Dis-associated keywords?

[Ian]

My keywording is working quite well in Bridge 2.1.1.   However one problem I note is that many of my jpg files which had their keywords applied,  probably with the original bridge, and which show their keywords in the bridge Content folder do not show up as a tick in the Keywords tab with the same key word name.   Only when I select some or all the images and refresh them does the tick appear in the Keywords tab.

The image keywords are real as I can search for the keyword and the images appear in the Content tab.

I had already deleted and rebuilt all of the caches before I noticed this problem.   Now I have no confidence that images showing attached keywords have active keywords.

Anyone seen this situation and have a fix?

regards,

Ian

Ian,
Do the keywords come up in the Filter panel?
How many images in the folder?

Peter,

To answer your questions

jpg folder = 2860 images

JPG images without keywords showing in the keyword panel (even if the image is refreshed),  do show as correct keywords  in the filter area and are correctly brought when the filter is used.

Looking at file info I see the keywords listed.    In bridge I'm using hierarchical keywords, e.g. Places/New York but may not have been using  hierarchical keywords when the keywords were originally applied.   I also might have applied the keywords outside of bridge.

Ian,
The problem has to do with having to manuy images in a folder for BRidge to handle well.
I try to keep it to no more than 300.

Peter,

I have just started to use Ingester so I will use it to import the jpgs into to new smaller folders

thanks,
