What happens to the old artwork when you add new or updated artwork

I have been in the process of updating the artwork in my iTunes library to provide the highest quality images available. I obtain this from a variety of sites including using the "Get Album Artwork" in iTunes, using the album artwork widget, using a search on Google Images and from anew site recently recommended that provides exceptionally quality album artwork.
When I obtain these from either Google Images or any third party site I typically drag a copy to my desktop and then I go to "Get Info" on the particular album title and either drop and drag the artwork into the box or int he cases where I have to crop some of the area or color adjust I copy in paste over the existing artwork.
My question and concern is what is happening to the original artwork I had stored in iTunes? When I copy and paste or drop and drag is the existing image being erased or as I fear am I accumulating a huge folder of obsolete artwork somewhere that is ever growing and taking up more and more of my disk space for storage? If this is the case how do I find these artwork files and delete them?
Thank You

If I merge libraries and then back the merged libraries up onto an external drive or DVD, do I just back up the libraries themselves, or do I also back up the original files?
If you're running a Managed Library, then backing up the Library also backs up the original files.
I ask because my HDD is getting pretty full. I want to reduce the amount of stuff on it, and the iPhoto libraries are the biggest single consumer of space at the moment (Nearly 100GB).
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
Regards
TD
P.s. If you're running a Managed library, then it's the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing
If you're running a Referenced Library, then you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced and iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing.

What happens to the closed captions when you delete a video or audio from a slide? (Captivate 7)

This might be a silly question but ...
I have a presentation with audio voiceover on every slide and videos on some. I have entered closed captioning for all of them. This is a pretty time consuming job.
What happens if I run into a problem with a video or audio clip and need to replace it? If I delete that audio or video from the slide, what happens to all the closed captioning that you added to it? I'm assuming it's deleted when you delete it from the slide.
If I export the captions before deleting the audio/video file, can I then reimport them when I replace the audio/video file with a fixed version?
Thanks for any clarification.

Hi there,
You can have CC with Slide audio and Multi Slide video in Captivate.
If you will delete the slide audio or Multi slide Video, then CC will get disabled on that slide, but same CC text will retain there as Slide notes.
Now, once you will re insert the audio or multi slide video you can mark that slide notes as CC again, or can have new CC.
So, even after deleting the audio and multi slide video, CC will not be deleted.
check following section in Captivate:
Thanks.

What happens to the cube performance when you have too many UDAs?

Hi,
what's the impact on the cube performance if you have too many UDAs associated with the same level of members? Let's say 15 UDAs for each member
If attribute is not an option, what's another way to help alleviate the data load?

Hi,
Adding UDAs to the outline doesn't impact the size of Essbase database.
I've seen cubes with over 70 UDAs. And I think UDAs is the best choice to set load rules.
But for considering of the implication of Dynamic calculations as reporting on UDAs can be slow. Define UDAs on sparse dimensions only.

I wish to recycle a number of macs. What happens to the hard drive when sent to Simms? Do I need to dismount them?

I wish to recycle a number of macs. What happens to the hard drive when sent to Simms? Do I need to dismount them?

Hard drives don't die then come back to life. Your drive never died. You just thought it did.
Obviously, if a hard drive isn't on and spinning its life is longer than when it is always on and spinning. If a hard drive in a laptop is idle it goes to sleep. That's normal because it prolongs battery life. Of course it hardly matters if the computer is running on AC power. The drive may still go to sleep but there's no impact on the battery.
If the computer is in use 24/7 then its useful life will be less than if it's in use only 12/7 or 8/7. This is both logical and obvious. But in the long run all computers or their hard drives fail. There is little you can do to prevent that. They are meant to be used. If your life is dependent on the computer being usable, then buy another one as a spare. Or at the very least buy a backup drive, keep the computer backed up, then you can worry less about drive failure.

They changed the way we see our appointments. That's awful! Is there a way to chnage back to the "old" way when you could see all your appointments at a glance????

Maybe I'm fool, but how I get the "day view"? I have three options on the top line, an icon that seems a computer (a square and two lines), a magnifying glass to search a especific item and a "plus" to add appointments. The "day view" isn't any more there - that's the point!!! Using the first icon a get the full month-that uses 2/3 of the screen- and two lines of appointments...To see the rest I have to slide up and down the two lines taking care to not touch the month...

He latest version of Firefox is incompatible with my Mac. Where can I go to download an earlier version as I deleted the old one when I was prompted to update I have a Mac OS X Version 10.5.8 Dual 2.3 GHz Power PC G5

The latest version of Firefox is incompatible with my Mac. Where can I go to download a later version than 3. I was able to download an earlier version in order to get working on Firefox. Unfortunately, I had deleted the old one when I was prompted to update
I have a Mac OS X Version 10.5.8 Dual 2.3 GHz Power PC G5

For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4 / 5 / 6, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />

Or use 3.6.21 <br />

What happened to the old iMove HD? Bring it back, please

I suspect the reason it went bye bye was because it was cannibalizing FCP Express sales. But I really have no use for the new iMovie. A lot of useless effects and now this ridiculous Trailer feature. Forget the trailer, I wanna cut the **** movie! The old iMovie allowed you to do both. You could cut a movie with it, and you didn't have to learn FCP either. I can't cut anything in the new iMovie. Is there anyone else who's with me?

but it's basically aimed at people who just want to knock something together easily and quickly.
Yes You are absolutly right. BUT
When they done that - the forum fills up with questions on WHY isn't it Hollywood Quality ?
And this comes suprisingly soon. That's why me and others react with our spine
and blabing out the quality aspect before people burned away some tens of DVDs not
figuring out why they doesn't look as on the Mac screen.
Sorry - sometime more information than asked for - gives the Anti-reaction.
Enjoy iMovie'11 and if You by any chanse figure out - howto share the result in
a Professional Quality (as Your Camera put's in Your hand)
Please ! Please ! Share it with me - I love to share my "far from Master Pieces"
and at a quality I was used too.
Yours really Bengt W

What happened to the old JamPack 1?

Before the SteveNote, the four JamPacks Apple sold were:
Jam Pack 1
Jam Pack 2: Remix Tools
Jam Pack 3: Rhythm Section
Jam Pack 4: Symphony Orchestra
Now, the four they sell are:
Jam Pack 1: Remix Tools
Jam Pack 2: Rhythm Section
Jam Pack 3: Symphony Orchestra
Jam Pack 4: World Music
So what happened to the original JamPack 1? Have all of those loops and instruments been rolled up into GarageBand 3's default install, or are all those loops and instruments just plain discontinued?

JamPack 1 is now included as a standard part of GB3.
Where did you get this information from? Another poster recently said this:

Re: Jam Packs for Garage Band 3
Posted: Jan 14, 2006 6:57 PM in response to: Logic Expert
I think people are thinking it was included because its no longer listed as for sale at the Apple store.
However it appears you are right. I did a clean install of Garageband 3 while my Jam Pack 1 folder was moved elsewhere and renamed, and the Garageband installer did not put any of those loops on my hard drive.
For those wanting to check, the first loop listed in the Jam Pack 1 folder is "12 String Dream 01.aif" - so you can see if you have it anywhere.

HT4796 what happens to the transferred files when the migration aborts?

My migration aborted after an hour because the windows computer went to sleep. What happened to the files that already transferred? Where are they stored during the transfer? The mac is mtn lion.

Look in /var/folders
In my case /var/folders/zz/blahblahlbah/T/.XMSandbox-tmp/Users/userid/Root
rebooting got rid of them

What happens to the old phone at the time one gets (upgrades) to the 3G?

So, I understand that the old phone stops working when you upgrade to the 3G, as they will transfer your number to it's SIM.
I am wondering how instantaneous it is, and what actually happens, i.e. is displayed on the old phone.
I am thinking of upgrading my wife's phone while she is on a plane returning - the account is in my name - so I won't have the physical phone with me. When she turns the old one on does it display a sim error, or say 'deactivated', or 'emergency only', or...... ???
Thanks!
Dan

Nothing will happen to phone physically, it will just show "no service" in the upper left of phone. She won't be able to make calls, as they activate the phone at time of purchase. Otherwise, it will work normally.

What happens to the music files when I delete iTunes?

OK, I have iTunes and over the years I have moved files about and tried to organize and back up stuff! And now it seems like I have three of each track showing in iTunes. Some of these, when you click on you get an exclamation mark and a file can't be found! Now to go through it one would be labourious and very very time-consuming.
So if I straight up uninstall, and hunt down any reference to iTunes on my PC, what will happen to all my music files? Do they go in the uninstall? Am I best backing them up to another hard drive for safe keeping first? (I'll probably do that any way) Or are they safe where they are until I reinstall iTunes? Will this fix my deadlinks and duplaicate problem?
Many thanks

Uninstalling iTunes will not delete your music files. However, other things will, such as a hard drive failure or physical damage. So yes, you should always have a backup of your valuable music.

What happened to the custom homepage where you could add websites to it and go to one by clicking it

I remember an older version of firefox where you could have a custom homepage. In this homepage, you could add different websites to it and they would show up in a picture. When you click on one, it takes you to that website. You could even change the color and background and everything. I tried downloading other versions of firefox but I still couldn't find it. What happened to it?

Most likely it was an add-on you were using. For example, there is one named [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/speed-dial/ Speed Dial] that sounds somewhat similar. If you look around the add-ons site, can you find it, or one like it?

What happens to the function keys when i unplug the extended keyboard?

i use my laptop (12 function keys) with a wired apple aluminum extended keyboard (19 function keys). i assigned a few functions (screen shots mostly) to the upper function keys on the keyboard... f16-f19. but when i unplug the keyboard i'm not sure how to get those functions on the laptop keyboard.
what happens to those functions when the keyboard is unplugged? is there a way to map those functions to the keyboard so that they are re-assigned when it's unplugged?

wilyliang wrote:
question still remains: do f16, etc., exist or can they be re-invented once the USB keyboard is removed (besides having to re-map the shortcuts each time)?
I haven't found a way, though there might be.
or even: is it possible to assign two different key combos/function keys to a single command/shortcut?
Now that depends on the application that's assigning the shortcuts. Some Microsoft and Adobe apps allow multiple shortcuts per function, I've taken advantage of those a few times myself. But cheaper apps often cut you off at one shortcut.

After my photo in photo stream exceeded 1000photos, what happen to the old photos? Is it automatically deleted from my photo stream? How do i get it back those photos?

can anyone help me on this matter?

Once they're deleted, you can't get them back. You're supposed to save them before this happens. To do this, save them to your camera roll (by tapping Edit, tap all the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll), then import them to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
If the missing photo stream photos were in your camera roll when you last backed up, then would be included in the backup. Restoring the backup should recover them.
