Can I set up Mac OS Yosemite or Lightroom so when a card is detected Lightroom opens?

In prior versions of the Mac OS, I have had trouble finding out how to set it up so that when a camera card is detected, Lightroom opens up. So I had to turn on LR and then put the card in the reader.
I have no loaded iPhoto, but when I plug in a card and LR is not on, Image Capture automatically opens up. I cannot find any place for IC preferences that allows me to turn off its automatically opening up when a card is inserted. When I click on "services/service preferences" in IC, it opens to Mac system preferences/keyboard/shortcuts/ which shows "pictures" shortcuts. Unchecking some or all such shortcuts does nothing. And Image Capture help is almost devoid of content.
In LR CC, I find no place under preferences to make LR the default app to open when a card is detected. And "services/services preferences" in LR leads to the same shortcuts mentioned above.
What am I missing?

This time I lucked on the right Apple discussion and the answer at:
Disable Image Capture app | Apple Support Communities
Apparently, the first time a new camera or card is inserted, Image Capture will open. You can then use this obscure way to change the Mac OS instructions so that for that camera or card, Lightroom will open instead. I just tried - and it worked.
Thanks DdeGannes for your efforts.

You can't merge two iTunes accounts.

I am a US resident but spend several months each year at my house in England. Is it possible for me to download UK iPad apps from the iTunes Store? Right now they seem to be restricted. Can I set up an alternate iTunes account using a UK credit card?

When you go to Starbucks, you'll need to first go to Settings on your iPad and choose Network. You'll see ATTWIFI as one of the available networks. When you click on that to select it, you should be immediately sent to AT&T's sign in page. You just need to check the box that says you agree to their terms and conditions and then hit the Connect button and you'll be online. One warning, however. If your Starbucks is anything like those in Manhattan, be prepared for really slow wifi. It can be a real pain waiting for pages to load sometimes.

How can I set my Mac to only share SPECIFIC folders with Win7

It used to work, but, even though I have set only my Public folder and a specific photographs folder to share with a Win7 PC on my home network, the Win7 machine can see the entire Mac HD.
I followed instructions from here:
http://www.trickyways.com/2011/07/file-sharing-mac-os-x-lion-and-pc-windows-7/
But if I type Run then enter the ip address of the Mac, all the folders appear. Is there a way to limit them to only the two specific folders?
I've mapped the single folder to a drive, so admittedly, unless you go into "Run", you can't see the other Mac folders and drives, but I'd still like to make sure it can't be done.
Thanks

Can you mirror a Mac Mini to an AppleTV 3 when the mac mini is not connected to a display?

Hello, I have an AppleTV 3 connected to my television and a late 2012 Mac Mini that is not connected to a display/monitor/tv, but I use it as my iTunes server to stream media to the appletv . However, I was hoping I could mirror the Mac Mini to the AppleTV in order to see Safari and regular Hulu on the television, but when I try, the picture is scrambled and crashes the mac mini. I turn on airplay mirroring using the Rowmote application on my iphone since I cannot see what the mac mini is displaying.
Additionally, I tried connecting the mac mini to a 2nd hdmi port in the television, while the appletv is connected to the 1st hdmi port, but the image was also scrambled with mirroring turned on. My television also has a VGA port that can connect to the Mac Mini, but I figure the same problem will occur and have not bought the DVI to VGA cords.
Is there a way to mirror a mac mini to an appletv without the mac mini connected to a separate display and if so, what am I doing wrong?
Thank you for the responses, I appreciate any help.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer).
On the basis of the specifications you have given for your set up, mirroring should work.

Can i get a mac mini to boot by default when plugged in?

I am searching very long for a solution for this:
I want my mac mini to start by plugging in or an external switch even if there was no power failure. (which can be set in the energy saver preferences, box checked))
I found a thread which partly seems to concern this question, but i am not sure, may be some members here with more knowledge than me could help me, i would be very pleased:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/12111266#12111266
there i found the following:
"edited /usr/libexec/upsshutdown to send "shutdown -hu now" in both a normal shutdown or UPS shutdown. the -u simulates a dirty shutdown (see man shutdown) so when the UPS does powercycle it brings the Mac back online." posting by Glenn Gerrad
This seems to me as if i could use this change just to simulate dirty shut down indepenedent of having this APC UPS this thread is about, but i am not sure how to start this change for i am not used to work with the terminal and im afraid of ruining something because i am really unsure about the whole meaning of this thread. May be someone experienced can help me what to do?
Thank you !
(at the moment i am using hibernate, which works but i would prefer restart, because i eperienced some strange things which i could avoid by a clean start up.)

1.) Open Automator (Applications) and choose "Application" on startup.
2.) Find "Run AppleScript" in the list on the left side
3.) Drag & Drop that action to the right side
4.) In the text field of the script insert
do shell script "sudo shutdown -hu now" with administrator privileges
5.) Save that application to your hard drive and you can double click it.
6.) When running that application you have to enter your password, and it will shutdown the mac.
7.) You can hard code your password to the program with
do shell script "sudo shutdown -hu now" with administrator privileges password "yourpassword"
But the password isn't encrypted in the Shell Script!
Be aware: double clicking that application will immediately shut down the computer without asking for saving changed files - they'll be lost!

How can I set a value in a field before create when a New button is clicked

Hi,
I am using
JDeveloper 10.1.3.1.0.3984 and
JHeadstart 10.1.3.1 release 10.1.3.1.26
I have one group and there is a detail group under that group.
From main group to detail group there are 3 field relating those groups.
field1
field2
fieldSEQ (auto-generated by database trigger)
These 3 fields are PK.
In the detail group, there is a New button. So, when the New button is clicked, it tries to create the record with those 3 fields value as those are coming from main group. As a result it's giving the duplicate error as that record already exists in the table.
But I don't want to create the record with that SEQ as that will be created in the trigger.
How can I set the SEQ temporarily any no. (-1) before create when the New button is clicked?
Can anybody help?
Thanks

Hello Syad,
What I would suggest is setting the sequence number at the creation of the entity object (so in the create() method) by using the database sequence. This way it will always be unique.
So something like:
protected void create(AttributeList AttributeList) {
super.create(AttributeList);
SequenceImpl sequence =
new SequenceImpl("KCP_SEQ", getDBTransaction());
setFieldSeq( sequence.getSequenceNumber());
If this still does not solve it: please go to the ADF Forum since this problem is an ADF problem, not a JHeadstart problem.

Can't set up calendars in yosemite

Strange problem. I've got a number of iCloud calendars set up, which have been syncing seamlessly amongst my devices. Since upgrading my main iMac to Yosemite, I can't access iCloud calendars. In iCloud preferences, I check the calendars box. The wheel spins and calendars is "setting up", but then the wheel stops spinning and the check box unchecks itself. My calendar is empty on that Mac. If I try to access the account via the preferences within Calendars, it states that it can't activate the iCloud account....the account that is providing the calendars to all my other devices. As noted, I've got the calendars on my phone and iPads, so the data is out there....somewhere. e-mail is working, photos are syncing....everything else in my iCloud account seems to be fine. I just can't access Calendars on one Mac.
I've signed in and out of the iCloud account. I've trashed the calendar libraries. No go. Any thoughts?

How can i set up mac mail to allow read emails on hotmail from online to show as read when i open the mail program?

i use the default mail program on my macs to read my mail. my main account is hotmail. i also read my mail from my iphone, ipad, and internet while at work. I have been able to sync the internet version of hotmail and my iphone to sync so that if i read a message, it is marked as read on my iphone and vice versa. however, i cannot get the sync to function with the mac mail program. when i open the program it still marks all the messages as unread, despite them already being open and read from either the internet version of hotmail, or from my iphone. does anyone know any ways to fix this? thank you

On the Internet Accounts System prefs choose Add Other account…
Pick Mail account.
On the first page where you enter username and password, hold down the Option key and the Create button will change to Next. Click that with Option held down.
You can then manually create the account.

How can I set my mac (and the screen) to not go on sleep mode ?

I just want my mac (and the screen) stay alive for a minimum of 8 to 10 hours, not going in sleep mode (or save screen). Just displaying a web page without doing anything else. In preference system, energy save is all set to «never», but after a while the screen goes to sleep ... ?

You probably have a corrupt .plist file. To fix:
1. Hold down the option key.
2. In the Go menu in the Finder, scroll down to Library
3. In Library, find Preferences
4. In Preferences, find com.apple.systempreferences.plist and drag it to the trash
5. restart
6. you will have to reenter your preferences.
Another option is caffeine: Lighthead - Caffeine

I'm setting up a mac for my kids. I don't want a credit card associated with the app store, but I want access to free apps for them. How do I sign up for the app store without a credit card? I already found a tutorial online, but it is outdated. The option for "none" is no longer there.
