How do I find the aperture image files so that I can attach them to an email

How do I find the aperture image files? I know that you can email images from aperture. But how would I attach an image using Mail?

if you mean to go into the Aperture library in order to get image files to print with Canon's software it's not really possible. The best you would be able to do would be to get the master image and if you're shooting RAW that will be the RAW file. In any case no adjustments you made to the image in Aperture would be available, versions don't exist as files until you export them.
If you want to print with the Canon software you would export the image from Aperture and then print that image file.

Hi Michael,
I think you are referring to the changes switching from regular FTP to SSH connection which is now required.
Please review the article below covering this recent update and the changes needed to establish your connection via (DW or FTP client).

How do I find the 'invisible' pdf file of the iphoto book?

Hi!
Under Panther, there was a technique for finding the pdf file that iPhoto created of the book that was sent to be printed. Since I last tried this technique, I upgraded both machine and system. Now the technique doesn't work. At least I can't find the right pdf file, anywhere.
Has Apple changed how it creates the iphoto books? Is there a new way of naming the resulting pdf files? I'd like to check the file before ordering the book.
Thanks!

Try this way:
How to Find the iPhoto Generated PDF File:
1 - Start the ordering process and stop after the book has been assembled.
2 - Since Spotlight cannot find and display invisible files it is difficult to locate the iPhoto generated pdf file. I use the application Kilometre, which does show invisible files, to locate and copy the PDF file to the desktop. You can also use a 3rd party application like Cocktail or TinkerTool to make all invisible file visible for this purpose but don't forget to make them invisible again after you're done.
3 - The file will be located in your HD/private/var/tmp/folders.501/TemporaryItems/iPhoto folder. You can then Option-drag it to the desktop to get a copy of it.
4 - Preview the PDF file and then, if satisfactory, you can continue with the ordering process.
Hope this has been of some help. Good luck.
O.T.

How do I find the start day of each month

Hi all,
Hope someone can give a a hand here I've to do a calender project for college and I'm not allowed to use any built in Java classes so fun all the way so far :-)
I've got one question that is bugging me at the moment. and that is how to find the start day for each month in a year and store them in an array.
I'm starting my week at Monday (0) and stopping at Sunday (6) and I do have a formula for discovering the first day in Jan of the given year its
((y-1900)*365 + (y-1901)/4)%7
I was just wondering how I could amend this to find the first day in Feb, March etc.
Any suggestions greatly accepted.
Thanks in advance.

I have each day of the week starting at 0 for Monday up to 6 for Sunday I want to map what the start day of a month as a number between 0 and 6.
The formula I have discovering the first day of Jan of a given year will give you 1 i.e. Tuesday
what I need to do is find out what number between 0 and 6 the start day of each other month of a given year is.
For example the 1st of Feb is a Friday which is 4 on the weekday map.
Your suggestion of 31%7 won't work for this, sorry more than likely my fault for not being clearer in what my requirements were.
Cheers for the help so far and yep your right not being able to use the built in classes is a pain :-)
Edited by: Irish-Student on 03-Mar-2008 20:01This doesn't really change much of my first suggestion. If you can already calculate the first day of the month of January for any given year, then there's no problem figuring out the other months. Say I want to know the first day April 1, 1978. You already know how to find January 1, 1978. So find that. Then find the number of days between January 1 and April 1 (remember to account for leap years). Once you have the number of days, you can figure out how many weeks and days that is, and thus what day of the week it is.

HT1426 How do I find the iTunes64.msi file for my iTunes on Windows 7?

iTunes64.msi is missing and I can't update or uninstall my iTunes without that file. Is there any way to either download it or find it? This is the message that pops up when I try looking for it.

Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

How do I find the unused iMovie files so I can delete them?

I'm using a MacBook, late 2008, running Lion & iMovie '11. 164 GB hard drive, 4 GB RAM.
I imported a long movie (well, an hour & a half) into iMovie - at least, I TRIED to. It quit about 3/4 of the way through the import. I tried importing again, the last of the 2 tapes. Still quit at the same point. I started getting a "Startup Disk is almost full" message so I tried deleting every possible file I could delete (iTunes TV shows, pictures, etc.) Freeing up that much memory allowed me to import the last 1/4 of the 2nd tape once more.
I got the movie finished with transitions, titles, etc. & tried to send it to iDVD. It quit after a couple of hours & said there was an error (no number given) and could not finish. I once again started getting that "Startup Disk is Almost Full" message. That's all I can get now. I lost the import of the last 1/4 of the tape, too.
I tried moving the movie file (both the movie file & the iMovie Project folder) to an iMac, 2010, running Lion & iMovie '11 with a 1 TB hard drive & 8 GB RAM. However, the entire movie will not move. It once again leaves out that last 1/4. I cannot import directly from the camera because I just discovered the iMac uses Firewire 800 & I only have a 400 cable!
I just want to find the hidden iMovie trash files from the MacBook, delete them, and re-export the video to iDVD. Where the heck are they?

How do I find the voice memo file stored in the backup on my computer?

I am trying to find the file on my computer for the voice memos. I tried to save the voice memo and it was deleted from my iphone 5. I am trying to retrieve it from a previous backup on my computer.

They are in the backup created by iTunes of your iPhone.
You will need a 3rd party application top get them out.
Google view iOS backup to see a bunch of apps.

In the command line how do I find the etc/host file? is there one?

I am trying to work remotely and use our lotus notes system (which is from a windows based server) but I have to connect to the mail server and our IT person wants to find the equivalent of the Windows host file or host table . is there such a file? we went here
http://linux.die.net/man/5/hosts
hosts(5) - Linux man page
Name
hosts - The static table lookup for host names
Synopsis
/etc/hosts
thanks

Since you're using a Macintosh, quit reviewing linux stuff. These, when entered in the Terminal app (inside /Applications/Utilities/) should point you in the right direction:
*cat /etc/hosts*
details in:
*man hosts*
FWIW, you should search the Unix forum (or post your query there) under OS X Technologies.

How can I find the iphone backup files

I recently moved my iTunes files to an external hard drive and wiped my PC. In the meantime I had to replace my iPhone. Now I don't know how to restore all the apps, pics, etc to my new iPhone! Help!

The location of the backup file is :
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
So it isn't in the iTunes directory, so you may not have copied it - if you did then copy it back to the same location on your computer.
If you copied the iTunes directory then you should have copies of your apps (though not their content) in a folder called Mobile Applications, if not then you can re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

How do I change the pre-filled file location when I choose Save As?

16 September 2013
Using Windows 7 Home Edition and Firefox 24.0
I always want Firefox to offer a location when I download stuff. At the moment it fills the Save As file location with a location I never use and it is the same one every time, and I don't know how to stop this from happening. How can I teach Firefox to fill the Save As location with another file location, for example Desktop?
NB This is absolutely not about setting the default under
Tools/Options/General/Downloads/Save Files To...
although everyone automatically assumes it is.
Background: After using Firefox for a few months on my Windows 7 machine, I then imported old Firefox settings from a VISTA machine.

You may want to reset the prefs file, it should show the last place you saved a page from.

How can i find the gain/amplification factor used when acquiring a voltage signal using PCI 6036E

in short, i am interested in find the sensor gain for used in feedback loop simulation

Greetings!
The gain setting defaults to unity gain, but it is selectable to x10 or x100, also. (This is your pre-digitizing gain, of course...after it's in digital form, you can tweak the gain to anything you want in your VI.
Hope this helps.

How do I find the number of file descriptors in use by the system?

Hey folks,
I am trying to figure out how many file descriptors my Leopard system has in use. On FreeBSD, this is exposed via sysctl at the OID kern.open_files (or something close to that, can't recall exactly what the name is). I do see that OS X has kern.maxfiles, which gives the maximum number of file descriptors the system can have open, but I don't see a sysctl that tells me how many of the 12288 descriptors the kernel thinks are in use.
There's lsof, but is that really the only way? And, I'm not even sure if I can just equate the number of lines from lsof to the number of in use descriptors. I don't think it's that easy (perhaps it is and I'm just over complicating things).
So, anyone know where this information is?
Thanks for your time.

Can't think of anything other than lsof right now. However:
Only root can list all open files, all other users see only their own
There is significant duplication, and
All types of file descriptor are listed, which you may not want, so you need to consider filtering.
As an example, the following will count all regular files opened by all users:
sudo lsof | awk '/REG/ { print $NF }' | sort -u | wc -lIf you run it without the sudo, you get just your own open files.
