Unable to view and use iphotos within imovie or idvd

I recently upgraded to iLife '06 and I would like to view and use my iphotos from within imovie. But for some reason I cannot. When I click on the media button, I can bring in any of my iTunes music. But when I click on the photos button, nothing, except for a message to launch iphoto2 or later appears. the Show Photo Settings button is present, but nothing happens when I click. I do keep my photo library on a second hard drive, not the one which stores the applications. I've rebuilt the database several times. any suggestions are appreciated. -ab

I discovered the root of the problem was an " & " used in the file name of my iPhoto library. That is evidently a no-no. After I renemed the library and restarted, all was working fine. -ab

  • The PDF file and slideshow view corrupted using iPhoto. Macbook air only get corrupted slideshow and Mac Mini both slideshow and PDF file is corrupted.

    The PDF file and slideshow view corrupted using iPhoto. Macbook air only get corrupted slideshow and Mac Mini both slideshow and PDF file is corrupted.

    Saving as a PDF file for some users have been a problem.  If you boot into  Safe Mode and run iPhoto you can create undamaged PDF files.  We don't know why the problem but this is a workaround.
    This problem prevents many from ordering books, calendars and cards since iPhoto creates PDF file of them for uploading and printing.  Booting into Safe Mode lets them successfully order those items.

  • Unable to view and access files

    Since updating to Yosemite on my MacBook Pro (early 2011), I have been unable to view and access files on my time capsule. I can still access my backups through Time Machine, but not able to view or access the files that I saved onto the device (by method of copy and paste from my laptop hard drive to the TM). Before the "upgrade" to Yosemite I used to open Time Machine, close it, and then the icon of the TM (just like a typical external hard drive) would show up on the desktop. I would double click and open the TM icon and be able to view all the files that I saved onto the hard drive of the TM, as well as a folder that said "Time Machine Backups." Now, all I see now is my MacBrook Pro Icon and a folder named "File Server." and when I double click on either icon there is nothing to view. Please help!

    Try this..
    Reset the TC to factory and redo the setup.. I strongly recommend the following setup.
    Factory reset universal
    Power off the TC.. ie pull the power cord or power off at the wall.. wait 10sec.. hold in the reset button.. be gentle.. power on again still holding in reset.. and keep holding it in for another 10sec. You may need some help as it is hard to both hold in reset and apply power. It will show success by rapidly blinking the front led. Release the reset.. and wait a couple of min for the TC to reset and come back with factory settings. If the front LED doesn’t blink rapidly you missed it and simply try again. The reset is fairly fragile in these.. press it so you feel it just click and no more.. I have seen people bend the lever or even break it. I use a toothpick as tool.
    N.B. None of your files on the hard disk of the TC are deleted.. this simply clears out the router settings of the TC.
    Setup the TC again.
    ie Start from a factory reset. No files are lost on the hard disk doing this.
    Then redo the setup from the computer with Yosemite.
    1. Use very short names.. NOT APPLE RECOMMENDED names. No spaces and pure alphanumerics.
    eg TCgen5 and TCwifi for basestation and wireless respectively.
    Even better if the issue is more wireless use TC24ghz and TC5ghz with fixed channels as this also seems to help stop the nonsense. But this can be tried in the second round.
    2. Use all passwords that also comply but can be a bit longer. ie 8-20 characters mixed case and numbers.. no non-alphanumerics.
    3. Ensure the TC always takes the same IP address.. you will need to do this on the main router using dhcp reservation.. or a bit more complex setup using static IP in the TC. But this is important.. having IP drift all over the place when Yosemite cannot remember its own name for 5 min after a reboot makes for poor networking. If the TC is main router it will not be an issue.
    4. Check your share name on the computer is not changing.. make sure it also complies with the above.. short no spaces and pure alphanumeric.. but this change will mess up your TM backup.. so be prepared to do a new full backup. Sorry.. keep this one for second round if you want to avoid a new backup.
    5. Mount the TC disk in the computer manually.
    In Finder, Go, Connect to server from the top menu,
    Type in SMB://192.168.0.254 (or whatever the TC ip is which you have now made static. As a router by default it is 10.0.1.1 and I encourage people to stick with that unless you know what you are doing).
    You can use name.. SMB://TCgen5.local where you replace TCgen5 with your TC name.. local is the default domain of the TC and doesn't change.
    However names are not so easy as IP address.. nor as reliable. At least not in Yosemite they aren't. The domain can also be an issue if you are not plugged or wireless directly to the TC.
    6. Make sure IPv6 is set to link-local only in the computer. For example wireless open the network preferences, wireless and advanced / TCP/IP.. and fix the IPv6. to link-local only. If you use ethernet also do it for ethernet.. this is important.
    You can see the summary of the same thing from apple here.
    OS X Yosemite: Connect to shared computers and file servers on a network
    I have given somewhat more specific instructions which I believe are important.
    With the TC manually mounted can you access the files??
    If not please tell me and I will continue to think how to change permissions.
    But please if you can at least open a directory and tell me what the permissions are currently set to.
    eg. This is a directory on my TC.

    I see now that you can do that.  Too bad you can't do the same with messages...one at a time.
    I'd rather have a "delete all" in messages and VVM if I had a choice.  Those tend to pile up and before you know it, you have a hundred to delete!

  • Creation of view and use it as internal table

    dear community,
                   My questions is taht i am write a select quary in that data is very huge so that it cant inserted in to internal table(memory size of internal table) so i thing that i create aview same as data base table and when write the select quary use packsize and transfer recoerd ds in that view and use this view in my program
    is above logic can work or not
    also is size of view is greater than internal table memory size.

    Writing the large volume to another table(which a view is just a view of a table or group of tables) is not going to solve the problem.  You still have to select the data from the view(or table).  Like I said in your other threads, you need to read by package size, and do something with that subset, whether it is summaring, or writeing to another system via RFC.

  • I have recently transferred data from my old Mac to my new one. The result was good, but I have 2 users now, whose data I want to merge into 1 single user, so to avoid having to switch from one user to the other to view and use certain files. How to do it

    I have recently transferred data from my old Mac to my new one. The result was good, but I have 2 users now, whose data I want to merge into 1 single user, so to avoid having to switch from one user to the other to view and use certain files. How to do it?

    Here's an easy way:
    Pick the user that you want to eliminate (making sure that the remaining user has administrator privileges) and move all of the data that you want to keep into the Shared folder. Reboot or log out and login to the user you want to keep. Copy all the data from the Shared folder into your account - placing it neatly in folders (Documents, Music, Movies, etc.).
    Once the data is moved, log into the account you want to delete just once more to make certain that you've grabbed all the data you want to keep. Log out and log back into your admin account and go to System Preferences>Users & Groups and delete the 'old' user.
    That should do it.

  • The buttons in main the vi get locked after opening a vi reference in a subpanel and using buttons within the subpanel.

    I am trying to open a reference to a vi in the subpanel of the main vi. However after the vi opens in the subpanel and after pressing a few buttons in the subpanel the buttons in the main vi get locked, i.e. I can't even close the main vi or control anything else. Is there any way how I can avoid this happening?

    This is most likely happening because in either the top or sub panel,
    there is an event structure that is queuing events, and is set to lock
    the panel until the events are handled, and because of the logic in the
    diagram, the events aren't being pulled from the queue.
    So, you have a deadlock. You are waiting
    on the panel. The panel is
    waiting on the diagram. And the diagram is waiting on something else.
    So, if there are indeed event structures involved, determine where in
    the diagram things are delaying. Also, if you do not need the panel to
    lock until the event is handled, you can change the setting in the
    events dialog on the structure. But the events will still be queued
    until the diagram starts executing.

  • Unable to view my purchased moves within my Mac

    I am unable to view my purchased movies within my macbook pro laptop iTunes.  Yet, I am see them on my desktop's iTunes; what am I doing wrong here?  My iTunes on my laptop shows that I am signed on so there everything should be seamless? Please help!

    Here's the two things I can think of to check:
    Go to "iTunes" in the Menu bar at the top of the screen > Preferences > Store > Make sure that "Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases" is checked.
    Go to "View" in the Menu bar at the top of the screen > Click "Show Movies in the Cloud" if that's an option (If it's already checked then the only option will be to Hide them).

    Hi
    I am also unable to access the Inbrowser editing page now for 3 days. It won't open up, either in my clients site https://inbrowserediting.adobe.com/login/www.edc.org.za or another client also: https://inbrowserediting.adobe.com/login/www.calgan.co.za or just as plain https://inbrowserediting.adobe.com
    I have tried it in 3 different browsers: Firefox, Chrome and Safari and it won't open up the site.
    This is becoming a big problem for me as clients need to update remotely.
    I used to be able to access these sites a few weeks ago and have not changed anything since. I don't have any special characters in the password and my IP is not being blocked. I am able to connect with FTP with Muse and with Dreamweaver. The sites are enabled for Inbrowser Editing under properties.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Can't use iPhoto in iMovie

    When I drag a still image from my iPhoto library it shows up in the project library broswer.
    It's automatically assigned the standard display time of 4 secs.
    But it won't display in the playback area when you play or drag the cursor timeline over it.
    The images (and I have tried many) are standad jpegs etc.
    When I selct an image it displays correctly in the window above the iPhoto library.
    I've also tried dragging jpegs from the desktop as well / That doesn't work either.
    I've created a movie with just a couple of still images (no transitions) and that doesn't work.
    I tried a video clip / still image / video clip. All that does is play the the first frame of the video as a still, then it actually plays the video and then it plays the last clip of the video as a still as the cursor travels across my actual still image.
    I'm completely up to date on all updates for iLife 11
    Any ideas?

    Hi
    Please tell: What fixes did You try - that didn't work - so we can omit them.
    A. Corrupted iMovie pref file - very common problem
    - Trash all iMovie pref files (or rather to test this - start a new User Account / Log into this - if iMovie now works OK then the problem most likely is here)
    B. Correpted iMovie movie project - the other project's run's well
    C. iPhoto - Corrupted iPhoto Library
    - THIS TAKES SEVERAL HOUR TO MEND and
    - YOU need lot's of free space on Your Start-Up (Macintosh HD) Hard Disk - else it might crash !
    To me it takes about 24 hours - AND I CAN NOT use the Mac during this time (just to prevent it from HANGING and destroying more than can be fixed)
    Start iPhoto - BUT KEEP option-key AND cmd-key down during all up-start.
    Now You got a list to select from - SELECT ALL
    IF a Lap-top - CONNECT Power-Mains - Battery will not last !
    Do something else for lot's of hours.
    When its done - Close iPhoto
    Open iMovie and see if it now works OK
    Good Luck !

  • HT2476 Can I still use iPHOTO 6/iMovie 6/Appleworks with Mountain Lion?

    My partners and clients require those formats and are unlikely to upgrade to anything that does not run them., which is why we have not moved to Lion.

    I don't know about iPhoto 6 - but would assume no.
    Appleworks is a PPC app and will neither install nor run. I maintain an external partition with a full bootable clone of Snow Leopard for the occasional use of Appleworks.
    As for  iMovie HD 6: not sure if you can install it (if the installer is PPC, then you can't). I am actually running iMovie HD 6.04 which was a .dmg made available for free download by Apple for unhappy iMovie 8 buyers. I use it because I prefer it over later versions (which I have). The caveat: you must install iMovie 8 first, otherwise the .dmg of 6.04 will not install. Since 6.04 is sort of an update, I don't know if the original version 6 would install or not. The only way to know is to hear from someone who has done that or try it yourself.
    FWIW, I have used the iMovie HD 6.04 in both Lion and Mountain Lion. It will occasionally quit/crash during launch, but will usually behave itself once launched again.
    So, the best way to try it would be to create a bootable clone of your system on an external drive with CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper (and, if that includes iMovie 6, then it's already installed), and then purchase/install Mountain Lion either on your internal or external. You can try it and if you don't like it, simply wipe the drive and clone back your system.
