Two iPhoto Library Names Point to the Same Path

I'm not sure how this happened, but I now have two libraries that point to the exact same path.  One is uppercase and the other is normal.  See pic:
How can I get rid of the uppercase library?

Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
(On 10.7: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
(Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
What's the plist file?
For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

  • Two different WCS instances, pointing to the same database

    Hi,
    for some unknown reason that came from the architecture fellows, I need to install 02 instances of WCS pointing to the same database server. I mean, both instances would need to "share" the database. They don't want a cluster schema because they need to have the option to deploy the app in one instance and, if wverything is ok, deploy to the remaining instance.
    Do you know if such architecture is possible? I did the installation of one instance(instance A), but when trying to install the instance B referring to A's database, I get a ton of errors.
    Any advice is much appreciated.
    Regards,

    Hi,
    This is not the way Sites has been designed. Each instance should have their own schema and repository unless the two instances work as a Sites cluster.
    So what you're trying to achieve is not possible using your approach. What I could suggest is to install two separate instances on its own, create the necessary data model, asset configurations, templates, etc. in one instance and replicate it to the other instance by publishing it to the other instance using real-time publish. If you use LDAP or any other supported directory server you would be able to use a singe directory for both sites instances.

  • How do I move some of my wife's iPhoto library into mine on the same Mac?

    My wife and I are fulltime RVers. She happens to be a much better photographer than I am. I want to move some of her photos (with her permission, of course) from her iPhoto library into my iphoto library to use on our blog. Both libraries are on the same computer though under different use logins. Thanks in advance forr your help.

    Drag the photos to the /Users/Shared/ folder and then into the other library.

  • Sharing iPhoto Library between users on the same Mac

    I recently switched to using iPhoto ('11) instead of Picasa on our iMac.  My wife and use the iMac but with each our own accounts.  When I first set it up, I put the library in our Shared folder on the Mac with the proper permissions, and both of us could access the library without any problems (as long as one of us remembered to quit iPhoto when we were done so the other can access the library).  But now, my wife no longer can open the library.  But not only that -- when launching iPhoto from her account, a warning display pops up saying the library cannot be accessed because it is locked or do not have permission to open.  When you click "OK," iPhoto simply quits.  No option to select a new library or create a new one.
    I have no problems launching iPhoto under my account, and I've double-checked permissions on the Shared folder and the iPhoto library itself (we both have admin rights, anyway).
    Has anyone experienced this scenario?  Any help would be appreciated!
    thanks!
    MG

    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Use the option to check and repair Library permissions.

  • Resizing/stretching without effecting angles of other points in the same path?

    Hi all,
    I am wanting to increase the size of say a round edged box that I just created with the round edge rectangle tool.
    Now when I create the path initially the rounded edges are at perfect 90degree cuts. But say I wanted to increase the size of the path say by doubling its height, how I do that and still maintain the perfect 90degree corners I started with?
    Any help would be great

    The only way I know to do this is to either make the rectangle over or to use the Effect>Convert To Shape>Round Rectangle

  • Can two datasources point to the same database?

    Can two unique datasource names point to the same MS Access Database?

    I got handed a directory of files to set up two coldfusion sites on a new server. What I have is two websites which both have a gallery page with identical contents, see Jembetat.com and SaharaAfricanGallery.com. In the the files I got in the Jembetat directory I have a single database "jembetat.mdb", in SahraAfricanGallery directory I have two databases "jembet.mdb" and "sahara.mdb" The Jembetat site refers to a dsn titled "Jembetat_accesscf_jembetat" pointing to the "jembetat.mdb"  and the sahara site to a dsn titled "sahara20049216_accesscf_jembetat". Interestingly enough I believe all three databases are identical. Currently I am pointing the jembetat dsn to the jembetat database in the sahara directory and the sahara dsn to the sahara database in the sahara directory. In my mind however if the client makes a change on one website then he would have to manually change it on the other unless I point poth dsn to the same directory.

  • Mail for MAC - Unable to handle 2 accounts pointing to the same server

    Hi,
    I have two accounts on MAIL pointing to the same server.
    I am unable to send/receive mails from one of them, since they both point to the same SMTP server.
    Is this a restriction on MAIL for MAC?
    How does one over come this.
    I'd written to Apple support and even made an update suggestion.
    But obviously they dont care. It''s been over 8 months since I wrote.
    And I am seriously going MAD with this problem!
    I've even switched 3 ISP.
    Please help.
    Rayne Man

    Hi BobTheFisherman,
    Thanks for responding.
    So while I understand how mails work on mail servers with UID's and PWD's ...Here's the deal.
    When setting up an account, MAIL asks for the SMTP profile setting, (which includes the SMTP mail server). It then creates the SMTP profile.
    So if I have two accounts, I set up account 1 with the mail.xxx.com as mail server.
    While setting up the second account, I again use mail.xxx.com (as the SMTP server)
    So when if I have set up account 1 as the first account with the SMTP server ... while sending mail from the second account, it takes the the settings of account 1, and then the mail reply comes to account 1 instead of account two.
    Does this explain my problem?
    Do let me know, cause I reall need an solution.
    Thanks again.

  • The same itunes Library and playlists on the same computer with two systems

    I want to have the same itunes library and playlists on the same computer with the two different Os 10.3.9 and 10.4.9 each one on the different disk. without copy this in the itunes folder (because my library its 30Gb)
    I have the same user name on the Os. I use the same version of itunes in both systems
    I use my ipod to play the library but its not the best solution (i lost my library in ipod twice because I confused from what os was synchronized)

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions. 
    Amalgamate the two iTunes libraries. Then load iTunes and hold down the Option/Alt ⌥ key and then choose "Choose Library" and then point both copies of iTunes to use the combined iTunes library.

  • Two folders pointing to the same document

    Hi,
    can two KM folders point to the same document?
    for e.g.
    say I have two users 1) a business person 2) a technical person.
    I have two folder structures 1) a technical structure 2) a business structure with each having access to the all the folders structures.
    say tech folder structure has a folder called ep and business folder structure has a folder called client1. The technical person uploads a document of client1 project that is related to ep in the ep folder that is part of the technical strucure.
    How do I make it possible to access the document in both the folders(ep and client1)? I don't want redundant documents as it can cause the changes not to get reflected.

    Hi,
      You can do that using taxonomies. You upload the document, assign metadata and then by mean TREX index is classified.
      You create KM Navigation Iviews to point these taxonomies folders.
      You can read about taxonomies:  http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/6c/5145b1d1de11d6b2cc00508b6b8b11/frameset.htm

  • Two 9IAS pointing to the same orgin database !!

    Hello Guys,
    I need to setup such way that
    two 9IAS machines will be pointing to
    the same origin machine (i.e third m/c) !!!
    By doubt is what are products we need to install in the second machine !!!
    Let us say in the first machine, I install the following products
    Oracle9ias database cache
    oracle 9ias forms and reports services
    oracle http server in non-ssl mode
    oracle 9ias web cache
    oracle 9ias portal
    oracle 9ias discoverer
    oracle management server
    Let me guess, what should be install in second machine
    Oracle9ias database cache - yes
    oracle 9ias forms and reports services - yes
    oracle http server in non-ssl mode - yes
    oracle 9ias web cache - yes
    oracle 9ias portal - no
    oracle 9ias discoverer - yes
    oracle management server - yes
    Please let me know whether my jugement is right or not !!!
    I am only scared whether the original products(i.e first machine) will
    get updated !!!
    Thanks for your time !!!

    kishore, I don't see any problem installing iAS on two different machines, if that's what you mean. Whatever you install on the 'second' machine will not affect the first. Since they have the different oraInventory location.

  • Adjusting two handles of an anchor point at the same time?

    Hi,
    Is it possible to adjust two handles of an anchor point at the same time?
    I want to edit the top shape of this egg shape so that it would be symmetrical on both sides when I do adjust it.
    What is the easiest way to accomplish this?
    Thanks!

    When I move the right handle, I need the left handle to move the opposite way and it doesn't. I don't get what you mean by saying that it "should behave just like you want them already."

  • HT5037 installed the iPhoto library upgraded and still getting same error.

    i've downloaded and installed the iPhoto library upgrader, clicking on iPhoto app and still getting the same pop up message, "install iPhoto upgrader"

    You need to go to the Applications/Utilities folder, double clic, on the iPhoto library upgrader to launch and run it on your library.  Then launch your iPhoto application to open the library.

  • Two QM servers point to the same UCCX Cluster

    All,
    We have a QM8.0 in production pointing to a UCCX 8.5/CUCM8.5. It does Audio recording only using network recording method and it has a SQL 2008 server installed locally.
    We are installing a second QM8.5 system after ordering extra AQM seat license. We use the second QM system for screen and audio recording (using desktop record). Instead of using locally installed SQL, we plan to use SQL 2008 Cluster at the backend SQL farm.
    Both QM systems point to the same UCCX/CUCM Cluster. The initial configuration of the second QM system was successful. SQMDB was created in SQL Cluster (the instance created for QM). QM could see all licenses (QM and AQM) loaded in UCCX system. However, using QM Administrator utility to configure users/teams, I cannot see any UCCX agents and teams. When do a synchronise, got error:
    QMAD2003: SyncServerError: SyncFailure: SyncFailed: com.calabrio.sync.engine.dataSyncException: Exception while getting DB connection (-1)
    Has anyone experience this type of problem? Is there a limit that one UCCX cluster could only have one QM system associated?
    Thanks,
    Wenqian

    This problem has been fixed. In QM log (sync.dbg), it clearly stated that the password for uccxworkforce was wrong. After changed it to the right password, all works well.
    I thought I could see the seat license from UCCX server indicating that I entered correct password in my initial configuration. It is not the case.

  • Two feed IDs pointing to the same URL by accident.

    I think I have quite a conundrum here. I manage 2 podcasts, and one of them I had to change hosts. I used the <itunes: new-feed-url> tag which worked great. But unfortunately, I also added it to the second feed XML by accident, and now both feeds point to the same URL. So now if I change one, it will change both again. I contacted normal apple support, but they said its beyond them. I also went to our podcast page on the itunes store and "reported a concerne", but to no avail.
    Does anyone have an idea how to contact itunes techs and have them manually change the url of the mistaken feed?
    Thanks.

    Go to:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/podcast/
    and use the 'Contact us' link at the bottom of the page. It does indeed sound as if you have got yourself into a Catch-22 that only they can get you out of.
