I've imported an iPhoto library from a disc to my iPhoto 09 account, but I have to leave the disc in to view the pictures in full screen... Is there a way to import the files to my hard drive?

I've imported an iPhoto library from a disc to my iPhoto 09 account,
What exactly did you do?
Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.

There are way too many photos on my internal hard drive. I have older libraries, and newer libraires in iPhoto and Aperture 2. What is the best way to find and reduce the number of duplicate photos/libraries before upgrading to Aperture 3?

Good idea.
Back up first.
I would probably wait for the merge function of the latest version before merging. Be sure to verify every merge.
Merge Libraries, then from within Aperture move images to referenced on external hard drives.

If I backed up with a newer version of iOS than the phone I am trying to backup to.. Is there any way to bypass the setup assistant in order to download the new iOS on the new phone then go back and restore from my old phone?

Try deleting your last backup by turning off iCloud Backup in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, then tap Manage Storage, swipe across your backup and tap Delete, then go back and turn iCloud Backup back on again. If it still won't back up, you may have an app that is preventing the backup from succeeding. To locate which one, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll) and try backing up again. If it succeeds, then the camera roll and/or one of your apps is preventing the backup and you'll have to located by process of elimination. Turn the camera roll On and try backing up again. If it succeeds, turn some of your apps to On and try backing up again. If it succeeds again, turn some more apps to On then try again; repeat this process until it fails. Eventually you'll be able to locate the problem app and exclude it from your backup.

I have several libraries in Aperture, (9 libraries, 45,000 pictures .. !!) there a way to unite them all in a single library to retain all data?

If you have a drive that is large enough, you can open one library and import the other aperture libraries on after the other into your main library.
Use the command "File > Import > Library".
When prompted, if you want to "Add" or to "merge", select "Merge". This way, Aperture will try to avoid to import duplicates.
Merging can take a long time and needs plenty of free storage, sometimes more than the combined sizes of the libraries to be merged. The additional storage will be released,when the merge is done.

On my iPhone 4s, I sent a picture via email and asked to size it down. However, it seems now that the pic stored on my iphone is now forever the smaller size which is not suitable for printing. Is there any way to get the larger size back?

sure pretty simple. make a backup of your current settings

then restore device from old backup you need pics off of
then import pics to computer

you may need to save pics to camera roll first
then restore the new backup and sync pics back to phone via itunes

I cleaned my wireless keyboard with a cloth that had a few sprays of windex on it, wiping back and forth and up and down on the keys. Now, various keys are not working. Is there a way to "reset" the keyboard to restore the keys?

I cleaned my wireless keyboard with a cloth that had a few sprays of windex on it, wiping back and forth and up and down on the keys. Now, various keys are not working. Is there a way to "reset" the keyboard to restore the keys?

Thanks for replying (thorvsphoenix)
The windex was sprayed on the cloth, not the keyboard. And only one or two pumps on a hand towel. No liquid seeped between the keys the towel was barely damp. You are saying the ammonia gas created the problem?
I think It was more an issue of multiple keys being depressed at the same time that screwed up the configuration. That is why I need to "reboot" the keyboard.

When changing apps to full screen, is there a way to make them appear to the left of pre-existing desktops/apps in mission control?

I'm not sure when this changed (it was a while ago, possibly with OS X Mountain Lion, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't always this way?) but full-screening apps used to add them to the left of everything else. Now, things are added to the right side of the thumbnail strip, which is extremely inconvenient for me.
Is there any way to change it back?

Strange, it's working fine now. Nevermind.

My iTunes library has too much on it. is there a way to export it to an external hard drive and play movies from there?

I have nearly filled up my hard drive with movies on itunes. i know i can export everything to an external hard drive, but is there a way to export only the movies, delete those from my hard drive, and then play the movies with the external hard drive connected?

If they don't contain DRM, use a program such as Switch. If they do, you can't.

Is there a way to run Vista on an External Hard Drive?

Am a Mac Newbie with some PC application baggage...
It was my understanding that "Macs" could boot from either internal and external hard drives. I thought I could (somehow) install Vista on a partition on an external hard drive and simply connect it to my Mac Book Pro when I wanted to boot from it.
My objective is to minimize (or avoid) the impact of a PC environment installed my MBP, yet still allow periodic "native" or virtual access to a PC environment as needed. And, perhaps, to use any remaining space on the external hard drive for backup storage...
Am not seeing any references to this type of setup...is any part of this possible?
If I understand the threads correctly, Boot Camp only installs Vista to the internal hard drive. And while Microsoft limits the virtual use of Vista to their Business and Ultimate editions, will virtual manager programs such as Fusion or Parallels allow me to put the PC environment on an external hard drive to plug and play as needed?
I thought native would be simpler...but maybe the route to go may be virtual management to get Windows on an external hard drive?
Thanks.

Got resolved in the Boot Camp Forum ny Stefan...evidently Microsoft has restricted Windows (XP and Vista) to not be able to be booted from external HDs.
Stefan pointed out that here is however, a way to achieve this my objective however, see here: http://tubeshards.wordpress.com/2006/12/05/install-windows-to-a-macintosh-usb-dr ive/
Although this is for XP, Stefan thinks it should also work for Vista.
Parallels and/or Fusion will allow me to put the Windows Vista VM nearly anywhere, which includes external HDs.
The external HD has to be formated as HFS+ (the OSX file system) but it is possible to partition the external HD to two or more partitions and use these partitions for backup etc.

I have 15,686 photos on iPhoto 11 and am now, when uploading latest photos, getting a message saying that my startup disk is full. Is there any way of increasing the capacity of the start up disk?

I have 15,686 photos on iPhoto 11. As I've been uploading the latest photos in the last two days I've been getting a message stating that my start-up disk is nearly full. I had no idea there was a limit. Is there any way of increasing its capacity? I have been shooting in Raw of late and I know it takes up a lot of space but I have heard of other people who have over 20,000 photos on their computers, so what is going on here??

Two possibiilities here:
1. Your start up disk is nearly full
Or
2. You have minor damage to the iPhoto Library and it's giving you a bogus message.
But here's the thing: A full start up disk is a very serious issue and needs to be dealt with fast.
So, how big is your Hard Disk? How much free space on it?
Regards

Is there a way to move smart previews to different hard drive and point lightroom to them

I want to use lightroom on a surface pro. My Lightroom catalogue will be on a 64gb thumbdrive so I can use it between my stationary computer and the portable one. Since my Smart Preview folder is much larger than 64gb, can I put it on the internal hard drive in the surface keep my catalogue on the thumbdrive and point lightroom to the smart preview folder?

No, my smart preview catalogue is 160gb and I don't want to carry around an external hard drive, using the catalgue on a low profile thumbdrive solves the issue of using two computers, If I can figure out away to point the program to the smart previews, then I would be in business, since the images would synch up when I get home again.

FCPX: When applying the keyer to green screen, is there a way to change the resulting color from black to another color (cream, blue, etc)?

Currently working on a project where I shot various video tributes in front of a green screen. When using the keyer in FCPX, the resulting image is represented by a black background instead of a green one. I'd like to change that color to blue, tan or something else so that when I apply a picture in a portion of the background, the remaining background looks fine. More specifically, I plan to put images over the right shoulder of each person in the video. The image will only take up about 1/4 of the background and the rest of it currently just looks like a black screen. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Tom now I have another follow-up. So i have the original green screen with the keyer applied which, emptied the background. Now I've applied a color generator below that in the timeline and it generates a color. How do I now go back and add the photo in the upper right corner of the clip? Ultimatly the goal is to have the subject, with the color backdrop and a photo above their right shoulder.

HT4314 I have two games Tribez and Tribez and Castles on my iPad. I have to send my iPad Air back for repair to crack glass. Is there any way to save the games., for when I have to restore back up

I have two games tribez and tribez and Castle. As my new iPad air has a cracked screen I have to send it back for repair. I have to do a reset and restore backup when I get it back. Is there any way to back up above games. On tribez I have reached level 99 and will be annoying to starts again.

Do you have a computer with iTunes on it that you have associated the iPad with?
If the answer is yes, simply set iTunes up to back up the device locally, fully sync the apps, photos, movies, etc. A copy of everything, including the config of the device and all your settings (scores) will be made on the computer's drive. This even includes a backup copy of all the apps. When you get the replacement device (probably a refurbished blank unit), a Restore from that backup will totally reconstruct what you have today.
If the answer is no, you will have quite a bit more work to do in order to get back to the original state that the iGadget is currently in (minus the crack).

I deleted my iPhoto Application from my MacBook Air by mistake. But I have backup on my TimeMachine. How does it work if I wanna get it back from Time Machine? Is it possible? Thanks.

Do you still have iPhoto in your Trash? Thenopen the Trash, select "iPhoto", ctrl-click, and select "Put Back".
If iPhoto came preinstalled on your mac, or you bought it from the AppStore, it would be easier, to download it again from the AppStore. If you open the AppStore and sign in with your AppleID, click the "Purchased" tab, then you should see iPhoto waiting for you, ready to download. Click the "Install" button.
To restore from TimeMachine, select your Applications folder in the Finder.
Enter Time Machine and go back in time, to the time before you deleted your iPhoto. select iPhoto and press the restore button.
Good Luck
