IPhoto '11 Questions / Issues

I upgraded to iPhoto '11 as soon as it became available. As I have been working with it and trying to update all of my old photos with titles, descriptions, locations, etc, I have found a few things that either are bugs with iPhoto, or I just haven't figured out how to do them yet.
First, when setting a location on a photo, the only way I have found to do it is to go into the info screen, then use the small map in the corner to place the marker. Is there a way to get a full-sized map when locating photos?
Second, I have been having some issues with Faces. When I am looking in the info screen for a picture, some pictures show that I have xx number of unnamed faces, where xx could be any number. However, when I look at the picture, I can't find any spot in the photo where there is the box around a section of the photo with the "unnamed" label below it. Why is it showing that I have unnamed faces if there are no markers on the photo?
Also with Faces, I have tried using the feature where I can look at and name 5 pictures at a time. I have 2 questions with regards to this feature. First, is it possible, especially while in full-screen mode to look at more than 5 faces at a time, and second, why does it keep having me rename the same photos over and over again that are all from the same photo?
And finally, another Faces issue, after I mark some Faces through the feature where I name multiple faces at once, I have looked at some photos and it shows a person's name, but it will have the box around a completely different person? Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Regarding the locations see my post HERE.
Can't help you with faces as I don't use that feature.
Happy Holidays

  • W540 Questions & Issues

    Hi Folks,
    Questions & Issues:
    1.  Where is the Break key on the W540?
    2.  My W540 locks up about once every two days - there does not appear to be any common task that causes this.  When it lock nothing works, not Ctrl+Alt+Del, I must power off with the power button.  Any comments or suggestions?
    Observations:
    I'm not a fan of the new keyboard.  For example, the F1..F12 keys are difficult to read (the F parts, not the pictures) and the off center feel leads to difficult typing (at least for me). 
    TIA

    Hi SD
    1. Try Fn+B for Break
    Refer to this post for more information.
    1.2.
    2. Go to Start > Lenovo > System Update. Install all Critical and Recommended Updates.
    3. If No.2 does not work, go to Task Manager > Startup > Try uncheck a few which is optional. Do not uncheck Lenovo Stuffs and Antivirus.

  • IPhoto Import Questions

    I have about 14,000 pictures on the hard drive and want to import them into iPhoto. Any issues with importing that many? Should I do it in steps? If I decide to stop the import half way through does it commit the changes to the library or is it as if I never added those pictures? If I add some more pitures to my hard drive folder do i then need to specify only the new pictures for import or will it know that I have already imported some of them and skip them ( in other words or I end up with duplicates or not?) ?

    I would do them in batches, simply as I don't know what machine you're on, how much Ram etc you have. Importing is multi-stage process: Copying the files, indexing them, processing them for Facs etc. Personally, I would go in batches of about 2k at a time, and let it finish one batch before doing the next.
    iPhoto is good for 250,000 images in one library, so the number  isn’t the issue.
    If I decide to stop the import half way through does it commit the changes to the library or is it as if I never added those pictures?
    Best not to as you may end up with some photos partially processed and the database confused. But it will remember the ones fully imported.
    If I add some more pitures to my hard drive folder do i then need to specify only the new pictures for import or will it know that I have already imported some of them and skip them ( in other words or I end up with duplicates or not?) ?
    Couple of things:
    1. It will warn you if it detects you trying to import duplicates.
    2. Why would you be adding Photos to your hard drive folder? Why not just add them to iPhoto directly?

  • ... several questionable issues ...

    Hello everyone,
    Issue 1 - Is there a search function to narrow the 12000 topics to handful I can manage?
    Issue 2 - Is LightRoom a better (faster, more specific with metadata, and speedier) than Bridge for a cataloging/browsing tool?
    Issue 3 - In LR, we've discovered we can catalog audio interviews by using the .wav files and giving them the same name as the image of the person being interviewed. (JimmyPic01.tif is paired with JimmyPic01.wav, JimmyPic02.tif is paired with JimmyPic02.wav - we give the image the metadata about the date and time of the interview, etc.) Now, is there a limit to the size of the .wav file associated with an image? Will our researchers be able to click on the .wav file and listen to the entire interview? Is it possible to alter the program used to open the .wav files in order to permit fast forward and replay functions? Does the audio player in LR permit those functions?
    Issue 4 - Does Adobe build a catalog package with the elegance of LR (pleasant-looking interfaces and speedy searches) and the simplicity and power of Bridge (catalog audio, video, and documents)? Does LR permit the creation of metadata fields as easily as Bridge?
    I guess many of these questions will get answered if I simply install a copy and play a while. . .?
    Okay . . . I'm off to see the download wizard. . .
    I'll come back and let everyone know what I find as well as see who contributes to my quest. . . (grin)

    Hello Wolf,
    Horace Walpole once stated
    The whole [Scotch] nation hitherto has been void of wit and humour, and even incapable of relishing it.
    So, perhaps this Lightroom forum is more like Scotland than is evident at first glance... (grin) I'm not familiar with the source of your quote... most professionals don't get that status until they have practiced their craft for many years... so, consider me a
    professional-in-training ... or
    amateur, if you like.
    Yet, another misunderstanding on the readers' part... I am fully aware that my comments here on the forum would draw as much attention from Adobe to ban me than my opinions on global warming would attract the attention of the new administration in DC... I was addressing the three initial responders to my original post and inviting them to do what they will to avoid my intrusions.
    My questionable issues revolved around issues of the program which caused me to ask questions for further clarification - there were never any
    objectionable issues raised... simply a few questionable ones.
    I have no intention of letting anyone drive me away while my curiosity for the program is still fresh and vibrant. I'll continue to be me and will permit others to be who they are ... I have no expectations about any aspect of these forums except that most subscribers come here 1 -
    to learn and 2 -
    to help. Finding and making friends might be an ancillary benefit, but for the most part, I would suspect not a primary objective.
    I base my knowledge on forum, email distribution list, and listserv memberships as the creator/moderator of a librarian forum that has recently moved past its decade-old mark... and the current host of several social networks.
    So, although I am new to
    this forum, I am not new to participating in them. I can appreciate the fact that many may not, and will not, accept my approaches to bulletin boards and email interactions; however, it's a big forum, and I am not required, or inclined, to follow any personal preference demands, content restrictions, or behavioral limitations of anyone outside the Terms of Use.
    So, I'll do the best I can at adjusting and adapting in order to get help and give help - but for those who demand the rest of us adjust to their expectations and behavioral norms, they'll have to do a bit of adjusting and adapting themselves ... if nothing else, just to demonstrate they
    can do something that they demand of others.
    @Wolf, thanks for the advice and the encouragement ... I will consider it seriously.
    Thanks for taking the time to respond and compose such a considerate response... I'm a retired Army paratrooper, so
    bail out has such a negative connotation to me - even before the economic crisis began - so I'm not about to leave until all the questions I have are answered.
    Until that time. . . Earl J.

  • Syncing Audio with Merge Clips option and OMF export question/issue

    Hi,
    In the past when I've edited video, when it came to syncing audio I always did it manually.  This time, using Premiere Pro CC, I used the merge clips option, to speed up the syncing audio process, which was a huge time saver with excellent results.
    The question/issue I have..is that when I get my OMF exported for my sound editor, will this screw anything up, since on the project file, it doesn't use the original audio file, but the one that was merged.  And in the project list, I don't even need to have the original audio file listed, since it's already been merged into a clip, which I used in the project.  I know it's the same file used, but will it mess anything up since a merged clip audio was used instead of just dragging the original track onto the timeline? 
    - Ken

    A good way to know for sure (and therefore feel comfortable that you're doing the right thing) is to do a test OMF export, then open this in Audition. This ill show you exactly what you're exporting.

  • Specific questions/issues on importing iPhoto '09 into Aperture 3

    Questions I have about migrating to Aperture 3 from iPhoto '09:
    -will Places carry over as I've set them up, and customized on many images, with my own names etc? YES - They say Places come over, but don't know all the details
    -will my Albums carry over as I've set them up, including Smart Albums, MobileMe galleries, Flickr galleries, etc? YES....I think - Albums, Smart Albums, and Slide Shows come over - no mention of MobileMe, Flickr, etc - although you can publish to those, the albums you've set up? Dunno, will test.
    -will all my metadata that I've added in Description fields etc carry over? UNANSWERED
    -and here's a biggie - I've spent I don't want to know how many dozens or hundreds of hours on using the Adjustment panel on thousands of images - will those Adjustments carry over and look the same in Aperture 3? Or will I lose those changes or have them look different? This is probably the biggest dealbreaker if it doesn't work as I hope.
    -when is it safe to migrate over? I certainly want to hold onto the existing setup in case anything goes wrong, and I'll need at least as much space to move it over. Should I wait for the inevitable 3.0.1? When's that due?
    -how are altered images saved - and how much control do I have over it? I save modified images in iPhoto as JPEG on the theory that is fine for export but not archive if I want to change it later
    -will my star ratings carry over?
    -if I import my iPhoto library over, does it maintain the source unaltered RAW as well as the altered?
    -are the source images still directly accessible via Finder etc - what if I want to pull an image sequence into After Effects, for instance? I don't want to have to export new files to do so.
    -are styles from my camera's RAW presets respected? I've noticed that D300S RAW images are reported at an exagerated size (4304 instead of 4288 pixels wide, similarly overtall), and if I set the camera to black and white, iPhoto recognizes them as color images. I suspect this has something to do with D300S RAW support at an OS level, but will Aperture 3 do any better?
    I'm posting an article over at ProVideoCoalition on this stuff, I'll update from what I learn here.
    -mike

    You can answer all these queries yourself. Simply you will make a back up of your iPhoto Library before migrating over. No one would seriously consider doing a job like that without a back up, right? Then, if you're not happy with the outturn you can simply restore your back up.
    -will Places carry over as I've set them up, and customized on many images, with my own names etc? YES - They say Places come over, but don't know all the details
    What more details do you want?
    -will my Albums carry over as I've set them up, including Smart Albums, MobileMe galleries, Flickr galleries, etc? YES....I think - Albums, Smart Albums, and Slide Shows come over - no mention of MobileMe, Flickr, etc - although you can publish to those, the albums you've set up? Dunno, will test.
    Your Events come over as projects. Albums and Smart Albums and slideshows come over though you may find differences in the Slideshows as the mechanism is not quite a replica of the iPhoto one.
    I have no Flickr albums or MobileMe ones either.
    -will all my metadata that I've added in Description fields etc carry over? UNANSWERED
    Mine did.
    -and here's a biggie - I've spent I don't want to know how many dozens or hundreds of hours on using the Adjustment panel on thousands of images - will those Adjustments carry over and look the same in Aperture 3? Or will I lose those changes or have them look different? This is probably the biggest dealbreaker if it doesn't work as I hope.
    Your edited pics come over with their originals. They look the same
    -when is it safe to migrate over? I certainly want to hold onto the existing setup in case anything goes wrong, and I'll need at least as much space to move it over. Should I wait for the inevitable 3.0.1? When's that due?
    Yesterday or tomorrow or never. That's the answer to both parts of your question. There may never be a 3.0.1, no one outside of Apple knows.
    -how are altered images saved - and how much control do I have over it? I save modified images in iPhoto as JPEG on the theory that is fine for export but not archive if I want to change it later
    Aperture is very different from iPhoto. There is no edited version. Your decisions are stored in the Aperture database and applied live as you view the pics. They are only committed to images when you export or print the pic.
    -will my star ratings carry over?
    Mine were.
    -if I import my iPhoto library over, does it maintain the source unaltered RAW as well as the altered?
    Haven't you asked this already? Yes.
    -are the source images still directly accessible via Finder etc - what if I want to pull an image sequence into After Effects, for instance? I don't want to have to export new files to do so.
    Depends on whether you run a Managed or a Referenced Library. If you want to use processed or edited images in another app you'll need to use Previews (for those apps that support that) or else export versions. This is exactly the same as previos versions of Aperture.
    are styles from my camera's RAW presets respected? I've noticed that D300S RAW images are reported at an exagerated size (4304 instead of 4288 pixels wide, similarly overtall), and if I set the camera to black and white, iPhoto recognizes them as color images. I suspect this has something to do with D300S RAW support at an OS level, but will Aperture 3 do any better?
    This question is not clear, but you do know, of course, that even if you set your camera to black and white that it takes colour photos, right? And all it does is flag the pics with a tag: 'Display Me in Black and White'
    This has nothing to do with Raw support. You'll get better B&W images in Aperture than on your Camera.
    I'm posting an article over at ProVideoCoalition on this stuff, I'll update from what I learn here.
    You're going to take the time to learn the differences - the very profound differences between iPhoto and Aperture - before you do this, right? Because, based on some of your queries here - especially the ones about modified images, make me wonder if you've grasped Aperture.

  • IPhone 4 and iPhoto 9 import issue

    I just bought an iPhone 4 to replace my iPhone 3GS a few days ago. I finally had a chance to try its camera this weekend. Much to my surprise, all the photos I imported into iPhoto 9 on my MacBook Pro lost their XIF and geotag data once they landed in my iPhoto 9 library. I deleted the photos from my iPhone 4 so I couldn't go back to verify that the information was there. So tonight, I went out for a walk and I shot a few more photos with my iPhone 4. Instead of importing them into iPhoto 9, I used Image Capture to import them from my iPhone 4 into my MBP's Pictures folder. Then I checked and all the XIF and geotag data survived the transfer. I then imported the photos into iPhoto 9 by dragging them onto its icon in the Dock. I then was able to view the XIF and geotag data from within iPhoto 9.
    So my question is, why can't iPhoto 9 import the XIF and geotag data in photos directly from the iPhone 4? Is there any way I can fix this via some optional setting or am I do I need to wait for Apple to resolve this issue?

    I don't have any problem importing photos from my iPhone 4 with iPhoto '09 (v 8.1.2)--it just works, so I really don't know what might be going wrong. I import by selecting my iPhone 4 in the iPhoto Devices and then select the ones I want to import and click on import selected. It has never failed to also import the EXIF data including the geolocation/camera info.

  • Aperture & iPhoto referenced library issues

    Hi,
    For the last couple of days I've been busy trying to get my Aperture library to work properly. I recently started using a referenced library because of lack of space on my internal ssd. I've generated previews on all of my 40000 photos. I can see all of my Projects, thumbnails, metadata etc. when my external drive is disconnected. However, there are two major issues:
    1) Most of the video thumbnails are broken, both in Aperture and iPhoto. By double clicking a thumbnail of a video (.mov, .avi etc.) it sometimes starts playing, sometimes it doesn't, totally inconsistent. I can export the video and it works just fine.
    2) While using iPhoto with the external drive disconnected, all Events are there, the thumbnails are there, everything looks ok, but I can only view some of the previews/photos after double clicking the thumbnails. A dialogue opens up saying "The volume for [imagefilename] cannot be found. Insert the disk or connect to the server volume..", but I can actually see the full size preview behind this dialogue. By clicking "Cancel" the photo dissapears and is replaced by a black screen with a grey exclamation mark. This does not occur while using Aperture, I can see all of my previews in full glory when the external drive is disconnected. However, with the external drive connected everything works in iPhoto (except above mentioned issue with videos).
    Please boys and girls, help me out with this!
    System information
    OS: Maverick 10.9.1
    Aperture: 3.5.1
    iPhoto: 9.5.1
    Thanks!
    //Michel

    I don;t use iPhoto much so I'm no expert but looking at other posts asking a similar question sems to indicate iPhoto is not capable of doing this.
    See Can iPhoto view pictures on a disconnected external drive in a unified photo library? for one example.
    Again if Aperture is working correctly on the referenced images on the disconnect drive and iPhoto is not you will need to ask the iPhoto folks.
    regards

  • IPhoto 6 - Import issue, hangs at end

    Folks, any help with this would be much appreciated.
    I installed iLife 06 and all went well, other than the "recovered photos" issue which others have mentioned - no biggie as there were only 3.
    But I have a problem now when importing from disc (HD or CD) - in that the import goes ahead, but freezes at the end. iPhoto doesn't freeze - you can look at folders / the library etc.. while the import process is hanging - and interestingly the library does include the photos within the import which has hung.
    The import will hang for ages (hours, not seconds), and I can't stop it using the stop import button, nor can I quit iPhoto (hoping it will tidy up).
    After 30mins+ of waiting, a couple of times, I've force-quit iPhoto. When opening again, the pics aren't in the library - but looking with the finder they do all exist in the originals folder, and the data folder.
    A total rebuild of the library fails to include the pics.
    Anyone else had this? I'm a pretty vanilla user - I haven't mucked about in my old iPhoto 5 library at all etc...
    One related question - the following files are in my iPhoto Library - judging by their dates (I installed iLife on Jan 24) and names, are some old iPhoto 5 files?
    Feb 5 22:17 AlbumData.xml
    Jan 24 20:37 Albums
    Feb 5 19:04 Data
    Feb 5 22:20 Dir.data
    Jan 24 20:37 Library.data
    Jan 24 20:37 Library.iPhoto
    Feb 5 22:17 Library6.iPhoto
    Feb 5 22:20 Library6.temp
    Feb 5 19:05 Modified
    Jan 26 21:40 Originals

    Feb 5 22:20 ThumbJPGSegment.data
    Feb 5 22:17 iPhoto.ipspot
    Jan 24 21:15 iPhotoLock.data
    Any suggestions appreciated

    Jonathan:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. The albums folder is a carryover from the V4 days and is no longer useful. You can trash it. Albums are now identified and linked within the AlbumData.xml file with no aliases being used any more.
    The Library6.temp is not normally in a library folder. It's probably left over from one of your forced quits and can be deleted.
    How much free space do you have on your HD? Have you tried rebuilding the library? Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. I'd select the first three options.

  • Ap3 - iPhoto: Metadata + Organizational issues

    I was hoping for improved cross-app integration with the advent of Aperture 3, but apparently not. Nevertheless, I'm still curious if SOMEONE who uses both programs has figured out a way to do the following:
    I want to be able to drag MULTIPLE Aperture Projects from an Aperture 3 Library (via iPhoto's "Show Aperture Library" browser window) into iPhoto, and have them then appear in iPhoto as SEPARATE Events, rather than being all lumped together into a single iPhoto Event.
    ALSO, would like the name of each project to automatically become the name of each respective iPhoto Event, rather than those Events all suddenly becoming "Untitled".
    AND -- in an ideal world -- would love to have the Caption information I'd entered for each image in Aperture appear in the relevant Description field in iPhoto.
    Is there ANY way to do this? For now, I'm limited to dragging in one Aperture Project at a time (in order to keep each one as a separate Event in iPhoto). And if I'm lucky, SOME of the Aperture Keywords I've assigned transfer over (though curiously, some don't), but I'm out of luck as far as Project->Event names, as well as Caption->Description info for each image.
    Other than my sending in more feature requests to both apps, can anyone suggest any paths to better metadata integration between Aperture 3 and IPhoto '09?
    (BTW, the reason I'm having to do this is so my wife can use iPhoto -- whose interface she prefers -- to view our domestic image library. To do this, I maintain a backup copy of my full Aperture Library on her iMac, and then import the previews it contains into her iPhoto Library, with iPhoto's "copy" option turned off. This in effect allows her to use iPhoto simply as an image viewer, which is all she wants to do.)
    Thanks,
    John Bertram,
    Toronto
    (If this question would be more appropriate for the iPhoto forum, please let me know and I'll switch it over.)

    Alan Williams wrote:
    IPhoto lacks the more comprehensive Metadata options that are present in Aperture. Presumably iPhoto is aimed at family use rather than as an outright professional toolbox. This is what I think limits your metadata from carrying over. Where it does carry over, could that be because the Keyword is present in both metadata dictionaries? Just a thought.
    You could be right on the Keyword question -- I'll check that one later.
    Part of my Ap3<->iPhoto frustration is that the kind of metadata I'm talking about -- things like Project/Event names and Caption/Description text -- is stuff I've entered using the Apple interface, as opposed to the very detailed kind of camera metadata which Aperture ingests when importing.
    It seems like this kind of user-defined, user-entered, and user-editable info -- what I'll call "soft" metadata -- should be tranferrable from one Apple image program to another Apple image program, their different (though certainly overlapping) target audiences notwithstanding.
    And I seem to recall that when I first set up my Aperture Library in the Fall of 2008, I had the same issue going the other way -- Aperture, for all its sophistication, seemed incapable of automatically naming Projects the same as the Event names it was importing, and couldn't seem to transfer the iPhoto Description info I'd entered for specific images (some of it fairly detailed) into the appropriate Caption field in Aperture.
    Automator might have offered you a solution to Event building if you had used albums in your Aperture Projects. Since you use folders I cannot see an option that will import those into iPhoto. The drawback with using such a method is the export processing time involved.
    Another hitch with my particular situation is that my Aperture Library is referenced to a Master Images folder on my Mac, whereas my wife's machine has a backup copy of the Ap Library only. So while the image Previews which that copy offers are plenty big enough for her viewing purposes, the Library itself doesn't have access to the Master Images folder, and therefore cannot do its own Exporting.
    Since your good lady is only intending to view, I would be inclined to create desktop folders to match your Project contents and drag out the previews into those (Browser/Select All.) Then manually drop the folders into iPhoto thus automatically creating an Event named the same as the desktop folder. This means just a few moments work on each folder.
    And the problem here is my very narrowly-focussed, chronological Project structure (with folders for each year, sub-folders for each month, and then individual Projects by date) makes for a Library with over 1200 Projects -- each of which needs to be seen in iPhoto as a separate Event.
    Also, I can't seem to find a way to export and/or drag previews from Aperture's Browser (either in groups of Projects or even just one Project at a time) into the Finder in such a way that folders are automatically created whose names match those of the Projects. And if I would have to manually create -- and name -- each of those Finder folders before dragging previews into them from Aperture, and THEN drop those folders into iPhoto, I'm not sure what's been gained vs. manually renaming "Untitled" Events inside iPhoto itself.
    But maybe I'm not completely understanding the workflow you were suggesting.
    In any case, thanks for taking the time to write.
    I cant think of a faster method.
    Needless to say -- if you do, don't keep it a secret!
    Cheers,

  • IPhoto video playback issues

    Has anyone had issues after upgrading to iOS Yosemite?  In iPhoto ver 9.6 when attempting to play high-res videos taken on a gopro the video playback is very choppy.  The audio seems to be fine, but the video is quite bad.  Looking at 1920x1080 res @60 fps.  For those familiar with gopro these were taken while protune was enabled.  Never had an issue while using Maverick.

    Hi lksdjfl,
    Thanks for the question. Based on what you stated, it seems like you want to install a prior version of OS X because of choppy video playback. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.

  • IPhoto to iDVD issue

    Created a slideshow with music in iPhoto. Plays perfectly on the iMac. However, when transferred to iDVD the transitions become very juddery. Anyone any suggestions?

    Greetings,
    This is probably a question you will want to post in the iDVD forum as you say the slideshow plays fine in iPhoto, however there are some steps you can take to test.
    _Open the slideshow in iPhoto and then click on the Export button in the bottom right.
    _Check off the option for "Display"
    _Uncheck the option for "Automatically send slideshow to iTunes"
    _Save the movie to the desktop for easy access.
    _Once the export is complete (it can take quite awhile if its a long slideshow), double-click that file on the desktop to play it in Quicktime player. How does it look here?
    _If it plays fine there is nothing wrong with iPhoto, this is an iDVD / burning issue.
    _Drag this good playing file into a new iDVD project and then try burning again.
    Hope that helps.

  • Adobe Photoshop Touch Question / Issue

    Hello,
    I bought Adobe Photoshop Touch some time ago for my Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 and I liked it so much. Of all the apps I had for photo editing, this one gave me all I need. I used to own Adobe Photoshop CS2 on my old PC so I wanted something for my tab as well. I was very satisfied by this app until my tab died some time ago. After a pain of service and repairs, the tab worked again but it had a new issue. Anytime I used the device on something more demanding (i.e. playing games ) the tab overheated a lot and the screen started to touch itself very much as, if it was pressed all the time. After some time of struggle with it I decided to wipe it clean and pass it out to a family member who would maybe dedicate more time to fix it.
    Last month I bought myself a new device ( Sony Xperia Z ) and I was eager to get all my data on it and apps of course. To my sadness Adobe Photoshop Touch is not compatible with my device now, and it just sits there in my app list doing nothing . I could install only Photoshop Express but it does not give me the full access I had with Touch. I saw that there is another product called Photoshop Touch for smartphones and it seems to be the same as what I had only phone edition.
    My problem is that I can not get this new app unless I pay for it and I do not wish to do that because I already paid for the previous edition.
    My question is: Can I somehow obtain the Smartphone edition and the previous version ( which apparently is for tablets I suppose ) be removed from my Google Play account. I would purchase the smartphone version but there is no point in having 1 app 2 times.
    I would happily like the staff to remove my previous version from my account if they would gave me the smartphone version and I acknowledge that the tab app was more expensive than the smartphone version and Adobe will not refund me the money difference nor are they obligated to give me the smartphone version. I am just asking if it would be possible because I like that app and it's such a shame for it to be in my app list and not be used. Thank you for your time in reading this and no matter what answer I get, I will be ok with it. Have a nice day .

    I don't think you'll have much luck. PS Touch for tablets was designed for just tablets; PS Touch for phones was designed for just phones. Touch for phones came out a little later than Touch for tablets. (By several months, if I recall.) On the brighter side, if you ended up buying Touch for phones, you'd be covered no matter which device you had.
    Both are very similar in function. I believe the only differences are their UIs; Touch for tablets is landscape-oriented-specific while Touch for phones is portrait-oriented. (Some elements are also placed differently.) I imagine this allows for maximum utilization of screen real estate and element placement.

  • Iphoto 11 rotation issue.. Please Help..

    I'm having an issue with iphoto with the way it's displaying images. For some reason when I view the contents of an event it will rotate and stretch images randomly even when the thumbnails are displayed the correct way round. There seems to be no reason why this is happening,
    I have been through all the rebuild options in iphoto and have rebuilt the library using iphoto library manager but it's still happening.
    Sometimes when I launch iphoto it isn't an issue straight away, I have to look through several events before it starts rotating images...

    One the chance that it might be a preference file in your account that is the culprit first start with this:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    or with Lion and Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
    Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE 1: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    NOTE 2:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    If that doesn't do the job it could be a preference file other than iPhoto's.  Here's how to test that:
    Trouble Shooting Preferences
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    1 - close all applications.
    2 - open your Home/Library folder and Option-drag (copy) the Preferences folder to the Desktop. 
    3 - select the contents of your Home/Library/Preferences folder and drag them into the Trash bin in the Dock.  You will be asked to provide your Admin password.
    4 - reboot.
    5 - run the application again and determine if the problems is fixed
    6 - If the problem is fixed:
    A - open the working Home/Library/Preferences folder.
    B - Open the Preferences  folder on the Desktop, select all of the contents and drag them into the working Home/Library/Preferences folder.
    C - When the Copy window pops up check the "Apply to All" check box and then click on the Don't Replace or Skip button.
    D - reboot.
    7 - If the problem is NOT fixed, drag the contents of the Preference folder on the Desktop into the Home/Library/Preference folder and replace the entire contents that were created by clicking on Replace.
    8 - reboot.

  • WD Java iView Creation Question/Issue - CE 7.1 EHP 1 Trial

    Hi all,
    Im posting this question here seeing as that the issue has arrised on an installation of the AS JAVA and EP shipped with CE 7.1 EHP1 Trial.
    When attempting to create an iView for a deployed custom WD Java app on the trial Portal I am taken straight to the iView template selection without being given the options for iView creation( ie. create from template, portal component or WD Java app). Is this by design ( WD Java iView creation has changed from previous Portal versions or is limited in Trial installation), is this an issue with the components shipped with the Trial or an issue on my installation only?
    Currently my only solution for deploying WD java content is to copy the actual application and paste it as Portal content which then creates a WD Proxy page with a single WD Proxy iView (that of the copy pasted WD app). This is fine for single app scenarios but becomes an issue with multiple apps on one page and drag and relate scenarios.
    Kind regards,
    Willem.
