IPhoto 08 & AppleScript - support for set rating?

I am considering upgrading iPhot from 06 to 08..
So I don't have 08.
Can anyone confirm whether or not the AppleScript support has been improved to allow for setting the Rating of photos via AppleScript?
Thanks!
Steve

Steve:
Still no rating support via AS. I cannot find anything new in the AS dictionary since the latest edition. Perhaps with Leopard???

You might want to check your firmware version. Go to: Settings>General>About. Look at the version field, it should be: 5.0.1(9A406). If it's 9A405 you need to update the firmware by connecting your phones to iTunes and updating it. This worked for me as I work on a ship and don't have a signal inside. I was having to do your little trick many times during the day when I would go outside to check for messages.

Dropping Applescript support for Pages

apple new suite is grate!, but as it does not have Applescript support for Pages I can no longer use my citations tools and that makes pages '13 useless for me. Are you going to fix that at any time soon?

Hard to add AppleScript support for things that simply are not there.
True. However, if you look at the Applescript dictionary for Pages '09, most of the objects are still there in the UI in Pages 5 even though there is no way of scripting them. It seems there simply was no time to get them into the scripting dictionary. The citation tools of Guchi922 may not be supported, however.
If Apple implements all the objects they can in Pages 5' scripting dictionary, another question arises: Will there be much compatibility with scripts written for Pages '09, and there I do not dare being an optimist.

Iphoto 6 no support for Nikon D40 (NEF-Format/RAW)

Hello,
I want to use iphoto (Version 6.0.5) with NEF-files of my D40, but that files are not supported yet. I haven´t found a solution in the forum.
I don´t want to buy another program to be able to edit the nef-files. The functions of iphoto are still enough for me.
Can anybody help me.
With regards

For maximum compatibility I suggest you run the 10.4.9 COMBO updater, the Quicktime 7.1.6 updater and the iPhoto 6.0.6 updater. Also, if you haven't already done so, run the Digital Camera RAW Support Update 1.0.1. Follow it with a repair of disk permissions with Disk Utility.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Applescript support for future CS

Hi,
I was asked by a customer if Applescript is going to be still supported in the next CS versions (starting from CS5).
As Adobe is focusing more and more on Flex/AS3 for extensions, the question has made sense to me. So I ask here.
Do you have any infos on that topic ? Will Applescript be supported for ever, is it planned to be abandoned ?

I would love to see Applescript support within Bridge, as I need to integrate Bridge, Filemaker, BBEdit, and OmniPlan into a start to finish workflow system. Javascript just doesn't cut it as it relates to file handling/manipulation.

Applescript Support for Airplay?

Does anyone know if there is direct support for controlling Airplay speakers in iTunes via Applescript?
I know there are hacks to select the desired Airplay speaker using keypreses and manipulation of the speakers via the iTunes UI. However, this isn't a great way to do it, as the ordinal references to the UI elements can change with each iTunes update, and the context you are in (e.g. Album list view, or tracklist view) can affect the ordinal reference of the Airplay button too.
An Applescript one liner would be nice to control Airplay speakers if the command is being called from the osascript utility.
Any suggestions welcome. Thanks!

Apart from the hacks you mention, I don't know a way to script iTunes' Airplay choice.
However, Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil is scriptable - so if you use it to grab the iTunes output you can direct the sound where you wish using AppleScript.
Not ideal, but it does work.

AppleScript support for Bridge

We have quite an investment in very mature workflows built using Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop that are driven by AppleScript. As one of the advance testers for CS2 deployment in the company, I can already imagine several things that Bridge might bring to the party... If only it would play nice in our AppleScript environment.
Here's my vote for AppleScript support in Bridge!

Support for setting up Paid book account ibook author

I want to set up a pid book account for ibook author. did get a US EIN (I am German), got meanwhile an ISBN, and filled the form for a paid book account some 6-8 weeks ago. No response at all ydet from apple. I thenwanted to set up another account with another ID (as I am thinking my first try went into a black hole) - but then the syygtem said then my EIN was already used by another user.
The Genius bar in my apple strore could nto help, and the support from itunes neither.
Does anybody can give a hint whom to ask in Apple what happened?

Check your spam folder for message from Apple with the address [email protected] That's the From: address they use for correspondence regarding your iTunes Connect account.

IPhoto 09 RAW Support for Olympus E-30

Hi,
I already have an Olympus E-510 which is supported & recently got an E-30 body which doesn't appear to be supported by IPhoto.
Does anybody know when & if an update will be released to add the E-30 to the RAW compatibility list?
aTdHvAaNnKcSe

Keep an eye on the Raw compatibility list and hope the E-30 is added soon...
http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html
Note: Camera compatibility is the same for iPhoto and Aperture.
Cheers,
Patrick
p.s. I believe the RAW support is in OS X rather than either application, so be sure to check the updates from Apple. I know I occasionally see updates for Raw support offered as a system download for OS X.

I need online support for setting up my email on my Imac

I need someone to walk me though the mail set up process on my new IMAC. I am new to Apple computers, and am totally lost. Thanks any help would be appreciated.

What email service will you be using? There should be a help guide there that gives you server names, ports, etc that will help setup your iMac mail.

AppleScript support for Mail Merge

how can I Create mail merge on new pages

Mail Merge is not built into any version of Pages v5, as it was in Pages ’09 v4.3. Instead, one must understand AppleScript to simulate Mail Merge. Here is an example article and code.

Is there any planned support for the "do not back up" extended attribute for iOS

Starting in iOS 5.0.1, Apple has introduced a new "do not back up" extended file attribute that will allow an app to store downloaded data into the application folder. Is there any planned support for setting this attribute within an AIR application or is there currently a way to set this attribute using the existing AIR SDK.

Yes, this is exactly what I'm wondering too. Without it, we can't build any apps that download content without the risk of the content being deleted.
Here's the background before Apple introduced the new "do not back up" attribute:
http://www.marco.org/2011/10/13/ios5-caches-cleaning
Fortunately, Apple addressed it after that blog post in 5.0.1. See bullet #4 here, quoted below
https://developer.apple.com/icloud/documentation/data-storage/
Q: My app has a number of files that need to be stored on the device permanently for my app to function properly offline. However, those files do not contain user data and don't need to be backed up. How should I store those files in iOS 5?
A: Starting in iOS 5.0.1 a new "do not back up" file attribute has been introduced allowing developers to clearly specify which files should be backed up, which files are local caches only and subject to purge, and which files should not be backed up but should also not be purged. In addition, setting this attribute on a folder will prevent the folder and all of its contents from being backed up.
Important: The new "do not back up" attribute will only be used by iOS 5.0.1 or later. On iOS 5.0 and earlier, applications will need to store their data in <Application_Home>/Library/Caches to avoid having it backed up. Since this attribute is ignored on older systems, you will need to insure your app complies with the iOS Data Storage Guidelines on all versions of iOS that your application supports.
Now we just need Adobe to support the attribute in the AIR SDK. What do you say Adobe?

Applescript support?

The KB article about what is coming in the next 6 months lists "Improvements to AppleScript support" for Numbers 3.0. AppleScript Editor tells me Numbers 3.0 is unscriptable. So by "improvements to AppleScript support" does Apple mean "Bringing back Applescript support" or am I missing something? Is there any AppleScript support in Numbers 3.0 now?

Hello
Note that the said article [1] states nothing about any improvements to AppleScript support in Pages v5 and yet the existing AppleScript support in Pages v5 is reportedly miserable one, which lacks the decent objects model and decent methods to manipulate them. It would suggest the degree of "improvements to AppleScript support" in Numbers v3.
Another thing to note is that iToy platform does not support AppleScript at all and thus implementing extensive scripting support in Numbers for Mac would contradict their obssessed scheme to have a common (divisor) software for both platforms. It would suggest the AppleScript support in Numbers v3 would never be better than in Numbers v2 at the most which itself is very limited to say the least.
After all, it seems quite clear to me that Apple has effectively killed iWork for Mac by degenerating it into iToy version. From my experience I no longer see any future in this programme suite as productivity work horse.

Support for Mobile Device?

Do you foresee adding support for setting up mobile device projects (Android etc ...).
This would be great to help with any external - device specific - files required.

GREAT!
Anything you can do to keep the developer writing MXML and AS3 is good.
Shield them from all the platform specific complexities.
Looking forward to it.
