QuickView is great - except for the "add to iPhoto" button

Is there any way to get rid of that "add to iPhoto" button in the Finder's QuickView?
We have no use for iPhoto but we keep accidentally hitting that button instead of the "Full Screen" button. Then we have to wait while iPhoto launches, then wait again while we quit it.
I thought of trashing iPhoto (after archiving it) so it doesn't launch but i'm sure some system update is going to freak out when it can't find the iPhoto bundle.

no, deleting iphoto is completely safe. you don't have to have it at all.

    Some keys don't work as expected
    From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    From the View menu, choose Speech.
    Click the Text to Speech tab.
    If "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" is enabled, the key or key combination set to speak text cannot be used for other purposes or used to type text--click Set Key and change it to a less-commonly used key combination (try to use modifier keys such as Shift, Command, Option, and Control). Or, disable the "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" option.
    Click the Universal Access pane in System Preferences, click the Keyboard tab.
    Make sure that Slow Keys is turned off. With Slow Keys on, you need to press a key for a longer period of time for it to be recognized.
    In the Universal Access pane, click the Mouse tab, and make sure Mouse Keys is turned off. With Mouse Keys enabled, you cannot use the Numeric Keypad to enter numbers--instead the keypad moves the pointer (cursor). (There is an option to enable Mouse Keys with five presses of the Option key; you may want to turn that option off to avoid accidentally enabling it.) If Mouse Keys is enabled and you are using a keyboard with no numeric keypad or Num Lock function, see Unable to type while Mouse Keys is enabled in Mac OS X.
    If the function keys on the top row of the keyboard are not working as expected, see Mac OS X: How to change the behavior of function keys.
    If the issue persists, use Keyboard Viewer to help isolate the issue:
    Click the Language & Text pane (Mac OS X v10.6) or International pane (Mac OS X v10.5.8 or earlier) in System Preferences.
    Click the Input Sources tab (or Input Menu tab in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
    Click the Keyboard & Character Viewer "On" checkbox to select it (click the Keyboard Viewer "On" checkbox in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
    From the Input (flag) menu, choose Show Keyboard Viewer.
    If the keyboard is connected and detected by Mac OS X, the keys you type will highlight in the Keyboard Viewer window. Open TextEdit (or any text application), and try to type something using the keys that were previously not responding to see if they highlight in Keyboard Viewer.
    Start from the Mac OS X Install Disc, choose Terminal from the Utilities menu and test the keys which were previously not working.  If the keys work while started from the Install disc, then the keyboard itself is working correctly.  Use Mac OS X: How to troubleshoot a software issue to isolate the software issue that may be causing the keys to not respond.

  • Class not found exception for the startup class defined.

    iam using weblogic server 10 and bea jrockit 1.5.0.12.
    i have created a startup class in the admin console for a web project and i have deployed the war file using the console in a user defined domains, user project directory.
    when i start the server, iam getting class not found exception for the startup class.
    But, the startup class is available in the web archive (war). how should we add the classes and jars in the war to the classpath in setDomainEnv.sh or is there any other setting available in the console to enable this.

    Hello Julius,
    yes sure, we can move this post to the NW admin forum. I have already posted similar thread on sun forums. I was hoping that someone from SAP SDN already tackled this problem and if not someone specialized in J2EE Engine could troubleshoot me from the class problem I'm getting. I don't know if it's specific from the agent or if this ClassNotFound is a general SAP J2EE Engine error relating to a library not correclty defined.
    Kind regards,

  • HT1206 what happened to my iTunes library, it disappeared except for the purchased songs?

    What happened to my itunes library it disappeared except  for the purchased songs?

    By being gone do you mean the library is not in your Pictures folder or when you open the library you don't see any photos or thumbnails?  If it's the latter apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    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
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    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 but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Blocking all MAC addresses except for the ones you allow

    I have a Cisco Aironet 1200 Access Point. I want to block all MAC addresses from accessing the access point, except for the ones I've allowed. First I went to the Address Filters page and clicked on Allowed, then listed all the MAC address I want to be able to access the access point. Then I went to the Ethernet Advanced page, and set the Default Multicast Address Filter to Disallowed, and the Default Unicast Address Filter to Disallowed. Then I went to the AP Radio: Internal Advanced page, clicked on the Advanced Primary SSID Setup link, and set the Default Unicast Address Filter to Disallowed. Accept Authentication Type is set to Open with Shared and Network-EAP cleared, and the Require EAP check boxes are all cleared.
    When using a computer whose MAC address is not listed on the Address Filters page, I am still able to connect to the network through the access point. I am also able to connect to the access point from any pc on my network by entering its IP address in Internet Explorer.
    What do I need to do to block any pc without a listed MAC address from connecting to the access point?
    Thanks, Jeff

    Here's the instructions and URL on how to create an MAC based filter:
    Follow these steps to create a MAC address filter:
    Step 1 Follow the link path to the Address Filters page.
    Step 2 Type a destination MAC address in the New MAC Address Filter: Dest
    MAC Address field. You can type the address with colons separating the character pairs
    (00:40:96:12:34:56, for example) or without any intervening characters (004096123456, for example).
    Note If you plan to disallow traffic to all MAC addresses except
    those you specify as allowed, put your own MAC address in the list of allowed MAC
    addresses. If you plan to disallow multicast traffic, add the broadcast MAC address
    (ffffffffffff) to the list of allowed addresses.
    Step 3 Click Allowed to pass traffic to the MAC address or click Disallowed
    to discard traffic to the MAC address.
    Step 4 Click Add. The MAC address appears in the Existing MAC Address
    Filters list. To remove the MAC address from the list, select it and click Remove.
    Step 5 Click OK. You return automatically to the Setup page.
    Step 6 Click Advanced in the AP Radio row of the Network Ports section at
    the bottom of the Setup page for the radio you want to configure. The AP Radio Advanced page appears.

  • I've just hooked my 20" iMac up to my Toshiba 37" HDTV using a mini dvi-HDMI adapter, and works well, EXCEPT for the green tinge (or hue) that is showing up on my TV. Any suggestions or ideas?

    I've just hooked my 20" iMac display up to my Toshiba 37" HDTV using a mini dvi-HDMI adapter, and everything works well, EXCEPT for the green tinge (or hue) that is showing up. Everything else looks pretty good though..... The color that is on my iMac is still good, Its just green on the TV.
    Anyone have suggestions or ideas?

    Try opening the Display System Preferences, then click on the Color options in the Display preferences window that appeared on the Toshiba display. Click on the Calibrate button and follow the instructions for creating a custom ColorSync profile that will hopefully solve the green tinge issue. The Apple Display Calibrator Assistant software that launches when you click on the calibrate button will walk you through the process.Assuming that the green tinge is minor and that you don't have a more serious cable or hardware issue, I am hopeful the results will be worth it.

  • Is there an easy way to securely delete everything on my macbook PRO except for the OS and applications?  Giving my old Macbook to a family member.

    Is there an eay way to securely erase all information on my macbook Pro except for the OS and applicatios?  I'm donating my computer but want to eliiminate my files and info.

    Yes, boot to your install disk (start up while holding C key).  Go to Utilities>Disk Utility.  Choose erase and format your disk (make sure it's formatted as Mac OSX extended journaled).  There's is a button for security options.  Choose the 0 option (don't choose the multiple pass versions, or it will take forever, but that's extra security).  The 0 option writes a 0 in every location on the drive, and it takes a few hours.  It would take CIA or highly skilled hacker abilities to dig out any information.
    Once you wipe the disc, reinstall OSX.  You're done.

  • When I choose a song on my iPhone 5c, it deletes them all except for the ones I have purchased off of iTunes. How do I fix this and why is it happening?

    Ok. So if you didn't know, there are some sites that allow you to download music for free legally. For example many industry artists release "free albums" or "mixtapes" just for their fan base. They are uploaded by the actual artists themselves and downloaded by millions of fans. However when I choose to play one on my iPhone 5c, all of them get deleted except for the iTunes purchased songs. This has never happened before and I would like to know why it is happening now, and how to fix it.
    Thanks.

    Hello yung ron,
    It may be that your iPhone's set to sync automatically, which can potentially remove any music that's been added to the device. It may help to set the device to 'manual mode,' so that you have complete and total control over what content is on the device.

  • Wipe my hard drive clean except for the OS whats the best way?

    I need to wipe my hard drive clean except for the OS whats the best way?

    From Kappy (note: with this method, you will need to update to the present OS version using the appropriate Combo Update from Apple Downloads.)
    Boot from the OS X Installer Disc One that came with the computer. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities (Installer menu if using Panther or Jaguar) menu. After DU loads select the startup volume from the left side list then click on the Erase tab. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) then click on the Options button. Select the one pass Zero Data option and click on the OK button. Then click on the Erase button.
    Note: You can skip the Zero Data option if you are not concerned about removing sensitive personal data from the hard drive. If you choose to skip this part of the process then it is possible for others to recover data from the hard drive. The Zero Data procedure will prevent others from getting access to your personal information.
    This process will take 30 minutes to several hours depending upon the size of the hard drive. After formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Now complete the OS X installation. At the completion of the installation do not restart the computer. Instead just shut it off. The next user will be presented with the Setup Assistant when they turn on the computer just as it would if new out of the box.

  • Can we handle exceptions for the expressions in select query?

    Hi all,
    Can we handle exceptions for the expressions in select query.
    I created a view, there I am extracting a substring from a character data and expected that as a number.
    For example consider the following query.
    SQL> select to_number( substr('r01',2,2) ) from dual;
    TO_NUMBER(SUBSTR('R01',2,2))
    1
    Here we got the value as "1".
    Consider the following query.
    SQL> select to_number( substr('rr1',2,2) ) from dual;
    select to_number( substr('rr1',2,2) ) from dual
    ORA-01722: invalid number
    For this I got error. Because the substr returns "r1" which is expected to be as number. So it returns "Invalid number".
    So, without using procedures or functions can we handle these type of exceptions?
    I am using Oracle 10 G.
    Thanks in advance.
    Thank you,
    Regards,
    Gowtham Sen.

    SQL> select decode(ltrim(rtrim(translate(substr('r21', 2, 2), '0123456789', ' ' ), ' '), ' '), null, (substr('r21', 2, 2)), null) from dual;
