Need iPhoto/Elements file system help please
I have over 8000 photos in various albums in iPhoto 9.
Some photos show up in multiple albums. I assume the various album pics are linked to the one actual picture file on the hard drive.
If I export one album at a time to Elements, will It actually save multiple copies of the same file on the hard drive?
Thanks for your help!
Len
iPhoto'09 allows you to import the albums/events selectively. However iPhoto'011 does not allow that from Elements Organizer.
In iPhoto'09. if you have organized your photos without selecting the preference of copying files in iPhoto library during import, which means, your iPhoto library keeps the references of the images. In such case if you import from iPhoto into Elements Organizer, organizer does not create separate copies.
But yeah in case of iPhoto'011, it does.

I can't load raw files from a Leica d-lux 6. Says it's an unsupported file. Help please!
I cannot load raw files from a Leica d-lux 6. Aperture says it's an unsupported file. How do I get it to be a supported file? Help, please!
What is your Aperture version? Here is the list of supported raw formats for Aperture 3, see: Apple - Aperture - Technical Specifications - RAW Support
Your camera is not on the list. Use the software that came with your camera to convert your raw files to dng or tiff images; then you can import the images into Aperture and work with them, while waiting for Apple to release raw support for your camera. Or shoot raw+jpeg pairs and use the jpeg while you are waiting.
Is Mac OS X (10.5.1) really your current operating system? Then you may need to upgrade, when Apple finally releases raw support for your camera. The newest raw support required Aperture 3.4. to be installed.

I plugged my phone in and I'm trying to upload photos like I usually do but iPhoto is saying "Please wait for import to complete". It won't let me close iPhoto or anything. Help please!

I can not open raw files in elements 12 any help please?
I can not open raw files from my Nikon D610 in elements 12. (I have already downloaded raw converter 8.3 but to no avail) any help please would be appreciated.
Hi,
Can you confirm which Camera Raw PSE 12 is actually using by loading the editor and going to Help -> About Plug-in -> Camera Raw.
If you do Help -> Updates it may install the latest camera raw of 8.4 - not on XP or Vista systems.
Do you use any Nikon software to download the images? The older versions have been known to corrupt the files.
See the following for more info.

I have recently upgraded from the 08 iPhoto to 9.2.3. iPhoto told me it needed to update my photo library. It did this and all of the photos appear to be right where they should be.
However, when I go to EVENTS I can see the pictures, I can even click on an event and view all of the pictures in that specific event. The problem is when I click on an individual photo in an event, the part of iphoto that usually shows the enlarged version of that picture is blank/black screen. It does this for ever photo in the library. Does anyone know what I can do to sort this out?
Thanks much,
LAMThere are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
If none of these help:
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there? -
Does /sapmnt need in cluster file system(SAP ECC 6.0 with oracle RAC)
We are going to be installing SAP with Oracle 10.2.0.4 RAC on Linux SuSE 10 and OCFS2. The Oracle RAC documentation states:
You must store the following components in the cluster file system when you use RAC
in the SAP environment:
- Oracle Clusterware (CRS) Home
- Oracle RDBMS Home
- SAP Home (also /sapmnt)
- Voting Disks
- OCR
- Database
What I want to ask is if I really need put SAP Home(also /sapmnt) on cluster file system? I will build a two nodes oracel 10g RAC and I also have another two nodes to install SAP CI and DI. My orginial think is sapmnt is a NFS share, and mount to all four nodes(RAC node and CI/DI), and all oracle stuff was on OCFS2(only two rac nodes are OCFS), anybody can tell me if SAP Home(also /sapmnt) can be NFS mount not OCFS2, thanks.
Best regards,
PeterHi Peter,
I don't think you need to keep /sapmnt in ocfs2 . Reason any file system need to be in cluster is,in RAC environment, data stored in the cache of one Oracle instance to be accessed by any other instance by transferring it across the private network and preserves data integrity and cache coherency by transmitting locking and other synchronization information across cluster nodes.
AS this applies to redo files, datafiles and control files only , you should be fine with nfs mount of /sapmnt sharing across and not having ocfs2.

I cannot open Nikon NRW raw files in Elements 11 Help please
If you're feeling brave* you can try the workaround procedure listed here - http://forums.adobe.com/message/5956711#5956711.
You'll need to use ACR 8.3 RC1. I found it at http://www.freewarefiles.com/downloads_counter.php?programid=24402. ACR 8.3 final won't work with PSE11. Make sure you click the correct download link - 'Direct Download 1' to get the zip file 'cameraraw8-3cs6_r1_win_110713.zip'.
If your system can't open zip files I highly recommend the free 7-Zip (Google it) to do so.
The '1033' file the instructions refer to is in payloads\AdobeCameraRaw7.0All-051113155157\Assets1_1.zip.
* At your own risk! If any of this is incomprehensible stick with the DNG converter - that's the officially supported method and you'll need to install it anyway to get the profiles installed.

When Mozilla Firefox last automatically updated, it suggested that Adobe Reader needed updating. After updating to Adobe Reader 8, I can no longer print from the internet, only to a file. I know the printer and its interface must be OK because Word prints normally.

Problem with backing up catalog in Elements Organizer 12 - help please
I am trying to do a full backup of my catalog in Organizer 12 (this is the first time have tried backup) and it is coming up with 0 bytes of data and gets error message 'Error encountered while writing files'. I have 1000+ files that I have imported to the organizer (with many 1000's to go), and I have used the Organizer to move photos/video around -- so I would think they are in the catalog. (I was trying to put the backup on the C drive -- is that causing any problem).
Elements12 is the first installation on this computer (using Windows 8.1). I have used previous versions on another computer (v3) and was able to handle everything on DVD's.
Also, is there any way to backup just the catalog (location of files, tags, metadata, comments, stars, and thumbnail etc), and not the full files? I will have over a terabyte for sure. Otherwise I will have to get another external hard drive to backup the catalog to. But I already backup all the photo/video files to an external hard drive.
I want to get all ironed out before I started extensive organizing and tagging, etc. I MUST be able to get a usable backup catalogue before I can spend the time I plan.
Thanks for any help;-)

The first stage of the backup process tells you what is the size needed for the backup: how much space do you need ?
(I was trying to put the backup on the C drive -- is that causing any problem).
It's not recommended for safety and speed reasons, but that's not a reason in itself for your problem. The general rule is that you must store the backup on a separate folder; you must have enough free space (twice the size of the above calculation is recommended).
Also, is there any way to backup just the catalog (location of files, tags, metadata, comments, stars, and thumbnail etc), and not the full files? I will have over a terabyte for sure.
Yes, simply look for the locataion of your catalog in the Help menu, System Information, and copy the whole folder somewhere. Simply look at the total size of that folder.
I will have over a terabyte for sure.
Otherwise I will have to get another external hard drive to backup the catalog to. But I already backup all the photo/video files to an external hard drive.
If you already have a backup from an external software, be sure to have also a copy of your catalog, as mentionned above. But restoring to another computer or drive won't be easy and you'll have to 'reconnect' all your files. That's why the integrated backup system is highly recommended. I'd recomment using another external drive for that purpose. -
Panic Kernal: You need to restart your computer, Help please...
Yesterday I installed an update on my MacBook and everything went haywire. I installed the Apple updates
that were recommended for my computer when it did it's weekly update
check. After the install I quit all open applications and did a
restart per the on screen prompt. Finder closed and the computer just
sat for over a half hour and never would finish shutting down. No key
strokes or commands would do anything. As a last ditch effort I held
the power key down until it shut down. I waited a minute then powered
back up. The gray screen with the apple logo comes up then the spinning wheel. Then a
panic kernal saying the computer needs to be restarted. I tried ten
times then I reset the PRAM then I did two hardware checks. First the
short check then the long one. Both tests showed all hardware to be
fine.Then I called Apple. They told me to reset the PRAM, told me to
do a hardware check then told me to boot in safe mode. Then told me to
try an archive reinstall by inserting disc one, power on, then hold
the C key after the startup chime sounds. One of two things happen
when this is done, it either goes to a blank blue screen or the "You
need to restart the computer" message comes up. If I power on with the
disc in and hold the option key the hard drive and the disc shows on
the screen. If I click on the hard drive the "restart message comes up. If I
click on the disc the blank blue screen usually comes up but twice the
"restart" message came up. I have tried all of the start-up key strokes, Once I got into safe mode but I can't get into it anymore, it now gives the you need to restart message. I can get into Verbose and Single user mode but I don't know of anything to try once I'm in either of those modes.I tried to boot system from single user mode by typing in the command sh /etc/rc but a long list of code just comes up and says something about the panic kernal which I believe is telling me that the same problem
I have trying a normal boot is keeping it from booting in single user mode also. I can do a hardware test(I've done this 3 times and everything shows to be OK). The main problem I have now is it won't boot normally and it won't boot from the install disc so I am truly stuck. I am at a loss as to what I should try next
since I can't even reinstall the software. Any help will be greatly
appreciated especially since my free phone help ended 2 days ago and
today was the first time I ever needed it!!
thanks, JasonThanks for replying, I have no peripherals attached, I am booting from the MacBook Tiger DVD one that came with the machine. I get the panic kernal with or without the disc installed. All hardware checks out fine in the three hardware checks I've done. I am almost positive the problem is stemming from the Apple updates performed since this is exactly when my problems began(trying to restart after the Apple updates). I just can't get the machine to boot from the disc no matter what I try so I can reinstall the operating system. I even tried using an external DVD-ROM once to see if it would boot from it but it did the exact same thing as when I try booting from the internal drive. Yes my files are backed up to an external hard drive. I've got no problem doing a Nuke and Repave if I must but since it won't boot from the disc I don't know how I can even do this. I know it is under warranty but since the hard ware checks OK it looks like there would be a way to get it running again without sending it in for repairs. However I am starting to think that's what I'm gonna have to do. I'm just glad I still have an old clamshell iBook to work with so I can access the internet to seek help. Thanks for your input, can you think of anything else I could try?

Photoshop Elements 2.0 Help Please!
I just installed Photoshop Elements 2.0 and when I go to open it I get an error message saying that the program "Could not initialize Photoshop Elements because the scratch disks are full. This is definately NOT because of my computer's processing power, which runs off of XP has 3 Gigs of ram a 1.5TB hard drive (for my C: drive) and runs off of a 3.2 GHz microprocessor (so it's fairly speedy). I used to have photoshop on my old drive, now my backup (D:) drive, but I recently uninstalledit and reinstalled the program, using the disc, onto my new drive. I've tried cleaning up (using CCleaner) and defragmenting my drive, but nothing seems to work. Please help me out here.
Thanks, JohanasBrown
P.S. I don't know if this is an occuring problem on any of the other editions of Elements, but if it is, I'm sure it can probably be solved in the same way, so even if you don't have the 2.0 edition, any feedback will be greatly appreciated.
P.P.S. The photo below is of the error as it currently appears when I start the program and is also attached.Elements 2 is a very old program but you need to ask in the Elements forum.

Property file usage help please !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
hi there
i need some help on using property file, please. i have a package that contains many directories and classes. in one the directory, there is a property file: properties. and some of the classes need to access information in the file. how can i use ResourceBundle or Property objects to read the file? this is my guessing :
//code....................................
ResourceBundle.getBundle("D:\\tomc\\wowExchangeProject\\soaptest\\src\\com\\wowgao\\uddi\\db\\properties.properties").getString("implementation");
and:
//code....................................
File f=new File( configFile );
if( f.exists()) {
Properties props=new Properties();
props.load( new FileInputStream(f));
DBClassName = props.getProperty("implementation");
i must use absolute path for the file. what if i need to distribute the package on other machine that does not have D drive. how can change it so that i can deploy it on any machine? thankshi there

Let�s say you have the following structure:
- com/props/props.properties
You can use any class inside the classloader that loaded this package to do the following:
InputStrean in = <classname>.class.getResourceAsStream("/com/props/props.properties");
Properties props = new Properties();
props.load(in);
Hope this can help you. Any doubts just ask!

gggmanAs the requirements of your application increase you will end up with an messy bit of code that no one including you can read. The long term solution to this is to redesign application cleanly using proper design patterns (Do a google search and read about theses).
A quick solution would be, in keeping with the current trend in your design is to introduce another method that would take multiple simulation objects and iterate through theme. It would be better if you introduce a new class to do this. Here is an example.
class MultiSimulator{
Collection<Simulator> sims;
MultiSimulator(){
sims = new HashSet<Simulator>();
MultiSimulator(Collection<Simulator> sims){
this.sims = sims;
//other constructors as you need theme
boolean addSim(Simulator sim){
return sims.add(sim);
boolean addSim(Cage budgieCage){
return sims.add(new Simulator(budgieCage));
boolean removeSim(Simulator sim){
return sims.remove(sim);
*Simiulate only one day
void simulateAll(){
void simulateAll(int days){
//use for loop and iterator
void simulate(Simulator sim){
void simulate(Simulator sim,int days){
// and any other methods you can think of

I use photoshop elements 11 with the organizer as my photo catalog. I have deleted my photos off my iphone. I want to get a selet few of the photographs back onto my phone. I thought the easiest way would be to use iphoto with itunes. I don't want to email myself each individual photograph back to myself. My filing system is as following tree
Pictures/photoshop/Each year I have take photographs/Month I have taken photographs/
I want to keep the photographs in their current location. I have about 4500 photographs now and growing.
Can I import my photoshop file with all folder with all the subfolder and future folders into iphoto library without disturbing my filing system and file links to catalog in photoshop elements organizer?No if you want to manage files then iPhoto is the wrong program to use -- it manages photos not files - referencing your file structure is strongly not recommended - and direct access into the iPhoto library is not supported
There is no work around -- you either use iPhoto the way it works or you use a different program
iPhoto does not work for people who manage files - it is a DAM (digital Asset Manager) that uses a SQLite database and you can not access or control the structure of that database. you must either find a different program or learn how to use a database and change your workflow to use it. iPhopto is not the program for your requirements
