How to create a new iMovie library from existing events?

I have had the misfortune of loosing my Mac with all of the data on it BUT fortunately I have kept a copy of all my iMovie events backed up so I've managed to save them.
Now I have a new iMac and 500Gb+ in the "iMovie Events" folder. I've copied this folder into my Movies folder (in "home" dir) BUT since I didn't also back up the .imovielibrary file I need to create a new library for all these events. The problem I'm facing at the moment is that I'm not sure how to "import" these events in a way that will maintain all/most of the information. I've tried doing the File > Import Media and pointing it to the Movies folder BUT it looked like it was going to import all the files into a single Event, so I chickened out.
Any suggestions/recommendations? Am I doomed to importing the events one at a time?
Thanks!

Looks like I may have found a solution.
As mentioned above I've copied the "iMovie Events" folder to the place iMovie expects it to be at. And now I've selected: File > Update Projects and Events
It has recognized that there were a bunch of events that it needed to "process" and has started reading them all.
It looks like all the events are back, I've not done extensive checking yet, but so far it looks very promising.

How do I create a new Aperture library from pictures I moved from IMAC?

I moved my Photos to External Hard drive from MAC . Can I create new aperture library in EHD?

As I wrote as long as both programs are latest versions they share the same library structure and can open each others libraries.
Open Aperture and then select File->Switch to Library. If the iPhoto library shows up in the list select it. If it does not select Other/New… If the iphoto library shows up in this list select it if not select Other Library and find, select and open the iPhoto library.
At this point there are a few things you can do depending on your situation. You can just leave the library as is if you do most of your work in iPhoto. Or you can turn the this library into an Aperture library.
To make it an Aperture library open Aperture and create a new empty library as you did before. Now go to File->Import->Library and select the iPhoto library. The iPhoto library will be imported and converted to an Aperture library.
While all of thsi is safe you the iPhoto library it is alwasy a good idea to have a bakup of the library before starting just in case.

How to create a new tab inside a existing subtab on a page.

Hi,
How can I create a new tab inside a existing subtab on a page?
If I change directly on the page.xml it will not maintain compatibility with upgrades. Am I right?
Thanks,
Marcelo

Marcelo,
Well basically you are adding a stackLayout bean and using that adding your region. Are you able to see the changes and run the page without any error?
As you are manipulating the file manually, you can never be sure of whether its going to cause issues later on or not. And as mentioned earlier if OAF doesn't support creating the subtab using personalization, there are bound to be some limitations from the framework side. Also what personalization allows is to create items and not regions. So better stick to a rigorous testing to catch any issues early on.

Hard Drive crash, creating a new iTunes Library from my iPhone

Hi,
My hard drive crashed with my iPhone back up and all my pictures, music etc. I have no back up.
I need now to make sure my iPhone is backed up and get my photo's off the phone. So I have created a new iTunes and iPhoto file and copied the pictures across. But when going through the options for my iPhone in iTunes, I am fearful of wiping the information on my phone. It does not appear I can pull the information from my iPhone to my iTunes account, instead my phone will be wiped and the non existant music on my iTunes account wil replace my collection...
I understand the need to protect against priracy, but come on, the phone has the same serial number!!
How to I get around this and create a back up without deleting stuff?
Thanks

Hi,
I am about to do this (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2584477?start=15&tstart=0), but having lost all my photo's on my old hard drive, I am afraid I will lose them on my iPhone!
Can someone tell me if the 'Library' photo's where kept as well as the 'Camera Roll' photo's?
I cannot figure out if the photo's from the 'Library' (on the phone) have been included in the back-up.
Thanks

How to create a new full backup alongside existing one?

I have recently reinstalled my MBP from scratch and installed some apps from scratch as well. I still have my old TM backup in a sparsebundle on my NAS (a ReadyNAS NV+).
I now would like to create a complete new full backup alongside my existing one. Or put differently, a new folder/backup inside the Backups.backupdb inside the mounted sparsebundle. Currently I see a folder called "XYZs MacBook Pro". I'd like that to be renamed to something like "XYZs Old MacBook Pro" and create a new full backup under "XYZs MacBook Pro".
I understand you end up having multiple folders inside Backups.backupdb if you have many Macs (with different MAC addresses). I only have one Mac, but want TM to treat my old previous backup (of the same MPB, hence with the same MAC address) as if it was from another Mac (with a different name).
With such a setup, I can still access backups from my previous installation of the same hardware by selecting another volume from TM (by holding Alt when clikcing at the TM icon) or with tools such as Back-In-Time.
Is there any way to achieve this? My sparsebundle is large enough to hold another full backup alongside the old one.
Thanks

But wait, you said if I erased the disk I get a new UUID. I did not erase it but I moved all files into a /Previous folder (after booting from the install DVD), then installed the system new, and then moved user data (and some Library and some application stuff) back from /Previous. So, I guess, I have no new UUID for my internal disk.
Ah, yes, that is different ("reinstalled from scratch" usually means erased). If the disk was never erased, it will still have the same UUID. But since you've moved or replaced virtually everything, it will all get backed up anyway.
I'm not sure why you did all that; the old +Erase and Install+ and +Archive and Install+ options no longer exist for Snow Leopard: there's just Install, which replaces OSX without touching anything else.
I wanted to have a *really clean* install as my old systems seemed to be messed up with some bad settings.
So, back to my original question: how can I make the new "XYZs MacBook Pro" appear alongside the old "XYZs MacBook Pro" and switch volumes when I start TM using the Option key?
Why would you want to do that? You can view and restore from any backup.
I figured that way I can keep all old backups from the old installation and not have TM retire old stuff. And start a new one from scratch for the new installation where things will get retired. Basically keep the two backups apart from each other and not see any of the old stuff unless explicitly mounted using the option key.
If I follow your approach, what happens to old files of the old disk/UUID? Will they get retired eventually? Would my original idea work as envisioned or would it retire old things nevertheless? If the latter is the case, it is of no use and your suggested approach is the better one.
Is there maybe a ay to force TM to start a new full backup?
Back up to a different place: a different HD or partition, or erase the current one.
Guess that's my only option then. I created a full bootable backup to en external USB disk using Carbon Copy Cloner. Erasing the internal disk and copying back using CCC will create a new UUID then I guess ...
I will try that in the next couple of days and report back here. Thanks a lot for all your help and explanations so far, much appreciated!

How to create a new database instance from an existing one?

Hi, I basically want to create a snapshot of a production
instance (version 8.1.7) for querying purposes. Would anyone
tell me the steps involved? What I did as follows:
1. Copy all data files to a new location
2. Modify init.ora accordingly. I believe there is no separate
control file for this version.
But when I startup the instance, got this error:
ORA-01103: database name 'TRITON' in controlfile is not 'HERCULE'
What is missing? Do these data files contains links to the
previous instance name?
Thanks for any help.

Hi All,
I need some help in recreating new database instance.
Here are the steps I have done so far:
1. Created a database with name 'LASTDB' using DBCA
2. Connected to RMAN.
3. RMAN>SET DBID=******; (of the source database)
4. Connect to target. RMAN>connect target SYS/*****;
5. Executed controlfile restore on RMAN.
RMAN>Run{
Allocate channel D1 Type DISK;
Set controlfile autobackup format for device type DISK to
\\<ip_address>\Backup\Prod\%F;
Restore controlfile from autobackup;
6. RMAN> ALTER DATABASE MOUNT;
Now got an error saying ORA-01103: database name PRODDB' in control file is not LASTDB
I tried using NID to change the database name but it's throwing an error that database is not mounted.
I have browsed a lot and found that I need to recreate a control file of the production database using ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE and should edit the trace file. But it also says to shutdown the source database which is production database and I cannot try that.
Also I have tried adding a line to init.ora like lock_space_name = LASTDB. Also tried replacing everything from LASTDB to PRODDB but that didn't work either.
I have been trying to find a solution to this. Please bear with me as I'm a beginner and please let me know how I can fix the error.
I am running oracle 10.1.0.2.0 enterprise edition on windows 2000.
Thanks for your patience,

Rel 12 - How to create a new APPS connection from custom Java/Shell Script

Hi,
I am looking to write a custom JAVA code / Shell Script which needs to establish a connection to execute a PL/SQL API on Rel 12 db.
The challenge is to be able to connect without specifying APPS Password anywhere (just like Oracle Apps does it).
This Shell script / Java code is not called from within Apps hence I need to establish a brand new connection along the lines of using ....
WebAppsContext ctx = new WebAppsContext(System.getProperty("JTFDBCFILE"));
OracleConnection conn = (OracleConnection)ctx.getJDBCConnection();
like in 11i world or possibly using APPLSYSPUB username
I need help / direction in how to do this in a Rel 12 env. I understnad there are lot of architecture changes and if someone can provide a generic code snipped it will be great.
I need to keep this as closely aligned to Rel 12 coding and security standards as possible.
This code will reside in $XXCUSTOM_TOP/bin file or under XXCUSTOM.oracle.apps.java....... if its Java.
Pls help.
Cheers
-- VK.

Hi,
Have you looked at Oracle produced dbc file and its contents? That might help. It is under $FND_TOP/secure. It uses GWYUID=APPLSYSPUB/PUB. I am hoping that the APPS_JDBC_URL would help too.

How to create a new Itunes Library file

Hi all, I stoe all my Itunes music / photos / vids etc on an external hard drive and recently decided to erase and reinstall Mac OS X (Mac was running slow). I still have all my music on the external drive but need to recreate my itunes library. I tried 'File Add to Library but this just copies all the music back to my HDD.
Anyone have any ideas?

Check your preferences and make sure that iTunes recognises that the music folder is on the external drive and doesn't try to use the one in the default location. Connect your drive, open iTunes and go to iTunes>Preferences>Advanced and where it says "iTunes Music folder location" use the Change button to choose the folder on your external.

New itunes library from itunes music

can someone tell me how to create a new itunes library file from the actual itunes music folder - both library files are corrupt (that is to say - blank, no songs - don't ask) - the itunes music folder has all the music - if i open it and click on songs they play in itunes, but when i open itunes there are no songs listed. there has got to be a way to re-create the library file - it's just a database that points to the actual music files, and i have the music. i just don't have the pointers.
thanks - robert

Move the existing iTunes(not iTunes Music) folder when iTunes isn't running, open iTunes, and drag the iTunes Music folder as well as anywhere else on the hard disk where the music may be stored into the open iTunes window.

How do I move my iTunes library from my iPod Classic to my new laptop without losing my music in the synch process?

How do I move my iTunes library from my iPod Classic to my new laptop without ;osong a;; my music in the synch process?

Hi FWFFP,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The article below will explain how to get music onto your new computer. I'd personally recommend the option of copying the iTunes library from your current computer to an external drive, because it creates a backup for you as well:

How can I create a new Music Library?

Had to buy new laptop which of course has Vista. The old unit was acting up(I think Windows XP was corrupt), so I saved my Library Files but it looks like the old machine only saved portions not the whole Library. I had approx. 13,000 tunes (35GB) in the LIbrary and all that was saved seems to be 319 tunes. I have all the music on an external HD and only the Library was on the laptop. My question is, how can I create a new Library from the external HD music? Is there a way or am I SOL? Any suggestions and help would be greatly appreciated.

You need the entire libary on the external, not just media.

Once you get a complete iTunes folder on the external drive, start iTunes with the option/alt key held down and select the iTunes Library.itl file on the external drive. You will also need to do this with your main computer or the libraries will become unsynchronized.
Alternatively you can make a separate library using the same media on the second computer. Start as you have been doing, let iTunes create a new, blank library file which will be on hte internal drive, set the media folder location in preferences to be the one on the external drive, then add the files to the new iTunes library. Unless you are a super-organized individual, or you don't care if your libraries do not have the same content, you are better off using a single library file that is on the external, not setting up separate library files.

I am in Aperture 3, editing from raw, getting bouncing ball every few edits. i created a new aperture library to see if this would help. it does not. i have to force quit to keep working. I shoot alot as my work.. this is making the process take lon

I am in Aperture 3, editing from RAW, i get a beachball every 5 or so edits, so have to force quit to keep working.
I created a new aperture library to see if that would remedy the situation.. it does not.
Very time consuming.. can anyone help? ami doing something wrong? looked for software updates on my computer and did not fine any for aperture.
any ideas? Thank you

How much RAM, how full is the hard drive, and what computer? 8 GB RAM is recommended, and I also recommend that you do not upgrade to OS 10.7 Lion at this time.
