Adobe is asking users about Bridge (important)
For me Bridge is essential for my workflow.
Let's say it to Adobe.
Take a short survey:
https://adobeformscentral.com/?f=ra6Sxz%2AkkPH1XafC0uER7w
What exact version of Bridge (i.e. NOT just CS5, CS6, etc.) ?
It looks like you are on OS X? What exact version?

What is equiv to Adobe Bridge Import in iPhoto
I have migrated all my photos (over 20,000) from PC to Mac and have taken the plunge. I used to use Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0 in Windows and used the Organizer to import my media cards. When I did that, it would layout the pictures in a directory called "2009 05 30" for the photos taken today, for example. I would then tag then in Adobe for later searches. I would also use Picasa for a simple method of access and organization.
In addition, I would make a DVD disk of all the images for a time period and store that offsite. That disk contains the originals of my photos - I would manually fill up the DVD and write the time range and photo number range on each one.
So, now my questions.
1. How can I import photos to a similar directory structure instead of into the central iPhoto library?
2. If I cannot import like that, how can I easily burn a DVD of all images imported since a certain date, or image number.
3. Or should I use the Canon EOS Utility to import the card to a directory structure, then import from disk in iPhoto.
I know the "best practice" in this forum is to let iPhoto manage the entire library, but then my library would be tens of gigabytes in size and would not be easy to backup to to a single medium. (Unless I back up to another hard drive and save that offsite).
Curious what others do. I am playing with Aperture, Lightroom and will also try Elements 6.0 for Mac and see what meets my needs.
Thank you.

1. How can I import photos to a similar directory structure instead of into the central iPhoto library?
Use Image Capture - or any other app you prefer - to move the files from your Camera card to your preferred Location. Then run a Referenced Library: Simply go to iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Advanced and uncheck 'Copy Files to the iPhoto Library on Import'.
Now iPhoto will not copy the files, but rather simply reference them on your HD. To do this it will create an alias in the Originals Folder that points to your file. It will still create a thumbnail and, if you modify the pics, a Modified version within the iPhoto Library Folder.
As you have read we strongly recommend against this method - especially for inexperienced users:
1. Import and deleting pics are more complex procedures
2. You cannot move or rename the files on your system or iPhoto will lose track of them on systems prior to 10.5 and iPhoto 08. Even with the later versions issues can still arise if you move the referenced files to new volumes or between volumes.
3. Most importantly, migrating to a new disk or computer can be much more complex.
Always allowing for personal preference, I've yet to see a good reason to run iPhoto in referenced mode unless you're using two photo organisers.
2. If I cannot import like that, how can I easily burn a DVD of all images imported since a certain date, or image number.
Easy: Select the Event/Album or files that you wish to back up: then File -> Export, Kind: Original. Export to a folder on the desktop and burn that.
Backing up to another HD is actually the best way to go. DVD's rot over time. HD's are inexpensive, dynamic and very easy to use.
My back up strategy:
My Library lives on my iMac.
It’s Backed up to two external hard disks every day. These disks are permanently attached to the iMac. These back ups run automatically. One is done by Time Machine, one is a bootable back up done by SuperDuper
It’s also backed up to a portable hard disk when ever new photos are added. This hard disk lives in my car. For security, this disk is password protected. For this job I use DejaVu because it makes a simple back up that is clear and can be tested easily without doing an full restore.
I have a second off-site back up at a relative’s house across town. That’s updated every 3 or 4 months.
My Photos are backed up online. Personally I use SmugMug but there are many options including flickr. However, check the terms of your account carefully. While most sites have free uploading, you will often find that these uploads are limited in terms of the file size, or the bandwidth you can use per month. For access that allows you to upload full size pics with no restrictions you will need to pay.
Every couple of months I test the back ups to make sure they are working correctly. It’s very easy to mis-configure a back up application, and the only way to protect against that is to do a restore.
Aperture and Lightroom are much more powerful apps that iPhoto - and a touch more expensive too . Elements has no organising capability on the Mac. For that it comes with Bridge. Some people like Bridge. Never met one, but some do.

Downloaded the Bridge CS5 4.0.3 updates from Macupdate and Adobe Download Update site, and have installed it. The installation process went fine, and Adobe CS5 4.0.3.9 as shown in the About dialog, run fine.
However, when I hit "Updates" from Bridge CS5 Menu, the Adobe Auto Updater started and prompted me to upgrade to Adobe Bridge CS5 4.0.2.
Version 4.0.2 is the prior version on my Mac before applying the new upgrade to 4.0.3.
If I hit Update, Adobe Auto Updater will download Bridge CS5 4.0.2 and install fail.
I think 4.0.3 update is not yet integrated into Adobe Auto Updater.
Please fix this! Or I'm the only one who have this problem?FranNStein wrote:

You need to understand that Adobe is a huge, inefficient and unresponsive bureaucracy.
Not only are the engineering teams for the various applications in the creative suite in different cities but in different states. The installer and updater teams are also separate entities.
Even Adobe program managers have lamented publicly that the installers and updaters are a huge embarrassment to them. Privately, some of them regret that they can't say publicly what they would like to do to members of the installer and updater teams.
The false-positives have been showing up intermittently for many years. At other times, the updater fails to inform you of available updates, or the installation through the updater will fail or be incomplete.
As I said earlier, I just ignore the auto updaters and perform all my downloads and installs manually—for all my Adobe applications. I've been doing this for at least six years, possibly even longer, and I've never had a problem this way.

I have connected 7th generation nano. Computer recognizes. itunes does not. I have used all the troubleshooting tips except for the third party security checks, which totally scare me. My computer has just been wiped, professionally. In using the diagnostic checks, it says itunes doesnt recognize the ipod. Can anyone help? Am in the same boat with my ipod shuffle. Computer and itunes do not recognize either. I am frustrated beyond belief. Have spent 3 days rebooting, restarting and troubleshooting. HELP

I have had an IPOD classic 160 for two years now and there has never been a software upgrade?
Why can't the softwrae be updated to allow onboard editing, promotion demotion in a list, erasing and renaming of music files?
Why does it have to be undertaken on a PC?
Come on guys, do something for us old lags with classics please.

issue with my iphone 4s bluetooth. I'm unable to pair my phone with my Motorola S9 Headset. i have paired these two devices in the past and the pairing still works between my headset and my iphone 4.(i do unpair these 2 when trying to pair my 4s and said headset) I have done all the standard rebooting/ turning on& off of the phone and headset that you could imagine without result. this is what it looks like, I will turn on the headset, my phone will discover it, I will tap the icon that relates to the Motorola S9, and after a few seconds a message pops up informing me that the headset should be turned on and that I may need to enter a pairing code. ( there is no option for entering said code that I can find) Also, the same time the bluetooth stopped working for my headset, it also stopped working for my vehicle. to me, this is a phone issue not a device issue. oh, last thing, this all started after powering down my phone a number of times during air travel. any assistance would be appreciated...

Hi.
I have just bought a ipad mini. I also have a ipad 2. I am unable to connect to my server by wifi with my new mini. When I type in my password it says unable to connect to server.
I have just visited a friend locally and he selected his server from the WiFi list, typed in his password and managed to connect OK. Does anyone know what the problem could be ?

icalentor and ilife keep asking me about the keychain password ,wich i don't event know about (login password dosn't work), if any one knows about this ,and how to avoid from that ? thank you ! please help ,.i am a new mac user .
See if this helps...
Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Keychain Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over.
Keychain Access asks for keychain "login" after changing login password...

Resetting your keychain in Mac OS X...
If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.

Had to change Apple ID due to email address no longer valid. Trying to change id for icloud...saw direction online about signing out of icloud and signing back in...when it ask questions about contacts, photos, etc. being deleted how do I answer those? That just sort of freaks me out.
For the ones that give you an option, select the option you want (keep on the Mac or Delete). For the ones that are simply warning you, click on Delete from Mac.
They will all come back when you sign back on, since all you did was change your existing Apple ID to a new email address. It's the same iCloud account, just with a different name.
It's the only way to get your updated ID signed onto iCloud.

2 questions about bridge cs6 is always the rotate lossless? and high quality on demand
Hi
about bridge cs6 the rotate buttons rotate 90° counter and 90°clockwise is lossless ? i mean without loss of quality ?
and my i know the meaning of high quality on demand? might someone make an example?
thanks a lotThat's why I have never bothered to conduct such a test. A complete waste of time, in my opinion.
I would not put it that way because it always interesting to what extend users like to go or come up with for testing
But in basic, yes you are right. If you need such extreme test to proof the theory wrong the practice still is a winner. If you can't see it with your own eyes it is not really important but to fill an academic paper. In real life neither you, nor the customer or viewer would notice any difference
According to the discussion about jpeg vs Raw, of course Raw has a ton of benefits above jpeg. Personally I almost never shoot jpeg but I do know people that do to satisfaction.
Suppose you are a sports photographer and need both speed in writing to the card as in post process etc. You are working under know and solid light conditions and have measured your wight balance and set it manual. This provides very good qualities (that is if you have set the jpeg quality to high or max in camera) and shot with a recent good dSLR it produces files that can be published without problems on a magazine spread.
I can't see disadvantage for such situations. However, you have to be aware that for future use your options are still limited when deciding to change post processing. Color temperature, exposure etc etc are far more flexible with Raw then jpeg.
The vast majority of my clients want jpeg and that is what I convert to when files are ready. Yet I keep my original DNG and PSD file.
Especially the archived Raw (in my case since 2008 converted DNG from CR2 files) is important. I can't tell you how surprise I am every time I open a raw file from 10 years ago in todays Raw converters. They have been improved very much and are able to get more out of your old files then you ever could imagine.
And to finish with an other plus side of Raw. If you need to enlarge old and new raw files to huge billboards you will discover that the results of the Raw are far more superior -
How many users can I import at one time?
Is there a limit on how many users I can import at one time?
Also, how about other record types (Lead, Opportunity, Contacts ...etc.) Is there a limit on these also?
Where in the documentation that I can find info for this please?
I'm using CRMOD Release 18

Upload file without asking user for the file
Hi,
I need to upload a file to server, but from my code, not using the file upload from page.
I have created a xml file and I need to upload to server when user open a web browser (without asking user to select a file).
How do I proceed??, or what kind of libraries do I must use?

Hi,
thanks for answer.
Let me try to explain again (I think its very simple).Simple, yes. But not very thorough.
I have developed a web application using JSF.So all the code is running on the server, right? There are no Applets, Applications or WebStart applications involved. Right?
My application has a splash screen where I show data. I have developed a bean to connect to my database (sql server), extract this data and create an xml (using DOM) file like:
<news>
<simplenews id="1"> Value </simplenews>
</news>And that bean runs ... where? Server again?
(important step) Once I have created the xml file in my bean I want to upload to the server to a place like /WEB-INF/news.
If the code is running on the server, then "uploading" is the wrong term, as there's nowhere to upload to, since you're already on the server.
This may sound like nit-picking, but you're sending us on a wrong trail with this phrase.
Once the file is on the server with another bean I read the xml fileWhy don't you simply store it in the application scope and let everyone access it from there? It doesn't sound as if the XML is huge.
As you can see I haven't a web page where to show an upload file componetYou also don't want to "upload" anything from the client, from the sound of it.
You simply want to transfer data between to server-side components, if I understood you correctly.
