Trying to import my small photo collection using elements Organizer (10.0 20110831.m.17215) on a Windows 7 64 bit desktop with 8GB ram, ample free space on HDD and a Quad-core intel cpu (Q6600) .
Elements Organizer 10.0.0.0
Core Version: 10.0 (20110831.m.17215) Language Version: 10.0 (20110831.m.17215)
System:
Operating System Name: Windows 7 (6.1 Service Pack 1)

Apple QuickTime Version: 7.71
Adobe Reader Version: 10.1
I have my photos organized in dated folders, however this import process chokes and dies while accessing some videos (and associated files) generated using Canon T2i. This happened 8 times in a row and there seems no way around it since I cann't import just pictures. It insisting on importing all contents of folder. There are hundreds of folders so it is not practical to open each folder and import photos excluding videos manually. If that is the case, I'll gladly look for a differtent product (even Picasa can do that better).
So, here is the problem, how to make Elements organizer import all photos, either by selecting only jpeg files, or successfully importing all files (or ignoring any errors without crashing) ?
This is what i see in Windows logs,
Faulting application name: PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe, version: 10.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x4e5e9821

Obviously I cannot make anything out of this, buy if someone does, I am all ears ... many thanks in advance for help.

Ken,
I did not know about turning off filters, after doing that, import was successful (and it was a bit fast too). Thank you for your help.

Thumbnail in browser doesnot match the pic in the view for many of my photo

I have noticed today after having loaded my library and several project with photo's 2500 or so that several thumbnails when high lighted actual bring up a differnet image. ( i.e. the thumbnail image does not match the image in the work screen area.) what is happening? i take it is a file name problem but i cannot get the correct thumbnail to match work area and the thumbnail in browser will not appear in work area to work on.

I have had the same problem with A 1.5.3 and OS X 10.4.9 - the problem started when I moved some pictures from one project to another, then it suddenly switched thumbs on a series of pictures. They simply showed each others thumbs while the image was the opposite. I "fixed" it by making adjustments to each image and then undo. Then the thumbs were updated correctly. This has to be a bug in Aperture.

Since the update, my browser is reacting much slower. I can no longer click the "+" button to open a new tab. What may I be able to do to remedy these issues?

In addition to what I included in my "question," the refresh button is also not working.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4+ you can use one of these to start in [[Safe mode]]:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

What do I need to do to display a MS Word, Excel or PDF document in browser

Hi, Right now I have photos loaded and displayed in my HTML document in the browser next to a report...
What do I need to do to display a MS Word, Excel or PDF document in a browser?
I use the following procedure to load the content to the region of my HTML .
This gives an EDIT link to the photo...
select
'[img src="#OWNER#.display_thumb?p_file_id=' || nvl(file_catalog_id,0) || '" /]' "File"
from "FILE_CATALOG"
where "FILE_CATALOG_ID" = :P9_FILE_CATALOG_ID
This is the procedure to load the content to the region of my HTML .
create or replace PROCEDURE "DISPLAY_THUMB" (p_photo_id in number)
as
l_mime varchar2(255);
l_length number;
l_file_name varchar2(2000);
lob_loc BLOB;
begin
select mime_type, thumbnail, photo_name, dbms_lob.getlength(thumbnail)
into l_mime, lob_loc, l_file_name, l_length
from photo_catalog where photo_catalog_id = p_photo_id;
-- Set up HTTP header
-- Use an NVL around the mime type and if it is a null, set it to
-- application/octect - which may launch a download window from windows
owa_util.mime_header(nvl(l_mime,'application/octet'), FALSE );
-- Set the size so the browser knows how much to download
htp.p('Content-length: ' || l_length);
-- The filename will be used by the browser if the users does a "Save as"
htp.p('Content-Disposition: filename="' || l_file_name || '"');
-- Close the headers
owa_util.http_header_close;
-- Download the BLOB
wpg_docload.download_file( Lob_loc );
end;

Why does every browser run slow when I am doing something moderately hardware intensive in the background?

I have looked but I don't even really know what to call this. But I can reproduce it everytime without fail and I don't understand.
Steps to Reporduce
Load up Safari (or chrome, whatever it doesn't matter, those two browsers have the excat same problem)
Do some browsing. Not much just check your email or something (doesn't matter what you do)
Run a application that uses some CPU. (Go play a game, or run handbreak, open parallells, anything that causes a bit of load)
Go back to the browser and try to browse. Everything is dog slow and unsuable.
Exit the application (just showing that the app was running while slow browsing)
Browse sites at normal speed again
Intresting facts
I have been dealing with this for a while. So I have discovered a few things before posting here
There is plenty of free RAM both Inactive and Unused in Activity monitor is over 1G (I have 8G total)
There is plenty of CPU "room". Nither core is anywhere near 100%
The goal is under moderate load, so overloading the computer and trying is not what is happening.
nice-ing proccesses has no effect
I notice it most when running games, but it happens at other times too, games are just one of the few things that put any load on this mac.
Other programs work fine. I have never noticed anyother program running slow ever when this is occuring. This includes programs that include the webkit controll, oddly. Though, to be fair, that may not be accurate as I don't experance that as often.
I have verified disk (everything is fine)
I have verified permissions (and repaired them, everything is fine)
Disk and permissions don't seem to have any effect.
Network traffic does not seem slow, I can transfer files at the same rate when the browsers are slow, or when theyre runnning fine.
There is no odd hardware plugged in. I have 1 external USB disk that is always plugged in for timemachine and thats it (thoughI have unplugged that with no effect, and I have added other hardware with no effect)
The websites/pages/browsers seem to run at a normal speed if you don't have them as the active window. Really hard to say if it's just perception cause I am not watching them, or if there is an actuall effect.
The site being browsed doesn't seem to matter. Any site regaurdless of complexity seems to be effected. It could be Javascript related though that is really hard to tell, but browsing sites without any javascript or even from the local hardrive (test pages with no JS) still take a very long time to load.
Average page load time is 15-30 seconds during which the whole browser is unresponcive.
I am mostly talking about safari here as that is what I would really like to use, but chrome has basically the same effect. For this question I am sticking with fixing safari though.
What I am looking for:
A fix would be nice
But I would settle for an explaniation that I can accept.
I am running a MBP 17" with 8 gigs of ram and the 2.53 GHZ i5 processor. I am fully up to date with both Lion and Safari.

Also would like to say DNS resolution is not the problem. I do not use my ISPs DNS servers. I use Google's public DNS servers and a in house caching DNS. DNS resolution is fine, outside the browser and the pages are getting "stuck" while loading not while transfering, or resolving.

Photo quality and compression in iphoto vs canon's image browser, et. al.

hello. brand new here and very new to macs. the question I have is this:
when you import photos to iphoto, do the photos get compressed? do you lose any quality that you wouldn't lose by importing them to image browser or another program?
a friend who is a semi-professional photographer said that some quality is lost in iphoto through compression, but #1) she's probably on an older version than '09 and #2) I know she almost always shoots in raw, so I don't know how much importing of jpegs she does anyway. I am not talking about raw photos, but jpegs shot in the highest resolution (I have a canon g9, which is 12.1 megapixels). she always imports to image browser.
thanks very much,
sean

What format is the external disk? If it's a FAT format this will account for the discrepancy as the FAT format cannot make sense of the Resource fork in the Mac files. Also, the blunt fact is that the Finder can be an unreliable reporter of file sizes.
One reliable way to check if the pics are duplicates is to use Graphic Coverter.
As to the file size in iPhoto - reported in the iPhoto Window. Your camera has an Auto-Rotate feature. However, the camera does not actually rotate any pixels in the file, but instead flags it with an instruction: "Display me this way". No photo app with editing can respect this flag, so iPhoto, seeing the flag, reads the intention and creates a modified version. If you then try to Revert to Original, iPhoto will remove the edited version. However, when it then looks at the Original file again, it sees the flag, and creates a new rotated version. This loop will run as long as you Revert to the Original. The solution is to either a: turn off the Auto-Rotate feature on your camera or b: rotate the photos prior to importing them to iPhoto.
Obviously as it involves compression there is data loss. That's the 2.4 Version.
BTW: are you aware of the Non-Destructive Editing feature in iPhoto?
As to your workflow:
iPhoto is good for 250,000 images, so there is little need to be overly concerned about it becoming "overcrowded". And, you can have multiple libraries, of course.
I mention this because, in your current workflow, only your original files are backed up. Any work you do in iPhoto or via iPhoto - editing, keywording, albums, print objects etc - are not being backed up.
My suggestion would be to simply back up the iPhoto Library Folder and get it all - Original files and everything else.

Is there a way to make a linked PDF open in Acrobat instead of the browser?

I would like to make a PDF open in Acrobat instead of the browser, so that the user can see its interactive features. Is there a way to do this in Muse? Or does it always spend on the user's browser settings?

This would depend on the browser plugin installed , if browser does not have reader plugin then pdf will not open in browser.
Not much can be done via Muse , but you can try some settings on pdf like password protected etc.
Thanks,

How do I send only the sound track from iMovie to Media browser?

I need some wild sound for an iMovie 09 project I'm working on in Garageband (working on the soundtrack). I want to take some wild sound from a clip in iMovie and export it to the media browser so that I can use it in the project in Garageband. I detached the audio on the clip in iMovie and tried deleting the video, but it deletes the detached sound as well.
Any tips, tricks, or solutions on sending just the sound from iMovie to the media browser would be much appreicated.
thanks

With the project open, from iMovie's menu select "Share > Export using QuickTime". For the Export option select "Sound to AIFF". Give it a name and select your Save location. As far as I know, you can't save to the Media Browser as this is contained in the project's package contents folder. So save it to a convenient location (such as your Desktop) and navigate to this from GarageBand. It's probably best if you firstly move the file to, say, your Music folder or iTunes before using it in GarageBand. Otherwise, the links may be lost if you later move it from the Desktop (whereas you are less likely to move it from Music or iTunes).

Applet setsize in IE browser

My swing applet uses layout manager(BorderLayout) - I would like to resize my applet inside IE browser;
I wrote a simple button event - here is the code
private void jButtonResizeActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
int width = 800;
int height = 600;
this.setSize(width,height);
System.out.println("Resized to: " + width + ", " + height);
this.validate();
My browser window is much larger then 800, 600 yet still does not resize.
please help.

You may get a better response if you post this question to the appropriate forum, namely the applet forum.

Acrobat X Browser Plugin is unusable

I have a serious problem regarding the browser plugin of Acrobat X Professional:
Each time I open a PDF-file, the new window lacks all the control items ("Save", "Print", "Pages", etc.).
There is only one small bar at the bottom of the window, which only appears when you move the mouse cursor to that area.
This is completely insane and absolutely unusable.
How can I return to the good old way, like it was in every version before?
I couldn't find an option to set the default behaviour for the browser plugin...
This is how it looks now (totally messed up):
And this is how it's supposed to be:

...that'd be Adobe.
The heads-up display was designed to maximize the document page within the browser window as much as possible, for devices such as netbooks where another toolbar can be quite a lot of vertical height to lose if your PDF page is in portrait mode. On larger screens it's not needed, but some people prefer it, especially in Reader where there's not a whole lot else on the toolbar anyway. Not all, but some.

Do I interact with the browser or Plug-in

I am interested in how Flash gets displayed in a web browser
and how much of the interaction and display is dependant on the web
browser.
If you interact with a flash application on a web browser are
you really interacting with the browser first which passes on the
message to the Flash plug-in. Or after an initial set up is all
interaction with the Flash application directly dealt by the
Plug-in where the browser has essentially no idea what is
happening?
For example when I click on a "Skip" button on a flash
animation shown on a web page, am I clicking on the browser or the
Flash plug-in that is installed on the browser?
I hope explained that clearly enough,
Thanks

I'm assuming fireflox with an L in the name is a typo?
If not, can you provide more detail about the plugin? Who is the publisher, where is it installed, what is it for, etc.?
By the way, if you see plugin-container.exe in the Task Manager, that is used to isolate Flash from firefox.exe so that crashes in Flash do not kill your entire browsing session. That's normal.
Regarding extensions, which ones did you disable that become re-enabled on their own? If you don't want an extension, you should be able to remove it. If it was installed by third party software, then usually you can remove it through the Windows Control Panel and/or options in the related software.

Some Aperture photos and projects missing from iLife Media Browser

Good evening - having a little bit of trouble getting Aperture to work smoothly with my iLife media browser (i.e., inserting photos into Mail, Pages, Keynote, etc).
I currently have 5699 photos and 131 projects in Aperture. But the iLife Media Browser only shows me 5131 photos and 130 projects; when clicking on individual projects in the browser, anywhere from 3 to 70 photos per project are missing. Tried repairing permissions, repairing the database, and rebuilding the database - this improved the issue, but didn't completely resolve it as 5679 photos now show in the Media Browser, and 20 remain missing. Also tried deleting, and generating previews for all my photos in the library. No change.
My library is mostly referenced, with a few photos managed.
Obviously in the grand scheme of things 20 photos missing in the Media Browser not that big a deal. But wanting to get to the root cause though because without solving this issue, I'm concerned about a larger underlying problem that may only get worse as my library grows.
Has anyone had, or resolved a problem similar to this? And can anyone offer any additional suggestions? Are there any specific files that feed the iLife Media Browser that I can delete and rebuild that may solve this issue?
thanks,
Mark

I think I've ironed this out. Several intertwined issues. I took a moment to type out my notes; hopefully it helps you guys solve this quickly if you get a call from someone else on this down the line.
[1] original problem of several hundred items missing in Media Browser: probably an issue of previews not being built. Mostly fixed when I regenerated previews for my library, but repairing permissions and repairing the database may have helped too.
[2] Residual problem of 20 items still missing (5698 items displayed in Aperture when selecting Inspector > Library > Photos; 5677 items displayed in Mail Photo Browser). My issue wasn't as much with 20 missing items in a browser as it was with trying to understand the root cause and whether I had an underlying Aperture, Aperture Library, or OS problem that would bite me later. Turns out several things were causing this problem:
[2a] In Aperture, when you select Inspector > Library > Photos , all your content is displayed: photos, videos, and any audio clips you may have imported (e.g., a recorded audio clip on your camera narrating shoot, location, client, exposure value etc). So even though you've selected "Photos", your "xxx items displayed" count on the bottom of the screen reflects all your imported content. This is not the case in the Media Browser - of which there are two variants in Mac OS:
[2a.1] Mail has a Photo Browser, which behaves much like a "Media Browser Lite: the title bar says "Photo Browser", it only accesses your Aperture and iPhoto Libraries, and only shows photos and video.
[2a.2] iWork applications have a more comprehensive Media Browser, where you can select between Audio, Photos, and Movies. If you select Audio the iWork Media Browser will show any audio files present in your Aperture or iTunes library. If you select Movies, the iWork Media Browser will show any movie clips present in your Aperture or iMovie libraries. Photos behaves the same way as "Photo Browser" in Mail, showing any photos present in your Aperture (or iPhoto if installed) libraries.
Turns out I had three audio clips in my Aperture library. When selecting "Photos" in either the Mail or iWork browsers, the total item count will only show photos and videos - no audio clips. So now 17 missing items remain.
[2b] Stacks - one project contained nine photos grouped into a stack. Only the key photo of a stack is previewed/shown in Media Browser. So a stack of nine photos will only show as one in the browser - unstacking the photo will allow them all to appear. So now nine missing items.
[2c] Seven photographs somehow had broken links to their referenced masters, and needed to be reconnected. Down to two missing items.
[2d] One photo simply wouldn't cooperate - no matter how many times I regenerated the preview, or deleted the preview and then regenerated it, nothing worked. I deleted it from the library and reimported it. One missing item remains.
[2e] Final missing item was a photograph I rejected. Makes sense; as media browser does not display rejects.
Problem solved!! Hopefully this might be of help to somebody in the future.
cheers,
Mark

I want to know how to restore Safari as my home default browser,not Firefox. I don't like Firefox,

Please help me undo making Firefox my default browser..,I much prefer Safari....how do I switch back to Safari as my default browser?

The fastest way is to go to Safari=>Preferences=>General. The first line allows you to select your default browser.

"Forget About This Site" Insanely CPU Intensive, Takes Forever/Crashes Browser -- Same for all history deletions

I have over 6 months of browser history, and I browse twitter a lot. I want to "Forget About" Twitter. Whenever I try to do that, Firefox just hangs, and becomes impossible to use. It's the same if I try to delete, say, everything from 6 months ago.
Deleting my browser history should NOT be a browser-breaking process. My rig is a Phenom IIx4 build, and I'm running off of an SSD. Maybe you guys have tied up all of the browser history into some complicated cache for the URL bar, I don't know. But this is pathetic. If I can delete 10GBs of crap from my HD within seconds, I should be able to delete my browser history.

randomanon1234,
You posted here with PaleMoon in the Firefox support forum, and didn't specifically refer to which version of Firefox your problem is/was with. We assume that the support question is about the browser used to post here, unless that is obviously incorrect; like the thread was started on a Mobile device, or using IE or Chrome - then we ask, if the Firefox version wasn't stated along with the question.
You might think PaleMoon and Firefox are the same and that I am "splitting hairs", but "we" have had a discussion with and initiated by MoonChild of the PaleMoon project in the Contributors area over "us" referring to PaleMoon as a "3rd Party build" of Firefox. He insists that PaleMoon is a Gecko "fork", not a re-branded version of Firefox - IOW, a completely separate browser that uses much of the same code that is in Firefox. MoonChild also informed us that the PaleMoon project had their own support forum, and asked that we refer "his" users that come here, over to the PaleMoon project forum for support.
Now, if that constitutes my being "snarky", I apologize. If you are talking about problems with a version of Firefox that you used to use, you may provide feedback to Mozilla here - https://input.mozilla.org/en-US/feedback
If you aren't using Firefox now because of that problem, this conversation isn't a "support topic".
