Does anyone else think the new iPhoto is not very good? you can no longer burn photo cd's directly from it!

I do not like the new iphoto, it will not let you burn a photo cd directly from iphoto like it used to. It use to be simple, now it's not. I also think the faces feature is a waste of time and you can't disable it. Overall i am not happy with this new product i had to pay for. I had to update the iphoto i loved because they stopped letting you send your photo's to be printed from it. Apple is failing. It seems they are more after new sorces of revenue then keeping a good product.

Did you have a question?
I don't use the Faces feature, nor the Places one either, but I don't find them a waste of time. There's nothing to disable, just don't use them. Burning to optical media is going the way of the floppy disk. New computers of every brand are showing up now without optical drives. In five years you'll have trouble finding a computer with a built-in drive to buy and in 10, you'll find it hard to get a drive that will play optical media at all. iPhoto 08 was released in 2007 and that means they supported online printing services for 6 years. The installed base of iPhoto 08 is so small now that it's not worth their while.  How you get from your inconvenience to "Apple is failing" is not clear to me. iPhoto 11 is a much more capable application that 08, complete with full non-destructive editing.

  • Does anyone else think the new lion upgrade is slower than snow leapard?

    After upgrading to Lion it seam everything is slower. Opening programs, running processes, working in programs. Yahoo account on foxfire I have to reload the mail about three time to get to it.  Not real happy with the upgrade at this point.

    I have started "top -o cpu" in a terminal and it seems that the process "mdworker" is taking up quite some cpu, together with some other kernel stuff.
    Some searching on the www, and I learned that this could be due to the indexing activities mentioned earlier. It's odd tho. When I dive into it, it seems to be opening files on my Time-Machine device. Is that normal practice?

  • Does anyone feel that the new iPhoto app for the new iPad is slow?

    Hello, Whenever I try to edit to edit photos,which are almost 18MP(megapixel is what i meant) in iPhoto, I notice a lag and sometimes it gets stuck and closes the app. Is it just for me or does anyone else have this problem?

  • Does anyone else think the 'Creating Content in FCS' forum is Forum Bloat?

    I'm interested to see if any of you think that the adding of a new forum one level up from here titled as above will lead to both constant dual-postings and unanswered threads? It seems to me to be nothing more than Forum Bloat. If we allow this, why don't we allow "Hardware Setups for FCS", "Viewing FCS work on video monitor vs LCD monitor" or "Heavy Drinking while Editing - users thoughts?" as forums?
    These are threads, not forums! If we need more forums (say, Beginner and Elitist?), then so be it - but let's subdivide the topics via some kind of system rather than some arbitrarily broad topic?

    I looked at the new forum, but didn't really 'get it'... I guess it will either prove useful in time, or become redundant and have tumbleweed bouncing around.
    Creating Content in FCS? What does that mean exactly?
    And in regard to the points thing... well, i'll stick my head on the line here...
    The amount of times i've read 'Have you tried using the forum search!?' or 'We get asked this question a thousand times a week... use search.' etc etc etc...
    So... off they go and use search... lo and behold, they see a thread title that matches their problem and they investigate... if the person can see a green star next to a certain post they will be assured that that answer will help them.
    Sometimes threads go on for pages and pages before a solution is reached... if somebody uses search, finds that thread and starts slogging through all the posts, surely it's just plain helpful to have that green star there... just to say...Hey! this is the answer!. It's like a little flag, waving.
    ...and if, inadvertantly, some points go to somebody... that's all good in my book. It's just a little nod and a wink to say "Thanks buddy, you helped me out."
    I will happily continue to remind people to mark threads 'solved' and to give people a little star... it adds a sense of completion.

  • Does anyone else think the upgrade to ver 7 is a bit overpriced?

    I purchased the full version bundle of PE4 and PSE 6 and have been looking forward to the new versions - but I only see a $30 price difference between teh upgrade and the new, full version.
    Isn't that a little uut-of-whack, even for Adobe? I just don't know if it's worth it.
    Small rant, over now.

  • Does anyone else HATE the new iTunes Software layout?!?!?!?!?!

    I HATE the new iTunes Softare for Windows! They made it exactly like Windows Media Player! If I wanted to use WMP, I wouldn't use iTunes!!!! But I preferred iTunes over anything else. It was much more user friendly. Now its like the rest of them!!! I hate it!! PLEASE, CHANGE IT BACK!!!!!!

    I love the new version of Grid view but some of the other changes feel like they still need some fine tuning. And I miss cover flow even if I didn't use it that often...
    You can restore much of the look & feel of the previous version with these shortcuts:
    Ctrl+B to turn on the menu bar
    Ctrl+S to turn on the sidebar
    Ctrl+/ to turn on the status bar
    Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
    Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
    Should you feel the need to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and suppporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

  • Does Anyone Else Hate The New Design?

    I think this new nano is too small, they should have just updated the shuffle to this new nano design.

    No, it is just you that hates it.

  • Does anyone else hate the new updated OS for the ipod touch?

    I dont like the way the email is delivered now or that you cant delete email without opening each email. Please put it back to the way it was.

    You do not have to open mail to delete it in iOS 5.  When viewing the list of emails in preview for any given account, just tap "Edit" and you can then tap on each message to be deleted, hit delete (bottom of screen) once you picked them all and they are deleted.  Also in the preview list, you can swipe (left-to-right) on a message to delete it.

  • Does anyone know if the new ipad air has a usb port. This is the only downside to the ipad to me? My samsung galaxy tab has 2. 1 being a micro usb. Great for connecting to the tv.     Thanks, greenlady5.

    Does anyone know if the new ipad sir, not yet available will have a usb port? This is the only thing that is prevented me from purchasing so far. Doesn't make sense when you can connect to tv.
                                                                       ggreenlady5.

    The standard external connection and charge port on all recently-announced (October 2014) models in the US is the Lightning connector, introduced with the iPad 4 in Sept 2012. http://techcrunch.com/2012/09/12/apples-new-lightning-connector-what-it-does-and -doesnt-change/
    This includes iPad Air, iPad Air 2, iPad mini, iPad mini 2 with Retina display and iPad mini 3.
    https://www.apple.com/ipad/compare/
    NOTE: The original iPad (2010), iPad 2 (2011), iPad 3 (early 2012) came with a 30-pin connector, also common to original iPhones and iPods.
    Additional adapters are available to connect TV's, cameras, SD memory cards, and similar devices, from many sources, including the Apple Store online. (Adapters are still available for the older iDevices using the 30-pin connector as well)

  • Does anyone else think that the AppleMac group of products are marketed in a greedy way? I have MacBook Pro 10.5.8 and am now told that I have to upgrade to Snow Leopard to sync my new iPad. Of course there isn't enough memory on the MacBook? I'm angry!

    Does anyone else think that the AppleMac group of products are marketed in a greedy way? I have MacBook Pro 10.5.8 with Leopard and am now told that I have to upgrade to Snow Leopard so that my system can download the relevant iTunes upgrade to sync my new iPad and get my audiobooks (which don't appear anywhere on the device right now). Of course there isn't enough memory on the MacBook and Snow Leopard costs more also? I don't have financial resources to pay for all the new memory requirement and related upgrades they say I need just to sync my iPad with my purchases.

    Thanks for the reply but I already knew this. $20 for Snow Leopard which asks for 5gb free memory. I can only see that I have 4 gb (which I feel is rather a pathetic amount of available memory for any computer). To upgrade this computer's memory will cost another fee (I haven't researched this yet but gather it's more than $20). Then of course I could also be told that the OSX Mackbook Pro that I have can't be memory upgraded - which means I'm being told to buy a new computer - hence my very frustrated last email. I have been given a lovely iPad 2 as a present and now can't sync at all with anything because of this ongoing upgrade nightmare. How on earth am I going to be able to sync my movies, audiobooks etc to this new device??

  • Everytime i update the software a thunderbolt firmware update 1.0 appears. i install the updates and whenever i check for new updates the same firmware update appears again...does anyone else have the same problem?

    does anyone else have the same problem??

    I did! Just make sure when you're updating, to be connected to power!

  • After the newest update, i can no longer type in traditional chinese ( pin yin), does anyone else have the same problem?

    after the newest update ( iso 7) , i can no longer type in traditional chinese ( pin yin), does anyone else have the same problem?

    I downloaded and tried EasyFind. It works but it took 30+ seconds to complete finding 3 files that are on One of my Five 25+ Gb partitions of my 130 Gb Seagate Cuda(Really 160 Gb, but my Sawtooth will only recognize 130) I figured that if I ever got a better box, I could reformat it to see the whole 160 Gb. So, as far as I can see, Spotlight's indexing scheme which finds the files instantly is probably preferable. Spot light allows you to rename your files from within it's app window. I've always thought that was pretty powerful. Could my doing so be causing me any issues? As i said it is the inability to Type in the Finder that seemed to be caused from changing file Extentions that were mis-written. Maybe it was a delayed reaction to my renaming files in the Spotlight app? I've done both on occasion.
    As for these .DS_Store files. Apparently you can NOT stop them from being written to any folder that you touch/open/view during a days session. But, as a function of the OS, are the essential to have in their respective folders Forever? I've looked at the .DS_Store terminator app briefly and assume that getting rid of these files won't hurt the regular operation of my OS. They will just be re-written if I ever have to go back to any particular folder again. But, apparently, some have said that if the plan on burning a CD or DVD of their data, they delete the .DS_Store files first and then do the burn.
    I'm thinking from your having suggested this tremination app that you suspect that my having all of these ,DS_Store files could be a situation where any of them could have become corrupted and terminating them regularly should be part of my regular maintenance.
    Does that sound like I'm understanding what I can do?
    TIA

  • Does anyone else think..............

    Does anyone else think you should be able to import a DVD using itunes? Just like you would with a CD? I think itunes needs to get with the times...

    If you're referrring to commercial DVDs, the problem with that is that they're copy-protected. Apple would have to build in decoding of the copy protection into iTunes and get licenses from the DVD producers to allow DVDs to be imported, something they're unlikely to grant, though we can hope that at some point the content owners will be flexible enough to allow it.
