Because I have imported from a number of different sources into Aperture (3.2) over the years, I now have many duplicates in my library. Is there any way in which these can be identified and lated deleted?
Because I have imported photos from a number of different sources into Aperture (3.2), I now have many unwanted duplicates. Some of these are in the same "file/folder", others are not. Additionally, some of the duplicates may have different file names.
Can anyone advise me if there is a way of identifying such duplicates in Aperture so that I may later delete them? If this cannot be achieved within Aperture 3, does anyone know of a proven second-party app?
Before ending I should mention that I am reasonable competent on a computer but I am not in any way an expert. (So simple answers would be appreciated if this is possible!)
Hopefully yours, Jeremy
Jeremy -- I suggest making a complete separate copy of your Library and any Referenced Masters and keeping it for a year. "Duplicate" is, to humans, relative rather than absolute. My use of Duplicate Annihilator turned up many useful near duplicates, most of which I couldn't quickly distinguish. With a complete copy nearby, you can be slightly aggressive in your pruning, knowing that should you turn up something in ten months that you need (as an example: the full-size color file for a black & white printed shot that you thought was based on a full-size color Master but which is not), you'll have it.
IME, it was much more effective to get rid of things I didn't need, than to figure out which of several possible duplicates of an Image I did need.

ARE THERE ANY WAYS BY WHICH I CAN FIND THE Appln Servlet Container Memory .
You can check out Tomcat memory usage using Tomcat Manger
and clicking server status.
It gives the information like this
Free memory: 489.80 MB Total memory: 508.12 MB Max memory: 1016.12 MB
For specific application stats, i think there are some profilers which u have to search in google. -
Is there any way by which I can not use Thunar Sys Tray icon?
I am using stalonetray in OpenBox in Arch and when I copy-paste or cut-paste files in Thunar, a sys tray icon pops up. I don't want it to pop up.
Is there any way by which I can make it to not pop up?Trilby wrote:
I haven't used thunar for a while - but I don't remember it ever doing this before. I just verified that it doesn't here (freshly installed thunar, and cut-pasted, copy-pasted, etc, and I didn't get a tray icon.
Are you sure this isn't some other tool, like a clipboard manager? Are their any tooltip popups or menus available on the tray icon and/or what happens when you click the icon?
No. I use only Thunar. When I hover on the icon it says that "1 file operation running" when a copy-paste or cut-paste operation happens and when I left click and right click on it, it shows the copying window of thunar. The icon shows two small yellow folders placed diagonally. It's the same icon that appears on the file operation progress window of Thunar. I don't know whether Numix has anything to do with the specific icon though.

Is there any way through which I can stop download of my ABAP programs???
Dear all,
I want to know is there any way through which I can stop download of my ABAP programs so that no one can download or copy my programs without my permission.
Thanks in Advance
Sachin GautamHi again,
1. In that case we cannot do much.
2. However,
we can use
the exit
SEUED001
(fm is EXIT_SAPLS38E_001)
to restrict the program
in edit mode,display mode
etc etc.
depending upon the PROGRAM NAME.
I hope that serves your purpose.
regards,

I have two iPhones synced with the same Apple ID and so the contacts are being shared in both of them. Is there any way to revert this?? The reason is that if I delete some contact from one device then it automatically erases from the second one as well
Yes, you stop using the same Apple ID under Settings > iCloud.

I imported photos from an old iPhoto (2001) to photo library and can now see them only as thumbnails but not when I click on them. The screen is black cannot see or print either. Is there any way to salvage those old photos? I now use iLife09. OS 10.6
Did you import the old iPhoto library into the new one? That's not what you want to do because you will import all of the original, modified and thumbnail files as if they were original files. Lots of duplicates and useless small photos.
Do you have a backup copy of the library that you imported into to? If you do then bring it in and then use iPhoto Library Manager to merge the two libraries into a new, 3rd library.
If you don't then you'll have to try to fix the current one and then cull out the duplicates and small useless photos as follows: make a temporary, duplicate copy of your library and apply the three fixes in order as necessary.
Fix #1
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your HD/User/Home()/ Library/Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your HD/User/Home()/Library /Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
Fix #2
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #3
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
If this doesn't fix the problem you'll have to start over from scratch and create a new library from the files inside the Originals folder of your current library. But first you should cull out the small photos that would be the thumbnails from the 2001 library.
Move the Originals folder to the Desktop, open and do a search for Kind=photo, File size is less than 10 KB. That should find all of the thumbnail files which you can then drag to the Trash. You might have to make that less than 50 KB. Then Import the remaining photos into a new iPhoto library.

Hi at the moment my ipod is on manual sync mode. Is there any way of changing this to auto-sync without losing the music on my ipod or library? Possibly more importantly is there a way I can transfer the ratings from my ipod onto my i-tunes?
This is so I can delete music from my ipod knowing its rated on my i-tunes so I can then see later if I want to re-add it based on its rating

Unfortunately there is not.

Re: camera connection kit- I uploaded pictures using the sandisk connection, clicked on 10 pics to delete and ALL of my files were deleted from the sandisk! Is there any way to recover these pics?
Kevin-
You say you uploaded the pictures to the iPad? Then they should still be there, and you can copy them to your computer through iTunes.
There are utility programs for a computer that can recover deleted files from hard drives, and they may work for camera memory cards as well. I've used DiskWarrior for Macintosh to recover pictures from an SD card before.
