    What is upgrade or replacement for Photoshop Element 2.0 to work with Windows 7 OS?

    Hi there, because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Photoshop Elements forum, where you'll get more specialized help.

  • Does requiring authentication for external drives, via profiles, actually work?

    USB and Firewire drives still mount after applying a profile that requires authentication.  Use to work with MCXs.  Is this a known issue with ML?

    Bill-
    If all you are doing is managing 30 GB of pre-existing JPEGs in 2007 iVMP is probably superior. However I would venture a guess that you also intend to capture new images with your DSLR. For that you very much want Aperture. And IMO moving to 2008 and beyond Aperture's potential far exceeds iVMP's.
    And you did note that iVMP is now owned by MS; not good.
    Solving an entire workflow is not something easily done in a few forum paragraphs. I strongly recommend that every DSLR photog with adequate computer hardware first spend $33 and work through the tutorial CD Apple Pro Training Series: Aperture 1.5 (Apple Pro Training) by Orlando Luna and Ben Long (Paperback - Oct 18, 2006).
    Have the CD and a MacIntel with 2 GB or preferably more of RAM prior to ordering the Aperture trial so you don't waste time of the 30 day trial. Note that the value is in the tutorial, not in using the book as a manual. Due to the limited hard drive capacity, anyone with a laptop should focus on developing a "Reference Masters" workflow.
    You say JPEGs, no RAW. I would in the strongest possible terms recommend that you consider switching to a RAW workflow. In addition to allowing extraordinary post process editing, RAW image files contain much more image data. I believe that your DSLR will capture up to a dozen RAW pix before the buffer fills. Shooting JPEGs is a serious under utilization of a capable DSLR.

  • Multiple iPhoto libraries from external drive. How to work with them all

    I'm not an expert user so forgive me. But I have tons of pictures and videos of family.
    I've had to save 2 libraries on an external drive and going on my 3rd. I had to do it because the computer was running super slow and giving me warnings. Each library is about 115GB.
    Now my question is: Whats the easiest way to work with all libraries a the same time? I create slide shows and videos and often need pictures and videos that are in the different libraries..... problem being, I have to close a library, open the next, import and export photos from one to the other.......
    I think you get my point.....any suggestions are appreciated.

    Thank you again Larry.
    Unfortunately some horrible thing just happened . I was getting ready to put your advice to work and...........
    I went to verify all my libraries were in the External drive (My passport for Mac) before I did anything else.  I couldn't find the drive. I  called the company and apparently the is a problem with the drive and my only option is to try recover the data from a recovery data service....
    What did just happen???? I'm still hopeful I can recover it. and I may have a back up in another drive.
    So this is semi-related question. How many back ups of your pictures should you have to be safe? and How do I know which devices are reliable? I thought these two Mt Passports from Western Digital were ok? Any advice?

    My company uses MS Exchange with RSA SecurID. I also have an iphone 5 and i would like a good task app to manage my tasks on the go. The problem is all the task apps ive tried wont work with the SecurID. Any suggestions on a good app which will work with SecurID? thanks

    Only two devices on our plan, so not so much an issue. And I have found myself using it much more than I thought I would when we got them (also first smart phones for both of us). Even got my wife to use hers for checking email while we were out of the country (big step forward for her ). I'm very interested in the ApplePay, but will want to wait a bit before diving into it. And since both phones are still in great working order, will likely wait a bit for the upgrade (sometime next year?). Will depend, I suppose, on the kinds of deals we see and what the plans turn out to be for updating my iPad and getting here one.

  • Looking for a gaming controller that will work with iMac

    I'm not really into gaming, but I just bought a game and right now I have to use the keyboard keys and I'm finding it to be a not so enjoyable gaming experience. So I would like to purchase a gaming controller.... does anyone have any recommendations on ones that work for the IMac?
    Thanks!

    I second the logitech rumblepad 2. I have the cordless version. Works like a charm, I had a 3rd party system preference pane for changing the buttons, I used it once to set up, the buttons didn't really do what I said, could well have been me not doing it right.
    I had the 3rd part pane because I couldn't get it set up in Need For Speed Carbon, but now it works perfectly on its own.

  • Looking for a WiFi printer that will work with my Nexus WiFi hotspot

    On a recommendation, we have bought an Epson NX530 WiFi-enabled printer.  It does not work with the WiFi hotspot feature of my Galaxy Nexus.  The support tech at Epson suggested that we get a WiFi router rather than trying to use the Galaxy Nexus.  I told her that I would rather trash the NX530 and get a printer that would work with my phone.
    So we have 3 questions:
    1) does anyone know how to make an Epson NX530 work via the Galaxy Nexus hotspot?
    2) does anyone know of a different WiFi enabled printer that works with the Galaxy Nexus?
    3) does anyone know if the Galaxy Nexus is inherently unable to work with any WiFi printer?
    Thanks,
    Craig

    This website should be able to assist you.  http://www.galaxynexusforum.com/forum/galaxy-nexus-help/8520-wifi-printing.html   I use an app called Printhand from the Google Play Store for my Android tablet and smart phones. I have a Canon  Pixima 3220 that functions great. I also have a higher end HP Envy D410a that also works great with printhand.  The Canon is cheap at BJ's at $40 when I bought it. The HP is about $269 at Staples and other outlets.  Good Luck

    When syncing my ipod, how do I get it to look at external drives for music stored them?  It just tells me it can't find something and gives me no option to tell it where it is located.

    Hi SouthMountainSound,
    It sounds like the tracks may be missing from your iTunes library. When tracks in iTunes display a it means the file cannot be located; it may have been moved or deleted. If it cannot be located, this may cause the issue of not being copied to your iPod. For this issue, we will need to refer to the following article:
    iTunes: Finding lost media and downloads
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1408
    Alternatively, if your media was downloaded from the iTunes Store, you may be able to download it again free of charge:

  • Recommendation for external drive for time machine

    I just got my new iMac today, and it has a 1 TB hard drive. I've read that I need at least 1.5 TB to run Time Machine. Since the largest drive I own in 1 TB, it's time to upgrade. Suggestions for a good, stable drive that plays well with Time Machine?

    Pondini,
    Thanks. I use my computer for, among other things, photography, and tend to fill the drive. I had to move my music files to an external drive to free up space. My current computer (the one that's being replaced) has a 500 GB hard drive and almost that much data. So I'm looking for a drive that will last me as long as the computer does.
    You're going to have a choice, then, whether to get a relatively-inexpensive external, that probably won't last that long, or a relatively-expensive one that will. All hard drives fail, of course, sooner or later, and since most of us buy largely on price, the low-end externals aren't exactly bullet-proof.
    My other drives (LaCie 250 GB, used only for iTunes, and OWC 500 GB, used for back-up with SuperDuper) are Firewire, and work well.
    Is there an advantage to Time Capsule? I am still using an old Airport Extreme given to me by a friend years ago. Does it warrant replacing, or is Time Capsule an unnecessary expenditure?
    Wireless is fairly slow, but TM can back-up without having a drive physically attached, so it's a bit of a trade-off.
    A Time Capsule, of course, is a combination wireless router and disk drive. So if you already have a reliable router, it may not make sense to get another one. I've never had a TC, but prefer a separate Airport Extreme and external disk drive for it; when the drive fails, I can just get a new one.
    Depending on which Mac(s) you're talking about, there may be another solution as well. If you're going to have both an iMac and a laptop, you can share a drive on the iMac with the laptop. Thus the iMac can back-up directly, and the laptop wirelessly (both have to be running Leopard or Snow, of course, and be on the same local network).
    Just for comparison, doing a small (about 30 gb) full backup, I get about 40 gb/hr via F/W 400 or USB; about 21 gb/hr to a USB disk on my AEBS via Ethernet; about 13 gb/hr wirelessly. That all varies greatly, of course, depending on load, contention, interference, etc.
    And you can do the large initial backup via Ethernet, then shift to wireless. There's also a fairly involved procedure where you can do the first directly-attached, then change, but it's a bit tricky and involves a lot of back and forth.

  • Will a External 5.25" Floppy Disc Drive - A9M0104 or A9M0107 work with my Macintosh IIcx ?

    will a External 5.25" Floppy Disc Drive - A9M0104 or A9M0107 work with my Macintosh IIcx ? please help.
    a million thanks in advance!
    jack

    Hello jack,
    If you so wish, it is possible to use another Mac, or even a Windows PC, to download freeware/shareware programs from the Internet. You could carry out transfers to the Macintosh IIcx on 1.44 MB HD diskettes. Pre-1998 Macs had internal floppy drives. Until about 5-10 years ago, so had many Windows PCs.
    If you are using Mac-formatted 1.44 MB floppy disks (which can be read directly by System 7.0.1 on the IIcx), you would need a utility for the handling of Mac disks (such as TransMac) on a Windows PC.
    If you have access to the 7.0.1 system disks, you could also look for a program called Apple File Exchange on the Tidbits floppy. This program allows PC-formatted floppies to be read on the IIcx.
    Keep all downloaded files as they are (.bin, .hqx or .sit) until on the IIcx. Do not try to decode or decompress anything earlier. Once on the IIcx, use Stuffit Expander to decode/decompress (drag the files onto the StuffIt Expander program icon or open from within the utility).
    Without access to an older StuffIt Expander version, you may want to try the method described below:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/21898244#21898244

    Apple seems to be naming their operating sytems usability based on the respective turd size of the feline in question. Lions are big, very, very, very big.
    I had a system that served me well for 2 years until I mistaking bought a new machine which runs mega-turd (Lion). Foolish me, now nothing works properly, its a daily struggle to get anything working smoothly using my NEW mac mini. All my other machines work fine, even the windows machines and my Android tablet see all the network components and can talk to each other.
    My Internet service is over 3g which I share to the house using internet sharing via my brand new €800 mac mini running POS Lion, everytime the service is interrupted, Kaboom, the mini resets the DHCP server, but doesn't seem to refresh any of the components so connections drop everywhere.
    Its amateur hour at Apple folks.
    There are several posts alone relating to internet sharing, I have submitted a bug report relating to the non user controllable DHCP server (which may be at fault), but the response / solution from Apple was lacklustre and ultimately didn't work.
    See this, there are some work around's in there;

    AFAIK, no one makes an add on camera for the iPad1.  If selling your iPad1 and buying an iPad2 is out, then you can use Skype on the iPad1.  Although the other person won't see you, the iPad1 will receive Skype video so you can see them, if they enable their video.

    Hi dad,
    Drivers for Windows 7 are not available for this model. While considering the desire to provide the best possible support for Canon's current products, Canon must make decisions on which products to support when new operating systems are introduced. These decisions are generally based on the age of the product and the number of product estimated to be still in use.

This option allows you a one-time opportunity to purchase a new or refurbished product that uses Canon’s next generation technology and carries a limited manufacturer’s warranty.
