  • Is there a way of viewing photos from a USB stick without adding them to my iPhoto Library

    Is there a way of viewing photos from a USB stick without adding them to my iPhoto Library? I am using OS Snow Leopard.

    Use the Preview application. If you have it in your dock you can drag a group of photos to the icon and they'll open with the first picture large and the rest as thumbnails to the side. Use the buttons at the top to go to the next picture and zoom in or out.

  • I want to remove all of my photos out of iPhoto there are approximately 35000 some imported from an old hard drive and a SD Card from my Nikon D500 how do I do this

    I want to remove all of my photos out of iPhoto there are approximately 35000 some imported from an old hard drive and a SD Card from my Nikon D500 how do I do this?
    I have iPhoto version 9.1.5 (615)
    Mac OS X version 10.6.8
    I want to do this because when I imported from my old hard drive there was an error message stating that 12 photos were not imported as the programm did not recognise the format even though they were jpegs like the other photos in that particular album. The dates of the photo folders are wrong I have multiple copies of photos and every time I start iPhoto I get the following message 12 photos have been found in the iPhoto library that were not imported would you like to import them No or Yes
    if you press Yes the same message comes back again and if you press Yes again the program flicks to last import for 2 seconds and then opens events.
    if you press No the message The photos have been placed in the folder/user/judith/pictures/iphoto Library recovered photos then if you press OK the original message 12 photos have been found.............
    if you press No at this point the message The photos have been placed in the folder/user /judith/pictures/iphoto Library recovered photos_11 the end number goes up by 1 every time you go through this process
    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Did you import an iPhoto Library from the old Hard Drive? Do you still have that old Library?
    The way to clear out a Library is to Export the photos - Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events.
    For the annoying start-up message:
    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
    Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
    Start iPhoto. Does that help?
    If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

  • After installinf ios6 I lost all contacts, I could not get them back so I hit restore. This restored the phone to 4 months back. The phone did not give me the option to restore from the cloud. is there anyway I can now restore from the cloud?

    How many backups are in the cloud? When I installed ios6 it backed up to the cloud, since then I restored the phone trying to regain my contacts. At this point the used the last backup I performed on the computer 5 months ago. I never had the oppertunity to restore from the cloud. Is there anyway I can now restoe from the cloud and would it have the backup that was performed when I installed ios6?

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  This will erase your phone.  Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your phone is new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.

  • When adding a printer share within Print Management receive "There are no more endpoints available from the endpoint mapper."

    I've installed Server 2012 as a print server (Print server will be the only function of this server). I'm now trying to add printers. The first one I've added is a HP 2035 with the Windows update HP Universal PCL6 driver. If I chose to share the printer
    during the setup I receive "There are no more endpoints available from the endpoint mapper." If I choose not to share during the setup, it adds without any issues...until I launch Properties and attempt to share it. I'm finding it doesn't seem to
    matter what driver I use, whenever I share I end up with the same result. I've also tried using the PCL6 Universal Driver from HP, no change. I'e been researching this issue for hours without any change. By default, we disable firewalls on servers (Some TN
    thread suggested checking to ensure the firewall is disabled). Spooler isn't crashing. I've tried adding a few others printers, running into the exact same issue. Why is trying to share the printers causing this issue?

    I've seen some people state they get this error when disabling the Windows Firewall service.  I've never seen the error with the service disabled but it may be the replacement software interfering.
    If it's off start up the service and let us know the outcome.

    Hi,
    Unfortunately I already tried all kinds of re-installs (the full list is in my original message). The only one remaining is the reinstall of Windows 8 itself, which I would really like to avoid.
    What I find really strange is the time it takes for the above error message to appear. It's like one hour or even more (never measured exactly, I left the computer running).
    What kind of a timeout is that? I would expect that, if ports are really used by some other application, I get the message in less than a minute (seconds, actually). To me this looks like the emulator itself for some reason believes there's a problem with
    some port while in reality there isn't.
    I'll eventually contact Microsoft Support, thanks for the suggestion.

  • Can't print from iMac USB; works from AEBS

    I have an Epson CX6600 printer. Normally it's connected to my AEBS so that I can access it from all my computers (2 Mac, 1 Windows) and the printer works fine. However, when it's connected to the AEBS I can't scan directly to the computer, use the Epson Smart Panel, etc - so to do that I hook the printer up directly to the iMac's USB port. Works fine for scanning, but I can't print from the USB port on the iMac. Is there something I need to do to enable printing from a built in USB port on the iMac? I'm stumped! I'm using Panther.

    Got lucky and figured it out myself! I had to install the printer as a USB printer; it had been only installed via the AEBS as a Rendezvous printer.

  • Problems installing Windows 7 from a USB stick

  • Playing content from a USB stick on an Edge 340

    Is it possible to have an Edge 300 or 340 play content from a USB stick?  This works on DMP 4310s but wondering if this is possible with an Edge device?  Have a customer that uses digital signs but can't always have network connectivity so places video content on a USB stick to play through the DMP without network connectivity.
    Thanks
    John

    Hi,
    Note: The 4310 itself has had a significant API overhaul in the latest firmware release.
    Now, the Cisco Edge has its own set of APIs, see FAQ at http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/video/edge-340-digital-media-player/q-and-a-c67-729672.html
    Some of the native API is documented here but its mostly system management commands:
    http://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/td/docs/switches/lan/cisco_edge_340/software/release/1_0/configuration/guide/340cg_en.pdf
    The 340 is pretty much a regular Fedora 16 Linux system, it runs binaries and RPMs from that release (it can be tricky because the installed ones have edge340 in the package name, this wreaks havoc on dependencies so I'm trying to stick with static vs linked binaries and not mess with the stock RPM database) so you can modify it to do anything Linux can do.
    One example that would not break your setup or modify it: You can SCP content to the local flash storage (or a USB stick if you wish) and remotely issue a VLC command line via ssh to play that local media in full screen mode. We have been experimenting with playing multicast video URLs in this manner by providing a multicast address and port on the command line.
    Since as I mentioned, it's just a Linux box, I have a prototype I've updated to a later version of VLC than what was included so it's hard for me to say "oh, this works great" because mine isn't stock anymore. I've also hacked it to do Airplay (apple) mirroring from my iPhone or Macbook Pro for example.
    (Just don't nuke the restore partition on the flash media. I have had to roll it back to stock once or twice.)
    Our BU (we're an end user of the 340) has done various things on the 340 like emulating the 4310's api with a java daemon that responds to similar commands. I don't know if this is fully complete or an approach we're moving forward with. I think we only need to emulate a small portion of the legacy 4310 commands. But it's another example of the versatility of the 340, whereas on the 4310 with its sigmatel processor, I had a lot of trouble compiling useful binaries that would execute on it for various troubleshooting and QA activity.
    I only bring some of these points up because the 340 may be an interesting and useful endpoint for other vendors who may wish to evaluate and use our product in other ways than just the Appspace route.

  • After BIOS Update cannot boot Satellite C640 using USB Stick

    After upgrading my Toshiba Satellite C640-10E (PSC02E) bios to 2.00 WIN, I cannot boot the laptop using USB Stick, When I checked the BIOS using F2 I was stunned because the USB connected to laptop was labeled as FLOPPY drive. Is there any option to downgrade the BIOS?
    Thanks

    From my experience the BIOS is able to boot from
    - USB FDD (floppy disk)
    - Primary HDD,
    - USB Memory stick
    - Network (LAN)
    So I dont think that your USB memory is recognized as a USB FDD but the USB FDD appears as a separate boot device.
    It would be interesting to know if another USB flash memory would act as your old USB flash stick.
    PS: as Tonny suggested: you cannot downgrade because you dont have previous BIOS version only Toshiba service agents are able to downgrade the BIOS using traditional BIOS.

  • How do I delete a file from my USB Stick

    I have a new MacBook Pro with retina display.
    I have just put in my USB flash drive which contains some movies (MP4 format).
    I am unable to even move the files to the trash.
    When I "double click" I only get options to open/ create alias etc
    When I hold down CMD and DELETE I get nothing.
    How do I delete a simple file from my USB stick??
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Thanks for the reply.
    Just to re-iterate...for some reason my Macbook doesn't seem to be providing enough power to the EHD through the USB ports.
    So in recap.
    1.  Is there anyway to get more power to my USB port to power the EHD
    2. If not, how do I transfer my contents of my EHD to my Macbook without wiping the EHD first
    thanks
