A "Picture in Picture" Situation

I think I may have taken on a bit more than i can handle with this project.
I have been asked to create a "Picture in Picture" situation, What i am wanting is to have the background of the File Static with the food menu consistently rolling over coming from a .txt file so it is easy to change the wording and prices, while having adds (up to 50) running on the other half of the screen cutting in and out of Bloopers. I have seen in done once before and was told it was all done in flash, can anyone please help me out, even a tutorial would be great, I have tried the Variable text to no avail, does this need a starting code??
Thanks Heaps in Advance

please don't cross-post.

Applescript: enclosing a picture in Mail so it is in the body of the text

have a script on my server that sends mails using The Mail (Apple) Programme.
It encloses a picture situated on the desktop (the script is larger, where it generates the picture and trashes it afterwards).
Now the picture arrives as an enclosure and I would like it to appear at the end of the text (in other words in the body of the text not as an enclosure). How do I amend the script I have? I have no idea as to how to do this or where to begin. any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks.
The script is the following at present:
set dFolder to "/Users/XYZ/Desktop/"
tell application "Finder" to try
 set tFiles to ((every file whose name contains "NameofPNG")) as alias list
on error
 set tFiles to ((every file whose name contains "NameofPNG")) as alias as list
end try
set docfolderpath to path to desktop folder as string
set yourfolder to "~/Desktop/" --------- the folder with the documents
set pathtoyourfolder to docfolderpath & yourfolder & ":" as string
set FNDVAR to "NameofPNG" --------"FIND" variable for the files
set ppath to quoted form of POSIX path of pathtoyourfolder
set theSender to "[email protected]"
set thercpnt to "[email protected]"
set theFiles to (do shell script "mdfind -onlyin " & "~/Desktop/" & " 'kMDItemDisplayName == \"*" & FNDVAR & "*\"'") ------seems to be faster than finder
set theattachmentspaths to {} ------preparing list for attachment paths
repeat with x from 1 to the count of paragraphs in theFiles
 set theF to alias POSIX file (paragraph x of theFiles)
 set end of theattachmentspaths to theF
end repeat
tell application "Finder"
 set theSubject to short date string of (current date) & (" XYZ")
 set theBody to "XYZ"
 tell application "Mail"
 delay 2
 set newMessage to make new outgoing message with properties {address:thercpnt, subject:theSubject, content:theBody & return & return}
 tell newMessage
 set visible to true
 set sender to theSender
 make new to recipient at beginning of to recipients with properties {address:thercpnt}
 repeat with y from 1 to count of items in theattachmentspaths
 delay 2
 set theAttachment to item y in theattachmentspaths
 tell content
 make new attachment with properties {file name:theAttachment} at after the last paragraph
 end tell
 delay 2
 end repeat
 end tell
 delay 2
 send newMessage
 end tell
 activate
end tell

Looks complicated. I looked at the source to an email with imbeded pictures.
The email contains multiple mime types.
Apple mail automatically imbeds the picture.
I your using someother email client, you need to create an html document with the pictures references.
example:
relatives and staff. <img src=3D"cid:X.MA5.139511246=
[email protected]" border=3D"0" width=3D"469" height=3D"334"> Mary Poppins=
 Erna Schenk, 78 
<img src=3D"cid:[email protected]" border=3D"0" width=3D"469" he=
ight=3D"334"> The Seven Year Itch Ingeborg Giolbass, 84,=20
 und Erich Endlein, 88 7.=20
No, I do not know what this 3D is all about.
follow: [email protected]
ignore the fact that this is made into an email link.
which references another mime:
Content-Type: image/jpeg; name="image.jpg"
Content-Disposition: inline; filename="image.jpg"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-ID: <[email protected]>

In my library of photos I have 1128 pics, but when I try to syncronize my iPod with these photos only I can save almost the half of pictures, How can I resolve this situation

In my libray of photos I have 1128 pics, but when I try to syncronize my iPod, only can I copy the half of them, How can I resolve this situation

See:
iTunes: Unable to sync photos
If yo are using the folder syncing method do you have all the photos in one folder?
Is there anything different about the photos that do sync and those that do not?

Rotating objects in a table

I have dropped an object (picture) into a pages document. Then I rotated it with 90°. When I copy or drop the picture into the cell of a table, it is rotated back into the original orientation and I cannot rotate it any more.
Is there a possibility to rotate objects in table cells?

The only way I can find to do it actually doesn't insert the graphic in the table per se. It's a workaround that may or may not suit your purposes. FWIW:
1. Click outside the margin and insert a shape (square) as Fixed on Page and in the Wrap Inspector deselect Object Causes Wrap.
2. Drag it over the cell you want the picture in and size it to fit the cell.
3. In the Graphic Inspector's drop down Fill menu, choose Image Fill and choose your picture (rotated as you want it). In the drop down menu below the Fill menu, select either Scale to Fit or Scale to Fill, as necessary.
4. When you have the picture situated as you want it, click on the picture and shift click on the table and from the Arrange menu select Group.
At this point you can set it for Moves With text if that is what you need, or leave it as Fixed on Page and position it where you want it.
Hope this helps.

My pictures won't show up on my Hard Drive when I try to view them from my MacBook Pro

I just came back from a trip and have been trying to get my pictures off my iPhone and other camera to put on my external hard drive (it's about 17 GB, so I don't want to waste the space by keeping them on my MacBook). I transferred all the pictures from my phone to iphoto and then to my Hard Drive, and they showed up fine. I had to use the family PC though to get the pictures off of my camera and then transfer them to the same folder on my Hard Drive.
After having consolidated everything, I plugged my hard drive back into my MacBook to view my pictures, but although the folder was there, it appeared empty. I was really worried I had lost all my pictures, but that wasn't the case. When I plugged the hard drive back into the PC they were all there.
I tried taking the folder off the Hard Drive and putting it on my desktop. This worked- all the pictures were back. I didn't want to leave it there though, because they take up so much space, so I deleted the old folder on the Hard Drive and put that folder back. That seemed to work- I was able to see all the pictures again. However, when I plugged the Hard Drive back into my MacBook this morning, the pictures were gone again in the same way *** before.
I am really baffled as to what's going on here. I was hoping someone could tell me how I can keep the pictures on my Hard Drive and be able to view them there.

This is true of course, but doesn't cover the situation where some files are in the iTunes Media folder and others are on an external drive. In my case I keep my music in the Media folder and all my films on an external drive (there are too many to have on the internal drive). In iTunes 11, and before, it was easy to add those external files by holding down the alt/opt key while dragging to the sidebar. In iTunes 12 this is no longer possible. There are several workarounds: use TuneSpan to move the file after it's been added; delete the file from the Media folder and empty the trash then use iTunes Get Info which will report the file is missing and allow you to locate it; constantly switch the Add to iTunes toggle on and off as required. All of these require a lot more work than just holding down the alt/opt key while adding.
It constantly gets harder.

How do I get the pictures from my iPhoto on my external Hard Drive to show up in the already existing iPhoto on my MacBook?

I have an early 2008 MacBook. I had been using iPhoto on this MacBook until I purchased an iMac in 2011, at which time I copied my iPhoto Library from my MacBook to my iMac. Then I realized that my pictures and music were consuming the memory on my iMac, so I moved iPhoto and my iTunes LIbrary to an external Hard Drive. Now I am in a situation where I do not have access to my iMac, but will need to use my MacBook as my main computer for the next year. So, I have my iPhoto on an external hard drive and I plug it into my MacBook and see the iPhoto Library folder, but when I click on it, it opens up the old iPhoto that is still existing on my MacBook and will not show any of the new pictures?! At first I thought it wasn't able to show up anything because my MacBook was running two operating systems behind what my iMac was when I was running my iPhoto Library from that computer. So, I upgraded to OS X 10.7.5 and upgraded the existing iPhoto on my MacBook to iPhoto '11 version 9.4.3. However whenever I plug in the external hard drive and click on the iPhoto Library folder to open it up, it is still just opening up the already existing iPhoto on the MacBook (with my older pictures) rather than the iPhoto on the hard drive (with my newer pictures). How can I access my pictures that are on my external hard drive?

Thank you for your advice. I followed your directions, but came up with the same results. However, I did discover that whenever I open up the iPhoto Library that is already existing on my MacBook a certain set of pictures shows up. But then when I open up the iPhoto Library from the Hard drive another set of pictures shows up. BUT not ALL of my pictures are showing up on the iPhoto Library from the hard drive. At least the last two years of pictures are not showing up?! Actually, it appears that all the pictures are there from when I started using iPhoto about 5 years ago up until around the time that I got my iMac desktop computer and started using that (2 years ago). I have noticed that more recent videos I have made are showing up in a folder on the hard drive, but will not appear when I open up iMovie?! Any ideas on how to access my pictures from the last 2 years off of the hard drive???

How do i save a picture to the camera roll from a text message in ios 7

I am attempting to save a picture from a text message to my camera roll. However when i hold the picture the options are "copy/More" More gives the options to delete or forward via text message. And if i press copy it only copies it to be pasted. In the past i was given several options to send the pic via email/text/save to camera roll/drop box etc.
Please advise as to how i can save pictures from my text to the camera roll.
Thank you!

If you receive a picture via email or text message in ios 7 and when you press the action icon to save the picture and you do not get the option to save to your camera roll. Press and hold on the the image and you will get an overlay pop up to save the image. I have no idea why some attachments don't have option in action menu to save in the camera roll but by experimentation and earned frustration I found the above to work in certain situations.
Be well and have fun and feel rewarded in your frustrations. For without challenges, life would be an utter bore.

Picture Included. Mid 2012 13 inch Macbook Pro green/purple lines on screen. Freezes. Sometimes 3 beeps.

Alright I have a Mid 2012 13 inch Macbook Pro purchased in June 2012. For about the last month, I have this issue where as I am using it random colored lines will show up on the screen (lines usually green, purple, but occasionally the issue occurs while booting and lines are black on white background). As soon as the lines appear, everything freezes. Sometimes the computer automatically reboots. Other times, it will just turn off and start beeping 3 times in a row. AT first, I thought this may be a video card error because it happened a lot when I was watching videos. However, it also happens randomly when I am just using safari/chrome with no other programs runnings. The most annoying part of this issue is that it is completely random. Computer won't act up for maybe 2 days straight during all activities (videos, surfing the web, etc). Then I will have a day where the problem is consistent.
Also, although I think this is just a correlation, all problems started after upgrading to Yosemite.
Picture below:
Does anyone else with a Macbook Pro (especially 2012) have this issue? These two discussions seem to be describing this very situation:
Screen froze, purple lines, three beeps. Help!
Macbook Pro screen glitches, 3 beeps, NOT THE RAM

thanks alex. I'm going to the genius bar later this week for them to get a look at the issue.
in the meantime, do you have any idea why the problem occurs when I apply a little pressure to the bottom of the computer (under the command screen). here is a video of the situation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=88C34bHZAd8&feature=youtu.be
also, i found this thread describing my exact situation: Field of vertical lines all over Macbook Pro screen? (+ freezes, beeps)
do you have any idea of a solution from reading that?

Problem with storing pictures to the Media Card

I set my 8330 to store pictures to the media card. It works for a while and then the device reverts to storing it on the device memory. It does this without asking or telling me that it's done so. It's very frustrating. Anybody have any idea why it would do this?

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
That's a very odd situation. Can you tell us, when this happens, does your BB "see" the media card at all? For instance, if when you notice this, can you do Media > Explore and get to the media card still?
Another thing to check is your device OS version -- perhaps there is an update from your carrier that has fixes that would be useful...you can check your carrier via this portal:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
If your device OS is current, then you might want to try a different media card...perhaps there is something amiss with the one you have.
Also, how to do you go about recovering and getting it to again store on the media card?
Thanks!

Old computer died, I am trying to restore my pictures from a Windows Backup

My old computer overheated to the point that the D: drive, where I kept my data, virtually melted. Fortunately, I am religious about backups, so I had a local computer shop install a new D: drive and restored most of my data from a backup on an external hard drive. Unfortunately, that drive also failed - the local computer shop was able to get some data off of it, but none of my pictures. I had a fairly recent backup that did include all my picture files (created with Windows Backup and Restore).
I was able to find the Catalog folder and restored it to the default location (C:/Program Data/Adobe/Elements Organizer/Catalogs). The Organizer does find that catalog. It contains 2 folders (BreezeData, which contains 422 files in the format breeze-1.xml and a file named BreezeSession.dat) and (syncdb, which contains only a file named .pref). It also contains the following files: backupCt.dat, catalog.pse9db, collstatus.dat, face.thumb.9.cache, itemData.mk4, tagstatus.dat, and thumb.5.cache. However, none of my tags appear in the Organizer. I have tried repairing the catalog, got the message that there was nothing to repair, and clicked on "repair it anyway", which didn't improve the situation.
Is there another file I need to find and restore to make this work properly?
I have restored some of my actual picture files to the same location and file structure they were in on the old computer. However, PSE 9 can't find them. I have tried "reconnecting" files, and get the message that there are no files to reconnect. If I "import" the files to the Organizer, I lose all of my version sets (and I have a lot of them). I realize I can stack the original and edited versions of the same picture, but the Editor does not recognize them as versions. In addition, I lose all my tags.
Is there any way to get the pictures back into the Organizer without losing the version sets and tags? The Organizer does find the captions i have assigned.
I have already purchased PSE 12, but I thought I would have greater success if I got PSE 9 properly restored, then did the upgrade.
Any help would be appreciated.

This isn't really a reply, just an update.
I was finally able to fix the problem! I uninstalled PSE 9 (I should have used Revo Uninstaller, but I forgot to do that, I just used the Control Panel, Programs & Features, Uninstall a Program.) I then went into the ProgramData directory and removed everything that appeared to relate to Adobe PSE, including the Catalog folder (there was a lot of it). I restarted the computer and re-installed PSE 9 (I had already recovered all the picture files using Backup and Restore). This time, when I did Reconnect, All Missing Files, the program itself found almost everything! I still had a little bit of cleanup to do (mostly duplicates), and I have to re-transfer all of the pictures I have taken with both of my cameras since the backup just before this disaster occurred, but at least I have (I think) recovered the majority of 7 years of photographs. I noticed while I was doing the cleanup that not every filename (I just leave the IMG_#### assigned by the camera) was there, but I am assuming the missing filename numbers are photos that I either deleted or moved to a folder I call "Trash" for photos that are going to take a lot more time to fix than I have immediately - if they can be fixed at all.
The recovered photos retain the version sets and tags that were originally assigned!
Having been through this, I would encourage everyone to backup their files regularly, and don't forget the directory where the catalog file is stored! If the catalog file is lost, you are toast!
If anyone has a similar problem, feel free to let me know and I will try to help with a more detailed explanation.
For what it's worth, Adobe was of no help (fortunately we got disconnected before I gave them my credit card number for the $39.99 they wanted to even talk to me about the problem). Similarly, I have successfully used JustAnswer.com for other complicated problems where HP (the destroyed computer) or Dell (my new computer) couldn't help, but they were unable to help with this problem.
I think I have a little more work to do, including loading my recent pictures, but I plan to start on converting the recovered files to PSE 12 soon.

Bug report for picture attachment - mail for exch...

Mail for exchange is a great email software ,I denpend on it very much .
Recently , I found there was a big problem in some situation :
When a mail content was pasted a lot of pictures(not attached with files),It was opened very slowly,I alomst could't bear it.
I gusee the program spent too much time to analyzed the mail content and extract the pictures content as some attachments.
I think the program team should find the better methods to improve the efficency of the content analysis observably.
looking forward the reply,thankds.

It seems half of this has been answered with Leopard. If you try to use cmd-w to close the spell check window, it will still close the piece of mail you're composing. Shift-cmd-; will toggle the window. That's good enough for now

Sorting order of pictures from Aperture in an iPod slideshow

I've recently got a video iPod and have transferred all my photos to it from Aperture. I found that it was necessary to create an album for every project in my Aperture library in order for the projects to show up on the iPod.
Having got all my projects (as albums) listed on the iPod, I want to be able to view them as slideshows. However, there's been a 'scattering effect' in the sorting of all the pictures in each album: overall, they're broadly in the correct order, but many pictures have been scattered out of the order they're supposed to be in.
For example, in one particular album, which is of a two-day shoot, the pictures are broadly chronological on the iPod but many pictures are out of sequence. Sometimes they're displaced just a few positions from where they should be. Sometimes they're on completely the wrong day (e.g. a handful of day 1 shots are intermingled with the day 2 pictures). It's easy to see that the ordering is wrong by looking at the 5x5 album preview on the iPod, and of course the slideshow reflects that order.
My photos are all dated correctly (in terms of Mac datestamp and EXIF image data), and they're named sequentially (in the form "### image name.jpg", where ### is a three-digit number starting from 001). In Aperture, the pictures are set to be ordered by filename, and they do appear in the right order there, but once they've made it across to the iPod they're out of sequence. I can't see any reason for the new iPod ordering: it seems entirely arbitrary, yet it's the same after every synch, and it doesn't correspond to any setting I can make in Aperture as far as I can see.
My iPod's date setting is correct and the 'shuffle slideshow' option is turned off. (Though I don't think that either fact is relevant - especially not 'shuffle', as the pictures are clearly in the wrong order in the album previews and the slideshow just reflects that ordering.)
I want and need my pictures to be in their correct numerical/chronological sequence. If they're in the wrong order, the slideshow facility is completely useless. I've seen similar questions asked by other users on this forum, but none has yet received a satisfactory answer.
Someone, please put me out of my misery and tell me how to make this work as it should!

Thanks a lot for the answer. But what an absolute pain in the nether regions! The situation as it stands is totally unacceptable, and I really didn't want to have to mess about with iPhoto any more. I bought Aperture to replace iPhoto, not to act as a back-end to it.
I sincerely hope that Apple will address this issue, and soon. The combination of Aperture and iPod is frankly not fit for purpose. And when you consider that the 'free' software equivalent (iPhoto plus iPod) is just fine, you start to feel a little ripped off.
By the way, David, it's a small world! You know that church just across the road from David Brown? My father's been organist there for about 40 years. And my uncle worked in David Brown's in Meltham (though it's been demolished for years, now). I live only about a mile away from where you used to work.
