  • My JPEGS are no longer being copied over to Finder.  Only a random fraction are copied.  It use to work perfect.  Is there a bug in the updated versions of iPhoto?

    My JPEGS are no longer being copied over to Finder.  Only a random fraction are copied.  It use to work perfect.  I can move them 4 or 5 at a time, but it is very time consuming.    Is there a bug in the updated versions of iPhoto?

    OK - here is what I've done in the past.  As I want to be able to save my photos on  a DVD that can be read by both a PC and a Mac, I am burning them in Finder.  I start by downloading into IPhoto.  I'll flag and edit the ones I want to print or post to the web.  After that I want to take all the keepers and move them from IPhoto to various files I create in the document  section of Finder.  I've done it both ways in the past, copy and paste or just drag over, all the files would transfer over.  Now there may be dozens of pictures that do not move over - very random, in one case there were only 6 photos and the 3 vertical ones did not copy over.
    I'm wondering if this is a software issue or if there is just too much data being moved around.  FYI there are 2 Nikon cameras I use and the files from both do this.
    Thanks

  • The DVD function of 2007 MacBook Pro (10.7.5) no longer works. Apple does repair, but referred to buy an external DVD player.  Purchased two, including the Apple, neither work on my model. Trying to burn DVD of 8MM video.  Any suggestions?

    I am trying to turn my Sony 8mm Handicam video into DVD through my MACBOOK PRO.  Unfortunately my DVD function no longer works.  Apple won't repair, no longer carries the parts.  Referred to Apple repair shop.  Gentleman there said it cost the same to purchase an external DVD player as repair the MACBOOK.  So far, I have purchased two, including Apple's.  Neither works with my MACBOOK.  Any ideas or suggestions?

    Hi rgneil:
    Yeah, keeping an older machine running has it's challenges.
    Have you tried one of the DVD burners from Other World Computing?  Their sales support can probably guide you to one that should work.  The OWC burner that I use with my 2009 17-inch MacBook Pro has FireWire and USB2 connectors.
    Are you using iMovie/iDVD or Final Cut Pro/DVD Studio Pro?  And, do you have Roxio Toast?
    If all else fails, you could try a stand alone DVD-Recorder.  You'd want to pick a model that supports external video input.  I have a LiteON DVD-Recorder that I patch VHS, Regular8 and Hi8 decks to now and again just to get stuff off tape to DVD-R.
    Report back on what works (or continues to not work) for you.
    Burn on!

  • The function of the F keys at the top of my keyboard no longer work as they used to. How do I restore their old function?

    The function of the F keys at the top of my keyboard no longer work as they used to. The actions they do no longer correspond to the symbols that are printed on them. For example, the volume buttons no longer control volume and now change the display to full-screen instead, and the brightness buttons don't do anything at all.
    This started today and I'm finding it very irritating. I checked in System Preferences and didn't find any obvious way to turn most of them back to what they used to do.
    Help?

    In System Preferences > Keyboard uncheck Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys.

  • Where do I send a long list of problems I have with non-functionality with the Lion OSX and new Safari for Lion.

    In the past two weeks I have been documenting my Lion problems.
    First, Arrows gone from finder windows; makes it difficult in comparing long lists of files in folder, or compare documents when reviewing line by line. This is obviously a change by people who do not compare long lists in windows comparing files between versions of projects ... the click to next screen is NOT equal to arrows.
    Second, Finder Redreaw - doesn't. Move files to a fold, if there are a lot of files, they image of the files being moved remains in finder (see attached screen capture) until Finder is restarted and if COPY function is running. last files in Copy queue are not copied.
    Screen capture 5 minutes after moving files to a folder - the selected file images are still in Finder after the move was completed.
    Third, it is SLOW, particularly going to an "Attach file" in email, drawing the content of a folder to select an attachment is long enough for me to go to the kitchen, get a drink and come back. Just like the old days of OS7.
    Fourth, shifting/recentering screen away from where I am working. Several programs, browsers, Adobe Photoshop/inDesign, and dear old Pages re center my screen - not to the center, but if I choose 30 of 70 images in a folder, it will shift … somewhere else in the folder instead of where I just clicked. If I am working on a document in inDesign or PhotoShop it will do the same - the cursor and screen drift elsewhere to find something it has been amused by. Sometimes it is a word, or a file, but often it is off the pastboard and on the etherial pasteboard on which the pages sit. Or if I'm zoomed in on an image, it moves to somewhere else.
    I use a mouse and keyboard, both Apple wireless. I do not use a trackpad, but have a tablet/stylus I am afraid to put into the mix until this crap is stopped.
    Fifth, SAVE AS… is gone. You must unlock, duplicate and edit the duplicate … and must rename it in Finder, or use EXPORT to save as the same format under a new name. SAVE AS… worked. Not broke, why fix it?
    Personal Comment: The problems seem to be the triumph of coked up software engineers ooohing and aaahing over "Wouldn't it be cool if..."   Cool, if they were Microsoft, and required everyone change how they have worked on Macs for the past (almost) three decades. Triumph of brainstorming over functionality.
    Sixth, I can't use Cocoa Booklet, but that really started in OSX 10.6 "Snow Leopard". Most of my X11/Cocoa programs stopped worked about that time. Apple is no longer supporting "open source"?
    But Wait! There's More...
    Seventh, Tonight, trying to download a 1.7 gig archive onto a disk where 280 Gigs were supposedly free, it would not download because, according to the wonderful new Safari and the wonderful new Lion, there is not enough disk space to download a 1.7 gig file in a mere 280 Gigs of free space.
    I might be able to move Snow Leopard onto the iMac, but my deciding factor was that Apple, in its wisdom, decided to make iBook Author unable to run under Snow Leopard. So moving to Snow Leopard means I have lost the ONLY benefit I get from the new computer and the new system.
    This really stinks.

  • In InCopy, how can I paste from one InDesign table to another without also copying formatting?

    I'm attempting to paste information from one indesign document to another, but the styles are different. Pasting without formatting not working in a table. When I paste over, it retains the container style from the original table.
    I have "Text Only" selected from my Clipboard Handling preferences, so I'm not sure what else to do. I know I can hit escape to switch to the text selection instead of a container, but this only selects the text from one cell. I'd like to copy over the entire table, instead of copying cell by cell.
    How can I paste a table into another, without copying the formatting?

    Copy/Paste whole cells will always retain formatting.
    What you have to do is: Copy/Paste Without Formatting the text contents of the individual cell.
    You have to do that individually for each cell, if you want to copy over text of a whole table.
    A better approach would be to:
    1. Copy the whole table to Excel (or a different spread sheet application)
    2. Copy again from that
    3. Select one single cell and paste
    In that case "Text Only" should be selected from the Clipboard Handling Preferences.

    When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive.  It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas?  I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.

  • Windows 8.1 on Envy 17 upgraded to pro.. refresh / reset no longer works

    hi peeps
    i was testing out the refresh and reset options when i first got the laptop they worked like normal.. then i upgraded to pro via control panel/add features to windows
    the refresh and reset options no longer work.. how can i edit those functions to point to recovery partition

    Hi @icp_wolverine 
    I understand that after you upgraded to a  Windows Pro version and you are no longer able to do a system refresh or Microsoft restore.
    If you did not overwrite the recovery partition when you did the upgrade you should be able to do a system recovery using the recovery manager.
    Performing an HP system recovery (Windows 8)
    If you did overwrite the recovery manager and you created recovery CDs then you can use them to recover your system.
    If you are unable to do any of the above suggestions, please contact HP support and inquire about obtaining a recovery kit for your notebook.

  • TS1277 after installing itunes, my computer won't recognize my cdrom/burner any longer.  Worked  ok before and I have uninstalled itunes and it works again and when I reinstall itunes it won't work again.  I have also went into registry files and deleted

    After installing itunes, my desktop computer doesn't recognize my internal cd rom/burner.  I removed itunes and it works ok and when I reinstall itunes it won't work again.  I went into the windows registry files and deleted the lower filter which is one correction for this and it worked ok until the next itunes upgrade and now it won't work again.  If anyone knows what to do please let me know.  My device manager shows a code "10"

    That suggests an AFS.sys issue. But we'd better doublecheck.
    Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
    In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". (If you're running iTunes 11.0.x you'll need to bring up your menu bar first to see the Help menu.) Uncheck the boxes other than DVD/CD tests, as per the following screenshot:

  • I cannot paste text into my Hotmail account that I've copied elsewhere, using the mouse. This is only happening on Firefox.

    I added the suggested extention, AllowClipboard Helper, but perhaps it wasn't meant for that. I'd hate to give up Firefox, but it's making me nuts.

    Allow me to be slightly embarrassed - you must be exactly right. This morning I went back and tried again, and it worked perfectly!
    Still makes me wonder why it didn't work yesterday - I restarted Adobe but didn't restart the computer like I did over night.
    My system:
    Windows 7 Pro (64-bit)
    Intel i7 X980 3.33GHz
    750 GB system drive
    2TB Media drive
    12 GB Memory
    GeForce GTX 470
    Running Adobe Production Premium CS4
    AE version 9.0.3.8
    Font used: Adobe Caslon Pro
    Copied from character map with font: Adobe Caslon Pro
    Everything in English (US)
    I had a project in AE that was 80 seconds long, no external video footage but all built in AE at 1280 X 720, 30 fps
    I'm guessing some background process maybe messed the clipboard up? Anyway, it works now and I guess it was a one-time occurence. If I can ever recreate this repeatedly - I'll be back here!
    thanks!

    Hi
    I've a big problem with adobe acrobat reader XI pro and I hope you can help me.
    The problem is; when I past copied text from some pdf books (not all of them) it past symbols only! wherever I past it! and even if I coped that text from another pdf reader (adobe pdf reader, internet browsers, ...etc.).
    This problem started to happen since yesterday when I installed adobe acrobat reader XI pro to try it before I buy it, and before that when I was using the free adobe pdf reader I was totally able to copy any text from any pdf and past it anywhere with nothing wrong.
    What can I do?
    thank you a lot.

    There is no product called Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro. There is
    - Adobe Acrobat Pro ($$)
    - Adobe Reader (free)
    Which do you have? And are you a programmer?

  • I can no longer log into my Remote Work site with Firefox, and I do not know why (I won a Mac)--can anyone tell me what might be wrong?

    For 1 1/2 years I had been able to log in to my work Remote Access site using Firefox, but I no longer can--it just sits there and does nothing. I have tried deleting the Firefox browser in case of corruption and reloaded from the Mozilla website, but that does not help. I prefer not to give the URL of my company website, but it is possible someone can help me. Might the problem be java, or something else?

    You'll have to call and explain your situation to Adobe Customer Service for your region.
