Difficulty of capitalization of metadata

I have a bunch (Finally, 45 000 or more) photos taken in Baja California. I put his State of these photos for "BC" - or at least I wanted to. At least a picture seems to have its state value "bC", then when I start typing, I am offered both "BC" and "bC" as the AutoComplete options. Select "BC" in the menu drop-down usually, but not always, actually chooses "bC", which makes me crazy. It is very difficult to enter "BC" successfully, but once I am able to do, Lightroom for most chooses 'the most recent text' and I can now put the field properly.

What I want to do is to find all photos with State / Province = "bC" and change them to "BC", which would fix the problem of AutoComplete, but I cannot understand how to proceed.

Of course, I could select all photos with State / Province = "BC" using the filter library (that actually selects the "bC" and "BC"), and then change them all to "BC". This will update the metadata on about 45 000 photos but there are a lot of problems resulting from that.

Any thoughts?

I note that a similar question of 2009 remains unanswered.

Oops, I see in my example above I had 6 photos with "bC" and 6 with "Bc", and the browser metadata successfully sets apart them.   But when I changed the 6 photos with "Bc" to "BC" instead, the browser metadata lumps everything under "bC", similar to what you saw:

It's a weird bug.

I don't know either way in LR to find dependent cases in the State field. The different plugins or do not case-dependent research (search replace transfer, any filter) or not search (Extended Search).

You could use Exiftool to dependent case search and replace optional, but this seems a lot of effort for not not change of metadata to the files 45K.

  • I moved the files in Lightroom 5 from one drive to another (created the new folder and dragged).  Now I see warning of metadata.  What has caused this?  Can I import or rewrite the difficulty catalogue?

    I am reorganizing lots of photos in Lightroom 5.  Some who were on my hard drive, I moved to an external drive.  I did all this in Lightroom.  I created a new folder on the hard drive, external, selected all the images in the folder on the hard disk, trained to the new folder.  Made sure they were there.  Then deleted the folder on the hard drive.  When I looked in Windows Explorer, the (empty) folder was still on the hard drive, so I deleted it there too.  Now, I get the warning on the images in the new folder metadata were changed in Lightroom and an external program.  The options are to import from disk or rewrite from the catalog.  I would like to know what caused this and how to fix it.

    Thanks for the clarification of Nancy.

    The warning of "metadata conflicts" is an indication that Lightroom "sees" a discrepancy between the data in its catalog and the data in the image file (or in the xmp file) on the real situation which could be due to permissions at the new location.

    You should choose the option to replace the parameters, that is, rewrite in the Lightroom Catalog can write changes to metadata of the catalog itself.

    (Import of the disc would cancel the metadata changes that you did until now)

  • Difficulty of Expression.Please asked unable to navigate in the consistency of the metadata

    Hello
    I created a test but when I m running the application I m geeting this error state: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error occurred. [nQSError: 14026] Unable to navigate the requested phrase: Dim - GL Account.Unit Code. Correct metadata consistency warnings. (HY000)
    now when I checked the RPD to do this and run the check of coherence, all went well. No warning MSG, no. Error, best No best practices.
    now, I checked the join condition in MDB for the dimension I m using in report and fact.
    It's like the F fact is joined directly with Sun A & b Dim.
    now when I checked the physical join, that's like fact F1 joined C Aand, made Dim Dim F2 is joined with Sun B and c Sun.
    There is so no table join made direct between Dim A and b Dim.
    Made F1 & F2 is going as MTLS in MDB and creation done F, now when I got this error I went to F in MDB and checked the LTS and the level of granuality to DIM A and B Dim F1 and F2 fact fact respectively. and it is also defined as a level of detail. and also is MDB LTS done F1 and F2 did join with an inner join with Sun C. and Sun C of granuality level is also defined in fact F1 and F2 of fact.
    the columns that i m taking criteria are in fact coimng F, A Dim, Dim B.

    can anyone suggest me what to do in this case?

    Thanking you...

    Hey Veer,

    If I get you correctly,

    In MDB

    Fact F = (physical F1 + F2)

    In Physics:

    F1-> A Dim, Dim C; F2-> B Sun, Sun C

    So in your BMM, please make sure that

    1 logic physical source F1 has 'Détail a Dim, Dim C' and 'Total to Dim B '.

    2 logic source physical F2 a 'Détail b Dim, Dim C' and 'Total to Dim A '.

    I think this should solve the problem.

    I hope this helps.

  • The songs that have had their metadata changed in iTunes have disappeared from my iPhone

    I'm a music Apple and iTunes game iCloud user of the music library. Suffice it to say that aloud, it occurs to me that this stuff is a mess and may expect that this works correctly are just wishful thinking.

    I use Apple's music since the day wherever she launched. Recently, as in the last two weeks, I noticed that some albums on my iPhone was missing songs. In any case, I think that the missing songs are the ones where I edited the title of the song and possibly other metadata in iTunes. It is difficult for me to check if ALL the Apple music songs where I edited the title are messed up now, but it goes back far enough, certainly before I began to experience songs that disappears.

    To give you a concrete example, some time ago, I added the 2pac album "2pacalypse Now." In the Apple's music, this album lacks all the features of the song of songs, so I added back in. For a while things were fine, but recently the songs where I added the functionality for the title of the song disappeared from my iPhone. Now, all I see are five titles that do not have features and a link to "Show full Album" down.

    I spoke with @applemusichelp on Twitter last night and they asked me to turn off music Apple and iCloud music library on my iPhone, reboot the phone, identify new in music Apple and reactivate iCloud music library. Did not work. Their recommendation then was, "Don't change the metadata for the Apple music titles in iTunes." To which my answer was: "so why iTunes allows you to edit metadata for pieces of Apple's music in the first place?"

    Anyone else having this problem? Someone at - it a solution?

    As I said in my recently published issue, the songs have not disappeared. They are still there, but they appear as "Unknown artist" and "Unknown Album" (you can search for them browse by 'Songs' rather than the 'artists' or 'Albums'). This is an extremely annoying bug that I wish that they difficulty - I loved the Apple music was the fact that I could edit the tags...

  • Get the metadata from the images information (CS3, AS, JS)

    I tried using AppleScript and JavaScript to get the photo captions using linkXmp.description.

    This works when the image has been edited in Photoshop, but not when it has just been imported into the page and done nothing for her... The answer is "No metadata information available", a fair enough answer because it don't disagree that the information might be there.

    I got a job AppleScript which goes to Photoshop, opens the picture, gets the information, which is closed without saving changes and returns to InDesign to put an overlay on the image with its legend information. The time delay involved in the image opening is irritating, however.

    I tried initially in AppleScript, and when the offer read in the archives of this forum on the edition vs original problem.

    So, I headed over to the Photoshop Forum where a helpful guy gave me a fragment of AppleScript to get information of legend and a fragment of JavaScript to get the linkXmp.description in InDesign.

    I just finished adapting the JavaScript to work with a selected InDesign page item (learned much in the process). But in the end that I was confronted with the same brick wall I met with AppleScript. If the pic is not changed, no dice.

    My friend Photoshopping was surprised that I did raise my difficulty in the InDesign Forum... which I do now, with apologies to all those who may have read passed me on the road to this topic.

    Yes, there is an InDesign only method to obtain this information from legend?

    In the case that everyone faces in this here is an example that tries to get the legend of the bridge for files that have not given xmp.

    #target indesign
    main(); // Call to the main function
    function main() {
         if (app.documents.length == 0) {
              alert("Please have an 'Indesign' document before running this script.");
              return;
         }
         docRef = app.activeDocument;
         with(docRef) {
              // try reading linkXmp
              var caption = links[0].linkXmp.description;
              if( caption == "" ) getCaptionFromBridge( links[0].filePath );
    
         }
         return caption;

               bt.target = "bridge";

               bt.onResult = function( inBT ) {myReturnValue(inBT.body); }
               bt.send();

  • Restrict the metadata field during an update to a specific group of users

    Hi all

    I have some difficulty to find the best way to restrict permissions to change some fields of metadata for 2 different groups of users.

    I have two user groups, A and b. Group A will check in the documents that group B will then review for accuracy and quality. Group B will then update an optionlist field called "State" with "recommended" or "not recommended".
    This is not a situation of workflow as the scope requires that all documents are immediately available for research. I currently have a profile CheckIn and search for content to read write access for both groups A and B. The 'Status' field is hidden on the page of CheckIn. Can someone please suggest a good way to limit the 'Status' field on a page to update users to simply "B"? Groups A and B must be able to update all the fields except for the limited B field "Status".

    Thank you!

    Published by: user6750815 on June 2, 2010 16:11

    Hey rMac,.
    I understand in this way you have a profile for A and B groups of users. On this profile status field is hidden.

    If this is your problem, you can the two-step approach, while making the rule in order to hide the status field, use the activation of rule condition. Make active only for users with A role. This way even with the only profile some of the user with the role B will be able to see the status field.

    Alternatively, you can put a similar code to restrict the link of personalization where you make this hidden field editable and mandatory for users in B.

    see you soon,

  • Video metadata date is incorrect: the value and not of creation date sharing

    10 iOS, iPhone 6 +, Windows 10. Photos and videos are shared through iCloud, but NOT stored in iCloud.

    Once synced on my PC, the photos and videos have a truncated name (for example, "016a1f2e11dfcc680e1009cb96346b67678fb2c6bc.jpg"). Of course, this is not acceptable at all to me when I organize them on my NAS: I prefer a significant, sortable name, as "2016-09-16 18-15-20259 (Apple iPhone 6 more) .jpg.

    To do this, I simply read the EXIF information directly from the image, and I rename the image accordingly. No problem for the photos.

    But for videos... I do the same, in the world, but with less information. I can extract only creation date/time from metadata of the videos, not the unit that captured video. Sad, but I have not found anything else, and at least it's automatic.

    Recently, I found that the date in the video file is NOT correct: this is the timecode of SHARING via iCloud, not the timecode CAPTURE. I have therefore some videos with a delta of two weeks between the true creation as well as the "official" date

    I checked this on my phone: date is correct (once the video is no longer in full screen, the date is displayed at the top of the screen, and it is 'the' date I'm looking).

    So, question: How can I get the date of the 'real' creation of all these videos on my PC? It exists: it appears on the iPhone that took the video (a woman) AND mine. Information is 'lost' only on the PC, but I think it's a problem of reading of 'bad' metadata (I use FFMPEG to get currently), or the wrong file for reading (perhaps within an iTunes/database file, but didn't find, not found in the registry or the other).

    Best solution is to find something operate locally, through the command line, to do it in batch mode. A solution of GUI PEUT agree if I can automate with AutoIt (i.e. should not be a native Win32 application, not Java, .NET, GTK, QT and so on, OR must have an export feature). A solution based on the web is not suitable, but can be less boring to review each video one after another to manually check the date.

    Thanks in advance.

    In my opinion, the only way to fix this is with third-party software like this one.

  • Why don't the addition of metadata to be added manually in the iTunes library song change metadata in Windows Explorer and anywhere else?

    Adding metadata to a song in the iTunes library has no effect anywhere else (as in Windows Explorer or the Groove music).

    I would like to know if I have disabled this in error or if it is not guaranteed to all visitors.

    Where it is not provided to customers, I would like to know how iTunes stores this metadata and whether it can be automatically sent to the library of Windows.

    Thank you.

    A reason of changes committed to iTunes cannot be is covered in the tip of the user, fix the iTunes for Windows security permissions but iTunes usually returns to the original data if you probably don't see this particular problem. The other possibility is of several tags.

    Several tags (Mp3 files only)

    The ID3 specification allows files to have several tags in different versions and languages, but iTunes does not work properly with simple tags. When multiple tags are present it can sometimes do not apply updates to the tag that reads back (probably update one of the others in the file) and it is also possible that the iPod and iTunes may have different rules for the tag that they give priority to. This could lead to situations where everything is properly organized in iTunes, but then inexplicably collapses on an iPod, or tracks that display different information in Windows Explorer or another media player. There are tags 3rd party editors that allow to manipulate several tags, but I don't have a casual recommendation. A workaround in iTunes is to use the context menu convert the ID3 Tags... > None a few times to remove all the labels, then convert ID3 Tags... > v2.3 to build a cool tag with information still held in the iTunes database. I've read in the past that iTunes is not completely compatible with the specification v2.4, although this may be the case, support is more however for v2.3 is widespread, then I would say using v2.3 to v2.4. All embedded work will be deleted so it must be replaced if wanted. For Windows users running a script named CreateFolderArt before and after the cleaning process tag should handle this.

    Note that some data, for example the sides and the counties of game, is only stored in the database internal iTunes and not surrounded by tags.

    Also, is it is shortened to "set Date and time?

    There is no predefined shortcut, but you can add one yourself.

    • Select "App shortcuts" in the left column and click on ' + '.
    • In the 'Application' menu, select 'Photos.app. Then enter the title of "set Date and Time...» "and a combination of keys.

Based on what you said, it seems that you may be having problems with sharing photos by mail directly from the Photos for OS X app. Because this process is not sharing the metadata you need, I suggest you export the images in a lossless, like TIFF or PNG format, because they work better. Then join these images to e-mail and test if the metadata have come through this way.

  • Where are stored the metadata of photos iOS10?

    Hello

    Photos in iOS10 is great in face detection and recognition of objects. I was wondering if recognizable faces and objects (metadata) is stored in iCloud or only locally on the device.

    In other words is the available metadata cross-device (iPhone / iPad / Macbook etc.)?

    It seems at the local level unless something was wrong with my devices.

    I had the installer all the names on the faces and combined if necessary faces on my iPhone running iOS 10. And now I see that I need to redo all that work again on the iPad too. It's very annoying. What is the use of a photo of iCloud library if you do not synchronize these data. This means that whenever you add a photo of someone, you need to update data on all your devices face.
