Need help with script to save iPhoto RSS pix to album
Hi all. I'm a very green Applescripter needing some pointers.
Goal: Create a script to "save" pictures from subscribed RSS feeds in iphoto (they get automatically deleted when they fall off the RSS feed).
I can "add" or "duplicate" the images from the subscribed album to my "archive" album but I can't figure out how to tell if I've already copied an image or not. Is there some way to say something like:
if RssPhoto exists in ArchiveAlbum then
don't copy
else
do copy
end if
I tried doing a file name comparison but iphoto adds a incremental number to the filename so it ends up failing the comparison.
Thanks for any help.
'I tried doing a file name comparison ...' - please show your code, and respective RSS url(s).

I need help with color pallette in iPhoto 11. I have created a book and would like to use a different color background than those given in "background." I have found the color palettes but can't seem to incorporate them into my backgrounds palette.
That is not a feature of iPhoto - suggest to Apple - iPhoto Menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback.
Additionally I have no idea what you are saying here
I have found the color palettes but can't seem to incorporate them into my backgrounds palette.
And it always helps for you to dientify the version of iPhoto that you are using

Need Help with scripting for Automator/AppleScript.
Hi everybody,
I am building a small app for my mac, What I need is a script that can rename a file that I drop on it.
and example being:
example.jpg
(when I drop it on the app, I want the app to change the filename of the document to "Image.jpg"
I have tried this with Automator, but it requires that I specify the file to be changed, what I need is something that will change the name of any file I drag onto it.
I am using it for application specific files.
Kind regards,
Pete.
iBook G4; 60GB Hard Drive, 512MB RAM, Airport ExtremeOpen the Script Editor in the
/Applications/AppleScript/ folder and enter the
following:
on open(the_file)
tell application "Finder"
set name of the_file to "Image"
end tell
end open
Save this script as an application.
(11347)
this script compiled correctly; however when run it returned the following error "Can't set name of (the_file) to "Image.jpg"
I am also given the option of editing the script or just quitting.
thanks for your help -
Need help with scripting Jumps
Hi - hope someone can help me. I'm in over my head. I have a long (4 hrs.) commercial video track separated by dozens of markers (placed earlier in FCP). All my menu buttons work fine, but I want to include a button which serves as an "In-Store" demo loop featuring about 30-45 minutes of highlights (meaning favorite clips) looped endlessly for in-store sales. I can't seem to get the right combination going. New user of DVDSP but not of Mac. I managed to get it to jump to a marker, but so far, every attempt results in the program not recognizing the end of a segment. Struggling with the manual and need an expert to simplify things.
Hi Hal -
Just perfect. Thanks very much, Hal. I'd entirely skipped the "Stories" sections of my tutorials and manual automatically assuming (from prior experiences with Flash, SuperCard, etc.,) that scripting would be the solution. (Plus I'm rushing to complete the thing.) The best part is that it this extremely easy to do. If I need to shorten a clip I can just add a separate marker in DVDSP with no apparent down side. Stories are a sweet feature, and I'm sure I'll be using them over and over with each new production.
So, you've just scored the "Expert" ranking in my book and I'm wondering you'd like to make it a daily double... Here's the next and hopefully last sticking point in my little project: I set up multiple angles in several clips in FCP, which don't seem to display in DVDSP. They might, I just can't tell from the sim. And yes, I'm aware that importing separate tracks and re-compositing them in DVDSP is a way to make angles happen, but I already did all this once, with great care, and I'm wondering how to get the Final Cut angles to change in the simulator in DVDSP. Any experience in these areas?
Thanks again for the "stories" advice. Right on the money. -
There is request to dump every days data from one table into text file. I need to write shell script and sql script for that
There are two tables (INSPECTION_RESULTS and NJAS) under NJSHDOWN schema. The table NJAS is child table of INSPECTION_RESULTS. The key is RES_SYS_NO. The script should get the MIN and MAX RES_SYS_NO from INSPECTION_RESULTS table for yesterdays date. Then use these RES_SYS_NOs to fetch data from NJAS table. I then need to create comma delimited file for following columns. Also, to add the logic in shell script to check for oracle error (ORA-). If there is error, it should send email to DBAs group(first test it with your email address).
Following columns are needed from NJAS table.
NJA_RES_SYS_NO
NJA_TEST_REC_NO
NJA_LIC_ST_ID
NJA_ETS_ID

Need Help With Script Skipping Word Before Variable
I borrowed and modified a skip I found here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4808804 with code borrowed from elsewhere.
I noticed that it seems to run fine, but it skips any word that appears right before a variable. The point of the script is to find any text using an italic override or bold override, and replace the override with the appropriate character format from the catalog.
Can someone tell me why the code below skips words before a variable? I am sure it is a simple thing, but I am teaching myself Extendscript, and only recently started the attempt/

Marc

return;It looks like home assignment. Home assignment are not very welcome here. I can help you only a little. It's very simple application, but if you dont know basics in OO, you are in trouble.
Create these three files, even empty with all points you need to accomplish in them as comments.
Think about gui you need. If you do not know how to make menus and other fancy gui you can do only with one main panel with a few buttons and JOptionPanes appearing for every input.
Buttons for each task:
1. get available rooms; press and see JOptionPane telling what rooms are empty (information message)
2. book: JOptionPane asking how many guests, you input, it checks for availability, if available rooms are not enough (or beds) another OP tells that it's impossible, if enough - offer to input room number, you input, check if the room is booked, then offer to input name, then offer quit.
3. unbook.
4.get report
Once you design how it looks, every step becomes very simple. All methods you need to implement are simple array manipulations. Make report last, because it's just collection of printouts from methods you've already done.
In book, you need to look for definitions of constructor, passing arguments to methods, returning results from methods, creating object with "new" operator, simple event handling, JOptionPane documentation and examples, which are in every decent textbook.
Do not panic, it's really simple but rather tiresome application, if you do it by yourself you learn almost everything necessary to start programming in java. -

Need Help with script: CS4 Flash Buttons
I created a 3 button bar using Flash CS4. It will link to three different HTML pages in a website. This is one of the three scripts I have on the first frame of the main timeline, the code is for one of the buttons, the other two are really the same with differing button numbers. This code does now open the page up in a NEW BROWSER window, but I would like the page to open in the existing window and not in a new one. The 3 buttons also have down states identified by a frame label of “hold”, I would like the script to set the hold frame or down state to be displayed when the proper page is loaded in the browser . Will someone please suggest to me what I need to add to this script to achieve this, your time and effort will be appreciated.
stop();
button1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, illus);

got any thoughts on this.

Need help with script - either shell or applescript
ok, so what i want to do is make some sort of script, either applescript or shell script, that will do the following:
take out from a command in the terminal
put that output into a text file already on my computer.
the only thing is that i need to put the output in the file kinda weird: i need to take it and put each character of output on a new line, but not create new lines
example:
take output of command 'uptime' (up 32 days, 23:09)
place in file 'myFile'
output:
key u
key p
key space
key 3
key 2
key space
key d
anyone have any idea on how to do this?
thanks in advanceOK, here is the new one, it will go through the existing text, replacing the text between the specified stopping and starting lines with the shell script text:

property MyFile : missing value -- the file to write to (alias)
if MyFile is missing value then set MyFile to (choose file with prompt "select a file to write to:" default location (path to desktop) without invisibles)
-- get the data
set {TempTID, AppleScript's text item delimiters} to {AppleScript's text item delimiters, ","}
set MyText to the first text item of (do shell script "uptime") -- just get the uptime part
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to ""
set {MyText, AppleScript's text item delimiters} to {the text items of MyText, TempTID} -- get the characters
-- add text to each character of the data
repeat with AnItem from 1 to (count MyText)
if item AnItem of MyText is " " then
set item AnItem of MyText to "key space" -- expand the space character
else
set item AnItem of MyText to "key " & item AnItem of MyText
end if
end repeat
-- show the result
choose from list MyText with prompt "the following results will be written:" with empty selection allowed
if result is false then return -- exit
-- make the new file
set OldFile to paragraphs of (read MyFile) -- read the old file
set NewFIle to {} -- this will be the contents of the new file
set ReadOrNot to true
repeat with SomeLine in OldFile -- step through each line
set SomeLine to the contents of SomeLine
if SomeLine is equal to "key n" then -- stop copying lines

set TheOpenFIle to (open for access MyFile with write permission)
set eof TheOpenFIle to 0 -- write over the existing contents
repeat with SomeLine in NewFIle
write SomeLine & return to TheOpenFIle
end repeat
close access TheOpenFIle
on error ErrorMessage number ErrorNumber -- oops
log space & (ErrorNumber as text) & ":" & tab & ErrorMessage
try
close access TheOpenFIle

I didn't know if you wanted to include the stop and start lines, so just uncomment the appropriate statement(s) if you want to include them. I left the stop line comparison as "key n", change it to your number (or some unique text string if you only want one specific replacement). -
Need help with Leopard: screen saver glitch and very slow internet
I performed an erase and install leopard 10.5.1 on my upgraded G4 AGP Sawtooth Computer several times. Has anyone had the following 2 problems with leopard and any suggestions to solve them? Apple telephone support has not helped thus far. The Issues include:
1-Internet surfing (Safari and Firefox) is extremely slow worse than dial-up. I have verizon fios. Upgrading leopard to 10.5.3 and upgrading Safari did not help and took about 10 hours to download when it should have been quick.
2- A screen saver glitch: When I click on screen saver such as beach I get this message. " Screen saver "beach" did not load properly. Error Can't load bundle" When I click on the screen savers folder, there is nothing in it. Desktop pictures work fine.
Computer upgrades include:
Processor-OWC Mercury Extreme [email protected] 2MB L3 Cache
2GB memory
Two 120GB hardrives.
Firmware is updated.
Thus far, all this was done:
Apple exchanged install disk. Same results with new disk.
I ran disk utility and everything is ok including permissions.
I performed a safe boot with apple support.
I Threw away cache folder and com.apple.safari.plist
Tried firefox with same very slow surfing results.
I even checked file system structure problem fsck -yf. Everything was ok
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.Althought the behavior is the same in all three accounts, if all are working accounts I would suspect there is something all of them have installed that could be the source of the problem. Try creating a new admin account, and leave it just the way Apple creates it--don't add anything nor modify it in any way. Log into that account and see if it works correctly.
If that account is also misbehaving, try restarting, and when you hear the chime hold down the Shift key so that you boot into Safe Mode (you'll see a notice in the splash screen about being in Safe Mode). The boot will take longer (perhaps even considerably longer) as the system runs disk repair, empties some caches, disables all third party startup items, as well as all Apple startup items not strictly necessary for the machine to run. See the menus and Dock now behave correctly.
Since the problem is evidently somewhat intermittent in nature it may take some patience to discover what is wrong. You might also disconnect everything that didn't come with the Mac, reboot, and use only the Apple keyboard and Apple mouse and run for a bit to see how that works. If you are using a third party mouse that required installing something that would be my guess as a "prime suspect" for the cause of the problems.

Need help with File Sharing and iPHOTO Library sharing........
I recently upgraded my imac and my macbook pro to Mavericks.
I have some problems now.
Previously using iPHOTO when running I was able to see the other computers iphoto library on the left side bar. I was able then to access the other computers iphoto library. This is no longer showing the other computers library from either computer.
When I try to access the other computers files using file sharing I get a message that permisions are missing.
It then asks if I want to fix permisions , I say yes....it will run for an hour and do nothing...I need to force quit.
I really dont want to use the cloud to do this sharing....why should I upload into the internet when I have the computers on same network.
Is there any place I can go to find how this is now done? Before I didnt need to look up a thing....was just intuitive . Now Im running into walls every way I try to share the iphoto libraries across computers.The iPhoto sharing that was in the previous version doesn't seem to exist. There is now iCloud Photo Sharing.

I need Help with a website I've created
I need help with a website I've created (www.jonathanhazelwood.com/lighthouse) I created the folowing site with dreamweaver at my current resolution 1366 by 768. Looks great on my screen resolution but if it is viewed on other resolutions the menu moves and some of the text above and below. How can I keep all content centered and working like it does on 1366 by 768 on all resolutions. The htm to my site is below I started off with a blank template through dreamweaver CS5.

1) Padding is only placed on the top and/or bottom of the div. The elements within this div have padding on their sides. This saves you from any "box model math". Keep in mind, if you add any side padding or border to the div itself, it will be added to the width you define to create the *total* width. You may also choose to remove the padding on the element in the div and place a second div within it with no width and the padding necessary for your design.

<p> Special Message from Perry Stone </p>
<h2> Was Jesus Born on December 25?</h2>
<p> 12/20/2010 </p>
<p><img alt="iStock_000003631829XSmall" src="http://www.voe.org/images/iStock_000003631829XSmall.jpg" width="300" height="234" /></p>
<p>Last year, in response to the growing number of Christians who celebrate Hanukkah but hate Christmas, I wrote an article for this website titled “Hanukkah or Christmas?” I explained why I think Jesus was either conceived or birthed on December 25.</p>

</html>Look at all the apdiv's you have. Those are absolutely positioned layers. I'm assuming by your post that you are very new to Dreamweaver and HTML and CSS. I would highly recommend not using absolutely positioned layers until you have a better grasp on HTML and CSS.
Looking at your code I would suggest that you consider using one of Dreamweaver's built in, or downloadable templates as a starting point and work from there.
