3 reasons why i won't switch to Lightroom for now

Lightroom is so nice, so intuitive & user-friendly that I almost switch from Bibble to Lightroom even if there are some very important features missing in order to call lightroom a professional grade application.
Here are the major reasons why i wont switch to Lightroom for now:
1. Missing a good sharpening tool
2. Missing a good noise reduction tool like Noise Ninja
3. Missing an automated lens correction tool like PTLens
I think the last 3 will not be a problem any more when Adobe releases the SDK When do you think the SDK will be available ?
Would also be very useful:
1. Ability to export a slideshow to DVD (as a wedding photographer, i usually provide my customers with a low res slideshow of their pictures at the end of the wedding day).
2. Option to print to file or option to export to any color profile (the lab where I send most of my print work have their printer profiled & they provide those custom profiles). As a work around, i can for now have an export action that do the profile conversion thru a Photoshop droplet this work but would be better to have that feature built in
In order to work around for the print to file or to jpg file that Im missing, I tried 1 of those virtual printer driver like Miraplacid Publisher It does work but there seems to be a problem with color management... When I print from Photoshop to this virtual printer, I get a jpg file that match exactly what I see on the screen when I try the same with lightroom, I get a jpg file where colors are not exactly what Im expecting
Should those features be available, I would not hesitate even 1 minute to switch to lightroom.

My answer to your reasons:
1) and 2) I just take care of taking sharp pictures. I can't see the need of a sharpening tool. I use LR as my digital darkroom, if I want to retouching a picture I have PS Elements and Noise Ninja. AND the new LR 1.1 has a much improved noise reduction and sharpening tool.
OK. I'm not saying that everybody should learn how to shoot properly so that the use of sharpening or noise reduction wouldn't be required, but there are IMHO other tools that can fit the requirements of the casual photographer or photoblogger.
The same for 3. I never needed any lens correction mechanism. I can't see a reason for that either. I don't have lenses that need any correction and I don't like to do fancy stuff on my pictures.
LR gives me exactly what I need, and waht I need is a program to download and work with several hundreds of pictures from my digital SLR, this means basically cropping and applying a colour profile. And IMHO LR does this pretty well, plus all the catalogue and managing stuff. I can care myself for the rest pretty well.

I need to know the multitude of reason why my iPhone 5s would prompt me for my Apple ID password. Please help.

I need to know the multitude of reason why my iPhone 5s would prompt me for my Apple ID password.
All I did was place my phone on the charger, I then walked away for 10-15mins and when I came back it was asking me to enter my Apple ID password.
I never gave my password out to anyone ever and hardly anyone knows my email address.
I haven't recently downloaded anything either and I only have one apple device which is my iPhone 5s.
I just want to know really if it could have been because someone was trying to log into my Apple ID?
Please help with multiple reasons why this could have happened. I just want to know the options. Thank you

My iPhone 5s did the same thing yesterday. I have iCloud backup turned on in Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup and that means it will automatically do a backup when the phone is plugged in, locked and connected to wi-fi. I had it charging and when I returned it was asking for the password and the prompt did identify that it was requesting it for the iCloud backup (something you may not have noticed if you didn't look closely).
It has never done that before and 2 iPads in my household have not yet done it. All are on iOS 7.1
I have found a report of the same issue by a user of the 7.1 beta and in that case it was happening every day. In my case I entered the password then went to the same area in Settings as above and used the "Backup Now" button to do a backup. I will see tonight when I charge again whether this is going to be an every day problem.

REGARDING INABILITY TO INSTALL ITUNES 7.7--NEW REASONS WHY IT WON'T INSTALL

as I discovered after online chatting with a Hewlett-Packard specialist...it's advisable to run Norton Security Scan in your computer's safemode...its possible your install is being blocked by hidden spyware or viruses or worms or trojans etc...
Although my issue involves an HP Computer, so long as you're using a PC this solution should work for any of you...i hope so, anyway

The whole point of Norton (or any anti-malware software) is to be pro-active and detect these things as they arise, not retro-active in requiring you to scan for them afterwards.
Not that it's particularly poor advice of course, but it's very general - after all, HP don't offer any support for iTunes (it's not their software after all), so that's about the best you'll get from them.

Welcome to the Apple community.
Have you confirmed that the movie has subtitles.

Why is it not switching?

it's an incomplete programming, but overall it compiles and shows what I expect to except for the translation part. Can someone tell me why it won't switch the int # of the month into the name of the month?
import java.util.Scanner;
public class LeapYear
public static void main(String[] args)
Scanner kb = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter a date (year month day): ");
int year = kb.nextInt();
int month = kb.nextInt();
int day = kb.nextInt();
if(year < 1582)
System.out.println("Invalid year.");
System.exit(0);
if(month<1||month>12)
System.out.println("Invalid month.");
System.exit(0);
//it doesn't switch from here onwards.
***String englishMonth;***
***switch(month)***
*** case 1: englishMonth= "January"; break;***
***// case '2': System.out.print("February"); break;***
***// case '3': System.out.print("March"); break;***
**/ case '4': "April"; break;***
*** case '5': "May" ; break;***
*** case '6': "June" ; break;***
*** case '7': "July"; break;***
*** case '8': "August"; break;***

*** case '11': "November"; break;***
*** case '12': "December"; break;*/***
*** default:***
*** System.out.println("Unavailable");***
**}** System.out.println("Date: " + "\t" + month + " " + day + ", " + year);

}Fascinating little bit of code! Reminds me of a "bug" I onced fixed
The problem is that the integer 1 is not the same as the character '1'. Remove the single quotes from the numbers in your case statement
edit: actually, it's impossible to really tell why it "doesn't switch" because you've posted code that won't compile

7 good reasons, why artist=album name is not the solution for compilations

Hi,
in this forum everytime the compilations-problem is discussed, somebody comes up with the solution to fill the album-name into the artist name field and to set the song-title name to "Artist / Song-Title". This might help with the cover-flow issue but does have the following downsides:
7 good reasons, why artist=album name is no alternative for compilations
========================================================================
1) It messes up the artist search.
2) Unability to turn the display of artists on compilations on or off on demand without changing all the tags
3) The mp3 tags are not used in the standard way
4) "Artist / Song-Title" as song-title name is often too long to display
5) The album name appears twice in the song information display when the song is playing (as the artist name and as the album name)
6) This is not consistent with how it works in iTunes
7) People owning a lot of compilations are forced to do A LOT of manual changes only to "fix it" back when (hopefully soon) a new firmware fixing this issue arrives
I already posted this as an answer in another thread but I thought it might be helpful to discuss this in an own thread. What do you think about the reasons? Can you add additional reasons?
If Apple really left out the compilations-flag on purpose (see http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=5401783#5401783) we might need some good arguments to bring it back in.
Best regards, Jens

Yes, I agree with your list. I also think it is inconceivable that Apple simply forgot to add the compilations feature. There obviously has to be a good reason for this. However, I haven't got a clue what that reason might be.

Please explain for me the reason why?

I have a query follwing:
select a.cell, money, case when a.cell in (select cell from danhba where desc <> 1)
then NVL(vat, 0) else 0 end vat
from
select cell,sum(money) money, NVL(sum(vat),0) vat
from summary
where item_id =100 and object_id not in (2,3,4,21)
group by cell
) a
This query is ok and records are returned
But when i modified that query to:
select * from (
select a.cell, money, case when a.cell in (select cell from danhba where desc<>1)
then NVL(vat, 0) else 0 end vat
from
select cell,sum(money) money, NVL(sum(vat),0) vat
from summary
where item_id =100 and object_id not in (2,3,4,21)
group by cell
) a
) where vat = 0
Then, PL/SQL show error: ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel => next message: ORA-03114: not connected to oracle.
I don't know the reason why?
Can anybody explain that error for me?
Thanks in advance!

This normally happens when you've hit a bug.
There should be a trace file generated which will contain some further information, possibly an ORA-0600 error.
You should open a support ticket with Oracle / use the ORA-0600 lookup tool on metalink if relevant.
Even if it is a big, you may find that you can avoid the issue by rewriting your sql, often using the WITH statement.

Since the ios7 update I go to use my camera and switch to video and it won't switch ! ..why is this ? HELP

Thanks stedman1 for continuing to push this interface change news... I must have taken 100 photos last night (of my shoes) trying to switch to video (unsuccessfully). Very frustrating.
OTOH, like many Apple interface innovations, it is simple to learn and easy to remember.
Honestly, that's all we can ask for, there really ain't no intuitive.

Is there a reason why my ID3 tags won't update in the artist view in the music app?

I've never had a problem with messing with them manually in itunes before until iOS 5. For example, I don't like to see an artist repeated in the artist list, so I go through and edit all the songs at one to make sure that artist appears only once. I've tried doing it with the new OS but nothing updates. It's even gone so far as to completely omit any new artists that I have added. Anyone else experiencing anything like this?

Any other reason why this it's still under headphone mode?
I'm pretty sure the fact that it was in the washer is the problem. Just because you 'dried' it in the sun doesn't mean it wasn't permanenlty damaged. Try putting it in a bag of rice for 5-7 days. If it still doesn't work, it's probably permanent.

HT5149 Hi, I still have problems reinstalling Final Cut Pro even though I followed these steps. Didn´t find "com.apple.motionapp.plist" to remove though, but the others I found. Reason why I have to reinstall is because I have repaired my Macbook Pro hard

Hi, I still have problems reinstalling Final Cut Pro even though I followed these steps.
Reason why I have to reinstall is because I have repaired my Macbook Pro hard drive at a Mac Authorized Repair.
Short history of repair and my Final Cut Pro installation:
1. Macbook Pro stopped working, sendt it for repair. Had the Final Cut Pro installed,
2. Desided to try a MiniMac and recovered my backup with Time Machine, got the Final Cut Pro working.
3. Got my Macbook Pro back from repair, did backup on this one as well. But this time only the files not the Applications.
4. Removed the files as mentioned in HT5149. Didn´t find "com.apple.motionapp.plist" to remove though, but the others I found.
5. When I try to install Final Cut Pro from App Store, it downloads the application as planned. But after download it won´t show in the Application folder nor in the downloads folder, nor will it start an installation prosess. If I pause the installation in App Store, I can see the Final Cut Pro icon in my Dock. (But, as mentioned, after installation it won´t show neither here or in the Applications folder).
Any suggestions on what I should try now?
Thanks for any reply, I´m in deep water here...

Sounds like there is a file you're not getting. Never do a removal manually. It's so time consuming and a pain. There's a very easy and fast way to do this, safely, properly.
Get the free "Final Cut Remover" app from Digital Rebellion (dot com), use this to remove FCP X.
Reboot the Mac.
Download from scratch.
If you're not seeing FCP X in your app folder, run Disk Utility to Repair all drives.
If that doesn't help, try running Disk Warrior from Altsoft to repair the directories on all drives.
