Why offer less functionality than iPhoto?

It seems like this new app offers less functionality than iPhoto, save for its photo-manipulation tools. I can't edit location data, half of the toolbar options are greyed-out and inaccessible, I can't adjust the sort order, there are no events or ways at least to adjust where one moment begins and another ends. More and more Photos is revealing itself to be still quite in the beta stage and was released prematurely, which is odd for Apple, who I feel normally is highly concerned with the details. When I view imported photos in moments on my iPhone, the time stamps are incorrect, and it appears that photos are in the order of their last-edited time rather than when they were shot, which completely contrasts with the whole idea of moments. The hidden photos album and the way its "hidden" is nice, but I feel the lack of a standard "trash" or "deleted" area is cumbersome. Half the time when editing a photo the changes don't go into effect, and there's no way to access the original through finder. I simply don't understand why it appears this unnecessary, albeit beautiful, app was rushed out the door.

Have you tried to return functionality to iPhoto in your computer? If the application is still
in the OS X applications, you may be able to still use it. Depending on how you upgraded
to Yosemite, will have some bearing on the fate of iPhoto. The App Store does not have it
and the last iPhoto version would've had to be updated to in Mavericks or pre OS X 10.10.
A full system clone of the previous OS X and its applications suite allows one to run it from
another partition or a different drive. Sadly, these ideas arrive too late or without sufficient
information to initiate the process early and save this option before it evaporates.
In my opinion, reliance on the Cloud is akin to vaporware; if you cannot retain an offline
archive of your images in several reliable repositories where they may be kept available
to the owner, without paying a storage fee to an unknown entity at some untold distance
then some of your ownership rights are lost and you have to pay to use it, too.
Before upgrading to a later version of an operating system it is always wise to have a backup
that actually can run the computer in the older operating system, with all its applications...
Though upgrades can be a good thing, some don't realize an upgrade goes beyond update.
To see your created content be divorced from your control is not a great way to find this out.
So this is a cautionary tale, to backup well beyond the basic Time Machine, since you may
not be able to restore a fully working system if you haven't an online recovery method to
get the main segments; unless you saved them ahead of time in an archive you control.
PS: basic photo editing such as graphic converter, toyviewer, and other software can be
helpful to modify and process images; & can do more than they appear. Inexpensively.
In any event...
Good luck & happy computing!

  • Why does the 1d have less megapixels than 5d

    Can anyone tell my why Canon's flagship camera always has less megapixels than the next tier lower?  I.E - the current 1DX has 18.1 MPS, and the 5DIII has 22.3?

    Agreeing with what Cioppo said.
    Note that Nikon's big flagship camera, the D4, only has 16.1 mp.
    Jamming too many photosites onto at sensor creates noise problems, but unfortunately the public sees MP as a quick reference number to judge one camera vs. another.  Like "horsepower" on a car, or something.
    I think Canon's marketing needs to come up with a simple-sounding metric for signal to noise ratio or maximum high-quality ISO and start plastering it all over its advertizing and its camera boxes.  Just keep it simple, so John O. Public will sieze on it like they currently do with megapixels.

  • Why are you trying to force us into new plans that cost more and offer less?

    My wife and I are long term customers on a grandfathered Family Share Plan (2 lines with unlimited data, 1000 texts each, and 500 shared minutes). Now that my children are getting older I am ready to get them their own mobile phones; however, you won't allow me to add them to our existing plan (even if those new lines do not include a data package).  As recently as a few months ago I could have added a new line (talk only) for $9.99 per month. After an hour of discussion with your loyalty-program service rep, the only options offered to me were 1) give up the old plan and have all of us forced into a new one that will cost more while offering us significantly less, or 2) keep the existing plan for my wife and me and start a new "family" plan for my children (which,again, will be more expensive while offering less).  It would be much more convenient for all of us to be on the same plan with the same provider, but you are not allowing that to happen. Your customer service representative acknowledged multiple times that I have been a long term loyal customer -- but if you don't reciprocate that loyalty then I also am a misguided fool who is allowing you to take advantage of me. So now I will have to start investigating mobile service alternatives for my children; given the lack of loyalty that you have shown me thus far, l guess it's time to see what your competitors have to offer.

    I could do the same.  I believe you had possibly an older plan than what I had that allowed more than 3 lines.  I remember specifically being kicked back an error and telling me to move to the 1400 minute plan as that was the only one that support 3 or more lines.
    Too bad I don't have screenshots of it.  I purge my screenshots when making changes to anything on line for verification.

    The question is no longer if, but when you'll move your backup-and-recovery storage to the cloud.
    As a genius IT pro, you know you can't afford to ignore cloud as a solution for your backup-and-recovery woes: exponential data growth, runaway costs, legacy systems that can't keep pace. Public or private clouds offer near-infinite scalability, deliver dramatic cost reductions and promise the unparalleled efficiency you need to compete in today's 24/7/365 marketplace.
    Moreover, an ESG study found that backup and archive rank first among workloads enterprises are moving to the cloud.
    Okay, fine. But as a prudent IT strategist, you demand airtight security and complete control over your data as well. Good thinking.
    Hybrid Cloud Strategies Are the Future
    Enterprises, large and small, are searching for the right blend of availability, security, and efficiency. The answer lies in achieving the perfect balance of on-premises, private cloud, and public services to match IT and business requirements.
    To realize the full benefits of a hybrid cloud strategy for backup and recovery operations, you need to manage the dynamic nature of the environment— seamlessly connecting public and private clouds—so you can move your data where and when you want with complete freedom.
    This begs the question of how to integrate these cloud resources into your existing environment. It's a daunting task. And, it's been a roadblock for companies seeking a simple, seamless, and secure entry point to cloud—until now.
    Enter the Game Changer: NetApp AltaVault
    NetApp® AltaVault® (formerly SteelStore) cloud-integrated storage is a genuine game changer. It's an enterprise-class appliance that lets you leverage public and private clouds with security and efficiency as part of your backup and recovery strategy.
    AltaVault integrates seamlessly with your existing backup software. It compresses, deduplicates, encrypts, and streams data to the cloud provider you choose. AltaVault intelligently caches recent backups locally while vaulting older versions to the cloud, allowing for rapid restores with off-site protection. This results in a cloud-economics–driven backup-and-recovery strategy with faster recovery, reduced data loss, ironclad security, and minimal management overhead.
    AltaVault delivers both enterprise-class data protection and up to 90% less cost than on-premises solutions. The solution is part of a rich NetApp data-protection portfolio that also includes SnapProtect®, SnapMIrror®, SnapVault®, NetApp Private Storage, Cloud ONTAP®, StorageGRID® Webscale, and MetroCluster®.

    The NetApp AltaVault Cloud-Integrated Storage Appliance
    Four Ways Your Peers Are Putting AltaVault to Work
    How is AltaVault helping companies revolutionize their backup operations? Here are four ways your peers are improving their backups with AltaVault:
    Killing Complexity. In a world of increasingly complicated backup and recovery solutions, financial services firm Spot Trading was pleased to find its AltaVault implementation extremely straightforward—after pointing their backup software at the appliance, "it just worked."
    Boosting Efficiency. Australian homebuilder Metricon struggled with its tape backup infrastructure and rapid data growth before it deployed AltaVault. Now the company has reclaimed 80% of the time employees formerly spent on backups—and saved significant funds in the process.
    Staying Flexible. Insurance broker Riggs, Counselman, Michaels & Downes feels good about using AltaVault as its first foray into public cloud because it isn't locked in to any one approach to cloud—public or private. The company knows any time it wants to make a change, it can.
    Ensuring Security. Engineering firm Wright Pierce understands that if you do your homework right, it can mean better security in the cloud. After doing its homework, the firm selected AltaVault to securely store backup data in the cloud.
    Three Flavors of AltaVault
    AltaVault lets you tap into cloud economics while preserving your investments in existing backup infrastructure, and meeting your backup and recovery service-level agreements. It's available in three form factors: physical, virtual, and cloud-based.
    1. AltaVault Physical Appliances
    AltaVault physical appliances are the industry's most scalable cloud-integrated storage appliances, with capacities ranging from 32TB up to 384TB of usable local cache. Companies deploy AltaVault physical appliances in the data center to protect large volumes of data. These datasets typically require the highest available levels of performance and scalability.
    AltaVault physical appliances are built on a scalable, efficient hardware platform that's optimized to reduce data footprints and rapidly stream data to the cloud.
    2. AltaVault Virtual Appliances for Microsoft Hyper-V and VMware vSphere
    AltaVault virtual appliances are an ideal solution for medium-sized businesses that want to get started with cloud backup. They're also perfect for enterprises that want to safeguard branch offices and remote offices with the same level of protection they employ in the data center.
    AltaVault virtual appliances deliver the flexibility of deploying on heterogeneous hardware while providing all of the features and functionality of hardware-based appliances. AltaVault virtual appliances can be deployed onto VMware vSphere or Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisors—so you can choose the hardware that works best for you.
    3. AltaVault Cloud-based Appliances for AWS and Microsoft Azure
    For organizations without a secondary disaster recovery location, or for companies looking for extra protection with a low-cost tertiary site, cloud-based AltaVault appliances on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure are key to enabling cloud-based recovery.
    On-premises AltaVault physical or virtual appliances seamlessly and securely back up your data to the cloud. If the primary site is unavailable, you can quickly spin up a cloud-based AltaVault appliance in AWS or Azure and recover data in the cloud. Usage-based, pay-as-you-go pricing means you pay only for what you use, when you use it.
    AltaVault solutions are a key element of the NetApp vision for a Data Fabric; they provide the confidence that—no matter where your data lives—you can control, integrate, move, secure, and consistently manage it.

    Putting AltaVault to Work for You
    Four common use cases illustrate the different ways that AltaVault physical and virtual appliances are helping companies augment and improve their backup and archive strategies:
    Backup modernization and refresh. Many organizations still rely on tape, which increases their risk exposure because of the potential for lost media in transport, increased downtime and data loss, and limited testing ability. AltaVault serves as a tape replacement or as an update of old disk-based backup appliances and virtual tape libraries (VTLs).
    Adding cloud-integrated backup. AltaVault makes a lot of sense if you already have a robust disk-to-disk backup strategy, but want to incorporate a cloud option for long-term storage of backups or to send certain backup workloads to the cloud. AltaVault can augment your existing purpose-built backup appliance (PBBA) for a long-term cloud tier.
    Cold storage target. Companies want an inexpensive place to store large volumes of infrequently accessed file data for long periods of time. AltaVault works with CIFS and NFS protocols, and can send data to low-cost public or private storage for durable long-term retention.
    Archive storage target. AltaVault can provide an archive solution for database logs or a target for Symantec Enterprise Vault. The simple-to-use AltaVault management platform can allow database administrators to manage the protection of their own systems.
    We see two primary use cases for AltaVault cloud-based appliances, available in AWS and Azure clouds:
    Recover on-premises workloads in the cloud. For organizations without a secondary disaster recovery location, or for companies looking for extra protection with a low-cost tertiary site, AltaVault cloud-based appliances are key to enabling cloud-based disaster recovery. Via on-premises AltaVault physical or virtual appliances, data is seamlessly and securely protected in the cloud.
    Protect cloud-based workloads.  AltaVault cloud-based appliances offer an efficient and secure approach to backing up production workloads already running in the public cloud. Using your existing backup software, AltaVault deduplicates, encrypts, and rapidly migrates data to low-cost cloud storage for long-term retention.
    The benefits of cloud—infinite, flexible, and inexpensive storage and compute—are becoming too great to ignore. AltaVault delivers an efficient, secure alternative or addition to your current storage backup solution. Learn more about the benefits of AltaVault and how it can give your company the competitive edge you need in today's hyper-paced marketplace.

    You didn't say what phone you have - but you can set it to update and backup and sync over wifi only - I'm betting that those things are happening "automatically" using your cellular connection rather than wifi.
    I sync my email automatically when I have a wifi connection, but I can sync manually if I need to.  Downloads happen for me only on wifi, photo and video backup are only over wifi, app updates are only over wifi....check your settings.  Another recent gotcha is Facebook and videos.  LOTS of people are posting videos on Facebook and they automatically download and play UNLESS you turn them off.  That can eat up your data in a hurry if you are on FB regularly.

  • Why is illustrator better than corel?

    hello forumers.
    im an illustrator freak,but my annoying boss wants me to learn corel ;-( ,i need some facts why illustrator is better than corel so i can shove his face in it if possible.
    VIVA illi
    thank you very much.

    Do not, I repeat do not, ask James or Scott or Hans.
    Indeed.
    Only ask Jacob, who is still using a four-version out-of-date copy of Illustrator and who tries to personify it as a female idol.
    If the comparison is to be "fair" (which it clearly will not be, at least from your perspective), it should compare Corel Draw X4 to Illustrator CS3 or CS4. Release dates being what they were, X4 would more legitimately be considered Draw's answer to CS3; since it long predates CS4.
    Talking about earlier versions of either program is not very meaningful, except in the sense of history of development. When I compare the release histories of Draw, FreeHand, Canvas, and Illustrator, Illustrator comes in an often-embarrassing last in terms of features long taken-for-granted in other programs.
    im an illustrator freak,but my annoying boss wants me to learn corel...i need some facts [that] I can shove his face..
    Shove in your boss's face? For presenting you an opportunity to escape fearful dependency upon a single software?
    i need the pros and cons...to outline to him why illustrator is better...
    Why don't you simply welcome this opportunity to actually know something about that which you claim a completely bogus "preference"?
    Were you at all interested in gaining input that would help you help your boss reach a rational and objective decision, you would at least describe something about the kind of work your boss pays you to do. What kind of business employs you? Is the Macintosh platform even relevant to your boss's business market? How large a workgroup is affected by the software choice? What kind of artwork does that workgroup produce? How is it delivered? What are its initial content sources? Who are the end-users of the artwork? In how many different ways is it delivered, and in what formats?
    Yet here you are, soliciting predisposed "why Illustrator is 'better' than Draw" advice from a handful of users who, so far, admit themselves having either no, or practically no, experience with Draw! If that's not blind-leading-the-blind, I don't know what is.
    You are by admission predisposed toward Illustrator, even though you are not at all equipped to say why. Reason is pointless with so irrational a mindset. Since no one responding yet seems to actually know anything about Draw, I will instead offer some ammunition I hope your boss uses to see if you are even objective enough to consider it.
    The following is a just-off-the-top list. Should you actually try to counter it, you should be prepared for more:
    General:
    Lower cost, both initially and in upgrades
    Better support for non-current versions
    Faster performance
    Better support for several vertical-market industries (signage, embroidery, engineering-related)
    More robust CAD and more business-centric import/export formats
    Better multiple page implementation
    Better-organized interface
    Highly-customizable workspace
    Features:
    User-defined drawing scales
    Reliable snaps
    Dimension tools
    Callout tools
    Connector lines
    Flowchart Tools
    No-nonsense, 2D vector face extrusion
    Live shape primitives
    Smart Drawing tools (freehand shape recognition)
    Virtual Segment tool
    Ability to properly cut/crop vector and raster content
    Contour tool (multiple parallels)
    Export selection only
    Barcodes
    Print Merge
    Bundle for Output Bureau
    Scan directly into Draw
    Trim (not merely mask) vector artwork to any path
    Fit Text To Path
    Text stats
    Export artwork as Type 1 font.
    Lens Fills (live details)
    Live Perspective
    Object Data (spreadsheet-formatted database of user-defined object data fields)
    Fillet / Chamfer / Scallop
    User-defined Arrowheads
    Shared Features Better Implemented in Draw:
    Mesh Grads
    Dynamic Guides (with increment snaps)
    Independent control over Snaps for Guides, Grid, Objects, Dynamic Grids
    Property Bar (far more sensible and useable than AI's poorly-designed and buggy Control Panel)
    Status Bar with context-sensitive instructions
    Elastic Mode (vs. AI's Reshape tool)
    Add/remove/line/curve/cusp/symmetrical curve commands properly implemented for all nodes (points) in a selected path
    Logarithmic and Symmetrical spirals
    Macro Recording (vs. AI Actions)
    Envelopes (retract envelope handles without wrecking artwork)
    Old-Saw Arguements Based on Overstatement, if not Myths:
    Adobe's cross-app "integration" is more hype than substantive advantage.
    Illustrator's text handing is worst among Adobe apps and worst-of-class among its direct competitors.
    Draw opens and creates PDFs just fine.
    Claims of AI superiority regarding importing of raster images is practically immaterial. In fact, Corel Draw's interaction with Corel PhotoPaint is at least as "smooth and seamless" as AI/PS, if not more so.
    Using vector artwork created in Draw (or any other mainstream Bezier drawing program) in page-layout programs is no more difficult than using AI. This stuff has been being done for decades.
    Again, this is just a beginning. You do yourself a huge disservice by declaring (let alone attempting to defend) a "preference" to the only choice with which you have experience (and evidently only beginning experience at that). That's true regardless of which program you claim to "favor." How can one, with any trace of intellectual honesty, claim to have a "favorite" of anything--when one has no exposure to any of the considered alternatives?
    Since you already have Illustrator, you should absolutely welcome your Boss's willingness to provide you a current copy of Corel Draw. Here's an opportunity for you--at no personal cost--to actually learn something about another program; to potentially have some clue as to what you're talking about when you claim to "prefer" one over the other; to benefit from knowing more than one particular tool, and to overcome the fear of learning your way around more than one offering among similar programs. For all you know, you may be arguing against the program you would actually end up preferring.
    I could also build a bullet list of better-than-Draw AI features. It would not be as long as its opposite. Nor would the AI-favoring listings be as broadly practical.
    Fact is, anyone can build a bullet list to favor any of them. (Just look at the sides of the boxes, or each vendor's self-serving "competitive comparisons" on their respective websites.) Fact is, all of them are really rather mediocre; mostly 20+ years-old technology.
    You really should have no axe to grind in this, unless you can state something specific to your work that strongly favors the relatively few functional advantages of AI.

  • I get an error message when I try to use share function on IPhoto. I get the triangle icon with an exclamation mark inside of it.

    I get an error message when I try to use the share function on iPhoto. When I try to share photos via email a triangle icon with an exclamation mark appears. Why can't I use share function?

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Can I use Adobe Photoshop Element 11 to manage my photos rather than iPhoto?

    What are the problems, if any, with by passing iPhoto and using Adobe Photoshop Elements 11?

    Are you referring to actually managing the image files with the Adobe Elements 11 organizer as well as editing the photos or just use PSE 11 to edit the photos? 
    The latter is easy.  The former would have you abandon iPhoto, move you photos out of it to folders and then manage the folders and their contents.
    What exactly are you wantng to do:  manage and edit or just edit.
    By the way the file management capability of PSE is far less capable than the photo managementcapability of iPhoto which is a DAM (digital asset management) application.

  • Why Annyconecct is better than vpn client ?

    why anyconnect is better than cisco vpn client ?
    what is its advangatges ?
    i think that both are remoteaccess vpn .
    why its better ?

    The other thing is that, Cisco does not support traditional VPN on Windows 8.X.  I have run in to lots of issues trying to install  Cisco VPN client on Windows 8.x clients..  it sometimes work and sometimes it needs registry hacks etc.. really painful setup for the network engineer.  So Anyconnect is preffered.
    Also, since SSL uses port 443/SSL by default,  it does not need any ALG (Application Layer Gateway) functionality in remote end user's routers to operate, and will simply work with normal PAT which is always on..  with traditional IPSec VPN, since it uses ESP, you need to have AGL turned on on the user's GW router (this is normally called IPSec VPN pass through mode) and this sometimes doesn't work the way you want specially on the older residential routers. When this happens you really don't have any other option for those users.. and your only response would be "Sorry your router does not support this kind of VPN  or  your router does something strange with the VPN  so Please upgrade your router" which is something the normal residential user don't want to hear.. and something you want to tell them..
    So SSL VPN is the way to go..
    please rate helpful posts :) 

  • Why do I have 2 iPhoto windows open?

    Why do I have 2 iPhoto windows open? When I click on the dock iPhoto app it gives me 2 iPhoto window options. Do I officially have double iPhotos or have I some how duplicated it? How can I get back to one as Im already struggling with lack of memory space!

    That screenshot is only showing you one iPhoto window - the one with the checkmark. The upper part are the recently opened libraries. You can check this by selecting "Show all windows":
    iPhoto can have more than one window open, if you launched a dialogue, for example, if you are switching between libraries, you might see this:
    Then the main application window is open, plus the dialog window:

  • Regarding the email function in Iphoto

    When I email ordinary through mail, I add a attachment in the email, then it is shown inline and as a attachment.
    But when I use the email function in iphoto it only inlines the picture, it doesnt add the file as regular attachment, is there anyway I can change that?

    the reason why I need this so you understand me.
    is that I use to blog from email.
    if I email regular no problem at all with my attachment, but if I email through iphoto my blog doesnt recognize the picture in the email so it dont get added.

  • Ringtones Play At Lesser Quality Than Text Tones

    Strange thing I am noticing.
    Ringtones on my iPhone 4S (iOS 5) play back at what sounds like a lesser quality than Text Tones.
    When selecting a "ringtone", all the tones that play back sound like a low quality audio file.
    When selecting a "text tone", the very same audio files play back in full quality.
    Just sayin.

    Thought I'd be a pest and bump this (I also replied to a related thread).
    I previously was too lazy to make my own ringtones, so when I finally got around to it last week, I noticed this inexplicable and annoying bug.  Why on EARTH would ringtones play at such horrid quality?  If Apple made its own Blu-ray player, would it play movies at VHS quality??
    I'll be VERY HAPPY when this is fixed.  Then my phone won't sound like an audio Hallmark greeting card when it rings.

  • Downstream server has less updates than the Upstream server.

    Hi, I have a DSS (Downstream server) that syncs the metadata from a USS(Upstream server) at our place. I counted the number of updates in the database using the `IsLatestRevision` field in the revision table. They are different on both the WSUS servers.
    The DSS has less updates than the USS. The query is as follows. 
    SELECT COUNT(*)
      FROM [SUSDB].[dbo].[tbRevision]
      where IsLatestRevision=1
    Is this the proper way to count the number of updates, if yes, why there is a mismatch. 
    Please help, i am confused on this. Any help appreciated.

    Hi Suraj,
    is the downstream server configured in autonomous mode (the default), or is it in replica mode? It's only in replica mode that all of the updates will be replicated.

  • SCAN_Op returns one less sample than expected.

    I'm acquiring data from a SCXI chassis using a WinXP P4 computer. Sometimes when I run my app, SCAN_Op returns one less sample than it should. Looking at the data array, it appears that one sample is missing down in the array where there should be a reading from the first channel. The rest of the readings are all shifted up by one and the first of these is garbage. The rest are correct. This only happens some of the time, but when it does, it happens no matter how many modules I'm using in the chassis (I've tried up to three at once). It also happens using just one high voltage module, As a result, the data I send to SCAN_Demux is incorrect and comes out scrambled. I've checked my inputs to the function repeatedly and am confid
    ent they are correct. I am in debug mode when this happens. So far, I haven't seen it happen in release mode. Has anyone seen this condition?

    Hello,
    I am not sure exactly what could be causing this problem. However, we could try something.
    Try allocating your memory as an i32 array that is half the size of the array that you want. This will force memory to be allocated slightly differently. Then just typecast your array whenever you need to use it.
    I know this has fixed some alignment issues in the past.
    Let us know if this does not work.
    Best regards,
