Quick question when purchasing prints through iPhoto

Just a real quick question.
When I select photos I want to purchase from my iphoto collection, i know it hooks into Kodak. My question is, is an account created for me on Kodak's site that keeps my collection and allows me to log in from anywhere to view photos, buy photos? Does it allow me to share albums that friends and family can view and buy photos from as well?
I've never used the service before, but I would like to, assuming it allows me to do the above stuff I mentioned.
Thanks,
Jason

Create an album and drag the photos you want to print to it, crop them to the print dimensions, select all of the photos in the album and order your prints

Why does my PDF look so CRAPPY when I print through acrobat???

I have been having troubles with exporting a PDF from an Indesign file.. when I printed the exported PDF from acrobat, text was printing out very pixelated. I was exporting the file in indesign as a press quality pdf. The text looked fine when I viewed it in acrobat and zoomed in, but when I printed it out it looked very pixelated and not as black as it had when I had printed the file directly from indesign.
so this is what I've figured it out so far... I was exporting to PDF in indesign then opening it in adobe arobat pro and printing from there... for some reason when I went into my advanced print settings in acrobat, it was set to "print as image: 100 dpi." I changed it and it printed out better but not perfect. To double check it was adobe that was causing the issue, I opened and printed the pdf through mac preview. This looked perfect - - exactly like it did when I printed through INDD.
So my questions are, 1> WHY does it automatically printing as an image 100 dpi in adobe? and 2> how can I change this setting so when my client opens it up, they dont have to mess with any of the print settings to get it to look how it's supposed to? Is this a setting I can change when I save the file? I want to make sure it prints out correctly because one of the fonts used is ultralight and can look very very light if printed incorrecty. It looks perfect when I print through preview, but even printing as an image in 600 dpi through acrobat pro, the ultralight font looks lighter and more faded than it should (and than it does in the preview and INDD printed files). If i unselect the "print as image" checkbox, the ultralight text looks better but still not perfect. So that would make my second question >> WHY is the print quality worse when I print through adobe, and how can I remedy this? Any ideas??? Any help much appreciated!
**using acrobat pro 9.4.6 on mac osx 10.6.8

The PDF file itself does not control the "print as image" preference, which should always be turned OFF unless there's a specific need to rasterize the entire page, and is turned off by default in all Acrobat and Adobe Reader installations.
What's the filetype for the ultralight font and what export setting* are you using in ID? If you're exporting to earlier than PDF1.7, OpenType fonts will be converted and may experience some small changes in shape if their hint definitions aren't done right.
*As a side note, bear in mind that InDesign does not use any part of Acrobat when exporting PDFs, so questions specific to that stage in the process should be posted to the InDesign forums.

Unable to order prints through iphoto

I am unable to order prints through iphoto. Everytime I try to download and order with 1-click it starts downloading and then says there is a problem with one of my files. Is my order too large (over 500 megabits)? Are certain files to large? Some of my files are in the RAW format or were taken in RAW format. I have tried leaving out photos that have the RAW title showing in iphoto and still no luck. Some of the files, even though noted as jpeg files are 4+megs. Does anyone have an idea on what is going on? I am using the latest iphoto which is 6.04.

I have a similar issue lately. When trying to order 130 4x6 prints the upload process dies after 10-12 photos and there is nothing you can do about it. The retry function does not restart the upload, it just hangs.
When using Activity Monitor to monitor the upload speed (I am on COMCAST cable) I see 45-50kB/s for the first 10 pics and then it dies - goes to 0 - unless you do something else on the computer that touches the network.
No other app is having network or internet connectivity problems.
Part of the problem might be the fact that the ever increasing file sizes are making the uploads slower and slower. Those 130 pics of mine are 230MB+ and thats just from a small 6MP point and shoot Canon camera.
Iphoto realy needs a much more robust upload and reststart logic. Like iTunes that can download songs and video in pieces and restarts as often as you want wherever it left of, iPhoto needs a similar function to deal with larger uploads.
Now the first attempt to fix the issue is to go break the order into 10 individual orders - only problem: Instead of paid 9.99 for express shipping you pay a total of 99.90 for shipping as every order has an individual shipping charge.
Any ideas for a work around?

Some quick questions before purchase of MBP

Hey Guys/Gals,
I've been a PC user all my life, but will now be making a permanent switch to Macs. I've been wanting to buy a MBP since they have been released, but have been hesitant (like many others I think...) about the issues of whine, extreme heat, warped screens etc...
With the recent updates of the logic board and even battery, I think I'm ready to go for it. I just had some quick questions before I place my order:
1. I could order my MBP from the computer store at my university. Do you guys think that will get me the newest possible MBP or will they maybe get me one that they have had in stock for ages? I really don't want to get stuck with an outdated logic board and/or battery. Is it safest just to order directly from the site?
2. Although the issue with really hot MBPs seems to have gotten better, I am still quite shocked that people say that temperatures well above 70 Celsius are "within spec". I understand that Apple officially states this and that the Intel chip can handle up to 100 Celsius, but this seems crazy to me Basically, I want to ask if I am correct in my observations that the new Intel chips don't get much hotter than other chips around, but rather Apple has chosen to set the temperature mark that sets off the fans pretty hight (around the 70s if I remember correctly?)
I would assume that in following their "mission" of creating beautifully designed computers, Apple also wants to have a really silent one. Now I'm all for a quiet machine, but I feel as though if fans were on either (a) all the time or (b) when the CPU reaches the high 50s lots of people would be happier.
Anyway, it's just a thought. I noticed there are lots of experts around here, so I'm just interested to hear what you guys think about this approach that Apple seems to have taken. I don't think the heat will stop me from getting this amazing notebook, but it certainly is a little frustrating.
Any responses are greatly appreciated.

No matter where you take possession there's no assurance of when the machine was manufactured. There is really just as good a chance of getting a perfectly good computer regardless of place of purchase. If there is a problem it's covered under warranty. You can have the computer replaced within the first two weeks. Afterwards they will replace or repair. Without Applecare's extended warranty the computer is warranted for one year after purchase.

You are wrong in your assumption. The Core Duo's maximum temperature is 125C before shutdown. Normal operating temperatures according to Intel's own documentation is 50-70C under average load. MBPs under heavy load will typically reach core temperatures over 80C. Then there's the added heat from the hard drive and GPU. The aluminum case acts as a partial heat radiator hence the case temperatures can get high. The MBP User Guide specifically states this and issues a warning about using the computer on one's lap.

Now I'm all for a quiet machine, but I feel as though if fans were on either (a) all the time or (b) when the CPU reaches the high 50s lots of people would be happier.
In fact the fans in the MBP are very quiet at least mine are. Unless you are in the hardware design business with intimate knowledge of using Core Duo chips in portable computers, then your observations, although certainly your opinion, are not based on anything factual.

More likely there are a lot of people around here who think they are experts. As the remark goes, "An 'expert' derives from ex, meaning 'has been', and spert, meaning 'drip under pressure.'"
You'll read lots of opinions on these forums. Don't take for granted that everything you read is factual or truth. A lot of the opinions expressed are without any basis in fact.

Quick Question: When to use ( ) and when to use [ ] and why the ( *)

Hi all,
A quick question that i'm sure is very simple but is slightly confusing me. I've just started trying to learn Objective-C and am a little confused by ( ) and [ ].
I get that you use the [ ] brackets when you want something specific from an object, i.e.
[ textField textColor ]
and that you use ( ) brackets for things like:
if ( x == y) {
But I get confused when I see things like:
NSLog(@"some text here");
Why does that get ( ) brackets and why is it not [ ].
Also another point of confusion, creating methods... Why are some methods done like:
- (void)awakeFromNib
And others done like (with the additional "*" added):
- (NSString *)stringvalue
As I said, I'm sure this is very simple and obvious, but it is confusing me slightly.
Thanks in advance!

Adam:
As you already know, square brackets are used to send a message to an object, so if a object like myObject implements the method -doSomething, you can call it with:
\[myObject doSomething\];
The other use square for brackets have is to index C-style arrays, such as:
aValue = anArray\[10\]; // Get the 10-element of an array
However, because C-style arrays are rarely used in Cocoa applications (use NSArray instead) you will not see this situation often.
Parenthesis in expressions are used to group and prioritize, such as:
x = 10 * (3 + 5); // x = 80
If () statements use it to delimit the test expression. Same with while (). for () uses it to enclose the limits and increment statements, etc.
The other important use of parenthesis is in calling a C function:
result = foo(3);
means that you are calling the function named foo with the argument 3, and storing the the return value in the variable 'result'. This is different from a message because a C function is not a method of an object. They exist independently of any objects. NSLog() is a function defined within Cocoa but it is not a method. So, you call it with the traditional C function call syntax. Cocoa defines other functions like NSStringFromRect(), which takes an NSRect as argument and returns a pointer to an NSString.
And that leads me to your last question. Some methods return simple types, like int, float, or void (i.e. returns no value). These methods will have prototypes like:
\- \(void\)returnNothing;
\- (int)returnInteger;
Other methods return pointers to types, like:
\- (int \*)returnPointerToInteger;
\- (void \*)returnPointerToAnything; // In obj-C one typically uses id instead of void*
Returning whole objects from methods has problems and it is better to just return a pointer (the address in memory) instead:
\- (NSString *)makeAString;
The method above returns a pointer to an NSString rather than the entire object.
Good luck with your learning,
Juan-Pablo

Quick question: When are xib files loaded?

As applications grow in scope and interface breadth, I wonder if separating out optional interfaces into different nib files could improve performance.
I can't tell if it does, however, or if it supports multiple nib files per project just for organization or something.
If it does, does it:
-Only load the nib after the object is initialized?
-Only load the nib after the object is visible?
-Load the nib file multiple times for different object instances? Redraw it or something?
What is the primary performance hit for nib files? Their size, graphical complexity (opacities and stuff), something else?

NIB files are full of archived objects. Using the initWithNib: method of a viewController and remembering to release an IBOutlets in the dealloc method will insure proper memory handling. To get to your question, when you load a NIB it will bring all objects in that NIB into memory. So if you design your whole interface in one NIB, then you are requiring the entire interface to load at once. The main reason to split your interface into multiple NIBs is to avoid this hit. This is more of an issue on the iPhone than on a Mac, but the principle is still the same. And if you create multiple viewController objects and initWithNib: them, then you will have multiple copies in memory. Likewise if you use the NSBundle class to explicitly load NIBs, each load call will create new objects. So if you have an interface element you reuse a lot, you can load it from one NIB many times. But the memory comment still holds true -- each load allocates memory for the NIB objects.

Ordering Kodak prints through iPhoto - what kind of paper do they use?

What kind of paper is used when you use the Kodak printing services in iPhoto - matte, gloss?? Seems there is not an option to select a choice.

I'm sorry I don't know, but it makes totally sense to suggest this to be changed in the future. I don't know what I would order trough iPhoto, so I simply avoid disappointment...
I'm curious too, most probably: glossy

Ordering prints through iphoto

How do I "enable" my order prints button - my "order book" button has a "+" sign and works but my order prints has no "+" and does not work.

No - the easiest way is to make an album of the photos you want to order and when you have them all collected select all of the photos in that album and order

Editing doesn't bring up PSE13 when requesting it through iPhoto

I have an iMac version 1010.1. I just installed PSE 13. I would like to store my photos in iPhoto but edit my photos with PSE 13. I set up a link, i.e. in preferences, I asked that when I hit "edit" at the bottom of the page in iPhoto, it would take me directly to PSE 13. I did this with no difficulty in an earlier version of PSE (9), but nothing happens when trying it with PSE13. Please respond by email, since I don't come to this discussion forum often: [email protected] Thank you!

You need to first do the set-up in iPhoto prefs.
- Open iPhoto and choose iPhoto >> Preferences.
- Select the General tab.
- Click the Edit Photo menu and select In Application.
Then navigate to:
Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 13/Support Files/Photoshop Elements 13 Editor
Highlight the editor application (Photoshop Elements 13 Editor not Adobe Photoshop Elements 13) and click Open
Then close iPhoto Prefs.
N.B. Make sure you choose the application not the alias
You should now be able to edit normally from the iPhoto Library e.g.
Double-click to edit in iPhoto editor.
Control (right) - click on a thumbnail to edit in elements editor.

Prints ordered through iphoto are too dark

I ordered some prints through iphoto and they came back very dark and washed out. The photos are in the sRGB colorspace and my monitor is calibrated with the spyderpro2. When I print locally to my 3 year old HP printer they look exactly as they should on the screen.
In these forums, users have been very pleased with the color matching provided by apple print services so I know that the quality is possible.
Is there something that I am missing?
Thanks in advance.
