  • Aperture 3.1.2 When exporting files to Finder is creating a folder for each file, that means export 200 files is creating 200 folders for each files. Does anyone knows how to fix this. Thanks

    No. This is NOT true. I've been battling with this for a couple hours.
    I choose Export>Versions
    choose
    Subfolder Format: Project Name
    no custom subfolder
    Name Format: Current Version Name.
    Aperture creates project folders for each image and names them Projects1, Projects2, Projects3 etc.
    To be sure, I have no project named Projects
    x
    This particular Aperture library has 16 projects. you can see in the screen grab it's created more than 30 folders
    If I uncheck the Subfolder, that is say NONE, I just get images and images and images, not in their project folders (of course, because I've said NONE, so why would it put them in project folders?)
    I just want to export the entire library and have the versions placed in folders named by the projects from which they came.... ez enough, no?

  • Everytime I hit the   button to add a folder it says CANNOT CREATE A FOLDER AT THIS TIME

    Everytime I hit the button to add a folder it says CANNOT CREATE A FOLDER AT THIS TIME. I've already created several folders but now this comes up. I signed in and out a few times to see if that would change anything.

    Finally got to the store to see what was going on. I didn't do it. My previous carrier was still holding my number even though it was working before. Verizon called and got it released and problem solved!!  Thanks!!

  • My music will not sync to my ipod it only says revert and I cant open up music i purchased on itunes. I started having this problem when I updated my ipod

    My music will not sync to my ipod it only says revert and I cant open or play music i purchase on itunes. This problem occured when i updated my ipod.
    Thanks

    I also have a 4G ipod touch and a similar problem. Since I updated to the ios5 software any new songs I add to my iTunes don't sync to my ipod main playlist. They show up in the 'recently added' playlist, but not in the main 'songs' section. I fixed the problem once by restoring to factory settings and rather than reinstalling from a backup, I created a new ipod name and synced everything onto my ipod as if it was new.
    This worked until the next new song I added and then the same problem started all over again. If you do reinstall everything as new, you may want to take a screen shot of where all your apps are and make sure all your photos etc are saved, as everything will be from scratch. Hope this helps!

  • TS4009 set up my new iPhone 5S 6 hours ago - when go to Music it says "Loading iTunes Match-" now status bar - how long does it take?  how can I see the progress or status of the Load?  I don't know if it is actually doing anything

    How can I find the status of loading iTunes match?  I set up my iPhone 5S over 6 hours ago and still no music.  No status bar - I don't know if anything is even downloading

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It shouldn't take anywhere near that, I'd try again, make sure you have a good connection.

  • HT1373 I have a new Ipad with retina display but two issues with itunes 1) I can not syncronize films&music with the library on my mac and 2) When I download music or films from itunes to my ipad from itunes store the download never finishes. Any help??

    I have a two problems with my new Ipad 2 operating system iOS 6.1.3
    1) I can not syncronize with my itunes purchaces that I have on my mac book pro (operating system mountain lion)
    2) When i purchase items from itunes store the downloads never finishes
    I have tried starting and re-starting. Resetting the Ipad to original settings and non of this have worked. Any idea to what I should do?
    Thanks a lot, Josephine

    That's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.
    So, an update... after reading through a bunch of similar complaints (there are literally 1000's of them so there's NO WAY this isn't somehow ios7 related, thanks a lot APPLE ) I decided to try a restore in recovery mode. After 3 hours and several disconnections... I ended up having to just set it up as a new iPad, as the restore did nothing. Weirdly though... as I was doing the restore in recovery mode.. I noticed I'd gotten up to a 10% charge.. higher than it's been since September, so after setting it up as a new device, I turned it off and plugged it in using the wall charger. 2 hours later and I was up to 38%. Still not great, as my iPad, before ios7 could've fully charged twice in the amount of time it took for me to now get 28% more of a charge. And that's with a fully cleaned out device.. so that really ***** and I'm now more confused than ever.
    But I'm gonna leave it overnight charging and see what I come up with tomorrow. Sadly, when I paid $600 for it in February, I never expected to have to play "wait and see" with it...

  • Update Folder Name in Itunes after altering Folder Name in Windows Explorer

    I changed the names of Album folders using Windows Explorer. How can I make the new folder names appear in the Album list within Itunes?

    iTunes doesn't display the folder names, it displays imnformation in the library database which it takes from the tags. If you want to chamge what iTunes displays, use Get Info to edit the information.
    But if you change folder names in Windows explorer, iTunes will no longer be able to find the files as the path has changed and iTunes doesn't do folder watching.

  • Garageband Keeps Creating a folder in my MUSIC folder

    Everytime i open Garageband, and Logic Pro. It creates a folder in my MUSIC folder entitled Garageband.
    I Save all my projects, bounces, samples, sounds, etc in a Projects folder on my desktop and I do not see the need for this folder. Is their a way to direct it elsewhere, or stopit fromhappening all together?
    Thanks

    I'm pretty sure that folder is going to be made no matter what but you can direct garageband to save your file to any location you want. Select save as and the window promts the user as to where to save the file. Just select the location you want.

  • Why does a my layered Illustrator file open with only one layer, when opened by someone else?

    I am using CS6, as is the other user.  When they open the file in Illustrator all the artwork is on one layer, even though the original file has numerous layers, and opens with these layers when I open it even now.
    I have never come across this problem before in all the years I have used Illustrator and have had no joy when trying to search for this problem.
    Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated as it is confusing us!
    Thank you.

    Hi Mike, Wade & Larry,
    Thank you so much for your replies.
    Since I posted this issue, I was later informed that the other user is infact opening my files with CS5 and so a quick solution to this was saving it down to a previous version! Sorry for the confusion!
    This problem then becomes clear that it was a version error, but I have always had an error message come up if I try to open something that was created in a newer verion - is this no longer the case?
    I have been assured no pop up messages appear when opening the file which I find odd, and also that this layer compression has only just started happening even though many files have been back and forth previously.
    A little mystery! At least for now it is all working ok again
    Thank you all very much, greatly appreciated.

  • Error in Local Message System: Error when opening an RFC connection Message

    Hi
    Based on the instance number of the servers, you can determine the gateway to be used.
    IF your ECC instance number is , 01 then gateway would be , sapgw01 (in ECC system)
    So check and change the settings accordingly, in the RFC connection. Also check, if this entry sapgw01 is made in /etc/service file. Also check, in transaction smgw for gateway parameters.
    Hope this info helps,
    ~ Raj

  • SERIOUS BUG: Undo folder copy loses files put in folder

    Ok, found a SERIOUS bug just now in the finder
    1- copy a folder in finder
    2- from inside a program, move or save a file into the new finder
    3- in finder, undo the copy of the folder
    the finder will remove the folder that was created without checking to see if any files have been put in that folder.
    the files COMPLETELY disappear. I have just lost images from a shoot for the first time... EVER.
    serious, serious, serious bug.
    I don't have much hope, but does anyone know where these files may actually be? It seems like they're just gone

    *INexpert advice:* Buyer beware
    In lieu of better advice:
    Do you have back ups of the media?
    If you can't re-import them from the media source,
    before you muck about too much, try & recover the lost data off your computer!
    If you can't get it off your machine, & have wiped the media card,
    you may still be able to recover from the media card using one of several utilities if you haven't overwritten there.
