Anyone know of a imaging program like Picture-It for the iMac?

Picture-It from Kodak was an imaging program that allowed you to add borders, titles, special effects, and create collages (from scratch as well as templets) as well as calendars, postcards, greeting cards, etc. Somewhat simplistic (it walked you through creation of stuff with questions and answers you selected) it was reasonably effective and was free. Anyone know of anything similar for little money?
Thanks!

Dale:
Another application to consider, especially if you think you might want to do more advanced editing at some time is Photoshop Elements for Mac. It runs about $90. Amazon.com often has a special on it bringing it down a little under $80. Canon also bundles it with many of its scanners if you're in the market for a scanner.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Does anyone know where I can get a replacement keyboard for my imac G5 power PC purchased in December 2005

    Does anyone know where in the UK or Ireland I can get a replacement keyboard for my imac G5 power PC purchased in December 2005. Running Mac OSX 10.4.1.1?

    Not sure where in Ireland to look, but be aware that SOME Apple Aluminum boards will work with 10.4.11. The first Al boards and those through the first few months of 2011 were compatible with any Mac running OS 10.4.11 and having USB ports. Then they changed them to require 10.6.8 for full function.
    The ones compatible with 10.4.11 (MB110LL/A) have the icon for Dashboard on the F4 key; the later ones (MB110LL/B) have an icon consisting of six tiny rectangles grouped to form a larger rectangle. The keyboard boxes are nearly identical except for:
    the system requirements printed on the front panel
    the back panel on the first model reads "Keyboard" where the newer model reads "Keyboard with Numeric Keypad."
    When looking for older parts, always consider a Mac User Group:

    I would like to know where I can find a user's guide for beginners, one that I can read and maybe understand the terminology - I am not a tech person and I find I am lost trying to use my iphone 4s.  An explanation of the apps and settings would be a BIG HELP - something like a dictionary, defining the terms and terminology.....

  • Anyone know if there will be a Garageband app for the ipad?

    I'd buy one today if I could use it with Garageband. The flexibility of being able to take it anywhere and record/edit tracks, considering it's size and the excellent screen, would make it worth the money to me.
    Just wondering if anyone has seen/heard anything about such an app. There would have to be a way to use the USB port as an input, but other than that, you could save the files the your mac but be able to move it around so easily...would be great.

    Apple has not announced GarageBand for the iPad nor anything similar but that doesn't mean that they won't release something in the future. Meanwhile, there are companies like Sonoma WireWorks and Krasidy that are already producing multitrack recording apps for the iPad or iPhone. Sonoma has a version specifically for the iPad, so that might be worth checking out.
    I haven't seen anything that uses the Dock connector to expand the input capabilities, but there may be something out there, or the new SDK may allow such a thing in the future.
    Regards.

  • Does anyone know where you can get a rubber pad for the bottom of the Macbook Pro 13"?

    My Macbook Pro 13" tends to get a bit warm while sitting on my lap at times. I really don't want to put a case on it, but I wondered if anyone sells a rubber pad that might cover the bottom of the laptop? I would think this would help with the heat and also provide better gripping when you set it down on a surface. Nothing fancy, just a rubber pad that would stick on.
    Never hurts to ask
    Thanks
    --Aric

    The metal body is a key part of the heat dissipation.
    And the MBP is a "notebook", not a "laptop".  Air flows around the body to get rid of heat.
    I have used my MBP on my lap, but always balanced on both legs and left as much metal as possible exposed.  Now I understand even that was risky.
    If you want to use a hard-surface that the MBP sits on and the surface sits on your leg, then OK.  But the heat you feel is the MBP clearing itself.

  • Does anyone know if Apple is working on a fix for the duplicate photo issue in iPhoto?

  • Does anyone know any good photo booths other than photobooth for the mac??

    please help me. Im looking for new effects for photos it take.
    thanks alot!

    Hello JimmyStone
    Photo Booth "effects" are commands that are built into OS X core functions, so all the effects available for Photo Booth are already in the app.
    For some other ideas, look in http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1135958

  • Does anyone know of a work around or a fix for the "Mail.app of death"?

    Google it if you haven't heard about it before.
    I've tried the proof-of-concept code that's circulating the web and it works as announced in a very disturbing way. (Mail.app crashes, over and over again.)
    //Niklas

    I noticed a typo in my question, it should be "Mail.app mail of death".
    Since no one seem to be interested in this very serious vulnerability, here's a link to the proof-of-concept located at SecurityFocus.

    Does anyone know why video image in events section has a certain dimension and instead when I import same video in a clip, the size of video image is minor? Thanks for help

    This may depend on your chosen encoding options for the Mails (MIME vs. Base64 or similar) and/or the mails being reduced in size and sliced up server side. Apple (and Google) do stuff like recompressing images when viewing mails on mobile devices from an Apple ID or Gmail account... You have to turn it off in their web frontends....

  • Does anyone know why when printing from light room to pdf the program just closes on me? I've talked to tech support and they are going to get back to me tomorrow but I am desperate I have tuns of homework to finish !!

    Does anyone know why when printing from light room to pdf the program just closes on me? I've talked to tech support and they are going to get back to me tomorrow but I am desperate I have tuns of homework to finish !!

    No, but if you really mean that the way you said it, I don't know that Print is the best way to this. If you haven't already, after selecting the images you want to get printed, try clicking the Export button in Book or Library module and then selecting format .PDF. Once you export the file to .PDF, try opening it where you saved it and printing from there, not in Lightroom but in Adobe Reader. If that doesn't help, here are a couple of videos that might--follow their instructions carefully with no shortcuts:
    Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4's Export to PDF Using the New Book Module - YouTube
    Lightroom 5 - Exporting Images | Getting Started with Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 | Adobe TV
    If Lightroom keeps closing even when you try all this, you may need to reinstall Lightroom because your copy may be screwed up.

  • Does anyone know of a software program that speeds up encoding without any

    does anyone know of a software program that speeds up encoding within iDVD without any loss of quality?

    No. Rendering is the process of compressing your video to a MPEG2 format required by the DVD specification. This process takes time. Hollywood Studios will use render farms to render just a few frames. In terms of iDVD, the only thing that can decrease your rendering time is by getting a faster processor. After that, you could use DVDSP and multiple computers to create your own networked rendering or purchase specific hardware for the MacPro for MPEG encoding. And these rendering cards start at $2,000 last I looked.

  • Anyone know of a way to backup SMS messages for FREE on a Mac?

    Anyone know of a good program to extract SMS messages from the iphone, or the backup file located in /Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup on a mac? Something that is able to put it into a .txt file or anything that is legible?
    And most importantly, that is firmware 3.0 friendly, works on an iphone 3GS (obviously but just incase) and is free? I saw some online but you have to pay for them and some aren't even iPhone OS 3.0 compatible. Only 2.0
    Or does anyone know of a way to do this yourself by navigating the files in the backup folder?
    Lastly... anyone know of a way to put old SMS's back on an iPhone if you decide to do a new restore instead of one from a backup? Many thanks!

    Thanks neuroanatomist. That was really helpful, but when I went in and looked in my SMS folder, I opened it under notepad and it was all garbled and hard to read. It didn't look like in my iphone of indicating conversations between me and another person. I could see my conversations, but they where all mixed in with numbers and weird characters I've never seen before. You wouldn't happen to know of another program out there that can put it perhaps like in a word doc. or even excel sheet? Something that's just organized. Thanks.
    Anyone else care to help me out with some mac community friendly advice? Thanks!
