PLEASE help!! my 2008 iphoto problem
Hello. About a month ago i made the tragic mistake of deleting the iphoto application from my computer. Now i have gotten the '08 iphoto but when i install it, it tells me that:
"Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process may take several minutes depending on the number of photos in the library."
But when i click on the upgrade i get the error message:
"The iphoto library is damaged and cannot be upgraded"
What do i do?
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the following in order as needed:
1- Rebuild the library with iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 -Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 -Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File->Rebuild Library menu option
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: It may take some time to create the new library if you have a lot of photos. Report back on how long it took and how many photos you have in the library so we can give other users an idea of how long it may take.
2 - create a new library and import the Originals folder from the old library as follows:
Creating a new library while preserving the rolls from the original.
Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
Drag the Originals folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
This will create a new library with the same rolls as the original library. However dates on the rolls may be different but can be edited as you would the roll title.
Once this is completed you can delete the iPhoto library folder from the desktop. If desired, you can keep the older library folder to try other fixes on it.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

I have a problem with my iphone 4. My 3G always stays activated but I lose my network signal. The bars all get lost and I'm not able to receive / send sms, mms or phone calls. Could you guys please help me fix this problem? Ios 5.1.1
I haven't gotten a new sim card because the problem has been presenting itself in various cards not only mine. So far, all I've done is reset my network settings.
Last night, I turned off the 3G tab and it had all the signal bars. Today, I did the network reset and it's working apparently. But like I said before, previously the bars just disappear and the iphone only has the 3G activated. -

Everytime I open firefox, all words or letters below the toolbar half inch to 3 inch from right to left are not clickable(not working). but they are working or clickable on google crhome or internet explorer. please help to resolve this problem. thanks!
The '''''Yahoo! Toolbar''''' and the '''''Babylon''''' extension have been reported to cause that problem. They seem to invisibly extend downward over the top of the web page display area. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

We have a configuration of CUCM 6.1. We have 24 voice ports (FXO) configured in H 323 registered with the call manger. A CUE 3.2 configured for IVR and mail box. Gateway is a Cisco 3845 and the IOS version is 12.4(15) T10
The problem is whenever a conference is configured with an outside number the FXO port is not releasing after the call disconnects. It is not FXO disconnect problem. This happens only when a conference is taking place. There is no problem with any other outside or inside calls.
I am attaching the configuration of Gateway. Please help me with the problem, I am very much thankful for you that.The Family pack covers upto 5 computers, other Install Disc cover one computer only.

Z10 not working at all please help in solving this problem
Z10 has been stuck in "Preparing Blackberry HUB" mode for hours despite several restarts and battery pulls. Five swipe solution to restarting HUB only results in screen flashing on and off. Frustrated. Any ideas appreciated. Phone calls too not working, cant receive email, text messages or launch applications although preview screen seems to be working.
Have reviewed other threads for solution with no success. Would rather not use security wipe option.
Please help in sloving this problemI would start with a Security Wipe:
To perform a Security Wipe please follow the instructions below. Be sure and use BB Link to make a full backup before proceeding with the wipe:
http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB33591
Once the wipe is complete you can restore your backup. Keep in mind that data in the backup may be the source of the original problem and restoring it may restore the problem, as well. To alleviate this I recommend not restoring the Settings portion of the backup.
If that doesn't work then use an autoloader to reload the OS:

First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:

Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative. -
