Will I need to keep CS3

Hi all,.
I am having difficulty transferring my custom web galleries from CS3 Photoshop into CS4 bridge. Have downloaded and installed the plugin and transferred my files (into what I thought was the correct directory) but still I do not see my Custom Galleries? Can anyone confirm what folder within CS4 bridge I should have transferred my files to? or could the error be somewhere else?
Regards
Tony

the custom galleries don't go into the Bridge folder. Check out my comment on this page:

My tabs will not restore after starting Firefox -- even with the option to restore my tabs and windows is checked in the "options" window. I'm losing tabs from previous sessions that I need to keep open every time I need to restart. Thanks for any advice!

Is there something else I need to tweak to get rid of this annoyance instead of simply clicking the check box? I'm losing tabs from previous sessions that I need to keep open every time I need to restart. Thanks for any advice!

Make sure that you do not use Clear Recent History to clear the <i>Browsing History</i> when you close Firefox.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Clear+Recent+History
It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js [2] file and possible sessionstore-##.js [3] files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

Yes, though if the drive is formatted as NTFS, Mac OS X will not be able to write to the drive without you either installing third-party NTFS drivers or reformatting the drive.

With itunes match live on my iOS devices, can I now remove all local music files from my PC to free up space? There's no need to keep it if it will always be in the cloud. Right?

Do I need to keep old versions of Bridge?

I've bought different versions of Creative Suite apps over time and now have an unnumbered version of Bridge, Bridge CS3, Bridge CS5 and Bridge CS5.5 on my computer. I have InDesign CS3 and CS5, Illustrator CS3 and Photoshop CS5.1 on my iMac running OS 10.7.5. Do I need to keep earlier versions to interact with CS3 versions of Illustrator? And how about Adobe Device Central?

My question is whether I can get rid of the lower-numbered versions of Bridge, Device Central and Extension Manager and, if so, what is the safe and sensible way to do it.
The answer is more or less the same, If you don't have much space problems and you may find the need to use some of the old applications just leave them where they are. If you want to tidy up just place the rarely used app in one main folder (e.g. Adobe - old) there is no need to uninstall nor is it wise to partially uninstall.
You maybe don't own a Creative Suite in total but all applications with CSxx are part of the suite its version number shows.
You can't use the uninstaller for Bridge alone per CS5, this has Bridge bundled with either PS or AI or ID. So you have to uninstall them to. removing applications to the trash manually is usually not the best thing to try. If you needed to install it instead of copy to your App folder you also have to official uninstall it for best practice.
You can use only one version at the time of Bridge while you can have multiple versions of other applications of the CS series running and active at the same time.
Ideally Bridge is the 'bridge' between those apps but due to many differences between the separate CS versions Bridge (and other apps) are not very good in working together.
Namely the start up scripts won't load or function in Bridge CS5 when the other apps don't have this same CS number. (as said, CS5 and CS5.5 might be possible) so communication with tools menu or MiniBridge will not be smooth-less or not possible at all.
You can however always use the newest Bridge as main application and choose open with and select the wanted application that shows in the list.
Don't know if this is the same for the place command because I only have CS6 on my machine and I can't check myself.
And the biggest space consumer is in your user library / caches/ Adobe / Bridge CSxx. inhere is a folder called Cache and this can grow to huge proportions if you use it a lot.
If you rarely use the older versions just keep the latest version as it is and dump the other ones.
The same as for Bridge is for the extension manager. You may need the latest version. if the others are cluttering your sight put them in the Adobe -old folder.

I am moving to Alice Springs, Australia, this summer from the U.S. I would like to get the new iPad. How can I found out if I will be able to access all the functionality in Alice? Will I need to purchase a local plan of some sort?

I am moving to Alice Springs, Australia, this summer from the U.S. I would like to get the new iPad to use while traveling back and forth from the U.S. to Australia, and within Australia. How can I found out if I will be able to access all the functionality of the iPad in Alice? Will I need to purchase a local plan of some sort? I have never owned an Apple product before -- I'm a newby!

Aside form the limitation of LTE to the 700MHz and 2.1GHz bands (which rules out LTE in Europe I gather, at least as it stands now) the new iPad should let you use a GSM 3g/2g/edge network anywhere. The CDMA Verizon model will only be able to use it's native CDMA radio band in the USA (that radio will be locked to Verizon), but it's international GSM radio is the same as the AT&T model.
Keep in mind though that by far the cheapest option when abroad is to take advantage of free wifi as much as possible (well, that is always the cheapest option, since it is free). I know several people who have taken their wifi-only iPads and iPad2s to Europe and said they did not find the lack of 3G really inconvenient at all as most towns had plenty of free or cheap wifi access all over the place.
And in 3 years, your iPad will be at least 2-3 generations behind, LTE will have already been replaced by 5G or whatever the next new generation of cellular ends up being named (and the "young" kids will be wondering what the heck 3G even means or meant - dang that stuff was from the olden days!), and you can pitch that ancient piece of technology and start things all over again

Need to do a re-format, what do i need to keep?

hi, I need to re-format my desk top computer and re-install my OS. I've got a big i-tunes library and have spent ages organising it and importing artwork so don't want to lose anything. All my music is stored on an external drive so won't be touched by the re-install.
What I want to know is what files do I need to keep in order for my I-tunes to operate in the same way after the OS re-install?
I presumed it would be the files in my c drive-> programme files -> I-tunes folder so did a dummy run by transfering these files to my laptop, and connecting my external drive and mapping it to the same letter. It didn't work.
Have I missed some files?

Copy the entire _*iTunes folder*_ in My Documents/My Music to the external.
Then copy it back after you fromat.
You can even keep it on the external and use it.
Click the icon to launch iTunes then immediately press and hold Shift.
iTunes will ask if you want to *Create new library* or *Use existing library*.
Select *Use exisiting library* and select the *iTunes library.itl* file in the *iTunes folder* you copied to the external.

Do I need to keep a local copy?

All of my music is on a single external drive.
Once itunes match upoads/match all of my music, do I need to keep the external drive connected to one of my computer?
Can I store the external drive in my safe or even trow it out and keep everything on the cloud without any local storage?
Thank You

Thank you for your response. However I am still puzzled about having to keep a local copy. To be safe, this mean that I also have to keep a backup of my local copy as well.
If you care about your data, yes you should. Redundant backup plans are what keeps data safe.

ITune Match has a copy my entire song collection as both links to my songs known to the Apple Store and cloud copies of my songs it could not match. So effectively iTunes Match has my entire 10,000 song collection but I am still forced to keep a backup of my song collection in a safe or on another cloud service like Dropbox or I risk loosing it all when my local drive eventually fails!
It's not a true copy. Think if it as a mirror. For example I purchased the recently remastered early Rush albums on CD. There was one album in each box in 24-bit, 96 kHz which I have ripped and then converted to AAC @ 256 Kbps for the highest quality AAC track I can get. Now, most of these tracks were matched to tracks in the iTunes Store (which is fine since I'm going to be listening to them on my iPhone), but they are not the same tracks that are in my iTunes library. If I had a disaster I would not be able to restore the tracks I spent to much time on, I'd have to settle for the tracks I can get from the iTunes Store. For me this is not an optimal solution, which is why I keep local backups.
If none of this is important to you, or if your other personal data is not important to you, then by all means don't backup. The choice is yours. But if you do not backup you will eventually lose data.

Backing up files on external hard drive... do I need to keep render files?

Hi, I back up all of my video work and files onto DVDs and to a Lacie external hard drive. I am filling that up quickly and would like to know if I need to keep copies of the render files, which are quite large. Will it save me that much time later? Or are they simply taking up much needed space?
thanks in advance
Rob Grossman

Welcome to the forum!
Render files can always be regenerated if needed. I dump them before backups.
If you keep your original footage on tape, the only stuff you need to back up is the FCP project file, any still images, AE files, etc. This takes VERY little space in the scheme of things.
The final quicktime video file (if that is what was created) can also be sent back to tape.
Good luck.

Do I need to keep the Capsule plugged in to my cable modem in order to use it for backup?

The location of my cable modem is really inconvenient. I'd like to move the Capsule to a different room. Do I need to keep it connected to the cable modem in order to be able to use it as my Time Machine backup device?

I assume your cable modem is a router.. as such the TC should be wired to it in bridge. It will not do anything worse than now for the network in the house.. and the TC can then be accessed as per normal.
TC is designed to be plugged into the modem or main router by ethernet.
You can move it anywhere you like in the house as long as you have ethernet connection back to the modem.
You can run the TC by wireless .. it will have the following effects.
1. Super slow backups. It will simply reduce the current wireless speed by half or more for backups.
2. Since there is no QoS your internet will stop during backups. Or near to.
3. You will affect all wireless clients during the backups.
It can work, if your backups are very small.. but the TC becomes a near to useless dumb client in the network.. ethernet ports are off, wireless becomes mere client.. so you cannot even connect directly to it.
If you try the TC in stand alone.. ie a secondary network.. that can work.
1. The computer will then have backups or internet not both. You will need to deliberately connect to the TC to get backups working. That is assuming you use wireless.
2. You can do it with ethernet. and have internet by wireless. but the setup is tricky.. tell us if you want to proceed this way.
3. The problem is, the TC now becomes useless to the whole network and is only used by one computer. You may as well have bought a cheap USB drive, which is more reliable and faster.

You have entirely too little free space on the boot drive, for best performance it's best to have hard drives only 50% filled max and never more than 80% filled.
See Storage Drive here and reduce some space also make a seperate bootable clone backup of all your data BEFORE upgrading
Most commonly used backup methods
see here for how to find your disk space
Why is my computer slow?
If you upgrade and it doesn't go right or slows the machine down you might need to erase and install, which all your programs will have to be reinstalled from original sources and files from backup.
How to erase and install Snow Leopard 10.6
If you can't do this, then hire a local PC/Mac specialist.
Do not upgrade to 10.7 or 10.8 on that older machine, it will slow down and you will lose all your PPC based programs.
Leave the Lions for a brand new machine with a SSD drive.

Do I need to keep my original photos after iPhoto imported them?

I am new to Mac so I am not sure how iPhoto handles the photos that have been imported. I assumed it was like iTunes, however I see that my iPhoto Library file is about 20 gigs, which is about the same size of all my photos.
Did it duplicate my photos and put them in the iPhoto Library?
Do I need to keep the originals?
This just seems a little odd to me if it duplicated all my files. I am now using 40 gigs of space instead of 20.
The reason for my question is I am trying to setup a second user and share the photos on each account. iTunes was no problem, just put it in the shared folder and pointed each user settings to it, but everything I read about iPhoto sharing makes it sound a lot more difficult.

What are the advantages / disadvantages to running a managed library or not?
You really, really want to use a Managed Library.
1. Importing and deleting pics are more complex procedures. You have to to put the files where they will be stored before importing them. When you delete them you'll need to remove the files from the HD yourself.
2. You cannot move or rename the files on your system or iPhoto will lose track of them on systems prior to 10.5 and iPhoto 08. Even with the later versions issues can still arise if you move the referenced files to new volumes or between volumes.
3. Most importantly, migrating to a new disk or computer can be much more complex.
4. Because iPhoto has no tools for managing Referenced Files, if, for some reason, the path to the photos changes then you could find yourself resolving aliases for +each photo in the Library+ one by one.
My own opinion:
I've yet to see a good reason to run iPhoto in referenced mode unless you're using two photo organisers

Can I lock a contact so I can't accidentally call it? I need to keep them unblocked to track calls/texts from them...

Can I lock a contact so I can't accidentally call it? I need to keep them unblocked to document their calls/texts so I can't delete them.

Yes. AIFF performs no compression so your copy will be bit for bit identical: no loss. It uses a lot of disk space too. Apple Lossless (ALAC) will compress, but also with no loss. Expect file sizes about 50% of the original.
The sample rate of 44.1 KHz is identical to that of every commercially produced audio CDs that I am aware of. There is no benefit in increasing it or attempting to "tweak" its settings.
I used Toast for many years and consider it a well designed product. I have not had any reason to upgrade to more recent versions though. If you copy the CD audio with no loss (AIFF or ALAC), then that obviates any question about sound quality since it will be identical to the original. Toast may be able to alter the sound quality but I don't advocate trying to improve upon what is essentially your only "master" - the audio CD. As I recall Toast had features such as noise reduction. That may be valuable for magnetic tape, but it's not a concern with a CD. Even very good noise reduction alters the original to some extent, and it seems to me that you want an exact duplicate. Any alteration will be contrary to your stated goal of bit-for-bit reproduction.
Don't know about Amadeus Pro.

Firefox 4 will not let me keep my bookmarks listed on the side bar. I can open them there but once I click somewhere else they go away.

Firefox 4 will not let me keep my bookmarks listed on the side bar. I can open them there but once I click somewhere else they go away. On previous Firefox versions I could display my bookmark folders down the left side of my screen and just leave them there, accessing saved bookmarks when I needed to. Now with FF4 I can open a vertical column of my bookmark folders by clicking on bookmarks in the navigation bar but this won't stay there; if I click elsewhere they disappear. I could put a bookmark toolbar on my screen but this takes up more vertical space. I have lots of horizontal space that's unused. How can I go back to the display of bookmarks in previous versions?

You can fix that by going to View -> Sidebar and click on Bookmarks.
Or you could simply use a shortcut

Just upgraded to 9.4, safari will not let me keep more than 3 windows open, if i try to open 4th, one goes away

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.
