How can I restore to the Browser View of Book, several missing photo's?

Ten photos are missing from the Browser View of the Book. The photos show up in the Photo View and are checked as being used. They also show up in the working screen view of the book. All other photos in the book show up. Why are the 10 missing? How can I restore just those photos and not all photos for that book? What difference would it make in sending that book to the printer?

I'm not sure of your question
Are you saying that when you view the thumbnails of the book at the top or the screen that some pages do not show the photos even though they are in the book below?
If so that is a minor bug in iPhoto '09 - you can ignore it - it is just a display issue -- I forget exactly how but you can force a refresh of the book thumbnails - maybe double clicking on the book page - or maybe on the thumbnail
But in any case your book is fine (you should preview it before sending - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 )

It will work definitly. But turn off the phone first and make sure you push all three buttons tight and turn on the phone. You have to keep them pressed until handshaking logo or pin enter is appear. I have use it so many time since my beloved 6600.

How can I restore sliced image from web page?

http://www.jimmyrea.com
This website was created several years back with Fireworks and Dreamweaver. The client wants to have some changes done, but wants to keep it pretty much as it is and they don't have much of a budget to work with. Is there any way that I could restore the FW image png file from the web page? The original png was lost. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

This may seem like closing the barn door after the cows have gone, but it's very important to keep your native project files on an external drive or in a zipped folder on your remote server in case you ever need them again.
If you use Firefox. Right click > Page Info > Media. You will see a list of image files used on the page. It may take some doing to reconstruct your Native Fireworks comp from these slices, though. Depending on what needs to be changed, content vs cosmetic, you might be able to squeak by just editing a few slices.
I would probably want to ditch the MM image rollover menus in favor of an easier to maintain CSS styled list menu. Too bad the client can't afford a site wide re-design.

No F11- how can I recover factory image?

Hello, I am new to this forum. I am trying to fix a friend's laptop. His disk drive crashed and I had to install a new HDD.
Laptop is Flex 2-15D with UEFI and GPT disk format, Windows 8.1.
I managed to copy over the following partitions to the new HDD: WINRE_DRV SYSTEM_DRV(active) LRS_ESP LENOVO (drivers?) and PBR_DRV (recovery partition). I am missing the local_C drive and an undefined partition that was 128mb.
I believe I have the necessary partitions to do a factory recovery. I have no OS, of course, because I am missing the local_C drive that contained windows 8.1
When I power on, I get messages to allow entering the BIOS(UEFI) or to enter the boot menu to boot from CD, USB, HDD, etc. However, there is no F11 option to do a factory reset.
Can anyone help me recover the F11 function? I would think that if I could fix the boot manager, I could do a factory restore.
UPDATE
Whoa, I just found the NOVO button. It listed system restore as an option. When I selected it, it started loading windows and I thought it was going to be all good. Then I got a message saying onekey recovery partition was damaged..
Any suggesteions?

Hello zzmxj5,
Got your pm. I can't guarantee that this will work but you can give it a try. Just in case, try to make a backup of the recovered partitions just in case what follows will not be successful.
Rather than troubleshooting what you have accomplished so far I proposed that you make the pendrive project that I have given in this link (A DIY PROJECT: Creating a bootable OKR 8 Recovery USB Flash Drive (Rev 1.1)).
Instead of 16 GB use 32 GB flash drive. Here is the part that you need to modify: Refer to step V while copying the files as instructed in the indicated folders try to just supply what are missing, do not overwrite what's already in them. The reason is that the Evozi program already made the NOVO initiated OKR program operational. After making the pendrive, boot from it with the replacement drive connected.
That's it.
I hope this will help you and good luck!

How can I add new images to a saved book in Lightroom 4? Help please!

As the title suggests, I have created a saved book in LR4. I saved it not because I had finished but because I wanted to protect my work to date. Now I cannot add new images, although I can work with (move and remove) the exisintg images in the book.
I'm new to LR and can't help but feel that I'm missing something obvious. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Graham

Graham, switch to Grid view and drag the new photos to the book collection, which you'll find in the Collections panel. Then flip back to the Book module and you'll find the photos sat there in the Filmstrip waiting to be added to the book design.

How can I restore a single image from an aperture time machine backup, do I have to restore the entire library? that does not make sense

I hope there has been found a more efficiant solution for this, how can I restore a single image from an aperture time machine backup, I really hope I don't have to restore the entire library? that does not make sense
any suggestions?

Did you try browsing your backups in the Finder ? That is, do not go and "Enter Time Machine". Instead, navigate to your Time Machine backup via Finder and then manually go to the time period (by folder name) you are looking for ... when you find your Aperture library you can then "Show Package Contents" and find the Master you are looking for.

You may have the accessibility VoiceOver feature or another one turned on.
Triple click the home button and try going to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn VoiceOver off and any others off. You may have to use three fingers to scroll the screen to get there. If problems see the following for how to turn off via iTunes:

How can I restore up to the current day after restoring from a disk image??

I do two types of backups... Every night I connect my MB to TM and it backs up changes made throughout the day. On Saturdays I do the same. I bring up time machine and force to backup NOW. I then turn off time machine. I then perform an image backup of the full disk and keep that full weekly image offsite.
Well I upgraded to SL, and once again many of my drivers still don't work with SL particularly a Verizon Broadband card that I was provided drivers for that have a bug. So back to Leopard I go again.
I restored the full image backup using boot from DVD & Disk utility. This worked fast and quickly restored my MBP to exactly the point where I forced the backup to time-machine. I had done some work Sunday morning, and made changes to a bunch of files. I forced a TM backup later that night to ensure to catch these changes. After the failure of the SL load, I restored as I noted from an image which is much faster.
The question is... I am now at the same point of Sat morning. How can I restore to the point where I was Saturday night just before I did a test upgrade to SL if I touched a bunch of stuff. (Some work files, some personal files). So what I really need to restore is the files backed up after my full image from Saturday AM? Any way to do this without knowing the files I updated?
CLearly TM knows what files were changed and backed them up Saturday night before I performed the upgrade??
Thanks!
Mark

The easiest, most reliable way is to do a full system restore, as of the Saturday night Time Machine backup. See #14 in the Frequently Asked Questions *User Tip* at the top of this forum.
If for some reason you don't want to do that, you can get a list of the items that were actually backed-up, via +Time Tracker+ or +Backup Loupe.+ See #8 in the FAQ Tip.
