How do I cancel an import into calendar?

I want to back up my calendars before deleting them. I have quite a few. I did a test run to see if the back up worked and when I tried to reinstall my calendar I got the following message box. I have been clicking ignore, but there will be thousands of these and I can't get it to cancel. Is there a way to cancel the action of importing the backed up calendar?
I have tried forcing calendar to quit and I have rebooted the computer, but each time I reopen calendar, these boxes appear again. Please help me :-)

Use force quit from the -menu to quit iPhoto.
Select the iPhoto Library in the Finder. By default it is in your Pictures folder.
Ctrl-click or right-click the iPhoto lIbrary. Select "Show package contents" from the panel, that will pop up.
Look for a folder named "Importing" or "Import". Remove this folder, but don't touch anything else.
Then launch iPhoto again.
If iPhoto now is working again, check the folder you removed, if there are any photos that you want to keep and save them.

  • Import into calendar

    1) my wife wanted my work schedule
    2) to test - I exported it into a file and try to reimport it
    3) for every date, I am getting an error message. "the event "    " Was rejected by iCloud because it already exists"   => Ignore, try again, revert to server"
    I probably have several thousand of these, going back years.
    I can't seem to stop the import - force quit and restart and it starts up again.
    I may have just rendered my calendar program totally useless. How do I stop this import.

    Select Force Quit.
    Under the Apple in the Menu bar select Force Quit.
    Select Calendar > Quit.
    You can select to share a calendar with your wife. No need to do the export option.
    iCloud: Share a calendar or reminder list with others

  • How to un-nest keywords imported into Lightroom 1.1?

    Greetings:
    When I updated Bridge 1 to 2, I didn't realize that the update changed what simply used to be structural sets of keywords (the set title was not written into metadata) into nested parent child structure. I have since discovered that putting square brackets around the name of the newly formed parent returns it to a simple structural name that will not be written into metadata by Bridge.
    When I then imported my images into the new lightroom 1.1, this new parent child configuration was preserved (a configuration I never wanted).
    My question is: How can I get all the child keywords in Lightroom back into parent positions with no children present? They don't seem to drag and drop out of the parent spot and context menus don't seem to help.
    Can you give me some advice?? TIA

    Well thanks. I did figure out a way though it took a long time. I clicked on the unwanted child keyword, did ctrl-A to pick all, did ctrl-N for new collection, named it the new keyword, scrolled back to the old unwanted child keyword, right click delete all including the child keyword on the keyword list, added new non-child keyword in the new panel, hit enter. Can then delete the collection. Using keyboard shortcuts actually made this a pretty fast job per entry. I sure wish the Bridge 1 to 2 upgrade hadn't decided to make my system into an unwanted hierarchy!

  • How do you stop automatic import into iPhoto?

    I am a photoshop user, a pro, but new to the mac. iPhoto is installed and everytime I insert a compact flash card into the system, iPhoto starts up and attempts to import the photos.
    How do I stop this? I don't want iPhoto. I want Photoshop or nothing at all to happen? Thanks!
    -Glen

    Glen
    Image Capture, in your Applications Folder, controls this. Launch Image Capture and go
    Image Capture Menu -> Preferences
    There you can select your options for what happens when you connect your camera or card.

  • How do I rename pictures imported into iPhoto from PC?

    I have imported all my pictures from my PC hard drive to my (handed down) MAC. Then I did something wrong and had to 'rebuild' my photo library. That is fixed now and I have, folder by folder, imported the pictures from the MAC HD 'picture' folder into iphoto. In the iphoto 'library' there are duplicates, and even triplicates of files. I have gone through the iphoto library and 'moved to trash' (in iphoto, not the computer's trash) the copies I do not want. Will this mess up anything? I haven't 'emptied' the trash, just in case.
    Now I want to rename the files in each folder. For ex, all the files in the folder 'budapest' I want to name 'budapest'(as opposed to DS122345 for example). Is this possible? Will it change the file name in the library also? Or only in the specific folder?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
    You can add a title to the photos in iPhoto, but there is no way to rename a file in iPhoto. What you can do is export the file - (Share -> Export) and use the Title as filename. It's an option on the Export dialogue.
    Filenames mean nothing in iPhoto. They simply don't matter. The key to using the app is to remember that you do all your work in the iPhoto Window and don't access the files in the iPhoto Library Folder ever.
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    *For Users of 10.5 and later*
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    *For users of 10.4 and later* ...
    Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    *If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
    For users of 10.6 and later:
    You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and later:
    Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • How to display what is imported into GRC?

    Hi! Experts:
    We did many imports via configuration->utility->import at GRC 5.3.
    We want to review the history or logs for all imports done so far.
    Could you tell us how to do it?
    Thanks!

    I usually watch the RAR tables using the SQL debug tool.
    http://<server>:<port>/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/grc~ccappcomp/CCDebugger
    From there you can run a SQL command to watch which tables are being updated and if they have the correct information.
    A typical SQL statement might be:
    SELECT * FROM VIRSA_CC_SYSUSR
    You can only view VIRSA_CC_* tables using this tool however and not AE* or RE* etc.
    Hope that helps.
    Rgds,
    Babak

  • Captivate 3 is wrong size when importing into Flash CS3

    I've tried exporting, publishing etc. and no matter how I
    try, when I import into Flash CS3 the size of the Captivate content
    (background screens, in particular) are too small. For example, I
    captured a 423x424 area for my Captivate project. When I import
    into a Flash CS3 project with the same dimensions the Captivate
    content (screens) are more like 203x203.5 and the mouse path and
    slide context starting positions are upper left corner. I've tried
    adjusting some of the importing settings but can't get the screens
    the right size unless I resize each one manually - and I have
    around 100. Any help greatly appreciated!
    -Scott

    I am using captivate 3 and I get an error whenever I try to
    export to flash cs3. unknown error.
    why the hell doesnt Adobe say that flash is required to
    export to flash BEFORE I buy the software? I am using my pc for
    captivate, but am primarily mac based and was going to edit in
    flash on my mac. but captivate didnt allow for me to export to
    flash at all without any kind of flash installed. I installed a
    demo version of flash, but the export is coming up with an error.
    any ideas out there? adobe??? I'm currently using vista OS.
    thanks in advance. r

  • Entering Time into Calendar

    How can I input a time into Calendar on an iPad with a minutes value that does not end in 5 or zero?

    Perhaps users in the iCal forum know of a solution?

  • How do I publish calendars imported into iCal from a .ics file to iCloud rather than MobileMe?

    Having upgraded my iPhone4 & iPad to iOS5 and my iMac to OSX 10.7.2, I have been having trouble with duplicate calendar entries. Unfortunately, having deleted all but one calendar from the iCloud web interface, I heeded the mistaken advice to disable Calendars in the iCloud preference pane on the iMac and it deleted the calendars that had been removed from iCould from the iMac as well.
    A few false starts later, I was able, after disconnecting all my devices from the net, to restore my iCal calendars with TimeMachine from before the chaos started then exported them as .ics files. After rebooting and re-enabling the network to the iMac, iCloud sync purged the restored calendars from iCal again, so I imported the .ics files into iCal and published them again, but the publish options only include MobileMe or a private server, so I chose MobileMe. iCal now happily shows all my calendars on the iMac again, but the iCloud web Calendar app can't see them.
    How can I get iCloud to see the published iCal calendars again?

    Solved, I think! What you need to do is log on to your icloud account at www.icloud.com, go to the calendar screen, click the gearwheel and choose New Calendar. Create a calendar here (ie up on the iCloud) with the name you want for your imported calendar data. Then switch to iCal - you may have to quit and relaunch for the new iCloud calendar to appear (or it will probably do so automatically if you wait long enough) then import the data using File->Import->Import... When you get to the step where it asks which calendar you want to import the data into, choose the new iCloud calendar you've just created. Job done!
    To be complete in my answer, I don't think you can exactly do what you want to do, at least not at present. There doesn't seem to be any way to publish a calendar to iCloud after the first time you set up iCloud on your Mac when it exports any calendar data that is on the Mac at that time. I suppose that Apple feel that the way I have described works by exporting from one calendar and importing into another, so no need to provide a way of doing it directly.

  • How do i automatically import ics calendar invitations from email into apple calendar?

    how do i automatically import ics calendar invitations (sent from Windows computer - Outlook) from email into apple calendar?

    From Calendar Help. The only two ways listed are using the Import command or a drag and drop.
    Import events into a calendar
    If you want, create a new calendar for the events.Add or delete a calendar
    Choose File > Import > Import.
    Locate and select the calendar file that contains the events, and then click Import.
    Choose the calendar you created or another calendar to add the events to.
    You can also drag a .ics file to Calendar. The events in the file are added to the calendar that’s highlighted in the Calendar list.
    You might be able to set up and Automator action to do it for you.

    Hi Stan,
    Sometimes people sign up for a Revel account either through viewing a friend's account, or through Photoshop Elements, etc, not fully understanding what is occurring. We can delete your account from Revel if you so desire. That would stop the update messages. If you didn't really want a Revel account this would be a good solution.
