Get Info Duration Doesn't Work

I've imported a bunch of images into iMovie HD6 and would like to change the duration of them. However, if I right click-Get Info and then change it from, say, .2 to 1.5, it ends up giving me some random length like 1.13 or 2.4 or basically anything but what I actually tell it to. Sometimes I can work around this by making it extra long, then cutting it, but really that isn't a practical solution. If I want it to be 1 second long, it should listen to me when I change the duration to one second long.
Anyone seen this before? Ken Burns effect was turned OFF on import...
Mini Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Hi Jason - are you aware that the last two digits of the duration represent 'frames' - thus if you work in NTSC standard (29 frames per second), 14 stands for about 0.5 of a second.

Don't want to use new Numbers, but 'get info' fix doesn't work

Hi All,
I made the mistake of installing the new Numbers a month or two ago. I don't want to use the new Numbers because I need to work on the same documents on older machines that won't work with the new Numbers. On my machines with both versions of Numbers, I want to be able to just double-click on the documents and open with the older version. The usual fix is to use get info on a document, select the app I want to use for this type of document and then hit 'change all' for that type of doc. Well that's the theory at least. I've found that this setting doesn't stick in this case. (I've never seen this not work). It still opens with the new Numbers.
I've tried removing Numbers, but Software Update keeps nagging that there is an update available jfor Numbers, and wants to reinstall it. They 'dumbed down' Software Update so that you can't remove updates you don't want to be bothered by. (I hate it that Apple continually removes features, then adds them back in a year or two!) So I'm stuck.
Any one else have this happen? Any fixes?
Thanks!

Using Get Info to change all documents to open with Pages 4.3 doesn't work. The Mac OS will always default to the newest installed version & has for as long as I can remember. It will work on individual files, but that could be a lot of files to reset.
This is what worked for me. After I installed the new iWork updates I created a folder on an external drive & named it "Applications." I then moved the new iWork apps to this folder & renamed the applications Keynote 6, Pages 5 & Numbers 3. I have icons for two versions of Pages & Numbers (I rarely use Keynote) in my Dock. Even with two versions of Pages & Numbers running, double-clicking an existing file opens in Pages 4.3 or Numbers 2.3. This should also keep the Mac App Store from nagging you to update.
Since the last update I've used the solution Peter Breis posted (4th post in that thread) in iWork Tips 'n' Tricks with a little "tweak."
Making Numbers '09 the default whilst keeping Pages 5
1. Move any new iWork apps in another clearly labelled folder (I created a new folder in Applications & named it iWork 13)
2. Menu > Apple > System Preferences > Spotlight > Privacy > drag the above folder into the list
2) Move the new iWork folder into the trash (temporarily)
3) Select any Numbers file in Finder > Menu > Info (cmd+i) > Open with: > Pages '09 > Change all
4) Re the new iWork folder from the trash (right-click > Put back)
Pages 5 should no longer appear as a default App, and you won't have to keep a copy in a separate drive or dmg.
IMPORTANT: Make a note of where and how Pages was installed for the next App Store update and temporarily move it back there before putting it away again in the folder concealed from Spotlight.

Get info pane doesn't show appropriate "more info" info

Hello. There's a problem on my "get info" pane, where normally there should be a "more info" column showing some information about "image size", "author", etc.
But recently, for example, an image file's "more info" column doesn't show its dimension and other info, only showing "title" and "last opened". And other things are simply gone.
Another example is MP3 files, normally there should be showing more metadata like "bitrate", "artist", "duration", etc. But now, it just shows the "title" and "last opened".
This really bugs me because I normally used to look at some info about these things sometimes when I need to check it out when doing some picture works. So basically the main problem is "more info" doesn't show information that I needed and which it should be there, but somehow there's a problem on Mac OS X that makes it failed to show them all out.
If anyone could tell me a way to fix it, I am very appreciated!! Thank you!!
Here's the get info pane of both MP3 and JPEG files:

Generally when the "More Info" section is nearly empty it is because the file in question has not been indexed by Spotlight. As to WHY it hasn't, that is a whole 'nother question, which you may be able to answer. Perhaps you have it stored somewhere that is excluded in the Spotlight Privacy pane, or on a drive where Spotlight is disabled, or in a folder where you don't have proper permissions... and so on.

ITunes 10.5 and Get Info facility - no longer working?

Since I installed iTunes 10.5 last week, the Get Info facility for adding details of albums not on Gracenote doesn't work. The screen comes up as before but once you start typing iTunes crashes and quits.
Anyone else got this problem? Anyone solved it?
Thanks

I have this problem, and nothing appears to work.

"Spotlight Comments" in Finder Get Info window doesn't accept Clipboard contents

I wanted to paste caption and credit info from a NASA video download into the file's Spotlight Comments in the Get Info window. Done it in the past no problemo. Today it doesn't work.
Tried pasting the copied web page content to TextEdit and converting to plain text, copy again, paste still a no-go. Tried typing in the Spotlight Comments window, that works ok. Looked at the contents of the Clipboard and the text appears there, labeled either as rtf or text depending on where the text was pasted from (web or TextEdit).
Tried copying a couple of letters from the converted text, and they pasted ok into Spotlight Comments.
Suggestions to make the Clipboard contents paste?
Thanks.

On further inspection, it appears that the contents of the old Comments field are carried forward into the Spotlight Comments field.

Get Album Art doesn't work

I've been confused by this since v.7 came out but it hasn't really bugged me till now.. but the Get Album Artwork function simply doesn't work for me. It doesn't do a **** thing. I click it and it seems like iTunes doesn't even do anything, and album artwork certainly does not appear in my library. Yes, I'm logged in to my iTS account.
Am I doing something wrong here? I haven't really been able to find someone else who has this problem.

GM Axis,
I can understand your frustration, and since most of my music was purchased from the iTunes Store, and tend to be only 1 genre, I sat down with my wife's computer and her iTunes Library.
Once I got the tags for album and artist straightened out, we were able to find 100 out of 104 albums via the iTunes Store. However, the key was correcting spelling, and album names. For example: My son imported a bunch of Elvis CDs after hearing him in Lilo and Stitch. He spelled Presley as Prezley. Correcting the tags with Get Info takes a while. You can select all the songs from a specific album and Get info on that all at once, and change multiple items at once.
The others include B-side singles never released in the US we imported from tape, and an album by a group that was never on CD, and the regional label is out of business.

Can't delete file from desktop. Can't get info. Doesn't appear in ls -a. What?

Hi folks,
I file has appeared on my desktop. I believe it's a temp file created while downloading something in Safari. When I try to delete it, I get "The item x can't be moved to the trash because it can't be deleted":
I tried right click > Get Info, and nothing happens (the info dialog does not appear).
I tried ls -al on my desktop, and the file doesn't appear in the list:
How do I get rid of this thing? What is it?

Weird. I guess if this were happening to me, I would see if the thing is still there after a reboot. If it is still there, I would boot with command-R and use Disk Utility to verify and repair the disk (not permissions).
The file name indicates you were downloading something to run under windows. Do you have windows?

"Open with" / Get Info / Change All not working

10.4.9 -- I want to open all PHP files with Gvim.
a) Gvim doesn't show in the "Open With" Applications list, I need to browse to find it.
b) When doing this from Get Info with the intent of "Change All" I select the "Open with" to "gvim.app" and select "Change All..." but the "Open With" selection reverts to TextEdit after answering "Continue"
c) This change stuck once, about a week ago, for a few days. But now it's back to TextEdit.
Am wondering where the resource can be found so I can hack this myself, for good.

I picked up "OnyX" and the associated "Maintenance" utilities. "Maintenance" has a tool to reset the LaunchServices database, and that seems to have allowed the association to stick.
http://www.titanium.free.fr
OnyX even has a formatting utility for the UN*X "Man" pages!
Tom_X -- now that's a cool feature, it restores some controls in a handy spot lost long ago... It didn't show php files in the list, so I added it and it shows gvim.app as associated already.

Bex Property of Info object doesn't work when Infoset is Used

Hi,
When I use Business partner info object ( example 0CRM_SALESP or 0BP_ACTIVIT etc) in a query build directly on a ODS(DSO) or infocube, the Bex setting "Query Def Filter Value Selection = Only Values in Info provider" defined in the 'Business Explorer" tab of the infoobject, works perfectly. This means that if the info object has 1 Million records in the master data table, but in the transaction data only 100 are involved, when you define a varialble restriction for the info object , in the selection screen the F4 will only show these 100 data as help.
Although this feature works fine when the query is directly developed ON THE INFO PROVIDER. However when I define a infoset on the same ODS and define a similar query, the F4 value shows all the data from the master data table instead of the ocurance in the transaction data( info provider)..
Is there any way , I can get over this issue.
Thanks
Arunava

Hi,
I guess, I couldn't ecplain the issue properly earlier.
What I am saying that even though I have the proper setting in the BEX tab ("Query Def Filter Value Selection = Only Values in Info provider") for the info object , It behaves differently if the query is defined directly on ODS then on the infoset which is built on top of the ODS.
When the query is build on the ODS the setting works fine
However when the query is defined on the Infoset, the F4 help get the value from the info object master data.
My question is , why this two different behaviour for the same info object? And how do I over conme this to get the same bahavious in info set as of the ODS.
Thanks
Arunava

MAX function to get recent date doesn't work as expected

Hi,
I recently started working on Oracle and came across this problem. I coded below given query to get the latest date from table and compare it with Sysdate + 1 timestamp. I am not able to understand what I coded wrong but the query gives me wrong results as explained below :
select NVL(MAX(to_char(max(last_update),'mm/dd/yyyy hh12:mi:ss AM')), to_char(sysdate + 1,'mm/dd/yyyy')||' 12:00:00 AM')
from Audit_Table_Name
where col1 = 'AA'
and location_type = 'STATE'
and original_flag = 'Y'
group by col1,location_type,original_flag;
Here Max(last_update) from Audit Table Contains value --> 08/25/2009 12:00:00 AM
Note : Data type of last_update is Date
so ideally speaking it should give 08/26/2009 12:00:00 AM but surprisingly it is giving 08/25/2009 12:00:00 AM as output. Anyone can explain why this is happening and what we need to do to get correct results?
Regards,
Amol

1) Why would you expect this to return a date of 8/26? NVL returns the first parameter unless it is NULL. If the first parameter is NULL, it returns the second parameter. Since
MAX(to_char(max(last_update),'mm/dd/yyyy hh12:mi:ss AM'))returns a non-NULL value, that value will be returned. Oracle never needs to evaluate the second parameter
to_char(sysdate + 1,'mm/dd/yyyy')||' 12:00:00 AM'You state that you want to compare the MAX( last_update ) to SYSDATE + 1. Your code isn't doing a comparison now. And it's not clear from your description what comparison you actually want to do. Can you elaborate a bit on what you want to compare and what the output should be depending on the result of that comparison?
2) You almost certainly want to do as much of the logic as possible using dates and only convert to a string at the very end. Otherwise, you risk comparing two strings that represent dates using string comparison semantics and getting a result you don't expect.
3) My guess (and it is just a guess) is that you want something like
SELECT GREATEST( max(last_update), trunc(sysdate+1) )or
SELECT TO_CHAR( GREATEST( max(last_update), trunc(sysdate+1) ), 'mm/dd/yyyy hh12:mi:ss AM' )Justin

Get-DfsrBacklog cmdlet doesn't work from remote computer (pssession)

Hi there!
I try to manage our Server 2012 R2 boxes from a Windows 7 remote machine using PowerShell. For some reason the cmdlet "Get-DFSRbacklog" seems not working remotly. The same cmdlet work when logging in locally to the server(s) with the
same credentials. UAC is turned off on the target machines and i have local admin permissions on this servers using my domain account.
What i do is:
Enter-PSSession <servername>
Get-DfsrBacklog -SourceComputerName <servername> -DestinationComputerName <servername>
Then i receive the following error:
Get-DfsrBacklog : Could not retrieve the backlog information. Replication group: "*" Replicated folder: "*" Source
computer: <servername> Destination computer: <servername> Confirm that you are running in an elevated Windows PowerShell
session and are a member of the local Administrators group on the destination computer. The destination computer must
also be accessible over the network, and have the DFSR service running. This cmdlet does not support WMI calls for the
following or earlier operating systems: Windows Server 2012. Details: WinRM cannot process the request. The following
error with errorcode 0x8009030e occurred while using Kerberos authentication: A specified logon session does not

Possible causes are:
-The user name or password specified are invalid.
-Kerberos is used when no authentication method and no user name are specified.
-Kerberos accepts domain user names, but not local user names.
-The Service Principal Name (SPN) for the remote computer name and port does not exist.
-The client and remote computers are in different domains and there is no trust between the two domains.
After checking for the above issues, try the following:
-Check the Event Viewer for events related to authentication.
-Change the authentication method; add the destination computer to the WinRM TrustedHosts configuration setting or
use HTTPS transport.
Note that computers in the TrustedHosts list might not be authenticated.
   -For more information about WinRM configuration, run the following command: winrm help config.

Any ideas?

This article
suggests that you're logged into your Win7 management machine with local credentials. You should try the Get-DfsrBacklog command with domain credentials:
Client is in a domain: Attempting to connect to a remote server by using implicit credentials that are the local administrator's credentials on the client. Instead, use domain credentials that are recognized by the domain of the target server, or right-click
the server entry in the Servers tile, click Manage As, and then specify credentials of an administrator on the target server.
