Can I import words from the file name as keywords in the metadata when you import pictures?

Hello

My apologies if this question has already been asked. I can't find the answer: will / Lightroom can import words filename for my photos as keywords in the metadata when you import the photos from my hard drive? And if so, how can I do this?

I'm new to Lightroom from iPhoto. After reading several articles on the transfer of photos from iPhoto, I exported some 7000 photos in an electronic file on my hard drive. I'm following the advice, sort and rename the photo files on my hard drive to be able to import them into Lightroom in an orderly fashion. It is not too difficult because iPhoto already for most changed the filenames for event names as ordered in iPhoto. I also prefer to do it manually rather than using any iPhoto / Aperture plugin because my iPhoto organization was far from perfect and I have already started to significantly improve by changing the file names.

I'm renaming the files of images with additional information to improve the organisation even more with what would anyway keywords "DATE/NAME/NAME OF PERSON (S) IN THE EVENT PHOTO" so it would be good to not have enter these keywords in the metadata after import for each photo. It's automatic and if not is there a way to do this? All the other tips are welcome!

Thank you

Hi adiscerningeye,

You can create metadata Preset and then apply this preset on import for images.

Link partners: -.

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Help | Shares of advanced metadata

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4 * create and apply metadata presets

Once you create a metadata preset, you must select it during import so it will be applied on all images when importing.

You can also type a few words under key words, so it will work like keywords for this specific to import Images.

Let us know if it helps.

  • "nothing can be sent from the Office" when you try to print

    Original title: the problem of office printing

    Windows 8: I can't print anything.  He said: "nothing can be sent from the office.  Two hours ago, it was printing.  It happened once before and I accidentally found something clicked, active summer and it worked again.  They make it almost impossible to find! I can't find this time and so cannot print.  Where can I activate "the workstation sending" on my printer please.  I hate Windows 8!  Thank you.

    Hello

    -You use the devices option in the charms bar to select the printer and then print whatever it is?

    The message 'Nothing can be sent from the Office' means simply that you must do this from the 'Start' screen or in an app Store instead of from the "desktop". If you get "Has nothing to send right now" the splash screen or the app Store, then this means that you don't have any external device (ex: projector, printer, etc.) connected to send anything to, or the application does not support.

    Here is a work around that you can try.

    If you try to print from a program like MS word or notepad, and then press the CTRL key and the P key to access the printer Options. You will find the printer that is installed on the computer.

    Navigate through the steps of troubleshooting provided in http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-hardware/devices-nothing-can-be-sent-from-this-desktop/532f81de-435d-4121-a9e3-2ed57a1bf31a

    I have an email on Outlook Express, which leaves me the delete (distribution of the mail...

  • G6-1b70us Pavilion. Picture but no sound from the tv when you use HDMI. Worked without problem.

    I have a pavilion g6-1b70us I'm trying to connect my TV with an hdmi cable.  I get a picture but no sound.  Previously, this worked without problems.  When I shoot to the top of my reading of the sound settings, the only options are speakers and the headphones.  When I shoot to the top of my devices, the Samsung TV is there, but it is described as a "generic monitor" (thinking it was weird).  I have uninstalled and reinstalled my intel graphics driver and IDC audio driver but still no sound through TV.  Also, I will mention that in sub control panel > sounds and devices there is a link to the SRS Premium Sound technology.  As you can see in the image below, the Samsung device is, but it is greyed out and cannot be selected. Can someone please?

    Well in case anyone is interested I have solved the problem (only took me 12 hours to understand, lol).  Apparently, even if the Samsung TV did not appear in the audio options, you can still right click in the empty box and a toggle option will appear.

  • Using images from the library when you make apps phone in the AIR

    Gidday guys

    A lot of tutorials I get their images by integration practice at phone apps and put these images in the assets folder.

    I wonder - is it not OK to just use pictures and symbols in your Flash Pro library?

    I'm not referring to splashscreens and icons - rather the images that make up the functionality of the application.

    I thought that maybe something to do with providing many images for res' screen is different, but I plan on 640 x 960 and help design...

    stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.SHOW_ALL;

    .. .to take care of different resolutions.

    Thanks for your help.

    Yes, it's ok and other than the possible benefits of Organization (and a slight delay when loading), there is no advantage using imported bitmaps vs. loading.

  • Satellite P100-192: cracking sounds coming from the speaker when you use MSN

    Hello, I just bought this laptop p100-192. The speakers seem to mute (especially when there is an incoming message in MSN)
    Is anyone know why and a solution to this?

    Hello

    I studied in this forum for answers and it seems that the update of the audio driver will solve this problem.
    There is an update available (V3.11.0.51) driver that solve this crackling.

    But before installing the audio driver updated to at least the BIOS version 2.10 or higher must be installed on the laptop.
    Be careful. You must use the good BIOS and the correct procedure to update BIOS!

  • How can I change cursor using the pointer when you move to image?

    Title says it all.

    I'm trying to get the hand cursor when the user hovers over an image that is a link.

    Thank you!

    You want to have a handcursor on the image or the label... If you want on the image, and then use the properties in the image tag... You are only using useHandcurson and do not use buttonmode... .the of them go together... You should use navigatetoURL and not newBrowserWindow

    Hi sutterrot,

    After a conversion from PDF to Word, you can download the converted file locally on your computer.

    You can then select the "Enable editing" button and then remove images/texts or make any other changes.

  • How to remove a Word from the default dictionary of firefox?

    How to remove a Word from the default dictionary of firefox?
    If I wanted to remove the word 'dog' or 'and' for example

    There may be a range of reasons for wanting to do this, including the deletion of the words you use rarely as similar to other common spellings used words for example. "minute" and "Minuet", delete the words that you find personally offensive, or removing words that, because of linguistic or cultural background, you would not consider words at all.

    Note that I'm not asking how to remove my 'dictionary' words, words that I added myself.

    Hello

    I talked to a few people and I think I'm able to help you with this.

    There are two dictionary files, the default that comes with your version of Firefox and personal 'custom' that you create yourself with phrases and words.

    If you want to change the personal;

    1. Copy Subject: support and paste into the address bar.
    2. Next to the profile folder, click the marked File Show
    3. Find the file persdict.dat. Rename a text file, open, modify, re save it as persdict.dat and replace.

    If you want to change the default dictionary, it could be more of a problem and a lot more technique to do. I would recommend that you look at the problem differently and consider filtering of pages based on inappropriate content using Add-ons such as ProCon Latte Content Filter.

    I hope this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look at another solution for you.
