OSX Photo keywords: They incorporate in metadata?

• Add the folder names in the path of the image as keywords separated from image metadata

  Hi all, I tried to find a solution online and customize the amazing Paul Riggott script, but I'm not able to make it work the way I need.

  I have my customer images organized in the structure of folders and subfolders. For all images (thousands of files in the subfolders a lot) I need a script for Adobe Bridge to take all the way from the image, separated from individual files paths file and store these records in the form of keywords separated in the metadata of the image.

  For example, I have the image.jpg/Work/Job01/share/Photos and image B.jpg file in the folder/Work/Job02/PartB/Photos. After I run the script from Adobe Bridge on file/work, I want to have for the two added images keywords

  Size: Work; Job01; Share; Photos

  Notice: Work; Job02; PartB; Photos

  As 'Work' and 'Pictures' folders are usually present, it would be nice to have the opportunity to put these two exact strings in script and exclude keywords added, but it is not necessary :-)

  The bellows of script adds one keyword ~photos/Work/Job01/share/Photos, for what is necessary is to divide and make key words separated substrings. This would allow me to move pictures anywhere and still be able to filter as a group structure (as number of employment, or part name).

  Please, could someone show me how to update this script? Or is there another solution that I just haven't found yet?

  Thank you, Petr

• does anyone know how to number the photos when they are exported so someone can choose the peak of number

  Anyone know how to number the photos when they are exported from LR, so someone can choose the photo they like with a number

  Sorry took with the last answer.

  More simple form used something like-Sequence_Filename number suffix

  If an image as _ABC0987.nef will become 0001_0987.nef and 0002_0988.nef, etc.

  Ask your customer to give you the full file name. The suffix indicates the original file.

  (I hope that you only need to search in a folder and do not have a bunch of images named the same that would cause problems!)

• Selection of photos by smart status overview, metadata changed, etc.

  I want to be able to select the photos inside Lightroom based on criteria including the debt program but don't let not select you, for instance without previews images, smart shots that have had their metadata changed outwardly, etc..  The system knows what images they are but don't let not consider you a set or act upon them as a whole (building previews smart, AFAIK requires a manual selection in a universal operation or a set catalogue up-to-date, you cannot select only those without intelligent insights).  Because the system keeps track of the State, it would be nice if you could choose this status to view or act upon them as a set.  If anyone knows how to do this, I would appreciate it.

  You must look smart Collections. Two of these examples are available in the smart collection criteria.

• Keyword renaming requires a metadata record?

  When I rename a keyword, do I need to register the metadata when I sidecar files? And what happens if the photos are offline when I do?

  John Gregson

  If you want the correctly named version of the keyword embedded in files or XMO then Yes, you would save the metadata. It goes the same for images offline.

• iCloud not able to download the Photos because they are too small

  I'm trying to install iCloud and download all my photos from the photos app. However, about 500 (out 3,00) cannot be downloaded, because they are "too small". Is there a solution to this? Also once I have downloaded them will be safe to remove them from the photos app to create a space on my mac?

  See you soon.

  I have not heard of "too small" subject problem and cannot help with that.

  Regarding

  Also once I have downloaded them will be safe to remove them from the photos app to create a space on my mac?

  Note If you are using iCloud photo library (Apple menu > System Preferences > iCloud > Photos > iCloud photo library) all photos you delete app Photos on your Mac will also be deleted photos at https://www.icloud.com/ and any other device connected to this library to iCloud. Apple offers no option only cloud storage for Photos. iCloud library is primarily designed for photos of synchronization between devices rather than as cloud storage only. You can reduce the amount of storage space required on your Mac by opening the photo and then click on Preferences in the menu called Photos, click on iCloud in the bar at the top of the preferences window and select "Optimize Mac Storage."

• If I exported my photos when I import them into another library of Photos, will they still be live photos?

  I plan to export my entire library of Photos on a hard drive, that I will then use import my library to another library of Photos on another computer (with the latest updates). When I export my photos (choosing File > export > export Photos X...), they will still be "live pictures" that is when I import them will be powered?

  For sure if you simply move a copy of the entire library to the new system, you will have all - export and import loses a lot of information and can lose quality if you're wrong - interconnect systems and drag the library photos of the current system to the new system images folder - or use an external hard drive to the Mac OS extended (journaled) format to move in all

• IOS/OSX photo library

  Hello.

  I recently spent on 'iCloud photo library' and 'optimize storage iPhone '. I currently do not have access to a Mac, but I hope it will be once the MacBook is updated for the month of June. When I start to use the Photos on OS X app, I select 'iCloud photo library' & 'Download the originals for mac' so all my photos will be downloaded and stored locally, as well as on iCloud?

  Thanks in advance.

  It is preferable, Yes. Work with your photos is faster, if you do not need to download icloud before changing them or their navigation. You can use them in browser media in other applications, whether they are stored locally.

  And you can keep a local backup of your photos with Time Machine, if you select 'download the originals for mac '.
