Can iPhoto automatically adjust one photo to match another one?

Hi everyone,
I would like to know if iPhoto (or any other application) can do the following neat trick.
Let’s say I have two very similar photos, only differing in parameters like tint, exposure, and contrast for example. Is it possible to have the application compare the two photos and automatically adjust the tint, exposure, contrast, and so on, of one photo so that it looks exactly like the other one?
Maybe no application can do that, but then do you know of any trick to help doing that manually?
Thanks in advance for any much appreciated advice.

iPhoto can't do that and I've not seen or read of any application that can. It would take some very sophisticated analytical software to be able to do that.
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) 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 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: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • How can I (automatically) import new photos of the photostream on my local disc (Mac)? Don't want to use new icloud service. Simply import.

    New Photo app on Mac.
    How can I (automatically) import new photos of the photo stream on my local disc (Mac)? Don't want to use new icloud service. Simply import.
    With iPhoto every new photo was automatically imported and saved on my local disk (with "full resolution" that's what I only need). In the new photo app I have still my photo stream and when I move a photo (drag and drop from the photo stream) to a new album it indicates a (plus). My understanding is that the photo is now copied to my local disk. But when I deleted the photo in the photo stream it was also deleted in the album !?
    If that is the case I can use the photo stream only until I reach the max of 1.000 photos, then I have to delete photos and I will have no copy left.
    How can I "physically" copy a photo of the photo stream to my local disk? I just want to "transfer" all pictures taken with Ipads, Iphones to my central storage on the Mac. Please don't propose to connect it via iTunes (cable) to the Mac.
    Any other suggestions?
    thx

    The amazing device cannot do it because no amazing developer has written an app for it.  There is some interest, others have asked, but i have a hunch that the market is fairly limited, and no developer has jumped at the chance just yet.
    Any sort of tethered approach means try to feed the material to the pad thru the cck.  Which means the app would have to use the allowed/existing cck pathway in a manner that does not violate the sandbox rules.  That may be the problem.

  • Looking for a way to move entire pages from one photo book into another photo book.

    I haven't found out how to move pages from one photo book into another. Surely this is possible?
    Also on the subject of photo books: it seems that it is not possible to enlarge the size of a text box. Or has anyone found a way to accomodate more than 1 line of text on a photo book page?

    You can look through some of the different Layouts available.
    Select your page.
    Click the "Layout" icon on the lower right hand of the application window.
    Above it will appear a "BACKGROUND" section and a "LAYOUT" section.
    Immediately below the "LAYOUT" is a drop down menu which will show you all the different options.

  • Place one IDML file inside another one.

    I want to place one or more IDML files into another single IDML "master" file.
    The master file is sort of a template for a site layout. The IDML files I need to embed represent single content boxes with specific layouts. The files for those content boxes are created outside of InDesign with some texts I get from a database.
    To retain those layouts I deemed it best to just place them into another document which is no problem with INDD but just with IDML.
    I managed to link multiple INDD files into the master file in InDesign itself, but can not figure out how to link IDML files. I also found that it is possible to link INDD files into IDML files, just not IDML into IDML.
    I need to be working with IDML as opposed to INDD because I have to be able to manipulate the files in an easy way outside of InDesign.
    Is there any way to link IDML files into other IDML files? Or if not, is there a possibility to convert my IDML files to INDD files without having to use a real instance of InDesign?
    Relevant Lines of code from the master IDML file taken from the Spread.xml file:
    <Link Self="u9f81" AssetURL="$ID/" AssetID="$ID/" LinkResourceURI="file:/path/to/subtemplates/box2.idml" LinkResourceFormat="$ID/InDesign Format Name" StoredState="Normal" LinkClassID="35906" LinkClientID="257" LinkResourceModified="false" LinkObjectModified="false" ShowInUI="true" CanEmbed="true" CanUnembed="true" CanPackage="true" ImportPolicy="NoAutoImport" ExportPolicy="NoAutoExport" LinkImportStamp="file 130505142560000000 1396736" LinkImportModificationTime="2014-07-22T16:50:56" LinkImportTime="2014-07-23T11:42:22" LinkResourceSize="0~155000" />
    If I leave this in and try to open the file in InDesign I get the error message that the linked file type is not supported
    <Link Self="u9f81" AssetURL="$ID/" AssetID="$ID/" LinkResourceURI="file:/path/to/subtemplates/box1.indd" LinkResourceFormat="$ID/InDesign Format Name" StoredState="Normal" LinkClassID="35906" LinkClientID="257" LinkResourceModified="false" LinkObjectModified="false" ShowInUI="true" CanEmbed="true" CanUnembed="true" CanPackage="true" ImportPolicy="NoAutoImport" ExportPolicy="NoAutoExport" LinkImportStamp="file 130505142560000000 1396736" LinkImportModificationTime="2014-07-22T16:50:56" LinkImportTime="2014-07-23T11:42:22" LinkResourceSize="0~155000" />
    If I put this in everything works fine.
    Notes: box1.indd and box2.idml are the exact same files, just saved differently by InDesign. The path to both files is a valid file system path and has full read/write access.

    Thank you for your reply. I already know that it is possible to edit IDML files, which is what I am already doing.
    What I am now looking for is a way to place one IDML file into another one like you are able to do with INDD files.
    Which file format should I use insted then? It must be editable outside of InDesign because I need to be able to change texts and stylings within the file.

    That possibly means you have to have InDesign Server to integrate in your workflow.
    That's the exact thing I am trying to avoid here.

  • I want to import one imovie project into another one.  In other words, I have created a short sequence in iMovie 11 on one computer, and I want to import it into a project that I am working on, on another computer.

    I want to import one imovie project into another one.  In other words, I have created a short sequence in iMovie 11 on one computer, and I want to import it into a project that I am working on, on another computer.  I copied the project files onto a hard drive, and then connected that drive to the Mac that my main project is on, but when I select "import" the files are faint gray -meaning I can't select them.  Help!  I want to transfer a sequence of shots from one iMovie 11 project on one computer, into another iMovie 11 project on another computer.

    Tell me it ain't so!
    I wish I could.  The research you've done is correct.
    Wether you copy and paste or rebuild the Project from the other computer, you're going to need to get your Evnets copied from the other computer.

  • Not able to execute one Java program from another one via. exec()

    Hi,
    I am new to this forum, so I might be asking a very trivial quetion.

    Hi diptaPB,
    Thanks for your suggestion.
    Here is how I tried it again, but not getting the desired output:
    Class Pr looks like below -->
    class Pr
    public static void main(String a[])
    System.out.println("hi from process");
    When I run 'Pr' from command prompt, i get the desired output:
    D:\batchwe>java Pr
    hi from process
    However, when I call 'Pr' from another program Ap2.java, it seems that it does not call 'Pr':
    class Ap2
    public static void main(String a[]) throws Exception
    Runtime rt=Runtime.getRuntime();
    Process p=null;
    String[] cmd=new String[2];
    cmd[0]="javac";
    cmd[1]="Pr.java";
    p=rt.exec("cmd");
    D:\batchwe>javac Ap2.java
    D:\batchwe>java Ap2

    Looking forward for your help.

  • My MacBook was stolen and I am curious if the hard drive can be transferred from my stolen Mac to another one and the thief still have access to my personal things such as photos?

    My MacBook Pro was stolen recently. I have the Find My Device app on but if the thief doesn't connect to wifi can he still access my photos? Also, can he switch my hard drive into a different computer/Mac and still have access to my photos, iTunes, iCloud, passwords, etc?

    He can do whatever he chooses now that he has the Mac. Including removing the drive from it (or just accessing it normally). If he is experienced he will know how to reset the password or create a new account on it.
    You should be worrying about all the personal data, are your credit card numbers on the machine, bank accounts, charge accounts. All are now compromised.

    I got the iphone 5 six months ago.

Or will they not give me another one seeing I already got a new one? I've had the phone for six months and the lock button has already broke twice.

  • How do I copy an image from one Keynote presentation to another one?

    I have a previously saved presentation on Keynote in iCloud. I created it from my desktop at work. Some of the images I used for the presentation I want to use again in another presentation, onlh this time I am working off my laptop and don't have the same access to those images. Is it possible to copy/paste images from one Keynote presentation into another? I can't even seem to click on the image and save it.
    Any suggestions?

    Clicking and dragging does not work.
    Click on the image and Copy and Paste
    or
    Inspector > Metrics > File Info > click on the icon of the file and drag it to your desktop
    You can then drag that file back in wherever you want.

  • Migration of Planned Orders from one SAP system to another one

    Hi,
    A quick help needed.
    We are migrating SAP data from one SAP system to other due to business split. Regarding PP data, can Planned orders be migrated as it is from one SAP System to another? What is the impact if we do so?
    Appreciate your response.
    Kind Regards,
    tanuji

    hi ,
    As suggested , you can propose to migrate only Firmed Planned orders from SAP  to SAP system .
    How to acheive it ?
    You can use below BAPI to extract details of planned order from Table PLAF and upload in TARGET SYSTEM
    BAPI_PLANNEDORDER_CREATE
    Please note  newly created Planned order in Target system would not have BOM EXPLOSION and Scheduling .
    If need , Make a BDC recording as a add on step to explode Bom and Schedule by clicking those icons in Planned order .
    Technical Team can do this .
