  Metadata > export keywords on one machine

  Metadata > import keywords on the other

  Will share the key words in their entiretly.

  If you want to share just the 'sets', they can be copied from one Machine to the other. Depending on what platform and the operating system, are you sure they are in different locations:

• Exporting keyword sets

  Is it possible to export keyword for a computer games and import them into Lightroom on another?

  Jens,

  If I understand you correctly, you are looking for a transfer of the fixedkeword and not the keywords found in the list.

  The keyword sets are stored in the LR presets folder (on Windows it comes to '%appdata%\Adobe\Lightroom\Keyword games'. You can copy them to a computer in the same folder on another computer.

  Another solution would be to choose "Store Presets with Catalog", but this has implications more far away (see here).

• After having upgraded a catalogue-LR3 LR4 - your keywords arrived properly - assigned to the images?

  I just noticed that my list of keywords has arrived in good shape after upgrading, but the number of images to which they have been applied, does not.

  Contrary to what http://forums.Adobe.com/message/4269602#4269602 where it was said that zero images would have requested the help of keywords, I have many for whom the LR4 catalog says just I wish 1 image tagged with him

  It's very strange.

  And disturbing.

  For one of my use case, where I would use the keyword to restructure my files as smart collections, it's easy (but bulky) of rework.

  For many others, it would not, as I really watch content (people in image, instead of the face recognition).

  Has anyone of you have a similar problem?

  I'm not sure if I should read metadata from files to correct... need to check through LR3 first, if I had been more consistent in the backup that I thought I was...

  There's a pattern to this keyword attribution error: if I have just 1 image labeled, it belongs to the key in alphabetical order and is marked by mistake with that extra.

  Can give you a simple example of how this looks in LR3 and after conversion into LR4? Thank you!

• Export keywords in Lightroom 5 problem

  I recently converted Lightroom 4 to 5.  I just noticed that not all of my keywords are exported to my jpeg file.  For example, I have the following keywords in Lightroom; Horizontal, landscape, national forest, Scenic.  My exported jpeg only has the keyword landscape.

  In the library Module, when I click on the drop down keywords and select "Will Export", I see that the keyword of the landscape.  I don't know what this 'feature' is all about.  Can someone explain it to me.  I need to be able to export all keywords.

  This problem seems to be consistent and I have a test set up file so I can repeat the problem.  Only certain keywords are not exported.

  I believe that the method to change things in the world is to export the key words in a text file and then using a text editor to remove the flag so they export not keyword, then re - import the text keyword in LR.

  As I'm at work right now, I can't look at the details. If no one responds, I'll look it up when I get home.

• Export of non-exportable keywords

  In my hierarchy of keywords I group words under the words of category that should not be included on the export and therefore "to export" is unchecked for them. LR 4 includes anyway and I spend a lot of time to remove them in Bridge. No idea how to do this job the way it's supposed to?

  Thank you.

  You use Bridge to examine metadata of:

  a. the files that have been exported from a LR 4 catalog by using the file > export command?

  b. the original cataloged files.

  The "Include on export" option for a parent keyword is obeyed for a) (file > Export), while it has no effect on (b) registration of metadata in the original files).

  For (b) (registration of metadata in the original files), you can partially exclude keywords parents by unchecking 'Export words containing' for all the keywords of the child.  This will remove the keywords parents of the XMP:Subject and IPTC:Keywords of the metadata fields, which is what most of the other applications look, but parents should always be included in XMP:HierarchicalSubject.  Since the bridge (at Bridge CS4) resembles the XMP:HierarchicalSubject field, it will necessarily see the keywords parents independently.

• Bridge of export keyword incomplete - missing of any 'trees '.

  I'm trying to export KW Bridge (4) as a tab-delimited text file.

  Export seems fine, but dependent on entire trees of KW end completely disappeared.

  Screenshot of bridge KW (note the 'Journey' tree):

  

  Here's how this operation exports:

  

  Note the 'Trip' tree is missing, the whole direction of 'Europe' and the sub-branches. The «...» "indicates properly exported KW which I cut like no illustrates the problem.

  Have KW handling set to the default (read the hierarchical keywords).

  Is the problem related to the existence of the 'Favorite places' tree before the 'Trip' tree that contains the KW 'Europe' 'France' - and the appearance of several other of the 'journey' secondary keywords tree under other trees?

  My only interest in the hierarchical use of the KW is to facilitate the entry and I want to be able to use the same file in Lightroom KW - but that the KW file is not exported the way I expected to import into LR there is a lot of KW > entered KW which are not useful.

  Thank you

  Looking at the tree I see the items you are exporting are a different font.  What is c?  Are they italicized?  If so, they are not permanent and cannot be exported.

• LR4 - hierarchical keyword metadata reading problem

  I am new to LR and LR4. I'm trying to get out, but I found a problem/issue/bug with keywords.

  I use hierarchical keywords stored as metadata in my photos. Between the levels of the hierarchy delimiter character is the character ' / '. LR4 recognizes this, when you import photos into the catalog. If the LR4 catalog correctly reflects the hierarchy when importing.

  However, I was expecting LR4 also recognize the separator "/" reading the metadata of the files. But it doesn't work. It simply creates a new flat keyword string.

  For example, suppose I have a keyword with the hierarchy: events/holiday/Christmas. If I import the photos with the keyword of Christmas, the hierarchy is correctly created in the catalog.

  However, if later, I read the form of metadata, a photo that has this keyword, then the LR4 will create a new flat keyword string: "events/holiday/Christmas.

  This isn't the desired behavior. Am I missing a setting somewhere in the LR4, or do I have to manually fix all the photos I've read the new metadata of?

  Thank you.

  This problem has been fixed in Lightroom 4.1, which is now available.  To download the 4.1 update, go to the Help menu in Lightroom and choose "Check for Updates".

  Thank you

• Export of keywords

  How can I export my keywords so I can import it into another application (Capture One)?

  Go to the menu metadata. Near the part below the menu is an option to export keywords, it is exported as a text file, it would be appropriate to Capture One?

• How to remove the option to tag keyword 'Persons' of all the keywords in a hierarchy?

  Somehow, I scored my keywords 'Places' by mistake (I have about 100 of them under the keyword Places) with the keyword of the person checked - I probably used "Convert keywords keywords person" by mistake. Now, I want to cancel it. , I want the function reverse ' convert keywords to no keywords.

  Y at - it an easy way to do this:

  1. Modify each keyword under My Places keyword and uncheck the person OR
  2. Export all keywords, to publishing and importation to hide in

  Thank you

  Unfortunately, there is no supported way to uncheck the attribute of the person, other than to change the keywords one by one.  With the help of metadata > keyword export and import keywords will usually not what you want, since the import keywords always creates new keywords with no picture assigned to them.  (And in any case, the exported text file does not have many of the attributes keyword, including the attribute of the person).

  Over the years, many people complained about the lack of batch editing of keywords in LR, but Adobe has added none of the options.  And it is not possible for a plugin developer provide functionality, because LR does not provide the necessary hooks.   So please add your vote and notice to this feature in the Adobe official feedback forum request: Lightroom: better management of keywords | Community customer Photoshop family

• How many keywords can be asigned to a photo.

  I'm scanning "analog" photos, shot on negative and positive film. It will take a few months before the end, and in order to check them I want to assign keywords if I can easily find specific information. How many keywords will accept Photos, and they are with the image or in a separate file?

  Thanks for your help.

  Hans

  no limit except it can't is complicated to use if you have a lot - and they are stored in the database of Photos and when you export a photo if you select this option to export keywords, they are added to the exported photo IPTC fields

• How can I make keywords from Lightroom 2 to Lightroom CC 2015?

  I just installed Lightroom CC 2015.  How can I make all my keywords in Lightroom 2 and have them in my new version?

  Tom Bowie

  The key words are stored in the catalog.  Just move the catalog and your words keys will always be there

  OR

  If you mean that you can export a list of keywords to a new catalogue - Yes - Menu in the menu bar metadata > export keywords

  Kind regards

• Keywording in LR

  Hi all

  I am responsible for creating key words for all our thousands of assets and are trying to decide if LR works for us. A big question is the keywords from a catalog or a collection can be exported to a spreadsheet Xcel? If so, how it is done. Need to know ASAP, so I'm hoping that someone reads this and can help me. Thank you very much.

  David

  Keywords from a catalog or a collection can be exported to a spreadsheet Xcel?

  Yes. !

  1. export the list of keywords in a text file.   Menu > metadata > export keywords.

  

  2. open the text file in MS-Excel format.  You must set the file type "all files (*.)" *)"to find a".txt"file

  

  3. follow the three steps in Excel to convert the text file to Excel format.

  And you have it. !

  

  

  

• To access the hierarchical keywords within a plugin

  Hello

  with photo: getFormattedMetadata("keywordTags") or photo: getFormattedMetadata("keywordTagsForExport"), I get the keywords to a photo. But how can I get the hierarchical keywords?

  Thank you

  Photo: getRawMetadata ("keywords") provides the table of LrKeywords applied to the photo.  Then call the keyword: getParent() repeatedly to get the keywords ancestor.

• Preset for the keyword-tag in LR5

  Hello

  does anyone know how to preset the ticks in the AREA of keyword TAG?

  See the image below.

  

  Reason: I would like to change the preset to: only graduation in the first box and the other two empty, while the automatic preset is / was all the three boxes checked as soon as I sign a new keyword.

  Would be a great help. THX

  The system that I use:

  MACBookPro 2.66 GHz mid-2010 with 8GBYTE of RAM

  LR 5.7.1

  OS X 10.11.2

  This means, that klicks change by exporting keywords and no way to set this configuration in the stone for the application?

  No, export a photo does not affect the default values for the keyword checkboxes.   The first three include on export, export containing keywords, and export synonyms, always default for new keywords to check.

  Over the years, many people have complained about the inability to edit several keywords at the same time and change these attributes, but Adobe did not act on these complaints.
