Bug: My Finder folder has 4 items but Cover Flow is showing 5.
My Finder folder has 4 items but Cover Flow is showing 5.
I can even click on the erroneous item in cover flow, but it doesn't atually exist.
Mavericks, everything is updated.
Sure, rebooting or restarting Finder might fix it, but this yet another bug with Finder I have found.
Hello,
Can you count the beeps or flashes?
1 beep = no RAM installed
2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
3 beeps = no good banks
4 beeps = no good boot images in the boot ROM (and/or bad sys config block)
5 beeps = processor is not usable
In addition to the beeps, on some computers the power LED will flash a corresponding number of times plus one. The LED will repeat the sequence after approximately a 5-second pause. The tones are only played once.
Note: In this case, a flash is considered to be 1/4 second or 250 ms or greater in length.
Did you get any of the Install Discs with the Macs?
On the one with no Utilities, might try reapplying the big combo update...
The combo update for PowerPC-based Macs...

I really hope I'm not the only one this happens to. For some reason about 2 times out of 15 when I try to drag items from the list under the 'covers' in a finder window it won't let me.
I.e. say I have 3 files in my finder and it's in cover flow view, in any one of these times I will select them and no matter how much I click and drag they just don't move! I then have to switch to folder view, drag them easily to another location, and then switch back to cover flow.
I'm not dragging the previews, trust me, I'm dragging the list version of the folders/files etc.
It's just a matter of luck if I the next time I open a finder window it wont let me drag.
Here's a pic of what happens normally when you drag:

(ignore my short story in the background)
And here's what happens sometimes:
http://s89.photobucket.com/albums/k220/rowanmcdonald1991/?action=view¤t=no tworking.jpg
(it just won't let me drag no much how I click and drag, etc) (i.e. just selected items)
Surely, out of the millions of users of Leopard this happens to someone else sometimes? I can't believe Apple missed this, it's been like this ever since I got my computer (two months ago)
Any answers?Anyone?

After updating my iPhone4s to the lastest update my photostream stopped updated onto my comuter. From my phone it looks like pictures have been moved into the photostream folder... but they are not showing up on my computer. Help!
I have signed out then back into the cloud. I have comfirmed location of the photostream folder. I have have even restored settings on my phone. any ideas on what I can do to get it working again? or do I have to accept defect, and manually save my photos?There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

Documents do not render in finder preview, quick look or cover flow
The contents of all types of appleworks documents do not appear in finder preview, quick look or cover flow on both of my computers. The generic AWKS logo appears.
Why does this happen and what can be done to correct this?
I have repaired permissions a number of times and have restarted the computer.I'm not sure Appleworks files are supported in any form of preview. Appleworks was killed long before any of the preview functions were developed, so I don't suppose its file types were included.
Quicklook has a plugin architecture, so perhaps some programmer that likes Appleworks will create a plugin for it. -

My iPad was lost today. I am using the Find My iPhone app, but it is not showing on the device list or the map (though my iPhones, even one that is not iCloud enabled, is). What can I do?
The only thing you might do is enable Lost Mode, which will allow you to set a passcode on it (as well as a message and phone number where you can be reached) so it will be locked when and if it does go online. You can also receive an email informing you if it goes online so you can track it on icloud.com. See http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfc0f0165.

ANYONE HELP?????? Cover Flow not showing my artwork
I have the following problem but only with certain artwork, not all, I added images to all my files before and hardly ever did I get this problem(Cover Flow not showing my artwork), I usually added the same image or another image to make the cover flow "react", so to speak; the funny thing with my problem is that the files in question still have the artwork I put before in the Get info thingy, they appear whenever I see the info tab of the files, and when they're playing, the image shows at the bottom of the playlists list(above the repeat button and that), but the artwork doesn't show in the cover flow (-- =S ???--), no notifications show up about what's happening, and the image file I added is just a regular .JPEG from an album. In fact right now it's playing and the cover flow is still not showing the artwork, luckily this doesn't affect my iPod config and it shows there, but still it seems weird.
Now does this mean the iTunes is having some sort of behavior issues or it just fancies playing with me? =S*Why is artwork not showing on my iPod when it's there in iTunes?*
iTunes will display a cover in many of it's views provided at least one track from the album has embedded artwork. The iPod appears to load only the artwork from track one to create the cover flow and album views which means that it can sometimes fail to display art for albums even when you can see the art in iTunes. Further, when tracks are played on the iPod, artwork is displayed if and only if it exists in the currently playing track, so track one may show art while track two does not.
*How to find tracks without artwork*
To find all the tracks without artwork so that you can update them you can try http://www.stum.de/itunes-find-tracks-without-artwork/ for Windows or http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=trackswithoutartwork for Macs. Use Google, Amazon, Discogs etc. to locate relevant images. Ideally these should be square, 320x320 pixels or above and borderless to give the best results in the various menus. If you have artwork for some tracks of an album, but not others, find the album in the main music folder, select a track with artwork, right-click (Option-Click for Macs) on the art & click copy, then select all the tracks of the album, use CTRL-I or Command-I to *Get Info* and then paste the image into the artwork box.
I say 320x320 because I believe (from using TouchCopy) that it's the size used in the iPod cache so if you're going to crop or resize you might as well work to that size. Otherwise 200x200 is probably good enough.
*Rebuild artwork cache*
Sometimes the artwork cache becomes corrupt and fails to show correct artwork, even when this is properly set up in iTunes. To rebuild the artwork cache, connect your iPod to iTunes. Locate the iPod in the Sources pane on the left-hand side, then select the Music tab. Remove the tick from *Display album artwork on your iPod*, sync the iPod, reselect the option & sync again.

Hi. I am having an issue with music on my IPod. It would probably be easier to explain my specific issue: I have songs by Band of Horses from Cease to Begin. When viewing my albums through cover flow, it shows Cease To Begin as two separate albums, one with only Islands on the Coast, and the other having Islands on the Coast with 3 other songs. If I delete the album with only one song from my IPod, it deletes the song from the other "album" as well. If I go to "All Songs" by Band of Horses, it only shows one Islands on the Coast, so it is not a duplicate issue. Also, in Itunes, it only shows one album. I just recently updated to iOS5 on my 4th Gen IPod Touch, if that helps.

Problem deleting items in cover flow view
Hi,
I recently upgraded to a new MacBook Pro with running Leopard and I thought that viewing directories using "cover flow" view in the finder would be a great new way to quickly browse through folders containing many pictures and deciding what to keep and what to get rid of. However, I've run into a problem. When I delete an item in the directory, sometimes the highlight bar automatically highlights the next item in the list (what I want it to do), and sometimes it just disappears so that when I press the down arrow, rather than just jumping to the next picture in the folder after the one I just deleted, it jumps all the way back to the first picture in the folder. As you can imagine, this can be pretty annoying when trying to sort through a folder of over 600 photos. I can't figure out why deleting an item sometimes selects the next item and sometimes deselects all items, but I would like to find a way to fix this so I can sort through my photos with ease. Thanks for any info.

I can't see my pictures in teh finder using Quick look or Cover flow
I have iPhoto8 installed and it works fine, but I cannot get a look at my library of photos without opening iPhoto. I thought I was supposed to be able to use the finder and cover flow to see my pictures quickly to find the one I wanted without opening iPhoto? When I go to pictures I get the icon for the iphoto program and it says iphoto library, but I cant see pictures. Am I doing something wrong?
OBGYNDR
With iPhoto 7 the old iPhoto Library Folder has become a Unix Style Package folder. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
All of these are safer and fster than surfing the iPhoto Library Folder.
Regards

Cover flow albums show songs from multiple albums
I love my iPod classic. the only issue I'm having is that when reviewing some albums via the coverflow feature, about 5 albums shows songs from multiple albums. they play correctly. It appears just the listing is messed up. I've tried deleting, adding the albums back to the library and resyncing, but it's still happening. Anybody seen this?
Try *One cover, too many tracks* below:
*HowTo: Grouping Tracks Into Albums*
Excuse the long post, but hopefully covering all the bases (that I can think of) will help you fix the other issues you are likely to run into as you try to organise your iTunes library.
*Use an album friendly view*
iTunes will let you sort music on many columns, some of which are unlikely to group albums together or put the tracks in their normal order. The most useful order for editing the library is probably *Album by Artist*. If you're not already there, select the list view and click on the column heading for Artist until it reads Album by Artist.
*One cover, too many tracks*
The iPod (and iTunes to a lesser extent) conflates two or more albums with the same title, most obviously with *Greatest Hits*. On the iPod this can result in one album acting as a combination of two or more. Selecting any cover gives all the tracks of all albums with the same title. The workaround for this "Greatest Hits" bug is to give each album a unique title - I tend to go for *Album - Album Artist* as this reads clearly in the iTunes browser. Alternatively you could use the wording as it appears on the cover or append different numbers of spaces for each different album. Somewhat oddly, setting different values for Sort Album doesn't work.
*Missing Artist or Album not with others by same artist*
iTunes relies on the Gracenote CDDB database when identifying CD's. This often marks collections or anthologies of an artist's work as a compilation. In iTunes, however, the compilation flag has the logical function of grouping together tracks with the same album name, but different artists on each track, e.g. "Now That's What I Call Metal 666!". These compilations are then all grouped together at the end of cover flow. Most of us however, would expect "Greatest Hits" albums to be listed with the other albums by the same album artist. For albums which are essentially by a single album artist or group it is best to set the appropriate value for the album artist and clear the compilation flag.
*One album, too many covers*
For true compilations, where each track is by a different artist, the answer is to set the compilation flag to true and enable the iTunes preference to *Group compilations when browsing*. If the album is not a compilation however, any tracks which list guest artists may be treated as separate items. Filling in the Album Artist field is enough to link things in iTunes. Sadly, however, the iPod ignores the Album Artist field when grouping albums so this is only a partial solution. You can simply mark the entire album as a compilation which seems to be the way iTMS handles it, however that's not an ideal fix. Short of waiting for Apple to address this issue (and as far as I can tell it goes back to the 1st gen. of iPods) we need a workaround. What I do is to put any additional artist info. in square brackets after the song name. E.g. *Track \[Feat. Guest\]* and then set *Artist=Album Artist* for each track. For anthologies where the Album Artist is credited as part of another group, e.g. for Cream tracks on an Eric Clapton anthology, I use *Track \[As Group\]*. For a track where the main Album Artist doesn't receive a credit, e.g. the first track of the Slim Shady LP credited to Jeff Bass, I just set the track name to *Track \[Guest\]* while still setting the artist to the album artist. N.b. I use square brackets to indicate that this is information about the track as distinct from the song title and also use this style for Mix/Live/Bonus info.
*One album, still too many covers*
iTunes may split albums into two or more sections if some tracks from the album have different values for Artist, Album Artist, Album, No. of Discs or Part of a Compilation. Tiny differences such as trailing spaces, accented characters or variants of symbols can sometimes be quite hard to spot. The iPod is also more sensitive to case variations and may split or reorder an album that looks okay in iTunes. Normally overtyping the desired value for each shared field will complete the grouping of the album into one entity. Occasionally, however, this method seems to fail. When this happens I've found that you can force every field to update properly by adding some extra text - e.g. a trailing X, which once applied seems to complete the joining of the tracks into one album. Once this has happened the extra data can be removed and the album should remain properly grouped.
*Tried that, there are STILL too many covers!*
The Sort Artist, Sort Album & Sort Album Artist fields can be used to override the normal sort order. For example iTunes automatically drops leading articles (a/an/the) so "The Beatles" are arranged under "B" instead of "T". Occasionally different tracks from the same album can have different values in these sort fields which can also break up the grouping. Making the sort columns visible in iTunes can help with spotting & correcting such problems.
*One cover for multi-disc album*
Multi-disc albums are often listed as *Album (CD1)* for CD 1, *Album (CD2)* for CD 2 etc. To display these properly using just one cover, each disc should have the correct *Disc X of Y* values set, and then the entire album should be given the single title Album. Being somewhat obsessive I also renumber the tracks sequentially, working backwards from the last track (so that no two tracks ever have the same number) until I reach disc 1. BTW You can still give the individual discs different artwork should it be relevant so that the correct artwork will be displayed as the album progresses.
*One artist, many names*
With some artists, particularly classical composers, you should be aware of alternative representations of their names. E.g. 2Pac vs. Tupac. The menus will work best if for each artist you standardise on just one form of their name. E.g. make a choice between Mozart, W.A. Mozart or Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and then apply it consistently. For classical music I tend also to use the Composer as the Artist & Album Artist and either discard the performer details or place these into the Comments field.

Album artwork/cover flow not showing up?
I added my own artwork to some of my songs but they are not showing up in cover flow or when I'm playing the songs. Even the songs I didn't add my own artwork to (the iTunes ones), they don't show up either. Help? =P
On iTunes for me, the artwork shows up but not on my iPod. Im not sure why that is...

Nano won't play songs anymore - cover flow shuffle shows no artwork
All of a sudden, my ipod nano 3g will no longer play songs via cover flow. The artwork is gone even though it is there in iTunes on my computer. If I click an album to play it, it briefly selects that album (with the missing artwork still) as if it is going to play it, but then it just goes back to the cover flow shuffle and never plays anything. I just had iTunes erase everything on it and resync, but that made no difference.
I tried playing songs through the play list instead of the cover flow and still it just acts like it is going to play the song and then gives up and returns to the previous menu. So basically, I cannot play any songs on this nano, which is only a few months old. Help!? Thanks!
Message was edited by: lowcountrybirdOk, I've fixed it. I read a few other posts about resetting it. I held the Select and Menu buttons down at the same time (this works better if you place the nano on a flat surface first) for several seconds. Then the Apple logo appears while the nano is being reset. After that, cover art work appears and more importantly the songs play. Whew. That was scary.

SQL Query for SSRS has data but fields don't show that data
I am having a strange issue here with my new report;
First off, this report is an availability report for employees. If they are busy then a 0 should be displayed for that Hour and if they are free then a 1 is to be displayed. There are 2 parameters setup for use in this query, one is a Date/Time parameter
and the other is a Text parameter where another Dataset Query is grabbing the data for (Departments)
I have 2 Parameters, 1 is for a Department and the other is to select the date.
Hour1 Hour2 Hour3 Hour4 Hour5
Hour6 Hour7
Smith, John | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
1 | 1 | 1 |
Som, One | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0
| 0 | 1 | 1 |
When I run the query in the Query Designer for the Dataset the information is displayed correctly and as I would expect it, however, when I run the Report and choose the same information for the 2 parameters then the report only ever shows all 1's;
Smith, John | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
1 | 1 | 1 |
Som, One | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
I've tried searching but didn't know what term to use that describes what is going on.
Like I said, this works if ran in SSMS and works when ran in the Query Builder of SSRS but when it comes to displaying the data on the report the incorrect information is displayed.
Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT
I have also ran the Report Table Wizard with the same query and chosen Names as the row and Hours as the columns and the same thing happens - just all 1's are displayed even thought the query in Query Builder shows correct information.The difference running the query directly in query designer and when the report runs is that you manually type in values for the parameters when running query designer. It is likely that the parameter values from the report have a different syntax than you
expect. This will happen especially when setting the available values of a parameter from a data cube query. A value from an analysis cube may be displayed in the query designer as "\Project\Iteration Node" while the actual value is "[Work Item].[Iteration
Hierarchy].[Iteration2].&[-7189901615194941888]&[-8272609059741292246]". Very different as you can see. This example is from the TFS analysis server.
The best way to validate that your parameters are passing the values (and syntax) you expect is to add text boxes to your report for each parameter and set them to display Parameters!ParameterName.Value.
