Migrate from image, copy image to harddrive

Hi,
I had to send in my macbook. I backed up the whole harddrive (74gb) on an external harddrive using the disk utilities (saved it as a dmg file). Question is now, how to get that on my new machine.

Hi Daniel,
Welcome to the discussions.
Go back to Disk Utility
Select your hard disk and click Restore (last tab)
Choose the location of the diskimage at Source
Drag the disk you want to restore to Destination
Click Restore
That's it

Image or Migrate from external HD

I need to setup over 30 macs in the next few weeks and i want the easiest way to do it.
i have an external HD with "User" folder on it.... can Migration Assistance on boot up see this and migrate from HD? or do I have to do a full install of Leopard on that HD first?
second, what about a disk image... what's the best method.
i need to keep this image updated constantly and distribute to new units we get.
all of the will have same user name, password and network settings.
thank you

A server is only needed if you want to do network installs.
Migration Assistant is intended for moving user folders not entire system installs.
Yes, you can simply clone a default system to an external drive and then clone that system to each of the computers. You can use SuperDuper, Carbon Copy Cloner, Disk Utility, or any other utility that can create bootable clones.
As I suggested, however, you should visit Mike Bombich's site. Lots of useful information and tools for what you want to do.

OAS 10R2 image copy migration

Hi All,
We have applications with Oracle forms and reports and connecting to an Oracle database. The OAS version used for this is OAS10gR2 on a Server with Solaris 9 OS. we are planning to upgrade to Solaris 10 version. i would like to know the following :
1. If we perform a live upgrade from Solaris 9 to Solaris 10 on the existing server, will there be a need to reinstall OAS on the server? Also will there be a need to recompile and install all the fmb and mmb files? (will the existing fmx still work with OAS after upgrade of OS without any modification?)
2. If we perform an image copy of the existing server (Solaris 9, OAS 10R2 and fmx, mmx etc) onto a new server hardware and then do a live upgrade of the OS on new h/w to Solaris 10, will there be a need to reinstall the OAS? and will there be a need to compile the form and reports to have new executable?
The current server is a physical dedicated server and we are planning to retain the same architecture after migration as well.
Thanks in advance!

Hi GN!
I would think that copying the files will not be enough, as the DCM will not have the information about the deployed applications. Just redeploy them and it should waok as well as on the original server.

How to copy images from another MC in reversed order??

Hi everyone,
I'm new to AS3 and have been fighting and searching for a solution to this problem for a week now, and I'm VERY close!
I crated a MC holding of a series of images (about 50) and I jump around in it using plenty AS3 scripts (most of which I don't fully understand yet, but I'm working on that to! )
I had to find a way to "rewind" (= play backwards) the MC. Since there is a stop(); command in almost every frame, prevFrame does not work and if I put that in a loop, it goes WAY to fast (but worked).. So I could think of only one way...
Create a new (reverserd) MC with the same image sequence ald reverse it manually and play that one.
This all works fine (very proud of it ).
Now my question:
To get this to work for multiple image sequences, I have to load all images twice (once in MC_1 and again in MC_2 and select them and reverse them).
Not a big one, unless you want to create MANY of those SWF's...
Is it possible to load the 50 images of the first MC in reverse into the second MC dynamically? JUST the images, noting else.
extra info: the MC_2 is already in the lib(empty) and placed on the stage.
something like:
var pointer:Number=1;
for (var:i:Number=50;i>=0;i--) {
get MC_1.picure(var);
put it in MC_2.frame(pointer);
pointer = pointer + 1;
All help is welcome and please take into account that I have little experience and copy most of my scripting from people like you
T.I.A.
Melluw

I tried your advice (thanks for that)
The event I already have is the mouse leave
I //-d out the part I removed (what did work)
The code I ended up with is:
function Start() {
stage.addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_LEAVE, cursorHide);
function cursorHide(evt:Event):void {
var currFrame = MC_1.currentFrame;
if (CCW == true) { //it is true in this case
movStart = (50 - currFrame);
else {
movStart = currFrame;
if (movStart>25) {
MC_1.prevFrame();
// removed swapChildren(MC_1, MC_2); // This is the part I removed
// removed MC_2.gotoAndPlay(movStart);
else {
MC_1.gotoAndPlay (movStart);
And if I leave the stage on the part where movStart is indeed >25
Nothing happens,
So I guess this is not what you meant
Subject: Action Script 3 how to copy images from another MC in reversed order??
I cannot direct you in the loading of the images approach, it will be too complicated, and will probably not work anyways... when you move away from a frame that has dynamic content, you lose the content. So basically, there is nothing practical in taking that approach.
I do niot understand what the problem will be with the enterFrame/prevFrame approach. If everything you can do with the mouse is already used (which I doubt) by the first mc, then there is nothing else you can do with this file. You probably just need to rethink your control scheme. You should search Google for "AS3 slideshow tutorial", and to lighten up your design, add "XML" in that search.

I can`t copy image from the web sites to Microsoft Word, since I update firefox ! Why ? How I can fix it ???

<blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>

I am tryin to copy image form ZABBIX to Word document. Everything was fine before update and now I am having a problem

More generally, when you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
(You also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now")
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first) using either of these:
While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

How can I prevent my images from being copied?

This is a perennial question, but the simple answer is that you can't. It's impossible.
Don't believe snake oil adverts for products that claim to prevent images from being copied. Once an image is displayed on a computer, there are numerous ways of copying it. "Solutions" that prevent users from right-clicking or pressing Print Screen can be disabled by turning off JavaScript in the browser; and screen grabbing software can easily make a copy of an image.
If you want to show your photography on the web, but don't want others to steal your images, consider the following options:
Add a watermark to your images.
Embed copyright information in the metadata of your images.
Save images at low resolution (72dpi is standard on the web, but useless for printing).
The following image uses all three techniques:
You can create a Photoshop action to watermark images. Use the File Info dialog box in Bridge CS4 to add copyright metadata to your images.

I asked a question. Hans was kind enough to give me a solution, and for that I thank him! I have also learned a little more in the process!
We have already established that the solution stops people right clicking on an image and saving the image (be it in Windows Explorer or not), but it has also been established that it is by no means a fool proof way of protecting images and that there are other ways of copying images from a webpage. However, it is another level of protection.
Unfortunately, I do not want to watermark my images as I do not like looking as watermarked images myself. I also downsize my images for the web. I was just looking for another level of protection.
Thanks for the input anyway!

How do I copy image from web and paste into Open Office Document

Whenever I choose Copy Image from Safari and then paste into open office, I only get the image url and not the image. I am sure that I am not selecting Copy Image Address.
When I copy images from my iTunes album artwork and paste into open office it works fine.
Any thoughts?

I have done the same thing using Firefox and it works just fine. It seems to be an issue with Safari.

Can I Stop my Images from being Copied from my Web Pages

On some websites I visit, it prevents you from right clicking on the image and saving it. A message pops up saying the image cannot be copied.
Would any of you kind folk know of a way I can stop my images from being saved from my Dreamweaver web pages?
Many thanks in advance for your anticipated help!

Can I copy images from Album to Album

Can I "copy" images from Album to Album and then expect to be able to export that data into Keynote?
I put copy in quotes because I am such a new user I am not even sure at this point when I am copying or moving images as opposed to pointers.
But the bottom line is that I need to know if I can use the data in Albums that I see images in for a presentation.
Thanks.

Aperture 3 does have a few things that work in different ways than Ap2, but dragging images to albums is the same. Cut/copy has never been a feature. It works in a different way. Allan

Tiff Decompressor needed for Images copied from PDF?

I typed in "Tiff decompressor" into Photoshop's Help (which was no help as is common), and also did a forum search, but nothing came up.
Before I go any further, a message to those who write Helps:
i make sure that every term that is used within the program, including its error messages, is findable in Help.
Some background: I'm generating a book that has lots of photos that are higher resolution than required for final print. I don't know of any way that I can resample them all to 300 dpi at final print size other than exporting to PDF. I don't want to print just yet. I want to resample all the images to reduce the total size of the book for archiving purposes. So I've exported all the chapters to PDF simply as a way of resampling all the images, then I can backup the PDFs and use those as the archive for the 300 dpi images.
Problem: when I tried to get back an image from one of these PDFs, to make sure it was really 300 dpi, I did this:
1. Selected the image in the PDF.
2. Copied it.
3. Opened a new document in Photoshop CS.
4. Pasted.
5. Got a message that said: "Quicktime and a Tiff (Uncompressed) decompressor are needed to see this picture."
Trusty Google, did a much better job of solving the problem. It turns out if I open Preview and then select File > New From Clipboard, the image is imported into Preview from where I can save it as a Tiff image that PS is able to open.
Q1: If Preview can do it, why can't PS. given that the image originally came from PS, went into InDesign, then to PDF... but it won't come back straight to PS. Why?
Q2: How do I extract an image from a PDF and get it straight into PS?
Q3: The image (when I do get it into PS via Preview) has been flattened. Is there any way to keep all the layers.
Q4: Is there any way I can avoid all the above steps (InDesign > PDF > Preview > PS) when all I want to do is extract all the images from an InDesign document, have them resampled to 300 dpi (not only downsampled; resampled preferably, up and down), and send them to a folder for archiving.

>Q2: How do I extract an image from a PDF and get it straight into PS?
In Acrobat and not the reader version:
Option click twice with the Touch Up Tool. This will open the embedded Photoshop file in Photoshop directly with the correct resolution when the PDF was saved. Be careful to note that Grayscale files as well as Spots will open with a dialog of "unsupported color space" It's a bug you just have to live with for now.

You don't want to go there...

HT201302 iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer, but I want to reverse the process and copy images from my desktop Windows PC to my new iPad Mini. Is this possible in some more direct way than through copying several

Instead of copying images (jpgs, etc) from my iPad Mini to my desktop PC, I'd like to do the opposite, that is, copy existing images from my PC files to my Mini without going through a multi-email process which involves resizing the images by experiment.
I hope someday Adobe Lightroom can add this feature, but I'll settle for some simple transfer, perhaps by cable between my PC and my Mini.

You can do it via your computer's iTunes. If you are on iTunes 11 on your computer then you may want to re-enable the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar (option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), which might make it easier to navigate and my instructions may make more sense.
To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you've enabled the sidebar), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
If you haven't enabled the sidebar, then from your library click 'iPad' at the top right of the screen and you should get a series of buttons along the top of the screen, including one for Photos

How do you Automatically Copy Images From Camera?

I would like to create an AppleScript that will run when I plug in my digital camera. Here is what I cannot figure out.
How to make it run when the camera is plugged in.
How tow to copy images from camera to a designated folder.
Thanks!

You can do all you requested - without 'AppleScript'.
01. Connect your camera launch 'Image Capture' ('/Applications/' folder - if it does not automatically launch.
02. Select the 'Image Capture, Preferences...' menu item.
03. Click on the 'General' tab.
04. From the 'Camera:' 'When a camera is connected, open:' pop up menu - select the 'Image Capture.app' menu item.
05. From the 'Devices' menu select your camera from the menu items list. A window will appear with the title of your camera.
06. From the 'Download To:' pop up menu select where to save the camera's photographs. You can select any folder anywhere on your hard disk drive(s).
07. Click the 'Options...' button, and from the drop down sheet click on the 'Connection Options' 'Automatically download all items' check box - to add a check mark. There are other options you may have be interested in.
08. Click on the 'OK' button.
09. If you want to download the photographs now - click on the window's 'Download All' button. Or, to test the above setting changes - quit 'Image Capture' and disconnect your camera. Then reconnect the camera - and watch the above setting changes take effect.
Note:
The above automatic action can also happen if the storage device of the camera were inserted into a USB digital camera card reader. So long as apply the Steps above, and you select the USB digital camera card reader from the 'Devices' menu's menu item list in Step 05 above.
'Image Capture' is not scriptable; but, may be control-able via 'tell application "System Events" to tell process "Image Capture" ....
When a camera is connect to the Mac, the storage card of the camera is mounted onto the 'Desktop' and also listed, as an alias, in the (invisible) '/Volumes/' folder.
Now that you know the name of the storage card ... you can create a 'Folder Action Script' (an example is presented below) and save it into the '/Library/Script/Folder Action Scripts/' folder,
Open the '/Volumes./' folder (in 'Finder' via 'Go, Go to Folder' - enter '/Volumes/').
Perform a right button click ('<control> - click, for single button users) on the 'Volumes' folder's window, and select 'Enable Folder Actions' (if not already).
Rpeat the right button click (<control> click) and select 'Attach a Folder Action...' - selecting your script ('Volumes_FAS.scpt' as shown below).
Below is a 'Folder Action Script' example - where you will have to substitute 'NO NAME' with the name of your digital camera's storage card's name.
-- --- Save code as a script with the name 'Volumes_FAS.scpt' --- --
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items
set myStorageCard to "NO NAME" -- The name of my 1 GB stroage card. The name of your card may differ.
repeat with i in added_items
tell application "Finder" to set tName to (name of i) as string -- Obtain name of mounted storage card.
if (tName is equal to myStorageCard) then my handle_card(i) -- If my storage card, continue processing.
end repeat
end adding folder items to
on handlecard(localVolume)
set folder_Path to ((path to desktop folder from user domain) as string) -- Path to 'Desktop' folder.
set download_Folder to "NO_NAME Photographs" -- Name of folder to store storage card's items (files and folders).
-- create download_Folder, if it does not exists.
tell application "Finder" to if (not (exists folder (folder_Path & download_Folder))) then make new folder at (folder_Path as alias) with properties {name:download_Folder}
-- Duplicate all the items (files and folders) of the storage device to the '~/Desktop/NO_NAME Photographs' folder.
tell application "Finder" to duplicate items of local_Volume to (folder_Path & download_Folder) as alias
end handle_card
-- --- End of code --- --
Review 'Finder's dictionary (in 'Script Editor') for the various ways to incorporate 'duplicate ...'.
