Still works on iPad but not on Mac.

When you have iPhoto and Contacts open and try to drag a picture for iPhoto to the Contacts photo frame do you get a + symbol? if not you should!  from there the the pop menu should appear and then you can select the picture and click on done

  • In iphoto11when I go to advanced preferences to choose an external editor (PSE11), the drop down menu just shows iPhoto and DSCF0586, which if chosen takes me to the desktop. How do I get rid of DSCF0586 and insert Adobe Elements11?

    Click on DSCF0586 and then navigate to the PSE 11 application and select it.
    Be sure to select the right PSE 11 file, the one in the Support Files folder:

  • How do I get a drop down menu to auto default to option selected a value other than the default written in the javascript?

    I use web based software where I have to select from a drop down menu a particular option. However, I only ever use 1 option. Sometimes as much as 100 times a day. Is there anyway to get Firefox to auto select the same option every time? I don't have access to the source code so I cant change <option selected="selected" value="">.

    A possibility would be a Greasemonkey script to do this automatically or a JavaScript bookmarklet to do it manually.
    You would need to remove the selected="selected" from the currently selected option and set that attribute for the wanted option.
    You can test the bookmarklet here:
    *https://developer.mozilla.org/en/HTML/Element/select
    <pre><nowiki>javascript:(function(){var d=document,s=d.getElementsByTagName('SELECT')[0],o=s.getElementsByTagName('OPTION'),S='selected',v='value1',i;for(i=0;O=o[i];i++){if(O.value==v){O.setAttribute(S,S);O.selected=true}else{O.removeAttribute(S);O.selected=false;}}})();</nowiki></pre>
    If there are more 'selects' then you need to adjust the element number [0] and you also need to adjust the value of the wanted option.

  • After updating iOS 6 in my iPod Touch 4th Gen, my Synced photos from computer are all gone. The remaining pictures are only in the Camera Roll. HELP THANKS :)

    Hello! I updated my itouch 4g with iOS 6 using iTunes at Windows 7. After updating, my musics and videos are still there but my synced photos from the computer are lost. The only remaining photos are from the Camera Roll. I lost 4000 photos. What will I do to restore them? Thanks for thise who will help :)

    You need to obtain the synced photos from where you obtained them the first time. Synced media like apps, music and synced photos are not included in the backup that iTunes makes as the first step of an update or restore.

  • Will Mountain Lion allow the transfer of photos from iPod to iMac?

    Hi
    I'm aware that in previous versions of OS X, one can transfer photos actually taken on an iPod touch, but not those previously sent to the ipod by ones iMac.
    I'm wondering if this inability has been overcome in Mountain Lion.
    Advice welcomed.
    Btw, I've located some software which will, it appears, do the job!  http://www.iskysoft.com/syncpod.html
    Has anyone used this software successfully? Are you aware of any other product suitable for such purpose?
    Cheers!
    Dave

    now need to know how I get these photos onto my
    P.C. I use the Microsoft Scanner and Camera Wizard
    when I transfer photos from the camera to the p.c.
    but cant use this for the ipod.
    Why not?
    If it doesn't work as you normall use it, open iTunes
    prefs -> iPod and check Enable disk use.
    It should show up in your program.
    If is still does not, you can open the iPod (it's on
    the desktop) and your photos are in the DCIM folder.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301059
    Thank you so much for your help. I've been feeling a bit dense about it all!
    I managed to find the photos in the DCIM folder and from there I called each one up and copied them individually to "My Pictures". It's a bit long winded but it has the desired result which is to display them from My Pictures as a slide show on my P.C.
    It's fun trying it all out, today I also managed (not quite sure how) to download some French language lessons and upload them on the ipod. I'm sure I'm probably not using the most efficient methods but I'll keep going ! Thank you once again for being so helpful.

  • Cannot add photos from my own MobileMe gallery to my library

    Computer A and Computer B are both linked to the same MobileMe account and both have iPhoto '08. I published a set of photos to a new MobileMe gallery using Computer A. I can view the gallery on Computer B, but I can't edit the photos on Computer B or add the photos to my library on Computer B. The edit buttons are grayed out.
    I can use Computer B to create a new album from the photos in the MobileMe gallery, but they still cannot be edited and they don't actually appear in the library.
    Does anyone know of a way to get the photos into my library on Computer B short of downloading each photo individually to Computer B and then importing in the Computer B library?

    To get the photos on to B you'll need to subscribe to the gallery and download. However, you can only edit those published files on the computer that created the gallery.
    If the two computers are linked together via a hard wired LAN you can have B log into A and use the library there. Or put the library on a external HD connected to A and let B access it there.
    Send a feature request to Apple for what you'd like to be able to do via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

  • Updating drop down menu depending on another drop down menu

    Hi!
    I'm making this questionnaire, and it has 10 questions (q01 to q10).
    Each question has 4 sub-questions with an associated drop-down menu (q01L1 to q01L4, q02L1 to q02L4, etc.).
    The values available to select from the drop-down menu are: 1, 2, 3, and 4.
    For each sub-question, the user has to select a value (1, 2, 3, or 4), and that value can only be selected once for each question as a whole.
    I suppose that JavaScript will be able to remove, update, or rebuild the other drop-down menus according to the answer given to each sub-question. How can it be achieved? I have no idea how to make that happen. Could you help?
    Thanks.
    For example :
    This is what the user actually see BEFORE filling the question :
    Question 1 : When disagreeing on points of view, I get influenced by
    [Drop-down menu 1] : The tone/volume of voice of the person with whom I speak.
    [Drop-down menu 2] : My capability or incapability to understand the point of view of the person with whom I speak.
    [Drop-down menu 3] : The logic and the rationale on which the person with whom I speak bases his/her opinion.
    [Drop-down menu 4] : Whether or not the person with whom I speak is sensible to what I may feel.
    The following is for you to visualise the way I named the fields in the PDF questionnaire :
    q01 : When disagreeing on points of view, I get influenced by
    q01L1 {1,2,3,4} : The tone/volume of voice of the person with whom I speak.
    q01L2 {1,2,3,4} : My capability or incapability to understand the point of view of the person with whom I speak.
    q01L3 {1,2,3,4} : The logic and the rationale on which the person with whom I speak bases his/her opinion.
    q01L3 {1,2,3,4} : Whether or not the person with whom I speak is sensible to what I may feel.
    q01 = the name I gave to the question 1
    L1 = the name I gave to the sub-question 1
    q01L1 = the name I gave to the drop-drop menu of the sub-question 1 of the question 1
    {1,2,3,4} = the answers the user can select from the menu.
    The user can answer :
    4 : The tone/volume of voice of the person with whom I speak.
    2 : My capability or incapability to understand the point of view of the person with whom I speak.
    1 : The logic and the rationale on which the person with whom I speak bases his/her opinion.
    3 : Whether or not the person with whom I speak is sensible to what I may feel
    But cannot answer :
    4 : The tone/volume of voice of the person with whom I speak.
    2 : My capability or incapability to understand the point of view of the person with whom I speak.
    1 : The logic and the rationale on which the person with whom I speak bases his/her opinion.
    4 : Whether or not the person with whom I speak is sensible to what I may feel
    This is where the JavaScript comes into play. What can be done to remove, update, or rebuild the other drop-down menus according to the answer given to each sub-question?
    If the user answers 4 to q01L1, the 3 other drop-down menus should look like this
    4 : The tone/volume of voice of the person with whom I speak.
    q01L2 {1,2,3} : My capability or incapability to understand the point of view of the person with whom I speak.
    q01L3 {1,2,3} : The logic and the rationale on which the person with whom I speak bases his/her opinion.
    q01L3 {1,2,3} : Whether or not the person with whom I speak is sensible to what I may feel.
    And then, if the user answers 2 to q01L2, the 2 last drop-down menus should look like this
    4 : The tone/volume of voice of the person with whom I speak.
    2 : My capability or incapability to understand the point of view of the person with whom I speak.
    q01L3 {1,3} : The logic and the rationale on which the person with whom I speak bases his/her opinion.
    q01L3 {1,3} : Whether or not the person with whom I speak is sensible to what I may feel.
    And so on.

    I'm sure that question is an FAQ in whatever language you're asking about. But you should really find the forum for that language. This is the forum for Java programming and that ain't Java.

  • How do I get the Back Button drop down menu back?

    When surfing in a tab there used to be a drop down menu next to the forward and back buttons. It was a little tiny triangle looking arrow. This was really useful and needed. It is gone in Firefox 4 as far as I can see. I am using the default 4.0 Theme. If it is not there anymore I will have to go going back to 3.16 if the drop down menu is gone. Thanks for any help.

    ''How do I get the Back Button drop down menu back?''
    * "'''Back/forward dropmarker'''" extension<br>https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker/
    I do prefer Right-click on tab for tab history, or hold a couple of seconds, as the drop-down marker takes up space and had been removing it myself. Although I think it should have been an option.

  • How can I get the airport drop down menu to allow me to enter a WPA2 Personal Password

    Powerbook G4, with Airport Card firmware 9.52. Through the System Preferences, Network, using the "edit" button, I can enter a WPA2 Personal password, but when I go to connect to the network, the drop down menu only allows me to enter a WEP Password.  And, obviously, I get an error message saying I have the wrong password. Why can I use WPA2 in the system preferences, but the airport menu doesn't then allow me to enter a WPA2 password to connect?

    Try Connect to Other... from the Airport menu.

  • If I buy a mac with mountain lion and then upgrade to mavericks wil I get iWork for free, If I buy a mac with mountain lion and then upgrade to mavericks wil I get iWork for free

    If I buy a mac with mountain lion and then upgrade to mavericks will I get iWork for free.

    If you buy a new Mac with Mountain Lion, any included software is free and can be redownloaded from AppStore for that machine only. Some software only gets reinstalled if OS X (only) gets installed over itself to fix issues. See #8 Step here.
    ..Step by Step to fix your Mac
    If you upgrade to Mavericks usually only OS X itself is changed (sometimes the hidden User Library is also), all the  software (and user accounts) also carries over (compatible or not), and Apple's software is upgraded.
    So if your new Mountain Lion Mac comes with free iWork, then when you upgrade to Mavericks it will still be there.
    If your new Mountain Lion does not come with free iWork, then it won't magically appear for free if you upgrade to Mavericks.
    If you need a free Office suit, I suggest you look at the donationware LibreOffice.
    You will likely need to control key or right click to "Open" LibreOffice to approve through OS X's "Gatekeeper".
    You will need to manually update it also, as it's not on AppStore.
    https://www.libreoffice.org/
    Benefit of LibreOffice is it's completely cross-platform compatible, so you can share working files with Windows and Linux users, which you can't with iWork.
    You also should learn Microsoft Office when you have the funds, because it's standardized in the business world.

  • I have a Mac with mountain lion 10.7.5 but iPhoto is 08 how do i up grade

    I have a Mac with Mountain Lion 10.7.5 but still have Iphoto 08 how do i upgrade to a later version ?

    10.7.5 is OS X Lion.
    The iPhoto version available in the Mac App Store is only compatible with OS X Mavericks, that you can download from the Mac App Store. If you want to upgrade, first make a backup of your files with Time Machine and check that your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com After upgrading, purchase iPhoto from the Mac App Store and use iPhoto Library Upgrader.
    If you do not want to upgrade, buy iLife '11 in a DVD at Amazon, and install it. Then, open  > Software Update, and install the latest iLife version, including iPhoto

  • Updated my mac to mountain lion 10.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install? Can anyone help me?

    updated my mac to mountain lion 10.7.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install saying that I need to see developer. Whenever I try to open my appstore, mail or facetime it says that the programmes need to be installed and might not be compatible with this version of mac operating system. Can anyone help me?

    It's not a bad install of Mountain Lion. I've had the same thing happen to me, but it affected not only Mail, but a variety of other programs including iPhoto and MS Office, where I had to delete preferences, caches, and reinstall the OS as well as the program itself. I'm still having issues with Mail, so I've gone to another program.
    Everything was fine upon the initial install. I restarted my iMac about two weeks after the install, and that's when the issues began to happen. I've reinstalled Mountain Lion twice, but the same issues arise.
    As I mentioned above, you'll need to figure out which preferences are causing the issue, then reinstall the program, as a fresh reinstallation will do you no good unless you wipe the drive completely.
