Link Messages 'My Picture' to the image in my Contact Card

I recently installed a new SSD into my MacBook thus I did a fresh install of OS X Mountain Lion (and applied any updates). I opened Messages and sent a message, but noticed that the Avatar used for myself was the same image I selecting when setting MacBook up (Guitar Avatar). If I recall, before doing the fresh install, Messages was using what Picture I had set in my Contacts Card ('me'). Should this be the case by default? I am sure this what I saw before reinstalling ML.
Can one link the Message picture to that of ones own Contact Card?

Hi,
It is not strange.
It is about which Pic you chose when and in which order.
If you don't change the Addresss Book (Contacts) My Card pic it will default, on a fresh Install, to the Mac User Account one.
Messages will do the same (even if you change the Contacts one) it will default to the Contacts List one if you don't set one in Messages.
You can in fact be using three different Pics.

When I used mountain lion in a preview of a picture I could just press the icon that was a box with an arrow pointing up and that would allow me to share (message, email, Facebook, etc) the image. Now in Yosemite in preview if I click the box-arrow

When I used mavericks in a preview of a picture I could just press the icon that was a box with an arrow pointing up and that would allow me to share (message, email, Facebook, etc) the image. Now in Yosemite in preview if I click the box-arrow

Found my answer in another thread- this is what I did
GO to System Preferences > Users > Right Click on your Name > Advanced Options > and refresh your UUID
Restart your System and the widgets are all back
This solution worked fine for me!

How can I copy all the info from a contact card in address book to paste into a documnent?

The advantage goes to FCP7 if you allow that it can copy and paste filters, audio and video, transformations, and other attributes separately.
You can do that in FCPX too, as all the things you cited are listed separately in the inspector.
Here's a little gotcha. Let's say you've color corrected a few clips and you've applied an effect to one and want to paste it the other clips. You switch off color correction and copy the clip. You select the other clips and paste effects. What do you think happens? The effect is applied, but the color correction is applied as well, only it's switched off as it was in the first clip, so all the color correction on the other clips is lost. Fun, eh?
I'll try to replicate your gotcha - but no, that doesn't sound like fun at all!

How do you delete entire folders of pictures in the image editing software instead of one at a time!

Don't know how I did it, but I imported 11,000 pictures into the new image editing software - none of which I took with my new powershot sx50 hs. I can only delete the ONE AT A TIME - HELP!! Anyway to delete entire folders?

Thank you for your reply. I did not get an 'advanced guide' on the CD... I just got 89 page user guide.
About deleting, you can not select multiple pics (by holding control key). You can only delete ONE at a time. I don't have time to delete 11, 137 pictures.
OH MY! Love the camera but paid too much for it not to be able to use the software. Thanks again.

TS3276 When forwarding messages with pictures included, the pictures are deleted. This started when I updated OS X 10.8.2. How can I fix this?

Having trouble forwarding emails that contain pictures. The text is there but in place of the picture is a 'missing plugin' message. Never had this problem before but started after updating the mail thru Lion update.

Back up all data.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Select the text on the line below by dragging across it. Don't include the blank space at the end of the line.
sudo chmod -R -N
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). Click anywhere in the Terminal window, then paste (command-V). Press the space bar.
Now switch to the Finder and and select the item(s) that are causing the problem. Drag the items into the Terminal window. More text will be added to what you entered.
Click in the Terminal window to activate it, then press return.
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command.
The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear. You can then quit Terminal.
Test.

So i was merging pictures together in events and all of the sudden I had several come up with no pictures just the image number when I click on the picture which is bland a black exclmation point shows up. Have I lost my pictures for good?

So I was merging pictures in the events and all of the sudden several went black and when i clicked on the photos they were gone and when I click on the blank picture with an image number under it an exclamation point show up. Have i lot these pictures for forever?

I'm sorry, but your sister, unless she had already turned on the "Find my iPhone" feature and the person who took the phone has not disabled it, is out of luck. She should report the theft to local police authorities, including the serial number of her iPhone. While her experience is unfortunate, there are good reasons why Apple cannot do anything else about it.
I hope she gets her phone back.
Best of luck.

Some of my website images with embeded links only show the link with firefox, with IE8 the image appears correctly, why does this happen

my website http://www.functionkey.net. If you view my homepage you will see that 3 of my images with embedded links only show up with the links. I am not using "_blank" in my code. The website was created using Microsoft Frontpage 2003.

If you look at the page source then you will notice that there are some errors with (missing) closing tags.<br />
Such errors shows as RED text.<br />
You need to correct at least all codes marked as red text.
The first <a> tag isn't closed here and you open a second <a>

Lightroom only recognizing / importing ~10% of the images on my memory card, but not consistently?

Lightroom is only recognizing some images from my memory card when I import from the camera. The amount of images it recognizes on a given attempt varies (114 one time I plugged in and tried to import, 128 images another time...etc.). It's only seeing about 10% of total number of images on the card, AND the previews of the images it does see aren't working.
Any ideas? This started right after I downloaded the recent updates.
Previously I've had problems with it being slow to recognize the camera when plugged in, but this is a new one. I know the photos are still there (thank goodness) because I can flip through them on my camera.
Thanks!
Katie
Stats:
I'm on a MacBook Pro, OS X 10.9.4.
Lightroom 5, Version 5.6 (Build 974614)
Just downloaded the updates today.
Camera is a Nikon D90, a few years old.
Memory card is a SanDisk 16GB SDHC.
Things I've already tried (that haven't worked):
Restarting Lightroom
Creating a new catalogue, and importing to that
Optimizing the existing catalogue
Turning the camera on and off
Trying a new connector cables (USB to mini USB)

Hi Katie,
When you put the SDCard directly into the MacBook's memory card reader and import from there, do the pictures you expect show up in the previews?
Maybe it's the camera's USB port that is slowly giving up..
Greetings,
Simon

Is there a way to view pictures on the iPad air with Sd card

Is there a way to view pictures on the iPad air with Sd card

If you have the camera connection kit you can view thumbnails. but you can only view them full sized if you import them onto the ipad.

How to keep a copy of the image file on memory card when using tethered shooting with a Nikon D800?

I love tethered Shooting but as default (at least for Nikon) Lightroom does only save the file on the computer, not on the memory card.
Now I want to have a backup of the image file on the memory card additionally to downloading it. The tethering software digiCamControl can do this with my camera, so it is technically possible.
So how can I achieve this using Lightroom tethering?

Thanks. FWIW I'm very keen on improving tethering and lobbied Adobe endlessly until they added the overlay for shooting into layouts because it was a major reason why some of my clients were unable to switch to Lightroom from PhaseOne. But we have to be realistic and remember that tethering just isn't a key market for Adobe as it is for PhaseOne, so progress is painfully slow. For example, where is live view or setting exposure which are in PhaseOne? I'd be amazed if we get those features for a few versions, and that's why I point serious tethered shooters to other solutions. And realistically, assuming your understanding of the SDK is correct you shouldn't expect a change until the next full version of Lightroom. Good if it happens, but I wouldn't bet on it.

HT4489 How do you find out the size of a contact card?

The old Mobile Me service had lots of issues with the number of contacts you could have. Now it seems that with this info: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4489
iCloud: Limits for Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, and Bookmarks
Apple has tried to inform us about the limits you can have. None the less it does not tell you how to ( for instance) know the size of the memory taken by ( contacts). So they have given us guidance but no way to know how to use it or check it. Can anybody advice how to measure the size of contacts ( for instance).? For business users this could be important. Thanks in advance for any assistance. Guy M.

Address Book's own database will be differently structured from an exported vCard so it's not really worth tampering with that.
The vCard is a series of fields separated by line returnes, with records being separated by BEING:VCARD and END:VCARD - a typical single simple card looks like this:
BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:3.0
N:National Film Theatre;;;;
FN:National Film Theatre
ORG:National Film Theatre;
TEL;type=WORK;type=pref:020 7928 3232 booking
TEL;type=WORK:020 7928 3535 prog planning

item1.X-ABADR:gb
X-ABUID:A1345405-E248-4B2B-906B-F5AFA5BF15CB\:ABPerson
END:VCARD
As you can see it's only a small amount of data - 464 bytes - so really I don't think you need to worry about the size of any individual entry except where photos are concerned - obviously they take up a lot more room. I checked a card with a typical small photo and the size was 5,137 bytes: so only quite a large photo is going to cause you any problems.
I don't know of any way of collecting statistics on the all-contacts vCard, except that if you converted it to a tab-delimited format and imported it into a spreadsheet or database program it would tell you the number of contacts.

Im getting this error message telling me that the image buffers of size 28553 x 27787 @ 8bpc (3.0 GB

I'm new to AE, but have been able to modify projects and this is the first time, I've gotten this type of error, so I don't know how to resolve it.
I'm using an iMac, 27", 3.4 GHZ Intel Core i7, 16 GB memory, 1333 MHz DDR3, running, OS X 10.8.3. Thanks in advance.
Jose.

All the explanations you could wish for far and wide:
http://myleniumerrors.com/?s=7+%3A%3A+66&submit=Search
If you can't resolve the issue, we need info about your project. This error has nothing to do with the memory settings, it's a "bad" footage, an effect going haywire or an unsuitable output format, none of which we know anything about.

Is there a way to post an image to the Medical ID other than via the photo on my contact card, e.g. a QR Code?

Apple's Medical ID is handy because it can be shown in front of the lock screen. But it would be very helpful to allow the pasting of images like a QR code so other people looking at the Medical ID could scan that code and be directed to a website that might contain other information I would like to share. Any way to do this? The fields appear to accept text only. Is there some other way to do this with fonts?

I should have explained the use case:
Imagine a paramedic or emergency room clinician needing fast access to this information. Typing a URL is prone to error in this case, while scanning a QR code isn't, wouldn't you agree?

How do it get my app to show up with message and mail when the user press "share contact" on the iPhone

Hi Everyone
Would like to check if it is possible to let my app show up togather with message and mail app when the user clicks on "share contact" from their contact edit.
Thanks in advance.

Check that you still have the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar
* Make sure that you have the "Bookmarks Toolbar" visible: "View > Toolbars"
* Check in "View > Toolbars > Customize" that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
* If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the Customize window onto the Bookmarks Toolbar
* If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" then click the "Restore Default Set" button
