Consolidate Masters - what exactly does this do?

Hi all
I am a relativity new aperture user. every time i import images from my camera, they have the little arrow in the bottom corner to show they are referenced files.
I can fix this by clicking file>consolidate masters and choose to move or copy them.
Forgive the basic-ness of this question, but what exactly does this do? And why can't i import them so they are not referenced files?
thanks again for your help

I suggest you read the manual for this sort of questions, but anyway, here's a quick answer:
-consolidate masters moves or copies your images to somewhere withing your library, making them managed instead of referenced.
-the import dialog, when you connect a card has the option to copy the files to anywhere on your disk, to pictures or to the library (making them managed, and thus not showing the little arrow).
For the advantages and disadvantages of either, check this forum or again, the manual.

  • Getting "IPSEC(epa_des_crypt): decrypted packet failed SA identity check" messages on packets from only one of two far-end sources sharing the same tunnel, the other source works fine. What exactly does this error mean?

    One computer at COMPANY-A is attempting to communicate with two
    computers located at COMPANY-B, via an IPsec tunnel between the
    two companies.
    All communications are via TCP protocol.
    All devices present public IP addresses to one another, although they
    may have RFC 1918 addresses on other interfaces, and NAT may be in use
    on the COMPANY-B side.  (NAT is not being used on the COMPANY-A side.)
    The players:(Note: first three octets have been changed for security reasons)
    COMPANY-A computer      1.2.3.161
    COMPANY-A router        1.2.3.8 (also IPsec peer)
    COMPANY-A has 1.2.3.0/24 with no subnetting.
    COMPANY-B router        4.5.6.228 (also IPsec peer)
    COMPANY-B computer #1   4.5.7.94 (this one has no issues)
    COMPANY-B computer #2   4.5.7.29 (this one fails)
    COMPANY-B has 4.5.6.0/23 subnetted in various ways.
    COMPANY-B also has 9.10.11.0/24, but it is not involved in the issue.
    What works:
    The COMPANY-A computer 1.2.3.161 can communicate via the single IPsec
    tunnel to COMPANY-B computer #1 4.5.7.94 without problems.
    The "show crypto session detail" command shows Inbound/Outbound packets
    flowing in the dec'ed and enc'ed positions.
    What doesn't:
    When the COMPANY-A computer 1.2.3.161 attempts to communicate
    via the single IPsec tunnel with the COMPANY-B computer #2 4.5.7.29,
    the COMPANY-A router eventually reports five of these messages:
    Oct  9 15:24:54.327: IPSEC(epa_des_crypt): decrypted packet failed SA identity check
    Oct  9 15:24:57.327: IPSEC(epa_des_crypt): decrypted packet failed SA identity check
    Oct  9 15:25:03.327: IPSEC(epa_des_crypt): decrypted packet failed SA identity check
    Oct  9 15:25:15.328: IPSEC(epa_des_crypt): decrypted packet failed SA identity check
    Oct  9 15:25:39.329: IPSEC(epa_des_crypt): decrypted packet failed SA identity check
    Oct  9 15:26:27.328: IPSEC(epa_des_crypt): decrypted packet failed SA identity check
    and the "show crypto session detail" shows inbound packets being dropped.
    The COMPANY-A computer that opens the TCP connection never gets past the
    SYN_SENT phase of the TCP connection whan trying to communicate with the
    COMPANY-B computer #2, and the repeated error messages are the retries of
    the SYN packet.
    On the COMPANY-A side, this IPsec configuration has been set up on a 3745,
    a 3725, and some 76xx routers were tried, all with similar behavior,
    with packets from one far-end computer passing fine, and packets from
    another far-end computer in the same netblock passing through the same
    IPsec tunnel failing with the "failed SA identity" error.
    The COMPANY-A computer directs all packets headed to COMPANY-B via the
    COMPANY-A router at 1.2.3.8 with this set of route settings:

    COMPANY-B-ROUTER(M)->
    I suspect that this curious issue is due to a configuration setting on the
    Juniper device, but neither party has seen this error before.  COMPANY-B
    operates thousands of IPsec VPNs and they report that this is a new error
    for them too.  The behavior that allows traffic from one IP address to
    work and traffic from another to end up getting this error is also unique.
    As only the Cisco side emits any error message at all, this is the only
    clue we have as to what is going on, even if this isn't actually an IOS
    problem.
    What we are looking for is a description of exactly what the Cisco
    IOS error message:
    IPSEC(epa_des_crypt): decrypted packet failed SA identity check
    is complaining about, and if there are any known causes of the behavior
    described that occur when running IPsec between Cisco IOS and a Juniper
    SSG device.  Google reports many other incidents of the same error
    message (but not the "I like that IP address but hate this one" behavior),
    and not just with a Juniper device on the COMPANY-B end, but for those cases,
    not one was found where the solution was described.
    It is hoped that with a better explanation of the error message
    and any known issues with Juniper configuration settings causing
    this error, we can have COMPANY-B make adjustments to their device.
    Or, if there is a setting change needed on the COMPANY-A router,
    that can also be implemented.
    Thanks in advance for your time in reading this, and any ideas.

    Hello Harish,
    It is believed that:
    COMPANY-B computer #1   4.5.7.94 (this one has no issues)
    COMPANY-B computer #2   4.5.7.29 (this one fails)
    both have at least two network interfaces, one with a public IP address
    (which we are supposedly conversing with) and one with a RFC 1918 type
    address.   COMPANY-B is reluctant to disclose details of their network or
    servers setup, so this is not 100% certain.
    Because of that uncertainty, it occurred to me that perhaps COMPANY-B
    computer #2 might be incorrectly routing via the RFC 1918 interface.
    In theory, such packets should have been blocked by the access-list on both
    COMPANY-A router, and should not have even made it into the IPsec VPN
    if the Juniper access settings work as it appears they should.  So I turned up
    debugging on COMPANY-A router so that I could see the encrypted and
    decrypted packet hex dumps.
    I then hand-disassembled the decoded ACK packet IP header received just
    prior to the "decrypted packet failed SA check" error being emitted and
    found the expected source and destination IP addresses (4.5.7.29 and 1.2.3.161),
    in the unecapsulated packet.  I also found the expected port numbers of the TCP
    conversation that was trying to be established in the TCP header.  So, it
    looks like COMPANY-B computer #2 is emitting the packets out the right
    interface.
    The IP packet header of the encrypted packet showed the IP addresses of the
    two routers at each terminus of the IPsec VPN, but since I don't know what triggers
    the "SA check" error message or what it is complaining about, I don't know what
    other clues to look for in the packet dumps.
    As to your second question, "can you check whether both encapsulation and
    decapsulation happening in 'show crypto ipsec sa'",   the enc'ed/dec'ed
    counters were both going up by the correct quantities.  When communicating
    with the uncooperative COMPANY-B computer #2, you would also see the
    received Drop increment for each packet decrypted.  When communicating
    with the working COMPANY-B computer #1, the Drop counters would not
    increment, and the enc'ed/dec'ed would both increment.

    The "send" errors appear to be related to the tunnel reverting to a

  • "Prefer Adobe Camera Raw" - What exactly does this do?

    What is the significance of the "Prefer Adobe Camera Raw for JPEG and TIFF"?
    I ran into the following issue:
    I update some of the fields in the IPTC metadata. In particular the title and keywords. I'm running Vista 64, and both changes faithfully appear when I view the file with Vista's picture browser or even in Windows Explorer. So far so good.
    I'm then also uploading the pictures to a Menalto Gallery website. Here is when I run into trouble.
    - If I have Prefer ACR checked of when I update the IPTC then the gallery website does not pick up on the metadata.
    - If I have Prefer ACR checked off when I update the IPTC then the gallery website is able to pick up on the metadata and assign captions on the website accordingly.
    So I'm trying to figure out what the difference between prefer ACR on and off is, and why this would affect reading of the metadata by a third party application.
    Thanks!
    Carlos

    After much digging, I've been able to come up with a rough answer to my own question.
    It appears that when the "prefer ACR" setting is on, Bridge saves older versions of the Metadata (in the XMP IDF, I believe). When displaying a file's metadata, Bridge knows to only display the latest version.
    It would appear that Windows Vista's built-in photo tools are also smart enough to only display the latest version of the metadata. Other tools (such as the Gallery software), however, appear to get confuse and display an older version of the metadata.
    In short, the conclusion I've arrived at is: If you want higher compatibility across applications, turn OFF "prefer ACR". If you value versioning information then keep ON "prefer ACR".

  • Startup Disk Full. What exactly does this mean and what can I do about it?

    I was downloading some TV shows from the itunes store when my computer informed me that my startup disk was almost full and iTunes informed me that there was an error with the downloading because my disk was full. I assume this means that the hard drive memory is full, but I don't know if there is anything more specific I should know. We've had this computer for several years and recently updated to Snow Leopard and iLife 09. I have a lot of music and pictures, and I would rather not have to delete a lot of them to free up more memory space. Are there other things I can do to clear memory space or add more?

    Hi
    +"Are there other things I can do to clear memory space or add more?"+
    Yes. Either replace the internal drive with a much larger one or purchase an externally attached drive (USB or Firewire or both) and transfer all your pictures and movies onto that instead. Either way will involve an outlay of some sort? Another way would be to start backing up less important photos, music and movies onto CD or better still DVD. You do have a built-in DVD Burner of some description. You could use it as that is primarily one of the reasons it's there for. Once you've backed up desired data start deleting it from the internal drive.
    It's important to leave some free space on the drive that contains the Operating System. Not doing so will invariably cause potentially major problems in terms of performance and the proper running of your computer. Think of it this way. If you were to constantly stuff yourself full of food would you be able to function properly or as well as you normally do? Not a great analogy but should give you enough of an idea?

  • What exactly does am.invokeMethod() do?

    Can any one please explain what exactly does this am.invokeMethod() do
    and I would like to ask about the setForwardURL also.
    regards
    Ram

    Hello,
    setForwardURL() method is used to call another page from current page.
    here is the signature of the method..
    void setForceForwardURL(String url,
    String functionName,
    byte menuContextAction,
    String menuName,
    com.sun.java.util.collections.HashMap parameters,
    boolean retainAM,
    String addBreadCrumb,
    byte messagingLevel);
    Sequence of parameters are very important and you should not change it.
    Menu Context - This paramter determines the display of "Menus" on top of the page.
    Eg. In Iprocuremet you would have seen "shopping", "Requistions", "Receipts" etc

  • Apple_Boot Recovery HD partition - what exactly does it do?

    On a new MacBook Air (Mid 2011) there is a partiton on the internal solid state drive that shows up (you can see it by using Terminal, then type "diskutil list" at the prompt) as Apple_Boot Recovery HD  650.0 MB   disk0s3.
    My question is what exactly does this partition provide?  Is the Internet still required to accomplish a "Reinstall Mac OS X"?
    Does the partition just provide a quick way to reach the Mac OS X Utilities pane (see below) when restarting your computer while holding down the Command and R keys?
    If the partition is not on a MacBook Air (Mid 2011) do you reach exactly the same functionality when you are required to download the Mac OS X Utilities pane from the Internet?
    Once at the Mac OS X Utilities pane, would you be required to use the Internet to accomplish a "Reinstall Mac OS X" even with the presence of the the Apple_Boot Recovery HD partition?

    2. You can boot from any Recovery HD regardless of its location provided it's connected. For example you can use the Lion Recovery Disk Assistant -  OS X Lion: About Lion Recovery Disk Assistant - to put a Recovery HD volume onto a small USB flash drive with at least 2 GBs of space. You can install Lion onto a 16 GB USB flash drive in which case the installer will include a Recovery HD partition.
    3. If you boot from the Recovery HD then the reinstallation is by Internet. If you have your own bootable USB Lion flash drive, then the reinstallation will take place from the flash drive. Here's how the flash drive is made:
    Make Your Own Lion Installer
    1. After downloading Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Lion application. After Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing Lion.
    2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    3. Locate the saved Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
    4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility.
    Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
    Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    Check the box labeled Erase destination.
    Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    Drag the InstallESD.dmg disc image file into the Source entry field.
    Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable Lion installer that  you can use without having to re-download Lion.

  • What exactly does the following do?

    i understand what this does.
    return(password);
    but what exactly does this do?
    return (password == null ? "" : password);

    got it thanks.
    is the reason for this to prevent the javabean getter
    from sending a null to a jsp file?
    for example, if the setter is not called before the
    getter, the value is null and the jsp won't like
    this.
    could you also initialize the properties of the bean
    to ""?That sounds like a reasonable explanation. Depending on the implementation, initializing to "" might work fine or it might have unintended consequences if there's anywhere that a null and an empty string are interpreted differently.

  • HT4859 when you go to do this it say that your iPod or whichever device will no longer be backed up to the computer it is currently backed up to, what exactly does that mean? Will i not be able to sync my iPod from that computer?

    when you go to do this it say that your iPod or whichever device will no longer be backed up to the computer it is currently backed up to, what exactly does that mean? Will i not be able to sync my iPod from that computer? Please help me and answer either or both question detailed thanks

    Normally when you sync your device it is automatically backed up to your computer as the first step in the sync process.  When you choose to start backing up your device to iCloud, iTunes stops automatically backing it up on your computer when you sync.  That's what the message is telling your; that you are now backing up to iCloud and not to your computer each time you sync.  You can still manually back up to your computer any time you want by going to the Summary tab and clicking on Back Up Now under Manually Back Up and Restore.
    You can still sync your device as you did before, it just will no longer back up automatically when you do.

  • My iPhone 4s was stolen this weekend and I did the Remote Lock.  What exactly does that do?  Also, if i do the Remote Wipe will that erase all of my data and impede anyone from ever using the phone?

    My iPhone 4s was stolen this weekend and I did the Remote Lock.  What exactly does that do?  Also, if i do the Remote Wipe will that erase all of my data and impede anyone from ever using the phone?

    The remote lock locks the iphone with a passcode that you set. By remote wiping the device it will simply restore it and clear it of all its data, but by doing this it will prevent you tracking it and communicating with it (e.g. remote locking it) in the future

  • What exactly does the AppleCare cover for MacBook Pro with Retina Display?

    I purchased the extended protection plan for my MacBook Pro with Retina Display 15" and my question is what exactly does it cover in what kind of situations (i.e. viruses, damaged ports, damaged charger, etc.)? I want to be able to take full advantage of the protection plan since it was a pretty big whole in my wallet.

    AppleCare covers all the problems you have with your MacBook Pro with Retina display and the peripherals which came with it (your charger) if you have a hardware problem that you didn't cause. For example, after 2 or 3 years and 1000 charges, OS X says that your battery has to be replaced: in this case, you have to pay for the battery, because batteries have got a lifetime, and Unibody Macs batteries have got an average lifetime of about 1000 charges.
    However, if the RAM gets damaged and you haven't done anything to cause it, you will get your computer repaired or replaced for free. AppleCare in a MacBook Pro with Retina display is very important, because near all the parts are soldered into the logic board and repairs are expensive

  • So what exactly does limited to "one app" mean with a Pro account and the new prices?

    So it seems Pro has dropped in price but it is now limited to "one App".
    So what exactly does that "one App" mean?
    Only one tablet version or one phone version for a certain title?
    Or you can have a tablet & phone version including android & iOS for that one title?

    I think that everyone received it just now…
    Changes to Adobe Digital Publishing Suite, Professional Edition
    Effective immediately, all customers who newly purchase or renew Digital Publishing Suite (DPS), Professional Edition, will be able to publish only one app per license of DPS Professional Edition.
    Under this policy change, Professional Edition customers can publish an unlimited number of issues (.folio files) to a single app and distribute those issues based on purchased fulfillment bundles.
    An app created with a single license of DPS Professional Edition can be distributed to any or all of the marketplaces that DPS supports, including the Apple App Store (and Newsstand), Google Play, Amazon Appstore, and the Windows Store.
    In conjunction with this policy change, Adobe is reducing the price of a Professional Edition license to $4,800 USD annually (€3,600/¥480,000) or to $400 per month (€300/¥40,000) and will include 1,000 fulfillments annually. The number of fulfillments included with a monthly subscription remain unchanged.
    This policy does not apply to test or demo apps published using Professional Edition. The one-app-per-license policy applies only to an app published to a supported marketplace(s).
    If you are an agency, upon your renewal or purchase of Professional Edition, you can create only one app per Professional Edition license. If you have multiple clients for whom you are creating apps, either you as the agency or your client must purchase a Professional Edition license for each app published to a supported marketplace(s).
    If you are an existing Professional Edition customer and choose to renew your Professional Edition license at the end of your annual agreement, these changes, including the lower price point and 1,000 fulfillments, apply at that time. These changes do not apply to your existing DPS Professional Edition agreement and take effect only if you renew your license.
    DPS Professional Edition customers can continue to create unlimited Single Edition apps, which is unchanged under the new policy. A Single Edition app is defined as an app that includes one built-in or embedded folio.
    If you expect to publish three or more apps annually, we encourage you to contact your local reseller to discuss pricing for a multi-year Enterprise Edition license.
    Enterprise Edition offers additional functionality and benefits not available through Professional Edition. These include app customization, integration with back-end business systems, in-app marketing tools, targeted content based on user entitlement, and the ability to publish apps privately.

  • What exactly does the global switch command line do ?

    Hello All
    Just foraging in the dark world of APP-V. I have a question which I cannot find answer for through google.
    There are powershell commands to publish an APP-V application globally. What exactly does the global switch do ?
    I understand it makes the application available to everyone on the machine for anyone who logs onto that machine.
    However in the absence of this global switch the application is still available to all users who logon to that particular machine. So what exactly is the reason for using the global switch ?
    Thanks

    Correct, the global switch makes the application accessable for all users logging on to that system.
    This feature is required for some packages, like Office. But it is ofter used for applications used by everyone, like Adobe Reader.
    However in the absence of this global switch the application is still available to all users who logon to that particular machine. So what exactly is the reason for using the global switch ?
    A package can be added to the system but until it is published a user cannot start it. They won't see any shortcuts in their startmenu/desktop/etc.
    So after you added the package to the system, it must be published to a user or globally (every user) to start it.

  • What exactly does the Work Offline option do in a shared review hosted on an internal server?

    Hi,
    What exactly does the Work Offline option do in a shared review hosted on an internal server?
    I *think* it simply disconnects you from the review server. I'm not sure why one would want to do this.
    I'm trying to recommend an offline workflow for reviewers who may not be able to access a shared review hosted on our internal server (for example, while traveling). These reviewers would like to be able to comment on an offline version of the review PDF and then publish their comments when they can again connect to the Internet/internal server.
    It doesn't seem like "Work Offline"  is the right fit for this scenario. Instead, should reviewers save a local copy to their hard drive, comment on it, and then, when reconnected to the Internet, open the local copy, click Reconnect to Server, and then click Publish Comments?

    Thanks, Dave. So for my hypothetical traveling reviewer, it would be reasonable to suggest the following steps for an offline workflow?
    1. Connect to the shared review.
    2. Choose Work Offline from the Server Status menu.
    3. Close and save the review PDF locally.
    4. Comment while traveling.
    5. When back in the office, open the local copy of the review PDF.
    6. Click Reconnect to Server.
    7. Click Publish Comments.

  • What exactly does "out-broadcasting" do?

    What exactly does "out-broadcasting" do? Is it where one network totally knocks out another?
    Some companies are going down different routes, such
    as Netgear's MIMO RangeMax routers, however these are
    not necessarily compatible with Apple Macs and they
    can also stop other people's networks by
    out-broadcasting them (which may be the reason you
    are having issues).
    iFelix
    Is it like cross country driving and two different radio stations come in and out at the same frequency, and not necessarily an overlap (hearing both simultaneously)?
    Is remote RF interference worse than sun spots & solar storms?
    I have a question, which dog wins? I'll clarify: Is it the one with the more watts, the more amplitude, the wider frequency, or the modulating frequency who wins and knocks out the other guy's wireless network? Or is it far more complex, 4-dimensional mapping (the 4th dimension being over time)?
    Thank you,
    Gino

    In order to achieve increased speed, wireless routers based on the proposed 802.11n specification (the first draft of which has been rejected by the consortium for just this issue, among other things), use more of the sidebands on the 2.4GHz band than the individual channels used by either 802.11b or 802.11g (in the US there are 11 such sideband channels allowed). Indeed there are only 2 channels being used in 802.11n routers, and these channels are so wide that they are knocking off 802.11b and 802.11g routers in the area.
