Can I rename my library with Finder without problems?

I just realised that my library still has the name I gave it when I was trialing the software. Can I rename this in finder or Aperture simply and without any issues or large exercises emerging?

You should be able to change it just fine but do realize that you will either have to double click on the new name, use the option key when starting Aperture, or change the Aperture prefs to open the new name.

  • Can I share itunes library with iOS, without Home Sharing?

    Hi All,
    I have shared my library with my local network via preferences > sharing on my macbook. However, cannot see the shared library in my iOS device music app. Is it possible to access a shared library without having to set up Home Sharing? Perhaps a third party app can do it?
    Cheers,
    Sam

    itunes has two different ways of sharing music
    1) clicking on file , home sharing and turning on home sharing, and entering your apple id. this is required for iphone, ipods and ios devices you are only allowed to share to 5 computers this way. this allows you to import songs to your itunes client  from your itunes server. and each compuer needs to be logged into your itunes account
    2) clicking on itunes, preferences, clicking on share tab, and cicking on "share my library on my local nework " this will not allow itunes libraries to be shared with ipods, iphones or ios devices. itunes cleints will not be alllowed to important songs from your itunes server. however itunes clients do not have to be logged into apple at all. they don't even need to be authorized to play music. they will prompt for your itunes account if you try and play a song that has DRM, but if the music has no DRM they will play fine
    your only allowed 5 computers associated with an apple id. upgrading your music collection to itunes plus or using itunes match #2 might be able to save your precious itunes computer slots
    i have them both turned on

  • HT201365 can i clear my device with find my iphone if the device is switched off

    can i clear my device with find my iphone if the device is switched off

    I'm kinda guessing here, but your phone was stolen and you want to lock it, but it is showing offline? You can send an lock request, and a delete request, but if it is offline, it will not be received until the device goes back online again. If  the device has the latest iOS on it, and Find My iPhone active, then it cannot be activated without your Apple ID and password. It will be a brick. And, if they try to activate, it will connect to the Internet and you will be able to track and the erase will activate.

    Dear ladies and gentlemen!
    I recently received on my notebook, operating system 8.1, the message "Adobe Acrobat is no longer working properly". I also found myself that I can copy from einerPDF file excerpts not without problems in another document. My Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro has released version 9.0.0. Two updates this version is not listed. Please inform me how I can fix this problem.
    Sincerely, Walter Hacksteiner
    mailto: [email protected]

    The first thing I would try is to update Acrobat 9 to the latest version 9.5.5
    The next thing would be to run Acrobat 9 in Windows 7 or Vista or XP Compatibility Mode.

  • Cant access my iphoto library with finder

    Hi everyone,
    i installed ilife 08 and since that, i cant find my photos with finder/pictures. I only have the iphoto logo
    Someone can help me ?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
    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.
    To upload to MySpace or any 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 use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    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. If you're willing to risk database corruption, you can restore the older functionality simply by right clicking on the iPhoto Library and choosing 'Show Package Contents'. Then simply make an alias to the folders you require and put that alias on the desktop or where ever you want it. Be aware though, that this is a hack and not supported by Apple.

  • Premiere CS5 import avi clips without sound. How can I import avi clips with sound without convert?

    Dear Adobe Forum,
    I have the following problem, please help:
    I would like to import avi clips in adobe premiere. All clips have the same avi codec. But unfortunately my adobe premiere does not import the sound of a few
    avi clips. It is wired because about 10 out 70 avi clips which have all the same avi codec does not work with sound in premiere CS5. In the timline premiere import the video and audio line but there are no audio waves in the about 10 avi clips. additonally premiere plays the 10 avi clips in the source monitor without sound. Furthermore when I open the 10 avi files without adobe premiere they have sound, but with premiere there are no sound in the 10 avi clips.
    What can I do, so that I can import all avi files with sound. I do not want to convert each of the avi files because then they have not a good quality and it is to complicated and it takes to much time to convert all files in this video project and in the other video project in my future.
    Consequently How can I import all avi files so that they have immediately sound? Do I have to change some premiere settings?
    Thank you in advance

    Consequently, as you can see, they have both nearly the same information
    Both video clips have the following audio codec:
    AAC
    In the folder where all raw video clips exist there are a few new files with the codec ending: .AVD ("the name of the file".AVD)
    But the 2 video clips mentioned above does not have any files like .AVD oder something else like that. But the first one works and the second one doesnt work.

  • I can´t open my library with the last version

    I HAVE RESET MY COMPUTER WITH THE IPHOTO 7.1.5 VERSION AND MY IPHOTO SAID THAT I CAN´T OPEN MY LIBRARY AND I HAVE TO RETURNED TO THE PREVIOUS VERSION.
    VSN YOU HELP ME
    Ha realizado cambios en su fototeca con una versión de iPhoto más reciente. Salga y utilice la última versión de iPhoto.

    You reinstalled an old version of iPhoto after you updated your library to the newer version.
    Update ALL your software and try again.
    Click the Apple Menu at the upper left-hand corner of your screen and select "Software Update..."
    Repeat until it tells you there are no more updates.
    AND, launch the App Store application located in your Applications folder to see if there are any updates there as well.

  • Can't open existing library with new photos app on iMac 10.10.3

    I have upgraded my iMac to yosemite 10.10.3, with the new Photos app. I have been using iPhoto Library Manager to create and manage my libraries, which I store on an external hard drive.
    Now, with the upgrade and new Photos app, some libraries open and I can access my photos without a problem, but other libraries don't seem to open. Instead, I get the new Photos windows with the demo slideshow, etc.  I'm worried that the photos within the libraries I'm unable to open are now gone.
    Has anyone else experienced this? Any advice?

    How is the EHD formatted?
    If the external hard drive is not formatted OS X Extended (journaled) Photos will not be able to open them.  Actually iPhoto requires the volume to be formatted that way also but doesn't check the format before opening.  Many users have been able to operated on EHDs that were not formatted properly for a while but eventually ended up with a damage/corrupted library. 

  • Can't play MP3's from Finder without Quick Look

    Not really expecting any relevant answers but I might as well try I guess.
    Ok, before:
    __ .mp3
    Center of this icon had a play button, and it was possible to minimize the window while the song played.
    No need for Quick Look or a media player.
    Now:
    Quick look works.
    But as I mentioned, I can't just click a play button in a finder window, as in here with my mouse hovered over the bottom icon.
    I don't understand why the icons are different or how to fix this.

    Ignore the first two, long story. Anyway:
    THEN:
    • Icon had a center Play button.
    • Could play mp3's inside a miminize-able Finder window.
    • No need for media player or Quick Look.
    NOW:
    Those luxuries are now gone.
    Also, Get info shows both icons..
    Mp3's play from here, but unlike Finder, there's no Quick Look to track songs when necessary.
    • This is an external drive.
    • Permissions are fine.
    • I always browse in icon view.
    • Opening with QuickTime / VLC does not help.
    I just want to know a fix without a 3rd party or Terminal.
    This happened before and went away.
