Places... so what ?

Dear all,
The new Places of iPhoto 09 is full of potential, but I don't know how to use it.
All my events are "placed" on the worldmap. Now what ?
- Can I see on the map all places where Tom and Peter (who have been "faced") have been ?
- Can I make a slideshow that shows me where the picture has been taken ?
Thanks in advance,
Laurent

Laurent,
If you have a digital camera with built-in GPS, which tags your photos with location information, pins will appear on the world map linked to the photos you import to iPhoto '09.
If NOT (which is the case for, say, 99% of users) you can
1) click the small ( i ) on a photo or event and type in a location/find a new place in Google Maps, or
2) geotag your photos with some other tool, e.g. using external GPS data coupled to your photos, and then (re-)import the photos to iPhoto '09. If 2) sounds very unfamiliar to you, option 1) is your choice.

  • When upgrading to os x lion, will all my files stay in place or what?

    when upgrading to os x lion, will all my files stay in place or what?

    Yes of course, Apple knows a users files are valuable and won't just go deleting them .
    However, OS X upgrades can go bad due to unforeseen circumstances or special modifications people have done to their operating systems or even root level anti-virus installs like Norton.
    If the upgrade goes bad, your operating system can become "bricked", requiring a lot more effort to recover your files.
    Also third party programs like from Microsoft, Adobe and others may not be ready for OS X Lion, if you have any "mission critical" needs for the computer, it's best to wait several months, yes SEVERAL MONTHS, to make absolutely sure all the bugs are worked out of third party drivers, software, printers, scanners etc., and even OS X Lion itself.
    Always backup your valuable data, to write protected cd/dvd's if all possible for the reason that humans, even myself I just recently learned, can very very easily erase data on re-writable media like hard drives due to human error.
    TimeMachine is a somewhat ok image backup system, Carbon Copy Cloning of one's boot drive onto a external drive which is hold option bootable is great in case your hard drive dies, but for your most precious data, you really should be burning, labeling, dating and storing multiple cd/dvd's.

  • Placement errors - what are they?

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me what a 'placement error' is?? Some of my Cluster services (gsd, ons, listeners) are failing to start after a reboot, and I keep seeing mention of placement errors.
    Thanks,

    In case this helps anyone else...
    I fixed my problem by stopping and starting the CRS on the rebooted node
    # ./crsctl stop crs
    # ./crsctl start crs
    I was then able to start the nodeapps without it complaining about 'placement errors'
    # ./srvctl start nodeapps -n raclinux1

  • TS1702 I recently restored my ipod touch, now  I can't install alot of my apps..It tells me I need a newer version of ipod..and I had all of these apps in the first place..what do I do??

    I recently started having trouble with my iPod touch after syncing with iTunes...I tried to download a app that I knew for sure is compatible with my device..it said I needed a newer version of iPod..So, I tried updating with iTunes..it said It was up to date..I was told to restore my device..so, after doing that..some of my apps I've had for years suddenly need a newer version of iPod to download...what can I do?? please help..

    Many developers when they updated their apps to support iOS 5 and 6 dropped compatibility for iOS 4.2.1 and earlier.
    Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.

    It sounds like it needs to be returned to Apple .  Call and arrange to post it to them and let the experts see what needs to be done.

  • Group X-Fade Problem - Grouped tracks apply different crossfade lengths when dragged in place?  (What am I missing here?)

    Super Friends/Fiends,
    In Logic Pro X (and 9) I am hitting a wall editing a chamber string session I just tracked. 
    When I have multiple regions selected with either rubber-banding or phase-locked editing in groups, and I X-fade them with other regions, they apply different crossfade lengths.  This does NOT occur when I individually overlap the regions.  The process gets cumbersome/tedious and I feel like I am missing something here. 
    It is consistently applying larger to smaller crossfade lengths from top to bottom of the selected region overlaps. 
    What am I missing?  Thanks for the help!

    Same here, I'm seeing it with a LP9 project that I opened in LPX. I can't edit this way, it's driving me crazy. I also tried selecting all the regions and setting the numerical value for the fade time in the inspector, but that gives even more silly values.
    Also, zooming in on the waveform looks very blocky compared to LP9.
    I hope this is some setting I'm overlooking, otherwise I'll have to go back to LP9 for editing audio.

  • Not sure if this is the right place, but what video capture software....

    do you recommend? I need something that's cost efficient. I see that there is Mac Capture and Screen Record software that is available and both are under $30. Do any of you have experience with either one of these? Or are there any other that you guys recommend? I want to record the audio and video of the video files that I play on my Powerbook. Thanks.

    To me cost efficient is what works the best.

  • What is the difference between Oracle and MySQL

    Hi,
    I would like to know the major difference between Oracle and MySQL. I have a project to generate XML files from database tables, i have used oracle's built XML functions XMLELEMENT, XMLATTRIBUTES, XMLFOREST, XMLAGG. I really want to know if these functions (or) similar functions are supported/availabe in MySQL.
    I am having a hard time to find out best linux distro for installing Oracle11g, so i am planning to switch to MySQL. Please help, Thanks in advance.

    What's so hard about finding a "best linux distro for installing Oracle11g"? The supported distros are listed in the fine Installation Guide for Linux. At the top of the list is Oracle's own Oracle Linux, which is in the same family as Red Hat.
    so i am planning to switch to MySQL. Please help, Thanks in advance.

  • What to do after 11g R2 install on win 2008, get errs trying to start dbcon

    The install run fine, but at the end it gives you a nasty warning saying the following:
    1) Set your environment Variable ORACLE_UNQNAME to the Database unique name"
    2) c:\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\bin\emctl.bat start dbconsole.
    Why id didnt do this for you as part of the install I dont know. Anyway, I set a SYSTEM environment varibale ORACLE_UNQNAME ot orcl (I have no idea what Database unique name is, but Im guessing its either the SID or the Gloabl DB name. i have tried both, and neither seem to work).
    After this, I fire up powrer shell, and enter:
    c:\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\bin\emctl.bat start dbconsole
    which give the error:
    - An instance of Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g Database Control is already running.
    So I try this:
    c:\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\bin\emctl.bat stop dbconsole
    which gives the error message:
    The OracleDBConsoleorcl service is not started.
    More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3521.
    I try starting it again, and its says its already running.
    WTH?
    After installation, how does one get oracle working?
    Looking at services, I see that OracleDBConsoleorcl is stopped. If I try and start it as a server, about 20 secons later it stops again.
    Any ideas?
    Does one have to set any other environtment variables, and what should they be?
    If I try and login to the em console on 1158, it says
    Internal Error has occurred. Check the log file for details.
    Unfortuatnely, it doesnt say what log files or where they are. if I got to the sysman/log dir, there is nothing there.
    This is the 3rd attempt to install oracle, wasting some 3 days so far. The installer just doesnt work.
    Has anone ever got 11g R2 to work poperly on windows serer 2008?
    Right after the install, the DB and listener are up, I can connect to it via sqlplus or toad. However, As soon as I reboot the machine, from experience, I know the listener service will no longer start, and there will be no errors in any logs.
    Thanks for any help.
    Ive tried installing enterprise and standard edition - both fail in the same way. Ive tried installing as custom users in the Administrators group, and installing as Administrator. Both fail in the same way.

    user555967 wrote:
    Im not expecting any help, but I will document the pain just in case anyone from oracle read these forums.
    Having done the install with no errors, as said, the em console just doesnt work.
    Next problem is I cant even use sqlplus correctly. If I do this (as the user who installed oracle):
    sqlplus / as sysdba
    It gives:
    ERROR:
    ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
    So I cant even start/stop the DB.
    Im contemplating my options here. one is to switch back to Unix, and try installing oracle on that. The other is to port our entire app to mysql. Im not sure which is the quicker approach.
    "Switch back" to unix? Why would you ever have "downgraded" from unix to Windows in the first place? What's the cost of license and annual support for Oracle Linux vs. Windows?
    I avoid Windows every chance I get. Not because of the specific issue you are having (which actually is probably something rather simple), but simply because Windows is such a miserable excuse for a serve OS. I've always had Oracle on both nix and Windows in every shop I've worked as an Oracle dba.  In fact, my first oracle db's (ver 7.3) were on Windows.  I consider myself equally adept in both environments, but I still find nix far easier to work with as a server OS.
    There are no logs in sysman/logs

  • What's the Best Way to Create/View a VCF?

    Hello Everyone,
    I'm new to iCloud. All I want to do is get my contacts to display on my computer. A text file, loaded into Outlook, an Excel doc, whatever.
    So I went to iCloud, logged in, clicked Contacts... awesome, it's all there. I love it.
    Then I click on the gear symbol, click select all, click export vcf.
    "The First Contact and 231 others.vcf"
    Click save.
    Go to downloads and open vcf with Outlook -- only see the first contact -- where's the rest?
    Open with Windows Contacts -- 231 INDIVIDUAL contact boxes open up, some without the numbers, just the names.
    My Word, Excel, Acrobat cannot open vcf.
    Can anyone recommend a program that converts the vcf into a straight-forward readable list?
    So am I creating this vcf wrong in the first place?
    What do I need to do to just see a list of my contacts, just exported off my iPhone (iCloud), on my computer?
    I've tried to use iTunes, but I can see all my pictures... where's the list of my contacts?
    How come iTunes doesn't open up with a cool UX like iCloud?
    Then I could just click on Contacts, Import to Outlook (etc), done!
    It would be great if managing contacts with iTunes and iCloud was intuitive, simple and really easy.
    Thanks for all your help!

    Keep this VCF file that you created, just to be safe.
    Download the iCloud control panel for windows and sign in with your Apple ID.
    This will sync your iCloud contacts with Outlook via Internet. You don't have to sync them via iTunes. In fact you have to uncheck this option in iTunes under Info tab.

  • My itunes account was hacked July 15, 2010....What is Apple doing?

    The story stars off with a nice jester from my husband, a birthday gift of an iphone. 5 days later Apple announces they will be launching the new iphone 4g. I take back my 3gs iphone but AT&T had already run out of pre-order spots, forcing me to go on line to pre-order my new 4g iphone. Well, on July 15, 2010 I get a call from my bank letting me know there was highly irregular activity on my account...At this point I still don't even have a phone...45 charges for "Farm Story"...First, why are there no safety procedures in place after what just happened????? My bank account was hit for over $3500.00, all for the same item...Apple tells me it's out of there hands and they are letting the charges go through and to let my bank handle it. WOW, this just seems wrong. I am told it could take another 2 weeks to clear up. To make matters worse I am going on vacation and unable to get money out...pay my bills...to live...No one seems to care!!! I think Apple should do something. Are there other people out there with a story like this...If they knew why is this still happening???

    Yep, the credit card company is responsible for fraudulent charges, not the retailer. My wallet was stolen last year. I figured it out 34 minutes after it was stolen and in that brief ammount of time, the thief had racked up $5,000 at Sears and another $3000 at Best Buy. Neither retailer was responsible. The bank handled removing the charges and the bank deals with the retailer.......
    I know it bites to have some charges you're not responsible for. The good news is, you're not responsible for them and they will be removed......

  • I want to transfer my Windows files from my Clickfree external drive to my new iMac. iMac recognizes the drive but won't read the files. What should I do? My PC hard drive is dead so I can't hook up my iMac to that.

        I'm switching from Windows to iOS. But my new iMac won't allow me to transfer my Windows files on my Clickfree HD425 over to the iMac. It initialy didn't even recognize my hard drive during set up, so I manually went through Finder where it recognized the Clickfree drive. But my files wouldn't appear. I can't go back to my original Windows computer because the hard drive crashed, and that's why I bought this new iMac in the first place. What should I do? As a Mac newbie who was reluctant to exit the Windows world, I don't want my original babystep into the iOS world soured by my first experience.

    Hi Rick, & a warm welcome!

  • Why is the menu structure different for different OS environments? What would it take to make them the same across the board?

    The questions in the title pretty well say it all. Each version of the program works differently and wondering what it would take to standardized them for being the same across the board. Menu items are in different locations depending on what OS you are using. Putting the cursors in the URL line works differently from one OS to the next. It would be nice to create an equal standard for working under all OS types.

    Firefox follows the convention for each OS as to where it places and what it calls menu items. The most noticeable is the Options/Preferences dialog.
