What Happened to Easy iCropping???

Add me the to the list that felt cropping was the best feature in iPhoto 06, it was why I did not get Aperture as that process was also very long slow and a waste of time.
I need to edit and crop 200-300 photos at a time and iPhoto 06 was AWESOME!. iPhoto 08 is ??????
Cropping 200-300 photos (to save storage & window space), will now take 3-4 times longer...no thank you
Please, pls is there a way to have the crop feature be ALWAYS on so when you point/click the photo you can crop quickly and easily.
I hope this feature is there somewhere in iPhoto 08, if not where can a get my iPhoto '06 back?
Please, Please tell me that cropping in iPhoto '08 is not as bad as I think it might be.

Jack:
Cropping photos to a smaller size will not save space because iPhoto keeps the original file untouched and creates a new modified, i.e. cropped, file. That will actually decrease HD free space.
If you're cropping all those to the same size just crop the first one, click on Apply and then hit the right arrow and then the "C" key and then the Apply button again, etc.
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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

What happened to easy column chooser?

In iTunes 12, it looks like they took away the easy checkbox panel for choosing columns in playlists (formerly accessed by command+J).
Now, when you hit command+J you get the "view options" panel, then you have to pull down the "show columns" dropdown menu over and over to add or remove columns - many of which are nested in additional flyout menus (e.g. personal).
So, the functionality is still there, but you have to use many additional clicks to do the same job.
What gives?
Am I missing something?
Seems like a small thing perhaps - unless you manipulate playlists a lot (like me).

KT,
Under "Responding", I have "Quote the text of the original message" and "Increase quote level" boxes checked.
I also have the "include selected text..." radio button checked.

E4X: What happens to the root element?

I'm working with XML using the E4X notation. I'm used to the "old school" XML APIs that use DOM and I'm a bit confused.
For example, let's consider the following XML
<mx:XML id="myXML" >
<top>
    <sub1 id="uno">
      <sub2>hello</sub2>
      <sub3>world</sub3>
    </sub1>
    <sub1 id="duo">
      <sub2>ok</sub2>
      <sub3>ko</sub3>
    </sub1>
</top>
</mx:XML>
In my code I use the following traces. This is done with the De MonsterDebugger, but all others should work the same way. I have casted the traces to String only to make it easier to ask this question (no need post images)
MonsterDebugger.trace(this, "myXML:" + myXML);
MonsterDebugger.trace(this, "myXML.sub1: " + myXML.sub1);
MonsterDebugger.trace(this, "myXML.sub1.sub2: " + myXML.sub1.sub2);
What I get as output is
(String) = myXML:<top>
<sub1 id="uno">
    <sub2>hello</sub2>
    <sub3>world</sub3>
</sub1>
<sub1 id="duo">
    <sub2>ok</sub2>
    <sub3>ko</sub3>
</sub1>
</top>
(String) = myXML.sub1: <sub1 id="uno">
<sub2>hello</sub2>
<sub3>world</sub3>
</sub1>
<sub1 id="duo">
<sub2>ok</sub2>
<sub3>ko</sub3>
</sub1>
(String) = myXML.sub1.sub2: <sub2>hello</sub2>
<sub2>ok</sub2>
All is fine above and this was a bit long abstract for my question. The question is what happens to the root element, in this case <top>? I was trying to access the data with the following notation
myXML.top.sub1; // etc
I spent quite a lot of time trying to get it to work, until I discovered that the root element is not used. Can anyone explain this?
Or, I guess the simple explanation is that the root node is ignored and the sub nodes are created as properties of the object. The question also could be stated as: Why isn't this documented in the Flex API Reference?
Thanks.
P.S. I found this article on common E4X pitfalls which also has other interesting topics when working with E4X.

What happens to a mail item, Fn-Ctrl-Alt-Del is pressed

What happens to a mail item, when Fn-Ctrl-Alt-Del is pressed while in the mail tool? I can't seem to find the email file anywhere.
Is there a way to disable this key pattern in the mail program?

What happens to a mail item, when Fn-Ctrl-Alt-Del is pressed while in the mail tool? I can't seem to find the email file anywhere.
Looks to me like I permanently deletes the message.
Is there a way to disable this key pattern in the mail program?
Is this really a key combination you find it easy to press by mistake? To answer the question, no, it doesn't look like you can remap that, but note that if you choose Edit -> Undo immediately after deleting, the message will come back.

What happens to the conversation when you delete or move a message?

I've always been a bit unclear what happens to other message in a thread/conversation when you delete or move the current message you are reading.
Therre are 3 relevant view settings it seems:
Organize by conversation (turned on).
Display selected message only (not selected - why would one want to select this if organizing by conversation? Is there a use for that?)
Show/Hide related messages (turned on so I can see replies I sent in the conversation).
If I want to move the current message I'm reading, it seems to move the entire conversation to the target folder. But that's not what I want to do.
Yet if I delete the current message I think it only deletes that one message.
I'm a bit confused about how to think of this. Sometimes I see messages show up under "related messages" that are a year old that I thought I long deleted.
Any easy way of thinking about how this is all working?
Thanks,
doug

What happen to the scrolling arrows in word 2008?

There used to be arrows on the side for me to scroll up and down. What happened to them? I'm workinig in Word 2008 with Lion. All the scroll bar has is the double arrows which will give you the "previous," or "next page." I don't want the next page, I want to be able to scroll line by line. I just don't see anyway to do this. Note: I DO have a scroll bar, just not the single arrows that let you scroll line by line. I also don't want to move the curser by using the arrows because many time I want to keep my place.
Thanks,
Jason

I use a trackball with two buttons. Excuse me for a second for this is not actually directed at you: WHY THE **** DID THEY REMOVE THE BUTTONS!!!!!
Sorry bout that. What gets me is that they kept the double arrows for scrolling the page. but you can already do that by clicking on the bar. So they have one redundant option but took the other one out completeley?
Also seems like something that an update could fix easy.
People say to just scroll with the bar, but when you are dealing with 250 pages, then you can't move the the pages any small amounts. No
WE REALLY NEED TO SCROLL LINE BY LINE!

What happened to the Audigy 4 (non-pro) drivers on the websi

I swore a week or so there were seperate drivers for the new Audigy 4 (non-pro) on Creative's site. Now only the Audigy 4 Pro is shown under the download options. What happened? I was going to just use the online drivers with the audio console for an easy install and to ensure I have the lastest drivers.

Try download them MANUALLY. They're 5.2..6-2.08.00.000.

What happened to you?

Just can't find you and I do not want to have this Google bar as
my opening page. Can't fix with re-install. What happened to you and why is this so difficult without warning? Did I miss the memo? I just want to use firefox as my browser and I am not comfortable with Google for very much of anything. Can you help me simply recover the functionality of your browser and explain how your growth has done this to my desktop computer? I do not need mobile and I hope my bookmarks and info are safe till I can find out what happened and fix it. Thank you for your time.

Set whatever webpage that you want as your homepage.

Changing up what happens at the 'select resource - queued' step

Greetings!
So, I'm curious .. we'd like to change how we do things regarding what happens at the select resource - queued step. Our current state is a series of business checks, place the call on hold, play CUCM MOH, take the call off hold, go back to the queue loop and repeat.
To change things up I'd like to play some royalty-free music as a prompt instead of putting the call on hold. I would use boolean flags to keep track of what prompts have played so callers do not hear the same wav file over and over and over. So, I'm thinking of doing something like this ...
At the queued step ..
play a prompt
begin the queue loop
     business check
     agent check
     play royalty-free (RF) music clip 1 (45 sec)
     play informational prompt 1 (15 sec)
     opt-out check
go back to the queue loop
2nd time through ..
     business check
     agent check
     play RF 2 (45 sec)
     play info 2 (15 sec
     opt-out check
3rd time ...
     business check
     agent check
     play RF 3 (45 sec)
     play info 3 (6 sec)
     opt-out check
4th time ...
     business check
     agent check
     play RF 4 (45 sec)
     play info 4 (6 sec)
     opt-out check
And maybe one more time playing these types of prompts before we switch to placing the call on hold and playing CUCM MOH. Generally, most calls are answered before the five minute mark, however, we do have outliers who wait a very long time. Playing CUCM MOH might be the appropriate thing to do for those rare instances?
I'm curious if anyone else has tried this and am hoping for some feedback?
Thanks!
Keith

Hi
There's nothing wrong with doing it that way. I've seen a few customers play music from prompts rather than holding; it's easier to maintain/change that way.

OK, I updated to FCS2 - what happened to all my favorite effects in FCP??

Yep, my favorites folder in the browser effects tab, which I had full of my carefully crafted transitions etc., is empty. What happened to them?

Your "Favorites" were part of FCP's preference file. When you installed the later version, preferences were most likely overwritten.
To guard against this happening with future updates, hard drive crashes, preferences corruptions, etc, create an FCP project named "Favorites." Add a color matte to the Timeline and cut it up into as many pieces as you have Favorite transitions. Add all your Favorite filters to one of the clips. Save the project file.
After upgrades or any other time you're required to restore your preferences, open the "Favorites" project and drag all of the transitions and filters into the Favorites Bin to restore them.
If you have previous project files in which you used some of those Favorites, you can re-open those projects and restore them the same way - having a "Favorites" project file with all of them just makes it easier to do.

What happened to share slideshow to iDVD option?

What happened to the "share slideshow to iDVD" option? Anyone know a fix?

1. Why take away a feature that makes compatability between programs easier???
Because no new Mac has had iDVD for a few years now. It would confuse people to see a command that they can't use, is my guess. But
iPhoto menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback
and tell them what you think.

What Happens If I Miss Backups?

Just wondering what happens if I miss the weekly backups. Does it matter? I have no need to keep hourly, daily, and only dock with my external drive ocassionally and let Time Machine rip. Since 10.5.2 I now get the nice tray icon reminding me. Does it matter if I leave it a couple of weeks?
If there's a comprehensive document I can read point me there!@

Of course my data is important, but as it's slowly changing files, mainly audio files, it wouldn't be the end of the world if I didn't backup for 2 weeks, and if it's a critical milestone then I usually plug in my alternative USB drive and run a little automation script that captures only the changed files instead of tying up my machine for 2 hours while Time Machine runs!
TM is great piece of mind, but still a version 1 with many limitations. I use it cause it's easy.
thanks for your suggstions...

What happened with my camera? I can't explain it.

I shoot a lot so I've seen lots of things happen with my camera but this I can't explain. I had my 5D Mark III set up with a 17-40mm f/4L lens on a tripod late one night in my firends basement. I had my camera on RAW and was doing light paiting and shots with a couple 600ex R/T's. I looked at every shot after I took it to adjust lighting and I know when I do and don't take photos becuase I had my intevolometer set up to control camera shake easier and control when I do and don't ake a photo. I went back to look at the photos I took and there was an image I did not take (which is attached). It was a giant green circle that took up the entire center of the image and was perfectly centered. There was no light at all when the camera took the picture because I had lights off to control the lighting as I was showing my friends what you can do with a couplt flash units and radio transmitter as they were not photographers. No light could of reproduced because of the way the light falls off in what almost appears to be banding. The pattern as you can see on the image is extremely weird and interesting the way the pattern falls off. The weirdest part didn't even happen yet. When I loaded the image onto the computer the photo completely changed on me in Lightroom to the weirdest colorful pattern on its own without me touching a thing. I reloaded it and the same thing happened but when I renamed the file and then loaded it into lightroom the image stayed. What happened? Has anybody came accross this before? Let me know, the place is supposedly haunted but I'm sure there is an explainable reason why this happened the way it did.

It is simply a corrupted image. You did shoot it. You just can't tell because of the corrupted file. The last is how LR interpted it. I would replace the CF card. Especially if it happens again. And if it keeps happening have the camera checked out.

What happened to the finder sidebar menu?

I have had to spend sooooo much time trying to locate files that I just closed! What happened to the Finder menu that listed TODAY, PAST WEEK, etc? It's nervewracking! I don't want to open the files but upload them. I don't like that I can't just find them easilyl in the menu format before...... I'm not sure I like this so-called upgrade.... on the iphone it's cool, but on the MAC.. not so sure I like it.

Under your stuff, you can click on Profile and it'll show your equipment - you can change it there.
Now, as for the Finder Sidebar, if you go to Finder Preferences and click on Sidebar, it will show everything that can be shown there. Some changes were made in Lion - one of them is "all my files" - I don't need that, so I unchecked it, but you may want to try it to see if that can be useful for you. And, under the Go Menu, you can use Go To Folder. I never used any of the options you've used simply because I've never needed that. Maybe you can arrange/file your stuff by name so it'll be easier to find?
