Why doesn't iMovie have Aperture as a dropdown choice for photos?  I don't have iPhoto, but it's the only choice I see.  I am using iMovie 11 in Mountain Lion.

This is frustrating.  I don't want to buy iPhoto as well and have another database of my photos eating up SSD space on my MBP.  I have tried dragging photos into my project from Aperture, and that doesn't work either. 

I get Aperture as an option in mine. You just click on the Photo Browser in the Middle Toolbar in iMovie. Aperture should be an option.
First make sure you are looking in the right place, as shown in these pictures.
If you are and it still does not work for you, try trashing the preferences - as explained here.

  • How do I set up for Help with CS5.5? I don't have CS6 but that is the only thing I seem to be able to get help on.

    When I select Help from the toolbar, I get more help than I ever imagined, for versions I don't have. How do I narrow it down to JUST the version I have?

    Any devices connected to the same icloud account can sync all the data on that account.  For this reason an icloud account is really for a single user.
    On a mac, if each user has their own account, then the itunes for that mac account should be set up to connect to that user's icloud account (System preferences>icloud).

  • Why doesn't firefox have a "print" button in the tool bar and why can't I add attachments to my emails MOST of the time. It only works rarely?? Frustrating!

    I cannot find an add on as a print button for the firefox toolbar. Almost every time I want to print, I have to copy and then open a document and paste it there to be able to print it.
    Also, each time I want to add an attachment to an email, it rarely lets me. I have to open internet explorer and go through my email that way to be able to add attachments.

    1. File > Print <br />

    Considering that Firefox doesn't do email, that problem is probably caused by your webmail portal software not being totally compatible with Firefox. If you tell which webmail service you use maybe another user who is familiar with that service can help you.

  • Designing websites -- what code do I need to add to allow a pop behind window to open from one of my webpages? I have code, but Firefox is the only browser that won't pop behind. It pops on top instead. That's not what I want.

    I have designed websites, and would like a pop under (new window) to be displayed BEHIND the current/open window. I have code that does this on all browsers except firefox. For some reason, Firefox insists on opening up the new window on top of the active browser window session. It covers the entire page. Reason is because I purposely have a new full-size window opening BEHIND the open browser. Is there some code I can add to my web page script that forces the new window to open up BEHIND the active/open browser, specific to firefox?

  • Why Doesn't Adobe Have a Cool Logo to Use?

    I was looking for the "official" Adobe logo to place on my Photoshop portfolio with tagline "Built with Adobe" and can't seem to figure out what is their logo and where to download it.
    The image searches all look like knockoffs.
    Apple on the other hand, has the Iconic Finder face and Apple logos everywhere...does Adobe frown on people using their logo — why isn't it easily available (or am I somehow missing it)?
    Where is it?

    I agree about the Apple sticker. I have two in the side windows of my Bug. Actually they're more of an "ice breaker" than they are a way of saying Made on a Mac. My VW was made on an assembly line in Wolfsburg, Germany, but people see the stickers and they say, "Hey, I just switched to Mac!" And even if they don't know about forty-year-old air cooled german cars, they have something to talk about with me. Come to think of it, I can't recall ever seeing a "Windows XP" or "Vista" sticker anywhere but on the tower of a PC loaded with it. I've seen a few HP stickers, but they were on company cars, so I doubt it was solely product pride.
    Here's a good example of why I don't stick logos on stuff anymore. The last four sites I built for people, I told them how I was going to be using CSS for layout design, PHP for their contact forms, Javascripts, and whatever else I was building. All fourof them said, "I don't know anything about any of that stuff. That's why you're building it and I'm not. They didn't really care if I built it on my MacBook or my Toshiba laptop, they didn't really care if I hand wrote the code, or if I  let Dreamweaver do most of the back end work. As long as it looked right when I was done and they got a good place in a Google search, none of it mattered to any of them. As long as the header logo matched the company logo, they didn't care if I used Fireworks, Photoshop, or Corel Draw to put it together.
    99% of the people you meet won't give a crap one way or another what you use to make what they want. As long as you make it the way they want, that's all that matters. My mother is a painter. She doesn't affix little stickers to her artwork with the labels from the paint and brushes she used. The people she paints for don't want or need to know what she used. They want their paintings. Can you imagine if McDonald's put little lettuce, tomato and beef stickers on your burger telling you what brand they used to make your lunch?
    Steve Jobs has always had a different apporach to things than Bill Gates. That's why you pay less for OS X, (and there's only ONE version of it) than you do for Windows (which has anywhere from five to seven different builds). OS X doesn't require a product key and have a strictly enforced limit of five installs per disc, including reinstalls on the same system. And you can loan your OS X disc to a friend without having to call Apple for permission to install it first. I prefer OS X to Windows. I prefer iWork to Office. I prefer Photoshop to Paint or Corel Draw. But I'm not going to proclaim it to people who don't care. Here is about the only place I'll even mention it, unless someone brings it up in conversation.

  • Why doesn't PS have auto-recover?

    This is probably the one thing about PS that bugs the crap out of me. If Photoshop crashes while you are working something, it is lost forever. I was working on a digital painting a couple of days ago, and I went to save it, and PS crashed.
    Every other program (Word, Powerpoint, Excel etc.) has an auto-save/auto-recover feature. Why doesn't PS have one? It seems silly for it not to.

    This has been discussed in several other threads, so do a search. As far as I'm concerned any such request doesn't make sense given how PS currently works and how the file format is structured. There's simply no realistic and safe way to save potentially large files in a few (micro-)seconds before a crash nor would that work as an auto-backup. Too many external factors and constant disk activity would have other negative side-effects... If you get my meaning: It's one thing to save a few kilobytes from a Word document in a few blips, but a totally different one shuffling around gigabytes.

    Why doesn't apple have a file of events that ties to the iCal program and the Address book file? By having that relationship it seems that you could call up all of the events tied to a customer while in the address book or likewise call up all of the events tied to a contact that was in the iCal program as a scheduled meeting.

    For one thing, true call blocking (ie. where the call NEVER actually connects through to your number) can only be done by the service provider at their switches.
    The best a device can do is allow the call to connect, and then use the caller ID information to compare that to a list of allowed and a list of disallowed caller IDs.  That is a feature known as blacklisting, but it is not the same as actually blocking a call completely.
    So as suggested, contact your carrier and ask what they can do for you.

  • Why doesn't Apple have a insurance program to cover stolen devices

    Why doesn't Apple have a insurance program to cover stolen devices?
    As a apple customer I feel that is very important that we are  offered some type of insurance plan to cover our devices if it is stolen besides the AppleCare which is offered that only cover software issues. We as consumers spending hundreds to thousands of dollars on our devices and if it is stolen we are not compensated for it at all which I think is totally unfair. We the consumer put our lives and in some cases our life savings into our devices and this should be taking into consideration By implementing a  insurance plan which allows consumers to choose the type of coverage plans allows the customer to feel more secure with there purchase.

    Well...   Usually the deductible is high enough to make it barely worth the claim.  Once you claim you may also find your insurance rates go up for several years.  The rule of thumb is don't claim unless you're talking at least $1000.  In that regard it could be useful if somebody offered separate insurance, though I suspect one might wonder why one was paying $50 or whatever per year for insurance on a single item versus just paying a bit more for a lower deductible on the homeowner's that would cover a host of items.
    Qbangz:  I have almost always had renter's insurance or the equivalent, even when I stayed in a dorm at college.  If somebody decides not to have it then that's a personal choice, but it is available.

  • Why doesn't iPhones have go keyboard

    Why doesn't iPhones have go keyboard

    Unless Apple decides to incorporate it with the iPhone and other iOS devices, 3rd party apps don't have access to private iPhone API's for security and other reasons which Google is clueless about with Android. The most insecure mobile operating system by far.
    Apple plans to incorporate some of that under iOS 8.

    Dear  MAC-Friends.
    PLEASE HELP ME.
    I am extremely afraid to do something wrong - what will be a failure so I loose all the photos I had in my iphoto library before installing the Mountain Lion.
    I have just installed the MOUNTAIN-LION and now I can´t use my Iphoto-programme without answering the following question:
    Choose another Library ?  ( But I only want the choose the photos which one was in the old iPhoto-Library and not the other photos on the MAC-computer ? ).
    and the other possibility is:
    Create a new Libray ! Which iPhoto-library  ?
    And why create a new and to risq to loose the old photos.
    PLEASE HELP ME.
    Kind regards  FINN GRABOWSKI

    Ok. Let me first ask you, do you have any backups of your files - for example, do you use Time Machine or any other backup system?
    Next, quit iPhoto. In the Finder, go to your Pictures folder. Is there a file there called iPhoto.Library? How large is it? (If it doesn't show the size, click once on it, click cmd-I to see the information). If it's a healthy size (ie, several GB), then that should be your library, and you can double-click it to launch iPhoto. (The application will remember where your library is next time, you can just launch iPhoto normally).
    If that's not the right file, check your Trash. Is there anything in there?

  • Why doesn't my itunes on my windows pc load on my apple tv?  Home sharing is turned on and my ipad can see it!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Intermittent problems
    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.
    Consistent Problems
    A frequent cause of consistent failure to enable AirPlay or HomeSharing at all, is the service being blocked on the network. Make sure your network isn't hidden, has a unique name, that MAC address authentication is disabled, security is set to use WPA 2 Personal and that there is only one router/device acting as a DHCP server and providing NAT services.
    Make sure your router/computer allows access over the following ports
    Port
    Type
    Protocol
    Used By
    80
    TCP

    49163
    UDP
    MDNS (Win)
    Bonjour/AirPlay
    Refer to your router manual/manufacturer for any settings that are specific to that model.
    Another frequent cause of consistent failure to enable AirPlay or HomeSharing at all, is security software, in many cases configuring it correctly, disabling it or even uninstalling it can help, but in some cases the security software can cause problems that simply reconfiguring, disabling or uninstalling cannot reverse.
    If you are consistently unable to activate AirPlay, have tried all the steps in this article and have security software installed on your system, you might benefit from contacting its provider or participating in any online forums they run to discuss the matter with them.

    Hi there,
    Wondering if you might know?  I don't have enough space to update the new software on iPad.  So my facetime isn't working anymore, this is prob why. Seems I have to delete like all the games/apps we have to do so.  Will I lose the progress data/levels in the games? But how do I back up the games data?
    Please help.  Scared to delete them to update and then not have the space to restore them and if I get them again will the levels/progress be gone?
    Thanks Rachel

    Connect your device to iTunes and do the update through iTunes. Using a computer takes much less space on your device than doing the update on your device.
