  • Can some please provide instructions on how to import an iPhoto library from an old Mac to a new Mac without getting a bunch of duplicates?  I tried transferring my pictures using an external hard drive and then copying it to the Pictures folder on my Mac

    Can someone please provide instructions on how to import an iPhoto library from an old Mac to a new Mac without getting a bunch of duplicates?  I tried transferring my pictures using an external hard drive and then copying it to the Pictures folder on my new Mac.  I ended up getting a bunch of duplicates. My old Mac has an older version of iPhoto while the new Mac has iPhoto '11.  Is that the cause of the problem?  Please advise.  Thanks.

    Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
    Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
    This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.

  • I have a password problem. After importing data and settings from one MacBook Pro to a new one, I have to put my iCloud password in when re-starting, but the password from the old computer in when waking the computer from sleep.

    I have a password problem. After importing data and settings from one MacBook Pro to a new one, I have to put my iCloud password in when re-starting the new computer, but the password from the old computer in when waking the computer from sleep. I want to use my iCloud password on both computers consistently. How can I fix this?

    The only other place to change a password for the computer login is in Users & Groups preferences. But I don't really know enough here to fix your problem. You can try fixing the keychain:
    iCloud- Frequently asked questions about iCloud Keychain
    Tutorial: Resolving Keychain Issues
    If you can't access your keychain, or forget your password If you can't get into your keychain file because you've forgotten your password or the keychain file appears to be corrupt, there are a couple of options.
    First, if you've forgotten your password, you can use the "Keychain First Aid" utility to make the keychain password the same as the login password. This can be accomplished via the following process:
      1. Open Keychain Access (located in Applications/Utilities)
      2. Go to the "Keychain Access" menu and select "Preferences"
      3. Click the "First Aid" tab
      4. Make sure the "Synchronize login keychain password" box is checked
      5. Close the Preferences window
      6. Go to the "Keychain Access" menu and select "Keychain First Aid"
      7. Enter your username and password
      8. Click the "Repair" button
    The second option is to completely delete your keychain then recreate it. This routine is useful if your keychain appears to be corrupt or otherwise inaccessible. This can be accomplished as follows:
      1. Launch Keychain Access (located in Applications/Utilities)
      2. Click "Show Keychains" in the lower-left corner of the window.
      3. Select the problematic keychain from the left-hand pane.
      4. Navigate to the "File" menu and select "Delete Keychain '(name of keychain)'"
      5. Check all options for deletion and press "OK"
      6. Create a new keychain by going to the "File" menu, then "New" and selecting
          "New Keychain"
      7. You can now make this keychain your default if you desire by selecting it, then
          going to the "File" menu and selecting "Make '(name of keychain)' Default"
    Login as root and perform repair In some cases, problems with keychains can only be resolved when logged in as the root user.
    First, you want to enable the root user:
      1. OS X Mountain Lion: Enable and disable the root user
      2. OS X Lion: Enable and disable the root user
      3. Mac OS X 10.6: Enabling the root user
      4. Enabling and using the "root" user in Mac OS X
    After enabling the root user, and logging in under this account, again open Keychain Access. First attempt repairs using Keychain First Aid, and failing that, delete then recreate the keychain as described above while logged in as root.
    Persistently asked for stored passwords If you are persistently asked for passwords in various applications that you have specified should be remembered in a keychain, your "login" keychain may not be active for one reason or another.
    Navigate to ~/Library/Keychains/ (this is the Library folder inside your user's home folder). Find the file named "login.keychain" and double-click it.
    Failing that, select the "login" keychain within the Keychain Access application and make sure it is the default keychain by going to the "File" menu and selecting "Make 'Login' Default"
    Turn off Keychain synchronization in applications having problems If specific applications are experiencing issues when accessing password-protected material, the Keychain may be to blame.
    The above comes from an article published on MacFixit.com.

  • How to Import xsd and use it in transformation for mapping

    I have constructed an xsd and want to use it in BPEL Process.I imported the xsd into development.But I am unable to understand how to further proceed.Can anybody suggest me how to import xsd and use it as it has to be defined in wsdl before using right.Is there any way we can use xsd?

    Hi',
    See in a BPEL (web service) we use XSD to define its input and output, inside this BPEL process you have input and output variable.
    Now inside the transform you can use this variables to transform data, there can be many other variables too, when you try to invoke
    some other BPEL process you again create new input and output variable.
    Inside a transform activity you have a source and a target there you can decide where all the input is coming from you could have
    one or many variables in source and only 1 in target, this is how your variables (or XSD) can go inside the transform, inside the transform.xsl
    view you can right click on the source side(left) and include any new variable there.

  • How can I import Firefox bookmarks, now stored in User folder on same (new) PC, into Firefox?

    How can I import Firefox bookmarks, now stored in User folder on same (new) PC, into Firefox? I have exported the Firefox bookmarks from my old PC into a [Windows 8] folder on my new PC.
    When I use the Firefox import facility, it will only import one bookmark at a time - and then it bookmarks all the main pages on the bookmarked website, not just the one which I originally bookmarked. It also does not import the information stored in the bookmark tag.

    Sure thing.
    # Open the run dialog by holding the Windows key and pressing R
    # Type <code>%appdata%</code> into the run window and press ok
    # Open the ''Mozilla'' folder
    # Open the ''Firefox'' folder
    # Open the ''Profiles'' folder
    # Copy the folder that is located in this folder to a USB drive
    # Install and run Firefox on the new computer
    # Close Firefox
    # Repeat steps 1 to 5 on the new computer
    # Open the folder that you copied from the old computer
    # Copy the contents of that folder into the folder located inside of the new computer's profile folder
    # Allow Windows to replace any duplicate folders with the ones that you are copying onto the computer is prompted

  • How to import user and group at EPM11.1.2?

    I found a similar topic on this at User & Groups Issue
    But sounds like there is big change a tEPM11.1.2, I didn't find CSSImportExport utility at all.
    Could anyone tell me how to import users and groups from flat file at this version?
    Thanks
    Tony

    You can only use LCM from 11.1.2, it is not really that different format from the CSSImportExport utility.
    I find the best way is to set up a few users and provisioning and then use LCM to export, then you get a good feel to the format of the file.
    Cheers

  • How can I fix an invalid sibling link error message without my original install disk?

    How can I fix an invalid sibling link error message without my original install disk?

    Hi Jeff,
    It's not even likely the Install Disc could fix that, but if you want to try...
    Does it boot to Single User Mode, CMD+s keys at bootup, if so try...
    /sbin/fsck -fy
    Repeat until it shows no errors fixed.
    (Space between fsck AND -fy important).
    Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck...

    You must repair the HD, your best bet is likely DiskWarrior.

    Finally, you should run DiskWarrior if your Mac explicitly warns you of a problem with your disk in the form of an error message. Most of these errors are reported by the built-in Disk Utility whether your Mac OS X version is 10.3 Panther, 10.4 Tiger, 10.5 Leopard, 10.6 Snow Leopard or 10.7 Lion. Here are some of the most common messages:
    Disk Repair: The disk was not repairable by this computer. It is being made available to you with limited functionality. You must back up your data and reformat the disk as soon as possible.
    The underlying task reported failure on exit.

  • How do I migrate files created in a Windows OS to a new external drive that is formatted as a MAC drive. I want to read and write these files back to the new drive.

    If all you're trying to do is move the files from the Windows external to the Mac external, you can simply connect them both to the Mac and drag the files from the Windows drive to the Mac drive. If you want to move the files back and forth between them, you'll need to establish the format of the Windows external. Macs can read and write to FAT32 and exFAT (which can handle files larger than 4GB) formatted drives but can only read NTFS formatted drives without additional software. With the Windows drive connected, you can check its format with Disk Utility.

  • How to Import Chapter Names Created in Premiere Pro CS6 to Encore CS6?

    I edited a sequence in Prmiere Pro CS6 and then I created and named all my Encore Chapter Markers while still in Ppro. I then opened Encore CS6 and used the Adobe Dynamic Link to import my Premiere Pro CS6 sequence into Encore CS6 and created a new timeline from that sequence. I imported a Menu (which I created in Photoshop) and linked the first chapter to button 1 in my menu and then used Create Chapter Index to bhild all the menus. How do I get the Chapter names to automatically appear in these menus without having to retype each one?

    Select a button and look at properties. Check the option "Set Name From Link." You can select multiple buttons and do them at one go.

  • How do I set up an html link to open in a new window outside of the PDF?

    I've done a lot of searching and cannot find an answer to this dilemma. I create press releases for my employer's website in InDesign, then export as PDFs. They appear as icons on the "news" page of our site, which the user clicks to open and read. Each PR has links to various pages on our site, but I want those links to open in a new browser window so that the user can still read the PR. I understand this option is not available in InDesign PDF export, but can I modify the link in Acrobat X, then resave? If so, how?
    Thanks for your help.

    The only way I know of is to use a JavaScript action with a link/button that uses the app.launcURL method where bNewFrame is set to true: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.150.html

  • FCPX: How to import, transcode and keep an Event on an external drive

    I was given 300 GB of media files, mostly Quicktime movies, on a read-only NTFS format Lacie drive. I tried importing into FCPX, checked the optimized and proxy transcoding options as well as import folders as Keyword Collections option, and it took hours for less than 1/3 of the media to render, then I got a warning that my startup disc was almost full.
    I assume the best thing to do is start over, and move my files to another read-and-write drive so that I can keep the transcoded files off my Mac.
    But my main question concerns the FCPX Events folder:
    If all media and other project-related info is stored in the Events folder on my Mac, how can I keep the transcoded media on an external drive? Do I just uncheck “Copy files to Final Cut Events folder” in the Import dialog? (If I uncheck it, where are the transcoded files copied to, and how are they organized? What stays in the Events folder on the Mac, and what goes on the external drive?)
    Also, should I not bother transcoding, or just select one of the options (which one, and why?) I’m editing a 12-15 minute narrative film – mostly cuts, probably no effects, but will color correct and add titles and sound fx/music.
    Any insight for this process, as well as practical advice, would be greatly appreciated, as I’m trying to fully understand and start off the right way before I dive into this edit. Thanks in advance! 

    I would create a new Event in FCPX first so that I can choose which drive those files are going to end up on.
    Then, Import your files.  Choose the Event they should be Imported to.  If you want it to copy the files to that Event onto the drive it was created on, then choose Copy Files to Events Folder.  It will only copy, not just move the files.  If you are copying them onto your MBP's hard drive...yeah, that's probably going to fill up unless you've upgraded that drive.  And yes, 300GB of media can take a while to process and copy, especially if you are Optimizing and creating Proxies.
    In my experience, Optimized files can get fairly large I'm not sure of the percentage) and Proxy files have ended up about 1/2 the size of the originals.  If you are creating Optimized files, Proxy files, AND copying the original media...you have three versions of the files and that 300GB may end up being about 1TB that FCPX is creating.
    If you want to work primarily with proxies, I would NOT copy the original file, but I would have FCPX create the proxies in the Event folder on your hard drive.  If you just gotta have Optimized files for your final output...I would wait until you are ready for output to create those.  If you only have the Proxy files on your laptop, with the original files on their original drive, then it should only take up 150-200GB on your laptop hard drive.  At that point, you can leave FCPX in proxy mode (got to FCXP>Preferences>Playback>Use proxy files
    If you detach the external hard drive, the original files will show up as missing, but proxy mode should recognize the Proxy files in the Event folder.
    If you still want to create Optimized files, Proxy files and copy the Original Media, get a separate external drive that will have the room you need and one you can edit from.
    For large projects where I have a lot of footage, I edit and add effects in Proxy mode and then switch to Original/Optimized>Highest Quality for final color grading, rendering and exporting.
    Hope that helps!  al the best!
