Aperture Good Bye... What next ?

I must admit I am worried; with over 250 000 RAW pictures (over 2 T on external hard disks) and hundreds of folders, subfolders, slide shows etc etc, does this mean I'm dead in the water ?
I started using Aperture when it first came out after I heard photographers at National Geographic say it was better than sliced bread. And I learned to love it and quickly totally gave up LR and Adobe products...

Wait till you get to try it and get to see the long list of what is missing, and how long it will take to get back to work, without assistance from Apple.
Meanwhile start working on Plan B. You got at least some warning this time. Hopefully it won't just trash your work out of the blue.
Peter
No, it's nothing like that Peter. It's actually quite the opposite. Apple seems to have learned from that fiasco and announced ahead of time exactly what the plan is. Nice try though.
In fact, your statement just shows how much more interested you are/were in starting a panic than in informing people. Apple announced the end of development and changed the name, and is offering a transition path. That means there won't be and overwriting of data or any confusion about which application is opening which files. Please check yourself before spreading any more misinformation.

Good-bye verizon, hello wolrd

Goodbye Verizon, Hello World Account: 012xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Customer Id Code: 11xxxxxxx Customer since 1995 with 56k dial-up But not much longer. {edited for privacy} The service I am suppose to get: High Speed Internet Enhanced 3.1 to 7 Mbps What I really get: download 1.54mbps upload 0.41mbps Wednesday 21May 2014, 01:07:35 PM Your IP: {edited for privacy} Down 1.80 up 0.56 Reboot the modem.Again.

So I goggle Verizon speed test I choose the “test my internet speed” It goes to “test your lousy internet to our business zoom-zoom fios!!!!!!!” http://www.verizon.com/smallbusiness/internetspeedtest/ Down 1.37 up .71 Now that’s interesting, as the speed is half of speakeasy.net website. So I choose the Verizon speed test on the left. http://www.verizon.com/home/fios-quantum-internet/speedtest.html down 2.90 up 0.71 Now the speed is almost the same as speakeasy.net Must be a mistake. So I run the test on each website several more times. Same results. Is it possible Verizon has deliberately throttled the business site speed by 50% to game the speed???????

Won’t run speed test. Just sits at preparing download test. 08/16/2014 Get email on my smart phone. Yes, my phone. Can’t get emails from the the dsl line, or net access. “Verizon is experiencing a service disruption”. Notice its Verizon, not the customers, who have the disruption. The best part is it tells the customer to go to a web site to check on the outage. The web page I can't access as the dsl signal is down. What does the web page say, you ask??????? “We are having a disruption of service and are trying real hard to get it back up”. Again. I have finally dumped Verizon “enhanced” dsl for charter.net cable internet access. I went from this: down 2.90 up 0.71(sometimes) To this: down 63.54 up 3.31 Sixty-three point fifty-four mbps Charter cable, internet only cable box What a coincidence, now that I have real “enhanced” internet speed, Netflix flys like a rocket. No rebuffering, no “internet service not available”, no waiting for the movie to reload if I fast forward/rewind. And the best part is……. Drum roll, Please rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.(cymbol crash)! Fri, 30 May 2014 01:31:59 an email from Verizon Dear Valued Verizon Customer, We realize you have choices when it comes to choosing your Broadband provider, and would like to take this opportunity to say thank you for being a loyal customer and for choosing Verizon. In order to continue to bring you quality service and product innovation, at times we need to raise our rates. Your monthly rate will increase by $3.00 That was all I needed to switch to Charter. So I’m going from $35 a month for slow and many times nonexistent service, to $40 for service that is 10 to 20 times faster, and doesn’t demand a bribe, err, a voluntary contribution from Netflix not to be throttled. And does anyone really believe Verizon position why net neutrality is bad????? Verizon Says It Wants to Kill Net Neutrality to Help Blind, Deaf and Disabled People http://billmoyers.com/2014/06/13/verizon-says-it-wants-to-kill-net-neutrality-to-help-blind-deaf-and... Verizon lobbyists are canvassing Capitol Hill with a curious new argument against net neutrality — it hurts disabled people. BAWAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA The sad fact is Verizon, and all of the copper wire providers can't wait to dump you. I also cut the satellite/cable TV plans, as 500 channels and nothing to watch. I live in L.A. and are fortunate to have FREE DIGTAL over the air TV. So I programmed my TV to the 15 stations I only watch, use netflix, or gasp, read a book!!!!!!!!! So, good-bye Verizon. Adious. Zoi geen. Adieu. Annyeonghi kyeseyo. Arrivederci. Auf Wiedersehen. Do svidan’ya.

I know your pain and at least you have the choice to dump Verizon and go somewhere else. I don't have that choice because of where I live Verizon are the only internet providers. I've been having line issues since they moved me over to their "enhanced" service last year. Two months after I was switched my speed began to get throttled down so I called regular support, no help there, then I came here and Executive Appeals took over my case. Man, was that the worst decision ever because they actually made my line worse; constant dropouts began a week after they began working on my line. The original issue was only the throttling, so it went from that to my line being barely usuable but E A refused to fix the problem they caused and stopped talking to me altogther, left me high and dry. Anyway, back I went to regular support and that has turned into a nightmare. No one listens, no cares and now they want to take away the 7.1M that I've had for several years because they think that is causing the dropouts even though I have repeatedly told them that the E A caused the dropout issue and that I never had any major problems with the 7 megs. Sigh, so now on top of still having the throttling issue and dropouts, they want to downgrade my speed. They have had me at 1mbps (as a test) and I still had the dropouts, so I don't understand why they're insisting on lowering my speed permanently when they themselves (MCO) know the lower speed did not stop/correct the dropouts. This has been going on for 10 very long months and I went from having a mostly issue free, good line to an issue filled, bad line...and it continues. This November will be exactly one year since this ordeal began.
Anyway, didn't mean to hijack your post! But I'm glad at least you could leave Verizon and go somewhere better.

Say good-bye to pirated computer games. Reasons for you to buy generic games!

Found this article!
It is totally true. So many benefits of generic games!!
Please check its source here for more picture reference:
http://happylifegreen.blogspot.tw/2015/01/say-good-bye-to-pirated-computer-games.html
IT IS CHEAPER
One of major reasons for most people installing pirated games is because they want to save money. However, they are wrong! If they play it wisely, purchasing generic games can be much cheaper!
Thanks to this digital era; nowadays you can buy and download almost all games from internet. There are several major gaming platforms. Biggest ones are Steam, Uplay, and Origin.
Steam is the biggest digital platform which houses thousands of games in more than 237 countries and in 21 different languages. Uplay started with Ubisoft games like Assassin’s Creed series and now expands to a much wider range of games. Origin, on the other hand, is (currently) purely for EA games.
You can literally find so many game discounts EVERYDAY on these game platforms. Moreover, every now and then, they have big sales as well. For example, last month Steam had its holiday big sales which had more than 5554 games on sale!
It is common to see many, many 90% off, 75% off, 60% off… You need to be very self-constrained before you put too many games in your Shopping Cart! Haha!
Another good thing is that games in digital format do drop in prices.
In Steam, it is common that after a couple of months of its launch, a game will start to have discount, and then it will drop in prices. For example, when Thief was first launched in 2014, the price was US$59.99. But if you check it on Steam, its price now already dropped to US$29.99.
If you go to a retail shop and want to buy a box version of this game, the price will probably still be close to US$59.99.
On the other hand, if you buy pirated games. It could cost more.
Pirated games usually charges by number of DVDs, and one DVD costs around US$3.
Because of nice visual graphic, it is common to see games exceed 15GB—which will requires roughly 3 DVDs or more. One DVD cost $3; in another word, you need to pay $9 for one game.
Some games, for example, The Evil Within, requires more than 38.6GB of disk space. It will need, I’m not sure, maybe more than 8 DVDs? Which means US$24??
What I usually do is to add games in Wish List. When the game is on sales, Steam will send me email, and I will be able to track if I am satisfied with the discount percentage or not. Easy!
IT IS SAFE WITH NO VIRUS
This is easy. No one will argue that almost all, if not all, pirated games (or software) have malware hidden inside! There is no free meal. If you want to save money, you need to trade in something else.
I am not sure how those virus will do to me, but I don’t want it secretly downloading some funny stuff from internet, and definitely I don’t want my credit card or other personal info be stolen!
YOU CAN CLOUD-SYNC GAME PROGRESS
Many games support cloud sync, meaning that you can go to any computer and start a game from where it left.
It is quite convenient. I have two laptops for home and office. When I go to a business trip, I can still continue my games from my work laptop.
In Steam, if you see a small cloud icon in front of games, it mean that the game supports cloud sync. The function works quite well!
ENJOY TEAM WORK AND DLC
If you play pirated Battlefield 4 or Titanfall (and many others), say good-bye to team mode~
Quite a number of games—especially EA games— require you to connect to game server via internet in order to play in multiplayer mode.
If you want to play with friends or want to challenge other games, buy generic games!
Many games have DLC packs which allow you to equip with different weapons, outfit, or special items. Sometime, pre-purchased games give you these for free.
Well, no such benefits in pirated versions.
EASY INSTALL AND UPDATE
How to install a game? You just need to click a “DOWNLOAD” button and then worry free. After installed, the game will update automatically; so you will always have the latest version of the game.
HAVE A SENSE OF FULFILLMENT
Currently I have more than 140 games in Steam and many others in Uplay and Origin. I have quite a sense of fulfillment to see all those game icons in one place.
GAMES WILL NEVER LOST
Years ago when there is no those digital platforms, you need to keep your game DVDs (or VCDs) well. Once lost, then bye-bye to the game. The same applies to pirated games that cannot comply with game platform.
If you own generic games, you will never lose them! You can change as many computers as you like; you can un-install games; you can buy-it-and-forget-it; you can keep games for generation for your grand-children. Those games will always be there waiting for you.
Once you want to put your hands on the games again, you just need to click “DOWNLOAD” button, and the game will alive once again!

So long, and thanks for contributing, in your way.

After 23 years as a VZW customer, VZW won't offer any incentive if I upgraded and commited to another two years. Time to say good-bye.

When you complete your current contract, Verizon has options on which incentives you would like to take.
You can sign a new 2 yr service contract by purchasing a new phone at a considerable discount(~$400+).
You can also choose to purchase a new smartphone on Edge at full retail cost for which Verizon will give you either a 37.5% or a 62.5% discount(depending on your data allowance) on your monthly line access fee when on the More Everything plan.
If you choose to simply continue using your current phone on the More Everything plan, Verizon ALSO offers the same 37.5%/62.5% discount(depending on your data allowance) on your monthly line access fee.
Of course, as with anything else, there are some which always want more of a discount than what is offered.
Hopefully, after you get used to the rates with your new provider, you won't then want MORE which they likely won't be willing to give you.
Good luck with the new provider.

Re: "An Error occurred while downloading content."in response to augiefritzmom
I have been trying to fix this for 4 weeks , several visits to the apple store ... all irrelevant suggestions , was even told to buy an Apple TV ten 3 as it was an issue with HD steaming only supported on the new unit ...
I do not go on these sites , but Apple are losing the plot these days ...
Here is what I found that fixed the issue for me ...
1) go to Gen\network\DNS
2) It will be set to Auto , for some reason the DNS is being set to you router , not your service provider ...
3) I am with Charter (do a quick search charter DNS on the Web) , will give you their DNS ,
Charter DNS Servers
http://www.charter.com
Primary DNS: 24.196.64.53
Secondary DNS:
View all United States of America DNS Servers
4) Go to manaul and set the DNS to the service prover
5) should be good to go ...
Why we have to go to the level to solve this stuff I have no idea ..... hope it helps ....

There are way too many photos on my internal hard drive. I have older libraries, and newer libraires in iPhoto and Aperture 2. What is the best way to find and reduce the number of duplicate photos/libraries before upgrading to Aperture 3?

Sharon-
Good idea.
Back up first.
I would probably wait for the merge function of the latest version before merging. Be sure to verify every merge.
Merge Libraries, then from within Aperture move images to referenced on external hard drives.

Disk Failure: what next?

my late 2012 iMac slowed to unusuable state after Yosemite upgrade then on reboot it failed. After verbose reboot and disk utility verify/repair I'm at the state that it is unrepairable. So, what next?
disk utility tells me to copy everything I can, then reformat and restore what I copied. Is it as simple as this? Won't I still be on the same failed HDD?
I have a cloud based backup of all my documents and settings, but not a disk image. So I'm thinking I can do one of the following:
1). Do as I think disk utility is telling me and transfer the full disk image to and external use drive I have, reformat the internal drive, then copy the image back. This sounds too good to be true?
2.). Get a copy of my documents from the cloud service, reformat and reinstall OS X from disc utility, copy over my documents? I assume I would have to reinstall my apps going this route.
3). I need to get a new physical internal drive installed by an apple place and let them do the transfer ( what does that run? US$)
4) some other option
thanks for any input!

If you wish to prove to yourself the need for a new drive, then you will need to re-partition and reformat it, then install OS X on it. If it still won't work properly then the drive is probably bad. The Yosemite upgrade had nothing to do with it. A new upgrade won't kill the drive, but it can cause problems to appear that have always been present.

Is the Creative zen micro a good bye or a bad

I heard alot of horror stories about creative zen micros freezing and the headphone jacks are not working so I want ask your opinion is the creative zen micro a good bye or a cheap urelieable mp3 player. I love the design and the colors and the extra features but is the player relieable or nice to look at but really senseti've. If buying the creative zen is going to be this big investment then maybe i should get an ipod its just the ipod seems so less in comparison.Please reply so that i might have a greater understanding on what to buy.

I agree with Kerndrone. People come here mostly to look for solutions to their problems. This constitutes a lot to the negati've talk. Also,how many would purposely come into a forum just to praise a player?
ipods aren't great either. I feel that they are just an overpriced piece of gadget with very few features - whatever the zen has, the ipods doesn't (i.e. FM radio/recorder,voice recorder, simple organiser) .On the other hand, whatever the ipod has, the zen also has (with the exception of games, which i think is dumb. An audio player, as its name suggests, it for the purpose of AUDIO, some SIMPLE games? it's so dumb, i'll rather play my mobile phone's, which has color, and nicer to view.)
Further, the Zen comes with much more accessories than the ipods - velvet pouch, craddle + stand + belt clip + charger + USB cable + earphones. ipods don't come with chargers, i think. The charger is pretty expensi've S$69, and the earphones cost S$49 if bought separately.

Nearly every web application we created in the last 3 years was about to put fat clinet features like dynamic auto compleetion and updates of the page content without Page refresh (to give just 2 examples) into a web application hiding the networtk communication by ajax.
Doing that as an applet (or flash-application if you'r Adobe addicted) would have been much easier, more (automatically) testable and more browser indipendent. But nobody (including customers who don't know better and collegues who don't want to cunsult the customers but code) wants to think about that because web applications are considered as the most modern aproach...

Good Bye Version 1.0.3 build 16 -- How do I uninstall everything and go back to previous version?

Good Bye Version 1.0.3 build 16 -- How do I uninstall everything and go back to the previous version?
Okay, I found the prior version of DesktopManager for Mac in one of my old backups from March of this year. The new 1.0.3 dmg has an uninstaller next to the installer. I am going to remove 1.0.3. from all of my computers, and install the prior version, and set the preferences for do NOT (NEVER!!!) upgrade / update!

So -- did it work? I've heard people have gone back to the previous version and mysteriously, the syncing problems followed along, even though they weren't there before v. 1.0.3.
BTW, where do you find the uninstall piece on the application? I looked for it once and didn't find it where I thought it would be.

On-Demand/On-Cloud vs On-premise or HybriD ?? What next..

Hi CRM Enthusiasts
A short intro about me, graduated in IT and joined one of SAP Consultancy firm back in 2006. And from there I was involved in numerous CRM implementations across the globe. So my forte is SAP CRM & Middleware, and light on ECC modules.
I started on SAP CRM 4.0 back then, and from then to now, things have evolved slowly but in a good way surely.
Now, as part of my job profile, I am responsible for designing the CRM architecture and action plan for next 5 years for my current employer. Its fascinating how things got changed in past one year or so, like Hybris acquisition, this came as a shocker as many of the companies did a huge amount investment in WCEM including mine, there are definitely pro-cons comparing WCEM with Hybris (Its not all about look and feel) I believe. And I want to believe that this investment is worthwhile.
Coming to a point now, what next ? We have got CRM on-premise and there is not much of it used today in our business, but there is huge opportunity to CRM to grow here. So is it worth building the blocks of Marketing, Sales, Interaction Centre on CRM 7.0 or should we start investing our resources On-cloud/On-demand SAP Cloud for Customer solutions. If it’s later, what are the limitation when compare to on-premise, I know this question is very wide, but for me and I guess, everyone out there need to know, how quickly and when we can get all the functionalities of on-premise with on-cloud or is theew an interim Hybrid solution integrating On-cloud (front end) with On-premise ??? What is the transition strategy of SAP ?? What happens to On-premise Customers ?? How secure is On-cloud?
There was a lot of buzz of this in Sapphire 2014, is Cloud the next big thing ?? If yes, can we have a SAP road map for this solution and how much will this solution support when compared to CRM on-premise solution.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
MMM

Hi MMM,
Yes this product from SAP is indeed beautiful. You should also learn about SAP JAM in case you're not aware.. SAP JAM would definitely erase all earlier notions that SAP products can't look sexy
Regarding strategy of SAP, with the amount of time Cloud solutions are getting in SAPPHIRE, I can guess that the product is here to stay & SAP is coming out with new features & industry specific modules on a quick pace..
Now coming to your query on using C4C as a standalone solution.. Yes it can be used provided you utlise marketing features only.. For sales, it would lead to opportunity win/loss stage & for service tickets, it would end as "work completion"
Unlike SAP CRM, you cannot create sales/service orders or create invoices in C4C.. This is a 'line of business' solution.. Now the "popular CRM cloud solution" I talked about before also can't make invoices or sales orders except maybe through apps which needs to be customised & configured.
I had a query on CRM, while invoices are created, is financial settlement also taken care by SAP CRM on-premise or you need to integrate with ERP Fi-CO?
Now coming to your last query on SAP C4C for customers who aren't in SAP landscape. We specificaly did an integration with non sap BW for a major chemical company using middleware and the results are quite good.. I'll encourage you to go through several blogs posted by mentors which can help you to understand C4C capabilities.. I found this document to be quite useful.
With Regards,
Rahul

My Ipad mini only has the newstand app visible...I've tried rebooting...What next?

My IPAD mini only has the newstand app visible on the homescreen...spotlight is not working...I've tried rebooting...What next?

Rebooting with the sleep and home buttons...holding them down at the same time until the Apple logo appears on the screen? If that didn't do any good and Spotlight isn't working, you can try resetting all settings and if that doesn't work, then you should probably restore your iPad next.
