Retouch and red eye tricks work on iMac but not on Notebooks. Why?

I am thrilled to have access to the "hidden" red eye and retouch tools. (Control + Caps Lock + "9"; Followed by Tab)
However, I have noticed they only work on the standard Apple Keyboard, but not on the notebook (MacBook or MacBook Pro) keyboards. (An Apple Keyboard plugged into USB on a notebook will work.) Is there a way to achieve the same results for red eye and retouch using a notebook keyboard?

LiveWire293:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. I hadn't tried that on my new MacBook Pro till you brought it up. I can't get it to work either. Tried all sorts of permuatations with the function key. I don't know enough about the key mapping to determine how the keys on the laptop differ to those on the regular keyboard. I'm sure someone will figure it out eventually. Thanks for the heads up.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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 written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), 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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

TS4185 i can see and hear them, they can hear me, but not see me, why?

I can see and hear them, they can hear me, but not see me on facetime, why?

Ok,
So when you look at your Preview it is Black indicating a camera is there and selected as no camera would not show a video icon and if from the Preferences would be a grey background and a no camera message.
I see this is a iMac. Any chance it is a G5 one ?
If so go to System preferences > Displays and make sure it is set to Millions. (Change it and change it back to be sure)

The computer connected to the network via WiFi can access it via AirPlay (and can play music to it via iTunes), but neither my iPhone 5S or iPad get the AirPlay icon. Does anyone have any ideas? I see people saying that AirPlay does not work over Ethernet, but the computer seems to do fine with it.
Is the iPhone and iPad connected to the same network? Many newer routers create seperate wired, wireless 2.4Ghz, and wireless 5Ghz networks in additon to guest networks.

Only clueless people would make such a silly statement.

Airport Extreme working with iMac but not with Windows 7 Laptop!

My iMac (OSX 10.5.8) has been working fine with my Airport Extreme, but a new member of our household cannot connect wirelessly with their Windown 7 Laptop. The PC can see the wireless name for our household and says it is connected to it, but there is a problem actually connecting to the internet. Has anyone experienced similar problems? We are at a loss as to what to do. Applecare were no help (despite forking out for the advanced applecare warranty) and both Mac and PC service providers blame each other. Any advice would be much appreicated. Surely the Airport Extreme can talk simultaneously to PC and Mac wireless computers?

I have had the same issue. Airplay working with all devices apart from one windows 7 (the actual media server) and have spent over a week trying to resolve it.
This worked for me.
Turn off windows firewall and in my instance macafee. Be warned while macafee says that it's off there are services running all the time.
You will need to open macafee settings and turn off access protection first
Then search services from start bar
Open services and filter by manufacturer
Stoop all macafee services
Right click the start bar
Open task manager
Stop all macafee processes
Try your airport utility you should now see your express
If you can you will see your icon in iTunes
This pores that it's likely to be a macafee issues. Of course you do not want to leave the firewall off so I installed macafee and installed a fresh copy turning both the windows and macafee firewall on with no resultant issues
Hope this helps

Cisco Anytime Connect VPN working from iMac but not from MacBook Air with same settings and wifi network

Hi guys,
I'm having trouble connecting my new MacBook Air to Cisco Anytime Connect VPN.
The same configuration works with my iMac, in the same network and same Mac OS Mountain Lion on both computers.
After successfully connecting to VPN after a few seconds it gets disconnected and, what is worse, WIFI is not working any more in my macBook Air, I need to deactivate it and start again.
With iMac with the same settings it doesn't happen.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Did you power cycle the network? That's always the first thing you want to do if a device is "missing" or not connecting to your network correctly.
If you have not already tried this a few times, power down the entire network...all devices, order is not important.
Wait a few minutes and place the MBAir close to the TC
Start the modem first and let it run a few moments by itself. Then start the TC if it is the device connected to the modem and let it run a few moments. Then start each device one at a time the same way.

ICloud works on iMac but not on iphone

When ever I try to read all mail accounts I get the message iCloud password missing I enter the same password as apple ID but still no access. If i log on to iCloud on iMac all is ok. Ideas?

Can you explain more on what you mean you can not determine Server Settings on this computer ?
The iChat one in in iChat Menu > Preferences > Accounts > Server Setting tab for the Screen Name concerned.
You ISP one will be listed in System Preferences > Network > Connection Method > Advanced button > TCP/IP tab depending on how the info is passed through any router and modem combo.
If you are trying to Log the Same Screen Name into AIM then both computers will need to be set to Allow Multiple Logins in the Account Info Tab in the iChat Accounts Preferences (Set it whilst Logged Out).

Button Toggle ADF Javascript(Works in Firefox but not in IE. why ?)

I have written a code to toggle button in ADF as follows:
<af:resource type="javascript">
function enableDisable(actionEvent){
alert("21");
document.getElementById('cb1').style.background='red';
document.getElementById('cb2').style.background='green';
alert("221");
function enableDisable1(actionEvent){
alert("21");
document.getElementById('cb1').style.background='green';
document.getElementById('cb2').style.background='red';
alert("221");
</af:resource>
<af:form id="f1">
<af:commandButton text="commandButton 1" id="cb1"
inlineStyle="background:'red';">
<af:clientListener method="enableDisable" type="click"/>
</af:commandButton>
<af:commandButton text="commandButton 2" id="cb2" inlineStyle="background:'green';">
<af:clientListener method="enableDisable1" type="click"/>
</af:commandButton>
This code works fine in Firefox, But My requirement is to run it in IE which it doesn't.
Kindly provide me solution or any pointers to resolve this.

I do not now what the function of this declaration is, but
please remove this from the beginning your css and IE7 also shows
bullets:
margin: 0;
padding: 1;
The padding: 1; is definitely an error cause there should be
at least something like px behind the 1, so like padding:
1px;

Playing of video from NRK.no works in IE but not in Firefox why?

I am trying to see TV progs from the Norwegian Broadcasting System nrk.no. I have searched after Windows Media player pluginn and instaled them to no avail. Opening the same site in IE and all is well.
What do I do to avoid using IE??

The images might be embedded as CID (Content-ID) (src="cid:image") that link to an image that is attached to the message.<br />
Firefox doesn't handle images embedded that way.
You would need an email program like Thunderbird to see the images.

CS6 Plugin works on windows but not mac

Hi,
We have been developing a plugin for InDesign since CS3 and have recently ported it to CS6 (it was ported to all previous versions too, as they came out).
I followed the porting guide etc. and on windows it compiles and runs just ok - the plugin works correctly.
But when i compiled the same files on our mac machine and put the .indesignPlugin file in th plugins directory i can't see our plugin's context menu.
I can see that it is in fact loaded on startup (when i remove it ID loads 325 extensions, when i put it back - 326), but still it dosen't seem to work...
I initially thought that the versioning was off but our PluginVersion resource relies solemnly on SDKDef.h , i also tried putiing the file in CS5's plugin directory and got an error message that CS6 is required - so the version info is fine i guess.
We are using xCode 3.2.5 (because we have to support Mac OS 10.5 and 10.4) to build on mac and i've never had problems before - it worked on CS4, CS5 and CS5.5.
The changes i made when porting were minor and only in the code - so what has changed? and how come it works on windows but not on mac?
Any input is greatly appreciated, i've already spent days trying to understand this.
Thanks,
Dan.

Hi and thank you for replying.
The resources do get compiled correctly (i assume this because we do get a .indesign file at the end - which means the ODFRC ran ok). they are linked correctly in the mac project (i saw a file that determines the version - it's linked the same way against my win and mac projects and the win version works fine so i guess that's ok too).
the context menu is just another menu on the "menu bar" (don't know how to call it?) - i.e where the "file" and "edit" etc. menus are.
I can't seem to understand how come this works fine under windows but not under mac - they are essentially the same projects linked against the same resources (the difference being iCode vs VC10 projects).
can this be related to the fact we're using xCode 3.2.5?
Thank you.

How do you get the auto red eye to work in iphoto when it won't click?

When we are trying to correct the red eye problems from photos taken from my dads Sony point and shoot camera iphoto's automatic red eye option isn't enabled. We tryed to fix this by upgrading to the latest version of iphoto but the problem persists- the autocorrect for the red eye won't click. We are feeling ripped off because it should work. Right?

Try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If it does try the following: make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
NOTE 2: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
If the red eye correction works OK in the new library do the following on your original library: make a temporary, backup copy of your library if you don't already have one (Control-click on the library and select Duplicate from the contextual menu) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Note: the following is for iPhoto 9.4
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 #1, followed by #3 and then #4 as needed.
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. 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.
