How can I tell if my problem is with iPhoto or if the SD card ?

I'm trying to import photos from an SD card, and when I attach my camera (or insert the SD card - I've tried both ways), iPhoto shows me thumbnails of the pictures, and tells me they are already imported. But when I disconnect my camera, the photos aren't in iPhoto. If I click on "Import Photos" nothing happens, although I get a message telling me to wait until the photos have finished importing, if I try to close iPhoto.
Is there a way to tell if my problem is with iPhoto, my iMac, or the SD card?

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
Post back with the result.

Selected guides should become light blue when they're selected. My guides are using the default color of cyan and the guide on the right is selected in the image below.
If you have your guides set to the light blue selection inside the Guides Color drop down menu then you won't see a difference because that specific light blue is the color the guide changes to when it's selected. You can also click on the swatch in the Guides and Grids preferences to select any color you want from a color picker.

How can i tell what computers are authorized with my itunes account?

My iTunes app tells me that I have 5 computers currently authorized with my account. How can I tell which ones they are??? I've checked all of my old desktops and laptops to deauthorize them but they indicate that they were never authorized. Confusing. Why go to the trouble managing how many are authorized if you don't provide a means to list them??? I realize that I can deauthorize them all (the only choice!) but, in doing so and reauthorizing the ones I need, does this mean that I lose the ability to access previously purchased music on them?? I must say that, for the ease of use of the Apple apps, I expected more. Thanks:-) !

You cannot. You can see the number of authorised machines.
Go to itunes Store, Select Account from Quick Links on the right.
If you already have 5 authorised but can't remember which the machines are you have the option of once every 90 days to deauthorize all comuters and then individually reauthorising the ones you want.
On each machine in iTunes Click Store > Authorise this computer

HT1178 My Time Capsule is only blinking amber. My computer tried to backup but I don't know how to tell if it did in fact back up the data. How can I tell if it backed up and why doesn't the light show green?

Just purchased a Time Capsule. Had to call Comcast to disable the WIFI and have internet connection. The time capsule though blinks amber and the Airport Utility shows blinking amber light and has a red circle with the number 1 in it. After connecting, my computer tried doing a backup for the first time and it appeared that it was backing up and finished although I don't know how to check to make sure that it did backup. How do I check and shouldn't the light on the time capsule be blinking green and the airport utility show green?

TM will show it has done a backup.. Look at the info.. when was the backup completed??
If you want more details install the widget.

The time capsule though blinks amber and the Airport Utility shows blinking amber light and has a red circle with the number 1 in it.
There is an error.. probably trivial.. firmware update, default password..
Open the airport utility and find out what the error is.
Simply click the TC and see status in the summary page.. it will list all the errors and what you should do.. fix or ignore them. ie this TC has an error.. default password.. I chose to ignore.. when I "fix" the problem the LED goes green.
Here is additional TC.. it is blinking amber with faults.
Click the fault. eg default password.
You can ignore or edit .. if you click edit it will take you to the full setup where you can change the settings.
I ignored my errors and now it is green..

Question: how can I tell Bridge I want to set PS CS5 as the default program for opening .psd files

How do I change a specific file type association in Bridge CS5, namely the .psd file type? I had installed Photoshop CS6, but am unable to use it due to extreme slowness (another problem, not for this question). I have reverted to using Photoshop CS5 and Bridge CS5.
Now when I double-click on a .psd file in Bridge CS5 to open it (or right-click on the .psd file) , the file opens up in the glacially slow CS6. I went to edt>preferences>file type associations to change the association to Photoshop CS5, but .psd is not listed as a file type (.jpg and .dng and a host of other file types are listed). How can I change the association if I cannot find the file type? (BTW: I have changed the file type association in Windows Explorer; I am running Windows XP.) I know I can open PS CS5 manually and scroll to the image I want to open but, to my mind, that defeats one of the main purposes of Bridge.
Any advice you can offer would be gratefully received.
Thank you.
Heather

This is mac screenshot, but should be in same place.
Win 7 works very goo on my home computer, much better security. One problem myslef inlcuded have had is files permissisons, especially on external drives, and you have to dig to china in the menus to fix it, or else you can't save over the same file name. So if you plan on upgrading do it on a day you can troublshoot to fix that annoyance, though at this point might be good to wait for win8.

How can I set a symbol to hide with a code in the symbol?

Hmmm... I will try to explain this question:
I have my main timeline. It is the homepage of my website. The subsites are symbols filled with content. They are 100% of my composition and should overlay over my homepage.
So when I click on the menu buttons on my homepage I can set the symbols (subpages, they are turned off, hidden) on and they will show and play. For that I am using this code:
sym.$("mySymbol").show();
sym.getSymbol("mySymbol").play(0);
This works perfectly.
So I actually looking for the code I put on a kind of closebutton. The closebutton jumps to the fade out transition. Then should close the compositsion - set it to hide. I am back on my homepage where I left it.
I tried to put
sym.$("mySymbol").hide();
on a script in the timeline but that doesnt work. So can anybody tell me the right code?
I searched a lot but couldnt find a solution.
Thanks a lot for help!!!!

There is also the possibility to use a variable but this might not be what you want.
In this example you can play each page and use the close button to close the current page. If you try to play the other pages without closing the current, it will not work - only the close button with work to reset all the page's button to be able to play.
Just try it:
click a page button -It will play that page - now try to click the other page buttons - will not work.
click the close button - it will close the current page.
Now you can clck any page and it will play and so on.

How can I have links within emails read with Seamonkey open on the default Firefox browser and not the Seamonkey browser?

I use the SeaMonkey 2.0 mailer for my email client and Firefox 3.6 for my default browser. A link embedded in an email (read with SeaMonkey) opens the SeaMonkey browser and not Firefox. How can I have it open on Firefox?
(SeaMonkey is not set up as the default browser and Firefox is.)

How can I share Quicken and other apps with another user on the same iMac?

I would like to share some apps including Quicken with anoter user on the same iMac. I have put the Quicken app and the .QFX file in /usrs/share and changed the permissions to R/W on both files but when I log in as the other user and run Quicken it does not use the .QFX file and instead comes up with no accounts.

The Quicken app. should be in the Applications folder at the root of Macintosh HD. It's accessible to all users from there.
To share a file, (this from Finder Help menu)
"Sharing files with others who use your computer
You can share files with others who use your computer by placing the files in the Public folder in your home folder. Anyone with an account on your computer can read or copy the items you put in your Public folder (except for your Drop Box folder, which only you can open).
To share files using your Public folder:
Copy the files you want to share into your Public folder, inside your home folder.
To give a copy of a file directly to another person, copy it to their Drop Box folder (inside their Public folder), where only they can see it."
When opening a file just double-click the file - it will open the application automatically.

How can I tell if my iTunes library is backed up onto the Cloud?

I'm concerned about my iTunes library accidentally being deleted (after an incident in which I deleted an entire genre, then retrieved it from my trash can) and I would like to make sure all my music is backed up safely so I can retrieve it if this happens again. I'm not really sure how the Cloud works, so if someone could explain it to me that would be great. (Or if you think there is a better way to keep my library secure)

Drag the entire iTunes library to an external drive. The cloud stores some iTunes Store purchases(which types depend on your country) as long as they remain available in the iTunes Store. If you've subscribed to iTunes Match, it'll store music from other sources as well.

How can I tell which optional extras come with MSI cards?

I was about ready to buy an MSI 9800GTX but then I quickly realised that MSI have at least four optional extras for this card and I have no way of knowing what card comes with what.
MSI's description:
MSI 9800GTX
Optional extras: External SPDIF Cable, Internal SPDIF Cable, HDMI Cable, DVI/HDMI Adapter
Retailer's sites:
Aria
CCL
Komplett
Dabs
Scan
Now can anyone spot any clues as to which extras come with those cards?

Thanks guys. Where I am we don't have that many shops that sell this kind of electronic equipment. The only shops around here are all run by PC World and none of them sell the 9800GTX (they only sell one make of GX2 for example). That's why I have to depend on web retailers. I tried calling MSI UK (they don't seem to offer an email service) but there was no one there - I'm guessing they're closed at the weekend. I might try again on Monday.
I know how you feel. PC World are an utter rip off, I would NEVER(!!) buy from there.

Suddenly some bookmark folders do not open anymore when I go under "bookmarks" if I use them in the sidebar it works. How can I fix this, it is only with 2 folders, all the other work fine.

I have created several bookmark folders and everything has worked fine until recently. Suddenly 2 folders do not open anymore when you hover the mouse over the folder.
If I have the bookmarks in the sidebar everything works fine.

-> click '''Firefox''' button and click '''Exit'''
Start Firefox in Safe Mode by Holding down the '''Option''' key while starting your Mozilla application.
As an alternate method, go to Utilities (in the Applications folder) and open Terminal, then run:
/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin -safe-mode
-> Firefox Safe Mode window will appear. DON'T SELECT ANY OPTIONS, just click '''Continue in Safe Mode'''
Firefox will open up with just basic Firefox. Check and tell if its working while you are in Safe Mode.

How can I synchronize my iTunes on PC with my iPod on the iPad?

How can I best use an external editor with iPhoto?

I want to use Pixelmator or Elements to edit photos in iPhoto, but I really don't want to export/import them every time. Is there an "edit with an external editor" option I haven't found?

Hope this helps:
Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 6 the Saving File preferences should be configured: "On First Save: Save Over Current File". Also I suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.
If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
Happy Holidays
