How do I get it to stop importing duplicates even after I checkbox tell it not to.
That checkmark will only prevent iPhoto from importing exact duplicates - the exact filename, image format, exactly the same size,
What kind of duplicates are you asking about? Have the files been renamed or converted in any way?

How can I get Photoshop Elements to import photos that it wrongly indicates are wrong or in catalog?

Had 17,000 photos on harddrive before installing Photoshop Elements 11 today. Had them well organized in a number of folders under My Pictures. PS found and imported only 467 photos. I tried Search, Browse, and import Files; was able to highlight folders and individual photo files. When I clicked Get Media, it processed for 20 seconds and came back with message that "Files are not in correct format or are already in the catalog." In fact, they are in the correct format (jpg - able to easily view with other programs) and they are NOT visible in the catalog. I went into Control Panel and enabled the Watch service, listed all of the files that PS had not imported from, and still cannot show more than 467 of my photos. Very frustrating, any suggestions? Running Win 7 on 6-months old Sony that plays Blue-Ray, with 8 GB RAM and quad core Intel processors.

This forum is amazing - thanks to all who responded over the weekend. For future users, some replies I found helpful: 1. allow a lot of time for the cataloging process. I had not realized it would be such a slow and incremental process but a day later it is continuing to add to the catalog - am now up to a couple thousand in the catalog, 2. turning off Organize and Stack visually-similar, and the corrective functions during the initial process speeds things up, 3. go into Control Panel, Administrative, Services and activate the Photoshop Elements watch function as soon as you install Elements, 4. it was helpful to repair/optimize, and 5. if you realize it is really messed up, uninstalling Elements and re-installing may work better than lots of little tweaks and fixes. Now if I can just figure out how to get photos ordered by actual date taken rather than random future dates that my camera or previous version of Elements 8 apparently assigned....

Items purchased in an account a permanently associated with that account. You cannot split accounts nor merge them. You can log in with your family account and download items that way. In the long run though, especially if you are using other Apple devices, you may encounter problems with authorization. You should look into making new purchases with your own ID.

Aifc or aiff? how do I get aifc to stop more helo needed

hey there, when i bounce my file types save as aifc? HOW DO I GET THIS TO STOP?
I was told that this is because if might be compressed, but it dosnt actually mean that they are

When you bounce out of Logic, you mean? In that case, don't worry about it. The file is not compressed if saved as Wav SD2 or aif - aifc may not be comped as you mentioned.
I usually record at 96, but I think more people than not record below 50. If you are recording for cd (44100) and stuck between 44.1 and 48 - I'd just 44 it.

Glad you brought this subject up Scott. Logic's not saving my files as AIFC, though, always AIFF. But files I import from one of my collaborator's system saves as AIFC, and I've been wondering about this.
I record at 44 or 48, as needed, and the highest sampling rate I've ever been asked for by a client (including some 'name' animation studios) is 48K. While it's fun to hear sound at higher sampling rates, I'd rather be disappointed sooner than later.

Nah, dealt with him before. He is only prepared to help if it will make him an overnight profit of millions, otherwise he couldn't care less. I'll just speak to a solicitor about whether I have a legal case against them or not, and if I do, I'll take Ian Livingston personally to court, after all, he is the boss and therefore responsible for actions of employees acting on behalf of the company.

Anyone know how I can get an audio file imported into my iTunes' podcast directory, rather than the music directory?

Anyone know how I can get an audio file imported into my iTunes' podcast directory, rather than the music directory?
I downloaded a series of podcasts recently. They were imported into my "music" directory instead, making it more difficult for me to recall where I left off with the last podcast I listened to before having to stop it for whatever reason. Thanks in advance for any help.

You can do it, though the result isn't ideal. Import your episode, then select it in the Music list and hit command-i to bring up the info panel:
However each episode you do this with will turn up as a 'podcast' with no name - and it doesn't seem possible to give it one - containing the one episode:

When I click the home button, it takes me to my home page AND opens a blank tab. How can I get it to stop opening the new tab!

I have igoogle as my hompage. When I click the home button, it will open my igoogle page but also open up a blank tab as well. Firefox didn't always do this, it just started. Maybe when I upgraded to the 5.0. I've tried looking in the options and I can't find something there and there doesn't seem to be a solution on the web. How do I get it to stop doing that?

I have a new Macbook pro, about 2 months old, and at times running video, the fans starts and does not stop. how do you get it to stop.

I have a new Macbookbook, about 2 months old, and at times running video, the fans starts and does not stop. how do you get it to stop. Also i am thinking once the video is done the fan should be slowing down and getting quiet on its own.

Your fan(s) will run at high speed (i.e., loudly) while video is playing, and you can't get around that.
If your fans are not slowing down within 2-4 minutes after CPU- and/or GPU-intensive usage ends, and the application that was showing the video is still running, Quit that application. (In fact, if you're accustomed to Windows, you may not realize that simply closing a Mac application's window does not quit the application. You still need to use the Quit command in the application-name menu. There will always be a bright dot beside or below the application icon in your Dock for each application that is open.) Quit the ones you aren't using, and see whether that allows the fans to slow down without restarting the machine. If that doesn't do the trick, reset the SMC:

Or better yet, create and use new Apple IDs for others in your household. You could always use different Apple IDs for iCloud services (like iMessage and FaceTime) and iTunes and App Store., but it's even easier to share purchased content now with Family Sharing.
