Workflow integration with Aperture or iPhoto, and storage/deletion questions.

I have been using my iPad to download and view photos when I am travelling. I liked the fact that I could delete bad photos or do basic edits like crops and straightens in the "Photos" app and those edits would be saved when I transferred the photos to Aperture. And furthermore, the edits would be shown in Aperture as edits with the ability to revert back to the original or modify those edits later (for example if I wanted to change a crop or fine tune a straighten). This is an example of nearly perfect workflow integration, only problem is that the tools are pretty basic, for example the straighten tool requires an awkward gesture and has no control for fine tuning.
Now when I bought iPhoto for iOS I figured it would be a more advanced version of that except with more complex editing abilities. However, when I make my edits in iPhoto for iOS, no matter how I import my photos onto my mac there seems to always be two different versions of each photo rather than having both the original and the edit combined like when I edit directly in the "Photos" app. And there's no way to fine tune the edits once imported into iPhoto or Aperture like there is when I edit the photos inside of the Photos app. Is this the correct behavior, and if so, is there anyway to make iPhoto for IOS behave more like the Photos app editing mode in terms of workflow integration.
Also, I am unsure how the photos are stored in iPhoto for IOS. If I have a bunch of freshly imported photos in my "Photos" app's film roll, and then I edit them all in iPhoto for iOS, I now have two versions of each photo - one in iPhoto and one in the film roll. If I want to delete some photos to save space, can I delete all of the originals in the Film Roll and just keep the edits in iPhoto until I can sync with my Mac, or will that delete it in both places? Manually saving each edit as a new photo in the Film Roll and then deleting the original is tedious. Is the iPhoto app's library only storing the edited versions while the film roll is only storing the originals? Seems kind of like a weird way to handle things, and very unintuititive for those of us used to either iPhoto or the iOS film roll method of editing.
I'm a fairly advanced user and all of this is pretty confusing to me. It seems like I might just have to ignore iPhoto for iOS and go back to my old method of editing in the Photos app for workflow integration purposes, but I wanted to check to see if I was missing something or doing something wrong first before giving up on iPhoto for iOS.

Hello Robert. wow, dense prose...
this wil be more transversal.. hope you'll forgive me.
iPhoto has several shortcomings that other people might point out. I'll just mention a few.
when you adjust the image, using the adjustement HUD that floats around just like the one in aperture, you're making destructive pixel changes. True, iP 6 has a way of keeping the original untouched, but the two images will live separate lives (in albums, etc). Furthermore: once you move to the next picture you want to enhance, all the adjustment HUD sliders return to zero. This means that you'll never be able to return to an image and visualize the changes you made to the picture looking at the sliders. You'll have to guess. and restart from scratch.
About quality: the adjustement sliders in Aperture are waaay more subtle. iPhoto sliders impact the image in a very visible way.... as you "touch" will immprove, you might start to feel that adjusting with iPhoto is a bit gross.
File renaming: personnal opinion: don't bother. set your camera to increase numbering always... and if possible choose a meaningful prefix (few cameras allow that, the Nikon D200 does). beyond that, I don't have time for this, and don't need it... keywording images is a much more effective way of making them easier to locate. my own view. others will disagree.
duplicates: lots of people have identified this shortcoming in aperture. considering in version 1.5 they took the time to be able to identify referenced masters in a pretty comprehensive way (using a bunch of data like name+ date/time of capture to reconnect to a lost master), I'd be really surprised if the next major version doesn't fix that.
Aperture accepts to import/reference your iPhoto folder but I don't think the former will see changes made in the latter..?
just a few ideas.... HTH

Are you able to start up in Safe Mode?
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1455?viewlocale=en_US
If this works you will see the normal desktop Once completely started up in Safe Mode, try to restart normally and go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility. Click on the top hard drive icon in the left sidebar and note the S.M.A.R.T. status at the bottom right of the pane. What does it say?
Select the named boot volume in the left sidebar, ("Macintosh HD" unless it has been renamed). What is the hard drive capacity and how much space remains available on it? Repair permissions on it.
See if you are able to do a little hard drive maintenance to help things out.

Please help with iLife integration with Aperture?!?!

I have "shared previews" turned on in aperture. But when I load iphoto ('11), I don't see anything. I have the aperture update (3.1). When I click "see aperture library" - I just see a gob of my thousands of photos. I want to open iphoto and be able to browse by project/album/faces/etc. How do I do this?? Thanks!!

but is there a way for iphoto to "mirror" my aperture library
No.
Aperture and iPhoto are entirely different applications that work in very different ways.
The only communication between the two is as follows:
Aperture is able to parse the iPhoto Library to allow it to import the contents while stacking the Originals and Modified versions, preserving metadata and so forth.
Aperture can share its Previews with the iLife apps, including iPhoto.
That's it.
So, specifically, what interaction there is between the two is designed to facilitate migration from iPhoto to the more powerful app. After that, iPhoto has exactly the same relationship to the Aperture Library as, say, Pages or iMovie.

Linking iPhoto and Aperture., Linking iPhoto and Aperture.

So, I have done all the obvious things and after multiple years with iPhoto, am struggling with Aperture, but I'll get there. I want to retain iPhoto as a browser for my family, and use Aperture primarily for adjustments. Now, I can open iPhoto files direct in Aperture, but how do I save the new version to iPhoto easily? I can export to desktop then drag in, but I had almost expected the new version that I am adjusting in Aperture to save direct to iPhoto.
Second question....I've seen comments about dragging new projects direct into iPhoto as either a file or say, slideshow. Is this just a drag and drop operation with both iPhoto and Aperture browsers open or is there a very elegant way I'm missing?

Now, I can open iPhoto files direct in Aperture, but how do I save the new version to iPhoto easily? I can export to desktop then drag in, but I had almost expected the new version that I am adjusting in Aperture to save direct to iPhoto.
You can't. Aperture is not an External Editor for iPhoto. It's a database, like iPhoto and is a complete replacement for iPhoto. Simply, the scenario you have is not part of the Aperture toolkit.

SAP Workflow integrated with Microsoft Outlook

Hello All,
I have the following question. When an work item comes in the SBWP inbox, as soon as the work item is executed by the user
the workitem disappears from the SBWP. Now my question is if SAP Workflow is integrated with Microsoft Outlook (so that email containing the work item as a link reaches Outlook), is there a way to make the email disappear from the Outlook as soon as the SAP work item is completed.
Can someone throw some light on the same.
Thanks,
Sachin

Hi,
Duet workflow scenario is available. SAP Application sends workitem to Duet Server and Outlook client has Duet add-in. You need Duet Server and user license.
Also SAP MAPI Service Provider is available. You can access SAP Inbox items from your outlook client. I think SAP MAPI Service provider is free.

Need Urgent Help on Meeting Place Integration with CUCM 7.1 and AS5400 PSTN Gateway

Hi,
This is first time I am on this forum.
I have already tried going through a lot of docs on docwiki.cisco.com but couldn't find complete configuration help.
I have to integrate Meeting Place 8.X with an existing CUCM and an E1 gateway (PSTN Gateway) AS5400.
The CUCM is already part of a Telepresence Environment. I need to create a SIP trunk between AS5400 and CUCM 7.1 and then create a Trunk between AS5400 and Cisco Unified MP 8.X and then between CUMP and CUCM.
I need help on AS5400 SIP Configs as well as parameters I need to cover on CUCM (Though I have done some basic dial-peer configs but they haven't been of much help).
Then I also need help on AS5400 SIP configs with CUMP 8.0
Any docs on Integration between CUMP and TP3000 will be of great help too.
Rgds,
Asim

I can get the Ricoh to register as sip endpoint, it answeres then imediatly disconnects. Doing a monitor with Wireshark looks like it attempts to negotiate t38 but fails. Any idea why this fails?

SSRS 2012 integrated with Sharepoint 2013, subscription and impersonation

Hello,
We are configuring SSRS 2012 integrated with Sharepoint 2013. The reports are connecting to SSAS cubes via shared Datasources. We have defined user based roles and security in the cubes and would like to pass the effective username to the cubes when they
access data via reports.
Also we need to create subscriptions on these reports to run on either daily/weekly or monthly schedule and send email to a list of users.
How do we configure our Datasources on sharepoint so both could be acheived.
Our Database and Sharepoint are on different servers.
Thanks
Deepak

Hi Deepak
For your first question:
while configuring the datasource in SharePoint, check the option 'Set execution context to this account' in the settings. This will pass the effective user name to the cubes.
Thanks

Integration with Apple's iPhoto

I create a lot of personal items with InDesign, as well as commercial ones. With my personal ones especially, I would really like a way to select photos that are stored in Apple's iPhoto, something very similar to Apple's Media Browser found in Apple's apps. Heck! Just put the Media Browser in ID.
I know, Adobe made something called the Mini Bridge in ID; but, I am so familiar with Apple's interface and like it so much better, I would really like it to look like Apple's browser. Also, the Mini Bridge does not really link to iPhoto. If I browse to the iPhoto library in Mini Bridge and double-click in the iPhoto library, iPhoto opens, instead of showing me the photos in the app.
I know Adobe is loathe to present a Mac-only feature; but, they should get over that. They could do something similar on the PC, say, with a direct link to the PC's Pictures folder.

I don't know about iPhoto, but ...

... I have seen a demonstration from Kinect on regular Windows computers. What if Adobe added a nifty "Kinect-only" feature to InDesign, say, something like Minority Report shuffling of objects -- and the 'similar' function for Mac users would be, "well, you can't do that but you can toggle the layers on the top off and then move selected objects with the mouse and then toggle the layers on again as a workaround"?
Platform-independency is good -- if only because it diminishes the chance of odd OS related bugs. (Remember those? Back in the days, when there were separate fora for Windows and Mac?)
But of course, there is nothing against a 3rd party (Mac-only) plugin that'd integrate iPhoto; that would be, by definition, only useful for Mac users.

CRM TPM - Integration with R/3, APO and BW -Documentation

Anyone have any documentation how to integrate the campaigns with R/3 Project System in order to create WBS elements? Today we have in Controlling a solution with Controlling orders. Now we have to have WBS elements in R/3 that integrate with the CRM solution and R/3 Controlling orders.
We also have to integrate with APO - demand Planning.
Do you know any project in a consumer products industry with this solution?

Iphoto and photobooth deleted!! :(

i need help asap!! my mac was saying that my startup disk was getting full, so i decided to delete as many photos as possible. in doing so, i accidentally deleted iphoto and photobooth by moving them to the trash, and emptying it. i need the fastest way possible that won't take up a lot of space on my laptop to get them back. also if anyone knows any ways to free up some space i would appreciate it a lot!
Thanks so much!!

Whoa.
If you're hard disk is getting so full that you're getting messages you have a major crisis and you need to deal with it first.
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on. Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.

I deleted nodes with the web developer and the deletion has become permanent. How to undo?

I was trying to remove all the "Recommended Pages" etc. garbage on the right-hand side of Facebook and got a little click happy with 'delete nodes' using the Web Dev tools - as cathartic as it was! :)
Now it seems as though I have broken FB on Firefox (seems to work fine on IE, surprisingly) as pics seem to be missing and the left-hand menu as well - but, of course the stuff I was trying to rid myself of comes back just fine ... sigh.
I've read that all changes are supposed to be temporary until you restart the browser but this hasn't helped at all and I did try unchecking the 'Use hardware acceleration when available' that I read somewhere else, to no avail.
Any assistance that can be rendered would be very much appreciated.
For the record, I've learned my lesson and won't futz around with this anymore! :)

For a node deletion in the Inspector tool,revert that by reloading the page. If that isn't working for you, you could try Command+Shift+r to reload the page bypassing the cache.
You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox Profile Folder that store session data.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
HT > Profile Directory: Open Containing 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).

Org management (integration with SAP ECC 6) and shopping cart approval

Background:
We currently use EBP 3.0 - Classic Scenario.
Our current Organisational plan was manually created in EBP, and is not the same as the HR hierarchy in SAP ECC 6
Shopping cart approvals use the workflow WS10000276 u2013 Approval Single Level over Limit, which utilises the SLAPPROVER attribute. The user name assigned to the SLAPPROVER attribute does not have to be the manager of the user. To meet our Business requirements, a fairly flat structure was created at the time we implemented EBP 3.0. The approval level an approver is allowed to approve up to is controlled with the use of roles assigned to a user. Each of the approval roles has an appropriate value set against the BBP_APPROVAL_LIMIT attribute under Personalisation.
Moving onu2026
We are just about to move from EBP 3.0 to SRM 7.0 u2013 Classic Scenario - by carrying out a new installation.
Our Business requirement has changed, in that they want the approval of shopping carts to be carried out by the line manager, if that person can approve the value of the shopping cart. If not, for the approval to go up the HR hierarch until a manager with a suitable level of approval is found.
I believe it is possible to create the Organisational structure in SRM from the HR hierarchy in SAP ECC 6. I have tried to do this in our play/test system using - Integration Business Partner-Organizational Management, without much success as yet!
I have a few questions in this area:
1.     Not all of the users in the SAP ECC 6 HR hierarchy will be SRM users. E.g. In the SAP
             hierarchy there are 3 users u2013 User A, User B and User C. User B is the manager of User
             A and User C is the manager of user B. In SRM only User A and User C are users. That
             being the case, is it still possible to initially create the organisational in SRM from SAP ECC6?
2.     If it is possible to create the organisational structure as described, then using Process
             Controlled Workflow we could use the Shopping Cart BC Set One-step manager approval.
     If we did this, what would be the best way to incorporate the approval limit of a manager?
     Can this be simply achieved by setting the BBP_APPROVAL_LIMIT attribute in conjunction
             with the One step manager approval?
     We want to avoid having to use the SLAPPROVER attribute due to the high level of
             maintenance we currently experience.
Thanks to anyone who can advise me.

Workflow Integration with IFS

I was wondering how we get iFS connected with workflow "the easy way".
Standard you get in workflow 2 examples of document management systems whereto you can connect but no iFS.
So I was wondering If anybody here already did this integration,
I guess I could start developing it myself but if sombody already did this and is
willing to share his/here experiences it's better for both parties.
Feel free to contact me for additional questions

Workflow Integration with OID - wfdircsv.sql query

Hi all,
According to Workflow Guide Release 2.6.2 & metalink note 207225.1, when setting up OID integration you need to run the wfdircsv.sql script. This script sets the mappings of directory service views only to the WF_LOCAL tables.
However, because only the WF_LOCAL_USERS table is syncronised with OID, is it enough to ensure that WF_USERS only maps to its WF_LOCAL equivalent and not WF_ROLES?
This way we could leave WF_ROLES to map to other areas on our database, in addition to the union with WF_USERS and WF_LOCAL_ROLES. This is important to us because we have an exisiting dba_roles table that we want to union with.
Any ideas or inputs on whether this is possible would be much appreciated.
Paul.

Paul,
You have multiple options:
1. Create the DBA roles as OID groups and use metalink note 210796.1 to synch OID groups.
2. You can create ad-hoc roles for the dba roles and assign users to that role (Check the guide for the API)
3. You can create custom directory service (Check the user's guide), but this option is not supporable.
Hope this helps..
