Lightroom :: Saving Metadata To File Changes Original?

Jul 1, 2012

Isn't writing metadata to the XMP space of a file (jpeg or dng) altering the file?  I assumed that non-destructive meant not changing the original file in any way, and this rewrites the file and thus changes the modification date.  And if the Develop settings are included, then doesn't that confuse things as to which version will be displayed by an application that opens it?  Do I need to store the original somewhere else?  Or am I misunderstanding how this all works?

Lightroom :: How To Force Snapshots And Virtual Copies To Read Metadata From Original Raw File

Mar 11, 2012

Is there any way to force Snapshots and Virtual Copies to read metadata from the original raw file after an update of the same?

I had to change the lens name on some Leica M9 files to correct an operator (me) error, and I did it by editing the exif data with an exif editor and then forcing LR4 to read the metadata from the file. This worked well for everithing but the snapshots and the virtual copies on which the metadata remain as originally registered, unchanged.

Lightroom :: How To Save Metadata To The File

Dec 10, 2011

I wonder when, and if, it is necessary to save metadata to the file?  I copy RAW images from the camera card to DNG data type.  I once accidentally deleted an edited image with unsaved metadata.   I discovered the image I re-imported from my recycle bin was the original image without the updates I applied.  I assume if I had saved the metadata for the image, the edits would have been brought back.  Other than losing edits and other metadata when accidentally deleting an image, is there any other reasons I should save metadata to the file?
 
In a related question, is the original image without the metadata accessible in any other software except Lightroom if the metadata has been saved to the image file?

EDIT: I tried deleting the local XMP files and I get the same result

Lightroom :: Save Metadata To File

Dec 5, 2013

how the "save metadata to file" works. I had a corrupt catalog and thought I lost all my edits. I then read about this save feature and how it can protect me from a corrupt catalog by saving my edits. Does doing this overwrite my original file? Does saving the metadata destructively save the edits to the file? Is there a way to retrieve my original file after "saving metadata to the file" or do I need to save the orginals on a seperate harddrive?

Lightroom :: How To Save The Metadata Into A DNG File

Jul 17, 2013

I got the message, "Photos have read-only access," when trying to save the metadata into a DNG file. I'm on windows 7, and just upgraded to Lightroom 5. The files in Windows have full write and read ability. What am I doing wrong? Or what box do I need to check or uncheck to be able to save my metadata into the DNG files. My catalogue is on an internal drive. The actual images are on an external drive.

Lightroom :: When Export File Size Is Substantially Smaller Than Original

How come the file size when I export from Lightroom is substantially smaller than the original file size?  My original image file was 6MB, but when exported from zlightroom the file size for that file is only 2MB.  I want to export full size files so that they can be published or enlarged.

Lightroom :: Metadata Change After Edit Original?

Sep 9, 2012

When I take say a TIFF file that has been imported into Lightroom and edit in PS by choosing "Edit Original" and than save the edit in PS, when I get back to Lightroom the image has a metadata error icon on it.  When I click on the icon it asks if it should apply the disk or Lightroom metadata.  I click on disk and all seems well.  But why is it doing this and is there a way to get it not to do so?  Is it correct to use the disk metadata?

Lightroom :: 3 - Replacing Photos In Catalog Leaving Original Metadata Intact

Feb 11, 2012

I have about 50 images in a LR3 catalog. I modified all the metadata for each. They are all jpegs and were pre-processed by a specialized image editing program before import. I now find I have to replace all 50 with new versions. I really don't want to re-do all the metadata. Is there any way to have LR overwrite the originals leaving the original metadata intact? The file names are the same.

Photoshop Elements :: Won't Save TIFF File Over Original / But Brings Up Save As Window

Mar 20, 2014

URL....I am using PSE 12 as a photo editor for Aperture 3.5.1 and the photo is duplicated (as a tiff) in Aperture and PSE editor opens with the image.  When I close the file and say to save the file it brings up the save as window.
 
I tell PSE 12 to "on first save -- save over current file" it now brings up the "save as" window and won't save over the file (changes the file type from .tiff to .tif)

I am wondering if there is a way to put the old save method back into the new gimp 2.7.3. I would like to be able to export to a new file format and automatically be using that file instead of the original file that I have just opened. If there is a plugin like this that would be great.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Unable To Save File - Losing Original File Afterwards

Feb 12, 2013

I found this error a bit strange, my colleague it trying to save a file and this error keeps on coming out (see attachments). When we try to save it, it only saves as a temp file. When we try to open up the temp file and try to save it, it still doesn't allow us to do. Also, when we cancel the save, the original file will be gone and he will lost all of his data. Below are the specs of the computer and version of the AutoCAD.

Computer: DELL Precision T5500

OS: Windows 7 Ult

AutoCAD Version: 2011

Also, we're using ProSteel Series 3 as well. We tried saving the file using ProSteel and just AutoCAD but it didn't do the trick. I've tried some options (listed below) that might get it to work but still no luck.

1. Restart the computer.

2. Repair / Reinstall AutoCAD.

3. Give permission to the folder (read from the forum).

Photoshop Elements :: Save Metadata To File?

Feb 5, 2013

I am finding that going to File>Save Metadata to File is not really needed.  I changed some metadata like the caption and notes and I don't choose that option in the menu. I then examine the file in Photoshop, and the metadata has already been updated. The metadata gets updated by itself for JPG files, and the XMP file in RAW files gets updated too without me doing anything extra.
 
What is Save Metadata to File good for then? Am I missing something?

Lightroom :: Metadata Not Updated On Re-export

Jul 7, 2012

LR 4.1 latest ver.I post process a CR2 file in Lightroom. I then add text to the Title field.Export  as jpg using a pre-defined export preset.
 
I then notice that I have a typo in the Title field.
 
Correct the typo / text in the CR2 parent file using Lightroom.

Re-export again (same export preset)... answering yes to overwrite file (and Yes to all metadata).

Surprise ...surprise... the Title data is not updated in the exported file (ie by viewing the metadata  in the g or e view.
 
I delete the jpg

Export again ...yes... same preset export settings.

Metadata on jpg is correct.
 
So, it looks to me that Lightroom is not updating the metadata when exporting and overwriting an existing image.
 
Is this normal or a bug.

Lightroom :: 4 - Export Function Is Removing Metadata?

Sep 15, 2012

Building a new website in BigFolio.
 
I'm a photographer but not all that computer savy. In fact unless I'm wrong just discovered that running images through "Save for web" in PS6 removes metadata as well so images load faster. That's what I want to do but it seems time consuming.
 
So my question is in the export function of LR4 is removing the metadata there doing the same thing because if so it would be tons faster.

Lightroom :: Use Image Metadata For (put In Subfolder) Export Option

Nov 6, 2013

Would it be possible to automatically set the name of the folder in the "put in subfolder" export option, based on that image metadata (or on a preset, as it is, for example, for filenames)? Maybe a plugin? - image in "summer 2013" gets exported in "summer 2013 jpg" subfolder, where "summer 2013" is taken from the "folder" metadata and "jpg" either from the filetype or manually added.

Lightroom :: Can't Find IPTC Metadata After Aperture Export

Apr 24, 2013

I am exporting approximately 25,000 images from Aperture 2.1.4 and importing them into Lightroom 4.  I started working with my small projects of about 300 images to test.  From Aperture, I exported the Master files with the Sidecar (IPTC4.XMP) files.  [My masters are a mix of .jpgs and .NEF, and I read that the jpgs don't always carry the meta data through].  I successfully imported the master files into Lightroom and ran the "Read Metadata from File" command.  I also exported the keywords file from Aperture and imported those into Lightroom as well. 
 
Prior to exporting, I edited one file in Aperture by entering "test caption", "test location", "test keyword", "test copyright" etc. into several of the IPTC fields.  These fields are NOT appearing in the equivalent Lightroom fields.  I checked the .XMP file (using text edit) and it does contain the correct "test values".  I am getting all of the EXIF metadata, but none of my custom values.

Lightroom :: How To Save 4 Metadata On Video Files

Mar 10, 2012

I've just had a problem with LR4. Instaled the full version a few days ago on my old computer. Just got a new computer where I instaled LR4 and imported all my latest work and noticed that all video (.mov) metadata were not saved on to files (Photos are OK!!!) So all editing and rating/flags/color filter I've done is gone.
 
Thought that I forgot to save Metadata on my old computer and did a couple of tests.

I did some rating and some color filters on my actual catalog then saved the metadata a couple of times. Removed from the Library and re-imported and the metadata were not there again. Did the same to Photos and is fine!
 
LR4 does not write XMP to video files?
 
Just lost hours of work on cuting and rating a video Job since my old computer is gone.

Lightroom :: Effects Of Delayed Metadata Save?

Sep 24, 2012

I have not recently been saving my metadata to file.  I decide to turn this option on in preferances and it took a while for it all data  to be written to the files.  Most of my files start in Lightroom and get worked on with Photoshop layers, saved as TIFF, and reimported into Lightroom from other folders.  My question is, if I went back to Lightroom and made some changes to develop settings to see what it would look like with different settings in Lightroom, didn't use the settings in the previously exported file but left them there in Lightroom since the file had already been exported and saved as TIFF..... can now saving the metadata to file change the way the finished file looks since the settings are different than those originally used to process the file (of note, I do not have save develop metadata to file for TIFF, PSD tyurned on).
