Can I turn a tool recorded artwork into a video?

I want to show a video turning into a drawing. Can I use the tool recording feature to change my photo into a drawing and than export that to video?

If I read this correctly, you want to make a screen cast of yourself working on an image in Photoshop, right?
You would need to use screen capture software like Adobe Captivate, Tech Smith's Camtasia or possibly Jing.

How can I turn my French apple account into Australian one to be able to buy a Iphoto book I've made?

hi
How can I turn my french apple account into an Australian one , to be able to buy a Iphoto book I 've created ?

And you need to set the "Print Products Store" in the iPhoto Preferences "Advanced" to the country you are in. The credit card you will be using with your AppleID needs to be valid in the country your AppleID is registered to. Will you be staying permanently in Australia? Maybe it wuld be simpler to create a second AppleID just for the time of your stay there.

How can I turn my Mac using iTunes into an alarm clock?

Here's my question: How can I turn my Mac, using iTunes, into an alarm clock?
I want to be able to put my Mac to sleep but have it set up so that when it wakes up at the predetermined time iTunes will open and start playing the music I've selected....
A "musical alarm clock"...
A friend suggested using the Energy Saver option in Sys. Preferences to wake the computer at the right time. He said that then I could use iCal to start iTunes. I would then have to use an Apple Script to get iTunes to play the song I want.
But is there a SIMPLER way to do this? Are there any programs out there that do this already??
Thanks for any help....

I recently got a copy of AlarmClock Pro from MacWorld UK. It is shareware, I think it is (USD?)19. I haven't had a chance to try it out much, but it does look quite good. I have an older version. The latest version looks even better.
I'm sure there's plenty of freeware apps out there. You might also want to try looking here for an applescript here Doug's AppleScripts for iTunes

How can I get my (vinyl) record music into iTunes Match?

I have a rather large collection of music on CDs, Tapes, and records.
Now that iTunes Match exists I would like to include all of my music into my iTunes library.
There is no easy way (that I know of) to load anything except CDs into iTunes. So for the rest of the library one must either buy all the music again or buy equipment to play the music one time and convert it to a newer format.
My CD collection is mostly loaded and since 99.999% (virtually all) of that music is already in iTunes Match it is not uploaded to iTunes again, but it quickly becomes available to play on all my iTunes Authorized Devices.
With the exception of that 1 in ten thousand songs that I may have that iTunes does not have in the Match library there is no reason to import the music at all - other than to prove I have the actual CD's. (In any case I suppose I could have borrowed them for that anyway.)
However for CDs at least they can be imported - but for tapes and records I know of no direct way.
With something state-of-the-art like iTunes Match and my PC(s), iPhone(s) and iPad, why use stone-age-like means to prove ownership of outside-of-iTunes music?
Why not provide some other information to identify albums owned and have them available in iTunes Match without the 99.999% useless step of loading them?
In fact for most tape music it is no longer playable (to convert) as the rollers in the tape devices deteriorate and they no longer play.
Vinyl records play just fine, just not easily into a PC without purchase of expensive equipment that would be used only for the one-time load (which is really just for proof-of-ownership).
What a ridiculous waste of time, energy and funds for that 1 in 10,000 songs that may not yet exist in the iTunes Match library. Okay, as the music gets older it may even be 2 in 10,000 - but I doubt it.
I remember that each album (and 45 rpm single) has identifying information scratched into it (around the inside of the innermost track) - can that (or something else) suffice as proof of ownership to get the music into iTunes Match?
Please respond with ideas to quickly and easily get already-owned vinyl record music into an iTunes Match library.
I personally do not care if 1 (or 2) out of 10,000 of my songs gets lost because it is not in the iTunes Match library - couldn't be that good in that case anyway.
Thanks!!

I too have not figured out how to convert my vinyl collection to iTunes match. Here is what I have tried:
I record my vinyl records onto CD using a Sony RCD-W500C which makes a very high quality recording. I make sure the song lengths are the same as those from the same album at the iTunes store.
Then I import the CD into my iTunes music library. I have to enter the names of the tracks manually because Gracenote cannot identify the names of the songs. I do this while the music is in my iTunes music library and the CD has been ejected from my PC.
Then I try to get the iTunes Match, but it never works. I do, however, get the artwork from iTunes. iTunes then uploads my songs into the iCloud. When I download them back onto my PC and iPhone 4s, I get the identicle recording that I imported onto iTunes. I know this because I can hear the static and crackling of the vinyl. I don't necessarily mind that noise, but I figured if I paid for the iTunes Match I should get the AAC 256 bps music. After all it doesn't cost iTunes anything to give it to me. And there's no way I'm going to purchase all my vinyl records again. I have about 500 albums.
I do buy all my new music from iTunes because I think it is the best system available. I just think it could be so much better if they would let me download the highest quality recording of the music I own from them.
I have also tried the Sony Sound Forge Audio Studio which records my vinyl records into a music file on my PC. But that doesn't get the match either.
THERE HAS TO BE SOMEBODY OUT THERE THAT CAN TELL US WHAT ITUNES MATCH LOOKS AT IN OUR MUSIC UPLOADS THAT DETERMINES WHETHER THEY GIVE US THE MATCH!!!!!!
When you download a CD, there is some information embedded in the CD that iTunes matches. I don't believe there is any information embeded in the vinyl albums, but when I burn them onto a CD-maybe I could add the info onto the CD before trying to match it if I just knew what they looked for.
I would appreciate any help anyone can give me on this.

How can we configure or control records go into single idoc thru BODS?

Hi,
Our case is -
IDOC format has three segment. Each segments has child nodes -
1. CONTROL SEGMENT - This is required only once per idoc.
child1
child2
2. SEGMENT1 - sinlge source record to be broken into two segments.
child1
child2
3. SEGMENT2 - sinlge source record to be broken into two segments.
child1
child2
we have a single source (lest say having 100 records).
In the current design which does generates IDOCS but as many as the no of records in source. Currently we use a row generation transform as dummy (with row count as 1) to pass to the IDOC parent nodes's from clause to escape the error - invalid input to the parent nodes.
Child nodes are either mapped to the source table or are null.
Question - How can we configure this in a way that we control how many records go into single idoc. Ex - lets say 50 per idoc so only 2 idoc should be created if 100 records are there.

HI,
this sounds to me like Data Services. If so I would suggest to post this into the Data Service forum.

Turn mesh tool curves (perfect) into path curves?

um heading says it all..
I created some lovely curves using 'envelope distort - mesh tool' & want to make it a path, cause i can't possible pen tool that perfection!
make me happy!

lyonbird,
As a more straightforward solution, you might consider using a Blend with specified steps between two paths (with corresponding Anchor Points), and expand it to get individual paths.

How can I make a slideshow in iPhoto into a video on an iPad 3?

Been trying to find a way to make a slideshow in iPhoto into a video. Is there a way to do this?

You can avoid the Ken Burns effect, but it would be a lot of work:
See: http://help.apple.com/imovie/ipad/2.0/index.html#knac3eec39c6
If you don’t want the Ken Burns effect applied to a photo, set the image position and zoom level to be the same for the start and end points.
Adjust the movement of photos with the Ken Burns effect
iMovie applies the Ken Burns effect to the photos you add to your project. With this effect, the camera appears to sweep across and zoom in on the photo. If there are people in the photo, iMovie uses face detection to keep faces within the viewing area.
You can adjust the Ken Burns effect so that the motion starts and ends on the parts of the image you specify.
In the timeline, tap the photo you want to adjust.The Ken Burns effect controls appear in the lower-right corner of the image in the viewer.
To set the way the photo is framed at the beginning, tap the Start button .
Pinch to zoom in or out, then drag the image in the viewer to frame it the way you want.
To set the way the photo is framed at the end, tap the End button .
Pinch to zoom in or out, then drag the image in the viewer to frame it the way you want.
To close the controls, tap the Ken Burns Effect button , or tap outside of the clip.
If you don’t want the Ken Burns effect applied to a photo, set the image position and zoom level to be the same for the start and end points.

Need to turn to simultaneously recorded tracks into ste

I recently recorded a series of two track recordings and saved them as single tracks. How can I combine them into a single stereo wav file? If I could put them back into the recorder (Fostex MR-8) I could do it there but the recorder only takes analog inputs and my Audigy 2 ZS platinum Pro appears to only output digital. I need a stereo wave file to feed either a digital oscillator or spectrum analyzer. I cannot find any info in the FAQs about this.

For the subject: you need a vaw editor which is capable to insert those wavs to L / R separately or a multitracker. Was there cubasis or Li've bundled with your card. If not, you can try if n-track Studio can do the job (shareware, allows saving).
If you need only file joining, it can be done easy with tools like this MediaJoin utility.

Can I turn my G4 and G5 into a TV?

Once upon a time, I think Gilligan's Island was in first runs, I owned an Apple Performa 638 CD. Came with 8mgs Ram. I splurged and upgraded to 12.
What was really cool about this pre-powermac was that had (or has, I still own it and let the kids mess around with old applications on it) a coaxial input in back. I could and did run a cable from my house cable (Comcast) right into Mr. PErforma and could watch TV in the corner of my monitor. Or expand to full screen.
Very cool. Meant I didn't have to have a TV in my office with my computer. Don't know why that didn't catch on. Goodness, I can plug everything else into my mac now. Why not a cable for TV watching>
Anyway, what is an easy and cheap device I can buy to watch some TV on my Imac G4? Maybe something that plugs into as usb port, then plugs a cable into the wall jack and has some kind of tuner?
Thanks~! JON

Hello DadOfSixJon,
Look here, read the detail with an eye towards what you want to do (type of TV reception you have and what you want to do with it):
http://www.elgato.com/elgato/na/mainmenu/home.en.html
I have two systems in the family, personally taking it off the old antenna in the attic (close-in Chicago area), and watch HD broadcast TV on 12 stations. And easily and flawlessly record programing with one click from the TitanTV online subscription that comes with the product. Sort of like a HD TIVO but w/out any subscription cost.
There are a few other choices out there, but IMO, none of them compare.
Good Luck and have fun!
Respectfully,
Bill Gallagher

Can I turn a page of photos into a single graphic?

I've got a page of photos, drop shadows etc., a bit slow to load. I know I can turn all the photos (with their related text and drop shadows) into a single graphic. But what is the maximum size (k's) I need the graphic to be so that it will still load faster than all the separate elements?
B.

Preview's PNG's are kinda large. Photoshop can make smaller PNG's but since PNG is not lossy, you can only affect the file size to a certain degree. I came across this site
http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/000810.html
Which mentions a utility called PNGOUT. (at the bottom of this page)
http://advsys.net/ken/utils.htm
You may be able to further shrink your PNG's with that.
UPDATE: Just found this more graphic solution.

Can I turn of "Processing Album Artwork"

I don't have the slightest interest in Album Artwork. All I want out of I-tunes is to play a library or playlist. No artwork, no Ipod, no I-tunes store, etc. All I need is the playback function on my PC.
I just upgraded to the newest version out of curiosity.
I previously used version 4.9 and could load 16,000 songs into a library in 3 or 4 minutes.
This version insists on "processing album artwork", which is useless in my case.
I used the search function on this forum and found a supposed solution. I deleted the Album Art folder and highlighted everything in my library, right clicked, "got info", and chose to delete artwork.
I then reloaded the library and the application insists on processing album artwork again. It has so far taken 15 minutes and the library is less than half loaded.
I reload my entire library perhaps once a month.
Can this "feature" be defeated entirely? If not, I am going back to version 4.9, which works fine on Vista and does not go through this routine.

That choice is already unchecked.
I handle my library as I do because it is constantly changing. It would be very time consuming to manually enter new MP3 files as I rip them--or to delete old mp3 as I get rid of them. The quickest way for me to do this (4 minutes once a month) is to replace the entire library with my entire MP3 collection as it stands on that day, rather than add songs bit by bit during the month. I don't let I-Tunes control my library if I can help it. I need it for one purpose: playback on a PC.
I use it rather than other similar apps because I like the full screen interface.
What took 4 minutes with earlier versions now takes over a half hour.
The new version has no functionality I need that is not in version 4.9. The only reason I am even considering the current version is that 4.9 allegedly has security issues. I don't know yet how serious those are supposed to be, but I have never had any problems.

How can I import bookmark HTML records directly into pre-defined (but empty) Folders?

Firefox is my default browser. I am in the process of replacing an old computer with a new one. I've converted into HTML files the Bookmark content of all of the Folders appearing within the Bookmarks section of Firefox on my old computer. I then uploaded this into the cloud, and downloaded it to my new computer. I've loaded Firefox afresh on the new computer. Now . . .
Ideally, I would like to be able to import these saved/HTML bookmarks (now on my new computer) directly into the new Firefox, keeping the Folder structure maintained in saving them from the old computer; less ideally, but still acceptable, would be to simply re-create as empty Folders each Folder from the old computer's Firefox setup and then do a 'Select All' copy/paste from each of these Folders as saved in my downloaded HTML bookmarks into these initially empty Folders created in the new computer's Firefox Bookmarks section. Is either of these currently possible? In short, this is a quite distinct scenario from importing bookmarks from other browsers on the same computer.
I have tried, but it seems that neither of these functions is currently viable. As common as replacing one computer with another is, I find this a pretty significant oversight which will require a very time consuming conversion process if such functions are not currently available; i.e., I'll have to open each saved HTML Folder and manually activate each individual html bookmark, go to that website, and individually re-bookmark each of these one by one within the Bookmarks section of Firefox on my new computer as if I were bookmarking this site for the very first time. With hundreds and hundreds of bookmarks segregated into about 30 Folders, I think you can see what a productivity drain this will be.
While there appear to be some quite interesting and potentially useful FireFox Addons - e.g., Categorize - none of these seems to address/resolve this problem. Can you advise? Thank you.

To start out with, Firefox hasn't used the HTML format for storing bookmarks for a few years now; you can still import and export bookmarks in HTML format, as you can with just about any other browser out there as an interchange format. Firefox 3.0+ versions use an SQLite database for storing bookmarks and browsing history in the place.sqlite file. Firefox 3.0+ versions do automatic backups of your bookmarks in the JSON format; that file includes "Tags" data but not the web site Favicon data. Restoring a backup from an old PC to the new PC is how Mozilla handles replacing an old computer - or you can "backup" the entire old Profile and transfer that data to the new PC manually. A user could also use Firefox Sync to "sync" their personal data onto the new PC. IMO, you're over-thinking this using dated information (talking about HTML files) without knowing about what options you currently have with Firefox and Mozilla.
Is that a genuine Netscape-1 bookmarks.html file? ''Look at the first line of code in that HTML file to see.'' <br />
Or is it a standard HTML file?
If you have a genuine bookmarks.html file, you can '''Import''' that file thru Organize Bookmarks > Import and Backup > Import HTML... > From an HTML file.
Doing it that way you will be appending the bookmarks & folders that are in the '''Bookmarks Menu''' folder right now. The ordering of the folders and bookmarks in the "imported" file is identical, the "imported" data is added below the existing data. That said, the '''''Bookmarks Toolbar''''' folder and the '''''Unsorted Bookmarks''''' folder from the "imported" data will be in the Bookmarks Menu folder at the bottom; you'll have to move the bookmarks that are in that folder to their respective folders, above and below the Bookmarks Menu folder.

How can I turn a iPhoto slide show into a DVD to share with friends?

First time I have used this forum. Also, am new to Mac.
I went to a lot of trouble creating an iPhoto slideshow thinking I could make a DVD to mail to friends. I could do this easily on a PC with Adobe Photoshop.
Thanks in advance.

Set the aspect ratio of the iPhoto slideshow to 4:3 for iDVD. Export the slideshow to your Movies folder via the Export button at the bottom.
Select Medium or Large as the size.
Open iDVD, selecdt a theme and drag the QT movie file of the slideshow into the iDVD menu's window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Follow this workflow to help ensure the best quality video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image and launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
