Lightroom :: How To Auto Set Keyword When Exporting Image

Nov 24, 2011

I like to keep track of what I've exported and uploaded to Flickr and other sites and what I've sent out to people. It seems tagging my images with some appropriate keyword is the best way to do this. Such keywords as "Flickr" or "Facebook", etc. But I the only way I can do this is to remember to manually apply each such keyword when I do the export. It would seem to me to be wonderfully simply if I could, in the export form, do something like "Add keywords:" and list keywords that would be added to each image exported through that form.
 
Is there another way to track such usage other than with keywords?

Lightroom :: Stop Auto Adding Of Keyword At Import?

Jun 7, 2012

I have no import presets created (verified by the import screen saying "none" when importing), yet LR adds one (the same one) keyword to all photos imported.  I have 4.1, but this has been happening in previous versions.  How to stop this?? It is very time consuming to always have to remove this keyword.

Lightroom :: Exporting Keyword Synonyms To Photoshop / External Editor?

May 27, 2012

I've gone through a lot of trouble to create keyword lists for use within Lightroom 4, but I'm finding that I lose all of the synonyms I've set on the photo when I export my photo to Photoshop for further tweaks. 
 
Exporting from Lightroom directly properly includes all synonyms, but if I use CTRL-E to open the photo in an external editor, only the defined keywords are exported with the image.  It seems unless I do all of my editing within Lightroom, I'm going to lose these synonyms.

Lightroom :: Focus Jumps To Keyword Filter Box When Clicking A Keyword

Aug 17, 2010

Long, long, keyword hierarchy.  Clicking on a keyword takes the focus back up to the keyword filter box.  Usually happens if I've used the filter box to narrow down the keywords that are visible. Continues even after the filter box has been cleared.  Doesn't happen all the time though.  It is a real pain when trying to double click a keyword to edit it as the first click or the double click causes the list to refresh showing only the top entries.  The second click (of the double click) then causes whatever keyword is now under the pointer to be keyword to be edited - NOT the keyword under the pointer when I started the double click.
 
I've seen this happen in both LR3.0 and LR3.2RC.
 
Windows XP, 32bit.

Lightroom :: Syncing Keyword Changes To LR3 Catalogs Among Different Users (using A Common Keyword Set)

Jul 5, 2012

I'm new to LightRoom and am glad to have found this great resource. Onto the issue at hand:
 
An ongoing office project is using LR3 to catalog 30 years' worth of images gathered from various media. Some are scans of slides, negatives, or prints; others are images straight from a digital camera. We have three people working on this cataloging project. The lead guy has created keywords on his computer that he uses to tag these images. Is there any way to make sure the keywords he's using on his machine sync with and are available to the other users of the image catalog? If not, is there a file that would have to be shared among the three users to make that functionality happen?

Lightroom :: 4.4 - Library Filter By Keyword - Unable To Select Keyword

Jan 2, 2014

Lightroom version: 4.4 [891433]
Operating system: Windows 7 Home Premium Edition
Version: 6.1 [7601]
Application architecture: x64
System architecture: x64
Logical processor count: 4
Processor speed: 2.6 GHz
Built-in memory: 6087.8 MB
Real memory available to Lightroom: 6087.8 MB
Real memory used by Lightroom: 523.6 MB (8.6%)
Virtual memory used by Lightroom: 551.5 MB
Memory cache size: 1012.7 MB
Maximum thread count used by Camera Raw: 2
System DPI setting: 106 DPI
Desktop composition enabled: No
Displays: 1) 1600x900
 
If I am in Library module, select filter Metadata, select Keywords from dropdown (no other filter panels selected), and start to scroll down the list of keywords, I can select keywords by mouseclick, and see the matching photos as thumbs in the main window.
 
However as I scroll further down, I can no longer select keywords - the mouseclick no longer highlights or selects. This happens rather incosnsistently - by which I mean, the point in the eyword list where the select stops working is not always the same place in the keyword list.
 
If I click several times on the same non-selecting keyword, LR4.4 jumps to taking 50% (exactly) of processor time (shown in task manager) , and the memory usage climbs steadily until all free RAM is consumed.
 
This is a small (~8000 image) catalogue, with ~2500 keywords, entirely non-hierarchical.
 
The catalogue is set to optimise on backup, weekly.
 
I've tried deleting and recreating the preferences file btw to no avail

Lightroom :: Add Child Keyword To Image But Exclude Parent

Jan 13, 2014

I'have just imported all my photo's. They are mostly already keyworded but I have a slight problem. They range over the last 50 years so I have ended up with 50 "year" keywords, i.e. 1970, 1971, 1972 etc.
 
In order to tidy this up I though I'd create a "Year" parent keyword and have all those entries as children to it.
 
This would work bu how could I have a year keyword but not the parent name "Year" in the keyword list? Or at least not have it there when the image is exported.

Lightroom :: Keyword Tags Missing On 49,000 Image Files

Jun 29, 2013

Recently had my motherboard replaced under warranty and had to reinstall all programs. Had previously synched all my image files (and LR catalog files) to a separate hard drive using MemeoSync.
 
When I reinstalled and opened LR4.4 I found that the only folder showing was the synched drive (I:) whereas it should have been the C: drive. All synched images on the I: drive were correctly tagged but the original images on the C: drive had no keywords. I understand I can move all the files from the I: drive to the C: drive but there is another mystery I cannot solve.
 
I take all photos as RAW & jpeg. The files on the I: drive show the RAW files and the separate (but related) jpeg files. On the C: drive they are shown as <filename>.CR2+JPEG and I can't seem to separate them. I have tried ticking the box 'Treat JPEG files next to RAW files as separate files" without success.
 
So my question is, if I move all 49,000 files from one drive to the other, will the moved files retain the keyword tags AND the separated RAW/JPEG files? Also, must I delete all files from the C: drive before I move the replicated files from the I: drive? If this is successful I will then want to remove the I: folder in LR and just have the C: folder showing.

Lightroom :: Freezes On Keyword Changes / Will Not Refresh - Change Keywords With Newly Selected Image

Oct 4, 2013

I am running windows 7 64 bit. LR 4 worked fine. LR5 has the following (main) issues/bugs: Crashes when help - about system  is clicked.
 
Freezes on keyword changes and will not refresh or change keywords with newly selected image. Sometimes fixes with waiting a long time, sometimes only with restart of the program or optimization of database.Does not allow files to be rotated in full view, only in grid view.
 
With the upgrade to 5.2 I hoped the above would be corrected. They have not, and now, as an added 'feature' I also have:During the same session, a previously exported image is re-exported with a new export in place of one or more of the newer exports. This happens despite the filmstrip or grid view      being in sync on choices and when I am certain that previously exported image is not selected in the current export.
 
Further, the program does seem quite sluggish at times, though I have the program and database on seperate drives. I am thinking or will change over to working in previews to resolve that issue, meanwhile, the other issues are still in play.

Lightroom :: Keyword Tags - Why Can't Add Keyword Tags To Multiple Photos

Sep 2, 2013

I have used multiple versions of Lightroom (2, 3, 4, and now 5).  Why can't I add keyword tags to multiple photos?  I know that it can be done while importing, but I usually import a whole day's worth of pictures at one time and they don't require all the same keyword tags. The ones that are common I do add during import.  I used to be able to highlight the photos I wanted to add tags to, go to the metadata and find find the list of keywords applied to those photos.  Tags that were not common to all photos has an * beside them.  If I wished to have one of these tags for all the selected photos I just removed the *, otherwise I added the new tag to the list.

Lightroom :: Auto Adjusting Image Upon Clicking On The File?

Oct 14, 2012

When i import my RAW files into LR 4 from my Nikon D90 the images appear to have decent color saturation and contrast. Once i actually click on the individual files, it says loading and the image becomes very flat and dull looking (bad contrast, saturation). I turned off the option to auto adjust for camera specs but I am still having the issue. Does this have something to do with the color space? How can I get it to stop auto adjusting my files?

Lightroom :: When Exporting From LR4 To CS5 - Image Is Changed

Mar 8, 2012

When I export my images from LR4 to CS5 using the Edit In... choice, I first get the ...may require the...Camera Raw plug-in version 7.0... which we all know doesn't exist. Not that that isn't annoying enough (I know - I can turn off the warning) but the image then presented in PS5 is not of the same quality as the one I am exporting from LR4. It's almost as if the Lightroom adjustments are not carried through. I have tried all three color space options to no avail. Also, I am not being presented with the dialog asking if I want to edit a copy with Lightroom adjustments. These are Nikon RAW files (.nef) that I am working with. Other images that are not RAW files do display the Edit Photo with Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 dialog.

Lightroom :: How The Auto Tone Auto Adjusted The Exposure Slider

Yes, I'm probably the only person on the planet that wants this, but I liked how the Auto Tone auto adjusted the Exposure slider (ONLY!) and left all the other sliders at zero in the Lightroom 4 beta.

Lightroom :: 4.3 Error Exporting Image To Xrite ColorChecker Passport Software To Create Profile

Dec 21, 2012

Camera profiles created prior to the update to 4.3 still work, but when exporting an image to the software now, a command window pops up VERY briefly "OMG Error #15: Initializing libiomp5md.dll, but found libguide40.lib already initialized."  I found both files in c:windowssystem32, but when I looked into a backup copy of my drive from prior to the 4.3 update, neither file is present, leading me to believe they were installed by the update.  I tested the LR 4.1 version and the unchanged xrite software performs as it should with LR.

Lightroom :: 4.1 - Keyword Count Incorrect

Sep 2, 2012

I have Lightroom 4.1; 64 bit; Win7. All of a sudden my keyword list is not showing the correct number of photos to which a particular keyword is attached. It doesn't show any for some when there are a number photos with that particular keyword (although it also does not show "0"). For other keywords, it dispolays a number but it is incorrect (apparently always a lower number than actually applicable. I do not seem to be using a filter that might reduce the number.

Lightroom :: Export Keyword Tag Settings?

May 10, 2013

I've built up an extensive heirarchial keyword list in one of my catalogs.  I want to export that list to use in other catalogs.  I see how you export the keyword list and I get a text file, however, settings applied to each keyword doesn't seem to get exported (i.e. the settings for "Include on Export", "Export Containing Keywords" and "Export Synonyms").  I spent a lot of time building the list such that only the leaf-level keywords get exported to my image.  However, when I export my keyword list from one catalog and import it into a new catalog, those settings are lost.  Is there a way to export those settings as well?  I could create keyword sets, but that would be another time consuming endeavour.
