File structure different than iMac?

My AppleTV displays photos from my iMac but not the same "name", file sequence that they are set up in the iMac. I'm a real noob in the Apple world so please go easy!

Any help with this?

The way Aperture renders my Nikon RAW (NEF) files look different than...

The was Aperture renders my NEF files looks different than NX...
Ok so I use all the in camera setting/tools to the best of abilities to try and cut my editing down as much as possible but when shooting RAW I end up having to tweak every images to get them back to what they really look like... I shoot often RAW and JPG combined and when I open a NEF in NX and a JPG in PS they are identical and need very little work, when I use Aperture the NEF files are very different looking from the JPG (or NEF in NX) and every single one needs tweaking (I get more redish/pinkish skin, often a hint of green cast to (slightly off WB/tone thing) and more contrast.
Below is screenshot showing the difference between a JPG (or NEF in NX) and a RAW file in Aperture
[img]http://www.pbase.com/ray645/image/120052970/original.jpg[/img]
This is just a silly snap shot in very flat overcast light, and has the least amount of shift or difference of any image type so far, when I use strobes, shoot for a more contrasty image, gel for color and manual WB the differences are huge almost to the point that you would think you where looking at two completely different images and not the same NEF opened in different software.
How do I go about getting Aperture to render my NEF's more like what I shot like NEF in NX, JPG in anything, and even the back of the camera screen?

Thank you, that seems like will work, just having the boost turned down a bit on import has helped tremendously but I cant stop feeling like I am moving towards the "Fix it in post" mentality
I will need to get better at tweaking my images... No matter how I try I cant kill the pinking skin or the very faint green glow in blond hair or bright neutral tones without affecting other areas of the image.. I am sure I will figure it out but anyone having any tips or links that could speed up my process I would appreciate it.
The green is weird its like someone snuck a small florescent light into all my shoots without telling me, not major but enough to be annoying.
I shoot a ton of motor sports (3000 images a weekend) and shoot JPG and have gotten good at using in camera pre sets, knowing what I got and getting it right in the camera, I wish Nikon would give up the code or whatever is needed for all the info to be carried over to Aperture..... I would pay the $100 or whatever to use the NX engine in Aperture

Output file is different than timeline

Hello everyone,
This is my first post here, hope you can help me out with an issue I'm having on Premiere Elements 8.
What happens is the following:
I'm creating a video with a mix of movie files and still images. The format is a 16:9 Widescreen. As some files do not fit the size, I have unchecked Scale to Frame Size, and I have streched them out a bit. It doesn't look 100%, but it works fine for what I need. So, I have filled the whole black space in the timeline there with the videos and still images. I have added some pan and zooms in the still images, so it doesn't look so boring.
Now, when I export the video, I'm doing these settings: WMV format HD 720p 30 fps 1.0 Square Pixels.
Most of the video (98% I would say) exports perfectly. There are only 3 still images which aren't positioned as they were supposed to be. They are all too much to the right side of the screen, therefore showing the black edge on the left and cutting the right side of the image off-screen. All other still images and video files are positioned exactly as I see creating the video. I have done some tests, like 1.21 Pixels, but then it messed up the whole thing, all out of place.
One problem is that it takes me about 1 hour to export in this WMV format HD 720p 30 fps, so for testing stuff it takes hours.
Anyway... any clue of what could be wrong for those images to be wrong in the output file?
I could also try another format, but this is the only one I could find which the quality was fairly good in the output file (size about 170mb). It's for a YouTube video, so I'm looking for a decent quality for a video there, about 5 minutes long, HQ.
Well, I say beforehand than I'm a noob with video editing in general and Premiere Elements specifically. So, a little help would be extremelly important.
Thanks a lot for reading my challenge here.
Fernando

Great, it worked fine now. No more weird behavior with the still images. I resized them in Photoshop Elements, and imported again into Premiere Elements. All beautiful and file size is smaller in the end.
NOW... may I use this same thread for another novice question?
When I'm starting a project, I'm choosing the following configuration:
NTSC DV Widescreen
Would I get a better result if using NTSC HDV 720p 30?
Because at the end, I'm exporting my movie as Windows Media (.WMV) HD 720p 30.
Thanks!

Software Update File Size Different than Apple Downloads File Size

Background:
I am running software update and it retrieves the update for "MacBook, MacBook Pro Software update 1.1" File size is listed as 768K. When I go to the Apple Downloads page for this update, the file size is 979K.
Download ID is 16618 and URl is http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macbookmacbookprosoft wareupdate11.html
Question:
Is this discrepancy normal based on the way that Software Update calculates file size or should I be concerned? There is no hash to confirm integrity of the file.

File size, and the volume of space it takes up are 2 different things. Space will very from computer to computer. Chances are, the larger the drive the more space it takes up. Reason? The file system (HSF + on macs with Leopard). The file sytem divides the drive into specific number of sections. That number may be 10 M, say. So, even if you have a thumbnail that is 4 kb, it will still require the minimum size of the file system. Make sense? There is a lot of wasted space on very large drives.
Note: Leopard is set up to use a new file system that apple may soon adopt. It will not use the division method HFS + uses, and so will save a lot of space, if adopted.

CS2 Help Files Problem - Different than those Previously listed

I installed PSCS2 and the installation appeared to go OK and for the most part the program runs as I would expect.
The issue I have is with the help files. When I try to access the help files the Adobe Help Center opens but the only help available is for PS Elements 4. I did NOT remove PSE4 prior to installing PSCS2 and it is still on my machine.
This is a Dell Dimension XPS, running Win XP Pro, 2.8 G Pentium 4 processor, 1G DDR RAM.
Thanks in advance,
Ken Kovak

Thanks to everyone that posted suggestions on how to fix this. I think that deleting the folders/files can't hurt, but I'm not sure it's really necessary.
The problem for many of us is that the CS2 help package is simply gone. I tried everything suggested in all the other threads - including completely removing and reinstalling several applications - and nothing worked until I simply downloaded the help package from Adobe, placed it in the packages folder, and ran help.
AHC.exe is obviously smart enough to check that folder before opening so if it finds a new package it will apparently rebuild the database and "install" it.
The worst thing in my mind is that Adobe hasn't addressed this problem even though it's a known issue and should have been fixed in the 9.01 update release. How lame is that? It's extremely lame to answer my own question Yes, I'm "teaked" that I've wasted so much time on something Adobe should have fixed but is too lazy to address. Kind of like the Bridge problem...... I grow more disenchanted with Adobe all the time...
Anyone that installed Elements 4.0 (for it's superior management and viewing capabilities) may face this problem.
Again, thanks to all the helpful users and an extremely rotten tomato to Adobe.....

Ftp images have file names different than camera

Using FTPonTheGoPRO pictures are uploaded with image file names that are not in the order the pics were taken - is there a way to re-name the images before they get uploaded?

One more thing....Its not so much that ShutterSnitch is buggy but that it wasn't developed for what I'm trying to do.

How to load and unload more than one external swf files in different frames?

I do not have much experience on Adobe Flash or Action Script 3, but I know the basics.
I am Arabic language teacher, and I design an application to teach Arabic, I just would like to learn how to load and unload more than one external swf files in different frames.
Thanks

Look into using the Loader class to load the swf files. If you want to have it happen in different frames then you can put the code into the different frames.

Then it sounds like the FW800 to 400 adapter just gets in the way. You don't have FW800 case? on my MDD G4 I added and used FW800 controller and cases from OWC and Sonnet.

Read lines from more than 1 file of different file extensions, extract the data and output to screen

Hi,
I am trying to read data from more than one file at once. The files are different types e.g. one is a text file one is an xml file like so, StudentInformation.txt, CollegeInformation.xml. The files are all stored in one place, in this case on the D drive of
a local computer. I am trying to locate any files in the D drive with a file extension of .txt or of .xml (there may be more than two of these files in the future, so I'm trying to allow for that). Then I want to open all of these files, extract the information
and output all the information in one display window. I want all the information from these two or more files to be displayed together in the display window.
Here is the code so far. It is throwing up errors.
//Load from txt or xml files
private void btnLoad_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
IEnumerable<string> fileContents = Directory.EnumerateFiles("D:\\", "*.*", SearchOption.TopDirectoryOnly)
.Select(x => new FileInfo(x))
.Where(x => x.Extension == ".xml" || x.Extension == ".txt")
.Select(file => ParseFile(file));}
private string ParseFile(FileInfo file)
try
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(file.FullName))
string line;
while ((line = sr.ReadLine()) != null)
//Logic here to determine if this is the correct file and append accordingly
lbDisplay.Items.Add(line);
return line;
catch (Exception ex)
// Let the user know what went wrong
MessageBox.Show("The file could not be read: ");
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
The error it throws up is:
Error 1
'BookList.MainWindow.ParseFile(System.IO.FileInfo)': not all code paths return a value

This is the Small Basic programming language so moving to a C# forum.
But you need all paths to return a value, including if an exception is called and it jumps to the catch, perhaps just:
// Let the user know what went wrong
MessageBox.Show("The file could not be read: ");
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
return "";

Two machines saving the same file as different sizes?

My coworker and I both have the same version of Illustratir (CS6) and both use Lion on iMacs, but today noticed something weird. He saved a file similar to a file I had done before as both an eps and a pdf and his file size was more than twice what my file sizes usually are. I thought it was odd, so I copied everything from his file into a new file (same dimensions) and saved out an eps and pdf (default settings), and like I thought, my files were less than half the size of his.
Why would two machines be saving identical files at different sizes? Is there a setting somewhere I'm missing? Everything in the file is vector, if it matters. There's not even any editable text.

See the mechanism of saving here: http://superuser.com/questions/66825/what-is-the-difference-between-size-and-size-on-disk
The size of the "blocks" depends on the size of the disk and how it's been formatted.

Export Masters To Organized File Structure

Hello Everyone,
I'm new to Aperture 3, in the past my photo library and folder structure has been a mish mosh of imports ranging from iPhoto to Picassa. The original photo structure of all my photos is a real mess. Of course, when I download Aperture 3, I jumped right in and imported all my photos (as referenced) then went about organizing them in Aperture.
I have looked around and not found the answer to this, but what I would like to do is take my Aperture Organized file structure and Export all the masters to a different location in the same organized File structure. Basically I want my "New" Master file structure to match my Aperture organized folder/project structure and store the referenced files on a share. Currently they are on my MBP with limited disk space.
I have played around with the export versions, but export Masters is grayed our when I select my entire "Projects and Albums". Any help would be much appreciated. I'm just trying to get better organized with my original Master jpeg folder structure.
Thank you,
Steve

(Added) First -- and this is important -- you must understand the difference between exporting an image (which creates a new file) and +relocating your Masters+ which moves your Masters to another drive location and tells Aperture where they are.
What you want to do -- quoted above -- can't be automatically (and thus usefully) done ... and (imho and apparently the Aperture design team's HO as well) there is no need.
Stepping into Aperture's world is bit like stepping off the solid pier onto a boat. You feel afloat. You worry about sinking. The boat won't sink.
Aperture is based on image-management. Until Aperture and like programs matured, photographers relied on +file managers+ and, basically, advanced file browsers.
Leave that behind. +There is no utility in having a one-to-one correspondence between your images and your digital negative files+. You literally can no not do this and use Aperture: Versions are images created on-the-fly, based on text files. They don't perdure as image format files (yes, I have been waiting a long time to use "perdure" in a sentence). Aperture lets the user manage their images (in tremendously plastic ways) and (except for backup) ignore file management completely.
I've touched on this in a few other responses in the forum. I'll try to find links. IME, the only file-management need I have is being able to find a file without Aperture. I keep all my Masters in their own directory (no one's captures but mine). I stick to a good file-naming convention. My computer sorts these tens of thousands of images by date in less than a second. I have never not been able to find a file almost immediately (as long as I know what I'm looking for).
If I don't know what I'm looking for -- I'll never find it using a file browser. That's what I use Aperture for.
I realize my presumption in assuming that your needs parallel mine. If they don't, specify exactly what functionality you are looking to maintain. Aperture may not be able to do it. My hunch, however, is that you are trying to stay moored to the world of file browsing. Push off -- there's good sailing out here.

Ipod file structure

itunes has reorganized my file structure (on my windows machine) to separate songs from different artists into different folders.... I had them all nicely organized by artist/album. because i use more than just an ipod to listen to my music, i'd like to retain the ease of the directory structure i had before itunes so i have a couple of questions:
1. how do i get my 27gb of mp3s filed back to the way they were?
2. is there a way to make both itunes and me content with how the music is organized?
This is the first setback i've run across with my ipod. truth be told, it's my most used toy and I'd hate to give it up but this file structure thing could be a deal breaker.
Thanks for any help on this issue.

Welll, I don't know how you can have your computer revert to the former file organisation. But note that iTunes has an option where it doesn't re-organise your files. I use a Mac so I don't know how true the following directions would be for Windows.
1. Go to the Preferences command (which is under the Apple Menu for Mac folks)
2. Select the Advanced tab/icon.
3. Uncheck the Keep iTunes music folder organised.
From now on, iTunes will not reorganise your folder/file structures.

Using Adobe Bridge file structure with iPhoto (latest version)

I use Adobe Bridge and have all my pics in named folders in Pictures/PICS/Folder Names. Inside the PICS folder is the iPhoto Library (only a few pics in it). Is there any way I can use the file structure I have set up with Bridge and iPhoto (latest) simultaneously? I really dont want to import (copy) all my pics into IPhot because I am pretty sure I will end up with two versions of each. I havent been able to manage pics manually the way I like to in older versions of iPhoto.

Here's some info to help you setup Photoshop for use with iPhoto:
Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Note 1: screenshots are from PSE 10
Note: to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.
