Aliases and Images

Hi. I have no idea how, but when I moved some files into a folder I created to clean up the desktop, they all became classified as aliases. This prevented me from opening them. I don't know what an alias is in this situation, but it ***** to not be able to access these files. The characteristic is that they have a small, curving black arrow in the bottom left corner of the file's icon. The most frustrating thing is that I SOMEHOW took all the pictures I had out of iPhoto, and while i can locate most of them in various places on the hard drive, I can only put about 1/4 of them back into iPhoto. I can view most of the rest, but they just won't go into the program. A window pops up saying that the file is the wrong file type (even though they are all JPGs or jpgs). I am confused. Please help!

If you accidentally held down the option and command key while moving them, you would have created aliases in the new folder instead of actually moving them into the new folder. If that's the case, though, the originals should be right where you left them. Hopefully you didn't accidentally delete the originals! First thing to do is option-click each of the alias files and select "show original".

  • I created a CD for a friend (with photos).  She got a blank CD with a message that it had only aliases and couldn't (of course) locate the originals.  What did I do wrong.  I've never had a problem preparing and burning CDs before.

    I created a CD for a friend (photos).  She received a blank CD with a message, something about aliases and no originals.   When I tried again, and dragged files to the CD they appeared only as aliases.  Of course they wouldn't open on another computer.  I've never had a problem preparing CDs before and haven't a clue what went wrong???  Thank you!!

    If you drag files to the CD they appear as aliases until you burn the CD. Verify the files as images after you burn the CD

  • Wikis are missing all css and images!

    Hello,
    I enabled the wikis today, but when I visit it:
    http://tinyurl.com/34maae
    there are no images or styling.
    How can I fix this?
    Thanks,
    James

    James,
    I fear your post is slightly confusing - clicking on the tinyurl gives a group listing that appears quite normal.
    It's possible that you have achieved this by downloading and installing the images etc. by hand but this really isn't the way to go. (Alternatively you may have solved the problem in which case please ignore the rest of this post)
    The collaboration folder (which contains javascript, css and image files) is normally at
    usr/share/collaboration
    on your start up hard disc
    and if it's NOT there I would worry about your system install.
    If it IS there, a possible source of error is that the location of 'collaboration' is set as an alias in so that web pages can access it simply as 'http://www.website.com/collaboration'
    So, I advise you check that you haven't amended this in some way.
    Assuming that you have your server set up in Advanced Configuration you could do the following. If you have it as a Stardard or Workgroup config I fear I can't help you as I have no experience as to how the set the alias. Someone else should be able to advise. (Alternatively you COULD start editing the Apache files directly but I wouldn't advise it unless you feel happy doing that and any edit may well get overwritten anyway The relevant files are at etc/apache2/sites/)
    Launch Server Admin, select web from the list of services in the left hand column and select the domain name from the list at the top - you may only have one.
    Then select aliases from the horizontal list of radio buttons and see what it says for /collaboration, it should read
    Alias /collaboration /usr/share/collaboration
    Beyond that I don't know what to say.
    Good luck

  • Text and images not displaying, but some are

    I've uploaded my site, and images and text are missing. 4 pages are great, but the individual property pages are half empty (missing images, icons and text) Its a school project, so, yikes!    www.icm-mp3.net/group17/
    thank you in advance

    I should clarify, it all worked fine on my own server. Now, on the schools site, its missing photos going across horizontally, the lightbox that goes with, a text box, an image embedded with links. The remaining elements are in their places. Could this be a server issue?
    And, clever me, it is due tomorrow.

  • On YouTube, I can't play playlists there. It says I need to update my Java and it is updated already. When I go to different sites like Yahoo! the links and images are all distorted. This is the second time this has happened to me now

    Hello Firefox,
    I am having problems with my Firefox's image processor I believe. My web browser is fine but then a few minutes later I get some weird look on my page. It then just stays here and I can't fix it. When I go to Yahoo all the links and images do not look normal. I really cannot explain this and wish I could send a picture instead. When I go to the Log in page for Facebook I do not see the image of the small faces networking around the world. It's blank and the links are widely spread apart. With YouTube the page is also distorted. Nothing is arranged properly. I can watch videos. However when I go to someone's profile or a playlist videos cannot play or show up. It says I need to update my Java player and it is already updated. It still happens when I uninstall and re install back. I was only able to fix this problem by uninstalling everything related to Firefox. I do not know how to solve this any other way. I don't like it when all my information is lost such as saved passwords and bookmarks. If there is any way to solve this thanks. I don't want to uninstall this again.

  • Conditional Text and Image based on Excel column values

    Hi,
       I have an excel file which contains data that needs to be imported/merged in an InDesign document. I have converted that file into a CSV... I'm unable to figure out how to create document using Data Merge after evaluating some conditions on data ... Example InDesing document layout is like below and will be repeated for say 200 data rows...
    Heading 1
    Text 1, Text 2
    Text 3
    Image
    Heading 1, Text 1 and Text 2 even Image value will be set after checking some condition like below
    if ( column 'A' == ' ' && column 'B' == '1')
      Set 'Heading 1' == column X
    if ( column 'C' == '0' && file.exist(column C & '.jpg'))
       Set 'Image' == column C & '.jpg'
    Can someone please guide me how to create document when CSV and Images are given based on this scenario? and even if Data Merge is the right solution for this.
    -- Thanks.

    Data merge can only reproduce one layout, so you can't merge 200 rows and then change things unless you do it in separate documents and then combine them. Of course anything you can do via scripting or manually on a regular document you can also do to a merged document after the merge is complete.
    It sounds like this is a multiple-records-per-page scenario. TO do that you set up ONE instance only of what you want to merge, in the upper left position on the page. ID then duplicates EVERYTHING that is on the page as many times as will fit using the spacing parameters you provide. This means you need to be careful with frame sizes so they don't extend beyond where they should, but it also means you can add a no-fill, no-stroke frame as a border or bounding box to make it easier to get a precise size to be used by each record. Frames in merged documents are not threaded from record to record (though there are methods for doing that after the merge, if desired), so deleting a record normally leaves a hole in the page.
    If you have master page items, it's probably best to us the "none" master before the merge, then apply the correct master page after.

  • Preview and image capture don't save imported scanned image

    Hi. Both preview and image capture aquire the scanner and displays the image overview. But when proceeding
    to scan, the application simply hangs and no image is saved.
    Maybe some prefs file is corrupted. Tried removing the com.apple.Preview from ~/Library/Containers, but didn't help....
    What to do???

    Not sure if this is relevant:
    1) TWAIN-BRIDGE is installed otherwise mavericks won't talk to the scanner.
    2) recently added an HP printer (no scanner). Shouldn't conflict with the scanner driver, but then again.....

  • Preview and Image Capture Not Recognising Scanner

    Preview and Image capture have stopped recognising my networked Canon MX350 scanner.  It seemed to occur after I used PhotoScore to scan some sheet music but that could be coincidence.  I deleted the scanner driver and reinstalled it from the Canon website together with the MP Navigator software, and I am now able to scan from MP Navigator but not Image Capture or Preview.  I have run Software Update but no updates are available.

    Apple's official documentation only provides an information about printing by using this device - scanner is not listed. I would suggest to look for specific drivers on Canon's official webpage.

  • The latest Firefox version won't expand to make text and images more visible on my 32" screen, although I have tried to adjust the advanced Windows appearance settings in the same way that has worked in previous versions of Firefox.

    Normally I have had to go to Control Panel; Appearances and Themes; Display; Settings; Advanced; Custom; and then I adjust the Customize Setting to 155% (149 dpi). I have hit on this setting through trial and error; larger and icons like the cursor get big and fuzzy. Smaller than 155% and text and images are tiny on the 32" wide screen. This time that procedure doesn't seem to work. The text and images remain too small regardless of setting, although the cursor icon gets big. I can manually zoom the pages, but that is clumsy and has to be redone. Does anyone know of an easy setting fix? I am not too smart about this stuff--mostly trial and error, but I do want to be able to enjoy my wide screen. Thanks!

  • How can i copy line with text and image to ms word

    When I insert an image in textflow using InlineGraphicElement it works, but when I copy the line with the image to MS Word it copies only the text (not the image).
    How can i copy the image to MS Word?

    If you want copy formatted text and image to MS Word, you need to give MS Word rtf markup, because Word can recognize rtf markup but not TLF markup.
    So you need to create a custom clipboard to paste a rtf markup. It's a large feature for you, because you need a tlf-rtf converter in your custom clipboard.
    TLF Custom Clipboard Example:
    package
        import flash.display.Sprite;
        import flash.desktop.ClipboardFormats;
        import flashx.textLayout.container.ContainerController;
        import flashx.textLayout.conversion.ITextImporter;
        import flashx.textLayout.conversion.TextConverter;
        import flashx.textLayout.edit.EditManager;
        import flashx.textLayout.elements.*;
        import flashx.undo.UndoManager;
        // Example code to install a custom clipboard format. This one installs at the front of the list (overriding all later formats)
        // and adds a handler for plain text that strips out all consonants (everything except aeiou).
        public class CustomClipboardFormat extends Sprite
            public function CustomClipboardFormat()
                var textFlow:TextFlow = setup();
                TextConverter.addFormatAt(0, "vowelsOnly_extraList", VowelsOnlyImporter, AdditionalListExporter, "air:text" /* it's a converter for cliboard */);
            private const markup:String = '<TextFlow whiteSpaceCollapse="preserve" version="2.0.0" xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/textLayout/2008"><p><span color=\"0x00ff00\">Anything you paste will have all consonants removed.</span></p></TextFlow>';
            private function setup():TextFlow

  • How can i create a simple netweaver portal page that shows text and images?

    Hi,
    i have a simple question or maybe it's not so simple.
    I am completly new to SAP Netweaver 2004s Portal. At the moment i'm trying to understand the struture of the whole thing. I already know how to create roles, worksets and pages and i know how to combine the different elements so a user can acces them.
    And now i want to create a simple portal page that shows text and images. Is it possible to create such a simple page with the portal content studio? What iView do i have to use?
    (I just want to create a start page with a welcome text on it.)

    Marc
    Considering that you would any ways go ahead with complex development from this simple start page I recommend create a Web dynpro Iview for your start page (include the Iview in your page).
    For putting the contents use Netweaver Developer studio to build a simple start page application and put your static text on that Iview.
    Please go through the following log after your NWDS development is over - This will make you comfortable for further challenging work.

    I beleave the easiest way is to use PEResourceExplorer,
    Resource
    Hacker or similar software to modify EXE resources, such as
    window
    title and window icon.
