Themes missing and corrupted for iBooks

Like others, I suddenly have only three themes for books, despite having previously creted books saved in other themes. Most odd is going to the large format book options, where I have two different themes--and everything is in Italian. I recently reinstalled iPhoto 8, had to delete my preference (*.plist) files, in order to get slideshows working. Now slideshows work but my book themes are toast. HELP. I don't want to go through yet another reinstall.

You'll need to do the following:
Restoring iPhoto Themes
First look in your User/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder for a Themes folder. If you find it there move it to the HD/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder and reboot. Then try iPhoto again. That may save you having to go thru the reinstallation process described below:
1 - delete the current application.
2 - delete any files with iPhoto in the file name that reside in your HD/Library/Receipts folder.
3 - delete the Themes folder from your User/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder. Also look in the HD/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder for a Themes folder. If there is one there then delete it also.
4 - mount the system disk that came with your computer, double click on the "Install Bundled Software Only" file and do a custom install selecting only iPhoto.
After installing reinstall the latest iPhoto updater again followed by a repair of disk permissions with Disk Utility. Also make sure you're running the latest Quicktime version.

  • How do I fix missing and corrupted images after update to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and Aperture 3.4?

    Last night I tried to update to Aperture 3.4 on my MacBook Pro (late 2007 / 3,1 model) and received a message that I needed to install Mountain Lion 10.8.2 first.  However, there was no update in my App Store account for 10.8.2.  The update for 10.8.2 appeared above the Aperture 3.4 update after I restarted the laptop and rechecked for updates.  I proceeded to update Mountain Lion and then Aperture.  Everything seemed to be working fine so I opened Aperture 3.4 and watched it update the database without any issues...
    Upon examining the small library (of approximately 1200 images totaling about 8 GB) that I leave on this MacBook Pro specifically for testing Aperture updates, I observed the following:
    I know anything can happen with stored images, so I try to create redundancy by duplicating important photos on import to an external device, running Time Machine backups and keeping memory cards stored away until I am comfortable with the integrity of the first 2 methods.  I am not really worried about this specific Aperture Library on this laptop because it has become my "laboratory" for testing new updates before we apply them to our other computers.
    In general, I try not to be too early of an adopter when it comes to software and updates--even though I have had remarkably few problems with Apple updates in the past.  However, my success rate with Apple's products and "feature curiosity" occasionally leads me to update early!  It is my curiosity that, again, has me wondering:  What went wrong and how can I fix this in case it happens to something important in the future?

    I still don't know what happened to my test Aperture Library after the update to 3.4...Not only were my previews lost, but so were the original images!  Needless to say, I haven't bothered to update the main library on the Mac Pro because I don't want to deal with this level of uncertainty (even with backups in place).

  • Creating a template in Pages is straight-forward as answered here previously. Is there and equivalent for iBooks Author which can start with a blank page and build up the template as required? or can one only adapt a ready made template?

    Creating a template in Pages is straight-forward as answered here previously. Is there an equivalent for iBooks Author which can start with a blank page and build up the template as required? or can one only adapt a ready made template? This has proved unsatisfactory to me so far. Lines are left in etc.

    There are two basic menus for fonts - one from the main menu bar and one from the toolbar. You can also bring up the font manage dialog.
    I don't recommend trying to hard to force an otherwise foreign font, as it inevitably needs to be usable/supported on iOS as well, and that can get tricky w/3rd party fonts, as an example, even with the expanded font support in the latest iBA.
    If you need to discuss fonts more, I suggest starting a new thread....preferably with a slightly more brief title, thanks.

  • Workflow and uses for iBooks Author ?

    02-04-2012 Sat 
    Before I begin I want to thank the developer team from Apple for the last update. Now all the iBooks in my library are opening smoothly and the system is not locking up anymore. Thanks guys.
    Besides the typical Questions, Problems, Suggestions, . . . I'd like to hear how others WRITERS are using iBooks and how they have incorporated it into their daily workflow.
    I don't think there are many writers out there using iBooks Author as a complete replacement for their notes, outlines, and drafts. But, I would think that they would share some kind of common approach before publishing a book.
    For me, I'm guessing you would need a good calendar to keep a schedule, a notebook to catch all your thoughts and some form of a word processor to organize your thoughts, create an outline, and start writing the chapters.
    The combination of The iPhone, Siri, iCal and Notes seems to work perfectly to catch thoughts before they make it to a written page. Thank you Apple.
    Entering text directly into iBooks never worked well for me. So I prefer to pre-write the copy and paste it into my iBooks file. To do this I use an app called iA Writer  but you always have the option to use Pages if you feel more comfortable in that environment.
    I'm sure we would all like to think that we are going to start publishing books and make a lot of money. But odds of that happening are very slim. The point is to focus on the true strength of using iBooks Author and for me that is publishing my own content to my iPad.
    Here are a few examples that I would like to share with you, if you have any others ideas please post your thoughts here.
    Make your own List of Affirmations.
    Once you read a book you can always write a review that highlights your thoughts at the time of reading.
    Create a Menu or your own recipe book.
    Create scrapbook.
    Document a time period.
    Use it as a business tool to distribute company information to clients.
    A student can maintain class notes, highlight them, and create study cards.
    Create some form of yearbook or travel log.
    I recently made a complete timeline that includes all the major events in my life. 
    Don't forget you can use aperture to create a short introduction video explaining who you are and why you are publishing your book.
    Well thats my list, I'd like to hear your ideas. Thanks for listening - John Franco

  • Unlocking hidden frames and strokes for iBooks Author

    Perhaps you know that there are hidden frames and strokes available for Pages, Keynote, and Numbers. There is even an installer (http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/32390/frames-and-strokes-installer).

    OK-here oare my modified plists. They work for me to allow the use of the new frames I hope you find them useful
    1) Right click on the ibook author icon under applications and show package contents
    2) Navigate to Contents:Resources and make a copy of KFGraphicInspectorFrames.plist ; SLGraphicInspectorFrames.plist and KFGraphicInspectorSmartStrokes.plist.
    3) Copy the plists below into your Resources folder.
    4) Close and open author- Your new frames and strokes should be available under inspector.

  • Some missing and corrupt IPTC metadata on export

    As a Lightroom user I'm trying Aperture 3, I may be missing something or failing somewhere...
    I've imported some RAW files which already have IPTC metadata, captions, copyright, keywords etc. On export the copyright field has corrupted, the symbol © becomes ¬© and a few fields are missing. I don't have a date, rights usage and the image is marked as unknown copyright status.
    All of that data (except copyright status) appears in Aperture so I'd expect to see it in an exported JPEG. Everything appears as I expect when making a JPEG from Lightroom.
    Thanks for any comments or advice.

    As a matter of fact, it doesn't export costum filds at all.
    By definition, custom fields are non-standard, and therefore aren't included in the exported file as they won't mean anything to other software. This has been the case since Aperture 1.0 and has absolutely nothing to do with other metadata problems.
    Your website will likely be reading IPTC tags so if you want the information to be readable you'll have to find some appropriate IPTC tags to store the information in.

  • Missing and Corrupted Photos?

    When I view photos on a connected iPhone 4 (iOS 4.0.1) in either Image Capture or Aperture, I see only a few photos (instead of the dozens on the phone), and those that I do see cannot be copied to the desktop (I get a corrupted file error).
    Is anyone else seeing this? Is there a fix?

    Ah, never mind:
    The OS (as seen in ImageCapture and Aperture, at least) was still somehow "connected" to my old iPhone (which is not even in the same room). Rebooting the desktop fixed the problem.

  • Using Google GWT to create (Dashcode) widgets for iBook Author  I would like to embed interactive widgets in iBooks using iBookAuthor. The widgets in question started life in Java but GWT has allowed them to be converted to javascript and to run on web pa

    I would like to embed interactive widgets in iBooks using iBookAuthor. The widgets in question started life in Java but GWT has allowed them to be converted to javascript and to run on web pages (for example, http://softoption.us/content/node/437 scroll to the bottom). In theory, iBookAuthor can bring in most html5, and much javascript. The technique is to wrap the html in a folder, with 2 extra files, a plist and a default png and then change the extension of the folder to ‘.wdgt’. This is the technique for making Dashboard widgets for the Mac, and Apple even have the Dashcode software to do it. So what you really do is to make a Dashboard widget, then iBookAuthor can import it.  So far, so good. And some  folk have been doing this, for example http://www.prweb.com/releases/2012/2/prweb9242432.htm http://www.panophoto.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=10417&p=158330#p158423 However, if you start with GWT and create a single page with one button and a Hello World, compile it, and get the WAR file (I use Eclipse here)… the Safari browser and others will run it properly (even on an iPad). Then if you wrap it, a proper Dashboard widget is created, which runs properly on a Mac. Then if you go to iBookAuthor and put a custom widget in the Text, then drag it in. It is accepted by the text and shown as being there. However, if you use Preview to look at it on an iPad, it is gone (or was never there in the first place). Anyone any ideas on this? [And iBook Author seems to give no warnings.] The widget is at https://dl.dropbox.com/u/46713473/Test6.wdgt.zip I have bells and whistles that I’d like to get into an iBook!
    Thanks for any insights.
    Martin

    I do have a little to add, which might help someone. Indeed, opening a blank page and dragging the widget straight in seems good in difficult cases. But, actually, I was also able to insert successfully from the Toolbar especially to blank pages. So, it may have been something to do with the columns and stuff like that. Anyway back then the insertion would show in iBooks Author but not in the Preview on the iPad. I moved on to actual Google Web Toolkit output javascript. Basically I had three at hand to try: a Hello World with a button which went straight it, one of moderate complexity, (for example with a built in Lisp interpreter), which also went straight in, and finally a more complex one that initially was rejected by iBook Author. Author complained that there was an unsupported media file (of course, Author does not tell you which one it is, that would be too easy). [Remember, this was a proper working Dashboard widget which could be installed on a Mac]. Among other things I had read remarks about .gif files. When looking through the GWT war directory at the actual javascript etc files, I noticed there were two gifs there one called ‘clear.cache.gif ‘  and a second one called  ‘0F89659FF3F324AE4116F700257E32BD.cache.gif’. (Now, there is obfuscation so the numbers here may be different from case to case.) The clear.cache.gif did not seem to be anything special. But the other one is an animation. It is three little boxes that twinkle (rather like a waiting spinning cursor).  So, I opened that file and saved it to itself (that picks the top frame of the animation and saves only that, leaving you with an unanimated gif). The resulting widget drags and drops into iBooks Author (and seems to work properly at a quick glance). So, if you are having trouble with ‘unsupported media files’ converting animated gifs into unanimated gifs might help in some cases.

  • Do the Templates and Themes for iBooks Author include the flip page animation?

    Well, this question is concern about something similar asked by romondodavis on 28-mar-2012  (https://discussions.apple.com/message/17981772#17981772) and also answered by K T.
    So my question refers to know if when buying the Templates and Themes for iBooks Author the curl/turn/flip animation is included with them or should I have to buy necessary Pages so I can generate those industry standard e-pubs as K T suggests in order to get the turn page animation enabled by default?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi there,
    You're running an old version of Safari. Before troubleshooting, try updating it to the latest version: 6.0. You can do this by clicking the Apple logo in the top left, then clicking Software update.
    You can also update to the latest version of OS X, 10.8 Mountain Lion, from the Mac App Store for $19.99, which will automatically install Safari 6 as well, but this isn't essential, only reccomended.
    Thanks, let me know if the update helps,

  • Hi ,I barely got this from USPS ,and it's used ibook G4 ,I don't know a password from there username I couldn't even use it because it already used ?do you how to restore the whole system for iBook G4 ,without the password

    Hi ?okay barley got this from USPS but it's in used ,somebody already own this ibook G4 ,I only use it for 1 min on this OS X and then when I try to go any file I have to  type in a password ,but I don't know the password ?do you how to restore everything and restart everything ,without the password?

    The seller should have included a bootable OS X system DVD that would work in that computer; preferrably one that matches the OS X installed in the computer when you got it. Have you contacted the seller?
    If you can find the serial number and any other model identifier of the iBook portable, you could probably get a Replacement OS X Tiger 10.4 system DVD from Apple for about $20; a white-label disc that should work in an old iBook G4. This should not be an original install-restore disc specific to the iBook, but there may be one available. (Originals shipped with a Mac were gray color and say the computer name, and those discs have a part number related to the Mac models build year, etc they shipped with.) A 'replacement' white disc should work with more than one specific series of Mac that could support the OS X.
    As these computers get older and farther away from the date of manufacture, replacement discs or copies of original software kits, no longer made, are harder to come by. However the white label 'replacement' from AppleCare, may be the ticket, if you can order one and if they still have them. And, if it works.
    With a system disc, you can erase and install (or secure erase, reformat, & install, then update) a system on the hard disk drive. By doing the secure erase, the Disk Utility will write a pass of zeros over the old content and that can help clear up old issues in a questionable used computer's hard disk drive, but you'd need an OS X install disc. You can call AppleCare or Apple Sales Support (not the main store or main online pages, its not a regular item) and if you are lucky, you may talk to someone who knows these exist. A few ASC discussion threads have mentioned these, and people who bought them posted pictures of the actual discs.
    There are some ways to attempt to reset an admin password, usually with the install disc for OS X; but another way using Single-user mode or command-line Terminal, to go into unix and change settings at a level beneath the graphic user interface.

    •With an OS X disc, how to reset lost passwords:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1274
    You'll have to search and reword for other online ideas.
    If you bought the iBook from an auction, suggest they
    should include the disc, since it implies a license to
    have the system software installed. It is the proof.
    The replacement OS X install disc for Tiger or Leopard
    (depending on the computer, what it may use best) are
    ideas, so ask AppleCare about them. If you can, get
    both, so you may have one that does the job.
    PS: If someone set an Open Firmware password, that
    is another matter to access the locked computer. At a
    level of security higher than Admin, near impossible.
    Almost as bad as encrypting the hard drive.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Advice and Internet Software Applications for iBook G3?

    Ok, So I did it late last night, or technically early this morning... I went and bought a Refurbished MacBook - Black 2.0GHz Core Duo with 512mb RAM (in 2x265 sticks which I am replacing with 2x1gb sticks purchased from TigerDirect at the same time) 80gb HDD, Superdrive, Built-in iSight, Bluetooth, Ethernet, and Airport Extreme. Basically the same as the new ones that they are selling except it is only a Core Duo and not Core2 Duo... Will get my AppleCare from LA Company (thanks Ronda for the link, they have great prices) in a month or 2 after testing out the MacBook and making sure I won't need to send it back...
    Anyways, this post is not supposed to be about the bragging of the new laptop (due to arrive Tue or Wed, heh), but about finding some good mac software (hopefully freeware or shareware) to use for internet stuff on my old iBook G3, which I am giving to my roommate to use (he will use his desktop for most of his heavy speed/memory/graphics needs and the ibook as an extra mobile internet tool). Basically, he used to use a mac when he was married (an old power pc with OS9 on it) but once he moved out and got the big D, has used windows XP since then, and has never seen OSX at all I don't think, so he definitely hasn't used it before.
    He mainly likes to browse web sites and use IRC (he uses mIRC) and watches the free streaming videos from sites like Yahoo... He seemed unsure whether he would find use of it (the ibook), but I am thinking it's because he doesn't know how much better it can be with OSX (10.2.8) than OS9...
    So I am asking for help in a way to show some nice simple ways he could work it into his routine (while still using the desktop pc) and have it not be a hassle to "learn" and find programs he wants to use (in comparison to ones he has for windows). Again, this will be for lighter applications because of the 500 MHz speed (has 576mb RAM).
    He (unlike me) does not use Mozilla Firefox and therefore does not use its extentions and themes and other add-ons, but sticks to IE7 (which is crazy), but I think it is more out of laziness to try something new and to have to go and add on the extentions (compared to if they are built-in to the browser). So since I never had much experience using the different web browsers for mac, which ones would be most like IE, I know Firefox is available for macs, are there any that are simple basic, but could have things added on to it or customized more (yes, I know I am describing Firefox)?
    Also, if wanting to use an application for music, but you wanted it to be smaller than the size of iTunes (and not need as much memory while running it), is there one you would say to go for? Any good mac IRC programs (not messenger things but specific to the IRC protocol)? Ones that have additional scripts you can run for them (he is really into that, he uses Excursion 9.5 alot too)?
    I do not want to throw the iBook at him and say here, use it, and walk away, and I also don't want to go and show him every little thing that it does, but want to just find some programs that he might actually use on it right away, and ease himself into using the ibook on a regular basis (I would install everthing for him, and set up all the system preferences and if he actually keeps on using the ibook, I will give him little "lessons" on how to change things, install stuff etc). I threw myself into my ibook as that is what I tend to do with anything electronic and tech like (I am the biggest tech geek around), but I know that alot of others can't do the same and need to slowly learn how to swim in the mac pool, with those floaty arm band things and floating kickboards and all...
    Any advise on how to do this for someone that I know would end up loving the ibook and OSX for more basic stuff, but just needs that gentle nudge in the right direction and the right kind of software to make him feel comfortable using it, would be greatly appreciated.
    And yes, if he doesn't want to use it after that nudge, I will back off and take it back to sell (or just have a 3rd laptop hanging around, but then I will feel like the old lady with an apartment full of laptops -and other lonely tech gear).

    Some people use VLC for watching video, but, in my experience, you are not going to get good streaming video on a 500 MHz iBook.
    Shut down all other applications and maybe even restart the iBook before trying to watch YouTube or whatever. I've not had much success with it. (You are talking about a 5½-year-old computer, after all.)
    I don't even know what IRC is. It sounds like it's a chat client? If so, iChat works great for me. It uses the AIM protocol.
    I would stick with Apple applications. I prefer Safari as my web browser, but Firefox would probably be my second choice. Camino is good. Other browsers out there are iCab, Opera, and OmniWeb, and I may be forgetting some of them. Safari is the one that comes with OS X, and it's my pick over all the others. Once he gets used to tabbed browsing, he will wonder what he ever saw in Explorer (and I was a die-hard Internet Explorer fan, too).
    I know of no better music app for a Mac than iTunes. Just so simple.
