  • What is the best way to copy aperture library on to external hard drive? I am getting a message that say's "There was an error opening the database. The library could not be opened because the file system of the library's volume is unsupported".

    What is the best way to copy aperture library on to external hard drive? I am getting a message that say's "There was an error opening the database. The library could not be opened because the file system of the library's volume is unsupported". What does that mean? I am trying to drag libraries (with metadata) to external HD...wondering what the best way to do that is?

    Hi Shane.  Not much in the way of thoughts - - but fwiw:
    How is the drive attached?
    Can you open large files on the drive with other programs?
    Are you running any drive compression or acceleration programs (some drives arrive with these installed)?
    Can you reformat the drive and try again?
    Hi Kirby,
    I attached the UltraMax Plus with a USB cable. The UltraMax powers the cable so power is not an issue. I can open other files. Also, there is 500GB of files on the drive so I cannot re-format it. Although, I noted I could import the entire Aperture Library. However, I do not want to create a duplicate on my machine because that would be defeating the purpose of the external drive.

  • What is the best way to install new version... adobe always leaves stuff behind from the old version

    Hi,
    I've gone through the installation of a new version, well... 8 times before. And have noticed that adobe has the nasty habit of not cleanly uninstalling the previous versions...
    What is the best way to do this?
    Should I do a regular install and trust adobe this time to completely remove the old version and its associated directories?
    Or should I uninstall the old version and install the new one? I've always been afraid to go this route bocause of the organizer files.
    Thanks for your comments.

    So, just to be clear:  the "proper, Adobe-recommended" way to go about an upgrade would be to install the new version and THEN remove the older version by means off "Add/Remove programs"  ??
    Thanks to all for your help.

  • What is the best way to Query for a PXI Chassis in TestStand

    Hi All,
    I have some benches that have a PXI Chassis and others without. 
    I would like to Query for the Chassis and if it isn't there I will use another method of testing.
    Is there a way to query for the chassis and if there is how?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You could use the VISA Find Resource function. If you get back PXI[bus]::device[::function][::INSTR] or PXI[interface]::[bus-]device[.function][::INSTR] then you have a PXI chassis

  • I photo pics are in album, but need to upload from add item page on etsy.  Cannot find where the pics are in my computer.  I did put a name on each one.  What is the best way to save an individual pic to be able to find it on the computer so as to upload?

    I have an online etsy shop.  There is a page on which to list a new item to be added to one's shop.  When it is time to upload the pic or pics, I cannot find them,eventhough each has a name and all are in an i photo album.  On my old computer I would "save as" and then could find it easily in my computer.  In the new mac I just got, I cannot easily find the pic when trying to upload.  Could you tell me an easy way to save each pic so that I can find it for uploads to that site?  Thanks in advance. OS is Snow Leopard. Whatever i photo came with that would be the product I am using.

    The following is from a post by Terence Devlin on accessing photos for use outside of iPhoto.  It's the definitive treatise on the subject.
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running: 
    For users of 10.6 and later:
    You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation   which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and 10.5
    Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    1. Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3.Show File:
    a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier:  Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. 
    b. On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. 

  • What is the best way to enable multiple people to work together in Imovie?

    I am teaching a class of seven students who are creating a movie together. How can we set up this project so that they can each have access to the movie project files to work on their part of it? The master media files are on a shared college media file server. But is there a way where we can share access to the actual imovie project? Thanks.

  • What's the best way to wipe user info on OSX without doing a clean install of the OS

    Hello,
    I am going to give my old imac to my nephew so I want to delete myself as an Administrator and user (ie, remove all traces of my personal info).  However I DO NOT want to delete all the installed applications I have installed over the years as they are useful to him.
    Should I just set up a new admin and delete mine or are there other things I can/should do to 'clean out' myself from the system?  (preferences, etc.)
    Thank you!

    chungster wrote:
    Will deleting my admin account delete all my saved passwords in the keychain? 
    Yes
    How about my old emails?  In addition to Mail, I used to use Thunderbird.  Are there any special places that I need to delete files from for those apps?
    Yes old emails are gone. No special places for Thunderbird, emails are kept in the User account folder.
    And finally, if he wants to keep my itunes music, can i just drag my itunes folder into his account prior to deleting my account?
    This is a copyright violation in most cases unless the music is free of that or the license allows it.
    You should deauthorize the iTunes account in the User accounts being deleted, copy protected iTMS content won't play on his account. iTMS music is not copy protected but there is a 5 machine/device limit.
    You can transfer music and other files to his account through the Finder > Computer > Macintosh HD > Users > His account > Public > Dropbox that will change the user permissions on the files.
    Any iTMS purchased content is digitally signed with your personal information embedded into the files themselves.
    If your nephew goes and P2P's your files, you could be held liable for copyright infringement.
    If the music files are cd rips, then there is a good chance they are not digitally signed, however Apple might have done something to the files in the background to assist the RIAA against piracy.
    There is a 5 device limit to iTMS content, so technically since he's family you can control that and it's included in the iTMS content license, but that doesn't apply to cd rips.
    He might not like your music anyway and then seek to share it to get more he does like. So it depends upon the skill level of your nephew if he will do that or not.
    Set up his account on the machine, maintain dual accounts until it's all set up, then log into his and delete your account.
    Copy protected apps with one machine licenses that "phone home" you will have to either delete or buy another license for the new machine if it's a Mac.

  • What is the best way to query for the roles of a 2013 Lync server?

    \LS:MediationServer then it has Mediation role
    But then I really cannot tell for sure for FF or just Standard Editor Server.
    It is the list of server roles described in here that I am interested in. I understand Lync is very flexible in terms of deployment roles.

  • What is the best way to import and edit a large amount of footage?

    Hello Apple world,
    As a newbie to Final Cut 10 I have a question regarding best ways to import footage. I'll give you a quick run down.
    I have a 150 gig of gopro footage that I just hit 'import' to recently (from my external HD), it took around 10 hours to process it all.
    Its all under one event, but then somewhat organised into dates etc. But it is very slow. I imported it all at once because it was all footage from the last 6 months of my Whistler/states/fiji trip and want to make a movie out of it, using clips from all over the time, not just in chronological order.
    I have the latest mac book pro, 4 gig ram,2.4 GHz i7, 750 hard drive, with nothing else on the computer.
    Ive read about creating proxy media, after ive imported, but am still somewhat confused as to the benefit. Does it create duplicates? that will fill up my pretty large HD as it is!
    Can you suggest any ways that might make my laptop run a bit faster? Should i delete and work directly from external HD etc etc?
    Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks in advance

    Hello,

    My questions:
    1)  What is the best way to start a new project and import the footage without having to render whilst editing, so as to retain all resolution and originality of the source footage?
    2)  What is the best way/ codec/ format to export this same footage once editing is complete so as to retain that crisp 1080p for which the 5D is so recognized?
    3)  What is the best way/ codec/ format to import and export/ render between premiere and after effects?  I am speaking mostly of vfx and color correction.  I also have some 30fps footage that I intend to slow down in AE and then import into premiere.
    I know this is pretty broad, but as a solo filmmaker I really need someone's guidance.  I rarely ever finish my films with the same, crisp look as the footage.  I need pipeline help, and really appreciate it!
    1. Follow the advice above. Also use the Media Browser to import the footage in case you have spanned media files. Import files with the Media Browser.
    2. It largely depends on what you wish to ouput to: Blu-ray, web, etc. This FAQ gives the best answer: What are the best export settings?
    3. Use the Replace with Adobe After Effects Composition function.

  • What is the best way to use Swing GUIs in an MVC design?

    I have a question on how to build an application using swing frames for the UI, but using an MVC architecture. I've checked the rest of the forum, but not found an answer to my question that meets my needs.
    My application at this stage presents a login screen to get the userid and password, or to allow the user to choose a new locale. If an Enter action is performed, the userid and password are checked against the DB. If not accepted, the screen is repainted with a "try-again" message. If the Cancel action is performed, the process stops. If a locale action is performed, the screen is repainted with different langauge labels. Once the login process is passed, a front screen (another swing frame) is presented.
    Implementation: I am using a session object (Session, represents the user logging in) that calls the Login screen (LoginGUI, a Swing JFrame object with various components). Session uses setters in LoginGUI to set the labels, initial field entries etc, before enabling the screen. From this point, the user will do something with the LoginGUI screen - could be closing the window, entering a mix of userid and password, or maybe specifying a locale. Once the user has taken the action, if required, the session object can use getters to retrieve the userid and password values entered in the fields.
    The crux of the problem is 1) how will Session know that an action has been taken on the LoginGUI, and 2) how to tell what action has been taken.
    This could be solved by getting LoginGUI to call back to Session, however, I am trying to buid the application with a good separation of business, logic and presentation (i.e MVC, but not using any specific model). Therefore, I do not want LoginGUI to contain any program flow logic - that should all be contained in Session.
    I am aware of two possible ways to do this:
    1. Make LoginGUI synchronised, so that Session waits for LoginGUI to send a NotifyAll(). LoginGUI could hold a variable indicating what has happened which Session could interrogate.
    2. Implement Window Listener on Session so that it gets informed of the Window Close action. For the other two actions I could use a PropertyChangeListener in Session, that is notified when some variable in LoginGUI is changed. This variable could contain the action performed.
    Has anyone got any comments on the merits of these methods, or perhaps a better method? This technique seems fundamental to any application that interfaces with end-users, so I would like to find the best way.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    I tried to avoid putting in specific code as my question was more on design, and I wanted to save people having to trawl through specific code. And if I had any school assignments outstanding they would be about 20 years too late :-). I'm not sure computers more sophisticated than an abacus were around then...
    Rather than putting the actual code (which is long and refers to other objects not relevant to the discussion), I have put together two demo classes to illustrate my query. Comments in the code indicate where I have left out non-relevant code.
    Sessiondemo has the main class. When run, it creates an instance of LoginGUIdemo, containing a userid field, password field, a ComboBox (which would normally have a list of available locales), an Enter and a Cancel box.
    When the Locale combo box is clicked, the LoginGUIdemo.userAction button is changed (using an ActionListener) and a property change is fired to Session (which could then perform some work). The same technique is used to detect Enter events (pressing return in password and userid, or clicking on Enter), and to detect Cancel events (clicking on the cancel button). Instead of putting in business code I have just put in System.out.printlns to print the userAction value.
    With this structure, LoginGUIdemo has no business logic, but just alerts Sessiondemo (the class with the business logic).
    Do you know any more elegant way to achieve this function? In my original post, I mentioned that I have also achieved this using thread synchronisation (Sessiondemo waits on LoginGUI to issue a NotifyAll() before it can retrieve the LoginGUI values). I can put together demo code if you would like. Can you post any other demo code to demonstrate a better technique?
    Cheers,
    Alan

  • What is the best way to port complete applications from DEV - Test - PROD

    Hi,
    One of my customers recently asked me, Supposing I do the complete integrations and modelling in SOA Suite on the DEV Environment. Then,
    What is the best way to port complete applications from DEV -> Test -> PROD ??
    Also, since the URLs in use in the DEV environment would be very different from other environments, what is the easiest way to maintain them, and to build in Access Control mechanisms ?
    Best Regards

    It has been discussed here in detail-
    SOA 11g  Composite Deployment across multiple Instances: Best Practice
    since the URLs in use in the DEV environment would be very different from other environments, what is the easiest way to maintain them, and to build in Access Control mechanisms ?You may use deployment plan for this purpose. For access control, you may use Role Based access of Weblogic and EM. Please refer -

  • What is the best way to protect it?

    I HATE getting scratches or any sort of cosmetical damage on my devices, I am getting my first MBP on Friday, and want to know what the best way to keep it like new is?
    It won't be leaving the house regularly for a while, but I do have a neoprene case which I think it will fit for travelling anyway.
    I have seen many people with cases on their Macs, I don't know what the proper name is for them, but they are like hard shells attached to the back of the lid, are these recommended? I have read about some heat issues with it.
    What is the best way to protect the screen? I don't ever touch it, so I don't think that will be a problem, but cleaning dust off etc.?
    Lastly, will the trackpad wear away? My laptop's trackpad has slightly faded from it being used a lot, are MBP's prone to this too? I will try to use a mouse as much as possible.
    Are there any other things I should know about? I read that the bottom can get scratched easily too? I would only use it on a flat surface, so something like my lap, so depending on how soft the metal is... It can't be that bad can it?
    Thanks!

    Wouldnt buy that, nope
    Hard cases protect the finish of your macbook, but they trap in heat, ....many here have spoken on same.
    A major part of a macbook pro, especially a RETINA PRO is dissipating heat from the alloy case, which this case prevents from happening.
    Yes, youre stopping all the scratch,.....and likewise keeping the Macbook from dissipating a lot of heat.
