Can't add files in 10.4.1 and keep on an external source

In 10.3.x I added many TV shows to iTunes but kept the files on an external NAS drive (files NOT copied to iTunes folder)
In 10.4 and 10.4.1 this no longer works. Existing 'imports' are fine. If I add new files the importing takes ages and then itunes won't restart unless the NAS in unplugged.
Adding the same files but electing to copy to iTunes folder is fine however.
I rolled back toa previous library and "reimported" folders previously added, this was fine. It;s only with new content that there's a massive problem

My problem originated from the fact that I have upgraded to LION.
My old Itunes library was still saved in a folder called previous systemd. (wel done software devellopers).
I have dived up my iTunes books and refreshed my knowledge and now in advanced settings of itunes specified the path to the library in this folder and have my whole 63 gig library back.
I have also a new program called PowerTunes and with this program I can make iTunes finding every music file or folder on my computer.So instead of me adding things in Itunes which for some reason is difficult now I let my new program find every piece of music ever installed on any dik connected to my computer.

Sending a file as an attachment to an email involves setting the correct MIME type and headers. There's a brief tutorial here: http://webcheatsheet.com/php/send_email_text_html_attachment.php.
Also, you need to use the same name as in your form. In the script you have shown here, the name of the file field is strresume, but your processing script uses this: $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']. It should be this: $_FILES['strresume']['name']

How can I convert files in Aperture to jpegs and keep the file large

I want to upload files into istock photo and they must be as big as possible but in jpg format. I end up exporting tiny little things going from 8mb to 300kb. How can I do it? I even tried going into CS3 but that only allowed me to convert to tif. I would appreciate any help - especially if it is simple!

Go to File >> Export >> Export Version(s)
In the resulting dialog box you'll find a drop down called Export Preset with a list of presets. One of them is JPEG Original Size. That should do it for you.
Also you can choose Edit at the bottom of the preset list and modify an existing preset or create a new custom preset.
BTW: the reason you couldn't do it in Photoshop is that you need to convert it from 16bit to 8bit before you can save a JPEG. That command in Photoshop is under Image>>Mode.

I can't add 2 playlists to my ipod and keep them separate, always merge

let me preface this with I am new to ipod/itunes. i loaded a fair amount of music on itunes, and created several playlists. i have one playlist that is really fast music for cardio and another that is harder rock for weightlifting. initially, i was able to load roughly 40-45 songs from each playlist, with the two groups staying separate. i decided to change the songs after a few months and now when i load music from the two playlists, they always merge. i am extremely frustrated and want to find a way to keep them separate. any help greatly appreciated.

Positive, the 1st and 2nd Generation Shuffles only do one playlist.
You can put them in the order you want to load in iTunes and then sync but there have been reports of a problem with getting the correct order. Make sure your firmware on your Shuffle is up to date.

What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running on? Have you updated 12 to 12.1 Update using an opened project's Help Menu/Update?
If not, please do so.
Please clarify "Can't add files filmed in 1080/60i to Premiere Elements 12."
Are you importing the 1080 60i into the project using (Expert workspace) Add Media/Files and Folders/Project Assets?
If so, are you getting an error message inside of the video appearing in Project Assets?
Are you setting the project preset manually or letting the program do that task automatically?
What is the project preset?
(See Edit Menu/Project Settings/General).
The project preset should be, for your 1080i...
NTSC
AVCHD
Full HD1080i30

Since your camera appears to be producing AVCHD.mov files, do you have the latest version
of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements 12/12.1?
The answers will be in the details. Please review and then let us know the details and results
based on the above.
Thank you.

Can't add Files to AME CC anymore.

It worked fine - i didn't update or anything. Just stopped being able to add Files to AME. Drag and drop not working / Files appear greyed out in Dialouge.
What could be wrong?
OSX 10.8.5

This sounded first a bit like : "have you tried turn it on?" But you made me check anyway - and i found the problem: My layout suddenly changed - instead of "Queue" i had "Watch folders" as my main window. Now, you can't import single files into that of course.. not by double clicking, not by clicking the +, and definitely not by drag and dropping

Can't add files or file aliases to the dock

Hi Wagnerian, Welcome to Apple Discusswions.
When adding files or folders to the Dock, they must go to the right side of the hairline (the same side that Trash is on).
If this what you are doing and it still doesn't work navigate to /Users/YourHome/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist and delete that file. then log out and back in or restart. (You'll have to reset your Dock the way you like it)

How can I add a person to an event (and send that person an invite) without resending the meeting invitation to all participants?

How can I add a person to an event (and send that person an invite) without resending the meeting invitation to all participants?

Apple doesn't make it easy to do what you want. However, here's how I do it.
Select the photo you want to move and create a new Event for it via the Event ➙ Create Event menu option.
In the Event mode select the new Event with the one picture and drag it onto the Event you want to move the photo to.

I have a G4 Quicksilver that no longer works, but the hd may still be good. How can I get files off the G4 hd and onto my new iMac?

I have a G4 Quicksilver 2001 that no longer works, but the hd may still be good. How can I get files off the G4 hd and onto my new late 2013 iMac?

Also, how do I boot the G4 into FireWire Target Disk mode?
First, the G4 must be able to start to use FWTDM. If it can start, hold the t key at boot until you get a "screensaver pattern" that looks like this:
If the G4 is attached via a FireWire cable to a newer Mac with a FireWire port, the G4's hard drive will appear on the other Mac's desktop just as if it were any external drive. A USB cable won't work for FWTDM.
Just wondering if the drive in my G4, which I believe may be an ATA drive will also work in an enclosure for a SATA drive?
No. ATA (actually "PATA" or "IDE") and SATA are different interfaces. PATA external enclosures are now very hard to find. You best and least expensive option is the adaptor that BDAqua linked. One of its connectors is for PATA drives.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I assume you taken the step of restarting the laptop.
Have you checked your security software is allowing access for iTunes, which security software are you using.

Thanks for the answer Linc, but how do I check to make sure the back-up process is working if I don't think I need to restore?
Create a test file with Text Edit (or any other program) and save it to your desktop.
Run Time Machine from the menu bar.
When the Time Machine icon in the menu bar stops spinning, drag your test file to the trash.
Open Time Machine and go back 1 page. You should see your test file on the desktop.

Can I move the default location of the iPhoto library to an external source, leaving a preview image on my main HDD? Do I need to move to something like Apature to do this?

Can I move the default location of the iPhoto library to an external source, leaving a preview image on my main HDD?
Do I need to move to something like Apature to do this?
I currenlty have a NAS which holds all my images.

Yes you can, but you really, really don't want to.
You can store your photos on the External and have iPhoto link to them in that location. It's called having a Referenced Library.
In this scenario iPhoto creates an alias to the files in the Library and that's why you don't want to do this. Aliases work fin when everything is on the same volume or disk. However, if the alias points to something on another disk or volume and something in the path to the file changes, then the alias is broken. That means you could find yourself fixing each alias for every single photo in your Library, one at a time if something goes wrong.
And heaven forbid you would ever want to move the files to another disk.
See why I say you really, really don't want to?
Also note, that your edited photos would still be on the internal HD as they are always stored in the Library.
Aperture, on the other hand, can deal with this scenario quite easily, and has tools to reconnect to the original should the link be broken

When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page.

When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page. I don't want to have to check off an additional 5 or 6 attributes each time I print out contact information. Is there a way to change the default setting for printing lists, so it is not just "phone," "photo," and "job title?"

I have a user who wants to do this same thing. I did not find any way either to default the attributes to anything other than what you see the first time. Seems like such a trivial thing, hard to believe they do not allow it. I did find a program for this called iDress but I can't seem to download it from any links on the Internet. Not sure if it is free or not, but it was recommended by a link on the Mac support site.
