Keywords in Photos: I'm the only one?

I am a heavy user of Photos with 20 000 (non-professional) pictures in my library. I spent hundreds of hours of editing, new date and keywording photos pictures (and iPhotos before that). I had a very rough transition from iPhotos to Photos, lost randomly some images, lost random meta data. I am running the latest version of iOS and were at the Apple store dozens of times trying to address any inconsistencies in my photo library. They tried everything short of the nuclear option of pictures of wiping and re - install new, no back-up, which is probably damaged. This option is not possible for me given I would lose all the work that I gave to this labor of love. At this point, I just hope that someone smarter Apple will address these glitches, so I can save my sanity.

I'm struggling with the loss of functionality in the Photos that I wait patiently for features to be restored (securities transfer of lots, bulk as of a date change, etc.) In the meantime, keywords are sent adjustments. Keywords that I delete do not disappear and appear in searches. I have four key words called '4 star' who all have different pictures in them. I sometimes manually put the different lots '4 stars' key words a single keyword '4 star', but a new keyword is often re-creation. In other words, it's a manual solution sometimes, but only temporary. According to the issue of not really deleting keywords, keywords because duplicate like tribbles makes the problem even worse. I have at least half a dozen keywords in double at some point. Replication problem of keyword seems to be more common with the keywords 'stars' who were previously only stars, but there are many other duplicate keywords.

My question is: does anyone else have these questions, and if so, did you understand any workaround? I am beyond frustrated. I went full-Apple and full-pictures for this project, and can't give up now. Other chronic problems with Photos?

P.S. I have also submitted comments from the Apple but don't hold my breath.

Can you please tell us something about the origin of your photo library?  All my problems with keywords in the Photos had their problem in Aperture and my photo stream.

Your photo library a new library, was born in pictures, with new photos that have never been in another library, or did you migrate your library somewhere.

If your library consists only of new photos, and all the keywords have been affected in the Photos, it should help to use the keywords and click on "Edit keywords".  You can use the edit mode to remove all unused keywords.

But if your library has been migrated from a different library (iPhoto, Aperture) and allowed you to open write the key words in the original images, you're stuck with old advertising keywords, misspellings in them. Photos cannot remove key words written to the original captain of the files.

I used exiftool from the Terminal to remove all the original files of the masters key words and started in Photos.

  • Tasks under glass? I know I'm not the only one...

    I just buy my Apple Watch 30/03/16 and today I noticed these green spots under the glass and they weren't there yesterday? I did not get the wet watch and it works fine. I have reduced transparency and makes the stains disappear. I'm the only one who thinks it's ok or acceptable? Why should I have to disable the option installed by apple to make the sleep function properly? I did some research and see that I'm not the only one that this has happened? Do I have to send the watch back for a new or what is happening for all watches Apple? I really like the watch I was wondering what everyone else thought?

    Hello

    It's perfectly normal - it is not a problem or an error.

    You are referring to an intentional visual effect that is designed to repeat the contents of the underlying screen.

    The effect appears every time that see you some screens that sit on top of the other, for example:

    -For displaying Notification Center (dragging down when you view the screen of the watch face);

    -For reading a notification;

    -For the opening of eyes (by sliding upward when you view the screen of the watch face).

    -By the use of Siri.

    The underlying mirror not precisely the content of the display function. Instead, it adds a blur effect / ghosts. It can serve as a subtle, useful reminder that you are viewing - for example - looks or Notification Center, each of which can be exited by sliding downwards or upwards on the screen.

    If you want to disable this feature:

    -On your iPhone in the app shows, go to: Watch My > general > accessibility - turn on / enable the setting to reduce transparency.

    This setting stops the effect to be shown on the display of your watch.

  • BlackBerry Q10 speaker/Mic stopped working - I'm the only one? Help!

    Hello

    A few weeks ago the mic on "speaker phone mode" on my phone stopped working.

    Phone works very well in phone mode, but to try the speaker - a total nogo button!

    WTF and everything!

    For me, this is one of the most important features on the phone!

     

    Then I realized the microphone for recording videos has also disappeared.

    When I try to use it on the phone calls, looks to an endless loop.

    Here's what I've done so far:

    1 deleted all apps purchased for nothing.

    2. rebooted, restarted, pulled battery... nothing.

    3 reset the device... Yes, completely done... nothing.

    4. has tried to put in headphones, removing the headphones (seen this somewhere)... nothing.

    Someone at - it this?

    Am I the only one?

    Great thanks - love my Q10, but need the speaker (and return buttons!)

    Go to the App help click test and see if you can test the microphone. Of it fail the test, you will need to contact your carrier for warranty repair.

  • BlackBerry smartphones am I the only one?

    Am I the only one who has no problem with my 9700? I got it for months. Make sure that I have back up. Get the latest updates (even when I'm on AT & T and they are not depasse.602.938), and make sure Desktop Manager is updated. And I've never had a problem. I downloaded the applications I need and use and about 120 free meg (won about 10 meg with updated jour.938). My keys are loose, trackball works very well and receiving the phone is perfect... even with AT & t. so fine autonomy (it enters mode standby in the case). But it is above all a phone. If I need heavy calculation, I have my laptop. I put 6 OS on it, but if I don't, I'll just remove it. I'll get a touchscreen.

    I know too many people who have and had iphones and droids with nothing else problems. They are all complaining about poor reception, dead screen and terrible autonomy pixels. But they like to play with apps, they can download. Guess I'm just tired of reading all the thing that people don't like and it's time to see good things for a change.

    After having mobile phones for more than 20 years, yes I had also big car phones, I learned a lesson. A phone is a phone, not a full-size computer. And if you have a problem with it, try the easy thing... Google it. You will discover that if you encounter a problem, someone else has probably had the sam problem and solved.

    In the end, if you want a good all around business phone, get a Blackberry. If you not interested the business end of it, but want to have something with which you can play, then get a droid or iphone. Or, as I'm starting to see more and more, get a Blackberry to work with and a droid or iphone to take with you when you're bored.

    Sorry to the wide spout, but I can't be the only one out there who feels that way.

    I had no problems at all. I don't use headphones, however.

The image only I intentionally a license is # 77107461. Help, please...

  • So my question was the only one who has not responded to our days, nice...

    I asked a question this morning and he is now 23:13 and I noticed that my question was the only one who has not received a response. My first time here, so I guess I'll have to continue to look elsewhere. My client site is screwed on all cell phones touch using the Chrome browser, so if anyone knows the answer, it would be very appreciated to receive an answer:

    Hello

    I created desktop, Tablet and mobile versions of a Web site. I looked at the site on my Surface Pro 3 and half left of the screen shows the site, the right half is empty. What happens on other touchscreen tablets as well. After searching through a large number of forums, I realized that the problem is with Chrome. I looked on the Surface Pro 3 with I.E. site and it fills the screen and looks like it should. I have not found a solution to this on the forums, I see responses by Adobe on some forums saying "it is a matter of Chrome. Chrome is used by about 70% of users, then it is a big problem. Is there a fix for this yet? By releasing sensitive Muse I can redo this site but meanwhile I need a fix, the site is unacceptable to my client when saw touch-screen computers laptop thank you.

    Go to the properties of the Site. Select the tablet. Uncheck the box "redirect office" and re - publish.

    II have tried very hard to get used to draw Adobe, after love with Adobe ideas since the day wherever she launched.

    just the fact that there is no button to remove the last action is so confused. I can't count how many times I slide a return and I see a line instead of the last deleted action, and the contrary takes place also. I even liked the better graphics.

    I am on my knees. ADOBE, if you please, bring back updated for Adobe ideas. maybe having two apps autour isn't the worst idea.

  • I cannot perform certain functions because he says that I'm not an administrator, but it's my computer and I'm the only one who uses this computer__

    I cannot perform certain functions because he says that I'm not an administrator, but it's my computer and I'm the only person who uses this computer

    What are the functions? More global changes (changes to the system, software installation) require an elevation in Vista/Windows 7.

    Changes to the built-in Vista administrator account

    http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=942956

    User - recommended configuration (Vista and Win7) accounts

    You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all other Windows 7, Vista, and modern operating systems are operating systems multi-user with integrated system of accounts as default Administrator and comments. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

    In particular, you do not want account only one user with administrator privileges on Vista and Windows 7 because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult. It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but it may require more work you want to do. Better not to get into a bad situation at first.

    The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

    If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null). MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!
