Slideshow display order using Tiger Finder - Control-contextual menu?

The Tiger Finder Slideshow function (select image files, press Control, Choose Slideshow from the drop-down menu) behaves oddly.
1. The slide display order is reproducible, but is not controlled by the View display order. It is NOT Name, Date modified, or Date created.
2. Digital camera images imported via Image Capture are displayed mostly in order, with a few out of name and date-taken order.
3. Downloaded art images display in no discernable order.
4. 100 images appears to be the maximum size of the slideshow.
I can find no documentation of this feature in Apple help - just a mention of using it for a slideshow of Spotlight-found pics.

It partakes of the whole Finder snafu with regard to ordering things in List and Icon view and preserving this order when you do something like copy and paste, for instance to get a folder content list into a text document. You can get them to display in aphanumeric order if you set the Finder window to Column View first.
There is a limit to the number of slides, but I don't remember what it is. I generally only check a dozen or so at any given time using the slideshow.

Organize the Finder's contextual menu ....

Hi,
In the Finder, the contextual menu includes in the bottom many added menus. Automator is there and all the other contextual menu plugin I added over time. Some of them have many items for the same app and should be separated from each other.
I know I can create personalized menus with FRUIT MENU or with OPEN MENU X, but they do not work on the contextual menus that are added by the system.
Is it possible to separate these added contextual menu with separators ?
Thanks in advance.

I did not say you cannot delete them, I said those built-in to the OS cannot be deleted. Those installed by you or third-party software in either the Library or Home/Library's contextual menu items folders could be removed. But I wouldn't delete anything without knowing the consequences of doing so. Many contextual menu items have a purpose even though you may not have yet discovered the purpose.
You can simply create a ContextualMenuItems (Disabled) folder and place the ones you don't wish to use in the folder. You can create a similarly named folder in all three Library folders - one for each.
You could use a third-party preference pane like Diabloting - VersionTracker or MacUpdate - that can manage contextual menu items, preference panes, fonts, etc. by moving them into and out of their normal folders.
I might wonder what is behind this effort?

How do I remove "Scan with ClamXav" in Lion? I cannot find a contextual menu item folder in at home/library.

How do I remove "Scan with ClamXav" in Lion? I cannot find a contextual menu item folder in at home/library. I installed and removed ClamXav from the Mac app store.
Thanks.

Thanks! AppTrap mentioned in the linked article got rid of it for me.
Actually, it didn't. With Snow Leopard and Lion, the contextual menu is provided by a built in "service" within the ClamXav application itself.
If you downloaded ClamXav from the AppStore, all you need to do is trash it and reboot.
If you downloaded the full version from the web you need to first run the "ClamAV Engine REMOVER" script that comes on the ClamXav_2.x.x.dmg. Then trash the ClamXav application, empty the trash and reboot.
There are also one or two preferences that can be found in ~/Library/Preferences/ that start with "uk.co.markallen.clamxav..." that take up minimal space and don't do anything without the application. AppTrap probably found those.

Apple TV (2) photo slideshow display order different than iPhoto album being shown

Both ATV (2) and iPhoto (9.4.2) have latest software updates. I sort photos in Albums by date. But ATV displays the photos in a different order. Does ATV use some other intrinsic sort order for its display? Is there a way to make the ATV slideshow show the photos in an Album in the same order in which they appear in that Album in iPhoto on my iMac? Thanks.

I suspect that you will have to re-edit the metadata to accomplish your goal. As images are copied and moved this is often modified (place/geotag, faces, dates).......... Just a though. You can download the photos and both check it and if necessary change it in iPhoto

"Reveal in finder" as contextual menu

I would like a CM in iPhoto 9.1.5 (10.7.1) that offers "Reveal in Finder". Modified version is fine, or a drop down offering Original, also.
Yes I know it's in the File menu
I expect this will be done in Auomator. I'm not that good at that, but will try. Thanks for any help.

Not sure that's possible. I had a quick look in Automator and there is no actions there that will do a 'Reveal In Finder' that I could see.

How do I find the contextual menu for the adjustment brush

I'm trying to locate the drop down menu for the adjustment brush, not the panel but the acutal menu that also has some Adobe developed presets (like soften skin and whiten teeth for example).

How can I make this AppleScript available as a control click menu?

This code was previously created in another question from 2009 (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1881786?start=15&tstart=0), but the last person to comment on it was never given an answer. I wanted to see if this following AppleScript could be used as a control-click menu, so when I click on a folder, I can choose to run this script so set an icon as the folder image, instead of having to select both the image and the location. In other words, can I have a one-click method to set, say "cover.jpg" or "1.jpg" as the folder icon? Any help is appreciated.
Here is the code that works through the use of selecting the file and the folder:
--CODE (for AppleScript Studio script)
set srcpath to POSIX path of (choose file with prompt "Choose source image file.")
set dstpath to POSIX path of (choose folder with prompt "Choose target folder.")
--set dstpath to dstpath's text 1 thru -2 -- remove last slash if necessary.
setIcon(srcpath, dstpath)
on setIcon(srcpath, dstpath)
set nsimg to load image srcpath
set nswks to call method "sharedWorkspace" of class "NSWorkspace"
set r to call method "setIcon:forFile:options:" of nswks with parameters {nsimg, dstpath, 0}
delete nsimg
return r
end setIcon
--END OF CODE

Jules,
Depending on the shape, and upon the appearance (varying width and/or knotting or whatever), it may be anything from a Rectangular/Polar Grid (bundled with the Line Segment Tool) to something intricate and difficult.

Why does my MacBook Pro Retina screen display pixilated graphics when using the finder?

While this started just after the latest OS X update, each time I use the finder now to locate a graphic to upload, the graphic appears extremely pixelated. It does not matter which application I use to search and upload a graphic file, the graphic appears smaller and bleeds out. I just purchased the new Video Motion Pro video editing software, and every single graphic I upload to this application is pixelated. Has anyone else had any problems with their retina display after the last update?
Here are some examples of hi resolution graphics that now appear pixelated on my Retina screen:

If anyone is aware of an application or Apple software test that allows me to check my graphic card and retina display, please advise. I have performed multiple disk utility checks, restarts, etc., but nothing seems to help.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

How to use OEM grid control to find any database not in archivelog mode?

Hello,
currently we have 130 databases, say, if I want to pick out any database currently NOT in archivelog mode, is there a quick way to find out ?
by using OEM grid control
or
some trick similar,
but really don't need to check each database manually.
thank you very much!

This query works in 12c - please run as SYSMAN.
It is based on undocumented assumptions though +( AND key_value = 'NOARCHIVELOG')+.
SELECT *
FROM SYSMAN.MGMT$GROUP_DERIVED_MEMBERSHIPS O ,
    SYSMAN.MGMT$TARGET T ,
    sysman.MGMT$AVAILABILITY_CURRENT st
WHERE
o.member_target_type     IN ('oracle_database', 'rac_database')
AND ( t.target_type           ='rac_database'
OR (t.target_type             ='oracle_database'
AND t.type_qualifier3        != 'RACINST'))
AND o. member_target_guid     = t.target_guid
AND t.target_guid             = st.target_guid
AND st.availability_status    = 'Target Up'
AND ( EXISTS
    (SELECT *
    FROM sysman.mgmt$metric_current i
    WHERE I.TARGET_GUID = O.MEMBER_TARGET_GUID
    AND metric_name     = 'archFull'
    AND Metric_Column   = 'archTotal'
    AND metric_label    = 'Archive Area'
    AND column_label    = 'Total Archive Area (KB)'
    AND key_value       = 'NOARCHIVELOG'
    ));Another way to achieve the goal is to push extended metrics (SELECT LOG_MODE FROM V$DATABASE) on each DB, and monitor the values they return to the repository. This is an example for a (slightly) different problem - http://iiotzov.wordpress.com/2012/08/08/how-to-use-the-new-oem-12c-metric-extensions-to-enforce-enterprise-wide-custom-policies .
OEM Repository has many other great uses as well - http://iiotzov.files.wordpress.com/2012/05/oem-repository-a-second-look.doc , http://iiotzov.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/iotzov_oem_repository.pdf

Display all measurements in Multiple Numeric Limit Test using UI SeuqenceView Control

Hi, I found only the total result in Multiple Numeric Limit test can be show in UI SequenceView Control. How can I display more detail information in it?
For example, If I want to display like this:
Mulitple Numeric Limit test                       FAIL
Measurement1                                        PASS
Measuremtnt2                                         FAIL
Is it possible in UI sequenceview control?
Thanks in advance

You might be interested in this community example: Recursive Expression in TestStand.
It is possible (though not traightforward) to loop in an expression using recursion. The example above shows how to use recursion in an expression to list all of the limits of a multiple numeric limit step. This is similar to what you want to do with measurements.
I honestly think you're better off with Doug's suggestion to hard-code a maximum number of measurements to display as using recursion in expressions is not easy.
