When adding a keyword to a photo, if there's a parent keyword, why isn't photo added to that??

I have a keyword setup that includes this kind of hierarchy:
iOS Apps
    Color Splash
    Waterlogue
    Instagram
My question is:
If I tag a photo with "instagram," for example, I would think that "iOS Apps" would automatically be added to it ... but that's not the case ...???

Remember: for all most practical purposes, your photos have the iOS parent keyword and the child keyword, even though parent keyword is not checked in the Keyword List pane.
Do this experiment:
* Choose a photo and assign ( iOS > ) Instagram keyword (just the child).
Go to library module and filter for all photos with iOS keyword - voila - there's your photo (right?).

The bottom line: all most of the advantages (correct me if I'm wrong) with none of the disadvantages.
PS - after receiving feature request(s) to remove explicit parental assignments, I added the feature to do so to Keyword Consolidator plugin. That feature is used by people who started out doing parental assignments, then realized implicit assignment was preferred. So far, I have NOT had a feature request to add explicit parental assignments. So I kick the burden back to you - if you can explain why implicit parental assignment is inferior for you, then I'll add a feature to Keyword Consolidator to add explicit parental assignments automatically - it would be very easy to do.

Slightly important info to include.
Once the iPhone is in Recovery Mode, it must be restored with iTunes.
You are unable to select Restore?

HT201320 My iPod states my username/password is incorrect. When I use my username/password through the browser it is correct? Why isn't the iPod reading it?

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Go to Settings.iTunes and App Stores and sign out and sign back in.

Hello. How do I keep the actual size of a photo when adding to a Keepsake? Used to do this but have forgotten how!

Hello. How do I keep the actual size of a photo when adding to a Keepsake? Used to do this but have forgotten how! Need help please!
T.

Here is my suggestion:
Open a blank, new file (File>new>blank file) size 8.5x11"
Open the collage
Go to Select>all
Go to Edit>copy
Go back to the blank file created in step #1
Go to Edit>paste. The collage will be on its own layer
Access the move tool, and with the corner handles resize the collage. Using the corner handles should preserve the aspect ratio. If you open the rulers, you will have a point of reference as you go along.
Print a draft copy to see if it will be suitable in the frame..
Please report back with your progress.

IPad 3 crashes when adding photo from gallery

Major bummer. I've had my new ipad3 for about a week. Just today when I try and add a photo to either a chat or to Facebook it crashes before it pulls up my photo gallery. This is awful. Anyone else experiencing this? What can I do besides shutting off and rebooting?

OK, it may have been an issue with the last photo that was in my camera roll. For the heckuv it I took another pic and then tried adding photos again in my apps and it worked. Thanks!

When adding a new photo to an album in iPhoto 8 it changes the order of the photos in the album; how do I stop this ?

Iweb issues - photos are put in a RANDOM ORDER when added to photo grid

My website created with i-WEB contains a lot of photos.
When I add them to a photo grid (on a page using the "Photos" template, by dragging and dropping from Finder) the order of the photos is randomized by i-web.
They are kind of in reverse order (highest file number first) but with a large number of files just randomly arranged in no particular order. The files have simple numerical names like "img_100, img_101, img_102" etc which are in numerical / date order in Finder, but when loaded into i-web are not in any order.
I can't see a feature / option anywhere in I-web to re-arrange images according to name. I can of course manually rearrange them which is fine for a dozen images, but not when I have 500.
I have tried adding a small number of images to see if it's a problem with overloading the software with too many, but the problem happens with 5 images as well as 500.
(this is i-web '08)
Matt

The photo app puts files in date/time order and ignores their names.
You can look for another app that may honor file names (sorry, I don't know any to recommend) or you can find a program that alters your file properties. If all the files have properties that read the same date and time, then it defaults to alphabetical order

Bridge crashes when adding keywords?

I was hoping to organize my photos through Bridge but it keeps crashing when I add keywords. Sometimes it works and other times it crashes even if I ony select one photo at a time? Very disappointing. This is the first crash on PS CS6 after 30 plus hours of use. I have 8GB of RAM. The RAM meter on Windows 7 is only at 20%. I also tried turning off AVB anti-virus but no go. I increased the cache too but no go.

Thank you for helping...Updated my video card driver but no change..... it still crashes. Sometimes it works sometimes it crashes on a single photo file.

Continuing Index numbers when adding photos

Does anyone know if it is possible to continue the index numbering when adding additional photos to a folder in which the photos were names with a custom name with index. To be clear, if the last photo in the folder is, for example, 'Big Ben 22', can I add more photos at a later date and have the new ones start at 'Big Ben 23....24....25 etc etc.
I am finding that it just starts at 1 again and doubles up - ie. there are then 2 x 'Big Ben 1' etc

Here is something regarding exporting/naming but the naming presets work the same way for importing.

Trying to add photos, when adding second album, first one lost

when trying to add a second photo album, the first one seems to be deleted. I do use a new album title. What am I doing wrong? HELP

That is how it works. You need to select and sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go, as not including them in a subsequent sync is how you delete them from the iPad (as you've found out). So if you want to sync multiple folders so as to have multiple albums on the iPad, they will need to be directly off the same parent folder so that you can then select them.

When I click to open a photo it opens a black screen with a grey triangle, exclamation mark in the middle. How do I fix this problem?

Make a temporary, backup copy of your library if you don't already have one (Control-click on the library and select Duplicate from the contextual menu) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

PSE 10 system slows down when adding files to catalog

I recently switched from PSE 3 to PSE10 and had issues converting the catalog. I never did resolve those so I decided to start with creating a new catalog in PSE 10. My first session of adding photos worked fine. When I restarted the task the next day, I was asked in participating in making the product better by sharing information about my use with Adobe. I agreed to participate and very quickly noticed that my computer slowed considerably when adding photos from my hard drive. The process still worked but I experienced a dramatic increase in the time it took for photos to be added (e.g. the cursor spins for a couple of minutes while the task is working). I went under my account preferences and opted out of the product participation program but the problem has persisted. I rebooted the computer to see if that would help but it has not. I have turned off all media analysis and both optimized and repaired my catalog and while this has provided some improvement, there are still instances where the system slows down. Now it seems that every other folder's worth of pictures (does not matter how many photos) I add causes this delay.
I appreciate any help anyone can provide in determining why this slow down keeps occuring.
FYI, I am running a new Windows 7, 64-bit system with 8GB DDR-3-1066MHz, and 2 TB hard drive.

Have you also edited the Preferences (Performance) to increase the amount of RAM that PSE can use?
Do you have many background processes running? Having a single HDD means that everything running on your computer has to wait in the queue for disk access.
How many photos are you importing?
What file types are the photos?
How large are the photos?

My iPhoto goes black when I try to open a photo

I am running OS 10.7.5 and iPhoto 11 9.4.3 on an iMac. Yesterday I uploaded 620 photos into iPhoto. They worked perfectly and I was able to go through all of them after uploading. I did not close iPhoto last night but minimized it to the dock. Today when I tried to open a photo from the thumbnail, the screen went black. All my albums do the same thing. The first image clicked on comes up on the screen. Then it goes black and then nothing I do will bring up another image.
I restarted iPhoto but that did not help.

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Starting in 2015 I get the following error when I try to import my photos. "The following files were not imported because they could not be read" -DSC8416.NEF I've been importing the same type of photos with no errors then 2015 came along and now I can

Starting in 2015 I get the following error when I try to import my photos. "The following files were not imported because they could not be read" -DSC8416.NEF I've been importing the same type of photos with no errors then 2015 came along and now I can no longer import.

The error message is misleading, the problem is that you need WRITE privileges added to the destination directory tree.
Assuming you are using the "date" structure that LR defaults to, find the directory that contains the 2014 folder (the one that works) and add WRITE rights to the parent of "2014".
While you are there, if you want, add "2015" folder to beside "2014" and add READ and WRITE rights to that new directory.

When I create an album and then try to watch it in slideshow, I get only a black screen with a white title. No photos come up. Also when I click on an individual photo in the album, I get a white exclamation point on a black background but no big photo.

When I create an album of photos and then open the album and try to watch it by selecting "slideshow" I get only a black screen. The white title comes up briefly but then no photos, only a black screen. Also when I go back to the album and click on a thumbnail, up comes a big white exclamation point on a black background instead of the enlarged photo. Any idea what's going on?

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
