Picture missing from drop zone

I'm new to DVD Studio Pro so bear with me.
I am creating a DVD project using the Brush Detail template. I have two menus as its a small project. I dragged a picture into the drop zone last night and it appeared in the menu just fine. Tonight when I opened the project the picture could be seen in the inspector but it's not in the drop zone. When I run the simulator the picture is still not in the drop zone. I tried to delete the picture asset but I couldn't as it's still in use. Any Ideas?
Thanks, Dennis

Scracth that it's the 4th picture.

Adding Pictures/Video to Drop Zones

Hello All,
I've created a drop zone in motion and saved it as a master template. However when I bring it into FCP I have no idea how to place my footage into the drop zone. Whenever I drag something into the canvas it just overwrites the template.
Also, can images/footage be resized and animated within a drop zone?
Thanks!
rT

Thanks Jerry, I can't believe I missed that.
It seems though I can only animate the drop zone as a whole and not the picture/ video inside the drop zone. Is there a way to do that. For example I may want a picture inside the drop zone to scale up a bit. However the scale parameters on the motion tab only control the drop zone as a whole - not what is within it. Is threre any way to resolve this?
Thanks.

QT clips deleted from drop zones & folder. Why?

I had a theme with 8 drop zones. Six of which were filled with QT clips. The clips were stored in a project folder with 15 other clips that I was not using. I went to achive the project and a pop up said it couldn't locate the clips. The clips had been deleted from the drop zones (just the clips not pics that I had in other drop zones)and they were missing from the folder on the hard disk. Any ideas?

Never heard that one before... I have no idea why that would happen "out of the blue."

IPhoto events and pictures missing from iPhoto after restoring new hard drive and upgrade to iLife11

My iPhoto events and pictures are ALL missing from my iPhoto Library after I tried restoring my programs on a new hard drive AND upgrading to iLife11! Over the last few months, I upgraded my 2008 Macbook Pro's hard drive from a 250 GB to a 500 GB hard drive and since then have been manually installing and restoring programs and software. I decided to do things manually because I had problems with doing Time Machine backups/restores in the past, so before I upgraded the drive, I manually saved everything to a Western Digital MyStudio 1 TB hard drive that I had just for the purposes of a second back up. Anyway, I tried importing the pictures onto the new library, but couldn't find the hard copies at first, so that didn't work. I then tried deleting the iPhoto Library that came with new operating system, then copying my old backup onto the new hard drive...that didn't work either. However, when I right clicked on the iPhoto Library icon on my external hard drive (the original) and clicked on "show package contents," the folder not only contained the originals, but they were still organized by year and event just as I had them originally!
So, then I thought "why don't I try just importing the pictures directly into the new iPhoto Library!"
I tested it out, and sure enough, it worked! I then tried importing an entire folder (which, was actually the name of the event), and again it worked! So, I literally clicked and dragged my entire 2007-2009 library of pictures (which was about 35 GB) back into my iPhoto Library! AND, this only took about 30 minutes to download, enough time for me to write this post and the following instructions to Recap:
          1. Open your new iPhoto Library
          2. Go to wherever your ORIGINAL iPhoto Library is saved/backed up, then Right-click (or Control click) on the iPhoto icon
          3. Click on "Show Package Contents"
          4. Go to the folder called "Originals" or "Master"
          5. Click and drag everything INSIDE the folder (not the folder itself) to your new iPhoto Library
          6. DO NOT try Importing from inside iPhoto! For some reaseon, iPhoto can't see these images, but I promise, they're there!
I assume this could work on other iLife programs, but luckily I have MobileMe and my iCalendar updated itself, though I did have to do some tweeking...
Hope this helps other people out, GOOD LUCK!

I'm re-posting the answer to this problem so I can show it has been answered:
Open your new iPhoto Library
Go to wherever your ORIGINAL iPhoto Library is saved/backed up, then Right-click (or Control click) on the iPhoto icon
Click on "Show Package Contents"
Go to the folder called "Originals" or "Master"
Click and drag everything INSIDE the folder (not the folder itself) to your new iPhoto Library
DO NOT try Importing from inside iPhoto! For some reason, iPhoto can't see these images, but I promise, they're there!

Entire iPhoto pictures missing from external hard drive.

Hello, I have already posted this problem but I'm not sure it was clear enough and not getting the response I needed. I had a Jan 2011 white laptop came with snow leopard, and I upgraded to Lion. A good few months ago, my daughter splashed a small amount of water on it, whilst it was turned on and open. I dried off the water I could see, and the mac was still working so I assumed it was ok. (At this time it had a very low battery and was not connected to a power source) Later on in the afternoon, forgetting about the incident, I did the unthinkable and plugged in the power lead. Result: nothing, the laptop would not boot up, I tried a few times, even holding down the power key for extended time but nothing. I eventually gave up and got myself a new macbook 10.9.2 then two days ago, took the old burnt out laptop to a place to get them to remove the hard drive and fit it in a case for me with a usb connection. They done this, I got home and connected the external hard drive off my old mac into my new mac, success I could see it but when I tried launching I photo from the external HD (old lap top) on my new mac. (I didn't realise there would be a software issue which is obvious now)The new mac with mavericks said it could not open iphoto. So I tried searching for the photo files manually on my external hard drive (but there was nothing) The user files were completely empty. It showed hardly any bytes (indicating I had nothing) My itunes files where gone too, and I could find no files I needed that were originally on my old (mac/ now external harddrive) The only items that were intact were the documents in the documents folder and the applications. I took the external hd back to the repair shop and they said they could not find them. They said they would charge me £100 for an attempted recovery of data which I 'm now not sure what to do, as I'm unsure what has happened. I desperately would like to get some of the data back, i;e (some files from desktop and photos) as frustratingly it was not backed up....
My questions are:
1.Would trying to open iphoto, and itunes from my external HD with earlier software in 10.9.2 Mavericks cause me to lose data (including desktop files) ?
2. Could the water damage be the issue for destroying the data? (although other data is still there)
3. Is it likely the files are still on my external hd and I just can't see them (although the low bytes seems to indicate perhaps not)
4. Is there a reliable data recovery program out there someone can recommend I can get and use that may recover the files, and do I download it on my new mac, and direct it to the external hd?
5. Would apeture locate the missing iphoto picture files from the external HD and integrate it into the library on my mavericks?
6. Could the problem be caused by leaving the HD in my old(water damaged) laptop for so long before I tried rescuing it?
Any light on situation much appreciated. Apologies if this issue already been aswered, I did scour but did not see help I needed.
Thanks in advance

Hi T,
Thanks again for reply. Just checked my mac for the first time without the external HD attached. I had a hard time trying to get back into this site on my new mac. Now I keep getting a pop up that says (https:// discussions.apple.com bad gateway) with ok button every every 30 secs or or something after that I can't type except if I click ok. Prior to that I had some message telling me something about proxy server gateway no access or something. Not happenign on other sites so perhaps just a random error, (hope I have now not picked up a bug or another insidious thing from some site whilst trying to resolve my old HD probs....)
Extremely annoying!!
Well I checked as you asked. This is the process.(if you can tell me how to take a screen shot I will do it, but at moment I don't know how to do that exactly)
At the moment I have got my HD showing on my desk top Top RH corner, like they used to in the good old days before it all changed. I do this, because everything is conveniently placed in one place. Call me old fashioned I guess..
(Not to change the thread but this pop up thing is driving me mad...)
If I doubleclick on that by default it opens with five folders in it, I;E applications, library, system, user information, users.
When I click on Users.
It is here I find the user file with a user name that I have NEVER entered into this new mac, (especially with old MAC HD attached as I did not want any confusion) I even re-named my old HD (OLD mac HD)
This new user file even has the icon of a HOUSE instead of a folder, which is something off older OS as far as I know, I never saw it in mavericks before attaching this encased contraption which is just a metal box as far as I see that holds my old HD, but annoyingly done by someone that may not have known what they were doing..
Why the heck is it there? It should not be there!
When I click on this old (home folder) as that is what it used to be, and that was the name of my OLD HD before it got the name (old mac HD) which now I think of it, was not changed by me by default... which is a thought.. I only added the word OLD to it..
Well it has all my default folders such as desk top, docs, movies, pictures ect.. When I click on pictures I have my new iphoto library and another folder called root which has the salvaged files I saved there from the recovery software Stellar Pheonix which I downloaded a couple of days ago but can't actually open with preview anyway. I tried to do it with an old version of CS 5 photoshop to see if that would work, but I could not get photoshop to open in mavericks even after java update)
The interesting thing is is: if I go to system preferences in my dock I click on users it only has the user folders I specified that should be there on my new mac.
now peeved. and this annoying pop up.....Situ does not seem to be getting any better!
Instructions please how to post screenshot..
PS sorry about LONG POST

Why is "add to rig" missing from drop menu?

I am missing the "Add To Rig" option on the drop down menu when trying to add parameters. Interesting thing is that the parameter I'm trying to add already has the rig icon showing yet isn't showing when I publish. Am I missing a simple preference or option?

why, in the past 2 days, is the movies category missing from the menu of my appletv?
Mine did it yesterday.
My internet connection has been playing up for 2-3 days, with loss of connection even though router still indicates it's connected.. AppleTV is still on network but can't see the internet for movies when this happens.
Also check you have correct country set as some won't allow movie rentals.

Images disappear from drop zones

I'm using the "Bands" template, and I'm adding a photo to 3 different drop zones: the first one (the animated one) works fine. But when I add a photo for background on either the menu or "extras" page, it goes in fine, turns black and white and has the shading around the top edge, but when I click on another page in the DVD and back to these two pages, the image is gone and it again says "Drag Photos or Movies Here". Any ideas? I'm using 7.0.4, don't have any compelling reason to upgrade to 7.1 unless this bug is fixed there...

Hi George
Sorry to hear you are having issues with iDvd regarding background and drop zones not staying with the images or photos you picked. I just tried the very same thing you described above running iDvd 7.0.4 on a Dual G5 2.0 Ghz and I cannot duplicate this issue. Mine runs fine and exactly as expected. All choices remain in place. So I'm not exactly sure what's going on with your own particular configuration. But like you I don't recommend updating unless this issue is first addressed in the next update. My feeling is that it won't be. What you may want to do if you haven't already is dispose of the plist for iDvd. Go to your HOME folder > Library > Preferences >
com.apple.iDvd.plist
Drag and drop this file to the trash or to the desktop and relaunch iDvd.
Come on back if this fails to help. Please also let us know exactly how much available hard drive space is remaining on the boot volume (your main HDD). You may also want to repair permissions at this time from apple's disk utility.
Good luck!

Connection Pool Name Missing from Drop Down when Creating a New Datasource

Hi All,
I'm running Weblogic Server 8.1. I've successfully created a connection pool for DB2 using the Non-XA JDBC driver from IBM (Version 7.1). When I attempt to create a datasource for this pool and un-check the "Honor Global Transactions" checkbox, the connection pool is missing from the dropdown on the next page of the wizard. If I check the checkbox, the connection pool appears in the list.
I experience this behavior on one instance of Weblogic Server, but not on another (I can see the pool whether or not the check box is checked).
Is there some setting on the connection pool that could cause this behavior?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve

SteveI can't reproduce this on 8.1sp5...
I would have you compare the JDBCConnectionPool entry
between the two instances.

Email alias missing from drop-down when composing

My email aliases appear in iCloud mail / preferences / accounts, but when I go to select which one to send from one is missing. It's my husband's name but has always worked until recently. My hsuband tends to use his own iCloud address so hadn't noticed it wasn't working. It has disappeared from all devices synced with this account.
All my other aliases appear as a choice but not this one. Any ideas?
Thanks!

I've just solved this.
(It's amazing that Apple's now so big that even support personnel apparently don't know about this fix.)
• Aliases are now fully managed on icloud.com. Go there in your web browser, log in, and go to Mail.
• Go to the Mail prefs (gear icon, lower left), then the Composing tab. There you'll see an item called “Choose which addresses you would like to be able to send from.” (It’s light gray and easy to overlook.) In the rectangle below that, you'll see various email addresses. (I can see 4.) (See attached screenshot.) Turns out that’s actually a scrollable menu of email addresses. But since there’s no visible scroll bar — even when you mouse over the rectangle — there’s no indication that it's scrollable.
• You must click inside the rectangle and drag upward to reveal any hidden addresses below the first few. Depending upon how many addresses and aliases you have, your aliases (if active) should be somewhere in that list. (In my case, the 4, visible addresses were NOT my aliases. But upon scrolling down, there they all were!)
Inexplicably, not only has Apple changed the location of this stuff, they've disabled our aliases without any explanation! That's why the aliases are missing from Mail.app.
• Tick the checkbox in front of any address that you want to appear in Mail.app.
• Click 'Done.'
That's it! If Mail.app is already running, quit and relaunch it — and your aliases should now be available!

Standard TCP/IP Port missing from drop down "Create a new port and add a new printer"

Somehow someone was on my print server and made some changes or added some software. I found that the "HP Universal Print Monitor" was my only other choice besides Local Port when I went to add a new printer on my 2012 print server
"Standard TCP/IP Port" was gone. I ended removing this from the registry (see below) as I could not find any other way to uninstall it. After this was removed I did reboot and I can still add a normal Standard TCP/IP Port under print
management in the ports section but this option is gone in the drop down when you add a printer under printers.
Any idea how to get this option back into the drop down list?
HKLM\SYSTEM\CURRENTCONTROLSET\CONTROL\Print\MONITORS\HP Universal Print Monitor

I followed these instructions and everything is correct and still do not have the tcp/ip option
Restore missing Standard TCP/IP Port type for Printer
Filed under:
Tips n Tricks — Rahul Patel @ 5:01 pm
If the TCP/IP port option is missing you need to re-add it.
First, make sure that the following files are in C:\Windows\System32\:
tcpmib.dll
tcpmon.dll
tcpmon.ini
tcpmonui.dll
If they are missing, you will need to copy them there from either the i386 directory (if you have one) or from the original install CD.
Then, copy the following lines to NOTEPAD and save the file to your desktop as “printer.reg”
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
      [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors\Standard TCP/IP Port]
      “Driver”=”tcpmon.dll”
      [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors\Standard TCP/IP Port\Ports]
“LprAckTimeout”=dword:000000b4
“StatusUpdateInterval”=dword:0000000a
“StatusUpdateEnabled”=dword:00000001
Once it’s saved to your desktop, double-click printer.reg and say “OK” to the warning that you will be adding the keys to your registry.
Reboot the Server and the TCP/IP port option should be back.

Pictures Missing from iPhoto after upgrade to Snow Leopard

Timeline:
To start at the end of the story, I installed Snow Leopard the other day and now I can't find my iPhoto Library. My Time Machine backup doesn't show it either and given my history and length of using macs, I should be ashamed of myself for not doing an additional back-up and verifying its contents.
We have a large iPhoto collection that from time to time has been archived and a new library created. In February '09 I moved the current iPhoto libary to an external portable hard drive and triple backed the whole thing up.
At some point this summer (2009), it appears that a camera was connected or iPhoto was opened without the external hard drive connected and iPhoto created a new library. Photos were imported to this library and the external was set aside. I believed (should have verified) that Time Machine was backing this new library up.
I backed up to Time Machine and then installed Snow Leopard when I first received it. When I went to open iPhoto, it can't find anything but an older iPhoto Library (from 2007) that had been stored on the desktop. Time Machine backups from prior to the move to the external drive are intact, but it doesn't appear that Time Machine ever backed up the newly created Summer '09 iPhoto Library. It was on the laptop's hard drive without backup and Snow Leopard deleted it in some fashion. I have done every scan imaginable and all of the videos and photos do not show up in the current directory.
So.
1. I understand that I deserve to be shot for my management of this.
2. Always verify your backups.
3. What should I do now? I have stopped using the machine so I don't write over the pictures that are likely still on the drive, but not on the directory. I have contacted Apple. Although they are looking into the problem, I don't expect much help. Should I use recovery software? What do people recommend? What are the steps to run it?
Thanks for reading this, if you take the time.
Andy

The blank page can be output if you select the vendors driver, in your case the Canon driver. Delete the printer queue and add it again, this time selecting a Postscript driver, such as a HP Color LaserJet model that has PS in its name.

SVG Default filters missing from drop down in cs5

Hello,
I’m new to using Illustrator and am just learning my way around the effects. I used the svg filter on another project, but when i tried to open them in the drop down menu the only options are to apply or import now. Where did the default set go?

You have probably opened an SVG file which is having no filter applied on any object in the document and it was saved from Ai without Illustrator Editing capabilities or any other application, that is the reason why no default SVG filter is listed in your dropdown.
The concept is, default SVG filters in the dropdown are picked up dynamically at the Document creation time from the file placed at following location:
Win : C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS5\Support Files\Required\Resources\en_US\Adobe SVG Filters.svg
Mac : /Applications/Adobe Illustrator CS5/Adobe Illustrator.app/Required/Resources/en_US/Adobe SVG Filters.svg
I case you add another SVG filter (your own written filter code) to this file, it will also be picked up at the time of document creation in the drop down.
If you save an SVG file through Ai with objects having SVG filters applied to it, only those filters which were applied to the object in that particular document would populate on opening the SVG File in the SVG Filters Menu.
In case you want all the default SVG filter available in your dropdown you will have to save the document with Illustrator Editing capabilities Preserved. It is a check Box in the SVG Save options Dialog.

Pictures missing from iPhoto 11 9.4.1

I upgraded to 9.4.1 the other night, and now some of my pictures are missing. It shows a thumbnail very briefly but then turns into a gray box. Should I rebuild the library? I back up to Time Machine.
Thanks!

Option 1
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. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
Regards
TD

Pictures missing from iphone but still in storage =(

i had a notification come up on my screen whilst taking pictures,
it said: mass storage delete pics or cancle... they were the two options given
i pressed cancel as i recall and all of a sudden all my pics and videos are gone,
though they are still showing up in my storage as...
photos and camera 24.0GB SO WHY CANT I ACCESS THEM PLZ IF SUM1 COULD HELP ME IT WOULD BE GREAT
EMMA =)

Try this:
http://www.ismoothblog.com/2013/01/extract-itunes-backup-recover-files.html
If this works, make a folder with these photos and sync them back to iPhone through iTunes.
Before that, go to Photos and Camera and swipe to delete those 24GB. Then take a pictue to be sure that your Camera Roll works good and then sync your iPhone with the folder that you created.
