Syncing all files, not just iCal or AddressBook

Does anyone know how I can sync the contents of specific folders in my Powerbook with my Desktop via an internet connection? I don't mean just iCal, Addressbook etc. I mean large chunks of entire subdirectories!
Thanks,
Mardo

Aperture 3.3 Bug: Syncing Stacks Syncs All Versions, Not Just Pick

Aperture 3.3 has a pretty significant bug. Syncing to iOS devices results in all versions in a Stack to be synced to the device, not just the Picks. This is a HUGE problem as two things happen:
1) The amount of space consumed by the versions can be increased several fold.
2) There can be incredible redundancy when viewing photos on iOS devices because of all the extra versions, in many cases the versions may be indistinguishable.
Does anybody have a work around for this, or know if Apple has acknowledged this bug?

I've run into the same problem, and it also affects the Apple TV -- my screensaver slideshow started to look pretty strange when all of the extra versions in my various stacks began appearing
Anyway, I have found what may be an acceptable workaround. Since iTunes is only using the previews in Aperture, it will exclude any images for which previews do not exist. So, if you choose the non-pick images in each of your stacks and delete their previews (right-click and choose "Delete Previews") they will be removed from any albums that are syncing to your iOS devices or Apple TV.

Cannot Sync, Required file not found!

Plz help. I just updated itunes and now when i plug in my ipod, it wont sync,it says, "The ipod "name withheld's ipod" cannot sync. required file not found."

It's possible that the iPod Photo Cache folder on your computer, which is created from syncing photos to your iPod, is interfering with the syncing.
Try deleting the folder from your computer. See this for details:
Photo Sync creates iPod photo Cache
Then, try resyncing your iPod with your computer, and see if it is sucessful or not.

I just deleted an email account on my iPhone 5s and all my notes just disappeared when I went to access them. Is there a reason why my notes would just disappear? I don't recall linking my notes to the email account I deleted.

I just deleted an email account on my iPhone 5s and all my notes just disappeared when I went to access them. Is there a reason why my notes would just disappear? I don't recall linking my notes to the email account I deleted.

I've wondered about this issue as well. I have multiple email accounts, some old ones that I don't use much, others setup for support of particular projects/groups.
I have no idea how and/or why some notes are linked to a particular account.
I'd much prefer to have the ability to link all of them to an account of my choosing, thus when emailing from a note tied to a specific email account, that account would automatically be used to perform that email.
But more importantly, why can't we be allowed to create 'folders' that function the same way as the Finder on my Mac. This file structure could then be accessed by every iOS app and device.
This type of file structure would be a god-send for the camera roll on my phone. I HATE having all my pictures in one huge clump (cloud?)! After all, who wants to live under a cloud all the time?

Bug SDK-17114 flex.effects.Rotate - Selection Glow Is Rotated For All Objects (Not Just Effect.Target)

Re: Bug SDK-17114 flex.effects.Rotate - Selection Glow Is
Rotated For All Objects (Not Just Effect.Target) at
http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-17114.
Looks like this bug was fixed as of yesterday - I'd like to know
when there will be a patch available to users. I bought Flex 3 just
in the last few weeks, so it would be nice if I could get a free
patch. However, my main concern is how to do a workaround. I can't
deliver my application with this problem, and if the patch is not
available, I don't have an alternative. Is there a way to access
the selection rectangle object and set its rotation
explicitly?

Thanks, Michel.
I forgot to mention one point about copying shape layers into one shape layer: when you initially use the Shape Selection tool to select a shape for cutting, make sure the option for the Shape Selection tool is set to "Add to Selection".

Apple mail out of office rule is sending auto replies to all emails not just newly received emails--HELP!

Apple mail out of office rule is sending auto replies to all emails not just newly received emails--HELP! I set up the rule according to another apple support thread and instead of only sending the reply to new mail received, it was sent to all messages I believe that were in my INBOX, thankfully I only had a few but several people that hadn't sent me emails since I set up the rule, received the OUT OF OFFICE reply. Please help. Here is the procedure I followed for the out of office rule-
http://www.ecu.edu/cs-itcs/mac/Apple-Mail-Out-of-Office-Replies.cfm
I just used my email account which is a business account- not an ECU account but these rules according to the apple thread apply for all emails. Thank you

You can set it easily...
To access this feature in Apple's Mail app, right click on any sub-folder (like your exchange inbox on the left) and choose "Get Account Info." A window will pop up that looks like the one below. Make sure to select your Exchange account from the Account dropdown. Then click on the Out Of Office tab. If you have ever put in an Out of Office message in the past it will be displayed here. You can adjust and set your Out of Office from Apple Mail from within this tab.

Photoshop CS2 File Info Templates fill in all pages, not just it's own

I just purchased an Acer Laptop computer, has an AMD 64x2 Dual Core Processor, 2GB of DDR2 Ram, 160GB hard drive with Windows Vista Home Premium preinstalled. I'm not sure how any of this could be of any help, though.
I've just installed Photoshop CS2, Neat image noise remover, Nik sharpener, and Huey pro calibrator on it.
This is to be a second computer to a Dell desktop, that will be used when out of town and we want to work on our images.
Today we opened Photoshop CS2 and tried to work on some Raw images. We were just going to crop them and fill in the File Info on them then save them to jpeg.
The cropping went fine. When we tried to enter file info and save the Metadata Templates we had trouble. There are 7 of 12 different pages of info that can be changed, the other 5 can't be, I think. Anyway, we were filling in the Description, IPTC Contact, ITPC Content, IPTC Image and IPTC Status pages. We saved the IPTC Contact page as a Metadata Template.
The first image went fine, but when we opened other images, and typed in the information it all changed back to the information on the first image we did when the saved Contact template was used. When we saved the IPTC template for the first image it save the information on all of the pages, not just the Contact page. When we realized this, I started playing around with it and whatever template was saved last will give you all the information typed in on all pages that was there when that template was saved. I also checked the Photoshop CS2 installed on the Dell Desk Top and it is working correctly. We have templates for Description, IPTC Contact, and IPTC Image saved on it. These will give you the information on the individual page not all.
Why would it be doing this on the Laptop and more importantly, how can I fix it?
I sure hope this makes sense and do apologize for the length of it. Thanks in advance for any help I can get. Linda

I was having a similar problem - I was saving an SVG from Illustrator, only to find that when I tried to open it or place it back in Illustrator, I got the error "This SVG is Invalid. Validate it before opening."
You can run the SVG through the W3C validator, remove all the parts causing errors using a simple text editor like Notepad, and then Illustrator should be able to open it. This is a laborious process though if you have a lot of SVGs to save.
After a discussion with Apple support, I learned that it was actually one of my graphics in the Illustrator file that was causing the issue. I had placed an SVG I received from a co-worker, changed the colors, and was trying to save it as an SVG again, but for some reason I kept getting that error, even when I tried save other icons/layers in the same document. When I deleted the two layers that were corrupt, the Save As SVG worked perfectly, no errors when opening the file.
I don't know details, but if you are getting this error, try the Flatten Transparency thing like witkacy suggests. If you're still having problems, it may be caused by an SVG you placed in your file. After a little bit of trial and error, you may be able to find the culprit. You may then have to re-create the graphic yourself (like I did). Converting it to outlines or a shape or something may work as well, but I'm not sure.
Hope this helps someone else!

Profile Manager deleted all of my files - not just the profile. Any tips on what happened and how to resolve?

I created a profile with Profile Manager. It dumped a lot of files into the directory that I selected. At that point I wanted to delete the profile and the associated files. When I selected the Delete Profile and Delete Files option it delete all files and folders in the directory - not just the profile files. It offered no warning that it was going to delete more than the profile files. Why did it do this and is there a way to recover the missing files? OS = Windows 7.

You should never select a folder to be used as profile folder that already has files in it.<br />
You should always choose a new and empty folder because you can use the Profile Manager to take up an existing profile by choosing the location.<br />
Removing the profile and opting to delete the files will remove all the files in that folder and remove the folder as well, so be cautious with doing that.

ICloud not syncing all files

My iPod has around 360 pictures and 40 videos on it. This is severely clogging ym memory so I tried using iCloud to sync them to my pc, whilst removing them from the iPod. However it only syncs about 130 of these items in a fold on my iCloud that I made instead of all 400. Is there any way of making it sync all of them to my pc?

The easiest thing to do is import them to your computer using your usb cable, as explained here: Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC.

Saving metadata manually - saves to all files, not only touched

Since "Automatically write XMP" didn't work properly before version 1.3, I'm still not using it in 1.3. Still a little scared.
My idea is to once in a while select all pictures (or just right click the topmost folder in the folder view) and select "save metadata". But I did some tests now with various images, and this command actually wrote metadata to ALL selected files, even though no keywords, metadata or adjustsments had been made. The import was done with no preset too.
So how do I ensure that only changes I have made are written to the files and that old files remains untouched? And what imaginary metadata does it write?

Hi
Some files may have had metadata written by other applicatons (IPTC - not XMP), but the recent test I did yesterday was fresh files from my cellphone-camera. So what I did was first to select just a few images in the grid and select "save metadata". All files were updated (both the timestamp and the archive-attribute. And with the archive-attribute changes, everything will be backed up again if a normal incremental backup procedure is used). I also right-clicked a folder in the left pane and selected "save metadata" and the same happened.
So I did not do this operation on my whole library, still not trusting LR I prefer to test things in small scale first. Lucky for me.
I checked the files and what had happened is that XMP-data was written to the files. This is just like when I turned on "automatically write XMP" on LR 1.0 - it updated all my image files, even those that was not changed. So it seems I have got almost the same situation again.
So, no - it did not re-write files that had already been touched. This is the first time LR writes to the files, but I don't see why it should write to files that are not changed. I don't agree that LR needs to write to the files once. Why should it? What should it write?
Did this make sense?
Funny, I'm listening to an old Lightroom podcast right now and the team says that one of the design ideas was to be friendly to existing image catalogs. Saving data to unchanged files is not really friendly.

Why is icloud not syncing all my notes on all devices properly?

I have iCloud syncing of the new desktop/mobile app - "Notes" turned on in my desktop Imac, my Ipad and my Iphone.
All I want iCloud to do is simply mirror and sync all three of these Notes platforms so that the latest versions of all existing and new notes are identical in number and content on all devices.
Is that not what this great complicated,bug-prone iCloud is SUPPOSED to do ????
I had, over a long time (pre-iCloud and Mountain Lion), accumulated 61 separate notes on the Iphone, as this is where I create and refer to most of my notes.
Despite my having these 61 Iphone notes, only 17 are appearing on the desktop - and, indeed, it appears iCloud has gone and DELETED most of the notes I had previously synced up to the desktop from the iPhone using both iCloud and the old Itunes syncing,.... which of course has now no longer available..
Please, someone, how do I get Icloud to stop being selective and having a mind of its own about what it deletes and syncs and, instead, very simply do what it'as touted to do and mirror all notes in identical fashion on all 3 platforms. ?????
- Iam frustrated and on the verge of just shutting it all down and giving up on the Cloud - it is so poorly explained !!!

I can't see a failure on Apple's part: they are giving you Notes for each and every of your email accounts. In each account you can activate Notes or not. Can you ask for more flexibility? The rest depends on what you make out of it.
I'm not sure what you mean by
you end up having to create a separate iCloud email address, that apparently has no password, or at least I was never prompted for one and the only thing this email address is for is an outdated transport system that isn't used by the other iCloud data streams.
Most people have more email addresses, though not necessarily on iCloud, but everyone on iCloud has at least one @me.com and/or @mac.com address, which lets you sync your Notes across all OS X and iOS devices.
So, it looks as if - at least for now - you want only a single Notes "pad" that's in sync and accessible on all your Apple gear. No prob.
1. Make sure all your notes were copied or moved into Notes under your iCloud account.
2. On all your Apple gear, deactivate Notes for all (email) accounts except iCloud, and activate it for your iCloud account:
2.1. In OS X:
- The simplest way is to launch Notes, then -> Notes -> Accounts in the menu bar.
- Click on each non-iCloud account and uncheck Notes.
- Click on your iCloud account and make sure Notes is checked.
2.2. In iOS:
- Go to Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
- Tap on each non-iCloud accounts and turn Notes off.
- Tap on your iCloud account and make sure Notes are on.
That's it. Now you have only a single notepad everywhere, and since it's in iCloud and active on all your Apple devices, it stays in sync. See, makes sense, no?

Sync all songs, not the playlists

Hello Everyone,
I have a quick problem I'd like help with. I was wondering if it is at all possible to sync all the songs in the library, just not the playlists. I use a shared computer so there is a lot of unwanted playlists. So is this at all possible? Thanks.
Cheers,
Ken

Have you considered using "Sync Music - Selected Playlists" and creating a single playlist with links to all of the songs in the library to update from? The rest of the playlists will remain in iTunes. Open iTunes and create a playlist to update your iPod from, call it -iPod to make it the first playlist in Sources. Now connect your iPod and when it appears in the Source list click on the iPod icon to bring up the preference tabs in the main pane. Go to the Music tab and choose Sync Music and the Selected playlists radio button. Choose the playlist you just made from the selection and click Apply. You can also sync from any existing playlists by choosing the same setting:
