Can't use Calendars, Cards and Books- lost themes?

Apologies if this is the wrong forum but I think this is more a problem with how I installed it rather than anything related to the actual products.
Whenever I click on calendars already created, or on new calendar it keeps telling me that there are no themes installed and that this function won't work until they are- I think this might be because rather than installing the whole iLife 08 suite- (I didn't want the new iMovie) I simply dragged the previous installation I'd done on another mac (I bought a family pack) on to my iBook.
So does anyone know where I'd find the themes or where to install them?

Sri, Theo:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
simply dragged the previous installation I'd done on another mac (I bought a family pack) on to my iBook.
Installing iPhoto that way didn't install all of the necessary support documents, including the themes. Delete the iPhoto application and install iPhoto, custom install to install only iPhoto, from the iLife 08 disk. Then run the iPhoto 7.1.1 and iLife Support 8.1.1 updaters. That will get you the themes back.
Happy Holidays
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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), 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 08 libraries and Leopard. 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.

  • Are iPad Air and iPad Mini Retina both "SIM unlocked" in US? Can I use SIM cards sold in other countries?

    I'm planning to buy iPad Air and iPad Mini Retina during my trip to US.
    Are they both "SIM unlocked"?
    Can I use SIM cards sold in other countries?
    Do I need any treatment or/and application when purchase?

    If you are not concerned about LTE bands (which will be more diverse and hit-or-miss) the only ones that will matter are these...
    3G: UMTS/HSPA/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1700/2100, 1900, 2100 MHz)
    2G: GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz)
    This covers almost all the 2G and 3G standards. You will most likely be ok on 3G and in edge cases, at an absolute minimum you will have EDGE speeds since both US and EU frequencies are covered - blech :-)

  • Can't use credit card

    I can't use credit card to purchase any thing inside itune. Can you please do not block me. Please open it now urgently. Thank you.

    Most of the people on these forums, including myself, are fellow users - you're not talking to iTunes Support here.
    What happens when you try to buy something, does the 'buy' button not work, do you get any error messages ... ?
    If you are getting a message to contact iTunes Support then you can do so via this link and ask them for help (we won't know why the message is appearing) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
    If it's a different problem ... ?

  • Does anyone know of an e-reader app for the iphone that has text to speech capability? I have a Kindle 3G that can read whole pdf documents and books but I cannot figure out how to do it on my iphone 4.

    Does anyone know of an e-reader app for the iphone that has text to speech capability? I have a Kindle 3G that can read whole pdf documents and books but I cannot figure out how to do it on my iphone 4.
    All of the apps I have found on the App store either do not have the text to speech capability or if they have it they will only read a page at a time or simply read the text you paste into their window. I really do not understand what is so difficult about having this feature as Kindle provides it--though Amazon does not make the feature available on its iPhone 4 app.
    Please help.

    thanks. yes i am aware of the VoiceOver feature but it is NOT the solution to my problem. as you said, it is a solution to a different set of issues. i want the text to speech ability because i there are books i need to read but do not have the time to sit down and read them and have become used to listening to them read to me either by a professional human reader or with the text to speech software on the Kindle.
    I think Apple makes the best audio devices but i am really disappointed in this inexplainable shortcoming. if apple can give us siri they ought to be able to design a nice little button that i can push to turn on text to speech while i am in a document, book, magazine or webpage. clearly it is possible as apple has added the "reader" button in safari to have web pages dropped into the reader format.
    thanks for your suggestion though, it is what everyone suggests but it does not address the issue.

    Can i use debit card as a payment method on app store..if not,what else?? in case i don''t have credit card...please help

    I don't think that debit cards are still accepted as a valid payment method - they are not listed on this page and there have been a number of posts recently about them being declined. You could try contacting iTunes support but I don't think that you will be able to use it : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    If you don't have a credit card then are iTunes gift cards available in your country ? They are not available in all countries and they are country-specific (they can only be used in their country of issue), so you won't be able to use those from another country.

    Oh thank god i am not the only one with this problem. It started with me on Saturday (aug 28) and still, no solution.
    I live in the border with the USA so i’ve been using my itunes account with a USA debit card and then it started with that **** declined CC problem =S
    The funny thing is that i’ve been trying to change countries, setting my account to Mexico and it would still say that the CC are declined. Tried 2 USA cards and 2 Mexican cards, no results =S
    Wanna read something funny. I even tried to create a brand new account based in Mexico, with another email address and it still wouldn’t let me, tells me my cards are not valid……..the **** apple!!! i cannot update any app and i just got my iphone 4 on friday last week and i am dying to try new apps.
    So far I’ve sent 2 emails and still no **** solution. At least i am not alone =’(

  • Can I use Calendar "Groups" or views as data sources in PDA Sync?

    From what I can see, you can only use calendars that you are subscibed to and not calendar groups/views that you have created.

    As I understand it you can choose to view them individually or combined.
    When I bought my iPhone and mobileMe I was told to sync to exchange account first as doing it after may delete my other accounts data.

  • I am going overseas to Singapore how can I use my ipad2 and my iPhone without it costing me a fortune. I am in Australia

    I am going overseas to Singapore how can I use my ipad2 and my iPhone without it costing me a fortune. I am in Australia

    iPhone - Locating wireless carriers
    The above will provide carriers in Singapore that you can use. You would get the SIM card from the carrier. Of course if you are somewhere that has WiFi service then you won't need the cellular connection.

  • HT1918 Can i use debit card in itunes store for purchase in india

    Can i use debit card in itunes store for purchase in india

    Debit cards are no longer accepted in the iTunes Store, it seems. The current valid payment methods are listed here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5552
    You can try contacting the iTunes Store and asking if there is any way to use your card, but they probably will tell you that it's not possible.
    http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    Using a debit card in any online service where it stores your card is a bad idea in any case since if someone gains access to your account in the service, they can quickly drain your bank account. Credit cards limit your liability, as do prepaid iTunes cards.

  • Can I use Java Card Development Kit 2.2.1 on Windows XP?

    Can I use Java Card Development Kit 2.2.1 on Windows XP?
    If no, which kit supports XP?

    It is not as strait forward as per say.
    I would like to share some tips that I have learnt duirng my recent experience with Java Card Development Kit 2.1.2 ( It presumed that JAVA SDK and JCDK is properly installed:
    Additonal installation
    - you need to download Java Communicatons API version 2.o for Windows at http://java.sun.com/products/javacomm/downloads/index.html
    - unzip the downloaded file javacom20-win20.zip
    - copy comm.jar and javax.com.properties to %JAVA_HOME%\lib
    - copy win32com.dll to %JAVA_HOME%\bin
    Configuration of Environment
    - Activate System under Control Panel
    - Click Environment Variable button under Advance Tab.
    - Check that JAVA_HOME and JC21_HOME are there under User Variables for user123
    - Create a new enviroment by clicking New button under User Variables and Enter "CLASSPATH" for Variable Name and ".;c:\j2sdk1.4.1_04\lib\comm.jar for Variable Value ( the ".;" is important for the entry and varies according to your JAVA_HOME)
    Modifying %JC21_HOME%\samples\build_samples.bat
    - Next you need to modify the compiler option in build_samples.bat
    - Use editor to look for the portion "Compile Sample" and add "- target 1.1" to every statements here. A sample is listed below:
    %JAVA_HOME%\bin\javac -target 1.1 %JCFLAGS% src\com\sun\javacard\samples\HelloWorld\*.java
    You may proceed to test the demo codes as instrucrted in the User Guide.
    I hope the above will help those who are keen to have a head start in Java Card Developemnet.

  • HT2305 I PURCHASED AN ITUNES CARD FOR $50.00 IN THE USA WHILE I WAS ON VACATION  HOW CAN I USE THIS CARD WHILE I AM IN THE USA.    .......ELLIS

    I purchased an itunes card in the USA while on vacation for $50.00----how can I use the card while in the usa.....Ellis

    You will need to set up an account in the US iTunes Store to use that card, for which you will need a valid US mailing address. Note that the Terms of Use for the iTunes Store state that you will not attempt to use the US iTunes Store from any other country, so you will not be able to buy new items or re-download previously purchased ones from the US without violating those terms. So you may want to reconsider your purchase and perhaps return the iTunes card or sell it to someone who lives in the US.
