in J1IEX and then cancel GR and Post excise invoice to reverse Part 2 entries and then again do GR and Post Excise invoice with correct amount and then do LIV.
2. If it is only CST / VAT then simply use the appropriate tax code in MIRO as per the revised tax rate.
For e.g. if in PO Tax code is 4% VAT and now if you get invoice of say 1% VAT from vendor then simply select the tax code of 1% VAT in MIRO similarly can be done in case of CST and Service Tax also. Only in case of Excise duty you have to follow the above method.

Has anyone else honestly had GOOD luck with the Kin TwoM?

I recently purchased a Refurb Kin TwoM off ebay...I havent yet activated it but I did want to pass this along to others (as I was curious about) that I WAS able to take my old Samsung Intensity to a VZW Store and they transferred all my contacts within about 5 minutes! I wanted to make sure that would work first before anything! Also, I tested out the wifi @ home and Mcdonalds and it connected just fine!..its like a Wifi-Enable Mp3 player right now and it only cost me $40, so hopefully once i fully activate it the actual PHONE will work! There are a few quirks Ive noticed like others have pointed out..such as the screen lock doesnt actually lock the volume controls on the side....and the browser is awesome for a basic phone but isnt quite as smooth or 'fluid' for webpages like our Ipod Touch is...(but you really shouldnt compare it to any smart' devices that like) Im not sure if its true for all Kin's but I havent been able to play videos offline like Youtube? anyone else have this issue? I also wish with there were some simple Apps like FB / Twitter/ Maps available but I suppose I cant expect too much!

I know I'm tempting fate by posting this, but yes, I've been quite happy with my KIN TWOm.
I got mine originally in June, 2011. A couple of weeks later, it dropped from the holster on a dirt path and must have hit a pebble or something, because a small section of the screen stopped working. VZW sent me a "Certified" replacement (cost me $99 because of the apparent physical damage), and it has been performing fine for the past 13 months.
Sure, there are some software quirks (It's Microsoft, remember?) but the benefits clearly outweigh those. Probably the thing I miss most is the lack of any voice recording/command function. But I love that it has WiFi, and the nice camera and 8GB memory let me take over 400 pictures when my normal camera was stolen on the second day of a trip to Europe. The Zune music player is nice as well, and the e-mail client, while limited in function, is much nicer than the one on my previous phone.
As for the actual phone functions, I text more than I talk, and the physical keyboard is very nice for that. As for voice calls, I do that pretty seldom, but have not had any problem with dropped calls, volume, etc.
OK, the big elephant in the room is the "black screen" that seems to affect so many people. It's happened to me a few times as well. I think my background as a computer guy has helped me deal with this. When this has happened to me, it's always been when the device was "sleeping", and just didn't want to wake up. Like maybe it wasn't recognizing the interrupt from the "back" button. In those cases, I've found that holding the button down a little longer, opening the keyboard, or briefly pressing the power button will get its attention. Or sometimes I just need to let the device rest for a minute or two and it manages to untie itself. There have just been a very few times when I've had to do a cold boot (remove/replace the battery).
You also need to be careful as to how you put the device in your pocket or belt holster. Make sure that you don't position it in a way that the power button can be accidentally pressed when you sit down. There have been a few times when I take the phone out of my pocket and the little power off confirmation box is displayed. If that happens, be careful not to touch "OK" -- unless you want to power off.
Anyway, maybe mine is living on borrowed time, but overall I've been very happy with it so far.
I know there are others who have not had such a good experience, but this thread asked for people who were happy with their KINs, and I am.
