Something Similar to iPhoto for Windows? (In-laws computer, help!)

I have been tasked with updating the in-laws computer. Part of that task included regular maintenance such as spyware removal, virus scans, defragging the hard drive, and general clean up/organization. It also includes installing Service Pack 2, which I am doing right now. May luck be on my side.
Next I'm installing iTunes and will attempt to get their music library in order.
But the thing I'm having the most problem with is finding a suitable photo editing program for their computer that is similar to iPhoto. Mostly, I just want a program that takes their photos from the camera and organizes them into a library. When I had Windows over 2+ years ago, I had no idea how frustrating it is to sort your photos without iPhoto. Now I couldn't live without it. They have the same problem - no organization whatsoever when it comes to photos. They've got photos EVERYWHERE, most of them have about 4 copies because they haven't learned how to delete the photos from the camera after importing them into the computer.
Anyone have any ideas on any photo programs for Windows that are similar to iPhoto?
G5 1.6 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

glb:
There is no equivalent to iPhoto for PCs. There are other image management applciations. The only one I'm familiar with for the Windows environment is iView Media. However the user will have to upload the camera to a select folder each time and then have iView catalog those files. You can have iView upload to a folder but you should established some folder hierarchy system beforehand to keep confusion to a minimum. If you go to VersionTracker.com on the Windows side and search for image management or image browser you're bound to get a lot of potential candidates for the job.
Or you could be the best son-in-law going and get them a Mac Mini. They can use their existing keyboard, mouse and monitor. Ha. Good luck.

Mac software similar to Autosplitter for Windows?

Is there any Mac software or App that is similar to Autosplitter for Windows?
It can crop, straighten and individually file multiple photos from one scan, i.e. multiple photos on the scanner platen.

Well everyone has to decide on their own workflow but for me I like to use the tool that is best suited for the task.
So in this case I'd let the scanner break the items into multiple files and then do the cropping and straightening in Aperture, it will do a better job and give you more options.
regards
Anf just to be clear Image Capture will allow you to crop the images before you scan them, but I'd still rather do that in Aperture.

ITunes tells me, that I need to load version 11.1 in order to load a backup into my iPhone 5. I'm working with a windows PC and want to update my phone to iOS 7GM. version 11.0.5 is the highest I can get for windows. Can somebody help me?

I'm assuming you followed a forum like Gizmodo to load the latest version of iOS 7 Beta on your device
Alot of those forums forget to mention, iTunes 11.0.5 will allow you to update to the iOS 7 Beta but your device will no longer work unless you have the developer version of iTunes as well....
I'd suggest you to research how to downgrade back to 6.1.3/4 and wait a few days for the iOS to be released,

I recently downloaded safari for windows on my computer.

Hello my name is Alexandra,
I downloaded safari for windows on my computer about a month ago. It worked fine until a couple of days ago. I can't view any of the images, even the images on the apple home page. How can I fix this?

Welcome!
First, see that images are enabled. Do Edit menu > Preferences and click the "Appearance" tab. There is a box labeled "Display images when the page opens" that needs to be checked:

[SOLVED] Is there something similar to FinePrint for Linux?

Hi,
when I was still using Windows, I used a freeware similar to FinePrint (don't remember the name) and it was very useful. So far this is the only application I miss. Is there something similar to that available for Linux?

Stuff means anything that can be printed, so it is not about creating pdf's or something similar. Just to watch and edit what you want to print before you actually print it to paper, and that independent of the program you are using.

Something similar to lightbox for flash?

Hi all,
I'm searching something similar to the lightbox effect in javascript, but for flash.
I already tried succesfully "flash lightbox v2" (http://blog.alancurtis.it/tag/flash/) but I'm searching something native for flash, without javascript.
Is there something usefull around?
TIA
tony

Lightbox like functionality in Flash is very basic and native to it. It is as simple as creating a displayobject, putting images on its display list and creating some transition effect with tween engine. But this requires knowledge of ActionScript.
You can also do this these things on timeline manually.
Because it is so basic, you, perhaps will not find any tutorials. Even beginner's level of Flash skills enables one to develop this kind of functionality.

Superduper equivalent for Windows XP? Please help

Hi all,
Does anyone know of an app that i can use to make a bootable copy of my Windows XP partition (done via bookcamp)? I prefer something on the Mac OS X side, but from what i've read, there doesnt seem to be one. So anything for Windows XP that can do the job like superduper would be great.
Fyi, superduper doesnt read my Windows partition as a source to backup, so that's why i cant use superduper.
Thanks for any help available.

Hi,
For PC side, my office use Partition manager:

Something similar to 'gcstartup' for automatic start / stop

Hi @ll
Is there any similar to ‘/etc/rc.d/init.d/gcstartup’ script for an automatic start / stop for GoldenGate manager on a Server.
I use an OBEY command in a start.txt file with start_ogg.sh file, but there are an OEM agent , a listener and the database on this machine and I would like to start all of them automatic at ones.
Regards
jfa

Hi Nic:_W
Thank for the answer.
I have just modified the gcstartup like that :
#!/bin/sh
#Source Function Library
SU=/bin/su
DBST="N"
if [ -f /etc/oratab ]
then
oratab="/etc/oratab"
else
if [ -f /var/opt/oracle/oratab ]
then
oratab="/var/opt/oracle/oratab"
fi
fi
if [ -f "$oratab" ]
then
for i in `cat $oratab | grep -v '^#' | cut -d ":" -f2`;
do
if [ -f "$i/start_goldgate.sh" ] ;
then
user=`ls -l $i/start_goldgate.sh|awk '{print $3}'`;
if [ $1 = start ];
then
DBST='Y'
$SU - $user -c "$i/start_goldgate.sh ";
else
DBST='N'
$SU - $user -c "$i/stop_goldgate.sh ";
fi;
fi;
done
fi
and it works fine
the content of start_goldgate.sh
is
cd /orasoft/app/ogg
/orasoft/app/ogg/ggsci << EOF
OBEY /orasoft/app/ogg/startup_ogg.txt
EOF
the content of startup_ogg.txt
is :
START MANAGER
INFO ALL
exit
automatic restart of REPLICAT und EXTRACT parameters are in mgr.prm file.
Analogue for stop*/shutdown* files with 'STOP MANAGER'

Need something similar to Pixelmator for 10.6.8

I tried to download Pixelmator, but got a message saying that you need at least 10.9.1, and I have 10.6.8.
Does anyone know of a similar app to Pixelmator that will work on 10.6.8?
(What I need to do is to "paint" a bunch of single clips from a movie so they mask some incorrect colors.)

If you really still want Pixelmator
You can still get the old boxed version of Pixelmator on Amazon.
I believe that version is only either 1.5 or 1.6.

HOW DO I UNINSTALL WINDOWS 8.1 PREVIEW FROM MACBOOK PRO (SNOW LEOPARD)... CAN NOT FIND README FILE FOR WINDOWS PREVIEW. PLEASE HELP

how can i uninstall windows 8.1 preview from my macbook pro?? ive looked for over an hour for the readme file for the windows 8.1 preview and have had no luck. ive done almost everything i can think of at the moment and nothing is working. somebody please help, thanks

Windows 8.1 Preview cannot be uninstalled. However, if what you want is to remove Windows completely, start up in OS X, open Boot Camp Assistant (in /Applications/Utilities) and follow the steps to remove the Windows partition.
If what you want is to install the final Windows 8.1 version, read this Microsoft support article > http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/update-from-preview

I want to use Bootcamp for Windows 7. Need Help

I want to install Windows 7 onto my Macbook Pro using Leopard software.
I go to Utilities and run Boot Camp Support Software. When I get to the "Download Windows Support Software" I click on "Download the Windows support software for this Mac." When I do, it comes back unable to download the software.
What am I doing wrong, or what other step can I take to download this support software?
Thanks for any help.

You always need drivers for a computer.
And after Windows is installed, you have to run Setup.exe off your OS X DVD.
Apple has so far failed to provide pre-install drivers except for MacBook Air. And that is what is being referred to - the pre-install part is totally borked.
