Is there a program that works like the old iPhoto?
The old iPhoto is my ideal program. Unfortunately, it does not work on my new operating system. I like having the ability to look over my images with a slide show. However, the new package folder does not give me complete access to my pictures. Is there a program that will have both slide show with music options, and the general folder for the files? I heard that Picasa was supposed to have a general folder, but it is using the iPhoto package.
I have looked over the solutions to getting access to images from the iPhoto package mentioned in the discussion forum. I would like a simpler system that works like the old iPhoto. Is this a possibility? I do not feel comfortable putting my original photo files into a system that does not let me look at the file information, and I would like to have the original benefits of iPhoto tools.
Thank you for your time.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
The current iPhoto is laid out specifically the way it is because of folks like you
Since iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is now a Package File. This is simply a folder that looks like a file in the Finder. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
Even in the old iPhoto it was never correct to access the iPhoto Library Folder.
However, the new package folder does not give me complete access to my pictures.
This is untrue. Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
There they all are.
Standard Warning which applies to every version of iPhoto: Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
I do not feel comfortable putting my original photo files into a system that does not let me look at the file information
What information are you missing? If you can tell us we may be able to help you more.

Is there an app that works like the Mac OS X "finder" for iPhone?

Is there an app that works like the Mac OS X "finder" but to see files on the iPhone???

Apps on the iPhone are sandboxed. That means they only have access to their own files. They cannot see the files of other apps or of the system. This is for security reasons.
There are some apps that present a list of files, like Air Sharing, for you to manage, but there is nothing like the Finder.

Is there any form that works like Jtable that can be written into the html

Is there any form that works like Jtable that can be written into the html or jsp format?
<INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" NAME="command" VALUE=""> refer to a Sumbit Button.
There no such thing below "I think"but just dreaming
Is there something like
<INPUT TYPE="TABLESUBMIT" NAME="customer" VALUE={rowcolumn(1,3,"peter"),rowcolumn(last,"name","jane")}> ......

Keep dreaming. As long as you are using HTML you are stuck with
all of its limitations. Among these is the lack of a JTable.
You have several options:
1) Use an HTML <TABLE>. For plain text you just put the
text between <td></td> tags. For input you put the input
as <td><input...></td>.
2) Extend #1 by creating your own object to draw the table.
You can do this in either Java or JavaScript. There are several
examples on the internet of how to do this. Some even include
sorting by clicking the column headings.
3) If you really want to use a JTable then you can write a JApplet
and put it on your JSP page.

HT204476 is there anyway to get rid of the old iPhoto Library? It defeats the purpose of having a new software if I have to keep the remnants of the older one.

Where are the masters actually stored upon conversion from Aperture to Photos? Photos?
The master files are stored on your drive, but they are not actually stored "in" any folder. Folders are really just special files that store various bits of information about the files associated with that folder, including links to where they actually are stored. That's why you can "move" a file from one folder to another very quickly: all that you really are doing is moving the link & other info from one folder to the other folder, while the file itself stays where it was.
Because of this, it is possible for more than one folder to link to the same file -- in the Finder it looks just like there are two copies of the file, one in each folder, but there really is just the one copy. From the description in the Photos saves disk space by sharing images with your iPhoto or Aperture libraries doc, it looks like that's what happens when you import your iPhoto library into Photos -- both the old iPhoto Library "file" (which actually is a set of folders & subfolders of files) & the Photos Library (also consisting of folders & files) contain links to the master files, but like the Apple doc says, there really is just one set of master files being stored.
This is very similar to the way Time Machine backups look like they have multiple copies of the same unique file, one in each time-stamped backup folder, but there really is only one copy on the Time Machine drive. My guess is Apple is using hard links for this, which means the actual master files will not be deleted from the file system as long as at least one link remains to each of them.
So you should be safe in deleting the old iPhotos Library once you are absolutely sure you don't need it, but to be sure, if it was me I would make a backup just in case, or better yet just leave it alone.

Is there a software that works like Time Machine but for a PC

Hi I am a IT admin for a company in Atlanta, Ga. I use apple at the home and love it. I have several users at my company that can't seem to understand simple file structures. So they are constently deleting, moving and overwriting files on there system. A software like Time Machine would really help me out to recover thier mistakes. The only problem is that they work on windows XP systems. Is there a PC software out there that works like Time Machine?

After evaluating a number of backup software options for my corporate Dell d620 laptop (yes, unbelievably, my company doesn't offer an automatic backup of their users' machines!), I chose Second Copy for the following reasons:
1. Different backup profile options (e.g., I have one that automatically backs up to the local LAN on a schedule and at shut-down when I'm in my office, a profile for manual backup to an external HD, and another profile for manual backup to my 4 GB USB flash drive). You can even backup remotely and trigger an email to a specified recipient when a backup is complete.
2. The backup file structure is not proprietary or in a format differing from the original, thereby not requiring the original software to open the files and restore.
3. Only backs up changed data, making it very quick each time.
4. Simple to set up and use.
5. $29
When working from my home office, I will often run a backup on my flash drive or external HD, transfer it to my Mac, and work from the 24" glossy-screened glory in favor of my tiny washed out Windows laptop display.
I realize this doesn't quite approach the no-brainer flexibility of Time Machine, but with a bit of thought, you could get your users automatically backing up to various locations on varying schedules and accomplish the same thing (i.e., automatically back up every day to their primary local LAN, back up every week to a secondary off-site location, etc.). Effectively, you could have daily and weekly backups to restore from, somewhat similar to Time Machine.
Good luck!

Any avi to mp4 programs that work on the new iMac DC?

Handbrake doesn't work yet. Anybody find something that works in the meantime?
Thanks.

Wow, you guys and gals with the Core Duo might be interested to know that I believe Handbrake is not supporting the 2nd core. Why do i think that?
All the quick tests below are MP4 @ 1000 kpbs.
Here at work we have a Pentium M 1.7GHz, it's averaging about 36fps, a Core Duo averages around 38fps. Becuase the Core Duo is built of the Pentium M line I think it's safe to guess that the 2nd core is not even being used. Imagine Handbrake using the 2nd core.
Now if I am wrong and Handbrake is indeed using the 2nd core, it's a sad day for us all.

How can I get the new version of iTunes to work like the old one?

When I upgraded to iTunes 11, the next time I synched to my iPods etc, many, if not most, of the favorite podcaststhat I had saved in my library got deleted. We are a Mac family and three of us download different podcasts to three different computers. All our dealings (purchases) have been handled through a single Apple ID account.
Since the change to version 11, all the podcasts are jumbled together. I want to subscribe to different podcasts than my wife or son, but our different computers are being treated as one. I'll click to be a subscriber and my son will get the downloads, and vice versa. What a mess!
Is the registry of all three units to a single Apple ID the source of the problem?

When you say "not possible," I assume you mean I can't get it to look like the old version. When I wanted to update the different podcasts, I could hit refresh and select from those available. That seems off the table. And what's with the confusion between computers?

Can I make a calendar that works like the "Birthday Calendar" that updates for something like an anniversary?

I would like to have a calendar called Anniversaries that updates like Birthdays. Is there a way to do this? I like the way it shows the age of the person and would like it to show the number of anniversaries. This would be most helpful for many types of anniversaries. I have it now as a birthday but it is somewhat cumbersome and would seem to work better as a separate calendar.

Here's what I've done which may work for others. I've scrapped the idea of using the birthday reminders function. Instead, I created a new calendar (click the settings icon in the upper right of the icloud website) called "Birthdays-Non Contact". Then I entered the missing bdays as all day events (repeating every year) on this calendar. So now all my birthdays show on my main calendar....some come from the birthday field in the contacts database and the rest come from my newly created "Birthdays-Non Contact" calendar events.
Interestingly, if I choose to show only my "Birthdays-Non Contact" calendar, all my contact birthdays appear on it as well, so it gives a complete list of all my birthdays and nothing else....cool.
I should say, everything I'm talking about is what I see on the ICloud site. My husband has the phone at the moment which I presume will show the same picture.

Are there any apps that work with the G2 to block calls reliably?

I know this subject has been covered but, I have been using Call Control for years since I bought Pro way back when. Worked fine up until I got the G2. Now it says that the only proven method of blocking calls is using MUTE CALLS. The send to voicemail and pickup/hangup options are NOT recommended. I have tried a few others, but they all seem to hijack the call screen. I'm not overly worried about Caller ID features in an app. I know Call Control is in beta with a new version that shows ID, but it's rough and not aesthetically pleasing. Blocking texts isn't a big deal for me either. I know a lot of these apps block texts, but require you to use their messaging portion of their app. Anyone know of a proven pickup/hangup or send to VM app that works on G2?

Call Control works well, but being a beta tester I can tell you that features are changing. It's getting better, but even the Premium users are going to have to pay for lookups after x number credits. IOW, Premium users get a few credits per month and free users have to pay each time. Until that app decides to do right by the Premium users who have already paid for the app long ago I use Contactive because the ID seems better and more accurate than Call Control, Whitepages Current, Truecaller, LineWhoscall, and CallApp. Contactive doesn't have a direct pickup/hangup nor a send to VM, but the info is more correct and that means I can better block calls based on better info.
