IPhoto Importing Advice Requested
Hello All,
I hope someone could perhaps help me with an iPhoto issue. I am helping my friend switch from PC to Mac. Yes, a victory within itself!
He has a rather large photo collection on his PC, and he has everything in precise Folders as far as Named Folders and even Named Folders within Folders.
Does anyone know of a way to maintain the folder names and keep the folder relationships he currently has?
My first attempt was to import his whole library, but iPhoto did not do a good job of keeping form. What it yielded was a massive amount of "events" but still did not Ring true to his folder namings.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

If you want to duplicate a Folder Tree in iPhoto:
Start at the bottom of the hierarchy and drag a folder of images to the Album Heading in iPhoto. The pics will be imported and an Album of the same name created.
You can then create the Enclosing Folders in the iPhoto Window (File -> New Folder) and drag the Album to it. Folders can contain other Folders (Nested Folders) and Albums.
Mimicing the Finder organisation is a bit pointless and wasting the power of iPhoto.
Is your folder system date based? The Calendar tool (Click on the wee magnifying glass in the Search Box) mean you can find the photos taken on any day, month or year at a click. With Smart Albums it's easy to find photos from specific range - say, June 3 to August 25, 2009 etc.
If your folder system is theme based - Xmas pics, Birthday pics etc, then you'll find Keywords are much more flexible, and can be used in conjunction with other criteria for making Smart Albums and searches.

RegardsHi,
As you have collected more than one queries in a single request,first identify the query which is giving problem.For this you can go to se11 and diasplay table RSRREPDIR,go to output list of the table and under ID field give the hexa decimal Id that you got in the error log.The table will display the query associated with this.
In the target system check whether your query changes are reflecting or not.
Make sure that you have collected all the necessary elements ,that is variables ,resricted KFs etc.You can check this via RSA1 Transport connections.
Thanks

How do I get photos from the iPhoto import folder to the iPhoto library? It uploaded, but hung while deleting from my camera, so no imported photos are in the iPhoto library. I watched it upload about 400 photos, one by one. They're somewhere, but they don't appear in the iPhoto library. As iPhoto was deleting them from my camera, it got hung up, then a message came "you should eject before disconnecting a device." I hadn't touched the camera. The message came by itself. I couldn't get iPhoto to respond, so I disconnected the camera and did a Force Quit. Opening it back up, the pictures were gone. Can somebody help me?
What version of iPhoto are you running? Assuming it's iPhoto 9 or later Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

User should not be able to import a request.
Dear Forum,
We have a role created with all the transaction (*) given to a user.
We want to revoke/restrict the authorization to import a request. User be able to create/edit/release the request but should not be able to import. This should happen without changing to existing (*) but at the same time user should not able to import.
<removed_by_moderator>
Regards,
DD
Edited by: Julius Bussche on Feb 18, 2009 10:48 AM> And in the new role you can restrict the user.
I suspect the how was the original question. S_TRANSPRT is the (already given) answer. Deriving will do nothing for that object as not one of its fields is organizational. Besides that, restricting some more objects to make sure the user cannot create and/or use any workarounds is essential to make this work properly.
The additional request This should happen without changing to existing (*) scares me a bit. Why do these users need over 70000 transactions? -

Importing transport request bypassing quality system
HI,
I have a transport request in DEV BW system which is released. For some reason my Quality BW system is down so I cannot import the request in Quality BW system.
Usually we release the request from DEV , say request number DBIK1234, then import that request in quality system. After that we import the same request DBIK1234 into Production.
But for some reason quality system is down, so can we import the request bypassing the quality and directly into Production BW system??
Regards,
Rahul SHi Rahul,
Directly Transporting to PRD from DEV is not considered a "Best Practice"
and is therefore not encouraged. You should import into QAS first then the
Request is available in the PRD import buffer, and you can bypass the
recommended testing process if you really want to. However it is still
possible to import directly into PRD by manually adding the Transport
Request to the import Buffer.
We can also configure our TMS to add released TR's to Quality and PRD importing at the same time.
Better if you go through Transport Management System Documentations before you take decision.
Hope this answers your question.
Regards

Import Items Request remain in Status Pending Normal For a Long Period
Hi,
Import Items Concurrent Requests Remain in Status Pending Normal For a Long Period(30 minutes) Before Running.
It is actually completing within 10 minutes after pending normal for 30 minutes.
This problem is happening only with Import Items concurrent request, Other request are running as soon as they started.
My Application version: 12.1.3
Database Version:11.1.0.7
My Standard Manager details Processes=16 Sleep Time=10 Cache=40
Please correct, If there is need to change Standard Manager configuration...
Plz reply soon.
Regards,
AligAlig,
Standard Manager is running this request, Import Item program request after the completion, creating Item categories for this it is taking time, that is the reason another import items request is waiting for the Item categories program to be completed.You need to find out why the "Item Categories" takes that long to complete.
Do you have the statistics up to date?
Enable trace as per these docs to find out why the request takes that long.

Iphoto import creating and importing duplicates/ios8
I'm using iphoto 9.4.3 and my iphone 5s with ios8. Since septemberish (ios8 update), it's been double-importing all my pix on from my iphone - none are showing up as duplicates on the phone but import/iPhoto view shows and imports them all twice. All images come in as img_1234 and img_1234_2 for example.
Can't figure out why this is but it's a pain - I'm using third party software to scrub duplicates from the library after the fact but is anyone else having this problem?I've got this same problem. Didn't see this thread before I posted mine (Re: iPhoto imports 2 of every photo - iPhone 6).
I've tried:
Hard restart iPhone
Updated iPhoto (9.6)
Updated OSX (10.10)
Updated iOS (8.1.1)
Nothing has worked; I get two of every photo and video imported into iPhoto.
Has anyone else solved this issue? It's not a huge problem; more like an annoyance. -
IPhoto import Browser failure, after security update?
Hi, Anyone else had this problem?
iPhoto import Browser failure.
No Events or Albums show, although PhotoBooth is visible, error message 'Open iPhoto 5 or later to see photos...'
This used to work, but not since installing Security Update 2010-006 (1.0),
with "iTunes" (10.0.1) and JavaForMacOSX10.6Update3.
Using iPhoto '09 (8.1.2), iMovie '09 (8.0.6).
Heard mention that now only alpha-numeric characters are allowed for file names and titles, so started replacing "&", apostrophes, etc. But there are a LOT of photos to change!
Console shows:
[0x0-0x15015].com.apple.iPhoto[264]
MRMovieServer[273] <Error>: kCGErrorFailure
Tried repairing permissions, but got a warning about a SUID file has been modified and will not be repaired, (not sure if this is relevant).
Removed com.apple.iApps.plist and com.apple.iMovie8.plist, which then gave a slightly different view of the browser in iMovie.
Can no longer drag items from iPhoto either!
Any ideas of how to proceed (and remain sane)?Hi,
I've had something like this, since October.
Firstly, In the Utilities folder, open Disk Utility, select the disk where the Applications are (Main hard disk) click First Aid, then "Repair Permissions". Leave it running with nothing else open.
When finished, open iMovie, click the photo browser icon, any luck?
Seen an Apple support doc 'Cannot see iPhoto in other Apps', basically you may be right about ampersands & apostrophes.
In iPhoto, look at all your smart album names for non-alpha-numeric characters, and replace or delete the possible culprits. I had lots of these, including brackets (which were not a problem until recently). Keep checking your smart albums to find others, such as these: !@£$%^&()[]{}'\"|~.
Quit iPhoto and all other iLife Apps, then in your home folder, Library, Preferences, move 'com.apple.iApps.plist' to the desktop (this will be recreated when you next open an iApp/iLife application, such as iPhoto).
You may need to remake the iPhoto AlbumData.xml file, after all that name editing. See later.
Open iMovie and click the photo browser icon, if you still get the message, rather than Albums and Events, Quit iMovie.
Open iPhoto, double check your source list for folders which you may have smart albums in, (click the triangle to the left of any folders that you've made to reveal their contents). Repeat the search and replace of special characters. I'd missed a few, hiding in folders.
Now would be a good time to remake the iPhoto 'AlbumData.xml' file.
Quit all applications, go to your Pictures folder, iPhoto Library, ctrl-click, 'Show package contents', drag 'AlbumData.xml' to the desktop.
Close the finder windows.
Open iPhoto, create a new album, then Quit, (this should remake the xml file).
Open iMovie again and click the photo browser icon. This is the point where I had success, I hope it works for you as well.
All the best, Ian -
Automatic import transport request
Hi Folks,
We are transporting requests from DEV to QA but they are not being imported(changes are not being reflected in QA).What i am doing is manually i am importing to QA.
My query is is there any way by which automatically import is done once we release from DEV environment?
Thanks in advance for the help.
Thanks&Regards,
chanduHi Chandu,
As far as I undertsnad your problem is that you want to perform automatically transports in your QA system when it is released from your DEV system.
This is very simple. Log in to your QA system and then go to STMS and then try to import all transport in you queue with Import all requests button. Then a popup will come that shows you different option to Import Tarnsport request.
Select Radio Button <b>At Start Time</b>. Then define Start Time and also Period.
After scheduling the job you can verify it by Select Go to --> Job Monitor. It will show you when next job will run.
As a result the job will run periodically and transport all requests that are in QA system queue.
Thanks

Re-importing Transport Request
Hi,
I think it's a basis question, but you might know the answer.
It's possible to import transport request which is already completely imported into production system, since I want to transport it to other client in production system.
Advance thanks.
Regards,
Balaji Viswanath.Hello,
Re-importing is possible as well in STMS as with parameter 'unconditional mode' of the tp-Tool. Use unconditional mode '1' to reimport when using tp from command line. In STMS, import the single request by positioning on the request in the import queue and using 'request -> import'. As Option in the following popup, choose 'Import request again'. You might have to add the Request to the import queue again manually, if it is no longer in the import queue.
regard, Kathrin!

Cpufreq behaving somewhat erratically
Ever since the kernel update from about 2-3 weeks ago, I've been having poor performance through cpufreq. With some operations that are very CPU intensive, the speed won't budge above 800mhz (it's lowest setting). For example, with Youtube videos,
