Problem Scanning & Returning to end ( Ascending ) order of iphoto 6 Library

My iphoto library is set to View/by film roll/Ascending so I am always viewing the latest roll of film when I open up iphoto 6 or download from a camera.
This used to happen when I scanned images too. NOW iphoto returns to the beginning of the iphoto library instead of the end where I have to scroll to the end of the iphoto library to see the new roll of scanned images. This did not used to happen. This is annoying.
Is this because iphoto is reaching some limitation or ??????
Is there a fix or adjustment that will reset the library to return to the end and show me the new film roll each time I do a scan ?
I boutght the iphoto8 but have not installed it yet as I see a number of issues at stake. I do have everything backed up via a LaCie 500gig and SuperDuper! software.

Bic,
Are you scanning directly into the iPhoto Library folder? If so, then try scanning to a Desktop folder, and dragging that into the iPhoto window when you finish the scans.
Have you tried deleting the iPhoto pref file? Close iPhoto first. Look in Home/ Library/ Preferences and remove com.apple.iPhoto.plist. You'll have to reset the preferences back to your liking, but other than that there's no harm done. A bad pref file can cause a number of unrelated, weird problems.
Regards.

Error message: There is a problem accessing one or more files in your iPhoto library. Do you want iPhoto to repair permissions for this library for you?

I have been using iPhoto for years. Today when I tried to upload pictures from camera, I received the above error message. I select "Repair", enter my password, and then a message "iPhoto was unable to repair permissions for the library" appears. I select "Quit" and it closes iPhoto. Quit is the only option. What has happened? I have tried to access the photos via other avenues such as uploading to gmail, and the photos load fine. I have about 28,000 photos.
I do not know what version of iPhoto I am using as I am unable to access the software. I have a iMac OS X (10.7.5). What should I do?

Select the iPhoto application in the Applications folder and type Command+i to bring up its Info Window. There will tell the version number. If it's iPhoto 9 or later apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
Fix #2
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 Home/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: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Hard Drive Crashed and Ended Up with older iphoto- Library wont transfer

I have been using my macbook for two years now and have used iphoto since I got it to start saving all my pictures (some 6 to 7 thousand pictures) though I never did check what version it was. I had made a back up of my iPhoto Library and good thing I did because my hard drive crashed.
I had kept all my photos organized by Events, rather than dates and such because I scanned photos in here and there as well. However, after I had my new operating system installed, I plugged in my external drive to transfer my iPhoto library into iPhoto (by clicking on the iphoto icon while holding option/shift to choose a library) but it came up with an arrow message saying that I needed a new version of iPhoto for it to work. Sure enough, when I just let iPhoto open up with a new library it would not in any way let me sort photos by events, just by year.
I tried reinstalling iPhoto with the original disks my macbook came with and even downloaded an update. This may not seem like a huge problem because thankfully i still have all my pictures but they are all over the place and organizing all of the pictures again would take a ton of time.
I do not get how I started with a newer version of iPhoto that let me organize my photos by events compared to the one I have now that came on my installation disk. I dont want to pay for a new copy of iPhoto if my macbook already came with it installed when I first bought it but I want my Library and its Events and albums to work (which it does because I tried it on a newer macbook) Any ideas? Thanks

Okay Sory about that. Here is the problem- i think- When I bought my laptop in May of 2007, the iPhoto that came preinstalled was a better version than the one that came on my Mac OS X install disk that I now have to use since my hard drive crashed.
In iPhoto 6, you can not sort photos by Events, only by date. In iPhoto 7.1 you can because when I tried opening my library on another computer with that version of iPhoto by holding down option/shift and choosing my library from my external drive, it worked since all my named events showed up.
I never bought an update for iLife, nor did I ever have my computer worked on. I only downloaded the free updatess for my specific version from the internet, what ever version it was.
I have always been able to sort my pictures by Events because when I bought my macbook, I immediately put pictures on it (my Library can prove that). I really do not want to buy the iLife 08' if I had already had the better version of iPhoto on my computer before it crashed.
I guess, is it possible that I did have iPhoto 7.something installed on my computer when I bought it (or at least an iPhoto that can sort pictures by events, since that is the main problem) and have an older version on the install disk it came with? That is the only conclusion I can reach.
Thank you for your help.

Problems with iphoto library

I'm having problems with duplicate photo's showing up in my iphoto library. first of all how do i get rid of them. can i just go through them all and delete the dupes without them returning. second what caused them? i also have a few questions in how to use iphoto in general. how do i import existing photos to my iphoto library. if i have a folder of pictures and add it to my library, iphoto makes a copy of them in the iphoto library folder right? does that mean that after they get imported i can delete the original folder to avoid duplicates? also, say i have a folder named my pictures or imported into the iphoto library, if i add a few pictures to that my pictures folder, how do i add only those new pictures to the iphoto library? do i just add the whole folder again, and iphoto will know which ones are already there and which are new? oh and by the way, i messed up and moved stuff around in my iphoto library directory before knowing any better.

--First thing to know and remember is this...Do not drag any images, folder of images into the iPhoto Library in the Finder. Images have to be imported into iPhoto within the application. Do not scan images and save them into the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder. Save them to another location such as the Pictures folder or even the desktop. You can then import them into iPhoto.
--All images that you import are sown in the library view. You can choose how you want to view, by rolls, by date, by rating, etc. When you put images in an Album, slideshow, book, etc, you are actually just putting pointers to those images in the library. You are not adding more images. If you delete an image from the Album it will still be in the library. If you delete an image from the library it is deleted from iPhoto's database and your hard drive (unless you have it backed up somewhere else)
--You have a folder of images on your hard drive and want to import them into iPhoto. Drag the folder of images into an open iPhoto Library window and the folder of photos will be copied into the library, resulting in a new roll with the name of the folder. You now have two copies of those photos, the ones in iPhoto's database and the ones on your desktop. You can keep the ones on your desktop that you just imported as backup or you can delete that folder.
-- you scan a picture/pictures and save it in a folder. You cannot scan directly into iPhoto or the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder.
You want all your photos in iPhoto so you import them into iPhoto.
Now you have two copies of that picture/pictures, so you can delete the originals that were in the scanned folder and keep the one/ones that were imported into iPhoto.
-- You download pictures from your camera into iPhoto.
There is now one copy of each of the pictures.
You want to change something about a picture you imported, such as
cropping it or changing the size, or changing the orientation.
Once you do that to a picture, you now have two copies of the picture
in iPhoto, the original and the edited one. The edited one will be in the library organize view. The original is packed away in an Original folder in your iPhoto Library folder under the date of the roll. You can always revert to the original by control clicking on the photo and choose "revert to orginal" You will not have this choice if you used iPhoto Diet to get rid of the Originals.
(a quick note on cropping within iPhoto...when you are in edit mode, you automatically will be in the crop mode with cross hairs to highlight the crop area. To finish cropping you must click the crop button and then go back to library view and your cropped picture will be there.
3.You want to use Photoshop or another graphic program to edit a picture in your iPhoto library.
You can open up prefs for iPhoto and choose "when double clicking on
photo ..do" choose "other" and select Photoshop. Now you can edit all
pictures in your iPhoto library in PhotoShop by double clicking. If you save the photo with the same name and as a flattened file it will be saved right into iPhoto and you will see the changes. If you don't want to save it into iPhoto then do a "save as" and save to the desktop. You will then have the original photo still in iPhoto and your new edited photo on the desktop.
Or, with iPhoto open, you can drag a picture from the library window
to your desktop (you see a + sign on the pic you are dragging). You now
have two of the same picture, one in the iPhoto library and one on your desktop. You can open up the one on your desktop in any graphic program and work on it. The one in iPhoto stays the same. You can also share/export the picture/pictures to your desktop or folder to work on them or do batch processing, etc. You will still have the originals in your iPhoto Library.
Or, you can open up the ~/Pictures/iPhoto Library/folders and option drag any
picture out of the folder to your desktop.

Problem of opening iphoto library in other softwares

Hello,
As it is said in the title, i can't open the iPhoto library (i'm using iphoto 6.0.6 with os X 10.5.2) in other softwares, i mean, the photo viewer in mail, the photo viewer in iMovie, and also the photo viewer in the finder (datas file), when you want to download something on the web. But for example on data file, i can see the music, i can see the sequences also. The only thing i can't see is the photos from iPhotos.
I have to say, without that problem my iphoto is working totaly normaly, i don't have any problem.
I didn't found any support on the web or on the mac website, so i'm afraid i'm the only one having this problem.
Can you help me ?

Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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.

Accessing the records in ascending order using index hint

I am getting a problem in selecting the rows using the index hint which in i want to query in the ascending order.
for eg.
select /*+ index(temp_itr_header,tmp_itrhdr_1#IDX2) */ person_id
from temp_itr_header

Oracle knows that it doesn't have to resort data if it accessed individual rows from an index with the same sort order. In other words, adding the ORDER BY clause need not cause Oracle to do any extra work. Adding the ORDER BY does guarantee that the results will be sorted and will tend to cause Oracle to use the index, assuming it can avoid the sort that way. If you don't have an ORDER BY, Oracle is free to return rows in whatever order it would like regardless of your hint.
If you want to use the index hint, the syntax is
SELECT /*+ INDEX(temp_itr_header <<index name>>) */Note that you do not want to have a comma in your hint. Of course, if your statistics are accurate, you shouldn't need to resort to a hint here-- the CBO should pick the most efficient path.

Apache: showing images in ascending order by name

hi:
i have several detail pages where i show images contained in
a folder:
$folder = dir($path);
while ($folderEntry = $folder->read()){
if ($folderEntry <> "." && $folderEntry
<> ".." &&
substr($folderEntry, -6, 2) <> "00") {
echo '<li><img src="'.$path.$folderEntry.'"
/></li>';
$folder->close();
in the local server they appear in the way i want, in
ascending order by
name (img_01.jpg, img_02.jpg, img_03.jpg, ...) but in the
remote server
they appear in, apparently, random order
i activated FancyIndexing in the httpd.conf file but it
doesn't solved
the problem:

directory
listings.
# FancyIndexing is whether you want fancy directory indexing
or
standard

i know i can store the filenames names in an array an sort it
but i
prefer to control it in the server

Templeton's suggestion is best if needing help with Microsoft Entourage. Since I know the answer is "not possible" I can at least steer you toward an AppleScript that will give you a workaround. Have a look here <http://www.barryw.net/weblog/files/category-5.html>.
Further questions about this script should be directed either to its author or to Microsoft's Entourage newsgroup <http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.mac.office.entourage>.

How to sort the arry value in ascending order

I have a string array where i need to sort the below values in ascending order in the same format...can anyone give me clue on this?
9.3
3.1
9.1
19.1
19
9.4
9.1.1
the sorted order should be
3.1
9.1
9.1.1
9.3
9.4
19
19.1

You may have easier luck writing your own comparator for this. These are headings in a table of contents, right?
Write a comparator that tokenizes a string on the '.' character, or use a StringBuffer to remove them, and then order the elements according to the combined numbers. Since alphanumeric would order this list as you want it anyway you could just order that way once the '.' are removed.
In other words your comparator would do this in the "compare" method:
public class MyComparator implements Comparator, java.io.Serializable {
private static Comparator stringComparator = java.text.Collator.getInstance();
...constructor(s), your own private "instance" variable of type MyComparator, a getInstance() method of your own, yadda yadda...
public int compare(Object item1, Object item2) {
try {
value1 = removePeriods((String)item1);
value2 = removePeriods((String)item2);
if (value1 == null) {
return (value2 == null) ? 0 : (-1);
return compare(value1, value2);
} catch (ClassCastException cce) {
System.err.println("Wrong Object Type, JackAss!");
protected int compare(String str1, String str2) {
return MyComparator.stringComparator.compare(str1, str2);
private String removePeriods(String value) {
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(value);
int decimalIndex = value.indexOf('.');
while (decimalIndex != -1) {
sb.delete(decimalIndex, (decimalIndex + 1));
}

Problem with return value of stored function

Hi,
I've made a stored function that insert a new row in a table and return the primary key (see at the end of the message the function script).
In VS 2005 with Visual basic, using the designer, I've created a dataset containing a tableAdapter to be able to use the Pl/SQL function.
My problem is I can't get the proper return value. The VB code below works without error except that I get 0 as value.
What's wrong?
Cheers,

Dim myAddSession As New ICISDataSetTableAdapters.AddSessionTableAdapter
Dim intSessionId As Integer
intSessionId = myAddSession.ADD_SESSION(tbxUsername.Text, _
tempFolder.Substring(tempFolder.LastIndexOf("\") + 1), _
"toto", Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("COMPUTERNAME"), _
myLevelAccess.icisUserId, myLevelAccess.levelId)
The debugger tells me that the ADD_SESSION function return value is Object.

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION ICISSEC.add_session (

Nope, can't do that in the signature. You'll need to handle that by validating the passed parameters at the start of the function.
It's simple enough. In your case you might just as well test for NULL and fail the function like this:
    FUNCTION date_post_message(
            user_lock_in IN NUMBER,
            form_type_in IN NUMBER DEFAULT 0 ,
            date_in      IN DATE)
        RETURN BOOLEAN
    IS
        v_num NUMBER(1);
    BEGIN
        dbms_output.put_line('Value of parameters : user_lock_in : '||user_lock_in || ' : form_type_in : '||form_type_in||' : date_in : '||date_in );
        IF user_lock_in = 1 THEN
            RETURN FALSE;
        END IF;
        IF form_type_in IS NULL THEN
            RETURN FALSE;
        ELSIF form_type_in NOT IN (1,2) THEN
            RETURN FALSE;
        END IF;
        RETURN TRUE;
    EXCEPTION
    WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
        RETURN FALSE;
    END;In other use cases I would declare a local variable and process it like this:
        IF form_type_in IS NULL THEN
            l_form_type := 0;
        ELSE
             l_form_type := form_type_in;
        END IF;Obviously the code should use the local variable rather than the parameter.
Validating the values passed in parameters at the start of a function is good practice. If you really want to go to town, read about Design By Contract.

Output to appear in ascending order

Could someone please help me to get the contents of my output file in ascending order.
I am reading a file mnf.xml kept inside my jar, the contents of it are
<assets>
</assets>I am writing the contents of the file mnf.xml to an output file, and am also adding the pdf filenames found in the directory.
The contents of the output file after running the program are
<assets>
<pdf_files name="assets/123_001_ch_03.pdf"/>
<pdf_files name="assets/123_001_ch_02.pdf"/>
<pdf_files name="assets/123_001_ch_01.pdf"/>
</assets>
But I need my output to be in the following order
<assets>
<pdf_files name="assets/123_001_ch_01.pdf"/>
<pdf_files name="assets/123_001_ch_02.pdf"/>
<pdf_files name="assets/123_001_ch_03.pdf"/>
</assets>
My code is
void fileMNF(File RootDir, String jTextField1Text)
     String filename=jTextField1Text.substring(0,jTextField1Text.lastIndexOf("."))+"_mnf.xml";
     String Assetsdir=RootDir+"\\"+"assets";
     File files=new File(Assetsdir);
     String[] lists=files.list();
     try
          int val;
          char ch;
          InputStream is=getClass().getResourceAsStream("/Inputs/mnf.xml");
          File dstfile=File.createTempFile("mnf", ".xml");
          dstfile.deleteOnExit();
          FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(dstfile);
          int b;
          while((b = is.read()) != -1)
               fos.write(b);
          fos.close();

          File outputfile=new File(filename);

private String PDFLineInsert(String line, String PDF)
     String res = "";
     res = line.replace("<assets>", "<assets>\n\r<pdf_files name=\"assets/"+PDF+"\"/>");
     return res;

Your PDFLineInsert method is inserting your lines at the beginning of the file.
You should change your logic to write the new lines as you get them. something like this:
          while ((line=in.readLine()) != null)
               if(line.startsWith("<assets>"))
                   out.write(line);
                   out.newLine();
                    for(int i=0;i<lists.length;i++)
                         if(lists.endsWith(".pdf"))
                              out.write("<pdf_files name=\"assets/"+lists[i]+"\"/>");
                              out.newLine();
               out.write(line);
               out.newLine();
               out.flush();
          in.close();
          out.close();

Problem scanning with Image Capture

I have an Epson Photo NX110 all-in-one printer and scanner. I use the Image Capture software that comes with Snow Leopard to scan in photos using my printer's scanner. I have scanned lots of old photos using this set up and it has worked fine. About half an hour ago, I scanned in three photos and it worked fine. These are all 35mm 4 inch by 6 inch color photos.
I am now trying to scan in another old photo, but the height and width of the photo keep being set to zero by Image Capture. As a result, the scanned TIFF file ends up being a blank image. I am using the default settings and the same work flow I have used before, but this particular photo of a relative holding her baby won't seem to scan in properly, even though it looks fine in the overview on the screen. I am using the default 300 dpi setting. This is just a photo of a woman sitting at her dining room table holding her baby in a fairly well lighted room. There is nothing out of the ordinary about this photo as far as its lighting or composition and the photo is in great condition. I tried moving the photo to a different location on the scanner surface, but the result was the same.
If anyone has any ideas on how to fix this problem, please let me know.

I spend my summers scanning old photographs and letters, and this happens to me, too. Sometimes a photo refuses to scan properly. No idea why.
I don't know what made me think to try this, or why it works, but if the photo is less than 8 1/2 x 11, set the photo on the glass as usual, then lay a piece of paper on top of the photo on the glass. Printed paper seems to work better, so I usually use a draft page from a newsletter, or some such. Place this paper printed-side down, so the scanner will be copying the printed stuff. Scan as usual, and when it offers you the chance to crop the image, crop out the paper, keeping only the photo.
Like I said, I don't know why this works, but in most cases, it does. I hope this helps! I know very well how aggravating it is to not be able to scan a perfectly ordinary photograph or letter.
