Screen saver : loading photos too long with aperture 3.3.2

Hi,
I've upgraded to mountain lion today and I've discovered an issue.
Screen saver does not display my aperture library (though I can select the aperture library and see clearly the photos inside)
It says 'loading photos' with a black screen and nothing more happen.
When I select a folder with small amount of photos (less than 10 for exemple), it finally works.
But I like to have my whole library targeted for screen saver.
I add that it was perfectly working before the upgrade, and Aperture was already in 3.3.2 before mountain lion upgrade.
Lion screen saver was working perfectly with my all aperture library and now it's a disaster.
Moreover, the new slideshows added in the screensaver are worse than the one with Lion. I particularly appreciated the "Polaroid" pictures with the date below.
Now I cannot have it anymore..
So I have two questions ;
1) Is there a way to speed up the loading of photos for the slideshows of screen saver ? A cache file ?
2) Can I get back the previous screen saver of Lion ("polaroid" pictures with date below)
thanks a lot for your help
I'm a newbie in Mac

Hi Earnie,
Yes indeed I do have different versions for some of them but each version bears a different Version Name. Though I guess the Master Name being unique, it might be causing the trouble... That should not matter anyway and hopefully will be solved in a next update.
Thanks for the tip. I will investigate further and check all my photos.
Cheers
Frederic

OCDM - Sample Report Installation issue - Runs too longer with No progress

Hello,
As a part of OCDM environment setup for Practice we were successful installing following :
* Supported Enterprise Linux
* Oracle DB 11g R2 (OLAP & MINING option)
* OWB was already installed as a part of Oracle DB 11gR2 - just unlocked the OWB accounts.
* Installed OBIEE 11g R2 installation - Installation successful and able to open url's. (analytics and BI Publisher etc.) - Issue with login account.
* Installation of Communication Data Model (First Installation type from OCDM Installer)
When we try to install Sample Reports at same stage the screen remain open and runs too longer with No progress.
The Installation process for OCDM Sample Reports is given in the attached doc with screenshot and the log file is also included in the attached document.
Please let us know the following two issue:
1) How to login to Analytics after OBIEE 11gR2 installed on Linux - ( in our case we use user as Administrator and tried password same as username, even checked with the user weblogic and other but no success.

The current OCDM version does not support BIEE 11g, so you need to install BIEE 10g. In next release(will be available soon), OCDM will support BIEE 11g.
2) The issue with installation of OCDM Sampple Reports though successful installation of OCDM Data Model.(First Installation Type from OCDM Installer)
The importing will take a long time, you can login database with ocdm_sample_sys/ocdm_sample_sys, and use "select count(*) from tabs;" to monitor the import process.

my desktop and screen saver option is no longer available in the system preferences. meaning it is no longer listed. how would i go about getting it back?

If you used system cache cleaning software it can mess up Apple software. Stop using such software. Remove Mackeeper if present using these directions:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3691
If you started typing something in the search field of the System Preferences, it might be hiding. Quit and reopen System Preferences to be sure it isn't hiding because it is searching for another panel.
Lastly, if none of the above apply, go to your hard drive -> System -> Library -> PreferencesPanes folder and see if it is hiding there. If it isn't, get your 10.5 installer disc that installed 10.5 on your Mac, and restore it with http://www.charlessoft.com/ 's Pacifist, and then run the 10.5.8 combo update to ensure the version matches the operating system.

Can´t view photos in full screen after loading photos to dropbox? what to do?, can´t view photos in full screen after loading photos to dropbox? what to do?

after loading photos to dropbox i can´t view them in full screen in iphoto ... i can only view them small ... when i click on them this sign "!" appears... do you know how to fix this????

If you're loading photos to drop box why do you expect to see them in iPhoto?
The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

Screen Saver - 3rd Party to work with Mac OS X 10.4.11

I would like to purchase a third party Screen Saver that will work with my Mac Mini, OS X, 10.4.11. I would like a Screen Saver that will give me greater flexibility in displaying my photos; would allow each photo to remain on screen for a longer period of time then the existing software will allow and to have more options when transitioning from one photo to the next.

Get GraphicConverter gives even more options...

Quicktime page loads taking too long

I've got a page I'm building with 10 short mp3 clips. Here's a sample of the code for each clip:
<object classid="clsid:02bf25d5-8c17-4b23-bc80-d3488abddc6b" codebase=
"http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab"
width="49" height="16">
<param name="src" value="http://www.mysite.com/test/mp3/lookoflove.mp3">
<param name="autoplay" value="false">
<param name="controller" value="true">
</object>
Is there a parameter I can add that would keep the page from preloading all of the files and make it so the file wouldn't actually load until the 'play' button was pressed? The files are all around 600-700kb each which, by themselves don't take too long but all together make the page a little too long to wait for.

let's put it this way. if you do File>Export>Quicktime you'll make a quicktime file with the same compressor as your sequence and it'll render faster. If you select File>Export>Quicktime Conversion you can make a quicktime file with a compression of your choice. (although the conversion process takes time). so you could compress it into a DVCPRO 50 quicktime, or an uncompressed quickime or H.264 quicktime. any of these settings will play in quicktime. These you can select through the options button in the converter window. we just suggest you use Export>Quicktime because it's faster easier and it's useless in your situation to convert.

Pages' first page "Templates" is too long with buttons inaccessible

When launching Pages (version 3.0.1), the top page that appears is the template page. It is always too long, going all the way to the bottom of the screen. The choices and buttons at the bottom of the template page are behind the dock and cannot be read or accessed for clicking. I tried hiding the dock and then shrinking the template window upward so that the choices were above the dock, and then showing the dock again. Unfortunately, the next time I launched Pages, the top Template window opened up too long again with the bottom of the page unaccessible behind the dock. This problem does not happen with Numbers or Keynote--the template pages in these applications are always sized just right--above the dock. Any ideas why this is happening and how to permanently fix it?

IPhoto doesn´t work after trying to load photos from iphone with newer version. Help!!!!!

First, I do not have a recent back-up of my iPhoto Library. (But, I learned my lesson for next time). When I tried to load photos from my super duper up to date software I-phone to my outdated iPhoto on the computer (only version 8.1.2), a message came that I cannot open your Mediateck with this version of iPhoto,. You have changed your mediathek with a newer version of iPhoto.
(in German, because I am writing from Germany "Sie konnen ihre aktuelle Mediathek nicht mit dieser Version von iPhoto öffnen. Sie haben Ihre Mediathek mit einer neueren version von iPhoto geändert").
How can I save all the baby pictures of my 3 kids??Help

Did you update iPhoto?
If not:
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places 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.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new iPhoto 08 library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

Size of photo's published with Aperture

Can anyone tell me how I can get photo's published on the web .mac with Aperture at a great format. When I make the format more than 400 the photo's are not good anymore. Please tell me how I can get great photo's at the web.

Im not sure what you mean? Are you talking 400 dpi? If thats what your doing then forget it...images should be 72 dpi for publishing on any RGB electronic media.
You can use photoshop to make your image to the size you want at 72 dpi and then use sharpen so that it looks great on your screen and then it should look great on most other peoples screens as well. (all the other sharpen options are for big images or print media).
Hope this is what you mean? or do you only want to use aperture only?

ORA-01704:String literal too long with update of more than 4000 chars

Hi,
I want to update a table column in Oracle Database(version 10) with more than 4000 chars.
The datatype of the table column is NCLOB.
I want to achieve this with one single line of update query as below,
update mytable set MY_DESCRIPTION = 'longdesc' where ID = '111' ;
But there's a problem, if the 'longdesc' is more than 4000 chars, it gives the error , "ORA-01704:String literal too long"
How can I achieve this in sql developer ?
I dont want to do this using stored procedures, I want to do this update using only sql statement.
Please help.
thanks,
sudhakar

Hello Sudhakar,
I am afraid, this will never work by SQL.
Just because an SQL-Statement must not contain a string literal over 4,000 characters (or did that change lately?).
Maybe you can bypass the limit with PL/SQL ... but you will certainly run into the 32K limit sooner or later
regards
Peter

"Disable Screen Saver" hot corner no longer prevents Display Sleep

I am not sure whether it started only after I upgraded to 10.5.7, but I certainly have this very annoying issue right now.
I have "Disable Screen Saver" assigned to the top right "hot corner". Some time ago I could place my mouse pointer there in order to prevent activating of "Display Sleep" (as well as gradually dimming before jumping into bed).
It no longer works. I have my pointer in the right corner, and nevertheless the display first dims, then goes to sleep.
Is this only my problem? Any ideas how to fix it? Thanks!

Anybody?

Connecting to the db is taking too long with Shared Servers connection

Hi all
OS: Solaris 11 SPARC 64 bits
DB: 2-node RAC Oracle 11.2.0.3.5
After doing a migration of a 40GBs database from a 9i database to a 11g database, it's takin too long to connect to the db, which is using shared server. In the moment, there aren't any applications using the db, just myself. Doing some tests, i saw that when i use a dedicated connection, i can connect almost instantly, but using the shared connection, it takes almost 4 seconds to connect, via sqlplus. Here are some shared server parameters:
shared_server_sessions               integer
shared_servers                          integer     1

Hello,
Refer to the documentation is a great help.Please have a look at the below link:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96533/features.htmLook at the part :
Performance of certain database features can improve when a shared server architecture is used, and performance of certain database features can degrade slightly when a shared server architecture is used. For example, a session can be prevented from migrating to another shared server while parallel execution is active.i know that this maynot be the case here but please read this document and apply it as it will help you understand what is going on.

MTU error (Path too long) with linux-3.6.2

I have a PC running 24/7, with an OpenVPN connection up all the time as well. I also have a (shared) ssh connection open, through said vpn. Every night an rsync job is ran, to backup some stuff over said VPN, through a shared ssh connection.
Starting a few days ago (Oct 17) I've had trouble with this, as in after rsync started, it would not be able to finish its job, getting "interrupted" (or, hanged) quite early on.
Looking in the journal, I can see error messages such as those (right after rsync starts, which happens at 02:23) :
Oct 17 02:23:05 arch.local openvpn@xxx[552]: read UDPv4 [EMSGSIZE Path-MTU=1460]: Message too long (code=90)

Oct 17 02:37:22 arch.local openvpn@xxx[552]: read UDPv4 [EMSGSIZE Path-MTU=1460]: Message too long (code=90)
This eventually led to the ssh connection timing out, and the rsync job failing to complete.
Also, restarting OpenVPN seems to "fix" the issue, without the need to change any settings.
That's when I realized this started happening since upgrading the kernel to 3.6.2, so I then downgraded to 3.5.6 (Oct 19) and, since then, haven't had any issue.
So I'm thinking this is some kind of bug/regression in the 3.6 kernel, but I'm not really sure what to do now.
Note: I see 3.6.3 is out (and in testing), but only looked at the changelog so far (and didn't see anything that seem related to this issue?).

Thanks for your answers (and sorry about the delay).
I'm not sure how to read the error message actually, but I use default settings and `ip addr show` reports a MTU of 1500 indeed. Also, (on linux-3.6.2) I tried using OpenVPN's --mtu-test option to see what it would say (even though early on I never have a problem), and here it is:
NOTE: Empirical MTU test completed [Tried,Actual] local->remote=[1541,1541] remote->local=[1541,1541]
I'm nor really sure what it means, that I could (should?) use 1541 instead of 1500? And if so, how come it says I could go higher while I get errors with Path-MTU=1460 ? And actually, right before this result I do have a couple of those Path-MTU errors in the log, so I really don't know what to make of it, could it fail at 1460 but work higher? Does that even make sense?
I still don't know if it's really an MTU issue or not, since the kernel 3.5.6 isn't affected. Anyhow, I'll probably install 3.6.3 and see, hopefully it'll be back to normal.... if not I guess I'll have to try and set an MTU, though I'm not sure to what.
Also, would that require the OpenVPN server to have its MTU set that way as well (Since currently it also uses default settings, so MTU 1500) ?
