Major change to previews in 3.5?

Ok did I miss the memo or have I been in front of the computer for to long?
For another post here I started looking into previews and started seeing some different behavior between 3.5 and earlier versions This sound crazy but I don;t think Aperture is using the Preview folder and its contents anymore.
The first hint came with the wording in the Previews Preference for sharing. It is no longer share the preview but share the XML. Then I try dragging an image out of Aperture which always resulted in a small file size depending on the Previews setting in Preferences. With 3.5 I am seeing full sized files when I drag out regardless of the preview setting.
Then I started deleting previews which caused the preview file to be removed from the library but when I regenerate the preview no new file appears in the Previews folder. In addition even after deleting the preview when you select update preview Aperture reports the preview is up-to-date. This after it was deleted.
Finally I deleted the whole preview folder, Aperture didn't burp or regenerate the folder either.
This is with managed originals. Haven't tried it yet with referenced originals off-line. That should be interesting.
Can someone else look at this and let me know if I need a long vacation

I'm cross posting to this thread to see if others are noticing the same behavior as me.
The biggest kerfuffle is the full size images coming out of the media browser in other apps, as noted below.
Without forcing Aperture to create a new preview by slightly adjusting the image, Aperture serves up a full size master file in other applications using media browser or in Drag-and-Drop. Most unfortunate!!!
For years I've been organizing my library in Aperture, and dragging thumbnails to the desktop for quick PDFs and 1-off emails.
This worked with RAW images AND .PSD files, adjusted or un-adjusted. I would always drag out a preview .jpg version of the image to the desktop.
In ver 3.5, when I drag a managed PSD file's thumbnail to the desktop, it copies the full PSD file!
If I make any adjustment to the file, even adjusting exposure and then re-settting it to 0, then the image preview will be transferred, but for straight files, it copies the Master to the desktop.
I've tried updating previews, deleting and re-generating previews to no avail. All preferences are identical, and when I switch back to my older library, the previews drag correctly. It's just the new library, created with the newest version of Aperture, that seems to work incorrectly.
I say "incorrectly" because Apple documentation states that the preview should be copied, not the original.
UPON FURTHER EXPERIMENTATION.. I realize that the original Master PDF is being used as the share between iPhoto, Mail, etc. When I drag from the Media Browser in Mail, I get the full PDF, not a Preview.
Major pain, in my opinion, and I wonder if anyone at Apple realizes that the full file is being shared.

SOA Suite 10g and SOA Suite 11g? what are the major changes in these two?

Hi Experts,
I am keen in knowing about Soa Suite 11g. SOA Suite 10g and SOA Suite 11g, BPEL changes? what are the major changes in these two product/tool wise? Is now OSB is part of Soa Suite 11g? it would be helpful for us to know what are the major changes and updates or modifications came in 11g.
Please share this valuable information.
Is there still any version is in progress from Oracle, which is yet to be officially launched from oracle?

what are the major changes in these two product/tool wise? Few major changes to enlist are that SOA suite 10g was using Oracle Application Server (OC4J) however 11g is on Weblogic and 11g is based on SCA. B2B is now part of SOA suite itself and OSB can share a domain with SOA. You may refer below link to know few more -

Upgrade from BW 3.5 to BW 7.0 (BI 7.0)
Some of the other features of BI 7 are
1. In Infosets now you can include Infocubes as well.
2. The Remodeling transaction helps you add new key figure and characteristics and handles historical data as well without much hassle. This is only for info cube.
3. The BI accelerator (for now only for infocubes) helps in reducing query run time by almost a factor of 10 - 100. This BI accl is a separate box and would cost more. Vendors for these would be HP or IBM.
4. The monitoring has been imprvoed with a new portal based cockpit. Which means you would need to have an EP guy in ur project for implementing the portal !
5. Search functionality hass improved!! You can search any object. Not like 3.5
6. Transformations are in and routines are passe! Yess, you can always revert to the old transactions too.
this is a good PDF on Upgrade from BW 3.5 to BW 7.0

How can I change the preview in imessage on a mac, when notifing me?

how can I change the preview in imessage on a mac, when notifing me?
I want it not to preview, just to show me the name of the person sending me the message, not the name of the person sending the message and the message they wrote.

While we all have MacBooks in this forum not all of us use iMessage. There's an iMessage Support Community where everybody uses iMessage. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

Font Change in Preview mode

The font I used while editing a cp4 slide changes when previewed in the web browser. This does not happen with other slides in my project. What can i do to prevent this?

Hi there
It might help if you could please insert images of what you see in each view. Perhaps by seeing what you are describing we might understand what may be happening.
Use the camera icon please. If you don't know what I'm referring to, click here and read the thread.

How to change file preview in Finder?

So I just finished my latest short film, and I exported it to Finder. However I don't like the preview Finder chose for my video, it simply chose a random frame from my video and made that the preview of the file. I have a custom poster I made for the video I would like to make the preview of the file. I've look at other websites and they all mistook "preview" for icons. I am not talking about the icon of the file, I am talking about the actual preview of the file. If you open the Info pane of an image or a video file, there will be a tab under "Open With" named "Preview" and shows the preview thumbnail for the file. Can anyone tell me how I can manually change the preview of a file? I thought about importing the video into iTunes, change the cover art and take it out again, however because the file is encoded with Apple ProRes 4444 iTunes won't accept it and even if it did it would have been converted to other format, which is something I am trying to avoid and I would like to keep it ProRes 4444.

Hi!
I'm not sure how to change the preveiw icon, but if you're just looking for a quick way to change the icon preview of that particular file you could always change the the icon from the finder get info window:

Hope this gives you a temporary solution until you find what you're looking for.

How to change .mp3 preview icon to album art

It may be silly but I was wondering how you can change the preview icon of my music to the album art of the songs..
When you go onto Finder and youre on the "all my files" tab, most of my songs have a music note for an icon and I'd like to change that to the album art! Anyone know how!?

Click the Firefox button, go to Options | Options | General and in the Downloads menu, checkmark the radio button called "'''Always ask me where to save files'''". See screenshot.

Can i change the preview background color?

Hi
can i change the preview background color?
it's gray , may i change it?
thanks
i use bridge cs6

can i change the preview background color?
Yes you can do so in the Bridge preferences under general both Ui interface and image backdrop can be changed
In the same preferences Cache you can change the location of the central cache to where ever you will. But you have to realize that if you use an external disk this can cause all kinds of problems regarding speed, performance and permission issues. best to keep it on an internal disk and having an SSD available will be even better because you will benefit from performance and speed very much.
it's gray , may i change it?
As long as you have a legal version and it is able to change then feel free to set it to your own custom wishes...

I have to select a file – get Info – and change – open with and change from preview to another program and CHANGE ALL everytime I boot up

Why do I have to select a file – get Info – select – open with – and change from Preview to another program and click CHANGE ALL with every file extention everytime I boot up.

Back up all data.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -Rh $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
The first step should give you usable permissions in your home folder. This step will restore special attributes set by OS X on some user folders to protect them from unintended deletion or renaming. You can skip this step if you don't consider that protection to be necessary.
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
resetpassword
That's one word, all lower case, with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Making Major Changes; test vs backup site

Hi, I need to make major changes to the site and want to
upload them to a test site where others can view and comment before
putting on main site. I have a location for a test server. How do I
upload to this? Is this the "testing Server" in the site
definintion? .. How do I upload to this? Thanks, Suz

Hi Ondrej,
I am still not convinced there is no bug in the code...I believe I clarified why this is not a bug, but nevertheless I can take another shot.
b) the changes with enables tests don't really affect anything and the #ifdef in db.h is EXTRACorrect, we do not touch / affect / corrupt the environment (the environment region files). You could call it "extra", but not in the sense of useless.
Here is an excerpt from the Configuring Berkeley DB section in the Building Berkeley DB for UNIX/POSIX guide for the --enable-test argument:
--enable-test
To build the Berkeley DB test suite, enter --enable-test as an argument to configure. To run the Berkeley DB test suite, you must also build the Tcl API. This argument should not be specified when configuring to build production binaries.
So, we clearly mention that this option should not be used for libraries deployed into production environments.
The test system, that is, enabling the test suite, is useful to initially determine if the Berkeley DB library, built with specific options (for example, mutex implementation) works correctly in a certain environment (a particular platform, OS etc). After you finish developing your application and want to distribute it, you should distribute with libraries that have not been built with testing enabled (nor debugging, which is obvious, nor diagnostics).
I suggest you remove the #ifdef CONFIG_TEST from db.h entirely in next major release, so you don't change API/ABI on --enable/disable-test configure option. Or better move it to some private structures so it doesn't get exported to the public API at all.Thanks for this suggestion; we will consider it (the changes should be fairly simple to do).
Regards,
Andrei

Color changes in preview

Hello, I'm so tired trying to figure out the reason of a problem in Premiere Pro (my version is 6.0.4). I'm very frustrated just because I've spent too much time trying to solve the problem which is so ridiculous! What I'm doing is just trying to color corect my footage with the help of Color Finesse plugin. The problem is that I can see different results in full screen Color Finesse preview and PP windows preview. Sure you could kick me off this forum saying that it's not Premiere Pro but 3-d party plugin problem but I want to tell you that it's not!
The point is that I can see the right result of the color correction in Premiere Pro when I'm scrolling the preview unless I mouse up to stop the timeline cursor being dragged. Once I just mouse up the image in preview changes! I even set up the similar options of resolution for playback and pause in preview but I still can see the same issue. I also tried to change the sequence options of preview rendering (max bit depth, max rendering quality) but all in vain. I surely get this result when exporting - it seems that PP use in this situation the same rendering engine as what is shown in preview when the cursor stops.
But what really confuses me that in dragging timeline cursor mode I can see the proper colors that I made with Color Finesse! Isn't it an issue?! Haven't anybody noticed anything similar? The image in my case seems to be more red and whites are cut. I thought that there is might be some problems with color spaces but I just don't know what to do in Premiere! I tried to color correct my footage in After Effects with the same Color Finesse settings and then export it - everything is ok with colors! But not in premiere! By the way in both cases of exporting (premiere, after effects) I can see that the result image is in YUV color space with chroma subsampling 4:2:0, 8 bits, progressive though I choose RGB in After Effects when exporting (I can see it in Media Player Classic's properties of the footage).
Please, can anyone help me with this issue or is it really an Adobe Premiere bug?
I thought that there are some problems with color spaces and tried to watch YC waveform. But I guess that my original footage was even worse in it though I can not see any issues or color cutting with my original footage in premiere pro window. Color finesse window show another results. What's happening?...

Thank you, Bob, for answering. And I would also would like to thank you for creating such a convenient instrument for After Effects (cause you see - I seem to can not use it under premiere pro).
I guessed that in dragging mode PPro tried to optimise rendering in different ways clipping it from all the sides etc. But the problem is that all is vice versa: I do like the result in dragging mode and it's the same as in full Color Cinesse instrument and I can see clipping in stop cursor preview mode. Unfortunately there is no any difference on Ppro YCwaveform in this two modes (dragging, stop cursor) so I have to load images from footages (from Composite Video view).
That's why It does not help that the result I see in PPro when not dragging is what will render to my final output (maybe I'm wrong, maybe highlights are not cut but just more reddish...but I can feel more difference in video - the first one looks much better).
Do I correctly understand that dragging mode differs from stopping not just in that 8-bit image is handed instead of 32-bit but also that the first one is RGB but the second one is YUV (there are no YUV modes in Color Finesse full interface in some reason)? So is it possible that clipping happens with 32-bit YUV image? We could test your plugin by feeding it my original video footage (you should test it in PPro) - if you wish - and you could see - why there is difference (I understand that it may take some time so I seem to not wait to the results and find another way of color correcting though I very much like Color Finesse).
So - I'm sorry. In this case the problem seems to be exactly in Color Finesse? But anyway I don't understand why not implement Color Management in PPro such as it's done in After Effects or maybe even better by having several options. I think that sometimes you'd better have several options instead having no ability to do something.
P.S. Bob, I also have a suggestion for your plugin - it's kind of UI improvement. It's a good idea to have the ability to reset each option (each slider) by just double clicking on it's name just as it's done in Lightroom.

How do I change the preview cache disk?

I keep seeing statements such as "there is nothing to stop
you from locating the preview cache on another disk". Um.. there is a problem.
I find no option to do it anywhere. In catalog settings it only "Shows" the location and does not allow changing it. Am I missing something? I have looked and looked and the process is described nowhere. It is very frustrating because I can find these things on my own quite readily and in LR its totally buried if its possible at all.
Also;
How can I change the default camera calibration from the ACR 4.4 to Adobe standard ? The first thing I have to do after every import is go back and sync to a different camera profile.
Thanks in advance for any help

In order that you can change the camera default profile you must be in the Develop module then change the profile to Adobe Standard. Next, choose Default Settings from Develop module. When the dialog appears you should click on Update to Current Settings...
It's not possible to change the location of the library preview cache because it must be in the same folder as the catalog. However, changing the Camera Raw preview cache (used by Develop module) location is done through Preferences. The following screen shot shows you where to make the change.

It' s possible to change size previews in Iphoto ???

i have mac book pro 2 GH, 8 GB, 128 SSD ... i use my HHD for every day work ... for the first time (i have a library of 25.000 photos), after my last travel i saved my photos in a external HHD trying to use Iphoto but is not possible for this reason: i edited some images in iPhoto, i have seen that the edited version is saved in the iPhoto library in previews and now my hhd is full !!! ... so i have to move my library in an external disk ??? ... or maybe is better to use lightroom ...

No you can't change the size of the Previews. Yes you can easily run a library from an external disk:
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

Change Flashdrive Preview Image

There a way to change the con of the flashdrive as it appears on the desktop? The icon is a little boring and i want to change it to a custom image of mine. Help?

Figured it out for anyone who wants to know. Open the image you want in Preview and use the select to tool to select the WHOLE image. Hit Apple+C to copy and switch over to your folder, or whatever else. Hit Apple+I to "Get Info." In the top left corner there should be a small image. The same image as the big "Preview Image" below it. Select the small picture in the top-left corner. It should have a blue outline. Hit Apple+V to paste. Your preview image should have changed. If not reply to this and I'll try to let you know why it is not working.
