Photo Supreme

OTOH, if the reuse of existing profiles was a known (potential) issue, a brief note of caution in the release notes and in the forum would have been good.

It has been a known issue for days now and the cautionary note still isn't posted in the release notes. When I brought the issue to the ...

"6. Only respond to topics when you have something to contribute to the subject of that topic" - one of the rules of this forum

You've violated that rule many times. Hert has violated that rule many times. I've violated that rule many times. A LOT of people have violated that rule many times. All ...

So, Michael, joking is not allowed here any more. I've been an IDimager customer for eight years and, frankly, expect treatment of my posts at least the same as treatment of Hert's posts. He also occasionally writes off-topic posts that understandably are not helpful to anyone. Indeed, I expect a ...

Play the lottery and pick 193.

Unless I'm missing something, the keywords are automatically added to the Miscellaneous category because you probably specified "Merge keywords with existing Catalog labels" as a Read setting, not because you enabled Auto synch (which is a Write setting).
You might be correct, Vlad. I really don't ...

On the other hand, Frank, it just now occurred to me that if I didn't use Auto synch, I would have no use for the Miscellaneous category and it would be completely empty all of the time.

Why anyone would want to use 'Miscellaneous' is completely beyond me.
I participate in a photography forum and part of that participation involves downloading other photographers' images to my computer. I then import them into my catalog for temporary examination. (That's because Supreme is at the ...

Just the opposite.

@Mike
You can be really quite offensive, even without trying and this is not an isolated occasion.
Just imagine how offensive I could be if I really tried, Stephen. My guess is that you probably have a really good idea of how much time I'm going to spend in the future helping you out of your ...

It was caused when the system spontaneously re-booted itself while syncing 6,000 images. Effectively a power cut.
I disagree with the essence of your characterization. The true time-consuming and frustrating nature of your problems would not have occurred if you had implemented an effective backup ...

Unfortunately the combination of my editor and PSu (no need for details here) results in duplicate labels when importing edited images and can come from other sources outside your control.
That's actually not true, Stephen. Other sources are most definitely within your control if for no other ...

For me, this suggestion adds an unnecessary level of complexity. Any time you want to attend to images that are assigned catalog labels in the Miscellaneous hierarchy, you can easily conduct a search of that hierarchy with no need for another color to be added to the Assign panel.

I think the decision about whether to assign both Latin America and South America to an image depends on your needs. As an example, I chose not to use both, just as I chose not to assign both Mediterranean and Europe; instead I assign only Europe to pertinent places. That's because I am the only ...

I wouldn't combine Auto Synch with synching all images because of the number of images that would be seemingly nearly constantly updating.

If you change the name of the portfolio or collection from i.e. pending Paris to 2016-07-07 Paris...The images do not appear to be out of sync because there is no red dot.
I have always guessed that that is the sort of thing explaining the potential usefulness of the Preferences Write setting that ...
