Exporting and importing movies in iPhoto - unrecognised format

hi
I am trying to export just a few movies from iphoto in my user account, to my daughters parental support account on the same mac. (I imported from her camera to my account by mistake and deleted them from her camera, but want them only to be on her account ..... )
It has worked fine for the photos.
I am selecting the movie files. File export, kind original. this exports a .AVI file which i have put in a shared folder. I can reimport these .AVI files into my iphoto but when i fast user switch to her account , open iphoto, and try to import i get an error message saying that the file could not be imported due to an unrecognized format. I have spent ages trying to get this to work, checking file permissions etc, but i cannot get the movies across.
An additional frustration is that if i create a new folder in the shared area, or rexport the files again from my iphoto ( i was trying exporting in all the different kinds to see if that works), then the new files i exported do not show up in either my daughters finder or iphoto files.Why is this? Are they hidden? and if so why do these ones not show but the first ones i exported do show?
THanks for any help. I am rapidly going off the mac .... it is making me feel so dumb.

AVI is not a native mac video format, and it will depend on the codec used in the AVI, if Quicktime can play it. Do you have additional codecs installed in your account, that are not installed for all users and missing in your daughter's account? For example Perian, or Flip4Mac? Then install these too for your daughters account.

I am using Iphoto 11 ver 9.4.3 on mac using oxs 10.8.5 i want to export calendar projects to an external hard drive. what is the easiest way to do this? i have tried export and import but it didn't seem to work.

I am using Iphoto 11 ver 9.4.3 on mac using oxs 10.8.5 i want to export calendar projects to an external hard drive. my goal is to store them in an external hard drive so it doesn't use up memory on the mac hard drive. is it possible to copy the specific projects without copying the entire library? what is the easiest way to do this? i have tried export and import but it didn't seem to work.

What do you not understand?
You can duplicate the iPhoto library (command - D ) and delete everything except the project and its photos from the copy and move that
Or
However the calendar takes very little space - it is simpy database entries - it is the photos in the calendar that take space - and for most people you would wnat to keep those photos in your library
you can use a photo in 50 calendars and it still is only one photo in your library - as I explained calenders do not exist as such - they are simply database entries telling iPhotop how to display the calendar - they take almost no space at all

How do I import movies with an AVI format taken with a digital SLR?

How do I import movies with an AVI format taken with a digital SLR?

If you cannot import using File Menu > Import Movies... You'll have to convert them on a Mac.
You will need to use a free app called MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5.
Basically, you drag the .mts file into MPEG Streamclip. Then use FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME and choose Apple Intermediate Codec as your codec. And it will save out to a .mov file and iMovie will edit this format like there was no tomorrow

Export and Import of mappings/process flows etc

Hi,
We have a single repository with multiple projects for DEV/UAT and PROD of the same logical project. This is a nightmare for controlling releases to PROD and in fact we have a corrupt repository as a result I suspect. I plan to split the repository into 3 separate databases so that we have a design repos for DEV/UAT and PROD. Controlling code migrations between these I plan to use the metadata export and subsequent import into UAT and then PROD once tested. I have used this successfully before on a project but am worried about inherent bugs with metadata export/imports (been bitten before with Oracle Portal). So can anyone advise what pitfalls there may be with this approach, and in particular if anyone has experienced loss of metadata between export and import. We have a complex warehouse with hundreds of mappings, process flows, sqlldr flatfile loads etc. I have experienced process flow imports that seem to lose their links to the mappings they encapsulate.
Thanks for any comments,
Brandon

This should do the trick for you as it looks for "PARALLEL" therefore it only removes the APPEND PARALLEL Hint and leaves other Hints as is....

Exporting and Importing Destination Controls Error

When I export table within destination control and import the table to another Ironport again within destination control I receive error - "Wrong format of the destination config file: ip_sort_pref is required for the global settings."
We are updating the ASYNC on each of our de clustered Ironport. So when one is not in use we need the other to handle all the traffic, including domain controls.
The output displays
[ABCDE.com]
max_host_concurrency = 500
limit_apply = system
limit_type = host
max_messages_per_connection = 50 ......
How can I import this without losing or altering the data within.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Solution
We upgrade one of our SMTP ASYNC to 8.0.1 which creates a additional line within default of the upgraded Ironport exported control destination table that is named... wait for it.... ip_sort_pref. Just add it.

The applications and drivers have been imported into the Dev SCCM server however I cannot find the actual content so I am not sure this has worked properly.
When you exported did you choose to "Export all content for selected task sequence and dependencies".
80070003 = The system cannot find the path specified.

Is it possible to replace masters with versions without going through the process of exporting and importing?

Is it possible to overwrite the master files with the versions without having to go through the entire process of exporting and importing back the images?
Thnx in advance

A small refinement if you shoot RAW. Remember, no RAW file can ever be edited or rewritten. Thus, in the old days, the flow was:
RAW>TIFF/PSD and you ended up with two large files. (This is why some folks used to delete the RAW Masters.)
With Aperture the flow is something like:
RAW+Version(s) Only the Version is only 30 KB. (There is, of course, additional overhead of Thumbs and Previews, but, depending on your settings, this is only a fraction of the size of a TIFF or PSD.)
You question goes right to the heart of the concept of a non-destructive workflow. With Aperture you always preserve your original Master file; the only things that are ever at risk are your edits (called Adjustments). Ironically, this is even more valuable if you shoot JPEG or TIFF as those files could be rewritten.)
Aperture goes to great lengths to give you the best of both worlds; you always have the Master to revert to and your "edits" take up very little disk space. And you don't have to waste time trying to sync folders of RAW, TIFF, and JPEG. Similarly, you never have to worry about resizing images, changing color spaces, or any number of other things that get locked into an image file when you use a destructive workflow.
Remember, Aperture will happily Export files in any format you may need. Export 'em, use 'em, delete 'em - your Masters are still safe in Aperture.

Export and Import of Configuration Data

Hi All,
I have created a number of custom properties, structures, groups, renderers, layout sets etc and would like to move them from Dev to Test system.
I have found the following in the help doco:
"Export and Import of Configuration Data"
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e1/029c414c79b25fe10000000a1550b0/content.htm
However I am unable to see its functionality in our portal systems (namely the Actions->Export and Actions->Import functions).
Our version of Portal is: 6.0.9.6.0
KM: 6.0.9.3.0 (NW04 SPS09 Patch3)
Therefore we should be able to see it? no?
Are there any special settings to see these buttons?
Cheers,
Vic

Thanks for your replies.
OK, so in otherwords, it is not available in SP09 and only in SP12+.
So, to "transport" this information I will have to manually reapply thes settings in the Test system!

Export and Import of Portal Users (UME database only)

Hi
What is the most efficient way to export all Portal user that are stored in Portal UME database so that it can be imported to another Portal installation and be used..
Thanks in Advance
Ananda

Hi,
SAP User Administration is the standard way to export and import users in the portal. Using the export functionality, all the user information will get exported, including the roles and groups assigned:
[User]
uid=userid
last_name=Lastname
first_name=Tobias
language=en
accessibility=0
role=pcd:portal_content/com.sap.portal.xxx;
group=Administrators;
If you only want to export the user data without the roles and groups, you'll have to delete these lines.

Export And Import Agreements in B2B 11g (After renaming)

Hi All
I am aware about the process to Export and Import the B2B agreements in Oracle B2B 11g.
But, I want to export an agreement, rename the agreement name, Channel Name, Trading Partner name and re-import in the same instance.
For e.g.
If I have an Agreement : BrokerOutbound_AU
Trading Partner : BrokerAU
Channel Name : BrokerAU_Outbound
in my development environment
then,
I want to export the above agreement and modify it somehow to re-import it as follows :
Agreement Name : PY_BrokerOutbound_AU
Trading Partner : PY_BrokerAU
Channel Name : PY_BrokerAU_Outbound
I tried renaming it in the XML which is exported, but I am not able to import it.
Is there a way I can rename and import it in my same environment. I would appreciate if someone can help me out in achieving the same.
Thanks in advance

Tables that were created before you changed deferred_segment_creation to FALSE and do not have any rows would still be segment-less tables --- i.e. not exported.
You need to issue an "ALTER TABLE tablename MOVE" for each of such tables (after having set deferred_segment_creation to FALSE) to force a rebuild of these tables with segments before the export.
Thus, the sequence is
1. set deferred_segment_creation to FALSE
2. identify all tables with 0 rows
3. issue an ALTER TABLE tablename MOVE for each of such tables from step 2
4. Re-run your export
alternatively use conventional export (exp) instead of datapump export.

Data Export and Import

Hello,
I need a suggestion.
I have two databases namely DB1 and DB2 and they are on different servers
S1 and S2 respectively.
What could be my approach to move data from DB1 to DB2.
1:-Do i need a database link to do this.
2:-Can i do this without DBLink if i have access to both of the Databases and DBA rights on both of the Databases.

My lowly opinion ,
it's depend on :
- db1 and db2 is in same version
- if same and db are until 9i You can use exp/imp
- if 10g You can use datapump (expdb , or dbms_datapump)
- if version is different You have to use different exp/imp utilities
- how many data you wont to move
- determine to use db link , or export
Answer,
-Yes db1 and db2 are of the same version.
-They are on Oracle 10g.
-Firstly i want to move a single table data, if successful then decide.
Now guide me how to go for it. Do i need DB link or is there any other method i can use for export and import.

Automate exports and imports (file names)

Hi all,
I will like to do a simple export and import into another schema in another database.
I am very comfortable with the process but all i require is how to set the dump file and log file names to be the date and name of the database being exported and imported.
For example when I do the export I want the dump file and logfile names to be exp_ORCL_230805.dmp and exp_ORCL_230805.log for database ORCL exported on 230805.
For the import I want the logfile name to be imp_TEST_230905.log.
I am doing this export and import on a windows xp client but the database reside on UNIX AIX boxes.
Thanks alot

Set up ORACLE_SID before you start the imp/exp session on the client, then you can use file=exp_%ORACLE_SID%_%DATE%.dmp etc. (Note that if your windows locale has a date format w/ whitespace you might have to write a script to get rid of it..)

How row migration get eliminated by export and import the table.

Hi ,
Please let me know,how row migration get eliminated by export and import the table.
Another method,deleting migrated rows and inserting those rows from copied table,
i think the concept behind this method is,inserting these rows into new block.
pls correct me if i am wrong.
Thanks,
Kumar.

Hi!
You can also use ALTER TABLE MOVE command, or if you are on 9i you can use DBMS_REDEFINITION package.
If you have a maintainance window the easiest way would be to use alter table move.

How to export and import the lsmw

Hi Friends,
How to export and import the objects in lsmw
from dev to qas(quality) systems........
its urgent.........
regards,
venu.

best way is to create a transport and move it to other enviroments
There are two ways of Transporting for this. Can choose any one.
Goto the LSMW Transaction
1)Extras>Export Projects>(Give the Project name)
In next screen(Choose what subproject, routines, etc.. you wan to copy then, Export Rules-->Export((Will prompt for file name)
A text file will be downloaded.
In the Target System
Goto LSMW Extras-->Import Projects and give the text file which was downloaded.
2)Extras-->Generate Change Request
Assign a change request which is basically a transport request and you can then get this transported from one system to another through the basis route.

Possible to convert Raw to JPEG without exporting and importing?

I have about 4,500 raw photos that I need to print on contact sheets (or print contact sheets to a PDF). I took the photos all in Raw format. Aperture, or my computer, is not powerful enough to process all of these photos onto contact sheets from the Print Images menu item; it takes several hours. I suspect I need to convert the files to a low-quality JPEG and print the contact sheets from those, which should be fine because the thumbnails are so small.
Here's the question: I know that I can create JPEGs from these raw files by exporting as JPEG and then reimporting them into Aperture, but this seems overly complicated. Is there a way I can select a number of photos within Aperture, and then select to convert them to JPEG of a particular quality, without leaving the application? Or are the multiple steps - exporting and importing - necessary?
Next time I'm shooting Raw+JPEG to avoid this, by the way...

So my workaround actually worked. I exported the photos as low-quality JPEGs, reimported them into a new project, and processed a Contact Sheet off of those. To process a Contact Sheet with the raw files would have taken Aperture about 12 hours or so. To process a Contact Sheet using the low-quality JPEGs took about 10 minutes. I'm glad this worked, though I wish there were a way in Aperture to create JPEGs from the raw files without leaving the application.
