Which Library am I viewing?

I have multiple libraries for iPhoto. When I have a library open, the title at the top says "iPhoto". How do I get it to tell me the title of the library?

Chims:
Use the free version of iPhoto Library Manager to manage your libraries. It will show the library name in the top frame of iPhoto and makes it so much easier to move between libraries. The paid version will let you copy events or albums between libraries while keeping the keywords, comments and titles intact. I manage over 10 libraries that way.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) 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 created 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • I have multiple iPhoto libraries and when I selecting which library to view (hold down 'option' key and launch iPhoto from the dock) it automatically closes another open apps window eg. Chome, Word. 1 app closes every time I launch iPhoto this way.

    I have multiple iPhoto libraries on my Macbook Air 10.7.5 and when I am selecting which library to view (hold down 'option' key and launch iPhoto from the dock) it automatically closes another open application window eg. Chome, Word. 1 app closes every time I launch iPhoto this way.

    If you're pushing Option at the exact moment you're clicking the Dock icon, it's supposed to do that. Wait until just after clicking it.

  • HT1391 I have accidantally created anoth iTunes library file and ripped a lot of music in it. Than I discovered that this music was not arrived in one library file. Know I would like to merge all my music in one library file but don't see which library is

    Hi,
    Regarding my Itunes library:
    I'll try to explain my situation  (sorry for my english).
    I have a networkdrive where all my music is stored on. Itunes is installed on my macbook and I entered the network drive as my media file location. 
    I use my macbook to rip music and buy itunes music assuming it will all be placed in the media folder that I once entered.
    Recently I found out that itunes had changed the location of my media folder to the local drive.
    Since a time now (I can't exactly say when) I'm ripping many of my music collection to itunes.
    Today i discovered the change of my media file location by itunes after I ripped some collections. When clicking the info button on some of the ripped files I see that they are not stored on my networkdrive, very normal, since the location of the media file is changed to local computer.
    When I look in the finder I can find a local libray file (xml file) from 13 april and also one on my network drive but the date is from March. So this one is even older.
    I suppose that the libray file is updated each time I add a song in itunes. So there must be anonther library file somewhere?
    Is there a way to see which libarary file is used in itunes? I know you can start Itunes with the option key to select another library file but is it also possible to view in itunes which library file is used so I can consult the path of the library file in use?
    What should i do to put all the local music to to my network drive and update the correct library to the new location of these files?
    Why is there no alert when Itunes changes the location of the media files path?
    Thanks

    hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music'  then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

    No. Frequently the apps take up more storage space on the iPod that the file download size.

  • Identifying which library you are in

    HI All
    I run two libraries on my windows 7  pc, all was well with this until Apple upgraded..yuk!  In the old, and Oh so much better, version of itunes you could see which library you were working in as its name was at the top of the screen.  Not anymore.  Other than gonig through content and playlists is there any other way of showing which library I am working in.
    All help is greatly appreciated.
    Annie.

    Hello there Annie,
    To verify which library you have opened, you can use this information to open the specific library you want.

    Steps to create or choose a different iTunes Library file
    If iTunes is running, quit iTunes.
    If you are using Windows, hold down the Shift key and from the Start menu and choose All Programs > iTunes > iTunes.
    If you are using the Mac, open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option key.
    You should see one of the following screens:
    Additional information
    If you do not see one of the screens above, then you did not hold the correct key at the correct time. You may want to try again. Note that if you pinned iTunes to the Start menu programs, and open it that way, it may not work.

  • The calendar week view on my iphone 4s starts on a Sunday.  I am synching with outlook on my computer which starts the week view on a Monday which I prefer.  How do I change my iphone calendar view to start the week on a Monday?

    The calendar week view on my iphone 4s starts on a Sunday.  I am synching with outlook on my computer (pc)  which starts the week view on a Monday which I prefer.  How do I change my iphone calendar view to start the week on a Monday?  I am in Australia.
    I have just noticed the other discussion points - mine is set to Australia. 
    Dear Apple - as the day that the week starts on can depend on country and religion - how about making it an option that the user can change????

    I believe the week view on the iPhone is handled by the Region settings in the phone. I am not aware of any other manner to change it, as you can with Outlook.

  • How can I know which library to include in jdev. if I know method of it

    Hi,
    Say I have a interface statement 'CallableStatement' in my java program and I want to know which library I need to include in jdeveloper project so that I can use this in my program.
    Actually If I include all the libraries then it works but I don't know which library is the actual real library.
    Can somebody refer me any website or tool or method to know such thing.
    ( like in oracle we have sql statement like 'desc plsqlPackageName' which described all the functions/procedures it supports)
    Best Regards
    Anurag

    There are a number of standard classes around. JDev helps you on all that are configured for your project.
    If it is not there, chances are that Google will help you rather quick. Also jarscan is a good bet, too.
    BTW, CallableStatement is part of the java.sql package which is standard since JDK 1.4.2.

  • Which library do you want Aperture to use?

    I always get the question "Which library do you want Aperture to use?" when I start Aperture.
    Switch to Library only shows libraries I've used since I started Aperture. The list is empty if I restart Aperture.
    Why?
    I have re-installed Aperture, verified disks and permissions, repaired and rebuilt libraries, but nothing has helped so far.
    I have other issues too that might have connection to this one. See http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2559320&tstart=0 for a description.
    Thanks!

    Not too sure what is causing this for you, however here is a work around.
    Place your library in the dock and rather than launching Aperture via the Ap icon, click on the library icon, this additionally has the benefit of making it easy to choose which library you would like to open.
    Some more questions for you;
    1. Are you logged in to your Mac with an administrator account?
    2. Is Aperture sitting at the top level of the Applications directory?
    3. Get info on your System and library drives, in sharing and permissions do you have read and write privileges?
    4. Where is your library located, is it outside the "Users" folder structure? Aperture defaults to placing it within the picture folder for a user, this folder will not be available with full privileges to all users.

  • Which is better External View OR Database procedure Proxy ?

    Hi Jasmin and Kilian,
    Creation of External View in HANA and consume in ABAP.
    Which is better External View OR Database procedure Proxy.

    Hi Pravin,
    that depends on your application logic and use case. There is no general recommendation for one or the other.
    If, for instance, you have input parameters, you would go for a DB procedure proxy, since the external view does not allow to pass input parameters from the ABAP to the HANA column view.
    On the other hand, if you would like to consume the result in an ALV with integrated data access (the "next generation ALV"), you would rather go for an external view... so - like the answer to so many other questions - it depends... .

  • Cannot repair Aperture Library, "which library do you want to use"

    When I open Aperture and hold down the option key I keep getting prompted for "which library do you want to use"
    and it lists my current library and two backup with a , .BAK extension on two different disks.
    So I cannot get to the repair options, I only get  "which library do you want to use".
    How can I get to the repair options?
    much appreciated.

    You need to press the key combination options-command to launch into the Library First Aid Tools:
    Hold down the options key ⌥ and the command key  ⌘ at the same time, while launching Aperture. And keep the keys held down firmly, until you are seeing the Library First Aid panel. Then select "Repair Library" from the panel.
    If you only hold  down the options key  ⌥, you will launch into the Library chooser panel to switch between libraries.
    What is the reason, that you need to repair the Aperture library?

  • How do I find out which library containing Jps-api.jar and Jps-internal.jar

    In project properties->Libraries and Classpath option, I need to add j2ee\home\Jps-api.jar and j2ee\home\Jps-internal.jar but I am not sure which library contains them? Is there a easy way to find what jar files are contained in each Libraries?
    I could have added the jar files directly, but the project will be shared among a team and the path to jar files will be different for everyone.
    Thanks.

    The "BC4J Security" library contains the libs to which you refer.
