In 'Desktop' the display options for the chosen image have vanished.

I have an iMac with Snow Leopard.
Using the option 'Desktop' in 'Desktop and Screen Saver', on choosing an image, under the name ofm the image chosen, there is usually a list of options for how the image is displayed :-
Tile
Fuil screen
Fit to screen
These are no longer displayed. Where is the option for switching the list back on?
I have tried restarting.
Thanks in advance
David

Disconnect all devices from the computer then do the following:
Boot up from your Snow Leopard Install DVD while holding down the "c" key.
Select the language you wish to use, and then choose "Disk Utility" from the menu bar.
Your HD should appear in a panel on the left hand side of the window which opens. Select it and then click on the "repair disk" button in the right hand section of the window.
Once this process has been completed restart your computer and repair permissions directly from Disk Utility.
If Disk Utility is unable to complete the repair, you will need to use a stronger 3rd party utility like DiskWarrior, Techtool PRO (not Deluxe) or Drive Genius.
Please post back the results.

How to add extra options for style of images. iPad version has far more options than Mac version

How to add extra options for style of images in pages. iPad version has far more options than Mac version

Thank you, you made me go look again and I realised the ones I use on the iPad are under Borders not style and they are on Mac also. I feel a bit silly but I wouldn't have got there without your prompting. Do you mean by "create your own" using the borders and then saving as a style or can you create something that is not in either?
Thanks again

The thumbnail images have disappeared from one of my sequences

I have 3 sequences open in the timeline and the thumbnail images have disappeared from the clips in one of them. It's very frustrating to work without them, how do I get them back?

Thanks so much! That actually wasn't it though... The thumbnail display was already set to 'name plus thumbnail' but 'track size' was set to 'custom'. Once I changed 'track size' to 'small' (which is what my other sequences which were displaying thumbnails were set to) the thumbnails reappeared. Yipee!!!!

Is there a key on the MacBook Pro to toggle display options for a projector

I have had some difficulty getting my InFocus projector to consistently work correctly with my MacBook Pro. Is there a key on the MacBook Pro that toggles the options for projector display? There was one on my last MacBook and my previous PowerBook.
Thanks -
Dudley Warner

No, there is no longer a key to control external display modes (it's F7 on my 1st gen MBP, but the option was removed along with the embedded numeric keypad in the Early 2008 models). There's not a substitute keyboard shortcut (with the exception of installing a macro player like Keyboard Maestro). Your main option is System Preferences > Displays (as stated, ticking the box to show Displays in the menu bar provides a helpful shortcut).

Is there a way you can select a display option for Safari pages on the OS5?

The tabbed version of Safari for the ipad2 is nice but the old one is better. Is there a way we can select a display option that lets a user toggle between the two?

No, Safari on the iPad in iOS 5 uses tabbed browsing. You can try leaving feedback for Apple : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

How do I use my iPad with Retina Display model MD514LL/A with apple tv? I see no option for airplay and I have the latest update.

I am having trouble mirroring my ipad with my new apple tv. I don't see any options for airplay. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Is your apple tv also up to date?
Are they both on the wireless network, or is the apple tv using an ethernet cable?
Reboot your wireless router, your apple tv, and your ipad, in that order.

Multi display options for MBP using USB - Diamond BVU195 vs Sewell Minideck

I have narrowed my search for a multidisplay option for my MBP down to 2 devices;
Diamond BVU195
http://www.diamondmm.com/BVU195.php
http://www.amazon.com/Diamond-BVU195-Display-Adapter-included/dp/B002GHBW4S
and
Sewell Mindeck
http://sewelldirect.com/Sewell-Minideck-USB-to-DVI-Display-Adapter.asp
Has anyone had a chance to check out both of these?
There is no easy comparison, any opinions? thanks!

The obvious drawback of USB video adapters like these is that they tie up USB ports you may need for other purposes. If you intend to connect one or more such adapters to a USB hub instead of directly to the computer, be sure to use a hub that has its own AC power supply, and check with the adapter's manufacturer to make sure it has been tested with hubs and found to work that way.
The less obvious disadvantage of USB video adapters is slowness. If you don't use your multiple displays for gaming or other high-speed, demanding video applications, you may not be disappointed. If you do, you probably will be.

Display Option For Previous 15" Unibody??

To start, I am not asking for advice on glossy vs matte. However, I prefer matte and would like to purchase the new 15" unibody MBP. I can decide to wait it out and see if Apple announces a matte option for the 15" MBP within the next few months or bite the bullet and get the glossy display.
*I could not find this information but did the previous 15" MBP Unibody have an option for matte finish (model previous to the WWDC update)?*
My thinking is that if there was an option, there is a chance they will introduce a matte option with the new 15" MBP unibody. If they did not have an option, I do not see them introducing a matte finish anytime in the near future.
Thanks

The previous unibody 15" MacBook Pro, launched in October 2008, didn't have a matte option. It had a glossy glass screen.
The new 15" MacBook Pros, launched in June 2009, still don't have a matte screen option.

How do I display thumbnails for subfolders with images in Finder?

Hello. I've settled in quite nicely with OS X but I find there's one thing I couldn't replace with a better alternative from XP and I've looked extensively for a solution but with no luck, so I figured I'd ask.
It's best described with a picture (http://i38.tinypic.com/2j2i1rr.png). All those folders have images in them (at their root, not in subfolders). Instead of the generic folder icon, I'd like a thumbnail of the images in the folder (like this: http://imgsrv.worldstart.com/ct-images/folder-pic-blank1.jpg). The closest I've gotten to this is ticking "Show icon preview" in Finder's view options menu, but this only displays the thumbnails when I actually open the folder which is a bit of a problem when you have 200+ folders and you're looking for a specific one. The only thing remotely like this that I've found is FileBrowse (http://www.filebrowse.com/index.html) but it's too fat and slow to be of much use.
Thanks for any help you might be able to provide.

baltwo: Thanks for the tip, I didn't know how easy it was to set up custom icons in OS X. In this case it's a difficult solution because it will have to be done by hand for every single folder, which is a problem if I'm going to have these in two places. I'm new to Automator but there doesn't seem to be a way to have it; 1) Select all the folders in a directory. 2) Copy the first image in each folder to the clipboard and have it use that image as each folder's icon.
Barney-15E: I know it sounds moronic, but yes. I've tried iPhoto but it's not a very good solution in this case. My folder structure is like this:
Root -> 282 image folders with 10 to 60 pictures in each.
All I really need is the ability to see at a glance what each image folder has without opening each individual folder. The folders are numbered sequentially (1-282 in this case) rather than by proper names, so this is the most efficient way.

Options for full screen images

Hello!
I'm new. So far really like Muse. I'm creating a website where the single image fills the screen. Realizing different people have different resolution screens. How is the best way to create a layout in Muse (widget) Which would allow the image file to scalle to fit what ever size the browser is?
So far I placed an image in the master gage, and depending on browser, it is to large or not centered. (1920x1080)
I want to try the new TOOLTIP Slideshow idea. Will that scale?
Thanks
Alex
PS would this have to do with pining my png elements?

With nothing selected click on "Browser Fill" in the Control Strip. Then click on the folder icon in the panel that drops down and select your image. Choose the Scale to Fill option and I think you'll have the effect you're looking for.
Note you'll want to resize the image before importing. Muse doesn't currently resize a browser fill background image. I recommend an image that's no more than 2048 in either dimension, and 1920 is probably better. I'd also choose the "Low" JPEG quality setting in Photoshop's Save for Web feature. That should equate to an image that's 100k, or less.
There are a lot of "how to" videos and tutorials at muse.adobe.com that you'll probably find helpful. Muse is similar to InDesign and Illustrator in many ways, but some of the nuances of working with web content are different (I.e. Background images/image fills).

Show cropped size while cropping, support detection of min. crop for a chosen image size.

Now that Lightroom gets really stable and powerful, maybe we have a better chance to get some of the "smaller issues" resolved as well?
One feature which would interest me would be indication of the cropped size while performing the cropping. Lightroom could also show always the percentage of lost or ignored pixels by the crop as a rough measure of resulting "image resolution."
With posting in web in mind, I found on many occasions that I would like to have one more feature: I would like to set for the crop the
"desired image size" as I chose for the posting, say 1200x800 pixels, and not allow the crop to select a smaller area.
Now its up to "try and error" in such cases. Once the crop is off, Lightroom shows the cropped area if selected so, and so user can see if the crop still encompasses at least the desired image size.

At Dan and others
There is a very simple reason that has been stated several times. You are not editing photos, you are making references to images through a database - its all ones and zeros with colours and hues. It is at the export stage you tell lightroom what crop you want. There is no point telling lightroom to crop 800 by 600 in the develop module (though I do see the reason for the request).
If you did specify 800 by 600, the crop would be a small proportion of a 4000 by 3000 pixel chip image ,so you would only get a tiny portion of the picture, then what?
How do you get more of the picture in the crop dimensions?
You scale it up by dragging the crop box having the constraints in the ratio of 800 by 600..... ( back to the original way LR uses....)
Wanting emperical 800 by 600 or 1200 by 800 then scaling up is 2 step process where Adobe sussed that one in the beta by saying u"se aspect rations and then use the all (powerful but ugly) export dialog."
Its has actually been thought out plenty more so "human factors mis-engineering that would make microsoft proud" kind of noise is probably incorrect.
There are some clever and overworked people battling with Lightroom . Bibble 5 was promised 6 momths ago..... still waiting for their 88% improvement in speed.......... but LR2.3 is not there yet
If you want a crop of certain "dimensions" enter them into the x and y spaces in the crop options and you will have 800 by 600 or 1200 by 800.
Then simply set up a batch export using the options long edge... compresssion %.... All these NEED to be entered for exporting at least once - even if you go Export as Previous.
that is my intrepretation of why Adobe decided not to give absolute crops, I'm sure if Adobe did comment on these forums a little more, they would explain more succintly, eloquently but a very similar explanation as mine is above.

Appstore displays updates for 2 applications I have never heard of. How can I get rid of them ?

Hello,
In AppStore (Lion and now Mountain Lion) I see two applications that I have never heard of. When I try to push the update button, I'm prompted to enter the password for two accounts I have never heard of. I tried re-indexing all the disk space available with locate.updatedb and tried to find any reference about any of those two apps without luck.
Please, can anyone tell me what can I do so I don't see them as "requiring update". Or see them at all for that matter ?
Here are some explenatory screenshots to help make my point.

This type of behaviour can be caused by malware. Try running several malware scanners. It is best to run several as each will pick up things that the others miss. Some scanners you can try are:
* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php Malwarebytes]
* [http://www.superantispyware.com/ SUPERAntiSpyware]
* [http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php Ad-Aware]
* [http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/defender/default.mspx Windows Defender]
You may have the "Google re-direct virus", for details on that see http://deletemalware.blogspot.com/2010/02/remove-google-redirect-virus.html
If the above malware scanners do not find any malware or can not clear it, you should consider posting in one of these forums for specialized malware removal help:
