Using iPhoto '06 & '08 in unison - 3rd party software

Hey guys,
Sorry about the other posts I mistakenly made. Here is my situation. I recently purchased and installed iLife '08. After doing this I tried to run Still Life 2.3.4 This is a program that allows you to zoom and pan across photos exactly the way you want for slideshows in iMovie HD. When I tried to run this program and open an old project I was working on, it said that it couldn't find the "rolls" in the iPhoto library where I had my pictures stored. The next thing that I tried was to re-import all of these photos from iPhoto '08. But Still Life does not even recognize the new library that iPhoto '08 uses. My question is, is there a way to use both iPhoto '08 and '06 at the same time? Or is there a way for me to revert back to iPhoto '06 while still keeping the other applications from iLife '08? Please give any advice. Thanks!

Yes, you can use both versions. You will need to create two libraries, one V7 and the other V6. When you launch either version you should do so with the Option key depressed so that you'll get the window to let you choose which library to open. If you try opening either library with the wrong application you can either damage the library or covert it to V7 and you'll loose your V6 library and will have to start over again. So always launch either iPhoto with the Option key depressed
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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 written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Issues with Form printing using a 3rd party software!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

    Hi All,
    We are printing our month end AR statements using Xerox DP100 printers. We are using a SAP Script as the layout form. Everything works perfectly alright when a direct print is issued to the printer. But the scenario here is the statements are sent to a 3rd party software so that the statements can be saved in their repository and made available to be viewed and printed whenever necessary. Now the issue is when this 3rd Party Software(TPS) reads the SAP generated PCL from its report store on the unix host and generates a PDF File that it presents to the web client user for (re)printing via his/her PC it appears that the TPS or Websphere or Adobe is performing a font substituion - replacing the Univers font(used in R/3) which is not loaded on the unix host with a different font(with different sizing and/or behavior).
    As a result the horizontal and vertical positioning generated by SAP(which is correct for the Univers font) is 'wrong' for the substituted font. The fixed size fields print OK but gradually move to the right. The varying size amount columns do not align correctly and fall off the right side of the page.
    Can anyone give me pointers on what can be done to arrest this error.
    Does the font need to be loaded on the unix host or the font used in the form be changed?
    Regards,
    Karthik

    Karthik,
              Sap script behaves differently for different printers. You will have to change margins when you change your printer/software accordingly.

  • Can I use a USB camera with the 3rd party USB camera software and share screens?

    I want to do more than just use a USB camera w/iChat (or ichatusb).  I also need to be able to initiate screen sharing between two computers.  Specifically, I will use iChat with an insight built in camera on my end, and the other person will be using an iMac G5 PPC using a USB camera and the 3rd party USB software for USB ichat support.
    My question then is am I able to request screen sharing (taking over their screen) from my ichat/fw combo to their ichatusb/usb combo?
    thanks
    dc

    Hi,
    The Cameras don't come into this at all.  (But iChat and OS versions do)
    Each end needs iChat 4 or higher.
    Go to the Video menu and Enable Screen Sharing (Selecting toggles a tick On and Off (Tick Present is ON) )
    Highlight Buddy in list and use the Screen Sharing icon at the bottom of the list (interlinked rectangles).
    The G5 could be on Leopard (iChat 4) and be using a  USB 1.1 camera that would need iUSBCam (formerly iChatUSBCam) as well as the Camera manufacturers Software.
    iChat 3 (In Tiger OS 10.4.x) on the G5 with a USB 1.1 camera, Software and iUSBCam may well offer a Screen Sharing option (Or rather Desktop as Video Feed) in the iChat > Video Menu  and that will not work
    However if the G5 has USB 2.0 ports (not the Keyboard additional ports) then if it is up to OS 10.4.9 it can use a UVC Camera for Video Chats  (UVC = USB Video Class No need for Additional Drivers) but Screen Sharing will still be an issue due to the iChat version.
    IF the G5 is still on OS 10.4.x then you will have to use a third Party VNC app at both ends (And run a iChat Audio Chat along side)

  • Would it be possible for time machine to back-up files from 3rd party software such as windows platform using parallel?

    I'm wondering if it would be possible for time machine to back-up files from 3rd party software such as Windows XP using parallel software especially if it is isolated from mac?  Any advise would be greatly aprreciated.

    Short answer - yes Time Machine will backup everything within the Mac OS system.
    Longer answer - Parallels creates a pvm disk image "Parallels Virtual Machine" which Time Machine backs up.
    Due to the changes to the pvm file Time Machine is unable to read the minor changes and will somtimes do a full backup of it each time Time Machine runs and can chew through Back up drive space quite quickly.

    There isn't much 3rd party software can do in the way of parental controls on the iPhone due to the way apps are sandboxed.

  • Using stock apple apps, instead 3rd party software

    I was wondering what would be the best option for cleaning application cache, memory and doing regular computer maintenance, without installing 3rd party software, or if there is any?

    How to maintain a Mac
    1. Make redundant backups, keeping at least one off site at all times. One backup is not enough. Don’t back up your backups; all should be made directly from the original data. Don’t rely completely on any single backup method, such as Time Machine. If you get an indication that a backup has failed, don't ignore it.
    2. Keep your software up to date. In the App Store or Software Update preference pane (depending on the OS version), you can configure automatic notifications of updates to OS X and other Mac App Store products. Some third-party applications from other sources have a similar feature, if you don’t mind letting them phone home. Otherwise you have to check yourself on a regular basis.
    Keeping up to date is especially important for complex software that modifies the operating system, such as device drivers. Before installing any Apple update, you must check that all such modifications that you use are compatible. Incompatibility with third-party software is by far the most common cause of trouble with system updates.
    3. Don't install crapware, such as “themes,” "haxies," “add-ons,” “toolbars,” “enhancers," “optimizers,” “accelerators,” "boosters," “extenders,” “cleaners,” "doctors," "tune-ups," “defragmenters,” “firewalls,” "barriers," “guardians,” “defenders,” “protectors,” most “plugins,” commercial "virus scanners,” "disk tools," or "utilities." With very few exceptions, such stuff is useless or worse than useless. Above all, avoid any software that purports to change the look and feel of the user interface.
    It's not much of an exaggeration to say that the whole "utility" software industry for the Mac is a fraud on consumers. The most extreme examples are the "CleanMyMac" and “MacKeeper” scams, but there are many others.
    As a rule, the only software you should install is that which directly enables you to do the things you use a computer for, and doesn't change the way other software works.
    Safari extensions, and perhaps the equivalent for other web browsers, are a partial exception to the above rule. Most are safe, and they're easy to get rid of if they don't work. Some may cause the browser to crash or otherwise malfunction.  Some are malicious. Use with caution, and install only well-known extensions from relatively trustworthy sources, such as the Safari Extensions Gallery.
    Never install any third-party software unless you know how to uninstall it. Otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve. Do not rely on "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software.
    4. Don't install bad, conflicting, or unnecessary fonts. Whenever you install new fonts, use the validation feature of the built-in Font Book application to make sure the fonts aren't defective and don't conflict with each other or with others that you already have. See the built-in help and this support article for instructions. Deactivate or remove fonts that you don't really need to speed up application launching.
    5. Avoid malware. Malware is malicious software that circulates on the Internet. This kind of attack on OS X was once so rare that it was hardly a concern, but malware is now increasingly common, and increasingly dangerous.
    There is some built-in protection against downloading malware, but you can’t rely on it — the attackers are always at least one day ahead of the defense. You can’t rely on third-party protection either. What you can rely on is common-sense awareness — not paranoia, which only makes you more vulnerable.
    Never install software from an untrustworthy or unknown source. If in doubt, do some research. Any website that prompts you to install a “codec” or “plugin” that comes from the same site, or an unknown site, is untrustworthy. Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must come directly from the developer's website. No intermediary is acceptable, and don’t trust links unless you know how to parse them. Any file that is automatically downloaded from the web, without your having requested it, should go straight into the Trash. A web page that tells you that your computer has a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with it, is a scam.
    In OS X 10.7.5 or later, downloaded applications and Installer packages that have not been digitally signed by a developer registered with Apple are blocked from loading by default. The block can be overridden, but think carefully before you do so.
    Because of recurring security issues in Java, it’s best to disable it in your web browsers, if it’s installed. Few websites have Java content nowadays, so you won’t be missing much. This action is mandatory if you’re running any version of OS X older than 10.6.8 with the latest Java update. Note: Java has nothing to do with JavaScript, despite the similar names. Don't install Java unless you're sure you need it. Most people don't.
    6. Don't fill up your boot volume. A common mistake is adding more and more large files to your home folder until you start to get warnings that you're out of space, which may be followed in short order by a boot failure. This is more prone to happen on the newer Macs that come with an internal SSD instead of the traditional hard drive. The drive can be very nearly full before you become aware of the problem.
    While it's not true that you should or must keep any particular percentage of space free, you should monitor your storage use and make sure you're not in immediate danger of using it up. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of free space on the startup volume for normal operation.
    If storage space is running low, use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the most space. Move seldom-used large files to secondary storage.
    7. Relax, don’t do it. Besides the above, no routine maintenance is necessary or beneficial for the vast majority of users; specifically not “cleaning caches,” “zapping the PRAM,” "resetting the SMC," “rebuilding the directory,” "defragmenting the drive," “running periodic scripts,” “dumping logs,” "deleting temp files," “scanning for viruses,” "purging memory," "checking for bad blocks," "testing the hardware," or “repairing permissions.” Such measures are either completely pointless or are useful only for solving problems, not for prevention.
    To use a Mac effectively, you have to free yourself from the Windows mindset that every computer needs regular downtime maintenance such as "defragging" and "registry cleaning." Those concepts do not apply to the Mac platform. A computing device should not be a focus of your attention. It should be an almost invisible tool by means of which you communicate, work, and play. If you want a machine that is always whining for your attention like a neurotic dog, use a PC.
    The very height of futility is running an expensive third-party application called “Disk Warrior” when nothing is wrong, or even when something is wrong and you have backups, which you must have. Disk Warrior is a data-salvage tool, not a maintenance tool, and you will never need it if your backups are adequate. Don’t waste money on it or anything like it.

  • Automator - Loop through a text file and process data through a 3rd party software

    Just stumbled on Automator the other day (I am a mac n00b) and would like to automate the processing of a text file, line-by-line, using a third party tool.  I would like Automator to loop through the text file one line at a time, copy the string and keep as a variable.  Next, place the variable data (copied string) into the text field of the 3rd party software for processing.  Once the processing is complete, I would like Automator to fetch the next line/string for processing.  I see items like "copy from clipboard" and  "variables" within the menu but I am not finding much documentation on how to utilizle this tool.  Just hear how potentially powerful it is. 
    The 3rd party software is not a brand name, just something made for me to process text.  I may have to use mouse clicks or tabs + [return] to navigate with Automator.  A term I heard on Bn Walldie's itunes video series was "scriptable software" for which I don't think this 3rd party app would be. 
    Kind regards,
    jw

    Good news and bad news...
    The good news is that it should be entirely possible to automate your workflow.
    The bad news is that it will be a nightmare to implement via Automator, if it's even possible.
    Automator is, essentially a pretty interface on top of AppleScript/Apple Events, and with the pretty interface comes a certain stranglehold on features. Knowing how to boil rice might make you a cook, but understanding flavor profiles and ingredient combinations can make you a chef, and it's the same with AppleScript and Automator. Automator's good at getting you from points A to B but if there are any bumps in the road (e.g. the application you're using isn't scriptable) then it falls apart.
    What I'm getting at is that your requirements are pretty simple to implement in AppleScript because you can get 'under the hood' and do exactly what you want, as opposed to Automator's restricted interface.
    The tricky part is that if no one else can see this app it's going to be hard to tell you what to do.
    I can give you the basics on reading a file and iterating through the lines of text in it, and I can show you how to 'type' text in any given application, but it may be up to you to put the pieces together.
    Here's one way of reading a file and working through each line of text:
    -- ask the user for a file:
    set theFile to (choose file)
    -- read the file contents:
    set theFileContents to (read file theFile)
    -- break out the lines/paragraphs of text:
    set theLines to paragraphs of theFileContents
    -- now iterate through those lines, one by one:
    repeat with eachLine in theLines
      -- code to perform for eachLine goes here
    end repeat
    Once you have a line of text (eachLine in the above example) you can 'type' that into another application via something like:
    tell application "AppName" to activate
    tell application "System Events"
              tell process "AppName"
      keystroke eachLine
              end tell
    end tell
    Here the AppleScript is activating the application and using System Events to emulate typing the contents of the eachLine variable into the process. Put this inside your repeat loop and you're almost there.

  • Is 3rd party software required for auto creation of DIR for scanned copy,

    Hello SAP gurus.
    The current business process is there are 100s of service order, (IW31 creation TC) and each service order has its own 50-60 external documents attached to it.
    unfortunately there is no standard link from SAP DMS at Service order (lW31, TC) level.
    Here i tought of creating a document folder in EDMS or structure with the reference of service order No. And keeping this service order as reference we need some 50-60 documents (files) to be directly assigned to the main service order No, with out any manual intervention.
    Here is what the user does in the present system
    With our client in the present system they use a 3rd party software  for mail and scanner interface, here Any x, y, z user scans an document or Mails a document with attachments, just giving the subject line as the Service order already created.
    The document attachment directly comes and sits inside the predefined Service Order folder. Along with the user name who sent the document and the time he sent the document.
    Is the same thing possible in SAP ie.. Creating or attaching documents with out any manual interventions taking the reference of Mails sent having the subject line as the DIR
    Does this require 3rd party interference to do this,  will any BAPI  /BADI to do this for DMS with out 3rd party software.
    is there any upload programme that should be used which will avoid 3rd party software.
    please explain. points waiting.
    Thanks and warm regards

  • How do I transfer photo files from desktop to ipad without 3rd party software?

    how do I transfer photo and music files from my laptop to ipad2 without purchasing a 3rd party software?

    You can use iTunes which is free (http://www.apple.com/itunes) - and that is the only way to sync music from a computer to the iPad
    Syncing photos via iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236 . You need to sync all photos that you want on the iPad together in one go, as only the most recent remains on the iPad - not including photos in a subsequent sync is how you delete them from the iPad

  • Migration of Documents from 3rd party software to SAP DMS

    Dear Experts,
    We have implemented SAP DMS . Prior to DMS we were using Third party software for creating and storing the documents.
    There are abot 3000 documents in the third party software, now the challege is how we  must have to migrate the DATA from 3rd party software to SAP DMS with creating Dirs. Are there any upload programmes suffice the requirement or any development needs to be done or any possibilities.
    Kindly help me out in the above scenario.

    Hi,
    from DMS point of view I think that SDXA functionality could also be useful for this action. For further information on SXDA functions please see SAP note 817743.

    I've fixed the problem - I think.
    I forgot I had the program "Little Snitch" installed on my computer. So I went into it and saw that it was blocking most of my connections for all the programs I use on a daily basis. Once I lifted the RULE to those certain programs - BAM - everything came back to life in an instant!

  • USB Sync with 3rd party Software

    Seem like Verizon is determined to press using it's restrictive syncing technique with MS Outlook.  I guess they still want to compete with Outlook.  There is an issue with USB sync with the Droid X.
    Android OS 2.2 supports TETHERING, but Version does not.  By allowing tethering, 3rd party software can sync with the Droid X via USB.
    Why is Verizon restricting a feature so many business users want?  To compete with Apple, Verizon should wise up and support its user communit to allow easy syncs with Outlook (Contacts, Notes, Calendar) at the subdirectory level.  Business people will not post their sensitive information on the Google site in order to sync with their phone.
    Wise up Verizon!  You are missing an opportunity in your battle with Apple!

    Hi Nitsan
    You need to contact Oracle to see if they can help you. Supporting a Discoverer installation without a support number (CSI Number) is not the right thing to do. You need to pay up and buy the necessary support so that you can get the help you need.
    Having said that, Oracle do produce lists of certified operating systems and platforms etc and you will not have a lot of luck if you go outside those boundaries. I'm not saying that you have but usually if their product works on one platform but not on another it is usually something at the platform end that is causing the problem. In this case the first place I would look is to see whether there are any settings within the 3rd party security software that can be applied to tell it that anyone running Discoverer inside IE is allowed to do so.
    It may be as simple as allowing JInitiator to work. You may also want to try using the Sun JRE instead to see if that helps.
    I strongly recommend you buy a support license. You can buy these relatively cheaply and they can be purchased in groups of I believe 25 requests (could be a different number) thus keeping the cost down. If you yourself are an independent consultant you can buy your own support license and use that to get help for your clients.
    Best wishes

  • Raising a notification from 3rd party software

    Hi
    We have a client looking at raising notifications within the asset management system of SAP via a sql/.net software application. The 3rd party software has a defect register which could be used to open the SAP notification. We would like to populate the fields automatically when the notification is opened.
    Is there a current feature within SAP to raise single or multiple notifications via a 3rd party application?
    Cheers
    Russell

    Hi russel,
    Things are where they were.
    Any Function Module(BAPI here) is the ABAP part. So the solution involves 3 parties.  The BAPI suggested helps in creating a Notification by receiving parameters as Inputs. Where these parameters come from? These come from 3rd party software (you called so) through interface (XI here)
    Flow is like this.
    Interface (XI) - Receives parameters from your Browser (assumed you called it 3rd party) and translates into SAP field names and values.
    ABAP  - Receives these inputs, feeds to the BAPI the output of which is a Notification.
    Note:
    BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_CREATE  is a Notification creation tool (Function module) in ABAP. This receives SAP field values as inputs and generates a Notification.  It has got a wide range of applications in regular SAP developments.
