Messed with library folders in "pictures" application

While trying to find some pictures in the "iphoto library" within the "pictures" folder in applications, I renamed and deleted what I thought were arbitrary or blank folders. After this changed all of my thumbnails in iphoto to blanks, I learned that you are not supposed to mess with the folders in either library. Too late. How do I get them back? The pictures are still in the "pictures" iphoto library within applications, but not in my iphoto program on my desktop. HELP!

The reason I went in and changed names and such was to more easily find the photos to attach in an email or to upload to a photo site.
There is a much better way to do this than fishing around in the iPhoto Library folder.
Use iPhoto to select the photos for your email (or to upload to a website, or to burn to disc for printing). Then Export the photos to a folder on your desktop. During the export you can also resize them, to make them smaller for email or websites. You can also have the exports renamed by the iPhoto title or album name. Use the exported copies to attach to your email or website. When you're done you can delete the desktop copies, as the full-sized files are still safe inside your iPhoto library.

Fixing a Messed-With Library

I tried in August to make a slide show out of an album, noticed that some of the photos were not actually appearing, and the slide show won't start. Just now getting around to fixing it, found a notice that it is not OK to mess with the data in my iPhoto library, as it will make images not show up. Needless to say, I have messed with the data, now how do I go about fixing it? I renamed stuff, probably moved it around, all of the things you aren't supposed to do. Now what?

Can iPhoto mess with my LR4 library?

Can I let my kids use iphoto or will it mess with the Library on LR4?
How do the two interact?
Thanks.

Bug with swc folders and library projects?

Hi guys, hope someone can help here. We are just in the
process of starting a fairly large flex project and we were trying
to work out a solution so that I as a designer can view and edit
custom components with visual styles applied.
Now I know that you aren't meant to add a style tag into the
component but it was working for me and I could at least preview
the styles in 'design mode'.
The problem arises though when you have a large project with
shared assets across projects. I had 3 projects set up in my
workspace:
Project 1: Library project with css files, swc and graphics
Project 2: Library project with components for Project 3
Application
Project 3: Application project
What I did was to add a external source folder to Project 2
& 3 both of which was Project 1. So far so good, the css loaded
into my application from Project 1 and I could view my styles in my
custom componants in Project 2
But, I needed to add swc files for custom buttons etc in my
application. So, I thought I would just add an swc folder source to
my build path in both my Project 2 & 3 which referenced an swc
folder in Project 1. Well, it did work and I could view everything
fine but (and here is the main problem) this corrupts the
workspace. Once Flex has closed and tries to reopen my workspace it
hangs, same if I change workspace in Flex from another workspace to
this one.
Can anyone help? Is this a flex bug?
TIA
Steve

Issue with Enterprise Library's Data Access Application

I do not know if I have the correct forum for this post. I hve put it in what I believe is the most likely best forum, but please move this if there is a more germane forum for it.
I have inherited a solution (C#) which uses the reference Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Data. The reference was included with the codebase I inherited, there are no missing references.
When the library is called with:
Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Data.ExecuteDataSet("configConfigurationKeysSelect", parameterValues);
It complains with the runtime error:
[InvalidOperationException: The stored procedure 'configConfigurationKeysSelect' doesn't exist.] (I have put the full trace below)
This is true, there IS no stored procedure  'configConfigurationKeysSelect' but there is a table named  'configConfigurationKeys.'
I assumed this stored procedure is built on the fly to select from that table? Must I do something regarding  Enterprise Library's Data Access Application so that this works on the system I am running it on? (I am simply accessing the references
included with the sourced for this, nothing else). I am looking for some guidance here, and thanks in advance.

Why do you assume that a stored procedure is create on the fly? Looking at the documentation for this component, I don't see a mention of such.

I need to backup all the music on my nano - my library is a mess with all my kids music

I am sending in my 1st generation ipod nano for battery replacement. I need to back up all the music on my nano. My library is a huge mess with all of my kids music. How do I just get everything on my nano in a playlist without getting mixed in the library mess?

You will need to use a third-party program, you computer's iTunes can only copy iTunes purchases back (File > Transfer Purchases, File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11). There are a number of programs listed half-way down this page which you could try : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

Same podcasts with 2 folders in my library

I know the exact same thing has been asked previously, but the question has not been answered and appears as "archived" (original thread from April 2008).
For some reason I have two collapsable folder for one series of podcasts in my library. I will have the 30 or so podcasts in one folder and about 5 podcasts in under the same name but a different folder. If I go to where they are located on my hard drive, the podcast are all in the same folder. I checked the informations (get info) and it's identical, except the episode number of course. I know that I can create a smart playlist, but what I want is to simply merge the two collapsable folders into one, as they are part of the same series. The podcast have been downloaded directly through iTunes. I am using iTunes 10.6

Bump ... I've had this same problem for a long time and now it's getting way out of hand. No matter what fields I change, I have one podcast that is listed as 4 collapsible folders in my podcast library in the itunes application; each folder has different episodes so none are duplicates. However, looking on my HD where the actual files are stored, all songs (from each of the 4 instances) are stored the same folder. How can I get them to display under one single header in iTunes? Thanks.

"Library.lvlib on Main Application Instance" Window Title, is this Lib still associated with previous project?

Hey folks,
Hopefully this is a quick and easy one- I have a device that I already have a driver for which was placed into a lvlib along with the subvi's inside the driver (etc etc). This lvlib was put together while I was working on a past project which I think was called "Main Application".
I'm new to lvlibs I guess, I just want to know if there is some sort of association between this lib and the old project I had, because after saving as, in a new location, opening up the lvlib shows the lib windows that says "Library.lvlib on Main Application Instance"...
Can anyone confirm that this is normal? Does this title show up on all lvlibs regardless of where it's used?
thanks!

(sry about multiple username issue I have going, I'm the original poster)
I haven't had a chance to test it yet, I'm still working on the project that it's going to be implemented in... Talking to a few other people at work I think it's normal.
Thx

Using Windows 7 and LR 5 when I look at the Keyword List a certain keyword has 7 pictures but when I check the Library Filter with that keyword 350 pictures are shown which includes the 7 pictures that have the keyword. Why does the Library Filter showi

Using Windows 7 and LR 5, when I look at the Keyword List a certain keyword has 7 pictures but when I check the Library Filter with that keyword 350 pictures are shown which includes the 7 pictures that have the keyword. Why does the Library Filter showing pictures that do not match the query

Dan,
Here's what's going on in the catalog you sent me, "Joel & Caitlin's Wedding". There is the keyword "gwenn", which is explicitly assigned to 7 pics. But keyword "schwartz" has a number of synonyms, including "gwenn", and it is assigned to 25 pics. There is no overlap between the two sets of pics.
I discovered these two occurrences by doing Metadata > Export Keywords, opening the exported file in an editor, and then searching for "gwenn". I found two occurrences of "gwenn":
gwenn
schwartz
{gwenn}
From this, you can see that the keyword "schwartz" has 9 synonyms, of which "gwenn" is one.
The filter criterion "Keywords Contain gwenn" will match the 7 pics that are explicitly assigned the keyword "gwenn", and it will also match the 25 pics assigned the keyword "schwartz", because that keyword has a synonym "gwenn".
This illustrates the behavior I mentioned above: The criterion "Keywords contains x" will match against any of a pic's assigned keywords, any of those keywords' ancestor keywords, and any of the synonyms of the assigned keywords and their ancestors.
So LR is operating correctly here, if not in a way that's easy to understand.
It appears that you are using the synonyms of "schwartz" to represent individual members of the Schwartz family. A better way of representing family relationships is to have a parent keyword "Schwartz", with subkeywords for each family member, e.g. "Gwenn Schwartz", "Joe Schwartz", "Jane Schwartz", etc. Repeating the family name in the subkeywords has a couple of advantages. LR usually only displays the "leaf" name of a keyword, so instead of showing you just "Joe", it will show you "Joe Schwartz", helpful when there are a number of different people whose first name is "Joe". Also, if you ever export your pics to other software, it may not understand the LR hierarchy and won't show the parent keywords, so again it's more informative to see a keyword named "Joe Schwartz" rather than "Joe".

HT1420 I have an old iphone 3G with 1900 songs and pictures that I want to put in my current itunes library, so they will sync in to my new iphone 5s.

I have an old iphone 3G with 1900 songs and pictures that I want to put in my current itunes library, so they will sync in to my new iphone 5s. How can I transfer this info into my new library?
Thanks

You can transfer the purchases you made on your old iPhone 3 by plugging it in to iTunes and doing File > Devices > Transfer Purchases from your IPhone to the iTunes on your computer. This will get music you purchased in iTunes, apps, etc. (e.g., movies).
But for the rest you would need to restore a backup of your newly deceased computer.

HT4236 (PC) When I sync a folder of photos, they sync to the generic photo library on my iPhone, but it creates another folder with duplicates of the pictures. How do I prevent/get rid of this second folder?

Um... that does not contain "duplicates".
It's just a view that shows you everything that's in your other albums and events in one place...

I have a fairly elderly I Mac 7.1 (2.47 Ghz Intel Core Duo) operating OSX v 10.9.5. At the core level I find two Library folders, one within the System Folder and one by itself with the other core level folders - mostly same content. Is this right?

The system is slow.

What's the difference between soft reset and hard reseg on an iPhone? Does a soft reset delete my pictures or mess with my data?

After migrating my mac book air with my imac all my applications are in folders

All the applications work, it's just not easy to find a program without looking in the folders. All the applications on my imac were not in folders. These folders are for iWorks, Microsoft Office, Adobe, etc.
Any way of removing these folders from the applications folder to go back to viewing just the icons?

Those same applications are in folders on my pair of iMacs (one set up via Migration Assistant and one installed from scratch) and my MBA also (also installed from scratch). If you have applications such as Safari, Dictionary, QuickTime Player, Mail, Stickies and TextEdit which are not in folders, then your system would appear to be quite normal and nothing to worry about.
You can manually move applications out from the folders if you wish (though this can prevent them updating correctly), or for quick access, do as I do which is to add them to the dock - just drag the application icon to your prefered location on the dock for it to be available with a single click without having to navigate through the application folder at all.

Messed with System/Library files now computer won't start

Ok, I wanted to go about fixing a Photoshop issue I had with 10.4.6. So I replace the following files with the files from 10.4.5...
/System/Library/Filesystems/AppleShare
/System/Library/Frameworks/AppleShareClientCore.framework
/System/Library/Frameworks/AppleshareClient.framework
My network drive went all haywire and I tried to replace the files with the original 10.4.6 files. After that did not solve the problem, I downloaded and used Pacifist to retreive the files from Mac OS X 10.4.6 for PPC downloaded from Apple. After replacing the /System/Library/ from this file, my computer went completely haywire and would not shutdown, start any aps or do anything. Now it won't work at all.
Am I completely screwed? I don't want to have to wipe everything (I have Quark on there that I no longer have a disk for) but I think I may have to.
Please if you have any suggestions for this stupid idiot, who should not have messed with their computer, they would be so welcomed!
Thanks!
