What's the connection between iPhoto and Desktop Images?

I've had a problem for a couple weeks now, where I want to change my desktop wallpaper image and it won't stay set to the new image after I re-boot or re-start.
Yesterday, I stumbled upon a suggestion to re-load images into iPhoto so they show up under Events.  I set the wallpaper image, rebooted and the old image came back.
This morning, I went back into iPhoto and selected each of the folders where I could see the new image.  I selected the image, set it as desktop wallpaper and re-started.  It worked.  I changed the image to something else using the System Preferences --> Desktop & Screen Saver option, then re-booted and confirmed the new image I had selected was still set.
Voila!  The problem was solved.
But what I don't know, is why iPhoto had anything to do with System Preferences --> Desktop & Screen Saver selections.  I was trying to select the image in the main Pictures folder where I've always kept the images for my desktop but they wouldn't stay.  The only way I was able to fix the problem is to use iPhoto and somehow, whatever it was that got corrupted was now fixed.
I've spent a good few hours over the course of the last couple weeks trying to fix the issue but I haven't yet found an actual fix until now as I stumbled upon it myself by chance.  Any insights one may be able to share would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to know the difference between User Profile Service and User Information List.
The user profile store in SharePoint contains information about users. User profiles can be created by importing users from a user account directory, or they can be created manually.
In most environments Active Directory will be used as the source for creating user profiles. The user profile imports can be scheduled to  run on a regular basis and they can be either  incremental or full.
However, the information in the user information list is stored in the UserInfo table in the content database of the site.
A user gets added to the user information list  when he or she has accesses the site for the first time.
In the user information list a user's email address, login name and name are stored. SharePoint will make sure that user profile property information for those fields for users that are added to the user information list is sent to the user.
For more reference:

  • Can someone please tell me a simple but effective method for burning a slideshow to DVD? Now that the connection between iPhoto and iDVD no longer exists, I can't figure out a way to get there with an acceptable quality result.

    Can someone please tell me a simple but effective method for burning a slideshow to DVD? Now that the connection between iPhoto and iDVD no longer exists, I can't figure out a way to get there with an acceptable quality result.

    Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar.  Select Size = Medium or Large.
    Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
    If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailier like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com.  Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago. 
    Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
    If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides  themes from iDVD 5-7.  The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them. 
    Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
    This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
    You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

  • What is the relationship between iPhoto and my pictures ?

    I hope you don't mind if I pose another question to you: one that's been bothering me for some time. It has to do with iPhoto and storing photos in general. So far I have been placing my photos in >my mac>my pictures and then working through iPhoto to sort them into categories, events, etc. So far, so good, but I don't understand the relationship between the two. For example, I can create new folders in iPhoto, but that doesn't change my original folders in my pictures at all; so where are the iPhoto folders on my mac? And if I delete from >my pictures, then does that also automatically delete them from iPhoto, or visa versa? The set up that I would ideally like to have is that everything I do in iPhoto automatically updates my actual photos in >my mac>my pictures. Is that possible? Or am I going about this the wrong way? Your input would be appreciated. Thanks. Adrian

    You're going about it the wrong way
    iPhoto is a Database. The entire point of it is that you can manage your photos without recourse to your files. This is more powerful and a whole lot more flexible than files in folders.
    iPhoto can run in two modes: Managed and Referenced.
    In Managed (the default mode) your photos are copied into the iPhoto Library when you import them. I would strongly suspect that this is the case in your set-up. This is the best way to run iPhoto.
    It also means that you now have two copies of the photos - on in the iPhoto Library, the other in your Pictures Folder. (And by the way, there's no "my pictures" folder on a Mac. It's just the Pictures Folder. I'm always amused by the "my" prefix on WIndows folders. Who else's files would they be? If they belong to someone else, shouldn't you have a "their" Pictures Folder too? Any enough of a pointless digressions)
    In Referenced mode iPhoto does not copy the files into the LIbrary. It simply references them where you have put them. I'll add a bit to the end of this post explaining some of the gotchas with this mode.
    How can you tell if you're running a Managed or a Referenced Library? Go to iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. Is the box at Copy Items to the iPhoto Library checked?
    As iPhoto is a database there is
    a: No relationship between the photos in your Pictures Folder and iPhoto if you have a Managed Library
    b: Minimal relationship if you have a Referenced Library.
    For example, I can create new folders in iPhoto, but that doesn't change my original folders in my pictures at all; so where are the iPhoto folders on my mac?
    They are entries in the iPhoto database.
    And if I delete from >my pictures, then does that also automatically delete them from iPhoto,
    Again: depending on whether your Managed or Referenced:
    a: Managed: No it does not, makes no dfference to iPhoto at all.
    b: Referenced: You've just corrupted your iPhoto Library.
    When you use iPhoto it's your "Go To" app for photographs. The point is that you don't manipulate the files in the Finder any more. You use iPhoto to import, iPhoto to organise, share and so on, you use iPhoto to Delete too.
    or visa versa?
    Managed: Deleting from iPhoto also removes the files from the HD.
    Referenced: Deleting Files from iPhoto only removes those elements within the iPhoto Library. You then need to trash the original file yourself. Why? When you elected to Reference the files you said to iPhoto "I want to manage the files myself" So manage them.
    The set up that I would ideally like to have is that everything I do in iPhoto automatically updates my actual photos in >my mac>my pictures. Is that possible?
    That's not possible. That's file organising, and as I said, iPhoto is about Photo organising. Albums, Folders, Slideshows etc in iPhoto are all virtual, that is they are entries in the database. The advantage of this is that a photo can be in 50 albums and use no extra disk space at all. Also, iPhoto has no ability to manage files outside the iPhoto Library Folder.
    So how do you actually get to your files if you want to email, upload etc?
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    *For Users of 10.5 and later*
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    *For users of 10.4 and later* ...
    Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    *If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
    For users of 10.6 and later:
    You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and later:
    Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    *To work with another editor*
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
    Note that iPhoto sends a copy+ of the file to Photoshop, so when you save be sure to use the Save command, not Save As... If you use Save As then you're creating a new file and iPhoto has no way of knowing about this new file. iPhoto is preserving your original anyway.
    Finally +On Running a Referenced Library:+
    *How to do it:*
    Simply go to iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Advanced and uncheck 'Copy Files to the iPhoto Library on Import'.
    *What Happens:*
    Now iPhoto will not copy the files, but rather simply reference them on your HD. To do this it will create an alias in the Originals Folder that points to your file. It will still create a thumbnail and, if you modify the pics, a Modified version within the iPhoto Library Folder.
    *Some things to consider:*
    1. Importing and deleting pics are more complex procedures. You have to to put the files where they will be stored before importing them. When you delete them you'll need to remove the files from the HD yourself.
    2. You cannot move or rename the files on your system or iPhoto will lose track of them on systems prior to 10.5 and iPhoto 08. Even with the later versions issues can still arise if you move the referenced files to new volumes or between volumes.
    3. Most importantly, migrating to a new disk or computer can be much more complex.
    4. Because iPhoto has no tools for managing Referenced Files, if, for some reason, the path to the photos changes then you could find yourself resolving aliases for +each photo in the Library+ one by one.
    My own opinion:
    I've yet to see a good reason to run iPhoto in referenced mode unless you're using two photo organiser
    I know there's lot there, so by all means post back if you need more
    Regards

  • What's the connection between data connections (3G/4G/WiFi) and phone signal strength (calls)?

    At home I'm almost always on my wifi with the 3G/4G turned off.  I've turned it on to experiment, and I get 3G in my house, but the reception (to make and receive phone calls) stays at 0 to 1 bars.  There is a Target store about a 10 minute walk from my house and I get 4G LTE when I'm shopping there, but the reception (calls) is still weak, maybe better but I can't tell you offhand.
    There is a Verizon tower about 6 miles southwest of my home; they actually had me drive out and sit under it last winter to fix a Droid Pro problem once.
    I absolutely do not understand how 3G and 4G relate to call signal strength, as it's been eluded to in other discussions.  I'm getting the impression that it affects the signal strength for phone calls, but then how can I (on my old phone) toggle it off and still have signal for calls?  When I drive into the heart of 4G LTE country I can turn off the data and still have 4 or 5 bars.  What's the connection between data and phone signal strength?

    "Service isn't guaranteed inside buildings."
    Nor outside,
    Nor under a tower,
    Nor in a car,
    Nor while eating green eggs and ham,

    Connecting a hard drive to the Airport Extreme makes it available to be shared across all the computers on your network.
    WAN (Wide Area Network) is your connection to the internet

  • What is the diffrence between PGA and UGA?

    Hi All
    Just one question
    "What is the diffrence between PGA and UGA?"
    Thanks

    PGA Memory
    The Program Global Area (PGA) is a memory region that contains data and control information for a single process (server or background). The PGA is made up of the following:
    Stack Space
    A PGA always contains a stack space, which is memory allocated to hold a session's variables, arrays, and other information.
    Session Information - (UGA)
    A PGA in an instance running without the multi-threaded server (named Shared Server in Oracle9i) requires additional memory for the user's session, such as private SQL areas and other information. If the instance is running the multi-threaded server, this extra memory is not in the PGA, but is instead allocated in the SGA (the Shared Pool).
    Shared SQL Areas
    Shared SQL areas are always in shared memory areas of the SGA (not the PGA), with or without the multi-threaded server.
    Non-shared and Writable
    The PGA is a non-shared memory area to which a process can write. One PGA is allocated for each server process; the PGA is exclusive to a server process and is read and written only by Oracle code acting on behalf of that process.
    UGA Memory
    The UGA, or User Global Area, is allocated in the PGA for each session connected to Oracle in a dedicated server environment. The PGA is memory allocated at the client to hold a stack which contains all of the session's variables, etc. In a Shared Server environment, Oracle allocates this memory in the Shapred Pool (the shared pool is contained in the SGA), for all sessions. This helps to reduce the PGA (client) memory footprint of Oracle, but will increase the SGA (shared pool) requirements.

  • What is the difference between start() and run()

    Hi:
    what is the difference between start() and the run()???
    in my app, i have
    Console.debug( "starting thread to listen for clients" );
    _server = new Server( this );
    _server.start();
    _server extends Thread..
    why everytime i use server.start(); my app will terminate on it is own, even though in my servr.run() method, i have a while loop
    and if i call _server.run() explicitly in my code, that while loop will be in execution
    can someone let me know??
    thnx

    what is the difference between start() and the
    run()???start() is a method on Thread that tells it to start.
    run() is a method in the object that the thread executes.
    why everytime i use _server.start(); my app will
    terminate on it is own, Err.... I'm not convinced this is true. It'll throw an IllegalThreadStateException, if you try to restart an existing thread.
    If that's what you're saying.
    even though in my _servr.run()
    method, i have a while loopI don't see the connection. Are you saying that the while loop never terminates, and you don't see why the thread is terminating?
    and if i call _server.run() explicitly in my code,
    that while loop will be in executionIf you call server.run() explicitly, then run() will be executed in the same thread that you called it in.

  • What's the difference between 2nd and 3rd generation

    PLEASE HELP! New Apple user and looking to purchase a used 2nd or 3rd generation ipod touch.
    what's the difference between 2nd and 3rd generation?
    apparently I am told that the 2nd gen does not have the capabilities of listening without headphone? and the 3rd gen does??

    Hi maximumslowness - (great name),
    The 2nd gen Touch has one internal speaker, so you can listen to it, (both left and right channels) without headphones.
    However - it's a small single speaker and it is not very loud. It's not designed for quality listening (neither is the speaker on the 3rd gen as far as I know) and probably will not be adequate if there is a lot of background noise nearby.
    One option is to drop the iPod (not literally!) into an iPod Docking station so that the sound can play out through a self-contained mains-powered amplified speaker, which will also charge your iPod. There are many on the market. On the bottom of the iPod is the 30-pin dock connector which can be used to feed the audio to a docking station. Another option is simply to use a cable to connect from the headphone socket to the audio input on any amplifier.
    Yet another is to plug in a small fold-up style speakers, such as
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Portable-Folding-Speakers-iPods-Players/dp/B000A1QKNU/re f=sr_1_84?ie=UTF8&qid=1332326622&sr=8-84

    I've no idea how good the sound is, you'll have to judge that for yourself. The links are both to a UK store, but most countries will have a similar option.
    I do not recieve any form of payment or compensatiion for the above links.

  • What's the difference between setFollowRedirect() and setinstanceFollowRedi

    What's the difference between setFollowRedirect() and setInstanceFollowRedirect() ?????

    Hi there,
    setFollowRedirects and setInstanceFollowRedirects both set flags that indicate whether or not the HtppURLConnection should follow a redirect if it receives one from the server that it is connecting to. The difference is that setFollowRedirects() is a static method that changes the behaviour for all instances of the HttpURLConnection class (or more likely the implementation class, HttpURLConnection is abstract) and setInstanceFollowRedirects() just changes it for the instance on which you call it.
    BTW: The field set by setFollowRedirects is private (followRedirects) while the flag set by setInstanceFollowDirects is protected and is listed in the API docs (instanceFollowRedirects)
    Hope this helps

    HR deals with the INFOTYPES which are similar to Tables in General ABAP.
    There are different ways of fetching data from these infotypes.
    There are different areas in HR LIKE Personal Admn, Orgn Management, Benefits, Time amangement, Event Management, Payroll etc
    Infotypes for these areas are different from one another area.
    storing of records data in each type of area is different
    LDBS like PNP are used in HR programing.
    Instead of Select.. we use some ROUTINES and PROVIDE..ENDPROVIDE.. etc
    and in the case of Pay roll we use Clusters and we Import and Export them for data fetching.
    On the whole Normal ABAP is different from HR abap.

    Look at the below link
    And finally,
    Few notes are below:
    InfoSets in the HR Application
    You can use SAP Query in HR to report on HR data. Queries are maintained as described in Creating Queries. The special features of queries created for HR are described in Maintaining Queries in the Human Resources Application. The maintenance procedure for HR InfoSets differs from the described procedure inasmuch as HR data fields are grouped together in infotypes.
    InfoSet management in SAP Query is also used for InfoSet Query. For further information, see Functions for Managing InfoSets.
    If you want to create InfoSets for HR, you can use logical databases PNP, PNPCE, PAP, and PCH (see HR Logical Databases). The database you must use to create your InfoSet depends on the component in which the data you want to report on is stored.
    The reports you can execute using InfoSets based on logical databases PNP (or PNPCE) or PCH are similar, but differ in that they can select different objects. The following table describes the connection between the logical database, and the infotypes you can include in an InfoSet. It also provides you with one or two examples of reports that you can execute using the appropriate InfoSets.
    Logical database PNP/PNPCE* PCH PAP
    Selection of Persons Objects from Personnel Planning Applicants
    Infotypes that can be included in the InfoSet Infotypes for· Personnel Administration (0000-0999) · Time Management (2000-2999) · Payroll infotypes · Infotypes for Personnel Planning objects that can be related to persons If the object type is specified:· Infotypes for the object type · Infotypes for objects that can be related to the specified object typeIf the object type is not specified:· All infotypes · Infotypes for Recruitment (4000-4999)· Some infotypes for Personnel Administration (such as 0001 and 0002)
    · Customer infotypes
    Reporting examples · Selection of all persons who participated in a specific business event, output of prices for reserved business events · Selection of all persons assigned to a specific personnel area, output of qualifications held by these persons · Selection of all business events held in London in March, output of all persons who participated in these business events · Selection of all positions assigned to a specific organizational unit, output of all persons assigned to the positions · Selection of all applicants hired last year to work on special projects, output of addresses for the applicants selected
    Logical database PNPCE (PNP Concurrent Employment) functions just like logical database PNP. The procedure for creating InfoSets is also the same. It only becomes significant if you work with Concurrent Employment.
    Creating InfoSets
    The maintenance procedure for HR InfoSets differs from the procedure described so far in this section inasmuch as HR data fields are grouped together in infotypes. To set up an InfoSet for the HR application, proceed as follows:
    1. On the initial screen for maintaining InfoSets, enter a name for the InfoSet and choose Create.
    2. On the next screen, enter a name for the InfoSet and select one of the HR logical databases in accordance with your reporting requirements.
    Customer infotypes can be created on all HR logical databases. In each individual case, therefore, you must decide which database to select so that you can report on customer infotypes.
    This screen enables you to enter an authorization group. All of the queries that are subsequently created using this InfoSet can only be executed by persons who have this authorization group.
    3. Choose .
    This takes you to the Infotype Selection for InfoSet  screen. You now have the option of creating field groups and assigning fields as required for non-HR InfoSets. Field groups that correspond to infotypes and already contain fields, however, are always created for HR InfoSets. The field groups are displayed in an overview tree in the top right section of the screen.
    The infotypes that you included in the InfoSet are displayed in an overview tree on the left of the screen. The infotype fields that are already included in field groups are displayed in a different color, and the corresponding field group ID is displayed.
    In the standard system, a field group is created automatically for each infotype that you included in the InfoSet (a field group corresponds to an infotype).
    In the standard system, each field group contains the infotype-specific fields. To ensure that working with the InfoSet is as easy as possible, you are advised to restrict your use of fields in each field group to those you really require. This means you should remove fields that are not required.
    An infotype's fields must only be assigned to the pertinent field group. Make sure this assignment is correct. If the assignment is incorrect, the InfoSet could be rendered unusable.
    When an InfoSet is created, the following fields are transferred automatically to the first field group:
    § Logical database PNPCE or PNP Personnel number
    § Logical database PAP Applicant number
    § Logical database PCH Object ID, plan version, and object type
    6. Determine the fields that must be included in the field groups of your InfoSet. If you require further information, see Assigning Fields to a Field Group.
    If you want, you can change the default sequence of field groups and fields as required using Drag&Drop.
    7. To save the InfoSet, choose .
    8. To generate the InfoSet, choose .
    On the Change InfoSet (InfoSet name) screen, you can choose Edit ® Change infotype selection to add more infotypes to the InfoSet, or to remove infotypes from the InfoSet. Remember to regenerate the InfoSet afterwards.
    This screen also enables you to update InfoSets if, for example, the system contains new additional fields for specific key values. To do so, choose InfoSet ® Additional functions ® Update additional HR fields.
    9. Go back to the initial screen for InfoSet maintenance.
    10. Choose User group assignment.
    11. Select a user group, and save your entry.
    sample code
    START-OF-SELECTION.

    READ TABLE p0001 WITH KEY pernr = p0000-pernr.
    if sy-subrc = 0.

    endif.
    endif.

    PLS Pls help me .

    hi, a socketConnection is a subclass of StreamConnection. In other word, a StreamConnection is an interface (template) to improve more specific connection like : FileConnection, HttpConnection, ...
    If you have to connect a specific server, use SocketConnection, if it's a HTTP server use HttpConnection ...
