IChat 4.0 erase/remove user background

With Leopard it is easy to create funny backround for iChat in addition to the ones that preexist (tour eiffel, fishes, beach or the waterfalls) but does anybody knows how to remove/erase a picture that has been dragged and dropped into a user background? I did not manage to do that...
Thanks in anticipation,
best

Thanks a lot for you answer. I did actually a similar thing. I was not able to retrieve the picture file but found the file containing the .mov files used as background in iChat (e.g. rollercoaster.mov)...these files are in System/library/compositions...and replace my picture by a file comprised in that folder: user background.qtz
Maybe a blank picture would be a better idea.

  • How do you remove the background of a presentation?

    I am a student and all my PowerPoint lectures are sent to me before they begin.  I take those lectures put them into keynote then use "Open in another app" to open as a PDF in notability. 
    Notability allows me to record the audio of the lecture and take notes directly on the slides.  However, some teachers use dark or colourful backgrounds that make annotating them a bit frustrating.  I want to remove the backgrounds in the same way I could if I selected print "With Backgrounds: off"
    Just to be clear I do not want a hard copy of the presentation.  I want to have a digital version without the background that looks similar to the hard copy version keynote makes when you select print "With Backgrounds: off"
    Thanks

  • Removing & Replacing Background in JPEG.

    I am a newbie & relatively clueless on using Photoshop Elements 8 with Windows 7.  I don't understand the technical terms and am a hands-on learner.  I need to remove the backgrounds on some photos and replace it with a neutral background that isn't flat.  I want the main image to appear on a single color fabric type background to give the image depth.  I have tried the eraser tool but it will not work at all.  I want a click & remove way if possible.

    I used the Quick selection tool in PSEv.8 to select the cake and the pedestal, but the other selection tools may be used as well. You should see "marching ants" around the selection
    Next I went to Layer>new>layer via copy. This places the selection on its own layer
    I opened a new, blank layer underneath the layer created in step #2
    I filled this layer with a pattern (Edit>fill layer>pattern -----used wood pattern, several to select from among those in the default library)
    Hope that this is what you are after. One can make or copy other backgrounds, of course. The cake looks great, would love to have a piece!!

  • Erase a White Background on a Photo

    I need to erase a white background on a photo of a wine bottle so a web host can use the bottle image without the white background but when I save the image with the background removed, it is still there when I open the saved jpeg image.

    JPEGs don't support alpha-transparency.
    If your image is a photo, Save for Web as PNG-24 with transparency.
    If your image is a drawing, Save for Web as GIF with transparency.

  • Remove users from Shared Services/ EPM

    Gurus
    I have some users who have gone to different department and some who are no more with the companies. I was just wondering if there is a script I can run in the EPM Environment/ Shared Services to remove users and the provisioning in bulk.
    Thank you for your response.

    Hi John,
    I got it.
    What I did was that I exported the GROUPS under APPLICATION GROUP -> FOUNDATION > SHARED SERVICES -> NATIVE DIRECTORY -> GROUP. Created a CSV file and deleted the user and then imported back again.
    This is how it works right?
    ALSO, can I totally erase the user. The above process deleted user from group. But if I need to delete the user overall from everywhere in the EPM app, is there a way to do so?
    OR do I need to ask the server team to remove the user from MSAD.
    Thanks

  • Should I remove the background  of the photo ?

    Should I remove the background of the photo with this app?

    Yes, you can remove a background from an image with PS Touch. There are at least a couple of ways to do this. The simplest is to use the Eraser Tool; another way is to select the contents of the background and use the clear command.

  • Unable to add/remove users in Mountain Lion Server (Options are greyed out)

    For some reason, im unable to add/remove users in Mountain Lion server. The + and - are greyed out. It seems like something is wrong with the permissons because it looks like it cant write the the Ldav3 file (although that may be speculation). Does anyone have any advice for me? I URGENTLY need to add users.
    Maybe theres a way to restore default permssions for the boot drive (if that in fact is the issue). Hopefully there is a way that I can fix this while leaving all users, groups, their permissions and shares intact.

    Anything interesting and relevent in the server logs?
    Anything interesting in the server alerts?
    Since it's far and away the most common cause of problems with OS X Server and with distributed authentication (Open Directory is entirely based on network encryption and digital certificates and on responses from your local DNS server(s)), verify your local DNS configuration is working and requires no changes with the following Terminal.app (Applications > Utilities) harmless, diagnostic command:
    sudo changeip -checkhostname
    sudo requires an administrative password.  You might get a one-time warning about the sudo, and that can safely be ignored.  The command will display some details, and indicate whether the local configuration appears valid and no changes are required, or further diagnostics for (most) common errors that can arise.

  • How Do I: Remove White Background From a Non-Standard Sized PDF?

    Hello. Been a little while since I was last here.
    My issue is pretty simple. I am creating a PDF in Acrobat Pro X from MS-Word 2007. My document is landscaped half-page sized (US), so dimensions are: 8.5" wide, 5.5" high.
    When I attempt to print to PDF, the dimensions come out correctly, but there is a white background which is the size of a landscaped 8.5" x 11" sheet. Against this background, the 8.5" x 5.5" area is situated (nearly) centered vertically, but "right-justified" horizontally (see image). I need to find out how to fix this.
    Here's what I know:
    In MS Word:
    For "Page Setup" (under Page Layout tab):
    - under Margins tab, orientation is landscape;
    - under Paper tab, "Paper size" is "Custom size", with Width 8.5", Height 5.5" ;
    - No changes under Layout tab.
    For "Preferences" (under Acrobat tab)
    - under Settings tab, "Conversion Settings" are a custom setting ("Advanced Settings"), with "Default Settings" of Width 8.5 inches and Height 5.5 inches.
    When I Print > Adobe PDF:
    For "Properties" in Print window:
    - Under Layout tab, "Orientation" is "Landscape" ;
    - Under Paper/Quality tab, "Paper Source" is custom with Width 8.5" and Height 5.5".
    - Under Adobe PDF Settings tab, "Default Settings" is "High Quality Print (Custom)" with (Custom) being the settings I set under Acrobat > Preferences.
    - Also under Adobe PDF Settings tab, "Adobe PDF Page Size" is custom with Width 8.5" and Height 5.5".
    The result is pictured above.
    The last thing I did before posting this was run Help > Repair Acrobat Installation in Adobe X. Any suggestions? You can't do worse than I have.

  • Can we give UNIQUE ACCESS FOR THE SPECIFIC FILE IN THE LIBRARY in SP2013? How can we remove users from SHARED WITH link where files are shared with users?

    Hi,
    Any help on this?
    Thanks
    srabon

    Hi srabon,
    For giving unique access for a specific file in a library, you can go to the library, and select the file , and click FILES->Shared With->ADVANCED, under PERMISSION ribbon, click ‘Stop Inheriting Permissions’, then the file will have unique permissions.
    For removing the shared users for a file, firstly, like the above steps, select the file , and click FILES->Shared With->ADVANCED , make sure the file has unique access, then select the users that you want to remove, and click Remove User Persmissions
    under PERMISSIONS ribbon.
    I hope this helps.
    Thanks,

  • How can I remove the background sound from the headphone jack for my MacBoo

    for my MacBook Air problem adding music intensifier (Panasonic ST-HT1000) to give it an unpleasant sound background that sounds like a whiz, it's not so loud, but it is an unpleasant .. after a short time can get used to, but the fizz does not pass, however, believe that it is a big problem.
    Further I notice that when MacBookAir disconnected from the charger, it remains quieter sound.
    At first thought that the headphone jack (3.5 mm Headphone:
    Connection: 1/8-Inch Jack) or wiere have problem, but tried 3 different cables, but that does change enything, the problem remains.
    When I added iPhonu3GS playing - the background sound were not, then everything is OK!

  • ID 5.5 Interact. PDF, cannot remove white background for Multi-States and buttons.

    Hi
    I am working on an Interactive PDF Portfolio document. The problem I have is with Multi-State object feature with several buttons going to states that need to be exported as a SWF and imported back into InDesign 5.5. See, the background of my entire doc. is GREY, but when I import the SWF (as directed in Lynda.com videos correctly) and export the entire doc as Interactive PDF and view it in Adobe Acrobat Pro (version 10.1.1) is when all the trouble starts.
    When I try to get rid of the WHITE background around the Multi-State objects and the buttons for them (using Select Object Tool and then control+click on it to change the Properties to Transparent Background Appearance) it does not change, even when I go forward and backward to the page.
    Does the option of removing white background and making it transparent work only for Animation, but not Multi-State feature with buttons?
    Can anyone suggest any other tecnique to create a nice slide show that works in Interactive PDF in ID CS5.5? Please..
    Sincerely,
    in need of help,
    Eve

    I have 8 Multi-State objects in one stack on the left and the 8 buttons for each state in the stack on the right. The background of my document is dark grey. There is space inbetween Multi-State objects and the buttons that show the grey background. But after exporting as SWF the Multi-States together with the buttons and placing the SWF back in the PDF file, the space inbetween Multi-States and buttons that is supposed to show the grey background appears white. The problem is that I cannot even change this white background to transparent in Acrobat Pro, as well. I used to do that to animations and it worked, but not in this case.

  • Project Server 2013 - Remove user from resource pool via sync

    Hello everyone,
    has anyone managed to configure their Project Server 2013 box with a resource pool sync that will actually remove user from the resource pool (disable "User can be assigned as resource" or deactivate users) when the user is removed from the AD
    group(s)?
    Setup: Single box, SQL 2012 SP1, SharePoint/Project Server 2013 + PU March + CU April. 2 PWA instances, 1 in SharePoint and 1 in Project permission mode. Tried on 2 different machines (different setup, accounts, domains).
    Proceedings:
    Create AD user U, AD group G. Add U to G.
    Go to PWA, setup resource pool sync with G, sync.
    U is now in the resource pool, has no PWA permissions.
    Remove U from G. Resync resoure pool.
    U is still in resource pool, still a resource, still active, can still be assigned as resource.
    Adding U back to G an repeating the whole spiel with a resource pool and a PWA group sync of G will result in U being added and removed from the user list (as expected), and U being added but not removed from the resource pool.
    Having read
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg982985.aspx and
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg750243.aspx, there does not seem to be an omission on my part.
    The first article states:
    Note:
    The corresponding Project Server User Account is not deactivated based on this synchronization. If the same Active Directory user is configured to synchronize with a Project Server security group, the Project Server user account will be inactivated when
    that synchronization occurs. For more information, see
    Best practices to configure Active Directory groups for Enterprise Resource Pool synchronization in Project Server 2013.
    Unfortunately, this deactivation either does not seem to occur even with a PWA group sync or I misunderstood the article.
    So, did anyone manage to setup their resource pool sync in a way, that new resource will be added, but also be removed from the resource pool?
    Kind regards,
    Adrian

    Hi Adrian,
    you tried to sync the same AD group that you used for the resource pool sync also with a Project Server permission group?
    And on removal of the user of the AD group the project user/resource is not deactivated? Only removed from the group
    Regards
    Christoph
    Hi  Christoph,
    even though I might have tried that before, I tried it again in several constellations. It didn't change anything. The the user will be properly added to and removed from the PWA group whenever I remove them from the AD group, the use will also stay active
    (but cannot logon without permissions). However, the user will always remain in the resource pool, i.e. the "User can be assigned as resource." checkbox will remain unless it is cleared manually.
    Having re-read the technet articles, none of the scenarios actually seem to descibe or address the process that I require, or maybe I'm just misunderstanding. Let me just try to outline the core issue:
    Add user to AD group. Sync AD group with resource pool. User is now a PWA resource and PWA user.
    Remove user from AD group, but do not deactivate/delete user from AD.
    (Magic happens!)
    User cannot be assigned as ressource in PWA.
    So, is there anything to make this step 3 happen, or is it just not possible to sync users out of the resource pool anymore unless they are deleted/deactivated in AD?
    Kind regards,
    Adrian

  • How do I remove the background from a movie / sound problems

    Apologies, not really sure what I’m doing…
    How do I remove the background from a movie I made?
    I imported a QT movie at 368/272 pixels, but for whatever
    reason the HTML jumps up to 550/400.
    The movie is still 368/272 but there is a background border
    making it 550/400. Tried all sorts of settings in Publish but
    can’t get rid of it. Can I keep the movie (and controller)
    and not the background?
    I can get round it by changing the background colour, but
    surely there must be another way.
    Also: My QT file was fine but the .flv has a stuttering
    sound, any idea what could cause that?
    Thanks, and Thanks!

  • How do I erase a photo background?

    I am VERY new at Aperture and not at all savvy with any of the photo editing software. I'm reading the entire manual but am only on page 58 right now. In the meantime, I need to know how to "erase" the entire background so that only my subject remains. I've tried a couple things but have had no luck. Also, can you only crop in rectangular format? I thought I'd tried to lasso the subject and crop it out of the photo, but there doesn't seem to be a lasso, which would make this soooo much easier. Thank you.

    Hi Marilyn,
    Aperture is not what you think it is -- sorry.  It is a superb program, but that may be like being given perfume when you are hungry.
    Aperture does two things extremely well:
    - it allows photographers to organize for storage and access digital photograph negatives (files) and developed pictures.  It does this more efficiently, and with more powerful tools, than any program on the market.
    - it allows photographers to develop each digital negative (the data file from the camera) into the very best picture possible (the photographer, of course, determines this).
    If you need to manage a collection of digital photographs (files), or process (in another word: develop) picture files made by a digital camera in order to prepare them for publication or print, Aperture can be a stalwart helpmate, worth many times the cost of purchase.
    Aperture is not, however, a graphics program.  You do not use Aperture to create new graphics entities by combining pieces (whether they come from photographs, a text engine, drawing tools, etc.).  For that you need a graphics program (Photoshop is the most widely-known; look at GIMP (free) and Pixelmator (very popular)).  You can get Photoshop Elements for the Mac.  Graphics programs are designed from the ground up as compositors.  Aperture is not a compositor.
    Almost everyone who uses Aperture owns a graphics program as well (often several ).  Aperture provides a bridge to and from these programs, either by designating one as the "External Editor" or through the use of Plug-ins.  Nevertheless, more and more photographers are discovering that they can do well over 90% of their work without having to leave Aperture (or its close competitor, Adobe's Lightroom).
