Creating a library and need the thumbnail to be the first page
Hi all
I have a large library of pdf files on a corporate network. When I open up the directory the view shows the generic .pdf thumnail for each document. I am looking for some way to have the view instead show the first page of the pdf which is typically a cover page. Any elegant ideas out there?
Thanks!

In VISTA in get the 1st page in Win Explorer is I select the icon view. That sounds like what you want.

How the **** do i get back my library i was just using.No didn't save image or restore been using it for months the same way no tells me to choose or create a library and my previous versions don't recover.Please help I just deleted all doubles did allmy artwork Etc..
Do you have a back up?
If not you're into using file recovery software like File Salvage - you can download a free trial and it will scan the disk for you and tell you with might be recoverable. Actual recovery will require that you purchase the app. There may be many files with the same or similar names. Always recover the largest file size.
There are other such apps. Search on Macupdate or the App Store -
Created "2nd" library and previous library is empty
I wanted to create a seperate library to store my Audiobooks on. I did so, then went back and selected "Previous Library" and found that it opens up the same as the new one - empty! All of my old files are still on my computer under iTunes Media Folder. However, the "Previous Library" folder and the new "Audiobook Library are empty. How can I associate these files with the "Previous Library"? Thanks in advance for the help
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss.
It sounds like, as you've been "organising" your photos in the folders, you've got rid of your pics and kept the wee thumbnails that iPhoto uses for display.
So, what did you do with your actual photos? The "fix" is to get them back from where ever you put them.

How to display the thumbnail view of the documents in Sharepoint Document Library
Is there a way that we can have the thumbnail view of the documents that are uploaded in SharePoint Document Library. We have thumbnail feature in Picture Library but can we have the same in Document Library too. Documents includes Words,Excel,PDF.
Any Suggestions PleaseHey Mike,
Good post, I'd be curious to see if anyone has used the GD Picture SDK with SharePoint, maybe there would be some sample code.
Hey Kukdai,
Developing your own solution would potentially provide a better way to accomplish your task, but before setting out on that long road you may want to try the simple customization, it's less time consuming and it will help gauge your customer's interest and
support.
Also, there is a wealth of open source code for SharePoint available on CodePlex, you might want to check that out as well. Here is the linK:

Also, here is an interesting project to consider for your task:

I hope that helps!

i want to create an appleid and i dont have credit card. the instruction that you discribe at the top is not working in itune 11.1.3 and iphone 5s. what should i do
We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
You need to follow, exactly, the instructions on that HT2534 page when creating an account (the instructions won't work with existing accounts) - I've just tried it and I got the 'none' option.
e.g. on my computer's iTunes I logged out of my existing account, found a free app in the store and clicked on its free 'price' :
I then clicked on 'create Apple id' on the popup :
Agreed to the terms, filled in my details, and got the 'none' option on the payments screen : -
I created a publisher file, saved it as a pdf. The problem is I created it landscape and it only shows portrait cutting the sides off my document.
Sounds as if you used Microsoft software to make a PDF. If so, and you didn't use Adobe Acrobat ($$), then you need to get help with Publisher -- Adobe Reader only shows what you make.

I created a theme and a slideshow in iDVD. The theme (intro) plays looped in the preview, but does not go on to the slideshow. How do I "un"loop it?
Perhaps someone on this forum has done what you are asking and would be more help than me.
I think it could be done, but you'd have to do some fiddling around. The concept is to make the iDVD theme part of your iDVD or iMovie created slideshow, so that it will play as part of the slideshow.
I don't know if this will work, but if I were experimenting I would try creating an iDVD project with just the theme in it, and then save that to your desktop as a disc image. When you click on the icon of the disc image you have just created, you will see a Video_TS folder. Open that and you will see a file containing the letters VOB. Open that file.
You need to convert that VOB file back to DV or Quicktime Movie which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need the free download MPEG Streamclip:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/mpegstreamclip.html
but you must also have the Apple mpeg2 plugin :
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/, which I believe costs about $20.
Open MPEG Streamclip and drag the VOB file to its window. Go to the MPEG Streamclip file menu and click on Export to DV.
After the export is done, you will have a DV file containing the iDVD theme. I would try adding that clip as your first entry in your slide show, assuming that you are running iDVD7. (You can't add a movie to a slideshow in iDVD6.) When you play your slideshow hopefully it will play the DV clip containing the theme, then seamlessly followed by your slide show. If it doesn't, try instead exporting the VOB file to a Quicktime Movie, and then try to add the Quicktime movie to your slideshow.
You might be able to do this easier if you created your slideshow in iMovie instead of iDVD. You could make an iMovie with the iDVD theme clip as the lead clip, and then share your iMovie project to iDVD.
Good luck with this. As I said, perhaps someone else has an easier way to do this and will chime in. -
I am trying to delete songs from itune 11 library and i want it to delete the song from my hard drive as well. All my songs are in the music folder but not in the itunes folder. itunes did not prompt me to move file to trash nor is there an option to remove file to trash bin. How can i delete songs from both the itunes and hard drive at the same time?

could it be in the itunes folder or does it have to be in the itunes media folder, which is within the itunes folder??
A Espinoza,
The iTunes Media folder is set in Preferences > Advanced, and is the key to most iTunes folder organizational activities. So I doubt that the automatic deletion will work for files that are somewhere else within the folder structure.
However, I have not experimented with that issue in quite a while, so you are welcome to give it a try in iTunes 11. -

iTunes always quit with the error message "
itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close, sorry for the inconvience. " Uninstalled and re-installed many times, but the issue still persists.Generate another of those error messages and click the "Click here" link in the error message box. What modname and modver are showing for the error? (Precise spelling please.)
If the error is a BEX and thus doesn't show an modname or modver, let us know what P1 through P9 items are showing for you instead. -

I have seven(7) podcasts on my iPhone 4 that iTunes will not delete. iTunes copies them from the phone to the library and will not delete them from the phone when deleted from the library. I have replayed the podcasts over and over and they still won't delete. Podcasts are WSJ Tech briefings.
This happens to several of my podcasts whenever an updated iOS comes out. You can delete the episode directly from the phone by swiping it from left to right. That seems to fix the issue (they drop off the phone and dont reappear on iTunes). It's as if iTunes stops tracking the play count for some shows.
Hope this helps! -
The photos in my IPhoto have all become mini-thumbnails and I can't open or edit them. When I print the image it comes out normal size. How do I get the thumbnails back to the standard size and be able to work with the photo files?
What version of iPhoto and system are you running? On the guess that you're running the latest iPhoto, 9.4.2, Try the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the thumnails, Option #2.
2 - It may take 2-3 attempts so don't give up after only one attempt.

I have an iMac4.1 and my iPhoto is very slow and the thumbnails correspond to the wrong pictures. How do I fix this? Or is my iMac too old? Will getting a new iMac solve this problem?
I realize is only 512MB of memory but I want to make sure that a new iMac will solve this problem. Can the new iPhoto handle 10GB or more of photos? Or do I have to go to Picasa anyways in which case I can buy any computer to do that?The model of Mac is not partcularly relevant, it's the version of the OS and iPhoto that matter.
iPhoto - since 2006 - is good for 250,000 images.
