Can I open with a single key stroke my events?

Can I close and open with a single key stroke my events (Film rolls). They are all open when viewing the Library Photos. I would like to be able to close them all and just see the title of each event sometimes rather than scroll all the pictures. Iphoto 08

Bring up iPhoto's help file and search for "keyboard shortcuts".
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) 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 created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), 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. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

  • How many computers can I autorize with a single Adobe account?

    As a librarian, I work in many schools. We slowly start to buy eBook for students with difficulties in learning. Often, books are protected by DRM: we have to use the same account to open the books that the one we use to buy it.
    For now, only one person will be allowed to buy eBooks (me), so we will only have one account... but each student have his own computer, so I will have to autorize each computer with the same account.
    1. Can I do that?
    2. If yes, how many computers can I autorize with a single Adobe account?
    3. If no, what else can I do?
    Thank you very much,

    (1)You can do that with (2) up to six devices total including your computer.
    (3) The only other thing is to try to contact Adobe to see what arrangements they can make.
    Alternatively, contact Overdrive, who are the service most libraries use for lending ADE DRM books,
    which is effecitvely what you want to do.
    I am afraid I can't give any idea of the best contact points for those oarganizations.
    Maybe some other public librarian will be able to point you in the right direction.

  • Why Adobe Reader XI cannot open a pdf file that can be opened with Reader 9?

    Why Adobe Reader XI cannot open a pdf file within a browser that can be opened with Reader 9?

    Hi Steve,
    Sorry, I cannot post a URL to the file because it is for intenal use only.
    I noticed that the pdf file can be opened outside of IE browser if I disable the Adobe Reader add-on (active-X) in IE browser. If I enable the Reader add-on, the Reader cannot complete the file download. The progress bar goes in a half way, and stays there.
    Just FYI, the pdf file was created by Distiller 7. Do you think it is the issue of Reader add-on? Thanks.

  • LabVIEW binary format that can be opened with Python

    I need to save data in a binary format which can be opened with Python.  I have tried the "Write Waveforms to File (1D).vi" and can open them back up in LabView, but the binary format is not published anywhere, so I cannot open them in Python.  They appear to be saving as DataLog type binary files.
    Is there another binary format which I can use that I can open in Python?
    The reason I need this is that with 16-channel DAQ at 20kHz I can only save about 30 seconds of data.  For longer periods, the task of writing to a text file consumes all available memory and cpu.

    I found a solution.  I found an open-source project called pyTDMS (google for it), and it can read tdms type files sometimes.  It was some trial and error to get my data saved in a way that pyTDMS could open the file, but in the end it works great.
    I have two digital output channels as well as 16 analog input channels, so here is how I had to save the data within LabView:
    The 16 analog input channels were saved as a 1D array of waveforms.  Then the digital output channels were made into another 1D array of waveforms.  The trick was to use the write tdms subvi twice.  Once for the analog input channels and again, on the same file, for the digital output channels.  pyTDMS opens these files just fine, and I can use the metadata to sort out what channels the data goes with in Python.

  • UCCX-Max JTAPI triggers that can be associated with a single script

    Hi,
         We are on UCCX 7.0(1)SR5 cluster. I would like to know if there is any maximum limit on the number of JTAPI triggers that can be associated with a single UCCX application/script. I have this requirement where in I will have to create 80+ JTAPI triggers and associate all of them to a single UCCX script. Will there be any impact on the performance with this approach?
    My second question is- is there a limit on the number of sessions that can be associated with a single UCCX application?
    Thanks,
    DM

    There is no need to have multiple chained CTI Route Points. The call should flow through UCM as follows:
    Arrives from a PSTN gateway with a specific DNIS value per number. In most cases carriers will not give you the real toll-free number that was called but either another DNIS value representing each toll-free number; or, a portion of it such as the last four digits.
    In many cases - but not necessarily required - customers then use translation patterns to change the provided value into a value that the CCX CTI Route Points are configured in. For example, if the provider is sending you a DNIS of 84XX of the toll-free calls and you want the CTI RPs to be 71XX, you can create a translation pattern that does exactly that.
    You create a single trigger (assuming all the toll-free numbers go to the same script/application) and use a wildcard pattern of 71XX when creating it.
    (More Optional) If the script needs to know the exact toll-free number that was dialed, you can use the Get Call Contact Info step to get the called number.
    Otherwise the script wouldn't be aware that you've used wildcards in the route point.

  • On a Mac, can you navigate menus with one handed key strokes like Windows?

    On a Mac, is there anyway to navigate menus with one handed keyboard strokes like you can in Windows? My girlfriend is a graphic designer and switched from Windows to Mac. She misses being able to use the Alt key and make menu selections. On Windows she can press "Alt" and then move through menus and submenus with one hand on the keyboard. When you press "Alt" the first letter of every menu is highlighted. When she presses a certain letter the menu drops down, and the first letter of every submenu is then highlighted. She can then navigate through all the submenus until she hits the selection she wants, all using the left hand on the keyboard. It's very fast and efficient. Can you do something similar to this on a Mac?
    The reason she wants to do this is because when she is in Photoshop, she likes to use her right hand on the mouse with the cursor inside the canvas (sketching, moving layers around) while she makes menu commands with the left hand. It is 10 times faster this way than using the mouse for everything. Hot keys are not the same because you must have those memorized. With the "Alt" key function, you can open a drop down menu, see the choices, and make your selection.
    I have been a Mac person my whole life, and I have to say, it's a pretty awesome function. I really want the Mac to have something similar.

    [Actual studies|http://www.asktog.com/TOI/toi06KeyboardVMouse1.html] have found it is faster to use the mouse to make command activations than using keyboard shortcuts.
    The 20-year-old argument on that web page isn't very convincing. Keyboard shortcuts are certainly faster for experience power users who do the same thing every day. The mouse is faster only for new users or users doing non-repetitive commands every day.
    It is interesting that one of the posts on that page said this:
    I remember one mainframe company in the sixties that came up with the following command-key guidelines:
    Use the first letter of the command word
    If the first letter is already used, use the last letter
    If the last letter is already used, use the second letter
    If the second letter is already used, use the second-to-the-last letter
    etc.
    This is actually very similar to how the keyboard-driven menus work in Mac OS X. The advantage over the Windows method is that when there is more than one command in a menu that shares the same first letter, you do not have to memorize which command uses which letter. You just type ahead until the correct command is selected.
    I would, however, encourage Derek Doublin1's girlfriend to learn the direct keyboard shortcuts in Photoshop. On Mac or PC, for me pressing Command-Option-I is much faster than either the mouse or using the keyboard to drop the Image menu and walk down to the Image Size command.

  • Can't "Open With... Incopy.exe" in InCopy CC 2014 for Windows

    To say I'm frustrated would be being kind to Adobe... I'm really going to try to suppress my sarcasm and criticism at how incompetent Adobe programmers and program managers must be to allow this kind of problem to exist...
    I have some InDesign documents (.indd) that I want to right click on and set InCopy as the default program. After some trial and error, on two systems, I was able to adjust the registry to get this working.  On the third, so far, I've tried:
    1. Reinstalling Incopy - Did not work
    2. Copied the InCopy.exe to WWXXYYZZ.EXE - and while this allows InCopy to appear in the list of "other programs", it won't open. So...
    3. I searched the registry for WWXXYYZZ.EXE and replaced all instances with InCopy.exe (Why I copied it to this weird name in the first place - easier searching of the registry - this didn't work.
    4. Edited the following registry locations to ensure they pointed to InCopy.exe - but every time I change it to this exe, Windows won't open.  I'm sure Adobe would like to blame Microsoft for this, but when EVERY SINGLE OTHER Executable (and even the renamed copy) CAN be assigned to open it using the "Open with" dialog, I'm left believing that Adobe programmers decided not to do something properly in registering the exe with the registry - or registered it in such a way so as to prohibit it from being displayed in that menu for some reason.  SO HOW DO I FIX THIS!?!?!?!
    Registry locations edited (reset to point to InCopy.exe):
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.indd\OpenW ithList]
    "a"="InCopy.exe"
    "MRUList"="a"
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.indd\UserC hoice]
    "Progid"="Applications\\InCopy.exe"

    "InDesign.Document"=hex(0):
    I'll repeat - HOW DO I FIX INCOPY TO OPEN AN INDESIGN DOCUMENT BY SIMPLY DOUBLE CLICKING? (and yes, I do have to shout that!)

    No thanks to the utterly useless folks at adobe, I got this working - I found a registry key that had the previous version of InCopy and once I deleted that, I could now right click and "Open With" InCopy and permanently assign it.

  • How can I open photoshop C3 using keys?

    I remember the days when applications could be opened by pressing a key. Is this possible with OS10.6.7?
    Thank you in advance, j

    If the program has not been quit, you can switch to it easily via the keyboard. Hold down the Command key, then stroke the Tab key. A dashboard-style window will appear. Repeated strokes of the Tab key (with Command still held down) will cycle a selection through each of the active apps; the selected one will have its name highlighted. Once the one you want is the selected one, release the Command key.
    If the item has its icon in the Dock, you can press Fn-Control-F3. This should select, via highlighting (darkening), an item in the Dock, typically Finder. You can then use the Tab key to move the selection from one icon to the next in sequence. Once the one you want is selected, press the Return key. This should switch to that app if it is already running; or start up that app if it is not running.

  • CS5 - Can't "Open With" Photoshop in Bridge?

    I have CS5 installed and I am my defaults for Opening is Elements 8 on my
    Vista machine and "nothing" on my XP laptop.
    When on either machine and I right click an image, Photoshop is NOT an option to Open With.
    If I go to preferences, I can manually set the default, but this is not an acceptable solution as I need my defaults to be something different.
    For example, I need the default for my Nikon RAW files to remain Nikon Capture NX2, but I want the ability to right click and select the application I want to use.
    How to I add Photoshop (or any other application) to the "Open With" List?

    What you see on other programs in the list (aside the default, which is defined for Bridge only) of programs which a certain filetype were openend in the OS once.
    For example (close Bridge / CS) and choose Quicktime as the default program for opening TIF in XP and you will have it in the list after Bridge was started again.
    I'm afraid you need to do that for every application (close Bridge, choose a different default app for opening TIF in the OS, open Bridge again, and so on) you want to have in the list for a certain filetype.
    When done don't forget to change it back to the default program you want to have it opened in the OS, f.e. CS5.
    No need to make an application the default program (uncheck "always use the selected program to open this kind of file") - just say once "open with" and you will find it in Bridges "open with" list

  • What is the maximum number of samples that can be acquired with a single trigger using PCI-6036E DAQ card?

    1. My PCI-6036E card has a FIFO of 1024 bytes in AI. Maximum how many samples can be acquired with single trigger for digitizing a waveform?
    2. PCI-6036E DAQ card has got a AO with 10ks/s update rate? Can I generate a pulsed output with the AO of this card? I need a pulse of, say, 5 V and 1 kHz frequency.

    Giri,
    1.The trigger is usually for enabling the acquisition. I mean, when it is logic zero, you acquire nothing; however, when it is logic one, you start acquiring your waveform,and you can acquire continuously without having to worry about how many samples, unless you want to set your program for doing so. You can acquire continuously by implementing buffer acquisition. Finally, the FIFO that is in the board will not affect the buffer acquisition.
    2.Yes, you can do that! You can generate your 5V signal with that specific frequency, and you should not have any problems, because the freq fits in the update rate.
    I hope this information is helpful.

  • Can't Open with Photoshop on PSD file

    If I right click on a PSD file and say open with Photoshop CS, it opens Photoshop but doesn't open the image. This also happens when I grag a graphic image to the Photoshop CS icon on the dock. If I right click and say Open with ImageReady, it works. Anyone else have this problem? Should I reinstall Photoshop? I can open Photoshop and then do a File->Open to open the image.
    Thanks,
