Apple Image Picker

Hi,
Does anyone know how to clear the recent photos in Apple Image Picker used in Address Book and Adium. There is no documentation I can find advising on how to go about this..
thanks

Huh? What's your question?

How do I stop iChat/Address Book image picker attempting to connect to unavailable server?

I'm using Mac OS X Lion. In iChat, if I click on my personal image then select Modify Image, I get the image picker that allows you to change the image, take a picture from iSight, etc. In Address Book, I can get to this same or similar window when I double-click on the personal image placeholder.
In both cases, a spinner starts up in the lower left corner and after a few seconds I get an error stating that "the connection to server XXXX has failed." This message will pop up continuously until I close the program. The server that it is trying to connect to is a local Mac OS X Snow Leopard server that used to be part of the network but no longer exists.
By setting up a DNS entry to get it to attempt to connect to a server that does exist and using Little Snitch, I've been able to deduce that it is NetAuthSysAgent trying to make a TCP connection to port 139 TCP (netbios-ssn).
First, I find it odd that a Mac program trying to connect to a Mac server would use NetBIOS. I also find it odd that either of these programs would need to connect to the server.
I have a new OS X Lion server but I no longer join to its directory services. As the issue seems to be some configuration left over from when I was connected to that server, I tried joining the new server and then unjoining to see if that would clean up the settings, but that did not help.
Performing a find . -type f -exec grep -l "<server name>" {} \; revealed two files:
.viminfo
~/Library/Application\ Support/SyncServices/Local/TFSM/com.apple.Keychain/data.syncdb
The latter was a SQLite database that did not revel anything very legible.
I've search high and low for a setting that points to this old server name to no avail.

First off I want to thank you for sticking with me through this, it's nice to have somebody to shoot ideas around with, it made me think up ideas, what I'm trying to say is, by just writing this down in this thread I solved my own problem. Linc I already deleted almost all of the Login items previously, as I did have the same idea, that something in that spot was trying to connect to the desktop through the network, that didn't work, but for some people it could be a problem. When you first mentioned, "make sure that new windows don't open to a folder on the server.", that comment made me look around for any folders connected to the server, then in my last comment I mentioned the word "alias", turns out that was the problem. In my users folder on the Macbook Pro, I had 2 folders that were alias folders, one was the download folder and the other was the Movie folder, I made new folders and put copies of everything into the folders, then threw away the alias folders and renamed the two new folders I created with their original names, presto no more problem.
Must be getting old, cannot remember making any alias folders, but I probably did, probably had some great idea to save hard disk space on the Macbook Pro, only has 250 GB disk, the Mac Pro has over 8 Terebytes of space so I thought I'd use it probably, bad idea, sometimes I get too Geeky for my own good. Again, Thanks Linc for sticking with me on this.
There were interesting ideas on the internet, seems other people have run into similar problems, one suggestion was the terminal to check for any "open processes". link was here, if interested.... http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/25639/why-is-my-mac-constantly-trying-t o-connect-to-another-server
I'm going to mark your last comment as being helpful, as actually all of it was helpful in forcing me to find those pesky alias folders.

Image Picker Selection Area

I'm currently experiencing issues with the image picker across several Mac apps, including Address Book and iChat. The selection appears as rectangular instead of squared, thus deforming the image.
As far as I know this behavior is not normal. Any ideas on how to solve this without reinstalling Snow Leopard?

So, since no one as helped me I tried to figure out this on my own. It happens that, for some reason, Apple changed image picker from Leopard to Snow Leopard.

I don't see how can this be a feature, since people don't have a face that's wider than longer.

Can I get the Apple Color Picker in CS5 Windows?

HI -
I'm a lifetime Mac and long time PShop user transplanted into a Windows shop. Of all the things that I miss on my new workplace platform, the Apple Color Picker is the one that I encounter most often.
Is there a plug-in, an extension, is there some way, ANY WAY, that I could have the Apple CP to use on a Windows version of CS5?? It might seem like a trivial issue to Windows users but to a transplanted Mac user - it's a major one.
TIA your input.

You probably already know your choices, as provided by Photoshop on a Windows system, are only Adobe and Windows per the Edit - Preferences - General tab.
It may be possible some 3rd party could have invented an Apple Color Wheel work-alike, but I have never run across one. Try a Google search for:
color wheel picker Photoshop windows
Such a search turns up stuff like:
http://graphicssoft.about.com/od/colortoolswin/Color_Pickers_and_Color_Tools_for_Windows.h tm
and
http://www.anastasiy.com/panels
If you don't find one you like, you're probably best off just trying to get used to the Adobe color picker; it will afford you some system-independence for the future, should you switch back to Mac.

In Apple Color Picker, need to sort custom list

I just created a custom color list in Apple's Color Picker which is not sorted and I want it to be.
FYI: the Apple Color Picker opens in many applications for choosing what color something should be. For example, in TextEdit use menu Format > Font > Show Colors.
On the Color Picker, the 3rd tab by default has pre-defined lists of colors, including "Apple", "Developer", and "Web Safe Colors". I created a custom color list, which is out of order alphabetically (or any other way). I would like to sort that list alphabetically (or by color, I guess) without deleting and recreating every color. Can this be done?

Hi, whytwolf.
I thought your question was interesting, so I spent some time experimenting.
The Colors Palette doesn't permit re-ordering the items in the list, such as by dragging or Command-dragging them.
Unfortunately, the color list one creates using the Colors Palette — e.g. the file colorlistname.clr in your Home > Library > Colors directory — is an NSDictionary object. It's saved in binary format and it appears virtually impossible to edit reliably with a text editor. These objects are usually created and read using Cocoa programming. I know of no editor specifically designed to permit one to change these objects directly, and a variety of Web searches for such an editor failed to find a tool.
It appears there was once a utility called Color List Editor that seemed tailor-made for your purpose, but it appears to have vanished without a trace. While the VersionTracker listing remains, all of the links to the download are broken. I was able to track down the author's Web site but the download isn't available there. I've e-mailed him in case it's still available, though it may not work with Tiger given its age. If I hear back anything from the author, I'll let you know.
What I recommend you do is recreate the list, first focusing on the order of items by name you want to include in such. Then, once that's sorted, assign the swatches. You should probably do a trial run on paper or using a spreadsheet to get the names and sequence correct before you undertake the actual list-creation process again using the Color Palette. Then work carefully, since correcting errors in mid-list means deleting the error and all entries thereafter. Most tedious!
It might also be worthwhile to submit a Mac OS X Feedback, suggesting Apple enhance the Color Palette so that one can reorder colors by dragging them in the list, at least for color lists the user has created, i.e. those on which the user has Access permissions of Read & Write.
Good luck!

Ipod won't power on or sync. Is fully charged. Shows Apple image only.

Ipod is charged but won't power on or sync. Only shows the apple image for about a minute and then gone. When connect to computer it doesn't show in iPhoto or iTunes.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Apple Color Picker Erase Swatch function no longer works.

It was always possible to erase one of the swatches in the ubiquitous Apple Color Picker by dragging a white square over the swatch square you wanted to erase. Now that function doesn't work anymore. Very odd. You can add new colors as always, you just can't erase them. In any application where I use the Color Picker this function no longer works. For example Pixelmator, Rapidweaver, etc.
Any ideas?

Sorry, I read too much into it. I guess I couldn't imagine it was just scrolling. I was thinking you were talking about going from page to page with a swipe gesture.
Given that, their software is either broken or something is interfering. Any other programs have a problem with two-finger scrolling?

Image Picker- no images get saved or appear in the folder that gets created though alert says 'Saving images...' :-(

I am using Image Picker as an addon. Initially it worked fine but not anymore. I follow all the instruction - choosing tab, show all images, select few or all, then Save. An alert appears saying it is saving the selected no. of images, opens the target folder, nothing is saved or appears saved there! What am I missing/ I have tried removing and add the add on again.

Looks like there is a problem with that add-on in Firefox 36 - 5 "defect" reports since early January.

HT201401 cannot open the menu and cannot even turn it off, the white apple image is displayed on the screen. how can i get into the menu?

Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider.

IPOD IS STUCK ON APPLE IMAGE

my ipod is stuck on the apple image and no matter what i do, reset or anything it will not get off. the screen goes off and on with teh apple image and makes a clicky noise
does anyone know how to end this??

When I spoke to the second level technician, when I found out that they wanted to send my Ipod to the engineeers for evaluation of the problem, I asked if my Ipod was the first to have exhibited this problem. The technician laughed and sad "Oh, no, there have been a number before you!" On further searching through several discussion areas, it seems that a number of individuals are having the same problems. My Ipod was stuck from the time it was taken out of the box. I only managed to restart it once and I thought that I had the problem solved when it started downloading songs. However the hard drive started and stopped repeatedly and the unit began to heat up. It became so hot that I raised it from my desktop so that it could be cooled. I left to continue downloading but it failed and a folder with a triangle with an exclamation point appeared with a web site address to view. I do not claim to be an expert but I know that I am not alone in having this issue. I do not know what percentage of hard drive units will fail in general but if you look around this discussion group, you will find a number of similar complaints and we are the first crop of users.
