Finder active/deactive flashing and removing quicktime thumbnails

I have two annoyances right now with running leopard:
1.) Anytime I'm in finder and there is several quicktime movies it takes forever for it to load each thumbnail pic of each quicktime (majority of the time they're black). I'm guessing it has something to do with cover flow. How can I deactivate this feature to just show the quicktime icon in front of the filename?
2.) I've noticed that recently when I have the finder window open it suddenly deactivates and re-activates several times. It doesn't close, it just a flashing dark grey/light grey window for a few seconds.
I'd appreciate any help, thank you.

Note that if you are using Perian, as explained at http://perian.org/#support, you must wait for MKV movies to load completely. This has nothing to do with Cover Flow; it is inherent in the format.

Html codes for a flash and a quicktime movie

I'm building a new webpage and I want to put a flash and a quicktime movie in every page......now that the new iWeb has the html snippet option I was wondering if there is anyway of embeding the movies with html code in a way that I just have to replace the movie file instead of putting the movies in every page all over again every time I want to update the site
Thanks

Code for Flash inclusion is here: http://artotems.com/test.aspx as well as many other examples.
It's intended for PC OL users but can be used for any site with HTML access. There are many clear examples on the site. I know I wrote them.

Issue with usb flash and removable hard drives in Lion. (also an install tip)

Having an issue with my usb flash and removable hard drives. I plug them in and Lion does not display all my files/folders, I take it out and plug it into my snow leopard machine and all the files/folders are there, does anyone have this issue?
It does it on my macbook pro which was a snow leopard upgrade to Lion and it does it on my macbook which was a clean install of Lion via a bootable flash drive.
The computers both work great in all other aspects, so there were no errors on installation. It's plain and simple, some files/folders are not showing up that are present on the drives and viewable on all other non-lion OS's mac and PC.
Also a word on installs, I highly suggest doing a clean install (delete and reformat drive them install Lion vs a snow leopard ugrade) my machine that was a clean install (macbook) runs 50% faster and smoother than the upgraded one (macbook pro).

Yes, you can use your backup disk drives in the manner you describe, but Apple provides conflicting information on the subject.
From Mac Basics: Time Machine
Time Machine can’t backup to an external drive that's connected to an AirPort Extreme, Time Capsule, or a drive formatted for Microsoft Windows ...
From Time Machine doesn't back up to AirPort Extreme AirPort Disks
Time Machine in Mac OS X v10.5 or later can be used to back up to many kinds of Mac OS Extended-formatted drives, but you cannot choose an AirPort Extreme 802.11n's AirPort Disk as a Time Machine backup volume.
However, you can choose Time Capsule AirPort Disks or internal disks as a Time Machine backup volume.
They have yet to resolve this discrepancy.
All other available technical details regarding Time Machine's use seem to indicate that a USB HD connected to Time Capsule should meet Time Machine's requirements. For what it's worth I have been using an external HDD connected to the Time Capsule's USB port and it seems to function just fine.

PSE5 organizer tracking deleted and renamed folders and removing orphan thumbnails

If files are deleted or renamed within a folder that's being watched by organizer, the changes made through explorer or any other program don't seem to ever get reflected in Organizer. For example, I deleted an entire folder of junk photos through Windows. They still show in Organizer. How do I tell Organizer to re-scan the folder and remove orphan thumbnails from the catalog? The only thing I've been able to do at this point is to highlight them all and delete them. That's not bad for a single folder, but is a pain when I've done a lot of renaming, reorganizing, and creation and deletion of folders and subfolders under the watched folder.
I've used a program called Thumbs Plus for years, and it has an option "remove orphans" that you can do globally, or on a folder and its subfolders. I'm wondering if there's something similar in PSE.

Yes, I realize that in an "ideal" world we could do absolutely all of our organizing in "organizer" but I just can't see that becoming a reality. We have different users on this computer and there are certainly going to be times when we're already working in another program, including Windows Explorer. One would think that if Organizer is monitoring a folder it would detect all changes, or at least have a manual "rescan folder" or "remove option of some sort to help get the real files back in sync with the catalog. Hmmm. I'm still using eval mode and not sure that I like this part! Perhaps the next version will do better in this regard.

My mac has de- activated adobe flash and I cannot work out how to re-activate flash ?

I'm using firefox 18.01 and OSX 10.6.8.

Please update to Flash 11.5, you are using Flash 10.2 which is horribly insecure and out of date. http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/download/?installer=Flash_Player_11_for_Mac_OS_X_10.6_-_10.8&os=OSX&browser_type=Gecko&browser_dist=Firefox

Quicktime and all quicktime application crash, can't uninstall QT too

hi all. I have an application (called Omnia Maxi) that use an old version of QuickTime (4.something). I have installed that application togheter with the version of QuickTime that comes with it (4.x). I already had the last QuickTime version (7.62.14.0) when i installed the 4.x version over it.
This application didn't work and also QuickTime 7 stop working. I uninstalled the old application and also QuickTime 4, but nothing. When I open QuickTime 7 it gives an error "Obsolete components in QuickTime. Please reinstall QuickTime" and the crash.
From the Control Panel I can't uninstall QuickTime 7. It first appears "Collecting needed information" (translating from italian) and then it appears a dialog box with just "fatal error during uninstallation" and QuickTime 7 is still here
I tried to remove c:\Programs\QuickTime directory manually and cleaning the registry with specific tools, QuickTime now installs but give me the same error of obsolete components and then crash
How can i solve this?

Go in C:\Program Files and remove QuickTime again. Then go to C:\Windows\system32 and remove QuickTime qts and QuickTime qtx
Next use Windows Installer Clean-up Utility to remove the windows installer information for QuickTime.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
Now try and run the QuickTime installer again. If you still have trouble post back

Finding and removing malware, key-loggers, spyware

There have been many threads about finding keylogers and spywear on OSX, but most of them are akin to giving a man a fish than teaching him to fish. For instance Linc Davis responded to the below thread with some instructions in terminal and requested the output be copied to the thread. This will not help anyone who doesn't have access to a "Linc Davis."
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4243511?start=0&tstart=0
Is there a tutorial or something that we can use to monitor these kinds of things? I look in Console, Activity Monitor, Little Snitch but I don't really know what I'm looking for. And when you do find it how do you remove it? I heard once that if you back up your infected computer to a drive and computer you now connect that drive to can get infected (like my freshly wiped HD with a new copy of OSX). A list of all known malware process names.
After looking at my output in the above link someone suggested that com.BT.kext.bpkkext was a suspect and that Blazing tools Perfect Keylogger was the software. I can't remove it; I even downloaded the uninstaller from Blazing tools.

Here is my output, if someone only has time for a fish instead of a leason. Thanks in Advanced!

How can I find and remove duplicate photos in iPhoto?

What is the best way to find and remove duplicate photos in iPhoto?

Are you seeing these duplicates in iPhoto or via the Finder? If it's in the iPhoto window then you can use one of these applications to identify and remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95
Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto - free
Duplicate Annihilator - $7.95 - only app able to detect duplicate thumbnail files or faces files when one library has been imported into another with iPhoto 8 and earlier.
PhotoSweeper - $9.95 - This app can search by comparing the image's bitmaps or histograms thus finding duplicates with different file names and dates.
I also prefer iPLM as it is more than just a dup finder. It's a the most versatile iPhoto utility available.

How do I get someone to activate my Flash pro cs6 after I properly deactivated it and now it won't reactivate. I need a phone number or email address or something.

I may need to reformat my computer soon. It has been acting badly. So, in accordance with instructions I have gotten from FLASH I deactivated Flash Pro CS6 before I turned off my computer to save myself a problem if the computer died before I deactivated FLASH. Now, when I get back into FLASH PRO CS6 the "deactivate" button is grayed. Who do I talk to about this and how do I contact them?

Flash CS4, Exporting Quicktime Movie: size, aspect ratio, and alignment

I am new to Flash so this may be a basic question, but I have not been able to find anything in the help files or the forums.
I have tried several times to change the size of my quicktime movies, from 550 pixels by 400 pixels to 480 pixels by 480 pixels, and I cannot seem to do it. I have used "Modify > Document" and tried every option I could find through this command. Each time I export I double check that the export settings match my desired size, and they do, but when I open the movie in quicktime, it has been stretched to fit 550 x 400 pixels. The preview movie looks exactl how I want, it is only the exported movie that is incorrect.
Is it possible to make a quicktime movie of the size I would like, or is that a standard format that cannot be adjusted?
As a workaround, I have tried squeezing my 480x480 content into the 550x400 stage (while scaling it prportionally). but when I do this, the square of content is not centered in the background in quicktime. It is off center in the preview movie as well, and this commonly occurs after I have used "modify > document" to change the size of the document. The side to which it is aligned seems to be inconsistent.
Is there a way to realign the video after I have modified the document size? Does changing the document size through "modify > document" affect the centering and alignment of my video? Is there a way to change it back?
I have attached images of my videos in flash, and then what they look like after export.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
-Ben

to explain a little further . . .
the dark gray areas in my images delineate the content of the animation, and in the "550x400 after export" image, the black strip to the right is a margin showing the background color of the document, which is black. notice that there is only a margin on one side, and not both.
Thanks some more,
-Ben

Shockwave Flash and QuickTime?

I really love Safari but now I am being forced to use FireFox which works well, but has the ugly look of a PC...
What happened was, on this site:
http://microsites.audi.com/audir8/html/index.php
The first two screens would load, but when I got the screens with the flags, the countdown never changed from 99 even tho the circle kept going around.
It worked perfectly in FireFox.
So, I go and download and install the latest Shockwave Flash with plugin v9.0r28.t and now, this page won't even load and I just get a page with the ? over the Q.
Furthermore, everytime I go on any website, any SWF ads, which are a lot, come up with the ? over the Q.
I have fiddled with the QT prefs as to what app should handle what but overall I'm very frustrated with the inability to adjust my helper apps in Safari..
Please help!
Here are my specs:
1.5 Ghz PowerPC G4
1.5 GB RAM
Mac OS X 10.4.7
Safari Version 2.0.4 (419.3)

Hi MacLady
I had no problem viewing the site.
Did you "repair permissions" via Disk Utility in your Utilities folder after downloading the latest Flash player? Are you certain there is no conflict going on between two flash plug-ins in your system - one in /Library/Internet Plug-ins and the other in ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins, where ~ = your User Account? Sometimes on reinstalls two plug-ins exist in the system. If so, best to remove the one in the User Account.
Empty cache via Safari menu, and removing the Audi cookies in your Safari Preferences>Security>Cookies panel will clean the slate.
Regarding Quicktime Preferences via System Preferences:
In the Advanced panel, make sure "enable flash" is checked
In the Mime settings, the Miscellaneous box (specifically related to "Flash Media" is unchecked.

Want to remove quicktime and keep Itunes

Hi all -
Quicktime on Windows is one the worst pieces of software I have ever experienced. I just want it removed from my pc, but the problem is that I like Itunes, and Itunes requires Quicktime to run. Is there a way around this?
I have to remove Quicktime because it somehow keeps hijacking my file associations and it breaks flash (read: youtube) every time it does this. After editing Quicktime Preferences this fixes it, but for some reason Quicktime grabs the associations again after every Apple update, which is annoying as ****. Is there any way to remove it and keep Itunes working??

iTunes needs Quicktime to run. The earliest version of Quicktime that the latest version of iTunes will work with is 7.1.6. I'm currently using Quicktime 7.3.1. I can't watch some videos from the iTunes store, but music plays fine which is all I need. Using 7.3.1 also means some vulnerabilities won't be patched. I don't go to sketchy Web sites, and I always use a regular user account for daily computing instead of an Administrator account.

I need help finding and removing an adware?

Hi everyone,
So i'll try and explain this as best i can. I've got some kind of adware/spyware playing havok with my web browsers. I found and removed the TERRIBLE spigot extensions in google chrome but theres something unwanted that remains.
Whatever is still in there has a few signs of its existence, none of which lead me to searchable queries online. The first sign is a bunch of youtube adverts that appear when i watch a video. The advert has at the bottom of the screen " ads by cm movies". It also has an "i" information button which when you click sends you to a very non specific (generic/madeup) website which apparently allows you to opt out of the ads but wont actually allow it.
It also strangles my internet. Pages take ages to load, or quite often the loading icon will come up and the cooling fans? Will ramp up to full and i have to turn the computer off by using the button. I've tried searching the net for answers but no luck. I've looked at my extensions for chrome and safari. I've looked at my activity monitor for suspicious programs.
Im on a 27" imac, osx 10.9.2 (does this exist as theres only 7.0 options below).
Any help would be great.
Thanks,
Steve.

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) on the advice of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.
