WTF??? MediaSource Deleted 2/3 of my tags

I just moved my entire collection (0,000+ mp3s) to my office computer and tried to import them into MediaSource. /3 or so worked perfectly...the other 2/3 got all the tags deleted except for song title. Thankfully I have 2 backups of my collection so I can fix it but does anyone know what happened?

I would still upgrade MediaSource to the latest version if it hasn't been already like Micromouse suggested. I know that it does fix many tag issues so there is no harm in doing that and it only takes a few minutes.
Let us know how it works out for you.
Also, I have used Tag and Rename for years to manage my ID3 tags:
http://www.softpointer.com/tr.htm
It has great options to do the tagging for you through Amazon and of course through FreeDB. It's not free but the software is very powerful and has made my life so much easier.Message Edited by mdscriber3 on 02-22-20060:22 PM

How do I delete some text in a tag in the XML file?

I need help with removing some text inside the tags so I can use it as a XMLfile
string example
Code
<Event xmlns="http://SwitchKing.Common/Entities/RESTSimplified/2010/07" >
<Description i:nil="true"/>
So these are the tags inside the file that is stopping my work.
I cant seem to find a way to remove the xmlns.... or the i:nil...
The i:nil gives of a error when trying to read the file and the xmlns stops the search for other tags in the file.
So when I have loaded the data I need to delete some text in the tags.
Help!

If you want to delete photo stream photos, just deleted them from your device and they will be deleted from iCloud and your other devices. Be sure you don't want them as you cannot get them back once you delete them.

Delete span class and closing tag

W7, CS6
I have multiple instances of a span class that I'd like to delete including the closing span tag. E.g., <span class="yy">text</span>. What's the best way to do this?
Paul

You can use the Find & Replace tool to find and remove something from the source of the entire local site if you like...
1. Control/Command + F
2. Find In: Entire Current Local Site
3. Search: Specific Tag
4. Specific tag text field: span
5. With Attribute: class
6: = (the small text field next to the = sign): yy
7. Action: Remove tag & Contents
8. Click Replace All

Does Aperture support deletion of multiple "unnamed" face tags?

Faces is a great feature. I love it.
I have 40,000 pictures in iPhoto. iPhoto currently does not have a way to select all "unnamed" face tags in a photo and remove them. I have to click each separate "unnamed" face tag to delete it. Because of the volume I am working with, without a global delete feature, I am looking at a 100-hour project (approximately 60,000 mouse clicks) to accomplish the deletion of all these "unnamed" face tags.
I was hoping that Aperture would offer this feature, since it is a Pro app. I called Apple today and they told me that "No, Aperture does not have this feature, either."
Does anyone know if Aperture does have a way of doing this? I tried to get an Apple Aperture support rep on the phone to think "outside the box" today on this, but he couldn't think of anything.
It just kills me that because I can't select multiple face tags in a photo and mass delete them with a single keystroke or click that I'm facing 100-200 hours worth of work, literally about 60,000 mouse clicks, in order to get rid of all my "unnamed" face tags.
Thanks for any ideas anyone might have.

Why is it worth 100 hours of your time to remove them?
(While I think_if_ there is a way to do what you want.)

Restore deleted keyword tags

I screwed up and while I was in Premiere Elements 4.0, I accidently deleted all of the keyword tags that I had set up in Photoshop Elements 6.0. Does anyone know if they can be recovered?
Although I haven't done a backup within Photoshop--maybe I should have?. I do have a completed system backup and could restore the file from there, but I don't know what file it is.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Mike,
The Tag information is stored in the Elements Organizer
b Catalog
Here is a link to an Adobe technical document that discusses info about the PS Elements 6 Catalog (yes its title does refence migrating but there is much more than migration information)
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb402592
Here is an extract of some relevant information
Photoshop Elements 6 stores catalog files by default in the following location:
------------beginning of techdoc extract
Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\Catalogs
Windows Vista: C:\Program Data\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\Catalogs
File extension: Catalog files created by Photoshop Elements 6 use the .PSEDB file extension. Earlier versions of Photoshop Elements used the .PSA file extension.
Database format: Catalog files created by Photoshop Elements 6 uses the SQLite database format. .... Applications that read the SQLite database format are available; however, Adobe does not support or recommend making changes to the database file outside of Photoshop Elements.
------------end of techdoc extract
I suspect that you used the default catalog name and location and that is what is referenced in the text that I extracted from the techdoc.
Continuing with additional relevant information
The default name of the catalog is "My Catalog" (no quotes in actual name). Below the folder shown in the techdoc extract (for XP or for Vista) you should see a folder named
My Catalog
What I would do is to make a copy to save somewhere else of this My Catalog folder as it currently exists - to be kept in case things get worse when you attempt to bring it back from your backuup.
Now there are 2 alternatives
1- bring back that entire My Catalog folder back from your backup to replace the current contents of the entire folder
2- bring only the .psedb file back from the backup and delete all the other files in that My Catalog folder
I would try option 1 first.
If you use option 2, more filles will need to be rebuilt : for example the entire thumbnail cache would need to be rebuilt and depending on how may photos, videos, etc are in the catalog that could take awhile. So I would use option 2 only if option 1 resulted in some problems.
Of course any changes made to the catalog or other related files since that backup would be lost. Photos would need to be reimported and any photo Version Sets made since your backup would need to be built as Stacks instead.

Search for, edit, and delete XML tag (Adobe InDesign Server CS5)

Hi all,
I'm working with Indesign Server CS5 and JavaScript, though having some trouble coming up with a solution to a problem...
I need to build a JS script (called through SOAP) that will enable me to search an InDesign file for a given XML tag.
Upon finding the XML tag, if the 'action' variable is set to delete, it should delete the tag and its contents.
If the action is set to edit, it should change the contents of the tag to some user-specified content.
The primary caveat is that the XML tag is variable, as is the XML structure of the InDesign file.
Here's what I have in mind, in pseudocode:
function findXMLTag(tag, action) {
     app.searchForTag(tag);
     if (tagIsFound) {
          if (action == "delete") {
               tag.delete;
          } else if (action == "edit") {
               tag.contents = "Updated content";
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Ben Kay

'searchForTag' can be implemented as a recursive function.
Recursion is defined like this: I thought, "I'll just search this forum for 'recursion'." The first post I found was one of my own, suggesting that the poster should search the forum for 'recursion'.
Here is an example: find the XML Element [<email>]
And another: Remove xml element using JS[CS3] (read carefully, as the OP got stuck on how to successfully remove an element and continue)
And one, using XML Rules -- which I'm totally unfamiliar with, but may work for you: Changing Values in XML tags

TOC in PDF does not include Link OBJR tags when exported from InDesign

I'm using InDesign CS6 to export a book file to a tagged PDF. When I run the accessibility checker in Acrobat 9, I get errors about items not being contained in the Structure tree. These missing items are links for the TOC and the Index page numbers. When I look at the tags, the Link OBJR tag is missing for these elements. I can't possibly manually add them all in. Other links e.g. cross-references, hyperlinks, automatically include these Link OBJR tags when exported. Why does the TOC and Index not do so?
I've asked this question in the InDesign Forum and no one seems to know. If I don't put these tags in, what does that mean for accessibility of the document?
Thanks for your help

Glad you found something that worked. For the future ... I found that if you create the PDF from BOOK and following these steps you can get the hyperlinks to automatically tag. This will work if you are getting editable hyperlink boxes for the TOC -- I find that it is creating these (although I could swear it didn't earlier). Anyway:
1. Select all chapters in the book and create PDF with hyperlinks and bookmarks. Save as TEST.PDF
2. Open the PDF and in the Pages Panel extract the page or pages containing the the TOC from the PDF. Save this as TOCtest.pdf
3. Delete the Tags from the TOCtest.pdf file -- in the Tags Panel, select the Root tag, right click and select delete
4. Select Add Tags to Document to this same file.
5. Examine the tags to see if all the OBJLINKs are tagged. Repeat steps 3 and 4 again (sometimes it doesn't autotag correctly the first time). You may have to manually correct some of the structure -- headings and/or artifacts on these pages.
6. Save again.
7. Go back to the main document TEST.PDF -- delete the TOC page or pages from that document (assuming you didn't when you extracted.)
8. On the pages panel, Insert from file and choose TOCtest.pdf -- insert before the first page.
9. This will bring in the newly tagged TOC and it's tags HOWEVER the tags will be out of order in the tags panel. They will be at the bottom and you will need to find them and MOVE them where they should be.
Still more effort than you should have to but it worked for me.
Not sure how to record a bug with Adobe, but my testing in CS5 shows that this is NOT a new problem. CS5.5 did the same thing for me.

Mediasource 5 - error message when altering ID3 T

In Creative MediaSource 5, when editing the ID Tags of some files, the following message keeps appearing:
'the track information has been updated in PC Music Library but not in the audio file, because the file may be in use or the file is marked as read-only'
This appears when I'm trying to edit files which are NOT marked read-only and are NOT in use with any other devices or applications!
After clicking 'ok' in the error meassage box, the original audio file will no longer play in any media player including Creative's own MediaSource player.
This seems to happen to files that have no ID3 v or v2 tag data already inputted. I discovered this by cross-checking in Winamp.
Any advice would be very welcome please!

What is the version of your MediaSource 5. Make sure it is the latest v5.0.38. Some MP3 may have ID3 tags that are not quite officially correct. Such tags usually cause problem to tag editors including MediaSource. If you don't mind, you can send me one of your MP3 files to:[url=mailto:[email protected]">[email protected] g[/url]?I can try editing the tag with MediaSource 5 and see whether it exhibit the problem that you mentioned.

In my e-mal log the boxes for me to delete have dissappeared, dashes now show where the square box use to be

Each email entry begins with a boxes to check, if you want to delete separate or multiply listing. The boxes are now dashes the only way I can delete an email is to tag on to it, which it will open the email. I get a lot of adds and if I don't know where they're from I could go in and enter a check mark in each box and they would delete all email where I entered the check mark. Not anymore I don't know what happen

If you do that, the rman repository will not know you did it and will continue to think those files are available. That's why there are rman commands to do this kind of housekeeping ("back archivelog delete ... ", "delete obsolete ...")
send me script which scan flash recovery area and delete folder at operating system level automatically.(Linux).Sounds like a demand that volunteers do your work for you. If you need help with a task, the professionally courteous thing to do is show the work done so for, explain what you are having trouble with, and politely ask for assistance. No one here is obligated to do anything for you.

Palm Pre - Delete music - PLEASE HELP!!!

Ok, so the instructions on deleting music from the Pre is to connect it to a computer using the USB mode and just deleting whatever you want. However, when I do this, there are ABSOLUTELY NO MUSIC FILES listed in the Palm Pre window. I have a Mac. Please tell me how to fix this problem!
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

There should be a folder named ipod or itunes, I can't remember which, Itunes places them into this folder. It is best to connect back to itunes and delete them that way but with the newest version the Pre is not reconized, So you could go into thet folder and delete them that way, Itunes tags them funny so it may be best to delete everything in that folder and create a new folder in the main screen when you are in usb mode, Name it "Music" drag and drop your songs into it and the music player will find them.

Why do input tags stop working when I add more tags to my project ?

I'm having a problem with tags, when I add more input tags to my project the rest of the tags stop responding, that is when I monitor them with the tag monitor I get a low limit error, if I delete the new tags in the project the rest of the tags start working ok, the whole project has 804 tags, and I'm using a Pentium 4 2.8GHz server, 256 Mb RAM and Windows 2000 Advanced Server, Any idea of what could be happening ?

Hello, I'm attaching the SCF File, the new tags that we created when the problem started are "VoltajeBateriaPozo11" and "VoltajeLineaPozo11" through "VoltajeBateriaPozo15" and "VoltajeLineaPozo15" (new set of tags)
When this set of new tags are included in the SCF file the tags "VoltajeBateriaPozo1" and "VoltajeLineaPozo1" through "VoltajeBateriaPozo15" and "VoltajeLineaPozo15"
don't show the correct value when we monitor them (We get the low limit alarm), the rest of the tags work properly.
When we delete the new set of tags all the tags work properly (including "VoltajeBateriaPozo1" and "VoltajeLineaPozo1" through "VoltajeBateriaPozo10" and "VoltajeLineaPozo10").
The OPC server we are using is the National Instruments OPC Lo
okOut Driver Version 4.5, the alarms are not communication alarms.
Thank you for your help.

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.

Remove insert replace delete options from abap editor in EDIT mode

hi ,
i am facing a strange problem. when i change to edit mode the code remains as display format and there are buttons in the toolbar to insert,delete, modify .
it puts a tag *{ insert
like this when i press insert button.
i want to do normal editing. How to ressolve it.
this is a Z-program and editor lock is unchecked.
please help me.

this is because you are trying to change a progarm that is not the orignal in that system, in which you are trying to make changes.
for such program Original system is different from the system in which you are trying to modify it. You can also check it from object directory entry.
To edit such type of program please follow the below procedure.
GOTO T-CODE SE03
Under the node *Object Directory choose change object directory entries and click on execute icon or double click on it.
now check the check box R3TR PROG and give the program name in the input area and click on execute icon
now double click on program name and change the original system and give the name of system in which you are tyring to make changes in that program.
I have applied this solution many times and this will also work for you.

Online Archive - Deleted Items Folder

Hello,
I have setup retention policy and tags. It seems to be working okay, almost. A default retention tag applies which archives items after one year. This seems to be working ok for folders such as inbox, and sent. However, it does not
seem to be working for the deleted items folder.
I've also created personal tags to archive after various periods. Users try to apply those personal tags to the Deleted Items folder, but the managementAssistent never listens to that personal tag on the deleted items folder. Personal tags do
work for other folder (custom and inbox, etc). And the managementAssistant does run as expected... just not on the deleted items folder. This happens for another (6 month personal tag to archive deleted items folder), and same for my mailbox (1
week personal tag to archive deleted items folder).
Any suggestions?
Drew

Hi,
Deleted items folder is managed by "Deleted Item Retention" Either on DB level or mailbox level
