How does one import just 1 picture from one's digital camera?

I have 700 pictures on my digital camera and I only want to import one picture. Is this possible? How do I do it?
Thank you.

If your camera mounts on the desktop as an external device, then it's as simple as choosing File > Import to Library, then navigating to the camera and selecting the photo you want.
If not, use Image Capture, found in the Applications folder, to import. Save it to the desktop, then open iPhoto and import it. You can delete the first location once the file is imported into iPhoto.
A third way is to use a card reader. It will mount on the desktop, even if your camera does not. With a card reader, you can always preview the files before you import, and select only the ones you want. IMO, it's the best way to import.
Here's one more trick, copied from MacOSXHints.com: "In iPhoto 6.0.4, when you attach a digital camera and see the import screen, press the Return key on your keyboard twice in succession. iPhoto will switch to editing mode, showing all pictures that reside on the digital camera. You cannot make changes to the pictures, nor can you drag the pictures individually to your iPhoto library, but you can see everything on the camera." Old Toad says you can use this trick to drag one photo into the library, but that it only works with one at a time and is very slow. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4079344&#4079344

How can I Import 2 channel audio from a Sony PMW300 camera?

How can I Import 2 channel audio from a Sony PMW300 camera?

Terry Woolf
Thanks for the reply.
The link to your prior thread is
Audio
I suspect that the issue of no audio for your .mp4 file goes to your conversion method MXF to .mp4.
Please excuse if I am saying what you already know. When you import your video into Premiere Elements (in your case 12 Mac), a project
preset is established, either by you manually or the project automatically. That project preset contains a description of the project settings
for audio as well as video. Unless you select one of the project presets which are described for use with 5.1 channel, your audio in video audio
imports into a stereo project. It is in the export area that you will find your opportunity to customize (if necessary) the settings for audio.
In the project, if applicable to your situation, you can duplicate an audio channel (See Fill Left or Fill Right under fx Effects/Audio Effects).
Please let me ask this to make sure of the details.
If you import your .mp4 with 2 channel audio (derived from your .mxf convert and dragged to Video Track 1/Audio Track 1) and cannot hear the sound....
a. do you see any evidence for an audio file in the Timeline Audio track 1?
b. if you do, how many wave forms do you see, one or two?
c. if you have the audio meters opened while you are playing back the Timeline content in Edit area, do you see 1 or 2 channels and is
there activity in both.
d. when you import the file into Project Assets, do you observe any conforming activity going on in progress bar in the lower right cover of the workspace...if
so, do you wait for it to go to completion before continuing on?
We could also try deleting the conformed audio in the Media Cache Files Folder to force the program to re-conform the audio. See Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Disks should show you the location of the Media Cache Files Folder whose contents you will be deleting.
Please review and consider, and then let me know if I targeted your question. If not, please do not hesitate to let me know, and I will rethink my reply based
on your response.
Thank you.

Cannot load pictures from Fuji F10 digital camera onto OSX 10.5.2

I cannot load pictures from my fuji F10 digital camera. The Fuji support site does not appear to have any firmware that would allow compatibility between the two but was wondering if anyone has any ideas. I can't even bring them over using a zip drive because I get an error stating that the files are corrupt. any help is appreciated.
Thanks,

What brand of camera do you have? Perhaps you might take it up with the manufacturer, after all, they are the ones who decide whether to support mounting on the OS X Desktop.
Given the amount of pictures I take, constantly taking my card in and out of the camera puts wear and tear on it,
Using a USB Card Reader is a much better and safer way to transfer your photos:
1. Less risk of your images being lost if your camera shuts down during transfer.
2. It saves the battery on your camera
3. It saves wear and tear on your camera ports - and replacing a worn USB port on a camera is somewhat more expensive than replacing a camera card - and what "wear and tear" is there on a card?
4. It’s almost always faster.

Downloading pictures from a Nikon digital camera to an iPad

How does one read Digital Certificate attributes/values?

The plan:
Distribute a document secured by "Certificate Security". For those who have been granted the rights to print the document, need to be able to print the "User's Name" on the document - for traceability reasons.
In before Acrobat XI (using Pro version), I was able do this with in a javascript assigning "identity.name" and "identity.loginName" to arbitrary variable; then use addwatermarkfromtext function to display this data on each page.
However with Acrobat XI, I see that identity.name and identity.loginName are Privileged and cannot be called from a page or document level script. Furthermore addwatermarkfromtext is not supported in Reader (which the recipients are using). So my old tricks no longer work.
I've over come the addwatermarkfromtext restriction inelegantly by using textboxes.
The self-signed certificate I'm using allows for signing and execution of script; but not been successful in using the identity attributes - even with trying "app.trustedfunction... app.beginPriv() etc...
In checking the API reference, see a possible work-around using the certificate properties - specially: certificate.subjectCN. The API reference shows this as a read-only, non-Privileged value! Am at a loss on how to call/retrieve. What I am hoping to do is: as the document is secured by Certificate, I want to read the Certificate's "common name" value of the person who opened the document and use this as my traceability token on printed documents.
Would appreciate examples of JavaScript code to retrieve and use the Certificate.subjectCN of the user who has the document open.
(or if I'm still barking up the wrong tree - direction to the right path).
Many Thanks !

If you just want to read the current state of the lines when one changes, you could configure non-buffered change detection (call DAQmxCfgInputBuffer with 0 samples per channel after you configure change detection timing but before you start your task).
Use the change detection event and read just a single sample per callback.
If the software can't keep up though, you wouldn't have a buffer of all of the previous transitions. If this is something you need, you'll need to keep using the buffered change detection. Either event could work, but not without caveats:
1. The Every N Samples event is generated when the requested number of samples are transferred off of the device to the host PC buffer. It is difficult to control exactly when this transfer happens (though there are channel properties you can try setting--I can't experiment since I don't have the same hardware handy). You're not getting the events currently because it is likely that the data is sitting in the device FIFO until the transfer is initiated.
2. The change detection event is generated from the hardware signal. You have to read the data to get the data transfer to happen though, but until you read the data you don't know how many samples there will be (if the line is changing rapidly you might get several samples per event for example).
For the record I find the buffering pretty awkward on USB devices when dealing with callbacks (e.g. if you are using EveryNSamples callback shouldn't the data transfer be initiated every time N samples are acquired?). I haven't played with it in a while and it's possible the Data Transfer and Memory Channel Properties can be used to deal with the buffering issues.

Why does my computer freeze when trying to download pictures from my pentax digital camera?

My computer works fine until I insert my camera download cord into the USB port. Then it freezes. This is a recent problem. Last download of pictures was done successfully over the Xmas holidays.

Another ooption is to use a neat little gadget called an i-Flashdrive.

On ipad 2 ps touch just keeps crashing it appears from reviews this is a common problem, how does one access a refund

As stated, completely exit pst (don't just leave the app) and then activate airplane mode. Then open PST and change your cloud sync option to "off". Once you deactivate airplane mode, you should be able to open PST again without the crash. Iirc, I had to work at opening PST and accessing my settings very quickly or it would still crash before opening the settings page. Unfortunately, we have to completely forget about cloud sync until the bug is fixed. Save any image files back to the ios camera roll to share with other apps or upload elsewhere.

Only iTunes purchases may copy over via File > Transfer Purchases - otherwise syncing is one way, from the computer to the device. To get the rest of your music/films etc onto the new computer you can copy the backup from your old computer onto the new one and then load them into iTunes

Latest version of Lightroom will not download RAW files from my D750. How does one get around this? Bought Lightroom for it's ability to manage RAW files and now very disappointed.

Here is the contents of a batch file which will convert whatever raws you drop on it:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe DNG Converter" -cr7.1 -dng1.4 -p0 %*
Once you download the latest converter (release candidate from adobe labs, if necessary), and save the appropriate contents of the batch file (change path to match your system, and parameters to match your druthers, if applicable), the procedure is:
1. Drop raw files on bat file.
2. Import as usual (the DNGs).
Not too bad once you're set up (if DNG converter supports your raws).
Documentation:
http://wwwimages.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/products/photoshop/pdfs/dng_commandline.pd f
Note: on Mac, you may need to use "$@" (with the double-quotes) instead of %* (which is dos batch syntax), and you will need to use the full path to the converter executable file, e.g.
“/Applications/Adobe DNG Converter.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe DNG Converter”
If too much, just use the GUI instead of the bat file.

Thanks but the problem was there was no trash icon. Shut phone down and rebooted and the trash icon came back. Don't know how long it will stay.
Probably for a long time. Occasionally, there will be a hiccup or a glitch, and closing then reopening the app usually fixes it. If not, then a restart or a reset might. After that, you may need to reset settings or try further troubleshooting. In the worst case scenario, you can always make a backup then restore the backup, since the restore process acts as a 'filter', or even restore as new and test your issue.
Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
- Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear. (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
- Relaunch the App and try again.
- Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
- Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
- Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
- Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
- Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
- Test the issue after each step. If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

New to using Firefox with MAC: How does one save a single jpeg from the internet, similar to using the right mouse click on a pc?

If your question comes about because you have a single button mouse, it's time to visit your local computer store and get a ''real'' mouse for that MAC. I don't "get" Apple, they sell their hardware for almost twice what a comparable PC would sell for - and then they leave out what is probably the most important time saving control, the right-button.
