How to remove and desktops photos

I use snow leopard. When I go to preferences - desktop, and find apple-iphoto-folders-pictures on the left hand side. My desktop pictures are located in the pictures folder. I would like to delete some of these, and add others from a file located on the desktop. Can someone explain to me how to do this?

What I do is create a special folder for Desktop Pictures in my Pictures folder, with sub-folders in that containing copies of different types of desktop picture themes.
I have over 650 very nice scenic desktop pictures that is unnecessary to have duplicates in iPhoto.
Also I don't want all of my iPhoto's as a desktop, just a few selected ones, so I created a personal folder for that in the Desktop Pictures folder and placed copies from iPhoto in there.
Then I point System Preferences > Desktop to add "+" or remove "-" those folders to the selection of choices in Desktop pictures (it doesn't add or delete the photo's themselves)
Then I select a folder of photo's that way and set the rotation cycle.
I had a incident once there iPhoto glitch displayed a persona pic as a desktop background and caused me some embarassement with a client.
So now I keep iPhoto the heck out of choosing what's displayed on the screen unless I specifically call for it.

    hi, can anyone help me how to remove and replace the memory of sat A30-921. and also, please give a detailed instruction.
    thank you in advance.

    Hi
    There is no much to explain. At the bottom side in the middle there is placed memory cover (fixed with two screws). Remove the cover and you will see 2 slots there. I dont know how much memory has you there but as Stefan said you can use max 2 GB of RAM (2x PC2700 1024MB - PA3313U-1M1G). How to remove memory modules you can see on http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/189/5

  • How to remove thousands of photos from ipad

    Hi all,
    When I was at vacation I imported about 7560 photos from my digital camera into the new iPad.
    At home I imported all the photos from the ipad to Aperure and clicked "delete all the photos from the iPad".
    Aperture really removed some photos (about 2 GBs from 45 GBs) and now shows me an "empty" iPad.
    But the most of photos still are on the iPad. Aperture doesn't see any photos more, even after restarting.
    Okay, then I tried iPhoto. iPhoto sees photos, but doesn't want to remove photos.
    Then I tried my windows PC - it could remove a couple of photos but got an error after deleting multiple photos at once.
    Then I tried Image Capture on my Mac - it removes about ten photos and then loses the ipad. Loses means it doesn't see the iPad under devices, even after restarting the app. After rejecting and reconnecting the iPad I can remove other 8 or 10 photos with Image Capture and it loses the iPad again.
    Now, after about 2 hours I still have 6271 photos on the iPad.
    Can some one help me to delete all the photos at once from my new iPad?
    iPad 3rd gen WiFi + 4G, 64 GB, iOS 5.1.1
    Macbook Pro 13" with OS X 10.7.4

  • How to remove and reinstall PSE 10?

    I am unable to edit PSE 10 to completion.  The editing works fine until I try to close it.   It doesn't finish and I get an error message "failed to import" (to Organizer) with a bar chart showing 95% completion.  In effect, I can't edit.  One other oddity that surfaced and may(?) be related is that when I try to open PSE, it opens the Editor.  I can then open the Organizer from the Editor, but that's not the way things should work.   I've had wonderful Adobe community help, but the problem persists.  I'm well past my knowlege, and I suspect (but am not certain) I need to remove and replace my current PSE 10.  I do not have a disc as I downloaded the original.  How do I proceed?  Thanks in advance ...

  • How to remove and assign the subclsss in Migration.

    Hi All,
    I am migrating the form 6i appliaction form 6i to 10g with database as 9i.
    I am trying to migrate the form 6i files to 10g.
    I have get the referenced emb file (subclass file) from the database and made the Object library from this file. I have put the olb file in the registery path of the forms.After this I have open the form in the migration tool and migrate the form. I have done the changes according to the LOG file. But when I am opening the form it is not getting the subclass files so that it is asking the database connection.
    Can any body please advice me how to remove the subclss information at the time of migration from database to file so that after migration it will take the subclss refrence from the olb file.
    Can any body just advice how to migrate the forms 6i to 10g in steps OR any document, URL (Specially removing the referencce and taking the new reference from OLB)
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Not eactly the same but there was a set of Forms that reference another Form for subclasses rather than the OLB. I've managed to sort that out using JDAPI and here is a sample bit of code. Basically , going through property classes and removing then and then adding the property classes object group from the OLB. It seemed to do the trick didn't upset the properties of the items using the class. It may be of help to you.
    There was no migration in this : just a fix on a Forms 10g module. I'd yes you could do the same, migrate to 10g and then use JDAPI to fix the form.

  • How to remove KDE desktop?

    After using XFCE for a while, I decide that it will be my main DE, so I'd like to uninstall KDE desktop.
    But of course I'd still like to use KDE apps like Kile or Kdevelop.
    Is there any easy way to do that? I guess "pacman -R kde" is not the answer, because it will remove the entire KDE.
    Or maybe I have to remove the packages manually, like "pacman -R kdegames", or "pacman -R kdeedu" ?
    Back when I was using Ubuntu, I could to this using "apt-get remove kde-desktop"

    Check the dependencies of your required packages (you'd use pacman -Qi instead). That way you know exactly what to keep and what to chuck.

  • How to REMOVE AND DELETE saved customizations applied to different accounts

    Hi Experts
    I have created and saved a customization called *'Hidden Graph'* through the front end (under page options)
    I saved this customization against different application roles (BI Consumer / BI Author)
    Now I No longer need to apply customiaztiion *'Hidden Graph'*
    Can someone tell me where these customizations are saved so I can REMOVE AND DELETE it ?
    Thanks
    Hiten

    To find the location and deleting from catalog, try to use catalog manager and use search xml for text 'Hidden Graph'
    You can find them in sub folders of _selections folder in catalog
    ex:
    \users\weblogic\_selections
    Just in case if you want to delete then you can do finding files like
    Hidden+Graph
    Hidden+Graph.atr
    Nowhere mentioned deleting other than clearing check this doc once

    I would use an ObservableList (probably backed by a LinkedList) of XYChart.Data to store the collection of "deleted" data points. Create the buttons as usual; your "Remove" button's event handler should remove the last element of the series and add it to the first element of the deleted items data points. The "Add" button should remove the first element of the deleted data points and add it to the end of the series. You can bind the "disable" property of the remove and add button to Bindings.isEmpty(series1.getData()) and Bindings.isEmpty(deletedDataPoints), respectively.
    Something like
    ObservableList<XYChart.Data<Number, Number>> deletedDataPoints = FXCollections.observableList(new LinkedList<XYChart.Data<Number, Number>>());
    removeButton.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {
      @Override
      public void handle(ActionEvent event) {
        deletedDataPoints.add(0, series1.getData().remove(series1.getData().size()-1));
    addButton.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {
      @Override
      public void handle(ActionEvent event) {
        series1.getData().add(deletedDataPoints.remove(0));
    removeButton.disableProperty().bind(Bindings.isEmpty(series1.getData()));
    addButton.disableProperty().bind(Bindings.isEmpty(deletedDataPoints));The other approach would be to use a separate List for all the data points, and keep an integer variable storing the number of data points displayed. Your "remove" button would decrement the number displayed, and your "add" button would increment the number displayed. Both would also call
    series1.getData().setAll(allDataPoints.sublist(0, numberOfDisplayedPoints));You might even be able to make the numberOfDisplayedPoints an IntegerProperty and bind the data property of the series to it in a nice way. This approach probably doesn't perform as well as the previous approach (using a stack of deleted points), because you are not directly giving the chart as much detailed information about what has changed.
    Both approaches get problematic (in the sense that you need to carefully define your application logic, and then implement it) if the underlying data has the potential to change.

  • Remote Desktop Services: corrupt system database, how to remove and start again?

    Hi. This is my first Windows Server 2012 R2 installation, and I have a made a small mess. I'd be very grateful for any assistance in sorting it out.
    I had some problems which I eventually tracked down to an incorrectly installed SSL certificate, but during my diagnostics, I foolishly deleted a row from a system table, thinking that if it messed up, I could always reinsert the row. Forgetting of course
    that I couldn't recreate the ID of the original record because it's an auto-ID field. So I realise I'm an idiot.
    I logged in to SQL server using:
    \\.\pipe\MICROSOFT##WID\tsql\query
    and deleted a row from:
    Databases/RDCms/Tables/rds.Target
    and from:
    Databases/RDCms/Tables/rds.Pool
    Predictably enough, the database is no longer coherent and RDWeb is not working properly, and I need to remove RDS and reinstall it.
    I thought that removing the RDS server role and adding it again would do it, but the erroneous data is still there.
    How can I get rid of it and start from a clean slate?
    Thank you in advance for any help.
