Why do thumbnail images revert to old image when I delete them and paste a different image?
I press ⌘I to "Get Info" on a file in my finder window and the info window appears. The file is an MKV file for a movie. I dragged an image of a movie poster I got online to the info window so that it would take the place of the default icon (which is just a traffic cone). It worked fine (we'll refer to this image as the "old image"). But now I have changed my mind and would like to use a different image.
So I delete the "old image" (and now the traffic cone is back). Now, I drag a new image to same spot in the info window and now the "old image" comes back. It does this every time.
I even dragged a new image w/ out deleting the "old image" to the same spot in the info window and it didn't work (you can do this in the info window of an iTunes song and it will work).
Any ideas?
Disconnect all devices from the computer then do the following:
Boot up from your Snow Leopard Install DVD while holding down the "c" key.
Select the language you wish to use, and then choose "Disk Utility" from the menu bar.
Your HD should appear in a panel on the left hand side of the window which opens. Select it and then click on the "repair disk" button in the right hand section of the window.
Once this process has been completed restart your computer and repair permissions directly from Disk Utility.
If Disk Utility is unable to complete the repair, you will need to use a stronger 3rd party utility like DiskWarrior, Techtool PRO (not Deluxe) or Drive Genius.
Changing your image working now?

I am trying to connect a Macbook Pro to a projector for a Powerpoint presentation. When I use a VGA cable, the color of the projected images are not good. When I use a USB cable, the projected image includes the presenter notes on my computer screen?
To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
and select the Library that you moved. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
Your first option didn't work because you imported one Library to another. Every version and thumbnail is imported like a distinct photo, you lose all your Albums, Keywords etc., the link between Original and Previews is destroyed, the non-destructive editing feature is ruined and so on. In summary: it's mess.
Your second option didn't work because you simply referenced her library on the old machine.

How can I synchronize my iPhoto events? my iTunes doesn't read them and with the app Images in the iPad I can only find Photos, Albums, Faces and Places, not Events.
I had a problem a couple of months ago when iPhotos suddenly rearranged the order of my Events (Why won't iPhoto let me arrange my photos?) . I was told "Use albums not events - events are not a good way to organize - albums and folder are designed for organisation and are very flexible".
Haha! I should have paid attention and read between the lines! My iPhotos were highly organised groupings - not according to date but the way I wanted them - and it was so easy to do! I see now that if I had them all in albums, as per the Apple Apologist suggestion, I wouldn't have this unholy mess I have been left with just to make iPhone & iCloud users happy. I am now going through Photos and making Albums (of what used to be in my Events) ... maybe I'll get this finished before they do another non user friendly update! -
Sup buddies,
How can I control what images load on my project to save preload time and avoid loading all images, elements, divs not yet visible?
As the project grows in size the load time increases. How does one control not loading all images ,divs,elements etc. until they're
needed on the timeline? For example some sections are off and only become visible when recalled. My projects slowly grow in size so loading
all images , is counter productive . My other option would be to create separate htmls but that breaks the seamless user experience .
TY...Over N Out...hello, kiwi
quote: "Is there an easy way to burn a completed project to DVD, but keep only the (lo res, lo size) previews on my hard drive?"
yes.
maybe,...
1. you might think of making DVD backups first prior to importing the photos into Aperture. "Store Files: In their current location" once in Aperture make low rez Previews, and export finished Project.
or,
2. bring in the photographs to hard drive first prior to importing the photos into Aperture. "Store Files: In their current location" once in Aperture make low rez Previews, and export finished Project.
the low rez Previews will stay in Aperture but the high quality Versions will be exported onto DVDs and gone from the hard drive (if you delete the originals).
another way would be to export small about 50-70 pixel wide high quality jpegs to a folder on your Desktop and import & keep these in Aperture Library as a reference. make metadata to show where the original Project DVDs are stored and DVD filing system used.

I have apps from old work account that I can't remember the password to. On my personal phone those apps keep showing up but I can't update them because I can't remember the password. How can I delete them and download on my new account?
Tap and hold an app until they all start jiggling and an X appears in the icon's top left corner. One by one tap the X to delete the app. when they are all gone you are free to buy them again with your own account.

Why do my documents disappear on my device when I delete my iCloud account?
Why do my documents disappear on my iPad when I delete my iCloud account. I don't want to sync all the aps from my iPhone to my iPad, so I deleted my iCloud account on my iPad, but all my documents disappeared from my iPad. How can I get them back??
To access documents in the cloud, the iCloud account needs to be setup.
If you don't want all apps to automatically sync to your iPad, just turn that option off in Settings > Store -
mayday....I inadvertly erased my contacts when I deleted them from my old phone and now my contacts in my new phone is empty.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Do you have a back up taken prior to deleting them.
To restore from a back up made through iTunes, follow these instructions.
To restore from a back up made through iCloud, try the following:
The difficulty in restoring iCloud data from a back up is that the back up is older than the current version on iCloud and anything that is restored gets removed again when an iCloud sync occurs.
Ensure the device is connected to your local network.
Start the restore from iCloud back up.
Allow the devices settings to restore (watch for the confirmation of completion).
As the apps begin to restore pull the connection to your router WAN port (the one that goes to the telephone point).
Wait for the time out confirmation.
Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn off contact syncing (keep contacts when prompted).
Reconnect the router to the internet and let the restore process complete.
Delete any iCloud contacts from iCloud.com on a computer.
Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn on contact syncing (merge contacts when prompted).
May I suggest that you carry out a back up to iTunes before you try anything, that way should things become even worse, you can at least restore back to where you are now. -
Why did the # of images in my catalog double when I 'Moved' them in LR from one ext. drive to a 2nd?
Hi,
I'm running LR 3.4 64bit on a PC. My external drive starting generating error messages so I went out a purchased a 2nd external drive (3TB Seagate) to migrate my image Catalog over. Within LR's Import dialog screen I selected the Source drive (old; error-generating drive) and the Destination as my new drive. I ensured that Move was selected (vs. Copy or New).
I had on the order of 50k images. This morning I checked my catalog and the files appear to have moved over just fine. However, now the image count is >100k!
Any ideas on 1) what I did wrong, 2) what steps I can take to 'de-duplicate' the images in my catalog without manually going through?
Thanks in advance!
MachabaI notice it that users often use the Import feature in LR incorrectly. That creates a lot of problems.
The Import feature is for images that are NOT yet in LR. Only when - for some reasons - you want the same images twice in LR you use the Import and un-check the "Do not import suspected duplicates".
In your case you must have un-checked the "Do not import suspected duplicates" -box in the Import dialog.
As the previous poster already noted the best way to move whole folders or even drives of images is to move them in your OS.
In LR you then get a question mark besides the folder where the photos previously were.
Just right-click the folder with the question mark and point LR to the new location - that's all.
But you imported and now all images show twice.
If your images are all on the new HD (check if they are all there!), right-click the top-most image folder on your "old" HD and select "Remove". This will remove the folder from LR but will not delete your images. LR should then show only 1 set of images on your new HD.

Why CBO don't use function-base index when I use like and bind variable
Hello
I have litle problem with function-base index and like with bind variable.
When I use like with bind variable, the CBO don't use my function-base index.
For example when I create table and index:
ALTER SESSION SET NLS_SORT='BINARY_CI';
ALTER SESSION SET NLS_COMP='LINGUISTIC';
alter session set nls_language='ENGLISH';
-- DROP TABLE TEST1;
CREATE TABLE TEST1 (K1 VARCHAR2(32));
create index test1_idx on test1(nlssort(K1,'nls_sort=BINARY_CI'));
INSERT INTO TEST1
SELECT OBJECT_NAME FROM ALL_OBJECTS;
COMMIT;
When I run:
ALTER SESSION SET NLS_SORT='BINARY_CI';
ALTER SESSION SET NLS_COMP='LINGUISTIC';
SELECT * FROM TEST1 WHERE K1 = 'abcd';
or
SELECT * FROM TEST1 WHERE K1 LIKE 'abcd%';
CBO use index.

but when I run

What should I change to force CBO to use index.
I don't wont use index hint in query.
