Viewing LR Star Ratings in Bridge

I thought I would see what happens to LR Star Ratings when the images are viewed in Bridge CS3. The answer I have is inconclusive. On one set of photos that were exported from LR as jpegs, the star ratings show up in the exported photos but not in the raw originals. In another set that was not exported they don't show up in the originals either. Should these programs play together in this manner or not?

Sure you can. The controls for the filter have moved to the lower right from the left panel. They have added two other filters, colors (a la Bridge) and Flag/No Flag.

Star ratings in Bridge, contact sheet in InDesign

If i add star ratings to photos in Bridge, can I include them in my InDesign contact sheet using Tools>Indesign?

Hi DeNoveau,
I was struggling with this same issue. I found a solution that is somewhat helpful. Not ideal but better than nothing.
1. Create the InDesign contact sheet as you normally would.
2. Choose Window > Automation > Scripts
3. In the Javascript folder, find LabelGraphics.jsx
4. In the panel that comes up, choose File Path
That should do it. As I said, not ideal but better than nothing.

Can star ratings assigned in Photoshop Elements 11 be viewed in Bridge? [was:Noreen needs help]

Can star ratings assigned in Photo Shop Elements 11 be seen when viewed in Bridge or visa versa, if assigned in Bridge, will they show up in Elements?If so, how is it done?

Addressing your second question, you are confusing two different things.
tiff is an image file format, as is jpeg, as is psd, as is png, as are dozens (if not hundreds, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_file_formats) of other formats.
A colour profile represents the colour characteristics of devices so that, for example, displays know how to display the colours, printers know how to print them.
Image files MAY, but do not have to, contain colour profiles.

Imported Star Ratings

In Aperture, when I import images that have been previously meta-annoted in iView, the star ratings do not show up (that column is empty in list and thumb views), although all my other iptc stuff is there.
The stars DO show up in LightRoom, but not in Aperture. Is this a known thing and is there a tip for it?

Well, you forced me to go through the old iView manuals. Turns out it IS an XMP thing that allows Lightroom and Bridge to see stars:
*iView 3x manual*
Ratings as annotations (pg 64)
+Ratings in MediaPro are mapped to Adobe’s XMP standard for ratings. When annotations for images in a catalog are synchronized (written) to the original files, all ratings will be written into the files. If you open the image in Adobe Bridge, the star ratings will be displayed. Likewise, if you have assigned a rating to a file in Bridge, the rating will be displayed when you import that file into a MediaPro catalog.+
*iView 3x manual*
+iView / IPTC / QT / XMP / Aperture chart (pg 147)+
Color labels no longer mentioned. No mention of ratings, but they do specifically list Aperture's equivalents.
As for my Urgency memory:
*iView 2x manual*
+iView / IPTC / QT / Photoshop CS (pg 90)+
"color labels" are listed with "urgency" here (and Urgency in the big IPTC list is indeed empty). Ratings are not listed
So I guess for coprporate reasons Apple does not support the was XMP sees some stuff. If it's just the stars, that's workable, as Steve said. I just wonder what other annotations I haven't noticed yet...

Tags and star ratings not visable

when i select named tags and/or star ratings,is there a way to make these visable when viewing in organiser ?
Any help gratefully received.

Hi,
You don't say which version of Photoshop Elements you are using.
In genera, if you talking about seeing the tags and ratings in the thumbnail view in the organizer, go to the View menu and make sure that Details is checked. If you want to see the file names also check File Names. Yoou may have to increase the size of the thumbnails, by using the zoom slider, to make the information appear.
To see the tags associated with an image, hover the mouse over the little icons just below the thumbnail to the right. If you ae using version 12, you can select a thumbnail and then look in the Image Tags panel on the right. If the panel is not visible, click on the Tags/Info button (bottom right).
Please come back if you need further help

Star Ratings not shown.

I have Photoshop 11 and wish to put the star ratings to my photos. They are presently not being shown. I followed the video which states to go into View and click on Details. I did this and all the showed up was the date! Help please.

If you are zoomed out to far (the thumbnails are too small), you will not longer see additional details like the star rating or file name. Move the zoom slider at the bottom to the right to 25% or more.

Star Ratings disappear after ACR and saved as jpegs

I apologize in advance if this topic has come up before and I've somehow missed it. I've recently experienced an anomaly regarding the star ratings that I apply to our RAW files in Bridge CS3. Generally we'll star the RAW files while the client is still on the set to get their favorite picks. We then will batch process all of the files and save as HiRez jpegs. The client's picks then go into a "Favorites" folder and the rest into one we call "More" just in case the client finds that their picks don't jive as well as they thought they would in their layout. So, that being said, recently we've had two occasions where "some" of the ratings didn't make it through to the processed files. We're running both a G4 with Tiger and a G5 with Leopard. Both systems have the latest updates. The most recent occurrence happened on the G4, and I believe the other time it was on the G5, though I can't be totally certain. We use both machines to batch process the images.
Any help or insight would be extremely appreciated!

It could be possible that the cache had no time to rebuild, have you tried to purge the cache for folder using the tools menu. Also whenever something is behaving other then before in Bridge you should also try to refresh the preferences with holding down option key when restarting Bridge. After this don't forget to reset the prefs to your wishes.

Lost star ratings on my chosen photos in Filmstrip mode....

Hello,
Have recently lost my star ratings on my files while in Filmstrip mode and the marker that showed that the file had been edited has disappeared ( the little half moon things on the upper right side of the photo... Please help. Im assuming it is a setting but dont know which one

Were they raw images? Did you move them from one folder to another?
A raw image from a Canon or Nikon or other cameras has a raw image that cannot store any changes you make to your image. Rather, ACR creates a side-car file that must be in the same folder as the images. You will see your file and the sidecar so (for example) a cannon image might be _MG_3404.CR2 and the sidecar file would be _MG_3404.XMP. As long as those two are in the same folder, everything is great. Until you move one or the other from the folder. Then Bridge, ACR, or PS doesn't know what to do because there are no clues for the original image to KNOW that a sidecar file exists. If you still have the sidecar files, simply rejoining the two into the same folder will sove the problem.
One easy resolution to this is to convert the original image from the original fomat to a DNG. There are MANY MANY benefits to this (and no liabiliities) but for your circumstances, the sidecar file is stored in the DNG. Your original raw image is also stored within this DNG so they cannot be separated.
There are many ways to convert your images to DNG, one is during the original downloading: if you are using Bridge's Photo Downloader, there is an option to convert them to DNG during downloading. That's what I always do. After the fact conversion can be done using Adobe's DNG Converter.

Importing star ratings from Canon's ImageBrowser

Does anyone know how to import star ratings assigned to photos
using Canon's ImageBrowser (5.8.0.10) software into Aperture?
I've tried importing a few photos with various ratings into Aperture 2.1 trial
but they appear unrated in Aperture. (Neither iPhoto nor Adobe Bridge
recognized the ratings either.)
I've done some investigation, comparing copies of the same image
with different star settings, and it appears ImageBrowser is recording
its rating in a 'WheR' resource in the resource fork of the image file.
Thanks

I started using ImageBrowser in 2001 (probably under OS 8.5), was underwhelmed with iPhoto's stability when it was introduced, so since I recently got a new Intel mac, I decided to investigate migrating my library of 20K photos to Aperture.

1.1: No more star ratings on thumbnails?

Hello all,
As most of you did, I upgraded Aperture to 1.1. I'm now having a very annoying problem that I was hoping someone may be able to give some insight into.
When I'm going through the images (either fullscreen or windowed), when I would assign star-ratings or keywords, a little star icon and a "keyword" icon would show up on the thumbnail. Now, however, those icons do not show up, and I have no idea if I've rated the picture (or, for that matter, what I rated it). Is this a bug? A feature of 1.1? A problem with my Aperture 1.1.
I checked preferences, but that did not have anything to indicate that this is a feature that needs (re-)enabling.
I welcome any thoughts. Thanks in advance!
Doug

Hi Doug - check your view options: Cmd-J, or View menu>View Options...
In the options pane, is the heading "Grid View" selected/checked?

Star ratings on micro pho

Unfortunately no. I believe there is a petition floating around this board that you can sign for that (I believe I did as I would really love this feature).

Viewing .pct / .pict files in Bridge CS3

Hello there, I'd like to view .pct / .pict files in Bridge, but I am not getting any previews. I've tried to find a topic about this but haven't had any luck. Does anybody know a way to view them... a plug- in maybe. Or is that going to be the 'way it is'?
Actually just jumped on a MAC and pct files do preview, but no luck on any of the Windows machines.
Thanks a million!

That IS odd. I saved a file from Photoshop as a 32-bit .pct and I can
confirm that Bridge (on Windows) does not preview or thumbnail it. On the
other hand, I can't find any other program, free or pay, that fails to view
the file, so it obviously presents no technical difficulties...

How can I transfer my star ratings to my new computer?

Just bought a new Dell. I have ITunes on my old computer, and have spent lots of time creating playlists and star ratings. How can I import that into my new computer? I have a video Ipod with my complete music library on it, and when I connect it to my new computer I can listen and change the ratings, but I can't transfer the music, or any of the playlist info. Ideas?

Nano star RATINGS not reflected in iTunes 7.4.1 (2) - manual sync

Aloha,
I rated several tunes while walking. I don't have enough room on my 4gb iPod to carry everything at once. I would like to temporarily remove those tunes that I have already rated and put some others on. I use the star ratings as my own personal way to sort by speed, favs, and junk.
When I get back to my Mac, I know that the ones with 1 star are to be deleted - pau (pronounced pow! Pau is Hawaiian for done, did it, finished, no more).
2 stars is slow, maybe no words
3 is walking pace, can talk over, easy listening
4 is dance, hike, pep up
5 are personal fav's of a variety of speeds
I want to have that ranking info sync up with the same songs that came from my library in the first place. Then I want to dump those and grab more music, or audiobook parts, or podcasts, whatevahs. This is the way I used to do it on my old FireWire iPod many versions of iTunes ago.
I plan to continue to rate music as I have time and when I get back to my Mac that rating system allows me to put the music into playlists that I have essentially created on the fly.
I can change my rating system at any time and wa-la I've got a new playlist.
I'm open to other ways of accomplishing same onthego sorting principle. I've tried creating a playlist using iTunes, but the playlist is on my Nano and I cannot copy it or the files to a playlist on my Mac. . . . maybe I can export a playlist
Oh, that was ugly - don't follow me! I imported the playlist into my library and I now appear to duplicates of every playlist related to music (and the two called 4star are both empty). Great (eSarcasm).

First thing to get out of the way is ratings do not transfer from iPod to iTunes in manual syncing. Try using sync selected playlists mode. Then set up iPod to sync the playlists you want on iPod.
