Where is your iPhoto library? I can't find it

By default the Library is in your Pictures Folder. It's a Package - so it looks like a single file in the Finder.

Hello! I have one iTunes library on my iPod and one iTunes library on my computer. When I connect my iPod touch to my PC, however, I cannot find any files in my iPod except for pictures. How can I find the music files so I can add them to my iTunes?

You can't do that.
And before you decide to store any music that you own on a computer at work, talk to your IT department. Many organizations do not permit it for legal reasons. Standard policies are that anything stored on company owned computers is the property of the company. It could not be legally stored on their machines unless you transfer the licenses and all copies, physical and digital, to the company, meaning you no longer own the music. If they were to be audited and could not prove that they own the music, they would be subject to copyright violation penalties. Just use your iPod when you're at the office if you want to listen to music.

Where are my pictures stored on the hard drive when I import them into Aperture?

I imported pictures into Aperature under the project name Christmas 2012. When I went into Finder to see where the pictures were actually placed on my hard disk, the folder didn't show up anywhere. These are new photos that I added to my hard drive.
I then thought I would do a file search on some of the photos. One picture's file name was IMG_2260. When I searched All My Files for this file, it produced two different photos with the exact same file name IMG_2260!
Now I'm really confused! Any help would be appreciated.

. It just seems strange to me to not be able to find the actual photos with Finder.
The actual photos do not exist as image files, until you export them. The only images that do exist are the originals that you import into Aperture. When you adjust images, enhance them, crop them, Aperture will only store the command, but not actually create the edited version.
That has three advantages:
Aperture saves space, because only the original image is stored.
Aperture can easily undo any operation and you have a lossless workflow.
Many adjustments can be accumulated into one operation and done very precisely, because the image need not to be rendered to 8Bit or 16 Bit versions in between. Only the final version needs to be encoded as image file.
So, since the edited images do only exist in a state of limbo, you do not see them in the library as images.

When you search for the originals with Spotlight or file search from the Finder, you may find the originals and previews of edited versions, that Aperture creates to share with the Media Browser. In addition to exporting the images, you can access them using the Media Browser from all applications that are compatible with iLife: Mail, Pages, Keynote, iWeb, ...

Where are Recent Pictures Stored in Settings Users & Groups?

I'm trying to clear the tiles of recently used pictures - how can I do this?

Found it!

Where are image files stored for tiled backgrounds in the templates?

I am working with a template, but wanted to change the image that is set to tile in the background of one of the text boxes. I wanted to use another image that is set to tile in a different box, but I cannot locate this image. When changing the image on the Image Fill, after I click Choose, I need to point to an image file - anyone know where these images that are in the templates are stored?

The files are located in the theme package that's located in the iWeb application: iWeb/Contents/Resources/Themes folder. From there you find the theme, open the package and drill down till you find the image files. You will have to use Quickview to locate the one you want.
What theme are you using?

I recently installed vista to my mac (32bit)...my headphones are not working. I can't find the 3.5mm jack that apple suggests using. I have tried installing/unistalling several different audio drivers. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

I recently installed vista to my mac (32bit). My headphones are not working on it. I could not find the "3.5mm jack" that apple suggests to "solve" this issue. And I have tried installing/uninstalling audio drivers. Can anyone help?

you don't need several drivers, you just need the audio driver for your Mac, which you didn't list, but would be Cirrus or RealTek.
Along with uninstalling programs, go to Dev Manager and uninstall driver, or even rollback driver.
some people have trouble installing or finding driver that will install.

Where are downloaded files stored; how can i copy them

i can't figure out how to do anything with files downloaded in firefox other than open and copy them.
they do not drag and drop.
they do not seem to attach to emails.

I am a Windows user. Not certain Macs are the same but do you get an option to open a containing folder/'''show in finder'''. My files are shown in the firefox download manager, that is not the actual location of the files, they are in another folder. (a folder of my choice)

I can't find the Foundation Pack 11.1.1.4.0 demo

Hi,
I installed Foundation Pack(FP) 11.1.1.4.0 for Linux x86 according to the following installation and upgrade guide.
For installation option I chose the "Complete Install".
Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation and Upgrade Guide for Oracle Application Integration Architecture
Foundation Pack 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.4.0) Part Number E17949-02
After completing the installation I can't find the directory $AIA_HOME/samples.
In the installation guide of the FP 11.1.1.2.0, there is the chapter about deploying FP demo.
But there isn't it in the installation and upgrade guide FP 11.1.1.4.0.
Oracle Application Integration Architecture Foundation Pack 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.2.0): Installation Guide Release 1 (11.1.1.2.0) Part No. E17360-01
Isn't the demo originally included in FP 11.1.1.4.0?

Where can I find the file where the static mapping allocations of the DHCP server are stored?

In our company we are using DHCP to assign static ip addresses to our clients.
Now we are forced to change the ip address range. To prevent changing each allocation
of mac-address to ip-address manually with the admin tool i would like to change the allocation
in the file where the allocations are saved. The reason ist that i just have to use copy & paste for all
the allocations.
So how is the file named and where can I find the file where
the static mapping allocations of the DHCP server are stored? Is it just an ASCII file?
Must i note anything when i change the file manually?

From man bootpd:
BOOTP/DHCP STATIC BINDINGS
     Static IP address to ethernet address bindings are stored in the /etc/bootptab file and in Open Directory. Bindings specified in the /etc/bootptab file take precedence over those in Open Directory.
     See bootptab(5) for more information about the /etc/bootptab file.
     For Open Directory, bootpd looks at the /Computers records for the following properties:
/etc/bootptab is a standard text file, while the records in Open Directory can be manipulated either through the command line, or via Workgroup Manager.

The pictures are there, but can't find the library

My primary HD for photos is external, and an iphoto library is there. Took my laptop out of town and loaded photos on it. It created a new library. I cannot figure out, however, where this puppy is stored. It is not in the usr/pictures folder, and neither Finder nor Spotlight turn up albumdata.xml, or library6 etc files. There is no iphoto folder, or original folder found by either spotlight or finder.
iphoto loads fine and all the new photos are there, imovie finds the photos, iweb finds the photos. I, however, can't find the 1.3 Gig of photos so that I can merge the libraries.
I have tried the apple-option start up and rebuilt the library. I have repaired the permissions on the HD. I loaded a number of new photos this morning, and then searched on Finder to see where the file was modified. No luck and I am out of ideas.
Yes I have exported to a temporary folder on the external drive, but I don't want to lose 1.3 gigs of HD space having duplicate pictures. If I re-direct the library to the external drive, without knowing where the new library is, I won't be able to delete the duplicate library. I don't know how to turn on a view for hidden folders, if that is the issue. There is only one user account on this computer, so that is not an issue.
Any thoughts out there? Thanks.

Select a photo in the iPhoto window and right click (or control-click) and select show file.
A Finder window will open with the file selected. If you switch to Column view you'll be able to see where the file is located easily.

Where are printer drivers stored in OS 10.8?

I am trying to set up a Epson Stylus Photo R3000 as a new printer on OS 10.8. The printer setup locates the printer and automatically selects Epson Stylus R3000 with the notation "The selected printer software is available from Apple. Click Add to download and add this printer." However, clicking on Add leads eventually to an error message: "Can't install the software for the EPSON Epson Stylus Photo R3000 because it is not currently available fromthe Software Update server." This result blocks me from setting up the printer.
I know the driver is part of the Epson driver software package that is installed with OS 10.8. I would like to select it manually. My question is where are printer drivers stored? How do I select a driver?
Thanks in advance!

While a bit of a stretch, you can download the entire Epson printer package from Apple and install it. This will include all drivers for all Epson devices as opposed to the one just for your system. The package is 1GB in size, but will include everything supported.
The package can be downloaded here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1398
This following knowledgebase article says your printer is definitely supported, so the driver should be in that package: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669#epson

The iPhoto library should be in your user folder/Pictures unless it was moved.

It sounds like you are using an application to import. You can do it manually.
Start > Computer (on the right) > scroll to the bottom and you will see your iPhone under Portable Devices > Open it and you will see a Drive, open that and there will be a DCIM folder. That is where your photos will be (There may be other folders each holding photos).
