Can't post on Aperture (or other Discussions)

Hi I was wondering if someone could help me. I just created a login profile, etc. a couple of days ago wanting to join the Aperture and Logic Discussions. I successfully did that.
When I'm in the Aperture and Logic Discussions, I notice that there is no "Post New Topic" button at the top of the page. As a result I can't post topics there. I've tried this on several machines with the same result.
For some reason in this Discussion, I can post (obviously).
Has anyone else run into this - no "Post New Topic" button in Dicussions? Is there something I need to do?
Thanks!

Hi b7AWb3!
You are probably on a Category page.
From the Aperture Category, select a Forum.
For example Aperture Installation, Setup, and General Usage.
On Forums, there is an option to Post New Topic.
Good Luck!

Can't post album reviews

I'm sure this will be something simple I'm missing but I've tried to write reviews of a couple of purchases but the link keeps taking me back to the album's page with no input box - I also can't rate the album - any ideas why?

Hello,
I have the same problem since a while, I can't post purchase reviews, rate others or even rate apps.
The link keeps taking me back to the upper album tracklist, no input box appears.
Any hint, please?
P.S. Ping is active and running fine.

I tried to post to Apple.com > Support > Discussions > User Tips Library > User Tips Library and I was denied permission.No, you're not allowed to post there. Instead, if you wish to make a contribution, you should post to Apple.com > Support > Discussions > User Tips Library > User Tips Contributions . Only the Hosts can move approved tips to the "Apple.com > Support > Discussions > User Tips Library > User Tips Library forum.
It's unfortunate (or maybe it's designed that way) but the link from the main Discussions page takes you directly to the "approved" tips forum, bypassing the "User Tips" Category.
Why can I only post to Unix board?I'm sure you can post to the vast majority of the other forums listed on the main Discussions page.

I can't post to iphone discussion?

I wrote a really detailed description of my problem but can't post (do not enter symbol and greyed-out Post button). Why?

That's the post. On my end, all indications were that my posts could not be submitted. This hasn't been a good experience for me, either with the backups or the discussion forum.
Thanks stedman1; I need to take a break from all this and enjoy some fresh air without the smell of Apple in my flaring nostrils!

HT2534 If only it were that simple. Many of us have no "none" available. Since the guy on the other discussion clearly had no desire to help anyone, I thought I'd ask here instead... can anyone help with this?

Open iTunes and navigate to the app store. Select a free app to download. A simple way to do this is to scroll down to the top free apps box on the right hand side, hover your mouse over the first item and click on the free button that appears when you hover over it.
A pop up will open asking you to sign in with your Apple ID click "create new account", click continue to create your account. Check the box to accept the store terms and conditions and click continue.
Enter your email address, password, security question, and date of birth, click continue. Now, you will be asked to provide a payment method. Note now that the last option says "none".

Re: How can I post an image?

Merging the hints, how does this look?
Showing an image in Apple Discussions requires two things.
1. The image has to exist and be accessible from a working server somewhere.
2. Then the image can be referenced in html and will appear in your post.
1. To achieve the first you need to register on one of the many free web photo hosting sites. An example of one would be Flicker. (If you have your own web site you can of course host your picture there.)
Having taken a snapshot of the thing in question (the image), perhaps by using the Grab application on your Mac, you upload the image to your photo hosting site.
You'll then need to get its URL from the site. It might be easy to see or you might have to read the site's FAQ for those details, as there are differences between sites.
Easier still, if you are using Safari or Firefox right clicking (or Control click with a one button mouse) on the uploaded image will copy the link for you.
It will have a form like this:
http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2186/24541163585b68ff68b8s.jpg
When you find it, open a new tab in your browser and paste it into it, to check that it displays and is therefore the correct URL for the image.
2. To add this image to your post here on Apple Discussions, place an exclamation point before and after the link, illustrated as,
!http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2186/24541163585b68ff68b8s.jpg!
which produces the image in the post.
!http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2186/24541163585b68ff68b8s.jpg!
An alternate html format is;
<img src="http://source.address.of.image.jpg"/>

Can't post to online classrooms

WiFi and 3G are connecting just fine for web but I am unable to post to discussion boards in my online classroom. At first I was able to post using wifi but after chatting with Aplle support I can't post using wifi either. I bought the ipad to replace the heavy laptop on the go. Now.....

Man, I'm sorry I'm just now reading this. If HPcrimson see's this try this way to post from your iPad. When you select reply, a new screen will come up. Then select (if you have this) the icon on the reply toolbar for "paste as plain text". Then you should see a small reply text box come up. Type your message in there and then select post. If you have a spell checker enabled, there will be a bit of a pause. After a bit your message will be posted. Recheck your thread and you should see it. Hope you see this message and good luck your in studies.

Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions.
This happens when you first navigate to a page that you may not access before you are logged in. For some reason Apple Discussions tells you you must log in. Then you log in, and then you are directed back to that 'you must log-in' page. Don't worry just carry on as normal - as you have done hear. I hope this is on the Moderators wish list as I have queried it before.

Not able to post a new topic to Discussions Safari Safari for Mac

Hi, I'm new to Apple Discussions, but not new to posting to forums.
Currently I'm not able to post to Discussions>Safari>Safari for Mac. I can login, view all post threads, create and save a draft, preview the draft, but cannot post the draft to Discussions>Safari>Safari for Mac.
However I am able to post to a different category; Discussions>Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger>Using Mac OS X Tiger. See posting "This is a test. Please do not reply to this post".
When I try to post to Discussions>Safari>Safari for Mac I get pushed to another web link and system message as follows;
http://discussions.info.apple.com/backsoon/discussionstempaway.html
We're sorry, Apple Discussions is temporarily unavailable. We'll be back soon.
Until then, please visit http://www.apple.com/support
Currently when I open the category Discussions>Safari>Safari for Mac, I see an error message that reads;
Error
An error in the system has occured. Please contact the system administrator if the problem persists.
I have searched for a link to "contact the system administrator", but cannot find it.
I get around the Safari for Mac category error message by clicking on 'next' and it then displays the current threads.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is a bonus issue I'd like to resolve asap, to get to my original issue with Safari 4.1 crashing.
Thanks to those who can help!

You're Welcome cuzindave!
That's odd. It was OK before but when I checked again it was down and now it's back.

On imac 10.6.8 using current version of Aperture. How can I access the Aperture Library on my external hard drive that I use with time machine for backup? I can only access the application but not the library..

On imac 10.6.8 using current version of Aperture. How can I access the Aperture Library on my external hard drive that I use with time machine for backup? I can only access the application but not the library..

Go into Time Machine (the program not the bundle on the extrnal disk) and using Time Machine's browser go to the Folder where the library lives. You could look in the library bundle in Time Machine but that won't really tell you much,
If you want to make sure it truely has backed up your library you will need to restore it and open the restored library with Aperture.
If all this still has you confused you need to read up on Time Machine in order to get a feel for how it works, for what it is doing and for how to restore files from it.

How can I migrate an Aperture library from an external HDD with Mac OS Extended (Journaled, Encrypted) format?

How can I migrate an Aperture library from an external HDD with Mac OS Extended (Journaled, Encrypted) format?
I used to store my pictures on an external hard drive using the latest version of Aperture. Now I tried migrating my Aperture library to Photos. However, after a short moment an error message popped up telling me that "Photos was unable to make a copy of your library before preparing it. Photos does not have the necessary permissions...".
My external HDD doesn't need any permission repairs nor is the system prohibited to read from or write to it.
Thanks for any advice in advance!

My guess is that the encryption is the problem for the new app.

How can I attach j-pegs and other documents to an email unopened and stop each them taking up a whole page of my email ?

How can I attach j-pegs and other documents to an email unopened and stop each them taking up a whole page of my email ?

In addition to the last poster's suggestion - just so you know, it also depends on the email program the recipient uses as to how they will see any attachments - for instance, when I am using my Yahoo Mail, I am absolutely unable to view any attachment within the browser window - Yahoo forces me to download it; there is no way for me to check it (like a preview) to see if I want to download it or not.
And, FWIW: the window shown in the screenshot does not show on my version of Mail 5.1 (which is the latest for 10.7.2); the only one similar shows when viewing a message received with an attachment, not while sending one. So that must be a different version.

How can you post comments during signal aquisition?

How can you post comments during signal aquisition? For example, while acquiring your signal, you want to post a comment which the temperature reads at "30 seconds" from your relative start time (t=34 sec into recording)
I have the LE package where events, alarms, etc cannot be used. Are there other ways that the user can mark an "event" during recording?

Hey hkim,
If you know how long it will be before you want a message to pop up you can simply include a sequence structure and in the first sequence have a wait time of your desired length and have the message pop up and display in the second sequence frame.
Hope This Helps,
