How do I set AUTOMATOR to go to a folder, get a picture, attach it to an email, send it, move on to the next picture, send it and repeat it till no more pictures are available?

I have about 5000 (yes, five thousand!) JPG files I need to post to a blog via email.
So, how would I go about setting AUTOMATOR to create an email, attach only one of the JPG files to this email, send it off and move on to the next; repeating this till all pictures have been emailed off?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
MP

Here's a barebones workflow, tested under Snow Leopard.
You'll need to get red menace's Dispense Items Incrementally action: http://automator.us/leopard/downloads/. (I hope it still works under Yosemite!)

Only overview & pictures are available

After blue screen on my notebook the Apple TV doesn't work correct with iTunes. The tabs movies etc are all missing. Only overview & pictures are available.
How can I activate the tabs movies etc in my iTunes?

otherwise i would prob try to do a clean install of itunes
or maybe if your itunes lost it's relation with itunestore you dont get the rented movies tab but you should still get the fold out menu for the atv under devices

When using Exprt PDF, the choice of language for the document to be exported is sometimes very restricted, while sometimes many more languages are available. What's the matter?

Dear Mrs.,
I now add 2 print screens which show what I get when I try to export a PDF from Adobe Reader and which languages are available.
The same problem does not exist when I use the website.
I hope this gives you a clue.
Many thanks,

How can I make the playback buttons of YouTube and other plug-ins bigger since they are so tiny?

How can I make the playback buttons of YouTube and other plug-ins bigger since they are so tiny in Firefox? I tried some suggestions that dealt with entering "about:config" in a fresh browser, but to no avail. I also downloaded an add-on called "Theme Font & Size Changer", but that didn't work either. So, I am reaching out here as that was a suggestion that another user here offered.

Ah, yes- that is an ultra high DPI (dots per inch) display. This is a known issue in Flash Player, which Adobe is working on fixing.
In the mean time, you can get some videos to have normal-sized controls by switching Youtube to the HTML5 video player:
In Firefox, go to https://www.youtube.com/html5 and click the "Request the HTML5 player" button.

How do i set a song in my Music folder on my iPhone 5s as a ringtone

how do i set a song in my Music folder on my iPhone 5s as a ring tone?

You need to create a ringtone from your song using itunes (see Create free ringtones with iTunes 10), then select it on the Tones tab of your iTunes sync settings and sync it to your phone. Once synced to your phone you will find it in Settings>Sounds>Ringtone at the top of the list. (If you're using iTunes 11 you may need to go to View>Show Sidebar to follow the process shown in the linked video.)

Hi Timo,
Thanks for response!
But as i read from the following url: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E15051_01/apirefs.1111/e10653/oracle/jbo/ViewObject.html, the setQueryTimeOut(int timeOutMills), the timeOut is mentioned in milliseconds. Please correct me if I am wrong.
and i have overriden the executeQuery() method in the View Object Impl class as shown below:
public void executeQuery() {
Map sessionScope = ADFContext.getCurrent().getSessionScope();
sessionScope.put("MyQuery", this);
try {
super.executeQuery();
} finally {
sessionScope.remove("MyQuery");
throw new JboException("Query Taking too long to respond");
and in the JAVA class i am calling the above method like this:
monitor.setQueryTimeOut(6);
monitor.executeQuery();
But the issue is:
1. The above exception message is getting carried forward to other pages as well. I mean somewhere in the session/ADFContext this message is being saved and error comes up/pops up when i click on other tabs of the page. How do i clear this?
2. The above exception message is coming for the first time but when i click the 'Submit' button second time, i am getting the results and also the message that 'Query is taking too long to respond'. This should not be the case, everytime it should show the same message as the timeout limit is less and the query should end without fetching the results.
Kindly let me know how to resolve the above issues, any pointers will be helpful.
Thanks in advance.

I am trying to sync my itunes with my ipod, but when I get to step 3 of syncing, it stops. Also, I deleted all the songs on my ipod, and when I go to my music in my ipod the songs are all still there and in a grey color and I'm not able to select them.

I am trying to sync my itunes with my ipod, but when I get to step 3 of syncing, it stops. Also, I deleted all the songs on my ipod, and when I go to my music in my ipod the songs are all still there and in a grey color and I'm not able to select them. How do I completely clear my ipod music, and how can I solve the syncing problem?

Sync works the same way it always has, connect the device, select the content desired to sync and sync.
All the media should be in iTunes already, iDevices are not and have never been backup devices.
If this is a new computer, move the content from the old computer to the new computer.

How to move floats to the next page?

Hi All,
Can anyone help me on this?
How to move floats to the next page the same position?
Thanks in advance

@Learner – you can duplicate the object to the next page and remove the original.
If the original one is anchored you also have to account for its position, because duplicating an anchored object will move it.
Here an example for duplicating a selected object to the same page.
//DuplicateAnchoredObject_SELECTION_SNIPPET.jsx
//Uwe Laubender
* @@@BUILDINFO@@@ DuplicateAnchoredObject_SELECTION_SNIPPET.jsx !Version! Fri Apr 12 2013 07:53:31 GMT+0200
var sel = app.selection[0];
var x = sel.geometricBounds[1];
var y = sel.geometricBounds[0];
//The duplicate() method without an optional argument:
var dup = sel.duplicate();
//NOW: the duplicated objects is at the inner border of the page
//To move it to its original position we need the following:
var xd = dup.geometricBounds[1];
var yd = dup.geometricBounds[0];
dup.move(undefined,[x-xd,y-yd]);
That snippet can be enhanced for duplicating to a certain page, because the duplicate() methods can take arguments like "Page", "Layer", "Spread" etc. For details see the DOM documentation at:
http://www.jongware.com/idjshelp.html
One caution here: to make that work the way you want with facing pages, you have to take into account, that your coordinate system must be changed to "per page" by the property "RulerOrigin" of the ViewPreferences.
This said, here is a working example for duplicating a selected object to page 3 of the current document:
//DuplicateAnchoredObject_TO-DIFFERENT-PAGE_SELECTION_SNIPPET.jsx
//Uwe Laubender
* @@@BUILDINFO@@@ DuplicateAnchoredObject_TO-DIFFERENT-PAGE_SELECTION_SNIPPET.jsx !Version! Tue May 14 2013 10:11:29 GMT+0200
var d=app.documents[0];
var oldRulerOrigin = d.viewPreferences.rulerOrigin;
var sel = app.selection[0];
var x = sel.geometricBounds[1];
var y = sel.geometricBounds[0];
//In case of facing pages we change the ruler origin:
d.viewPreferences.rulerOrigin = RulerOrigin.PAGE_ORIGIN;
//Duplication of selected object:
var dup = sel.duplicate(d.pages[2]);
//NOW: the duplicated objects is at the inner border of the page
//To move it to its original position we need the following:
var xd = dup.geometricBounds[1];
var yd = dup.geometricBounds[0];
dup.move(undefined,[x-xd,y-yd]);
//Restore the original ruler origin:
d.viewPreferences.rulerOrigin = oldRulerOrigin;
Of course, thiese snippets are working also with not anchored objects…

I was sent an email which I thought was legit . I opened an attachment (zip file) but nothing in it. I phoned the bank to double check, and of course the email was bogus. How can I tell whether my macbook air version X.9.4 has a virus or not.

No Mac viruses are propagated through email.
Be vigilant for suspicious activity as you normally should be, but do not download or install some "anti-virus" utility in an effort to fix a problem that does not exist. That's a well-worn path to certain misery.

Read another post in the forum about this and it appears this app also installs a profile with a proxy service that you will have to try and delete as well. Check that out.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Just drag them to your open iTunes window.

I need to send an attachment. When I attach it to my email it shows up "open" in the recipients email instead of being an icon type attachment. How do I fix this?

once you finalize the addressing the list disappears, so how can is affect the subject . For that matter is disappears when it looses focus.
I have heard of a bug that selects the name that is highlighted when the mouse leaves the selection box if no address is selected. Perhaps that is your issue. Until the issue is fixed I suggest you use tab to leave the address box

HT1338 My mac book pro has three updates ready to install. When I select all three of them and click install it shows them downloading, the computer restarts, and when the computer turns back on and I go to updates again they are still there to install.

Best to install them one at a time, re-booting between each one.
