"Tell a Friend" movie title clipped and link missing

When I click "Tell a Friend" in iPhoto 9, the email opens up with the following:
I just published a new movie to my MobileMe Gallery that I'd like to share with you. Click the link below to check it out.
Jon
The upload is named Jon & Rachel Wedding. But it stops after Jon and no link is published.
I have used "Tell a Friend" on older movies uploads and it works correctly.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Oh, for this project I am using the iMac Core 2 Duo.

There are no ideas about this one.

HT1026 When I do this a copy is created, and when I try to move the old file to trash I get a warning that this clip will no longer be visible in my project. How do I make the drag and drop move the clip and not just make a copy?

In Imovie 2008 when I drag an event to another drive, the event is copied and not moved. Thereafter if I try to move the original clip to trash I anm warned the clip will no longer be accessible in the project it is linked to. How do I get to move the clip and keep it connected to the project?

I have iPhoto '09. The problem occurs when I try to move a photo from iPhoto onto a document or anywhere. I click on the photo and try to drag it to the document. When I do this a message box pops up saying that the file cannot be opened because it is empty. This only happens with a small number of photos but I just don't understand the fact that I can see these photos (and print them but only directly from iPhoto) but I can't do anything with them since, for some reason, the computer is seeing the file as empty.
Hope that helps. Thanks.

Iphoto library distorted thumbnails AND links missing

while moving some pictures from my imac (2.1 Gh G5) to my ibook (800 Mh G4) the iphoto program running on my Imac told me it need to "update". Clicking OK resulted in COMPLETE ruin of all my thumbnail photos. They are all distorted and some are missing altogether.
I contacted apple via instant messenger and asked howe to fix this. I was told to rebuild my iphoto library. OK I attempted this, of course iphoto died 1/2 way through the process and now i have NO thumbnails of any of my photos, the entire library is completely disconneted from iphoto. The only good news is that all the pictures are still there.
How can I fix this? Help!!!
Jake

Hi Jakob,
what were the exact steps you took to move pictures from the iMac to the iBook?
If the rebuild didn't work you can create a new library.
Close iPhoto
Rename your messed up iPhoto Library to "iPhoto Library_old"
Drag this library to your desktop
Hold down the Option key and launch iPhoto
This is the window you will get
Create a new library or choose a library to open
Choose to create a new library
Once this new empty library is open it is time to import the images from your old library
Go to File>add to library
Navigate to the old library on your desktop and highlight it in the window, then click the "open" button.
iPhoto will start importing the images from your old library
This is what to expect:
Your images will be imported in nice dated rolls. (make sure your view is set to sort by rolls to see it) There are a couple of caveats to this. You will get rolls named "Originals" These rolls will contain your video clips and your original images that you had edited. If you had RAW files they would be in those rolls too (I don't do RAW, so I don't know for sure) Delete what you don't want from those rolls. You will also get the jpeg pointer files to your video clips imported. They will just be jpegs and will not point to the video clips anymore as iPhoto made new ones when the clips were imported again. You can delete those. they should be in a roll right next to the newly imported video clips so they are not hard to find. The thumbnail files don't get imported as iPhoto makes new ones when the images are imported.
Once all you images have been imported, check through the library and make sure everything looks ok.
You can now start making your Albums, and do your keywords or any other organizational steps.
You can also delete the old library on the desktop.
It is also a good time to backup this new library to CD/DVD by burning the iPhoto LIbrary folder in the Finder, or copying the iPhoto Library folder to an external drive formatted for Macs, or copying the iPhoto LIbrary folder to an iPod.
Good luck!

Pages and links missing on HostMonster

I created my website with iWeb and published it to a folder on my desktop. All links, pages and albums work beautifully. When I uploaded my site to HostMonster, all I get is my Welcome page with no index to my other pages. I had created links to other pages within my text, and these work, but when I click on them, only the text is visible--no photo albums are visible.
I called HostMonster support and they said I could edit the pages from there but I don't know how to do this.
Can anyone help?

Hi,
I used CyberDuck and I'm pretty sure I uploaded all the files. The url for my website http://www.vdeboldandmodernist.com/AboutV_deB.html
As you will see, there is no index at the top of this page. When you click on the links in the text below, it goes to my other pages but the photo albums are missing as well as the index that should be at the top of page.

Tell a friend button produces hijacked link

Strange title and i am not sure this is the correct forum but can't find more suitable/obvious one.
When I click the 'Tell a friend' button to send a link to my photo albums, instead of the desired links and password details appearing in the message text there is an advert for a British Telecommunications Broadband facility known as BTFON!
Now I happen to have a BTFON account for use in UK and find it very convenient where standard wifi is not available or of poor quality so I know this to be a legitimate advert. However, I can't see why it should suddenly have started to appear in a link from iPhoto.
I have used the iPhoto facility to "tell a friend" in the past and not had this problem before. The last time i used the BTFON facility was in an airport hotel just before coming to the USA.
I do not have a problem when I open a new mail message directly in Mail. Has anyone else experienced anything similar?
(Oh yes I have tried to get an answer from British Telecoms - but I am not going to hold my breath for it!)

Tell a friend link

Dear experts,
in Erec portal when using "Tell a Friend" option to send posting link to a friend, url begins in upper case :
HTTP://infxxx.inf..xxxx.com/sap/bc/erecruiting/posting_apply?param=cG9zdF9pbnN0X2d1aWQ9MDA1MDU2QUI3NkE4MUVFNDg1Q0E1RkEyNDI1QTAwQzUmY2FuZF90eXBlPSZwb3N0aW5nX3RleHQ9eWVz&sap-client=200
ISometimes users try to paste this link directly ,in this case in Linkedin, and it causes an error due to 'HHTP' instead of 'http'. I've found HTTPURLLOC table, where this parameter is riden, but it's not possible storing values in this table in lower case.
Could you shed light on this issue?
Thx a lot !

Hi Maria,
I double-checked with Basis and they confirmed that HTTPURLLOC always stores the entries in capital letters when you maintain the table via SE16.
To overcome this you could try to maintain the table in a different way - eg. by direct modification on database or a small report with INSERT/UPDATE operations.

Kdenlive fail rendering if title clips or images are in the project

Hi.
Thats what happen if I try to render a project with title clips or images inserted, whatever is the output that I choose. If I hide title clips and images, the project renders
I get a popup that says
Rendering of /home/pathtooutputfile aborted, resulting video will probably be corrupted
And what I see in the error log is a little different with the output I chose:
If I choose mp4 I get
[libmp3lame @ 0xb0510e20]
Channel layout not specified
[mp4 @ 0xb050ae40]
Encoder did not produce proper pts, making some up.
If mpeg2
Channel layout not specified
[mpeg @ 0xb050ae40]
VBV buffer size not set, muxing may fail
If vob
Channel layout not specified
[ac3_fixed @ 0xb0510e60]
No channel layout specified. The encoder will guess the layout, but it might be incorrect.
If mov
[mov @ 0xb050ae40]
Encoder did not produce proper pts, making some up.
I'm going crazy (a month ago everything worked fine).
Any suggestions?
I search and found this http://www.kdenlive.org/forum/rendering … lip?page=2 but no way (and I don't know if it is my issue)
(my english is not so good... sorry)
Thanksssssss

Have you upgraded the system?
I had this same problem until yesterday, only kdenlive did not render at all, with or without title clip. Googling about it, I think it was some kind of conflict with mlt and opencv. Opening kdenlive as root did not work for me. I initially downgraded to the previous version of mlt (0.9.0.1 if I remember cforrectly); with that I could render, but only without title clips present. Solution came with last update of opencv (and re-upgrade of mlt).
Also, while I was looking up this problem, I read about a similar bug being related to the sound, and installed ladspa (just in case all the previous doesn't completely solve your problem).

Tell a friend script

I have been trying to implement the following "tell a friend"
script:
http://www.tamingthebeast.net/articles3/tell-a-friend-script.htm
Not sure what Im doing wrong. The pop form appears but when I
complete the form and press send, I getv a message from my host
server to tell me someone has used the form, but it doesnt collect
the sender or receiver email address. Also the peroson to whom the
tell a friend was supposed to go to doesnt arrive.
I havent got a thank you page" which is in the
tellafriend.php file. Would that make a differnece.
I am a real newbie and would love for someone to drop me some
code to give a similar thankyou page as the one in the example.
Is there something i need to do on the server side to get the
email part to work.
Any help much appreciated.

give a link to YOUR page where YOU have done a complete step
by step
implementation of the script instructions.
From a quick read of the article- there are these parts to
it:
Step ONE:
tellafriend.php
which is all the stuff from <?PHP to this part:
# After submission, the target URL
header("Location: $thankyoupage");
exit;
?>
Step Two- the form
copy their form eXaCtLy for now- because the scripting using
those form
field names. (so this is a possible cause of your
implementation not
carrying some form fields, and the reason to give the url
link to your page.
Step three
Make the thankyou.htm even if it's a blank file. Make it
exist in the same
folder level as tellafriend.php. If it doesn't exist, that
will likely cause
an error and This Is A Process Of Proving what DOES and What
DOESN'T work.
Step four.
Be patient.

I use my ipod for audible books downloads. In the past I have been able to move books back and forth from library to ipod according to what I was listening to. I can no longer retreive books in the library. Any suggestions?

I use my 6th generation Ipod strictly for Audible downloads. In the past, I have been able to move titles back and forth from the Ipod and my Itunes library, to control the amount books on the ipod. Recently, an exclamation mark has appeared next to the titles as I try to transfer to the ipod, and the book does not transfer. Any suggestions on how to regain access to my purchased library?

1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now?

IPhoto & "Tell a Friend"

When I click on "Tell a Friend" function, Email opens and everything looks and seems to work fine, but my emails just sit in the Outbox and never actually send.
If I click on my "Mail" icon on my toolbar, I can send no problem, but it seems if I try to use it within an application like iPhoto, it won't send my emails...?
Don't know how to fix it and it's obviously annoying.
Can anyone help!?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You are clicking on the Send button, right? Check the sent box and see if they may have gone out anyway. Or try saving the draft, closing Mail, open Mail from the dock and see if you can get it sent that way.
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. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Advanced Button with Movie Clip and Fading

Problem: I'm trying to create a bottun that when you roll
over it it plays a movie clip and also fades in and out on roll
out. It is similiar to the three main navigating buttons on the
following site.
http://www.fjcruiser.ca/
the buttons with the compasses that appear are the ones I am
talking about.
I already know how to make buttons, I just can't figure out
the actionscripting to load the movie and also fade in and fade out
according to roll over and roll out.
Please help. Thank everyone.

Amazingly, I actually know exactly how to do this. And it
only requires about 4 lines of code in the _root layer and on the
button.
Instead of having the rollover load an external movie, you
want the have the rollover execute an on(enterFrame) function that
tells each newly entered frame of your movie to check to make sure
the mouse is still on the button, and if not, send the movie
playhead backwards.
So, put that sampleMovie right on the stage with the button.
Then write the code in the _root so that says: as long as the mouse
is over the button, the movie will advance to nextFrame(). When it
gets to the next frame, again the code checks to see if the mouse
is on the button, if so, the movie is instruct to go one more next
frame (which is tweening the fade, right?) again, over and over
until the stop() at the last frame. But, if while while entering a
frame, the code finds that the mouse is no longer over the button,
it does the same thing but this time instructs prevFrame(), and so
on, going prevFrame (backwards, in other words) as long as the
mouse is not on the button.
The result of the above is a gradual fade in and out,
depending on whether the mouse is hovering. This, as opposed to an
abrupt disappearing graphic on(rollOut).
Click the below link for the .fla that demonstrates this
technique (which, by the way, I learned from Joshua Davis'
excellent book, "flash to the core". Check it out at Amazon, or
wherever. Lots of cool tricks).

Subject : Slideshow looks bad
Hello guys
I have a project in my Final Cut just about done. I want to add my slideshow as part ofthe project and burn it to DVD. Inmy slideshow, there are some stills from the movie clips and some downloadedfrom the internet but they all look blur when playback and even worse if Iapply Ken Burn to it. Pleasesome one can tell my how to do it right or it can’t be done because thedownload quality and stills from the clip are not suitable or slideshow. Thank you
PSC

Thank you Ross.
The entire DVD containing Quick Time movies (Final CutExpress project) and slideshow was done in iPhoto. The Final Cut project was rendered prior to export to QT, the slideshow was sent to iDVD withoutrendering. The slideshow with most of the pictures from my still camera incombination with stills from movie clips and some downloaded from the Internet.After burning, the movie playback is perfect but the slideshow is not. The slideshow containing 3 differentkinds of pictures; those from my still camera looks OK; the stills from themovie clips and from the Internet are not. I don’t have much knowledge in this game, but I think NTSCwith frame size 720x480, and the downloaded picture Item Property shows most ofthem are between 400 to 500 x 300 to 600, may be both of them are not suitablefor TV screen while the stills from my still camera looks OK because they are2048x1536. Please enlightenme. Once again, thank you so much,I really appreciate the time you offered.

Changing Clip and File Names While Maintaining Link to P2

I know that if I open P2 files in the Log and Transfer window I can (re)name clips before transferring them to QuickTimes and still maintain a link to the original P2 files in case something goes offline. Two questions:
1. If I transfer without changing the name, then change the name of the clip and its related QT from within a bin will it still maintain its link to the original P2 files?
2. If so, will it maintain a link to copies of the same P2 files on another drive (I'm transferring and organizing at home using a backup of the P2's)? Would links be maintained if I did the name change in the Log and Transfer window?
OK, that was three questions. No one expects the Spanish Inquisition.
Martin

Well...the best way to figure this out is to test. I didn't know, so I did a test. Imported a clip called 0003JK.mov. Changed it at MY CAR (because it was a shot of my car)...used FCP to change the name of the file on my drive to match the clip. Then I deleted it. Then I used the BATCH CAPTURE function...and YES, it imported that clip fine.
SO...for #2...test it and see. But, if you mean that you are importing clips on one machine, NOT changing the names...and then on your machine importing and changing the names....will it relink to the files imported on the OTHER machine? I doubt it...but I can't be sure. So test it. The only way to know is to test it.
But if you change the name in the Log and Transfer window, or later, yes, they relink.

Difficulties with movie clips and frames

This is really irking me.
I am extremely new to Flash so please bear with me. I am assuming that this is a simple, easy to fix problem that I am having. I have Adobe Flash Professional CS5.5.
What I am trying to do is display a sequence of images after other movie clips stop playing.
The image sequence itself does what it is supposed to and works properly, and the other movie clips also are successful. However, whenever I try to put the movie clips for the images in frames or keyframes, the beginning movie clips only play part of the way before the images show up. This happens even though the images' movie clips are on frames/keyframes (I've tried both) after the other movie clips.
The movie clips that are supposed to play first are each on a separate layer and there are two of them.
The first layer is called "tree" and the second is called "text"
The tree layer has a 45-frame gif animation that I have turned into a movie clip. I have created a motion tween and changed its alpha so that the gif has a fading in and out effect. I also have it so that it stops replaying once it reaches the last frame. I am using stop(); for this.
The text layer has a 40-frame gif animation that I have also turned into a gif. This gif is also a movie clip and also has motion tween. Its alpha has also been changed.
Both tree and text play together successfully and how I want them to.
The sequence of images is three separate images, each a different layer, that fade into eachother. These images are pngs, therefore they aren't gifs nor do they have their own frames.
The bottom layer is called floor1 and has frames 1 through 50 of motion tween and alpha adjustments fading the png image. The image is a movie clip.
The layer on top is called floor2 and has frames 51-100 of a different png image fading.
The very top layer is called floor3 and has frames 101-150 of yet another png fading.
The images are successful in doing what they are supposed to.
Layers tree and text are one fla file, and layers floor1, floor2, and floor3 are a separate fla file.
When I copy the frames from layers floor1, floor2, and floor3 into a keyframe after layers text and tree, they transfer properly, but when I test the animation, the image sequence shows up a lot sooner than it is supposed to, interrupting the movie clips on the layers text and tree. I have tried moving the floor# layers' keyframes farther down the timeline, but then the other movie clips just stop.
In the fla file with layers text and tree, I've imported the gifs into the library and then put them onto the stage.
In the fla file with the floor# layers, I've imported the pngs into the stage.
Here's what the text and tree layers look like:
Here's what the floor# layers look like:
The rest of the frames for the floor#s...
So, I thought that the problem was that I needed to delay the image squence. I looked around and found no code or anything for that..
Afterwards, I thought that it was because I had imported the tree and text gifs to the library before putting them on the stage.
I opened a new fla and imported the "tree" gif straight to the stage.
I figured that this should work because then it would show each of the individual frames in the movie clips, which it doesn't do in the above pictures. By importing the gif like this, it does show the individual frames. I've tested this with the image sequence and it works fine. But I have a problem with this method too..
I select all of the frames for the gif to convert into a symbol, so I can add a motion tween and mess with the alpha. However, only the last frame is converted into a movie clip. Well actually no... Only the circled frames below are turned into the movie clip. Even when all of the frames are selected. This isn't very helpful because then I can't change the alpha for the entire gif nor can I create a motion tween without getting a message saying that the motion tween could not be applied to all of the frames.
Here's what this version of "tree" looks like.
And the frames continue like so until 135.
The frames that are turned into the movie clip are circled below.
If I can solve the issue that I'm having with the tree shown in the two pictures above this sentence, then I can display the movie clips and image sequence without a problem. It wouldn't be quite how I had intended it to be, but it would be successful and would still work.
If I can fix the problem with the image sequence showing up to early, and of the tree and text movie clips being cut off, then this project would also be successful and it would be how I had wanted it to be.
If you need clarification, let me know and I'll explain something better.
I am not willing to provide a download link in this forum for my fla files, but I can email them to you if you would like a look. I just don't want someone to be able to find them and take them by doing a google search.
I have uploaded two swfs though.
The first is of the tree and text layers/movie clips working as they are supposed to. The second is of the image sequence (floor1, floor2, floor3) doing what it is supposed to.
Text and tree: http://glassoliverdesigns.weebly.com/uploads/1/0/6/5/10653451/tfg1.swf
Floor1, floor2, floor3: http://glassoliverdesigns.weebly.com/uploads/1/0/6/5/10653451/tfg2.swf
Notice how at the end of the text and tree swf, when the text stops the thing in the background keeps flashing. If that can keep flashing WHILE the images appear, then that would be great.
TL;DR: I want the floor# flash to show up after the text and tree flash but I keep having problems and nothing I try is working properly.

Very concise question, appreciate the screenshots. One thing that motion tweens don't always show very well is keyframes. Let me clear a few things up and see if it helps.
Go back to what you wanted to do originally, which is copying the frames from one document to another. This is perfectly fine and to clear it up, it will also copy any library elements (images, clips, etc) that are required to copy those frames for you, so you do not need to import them yourself.
To successfully copy frames (not symbols), select the first frame of the frames you want to copy, hold shift and select the last frame (alternatively double clicking anywhere in the blue motion tween should select it all as well). Now right-click and "Copy Frames". Now go into your new document, select a frame, right-click and select Paste Frames. You will see the same frames copied over, the blue representing the tween and keyframes came with it and you finally will notice all your images/etc were copied into your library.
Now is a good time to manage the library clutter that was just copied in, if you're a clean freak like me.
This process is the same, as you tried, for the other documents you want to copy in. If any resources match in name then Flash will ask you if you want to "overwrite" that library item. If you do that, you will break one of your previous animations. Make sure that's not the case.
The common gotcha here is not knowing how to slide frames over properly. If overwriting isn't the issue, this is what I suspect your problem is and as you expand/contract the timeline the keyframes aren't going with you.
For example if I import 2 clips with fade in/out and move keyframes as you did I'll get something like this:
Now moving them over I would be very careful to select all of the frames I want to move via the methods above. Click the first frame, hold shift and select the last frame, or double-click anywhere in the middle of the blue. The selection of frames:
Now I simply drag my selected frames to the right, notice the keyframes stay as they should (the black dots):
The animation plays as expected.
Lastly I'm not sure if you've ever used the panel but you should really get used to the Motion Editor. This gives you control over easing as well as shows you an in-depth view of the keyframes that exist in a selected motion tween.
At first this panel may look complex but it simply represents the basic properties you can animate. Any more properties you animate can be added in here. I moved the X, Y and Alpha properties of my object. So you can see over the frames 30-60 what I did. You can also adjust basic easing here.
If your animations don't look correct you can select a motion tween, open the motion editor and verify the keyframes look correct. Scrub the timeline and look at the values you're interested in. Alpha for example, for you.
If you don't see any keyframes when you scrub the timeline, you moved your frames over incorrectly and the keyframes probably exist in a different place and therefore it appears incorrect.
