How can I set pixelmator as my external editor in iPhoto

I am trying to set pixelmator in iphoto so I can edit using external editor. Any suggestions?
Thank you in advanced
Slapshot2deface

Hello all. I'm hoping this thread is still fresh enough that I can glom onto it.
I just downloaded Pixelmator a couple days ago.  Also allowed the recent iPhoto update.  I do not have the above mentioned option in my iPhoto Preference - General.  Mine appears in the Advanced section and my only choice besides iPhoto for editing is Preview. 
Any ideas how I can make it Pixelmator if it doesn't show in the list?
Thanks

  • Tried to use PixelMator as default external editor but iPhoto has only final cut pro as external editor and won't let me change?

    I tried to set up Pixelmator as external iPhoto editor bot only option in Preferences> advanced> edit photos is iPhoto or Final Cut Pro?

    You have previously set FCP as the external, editor - in the iPhoto preferences select FCP again and a window will open for you to find and select Pixelmator - if that a photo editor ?

  • Have set Elements 12 as external editor for iPhoto =, but pictures identified for editing don't appear in Elements

    Have just installed Elements 12 and nominated it as the external editor for iPhoto. When I identify a pic for edit in iPhoto and direct it to Elements it doesn't appear in Elements.
    Help please

    Usually that means you selected the logical file as your external editor instead of the correct one. The actual PSE editor is buried inside the Support Files folder:

    How can I set up my TC as an external hard drive for my iMac and my MacBook?

    Help me please.

    Hi,
    Thank you for great advice re SuperDuper.
    You wasnt to know we didnt live in  USA.  We will try to get the full retail version of Leopard off the net.  We will also phone round the apple resellers.
    In the meantime, we are happy running Tiger with the knowledge that SuperDuper has cloned our hard drive in case of a disaster.
    SuperDuper recommended backing up the hard drive with a new user account if we were using filevault on the master account.  We backed up our hard drive without creating a new user with filevault as we could not read the pdf `Instuctions as preview was not responding.
    Is this copy safe to use as a bootable drive or should we copy our entire HD again using a new user account without filevault?

  • How can I set up an external monitor to extend my screen in windows 7 bootcamp?

    How can I set up an external monitor to extend my screen in windows 7 bootcamp?  I have updated bootcamp to the latest version.  The monitor I have works while I am using Mac OS X. While in bootcamp the monitor is dectected and I am able to select the settings and displays however the external monitor remains alseep.  I hooked it up using a mini display port to VGA adapter.  Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    On your Windows desktop right click and select Screen resolution from the menu. You should see a window like this:
    Make sure you select Extend and then set your resolutions for each monitor.
    If this does not work for you try asking on a Windows forum about extending displays to a second monitor.

  • How can I set up a back up hard drive on airport extreme

    I have an external harddrive that was plugged into my airport extreme. Apple seemed to eliminate my abilty to back up wirelessly in one of the updates. How can I set this up again? Does anyone know a way around this?
    Thanks,

    Ah, I remember those links now.  I was thinking something along the lines of:
    Never consider any computer a data storage device, rather a data creation ,sending, and manipulation device. Anyone who thinks data is safe on any computer, even copied upon multiple partitions is making a mistake.
    Never backup your data exclusively upon magnetic hard drives or flash storage, nor consider same since magnetic storage degrades over time even under ideal conditions.
    Store important data on multiple servers on multiple continents. 
    Burn important data onto multiple copies of archival DVDs and store same in cool dark fireproof safes, multiple places.
    Don’t burn data onto junk DVD’s purchased from consumer level electronics stores. These are not archival long life DVD’s nor reliable, nor trustworthy. Archival DVD blanks such as Taiyo Yuden, rated for 100+ years are what the pros use, these are made by JVC and are professional grade DVD blanks.
    Most people have never heard of archival DVDs, however their cost is only 30% more than junk-level DVD blanks which are only rated for 5-10 years. Also the reject rate on the inferior DVD is around 15%, the cost is almost identical between the WORST DVD blanks and the BEST DVD blanks.
    Most importantly know that 2 copies of your data is 1, and 1 is none, and 1000 copies stored in one place or building, is also the same as none due to possible fire.
    Always consider and expect your computer’s hard drive to completely crash anytime, at all times, and you should keep a cloned and updated hard drive handy at all times to return to immediate productivity and utterly avoid programs and parameter reinstallation.  Nothing is quicker than taking out a dead HD and tossing in a new updated cloned HD for getting back to 100% in under 20 mins!
    Decentralized Omnipresent Data (D.O.D.)
    (something I coined an age ago)
    Backing up data to:
    Multiple HD in multiple locations
    On multiple servers on multiple continents, private and public websites, anonymous data farms. (very easy actually)
    Burned onto archival optical and magnetic storage
    Have unclassified data possessed by multiple people in multiples places.
    When your data becomes both everywhere and nowhere, accessible to all, destructible by none, cannot be collected together or permanently retrieved under any circumstances, you have Decentralized Omnipresent Data (D.O.D.) protection rivaling that of large governments.

  • How can I set Array field which reside in a Structure field?

    I use Adobe java XMP toolkit.
    There are a few methods for setting structure and array items.
    setStructField() and appendArrayItem().
    However ducu stated that member of Structure may be array or structure, moreover array items also may be arrays or structures.
    So how can I set Array field in Structure or Structure field in Array???
    Thanks
    Andrey

    OK, it worked first time (without exception) as I tried to set value of EXISTING field.
    The trick is to add array or struct BEFORE setting their values.
    This short example shows how it works:
    XMPSchemaRegistry registry = XMPMetaFactory.getSchemaRegistry();
        registry.registerNamespace(extNS, "pdfaExtension");
        registry.registerNamespace(shemaNS, "pdfaSchema");
        registry.registerNamespace(propertyNS, "pdfaProperty");
        XMPMeta m = XMPMetaFactory.create();
        m.appendArrayItem(extNS, "pdfaExtension:schemas", new PropertyOptions().setArray(true), "", new PropertyOptions().setStruct(true));
        m.setProperty(extNS, "pdfaExtension:schemas[1]/pdfaSchema:prefix", "dc");
        m.setProperty(extNS, "pdfaExtension:schemas[1]/pdfaSchema:namespaceURI", "http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/");
        m.setProperty(extNS, "pdfaExtension:schemas[1]/pdfaSchema:schema", "Dublin Core Schema");
        m.appendArrayItem(extNS, "pdfaExtension:schemas[1]/pdfaSchema:property", new PropertyOptions().setArrayOrdered(true), null, new PropertyOptions()
            .setStruct(true));
        m.setProperty(extNS, "pdfaExtension:schemas[1]/pdfaSchema:property[1]/pdfaProperty:name", "contributor", null);
        m.setProperty(extNS, "pdfaExtension:schemas[1]/pdfaSchema:property[1]/pdfaProperty:category", "external", null);
        m.setProperty(extNS, "pdfaExtension:schemas[1]/pdfaSchema:property[1]/pdfaProperty:description",
            "Contributors to the resource (other than the authors).", null);
        m.setProperty(extNS, "pdfaExtension:schemas[1]/pdfaSchema:property[1]/pdfaProperty:valueType", "bag ProperName", null);
        m.appendArrayItem(extNS, "pdfaExtension:schemas[1]/pdfaSchema:property", new PropertyOptions().setArrayOrdered(true), null, new PropertyOptions()
            .setStruct(true));
        m.setProperty(extNS, "pdfaExtension:schemas[1]/pdfaSchema:property[2]/pdfaProperty:name", "coverage", null);
        m.setProperty(extNS, "pdfaExtension:schemas[1]/pdfaSchema:property[2]/pdfaProperty:category", "external", null);
        m.setProperty(extNS, "pdfaExtension:schemas[1]/pdfaSchema:property[2]/pdfaProperty:description", "The extent or scope of the resource.", null);
        m.setProperty(extNS, "pdfaExtension:schemas[1]/pdfaSchema:property[2]/pdfaProperty:valueType", "Text", null);

  • How can I change the external editor in iphoto?

    When I go to Preferences, the only option that pops up in General Edit is Graphic Converter (formerly used). How can I change the external editor to Photoshop Elements 6? Also, can I drag and drop a photo from iPhoto onto the Photoshop elements 6 icon in the dock and do some editing and saving without corrupting my iPhoto library?

    I do not remember how (if) iPhoto 6 handles PSE6 as an external editor - in iPhoto '08 you can set any program as one - try going to the preference that has graphic converter in it and selecting it - you probably will get a select dialogue that will let you choose a new external editor
    It is not recommend that you ever save any files directly into the iPhoto library - if you can not get PSE6 set as the external editor then you should export your photos, edit them and save and then import the new photo into iPhoto
    But I believe you will be able to set PSE6

  • What is the default identity store - and how can I set it?

    Hi,
    I'm running Webcenter on WLS, and using WLS and JPS for the authentication of users. On the WLS Console, if I go to Security Realms -> myrealm -> Providers, I have a list of four different providers.
    If I understand correctly, these four providers are my identity stores. How can I set one as the 'default' identity store? Or see which one is currently the default?
    The reason I'm asking is I have the following code in Webcenter to create a new user in the Active Directory:
          // Get the default identity store
          IdentityStore idStore = WCSecurityUtility.getDefaultIdentityStore();
          // Get the user manager object
          UserManager usermgr = idStore.getUserManager();
          usermgr.createUser(loginName, password.toCharArray(), propertySet);So I have a utility Java class which gives me the "default identity store". Now I want to change the WLS configuration so that the Active Directory in which I want to create new users is the "default" identity store.
    Thanks in advance for any help,
    Ludovic

    Hi,
    Thanks a lot for your help and providing this link. I'd actually already looked at that before, but I don't understand how it clarifies what the default identity store is. The relevant part is this, if I understand correctly:
    OPSS initializes the identity store service with the LDAP authenticator chosen from the list of configured LDAP authenticators according to the following algorithm:
    1.    Consider the subset of LDAP authenticators configured. Note that, since the context is assumed to contain at least one LDAP authenticator, this subset is not empty.
    2.    Within that subset, consider those that have set the maximum flag. The flag ordering used to compute this subset is the following:
        REQUIRED > REQUISITE > SUFFICIENT > OPTIONAL
        Again, this subset (of LDAPs realizing the maximum flag) is not empty.
    3.    Within that subset, consider the first configured in the context.Step (1) will match 2 external AD's and the built-in WLS LDAP, so 3 in total.
    Step (2) will still match 3 in total, as they are all 'sufficient'. In my setup, I need them all to be 'sufficient'.
    Step (3) is a step I don't understand. What is "the first configured in the context"? What context? Do they mean the one that was first created? In that case I can't change the default, right?
    Or do they mean "the first in the list on the WLS Console"?
    Best regards,
    Ludovic

  • How can I save Aperture in an external disk?

    How can I save Aperture in an external hard disk?
    Thanks,

    In addition to mende1's advice:
    The Aperture application should be installed in the "Applications" folder; otherwise software update will not work.
    Your Aperture Library can be stored where you want it, but if your Aperture library is referenced (if you are storing your original image files outside the Aperture Library), you will need to use the command "File > Relocate Original" to move the original image files to your external hard drive as well.  Check the "Import panel" in Aperture, how the option "Store Files" in the "Aperture" brick of the import panel is set - "in their current location" or "In the Aperture Library".

  • How can I set my WebI filters to Null and not Null

    Folks,
    I have created a report in WebI and now I am to set up some filters as Null and some Not Null.
    How can I set my WebI filters to Null and not Null?
    Regards,
    Bashir Awan

    Hi,
    As you said you could do it at the report level and also at the universe level.
    One more way is to create the filters in the universe levele and add them in thequery filter.
    Ex: in the filter you need to write :
    Column1 is null and and column 2 is not null etc.
    Hope this will help.
    If this did't  solve your problem then please explain it in detail.
    Cheers,

  • How can I set up Cinema Display as a main screen and leave my macbook pro as a second screen instead?

    How can I set up Cinema Display as a main screen and leave my macbook pro as a second screen instead?

    I learned that the Dock is positioned at the chosen edge of whatever Display is positioned farthest to that side.  E.g. for the Dock to be positioned on the right side of the Cinema Display (instead of the right side of the MacBook), the Cinema Display must be oriented (by dragging) to the right of the MacBook monitor on the "Arrangement" tab of the Displays Preference Panel.
