How can I prevent blurry thumbnails aperture 3.2.1

Hi, have gone back into previous Aperture libraries and found some if not all thumbnails are blurry. Have tried and tried to find an answer to this query all over internet but nothing useful comes up. Have just created a new library and this seems fine at the moment, but not convinced it won't happen again!
Has anyone resolved this?

What version are the libraries? The masters and versions are OK only the previews?
If the new libraries thumbs are OK I would select one of the old libraries and regenerate all the previews and see if that fixes the problem in that library. You can also regenerate the thumbs.
It has happened when switching versions and upgrading to have problems like this. If masters and versions are ok and regenerating the previews and thumbs fixes the problem then usually no further action is needed.
Post back if this doesn;t resolve the issue of if you have other problems with he previous libraries.
regards

How can I read blurry thumbnails? My PDF thumbnails are unreadable, even when I zoom.

I need to reorganize a PDF document that I created by merging PDF files. The thumbnails are too blurry to read, making it un usable! Im on a deadline!

Hi 321csthelp,
What version of Acrobat are you using, and what OS/version? What happens when you change the Page Display preferences to use the System Setting for resolution, as opposed to a custom resolution?
Best,

How can I prevent Bridge from altering my photos?

HELP!!!
Within the past few days my Bridge CS4 program has been making my life miserable. I had been utilizing the program to batch photos from my extensive photo library, rename them, sort them (i.e., change sort/ordinal number), and the like without any difficulty and then suddenly, after executing such processes my thumbnails turned completely white and would not open in Bridge, Photoshop CS4 Extended - much less anything else. I tried reopening them as .jpg's, .psd's, .tiff's to no avail. I went into properties on each photo and checked the "open with" tab, and it noted that the photo was not recognized. I had some moderate success opening them with Quicktime Picture Viewer, but converting them back to a Bridge readable format (i.e., their original state) proved impossible. Having noticed that Quicktime had hijacked nearly my entire photo opening process, I uninstalled it in the hope that it would solve the problem. It didn't. I then went into Bridge and Photoshop CS4 preferences to try and modify how photos were opened, and couldn't seem to find anything applicable. I did, however, increase the memory and cache allocated to each program substantially.
Last night I ran into more problems with Bridge. While scanning both photo negatives and prints into Bridge and saving them into various files, I encountered the same problem indicated in paragraph one. I tried scanning several of them a second time and succeeded; however, I had to save them to a different file and give them dissimilar names in .tiff format. In the process I found more than a dozen ways to spell "Mexico," "Tokyo," and "Ukraine"! They would not save as .jpg's or .psd's.
I use Windows Vista Home Premium SP1, have a Pentium 4 Dual Core (2.8) processor, 4 GB Memory, Nvidia GE Force 7600 video card (yes, the drivers are up to date), and Hewlett Packard Photosmart C7180 and C7280 printers for scanning. All of the photos involved are stored on a Maxtor One Touch 1TB Turbo auxillary hard drive.
Also, could anyone suggest how I can get the SD/MMC card reader on my PC to work?
Thanks to any and all for assisting me with my problem.

Thank you curt y for your quick response. I have seen your recommendations on the adobe forums link in the past and many of your solutions
seem to have helped other people with Bridge problems. I took your suggestion and gave it a whirl - all preferences were restored to defaults - and the problem continues. I get the feeling the problems lies with the program's interaction with Windows.
Having tried a few more things, I've found that I can move the photo shell (the inscription underneath the thumbnail states, "Window Shell Common") to my desktop and open it there with Photoshop (i.e., going through the song and dance of "open with" and clicking on the CS4 icon, where it opens up in RAW). I must then move it over to Photoshop CS4 and save it as a .jpg or a .psd. Unfortunately, after all this it still won't open in Bridge. By all appearances, Bridge somehow has become corrupted and I'm probably going to have to do a complete Photoshop CS4 uninstall and reinstall.
I've spent hundreds - if not thousands - of hours scanning into my system some 10,000 photographs of my travels (yes, they are backed up on discs), and Bridge should not be negatively impacting my ability to organize and manipulation them as is happening now. If the uninstall/reinstall does not resolve the problem, I'll be back on this forum for more suggestions.
As for the card reader issue, I'm well aware of the 2GB/over 2GB issue. I typically use a 4GB or more card in my camera. I can download fine through my HP 7180 and 7280 card readers, but my HP 1518n card reader is a different story. I'll work a little more on it, too.
Thanks again.

Have you tried resetting your preferences by holding down the Ctrl key and starting Bridge? You will get a reset window, choose all 3 options.
The only thing I know about card readers is that there are 2 versions. One for cards of 2 gigs or less, and one for HD cards over 2 gigs. Make sure card and reader match.

Did you try Parental Controls?

See if that does the trick: I think there's a way for you to request a password for purchases, but still be logged in.

You can prevent it from being printed by applying a security policy to it
in Acrobat. The rest can't be prevented, unless you spend a LOT of money
on DRM protection.

Prior saved .pdf sometimes has blacked out content. How can I prevent this?

I use Mac OS 9 Maverick, read email in Mail.app and Yahoo.Mail, switch between Safari and Firefox for browsing (because Safari does not allow Flash videos to appear on pages). When I want to save an email or an html file or report as .pdf, I use Command-P and select Save As PDF from the Print popup. Normally, I can go back years later and read the .pdf document in the Home File I filed it in using Adobe Reader. Sometimes, however, when I open a .pdf file--and I cannot tell prior to opening it--all of the content has been blacked out. It is as if someone redacted the document after filing it, which I don't do.
How can I prevent these redactions? The content being blacked out varies from extremely personal and important health files to simple email correspondence I want to save. Sometimes I have paid for a document and have to contact the publisher to send hard copy via USPS due to this problem.
What am I missing here? Do I need a specific plug-in? Is there a way to retrieve the blacked-out content from my computer stored file?

How can I prevent the settings on iMessage from changing each time I sync the devices with iTunes on our iMac?

Each time I sync an apple device (iPad, iPad mini, iPhone) with iTunes on our iMac the settings on iMessage and phone settings change. We use the same Apple ID and have different e-mail addresses and phone numbers; however, each time a device is sync'd on iTunes on our iMac, the iMessage settings and phone settings are changed so that we all each get each other's text messages and phone calls. After the device is sync'd/charged, I have to go into each device (all of them somehow update when only one is sync'ing) and re-set the settings to what we want. How can I prevent settings from being changed each time?

Okay I've tried safe mode. Let it run down to 98%, plugged it in, locked the screen, and waited. A few minutes later, the screen came on showing the 100% icon at the top right, full battery icon just to the left of the time, 100% text to the left of that.
I'm not going to do a hard reset until I have confirmation that this is not normal behavior for the phone because that's going to take hours of my time and gigabytes of data transfer to get all of my media and apps back on the phone and configured.
After all my griping, I do have to give credit where it's due. This phone is much more efficient than my Galaxy Nexus. I left the S5 running in WiFi hotspot mode while on battery last night. It still had over 50% left on the battery. The Galaxy Nexus would be stone dead after about 4 hours. I can live with that if I have to but I'd really rather be able to leave it on the charger at night.

My neighbour's Mac Book Pro shows up as discoverable when Bluetooth is turned on in my iPad Air. How can I block her device? How can I prevent her pairing with my iPad Air. I need Bluetooth on to play music over my system.

If your device is discoverable, the other BT device would try (I am not sure if that would be successful). If it was, it would appear in your system preferences>Bluetooth.
Take a look at this re: security:
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10786
This is from another Apple article:
Use Bluetooth
You can wirelessly transfer files between computers—even Mac to PC—using the Bluetooth File Exchange utility. You can even browse selected devices and retrieve files remotely. For extra security, you can stipulate that only trusted devices be allowed to connect to your Mac, and 128-bit over-the-air encryption is also available

P.S. Since I have not had the issue, I have not researched this before. Thank you for making me look into BT security

If I have multiple email accounts, how can I prevent one of them from sending email?

If set up multiple email accounts in Thunderbird, how can I prevent one of them from sending email, while allowing others to send?

Simple answer:
do not use the email address when sending or replying or forwarding emails. Sending is not automatic, you have to generate the email and click on a Send button.
You could use an smtp server that will not allow sending using the incorrect server for the email address, so that it cannot send, but if you accidentally use the email address you may get an error message, but at least the email will not be sent. Do this here:
Tools > Account Settings for the mail account.
bottom right Outgoing Server - select one that will not accept sending using wrong email address
OR
in Outgoing Server(SMTP) select the server you are using for that account
click on 'Edit'
deliberately make an error in the server name - remove the port details etc.
So the details are wrong and cannot send.

How can I update the thumbnails in the slide panel when a slide has been changed?

When the text in a slide has been changed, how can you update the thumbnail in the slide panel to reflect this change?
We translated slides, but the slides in the slide panel are still in English.
Thanks for your help.

the slides should update automatically as you type
are you using a theme you created yourself, or one you have added for this show?
when you play the show, does the slides show correctly? If they are OK you could still show the presentation.
also what Mac are you using and what graphic crd is installed?

How can I prevent two different profiles from interfering with one another?

I have a serious profiles problem. I created a new profile with Profile Manager and then copied a well-established profile's contents into its directory before starting the new profile. Now, when I start either profile, it contains whatever tabs I had in the previously opened profile. I deleted a bunch of tabs and a window from the new profile but when I opened it after having opened and closed the old profile, the tabs and window reappeared. If I open some tabs in the new profile and then close it and open the old profile, the tabs appear in it, and vice versa.
I open the original profile through a shell script:
<pre>/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox -P "profile 1"</pre>
I open the second one the same way but with the -no-remote parameter:
<pre>/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox -P "profile 1 clone" -no-remote</pre>
Why do the two profiles collide like that and how can I prevent this from happening?

Are you using Sync then ?
Or are you setting a bunch of tabs as the homepage ?
If you cloned a profile they will start off the same and that will include the set of open tabs from the file ''sessionstore.js'' however profiles are independent and so should have there own sessionstore and History once they have been used.
