Turning Old "Synced" Online Images Into Fully Managed Albums
What is the model for old online albums — i.e. for those with images synced with Aperture but not uploaded originally from the Aperture library? It seems these "downloaded" images behave as of they live online, and cannot be fully edited or managed in Aperture. Is that right? Is there a way to transform such images into full Aperture library images? Or is the only way to do this to to (a) really download the image to Aperture and then (b) re-upload (and replace) the downloaded image on the server (typically loosing any server data for the image in the process)?
Yes, you cannot adjust Remote Images. You should be able to just drag the images from the Mobile Me album to an existing Project in your library and there by making them "local". You can then drag them back to the web album in question, delete the remote version and re publish. You do lose what was associated with the initial remote image though.

I imported 635 images into an iPhoto album so that I can share them via a photo-stream. However, iPhoto says there are only 600. When I try to add the missing images it says they are already there. Why can i not see these images in iPhoto?
Generally I would not use Facebook for sharing any photos, it compresses the photos substantially, and when you have shadows and dark colours you get visible "bands" where there should be subtle gradients, ie at sunsets and sunrises.
It sounds like you are using two methods to upload to Facebook:
1. Sharing from within Aperture, which basically syncs Facebook with your Aperture album, so any changes made at either end gets synced, hence the deletions from Albums, although the original file should still be in your library, just removed rom the album. It is like a playlist in iTunes.
2. Exporting pics and uploading to Facebook from the browser.
I am not sure how method 1 gets compressed, but I know that uploading hi-res jpegs to Facebook using method 2 results in poor quality images.
I wouldn't even bother comparing option 1 or 2, and they will both be poor images once you view them on Facebook, as opposed to viewing uploaded images on proper image sharing / hosting sites.
Your problem is not with Aperture, it is using Facebook for showing your work.
If you export pics form Aperture at high res jpegs or TIFFs your images will be fine.
If you insist to use Facebook as your way to share your work, then your workflow should be this:
1. Right click images you want to share.
2. Select Export version.
3. Export as 100% size and ensure the export settings are set at 100% quality.
4. Upload this pic into Facebook.
This will get you the best image size and resolution on Facebook.
See how you go. -

Viewing online images in native phone apps with AIR?
Gidday guys
What's the standard way of loading an online image into a native phone app? An image that can't be packaged with the app as it may have been changed by the user eg a profile picture, or their logo?
CheersYes - I do this with my desktop AIR app.
What I'm wondering though is it OK to do this for phone apps, or is there some advantage to emedding the images and putting them in your project's assets folder? eg phones being able to cache images from assets, but not if the images are built into the swf. -
What steps do I take to turn my old 1st Gen Ipad into an "IPod" of sorts?
I Have a new IPad Air now, and want to take my old IPad and turn it into use for music only...sort of like an IPod....I have transferred all photos and everything out so I am ready to wipe it clean. Do I do the complete reset? Will I still be able to connect to iTunes to download music if I completely reset it?
Steps to accomplish this would be appreciated.....I am not a computer whiz....but I can follow directions! . Thanks for any help.Ok...I seem to have made a major goof and can't figure out from the support pages how to rectify this.
I went to set my old iPad to "restore"---and find that I have de-authorized and removed the old one from my list of managed devices in iTunes.
I have it plugged into my computer and to iTunes but it's not recognizing it so I can reauthorize it.....Usually when you connect the USB of any apple device "something" shows up....
I could use your help here again. I have tried to find out the answer to this on my own but "reauthorize" seems only to apply to computers---not devices. Thanks in advance.... -
How do I turn an image into a transparency?
Hi,
There's a question I've seen asked dozens or hundreds of times, and I thought I found an answer a few years ago. I've since forgotten how to do it:
Turn an image into a transparency.
Now, the obvious solution is to set the layer to "multiply." Yes, this is the effect I want. However, I want the layer to be transparent instead.
Another solution is to draw an image on a transparent layer. This works great, but only applies if I create the image from scratch. I want to convert an existing image.
Another solution is multiple steps:
1) Copy image
2) Click "edit in quick mask mode."
3) Paste image
4) Exit quick mask mode.
5) Invert selection.
6) Ctrl+backspace to fill selection with black, on a blank transparent layer.
Result? The image is now transparent! However, this converts the image to greyscale! Great for linework and text, terrible for photos or art!
In an older version of Photoshop 7, I believe I got the following to work:
A) Follow the previous steps 1-6, creating a layer with transparency
B) Copy the original picture to a layer above the transparency
C) Group the layer with the transparency layer below. (Note, grouping doesn't work the same any more.)
D) The top layer provides the colors, but the bottom layer provides the transparency.
E) It is too light, so you take the top layer, and maximize "saturation" 100%.
F) Merge the two layers. It retains the transparency of the bottom layer, with the hue of the top layer.
This no longer works, because I don't know how grouping layers works anymore.
So, I need white pixels to be transparent. Black pixels to have zero transparency. Red pixels to have zero transparency. Etc.
Meanwhile, grey pixels are solid black, but partly transparent. Pink pixels are solid red, but partly transparent.
All pixels are 100% saturated, and the "lightness" is determined by how transparent they are.
So, an analogy would be printing a photo on a transparency. I need to convert an image to a transparency.
If the image/layer were overlaid on white, it would look exactly like the original photo.
Does anyone know how to accomplish this? Mathematically, it's easy. But I don't know about any filter, process, or method to make the conversion using CS5.
Thanks,
BenHello!
I hope that I understand what you need.
(One could just put the image on a layer, and lower its opacity, but you seem to be looking for an effect in wich the tranparency is not the same for all pixels.)
Try this:
1) Turn your image image as a layer (double-click it if it is a background layer) [In order to add a mask]
2) Select all, Copy (CTRL+a, CTRL+C)
3) add a layer mask (click the rectangle with a circle in the bottom of the layers panel) [to be able to change transparency]
4) target the mask [so that you can past an image in it] ALT+click the mask, paste the image.
5) Invert the colors of the mask (CTRL+I) [in order for the white to be transparent and the black opaque].
You now have a layer whose transparency is based on the lightness of the pixels.
Hope that's what you are after!

Copy/paste images into pages within sharepoint online?
There seems to be a workaround to use RadControl for this. (http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/655c080f-ec1e-4e69-b082-d35973ee426a/copy-and-paste-for-images-in-sharepoint)
However, I don't think we can deploy custom app/binaries onto sharepoint online.
Is there other way we can easily copy/past images into pages?
Thxyou cannot paste the images into sharepoint pages directly, Images cannot be rendered as HTML so cannot be pasted.
You have to upload the images into SharePoint then insert it on the pages /places you want.
or other work aorund buy the 3rd party tool which you mentioned.
Please remember to mark your question as answered &Vote helpful,if this solves/helps your problem. ****************************************************************************************** Thanks -WS MCITP(SharePoint 2010, 2013) Blog: http://wscheema.com/blog -
Help! Illustrator turned my paths with gradients into (pixel) images.
This occured after I masked a portion of the illustration and then unmasked it. Now I am unable to alter the shapes because Illustrator is seeing them as placed images.
This has never happened before! Is this a glitch in Illustrator or can it be fixed? I spent many hours on this illustration.No, I had created the mask, saved and closed the file. I didn't realize what happened until I opened it up again and wanted to alter the image some more. Actually, I should be more specific about what Illustrator did. When I unmasked the illustration, it had turned all of the images with paths (that also had a feather on them) into LINKS. They appear to be embedded. But I didn't link anything. So I guess I should be okay if I need to resize it?? I just am not able to edit those shapes any longer. Very strange. I've never had this happen before.

How do I get my old sync account bookmarks and bars into my new sync account ?
I had a sync account on firefox (with bookmarks, modules and bars) last version.
Now that I have updated to 29.0, I cannot use my old sync account on a new computer. I had to create a new account with my email address and it is now empty.
How do I get back my favourites in this new account ?
Thanks.

Itunes keeps turning on 'sync music' to iphone
Everytime I plug my iPhone in to my computer, iTunes will by itself toggle on 'sync music'. When I untoggle it and go back and hand add songs to the phone, it starts a sync process again and low and behold the sync music button is toggled on again! And the songs that I've just added by hand are removed from the phone again.
I recently used the sync to be able to delate some songs that had auto-download to my phone when I upgraded it to iOS7. These songs weren't appearing on the list of music when I hooked my iphone up and I wasn't able to delete them striaght from the phone either. I turned the sync off as soon as I got the songs deleted so I could go back in and add only the small number of songs I wanted to be on my phone.
I'm really at wits end at this point. I'd stop plugging the phone into my computer if I could, but its my only means of charging at the moment. Anyone else have this problem?Hey everyone, I have also been having this problem and have finally found a solution that is not quite what anyone else has posted yet.
I actually haven't seen the "Syncing Music to iphone" since the new ios update so im quite happy..
Here are the steps that I took to solve:
1. Turned off auto lock and password on iphone
2. After connecting iphone on the summary page the only three boxes I have checked are Automatically sync when iphone is connected, sync only checked songs and videos, manually manage music and videos
3. Now, click the On this iPhone tab. In the bottom right there are "setting" and "Autofill". Under "Settings" select replace all items when Autofilling. I also arbitrarily selected "reserve 1.12GB for disk use".
5. Then I clicked "Autofill" and selected Replace Songs.
6. Lastly I pressed "Sync" while I was still on the "On This iPhone" page.
7. I was actually about to leave the computer and then I saw something magical..."Syncing Music".....Holy Sh...!!!
Notes:On the iPhone: WiFi, Bluetooth, Cellular, personal Hotspot and VPN are all disabled. I use PC. I have about 5000 songs. I do not use Match.
Before today I was also having a disc space issue with a large block of "other". I deleted the music data from my iphone and that fixed that problem, however, the phone was still not syncing the majority (4800 of 5000) songs.
I do not pay for icloud storage, I have never restored my iphone
*I also do not have the "Sync Music" box checked under the Music tab, however, simply doing this did not solve the problem -
Turning off sync without loosing music
After a year of managing my own music transfers I made the mistake of using iTunes sync to give my iPod a fresh reload to make sure all my edits to the library were up to date. Now I can’t turn off sync without iTunes threatening to erase everything on the iPod. As a temporary patch I’ve got iTunes set to only sync checked items but it’s really lame to have to trick iTunes into leaving my iPod alone. Anyone know how to turn the feature off without wiping the iPod?
#@!&%$# ... using my "sync on checked" trick wiped everything without warning. I guess I got my wish and I can go back to manually managing the iPod. I HATE iTUNES! It's deliberately crippled in so many ways ...

I want to turn images into a video. I have Adobe Premiere Elements 10 and Photoshop Elements 10, can I do it with them? Thank you.
Curt
Please re-read and consider the Time Lapse Basics blog post details in the context of you creating many many separate still images of your object moving say from left to right (A to B to C to D). Often "hundreds of pictures" are used depending on the scope of the project - your object moving in time.
Each of those still images (representing A, B, C, and D) gets taken (in the A, B, C, D sequence) into a Premiere Elements where you decrease the duration of each still image (from 5 seconds to say 1 second) to get the object's motion effect of moving from A to D.
What format is your comic strip in now? Drawings on a piece of paper? If these are drawings on paper, then you will should take pictures of each of the drawings A, B, C, and D. It is those pictures (jpg, still images) that get taken in sequence into the video editor like Premiere Elements where you decrease the duration of each to achieve the animated effect.
Photoshop Elements Editor, check out the FIle Menu/Save for Web feature where you can create an animated gif. But, here again, if what you have now are drawings, then you will need to find a way to make photographs of them.
There are numerous ways described online for making your comic strip drawings into and animation (video).
Please review them with a Google search to get an overview of what is out there.
After that, we can go over step by step what next based on your starting material and Premiere Elements.
Thanks.

RH10 suddenly won't let me add/import new images into my project
I have tried accessing the "Insert Image" option using the various methods (menu, toolbar icon, right click menu), but once the dialog box is open, I click on the browse folder to find the image that I added via Explorer, but nothing happens and the app freezes. The only thing I am able to do is close RH via the Task Manager. I have tried rebooting and also tried doing this in multiple projects to make sure it's not my main project with the problem. This same thing happens every time.
I CAN add an image that has already been imported into the project... I tried doing that then using Image Properties to bring in the newly created image... same result... freezes the app. My project is only about 50MB in size... and I probably only have 2 or 3 dozen images in it so far.
I am hoping you are not going to say uninstall and re-install because I don't have the disc with me today... working from home.
Help please.TOTAL weirdness... so I just got into work... turned on my laptop... so i'm not working remotely... opened my project... at first i got this error:
then i continued to get a series of errors of various kinds.. finally one telling me the cpd file was corrupt... now mind you... I had to restart RH several times yesterday... also did a reboot... and didn't get any of these errors...I also tried to import an image into an older project to see if it was the project or RH.. but i had the same problem with the other project - no.. didn't try a NEW project as I was planning at your suggestion because it's working in my existing project now.
so i deleted the cpd... opened the project.. and tried to import a new image.. and BAM.. it worked like always! WHAT'S UP WITH THAT?
I don't understand what the problem could have been if this wasn't working even without VPN...
Thoughts? I'd like to avoid this issue next time I'm working from home.. which will be next week! -
Turning profile to "online" on kindle HD
I'm sure this is an easy answer but I just need a little help. I bought and set up a Kindle fire HD for aged parents in the UK while I was visiting before returning to the US. Both my parents used it with no problems while I was there and happily recieved calls from my brother and his infant son in Scotland- some very happy grandparent smiles! I left drawings and written instructions so that my parents can turn on the kindle, get into skype and answer video chat calls from myself or my brother.
Since I have returned to the US my brother has called them, and they can't get the profile I set up for them to go "online", my brother sees them as "offline" so obviously they can't receive calls.
Does anyone know where the button to put their profile online is? Is it in contacts - do they see their own profile and click to say "online"? Or is it in profile?
Please understand that they are old, and technophobes, so I really need step by step that I can talk them through. If anyone can provide a screenshot that would be ideal!
Thanks everyone.

</service>Hi!
I am using Flash Builder 4.6, BlazeDS, and Hibernate. How to store a webcam snapshot into the MySql Database. I stored Form Items by using RemoteObject into the database. But I failed to store webcam snapshot. I captured that image on Panel component.I converted that image to ByteArray. Now I want to save that image into the database. Please help me in this regard.
thanks in advance.
