An out-landish use for Pages and iMovie ??
Now this is just an idea and I thought I'd put it here to kick around a bit.
If I were to create a single page document in Pages with just images (photos maybe even some digital sketches) and position them in a relatively artistic fashion so that it's not just a page with a stack of pics on it, would it be possible to then save that Pages document as something which I could then drop into iMovie like I do with any of my other photos and pics? Or perhaps use it in Keynote which I could then convert to a QT file?
Or am I just thinking too out there?
Hello Wytche,
if you only want to have an image to use in other apps, there is a very easy way:
1) Press the shortcut "cmdalt+shift4" to start the mouse-area-selection-screenshot.
2) Hold the mouse button down where the left top corner of the image should be and drag the mouse to the right bottom corner you want to have for the image.
3) Start Preview and press the shortcut "cmd+N" or choose the menu item "File/New From Clipboard".
Now you have the image in Preview to save it as whatever file type you need. Of course you can use the shortcut "cmdshift4" to have an image saved directly to the Finder. Have a look in "System Preferences/Keyboard & Mouse" and there under the tab button "Keyboard-Shortcuts" to assign own shortcuts.
Frank.

How to find out what are the interfaces used for Job and Job Codes
HI All,
I just wanted to know how do we find out what are the interfaces used for Job and Job codes .
Thanks In Advance
SunnyHi,
Here is an idea for your request.
Basically you can create a simple query on multiprovider 0TCT_MC01.
Filter: you can use a variable for restriction of time ( calday, or calmonth) since you should be interested for a time period.
Choose following characters into your objects:
InfoProvider ( 0TCTIFPROV ) - you can create a variable for choosing infoprovider before query runs.
*Tp.[Type of BI Application Object] 0TCTBISOTYP = filter this with 'QUERY' or whatever your need is.
*BI Application Object 0TCTBISBOBJ, ( this will give you the name of the queries)
In key figures choose, Count for BI Appl. (0TCTWTCOUNT).
(number for query run)
Create a condition , for top 20.
Hope this helps.

I'm traveling out of USA for 2mos, and t have a 4s that I'm taking with can use it there or what should I do from this end
If your phone is carrier locked, contact your carrier about International provisioning, if you want to use your phone functions out of the country. You would pick a plan/carrier where you plan on traveling & pay your US carrier. Not cheap, but your phone would work as a phone. If your phone is officially unlocked, you can use local sims when you get where you are going. Phone functions work & this is the cheapest option if you want to use your phone, as a phone. Otherwise, put your phone in Airplane mode. This turns off all iPhone radios, but you can go back into settings & turn both WiFi & Bluetooth back on. While your phone won't work as a phone, you can still have Internet access when connected to WiFi.

Different apple id shows for updates on mac for iPhoto and iMovie
Hi, on my Mac there are two updates available for iPhoto and iMovie however the update requires me to use my old apple ID which I no longer use. I have checked iTunes, iCloud and the App store and my current apple ID is used for all of them. I don't understand why my old apple ID keeps showing up, I can't sign out of it because it doesn't give me that option.
I'm really confused, please help me out!!!Those applications have the old Apple ID stored inside them. It can't be changed without deleting them and then redownloading them from the desired Apple ID; in the case of preloaded applications, you may also need to contact Apple. This can be done by going to the Mac App Store main page and clicking on Support under Quick Links.

I cannot download certain games because I do not recall the answers to my security questions when it asks if I am 17 years or older. In fact, I do not even recall being asked these security questions.
I tried to guess logical answers but now my iPad is threatening to lock me out. My second email is no longer in use as it has not been used for years and has seemingly expired.
Can you please help?If you don't have access to your rescue email account, or you don't have one on your account (an alternate/secondary email address is a different setting/address), then you will need contact iTunes Support or Apple to get the questions reset (you won't be able to change/add a rescue email address until you can answer 2 of your questions)
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to update/add a rescue email address for potential future use -
Setting up storage for iPhoto and iMovie on rMBP
Hi,
I just purchased a rMPB 15" with a 256 SSD drive and 8gig RAM. While I have several iOS devices (phone, ipad, ATV) this is my first MAC OS device.
I purcahsed it mainly to organize my photos and video.
I probably have thousdands of photos, and hundreds of hours of video (on MiniDV) that I want to import, edit, organzie, etc. I know that the intenal harddrive will not be enough to support all this. I want to set this up right the first time, so I dont have any issues.
My first thought was NAS, but after doing some research it appears that might not be the best course of action since it looks like iPhoto and iMovie dont suppport NAS.
Then I thoguht external USB hard drive, but what happens when I dont have the hard drive connected? I dont want to have to keep a hard drived tethered to my laptop at all times.
Ok, then I thought just use harddrive to backup via time machine. But what happens when internal drive gets full?
Do i load all my photos directly onto a harddrive and then have iPhoto just point to it, thus not ever having them on internal drives?
Its these type of questions I have.
My ultimate hope is some sort of NAS setup, so my non Apple devices (windows, DLNA, etc) coudl access the ptotos and videos as well.
Thanks for the advise
Ron1. Can iPhoto support multiple libraries on its own (or do I need that additional software referenced above)
It can do multiple libraries on its own. However, that just allows you to create and open Libraries, you can't move images between them and so on. If you are using multiple Libraries check out iPhoto Library Manager
If I take all my photos, and organize them with iPhoto (using an external drive for example), they way I understand how iPhoto works is it takes all the photo in, and then organizes them into its own system.
You need to make a small distinction here: iPhoto stores the files, you organise the Pictures as you want.
It's a key distinction.The file is just a container - a box - for your Photograph. Think of it this way: In my iTunes Library I have a file called 'Let_it_Be_The_Beatles.mp3'. So what is that, exactly? It's not the song. The Beatles never wrote an mp3. They wrote a tune and lyrics. They recorded it and a copy of that recording is stored in the mp3 file. So the file is just a container for the recording. That container is designed in a specific way attuned to the characteristics and requirements of the data. Hence, mp3.
Similarly, that Jpeg is not your photo, it's a container designed to hold that kind of data. iPhoto is all about the data and not about the container. So, regardless of where you choose to store the file, iPhoto will manage the photo, edit the photo, add metadata to the Photo but never touch the file. If you choose to export - unless you specifically choose to export the original - iPhoto will export the Photo into a new container - a new file containing the photo.
Once I take the time to tag them, identify, group ect. All that meta data is only relevant in Iphoto correct?
No, it's relevant to the Photograph and (almost) all of it can be used for searching and can be exported with it.
So, if you use a media browser you can search on any text: Title, Caption, keywords etc. (There is a single exception: there is no way to share Faces information as there is no agreed convention for this kind of metadata.) Any thing else you add in iPhoto can be written to the file on export.
For help accessing your photos in iPhoto see this user tip:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4491
Depends on the export setting you choose, but potentially, everything except Faces.
This User Tip
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
has details of the options in the Export dialogue.
Are they still organized by date?
Organised where?
When exporting photo's out of iPhoto, do they retain any file structure.
Do you mean filing structure? Depends on what you choose in the export dialogue. -
Can you change the units used for size and position in layout editor?
Hello,
In Aperture 3.4, does anyone know if you can change the units used for size and position in layout editor? The page is set in inches, but the image size and position are given in centimetres and I would prefer to work all in inches to create custom layouts. I can't see any way to change this. If anyone knows how it would be much appreciated. Thanks!Aperture uses the unit settings defined in the System Preferences. Set the "Measurement Units" in the "Region" tab of the "Language & Text" preferences to "US"; the Aperture will display the Size & Position in inches, if it is the "Book" layout manager you are asking about.
Merry Christmas!

I accidentally set up two accounts. One account with my old e-mail address which I've been using for years and has all of my purchases on it. Now I have a new account with my current e-mail address. How do I disable this new account? I need to disable the new e-mail address account so that I can add it as an additional e-mail to my old account. THEN, how do I make this new e-mail address my primary e-mail for this old account?
Did yoo go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and sign out and sign back in?

What's the best logic reverb to use for trumpets and sax
what's the best logic reverb to use for trumpets and sax.
The lower transmit frequency limit is in there to make the device meet FCC regulations.. that is a regulation imposed of US regions and, to a lesser extent, Latin american regions that border with the US.
In addition, you'll be pleased to know that the N900 will not use certain European WiFi channels if a) the sim card is removed or b) the phone has a sim card but is OUT of 3G coverage.. again, to make the device meet FCC regulations.. (seriously.. when you go out of 3G coverage, the kernel reports it is switching from EU wifi to US wifi!!)
Let me put this into perspective..
From: http://www.nokia.com/results/Nokia_results2009Q3e.pdf
Nokia sold 3.1million handsets in the US 2009 Q3
Nokia sold 27.1million handsets in Europe during the same period.. That is 9 times as many.
The USA has its OWN firmware
and yet ALL versions of the firmware (including the UK specific one) are crippled to meet the requirements of a region that produces the lowest sales figures by a factor of 3 (Latin America produced 9.7 million units in 2009Q3)
Why the HELL are we suffering because of US restrictions..
That's like saying you can't use bluetooth because it isn't allowed on the Christmas islands.. (it is allowed.. not picking on you, Christmas Islands, but you are small!)
If the FCC wants a phone that doesn't allow broadcasts on sub 88Mhz frequences, and doesn't want certain Wifi channels to be used, the ALTER THE US FIRMWARE..
What next, BMWs have with left hand steering in the UK because the US drives on the Left?
Phillips TVs that only work on 120V because the US uses 120V..
I don't give a **** what the FCC say.. I'm not in the US and I have my own european and UK legislation to adhere to..
For a company that INSISTS on having a billion regional firmware versions, they don't appear to be able to get that right either!!! The UK version lacks UK specific restrictions such as the ability to us UK frequencies for wifi and FM transmission!!

I've already paid for iPhoto but i got a new hard drive put in my computer so do i have to pay for iPhoto and iMovie again?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Of course not. You already purchased iPhoto and iMovie, so you can reinstall them for free.
If you purchased them from the Mac App Store or you got your Mac after July 2011, open the Mac App Store, log in with your Apple ID, go to Purchases and redownload them. Note that the latest iPhoto and iMovie need OS X Mavericks.
If you purchased them in a DVD, insert the DVD and install them. Then, open > Software Update, and install the latest version.
If you got your Mac before July 2011, use the Applications Install Disc to install iPhoto and iMovie. -
Is there a way to consolidate two different Apple ID's into one. I have an old Apple ID that I used for Itunes and a new one I used to set up on my iphone.
You cannot merge accounts.

When I sync my iphone 4S using iTunes it only syncs 8.5GB of music, not the entore library as specified. Is there a capcity default limit of the amount of storage that can be used for music and if so how do I change it?
The only limit is that of the device. No restrictions on how much of it you can use for music. Is part of your music library unchecked?

We are having old home movies put on DVD's. How do we import them to MacBook pro using Snow Leopard and iMovie 8.0.6? Can watch the movies on the laptop, but they will not import.
We took 3 video cassette 8mm that were recorded in the early 90's to a place that burned the videos onto 3 DVDs. When inserted to our Mac, the DVD player comes on to play the DVD. Opened Quicktime, but can find no way to import. Went to File>Open File>Sony_DVD_Recorder_Volume. Clicked on Sony_DVD-Recorder_Volume and it shows a file named VIDEO_TS. Clicked on that and 6 files showed VIDEO_TS.BUP, VTS_01-0.BUP, VTS_01_0.IFO, VTS-01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VOB, VTS_01_3.VOB. Where is DVDxDV?

Duplicate Finder Items, but leave out a folder
Okay, this is probably way over Automator's head, but I figure I'd give it a shot. I have a folder (Let's say it's called FolderA). Inside FolderA is a bunch of other folders, (for simplicity let's say it's A1, A2 and A3) and those three folders have
