Each time I create a new album in IPhoto, photos from another album or from photo stream are automatically dumped into the new album.. how do I create a blank album and then import photos from a flash drive into the new album?

just import the iPhoto
Surely you meant "just import the photo"? The Spell checker is dangerously creative !

How do I archive emails in mail and then delete them from my inbox?
I need to archive a bunch of emails for a project, and I know that if I put them in a mailbox and then delete them from my inbox, they're gone. So, what's the most efficient way to save 100s of emails that will eventually need to be filed within a project file?
// Sample code
List resList = new Vector();
MyObject obj = null;
while(rs.next()) {
obj.setXXX(rs.getXXX(i)); // Get from the resultset and set to the object
resList.add(obj);
// At the end of the loop, you have a Vector of objects holding data.What do you mean by returning Strings separately? -
How do I begin with a template and then import a Word document?
I know I can open a word document in pages (I do this all the time). But I have a specific template and I want the word document I open to take up the designed elements of the template. How do I do that?
George
You can import the styles from another document:
+Menu > Format > Import Styles…+
but it will come down to what you need to retain from what.
You can not import layout or elements, so you will have to work out which holds most of what you want and import the styles from one and apply that or copy and paste into the document that contains most of the work.
Don't forget you can use the thumbnails to copy across whole pages/sections.
This is where Pages extremely weak and poorly thought through layout methods fall down. You will not be able to apply the master pages and master page layouts, to existing work, that you can in other DTP software.

I renamed the Library Folder in Finder, and then imported photos
Several months ago after first purchasing an iMac, I imported some photos. Since these photos were all from a Mexico trip, I went into Finder and renamed the iPhoto Library folder to "Mexico Photos". What I didn't know then, but certainly do now, is that renaming a folder in Finder is a cardinal sin in iPhoto. Now I have a problem, because yesterday I started importing and organizing hundreds of photos. After creating 97 events with over 1500 photos, I realized that all the newly imported photos are in the "Mexico Photo" file. Since I now have photos from several different events, I wanted to change the folder name to something other than "Mexico Photos". So once again I renamed the file back to the original "iPhoto Library" but after doing that, I couldn't open any of the photos. The 97 events were there, but the photos were all blank. When I clicked on a photo, an explanation mark appeared. After changing the name in Finder back to "Mexico Photos", all my photos and events are visible and I can open all the photos. So my question is how can I change the folder name to something other than "Mexico Photos" without losing all my photos again?

Welcome to the Apple user discussion forums
If you quit iPhoto,rename the iPhoto library package and launch iPhoto while depressing the option (alt) key you can select the library - the newly named iPhoto library should be selectable
The name of the library does not affect operation as long as you have not modified the contents of it

How to delete recovery in volume D and transfer it to bootable USB flash drive.
I am trying to create a recovery for windows 7 pro on a USB flash drive. i tried looking for HP USB recovery utility on HP website but they say that i will require a USB 2.0 port whereas ELitebook only has 3.0 ports! Also cant find the utility anywhere for elitebook. The builtin Windows recovery manager only allows recovery creation on a Disc but ELitebook doesnt have a CD drive either and I prefer recovery creation on a flash. Also my laptop packaging states that my purchase comes with windows 8 pro license and media. however i didnt receive any DVD media for that matter. Could Windows 8 setup files be residing within the recovery volume D ?\ any help in this matter will be appreciated.. regards, Sami Bangash
USB 3.0 ports are USB 2.x (and 1.x) backward compatible. Each USB version has different power specs, so while a USB 2.0 device will work fine in a USB 3.0 port, the opposite is not true. The Windows "media" is typically a compressed file stored in a Recovery partition on the hard drive. HP Backup Manager can be used to create a DVD (or set of CDs, whichever it uses) from the compressed file -- and that media can then be used to restore the PC.

I'm trying to remove my restrictions, and i reset it to factory default, but everytime i back it up the restrictions are still on. I don't want to have to register as a new ipod and loose everything i've bought and added.
- Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored.
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- If you are up to it see:

ICal creates blank calendars and then quits
I was publishing my calendars and synching Ical to my .Mac account. Now, Ical keep creating new blank calendars and then quitting! Help!
Try this:
Locate the folder ~/Library/Application Support/iCal and drag it to your desktop
In the folder ~/Library/Prefeences/ delete any files (2-4) that start com.apple.iCal and end .plist
(~ represents your home directory)
Start iCal. Let me know what happens. I expect it will start with two blank calendars, no syncing and no publishing, but there are other possibilities. If we get that far we can then try restoring your original calendars.

I tried to export photos from iMac to iPad using a USB flash drive. The photos are on the drive but when I plug it into the iPad, the iPad says the device requires too much power. Any ideas of what type of USB flash drive I should use?
You can transfer photos outside of iTunes. I do it all the time. THat said, i have a 50/50 success rate with them. I'd avoid sandisk and kingston, their bundled software triggers the 'too much power' warning.
I've had mixed luck with lexar, some work, some don't.
I did have good luck with an older 4 gig geek squad one.
Look for drives without software on them, without bright LED lights and I haven't gotten any larger than 4 gig to work, but that may just be me.
For a less troublesome way? h onestly, I use a SD card that I've formatted with the DCIM folder. I've never had one of them trigger the 'too much power' warning. Just make sure they're not SDXC. those don't work. -
I want to take files from my PC (using a Seagate external hard drive) then plug this Seagate External hard drive into my Mac Book Pro and move the files from the Seagate External Hard drive onto my Time Capsule. I do not want to put these files on my Mac. How do I do this? Where do I put these files on my Time Capsule? Will it affect the functioning of my Time Capsule?
Mixing files with data is not always great idea.
See info here.
Q3 http://pondini.org/TM/Time_Capsule.html
Why not just connect the PC directly to the TC by ethernet and copy the files over?
It is hugely faster and much less mucking around.
In windows load the airport utility for windows.. if you have not already as this will help you access the drive.
There is more info here.

i plugged my iphone 4S into my computer for the first time and then my photos were replaced with the ones from my old iphone, how do i get them back?
Try restoring from the backup created at the beginning of the sync process:
Without connecting your phone, open iTunes, go to Preferences, on the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically"
Connect your phone, right-click on the name of your phone when it appears on the left sidebar in iTunes
Select Restore from backup, choosing your most recent backup to restore from
Disconnect your phone and confirm that your photos are back
Go back to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and re-enable automatic syncing. -

Exporting video from one machine and then importing into another not working...
Here is my situation:
I wanted to import some videoes into iMovie on my Mac (OSX Lion) that my wife shot on her iPhone 4S (ios 5.x). I first synched her photos and video with iTunes/iPhoto on her machine (OSX Snow Leopard), then exported them from iPhoto onto a thumb drive. Then I imported them into iPhoto on my machine.
The pics are fine. But the videos are not playing. iPhoto sees they are videos, but each one is like a still: there is no duration to the video when you hit the play arrow. They also will not play by clicking on them directly in a Finder window from the thumb drive. The are showing up (for example) as IMG_0133.mov, with the proper "Quicktime movie" in the "Kind" column, but each one is 1 to 1.5 MB or less, so something is up.
Anyone know what has happened? Perhaps they don't export correctly?Yes, I do, and I will do that when I re-do the process tonight.
Do I need to (or is it advisable) to export the .mov files separately?
I admit I was in a hurry and never having done this before, I did not look closely at the options. -
I cannot download my pics from my flash drives into Photoshop elements 11.
I cannot dowmload my pics from my flash drives into Photoshop elements 11. Each time I try it gets to about 15% and then Photoshop crashes. It is not the flash drives as other programmes on my computer open them without a problem. Please help
Hi Neale,
That was my first thought as well, I do know that Photoshop sometimes gets a surge of shite to the brain and refuses to download the movie formats.
However after your mail I went again, through every individual pic/, about 1500 of them and yea, you were right there was one bloody movie file.
Thanks so much really appreciate your help.

I made a keynote then saved it to a flash drive. When I tried to open the keynote on another computer using the flash drive t says, "keynote quit unexpectedly". I have tried multiple times but it never worked. Please help, thanks.
Yes, the Old Master file has a folder for each year where I find all photos from that specific year. I am attaching a screen shot of the file.
In the meantime i have managed to download all photos (it did not download any video files though in mpg, avi, 3gp, m4v,mp4 and mov format) to a new iphoto library. Unfortunately the photos are quite mixed and often doubled up. I ma considering to purchase iphoto library which checks all duplicates in iphoto. this will save me a lot of time. What do you think? -
My hard drive died last week, and I needed to install a new one. Previously, I was able to save a .doc with text and inserted photo to .pdf and then to .jpg. Now I can get the .pdf but can't determine what to do to convert to .jpg. Does anyone know ?
Rather than do that, which means starting over from scratch, losing all your edits, organisation and so on, why not simply use iPhoto Library Manager to revert the Library to the older version? Easier, less destructive.
The instructions on that are here
If you really want to start over: you can access the Originals folder simply by going to your Pictures Folder and finding the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
