Importing images from my personal image files

I don't like or use iPhoto (I use CS2), so when I put an image into keynote I have to make a table with a single cel, and choose from my hard drive image files and that works, but if I just ask to place an image using "media" the icon at the top of the page, it only gives me an iPhoto, iTunes or movies option option. How can I use it to give me my finder choices of image files.
Am I doing something wrong?

the Media palette only works for iPhoto. You can, however, simply drag images from the finder into Keynote. You can also use the Insert>Choose function from the menu bar at the top to choose an image, you don't need to make a table cell.

  • Cannot Import Image Files

    Hello, I'm having a issue that has suddenly and unexpectedly happened. After Effects will no longer allow me to import image files. I'm running a Mac with Yosemite. I've deleted preferences, I've restarted the computer. The only thing I haven't done is uninstalled and reinstalled.
    Any thoughts on this perplexing issue would be great. Using After Effects CC14

    That's bizarre. A reinstall used to be the first thing we'd do (back in ye olde AEv1.0 - v4.0 days). It's the last thing to try these days. But, AE is one of the more complex apps you'll ever have on your machine. I suppose it's possible still as brittle as the olden days.
    There are many dangerous methods Mac people try when trashing an application in Yosemite. Most of us have no clue where all of the fiddly bits are hidden. How did you accomplish your reinstall?
    I wonder if any of the AE wonks or Adobe folks have an opinion on when reinstalling is simply the easiest thing to do. Is reinstalling only a reasonable option for specific issues?

  • Difficulty importing image files

    I am trying to import image files (jpeg, psd etc. ) into Adobe Premiere but an error message keeps coming up, "The video bit depth of this file is unsupported". I know for certain that these type of files should be supported but I am still getting this message.

    It means what it says - your files are 16bit or 32bit or have unsuitable color profiles/ color modes. Convert them in PS.

  • Trouble importing contacts from a tab-delimited file into Contacts on 10.9.5

    I am having Trouble importing contacts from a tab-delimited file into Contacts on MacBook Pro, OS 10.9.5, Intel 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo., 400GB drive, 4GB memory DDR3
    So far I have:
    - Followed closely the help screen in Contacts app
    - Modified my source document meticulously - first in MS Word, then copied and tweaked in Apple's "Text Edit" app
    - The problem arises when I go to access the document for import.  Specifically, the target document, and all others in that file, are "greyed out" and thus can't be "opened" to facilitate the import process
    - Tried changing the extension of the document name to ".txt", ".rtf", and ".rtd". No change or improvement.
    - Searched Apple.com/help and found nothing relevant
    Can anyone offer some advice or tell me what I may be overlooking in this process?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated!

    Hi Rammohan,
    Thanks for the effort!
    But I don't need to use GUI upload because my functionality does not require to fetch data from presentation server.
    Moreover, the split command advised by you contains separate fields...f1, f2, f3... and I cannot use it because I have 164 fields.  I will have to split into 164 fields and assign the values back to 164 fields in the work area/header line.
    Moreover I have about 10 such work areas.  so the effort would be ten times the above effort! I want to avoid this! Please help!
    I would be very grateful if you could provide an alternative solution.
    Thanks once again,
    Best Regards,

  • How do I import playlists from an old library file?

    How do I import playlists from an old library file?
    I have a new computer and it has the music files completely reorganized from my last computer so I can't just drop in my old library files and have it work. Basically, I'm hoping there is some way to recover my old playlists from my old backed up copy of my music library without recreating my old jumbled file paths and just using my old library.

    Backup the current passwords with the Password Exporter extension.
    Then you can re-import them afterward.
    For restoring the names and passwords from Firefox 3.5.x and later you need the file signons.sqlite from the old profile.
    You also need the corresponding file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/key3.db key3.db] that stores the encryption key in addition to the signons file.
    Password Exporter: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/2848
    See also http://kb.mozillazine.org/Password_Manager#Backing_up_and_restoring_passwords
    For the bookmarks to need to do something similar unless you have a HTML backup of the old bookmarks because restoring a JSON backup replaces all current bookmarks.
    If you need to preserve current bookmarks then you can export your bookmarks in Firefox to an HTML file and import that file afterward.
    Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Export HTML & Import HTML > From File
    Another possibility is to use the clipboard to store selected bookmarks before restoring a JSON backup (e.g. All Bookmarks: Ctrl + A and Ctrl + C).
    You can paste the bookmarks from the clipboard back after you have restored a JSON backup.
    That will preserve all data including tags and annotations, but you should create an HTML backup to be safe.

  • How to import data from excel or csv files to Oracle table

    hello everybody,
    I am new here and new in Oracle. I would like to know the steps how to import data from excel or csv files to Oracle table.
    Let say I already have table inside the Oracle. Then my user give me the sets of data inside the Excel Worksheet.
    So, how can I import the excel data into Oracle table.
    Thank you in advance.
    cheers,
    shima

    Even easier. Download JDeveloper 11G from this site.
    Set up the database connection, right click on the table, select Import->Excel and specify your file to load it. On the import pop-up, you must view and update each tab indicating Columns, Data Types, and DML.
    Columns -- move the selected columns that you want to load to the box on the right
    Data Types -- select column name from second column to which the data for each column of the import file should load
    DML -- click this tab to generate the INSERT SQL
    Once done click 'Insert'

  • I can't import image files from my camera to Photoshop Elements

    My iMac recognizes my camera (a Canon Powershot S100 Digital Elph).  I know this because it automatically starts iPhoto and loads the images.  The problem is, I am sick and tired of iPhoto, and I want to use Photoshop Elements instead.   When I connect the camera to the iMac (via a USB port), I do NOT get a camera icon signifying a new volume or drive on my desktop.  So when I open Photoshop 4.0, I can't find the files to import.  I could allow the computer to import automatically into the iPhoto library, then manually drag the image files into a different directory for use by PSE, but that seems way too complicated.  Why should I have to do that?  Please help if you can.
    John

    I'm using OS X 10.4.11. 
    Maybe I didn't explain it very well.  Let me try again:
    I would like to be able to connect my camera to the USB port of the iMac, turn on the camera, and then view the images from the camera memory on the screen using Bridge (the subroutine for file management in Photoshop Elements).  I have not been able to do that. 
    Instead, my iMac immediately displays the camera images by opening iPhoto.  There is no option in iPhoto for importing the images to anything other than the iPhoto library.  So I have to go find them there, copy them into the directory were I want them, and then erase them from the library (which is a little tricky by itself).  Then I can manage them in Elements/Bridge.
    I thought when I bought Photoshop Elements that I would be able to open it and then tell it to import the images from my camera, into a directory of my choosing.  That would be less error-prone and a lot less work. 

  • Is there some way to import image files directly into an open document?

    Is there some way of importing a series of image files, say jpegs, directly into an open document, rather than having to open all the image files and having to drag and drop each individual one into the open document? Specifically, I'm a dentist and I often get digital xray images emailed to me from other offices. But they come as 16 or 18 individual image files and I have to put them into a virtual "xray mount", so I can view them all at once, rather than having to open all the images and toggle among them. So I open a blank document in PS (CS4), then I navigate to the folder containing all the image files I received, select all of them and open them all. Back in PS, I now have to select each image tab and drag the image into the blank "mount" and close the image. That new image then becomes its own layer in the "mount" document. But I have to repeat this 18 times for each patient! I was thinking if there was a way to open the new "mount" document then select all the image files and somehow "import" all the image files directly into document - essentially "automate" the process - that'd save me BOATLOADS of time and aggravation! Anyone out there have any suggestions? Thanks alot!! Dr. G.

    Thanks, Curt! When u say "animate" do u mean File | Automate...? Inside Automate, I can't find "Make Frames from Layers"...if you do mean "Animate" I can't find that menu. Zeno replied with a BRILLIANT clarification:
    <<Yes, but after you've got all your images as layers in a new document you can simply Select->All Layers and then drag them all to your document in one fell swoop.>>
    I tried that and it works like a charm! I select all 20 layers in the new document that "stacking" creates and just drag them all onto the virtual "mount" document. That's it! Then I just move each of these layers around as I would otherwise...it's just 1 click and 1 drag/drop. Unless someone comes up with a way to actually "import" all the images directly into the "mount" document, I think this appears to be the most efficient route to follow.
    I really appreciate your guys' assistance! It's so great that you guys monitor the forum and help us out with our Photoshop problems! What an awesome program it is, right?
    Thx again!

    Actually, your code is working fine, as there are no returned errors, asserts or crashes.
    The reason you are just seeing a gray box, is that the display performance is set to the lowest level in InDesign Server for performance reasons.
    Hint: Open the document in "desktop" InDesign, right click on the image, and look at the Display Performance settings for the image.
    See
    Ken Sadahiro, "[CS2 Server] Controlling display performance, how?" #1, 23 Feb 2006 8:01 am
    You can of course programmatically change it to the normal or high res settings from within your plug-in, but it might slow down the performance of InDesign Server a bit.
    One additional comment:
    In your code where you do this:
    importFileCmdData->Set(db, sysFile, kMinimalUI);
    I would do this, just to be safe:
    if (LocaleSetting::GetLocale().IsProductFS(kInDesignServerProductFS )) { importFileCmdData->Set(db, sysFile, kSuppressUI); } else { importFileCmdData->Set(db, sysFile, kMinimalUI); }

  • Using Power Query to import image files for Power View

    I am trying to use Power Query to import image data from a SQL Azure database for use in Power View.  I've selected both the source image table and the ?images table in the workbook query.  The files seem to load as binary data in the Power
    Query editor but when loaded to the data model with Power Pivot, the field becomes "text" type rather than binary.  Does anyone know the procedure to use  PowerQuery to load image files into PowerPivot?

    Hi,
    We currently do not support loading binary data from Power Query into the Power Pivot data model. This is something we'd like to address soon. For now, you will need to use the Power Pivot import capabilities if you want to achieve this.
    Sorry about the inconvenience - we will try to enable this feature over the coming months.

  • Adobe LR3 will not import image files.  Running on Mac OS 10.6.4

    When I try to import images into LR3 I get the errors show on attached screenshots.  Anyone know how to fix this?

    I'm having the same problem and I'm running LR3 on Mac OS 10.6.4 as well.
    I put my SD card into my iMac's SD card slot, and tried to import into LR3, but got an error that all of my new files were not imported because they "...could not be read (17)".  They can be read just fine by GraphicConverter.  I shoot RAW+JPG and LR3 will not import either version (e.g., if I remove the .CR2 files from the SD card, LR3 won't read the .jpgs either).  I also put the SD card into a reader (instead of into the iMac's SD card slot) and that didn't work.
    I copied the RAWs to the Desktop and tried to import from there, but in that case I get a message that the import operations were not performed because "a file could not be copied to the requested location (34)".
    I imported images from this SD card on the 5th, and I haven't formatted it since then.  The only thing that's changed that I know of is the Mac OS update, but I would expect that if that were the problem, I wouldn't be able to read these files anywhere (i.e., GraphicConverter).
    Any suggestions?
    Update:  I've now tried another SD card, and a CF card, and LR3 will not import any of the files on them - I get the same "...could not be read (17)" error.  I have repaired disk permissions, and I've trashed the Lightroom 3 preferences.
    Update #2:  I've deleted and re-installed Lightroom 3, and I still cannot import any new images.  Lightroom 2 imports just fine.  This is becoming infuriating.
    Anyone have any suggestions yet?

  • How to import image file of OS

    I was give an .img file of a server......I didn't receive a vm.vfg file at all, I the image was just simply copied from the running_pool on the oracle vm server after it was shut down.  Now...can I import this image into another oracle vm server using vm manager or some commands on the oracle vm server itself?  I was also sent the following information...
    more dns
    # Automatically generated xen config file
    name = "dns"
    memory = "256"
    disk = [ 'file:/OVS/running_pool/dns.img,xvda,w', ]
    vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:2a:4d:73, bridge=xenbr0', ]
    vfb = ["type=vnc,vncunused=1"]
    uuid = "4f91b207-a6a5-5bec-9ada-d60cc9254ce5"
    bootloader="/usr/bin/pygrub"
    vcpus=1
    on_reboot   = 'restart'
    on_crash    = 'restart'
    This was generated on the original oracle vm server....should I edit that to reflect the uuid of the new oracle vm server and can I create my own vm.cfg file?  The server where this image come from does not have oracle vm manager controlling it, the admin has simply been using the oracle vm server interface itself to mount the domains..is there a way to generate a template from just the oracle vm server and not using the manager?

    I would change the name if the image file to something meaningful and simply copy the image file to the storage repository /OVS/Repositories/[YOUR Repo]/VirtualDisks and then simply rescan the storage repo. That should "import" the new image to your repo and make it available for use.
    The information shown about the VM indicates that the boot loader is pygrub - that would make this guest a PVM one, so you could simply create a new PVM in OVMM and choose the just imported vdisk as its first disk. The info for this guest also suggests that it's MAC-Address is 00:16:3e:2a:4d:73, so you will need to adjust the settings inside the guest once it is running on you new OVMs.

  • Import data from a Fixed Length File into Oracle database

    Hi,
    I would like to import data from a Fixed Length text file into a table using HTML DB application.
    As of now, i have a .sql file(that uses external table) to import the data into Oracle tables
    I would like to integrate this in my HTML DB application so that the user can directly import the data into the table.
    Sample data
    XXXYYYYZZZZZ
    Data should be read to table that has
    Col1 Col2 Col3
    XXX YYYY ZZZZZ

    Hi,
    I would like to import data from a Fixed Length text
    file into a table using HTML DB application.AFAIK, fixed length imports are not something you can do directly with the HTML DB tools or available APIs.
    As of now, i have a .sql file(that uses external
    table) to import the data into Oracle tables
    I would like to integrate this in my HTML DB
    application so that the user can directly import the
    data into the table.Any fixed-length data needs to have a specification associated with it that indicates which character position begins a new column and what each column represents. Some also include what datatype should be used for each of those.
    If you really want to do this I would suggest that you create a table that you can store the file spec in. It would probably have columns for field name, start position, length or end position, datatype and any alias/column name you might want to apply. You would then use this table in a PL/SQL procedure (probably a package with the main processing procedure and various supporting procedures/functions) to read the file into memory, apply the file spec to each line and then do inserts into your table.
    Obviously, this is just a concept or strategy. Implementing it will depend on your PL/SQL skills and determination. If you want to pursue this strategy I'm sure you can find some jump-starts by doing a search on the PL/SQL forum.
    This may not sound like an answer - but the answer is you need to code it to fit your requirements. Hope that helps.

  • Importing data from a data-backup file

    Hi,
    my application runs external process that imports (should import) data from a backup file created using the exp command. Export file is created by gDBUser from global database (GDB) and should be imported by lDBUser to local database (LDB).
    process1.StartInfo.FileName = "imp.exe";
    process1.StartInfo.Arguments = String.Format(" userid=\\\"{0}/{1}@{2} as SYSDBA\\\" fromuser={3} touser={4} tables=({5})", dbUserName, dbUserPass, serviceName, fromDBUser, toDBUser, tableNames);
    process1.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
    process1.Start();
    Everything works fine as long as the user running my application is member of the DBA system (Windows) group. Unfortunately, in most cases the user does not belong to that group and import fails with the following error message:
    IMP-00058: ORACLE error 1031 encountered
    ORA-01031: insufficient privilegesUsername:
    IMP-00000: Import terminated unsuccessfully
    Users should not be members of the DBA group in order not to be able to modify the data otherways then by using the app. They don't even know the dbUserName nor dbUserPass.
    Is there a way to be able to perform such import without running it as member of DBA group?
    I'll appreciate your help.
    Best regards
    Rob

    Hi Mark,
    No, it isn't necessary to connect as sysdba.
    In the meantime I found the solution.
    My dbUser had no CREATE TABLE privilege. As soon as I granted it and removed "AS SYSDBA" from the userid parameter everything started to work fine.
    Thanks
