Merged two libraries. new one is smaller than the largest one!

I merged two iPhoto libraries using iPhoto Library Manager. One library had 6299 pics and the other had 178. The new one has 6474 pics (short of 3 photographs). The deal is that my library with 6299 is 33gb and my new library with 6474 pics is 31 gbs!
have i lost something crucial?

You merged two libraries into a third, new one? Most likely there's no caches developed yet. Sync with a phone or iPod and see what happens then.

    OK, you pretty good at taking apart headphones & then replacing any damaged components? Got a good source to order the parts? If so, have at it.
    On the other hand, you can purchase any headphones you like. Apple's new headphones are US $29:

  • Copied folder smaller than the original one

    Hi, when I copy my folder of Logic song material (size approx. 4,55 GB, located on the desk) to an external Harddisk (WD ´my book´, I guess Fat32, brandnew and not formatted under OS X) or via my inhouse network (on a windows PC with NTFS), the copied folder is smaller than the original one - approx. 4,2 or 4,3 GB then.
    Is that normal or are files lost during the copying? I need help with this urgently, because I have to do the backup.
    My system: PowerMac G5 Dual, 2,5 GHz, 3 GB RAM, Tiger (newest version), nothing special.
    Thank you für your help,

    Is that normal or are files lost during the copying? I need help with this urgently, because I have to do the backup.Copying can certainly reduce the space taken, because fragmentation is reduced.
    If you want a one off count of your folder, you can do this:
    Open the Terminal (from /Applications/Utilities) and type
    cdNow type a space, and then drag the folder you are interested in to the Terminal window. It will fill in the path automatically, so you will see something like
    cd /Users/jdoe/Documentsfor example. Now type a return, and then copy and paste the following, as one line, into the Terminal window:
    <pre>echo "`find . -type f \! -name ".*" | wc -l` files and `find . -type d | wc -l` folders"</pre>Now press return, and wait!
    As an indication, for my Home folder it takes about 35 seconds on a 600MHz iBook (slow drives in these laptops) to tell me I have 16631 files and 3920 folders. The command does not count dotfiles, such as ".DS_Store", deliberately, so there may be small discrepancies.

  • Aperture library smaller than the iPhoto one

    Hi !
    I just moved from iPhoto to Aperture. I imported my iPhoto library and everything seemed to be ok. Then i noticed one thing that bothers me : my Aperture library is much smaller in size than my iPhoto library (130 Go and 180 Go).
    Is it normal ?
    Thanks by advance for your answers,
    Nicolas

    How did you import your iPhoto Library? With "File -> Import -> iPhoto Library"? Or did you import selected items using the iPhoto Browser?
    If your masters are referenced and stored outside the Aperture Library (either on an external volume or even referenced still inside your iPhoto Library) then these numbers are o.k.
    But if you imported the complete iPhoto Library storing managed masters inside your Aperture Library, then the resulting Aperture Library should be slightly larger than the iPhoto Library, since Aperture initially stores all master files and edites versions from iPhoto, plus new thumbnails and previews. So if you imported your iPhoto Library completely as managed Library, than it is likely that some images are missing, unless you have many duplicates in your iPhoto Library.
    In the long run Aperture stores images much more efficiently then iPhoto, since it does not actually create version images, it only stores the settings how to compute the versions, when a version will be exported. For newly imported images you will notice that Aperture requires less space to store these imports and versions than iPhoto.

  • I have had to do a system recovery on my desktop computer.  In re-installing iTunes, I am told that I have two libraries.  How do I access the old one.

    I have had to do a system recovery on my desktop computer and it was 'wiped'.  iTunes had to be reinstalled.  However, I can't access my old library.  I am told that there are now two of them.  I need to get to the old one.

    I had to wipe my computer clean and I had backed up my I tunes on an external hard drive, but I also had all my music on my Ipod.  Now that I reinstalled Itunes, it can't locate all my music that I have on my ipod.  Did you find a way to do this?  Please help if you have a solution.
    Thanks

  • Merge two libraries

    Is there a way to merge two libraries ?
    On my MBPro I have one iTunes library. On my MacPro another.
    There's some cross over of music, but a lot of difference too between them.
    Can I merge the two library files (on my external terabyte drive) and import the one large library file to iTunes on both mac's ?

    Drag one of the two libraries to the external drive, launch iTunes on that computer with the Option key held down, and point it to that instance of the library. On the other computer, point iTunes to the library on the external drive and then drag the internal library into the open iTunes window.

  • I have chosen to fil migrate from old ibook to new MacBook Pro using Time Machine after establishing admin account. I now have two admin. accounts and wish to delete the later one and transfer files manually. I am worried I will loose both accounts. ??

    I have chosen to fil migrate from old ibook to new MacBook Pro using Time Machine after establishing admin account. I now have two admin. accounts and wish to delete the later one and transfer files manually. I am worried I will loose both accounts. ??

    Use the Office for Mac and ignore using Parallels for that. If you have PC only apps you have to run that are MS Windows only then consider Parallels. Just transfer your main PC, using Migration Assistant.  If you don't know how then simply read over Pondini's article called Lion or Mountain Lion Setup Assistant tips and look for the section on migrating from a PC. Millions have done what you are about to, it's far from leading edge these days, if you go to an Apple Store to purchase they will offer this as a service, something you might be interested in.

    Hi talero,
    Contact AppleCare or bring it into an Apple Store or AASP.

  • After an erroneous contacts delete on the mac, they've been removed from icloud and all the synced devices. I was able to restore the contacts from a backup, but since the iCloud version is newer than the backuped one, they are deleted every iCloud sync

    After an erroneous contacts delete on the mac, they've been removed from iCloud and all the synced devices.
    I was able to restore the contacts from a backup, but since the iCloud version is newer than the backuped one, they are deleted every iCloud sync.
    Now I have an iPhone with the contacts and iCloud deactivated, but I lost all the contacts on the Mac and the iPad.
    There is a way to tell iCloud "restart using the contacts I have on this device"?

    An iCloud backup will save the state of your Camera Roll at the time of the backup but, if you delete photos from the Camera Roll, they will not be in the next backup taken.
    If you are using the iCloud Photo Library (beta) read this FAQ which will tell you what happens when you delete photos from one of the devices sharing the Photo Library.
    iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support
    The relevant section is:
    How does iCloud delete photos and videos from iCloud Photo Library?
    Deleting a photo or video from your Photos app will also remove the item from iCloud Photo Library and from your iCloud storage allocation. Photos and videos you remove can be recovered from the Recently Deleted album for 30 days. After 30 days, your content will be removed from the Recently Deleted album. Photos are backed up on our servers for up to 30 days after they're deleted from the Photos app. If you need to recover these photos during that time, contact Apple Support.

    No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
    As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

  • Why Is My Snapshot Smaller Than The Webcam?

    I am trying to make a snapshot of the users webcam, but the snapshot is 1/4 the size of the running webcam and doesn't fill the bitmap data section. Also is there a better way I can Add and position the snapshot.?
    import flash.display.BitmapData;
    import flash.display.DisplayObject;
    var bandwidth:int = 0; // Specifies the maximum amount of bandwidth that the current outgoing video feed can use, in bytes per second. To specify that Flash Player video can use as much bandwidth as needed to maintain the value of quality , pass 0 for bandwidth . The default value is 16384.
    var quality:int = 100; // this value is 0-100 with 1 being the lowest quality. Pass 0 if you want the quality to vary to keep better framerates
    var cam:Camera = Camera.getCamera();
    cam.setQuality(bandwidth, quality);
    cam.setMode(320,240,30,false); // setMode(videoWidth, videoHeight, video fps, favor area)
    video_vobj.attachCamera(cam);
    stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, takephoto);
    var screenS:BitmapData = new BitmapData(320, 240, true, 0xCCCCCCCC);
    var screenS_image:Bitmap=new Bitmap(screenS);
    function takephoto(e:MouseEvent):void
    screenS.draw(video_vobj) ;
    addChild(screenS_image) ;
    screenS_image.x = 360;
    screenS_image.y = 20;

    OK…I purchased and downloaded Elements 9.0 for my MACs ( I have two in two different locations).  I installed on both and the brushes work as expected on one of them but not the other.  Guess that is why I asked about a reinstall….possibly something went wrong on this computer when installed.
    I am just trying to create an image for a background paper and have selected a brush.  I resize it with the bracket key (and have also tried resizing with the slider on the menu up top).  I hover the brush over the area I want to place it and then click.  The brush is smaller than the hover image every time.   Makes it hard to know where to lace my brush for proper placement.  As far as the percentage…..that actually is a guesstimate, but it isn't 50% smaller that's for sure.

  • Why is my "Combined PDF" file size smaller than the original files?

    Hello!
    I am trying to combine two individual PDF files into a single PDF. Each file is 32mb, however when I use acrobat to combine them, the newly created "combined" file is only 19mb. I believe I've taken the necessary steps to ensure no degradation is happening (i.e. selecting Large File Size in the options panel), but I am still puzzled as to how two files can be put together as one and be smaller than the two separate files with out any compression. What am I missing?
    Thanks in advance!

    When you combine a file it does a "Save As" operation.  This re-writes all of the PDF object in the single file and is supposed to clean up the file, whereas the single files may have had multiple saves which when you look at the internals of the PDF file simply add on to the end of the file.  In other words you get a more cleanly written and optimized file that is also saved for Fast Web View.

  • Two http ports - one in 8080 and the other one in 3034 - How to remove 8080

    Hi!
    I have two http ports - one in 8080 and the other one in 3034 - How to remove 8080.
    Listening Endpoints Summary...
    (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=<ip address>)(PORT=<port number>)))
    (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=<hotname>)(PORT=3034))(Presentation=HTTP)(Session=RAW))
    (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=<hotname>)(PORT=2102))(Presentation=FTP)(Session=RAW))
    (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=<hotname>)(PORT=8080))(Presentation=HTTP)(Session=RAW))
    Services Summary...

    You get check which is the current dedicated HTTP port by using DBMS_XDB.getHTTPPort(). There can be only HTTP port active per database (not taken into account the HTTPs one). If two or more exists than there is still a process claiming that port (in this case 8080). It will be cleaned up after one or more processes are not claiming that port again. New connections will be redirected to the new port.

  • I need to force column widths to values smaller than the indesign preset minimuns (1,058mm).

    Jongware provided two ideas for forcing a table's rows and columns into heights and widths smaller than the Indesign preset 1.058mm.
    For rows: app.selection[0].properties = {autoGrow:false, height:"0.5mm"};
    And for columns he sugested: app.selection[0].width = "0.5mm";
    The problem is that while the code for rows works perfectly, the one for columns returns an error "Expected Unit, but received 0.5mm" I'm running Indesign cs6. Anyone has any insights to help fixing such script, or maybe some different approach? Thanks!

    If the cell's insets are all set to 0, I have no problem with Jongware's code.
    But this was InDesign CS5.5.
    With CS6 v8.0.2 there will be an error!
    app.selection[0].cells.everyItem().width = "0.5 mm"; //ERROR in CS6, will work in CS5.5
    Or will fail silently for the setting a value for width , if more than one property, the width, is applied over:
    app.selection[0].cells.everyItem().properties = {autoGrow:false, width:"0.5 mm", height:"0.5 mm"};

  • TS3297 iTunes puts up a message "The item you've requested is not currently available in the Hong Kong Store." I had not requested anything from the HK store at that point, and I have never used any store other than the HK one. How I can clear that messag

    I've been running iTunes on WinXP for years with few problems.  I have all my iTunes files on an external USB drive. I just bought a new PC running Win7, 64-bit.
    I connected the external USB drive to the new PC and installed 64-bit iTunes on it. When iTunes started up, I pointed it at the iTunes directory in the external drive, using Edit > Preferences > Advanced > iTunes Media Folder Location. It showed a progress bar that it was updating the iTunes Library. I signed in and authorized the new machine. I have one spare authorization.
    Then iTunes put up a message "The item you've requested is not currently available in the Hong Kong Store." I had not requested anything from the HK store at that point, and I have never used any store other than the HK one.
    When I click OK, the iTunes Store page remains blank, apart from saying "iTunes Store" in the middle of the page.
    I went to "View My Account" and pressed the Reset button to "Reset all warnings for buying and downloading items", but that doesn’t fix this particular warning. I also tried Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Reset Warnings and Rest Cache.
    But still, every time I click the “App Store” button in the iTunes Store window, the message appears. If I click the Books, Podcasts or iTunesU buttons, these display normally.  So I’m stuck with being unable to purchase apps, other than through my iPad and iPhone.
    If I move the external drive back to the XP machine, the same thing happens.  If I go to another PC - a notebook running Vista - everything is normal.
    Any idea how I can clear that message?
    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Further info on my question above.
    I have tried re-validating my credit card, which apparently fixed it for some. 
    I have also tried uninstalling, re-downloading and installing again.
    Neither of these steps fixed the problem.
