Changing camera model showing in the Dock on the iPhoto icon

Hi, something that has been bugging me for over a year, I at one time had a Canon G3 camera and this is what is showing in my dock area on top of the iPhoto icon. I now have a Nikon D70, it would be nice if I can get this in the place of the G3. How do I get this all in order?
Cheers, S.

Turn on your camera. If your camera needs to be set to a certain mode to transfer photos, do so now (check your camera manual if you're not sure how). The camera (or more precisely, its media card) appears on the Desktop as a mounted volume.
As I was using a card reader the iPhoto icon holds my old camera model, plugging my Nikon directly from the camera changes the iPhoto icon to the my Nikon model. Too easy.

  • For which camera model is Aperture the best RAW converter?

    Most of you will agree that Aperture's workflow can hardly be beaten. Most of you will also agree that there is indeed some potential for further improvement concerning support of different camera models and in the over all image quality of the RAW conversion engine.
    Reading the numerous postings I get the idea that many people believe to get at least slightly better results when doing the RAW conversion with some other software than Aperture.
    Speaking for my own experience with the Olympus E-1 (which is on the list of fully supported DSLRs) the results from Adobe PS CS2/ACR or Lightroom with seperate tools for sharpening and noise reduction (if necessary) are noticeable superior to what I can get from Aperture - but I am sure that the situation will be better with other camera models.
    So who of you is totally happy with what Aperture squeezes out of his RAW files and what camera do you use? Have you done comparisons with other RAW converters to be sure Aperture does the best job?

    I currently use a Canon 20D and a Canon 1Ds MKII for my work. I am happy with the conversion results for both cameras. I have use Capture One Pro for my conversions in the past. However, with Aperture's workflow and RAW conversion capabilities, I am using it fulltime.
    I really don't think that Aperture's RAW conversion is currently that bad, and I think it will only get better and better with time. To be blunt, I think that most complaints about the rendering quality of Aperture are a bit over-hyped. In fact, I would even say that in many cases, it's end-user error or system configuration that results in poor image quality.
    I would not have said this prior to version 1.1.2, but Apple has managed to greatly improve the rendering quality.
    Just my two cents.

  • Seeing multiple iPhoto libraries when I click on the iPhoto icon in the dock?

    I can't figure out why I am seeing multiple iPhoto libraries when I click on the iPhoto icon in my dock.  I am running Lion on an early 2008 MacBook Pro (4 GB RAM), and when I click and hold on the iPhoto icon in the dock, it brings up a dialog box.  From top to bottom, this is what I see:
    iPhoto Library
    iPhoto LIbrary
    iPhoto Library
    Options
    Show Recents
    Open
    I can't figure out why it shows three iPhoto libraries when I only have one on my computer.  I've tried deleting the icon from the dock and then putting it back in the dock, but it still shows three libraries for some reason.  If I search for iPhoto in spotlight search or in finder, it only shows one iPhoto (in the applications folder).  Any help on how to resolve this weird issue would be much appreciated!

    I have the same issue.  I see four iPhoto libraries when I right click on the iPhoto icon in the dock, but I only actually have two libraries.  The other two simply do not exist on my computer.  And when I click on the libraries that do not exist, obviously nothing happens.  In the image, only the bottom two libraries are actual photo libraries.  The top two do not exist.
    I have relaunched Finder, restarted the computer, and even restored the entire computer from my Time Machine backup.  Nothing changes.  No matter what I try, the non existent iPhoto libraries continue to be present when I right click the iPhoto icon in the dock.  BTW, there are only two iPhoto libraries in the pictures folder.
    This is very frustrating and annoying.

    How do I get rid of those two non existent iPhoto libraries from the Dock.

    this happened after i hard shutdown with some multiple programs running which froze everything after powering back up the blue folders showed up
    how do i safely remove these folders?
    i imported 3 sets of photos and in the background processes were running which froze everything then i forced shutdown by holding down the power button.

  • Iphoto notification showing on the iphoto app icon for no apparent reason

    I can't get rid of the Iphoto notification showing on the iphoto app icon.  It shows "1" yet I have no accounts set up and therefore no photostream switched on.  The photo library is empty.   Any ideas?

    This is going on for me, and I've done this:
    http://i.imgur.com/ePrfAGP.png
    to fix it, with no results.  I'd like control over that icon, as my OCD is making me keep it out of the dock.  I know I can check on photostream to remove the icon, but I'd rather not have to.

  • My iphone doesnt want to start.all it shows is the apple icon.nothing more.i have tried holding the home button together with the lock button.what can i do .thanks

    my iphone 4 doesnt want to start . all it shows is the apple icon.i have tried holding the home button together with the lock button. nothing seems to work . please help.

    Plug the iPhone in with the Wall Charger. Then while plugged in do the Reset again, hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone Restarts. This usually begins to happen in less than 20 seconds time.
    If you this does not work you can try to Restore the Firmware on your iPhone. If you decide to do this, connect your iPhone to your computer with iTunes open. Hold both the Home and Power buttons until the iPhone is detected by iTunes in Recovery Mode, this takes about 20 seconds time. Restore your iPhone.
    If this does not work, you can try to Restore the Firmware on your iPhone in DFU Mode. Connect your iPhone to your computer with iTunes open. Hold both Home and Power buttons for exactly 10 seconds, release the Power Button and keep holding the Home Button until iTunes recognizes the iPhone in Recovery Mode, about 20 seconds more time. Restore the iPhone.
    If this does not work and you have Warranty or AppleCare Coverage take your iPhone to Apple for resolution of the problem.

    As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?
    If it does then your current library has been damaged and should be repaired: apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start
    with Option #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.

  • TS3899 I have an iPhone 5 and it shows on the Mail Icon that I have over 3,000 emails to read but the number continues to increase even when I have read the email.  I thought  once you have read an email it drops off the count of "new emails"

    I have an iPhone 5 and it shows on the Mail Icon that I have over 3,000 emails to read but the number continues to increase even when I have read the email.  I thought  once you have read an email it drops off the count of "new emails"

    The received emails should show in two locations:
    1. In the All Inboxes tab of Mail.
    2. The Inbox for each mail account,
    If your emails are not showing in these locations try quitting the mail app and then reset your iPhone.
    Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal.
    To reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
