In this connection, my Applications in Disk X says No Image Capture device is connected. What can I do please?

From there you can import them into iPhoto.

Re: iPhoto question ?
Paul, You may be able to get at them this way : System Preferences - Hardware : Cd's DVD's ... Look for When you insert a Picture CDand select ignore The camera should show up as a device like a hard drive on your desktop . You should then be able to find the index and select the photo's you want . If you need to open the file try ... Open ... in Apple's Preview . This is all presuming your photo's are in an acceptable format and the camera can be read by your OS . The alternative is to take the memory card out of the Camera and find a reader that it will fit. If you are still in trouble please tell the list what make and model Camera .

usb floppy drives
I have a library of old floppies. Yesterday afternoon I spent several hours transferring floppies to my Performa with the intent of shifting them to my iMac for burning on CDs. I've hardly scratched the surface and thought the purchase of usb floppy drive might be a sensible alternative. Has anyone used these devices? Do they read 2DD floppies (800k) as well as 2HD (1.44k)? Advice appreciated. Merv -- Science teaches that we must see in order to believe, but we must also believe in order to see.

iTunes prefs?
When I import CDs I like to include the composer year fields but the default iTunes views does not show these fields when a new CD is inserted - so the info is not downloaded from the online database unless I first go to view options and select these fields. The trouble is these selected fields do not stick as the default when inserting a CD and I'm getting really bored with manually selecting the view options for every new CD. I've checked out all the preferences and even iTunes help but can't seem to find any way to include these fields into the default view when a new CD is inserted. I'm sure there MUST be an easy way to do this? Any suggestions? TIA Neil -- Neil R. Houghton Albany, Western Australia Tel: +61 8 9841 6063 Fax: +61 8 9841 6137 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hard Drive for PowerBook
Hi I have a 1.25 GHz G4 PowerBook with 80 GB HD. 10.3.9 I just can't cope with the lack of space. I have deleted thousands of photos and a third of my iTunes library as well as all my movies. (keeping full copies of iphoto and itunes on the family iMac) I still only have 5GB of free space. Please can anyone advise: is it possible to install a larger HD? If so, rough costs?

iPhoto question.
Could I ask a question of the group. When you have found a photo using the search facility how do you then find that photo in the main library? Mac

Re: iPhoto question ?
No, I have not made myself clear. I want to find a particular photo in iPhoto and I use the search facility. I find it, and I then want to know where it is,physically, in the library.

I change the Edit View Options after the CD shows in iTunes then I import the CD. I haven't tried this AppleScript, but it might help you. http://www.dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/scripts06.php? page=2#assimilateviewoptions This script re-creates your playlists (excepting Smart Playlists) then deletes the old ones so all of the View Options are the same as the main library (taking advantage of the fact that new playlists acquire the library's View Options).
