Moving album images - option-drag?

Does anyone know how I can move (cut, not copy) images from one album to another in Aperture 3?
Option-dragging an image has been an important part of my workflow so far in Aperture 2, but I understand that you can't do this in Aperture 3? (I'm about to upgrade)

Aperture 3 does have a few things that work in different ways than Ap2, but dragging images to albums is the same. Cut/copy has never been a feature. It works in a different way. Allan

Moving Album Images from Itunes to iPod

How do I move the album images from iTunes to iPod? Can I do this without updating the whole song, for example just updating the album image. I'd like to keep my play count the same as the play count on my Library is much lower.
Thanks

Moving Master Images after Facebook Upload

I'm using a fully updated version of Aperture 3 and ran into a problem today moving master images that I have not experienced before. My normal workflow is to batch import images from my camera every few days in one large import, so I often have multiple subjects in every batch. For my 9 months with the program I have always downloaded everything into a temporary holding project I literally call "Hold". When I get the time to do a detailed review, I then delete what I don't want and move (drag) the master images I want to keep from "Hold" into other subject-matter-unique projects across the library. This works for me and has worked flawlessly until today when I downloaded about 20 images. What I did differently today was I took things out of my usual order and decided to quickly upload 3 of the images from the "Hold" folder to Facebook using the Aperture Uploader. The upload went fine, as it has in the past, but the problem surfaced when I then tried to move all the master images out of "Hold" to my permanent library file (project) structure. The 17 images (which were not uploaded to Facebook) moved out to their new projects just fine, as always, but the 3 masters which were the source for the Facebook upload will not allow themselves to be moved out of "Hold". When I drag them to the intended project, Aperture copies them into that project, but the original stays in "Hold." Of course, if I try to then delete what is in "Hold" (with a copy safely filed away elsewhere in the Library) I get the warning that I am attempting to delete a master upon which other versions are dependent (to include "Facebook albums" it says), and all will be deleted.
My take on this is the Facebook upload from "Hold", and the resulting versions created in the Facebook album (far bottom entries on the Library listing), now make "Hold" a permanent home for those associated master images. Is there some way to get around this and actually move the master images to where I want them to be AND to de-clutter the "Hold" folder? Or does this mean any use of Aperture's very handy (at least to date) Facebook uploader permanently glues a master to whatever project it was in when it was uploaded, never to fully and completely move again? Thanks.

I just made a test of this, and can confirm the apparent behavior. However, I examined the Masters folder in the Package of the Library (and I have a Managed Library) and I believe there may be some referencing between Projects taking place. The same appears to result where you have created a slideshow. In the Facebook album and in the Slideshow album, the file info reports the master file name -- in my case the xxxx.NEF file, which clearly none of them really are, but rather some version.
I will try to do a more precise test where I can measure the size of the Masters folder to see if the "Move" adds to its size by an amount equal to the size of the Master file.
Interesting!

Shift option drag not working

Hi all,
Today my Shft Option drag is not working. When I click on an object and hit shift-option and drag the object, it should move in a horizontal or vertical direcion, but it does not. When I hold the shift key, the object can still be moved in any direction without stagering. I have never seen this before. Anyone know how to fix this?

Seeking Help with Album Image Issues in iPod Classic

Hi folks -
I have a new 160 iPod Classic and have two album image-related issues I'd appreciate some help with.
In the case of several albums where I'd associated my own art with them in iTunes, the formatting appeared off in my iPod due to the vertical/horizontal proportions. So I corrected the images, replaced the images via iTunes, and re-synced. All of the old images were replaced - except for two. Is there any way to get my iPod to recognize the change to these two images, as it did for all the others?
Secondly, my "The Allman Brothers Band Live at Fillmore East" album was appearing twice in both the Cover Flow and Album list. That was strange, except that after the latest sync it now appears six times! It's only in one place in iTunes, and not erroneously set as a compilation or anything. This is the only album displaying this behavior...
Thanks for any suggestions or advice!

When moving a file using drag and drop, as I hover over the destination folder it no longer opens, so I can't drop the file into the folder. Why?

When moving a file using drag and drop, as I hover over the destination folder it no longer opens, so I can't drop the file into the folder. Why? I have a heirarchical embedded folder structure under \Documents. Usually, as I drag the file to be moved over the various folders, they will blink twice, then expand/open to reveal contents (in Finder). Now, when the file to be moved is held (hovering) over the destination folder, it will not blink or expand, so there's no place to drop the file. If I release the mouse button, the file image disappears, showing that it is "going back to the place it came from", a.k.a. was not moved. This just started happening. I noticed it after upgrading to Mavericks. Is this a bug or could anything else be causing this?

As of today, Apple Support discovered during a remote support session with me that the same thing happens on their own system. It is isolated to "Column View"; the Icon and List views in Finder behave correctly. Issue is being escalated to engineering, and Apple will call to report status in a couple days. In all likelihood, this is a bug that will need to be addressed in a future update.

How do I delete album images?

I've discovered I can drag and drop album images to correspond to my music in iTunes. However, I've occasionally "missed" and now some songs are associated with the wrong album art. I can't figure out how to delete those images so I can start over (or reduce file size). Does anyone know how to delete album art (but not the songs) from iTunes?

Right-click the song that you want to remove the album artwork from, then go to Get Info. Go to the Artwork tab. Click on the image that you want to delete, and then press the Remove button below.

Moving album from library onto Ipod

Hi,
I just downloaded an album from a CD into my music library. Now I want to move it onto my Ipod. *I don't want to use SYNCH* because I have music on the Ipod that is not in my library and my understanding is that this will erase the music from the Ipod that is not also in the library. In past versions of Itunes, I always used to just grab the album with a the mouse and pull it over to to the left of the screen (where the Ipod is listed as the music device when it is attached to the computer) and just drop it into the Ipod by releasing the mouse with the cursor over it. But on this version of Itunes, that does not seem to work. Did they change Itunes? Is ther any way to do this on the current version? If not, should I donwload an older version of Itunes? Where can I get that and what is the version called?
Thank you.
Dan

Hi,
Glad someone else has noticed this problem (and it IS a problem).
I think it's been happening ever since they brought in iTunes version 9, as far as I can remember it worked perfectly well before that.
I like to manage my songs manually, and it was just so much easier to drag an album image with the cursor to my ipod. Now it will only let me grab every 6th or 7th album cover, or so, which is useless, as far as I'm concerned!
I've put in a request to Apple to change this back to the way it was, but if nobody is going to complain, apart from me, then I don't suppose it will get done.
Funnily enough, the last time I added a CD, a couple of days ago, it actually worked like it used to. I could actually flick through the artwork in cover flow without it jumping about 6 or 7 covers, and it actually let me grab at each albums artwork, which meant I could add what album I liked without having to highlight each song individually before dragging them to my ipod.
I don't know why it did this, as it hasn't worked properly since the last version of iTunes 8. It's back to it's _+"bad old self"+_ today, I've noticed!
I haven't got a clue what's going on!
Maybe it is supposed to work as it did, but there is now a "glitch" in the software that prevents it from doing so (although they've updated iTunes 9 a few times now, and it hasn't "repaired" it).
There is one way around this, I have just found out today. If you go to the menu, and click on "view", then change the setting from *"cover flow"*, to "list", then look below that you'll see a *"show artwork column"* setting.
If you click on that, the artwork for each album is shown in a column to the left of the list. From what I've seen, you can then still drag each album from the cover art to your ipod, and it takes all the songs in the album, rather than having to highlight them all individually.
It's not really a fix, as I would like, but it does mean less hassle when trying to transfer songs!

Moving an image between chapters

I have having difficulty moving an image from one chapter to another in iBooks Author. I can't drag it beyond its own chapter and I can't copy and paste it as nothing is pasted. Any ideas anyone?

Have you tried simply using the original image to create the other placements instead...repeating the original process instead of c/p....?

Option dragging to copy regions

I'm finding it really annoying that when I want to option drag a region to copy it, the dialog box that tells it's current location doesn't show up until I start to move the region. It would be helpful to know that before I start moving.

This sounds like you have might have turned on one of the "accessibility' features of OS X..
or...
Did you install something else just prior to this problem occuring? It could well be the cause of the issue if you did so.....

Finder locks after option dragging to copy

The Finder is driving me nuts. I've had various problems with Finder, but the most disturbing one right now is Finder freezing when I copy files by option dragging them to another folder. It usually requires dragging more than one file, but has occurred when copying a single one. The "ghost" of the files I'm moving appears at the cursor, but upon trying to "drop" them into the new folder, the "ghosts" freeze in place and the finder becomes partially responsive. I can move, close and create new folders, but can no longer move or copy any files. I can rename files. The "ghosts" do not move, even when closing the underlying folder or anything else around them. They stay frozen on the monitor screen until I relaunch the Finder. At that point, the files have been appropriately copied to the new folder. This is happening regularly and predictably in both an administrator account and a non-administrator account. I have deleted every preference I can find that might remotely have anything to do with copying. My software is up to date. I installed Totalfinder (which I love, BTW) to see if that would make any difference and it doesn't. This problem, along with Apple's new versioning mandate, has slowed my work style down to a crawl. Any help would be appreciated. If you can solve this, I'll hang a picture of your avatar on my wall and salute it every evening.

I was just suggesting the file copy/paste as a work-around, in case no real solution was forthcoming.
Anyway, I should be able to option drag like I've done for many years, don't you think?
Yes, I do think so too! Have you filed a stern-but-polite complaint to Apple's Feedback page?
Of course, I also think we should be able to NOT have auto-save and we SHOULD have Save As, so obviously I'm just a dinosaur.....
And I too find the revised way the drag 'n drop things work silly at best, and distracting at worst. All the jiggling about nonsense, which appears all thru the interface, is yet one more reason I prefer to do actual work in Snow Leopard. With an older Mac Pro I can boot into whichever OS I want.

HELP! moved "all images" to trash by mistake. They are still there but I can't undo. How can i return photos to iphoto? Thx!

HELP! moved "all images" to trash by mistake. They are still there but I can't undo. How can i return photos to iphoto? Thx!

Thanks but I have no "Put Back" option when right-clicking. When I attempt to open a photo in iPhoto I receive a white exclamation point on a black background. I have restarted my PC since first encountering this problem but have not emptied trash though i appear to be out of memory. Also, iphoto library shows size as 17GB however, each photo shows 0KB. When i attempt to open a photo i receive message "Item <photo filename> is used by Mac OS X and cannot be opened." I can see the images when scrolling in iPhoto but they disappear when the screen is still. THANKS!

360 degree rotate image mouse drag edge tutorial

360 degree rotate image mouse drag edge tutorial and give edge file

My thoughts would be to, use an event listener for mouse
down.. then depending on where the mouse is down have it create
another event listener for mouse move, for example if the mouse x
and y was in the range of where you want.. And after that in the
mouse move function create a tween depending on where the mouse x
or why moves to.
private function mouseDOWN(evt:MouseEvent):void{
//if mouse x or y is in the position rang wanted, create the
event listener for mouse movement and mouse up.
private function mouseMOVED(evt:MouseEvent):void{
//if mouse y moved from original position, figure out the
difference
// create a tween on the object's original location, and
addition of the difference.
private function mouseUP(evt:MouseEvent):void{
// remove all of the event listeners to stop all
interaction. Also removing the mouse up listener.
hope this helps

Option-drag contacts to Finder no longer works in Mavericks

In all versions of Contacts and Address Book you could select multiple contacts, hold down the option key, then click and drag them into a folder, which would result in a separate vCard for each contact. If you did not hold down Option prior to dragging, all contacts were combined into a single vCard (eg: John Smith and 10 others.vcf).
I just installed Mavericks and now the option-drag method no longer works. As I drag the contacts to a folder everything looks like it is working as normal, except that when I drop, nothing shows up in the finder, the folder remains empty. If I don't hold down the option key, it works as normal and a single vCard is created for multiple contacts. Dragging one at a time also still works.
I would like to know if others are experiencing this as well. I assume this must be a bug, as without this ability the only way to export multiple separate vCards (that I know of) would be to drag them one at a time.

It's frustrating when Apple removes a feature you're used to using... But when they close a door....
Do the following:
1) Open the Contacts Application and select all the contacts you want to export
2) Open the Automator application and create a New Workflow
3) Select "Contacts" from the Library panel at the left
4) Drag the action "Get Selected Contact Items" from the middle panel and select "Get Selected PEOPLE" from the drop-down menu.
5) Drag the action "Export vCards" from the middle panel and select "Export INDIVIDUAL VCARDS" from the first drop-down menu and select a destination FOLDER from the second drop-down menu. Just create a new folder on your Desktop and select it, you don't want to save directly on the Desktop as this will put all your individual vcards there.
6) Run the workflow by hitting the PLAY button at the top-right of the window.
Optionally, you can save the workflow for future use, but the best practice would be to use the Get Selected Items and not the Get Specified Items, as the later would only export the contacts you already have there and not the new ones, I believe.
In any case, there's the window!

Place Image option is missing in Acrobat 9

I'm trying to add an image object (jpg image) into a document. Following the instructions to use Advanced Editing>Touchup Object tool, the right clicking, there are no options displayed. The option to "place image" is absent.
This previously functioned, but now it'g gone. Any help??

Security Restrictions of the document are unknown.
The problem was
resolved following an Adobe "repair" procedure, then I re-created the
pdf file by printing it to pdf (the document had a few "typewriter"
objects on it). Starting again from this point, the insert image options
were present upon right click.
My guess is that if there are
typewriter objects on the document, this provides some conflict with the
advanced editing tools. IF this is the case, the "help" sections on
inserting images needs some more helpful info of this nature. Thanks for
the response.
