Tutorial book for iLife 08

I just purchased iLife 08 and wonder if there is an interactive guide published for this version? I found Jim Heid's book "The Macintosh iLife '05" guide very helpful as well as Michael Rubin's "iLife '06' tutorial. I know there are some downloadable tutorials available on the Apple web site. Thanks for your input.

I think you're going to need to wait a few days... it's only been out a week.

  • Good tutorial book for non-flash developer?

    I need to learn flex for our company. I am a .NET developer
    although I have used Flex 1.0 before and was doing well with it. I
    am by no means a flash developer, so I'm looking for a good
    beginner to intermediate book for someone who is looking more at
    flex application development rather than design.
    I need a book that focuses more on database/XML/webservice
    integration and not something that focuses SOLEY on rich GUI's.
    Yes, I would like for the book to focus also on design, but not
    have that purely be the focus.
    What do you all recommend? Thanks!
    Ryan

    I found the book Adobe Fex 2 Training from the Source VERY
    helpful. I read and did everything and am also finding it useful as
    a reference. One reason I liked it is that it takes you through an
    appliation step by step refining the application over time as you
    "discover" more succinct/efficient ways to do things (e.g. making
    components and a more reusable design). It takes you through
    multiple ways to get at server stuff too. I also highly recommend
    reading the Cairngorm articles posted on Adobe's website to help
    you get off on the right foot using good design principles for
    Flex.
    P.S. I am very much a newbie myself and am still climbing the
    learning curve.

  • What is the best Premiere CS6 reference/tutorial book for an experienced editor?

    Greetings all. I am a working professional editor here in Los Angeles, doing mostly short-form promos, trailers. and web videos. I have years of experience with both Avid and Final Cut Pro, and switch back and forth between them from job to job.
    Lately I've noticed that more and more jobs are popping up that want you to know Premiere, and I'd like to teach myself. When I learned Final Cut I bought an excellent book called, "Final Cut Pro for Avid Editors" by Diana Weynand. Does anyone know if there's something similar for Premiere?
    But failing that, a good general reference with advanced tutorials would be good! My preference is to have an actual book (as opposed to videos) so that I can leaf back through it to look something up. In the last few months I taught myself After Effects using the book, "After Effects Apprentice" by Trish and Chris Meyer. That was a great book, and I'd love to find something similar for Premiere.
    Do you folks recommend the "Classroom in a Book" item, or is there something else better out there.
        Any advice welcome!

    Hi Dennis,

  • I had ordered a photo book print two years back. I want to reorder the same book again now. However, I have lost the album project in iphoto. Is there any way to see my print order history and reorder the same book for print ?

    I had ordered a photo book print two years back. I want to reorder the same book again now. However, I have lost the album project/photos from iphoto.
    Is there any way to see my print order history and reorder the same book for print ?

    No.  Apple only keeps the pdf file for a book for 30 days.  Without the library and book project you won't be able to reorder the same book.
    Even though the horse is out of the barn the following tutorial might be of help for future books, i.e. create a new library for each book): iP08 - Archiving an iPhoto Book for Editing and/or Ordering at a Later Date

  • Where do I get MPN for iLife that came with my computer?

    I purchased a MacBook about a year ago. I just now have occasion to use iPhoto. I'd like to register it in case there are updates. When I attempt to do so I am asked for the "market product number" [MPN]. The methods explained for locating the MPN on Apple's website -- e.g., opening the Apple System Profiler -- do not work for me.
    How can I locate the MPN? Alternatively, do I need to register my copy of iLife? It's iLife 08 and was purchased late December of 08.
    Thanks,
    Eric Weir

    Eric:
    iPhoto is only available with the iLife suite of iApps, not by itself. As for iLife 10 no one knows what the schedule is. In the past it had been released at the time of the MacWorld Expo. Since Apple is not participating in the Expo any more we don't know if there will be a scheduled release or not.
    Since the Expo is only a few weeks away I would at least wait until it's over before ordering iLife 09 if you are interested in ordering 09. Otherwise, start using 08 and get familiar with it. Then compare the differences between 08 and 09 to see if it's worth it for you to upgrade.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) 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 created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), 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. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

  • Best books for a beginner.

    I am in a Java class right now, and the material as it has been presented has been very confusing. I really want to get a good understanding of Java, my question is: What are the best books for someone that is starting to learn Java? I was looking through different reviews of Java books, and Just Java 2 by Peter van der Linden sounds good, but I want the book to explain Java in the simplest form as possible.
    If I could get some more recommendations I would appreciate it.
    Thanks.

    Head First Java is wonderful, but I wouldn't use that book on its own. It's a lot of theory, but very few examples and no programming exercises. Some books tell you how to do something, but they don't tell you why it works, so you end up unable to program anything that isn't exactly like what they showed you. Head First Java really gets into the why and it's great for making you think like a programmer, especially if the object-oriented thinking isn't coming naturally. But you need a book that has more of a tutorial format in addition to Head First.

  • Photoshop Elements 7 tutorial book recommendation

    Hi - I'm looking for a recommendation for a practical, how-to book for Photoshop Elements 7.  I am new to the software and have purchased a book which is pretty good but it's still too much like a technical manual.  Two books by Avi Muchnick, "When Pancakes Go Bad: Optical Delusions with Adobe Photoshop" and "I've Got a Human in My Throat:  MORE Optical Delusions with Adobe Photoshop" teach how to use the software in a practical fashion using fun projects - not just telling me what each function does as most technical manuals do.  The sample images are also included so that the user can work along with the book making it a truly a hands-on experience which is what I want.  I'm told that most of what is in these books applies to PE7.  I have two questions:
    1.  If anyone has used either of these books, how well did you think they related to PE7?
    2.  What other book would someone recommend as a good hands-on PE7 tutorial?  I do not have a very fast internet connection so, for now, I would prefer to learn using a book with software if possible.  However, I know there is a wealth of good on-line tutorials out there so any recommendations for those would also be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    I have used "How to Cheat in Photoshop Elements 7" and found it interesting.
    But you can find lot of stuff online specific to your requirement.... Usually I prefer to read PSE blogs or online tutorials whenever I have any specific requirement in terms of Editing....

  • Is there a Classroom-In-a Book for SB CS4?

    Aloha Friends,
    I just purchased Creative Suite CS4 sometime ago and I've been having a great time learning each one of the programs. I've purchased the CS4 Classroom in a Book for many of them, but I can't find one for SB CS4.  I see there is a SB CS3 Classroom in a Book.  Would that edition suffice with even the content in the dvd that comes with the book?
    Thanks for any help.

    I too used to be a book person for software training. In the last year I have begun using video tutorials. So much easier to carry around with me! I started with lynda and later cancelled and moved over to www.designprovideo.com and macprovideo too.
    I decided to buy the Soundbooth tutorial because with the high def download I keep it for life and it plays in this special player that has instant "mac esq Spotlight" search features. It's like an index for a book but better. You type in a word or part of a word and the player shows you any individual videos (from all tutorials) related to your search!
    Another reason I bought it instead of streaming it is I have transfered it to my iPhone yesterday. So I was watching parts of the tutorial on the way back from a meeting with a client. No net access needed. Way cool! Sure, there is the screen size limitation - but It suprised me how much I could get from the tutorial by listening and following the action on the screen.
    Still, I will miss books when they eventually are replaced by ebooks and videos.

  • Looking for recommendations on training books for PS CS3

    I'm not complete newbie to Photoshop, but I know there is so much more I could get out of it.... so I'm looking for a good tutorial book. One that isn't going to cost me an arm & a leg.
    Thanks!

    Michael,
    No book will have solutions to all problems. Even the Web will come up short sometimes. That's what this forum is about.
    I'd start with the manual, then spend some time with the Help files (F1). Yeah, the manual doesn't read like Faulkner, but it's not bad and has the solution to many, many problems. It does rely too heavily, nowadays, on "(see Help files)," but ink and paper have gotten more expensive.
    Next, as someone else suggested, "Classroom in a Book," and work through it all, even the stuff you think you'll never need. You will pick up other knowledge, as you do those exercises.
    At that point, decide what you want to do with Photoshop. That will narrow your book/training down to specific areas, like "Photoshop for Photographers," "Photoshop for Video," etc.
    If you hit a problem, that you cannot solve with the manual, F1, "CiaB," Google and a search of this forum, please post your specific question.

  • The best reference book for Dreamweaver CS6

    Hello all:
    I'm teaching myself Dreamweaver CS6 through videos.  I haven't worked on Dreamweaver for many, many years.  The version I learned was Macramedia Dreamweaver 4 - so that tells you how long it's been!
    Please, could any of you all recommend a good referance guide.  Not a tutorial book.  Just something I can refer to when I get stuck.
    Thanks if you can help! 

    Unfortunately, there's no simple answer to this. CS6 Perpetual License is different from CS6 Creative Cloud.   New feature enhancements are being added to the Cloud software on a regular basis.  Whereas Perpetual License users do not get these major upgrades until they actually upgrade to CS7.
    Whichever product you use, learn all you can about modern HTML and CSS first.  This is required knowledge & it will make learning to work with DW much easier.

  • Oracle books for apex ?

    hi all ,
    does not oracle offer books for learning apex ?
    if i had a course in oracle , will not she give me a book to learn from it !!
    i do not find books regarding apex in the market except some of some writers
    books like
    beggining oracle application express
    and
    pro application express
    and 2 day + developers guide on apex documentation
    and they are not enough at all
    is there another resources ?
    thanks in advance

    Well, all the books and tutorials start from beginer level and go to some advanced levels.
    Just like you cannot learn to swim without getting into water, you cannot learn Apex without dabbling in it ;-)
    Get yourself an installation of Apex and start off with that and a book / tutorial/ Help (which is also pretty good).
    No text books, the likes of Haliday & Resnick Part 1 & 2 for Physics or G.B. Thomas for Calculus / Coordinate Geometry in real world !
